City files housing JUNKYARD JEWELS discrimination suit on veteran’s behalf

By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com

“

Certainly landlords need to follow the law, and the accommodation requested here was so extremely minor it’s amazing that the landlord really objected, but it is what it is.”

A lawsuit against a local rental management company alleges a veteran with an emotional support animal was discriminated against when trying to rent a Lawrence townhome.

The lawsuit, filed by the City of Lawrence Human Relations Commission, claims that KanMar Management LLC violated fair housing laws by refusing — David Brown, attorney representing to rent to the potential tenant the city based on his disability and use of a service dog.

n old name has popped up in the city’s new lawsuit alleging a fraudulent tax scheme related to The Oread hotel. The name: Rock Chalk Park.

If you haven’t already, read LJWorld reporter Rochelle Valverde’s account of what’s included in the city’s lawsuit against Thomas Fritzel and his entity Oread Wholesale.

I also spent some time going over the many pages of documents released by the city yesterday.

Among those was a new Fritzel audit report produced on the city’s behalf, and that audit had a brief reference to

Rock Chalk Park work.

In a nutshell, the Rock Chalk Park reference created questions about whether a Fritzel-led entity had improperly charged the city sales tax for construction materials used at Rock Chalk Park. When I asked the city about it, City Attorney Toni Wheeler said there was little she could say about the matter currently.

|

I’ll give you more details in a moment, but as a reminder, Fritzel — a defendant in this new lawsuit — was at the center of a controversial public-private partnership with the city and the University of Kansas to build the Rock Chalk Park sports complex in northwest Lawrence.

The potential tenant, Christopher Evans, is a United States military veteran who has a disability that “requires the use of an emotional support dog,” a German Shepherd and Great Dane mix, according to the lawsuit. Evans filled out an application to rent a unit at Ashbury Townhomes, 925 E. 14th St., and supplied a letter from his therapist regarding the dog, but was denied based on the pet policy of the townhomes, according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit, filed Nov. 8 in Douglas County District Court, claims that the landlords failed to make “reasonable accommodations” for Evans’

disability as required by local ordinance and state and federal fair housing law.

“The city is working to prevent discrimination in housing in the city for folks who do suffer disabilities,” Brown said. “And in this case, conciliation efforts with the landlord failed, and so they’re going forward and they’re enforcing the law as and when it’s needed.”

Evans has since rented other housing in Lawrence, which the

lawsuit states is more costly and less convenient to his child’s school.

As a result of the rejection of his rental application, the lawsuit is seeking damages of more than $75,000, as well as reimbursement of court costs and attorney fees. The figure includes actual monetary damages for Evans, as well as damages for “pain, suffering and humiliation.” The lawsuit states that Evans “has suffered and continues

to suffer emotional distress, pain and humiliation over this incident.”

Lyndon and Kathi Mullis, of Baldwin City, own and operate the townhomes and KanMar Management, and the lawsuit alleges that Lyndon Mullis has previously rented an apartment to a tenant with a service animal.

The Mullises told the Journal-World they have no comment on the matter at this time.

The city’s Human Relations Commission investigates discrimination in employment, public accommodations and housing. The ninemember commission has the ability to investigate, rule upon and resolve complaints. Brown said the commission typically resolves claims without litigation, and it has been several years since the city has had to file such a lawsuit.

Again, it is too early to know what to make of this. But given the questions of the financial accounting of the Rock Chalk Park project, it seemed like an issue worth noting.

I guess one thing that the lawsuit has made clear is that Oread Wholesale — the company the city is now accusing of defrauding the city — was involved to some degree in the Rock Chalk Park project. Worth watching.

Schmiedeler and Myers are happy with the finished work, agreeing its mostly rusty iron appearance contrasts and complements the restored buildings. It is both modern and evocative of the site’s history, Myers said.

As an artist, Schmiedeler said he appreciates the visibility his work will have on the busy corner near the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center.

For now, Parks and Rec officials are treating the case as they would “any other sort of vandalism,” Laurent said.

“We would file a police report and then we could go about repairing it.”

The mural traces the history of East Lawrence from Native American tribes to the area’s once-robust canning industry to Negro League baseball. Aside from the “Stop Trump” sign, the other peaceful protesters depicted in the mural remain

untouched, as do their messages of “Food not bombs” and “We demand equal rights.”

The ride-sharing company Lyft has announced that it launched service in Lawrence and Kansas City at noon Thursday.

Lyft operates much like Uber. You use a digital app to schedule a ride with a Lyft driver who uses his or her own car — as opposed to an official taxi — to pick you up and deliver you to your location.

Lyft’s service territory includes all of Lawrence, south to the Gardner area, north to the Lansing area, and all of the KC metro

Lyft noted that it will not provide service into Missouri.

As for rates, thus far Lyft and Uber seem to be pretty comparable.

Both companies have rate estimators on their websites. A trip from 31st and Iowa to Sixth and Massachusetts in downtown Lawrence was estimated at $7 to $10 on Uber’s site. It was estimated at $9 on Lyft’s.

Man accused of shooting dog charged, ordered not to have guns

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

A Douglas County man accused of killing a dog with a pellet gun in September has been ordered not to be in possession of any firearms as he awaits trial.

David Herren, 65, faces one felony charge of

cruelty to animals. He appeared in Douglas County District Court Thursday afternoon and was formally charged.

Herren, who pleaded not guilty, is accused of shooting and killing his neighbor’s Brittany Spaniel with a pellet gun on Sept. 28.

Soon after the dog, named Arlo, was found dead, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Kristen Dymacek said Herren had admitted to the shooting but said it was because Arlo had been on his property.

Arlo’s owner, Jessica Graff, strongly disagreed

KU governance speaks out against campus carry ­—

Multicultural Student Government plans new request

U

niversity of Kansas administration continues working on weapons policy updates with the assumption that beginning July 1, 2017, the university must allow legally carried concealed guns on its campus — as current law dictates. The latest step forward was Wednesday, when a Kansas Board of Regents recommended KU’s proposed weapons policy for approval by the full board, along with similar proposed policies from the other five state universities.

However, there are still individuals and groups pulling for state legislators to change the law so KU would not need that policy after all. At least tentatively, add KU’s University Senate to that list.

This week the University Senate Executive Committee agreed on the following statement, which the full University Senate is scheduled to consider Dec. 1. Based on previous observations of university governance talks on guns, I would be surprised if the full Senate does not overwhelmingly approve taking this stance: “The University Senate of the University of Kansas is composed of the elected representatives of staff, students and faculty at the University and is charged with acting in behalf of the staff, students, and faculty.

“Eighty-two percent of the KU staff, students, and faculty who participated in the January 2016 Docking Institute survey expressed opposition to allowing concealed weapons on campus.

“Moreover, current research indicates that the net effect of campus carry on the safety of college students, faculty, and staff is likely to be more death, more nonfatal gunshot wounds, and more threats with a firearm that are traumatizing to victims.

“Therefore, the University Senate wishes to express its opposition, in the strongest possible terms,

with Herren, however.

Graff said Arlo was found dead on her family’s land — in the 1700 block of East 1318 Road — and far from the property line.

Because an autopsy showed Arlo was shot through the heart and lung, he likely fell immediately where he was shot

rather than running back from Herren’s land, Graff said.

Douglas County District Court Judge James George told Herren he must go to the jail to be processed before Saturday afternoon and that while the case moves forward he is not to have any contact with

Graff’s family or possess any firearms.

Herren is next scheduled to appear in court at 9:30 a.m. Dec. 27, when a date will be set for his preliminary hearing.

Set shopping rules for preteen’s first solo spree Dear Annie: My 13-year-old daughter has been invited to her classmate’s birthday party. The mom of the birthday girl plans to drop off the girls at the mall — six of them — for four hours, during which they’ll wander around with money, cellphones, credit cards and a plan to get food at some point.

I am not comfortable with this. I called the mom and asked why she isn’t going with them. Her daughter doesn’t want her there.

I suggested the two of us go with the girls and perhaps even let them go off on their own for short periods and meet up with them a few times. But no.

She wants her daughter to feel “independent” and to give her her “space.”

Dear Annie

dearannie@creators.com

Besides the safety issue, I don’t like the idea of just going to the mall to hang out.

Not much good comes from that. My daughter always comes home wanting a bunch of stuff she doesn’t need.

When she buys clothes or junk impulsively, it always ends up in the trash or on the charity pile a few months later. We’re on a tight budget, and this is not in it.

Luxury cars explored on ‘Grand Tour’ Jeremy Clarkson, the former host of BBC’s “Top Gear,” hosts “The Grand Tour” (TV-14), a weekly travel series with an accent on expensive cars now streaming on Amazon Prime.

Clarkson, who was fired from the BBC for physically assaulting a producer, will be joined by Richard Hammond and James May, both from his former series.

Cars also loom large on tonight’s “Last Man Standing” (7 p.m., ABC).

Jay Leno returns as Joe, a carobsessive who bids against Mike for a coveted vehicle.

O One of the more amusing and amazing phenomena of popular culture is the ability of Adam Sandler movies to annoy critics yet appeal to audiences. Cable broadcasters keep Sandler movies in steady rotation. Tonight, there are four airing in prime time alone.

The 1998 sports comedy “The Waterboy” (6 p.m., Spike) was described as both “dumb” and “pretty funny” by Manohla Dargis, writing in L.A. Weekly.

And that was during a period when Sandler movies were better received. By 2012, his comedy “That’s My Boy” (7 p.m., FXM) received a terrible 20 percent “rotten” score on Rotten Tomatoes and sparked controversy for trivializing themes of statutory rape, incest and child neglect. The 2006 fantasy comedy “Click” (9:15 p.m., FXM) scored slightly better (32 percent on Rotten Tomatoes), but was dismissed as gruesomely unoriginal. And the critical consensus for his 1999 effort “Big Daddy” (9 p.m., Lifetime) was a thumbs-down for its awkward blend of gross-out humor and cheap sentiment.

O The UP Network anticipates Thanksgiving with a 153-hour marathon of “Gilmore Girls,” airing seasons one through seven. The marathon starts at 6 p.m. and runs till 3 a.m. next Friday, Nov. 25.

O Netflix will air “Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life,” an update/reunion that unfolds over four 90-minute episodes, debuting next Friday.

O Today, Netflix debuts “Divines,” about a teen girl’s survival in a drug-ridden city. The film won the Camera d’Or prize for best first feature film at the Cannes Film Festival.

Tonight’s Other Highlights

O “Caught on Camera With

Nick Cannon” (7 p.m., NBC) showcases viral videos.

O Sudden changes put the emphasis on teamwork on “Hell’s Kitchen” (7 p.m., Fox, TV-14).

O Dark clouds gather before the papal visit on “The Exorcist” (8 p.m., Fox, TV-14).

O Puppy products and algae loom large on “Shark Tank” (8 p.m., ABC, TV-PG).

The Facebook problem Mark Zuckerberg’s claim that fake news does not influence important choices is inaccurate and naive.

M

ark Zuckerberg, the founder and CEO of Facebook, is undoubtedly a smart guy. He just hasn’t sounded the part lately.

Facebook has faced criticism over fake news stories that circulated on the social media platform during the election. One that got particular attention is a fake account of Pope Francis supporting Donald Trump.

Zuckerberg last week blogged that it was “extremely unlikely” that phony stories changed the election outcome. He then doubled down in a speech last week, telling attendees at a tech conference: “To think it influenced the election in any way is a pretty crazy idea.”

At last count, President-elect Trump’s win in Michigan came by just more than 13,000 votes. Facebook has nearly 1.8 billion users. Facebook makes its living by convincing advertisers that it can influence millions upon millions of those users.

So, what is it, Mr. Zuckerberg? Does the content on Facebook have the power to influence or not?

Zuckerberg’s claim that fake news didn’t influence the outcome of the election “in any way” might be the craziest statement he has made on the subject, but it is not the most naive. That honor would go to this statement on Zuckerberg’s blog: “Our goal is to show people the content they will find most meaningful, and people want accurate news.”

The idea that people want accurate news might warm the hearts of journalists, but as anyone who has staffed a newsroom knows, it is not universally true. A significant portion of readers want news that reinforces their world view.

Truth is icing on the cake — tasty but not necessary.

It is not “crazy” to believe that Facebook played a major role in shaping the views that voters took with them into the ballot box. After all, it is a whole lot easier to push out falsehoods that reinforce partisan narratives than it is to develop real solutions and campaign on them.

It is worth noting that both Google and Facebook have announced efforts this week to combat fake news sites. Google will ban websites that promote fake news from using Google’s online advertising service, and Facebook has changed one of its policies related to how advertising and fake news can exist on the site, The New York Times reports.

Ultimately, changes at Facebook, while welcome and necessary, are not likely to solve this dilemma. Rather, Americans have to view their “news” feeds with a little more skepticism and spend more time researching the sources behind the headlines their friends are sharing.

Zuckerberg founded Facebook as a site to rate female students at Harvard.

It was not meant to be, nor has it grown to be, an outlet for the sharing of credible news and information. That’s a perspective worth keeping top of mind during the next election season.

Why Rogers’ departure is alarming Washington — The ouster of former congressman Mike Rogers (R-Mich.) from Donald Trump’s transition team is a worrisome sign of continuing internecine battles in the GOP and the ascendancy of Trump’s personal political allies in shaping the president-elect’s agenda.

Rogers, a widely respected former FBI agent who headed the House Intelligence Committee, had been seen as a figure of stability and continuity in intelligence matters. He was mentioned as a possible next director of the CIA or director of national intelligence. But Rogers was told last weekend by Rick Dearborn, executive director of the transition team, that he was being removed from his role in the national-security group advising Trump. He was replaced by Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), who took over as the committee’s chairman after Rogers left Congress in 2014 and has been a far more partisan chairman.

Rogers had angered House GOP hard-liners when his committee issued a bipartisan report in 2014 clearing Hillary Clinton of personal wrongdoing in the 2012 Benghazi incident. That report was characteristic of the way Rogers chaired the committee, in a working partnership with thenranking Democrat, Rep. C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger (Md.).

(Rogers added “additional views” that criticized “senior State Department officials” for dismissing threat

David Ignatius

“

You could imagine the jaws dropping Tuesday across the intelligence community when people heard the news of Rogers’ ouster.” warnings, denying requests for extra security in eastern Libya and other errors.)

But this consensual approach clearly didn’t suit Trump’s inner circle. Rogers had been brought into the transition by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), another official with bipartisan credentials, who was ousted himself a week ago and replaced by Vice Presidentelect Mike Pence. Some GOP insiders see the real power behind Trump as his son-in-law Jared Kushner, and they argue that there has been bad blood between Kushner and Christie for more than a decade. In 2005, when he was U.S. attorney, Christie obtained a guilty plea from Charles Kushner, Jared’s father, on charges of tax evasion, witness tampering and illegal campaign contributions.

Christie was quoted in

the New York Times after the elder Kushner was sentenced to two years in federal prison: “This sends a strong message that when you commit the vile and heinous acts that he has committed you will be caught and punished.”

According to GOP insiders, the most likely picks for CIA director include Nunes and former Rep. Pete Hoekstra (Mich.), who served on the House intelligence panel; former Defense Intelligence Agency chief Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn is being considered as well, though there are doubts he could be confirmed. A wild card mentioned by one source is former Defense Department official Frank Gaffney. All four are known as combative personalities who disdain the bipartisan approach that Rogers represented.

A sign of Rogers’ wide range of friends and contacts was a dinner party he gave Monday night at his Virginia home for some producers and cast members of the television drama “Homeland.” It was attended by CIA Director John Brennan, National Security Agency Director Adm. Michael Rogers and several prominent members of Congress from both sides of the aisle. Rogers didn’t mention to his guests that he had been informed several days before of his removal from the transition.

Rogers has been a strong advocate for the CIA and other intelligence agencies, and a critic of some efforts to restrict intelligence ac-

tivities. But he was seen by many CIA officers as a political figure who, like former CIA director Leon Panetta (another former congressman), would have had the political influence to shield the agency from attack.

A speech he gave last month to the Heritage Foundation illustrated one area where he might have disagreed with Trump, who favors conciliation with Russian President Vladimir Putin. “The Russians are certainly on the march,” Rogers said. “Russia’s change in the way they have used their cyber policy will give you a bead of sweat.”

Rogers issued a generous statement Tuesday reiterating his strong support for Trump. “America’s challenges domestically and overseas are so enormous that we needed to move in a drastically different direction for our country,” he said.

Just how far the new administration may depart from long-standing U.S. national security policies was demonstrated by Rogers’ own departure.

You could imagine the jaws dropping Tuesday across the intelligence community when people heard the news of Rogers’ ouster.

“He fought for the guys in the field and has their respect,” said one former top aide to Rogers. Like most of the rest of the government, the intelligence agencies literally don’t know what to expect next.

Trump may lead to era of nationalist populism President-elect Donald Trump’s election is a major blow to globalization, and will probably lead to a period of U.S. nationalist populism.

Judging from what he has said publicly in recent months, Trump wants to take a step back from some of America’s major trade, climate and political commitments with the rest of the world. He probably won’t be able to do it all, even if he controls both houses of Congress, but he will owe it to his base to move in that direction.

“Americanism, not globalism, will be our credo,” Trump said in his July 21 acceptance speech as party nominee at the Republican National Convention.

He said then that “the most important difference” between his plan and that of his opponent, Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, was that “our plan will put America first.”

On immigration, Trump is unlikely to make a serious effort to deport the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States. It’s too costly and would raise too many legal issues.

Rather, Trump is likely to increase deportations, which already reached record numbers under President Barack Obama, and

Andres Oppenheimer aoppenheimer@miamiherald.com

publicize them more than his predecessor. Trump may also terminate or scale down Obama’s executive action to give temporary visas to about 800,000 undocumented immigrants who came to the country as infants.

On his proposal to build a wall along the entire U.S.Mexican border, Trump will probably expand the existing wall, and talk a lot about that. But he won’t get Congress to give him anywhere near the $12 billion to $25 billion that would be needed to complete it.

He will probably ask for the funds, and then blame Congress for the next four years for not authorizing them. Besides, Trump will need to avoid a nationalist backlash in Mexico, which could result in Mexico electing leftist candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador in the 2018 elections.

On trade, Trump has threatened to withdraw

from or renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement with Mexico and Canada. But it will be hard for him to renegotiate NAFTA, because Mexico and Canada will oppose it, and his own Republican Party lawmakers are not likely to approve a unilateral U.S. withdrawal.

His proposed 35 percent tariff on Mexican imports would mean that the price of a Mexico-assembled Ford Fusion car bought in the United States would go up from $24,000 to $32,000 dollars. I doubt Trump will want to see that happen to U.S. consumers. More likely, he will impose some import fees to appease his antitrade supporters.

On the other hand, Trump’s victory will most likely kill President Obama’s Trans Pacific Partnership free trade deal between the United States and 11 Asian and Latin American countries, as well as Obama’s proposed Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership with the European Union.

On climate change, Trump has said he does not believe in human-caused climate change, and has promised to cancel the 2015 Paris Agreement signed by Obama with nearly 200 countries to cut carbon dioxide emissions.

While Trump cannot withdraw from that deal in the

short term, he will probably drag his feet in implementing it, possibly driving China and India to do the same.

Where I see the biggest impact of Trump’s nationalist populism will be in the areas of nation-building, human rights and democracy.

Trump has suggested that he will try to improve U.S. ties with autocrats such as Russia’s Vladimir Putin, despite Putin’s horrible human rights record. “I don’t think we have a right to lecture” other countries, Trump told The New York Times on June 20.

My opinion: Trump’s nationalist populism, alongside Britain’s recent decision to leave the European Union, seems to be leading us to a less globalized, more fragmented world. We are likely to see a lesser U.S. effort to strike diplomatic alliances with like-minded democratic countries, and a U.S. retrenchment from its role as a global champion of democracy and human rights.

Yes, we should give Trump a chance to succeed before criticizing him. But some of us will remain nervous about the possibility that his “America first” credo will lead to isolationism, and to a dangerous era of short-sighted unilateralism.

Storage woes delay end of bumper soybean harvest

By Elvyn Jones ejones@ljworld.com

A shortage of storage is delaying the end of what is said to be the best-yielding soybean harvest in eastern Kansas history.

Steve Wilson, owner of Baldwin Feed and Grain, and Matthew Vajnar, grain merchandiser for Ottawa Cooperative Association, which owns two elevators in Lawrence, said most of this year’s soybeans have been harvested, but there is no room in their elevators for the 5 to 10

percent that remain in the field.

Their elevators are operating on a “truck out, truck in basis,” meaning that once they ship a truck of grain to a larger destination elevator, they will accept a truck from local farms.

“Nationally, they say the soybean harvest is over,” Wilson said. “I think the only place still harvesting in Douglas and Franklin counties.”

What was needed to solve the end-of-harvest logistical bottleneck was a week of rain that stalls combines and gives elevators the opportunity to reduce

their grain inventories, Vajnar said.

There’s much good news despite the storage problem. It was a bumper crop that filled local elevators, and demand continues to keep soybean prices high despite the high local yields.

Wilson said yields varied from 30 to 60 bushels per acre, but that he “would like to think” most of those bringing beans to his elevator averaged about 50 bushels per acre. Yields of more than 40 bushels per acre would be considered a plus, he said.

“That’s awfully, awfully good,” he said. “For yields, that’s the best crop ever in eastern Kansas.”

Good yields often mean depressed prices, but demand, particularly foreign demand, continues to keep soybean prices at or near $9 per bushel.

“The demand is there from China,” Vajnar said. “That is something that has continued to grow. I don’t think there’s any question that is adding a couple of dollars to farmers’ bottom

The bumper soybean crop followed a good but disappointing local corn harvest, Vajnar said. His surveys indicated an average in eastern Kansas of 140 bushels an acre.

“That’s still good, but probably not as good as last year,” he said. “People were expecting more.”

A very wet May followed by a hot, dry June hurt the yield, Vajnar said.

Although Trump is backing off on some of his campaign pledges, it may not matter to his supporters — or foes Rick Hampson @rickhampson USA TODAY

President-elect Donald Trump is backing off some of his more dramatic campaign promises, but — and don’t breathe a word of this to George H.W. Bush — neither his supporters nor his opponents seem very upset.

Studies show that most presidential candidates have honored most of their campaign promises.

Once elected, however, everyone compromises, backtracks or fudges to some extent.

Trump will be no exception, judging from his comments during the past week. He’s said he wouldn’t necessarily build a wall along every inch of the Mexican

For a variety of reasons — including his supporters’ love of him, his opponents’ hatred of his proposals and a general acknowledgment that Trump is best taken seriously but not literally — this president may prove more immune than most to the political cost of broken promises.

@joshhafner USA TODAY

A federal report released Thursday calls for a shift in the way America addresses substance addictions, finding one in seven Americans will face such disorders. Only 10% of those addicted receive treatment, the study said.

“Facing Addiction in America: The Surgeon General’s Report on Alcohol, Drugs and Health” marks the first report from a surgeon general dedicated to substance addiction, raising the profile of the epidemic and advocating proven treatment options.

An American dies every 19 minutes from opioid or heroin overdose, and Thursday’s report spells out the cost of substance abuse. The economic impact of drug and alcohol misuse and addiction amounts to $442 billion each year — topping diabetes at $245 billion, said Vivek Murthy, the surgeon general.

“At a time when we are resource-constrained already, we cannot afford, for humanitarian reasons or financial reasons, to not address addiction in America,” Murthy said in an interview with USA TODAY. Every $1 invested in viable treatment options for substance use disorders saves $4 in health

A police officer holds a bag of heroin confiscated as evidence. care costs and $7 in criminal justice costs, Murthy said. That’s one reason why the report advocates for a paradigm shift on addiction that removes the stigma from addiction, creating more patients and fewer prisoners.

“We have to recognize (addiction) isn’t evidence of a character flaw or a moral failing,” Murthy said. “It’s a chronic disease of the brain that deserves the same compassion that any other chronic illness does, like diabetes or heart

disease.”

Bryon Adinoff, an addiction psychiatrist at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, said the report’s influence carries hope that how Americans see and understand addiction might change.

Genetics account for about half of a person’s likelihood of becoming addicted, Adinoff said, but viewing addiction first and forev STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Pluto’s heart holds key to ocean beneath its icy surface Massive impact rearranged planet Traci Watson

Special for USA TODAY

Pluto, once dismissed as stagnant and boring, is turning out to be as flamboyant as they come.

Two new studies buttress the idea that Pluto coyly conceals an ocean beneath its icy shell. The same research suggests the dwarf planet has a history of rolling over — literally. After being struck by a gargantuan celestial missile billions of years ago, Pluto

spun south and east, researchers say, and geologic features once nearer Pluto’s north pole moved toward its equator.

The movement would’ve been “quite dramatic,” says the University of Arizona’s James Keane, coauthor of one of the studies. He estimates Pluto swung around 60 degrees, “like swapping North and South America.”

When the New Horizons spacecraft buzzed Pluto in 2015, it sent back exquisite images of a pale region shaped like a Valentine’s Day heart. The heart’s left lobe turned out to be a low area, called Sputnik Planitia, roughly 2 miles deep and 540 miles wide.

ILLUSTRATION BY JAMES TUTTLE KEANE

Sputnik Planitia (the left lobe of Pluto’s “heart”) probably formed after a comet impact.

This emblem of love was probably gouged out eons ago by an incoming projectile of ice and rock.

Keane and his colleagues decided to investigate. So did a team headed by Francis Nimmo of the University of California-Santa Cruz.

According to the scenario proposed by both groups in this week’s Nature, Sputnik Planitia once huddled closer to Pluto’s north pole than it does today. Then the planet rolled downward, carrying

the depression about 300 miles southeast toward Pluto’s midsection, according to Nimmo’s calculations.

If the Earth went though the same motion, Minneapolis would move to where Havana is. Working with data collected by New Horizons, Keane’s group found an even bigger swing.

Both groups say such a dramatic swivel required a massive extra bulk at Sputnik Planitia. Extra mass there, whatever it is, would tend to make Pluto swing downward. The most likely culprit is a combination of ice and a buried ocean laced with ammonia, Nimmo’s team says.

Sessions tops list for attorney general Alabama senator among first to endorse Trump and has a resume that’s lifted him above others Mary Troyan @orndorfftroyan USA TODAY

Republican Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama is the leading candidate for attorney general in the administration of President-elect Donald Trump, two people in the transition and close to Sessions said Thursday.

Trump and Sessions met Thursday in New York, after which Trump decided that Sessions had separated himself from the other contenders for the post, according to a senior staffer on the transition team. Neither person was authorized to speak on the record. Sessions’ knowledge of the law and experience as a prosecutor were the key attributes Trump cited.

The attorney general is the nation’s top law enforcement official, with management of the U.S. Department of Justice, the network of U.S. attorneys around the country, the FBI and several other agencies.

The transition aide stopped short of describing Sessions’ appointment as imminent, and nothing is final until Trump makes the announcement. But there were signs Thursday that a loose network of Sessions’ allies were gearing up to support the nomination. Sessions, 69, has been in the Senate since 1997. He is a former U.S. Attorney in Mobile, Ala., and former Alabama Attorney General. He was the first WASHINGTON

senator to endorse Trump during the Republican primary early this year, and has been a close adviser to Trump ever since.

Sessions and Trump initially bonded over their shared views on immigration and trade policy.

But Sessions’ background as a prosecutor and his longtime seat on the Senate Judiciary Committee have been at the center of his Senate career. He’s a fierce partisan who is known for opposing efforts to provide legal status to immigrants who entered the country illegally, whether the idea came from Republican or Democratic administrations.

If Trump ultimately nominates Sessions, his confirmation process will likely rehash one of his darkest professional moments.

The Senate Judiciary Committee 30 years ago rejected Sessions’ nomination for a federal judgeship after hearing testimony about racially insensitive remarks he made to colleagues in the U.S. Attorney’s office in south Alabama.

There were allegations that Sessions called a black attorney in his office “boy”; that he said the Ku Klux Klan was acceptable until he found out some of its members smoked pot; and that he described some prominent civil rights organizations as “unAmerican.”

“I deny as strongly as I can express it that I am insensitive to the concerns of blacks,” Sessions said at the end of four days of testimony, but it was not enough and

“I spent many hours working by his side and know (Sessions) to be the same man behind closed doors that he is in the public’s eye.”

Stephen Boyd, a former communications director for Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala.

his nomination was rejected.

Sessions would go on to win several statewide elections in Alabama and eventually a seat on the very committee that had rejected

him. He was also the ranking Republican on the judiciary committee when President Obama’s Supreme Court nominees, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor, were confirmed. He opposed both.

Stephen Boyd, a former communications director for Sessions who is now chief of staff to a House member from Alabama, said he expected former Sessions’ staffers to step forward and defend his record on race. “Jeff Sessions is a man of high integrity and moral character,” Boyd said.

“I spent many hours working by his side and know him to be the same man behind closed doors that he is in the public’s eye. I’m confident that the people who

have worked the closest with Sessions over the years will be eager to come forward and talk about the honest and fair man they know.”

The emerging defense for Sessions indicates that Trump’s team is bracing for opposition from Democrats and civil rights groups concerned about a Justice Department that might seek to roll back certain legal protections for minorities or place less emphasis on issues like voting rights. Although Sessions voted to extend the Voting Rights Act when it was last reauthorized by Congress, he also agreed with the Supreme Court ruling that eliminated a key part of the landmark civil rights law.

Kristen Clarke, president of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, said Thursday night that a Sessions nomination could be polarizing.

“That role should be occupied by someone who has a commitment to ensuring equal justice under the law for all,” she said. “If he is indeed the nominee, I believe it would be viewed with great skepticism by many in the civil rights community.”

William Smith said Thursday that Sessions hired him as the first African-American Republican chief counsel on the Senate Judiciary Committee. “Jeff Sessions is a man of high character and great integrity,” Smith said.

“Although I pushed the envelope a number of times, not once did Senator Sessions ever say anything to offend me. Instead, time after time, he stood by me and the conservative causes I was out to support.”

most as an illness clashes with Americans’ up-by-your-bootstraps mentality.

“Our whole approach to substance abuse disorders is they’re illegal and you go to jail,” he said.

“It’s the only illness for which you send people to jail, for long, long periods of time.”

Nearly 21 million Americans struggle with substance addictions, according to the report. That’s more than the number of people who have all cancers combined.

That only one in 10 people with substance addictions receive treatment points to the significant holes in America’s health care system. High costs, a lack of screening for addictions and a fragmentation of health care services worsen the problem, according to the report.

One bright spot for those seeking treatment has been the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, Murthy said, which made 20 million people eligible to receive health insurance. The law, along with the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008, increased access to addiction treatment services.

In the wake of last week’s election, the Affordable Care Act could be overhauled. Whatever happens over the next four to eight years, Murthy said, continuing to expand coverage will remain key to addressing addiction.

Linda Rosenberg, president of the National Council for Behavioral Health, agreed. Those in the throes of addiction are often young and uninsured, she said.

She praised the report as a call to

action, not only for organizations such as hers that work with treatment centers but also for the incoming presidential administration.

“That includes fighting to keep the Medicaid expansion,” Rosenberg said. “I don’t care whether you rename it ‘Trumpcare,’ I just want people to be able to get services.”

“Solving this problem is not going to take place if we just pass a few laws or if public health experts just start a few more programs,” Murthy said. “It’s actually going to take all of us coming together to do our part.”

That means parents talking to kids about addiction — early, he said. People who start drinking before age 15 are four times more likely to become addicted later in life than those who start at 20 or later, according to the report. The surgeon general recommends that schools implement prevention programs and doctors receive training on how to screen, diagnose and treat substance use disorders. Policymakers must put resources into prevention and treatment programs, too, Murthy said.

The report stresses that successful treatment of addiction requires more than a stint with a treatment program. Professional counseling and supportive relationships play key parts.

“I’ve just understood that addiction really touches everyone’s life,” the surgeon general said. “It’s a disease that doesn’t discriminate, and it’s one that’s taking an extraordinary toll on our communities across the country.”

Q: Why do regulators stop me from making money?

Matt Krantz

A: If you’re not an “accredited investor” there are some investments not available to you.

It’s not a conspiracy theory.

These rules are a protection since some investments are so risky they could be dangerous to those who can’t afford to take a big loss or not understand the risks.

Accredited investors may invest in a broader array of investments than most because it’s presumed they can afford to take giant risks and understand as

much. Large investors make mistakes, too, which make you question if they appreciate risk. But the rules at least offer some assurance these investors take a hit.

To be an accredited investor in the U.S., you need to have a net worth of at least $1 million, excluding your home, or have earned $200,000 a year for the past two years ($300,000 if married). Accredited investors also include big institutional investors ranging from banks and insurers to large charities.

Being considered an accredited investor allows you to buy some risky investments ranging from venture capital funds to hedge funds. These high-risk ventures can be lucrative.

But they can also generate massive losses not appropriate for most investors.

Tesla shareholders approve deal to buy SolarCity Marco della Cava @marcodellacava USA TODAY

In a deal that brings electric cars together with solar power, Tesla Motors shareholders voted Thursday to approve a deal to acquire SolarCity.

The acquisition makes SolarCity, which is the nation’s largest manufacturer and installer of solar panels, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tesla. More than 85% of shares voted were cast in favor of the acquisition.

SAN FRANCISCO

Tesla shares, which closed up 2.5% at $188.66, rose 1.4% in after-hours trading. SolarCity shares rose 2.5% after hours to $20.90.

In adding SolarCity to the portfolio, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said Tesla stores would become one-stop shopping emporiums where consumers can purchase solar panels, electricity storage units called Powerwalls and Powerpacks and a growing suite of electric vehicles.

“We’re trying to make an integrated product, where you can go to a Tesla store and just say yes,”

“We’re trying to make an integrated product, where you can go to a Tesla store and just say yes.”

Tesla CEO Elon Musk

Musk said after the vote. “It’s seamless, and you love it.”

Musk added the company expects to begin producing its new solar panels “in volume in the summer of next year, but the important thing is the apples-to-apples comparison to a regular

roof.” He said SolarCity panels could be priced at, or even slightly below, that of a regular roof, “and the electricity is just a bonus.”

Traditional solar panels stand out significantly visually on rooftops — shiny, bulky black panels that aren’t necessarily appealing to the eye. Musk’s vision involves creating solar panels disguised as shingle or tiles that seamlessly integrate into a roof.

When Musk first announced his intention to buy SolarCity for $2.6 billion in August, it was met with some scrutiny. Musk was So-

larCity’s largest shareholder and the acquisition seemed to be a conflict of interest, especially given t SolarCity’s founder, Lyndon Rive, is Musk’s cousin.

What’s more, some shareholders and analysts questioned whether taking on a mission to get Tesla into the home solar panel market was wise given the challenges facing the company’s automotive division. While Tesla’s sleek cars have quickly become status symbols, questions remain about the company’s profitability as well as its ability to grapple with production snags.

Bruno Mars funks things up on throwback ‘24K Magic’ He stays old-school with new R&B four years after ‘Jukebox’ Patrick Ryan USA TODAY

NEW YORK Believe it or not, it’s been four years since Bruno Mars released his last album.

“No, has it really been four years?” Mars, 31, asks between drags of a cigarette as he hunches on a couch in Atlantic Records’ Midtown office. His Grammywinning sophomore effort Unorthodox Jukebox was released in December 2012, and his latest, 24K Magic, is out Friday, two weeks shy of the anniversary.

Whatever the time frame, “y’all just being dramatic!” he laughs, putting on a dramatic voice. “It’s been 44 years since Bruno was seen ...”

Not that he’s been MIA. In addition to scoring three top-5 singles off Unorthodox and touring the globe on a nearly sold-out arena trek, the affable singer headlined the 2014 Super Bowl halftime show with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and emerged at this year’s halftime show to perform a little song called Uptown Funk.

Uptown, Mars’ collaboration with Mark Ronson, has been the biggest hit of their careers so far: It spent 14 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and earned a Grammy Award for record of the year. Neither could have predicted the magnitude of the song’s success when they cowrote it in 2014.

The euphoria of Uptown clearly rubbed off on 24K, a nostalgiafueled joyride that puts a glistening pop sheen on old-school R&B from the late 1980s and ’90s.

Writing the album, Mars and his producing team The Smeezingtons (Philip Lawrence and Ari Levine) were inspired by artists they grew up listening to, including Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Babyface and Teddy Riley (of Blackstreet and Guy).

Mars starts the party right out of the gate on the glitzy title track, which debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart last month and has since tallied 95 million Spotify streams, 124 million YouTube views and 349,000 downloads, according to Nielsen Music. The bumptious behemoth — with its references to “Cuban links” and “designer minks” — was recorded with extravagance that seems uncharacteristic of Mars, who is mellow and meditative as he discusses the new music.

“This whole album, we be walking into the studio just wearing some fabulous (stuff ), wearing pinky rings, and that kind of set the tone,” Mars says. “To have the audacity to sing (lyrics) like, ‘I’m calling all my lovelies ’cuz I can’t get a hold of you,’ like, who do you think you are that you can say that?”

Despite his success, Mars doesn’t appear to have an inflated ego. For instance, after he wrote All I Ask

with Adele off her blockbuster 25, the British diva told Vogue that he will be the “biggest artist in the world.” He sheepishly demurs, “While she sells 30 million albums. She’s a sweetheart.”

As he gears up for another world tour, which lands stateside next summer, Mars says he doesn’t have any lofty goals for his 24K Magic era. Rather, “I just want to make sure I put out the best that I could do. The awards and stuff are cool — they look good on the shelf — but that’s not why you sign up to do this in the first place.”

Associated Press

Amman, Jordan — The U.S. Embassy in Jordan on Thursday disputed Amman’s claim that U.S. trainers sparked a deadly shooting incident at a Jordanian military base this month by disobeying orders from Jordanian soldiers. The shooting killed three Americans.

The three slain Americans were assigned to the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) from Fort Campbell, Ky. They were identified as 27-year-old Staff Sgt. Matthew C. Lewellen, of Lawrence; 30-year-old Staff Sgt. Kevin J. McEnroe of Tucson, Ariz.; and 27-year-old Staff Sgt. James F. Moriarty of Kerrville, Texas.

They died after the convoy they were in came under fire as it entered the al-Jafr air base in southern Jordan on Nov. 4. The Americans were in Jordan on a training mission.

Embassy spokesman Eric Barbee told The Associated Press on Thursday that U.S. investigators are considering all possible motives and “have not yet ruled out terrorism.”

After the shooting, Jordan’s state news agency Petra reported that the slain American military trainers had disobeyed direct orders from

Barbee said there’s “absolutely no credible evidence” for the claim.

Jordan later issued a different statement removing the claim.

A fourth American soldier was wounded in the incident, as well as the Jordanian soldier who opened fire and has not yet been identified.

Brett McGurk, the White House envoy to the U.S.-led coalition against the Islamic State group, said Jordan’s King Abdullah II expressed condolences over the deaths of the Americans.

McGurk also said an investigation is ongoing and praised Jordan’s role in the fight against IS, which holds territory in neighboring Syria and Iraq.

HuHot to open Mongolian grill in Lawrence I

f this isn’t a textbook definition of synergy, I don’t know what is: A national chain has filed plans to open an all-youcan-eat style restaurant just a couple of doors down from the Planet Fitness workout facility on south Iowa Street.

HuHot Mongolian Grill has filed plans to locate at 25th and Iowa streets in a portion of the space previously occupied by Tuesday Morning. If you are not familiar with HuHot, it has about 50 restaurants across the U.S., including in Topeka, Wichita, and Manhattan.

Town Talk

Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

The concept is similar to other Mongolian grills where you select raw meat, vegetables and noodles, go to a sauce bar to pour a few ladles of liquid on your ingredients. and then you take those selections to a grill staffed by a stir-fry chef. You then watch the stir-fry chef chop and stir while you do dumbbell curls to prepare yourself to carry your plate back to your table. (Well, maybe that last part is optional.)

HuHot, however, does have a lot of ingredients to choose from. According to its menu, meat and seafood selections include: beef, chicken, halibut, salmon, calamari, swordfish, hot sausage, mahi-mahi, pork, shrimp and tilapia. The

HUHOT MONGOLIAN GRILL has filed plans to locate at 25th and Iowa streets where Tuesday Morning used to be. menu also includes about four different varieties of noodles and rice and about 25 different vegetables ranging from traditional Asian stir fry ingredients, such as bamboo shoots and bean sprouts, to less traditional ones, such as jalapeños, black beans, and potatoes.

The sauces are where things can get really interesting because it allows you to mix and match, kind of like when you were a kid at the self-serve soda fountain. The sauce bar includes about 25 sauces including several ginger, black Thai peanut, garlic varieties, teriyaki, sesame, soy, sweet chili, and a few that lead me to believe they may not be appropriate for

my stir fry dish, but may be useful in thinning my eyebrows. Those include Khan’s Revenge, Five Village Fire Szechuan, and Burn Your Village BBQ. As I believe I have mentioned, the stir fry bar is all-you-can-eat. You pay one price — ranging from $10 to about $15, depending on when you dine — and refill as many times as you would like.

HuHot will take about 5,000 square feet — or roughly half — of the former Tuesday Morning space. If you have forgotten where Tuesday Morning was located, the space is just south of the Office Depot store. Office Depot is just south of the new Planet Fitness.

In addition, plans have been filed with the city to prepare another part of the 25th and Iowa shopping center for an additional tenant. The development group has filed plans to subdivide the approximately 24,000 square feet of space that is vacant just north of the Planet Fitness facility. Plans call for the space to be divided into an approximately 14,000 square foot retail space and a 9,000 square foot retail location.

I talked with Christian Ablah with Classic Real Estate — the group that is marketing the development — and he said the splitting of the 24,000 square feet space is still preliminary.

He said there may be a

user that wants to take that entire location, but no deal has yet been reached. In addition, there will be about a 6,000 square foot space on the back side of the building. All told, the building — which previously was occupied largely by Office Depot and the former Discovery Furniture — will be able to house up to six tenants. No word yet on which businesses the development group may land.

If somehow the group could land something like an Elastic Waist Bands R Us store, that would take the synergy levels to even greater heights.

The average rate nationwide on a 30-year fixed mortgage jumped to 3.94 percent this week from just 3.57 percent last week.

Trump’s policies could affect housing in different ways. Restrictions on immigration could limit the supply of available workers for construction firms, which have already complained for years of labor shortages.

Yet Ralph McLaughlin, chief economist at data provider Trulia, points out that Trump could loosen regulations on banks and reform mortgage giants Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, potentially increasing the flow of mortgage lending.

Sales of new homes climbed 13 percent in September from a year earlier.

Yet the supply of new properties was equivalent to just 4.8 months of sales, down from 5.8 months a year ago.

Cre stlin

Washington — Builders broke ground on the most new homes in nine years last month, a response to strong demand that should lift the economy.

Home construction soared 25.5 percent to a seasonally adjusted 1.3 million in October, the Commerce Department said Thursday. That is the biggest gain since July 1982. New construction is also at the highest level since August 2007, months before the Great Recession began.

Americans are clamoring to buy homes, but there are few properties on the market. That has driven up prices. Mortgage rates remain low, despite a big increase this week, making more homes affordable.

Steady hiring and some

signs that pay gains are picking up have bolstered demand for housing. Younger Americans, buoyed by higher pay, are moving out on their own, renting apartments or seeking to buy houses. Sales of new and existing homes have picked up in recent months.

The jump in construction was driven by a 75 percent leap in apartment building, a notoriously volatile category. That was the biggest gain in five years. Singlefamily home construction rose 10.7 percent.

Still, the future is a bit cloudy for housing. Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election has led to higher interest rates on government bonds, a sign investors expect higher inflation in the coming years.

Those increases have lifted mortgage rates from very low levels.

uke, forever armed with good shooters, also always does a great job of creating oneon-one driving opportunities for its scorers.

Just about every year, the Blue Devils rank high in conversations about the best offensive teams in college basketball and all the efficiency statistics back up what our eyes tell us in the first place.

This year’s Blue Devils, even with three top freshmen sidelined by injuries, are no exception. That’s what made the defense Kansas played in the opening 12 minutes of the second half so impressive in scoring the 77-75 victory Tuesday at Madison Square Garden.

Kansas took control by outscoring Duke, 33-16, in the first 12 minutes after the break. During that stretch, Duke committed five turnovers and made 5 of 15 shots from the field.

“I think the really special thing about us is that, we’re a pretty good team offensively, but I think we have some really, really good defenders and I think that’s going to be the key to our team, defense,” freshman Josh Jackson said. “I think we can be a great team defensively.”

That statement from the nation’s No. 1 recruit in the Class of 2016, far more than the ranking itself, is one reason Kansas coach Bill Self pursued Jackson so aggressively. With Self, it’s all about making the other team uncomfortable.

Self stopped short of using “great,” but did say his team, “really guarded,” coming out for the second half.

“I think we can become a very good defensive team,” Self said. “There are times where if we play small, to me, it can be more encouraging sometimes. Sometimes if we play big and other teams play small it creates matchup problems for us.”

For example, Carlton Bragg is vulnerable to getting beaten on the drive by shorter players when Kansas faces four-guard lineups.

“Back when we had Shady (Darrell Arthur) and guys like that (Marcus Morris, although not as quick as Arthur, would be another example), it didn’t matter because they moved like guards. I think we can become a very good defensive team, but we’re not there yet.

We’re still a long ways away from that.”

Jackson fouled out in 18 minutes of action, although one of them came on a firsthalf technical.

“On-ball defense has been a little bit of a struggle for us with the way referees have been calling games lately with the hand-checking and things,” Jackson said. “We’ve got to try to get guys to stay out of trouble and move our feet.”

He sounded so excited talking about the team’s defensive possibilities. What a great sign.

Firebirds head to Derby for state semifinals — again

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

It’s the same script, but Free State High football players are hoping to write a different ending.

For the second straight season, the Firebirds will travel to top-seeded Derby for the Class 6A state semifinals at 7 tonight. It’s the third consecutive season the Firebirds have advanced to the semifinals.

Last year, the Firebirds suffered a season-ending 3514 loss and they never forgot how painful it was.

“Still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth,” senior linebacker Jay Dineen said.

Statistically, it will be a matchup between the top two scoring defenses in the state. The defending state champion Panthers (11-0) have allowed 11.3 points per game. Sixth-seeded Free State (9-2), which on an eight-game winning streak, is right behind at 13.5 points per game.

“In some regards, they are like us,” Free State coach Bob Lisher said. “They are a pressure defense and they pressure a lot — so do we.

Something has to give.”

State’s line- Where: Derby backers are “probably the most aggressive unit I’ve seen this year.” The Firebirds feature Kansas commit Dineen, junior David Johnson and sophomore Jax Dineen at inside linebacker with senior Drew Wise and junior Gage Foster starting on the outside.

Those linebackers usually can roam free because their defensive linemen occupy blockers. Along with senior starters Noah Kema and Nick Eddis, juniors Nathan Spain and Adam Tapp have filled in with plenty of success.

“We just set really high expectations for ourselves,” Tapp said. “When everyone does their job, we do great.”

Plus, all of the defensive linemen bring different attributes to their play. Eddis has a knack for fighting offensive tackles, allowing linebackers to avoid big

WASHINGTON STATE QUARTERBACK PEYTON BENDER (6) drops back to pass against Washington in the first half of an NCAA college football game Nov. 27, 2015, in Seattle.

Former Washington State QB Peyton Bender to visit KU

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Trying to re-build the Kansas football program currently qualifies as a never-ending endeavor.

So while second-year head coach David Beaty and his staff attempt to get their players to execute a game plan worthy of upsetting Texas on Saturday in the Jayhawks’ home finale at Memorial Stadium, they’ll also spend portions of the weekend pitching KU to a former Pac-12 quarterback.

As reported by Jayhawk Slant, Peyton Bender, who played QB at Washington > FIREBIRDS, 3D State in 2015, begins his official visit to Kansas on Friday.

‘‘

One of the things that jumps out is they like to throw the ball around. they are considered an Air Raid type of offense. ...

I’ve seen a few of their games on TV, and I have been able to get an idea of what they’re trying to do.”

A year ago at this time, Bender began filling in at QB for WSU. He completed 36 of 58 passes for 288 yards and a touchdown, with two interceptions, in a loss at Washington to close the regular season, before No. 1 QB Luke Falk returned to lead the Cougars to a bowl victory.

In five appearances for Washington State — three of them brief — the 6-foot-1 QB from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., completed 58.2 percent of his 91 pass attempts for 498 yards, with three touchdowns and four interceptions.

Bender transferred to Itawamba Community College this past offseason after — Peyton Bender, being ruled academically on KU football’s

on the schedule, the Firebirds aren’t satisfied with their accomplishments.

Players and coaches admitted there is a different intensity in practice.

“I think Derby has their attention,” Lisher said.

In the last five games, Derby has outscored its opponents, 276-42. The Panthers, on a 21-game winning streak, haven’t won a game by less than 25 points this season.

If that doesn’t illus-

trate Derby’s dominance, there’s always the video game-type numbers in the stat book. Quarterback Dan Dawdy has tossed for 2,208 yards with 30 touchdowns and only four interceptions in 11 games. He’s added 381 rushing yards and nine touchdowns.

Dawdy’s top target is Kenyon Tabor, a Kansas commit, who has recorded 962 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns on 50 catches. Receivers Kai

Lemons, Michael Littleton and Lachlan Jones all have at least five touchdown receptions. Lisher said there’s “no doubt” that this is the best passing offense Free State has played this year.

Then there’s the ground game, led by junior Brody Kooser, who has 1,473 rushing yards and 28 touchdowns. He’s surpassed 100 yards in seven of the team’s 11 games.

Trust in this: The pain will be addressed, some way and somehow.

Proposition 64’s victory and the marijuanause votes in the three

other states offers ammunition, opportunity and timing to discuss the topic more broadly — including inside the jarring world of professional football.

It’s time to let the opposition go. The tired thinking fails to address far too many modern realities, inside of league locker rooms and out.

Ole Miss No. 7 Kansas Jayhawks (1-1) vs. Siena Saints (1-1) transfer 7 p.m. today, Allen Fieldhouse, Lawrence • TV: Jayhawk TV/ESPN3 • Radio: IMG Jayhawk Radio Network Coleby Log on to KUsports.com for our live game blog coverage and follow the KUsports.com staff on still awaits Twitter: @KUSports @mctait @TomKeeganLJW @bentonasmith & @nightengalejr his KU THREE KEYS FOR KANSAS debut

By Tom Keegan

1 23

tkeegan@ljworld.com

Two games into the season, reserve post player Dwight Coleby still hasn’t made his Kansas debut.

A 6-foot-9, 240-pound junior who transferred to Kansas from Ole Miss, Coleby tore the ACL in his left knee in Sept., 2015, and spent his redshirt season undergoing Coleby therapy.

He is cleared to play, but as is common with athletes in their first year back from reconstructive knee surgery, he hasn’t regained all of his previous form.

“There’s nothing that’s kept him from playing from my standpoint,” Kansas coach Bill Self said. “We’re listing him as healthy. He’s practicing every day, it’s just that he doesn’t have the same bounce and quickness as he had last year prior to injury. He’s still working on getting it back. It’s not anything I’ve got against Dwight, but it’s really not fair for him or fair for the team if he really can’t move to the point that he needs to.”

As a sophomore at Ole Miss, Coleby averaged 5.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 0.9 blocked shots and 16.5 minutes per game. He scored in double figures six times and reached double figures in rebounds once.

Self has used freshman Udoka Azubuike as the first big man off the bench, behind starters Landen Lucas and Carlton Bragg, and freshman Mitch Lightfoot as the second postplayer reserve.

Coleby totaled 20 minutes, eight points and eight rebounds in exhibition games vs. Div. II opponents Washburn and Emporia State.

Haskell to participate in Nike N7 initiative J-W Staff Report

For the second straight season, the Haskell Indian Nations basketball team will help highlight the Nike N7’s initiative as a part of Native American Heritage Month.

Out of the nine schools that will be wearing the N7 uniforms in a select game this season, Haskell is the only all-native university. Haskell will don the special uniforms on Nov. 28, when the women’s squad takes on Ottawa and the men’s team plays the University of St. Mary at the Coffin Complex.

Florida State, Gonzaga, Nevada, New Mexico, Marquette, Oklahoma State, San Diego State and Stanford are the other eight schools participating in Nike N7’s initiative.

According to a press release on news.nike. com, the goal on N7 is “to inspire and enable two million Native American and Aboriginal youth in North America to participate in sport and physical activity.”

Dominate defensively

Hit the boards

After tough, tough games against Top 10 teams Indiana and Duke, the Jayhawks return home for a matchup with a team that, while still talented, is not quite on the level of the teams the Jayhawks faced in the first two games this season.

That fact gives the Jayhawks a golden opportunity to gain a little confidence in some of the areas that caused them trouble in the first two games of the season.

While that might not mean as much for veteran stars like Frank Mason or Devonte’ Graham, it could do wonders for guys like Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk and Lagerald Vick or the freshmen, all of whom are still trying to figure out how to play their roles for this year’s team.

The Jayhawks were much better on the glass against Duke than they were against Indiana, out-rebouding the Blue Devils by nine after being punked on the boards by the Hoosiers in Hawaii.

That was the result of KU coach Bill Self putting a greater emphasis on rebounding in the days leading up to Tuesday’s game and you can bet that hasn’t stopped in the days since.

Add to that the fact that Siena enters the game having been outrebounded by its first two opponents by an average of 10 a game, and it’s fair to say that the Jayhawks should dominate the glass in this one and have their best rebounding night of the young season.

MEGA MATCHUP KU guard Frank Mason III vs. Siena guard Marquis Wright Although he’s a couple inches taller, Siena floor general and leading scorer Marquis Wright (26 points per game) gives up nearly 30 pounds to Mason and should have his hands full with the KU guard who is playing as well as any guard in the country.

Mason opened the Duke game guarding Blue Devils AllAmerican Grayson Allen, who stands 6-foot-5, 200 pounds, so he clearly is willing to hang

Three-point emphasis

Back in the cozy confines of their home gym, the Jayhawks figure to shoot the ball from three-point range much better than the 11.8 percent clip they shot at in New York.

But that’s only half of the equation when it comes to three-point shooting. For the third straight game, the Jayhawks will be facing a team that can get hot from distance if left open and it’ll be up to KU’s defense — along with its offense’s ability to match — to defend the Saints all the way out and force them to work hard to get their points.

JAYHAWK PULSE

with taller players. If he can use his bulk and strength to make Wright uncomfortable, that will go a long way toward helping Kansas improve to 2-1.

Mason figures to get help on Wright on the defensive end and it’s going to be about more than defense in this match-up, as Mason also will have to try to match the high-scoring Siena guard on the offensive end, as well.

Wright’s 31 points against Cornell in the Saints’ season opener, out-did Mason’s season-high of 30 against Indiana in Honolulu.

— Matt Tait

The Jayhawks, obviously, are riding high after their huge upset of No. 1 Duke in the Champions Classic in New York City. And after a pair of high-profile, showcasetype games to open the season KU is going to have to come back down to Earth a little with a regular season home game against a less famous foe.

Luckily for the Jayhawks tonight’s match-up is the home opener and that always seems to be accompanied by a little extra energy from the adoring home crowd.

Self has made it clear to his team that Siena is capable of

making this one tougher than Kansas might want it to be if the Jayhawks show up thinking it will be an easy victory because the name on the opposing jersey does not say Indiana or Duke. And, from the sound of things, the Jayhawks have received Self’s message loud and clear.

“We all just know that it’s college basketball and anybody can lose at any time, any day,” KU freshman Josh Jackson said Thursday. “We’re gonna treat it just like a Duke or Indiana game and come out and play really hard and tough and get the win.”

One win away A victory against Siena would give Self his 207th career victory in Allen Fieldhouse, making him the winningest coach in the history of the 62-year-old building.

considered an Air Raid type of offense. They probably run their offense a little different than some other Air Raids. But as far as what they want to do is chuck the ball around, which interests me. I’ve seen a few of their games on TV and I have been able to get an idea what they’re trying to do.”

KU (1-9 overall, 0-7 Big 12), which has started three different quarterbacks in 2016, is averaging 236.3 passing yards a game on 37.9 attempts a week.

Kansas currently has six quarterbacks on its roster: starting redshirt freshman Carter Stanley (one start this year), junior Montell Cozart (eight starts), sophomore Ryan Willis (two starts), true freshman Tyriek Starks, sophomore Keaton Perry and junior Deondre Ford.

Still, Beaty spoke recently of his openness to recruiting a juco or fifth-

year transfer quarterback.

“Well, our challenge scholarship-wise is always going to be there, but as we go through the season, our recruiting needs are gonna change, and as of right now,” Beaty said in early November, “we’re looking at everything. Everything, including quarterback.

We’ll look for anything and everything to try to make our rooms better.”

According to Bender’s conversation with Jayhawk Slant, Beaty, who also serves as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, told the recruit he would fit into KU’s offensive system.

“He said he likes how I sit in the pocket and how I dissect the defense in terms of what looks they are giving me,” Bender related, “and where to go with the football. He said he likes my release and overall (management) of the offense.”

Bender CONTINUED FROM 1D

ineligible at WSU for the 2016 season.

Playing at ICC, in Fulton, Miss., as a third-year sophomore (he redshirted his first year at WSU) Bender threw for 2,733 yards, and 21 touchdowns in nine games, completing 65.1 percent of his passes, with four interceptions.

Now looking to get back to the FBS level, Bender, who spent two years in Mike Leach’s Air Raid offense, told Jayhawk Slant he didn’t know much about KU football before speaking with Beaty. Since then, he has paid attention to the offense and the Kansas coach’s style.

“One of the things that jumps out is they like to throw the ball around,” Bender said. “They are

as just a competitor and a pit bull, I don’t know if I’ve ever coached anyone better at competing, especially at game point, than what he is,” Self said.

tries and Larry Brown, in just five seasons, was 71-5 at Allen Fieldhouse.

Asked what it would mean to add the title of winningest coach at KU’s home gym to his already sparkling resume, Self downplayed the achievement.

“It means that, obviously, Dr. (Phog) Allen didn’t coach in it,” he joked. “Because he would have that record easily. It’ll be nice, but I don’t think it’s going on anyone’s tombstone by any stretch.”

Tough test Siena might not have the national sparkle of programs like Indiana or Duke, but that does not

mean that the Jayhawks’ home opener will be a cake walk.

The senior-laden Saints return all five starters from last year’s squad and feature several veteran players who have played a lot of college ball and do not figure to be intimidated by Allen Fieldhouse or the KU players.

“It’s not the team that I was hoping we’d come home to after a long trip,” said Self, noting that Siena point guard Marquis Wright and forward Brett Bisping “could play for anybody.” “We’ll have to be ready, obviously.

Hopefully the crowd will be juiced for it.”
