Rental websites run afoul of city code

Leaves of Lawrence

——

But official says rules on Airbnb, others not strictly enforced

By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

Lawrence homeowners who rent their residences on a short-term basis through businesses such as Airbnb and Rent Like a Champion are violating city code, the city’s planning and development services director said Thursday.

But city officials most likely won’t do anything about it until they hear complaints.

“We know the industry is out there, but we haven’t had complaints, so we haven’t been active in enforcing the zoning code,” said city Planning and Development Services Director Scott McCullough.

McCullough said Lawrence has not updated codes to allow the service, which has become a popular accommodation alternative across the globe.

group of about a dozen, mostly black Kansas University students that carried signs onto the stage and temporarily took over Wednesday’s town hall forum on race to read a list of 15 demands they had of KU. I didn’t have much information on those demands in my story about the forum.

They were just one part of an event that lasted more than two hours and included many voices from students and faculty of all colors. (Also, the woman who read the demands on stage refused to give me her name or answer any questions about them.)

Thursday, the group — which called itself by the hashtag it’s using on Twitter, #rockchalkinvisiblehawk — published its demands in a tweet from @InvisibleHawks. Here’s their list, word for word.

Janis Bost, 64, of Lawrence, KS, passed away November 11, 2015.

She was born March 5, 1951 in St. Louis, MO, daughter of John and Dorothy Morris. Janis had a good sense of humor, was an avid story teller and loved to be with family, especially her grandchildren. She worked at the Lawrence Memorial Hospital for 33 years as a dietary clerk. Janis is survived by her husband, Jess (Sonny), three children, Kevin (Wendy), Kelly and Kiley (Mary), three grandchildren, Zachary, Sarah and Conner, siblings, JoAnn Coleman, Bonita (Jim) Cole, Stanley (Donna) Morris, John (Laura) Morris, Ronald (Sandy) Morris, Vicki (Dale) Haring and

Jimmy (Kathi) Morris.

She was preceded in death by her parents, five siblings; Joe Large, Edna Bell, Leon Large, Fay May and Donald Morris.

Memorial service will be held at 10am, Saturday, November 14 at the Lawrence First Church of the Nazarene, 1470 N. 1000 Road, Lawrence, KS 66046. The family suggests donations in Janis’ memory to the Diabetes Foundation or to the Church.

As city code is currently written, a home using Airbnb, Rent Like a Champion or a similar service to rent out space would be categorized as a transient accommodation, which would require a special-use permit.

Those seeking specialuse permits have to fill out an application, and then the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission holds a public hearing on it. If approved, it goes before the Lawrence City Commission.

The only type of transient accommodation currently allowed in the city’s single-family districts are bed and breakfasts, McCullough said. Bed and breakfasts,

The Kansas Bureau of Investigation determined that Dowdell had exchanged fire with a Lawrence police officer and that a bullet from the officer’s gun killed Dowdell, according to previous Journal-World reports.

undefeated record in the boxing ring for granted.

A year ago, the corporal in the Baldwin City Police Department won a decision in a close match in Kansas City’s Guns N Hoses fundraising boxing competition.

The event features a card of police officers, firefighters and first responders in three-round boxing matches.

The 12-bout event will be from 7 to 10 p.m. Saturday at the Kansas City Convention Center Grand Ballroom, 1502 Wyandotte St. With a year of experience under her belt, Springer knows what’s ahead of her. A fitness devotee, she said she was nonetheless exhausted last year after her three-rounds of

A member of her Superior, Neb., High School wrestling team, Springer admits to being a competitive person.

But Springer is attracted to the event for a much more important reason. The proceeds from the event go to the families of police officers,

This year, the event will be a little more than a month after two Kansas City, Mo., firefighters died Oct. 12 when a burning building collapsed around them.

That will add meaning and poignancy to this year’s event, and Springer’s hope is that people respond by attending. Unfortunately, Springer can name others in the greater Kansas City area who died on duty in the past year.

Topeka (ap) — Kansas lawmakers automatically are getting an 8.5 percent raise in their per diem allowance.

The Wichita Eagle reports the raise is because of a state law that increased lawmakers’ daily “subsistence payments” by more than 28 percent through the past seven years. The Legislature set it up in 2008 so members’ LEGISLATURE per diem rises with a federal allowance.

The per diem payments are the set amount lawmakers get to pay their living expenses each day they work in Topeka.

As of Oct. 1, the per diem amount is $140 a day, up from $129. The allowance payments are in addition to the state lawmakers’ base salary of $88.66 a day when they attend session and committee meetings.

Medicaid supporters kicked off committee Topeka (ap) — Three Republicans who support Medicaid expansion have been removed from a Kansas House committee that oversees health care issues.

The Wichita Eagle reports House Speaker Ray Merrick removed Rep. Barbara Bollier of Mission Hills, a retired physician; Rep. Susan Concannon, a Beloit Republican and committee vice chair with a background in rural health; and Rep. Don Hill, an Emporia Republican and a pharmacist.

Merrick said in a statement that Kansas citizens oppose an expansion of the health care program.

The chair of the committee, Rep. Dan Hawkins, a Wichita Republican, said he had not been informed of the committee changes ahead of the decision.

Bollier says she is saddened that three of the most knowledgeable people on health care issues have been removed.

Kansas is one of 20 states that have not expanded Medicaid under the federal Affordable Care Act.

State holds hearings on disability services Wichita (ap) — Kansas is holding hearings on proposed changes to how disabled Kansans receive services.

The Wichita Eagle reports the state held hearings Thursday to provide an update and answer questions about the proposed system. More hearings are planned for Monday.

Kansans with disabilities now receive medical care, residential and day services, as well as other help through Medicaid. People with disabilities receive services from seven Medicaid waivers, which are divided based on disability type. The state wants to combine the seven waivers into one universal waiver.

Hearings are being held in Wichita, Kansas City, Hays and Pittsburg.

Hyatt disaster memorial dedicated Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — A memorial has been dedicated in Kansas City to the 114 people killed 34 years ago in one of the nation’s worst structural disasters.

Two-hundred people from around the country turned out Thursday to view the 24-foot sculpture entitled “Sending Loves.” The names of those killed in the 1981 skywalk collapse at Kansas City’s former Hyatt Regency Hotel are etched in the memorial.

The collapse occurred during a dance that drew about 1,500 people to the hotel. Shortly after 7 p.m., the fourth-floor skywalk gave way, falling on a second-floor skywalk.

Then both dropped about 45 feet into the crowded lobby.

Besides the 114 people killed, more than 200 were injured. The memorial also honors the rescuers who rushed to the scene to cut people out of the twisted metal.

“It’s thrilling that this deserved recognition of Paula’s journey will draw attention to what we see as a model for successful 21st century teaching and learning,” said Rick Doll, superintendent of Lawrence public schools, in a news release.

The International Association for K-12 Online Learning recognized Barr for her innovative teaching in blended learning, and presented the annual award to her on Tuesday at its symposium in Orlando, Fla. The education technology company Blackboard, in cooperation with the Lawrence school district, nominated Barr for the award.

The district’s blended learning classrooms use Blackboard’s online learning platform to post material — including reading material, images, links, videos, quizzes and tests — for each lesson.

“On corn, everything over 100 bushels is a pretty good year,” Wilson said. “And beans, if you could make 35 or 40 bushels, anything over that is a pretty good year.”

Jodi Craig, chairman of the Freedom’s Frontier board, said trustees conducted a nationwide search before hiring Ogle to be the full-time executive director.

Thursday’s announcement came about two months after it was decided Freedom’s Frontier and the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau would establish themselves as separate entities.

One of the most important aspects of the blended learning method is choice, Barr explained. Students can work through lessons at their own pace, choose between working individually or in a small groups, and with or without teacher-led instruction. Barr said the method teaches skills that students will need in the real world.

“Students in a traditional classroom often will look to the teacher for all the answers,” she said. “What I’m trying to do is get these kids ready for a world where that is not what happens: you don’t just go to your teacher and expect the answer, go to your boss and expect the answer.”

Instead, Barr said her job is to direct them to use Blackboard or online research to find the answer themselves, and if they’ve made that effort, then she’ll sit down with them.

“It’s not that I don’t want to help them, it’s that I want them to develop their own confidence and self-reliance,” she said. “It empowers them.”

This week’s award is not the first to recognize Barr, who has been teaching in the Lawrence district for the past 20 years of her 33-year tenure. Barr was named Lawrence Teacher of the Year in 2014, received the Lawrence Schools Foundation’s Excellence in Teaching Award in 2004 and the Vicki Larason Landman Equity in Education Award in 2000.

“Parents and colleagues are in awe of her classroom and the work her students produce,” said Samrie Devin, Quail Run Elementary principal.

And the district would like to see more classrooms functioning like Barr’s.

“Lawrence Public Schools have committed to replicating the constant creative buzz of student engagement, collaboration and achievement found in (Barr’s) classroom throughout our district,” Doll said.

lar to last year in both regards,” Vajnar added.

“Perhaps there are a few more soybeans than a year ago and a few less corn bushels, but very close and both years are above average.”

Although the crops have yielded more than expected, both Wilson and Vajnar agree the prices aren’t what they used to be.

Prices for soybeans are around $8.69 per bushel — around $1.80 cheaper per-bushel than last year, Vajnar said while calling the decrease significant.

Corn prices are around $3.30 per bushel, about 15 cents lower than last

year, he said.

Wilson reported similar prices, noting that the dollar amount is on the low end for recent years.

Wilson said the low prices can make it difficult for farmers to reach a break-even point with their crops, but those prices are largely out of their hands.

“But it’s always good to have bushels,” he said.

“However much money you’re making, you’re usually happier when you have bushels. At least you’re doing your job right.”

interim director of Destination Management Inc. introduced the idea of splitting the organizations. The Lawrence City Commission approved the split in September.

The CVB, now known as eXplore Lawrence, is in the process of establishing its governing board, which will be tasked with naming a director.

Both organizations will continue to work in the Carnegie Building at Ninth and Vermont streets. They’ll also both receive city funding.

About $90,000 was allocated to Freedom’s Frontier for 2016.

The goal of Freedom’s Frontier is to bring awareness to the struggles during the Civil War in Kansas and Missouri. The National Heritage Area covers 29 eastern Kansas counties and 12 counties in western Missouri.

Ogle said he wants to highlight the unique history of the 41-county area.

One of his first projects would be to establish signage throughout the area that would help people identify significant sites

of the Civil-War era, he said.

“I’d be really excited if at some point we could see that people have a better understanding about what Freedom’s Frontier is,” Ogle said.

“Our story is unique and interesting; the border wars, the fight over desegregation, once people hear the story they’re surprised of the kind of conflict that occurred here as people defined who got what amount of freedom where.”

According to a Topeka Capital-Journal article about his resignation from WIBW, Ogle, who lives in Topeka, has previously worked in Florida, North Carolina, Nevada and North Carolina. He was a former president of Downtown Topeka Inc. and is the board chair-elect for the Greater Topeka Chamber of Commerce.

Ogle graduated from the University of Missouri School of Journalism.

Going Out A guide to what’s happening in Lawrence

Play time for ‘Doll’s House,’ ‘Single Shots’ this weekend

T

he next few weeks — this weekend in particular — promise more than a few options for theater lovers in Lawrence.

If you’re a recovering theater nerd like me (shoutout to Thespian Troupe 1820 at Wichita Southeast High School) who routinely listens to the “Les Miserables” soundtrack to get pumped for work in the morning, this is very exciting news.

Let’s review the selections, shall we?

First up: Kansas University Theatre’s take on Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House,” opening Saturday at Stage Too! in Murphy Hall’s Crafton-Preyer Theatre. This classic drama, penned in 1879, boasts some pretty ahead-of-itstime attitudes regarding gender roles.

In “A Doll’s House” (spoiler alert for a 130-year-old play), the housewife protagonist ends up leaving her condescending and overbearing husband in order to discover her own identity.

It’s a decidedly modern take on what it means to be a woman in a man’s world that still

feels relevant more than a century later, and in 2006, the centennial of Ibsen’s death, it held the distinction of being the most performed play in the world over that year.

Saturday’s show is sold out, but tickets for Sunday’s staging are still available. You can also catch “A Doll’s House” next week, Thursday through Nov. 22.

Elsewhere this weekend, EMU Theatre is staging “Single Shots and Sunday School,” a series of one-act plays, most of which boast plots and/or authors with Lawrence ties.

Slated for today, Saturday and Sunday at 8:30 p.m. at the Lawrence Percolator, “Single Shots and Sunday School” features seven monologues, among them “Hot Georgia Sunday” by

Sunday’s race, slated for 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., should attract about 300 participants to Centennial Park, says Toni Dixon, manager of marketing and communications at eXplore Lawrence.

It’s the city’s first year hosting the Championships, though the 360 Cup Cyclocross races have taken place here in recent years. The 360 Racing Club and eXplore Lawrence are organizing this weekend’s event.

Given Cyclocross’ “free-for-all” nature and all the tricky elements racers will have to wrangle, spectators (who can watch at no cost) should have a lot to take in.

Men’s and women’s races should each last about 30 to 45 minutes.

A free kids’ race will take place after the 12:15 p.m. race concludes, with races resuming at 1:45 p.m.

Tattoos or piercings: Seven piercings, one tattoo of my mother’s signature off of my birth certificate where her scar was from the first time they found breast cancer.

What’s your spirit animal? Probably an all-black cat. I have an all-black cat and he’s very sassy like me and very cuddly as well, so he’s a loving introvert.

Describe your style: I like palewave aesthetics, so I like lighter colors. I’m a fan of contrast and layering at the same time, so I try to do that, and I find every excuse I can to wear a watch.

Fashion trends you love: I love the idea of streetwear brands. That’s really cool.

Fashion trends you hate: I’m not a huge fan of everyone wearing just Vans, regardless of what outfit it is; guys wearing sport coats over loose-fitting jeans; people that just rep Nike — just repping a single huge, Triple-A product like that and having big brands plastered all over them.

Fashion influences: Kanye West is huge because his neutral color palettes are really important.

What’s your spirit animal? For some reason, I was instinctively going to say a giraffe but I’m not really sure why, but the fact that that came out of me probably means it’s a giraffe.

Movies, TV portray sororities in a negative light Dear Annie: I am in a sorority and proudly wear my greek letters.

However, when I go outside the campus, I receive a lot of negative feedback.

People assume things about me that are not true, and this can be very hurtful.

They think I haze, hang out promiscuously with frat boys, drink, do drugs and care only about getting a “Mrs.” degree.

Let me tell you, this is not what greek life is about. I, as well as a few of my sorority sisters and fraternity cousins, am on a fullride scholarship and must maintain a 3.5 GPA or better.

We take random drug tests to make sure our organization is clean. We have strict rules when it comes to being with members

Bob and David stream today In the brave new world of television, networks and streaming services think nothing of poaching talent, picking up discarded series and even adapting the identity of their competitors.

As a Netflix programmer once stated in 2013, “The goal is to become HBO faster than HBO can become us.”

Along those lines, Netflix launches “W/ Bob & David” today, starring Bob Odenkirk and David Cross. This is an extremely limited, four-episode halfhour series, complete with an hourlong “Making Of” special.

Fans of the two will recall their seminal work, “Mr. Show With Bob and David,” which ran on HBO from 1995 to 1998. In addition to the hosts, the series introduced the world to talents including Sarah Silverman, Jack Black, Mary Lynn Rajskub and Scott Aukerman.

Cross is perhaps best known for playing the delusional Tobias Funke on “Arrested Development,” the canceled Fox series famously revived for a concluding season on Netflix. The return of “Arrested” was more of a publicity boon for Netflix than an exercise in original programming.

One can’t help having the same feeling about “Bob & David.”

Odenkirk has transcended comedy, playing the slippery lawyer Saul Goodman on “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul,” as well as appearing in the first season of FX’s “Fargo” and the acclaimed 2013 drama “Nebraska.”

In 2014, David Cross made his directorial debut with the small independent comedy “Hits,” an amusing and absurd meditation on the effects of media on marginal characters in Liberty, N.Y. “Hits” can also be streamed on Netflix.

Remember the show “Unforgettable”? You know the one starring Poppy Montgomery as the NYPD detective with a perfect memory? The show that CBS never seemed to air but also never seemed to cancel?

How could you forget?

Like a recurring dream or persistent memory, it has shown up again, this time on A&E. But not tonight, as originally announced.

Fans of “Unforgettable” will have to wait another two weeks for the series to return for a fourth season on Nov. 27.

Tonight’s other highlights Contestants collaborate with street buskers in Krakow, Poland, on “The Amazing Race” (7 p.m., CBS).

A former champion offers advice on “MasterChef Junior” (7 p.m., Fox, TV-PG).

Orphans adopt Rosalee as their surrogate mother on “Grimm” (8 p.m., NBC).

Terry Crews hosts “World’s Funniest” (8 p.m., Fox, TV-PG).

Younger entrepreneurs get the spotlight on “Shark Tank” (8 p.m., ABC, TV-PG).

lars for abuse victims every semester.

We pay for our badge, our shirts, our events, our formal dances, our recruitment expenses, our insurance and our dues, which are used for scholarships for deserving young women.

Opinion

Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com l Friday, November 13, 2015

EDITORIALS

Campus guns Even though it’s not likely to change much, state university students and faculty should make their opinions of concealed carry on campus heard.

W

hat do Kansas University students, faculty and staff think about the prospect of allowing concealed firearms on campus?

Students now are being surveyed on that question, but the school’s University Senate already is talking about fighting the new law, which is set to be implemented on state university campuses in July 2017.

The bigger question may be: Do the opinions of students, faculty and staff — the people who occupy KU’s campus day in and day out — really matter?

The law legalizing concealed carry in most public buildings went into effect in 2013, but universities received an exemption until July 2017. With that deadline looming, discussions about concealed firearms are heating up at KU and other university campuses.

Last week, the Kansas Board of Regents released an amended draft policy on weapons and is seeking feedback across the state.

Informal reactions to the new law have been overwhelmingly negative at KU. At their meeting last week, members of the University Senate expressed fear about the impact of the law and discussed ways to express their displeasure to state legislators. Last week, the Board of Regents’ Students Advisory Committee emailed a survey to students at all state universities asking such questions as “Do you think concealed guns should be prohibited or allowed in campus buildings, at sporting events or in outdoor areas?” and “How would allowing concealed carry on your campus affect your decision to attend this university?”

The committee hopes that having solid data on student opinions will strengthen their case to modify the new law.

The Board of Regents is in the middle on this debate. Its policy clarifies the provisions of the law and sets standards for secure gun storage, but the job of drawing up specific policies is left to individual universities. The board has no power to modify or repeal the concealed-carry law passed by the Legislature and signed by the governor.

Lawmakers weren’t particularly interested in what university officials thought about concealed carry when they passed this law, and they probably aren’t very interested now.

It seems like a long shot that state universities will have much impact on the extension of concealed carry to their campuses, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t make their voices heard.

The diplomatic high wire over Syria Washington — “Syrian peace talks” is one of those phrases where the soothing words don’t fit the nightmare reality. But the indefatigable Secretary of State John Kerry is making another try this weekend in Vienna, and there’s more to this effort than just his good intentions.

What’s driving this round of diplomacy is the hope that Russia needs a settlement of the Syria mess even more than the United States does.

President Vladimir Putin intervened militarily, elbows out, in late September. But the campaign has been frustrating for Moscow so far, and Russia’s resources are limited. A gradual political transition may serve Putin’s interests.

Unfortunately, this Syrian peace process doesn’t include any Syrians yet. That would seem a fatal defect, but Kerry & Co. are working on the problem.

Kerry’s biggest achievement has been getting Saudi Arabia and Iran to sit down at the table with the U.S. and Russia. The Saudi-Iranian feud is at the heart of the Syrian conflict, which is in some ways a proxy war.

This negotiation is at least a step back from the sectarian inferno.

President Obama has enlisted Sheik Mohammed bin Zayed, the military leader of the United Arab Emirates, in coaxing the Saudis to participate. The Iranians have been wary diplomatic

The Syria talks are proceeding in a careful, step-by-step process that’s as delicate as building a house of cards. partners, too. Iranian hawks don’t like the negotiations, but they seem to have been overruled by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who doesn’t want Iranians coming home from Syria in body bags.

The Syria talks are proceeding in a careful, stepby-step process that’s as delicate as building a house of cards. Three working groups have been established to focus on the elements that would be necessary for de-escalation and eventual agreement.

The first working group is trying to define the common terrorist enemies shared by the U.S., Russia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Europe.

This enemies list has two obvious candidates: the Islamic State, and Jabhat alNusra, the al-Qaeda affiliate in Syria.

The finesse point is deciding whether a militant Islamist group called Ahrar al-Sham, which is backed by the Saudis and Qataris but sometimes fights with the extremists, should also be on the blacklist. The U.S. and Britain seem willing to treat Ahrar al-Sham as a part of the solution, rather than the problem, if it behaves more responsibly. Ahrar alSham may determine by its actions which side it will be on.

Working group No. 2 is weighing who should represent the Syrian opposition if peace talks broaden.

The opposition is a miasma of different groups, personalities and agendas, so this isn’t an easy task. The U.S. and its allies have their roster of preferred groups.

Russia has its own list of opposition figures who have been invited to Moscow for talks.

The challenge is to merge these lists without triggering a new round of feuding. One name that’s said to be on both U.S. and Russian lists is Moaz al-Khatib, a former leader of the opposition coalition. He’s a respected figure around whom a broader front might be constructed.

Staffan de Mistura, the U.N. special envoy on Syria, would probably oversee the discussions, if the opposition could agree on some basic positions. De Mistura has tried, without much success, to negotiate local ceasefires, but he is respected

by both the opposition and some members of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. If the stars are in alignment, it would be Russia’s job to push the Assad regime into the negotiations, too.

Assad’s tenure as president is the most divisive issue of all. Kerry got the negotiations rolling last month by convincing everyone to put the Assad problem in the “too hard” basket, for now. But it’s understood by everyone (including the Russians) that any viable peace process must lead to Assad’s eventual departure, within two years or so. Otherwise, it’s a dead letter.

The third working group is charged with what may be the most delicate issue — how to organize humanitarian aid if the other diplomatic cogs are in place.

Delivery of assistance will be impossible unless there’s the equivalent of a ceasefire. The regime and opposition elements that agree to the cease-fire could then, in theory, work together (or at arm’s length) to defeat the common terrorist enemies.

Like any peace process that’s contemplated while a war is raging, this one is a series of “ifs” stacked on top of each other. But Kerry has made a start, and as he showed during the Iran nuclear talks, he is one persistent diplomat.

PUBLIC FORUM

LHS strengths To the editor: The Journal-World published an article (11/8) containing specific statistics meant to draw the community’s attention to the widening achievement gap between Lawrence High and Free State. The article, while shining a light on Lawrence High’s lower graduation rates and higher numbers of students receiving free or reduced lunches, does not tell the whole story. I am a student at LHS, and serve as Junior Class President. It is very apparent, to both LHS and FSHS students, that disparities exist between the two schools. The article, while making an important point, offers no true solution to fix these issues, the biggest question being how to help students from lower socioeconomic classes achieve in their academic ventures.

Instead of reiterating what we already know, students, teachers, and parents want to have discussions about how to strengthen the already strong aspects of both schools, and want to see actual steps taken to lessen the academic achievement gap between the two schools.

In response to the article, LHS’s students, teachers,

and alumni are voicing how Lawrence High has benefitted them in the classroom, but also in their real world experiences. Shannon Draper, an English teacher at LHS, took to Twitter, creating the hashtag #LHSStrong. While LHS is “statistically academically inferior” to FSHS, statistics do not solely define the experiences had by students in school. One LHS alum tweeted “140 characters isn’t enough to articulate an LHS education, nor are one dimensional socioeconomic statistics.” Many of the responses voiced a similar opinion. While the statistics try to prove that LHS students trail FSHS academically, in no way does this reflect the care and support provided by the LHS community for its students.

Trust issues To the editor: As news unfolds, we are constantly reminded that our elected, appointed, or “wannabe” officials are constantly lying. They say “I did nothing wrong” and take the Fifth (IRS, VA); or “so and so is not an adviser” (S. Blumenthal), but that is false; claim no knowledge

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 13, 1915: years “Lawrence arose ago early today and IN 1915 opened its eyes to see a clear sky and perfect football weather.

By 8 o’clock the streets were beginning to fill and in the student district and at the University many old grads were parading in cars or walking over the campus and the familiar streets. As the morning advanced the football spirit grew and at noon the city was taken by the factions of the rival camps.... The Nebraska team, accompanied by Coach Jumbo Steihm, arrived shortly before 11 o’clock from Kansas City where they spent yesterday preparing for the contest.

Confidence is literally oozing from the Nebraskans and none of them will be contented with a victory by a margin of less than 21 points, they say.... The streets of the city are gaily decorated in the colors of the two schools, and the red and white is everywhere intermixed with the crimson and the blue. Nebraskans will never be able to claim that they have been treated in any but the most hospitable fashion.”

“Two yeggmen blew the postoffice safe at Baldwin with nitro-glycerin early this morning and escaped with $400 in money and $1,600 worth of stamps in small denominations.

Two muffled explosions were heard with a short interval between about 1:15 o’clock. Students of Baker University who were keeping late hours after a holiday at the school heard the explosions. Two of them were southwest of the postoffice about half a block distant when the reports were heard.

They went to investigate and at the corner of the block in which the postoffice is located were confronted by a man with a gun who ordered them to move to another part of town. They went at once. ... The big postoffice safe was shattered by the second explosion. The heavy doors were splintered and a hole was blown in the ceiling of the room....

of email arrangements on TV (60 Minutes), but hide emails that prove it’s a lie; or promote a story (Bengazi video) to hide policy flaws.

The public should demand the truth, no matter how appalling or unsettling it is.

Taking oaths of office, our appointed and elected officials swear to uphold the Constitution, our laws, and faithfully execute their duties. Instead, they selectively enforce laws, ignore regulations and decide to interpret regulations as they see fit.

When exposed, nothing is done. They deny, hide, delay, procrastinate or blame the system. They collect their bonuses and pensions and move on to become lobbyists.

Many people distrust government in any form.

Time and again our officials have shown they are undeserving. Before you vote next time, ask yourself if that person addressed the truth about solutions to our problems, or are they pushing another agenda?

It’s sometimes hard to grasp statistics like these.

Harder still is solving the complex issues that keep people in poverty.

The design students in associate professor Tyler Galloway’s Designing Social Interactions classes at KU were tasked to use local statistics on poverty as inspiration for the display.

Galloway said the course is usually focused on high-tech skills such as website design. But he said the students have enjoyed the challenge of developing an exhibit that viewers can walk through.

“The goal is to create empathy in the viewer, and the students have done a good job of moving beyond the statistics and making this feel human,” Galloway said.

Two of Galloway’s classes designed concepts for Brighter Tomorrow, which they presented to United Way representatives. Students from the winning team then created and installed the exhibit.

If you only had enough money to buy gas for your car so you could get to work, or to pay your water bill so you could shower, which would you choose?

The 21,720 people in Douglas County who live in poverty, according to the U.S. Census, have to make no-win choices like these all the time.

At the Brighter Tomorrow interactive exhibit, created by United Way of Douglas County and Kansas University visual design students, viewers will be able to walk through the daily life of a family in poverty and make these kinds of hard choices, too.

Open from 2 to 6 p.m.

Saturday at the Lawrence Public Library, this free, self-guided experience is designed to raise understanding, spark empathy, and fuel community conversations on poverty.

“Many people in our community are not aware of the large number of people in Douglas County who live in poverty.

They believe that Douglas County is doing just fine,” pointed out Erika Dvorske, president and CEO of the United Way of Douglas County. “But the reality is, many are not doing fine.”

Nearly a quarter of Douglas County residents live within 125 percent of the federal poverty level, according to the U.S. Census, Dvorske noted. For a family of four, that’s a monthly income of $2,021.

When your income is severely limited, so are your choices. For example, Dvor-

Laser strikes on planes hit record

Over 5,000 this year; 20 one night this week Bart Jansen USA TODAY

Laser strikes on planes are growing even after the federal government enacted tougher penalties for people caught shining the devices.

From Wednesday night through Thursday morning, federal authorities fielded reports of 20 laser strikes on aircraft, adding to an already record-breaking

number of strikes this year.

The Federal Aviation Administration recorded 5,352 laser strikes through Oct. 16, up from 2,837 for all of 2010. Such strikes can temporarily blind pilots during take off and landing. Those convicted of pointing a laser at a plane can be sentenced to 20 years in prison and fined $250,000.

In the latest incidents, pilots and airports reported three laser strikes in the New York City area to the FAA. Crews landing at Dallas Love Field reported another three. Other airports reporting strikes included Jamestown, N.Y.;

Los Angeles, Oakland, Sacramento, Palm Springs and Ontario, Calif.; Covington and Danville, Ky.; Salt Lake City; Albuquerque; Detroit; St. Petersburg, Fla.; Springfield, Ill.; and San Juan, Puerto Rico. “None of the pilots reported injuries,” Lynn Lunsford, an FAA spokeswoman, said.

“Nevertheless, shining a laser at an aircraft is a federal crime.”

Some airports have reported more than 100 laser strikes this year: Los Angeles had 197, Phoenix had 183, Houston had 151, Las Vegas had 132 and Dallas-Fort Worth had 115.

On July 15, during a 90-minute period, 11 airliners and one military aircraft reported laser strikes near New York City-area airports.

Those incidents remain under investigation by the FAA, FBI and New Jersey State Police.

In 2011, the FAA began imposing civil penalties on people who pointed lasers at planes. Then, the maximum fine was $11,000.

Congress upped the penalties in 2012 and made it a federal crime to point lasers at an aircraft.

From February 2012 through 2013, the FAA investigated 152 cases and took action in 96.

Court may face abortion rematch

KURDS SEVER ISLAMIC STATE SUPPLY LINE

Justices to decide whether to address state restrictions PESHMERGA VIA TWITTER

Richard Wolf USA TODAY

Nearly a quartercentury after its last major ruling on abortion created a fragile balance between women’s rights and state restrictions, the Supreme Court may be ready for a rematch.

Like the last time, the debate would unfold in the midst of a presidential election.

The justices could decide as early as Friday whether to hear a challenge to tough new limits placed on abortion clinics and doctors in Texas. The restrictions — forcing doctors to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals and requiring clinics to measure up to outpatient surgery centers — threaten to leave the sprawling state with 10 clinics, clustered in four population centers and along the Mexican border.

A similar law in Mississippi, which the justices also could agree to consider, threatens to close that state’s lone abortion clinic. Because of that, it was struck down by the same federal appeals court that upheld the Texas restrictions.

If the court takes up one or both cases, its ruling next year will help clarify its 1992 decision in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, when a deeply divided court upheld the right to abortion while letting states impose restrictions that do not block women from getting services.

“This will be the most important abortion rights case before the Supreme Court in almost 25 years,” says Nancy Northup, president of the Center for ReWASHINGTON

U.S. advisers help direct airstrikes to attain victory in Iraq Jim Michaels

Sinjar Syria

USA TODAY

Kurdish fighters backed by U.S. airstrikes and advisers severed a critical Islamic State supply line between Iraq and Syria on Thursday, achieving one of the biggest military victories against the radical group since it swept into the region in 2014.

The offensive by 7,500 Kurdish forces to reclaim Sinjar in northern Iraq seized control of a large stretch of a major road that connects Raqqa, the Islamic State’s de facto capital in Syria, with Islamic State-occupied Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city.

The militants have used Highway 47 as an essential lifeline to move supplies and fighters between the two countries.

The U.S.-led coalition has conducted 36 airstrikes in support of the operation, the Pentagon said.

The Kurdish government said some airstrikes targeted militant car bombs.

tioned on nearby Sinjar mountain to assist Kurdish forces in calling in airstrikes, but the Pentagon said they remained distant from the fighting. “They’re providing assistance in determining where airstrikes are being carried out,” Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook said.

The offensive is a key test of the Obama administration’s strategy of using local ground forces, backed by U.S.-airstrikes and other support, to fight the militant group. The strategy has had more success with the Kurds, who have proved themselves effective fight-

ers, than Iraq’s armed forces.

The Kurds, who live in a semiautonomous region of northern Iraq, have driven the militants from parts of their territory with help from American advisers.

Iraq’s military recently recaptured Beiji, an important oil refinery, but an offensive begun in June to dislodge militants from Ramadi, a key Sunni city west of Baghdad, has not succeeded.

The latest Kurdish offensive represents a major blow to the Islamic State, which declared large areas of Iraq and Syria to be under Islamic rule. Sinjar is defended by up to 600 militants, according to the Kurdish security council. “Severing that supply route will impact ISIL’s ability to move men and material between those two hubs,” said Army Col. Steve Warren, a military spokesman in Baghdad, using an acronym for the Islamic State.

Facebook reports surge in government data requests U.S. asks more than any other country Jessica Guynn @jguynn USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO Facebook says government requests for consumer data surged in the first half of 2015.

Requests from around the world for information on users of Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp and Instagram increased 18% to 41,214 from the first half of 2014.

The United States made more data requests than any other nation.

It requested data on 26,579 accounts in the first half of 2015, up from 21,731 accounts in the second half of 2014, according to Facebook.

In about 80% of the requests, Facebook provided some data.

Facebook was asked to take down 20,568 pieces of content in the first half of 2015, more than double the 9,707 requests it received in the second half of 2014.

India made most of these requests, asking Facebook to restrict 15,155 pieces of content.

KAREN BLEIER, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Facebook has 1.5 billion users.

“Overall, we continue to see an increase in content restrictions and government requests for data globally,” Facebook’s deputy general counsel Chris Sonderby said in a blog post.

Facebook, which has 1.5 billion users, began providing biannual updates on government requests in August 2013 after Edward Snowden alleged U.S. tech companies, including Facebook, hand over personal information of users to national intelligence agencies.

The allegations threatened to undermine the trust consumers place in Facebook with the most intimate details of their lives.

At the time, Facebook denied that it gave the U.S. government special access to servers or complied with overly broad requests for users’ information and com-

munication. The tech industry has continued to fight for greater transparency on government data requests to dispel concerns that companies violate user privacy.

“As we have emphasized before, Facebook does not provide any government with ‘back doors’ or direct access to people’s data,” Sonderby said. “We scrutinize each request we receive for legal sufficiency, whether from an authority in the U.S., Europe or elsewhere. If a request appears to be deficient or overly broad, we push back hard and will fight in court, if necessary.”

VOICES

In Burma, hope is replacing despair Running a country is a very different thing than being a symbol of resistance and bravery.

Thomas Maresca

Special for USA TODAY

In the frenetic atmosphere of covering Sunday’s election in Burma, which produced a huge victory for pro-democracy forces, there were more than a few moments when I had to stop and try to take it all in, to reconcile what I was seeing in front of me with my earliest experience of a military-ruled nation some eight years before.

I first visited Burma, also known as Myanmar, in 2007, when I spent a month traveling and photographing the country.

And as remarkable a place as I found it to be, by the time my 28-day visa expired, I was more than ready to leave and deeply ambivalent about ever coming back. For all the wonderful people I met, for the natural beauty of Inle Lake, the spectacular ruins of Bagan, the fascinating, crumbling glory of Rangoon, there was a darkness, a cloud of oppression and despair, that had seeped in like bad weather.

On election day last Sunday, I kept recalling quick flashes of that first trip, little everyday moments: walking down a street in Rangoon, an older man quickly approaching me. He joined me stride for stride, rushing questions to me in hushed tones.

Where was I from? What did I

YE AUNG THU, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Burma’s opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi accepts flowers at a polling station in Kawhmu township, Rangoon. do? I told him I was a writer.

“I’m a writer too,” he said. “But I can’t write the truth. If I do ...”

He held his arms out, wrists together in a pantomime that meant: handcuffs.

I would see that same gesture again and again. Another time, I came across some farmers tilling a strange crop on the side of the road. I asked my guide what it was and he told me jatropha, a biodiesel plant. The military government was using forced labor in a scheme to grow it around the country. I asked the

farmers what would happen if they didn’t grow it. Handcuffs.

The memories came back, in such stark contrast to what I was seeing before me. The college students who one night drove me around the streets of Mandalay on their motorbikes, telling me about their hopes for the future, hopes that centered on one thing: finding a way to get out of Burma.

And now, here I was on election day, with voters lining up before dawn to cast their ballots.

This time, the younger ones

were eager to talk about the brighter future they saw for Burma. The older ones were a bit more circumspect, some seeming almost in shock that this moment had finally come. More than one told me they had been waiting 50 years for this day.

As the returns came in and it became apparent that the National League for Democracy (NLD), the party headed by democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi, was on its way to a landslide victory, the sense of exhilaration grew. An impromptu rally in front of the NLD headquarters got more raucous as the night went on, red-clad supporters singing and waving NLD flags and hugging strangers.

And still, we know that beyond these giddy moments, a complicated reality awaits. We know that the military that ruled the country so brutally is not going anywhere, and stands to gain perhaps more than anyone from the continued economic development of the country.

And we know that Suu Kyi, who remains barred from becoming president, is not going to be able to perform miracles, that

running a country is a very different thing than being a symbol of resistance and bravery — especially working under a constitution that has been written to guarantee the military a central role no matter what the results of the election are. Ma Thida, a prominent human rights activist and former prisoner of conscience, told me that she is cautious that many voters may have outsize expectations of what Suu Kyi will be able to accomplish.

And Burma’s greatest shame, its treatment of the Muslim minority Rohingya, continues unabated. The hopelessness I saw in the villages of Rakhine state, where most of Burma’s 1.3 million Rohingya live, was devastating. As the monsoon season ends, the flow of Rohingya migrants is expected to pick up again. I fear that the next time Burma makes headlines, it will be because of another international crisis as a new wave of desperate Rohingya flee for their lives.

But it’s impossible not to think Burma is going to be a better place than it was yesterday or last week — and certainly than it was years ago when I first visited. Where once I saw only despair in Burma, for a few days this week I was privileged to see dignity and hope and courage on display in a way that I’m glad I’ll never be able to forget.

Study finds child abuse in homes of returning troops Tom Vanden Brook and Ray Locker USA TODAY

The babies and toddlers of soldiers returning from deployment face the heightened risk of abuse in the six months after the parent’s return home, a risk that increases among soldiers who deploy more frequently, according to a study scheduled for release Friday.

The study will be published in the American Journal of Public Health. The abuse of soldiers’ children exposes another hidden cost from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that killed more than 5,300 U.S. troops and wounded more than 50,000.

Research by the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia looked at WASHINGTON

families of more than 112,000 soldiers whose children were 2 years old or younger for the period of 2001 to 2007, the peak of the Iraq War. Researchers examined Pentagon-substantiated instances of abuse by a soldier or another caregiver and from the diagnoses of medical personnel within the military’s health care system.

“This study is the first to reveal an increased risk when soldiers with young children return home from deployment,” David Rubin, co-director of the hospital’s PolicyLab and the report’s senior author, said in a statement. “This really demonstrates that elevated stress when a soldier returns home can have real and potentially devastating consequences for some military families.”

Rubin said the study will help the Army and other services learn

“when the signal (of stress) is the highest and the timing for intervention to help the returning soldiers.”

The Army said it will use the information to help serve soldiers and their families better.

“While incidents of child abuse and neglect among military families are well below that of the general population, this study is another indicator of the stress deployments place on soldiers, family members and caregivers,” said

Karl Schneider, principal deputy assistant secretary of the Army for manpower and reserve affairs.

“Since the end of the data collection period in 2007, the Army has enacted myriad programs to meet these kinds of challenges head on.”

The study focused on the first two years of a child’s life because of the elevated risk for life-threatening abuse among infants exceeds risk in other age groups. In all, there were 4,367 victims from the families of 3,635 soldiers.

The rate of abuse and neglect doubled during the second deployment compared with the first, the study found. For soldiers deployed twice, the highest rate of abuse and neglect occurred during the second deployment and was usually a caregiver other than the soldier.

States seek ‘overdue’ clarity on abortion v CONTINUED FROM 1B

productive Rights, which filed the lawsuit on behalf of several abortion clinics.

“It’s overdue,” says Steven Aden, senior counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom, which has submitted briefs on behalf of several states. “We have more litigation now over the meaning of the Casey standard than we’ve ever had.”

By clearing up the ambiguity left by the 1992 ruling, which said states can impose restrictions that do not pose an “undue burden,” the justices could serve notice to lower courts across the country and hand a victory to one side in a debate that has raged since their Roe v. Wade decision legalized abortion in 1973.

Emboldened by the court’s most recent action on abortion — its 2007 ruling that upheld bans on “partial-birth,” or late-term, abortions — state legislatures have enacted hundreds of restrictions in recent years. They range from 24-hour waiting periods and parental notification laws, mostly upheld by lower courts, to bans on abortion after six or 12 weeks, which courts have blocked.

“The politics of this has always been to push the court more and more to give deference to state legislators to restrict abortion rights,” says Kathryn Kolbert, director of the Athena Center for Leadership Studies at Barnard College, who argued the 1992 case before the court on behalf of Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania.

At the same time, the number of abortions in the USA has dropped from more than 1.5 million in 1992 to slightly more than 1 million in 2011. That marked the lowest rate of abortions for women ages 15-44 since 1973.

MASS GRAVE TELLS A HORROR STORY

Burial site in Iraq prompts soldier’s plea: ‘We need the Western coalition to protect us.’

Sara Carter

American Media Institute SINUNI , IRAQ

A few thousand people once lived in this tiny Iraqi village 270 miles north of Baghdad. Today, it is a ghost town with few signs of life — and a mass grave near where members of the Yazidi sect were slaughtered by Islamic State militants.

It’s one of 11 mass graves discovered in northern Iraq by Kurdish residents who fear other undiscovered burial sites exist in neighboring Syria. Those graves have yet to be unearthed because their locations are under Islamic State control.

Human Rights Watch estimates the militants killed 3,000 to 5,000 people and captured 3,000 Yazidi women as sex slaves when they swept through the area in August 2014.

On Thursday, Kurdish fighters backed by U.S.-led coalition airstrikes launched a ground offensive to recapture the nearby Iraqi town of Sinjar, which became a symbol of Islamic State brutality when the Islamic extremists began murdering the Yazidis 15 months ago.

The grave here was discovered in February by a Kurdish sheep herder. Among the 37 skeletal remains were women and children.

The victims had been herded together and beheaded or shot.

During a recent visit, dirt could still be seen piled high from the tractor that Islamic State forces used to dig the 7-foot-deep grave.

About 30 feet away, two concrete chicken coops stood where the militants held the victims before they were taken to the grave and killed, Kurdish soldiers said.

Family members identified the decomposed victims through their clothing, trinkets and what little had been in their pockets, according to the soldiers.

Inside the grave, blood had darkened on the brittle dirt walls.

A deflated rubber ball rested alongside a toy gun inside the pit.

Unmatched sandals, torn clothing and a bone from a finger could be seen among the rubble. A foot away, a baby doll’s head rolled in the wind amid spent shell casings.

What silenced Kurdish soldier Qasam Ismael was a dusty purple blouse worn by a girl perhaps no older than 2 that was clinging to the rocks of a memorial erected inside the grave.

Members of the Yazidi minority searched for clues in February that might lead to missing relatives in the remains of people killed by the Islamic State, a day after Kurdish forces discovered a mass grave near the Iraqi village of Sinuni.

A makeshift memorial made of stones is the only sign marking a Yazidi mass grave in northern Iraq.

“Some of these people are from my village,” Ismael said through an interpreter. “They lined them up on the edge of this wall and beheaded them. Then put them in the grave all together. When I arrived, their flesh was all gone.

There was a little girl I recognized by her hair. It was blond.”

“We want the world to recognize this genocide,” Ismael said.

“We are Kurds, Yazidi, and we don’t want to be an Arabic region any more. We need the Western coalition to protect us and help us fight these monsters.”

The Islamic State calls Yazidis “devil worshipers” because they are not followers of Islam.

Islamic State militants killed more than 700 Yazidis in Kocho, another small village in northern Iraq, in August 2014. American airstrikes pushed back the invaders, allowing Yazidi fighters to reenter the village. They described a massacre, with bodies piled on top of each other as pools of blood covered the streets.

The Free Yazidi Foundation and the U.S.-based human-rights group Yazda detailed those massacres and the Sinuni grave in a report to the International Criminal Court (ICC) at The Hague, Netherlands. The savage rapes of young girls were detailed in the report. Boys between 8 and 15 years old were “taught how to load and unload guns, shoot using live bullets and launch small and medium-sized rockets and forced to watch videos of beheadings.”

However, because Syria and Iraq are not signatories to The Hague treaty, the ICC ruled in August that it had no territorial jurisdiction over crimes committed by Islamic State militants.

Nariman Hassan, a Yazidi mother who escaped Islamic State militants last year from Bashiqa, said the situation remains perilous for many Yazidi families.

“We left everything behind,” she said. “But the most important thing that we left behind was our children’s future.”

Ismael said his people feel betrayed. “Arab villagers in our province assured the people who were unable to leave that (the Islamic State) would not harm them,” he said. “They lied to us.”

Sanders to highlight differences with Clinton Trailing in polls, Vermont senator needs to find a spark in Iowa debate

Nicole Gaudiano USA TODAY

WASHINGTON In case voters haven’t noticed, Sen. Bernie Sanders wants to make it clear that he and Democratic presidential campaign rival Hillary Clinton are very different candidates.

The Vermont independent, a self-described Democratic socialist, said the first Democratic debate on Oct. 13 showed he needs to “pay more attention” to distinguishing himself from the more moderate Clinton.

When he and Clinton face off again on Saturday in Des Moines, Sanders will portray himself as more willing to take on Wall Street and better able to reform a corrupt campaign finance system, said Tad Devine, Sanders’ senior adviser. Sanders also may try to raise questions about Clinton’s commitment to progressive positions Sanders has promoted for years regarding trade and the

environment.

“She and I have very different points of view on a number of issues,” Sanders told the Burlington (Vt.) Free Press recently. “Also, how we came to our point of view — and when we came to our point of view — is something that I think the voters in the Democratic primary process should know about, and they will know about.”

Polls suggest Sanders’ campaign needs a new spark since the country began to “feel the Bern” in August and September. He’s trailing Clinton an average 21.6 percentage points in national polls, according to RealClearPolitics. In Iowa, he’s behind by an average 24 points, and the race has become competitive in New Hampshire, where Sanders had held a comfortable lead.

“She would have to slip, which she’s no longer doing, for him to gain ground,” said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll. “It’s an uphill fight for him.”

Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders together at the Jefferson-Jackson Dinner in Des Moines last month return to Iowa for Saturday’s Democratic debate.

DANIEL ACKER, BLOOMBERG

Saturday’s debate will feature only Sanders, Clinton and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley.

“Hillary Clinton looks forward to the debate as an opportunity to discuss her vision for the best solutions to deal with the issues that keep American families up at night,” Clinton spokeswoman Christina Reynolds said.

Fewer participants means more chances for Sanders to

show he’s more ambitious than Clinton on immigration, education, Social Security and criminal justice reform, Devine said.

Sanders wants to stress his plan to reinstate the Glass-Steagall law that separated commercial and investment banking activities, a progressive priority that Clinton hasn’t endorsed, Devine said.

IN BRIEF DOZENS KILLED IN TWIN SUICIDE BLASTS IN BEIRUT

BODY CAMERAS SLOW TO DEPLOY FOR BORDER AGENTS

Twin suicide bombings just minutes apart shattered a Shiite suburb in southern Beirut on Thursday, killing at least 43 people and wounding dozens more in one of the deadliest attacks in years, according to Lebanese officials.

The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the explosions, which hit during rush hour in the commercial and residential area of Burj al-Barajneh, a stronghold of the Shia Hezbollah movement that is fighting in Syria.

At least 239 people were wounded in the blast, the Lebanese Health Ministry said.

The explosions erupted at a community center and a nearby bakery, according to Reuters.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency, in a continuing attempt to respond to controversial physical force incidents involving its agents, said Thursday that it needed more time to test its bodycamera program, indicating that it will eventually deploy the technology to border checkpoints, vesselboarding units and for outbound operations at ports as part of an expanded review.

But CBP Commissioner Gil Kerlikowske said Thursday that a “full-scale deployment is not necessary.” He said an existing network of thousands of fixed cameras is providing adequate coverage at some Border Patrol stations and remote crossings.

The governing board of the University of Missouri on Thursday named a black law professor and deputy chancellor emeritus to serve as interim president of a university system under siege from racial turmoil.

Michael Middleton, who recently retired from the university after 30 years, earned bachelor and law degrees there.

His selection came three days after Tim Wolfe resigned amid a firestorm over his handling of a series of racially charged events on the sprawling campus in Columbia.

“We all must heighten our focus, improve our culture ... and share the responsibility to see our university advance in healthy ways built upon respect for others,” Middleton said. “I am energized. We need to get our community together, working together.”

Middleton, 68, promised that incidents of racial harassment will be dealt with quickly.

“We hope at some point this kind of turmoil will dissipate,” he said.

Q&A WITH JOHN DICKERSON

MONEYLINE EMPLOYERS ADVERTISE MORE JOB OPENINGS IN SEPT. Employers advertised more job openings in September, but hiring was essentially unchanged. Job openings rose 2.8% to 5.53 million in September, up from 5.38 million in August, the Labor Department said Thursday. Hiring slipped to 5.05 million from 5.08 million the prior month. The report suggests wages could begin rising because employers are struggling to find workers, obligating them to pay better salaries.

The compact crossover will fill a key hole in the Buick brand’s U.S. lineup. Buick spokesman Nick Richards declined to comment on future product plans on Thursday.

Read the complete interview with ‘Face the Nation’ host John Dickerson

USA TODAY WASHINGTON John Dickerson, host of CBS News’ Sunday morning news show, Face the Nation, will step into perhaps his brightest professional spotlight Saturday night when he hosts the network’s Democratic primary debate.

It’s a platform that will enable Dickerson to market his relatively new job at CBS and thrusts him into a minefield of potential controversies that have faced other debate moderators in recent weeks.

While a novice at moderating debates, Dickerson is an old policy hand, having served as Time magazine’s political reporter for a dozen years, including a stint as its White House correspondent.

Dickerson jumped to broadcasting and was named CBS News’ political director in 2011. In June, he replaced the legendary Bob Schieffer as the host of Face the Nation.

While the morning news shows, like other TV news programs, are facing heightened competition for viewers’ time, Dickerson steps in at a time when Face the Nation continues to be the beneficiary of Schieffer’s popularity.

And Dickerson’s been able to maintain the lead. It’s the ratings leader among the three networks in total viewers — about 3.5 mil-

‘Face the Nation’ is the ratings leader among the three networks in total viewers — about 3.5 million, up 6% from a year ago.

lion, up 6% from a year ago, according to Nielsen.

Dickerson recently sat down with USA TODAY at his downtown office, sparsely decorated with books and old Underwood typewriters and little else. His comments have been edited for clarity and length.

Q:

WHAT WILL BE THE SINGULAR JOHN DICKERSON APPROACH TO MODERATING THE DEBATE?

A: The approach will be to give a sense of where the candidates stand on issues but also how they would get the issues to work in practice. If you think of the moderator as a glass that the viewer sees the candidates through, that’s the hope. It’s not about me and the candidates.

I think the best-reviewed debates are the ones in which the names of the candidates are mentioned, which is to say the debate is illuminating and instructive.

“The biggest pressure is just to try to get the show right,” says host John Dickerson.

“You don’t want to just phone it in.”

A: I don’t know how it’s going to work. But there is ferment, worry and passion and angst in the Democratic Party about what its message is going to be. If income inequality is the defining challenge of our time, as all candidates running say, you have an electorate that is starving for answers.

You’ve got to meet that need.

You try to hold them to account for what they just said. I don’t care if they’re being evasive to me. But if they’re being evasive to the people they’re asking to elect them, you might remind them that (they’re asking) for a lot of power.

Q:

HOW MUCH PRESSURE DO YOU FEEL IN REPLACING BOB SCHIEFFER?

A: You don’t want to mess it up.

Bob did a great job shepherding the show. The viewers had a really strong relationship with him.

But the biggest pressure is just to try to get the show right. You don’t want to just phone it in.

NEW YORK There’s a downside to the stock market’s big upside surge off of the August lows: Stock valuations are again on the pricey side, a headwind that could limit gains going forward.

After rallying as much as 13% from its 2015 closing low of 1867.61 on Aug. 25, the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index is again trading at above-average valuation levels.

The benchmark large-company index is now trading at 17.6 times its 2015 earnings projections, which is just shy of the 17.9 price-to-earnings (P-E) ratio near its record close of 2130.82 on May 21, according to Thomson Reuters.

Put another way, the current market P-E based on 2015 earnings is nearly a full point higher than the 16.7 P-E back at the market low in late August.

Valuations are high no matter what time frame you plug in. The valuation of the S&P 500 based on estimated forward four-quarter earnings is now 16.8 – which is

initial fears about a Fed hike also prompted selling. But the S&P 500’s drop of more than 12% in the correction brought valuations back down enough to spur buying.

The question now is whether the stock market can grind higher at current valuation levels, or whether another pullback is necessary to lure buyers back into the market. In a sign of investor jitters, there were net outflows to domestic stock mutual funds totaling $12.1 billion in the week ended Nov. 4, according to the Investment Company Institute, a fund industry trade group. To put that number in perspective, outflows in the previous four weeks combined totaled just $5.6 billion.

Michael Farr, president of money-management firm Farr, Miller & Washington, says current valuations are pricing in too rosy of an economic scenario.

“We believe valuation will be an impediment for stocks,” Farr told USA TODAY. “Valuations are currently reflecting an acceleration in economic growth — from the 2% to 2.5% pace since the end of the recession — as well as better corporate earnings growth.

We just don’t believe a meaningful economic acceleration is in the cards for the foreseeable future.”

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch @adamshell USA TODAY

It’s prediction time on Wall Street.

A new year is almost here. And that means Wall Street firms and its top investment pros are providing market forecasts for the new year.

Barclays is the latest investment firm to weigh in on what investors can expect in 2016. And while the U.K.-based firm is not predicting Armageddon, it by no means is calling for a year of big gains, either.

Barclays says investors should prepare for “mediocre” returns next year, citing “elevated valuations” as a challenge for the stock market in a year in which the Federal Reserve is expected to hike interest rates for the first

time in nearly a decade.

The title of the financial firm’s piece — “Global Outlook: Curb your enthusiasm” — sums up its caution.

Says Ajay Rajadhyaksha, Barclays’ head of macro research: “We do not expect the early stages of the Fed hiking cycle to disrupt global interest rate or equity markets.”

“However,” he adds, “financial markets are priced for a benign financial environment — steady growth, low inflation and loose monetary policy. This is unlikely to persist as 2016 progresses. We suggest that investors start the year neutral on risk assets but recommend keeping some powder dry to take advantage of possible risk-off episodes, such as the China-linked sell-off we saw in August.”

Next year’s outlook seems like a replay of 2015.

The civil war in Syria, the resulting flood of migrants into Europe and sluggish global growth will dominate talks that begin Sunday when leaders of the world’s 20 top economies gather on the Turkish Mediterranean coast for their 10th summit.

President Obama is among those attending the two-day meeting of the Group of 20, formed in 2008 amid fears that a spreading financial crisis could trigger a worldwide depression.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan places a wreath Tuesday at the mausoleum of Turkey’s founder.

The nations represented at Antalya — including the U.S., European powers, China, Russia,

Japan, India and Brazil — account for 85% of global output.

Because of Turkey’s involvement in the conflict in neighboring Syria and the fact that combat is occurring only 300 miles from the summit venue, Syria looms large at Antalya. The leaders plan to discuss a possible peace plan and what to do about the flood of refugees fleeing Syria and other wars when they convene for a dinner meeting Sunday.

Also on the dinner agenda: steps for combating climate change in preparation for a United Nations conference set to begin at the end of November in

This time of year, retail stocks more naughty than nice Q: Do retail stocks soar during the holidays?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: ’Tis the season for bulging bags of shopping. You might think it’s a great time to be in retail stocks — but history doesn’t support that.

Retail stocks, measured by the S&P 500 Retailing index (RLX), have underperformed the broad Standard & Poor’s 500 in three of the past five holiday seasons, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Capital IQ. The analysis compares how retail stocks performed from the day before Thanksgiving through the end of the year — to capture the bulk of the shopping season.

There’s no question the holidays are critical to retailers and most see a bump in profit and revenue during the season.

Electronics retailer Best Buy (BBY), for instance, got a third of its revenue during the holiday quarter that ended in January. But investors anticipate the bump in revenue and profit well before the fourth quarter begins, so stock prices are adjusted accordingly during the year. Some big retailers, such as Walmart (WMT), aren’t nearly as dependent on the fourth quarter as they sell a range of goods including staples.

Retail stocks can surprise, though.

Last year, retail stocks jumped 3.5% to beat the S&P 500’s 0.7% loss.

But investors assuming the holidays yield big stocks gains stand to be disappointed.

Paris with the aim of reaching a new global plan of action.

The summit’s host, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose party recently won parliamentary elections, will be a key player in the talks, noted University of Maryland professor Haluk Unal, former head of the TurkishAmerican Scholars Association.

A fierce opponent of Syrian President Bashar Assad, Erdogan is at odds with both Russian and U.S. policy toward Syria. He objects to Russia’s military intervention in support of Assad and opposes American help for Kurds in Iraq and Syria because Kurds

in Turkey oppose Erdogan and have long sought autonomy or formation of a Kurdish state.

Unal predicted Erdogan will blame the West for not doing enough to help migrants, 2 million of whom are being sheltered in Turkey. Many embarked from Turkey to Greek islands en route to Germany and other European nations. “Flush from his electoral triumph, Erdogan wants to shine at the summit,” Unal said.

During the summit, which ends Monday, Obama will confer separately with President Xi Jinping of China, next year’s summit host.

Bieber finds his ‘Purpose’ JUSTIN BIEBER Purpose

eeee POP

DOWNLOAD Sorry, Company, The Feeling

Six months ago, no one could have predicted that Justin Bieber would have one of 2015’s best albums.

Yes, you read that right. The bleached-blond tattooed bad boy — who just last year made headlines for landing behind bars rather than singing them — has made his most self-assured, and spiritual, effort yet. Purpose, out Friday, builds on the lush, tropicalhouse foundation laid by his summertime smashes Where Are Ü Now and What Do You Mean? and hits the sweet spot of multigenre appeal. With songs that would feel just as at home on Top 40, R&B, hip-hop, and even Christian radio, Bieber is making music for everybody that also feels like it’s just for himself.

Purpose kicks off with the woozy, hypnotic Mark My Words, which sets the tone for the rest of the album as he vows to give it all he’s got and “show you more than I could ever say.” Bieber keeps his promise as he wades into alreadyreleased territory: crooning softly over a towering electronic beat on the vulnerable I’ll Show You before gliding into smooth falsetto for the moombahton-inspired Sorry. After Ed Sheeran co-write Love Yourself, he shifts into overdrive for a string of potential hits, including pulsing come-hither Company, dreamlike Halsey duet

PETER YANG

Justin Bieber, 21, releases his fourth album, Purpose, on Friday.

The Feeling and the bass-heavy No Sense with rapper Travis Scott.

But it’s the album’s second half that’s sure to raise the most eyebrows among fans and clickbaitmongers, thanks to Bieber’s cometo-Jesus balladry. The 21-year-old mulls redemption and forgiveness on the piano-led Life Is Worth Living — saying you can crucify him but “only God can judge me.”

The album’s title track is even more revealing as Bieber recounts a time that he was at the end of his rope but God blessed him with purpose, “the best gift that I’ve ever known.” He makes his boldest statement with a voiceover on the second-to-last track of the deluxe edition, owning up to his mistakes on All in It and ending with the line: “God is perfect and he never disappoints, MORE MUSIC REVIEWS LIFE.USATODAY.COM

so I just get my recognition from Him and give Him my recognition.”

At times, the heavy preaching can feel more like aggressive damage control as Bieber and his team work to rectify his image after bouts of bratty behavior and run-ins with the law in the last few years. But you can’t fault a guy for putting out positive messaging in mainstream pop music, no matter how heavyhanded it sometimes gets. Plus, Bieber’s collaborative muscle and confidence always win out, showing an artist who is unafraid to reinvent himself and create the very definition of a comeback album.

Sure, many people will still refuse to listen for the sole reason that it’s Bieber, but ultimately, that’s just their loss. With Purpose, he proves himself as one of today’s most forward-thinking pop stars, and because of that, we’re newly converted Beliebers.

Simple steps can reduce the cost of keeping your house warm Linda a. ditch

Hometown Lawrence

As the temperature drops outside, the cost of heating the inside can put a huge dent in the monthly budget. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the average household spends approximately $2,200 on energy costs, with half going toward heating and cooling. Fortunately, there are ways to keep costs down while you heat up.

Start by installing a digital thermostat.

This simple gizmo can automatically change a home’s temperature while the occupants are away or asleep for optimum energy efficiency. For every degree a thermostat is set back during an eight hour period, the energy savings equals up to one percent. Set the thermostat back 10 to 15 degrees for the eight hours and the savings can reach 15 percent. The EPA recommends you start with a temperature of 68 to 70 degrees and then program the thermostat to set the temp back by at least 8 degrees both

during the day and at night.

Next, get your heating system serviced every year by a professional. This will extend the life of your system and make sure it is operating at peak efficiency. Also, set up a schedule to make regular filter changes throughout the season. A dirty filter restricts airflow, which makes the system work harder.

Another step is to replace worn-out weather stripping around doors and windows. Plus, if you can see light underneath your door, it is time to adjust the height of the threshold by turning the screws to lift it until most of the daylight is gone. Just be sure not to raise it too high so it interferes with how the door opens and closes.

Also, cover windows and patio doors, either with heavy insulated curtains, or better still, with a transparent film available at home improvement centers and

hardware stores. Follow the directions and the film will hardly block your view.

Make a trip up to your attic to be sure there is adequate insulation. The attic access door is a notorious spot for heat loss.

Attach a piece of fiberglass insulation with adhesive to the back of the door.

Finally, seal the seams in the heating system’s ductwork that can be reached in the basement, attic, crawl space, or garage with metal (foil) tape or mastic sealant to keep the warm air from leaking out.

Wrapping the ducts in insulation made for this purpose also helps keep the heat headed where it needs to go.

The EPA’s Energy Star website has lots of useful information and publication to help homeowners save energy and money.

Check it out at www.energystar.gov.

KU opens slate with Northern Colorado

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Your daily dose of Diallo Another day in the ongoing saga of Cheick Diallo’s quest for eligibility came and went Thursday, and a news conference scheduled to preview tonight’s regular season opener at Allen Fieldhouse against Northern Colorado quickly turned into the latest dose of your daily Diallo update.

The whole thing happened rather organically, and, to Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self’s credit, did not come across as a premeditated attempt to put pressure on the NCAA by talking about the Diallo debacle non-stop until the folks at the NCAA get so tired of hearing about it that they move him through just to get things over with.

Sure, if there were some sort of system in place where a filibuster on behalf of Diallo and the Jayhawks would make a difference, you can bet KU would have people lined up to talk the way the students line up to get into the fieldhouse prior to game days.

But it doesn’t work that way. And Self knows it.

So he leaves the pressuring part of the equation to the outsiders and moves forward with faith that the process will work. Sometimes it does and other times it doesn’t. But when it comes to college students and the opportunities they receive, both as students and as athletes, sometimes isn’t good enough.

College hoops analysts Jay Bilas and Dick Vitale, among others, have been more than happy to call out the NCAA for its mishandling of the situation. And they’re right. It’s time for Diallo to be cleared and this whole mess to be over.

But you won’t hear so much as a hint of negativity coming from Self about the process, the delay or even the possibility that Diallo still might be ruled ineligible this season. Because Self gets it. And he gets it because he’s been through it plenty during the 13 years he’s been at Kansas.

Former three-star prospect Braeden Anderson was deemed ineligible because of a Big 12 rule and never suited up for the Jayhawks.

The Morris twins were not cleared until the third week of the fall semester during

There’s one topic currently off limits in Kansas University’s basketball locker room: It’s next week’s trip to Chicago for a Champions Classic matchup between No. 4-ranked KU and No. 13 Michigan State.

“I tried to talk to Jamari about it. He said, ‘Just focus on one game at a time,’’’ said KU freshman forward Carlton Bragg.

Senior leader Jamari Traylor wasn’t about to discuss a game to be held Tuesday when there’s one against Northern Colorado to be contested tonight.

Tip between the Jayhawks and Bears is 7 p.m., in Allen Fieldhouse.

“He’s just got to think about one game at a time and getting better day by day. That’s coach’s mindset, my mindset, how anybody’s mindset should be,” Traylor said. “You can’t overlook

anybody at any point in time.”

Bragg, a 6-foot-9 forward from Cleveland, actually is fired up about today’s season opener against a Big Sky team that returns two starters off last year’s 15-15 squad that placed fifth in the 12team league.

“I can’t wait,” Bragg said Thursday. “Going to weights today I was kind of nervous, just trying to get my mindset ready for the big game.”

He said it has a different feel than KU’s two exhibition games. “Yes, because I’m nervous to mess up. It’s just a lot at stake right now.

I want to show everybody what I got the first time in a real game,” Bragg said.

KU coach Bill Self said jitters are natural in openers.

“I think Perry (Ellis, senior) will be nervous. I think Frank (Mason III, junior) will be nervous. I think they

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After giving up 285 yards of offense in the first half last week, Lawrence High’s football team is ready to prove it was more a fluke than any blueprint against its defense.

The Lions will face a strong rushing attack when they play Blue Valley in the Class 6A state quarterfinals at 7 tonight at LHS. In last week’s 56-32 victory against Shawnee Mission

North, the Lions allowed a few long runs and had trouble stopping SM North’s passing attack. However, the Lions did make improvements in the second half, holding the Indians to just one touchdown until the starters exited in the fourth quarter.

“It’s basically like a second chance for us,” senior linebacker Konner Kelley said.

After posting shutouts in the past two weeks, Free State High football players are excited to face Wichita Northwest’s high-powered offense in the Class 6A state quarterfinals.

The Grizzlies average 49 points per game, the secondmost in the state. But the Firebirds are ready for the challenge when they travel Please see LIONS, page 3C to Northwest at 7 p.m. today.

The Firebirds haven’t allowed a point in their past nine quarters and they want to see how they stack up against another top offense.

“We have a lot of confidence,” FSHS senior cornerback Zack Sanders said.

“It’s more keeping our heads straight now. Our secondary is going to have a pretty big battle with their wide receivers. They have two wide receivers with 700 or 800 yards Please see FIREBIRDS, page 3C

Bills give Ryan win over Jets East Rutherford, N.J. (ap) — Rex Ryan’s return to the Meadowlands was a successful one — thanks to his pride and joy, the defense.

Buffalo’s defense shut down Ryan’s former team for much of Thursday night, and the Bills scored on offense and special teams in a 22-17 victory over the New York Jets.

Duke Williams returned a fumbled kickoff 19 yards for the go-ahead points, rookie Karlos Williams had a 26-yard touchdown catch and Dan Carpenter kicked three field goals. Buffalo (5-4) moved into the wild-card playoff picture, while the Jets (5-4) have lost three of their last four games.

Ryan was fired by the Jets after six seasons and immediately hired by Buffalo last January. His defense, had two interceptions, recovered a fumble and stopped the Jets inside the Bills 10 in the final minutes — prompting some vigorous fist pumps Ryan repeated when Bacarri Rambo clinched it with a last-minute pick.

Buffalo’s offense made just enough key plays and held off a late surge by the Jets after Ryan Fitzpatrick threw for two touchdowns.

The “Rexception” before the game was tame, with some boos, a few cheers, nothing over the top. The loudest catcalls came when former Jets defensive end IK Enemkpali, chosen by Ryan as a team captain for the game, came out for the coin toss. Enemkpali infamously broke Jets quarterback Geno Smith’s jaw with a punch during the preseason, was cut and claimed the next day by Buffalo.

Hardly a wallflower, Ryan, wearing a red vest, almost was lost on the sideline among his players in their garish scarlet uniforms. And the fans seemed to forget about him once the action began.

That early action was dominated by some fierce defense.

New York’s blitzes kept Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor off-balance, and Buffalo got its first three points thanks to Corey Graham’s interception off a bobble by Jets receiver Brandon Marshall. Carpenter kicked a 47-yard field goal to make it 3-3.

Duke Williams added to that immediately, scooping up a fumble by rookie Devin Smith on the first kickoff return of his career. Williams scooted 9 yards for a 9-3 lead, but Carpenter missed the extra point wide left.

Carpenter added a 41-yard field goal to make 12-3 at halftime, then kicked a 29-yarder midway in the third period after Chris Ivory’s fumble.

Montgomery, Ala. (ap) — UAB coach Jerod Haase is using part of his new seven-figure contract to help cover the cost of attendance stipends for both the men’s and women’s basketball players.

Haase, the men’s basketball coach, stepped in to contribute after the university wasn’t able to pay every athlete’s cost of attendance this academic year because the budget was already set, athletic director Mark Ingram said Thursday.

Ingram said UAB had found some budget room to give money to those two teams.

Haase, a former Kansas University standout, helped out, too.

“Our coaches felt strongly that it was an important issue in terms of maintaining a competitive edge and so on, and so we did that,” Ingram said. “Then coach Haase asked could he, like many coaches, make a gift to his program to help augment that. And he did.”

Ingram said there was no NCAA conflict with Haase’s donation because he gave it to the general fund and the athletic department decides where it goes. He added that it is common for coaches to give to their programs.

Haase said he and his wife, Mindy, have also given money to other sports. He declined to discuss specifics of the dona-

tions, which included $23,000 each for men’s and women’s basketball.

“Mark Ingram and I have worked hand in hand to try to get us to be as competitive as possible, and cost of attendance has always been very important for me,” Haase said in a phone interview Thursday.

“Mark Ingram was able to find ways to get it done.”

ESPN.com first reported the donations. UAB will start paying cost of attendance for all athletes in the fall of 2016.

Ingram wasn’t sure of the total amount the basketball players are getting.

UAB gave Haase a six-year contract extension worth $1 million a year after he led the Blazers to an upset of thirdseeded Iowa State in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament.

The NCAA began in August allowing member schools to provide athletic scholarships that cover the full cost of attendance. UAB’s fiscal year runs Oct. 1-Sept. 30 and the budget was set months before the NCAA approved cost of attendance money in January.

Haase cites his own experiences playing for coach Roy Williams at Kansas as why that’s such a significant issue for him.

“My goal, maybe my biggest goal, is to be able to pro-

vide great experiences to my players and that someday they think about me the way I think about coach Williams,” he said.

“I always thought every decision he ever made was based on what was best for the student-athlete.

“I hope that my decisions here are based on what’s going to help us be really, really good but also what’s going to help the student-athlete.”

Haase knows the challenges of making ends meet in college.

He said he saved up $3,000 to buy a red hatchback 1989 Honda Civic before his fifth year at Kansas.

“I had a bike my first four years of college for transportation,” Haase said. “My mom tried to give me $100 a month for laundry and extra food and whatever else.”

The NCAA Tournament trip was a bright spot for a university that was dealing with fallout from cutting football, bowling and rifle in a cost-cutting move. UAB has brought all three sports back after receiving financial commitments from a number of supporters, and Haase said coaches and staffers throughout the department have adopted the attitude that “we’re all in this together.”

“I think the overall attitude in our department is that we want to contribute how we can,” Haase said.

now, so that’ll be pretty fun.”

The Firebirds (7-3) have an idea of what to expect. They beat the Grizzlies in the first round of the state playoffs last year, 27-16.

Top-seeded Northwest (10-0) returns most of its offense from a year ago, but will have senior quarterback Kevin Folsom, who missed last year’s contest because of a broken ankle. Folsom has thrown for 1,892 yards this season with 25 touchdowns and zero interceptions.

“He’s pretty good,” FSHS coach Bob Lisher said. “He throws BBs. He’s very, very accurate on his throws. … When they throw the ball, they are very efficient in what they do. They get a lot of yards on not a lot of passes.”

think we’re going to be able to stop the run, and be ready to stop any pass that they have when they do try to air it out on us.”

The top-ranked Lions (10-0) have been dominant against the run this season with their huge defensive line and strong linebackers. Blue Valley (8-2) features a threeheaded rushing attack with running backs A.J. Totta and Will Evans, along with quarterback Colton McCumber.

“We’re really trying to redeem ourselves and make a big point that you can’t put up yards like that again,” LHS senior defensive tackle Nate Koehn said. “I don’t think they ran it as much after halftime. We kind of took it personally and wanted to shut it down.”

The Lions are confi-

With a chance to reach the state semifinals for the second straight year, the Firebirds know they’ll need to be at their best defensively — and they’re excited for their biggest test yet.

“We understand the fact, if we do our jobs, we’re going to be a pretty good defense,” Lisher said.

dent they’ve fixed their mistakes from last week and coach Dirk Wedd said they’ve responded with a “great week of practice.”

It’s the first time these two teams have played each other since Blue Valley knocked the Lions out of the playoffs in 2008.

“We’ve been a really good defense all year,” Wedd said. “To be perfectly honest, we gave up 18 points before the (backups) went in. They gave up a couple touchdowns late. I think we kind of went into that football game with the attitude that we needed to keep from losing. ...

You can’t play protecting something. You have to play with your hair on fire.”

The Lions have plenty of faith in their offense to put up points, but they know their defense will key. Blue Valley’s defense has allowed just 11 points per game in its four-game winning streak.

“Last week was kind of an adversity check for us,” Kelley said. “Just shows what can happen to us.

Call that insincere or a cover if you want. But listen to it with your own ears, see it with your own eyes and you’d probably be singing a different tune.

Self does not say what he does not mean. Never has. And while he might be frustrated by the way the Diallo situation has dragged out, it’s the rules he has issue with, not the people enforcing them or the process to deliver the right ruling.

“There’s no bad people,” he said. “Nobody’s done anything wrong (or is) trying to say ‘We’re out to get somebody.’ Nobody believes that.... But you’ve gotta have rules, you’ve gotta have policy. We understand that. It’s just frustrating when maybe all the things that needed to be done haven’t been done to maybe have a true evaluation of the situation because of policies.”

time moving down the field with their no-huddle, uptempo offensive attack. But after facing some other fast-paced offenses this season, the Firebirds are prepared.

“We have a bunch of experience playing teams like their caliber offense: Topeka High, (Lawrence High) and Shawnee Mission East,” junior linebacker Jay Dineen said.

“So I think we’re ready for the challenge, big time.”

The Firebirds also have plenty of confidence in their ability to score points. During their seven-game winning streak, they’ve scored at least 30 points in all but one game, led by senior quarterback Bryce Torneden and running back Sam Skwarlo.

“Everything is starting to click,” Dineen said.

“We’re all doing our assignments. That’s all that matters. We have one of the greatest running back-quarterback duos in Kansas right now, so if we can block them, they’ll make the yards.”

Lightfoot signs with Kansas

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Lifelong Kansas University basketball fan Mitch Lightfoot is officially a member of the Jayhawk basketball program. The 6-foot-8, 210-pound senior from Gilbert (Arizona) Christian High, on Thursday signed his national letterof-intent with KU. “Mitch is one of those guys at 6-8 that can play the power forward position and maybe even a little small forward in time,” KU coach Bill Self said of the player, who averaged 17.9 points and 9.9 rebounds a game his junior season. “He gives us great versatility and is a guy that knows how to play with other good players. He will develop himself into one of the premier players in our program.

“He grew up loving the Jayhawks before mov-

ing out to Arizona,” Self added of Rivals.com’s No. 117th-rated player who moved to Arizona from Kansas City when he was 6. “Norm (Roberts) was the point man in Mitch’s recruitment and did a great job with his family.

After we got to know his immediate family and his extended family, it became very apparent he was a great fit. Everyone knew after visiting with him and his family that he was a top priority.”

Self said he’d like to sign four players this recruiting year.

“We have to sign some size,” Self said. “Losing Hunter (Mickelson), Jamari (Traylor) and Perry (Ellis) and then with a great chance of someone else will probably leave early, we’re probably looking at replacing four of our top big guys up front. Even though our backcourt are underclassmen, we anticipate that at

least one of those guys will have the opportunity to maybe move on to the next level after the completion of this season.”

Of his signing, Lightfoot said: “It’s a thrill to fulfill my dreams and now start new ones.” l

Recruiting: Thon Maker, a 7-foot senior center from Orangeville Prep in Mono, Ontario, will attend tonight’s KUNorthern Colorado game on an unofficial visit, Jayhawkslant.com reports.

Maker is also considering Kentucky, Indiana, Notre Dame, Arizona State and St. John’s. Maker, who was born in Sudan and grew up in Australia, has said he will announce in April. He’s not currently ranked because he was originally in the Class of 2015 ... De’Aaron Fox, a 6-3 guard from Katy, Texas, on Thursday chose Kentucky over KU, Louisville and LSU.

BRIEFLY KU volleyball adds two signees Kansas University volleyball announced the signings of two high school seniors on Thursday: Jada Burse of DeSoto, Texas, and Allie Nelson of Chicago.

Burse is a 6-foot-1 outside hitter, and Nelson a libero.

“Allie will be a libero candidate for us with Cassie Wait having one year

left after this season,” KU coach Ray Bechard said.

The Warriors beat the Timberwolves, 129-116, on Thursday night in Minneapolis.

NBA Roundup The Associated Press

Heat 92, Jazz 91 Miami — When Miami traded away Mario Chalmers earlier this week, Heat President Pat Riley decided it was time for a chat with reserve guard Tyler Johnson.

Riley’s message was short and sweet.

“Now, it’s on,” Riley said. “That’s what I said to him: ‘Game on. You’re not the third guard now.’

And we have every confidence in him.”

Johnson keeps showing why that’s the case.

Chris Bosh led the way with 25 points, and Johnson capped his 17-point night with two key field goals in the final 1:48 as the Heat topped Utah on Thursday night for their third straight win to open a seven-game homestand.

Goran Dragic finished with 14 points and Hassan Whiteside grabbed 14 rebounds for Miami, which started the game on a 9-0 run and opened the fourth quarter with a 13-4 spurt.

Derrick Favors led Utah with 25 points and 12 rebounds. Gordon Hayward had 24 points and 11 rebounds and Alec Burks added 24 — the last of those a three-pointer as time expired — for the Jazz.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Returning from injury, Kinner ready for TCU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

After battling through nagging injuries for the past five or six weeks, Kansas University running back Ke’aun Kinner is finally back, and he’s ready for Saturday’s 11 a.m. showdown at TCU. Kinner, the junior-college transfer who opened the season with back-toback 100-yard rushing games, topped 100 total yards in last week’s loss at Texas and is hoping to pick up where he left off in that one against the eighth-ranked Horned Frogs.

“I love it,” Kinner said.

“You can’t really get this in any other conference, playing a top-ranked team every week. I like to call ‘em money games.

And that’s just a chance for you to do what you can do against the top teams in the country.”

For Kinner, the frustrating part about being injured was not what it did to his statistics. After rushing for 270 yards on 43 carries during the first two weeks of the season, Kinner combined for just 114 yards on 50 carries in the next six. But even more frustrating than that was him not feeling like himself.

“I’ve been pretty banged up,” he said. “But that just goes back to my weight. I’ve gotta gain a few pounds and maybe I can carry more of the load.”

Asked what the injuries affected most, Kinner did not hesitate to point to the one thing that helped him make tacklers miss

KANSAS RUNNING BACK KE’AUN KINNER (22) pushes aside Texas defenders Saturday in Austin, Texas. with regularity during the opening weeks.

“It was mostly my lateral movement,” he said.

“I couldn’t really cut the way I wanted to and I couldn’t really get to my top speed. Nothing really serious, though. I’m very fortunate for that.”

With his body feeling good again last week against Texas, Kinner received his first doubledigit carry total since Sept. 12. More important than him being able to handle the work and show some explosion was the fact that he emerged from the game ready for more.

“He’s finally getting healthy and now he’s feeling a lot better and looking good,” KU offensive coordinator Rob Likens said. “He looked like his old self in the game and that was great to see.”

Doctson, who is among the nation’s leaders in several receiving categories but injured his wrist in last week’s loss at Oklahoma State, was at the center of some confusion on Thursday.

Comments made by TCU coach Gary Patterson on a radio interview with SiriusXMCollege were misinterpreted and later reported as Doctson being out for the season.

Later in the day, the school and Patterson both clarified the situation and said that Doctson still could play against Kansas.

At this point, it looks like a game-time decision for the senior wide receiver who ranks second nationally in yards per game (146.1) and third in receptions per game (8.7) and has 14 touchdowns.

On the road again KU entered the 2015 season hellbent on breaking their 33-game losing streak in games played outside of Lawrence. But it hasn’t happened.

The Jayhawks are 0-4 on the road this season, with losses to Rutgers, Iowa State, Oklahoma State and Texas coming by an average score of 4614. Saturday’s 11 a.m. kickoff against No. 13 TCU marks KU’s final shot at ending the road losing skid this season. If they don’t, the next opportunity to end the madness will not come until Week 3 of the 2016 season, when KU travels to Memphis on Sept. 17, 2016. TCU (8-1 overall, 5-1 Big 12) is a Doctson in or out?

45-point favorite over the TCU star wideout Josh winless Jayhawks.

Diallo attorney concerned over alleged NCAA tweet

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Don Jackson, attorney who is working on KU freshman Cheick Diallo’s eligibility case, sent out an e-mail to media Thursday indicating the NCAA Eligibility Center was “incapable of objective analysis of African American and African studentathletes’ credentials for initial eligibility at NCAA member institutions.”

He expressed concern over a Tweet attributed to a higher-up in that NCAA department, who four days ago is said to have written on Twitter: “I Webmd’d the symptoms for Ebola. They’re identical to a hangover.

Now I’ll think I have it every morning after wine wednesday #ebolajokes.”

Here’s attorney Jackson’s statement. The Journal-World is not using the NCAA official’s name because the Tweet has been unable to be located at this time. No officials were available for comment at the NCAA on Thursday night.

“Over the past several years, I have consistently stated my concerns about racial implications in many investigations that were initiated by the NCAA Eligibility Center and Enforcement Staff.

Although I have been

quite hesitant to directly state that investigators or representatives of the NCAA have ‘racist’ motivations, I have been quite open about the statistical disparities between the intensive reviews of African American and international athletes and other racial groups. Currently, there are a number of very high profile African American and native born African Basketball student-athletes whose eligibility is in question.

The international student-athletes’ eligibility and academic futures are in the hands of the Eligibility Center and (more specifically) the group that oversees international student-athlete initial eligibility certifications.

(Named person) oversees that group.

“Since my involvement in the Cheick Diallo matter became public several days ago, I have received no less than 40 calls and texts from coaches at various NCAA member institutions around the country about a Tweet from (Named Person).

The tweet is attached.

(Named Person’s) apparent effort to engage in an off color comedic comparison between Ebola symptoms and a ‘hangover’ are at the very core insensitive and potentially racist. In (this

person’s) current position, (Named Person) has primary responsibility to certify the initial eligibility of African studentathletes for participation at NCAA member institutions. (The) comments demonstrate that (Named Person) is philosophically incapable of objectively rendering decisions on the academic credentials and amateur status of African student-athletes.

“It is undeniably clear that (this person’s) superiors at the NCAA were quite aware of (this person’s) philosophical disposition and racial views. (The) comments and philosophical leanings clearly demonstrate long held beliefs that render (this person) and the Eligibility Center incapable of objective analysis of African American and African student-athletes’ credentials for initial eligibility at NCAA member institutions.”

Jackson indicated in an e-mail other reporters also attempted to locate the tweet Thursday to no avail.

Jackson stated: “Interestingly, immediately after my involvement in the case became public knowledge, I had a number of calls from coaches and athletic administrators about the tweet. These were coaches from schools that are not impacted by the current investigations.”

Kansas softball coach Smith signs five players for 2016 J-W Staff Reports

Kansas University head softball coach Megan Smith and her staff signed five incoming freshmen on Thursday. The class includes

a pitcher, a catcher and three infielders.

The new Jayhawks are: Becki Monaghan, Memorial Composite High School, Edmonton, Alberta; Brittani Reid and Madison Sykes, Blue

Springs High School, Blue Springs, Missouri; Mandy Roberts, Lee’s Summit West High School, Lee’s Summit, Missouri; and Courtney Taylor, Lamar High School, Houston.
