Mizzou events spur KU town hall on race

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Prompted by the past week’s race-fueled crisis at the University of Missouri, Kansas University is planning a town hall meeting to talk about race, respect and responsibility.

The meeting is set for 4 p.m.

Wednesday at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union, 1301 Jayhawk Blvd., KU announced Monday afternoon.

In light of events at MU and other universities nationwide, the meeting “is designed to be an open conversation among students, faculty and staff on the topics of race and inclusion, as well as respect and responsibility,” according to KU’s announcement.

“The goal is to create an affirming space for voices from a number of communities and backgrounds to be heard and considered.”

Moderating the forum will be Tam-

mara Durham, KU’s vice provost for student affairs. Vice provost for diversity and equity Nathan Thomas also will attend. The Office of Student Affairs and the Office of Diversity and Equity are organizing the meeting in conjunction with the Office of Multicultural Affairs.

A Lawrence man is being held in the Douglas County Jail on a $1 million bond following allegations of sex crimes and four aggravated burglaries Saturday night in the 800 blocks of Missouri, Maine and Alabama streets.

The man, 36, has been charged with four counts of aggravated burglary, two counts of aggravated sodomy, one count of rape, four counts of agCOURTS gravated assault and one count of criminal threat.

He was arrested after allegedly entering at least four residences in central Lawrence late Saturday, said Lawrence police spokeswoman Kim Murphree.

Common Core education standards — were presented at the Lawrence school board meeting Monday evening. The State Board of Education in 2010 adopted the Common Core standards, which zero in on critical thinking skills and whether students are prepared for college or the workplace by the time they graduate from high school.

Vanessa Sanburn, president of the school board, said she thinks the Common Core emphasis on critical thinking will be good for schools.

“The change to public education because of Common Core is definitely a wider look at the ability of students,” she said. “It gives us more to teach.”

The format of the test is different from previous assessments, and instead of selecting the answer from a list, the computerized test requires students to order items, create categories, label areas, plot graphs and select multiple responses, according to the Kansas State Department of Education.

In both reading and math, assessments were given in grades three

through eight and grade 10. In reading, an average of about 83 percent of students in those seven grades performed at or above grade level, but about 49 percent were not on track to be ready for college or careers. In math, an average of about 80 percent of students in those seven grades performed at or above grade level, but about 60 percent were not on track to be ready for college or careers.

On the new assessment, student performance is categorized within one of four levels: Level 1, below grade level expectations; Level 2, at grade level but not yet on track for college or career readiness; Level 3, at grade level and on track for college or career readiness; and Level 4, exceeds grade level expectations and on track for college or career readiness.

Terry McEwen, director of curriculum, instruction and assessment for the school district, presented the district’s test results to the school board at Monday’s meeting. McEwen stressed that results don’t define a student as a certain level, and are instead just one measurement at a specific point in time.

“These four levels represent a learning continuum,” he told the board.

“The state is not making

any claim that because you scored at a Level 2 two in third grade, you will always be a Level 2.”

Because the assessment is different, results cannot be compared with past years, and instead the results from the 2014-15 tests establish a baseline of performance, McEwen said. Instead, he expects results will get better, not because teachers will teach to the test, but because they’ll understand better what is being asked of students.

Statewide scores in reading and math tests were released in September showing that most Kansas students are performing at or above grade level but few are on track to be ready for college or careers by the time they graduate from high school.

School board members also agreed to take an official position against a shooting range that is proposed for a location across 31st Street from the district’s new Lawrence College and Career Center, 2910 Haskell Ave., and proposed site for the future Boys & Girls Club Teen Center. The Douglas County Planning commission is scheduled to review the proposal at its meeting next Monday.

The next school board will be 7 p.m. Nov. 23 at the district offices, 110 McDonald Drive.

cording to Student Union Activities.

There were about 275 people in line at the Lied Center when the box office there opened at 11 a.m. for members of the public to get tickets.

The Lied Center distributed roughly 600 tickets, running out shortly after noon, according to Makayla Hipke, spokeswoman for the Dole Institute of Politics.

The Dole Center is holding a block of tickets back for donors and Student Advisory Board members, and some of those are expected to be made available to the public Nov. 18, Hipke said. They will be distributed through the Lied Center box office, and more details will be available later, Hipke said.

Monday’s lines did not compare to the thousands of students and community members who lined up to get tickets to see President Barack Obama deliver remarks on campus in January.

KU students Daniel Nick, a junior from Chicago, and Michael Utt, a ju-

nior from Lenexa, arrived at the Union about 8 a.m.

Nick said he was excited to see Clinton, “starting with the fact that he’s a terrific public speaker.”

Also, Nick said, Clinton is a former U.S. president who’s high-profile right now because of wife Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

Utt, who said he saw Obama in January, said he looked forward to Clinton’s appearance, too.

“It’s a real experience seeing a president in person,” he said.

At the Lied Center, Lawrence High School teacher Shannon Draper was one of the first people waiting in line, along with some of her AP English students.

“He was the first president that I voted for, so I’m really excited to see him,” Draper said.

Draper is also a student of Clinton’s speeches and at least one of them has been part of a class curriculum for her high school students.

“Rhetorically,” Draper said, “he’s one of the most intelligent presidents we’ve ever had.”

gravated sodomy counts and one rape count, all level one felonies — are punishable by up to 653 months, or more than 54 years, in prison. Two victims were involved, according to court documents. Further details on the circumstances of the alleged sex crimes were not available Monday.

Prior to his arrest, the man was under postrelease supervision for a 2011 charge of aggravated battery in Wyandotte County, said Deborah Moody, Douglas County assistant district attorney. He also had some juvenile offenses on his record, she said.

Moody requested that Douglas County Judge Pro Tem James T. George issue a $1 million bond.

“These are extremely egregious crimes that have been alleged, and we feel that he is a danger to the community,” Moody said.

In the event that the man did manage to make bond, Moody requested that he not be allowed contact with any victims, or to return to the 600900 blocks of Missouri or Maine streets. He would also be monitored with a GPS device.

When asked if he had any comments about the bond, the man said he “figured it’d be pretty unreasonable.”

Murphree said the man was also arrested on suspicion of aggravated kidnapping and kidnapping.

He was not charged with either. The investigation is ongoing.

The man is scheduled for a second court appearance at 2 p.m. today.

George appointed Lawrence attorney Branden Smith to represent the man.

y the time McCollum Hall implodes — an event now set for 9 a.m. Nov. 25 — there will be a lot less to the building than there was when it was home to more than 900 students.

A drive by the largest residence hall on Daisy Hill reveals gaping windows, holes in the walls and piles of construction debris around the building.

A lot of pre-demolition work has taken place at McCollum since its last student residents moved out in the spring, and work will continue in the coming weeks to whittle it down even more.

Early on, KU found new homes for portraits of the building’s namesakes, Elmer and Burton McCollum, and removed furniture for donation.

Asbestos abatement has now been completed in the building, KU spokeswoman Erinn Barcomb-Peterson said Monday.

Aid authorized for refugees in Wichita schools

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback and legislative leaders on Monday approved spending about $4.2 million in additional money for school districts to cover certain extraordinary needs, including $366,804 to help the Wichita school district absorb an influx of refugee children.

The approvals by the State Finance Council represent substantially less than those districts requested.

Wichita in particular had asked for $980,000 to cover the cost of refugees that have been pouring into the district, including 92 just since last fall. The district wanted to hire eight additional classroom teachers, eight paraprofessionals, two counselors and a number of specialized English

“

We know we need to serve these students, to give them intensive language supports, because they’re going to be citizens of our country and we want them to be very successful.”

— Diane Gjerstad, lobbyist for Wichita schools language specialists to work with the children.

Diane Gjerstad, who lobbies for Wichita schools, said many of the new refugee students have never been in a school setting before, and most require special intensive instruction in English.

“We know we need to serve these students, to give them intensive language supports, because they’re going to be citizens of our country and we want them to be very successful,” Gjerstad said.

Wichita is seeing more of an influx of refugees,

primarily from war-torn countries in Africa and the Middle East, because there are two social service agencies there that work specifically to relocate refugee populations.

District officials said that in addition to the 92 refugee students who have arrived since the district’s last enrollment count, they are expecting another 145-150 students over the coming year.

Kimsey said that once each year, state departments of education can apply for what’s called “school impact aid” for refugees, but the Kansas

State Department of Education hasn’t applied for that since the early 2000s, and it is now too late for Kansas to apply for funds this year.

Sen. Ty Masterson, RAndover, who chairs the Senate Ways and Means Committee, said he believes it should be the federal government’s job to pay the additional education costs of refugees.

“It appears to me this situation has been put on the Kansas taxpayer without their knowledge or even the knowledge of their representatives,” Masterson said.

“It would be nice if Congress would treat the whole family ... K-12 dollars, plus the relocation money,” Gjerstad said.

The funding the Finance Council approved represents the additional amount of block grant money Wichita would have received for the 92

students who have already arrived. But the council declined to authorize any additional money for the expected future influx.

The Legislature set aside $12.3 million this year for districts that had extraordinary increases in enrollment, declines in property value, or other special circumstances that affect their general fund budgets. The money came from reducing every school district’s block grant this year by 0.4 percent.

The process has been criticized by some school advocates who say it requires school officials to take time off and travel to Topeka to request money that many think should have been part of their base state funding.

Board decries new high school sports recruitment bill

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — The Kansas State Board of Education said Monday it wants to clamp down on the practice of high schools recruiting athletes from home schools and private schools, and it plans to oppose a bill in the Kansas Legislature that would make such activities permissible.

Gary Musselman, executive director of the Kansas State High School Activities Association, told the board that Senate Bill 60, which was introduced in the 2015 session, “is the biggest challenge on our horizon.”

“We’re educators first,” Musselman said while delivering the association’s annual report to the board. “We’re not entertainment. We’re not

It would provide that any student who is a resident of a school district must be allowed to participate in any activities the school district offers, regardless of whether the student attends a school in that school district full time.

It passed the Senate in February, 30-9, and was sent to the House for consideration. It was never acted upon by the House Education Committee, but it remains alive for the 2016 session.

It was intended to benefit home-school students whose families still pay taxes to their local public schools, even though they don’t send their children to those schools.

Sen. Forrest Knox, R-Altoona, spoke in favor of the

bill during a House committee hearing, along with many parents who homeschool their children. According to the minutes of that meeting, Knox argued that rural areas have few opportunities available outside the public school system for parents of students not enrolled in the public schools on a fulltime basis.

But Musselman argued that such a law would be similar to requiring state universities to allow any college-age Kansan to play on their sports teams, even if they are not enrolled at the school.

State board member Deena Horst, R-Salina, said she has heard repeated concerns, none of which she could confirm, that some high schools have been recruiting students from home schools or small private schools by

allowing them to enroll in just one class per day.

Musselman acknowledged that is a concern, but he said the Kansas association lacks the resources to investigate such claims.

“Unlike some of my colleagues in other states, I have never hired a private investigator to go sit on a kid’s house,” Musselman said. “Sometimes, I wish I could.”

Later in the meeting, board Chairman Jim McNiece, R-Wichita, said that should be one of the nonbudget issues that the board takes to the Legislature next year.

“It was pretty farreaching,” McNiece said of the bill.

On other issues, board member Janet Waugh, DKansas City, said the board should take a stand on a proposal aimed at prevent-

ing conflicts of interest on local school boards by barring anyone from serving on a local board if he or she works for a company that does business with the district, is employed by another district or has a sibling or parent who is employed by any district in the state.

Deputy Education Commissioner Dale Dennis told the board that the bill, House Bill 2345, was halted by legislative leaders last year and will probably undergo major revisions before it’s considered next year.

And Horst said she wants to urge lawmakers to provide additional funding and resources for guidance counselors, which she said will be critical to meeting the new vision for education that Commissioner Randy Watson unveiled last month.

tional and out-of-state students, as well as revenue generated by some of the facilities, including a new Student Union annex to replace the Burge Union, a new residence hall and new apartments.

She also insisted that KU would not hike tuition for in-state students beyond the normal tuition increases in order to pay for the projects.

Most of those projects will be in a 40-acre area near 19th and Iowa streets.

The plan calls for a new

science and engineering facility to replace Malott Hall, which Gordzica said is woefully outdated.

“Our science facilities were built before we put a man on the moon,” she said. “At best they’re outdated. At worst, they’re obsolete and unsafe. There are high schools that have better science teaching facilities than (KU) has.”

Gordzica said the financing plan is similar to those used on other projects at KU, and at other universities in Kansas,

and they are specifically authorized under Kansas statutes.

She said KU plans to finance the Central District and Innovation Way projects over 40 years, with annual payments estimated at about $21.5 million.

But Rep. Ron Ryckman, R-Overland Park, who chairs the House Appropriations Committee, said the P-3 financing has never been used on a project this large, and he said in the past universities have sought legislative ap-

proval before embarking on such a massive development plan.

“I believe you’ve found a way to make this be viable,” he said. “But the process making this viable is outside of what we typically see. And we all know who’s ultimately responsible when something goes wrong, and so we’d like a chance to review this.”

The budget panel took no action Monday, but indicated that lawmakers would continue to monitor KU’s plans.

seconds; however, the atmosphere will be very dusty for 10 to 15 minutes following the implosion,” KU cautioned in a press release about the upcoming implosion.

“Those with respiratory ailments should take precautions.”

McCollum, located at 1800 Engel Road, opened in the spring semester of 1965, according to KU. Its original capacity was 910 students, both men and women.

McCollum has three wings, 10 residential floors and a basement.

Two new residence halls, Oswald and Self, were constructed to replace McCollum. They opened to students in August.

When McCollum is leveled, the area will be turned into a surface parking lot, according to KU. The university’s master plan calls for additional future development in the area, including mixed-use buildings with both oncampus housing and retail space.

will begin the process of revising Horizon 2020.

Some of the changes, including those regarding retail development, development incentives and the city’s growth, echo recent discussions among city commissioners or are related to items that will soon be brought before the commission.

A few of the proposed updates to Horizon 2020 involve creating more availability for retail in areas that are already developed.

One of the provisions includes the city studying incentives to encourage the redevelopment of existing retail areas. The report states retail should be fostered “in locations that best fit the community and utilize the community’s existing infrastructure and investments.”

Another update asks city staff to modify the city’s land development code to increase opportunities for small neighborhood retail to be incorporated within the existing development pattern.

There has been debate in the city about the size and location of new retail developments after a development group last year proposed a 500,000-squarefoot shopping center for the

interchange at the South Lawrence Trafficway and Iowa Street.

Concerns about the proposal brought up by residents and at least one city commissioner include whether the city can sustain new commercial developments and whether they would pull shoppers from downtown. Those concerns are indirectly addressed in the updates to Horizon 2020.

According to the report on changes to the document, Lawrence residents “placed an emphasis on maintaining downtown as a strong and stable part of the economy and culture of Lawrence.”

Encouraging public and private investment in downtown and development of the riverfront were both listed as new items to include in Horizon 2020.

The report also asks that the city ensure there is “socially and economically responsible growth of urban areas.”

Other proposed changes to the comprehensive plan are related to job growth, affordable housing, transportation and arts and culture.

The City Commission meets at 5:45 p.m. at City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St.

KU says it’s trying to minimize the amount of waste being taken to the landfill as much as possible. Concrete and masonry also will be crushed and used for gravel fill for parking lots, roads and other projects.

Also this week, crews are drilling holes in which to place explosives into columns on the first, second, fifth and sixth floors, Barcomb-Peterson said.

When the day comes that those explosives will be detonated, a 600-foot “evacuation perimeter” will be enforced between 8:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m., according to KU. That will include barricading roads around 19th and Iowa streets.

KU has designated a public viewing area: the Oliver Hall parking lot at 19th Street and Naismith Drive, though no activities are planned and the hall will not be open to the public.

“Some of the things in the public’s mind have changed a little bit, and we want to make sure it is what the public envisioned it to be — not what they envisioned 20 years ago,” he said. “It just needs freshened up to get it ready for a longer life.”

After more than a year of public surveys, open houses and other discussion and research, the Horizon 2020 Steering Committee voted unanimously Aug. 31 to send forward 19 items that need to be studied and changed.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Committee voted 9-0 on Sept.

21 to advance the changes to the city and county commissions.

The City Commission will review and vote today on a report that lists the changes. Because Horizon 2020 also pertains to unincorporated Douglas County, county commissioners will also vote on the report at their Wednesday meeting.

If both bodies approve the updates and adopt a joint resolution to coordinate the changes, city staff

BRIEFLY Trial rescheduled in teen’s shooting A trial for a man accused of shooting a teenage boy just southwest of Lawrence High School has been rescheduled.

Anthony Jermaine Taylor, 19, of Lawrence, was arrested Sept. 18 after allegedly running up to a 16-year-old Lawrence boy in his driveway at 4:30 a.m., striking him with a 9mm handgun and shooting him as he tried to run away, according to the affidavit supporting Taylor’s arrest. Taylor is charged with felony aggravated battery.

The trial was scheduled to begin Nov. 16. At a status conference Monday, Taylor’s attorney, Elbridge Griffy IV, requested a continuation, saying he is waiting on “a very relevant discovery” involving DNA testing of the weapon used in the alleged incident.

Chief Douglas County District Judge Robert Fairchild allowed the trial to be continued until Jan. 27.

Griffy said during the conference that he had not heard about a plea deal.

However, prosecutor C.J. Rieg said she sent him one.

The victim in the case was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for treatment Sept. 18 and released the same day.

Taylor is being held in the Douglas County Jail on a $75,000 bond.

Offender released, may face deportation A 36-year-old Lawrence man convicted of a child sex crime was released from jail Monday morning to the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said Sgt. Kristen Dymacek, spokeswoman for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.

Hermelindo Cano Espinobarros pleaded no contest last month to indecent liberties with a Espinobarros child, and on Friday, Douglas County District Judge Paula Martin sentenced him to 18 months’ probation.

He was released from the jail with time-served credit, but he is not a legal resident of the United States. Prosecutor Mark Simpson told Martin Friday that it was his “understanding that (Espinobarros) will be deported,” the JournalWorld reported.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice, a federal immigration judge will be the ultimate authority in deciding whether Espinobarros should be sent to his native Mexico.

If deported, it would be a federal crime if he ever re-enters the country, Simpson said.

West Lawrence fire displaces family A fire at a west Lawrence home Monday night has displaced the family that lives there.

Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Division Chief Eve Tolefree said crews were dispatched at 8:58 p.m. Monday to a fire at two-story reverse ranch style home at 1135 Stone Meadows Drive. They found heavy fire and smoke emitting from the garage area, she said.

All of the people who live in the house got out uninjured; however, their dog died in the fire. No firefighters were injured while extinguishing the flames.

Tolefree said the Douglas County chapter of the American Red Cross is assisting the residents.

The department had not started the investigation phase as of late Monday, and the cause and estimated cost of damages will likely not be known until later this morning.

Sports’ influence Misdeeds at the University of Missouri must be corrected, but the situation raises the question about who is in charge.

If anyone questions or doubts the power and influence of athletics in today’s politically correct society, all they have to do is take a look at what happened in Columbia, Mo., at the University of Missouri.

Various stories and reports have surfaced in recent months about racial slurs and actions on the MU campus, causing a student to start a hunger strike, students to camp out on the campus and protesters to demand that MU president Tim Wolfe step aside or be fired.

This triggered a number of news stories, but it wasn’t until the 32 AfricanAmerican members of the university’s football team threatened to not engage in any of the teams’ activities until the president was ousted, one way or another, that the story exploded into a national/international situation.

It’s questionable whether 32 outstanding MU faculty members, 32 National Merit students or 32 individuals of any campus group of any color, threatening to go on strike or not perform their jobs or duties would have the impact of the 32 African-American football players. By the way, 41 of the 53 players on the MU team’s offensive and defensive depth charts are African American. So, with 32 of the players sitting out of any team activities, the MU Tigers’ football program would come to a halt.

This action or threat worked, with the university president stepping down Monday morning.

The MU situation is ugly and damaging to the university.

There are many sides or issues involved with the Missouri situation, and racial injustices are wrong and should be corrected as soon as possible. However, it also raises the question of who runs a university: a high-profile football or basketball team and the coach, or the regents or those on a board of overseers?

What are the next demands of the football team, and do they expect to play a role in the selection of the next president?

The MU case is likely to be copied on other university campuses.

Prior to his Monday morning resignation, the MU president said he and his associates had been working on a major overhaul of the issues raised by the protestors and would be announcing a plan in April. It is questionable if the April date was not soon enough, if the protestors didn’t believe the president, or if the possible cancellation of next Saturday’s nationally televised football game in Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium against Brigham Young University was the determining factor in the president’s resignation.

Wrongs are wrong and must be corrected.

Based on the Missouri situation, the best way to attract attention and get immediate results is to use football and basketball teams rather than the conventional and outdated governance systems.

A murder that shook the world Israelis have been debating whether the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin, 20 years ago this month, has irrevocably altered the course of Israeli (and Mideast) history.

My answer is yes. To understand the profound consequences of Rabin’s murder, one need only contrast this military hero and his era with the life and times of Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu, who has held the prime ministership for nearly 10 of the 20 years since Rabin’s murder, and will visit the White House this week. “(The year) 1995 was a reset moment in Israel’s history, a shift from secular pragmatists to ideologues,” says Dan Ephron, author of Killing a King: the Assassination of Rabin and the Remaking of Israel.

That gap was on full display in Israel in recent days.

Back on Nov. 4, 1995, when a 25-year-old religious student named Yigal Amir assassinated their leader, Israelis were shocked at the idea that such fanaticism existed in their society. Amir killed Rabin because he had signed the Oslo peace accords with Yasir Arafat, which aimed to create a Palestinian state on land that Amir believed God had earmarked for Israel. (Rabin had also signed a peace treaty with Jordan in 1994 and came achingly close to achieving a peace pact with Syria.)

At the time, there was much criticism of Netanyahu, then an opposition leader, who had presided over rallies where participants waved banners depicting Rabin in a Nazi uniform.

But today, such ideas have gone mainstream. “The

Let me be clear: We will never know whether Rabin could have made the Oslo process work or persuaded Arafat to make the necessary compromises.” people who wanted to stop Oslo at any price are now in government,” says Ori Nir, spokesman for Americans for Peace Now, referring to members of Netanyahu’s hard-right cabinet who call for annexing most or all of the West Bank. Some senior government officials even demand the building of a third Jewish temple on the Temple Mount — holy to both Jews and Muslims — which would turn the Israeli-Palestinian conflict over land into a religious war.

Netanyahu opposed the Oslo accords and never believed two states were possible.

His government has promoted settlement growth on the West Bank, which rules out any coherent Palestinian entity.

subsequent negotiations, while Palestinian terror attacks in 2000 squelched the best chance at pursuing two states.

Yet I believe there was a serious chance that the pragmatic Rabin could have made headway in the mid-1990s. At that time, as I learned from extensive interviews on the West Bank and in Gaza, large segments of Arafat’s Fatah movement were committed to the two-state idea. Having spent decades in Israeli jails, many were convinced that the Israeli state was invincible, and they were exerting pressure on Arafat to act accordingly. Meantime, Israelis still believed in a possible peace.

Those days are long over.

Settlement growth has convinced most Palestinians that Israel wants to keep the West Bank, while terror and missile attacks have convinced most Israelis that peace is a mirage.

The younger generations on both sides have given up on the idea of two states. But the most striking difference between the pragmatic Rabin and Netanyahu is that the former believed the status quo was dangerous for Israel in the long term. Rabin argued that Israel had to separate from the Palestinians in order to keep its democracy intact, and its security tight.

Netanyahu, on the other hand, seems convinced that the status quo is manageable and that settlement growth has no downside. He has offered no viable alternatives to the two-state solution; he seems oblivious to the possibility that the aging PLO leadership may give way to youths attracted by jihadi ideas.

Twenty years after Rabin was murdered, we are entering an era when Israeli and Palestinian ideologues who embrace the untenable idea of one state are on the rise, a guarantee of endless conflict.

Equally disturbing, we have entered an era when the notion of assassinating Israeli leaders has become a joking matter for members of the prime minister’s entourage.

Just before setting out for the United States, Netanyahu chose as his new public diplomacy chief Ran Baratz, who had attacked Israel’s president, Reuven Rivlin, on his Facebook page, calling him a “marginal figure” unworthy of assassination. “We view this gravely,” the presidential office of Rivlin messaged the prime minister’s office. No wonder: Rivlin has received death threats on social media on account of his support for tolerance between Palestinians and Jews.

Netanyahu’s new diplomacy chief also suggested on social media that President Obama was anti-Semitic and that Secretary of State John Kerry had the intellect of a preteen. That gives new definition to chutzpah.

At this writing, the Israeli prime minister has yet to rescind Baratz’s appointment. In the meantime, taking his cue from the top, the brother of Rabin’s assassin, Hagai Amir, a man who conspired in the murder, has threatened Rivlin more direly on Facebook.

Twenty years on, ideology has clearly replaced pragmatism in Jerusalem politics, with all the danger that portends.

No bike problems LAWRENCE

5A

After a dental appointment this week, I decided to drive around downtown Lawrence and count the bicycles, both parked and on the road. I drove from Sixth to 10th on New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Vermont. I encountered four bicycles being ridden and 32 parked. Next I drove past Lawrence High School and counted around 15 bicycles parked. On 21st street, on my way to the “big box” stores on Iowa, I observed three bicycles ridden and three parked. Lastly, at the “big box” stores I saw no bicycles, ridden or parked.

By comparison I would not have been able to count the number of cars on the road or parked in the many parking lots during this time.

Question: How many city commissioners, transportation supervisors and other city officials regularly ride a bicycle to work, shop or for recreation? Excluding students, how many Lawrence citizens own a bicycle, ride one to work or shop?

How many ride one for recreation?

In short, the incomplete streets approach for arterial streets in Lawrence is a solution for a problem that does not exist.

As expressed by F.W. (J-W 10/28), the city engineers must be tossing wet spaghetti at the road map. They should be designing a system of safe roads together with updating water and sewage systems.

Voting responsibly The voter registration lawsuit filed by

Paul Davis (LJW, 10/1/15) raises many questions.

Why shouldn’t the federal government require proof of citizenship to be eligible to vote? Why did Davis vote for proof of citizenship in 2011 and then wait four years to claim it is unconstitutional? Why should the state retain applications more than 90 days for applicants who failed to provide required documentation, when they can always reapply?

Was the client in this case aware of registration requirements seven months ago? During those seven months, did he attempt to obtain a birth certificate, available in Kansas within 10 days for $15.00 with five ways to register (in person, by phone, on the internet, or by regular mail or priority mail)? Did his parents offer their help to obtain his birth certificate?

If the client/student wanted to go to Mexico for spring break or study abroad, how long do you think it would take him to obtain his birth certificate in order to obtain a U. S. passport? Is voting less important? Would Davis sue the U. S. State Department over proof of citizenship to obtain a passport?

And regarding a related story, do college students who grew up on the Internet and qualified for admission to a college really need a “course” in how to register to vote? How hard is it to complete the application form and submit your driver’s license and birth certificate?

Voter rights are a serious matter but voter responsibilities should be equally important.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 10, 1915: years “Dr. S. J. Crago umbine’s address IN 1915 at the Trinity Lutheran church would have benefitted fifteen hundred or more people just as much as the two hundred who were there and who were glad they heard it.... Dr. Crumbine denounces the use of wells in the cities, declaring that nearly all of them are the sources of disease to a greater extent than is possible almost, for water from a regular waterworks to become. So saturated is the soil in the cities with filth that it is impossible in a majority of instances for the well water to be anything but foul. It is almost impossible, according to Dr. Crumbine, for the water from a waterworks to ever become as foul as the well water in the city. This is proven by chemical tests in a multitude of instances. Dr. Crumbine talked for an hour and a half including the time occupied by lantern slides, which were very informing, being pictures taken in various Kansas cities.”

“Five hundred pennants to gladden the eyes of the many football visitors in Lawrence Saturday and give the college finish to the town were received today by Harry B. Sparks, secretary of the Merchants association. The pennants are now ready for delivery to the various merchants who have ordered them. ” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Big Tobacco localities not big on bucks for education, enforcement Laura Ungar, Jayne O’Donnell and Meghan Hoyer USA TODAY

States hit hardest by the ravages of tobacco are often the least aggressive at hitting back, a USA TODAY analysis found. So a deadly culture of smoking lingers, which officials say is fueled relentlessly by tobacco companies targeting minorities and the poor.

ers weaken their own tobacco control efforts with cigarette taxes of 60 cents or less, compared with $3.75 in Rhode Island and $4.35 in New York. uHard-hit states also do the least to restrict smoking in places such as restaurants and workplaces and impose penalties of $100 or less on businesses selling tobacco to children, compared with $10,000 in the most aggres-

sive states.

USA TODAY analyzed government smoking data to create two scores for states: an “impact score” that combines adult and youth smoking rates and public perception about the risks of smoking; and an “aggressiveness score” combining cigarette taxes, smoking bans, state spending compared with the minimum recommended by federal health officials, advertising restrictions and penalties on sales to young people.

States scoring high on aggressiveness and low on tobacco impact include Hawaii, New York and Utah. But Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, West Virginia and Mississippi rank among the worst on both counts — left behind as cigarette smoking nationally hits a historic low.

A Jordanian police officer opened fire Monday at a police training compound in Amman, killing five people — including two American contractors — and raising worries about the spread of terrorism to a stable U.S. partner in the Middle East.

The gunman was shot to death, and details of the attack remain unclear, the Jordanian government said. Seven people were also wounded, including two Americans. The training center in eastern Amman is used principally to train Palestinian security personnel, though other nationalities are also trained there.

“We take this very seriously, and we’ll be working closely with the Jordanians to determine exactly what happened,” President Obama said while meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House.

Obama also said the attacker was wearing a military uniform.

Jordan has been a staunch U.S. ally in the fight against the Islamic State and has been relatively a stable country in a volatile region.

Jordan’s warplanes have participated in the air campaign against the Islamic State militants in Syria. Jordan was also among several countries in the region that was to establish a training center as part of a $500 million U.S. program to train a Syrian force to battle the Islamic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS. The program has since been suspended.

The country has come under “enormous pressure” in recent years as divisions have deepened between those who support the West and others who sympathize with Islamists, said James Carafano, an analyst with the Heritage Foundation.

The shooting bears a resemblance to insider attacks in Afghanistan, in which police or soldiers attacked Americans training them. The United States and Jordan cautioned that it was too early to speculate on a motive for the shooting.

“The investigation will uncover the motivation behind what happened,” Mohammed Momani, a Jordanian government spokesman, told the Associated Press.

Jordan’s government has not released the identity of the attacker.

Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said the the two contractors killed by the gunman worked for DynCorp International.

Tobacco officials: Young not targeted v CONTINUED FROM 1B

of Louisville Physicians. “I have patients who started puffing at 8, 9 and 10 years old.”

Longtime smokers pay a heavy price. The 2014 U.S. Surgeon General’s 50th anniversary report on smoking and health concludes that smoking not only causes such well-known tobacco-linked illnesses as lung cancer and cardiovascular disease, but also diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, ectopic pregnancy and colorectal and liver cancers. Each year, the habit kills 480,000 Americans and is responsible for $300 billion in health care costs and lost productivity.

Brian King, a deputy director in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Office of Smoking and Health, says the best ways to reduce smoking are to regulate it, raise cigarette taxes, have a hard-hitting anti-tobacco campaign and put enough money behind tobacco control.

But anti-smoking forces in government are “outgunned,” King says, since the tobacco industry spends about $1 million an hour advertising tobacco.

Making matters worse, states have been using money from a huge legal settlement with tobacco companies “to pave roads and fill in potholes” rather than pay for smoking-related health costs, says La Tanisha Wright, who worked as a trade marketing manager for Brown & Williamson Tobacco in the early 2000s. “The money is not hitting the low-income communities that have been hit with the most disease.”

Wright, who now runs the antitobacco group Follow the Signs, says she used to visit stores with $500 stuffed in her pockets and shoes to hand out to promote her brands in minority communities.

She says tobacco companies still heavily promote menthol cigarettes in these places because they know they are more addictive and favored by African Americans.

Poor people, young people and those without a college education are most likely to fall prey to to-

bacco marketing, says physician Rahul Gupta, commissioner of West Virginia’s Bureau of Public Health. “They are the most vulnerable among us and these (tobacco) companies know that.”

But tobacco company officials deny they target young people or non-smokers. David Howard, spokesman for Reynolds American Services, says “our marketing and promotional efforts are national in scope and are focused on one audience, adult tobacco consumers — all adult tobacco consumers,” and communicating about brand choices with those who “have made the informed decision to use tobacco” is crucial to competing in the marketplace.

A ‘TIME WARP’

Marlboro Lights were the brand of choice for Michael Cooper of Louisville who picked up his first cigarette at age 12 because it seemed the normal thing to do. “Anywhere you went, you could smoke. And just about anywhere you went, people were,” says Cooper, who went on to smoke a pack a day for most of his adult life.

Cooper quit smoking after suffering a heart attack in 2006, only to take it up again four months later.

Cooper’s story is common in Kentucky, which scored worst in the nation for tobacco impact and seventh-worst for aggressiveness in USA TODAY’s analysis. While smoking is banned in workplaces and public places in some cities and counties, there’s still no statewide smoking ban. Cigarette taxes are only 60 cents pack. And the state spends 10.7% of the minimum recommended by the CDC for tobacco control.

Stephanie Mayfield, commissioner of the Kentucky Department for Public Health, says the CDC’s calculations don’t capture all the state’s anti-tobacco spending. She points to a new statewide initiative that aims to reduce smoking 10% by 2019 and an order last year by outgoing Gov. Steve Beshear to make all executive state property smoke-free.

“There’s momentum that has

been set in place,” Mayfield says, citing slight drops in smoking rates in the last couple of years.

Officials in West Virginia, which ranks second-worst for tobacco impact and 10th worst for aggressiveness, say they’re also striving to do better by developing the state’s first tobacco control plan and especially focusing on young people, who increasingly are reporting they’ve never smoked.

But both states face tight budgets. West Virginia spends about 40% of the CDC’s recommended minimum on tobacco control but has seen steady declines in the amount it gets from the federal

government and state legislators.

After holding steady at $5.7 million from 2009-2013, funding for tobacco programs dropped to $5.3 million the next year and is now about $4.8 million.

Critics say one reason some states aren’t very aggressive is that tobacco is woven tightly into their communities even as the number of tobacco farms continues to shrink. “You can look at a map of tobacco control policies and see that every state that has weaker policies is a tobaccogrowing state,” says Yvonne Hunt, who heads the tobacco control research branch of the National Cancer Institute.

Sitting in a cancer education booth at a free health clinic in southwest Virginia this summer, pharmacy student Anesa Hughes tried to explain why smoking is so common in her area.

It’s “such a cultural thing,” says Hughes, who walked behind a tiller on her family’s tobacco farm starting at age 8. “It’s like we’re in a time warp.”

But even in tobacco-growing states, experts say making cigarettes more expensive can do a lot to bring down smoking rates.

Connecticut, with about 2,000 acres of tobacco known for its use in cigars, still manages to have the second-best impact score in the USA TODAY analysis. Connecticut officials credit the state’s early adoption of indoor smoking prohibitions, a free smoking cessation hotline and a $3.65-a-pack cigarette tax, which will rise to $3.90 next July.

While smoking has gone down among all groups in the state, eliminating disparities has proved challenging, says William Gerrish, a spokesman for the state health department.

Connecticut adults with less than a high school education are 3.5 times more likely to smoke than college-educated adults, for example, and more than a quarter of adults in households making less than $25,000 a year smoke cigarettes, compared with about 9% in households earning $75,000 or more.

The only state that scores better than Connecticut on tobacco impact is California. While its cigarette tax is only 87 cents and tobacco control funding has fluctuated in recent years, the state bans tobacco sales in pharmacies and restricts the location of tobacco retailers.

Officials also point out they’ve maintained a 25-year program using a portion of tobacco tax revenue for a hard-hitting media campaign and community efforts to change “social norms” around tobacco use.

Smoking cessation classes helped Cooper finally stub out his cigarettes in 2011, and he now teaches other smokers how to quit at a local medical clinic. His grandson was his inspiration.

“If he asked for the moon, I’d try to do it. I didn’t want to let him down,” Cooper says.

Health insurance a tough sell with low tax credits

Lack of coverage can be ‘way of life’ for the uninsured Jayne O’Donnell USA TODAY

Those eligible for the lowest subsidies to buy health insurance were the least likely to sign up for 2015 plans, studies show, another indication of the challenge of boosting enrollment for President Obama’s signature health care law in 2016.

The percentage of those choosing health plans dropped from about 75% for those earning $23,540 or less to about 14% for those earning about $47,000, new research from the Urban Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) shows.

Martha Lucia, left, sits with Rudy Figueroa of Sunshine Life and Health Advisors, as she picks an insurance plan in Miami. the federal and state insurance exchanges decrease as consumers earn closer to 400% of the federal poverty limit, which is about $47,000 for an individual.

This research and other

studies of the 2016 plans on HealthCare.gov are likely to further hamper efforts to enroll some of the remaining people that Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia

Burwell calls “hard to reach.”

Affordability is a big challenge for the uninsured.

When the insurance comparison site Healthpocket asked uninsured consumers how much they could spend on insurance a month, nearly 60% said $100 was their limit. That’s about the same percentage that said they had only $100 left after paying all their bills, RWJF found.

There was an 11% increase in the average deductible amount for individuals and a 10% leap for family deductibles, says Healthpocket. A single man, 30, making about $35,000 a year, would have to pay nearly $300 to get a silver plan on HealthCare.gov. He could drop down to a bronze plan and save about $25 a month, but his deductible would average about $5,800 a year.

RWJF found 96% of the newly insured with 2015 plans purchased on the new health insur-

ance exchanges reported being happy with their plans. That’s been evidenced by all the people re-enrolling rather than signing up for the first time with application counselors at Parkland Hospital in Dallas, says Bob Reed, the vice president of patient access.

For many uninsured consumers, having no insurance has “become a way of life,” says Katherine Hempstead, RWJF’s director of insurance coverage.

Many who lack coverage make do with low-cost drugs and health appointments available at retailers, including Walmart and Costco, Hempstead and others say.

Margaret Brawner of Charlotte says she is opting out of buying insurance again this year because of what she called “unaffordable premiums and ridiculous deductibles.” Instead, she’ll continue getting discounted prescriptions from CVS and discounted services from her doctors.

In Burma, a landslide likely for opposition

Aung San Suu Kyi’s NLD still faces hurdle Thomas Maresca

Special for USA TODAY RANGOON, BURMA

The party of opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi was headed for a landslide win Monday that could give it the presidency and loosen the military’s grip on power in Burma.

Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy (NLD) claimed it won nearly every parliamentary seat in four states where results were known from Sunday’s historic vote, the nation’s first contested national elections in 25 years.

The same trend was expected in Burma’s remaining 10 states, the Associated Press reported.

Although votes continued to be counted, the ruling Union Soli-

darity and Development Party, which is backed by the military, was facing a rout. “We lost,” party leader Htay Oo told Reuters.

The Union Solidarity party came into power in the 2010 elections, marking the end of a halfcentury of control by a military junta and the installation of a quasi-civilian government.

Hundreds of people gathered outside the NLD headquarters Monday night to celebrate.

“There’s never been anything like this,” said taxi driver Aung Aung, 27. “People are so happy because we needed to change.”

If the landslide victory holds, Suu Kyi’s party will have a majority of seats in parliament and will be able to name its own president in a few months.

Suu Kyi, 70, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991, spent decades trying to bring democracy to Burma, also known as Myanmar,

DARIO PIGNATELLI, BLOOMBERG

Aung San Suu Kyi, opposition leader and chairperson of the National League for Democracy (NLD), warned supporters that results are not yet final and they need to remain cautious. including 15 years under house arrest for defying military rulers.

She was released in 2010.

Suu Kyi has announced that her party has a candidate for president in place, but the person’s identity has not been revealed. Suu Kyi is barred from

becoming president because the constitution excludes anyone with foreign relatives from holding the high office. Suu Kyi’s late husband was a British national, and she has two British sons.

Once the glow of victory wears off, Suu Kyi’s party will face a dif-

ferent challenge: governing the country, instead of being the opposition. The NLD will be limited in its ability to make major overhauls, said Evan Rees, analyst for Stratfor, a geopolitical intelligence and advisory firm based in Austin.

U.S. and PRESIDENT, CHANCELLOR Israel STEP DOWN AT MIZZOU reaffirm their ties Obama, Netanyahu share ‘hope for peace’

Protests, walkouts escalated crisis on campus over racism

Covey Son and Aamer Madhani USA TODAY

Gregory Korte USA TODAY

WASHINGTON President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisted that they haven’t given up hope for peace in the Middle East, despite a changing political and diplomatic environment that seems to make such an accomplishment impossible for the remainder of Obama’s presidency.

“I want to make clear that we have not given up our hope for peace,” Netanyahu said in brief remarks at the beginning of their Oval Office meeting Monday. “We will never give up our hope for peace.”

SAUL LOEB, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shake hands during a meeting in the Oval Office on Monday.

“I remain committed to a vision of two states for two peoples, a demilitarized Palestinian state that recognizes the Jewish state,” he said. “I don’t think that anyone should doubt Israel’s determination to protect itself and defend itself against terror and destruction. But neither should anyone doubt Israel’s willingness to make peace with any of its neighbors who want to make peace with it.”

Netanyahu’s comments sought to reassure the United States that Israel remains committed to the two-state solution despite his comments in March suggesting the opposite.

But the White House isn’t convinced, and set low expectations in advance of the meeting.

Obama has said his goal now is to try to restore enough trust that future peace talks may someday be possible.

Obama said the “strong disagreement” over the Iran deal was “no secret,” but stressed that the alliance is strong. “There’s no foreign leader I’ve met with more frequently,” he said. “I think that’s testimony to the extraordinary bond between the United States and Israel.”

COLUMBIA , MO. he University of Missouri system’s president, Tim Wolfe, and the chancellor of the flagship campus, R. Bowen Loftin, announced Monday that they were resigning their posts in the face of growing protests by AfricanAmerican students, the threat of a walkout by faculty and a strike by football players who said administrators had done too little to combat racism on campus.

Wolfe made the stunning announcement at the start of a special Board of Curators meeting Monday morning that had been scheduled to address the growing crisis at the Show Me state’s flagship university. The board voted in favor of acceptAP ing his resigna“The frustra- tion.

Several tion and anhours later, ger I see is Loftin, chancelreal,” Tim lor of the uniWolfe said. versity’s Columbia campus, announced he will step down from his post by the end of the year as well.

“I am resigning as president of the University Missouri system,” said Wolfe, who choked up as he announced he was stepping down. “My motivation in making this decision comes from a love of Columbia where I grew up and the state of Missouri. I thought and prayed over this decision. It is the right thing to do. … The frustration and anger I see is real, and I don’t doubt it for a second.”

Loftin said he would transition into a new role on the Columbia campus “where I will work with many people across the university and with the system to advance our research mission.”

Earlier in the day, deans of nine departments at the Columbia campus had called for the dismissal of the chancellor, according to a letter obtained by the Columbia Daily Tribune. In addition to expressing their displeasure about Loftin’s leadership in dealing with the concerns raised by the black students, the deans also complained about Loftin’s recent decision to eliminate and then later reinstate graduate assistant health insurance. That decision had also drawn protest from the graduate student community at Mizzou.

The situation had become so emotional on campus that many members of the football team had announced they would boycott team activities.

The situation at Missouri, the oldest public university west of the Mississippi River, unfolded as

Students celebrate the resignation of the University of Missouri system’s president, Tim Wolfe, on Monday. Protesters at the school galvanized around a group called Concerned Student 1950.

“As a black student, there are times when I feel out of place.”

Student Majiyebo Yacim

other campuses, including Yale University and Ithaca College, have faced protests in recent weeks over racially tinged episodes on those campuses.

At Missouri, students pointed to several recent events on campus that underscore a hostile environment for black students.

Student government president Payton Head, who is black, said in September that people in a passing pickup shouted racial slurs at him. In early October, members of a black student organization said slurs were hurled at them by an apparently drunken white student. In addition, a swastika drawn in feces was found recent-

ly in a dormitory bathroom. Protesters at Missouri galvanized around a group called Concerned Student 1950, which gets its name from the year the university accepted its first black student.

Football players joined the protest after graduate student Jonathan Butler began a hunger strike one week ago. Butler said the strike would either end with Wolfe leaving his post or Butler dying. After Wolfe’s announcement, Butler took to Twitter to announce it was over.

Hundreds gathered on the university’s quad after Wolfe announced his resignation. They sang We Shall Overcome, a song that had become an anthem of the Civil Rights Movement, and said the episode was just one moment in what will be a larger push for change on campus.

“Our demands must be met in totality to create systems of healing within the UM System,” said

Marshall Allen, one of the original members of Concerned Student 1950. “In addition to this, students, staff and faculty of color must be involved in the process of (deciding) who will be our next UM System president.”

Majiyebo Yacim, a junior at the university who watched from the sidelines of the protest, said Wolfe’s resignation was long overdue. “I feel pretty isolated,” said Yacim, who is black. “It is a predominantly white institution.

And as a black student, there are times when I feel out of place.

Seeing that minority students on campus can stick together and make things happen has been a really great experience.”

Donald Cupps, the chairman of the Board of Curators, said the body was prepared to meet with the student protesters.

A federal judge ruled Monday that the National Security Agency must stop collecting the phone records of a handful of Americans who challenged the legality of the mass surveillance program.

The ruling by U.S. District Judge Richard Leon is limited to halting the surveillance of two plaintiffs and does not stop the NSA from continuing its mass collection of phone records of millions of Americans who are not suspected of any terrorist activity. However, that mass surveillance program is scheduled to end on Nov. 29.

The tragedy occurred when dams at an iron ore mine burst, releasing a sea of muck. a gunman who killed one man and wounded two others outside a Midtown subway station during morning rush.

The victims, all in their 40s, had been drinking coffee in a McDonald’s when the heavy-set gunman in a black-hooded sweatshirt

“Those individuals then walked out of the McDonald’s and into the subway station,” Boyce said. “They were followed by the same individual.”

Thirty years after a 54-year-old piano teacher was bludgeoned to death in his suburban Wilmington home, New Castle County Police have arrested Sandra Hartzag, a 50-year-old woman who was living in a homeless camp in northwestern Georgia.

This is the first case to be solved by the county police department’s cold-case unit.

Forty years ago, on Nov. 10, 1975, the freighter Edmund Fitzgerald sank during a ferocious storm on Lake Superior, killing all 29 men aboard.

The shipwreck was soon to be made famous in the haunting song by Canadian songwriter Gordon Lightfoot, The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, which was released the year after the sinking.

In the song, the disaster was blamed in part on the “Witch of November,” which is the source of memorable and fierce storms on the Great Lakes.

“When the witch angrily stirs her cauldron, no ship, no matter how large, is safe on the Great Lakes,” according to a 1998 article in Weatherwise magazine by meteorologist Steve Horstmeyer and geographer Mace Bentley. The Edmund Fitzgerald remains the largest of all the ships wrecked or sunk by bad weather in the Great Lakes.

Incredibly, in the past 300 years, about 30,000 people have died in 10,000 shipwrecks on the Great Lakes, the Rev. William Fleming told the Detroit News. Fleming is the pastor of the Mariners’ Church of Detroit, which was mentioned in the Lightfoot song.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was loaded with about 26,000 tons of taconite pellets on Nov. 9, 1975, at Superior, Wis., and was bound for Detroit. The pellets are a product in iron mining.

As the season shifts toward winter, the polar jet stream begins to shift south and can stir up storms that produce howling winds and gigantic waves in November on the Great Lakes.

200,000 COMCAST ACCOUNTS LOCKED DOWN Comcast on Monday did a forcereset on 200,000 active accounts whose owners’ information was being sold online by black market brokers. Comcast locked down their accounts, which meant the customers had to go in and verify their identities and reset their passwords. The customer account information did not come from a breach of Comcast’s network. Instead, it appears to have been compiled from previously stolen information and simply aggregated to include only purported Comcast customers.

here’s the breadth? No, not the famous Wendy’s TV ad back in the early ’80s with the catchy slogan “Where’s the beef?” Wall Street is worried about the shrinking number of stocks that have been increasingly responsible for driving the U.S. stock market higher since the market low in August.

While Monday’s 1% sell-off on Wall Street was blamed on the market’s reaction to the rising odds of coming interest rate hikes later this year after a strong October jobs report Friday, Wall Street was already worrying about the lack of so-called market “breadth.”

In Wall Street-talk, a lack of market breadth refers to a condition when just a handful of stocks — normally large-company names with big market values — drive the performance of major stock indexes such as the Standard & Poor’s 500 index that are weighted by market-capitalization. Wall Street views stock rallies driven by a smaller and smaller pool of winning names as a sign of market weakness, lack of leadership and a dearth of strength under the surface of the broader market.

The term “Nifty Fifty” was born back in the late 1960s when a handful of growth stocks, such as IBM, Polaroid and McDonalds, drove the market up to dizzying heights before falling hard and wringing out all the exuberance in the 1973-74 bear market. A handful of hot tech stocks in 2000 also drove the Nasdaq to dizzying heights before the tech stock crash.

“Any way we look at it, market breadth remains narrow,” Chris Verrone and Todd Sohn, analysts at Strategas Research Partners, stressed to clients in a note.

In the report, they rolled out some shocking statistics to drive their point home. Last week, for example, the broad S&P 500 stock index hit a 65-day high — yet only 14% of the 500 stocks in the index matched that performance. But the stat that really drives the point home that just a chosen few names are driving the market’s gains this year: “The 10 largest stocks in the S&P 500 have contributed more than 100% of the year’s roughly 2% gain” heading into this week’s trading, Verrone and Sohn noted.

“By comparison, both 2013 and 2014 saw the 10 largest stocks contribute less than 20% of the year’s advance.” The 10 biggest stocks in the index accounted for

THE NEW TECH ECONOMY

SAN

FRANCISCO

Caution signs litter the road to this month’s planned initial public offering from Jack Dorsey’s company Square, which began pitching its IPO to institutional investors in New York on Monday.

Square kicked off what’s known as a “roadshow.” In a slick 38-minute video for investor presentations, Dorsey and other executives describe the company’s ambitions to increase small merchants’ use of Square payment services, best known for the white credit-card swipe readers that attach to smartphones, add financial services and marketing services, and yes, make a profit.

Dorsey positions Square as a digital financial services company that “serves” people. “If we focus on making it easy, people will love it,” Dorsey says in the video.

But Square is preparing to start its life as a public company with some very real questions about its business and its valuation.

If the mobile-payments proc-

essing company founded by Twitter CEO Dorsey hits the high end of its offering of $11 to $13 per share, it will be valued at $4.2 billion, far shy of its most recent valuation of $6 billion by private investors.

Square’s diminished IPO valuation illustrates a tough market for the debut of tech companies — especially unicorns, privatelyheld start-ups with market valuations of at least $1 billion. It also highlights the great divide between the optimism of private company valuations and a discerning public market.

How skeptical? Only 14% of IPOs this year have been from tech, the industry’s lowest representation since 2008, according to Dealogic. Deepening concerns, Square has warned revenue growth will probably decline after it reported a $53.9 million loss for its third quarter. Dorsey’s dual role as CEO of both Square and Twitter also is likely to send investors’ pulse rates atwitter.

“One of the biggest challenges

Square faces is the underlying business model of the industry it is operating in,” Jan Dawson, head of Jackdaw Research, said in a recent report.

The high-profile exclusive deal with Starbucks underscored the fragility. Announced with much fanfare in 2012, Square lost $71 million over three years processing Starbucks payments, according to Square’s IPO filing.

Square, which agreed to end the partnership after Starbucks moved to another vendor, said Starbucks accounted for 11% of Square’s total sales this year but also chewed up 21% of Square’s transaction costs.

Square, in some ways, must grapple with heightened expectations from its early success of attracting more than 2 million merchants.

“Tools are so valuable when it comes to unserved markets,” Square director and entrepreneur Earvin “Magic” Johnson says in the roadshow video, underscoring Square’s raison d’etre of giving small merchants and mom-andpop businesses the ability to accept credit cards. At the same time, it’s confronting a vastly different competitive landscape today. The 6-year-old company blazed a trail in online payments before the field got crowded.

With tech-related IPOs at their lowest point, by percentage, in seven years and concerns about Square’s value, the performance of Square’s IPO may offer a glimpse into the state of the tech IPO market in 2016.

fail, says regulator Kaja Whitehouse USA TODAY

NEW YORK The world’s 30 largest banks may need to raise an additional $1.2 trillion to prevent another round of bailouts, an international financial regulator said Monday.

The Financial Stability Board (FSB), which was formed in the wake of Lehman Brothers’ cataclysmic 2008 collapse, issued final rules Monday for JPMorgan, Citigroup, Bank of America, Goldman and other big banks deemed at risk of being “too big to fail.”

FSB’s proposal will act as a minimum standard for bank capitalization requirements in 24 countries, including the United States, China and the U.K. According to FSB, bank shortfalls as of the end of 2014 range from $1.22 trillion, or 1.30 trillion euro, to $492 billion, or 457 billion euro — money that will need to be raised in the form of debt or securities by 2022.

Banking stocks fell Monday on the news as it could mean banks will be forced to sell off assets and take on less risk, which can lower returns.

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

It’s unrealistic to expect the stock market to take the first rate hike totally in stride, especially when investors haven’t seen a rate increase from the Federal Reserve since 2006.

Regardless of whether you think the economy is strong enough to survive the first hike in a nearly a decade — which seems likely at the Fed’s December meeting after Friday’s strong October jobs report — or whether you think even a quarter point rate increase from 0% will derail the recovery, the fact is there will be market volatility ahead of the Fed’s expected hike.

That seemed to be the message of the market Monday, when all the major U.S. stock indexes fell

Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:

1%, following Friday’s flat, no-decision type-market.

Interest-rate hikes, by nature, change the investing landscape. It requires investors to recalibrate their spreadsheets, as it relates to earnings growth, economic growth and the relationship between stocks and risk-free assets.

It also results in portfolio shifts, as investors move away from stocks that benefit from lower rates, such as utilities, real estate investment trusts and housing stocks. Investors also shift money into stocks that fare well in rising rate environments, such as banks and companies with peppier growth trajectories.

The point? Wall Street will undergo some tense days as the first rate hike nears. But, given that rates now are pegged near zero, it seems unlikely a quarter-point hike will cause a recession or kill the stock’s bull market overnight.

Investors getting ready for rocky fourth quarter Q: Will fourth-quarter profits be better?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Investors have just endured something they haven’t had to deal with in awhile: falling profits. But they might as well get used to it.

Analysts are calling for companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500 to post 3.7% lower adjusted profit in the fourth quarter, S&P Capital IQ says.

If these estimates are right, investors will be looking at the first back-to-back quarterly earnings declines since at least 2009. The biggest culprit in the expected fourth-quarter profit drop is the energy sector again. Energy profits are expected to drop 66% in the quarter.

Seeing the drop in profit is tough for investors to swallow since the third quarter already was the toughest for profit in years. More than 450 companies in the S&P 500 have reported thirdquarter profit, and earnings are down 1.6%. That’s much better than the 4.8% profit decline analysts expecting on Oct. 1 for the third quarter, but drastically less than the 6.4% growth expected at the start of the year.

If S&P 500 companies beat earnings forecasts by the same degree in the fourth quarter, profits would only decline by less than 1%.

That would make it better than the third quarter but still far from the growth investors might demand to justify stock prices.

VW gives $1,000 in freebies to car owners hit by scandal Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

Volkswagen Group is offering gift cards and dealership credits to U.S. owners of cars equipped with software that cheats emissions regulations in an early move to rehabilitate its battered image in hopes many will stay loyal to the brand.

The German automaker will offer a $500 Visa debit card, which can be spent on anything, and a $500 dealership credit to owners of 482,000 diesel cars

FRANCOIS NASCIMBENI, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Vehicles fill the lot at a Volkswagen in Villers-Cotterets, France, in September.

embroiled in the emissions scandal. The company will also offer three years of free roadside assistance. Owners of affected Audi

cars will get the same offer.

By accepting the offer, vehicle owners will not be required to relinquish their right to participate in a class-action lawsuit, take legal actions on their own or give up any potential future compensation, Volkswagen spokeswoman Jeannine Ginivan confirmed in an email.

“There are no stipulations,” she said.

The offer is designed to reverse the tide of negative sentiment that has deluged the automaker after it admitted to purposely fitting up to 11 million vehicles worldwide with software that

tricks regulators into believing the cars were compliant with emissions standards.

“We are working tirelessly to develop an approved remedy for affected vehicles,” Volkswagen U.S. CEO Michael Horn said in a statement.

The offer is also designed to give a boost to Volkswagen dealers, who are not allowed to sell pre-owned vehicles or new vehicles fitted with the software until the company delivers a fix.

The offer to VW owners requires them to visit VWDiesel Info.com, then enter their vehicle identification number (VIN),

name, address and mileage. Afterward, owners will receive their “goodwill package” in four weeks.

Owners must then take that package to the dealer to get their Visa debit card and VW gift card.

The vehicles included in the offer are the four-cylinder diesel versions of the 2009 to 2015 Jetta TDI, 2009 to 2014 VW Jetta SportWagen TDI, 2010 to 2015 VW Golf TDI, 2015 VW Golf SportWagen TDI, 2012 to 2015 VW Beetle TDI and VW Beetle Convertible TDI, and the 2012 to 2015 VW Passat TDI. O Owners of the 2009-15 diesel Audi A3 also will receive the offer.

Idol, who launched his North American tour in January, will be in Vegas for only a limited run: Just 12 dates have been confirmed between March and May. IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

Shonda Rhimes’ Year of Yes started with a big ol’ no.

The creator of Scandal and Grey’s Anatomy, who owns ABC’s entire Thursday night lineup (including How to Get Away With Murder), was called out by her eldest sister Delorse one Thanksgiving morning: “You never say yes to anything.”

The comment dug at the successful showrunner, who was used to rejecting piles of invitations thanks to a blinding fear of going out of her comfort zone.

And so Rhimes challenged herself to say “yes’” for a year: Yes to giving the commencement address at her alma mater, Dartmouth; yes to Jimmy Kimmel; yes to being late for work if it means spontaneous time with her three daughters, Harper, 13, Emerson, 3, and Beckett, 2.

“The biggest thing about this year was discovering how possible it is to change your entire life,” says Rhimes, whose new book is called Year of Yes: How to Dance It Out, Stand in the Sun and Be Your Own Person (Simon & Schuster). “I don’t think I ever believed anything like that existed for anybody.”

Rhimes takes a note from Scandal’s Olivia Pope and decides to tell the whole truth, answering the question famous mothers get most: How do you do it all?

With help, Rhimes states plainly, name-checking her nanny, Jenny McCarthy (no, not that one).

“I don’t know how to not be honest,” Rhimes says. “It does such a disservice to any other woman who’s out there reading and thinking, ‘Oh, it’s so easy for somebody else.’ And it’s not easy. It’s not easy for me. So I know it can’t be easy for somebody who doesn’t have any help.”

Rhimes’ frustrations are evident, particularly with journalists asking her why diversity is important on television. In Year of Yes, Rhimes reframes the debate, pointing out that her ethnically and sexually diverse casts are simply “normalizing” TV, mimicking real life.

Yet on the phone, simply re-

Shonda Rhimes, out of her comfort zone.

hashing her own words proves prickly ground. “I find it tiresome that we even have to be having those conversations (about diversity), I guess,” she says.

Part of Rhimes’ renewal includes major weight loss: she charts a journey of eating whole pizzas to saying “yes” to weight loss (she has lost more than 100 pounds) thanks to portion-control and Pilates. “If

you can name it, I have tried it,” she says.

The most deeply personal chapter of Year of Yes? Rhimes says no to marrying her boyfriend — and yes to the unknown. (She doesn’t want to name him to protect his privacy.)

“It really had to do with me realizing who I was, and that I was a person who was perfectly happy being single and maybe living with someone or having someone live next door or across the street or something,” she says.

Professionally, Shondaland (Rhimes’ production company) has hit a new groove, having

served up 12 seasons of Grey’s, five of Scandal and two of HTGAWM, with a new ABC midseason series, The Catch.

“I feel very excited to have discovered that I can make this home for other writers to have shows and build shows and keep the sort of brand and feeling of our shows going,” she says.

And her sister? Has a year of yes gained Rhimes respect?

“Absolutely not!” she laughs.

“I’m still the youngest of six. I’m still the overly verbal dorky baby sister.

“No one’s impressed by me — and I think that’s a good thing.”

BURBANK , CALIF. Lou Diamond Phillips heard a familiar cry while promoting his upcoming film The 33 with a stop last week at the New York Stock Exchange.

It wasn’t just “buy” and “sell” coming from the trading floor. It was a famous line from his starring role as Ritchie Valens in 1987’s La Bamba. The one uttered when his screen mother discovers that the pop star has died.

“Way deep in the stock exchange floor, I hear, ‘Not my Ritchie!’ ” says Phillips, smiling.

“On a weekly basis, I hear ‘Not my Ritchie!’ screamed at me from across the street. They are not subtle about it. La Bamba is 28 years old, and it’s persevered.”

So has Phillips, 53, who has a three-decade Hollywood career.

He’s garnering renewed attention with his latest performance in the true-life 2010 tale of the trapped Chilean miners in The 33 — along with a significant guest arc on

“I call it a resurrection,” says Phillips, whose career spans three decades. “The stars have just aligned.”

DAN MACMEDAN, USA TODAY

NBC’s drama Blindspot and starring role on Netflix drama Longmire, which has been renewed for a fifth season.

“I call it a resurrection,” Phillips says. “People will look at this and think I have strategized this.

No, the stars have just aligned. I have been very fortunate to be doing some of the best work of my career.”

It’s a career that burst into superstardom with La Bamba, followed quickly by Stand and Deliver and Young Guns (both in 1988). The heat may have cooled, but Phillips is still producing

quality work in diverse fields.

He has played the King in The King and I more than 600 times in five stage productions (with a Tony Award nomination in 1996), without ever shaving his head.

“I’m playing the King, not Yule Brynner,” Phillips says.

There are guest TV roles, supporting film roles and audiobook narration. The kitchen enthusiast won Food Network’s Rachel vs.

Guy: Celebrity Cook-Off in 2012.

“No matter what the project is, I bring my A-game,” says Phillips, who has four daughters from three marriages (including Indi-

go, 8, from his wife of eight years, Yvonne).

He says he lobbied to play 33 shift foreman Luis “Don Lucho” Urzua. Director Patricia Riggen was hooked after his audition: “He made me cry. He elevated the character to something truly special. It’s this rediscovery of this talented actor.”

Phillips dropped 18 pounds to play the role, then shopped for and cooked Sunday meals for the crew, the rare decent meal in the remote Colombian location.

Each day, Phillips would hit real salt mines used as locations with his co-stars, including Antonio Banderas and Oscar Nuñez.

“Working in those mines did something to all of us — not only in the bond it created, but it was keeping our spirits up very much like the miners,” Phillips says. “I would never deign to say that we know what they went through.

But we got a glimpse into it.”

The self-described “journeyman” actor hopes to provide other glimpses of himself playing serial killer Richard Ramírez in the just-wrapped The Night Stalker (expected in 2016) “I’ve always known I’ve wanted a career,” Phillips says. “And not just be a flash in the pan or flavor of the month.”

Medicare to begin covering advance care planning

By Lauran Neergaard Associated Press

Medicare said recently it will pay doctors to help patients plan what kind of care they want at the end of life, an idea more broadly accepted than six years ago when it touched off a political uproar about “death panels.”

The policy change, announced Friday, was urged by numerous physician and health groups. Some doctors provide this “advance care planning” to their patients without getting paid for the counseling time, and some private insurers already reimburse for it.

But the Obama administra-

As a physician and a son, I personally know how important these discussions are for patients and families. We believe patients and families deserve the opportunity to discuss these issues with their physician and care team.”

— Dr. Patrick Conway, Medicare’s chief medical officer

tion’s policy change could make the talks more common among about 55 million Medicare beneficiaries.

The rule, proposed last summer and finalized Friday as part of broader doctorpayment regulations, takes effect Jan. 1. The counseling is entirely voluntary, and could take place during seniors’ an-

nual wellness visit or during regular office visits.

“As a physician and a son, I personally know how important these discussions are for patients and families,” Dr. Patrick Conway, Medicare’s chief medical officer, said in an interview. “We believe patients and families deserve the opportunity to discuss these

issues with their physician and care team.”

Most Americans say they’d prefer to die at home, with treatment to free them from pain. But the landmark “Dying in America” report from the prestigious Institute of Medicine found the reality too often is unwanted invasive care and not enough comfort, in part because too few people make their wishes known to their doctors and loved ones.

The movement toward what’s called advance care planning also reflects that this isn’t just an issue for people who already are seriously ill, but a process that may prompt different decisions at different stages of life.

Be fast: How to strike back against stroke

By Aynsley Anderson Lawrence Memorial Hospital

Chances are that you probably know someone who has had a stroke.

Each year about 795,000 people experience a new or recurrent one.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, stroke is the fifth-leading cause of death in the United States, killing nearly 129,000 people each year. On average, one American suffers a stroke every 40 seconds, and someone dies from stroke every four minutes.

Stroke is also a major cause of long-term disability. Stroke costs the United States an estimated $34 billion each year. This total includes the cost of health care services, medications to treat stroke, and missed days of work.

Amy Jarvis, director of critical care at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, is a certified stroke registered nurse and coordinator of the hospital’s Stroke Team. Lawrence Memorial Hospital is certified

ter. This two-year certification recognizes the hospital’s stroke program as a center of excellence in providing primary care for stroke patients.

Jarvis stresses how important it is for someone experiencing the symptoms of stroke to get medical help immediately.

“Patients who arrive in the emergency room within three hours of to have less disability their first symptoms tend three months after their

stroke than those people with delayed treatment,” she notes, citing the current evidence-based standard of care.

Would you be able to recognize the signs of a stroke or a transient ischemic attack, also known as a TIA or mini-stroke, if someone you knew was having one? The chance of surviving a stroke or of having lessened disability is greatly reduced when early emergency care is received. For some qualifying stroke patients, Please see STROKE, page 2C

Dear Dr. Wes: I am in middle school. I am thinking about asking my best friend to be my girlfriend. We are both girls and I don’t know if she likes girls and I don’t want to ruin our relationship, but I think about dating her all the time and I’d like to at least ask her. Do you think this is a good idea or a bad one?

Wes: Based on recent clinical experience, there’s no doubt that today’s middle-schoolers are in a whole new ballgame when it comes to attraction and dating. In fact, I get some version of your question every couple of weeks and we actually used this scenario as a prompt for the second essay in this year’s contest, which Gabe won. It’s that common.

I realize it will be hard for some readers to fathom, but same-sex dating doesn’t mean you identify as gay or even bisexual. For kids in your age range right now, it just means you want to date someone you like and that person happens to be a girl. And as I’ve said for a couple of years now, this is the wave of the future — the person will matter more than the label. Your generation is leading the way.

So, the chances of your friend being interested in dating you are statistically greater now than ever before. Still, no matter whether you date same or opposite sex partners, the dangers of starting a romance with a best friend are well known. You risk ruining the friendship and losing someone you care about.

On the other hand, I’ve seen many relationships in which friendship catches fire and works out to be a pretty neat deal. Just be sure you plan the end from the very start.

Last two sessions of Skillbuilders scheduled Staff Report

There are two more sessions of Skillbuilders before the end of the fall 2015 series.

The session on Thursday is typically one of the most popular of the Skillbuilders series: Cooking for One & Two. Susan Johnson with the Douglas County Extension Office will present

a cooking class, and attendees can sample the food that’s prepared.

The Nov. 19 session follows up on a previous session. Adjusting to Change with Paul Reed from Visiting Nurses and Pattie Johnston with the Lawrence Public Library gives anyone who is going through life changes the tools to deal with their new circumstances.

This second installment of Adjusting to Change will deal with holidays and special occasions.

It is thanks to Visiting Nurses that Lawrence has the twice-yearly Skillbuilders workshops; Visiting Nurses brought the program to Lawrence from Kansas City.

No registration is required, and all programs

are free.

Transportation is available by calling Douglas County Senior Services at 865-6925.

Skillbuilders meets from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Nov. 12 and Nov. 19 at the Smith Center at Brandon Woods at Alvamar, 4730 Brandon Woods Terrace.

For more information, call Pattie Johnston, 8433833, ext. 115.

Involving a doctor in those decisions can help people fully understand their options. A relatively healthy person might want all-out efforts to resuscitate them after an accident, for example, but if diagnosed with advanced cancer, might make different decisions as their health gradually worsened.

If you weigh the costs and benefits and decide this is something you want to pursue, first ask whether your friend has ever considered samesex dating. Many girls have given this some thought, and if you have a good relationship and you’re careful to ask in a casual way, she’ll probably tell you honestly.

You can judge from her response whether you should pursue things further or back off fast.

part because of feedback from doctors and the public that people may need repeat counseling as their health needs change.

“If you made a choice and you become more ill, you might want to have the discussion again,” Conway explained. “For some patients, it may need to occur multiple times in a year if they’re quite ill and their circumstances may change. For other patients, they may not need this service at all in a year.”

Medicare’s new policy “is a turning point in endof-life care,” said Oregon Democratic Rep. Earl Blu-

menauer, a longtime congressional proponent of coverage for such counseling. He said next steps include helping ensure that advance directives for all patients are easily accessible and updated frequently, and that doctors are trained to have these difficult conversations.

“Ultimately, the care provided must align with the patient’s stated goals values, and informed preferences,” Blumenauer said.

About three-quarters of the people who die each year in the U.S. are 65 and older, making Medicare the largest in-

surer at the end of life, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation.

For years there had been bipartisan consensus about helping people to better understand their end-of-life choices. A 1992 law passed under Republican President George H.W. Bush requires hospitals and nursing homes to help patients who want to prepare living wills and advance directives. Momentum stalled with political outcry over including endof-life conversations in President Barack Obama’s health care law, which some opponents termed “death panels.”

disapproving parents. You should also discover her parents’ attitudes as well.

This may be harder to do but would be very helpful in making your decision on how to proceed.

Then, of course, comes the hard part — finding out what your best friend thinks. The first and most straightforward way is to simply ask her.

There is a slight risk of a very negative answer that could endanger your friendship, but it’s unlikely. You might even try getting a different person — perhaps a trustworthy guy friend — to ask her what she thinks about same-sex dating. If she doesn’t like the idea, your friendship can still exist as it did before as she will be none the wiser.

If she IS interested, you should ask her out. In the same way someone may ask out an opposite-sex friend, you should approach her and tell her how you’re feeling. If she declines, assure her that you want to remain friends.

If she says yes, then great!

People in relationships should be friends and you’ve already completed that part of the process.

Gabe: If I were in your situation right now, I would go for it. But I am a high-schooler and you are a middle-schooler, and things are vastly different in dating between the two. I personally recommend that you do some digging before you decide to ask her or not.

First, if you haven’t done it already, find out if your parents are opposed to same-sex dating or middle-school dating in general. It’s becoming less and less common to find parents who are, but it’s always good to check. It would be hard to cultivate a good relationship under the oversight of

Dear Annie: My wife and I have been together for 10 years and married for two. I still work full time, but my wife took early retirement last spring and now she spends weeks at a time visiting different members of her family.

When she is gone, she rarely answers her phone. I’ve noticed that when she’s away, I sleep and eat more, rarely socialize and don’t get things done that I should. I believe I’m depressed without her.

I believe it would be easier if she called me daily or at least answered my calls, so I don’t feel cut off and alone. She doesn’t understand this. She says phone calls interfere with her visits. Annie, wouldn’t any normal person understand calling her spouse to touch base daily?

Astronauts recall their near misses “Lost in Space” is not only a TV show. The notion of being stranded in the icy void of outer space has been the stuff of nightmares and scary movies. It has also happened more than once on manned space missions, as recalled on “Secret Space Escapes” (9 p.m., Science, TV-PG). ‘‘Escapes” interviews astronauts who recall near misses, terrifying accidents and harrowing survival. Astronauts Robert Curbeam and Thomas Jones were installing a new module on the International Space Station when a malfunctioning valve covered them with toxic ammonia. Had they returned to the craft, they may have poisoned its atmosphere. This forced the two men to remain outside and get rid of the gunk the old-fashioned way.

They had to stay outside, hurtling through space at 17,000 mph, until the sun could melt the contaminants.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Tuesday, Nov. 10: This year your imagination feeds your creativity to such an extent that others often are dumbfounded by your ideas and solutions. If you are single, others respond to your charisma. If you are attached, the two of you often have a great time together.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You’ll get an earful early on. What you are hearing could be good information, but it also might be overwhelming. Tonight: Go along with a family member’s suggestion.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You might be stubborn and want to have your way, but someone else is determined to run the show. Tonight: Agree to established plans.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) All work and no play isn’t healthy, but today you might not have a choice. Stick to your vision.

Tonight: Know when to relax and let go.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Your energy seems to soar. You’ll need it to dive into your work, project or something that allows you to create. Tonight: Add more spice to your life.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Someone you care about might be pressuring you. Decide the best way to handle this. To-

whether to continue this tradition. I never get a Christmas card or birthday card from them.

Also, I had breast cancer and a double mastectomy a few years ago and they never ask how I am.

I feel bad if I don’t send them a gift, but shouldn’t this relationship should work both ways? — Disappointed Dear Disappointed: Many grandchildren think gifts and cards only flow one way. You have to tell them. When they ask why they didn’t get a Christmas gift from Nana this year, simply say you never hear back from them, so you assume they don’t particularly like your presents.

That should take care of it.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can’t complain about people not appreciating your ideas if you are not sharing them. Tonight: Out and about.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could be exhausted by everything that is occurring.

Use caution with your finances.

Tonight: Take care of yourself first.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your natural style encourages agreement where there otherwise would be uproar. Tonight: Go along with the moment.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to slow down before you take a leap of faith. Consider the pros and cons of your decisions. Tonight: Share exciting news with a pal.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Once others get that you aren’t going to change your direction, they will want to join you. Tonight: Hang out.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Be willing to take a stand and let others decide whether to join you. Be OK with feedback you get. Tonight: A must appearance.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Hoppin’ mad

Perry Ellis, who at 6-foot8, 225-pounds has been used as a power forward during his three years at Kansas University, may soon see a change in his job description.

“The way things are going, I think Perry is going to play a lot at the 3,” KU coach Bill Self said Monday, referring to the small-forward position. “When he plays a lot of 3, it allows another big to be in the game. The way I see us moving forward is, I think that could be a good lineup for us.

Talib suspended, says poke an accident SOUTH

Englewood, Colo. (ap) — Aqib Talib says he understands why the NFL suspended him for poking Colts tight end Dwayne Allen in his right eye.

He just hopes the league agrees it was accidental once he gets to tell his side of the story.

“I think I deserve discipline.

I didn’t initially poke him in his eye. But as you can see, I did get him in his eye,” Talib said

Monday. “It was unintentional.

They’ve got the right to discipline me as they did.”

The NFL swiftly slapped Talib with a one-game suspension Monday, and just as quickly Talib appealed the punishment “just for the simple fact that it was not intentional,” he said.

“I didn’t walk over there like I’m going to poke this guy in his eye. But I know I should

If upheld, Denver’s star cornerback will miss the Broncos’ game against the Kansas City AL Chiefs (3CENTRAL 5) this weekend. He’ll also miss out on a $323,529 paycheck on his $5.5 million base salary.

“I sat with Aqib on the plane coming home last night, had a AL WEST long talk with him,” coach Gary Kubiak said Monday. “He’s BALTIMORE ORIOLES

LOS ANGELES ANGELS OF ANAHEIM

Late drive lifts Bears over Bolts San Diego (ap) — Zach Miller made a one-handed grab of a 25-yard touchdown pass from Jay Cutler with 3:19 to go, and the Chicago Bears beat the San Diego Chargers 22-19 on Monday night.

Cutler, who overcame an interception return for a touchdown and a fumble to throw for 345 yards, calmly led the Bears on the winning 10-play, 80-yard drive after the Chargers opened a 19-14 lead on rookie Josh Lambo’s 22-yard field goal.

Miller made a leaping grab with his right hand and scored.

Rookie Jeremy Langford, subbing for the injured Matt Forte, ran in the two-point conversion.

It was the first lead for Chicago, which scored 15 points in the fourth quarter.

Cutler’s two TD passes broke the franchise record, giving him 139 with the Bears.

He had been tied with Hall of Famer Sid Luckman.

The Bears (3-5) snapped a two-game losing streak. San Diego (2-7) lost its fifth straight.

Cutler never wavered in another tight game for Chicago.

He continually attacked San Diego’s depleted secondary, completing 27 of 40 passes.

Two plays before the TD throw to Miller, Cutler was hit and still completed a 12-yard pass to Alshon Jeffery on thirdand-six.

LSU FRESHMAN BEN SIMMONS SPEAKS DURING MEDIA DAY on Oct. 14 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Simmons on Monday was selected to the Associated Press preseason All-America team.

LSU’s Simmons rare freshman All-American LSU freshman Ben Simmons joined some impressive company Monday on the Associated Press preseason All-America team and could be with those same players at the end of the season.

The 6-foot-10 point forward from Australia, who played his high school basketball in Florida, is just the fourth freshman to be honored on the preseason team. The others — Harrison Barnes of North Carolina (2010-11), Andrew Wiggins of Kansas (2013-14), and Jahlil Okafor of Duke (2014-15) — all were high picks in the NBA Draft after leaving school early.

It would be easy to imagine Simmons doing the same. He averaged 28.0 points, 11.9 rebounds, 4.0 assists and hundreds of stunned fans in his senior year of high school in Florida.

Joining Simmons on the preseason All-America team were seniors Kyle Wiltjer of Gonzaga, Georges Niang of Iowa State and Buddy Hield of Oklahoma and junior Kris Dunn of Providence.

TODAY IN SPORTS 1984 — Maryland completes the biggest comeback in NCAA history, overcoming a 31-0 halftime deficit to beating Miami 42-40 in the Orange Bowl. Led by backup quarterback Frank Reich, the Terrapins score on six consecutive drives in the second half and stop Hurricane running back Melvin Bratton’s two-point conversion attempt on the goal line late in the fourth quarter.

1990 — The Phoenix Suns shatter the NBA record with 107 points in the first half of a 173-143 victory over the Denver Nuggets.

These ladies are champs It’s not easy keeping a championship team together, even when the players go way back together, enjoy each other’s company and prove it with the way they play and revel in each other’s success. Life happens.

Key members move on.

Nothing lasts forever.

Bet you thought I was referencing the Kansas City Royals, didn’t you?

Wrong.

We’re talking the Alvamar women’s golf team that has earned four Inter-Club gross championships in the past five seasons in a league that has eight Kansas Cityarea clubs, plus Alvamar, which joined in 1987.

“They didn’t go outside the (Kansas City) limits, but some players came here for guest days, loved the course, and they said, ‘Hey, Alvamar’s only 40, 45 minutes away.’ So they let us in,” said Elaine Brady, team captain from the beginning until handing the reins to Kristi Butler five years ago. Elaine and husband, Virgil Brady, are moving to Southern California in July.

“At this age, life is family,” Elaine Brady said. “That’s where our grandkids are.”

Family comes first, then golf.

“Well, it’s right up there anyway,” Brady said of family.

I allowed for the possibility that the one advantage Linda might enjoy involved hitting the ball straighter, so I chose the course with wider fairways, “strategery” being one of my many mental tkeegan@ljworld.com golf strengths.

Needless to say, Linda band John Butler, when crushed me and won she’s not playing with or 7&5.

Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Chiaka Ogbogu owns a 41.4 hitting percentage, Amy Neal averages 4.25 kills per set, and Neal scores more points per set (4.87) than any player in the league.

Those are just a few of the numbers that helped Texas — the only team to beat KU this season — sweep the Jayhawks on Oct. 23, in Payne’s hometown.

When KU gets a rematch on its home court,

Payne will play a prominent role. It wasn’t until the first weekend of the season, back in August, at Arkansas, when she realized she could impact the team in such a way. KU started going to its new right-side swinger for side-out plays, and sophomore setter Ainise Havili (No. 2 in the nation in assists per set, just 0.05 behind SMU’s Avery Acker’s mark of 12.29) started sending the ball in Payne’s direction when matches got tight.

“I’m steady, and I’m the one they look to for points,” Payne said. “So it’s a cool spot to be in.”

by Ellis. Self WAS asked if today’s game against Fort Hays State qualifies as a “big game” for Selden.

“I don’t know about big game. I just want to see how athletic we are, see if we can actually guard little guards,” Self said.

“That was ridiculous. We had simple switches in which guys were going right around us shooting layups. I want to see energy level. If a freshman (Carlton Bragg) can do it, I don’t understand why a junior cannot. I’m anxious to see how the older guys react after I’ve kind of been on their butt a few days.” l

More on Diallo: Self does not expect freshman Cheick Diallo to be cleared academically by the NCAA for tonight’s game. Self was asked Monday if he wishes he could openly campaign publicly on Diallo’s behalf.

“I would say that in the situation we’re in, we are in a partnership with the NCAA. That’s by their bylaws. That’s by the way the mission statement of the NCAA. The NCAA and member institutions are a partnership to try to work together to come out with not necessarily the answer that we want or the answer they want, but the right answer. So I can’t do what some will do (campaign) because that’s not the mission of this. The mission of this is to do the right thing based on the information that has been compiled,” Self said.

Of the eligibility case, Self said: “It’s beyond frustration. We haven’t commented on it, but whenever the process is still ongoing ... a lot of that is on us because we obviously aren’t content with the way the process is moving.

“We’ve got to do our job as far as create a situation in which the process moves in a more favorable direction toward Cheick if in fact that’s possible, which we 100 percent believe it is. At this point in time, I don’t have to say anything publicly because that will happen.

“It won’t necessarily have to come from the University of Kansas or the athletic department, but it’ll happen. When you see a 6-foot-9 inch kid sitting with a coat and tie on at the end of the bench, every camera that we play at is going to focus, and the announcers are going to talk about Cheick. That doesn’t mean we’re planting seeds. That’s a fact of the matter. Every game we play (in which) he’s

Kobe wants one more Olympics Miami (ap) — Kobe Bryant sounds like someone who wants to play beyond this season — if only for a few months.

Bryant said Monday that he still wants to be part of the team that USA Basketball will send to the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, a tournament that

theoretically could mark the end of his competitive basketball career if he retires at the conclusion of this NBA season. Bryant helped the U.S. win gold at the 2008 Beijing Games and 2012 London Games. “It would mean the world to me to be around those guys,� Bryant said in

 � � � � �

an interview with the Associated Press. “I think to be able to have a chance to continue the relationship that I already have with most of those guys, talking and just kind of being around each other and understanding that this is it, it’s just us being together, that would be fun.�

The Associated Press

Timberwolves 117, Hawks 107 Atlanta — Andrew Wiggins was hoping he wouldn’t lose his shooting touch as the Hawks kept pushing to wipe out a huge deficit. “I was feeling it,� he said. “My shot was falling. My teammates kept encouraging me, giving me the ball.�

Wiggins tied a career high with 33 points, KarlAnthony Towns added 17, and Minnesota blew a 34-point lead before snapping the Hawks’ seven-game winning streak on Monday night.

Atlanta never led until Paul Millsap’s runner with 3:26 remaining made it 107-106, but Wiggins scored the next seven points to prevent one of the biggest collapses in NBA history. “Any team down is going to come back fighting,� Wiggins said. “We knew that.�

Minnesota led 72-42 at halftime. The largest halftime deficit overcome to win was 34 points by Utah against Denver on Nov. 27, 1996, according to research by STATS dating to the 1951-52 season.

Jeff Teague finished with 24 points and Millsap had 22 for the Hawks.

The Timberwolves avoided what would have been the franchise’s biggest blown lead in a loss. They led by 29 before falling to Dallas on Dec. 30, 2008. “We kept coming in the huddle and saying that we’re going to win this game,� Towns said. “We had all the confidence in the world that we would get it together.�

It marked the first time in Wiggins’ two-year career that he’s had consecutive 30-point games.

Minnesota took its first 20-point lead midway through the second and went up 30 on Zach LaVine’s 3-pointer in the last minute of the period.

Atlanta was outrebounded 22-11 and had no offensive boards in the first half.

The Timberwolves’ 42 points in the second quarter and the Hawks’ 42 in the third tied for the second-highest of any quarter in the NBA this season.

Woods rushing into LHS record book

By Bobby Nightengale

LAWRENCE’S 3,000-YARD RUNNING BACKS

bnightengale@ljworld.com

Two wins away from a spot in the Class 6A football state championship game, Lawrence High senior running back JD Woods is only focused on his next game.

But his past 10 games will go down in the record books.

In last week’s playoff victory over Shawnee Mission North, Woods ran for 186 yards and four touchdowns, breaking the school’s single-season rushing record with 1,880 yards and 33 touchdowns this year. He eclipsed Michael Cosey’s previous record of 1,854 yards, set in 1991.

Woods already broke Cosey’s career rushing record last month, during a 35-yard touchdown run on a sweep to the right sideline against Olathe Northwest. He’s nearing 4,000 yards in his threeyear varsity career.

Cosey set the previous career and single-season rushing records while sharing the backfield with Adam Green, who nearly ran for 1,000 yards in ’91.

“I always thought Michael Cosey was the best player that I’ve ever seen in my entire life, and I’d probably still say that,” said Green, Lawrence’s defensive coordinator.

“But JD is definitely right up there.”

Woods, a state runnerup in the 100-meter dash last spring, is a faster back than Cosey. But they both are competitive — just in different ways.

“JD’s competitiveness is in your face,” Green said. “Michael was a bit more soft-spoken, kind of laid low, kind of laid back. Definitely a quiet competitiveness about him, for sure. JD is defi-

JD Woods — 3,856 yards, 57 TD Sophomore season: 309 yards, 4 TD Junior season: 1,667 yards, 20 TD Senior season (10 games): 1,880 yards, 33 TD Michael Cosey — 3,281 yards, 46 TD Sophomore season: 25 yards, 0 TD Junior season: 1,402 yards, 20 TD Senior season: 1,854 yards, 26 TD Brandon McAnderson — 3,052 yards, 41 TD Sophomore season: 559 yards, 5 TD Junior season: 704 yards, 11 TD Senior season: 1,789 yards, 25 TD

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR JD WOODS HEADS INTO THE END ZONE FOR HIS FOURTH TOUCHDOWN in a 63-7 victory over Olathe South on Oct. 9 at LHS. Woods owns the singleseason and career rushing marks at Lawrence High. nitely more of outgoing and loud.”

Woods is only the third running back in LHS history to surpass 3,000 career rushing yards, joining Cosey and Brandon McAnderson, a 2003 grad.

Before Lawrence split into a two-school town, it

was nearly impossible for a sophomore to play with the varsity squad.

McAnderson later ran for more than 1,000 yards during his senior season at Kansas University, helping the Jayhawks to an Orange Bowl victory in 2008. He’s now an as-

sistant coach at Shawnee Mission South and saw Woods run for 257 yards and four touchdowns against his team last month.

“He scored first play of the game, and it’s something as small as taking a bad angle,” McAnder-

son said of Woods. “You take a bad angle, that’s it.

That’s the only chance you have. You’re off on your aiming point, and he’s out of there.”

McAnderson closed in on Cosey’s records during his senior season but finished just 65 yards shy of the single-season record. It was special for McAnderson because he looked up to Cosey as a kid. His dad, Ramon, coached Cosey in little leagues. “(Cosey) was one of my young heroes,” McAnderson said. “Adam Green, I remember those two. That was like Marcus Allen and Bo Jackson to me.

“Having a chance to kind of approach those numbers was really awesome,” McAnderson added. “It was really, really a good opportunity. I could be a fan in some sense. I wanted to play for Lawrence High more than I wanted to play for KU or anybody when I was a kid. Having a chance to be in the same breath as Cosey was pretty awesome.”

Woods said break-

ing Cosey’s records was “emotional.” He’s cousins with Cosey, related through Cosey’s mother and Woods’ grandmother.

It was also a chance for Woods to honor his grandfather. He never thought he would have a chance at the record because he always expected to split carries in the backfield.

“My granddad, before he died, he’d always just tell me to be the best football player I could be,” Woods said. “Right after football season my sophomore year, he passed away. I just have been doing everything for him lately.”

Woods is thrilled he broke the records, but for now, he doesn’t have time to take his focus away from a state title. That was the same mindset for McAnderson, who lost in the state quarterfinals during his senior season.

“You’re always chasing that (state title),” McAnderson said. “It’s always bigger than any individual accomplishment. It’s not just something you say. You feel it.”
