Blue-collar careers the focus

t is one of those surprises in life. You graduate high school, head off to college on your way to some great

career, and then ...

“You’re studying in an area you’re interested in, and then you find out it is not that interesting,” said Marvin Hunt, executive director of the Dwayne Peaslee Technical Train-

ing Center. “Or, you find out there are not that many jobs out there.”

But then another type of surprise can happen, Hunt said.

“

— Marvin Hunt, executive director of the Dwayne Peaslee Technical Training Center

After nearly a month of receiving help for mental illness, Nathan Dean Thurman, 37, died along the side of Kansas Highway 10 this summer of a lethal dose of prescription antipsychotic medication he’d been prescribed at Osawatomie State Hospital, according to an autopsy report.

Thurman’s body was discovered around 5:45 a.m.

July 9 on the westbound side of K-10 near the intersection of East 1600 Road, Lawrence police said. There were no signs of foul play, according Thurman to police.

Thurman, whose autopsy report took more than four months, had voluntarily admitted himself to the state hospital about a month before his death for mood disorder, antisocial personality disorder and cocaine and alcohol abuse treatment.

Extreme soybeans? There’s an app for that, farmers learn

Hutchinston — Even across the most remote landscapes, technology is spiraling.

LAWRENCE • STATE

.

Autopsy

man’s Quetiapine bottle empty inside a bag he was wearing the day he died. The bottle indicated the prescription, which was supposed to have lasted him a month, had been filled five days before he died, the report said.

Lab results showed Thurman had 9.7 micrograms per milliliter of Quetiapine in his blood — an amount Douglas County Coroner Erik Mitchell described as a “toxic concentration.”

Thurman tested negative for commonly abused substances such as alcohol, amphetamines, marijuana and opiates.

Though prescribing potent medication to mental health sufferers is a “constant worry,” de Rocha said, there is little that state hospitals

can do to ensure proper disbursement of medication once a patient is released.

“We can’t follow every discharged patient around,” de Rocha said.

“There’s no way to force someone to take their medications properly.

We have civil liberties in this country.”

To aid in the transition from a hospital setting where professionals dispense medication, de Rocha said, Osawatomie creates discharge plans, which include direction on how to take medications and a list of local community health care centers for continuing treatment, de Rocha said.

Bert Nash staff told police Thurman had his initial follow-up care appointment July 7, just two days before his death, the

autopsy report said.

Though the autopsy results show how Thurman died, Yoshida said it’s hard to speculate why the man consumed so much of the mood disorder drug. The report did not say that Thurman had intentionally killed himself, only that he died of Quetiapine intoxication.

Yoshida said that when working with an individual like Thurman who is new to the center, an additional danger arises.

If Thurman had a longterm relationship with a case manager, Yoshida said, things might have been different.

“We’re already handicapped because we didn’t know him that well. We assume a person is telling you what’s going on with them,” Yoshida said.

Yoshida said that it is difficult to anticipate what a person is likely to do if in need of immediate symptom relief.

“Erratic behavior is hard to predict,” Yoshida said. “A person may lack impulse control.”

But with Quetiapine, Yoshida said he doubted a patient would take more than prescribed for faster relief because the drug works quickly and induces sleep.

“This medicine reaches the blood and gets to the brain quickly, compared to other atypical

center or community college that employs its own faculty and instructors.

“We’re kind of like an educational broker,” Hunt said. “We will facilitate other educational partners coming in and offering classes.”

That means students may actually enroll with community colleges or other technical training centers that would use the Lawrence facility to host classes. A detailed list of organizations that plan to offer classes at the facility hasn’t been finalized, but previously community colleges in Neosho County, Johnson County and Kansas City, Kan., have expressed an interest.

In the beginning, classes largely will be limited to three industrial categories: manufacturing, automotive and construction. In addition, Hunt said, he anticipates there will be some general classes in areas such as problem solving, critical thinking, communication, team work and other such “soft skills” that area employers have told Hunt are often lacking in job applicants.

The center will be in the former Honeywell plant just east and north

of the 31st and Haskell intersection. The Lawrence public school district is building a new college and career center adjacent to the facility.

The district’s center will focus on training high school students in areas such as robotics, health care and information technology.

Hun said high school students will have an opportunity to take classes at the Peaslee Center if they are interested in one of the career paths offered by the center.

Hunt said he also has been in discussions with the school district about some of the district’s high school automotive classes moving to the Peaslee Center because it will include a state-of-art automotive lab. A decision on such a move hasn’t been made, he said.

Several details must be worked out before the center can open. For example, about $1.2 million worth of renovation work still needs to be completed at the building. The center will be seeking partial funding from the city and county commissions in the coming weeks. Hunt said when the center learned in September it had not

won the $10 million Department of Labor grant, Peaslee Center leaders had to adjust their plans.

“The silver lining in all of this is that the grant made you look at certain types of programs,” Hunt said. “Now, we have every freedom to look at any programming.”

Hunt said the center settled on the initial areas of manufacturing, automotive and construction for a variety of reasons.

A number of auto dealers said they have high demand for trained mechanics and often have to send their existing mechanics to seminars outside of the region for training.

On the construction front, Hunt said that although single-family home construction in Lawrence had slowed some, there are still jobs available in commercial construction, especially as Kansas University has undertaken many projects.

Manufacturing jobs in Lawrence have been fairly stagnant in recent years, but Hunt said economic development leaders believe part of the reason is that the community hasn’t had a technical training center

There, a doctor prescribed several medications, including 60 300-milligram tablets of Quetiapine, an atypical antipsychotic drug that ultimately caused his death soon after his July 1 discharge, according to the report.

Lawrence’s Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center Medical Director Dr. Takeshi Yoshida said Quetiapine is used to treat serious mental illnesses like schizophrenia, psychosis or mood disorders and produces a sedating effect, though it is not classified as a sedative.

Providing proper medical care while also trying to prevent abuse is an obstacle health care officials deal with every day, said Angela de Rocha, spokeswoman for the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services, which oversees Osawatomie. Thurman’s case is one of many she has heard about involving mentally ill patients who succumb to the risks their care providers fear.

“It’s very sad. You have to balance the care, plus the potential for abuse,” de Rocha said.

Police found Thur-

“Then they remember they welded a time or two, or they remember some of the skills they used growing up on a farm, and they find out they can make the same amount of money or more, and do what they really enjoy,” Hunt said.

In Lawrence, finding the type of training needed to launch such a blue-collar career has been difficult. Lawrence residents who are past their high school years often have had to drive to Kansas City or Topeka for such training.

Hunt said the new Peaslee Center will start meeting some of those training needs by midAugust.

Project leaders learned earlier this year that they didn’t win a key federal grant they were seeking, but Hunt said plans still call for the center to open Aug. 15.

The initial scope, though, may be a bit different than what was first envisioned. Hunt said the center initially won’t be a typical technical training

Yoshida said that if Bert Nash had been the hospital to prescribe the medication and suspected suicidality, safety measures would have been taken.

“If somebody has the potential to harm (himself), we try giving small amounts of medicine at a time,” Yoshida said.

The night before his death, Thurman left the Lawrence Community Shelter around 9 p.m. and “did not appear agitated” in surveillance video, the report said.

“Residents of the community shelter told investigators the decedent was not depressed or upset, but said it was ‘time to move on,’” Lawrence police detective Zac Thomas wrote in the report.

Community shelter kitchen volunteer Patrick Quinn told the Journal-World last month that before Thurman left, he had been asking residents how to get to Kansas City. Quinn said Thurman’s spontaneous itch to leave Lawrence didn’t seem suspicious.

“He was a footloose guy; it didn’t feel like he was trying to flee,” Quinn said.

to supply the workforce to new manufacturers.

Creating that workforce, and in turn attracting more manufacturers to the area, is a major goal of the center.

“On the top line of our mission statement is to be a catalyst for economic growth,” Hunt said.

But Hunt said he’s equally excited about some of the opportunities the center will create for area residents.

Hunt has had a career in higher education since the 1980s and most recently was the head of workforce development and dean of business and continuing education at Kansas City Kansas Community College.

He has been a Lawrence resident since the 1970s, and he said the opportunity to help build a program in his home city was appealing.

“I think we can really help people develop a sense of career,” Hunt said. “I think that is sometimes missing with people.

“It is really appealing to me to think I can be part of laying a foundation that will help people make a living wage here in Lawrence for years to come.”

She may be digging through the emergency closet she set up in her office to find shoes, jeans or a coat for a student who has none.

Lounsbury said that occasionally someone will try to let Gary or Jade out the front door, which is not a good idea, since greyhounds can run up to 45 mph.

“Dad will open the door and say, ‘Your dog wants to go out.’ I don’t think so,” she said, laughing.

She said the greeters, like most greyhounds, are gentle and especially fond of strollers, which usually are good for crumbs.

East Lawrence cell tower proposal gets people talking W

hen it comes to the 1990s and wireless communications, I remember two things: cellphones the size of a small poodle and many complaints from area residents about cellphone towers. (A poodle owner in my neighborhood also had many complaints, even though I told him I was just momentarily confused.)

Well, thankfully, we’re not going back to the 1990s, but there may be an oldfashioned cellphone tower debate brewing.

A company representing Verizon Wireless has proposed building a 120-foot monopole communications tower at 1725 Bullene Ave. in East Lawrence. If you are having a hard time picturing the location, it is a small industrial area about a block west of Haskell Avenue between Lynn and LaSalle streets.

I’m sure that clears it right up. The site is along the Burroughs Creek Trail and is generally northwest of 19th and Haskell.

The property is zoned industrial, but there are quite a few houses near the site. Michael Almon, a member of the Brook

Creek Neighborhood Association, has told me there are concerns with the idea of a 120-foot tower there.

Ultimately, this will end up as an issue for Lawrence city commissioners to decide. We used to have several of those type of debates at City Hall, but as the wireless industry has matured we’ve seen less of them. Plus, the city created some policies that required wireless companies to share tower space whenever possible. This tower is being designed to accommodate up to two other carriers, according to the plans filed at City Hall.

In terms of why the new tower is needed, the application doesn’t provide a lot of detail, other than to say it will “provide enhanced wireless voice and data services” to local subscribers. I’ll let you know how the issue plays out. l l l

The winner will be announced at the organization’s annual meeting in January.

While Jackson’s daily to-do list may change by the minute in this school where 73 percent of students qualify for free and reduced lunch, her daily directive does not. “The ultimate goal is that the students do the best they can in school,” she said.

It’s working. Of the 89 students on Jackson’s case management roster for the 2013-2014 school year, 93 percent worked with her to establish an academic goal, and 96 percent met that goal.

Right now she is serving as case manager for 72 students, working with them one on one to set and achieve goals like regular school attendance, positive social behavior and academic improvement.

In addition, she helps all students at Kennedy on a less formal basis with things like scheduling academic tutoring with area volunteers, helping their families with emergency services and making referrals for ongoing support from local human service agencies.

Corn Advisor: From the University of Arkansas, this app has different features such as calculating lime and nutrient rates and identifying nutrient deficiencies, diseases and insects.

Pioneer Plantability: This app works as a planter settings calculator to give farmers precise planter settings for corn and sunflower seeds of all sizes and shapes.

Ag PhD Planting Population: The calculator has two functions. First, during planting season the app can determine optimum inrow spacing between seeds based upon row width and the desired planting population per acre. Second, after crop emergence, it allows farmers to determine a stand count by helping them count the number of plants that have emerged in a specific row length.

Developers have told the city the project will be designed to look like single-family homes or townhomes, rather than multistory apartment complexes.

The development group for the project is led by Johnson County apartment developers David and Suzanne Rhodes. They currently own five other affordable “garden/ranch style apartment” developments in Kansas and also own or manage about 350 conventional apartment units. l l l

This could be dangerous. There is an outside chance that I may have to start busting myths rather than simply relying on the television program “Myth Busters” to do the work for me. (I think on Thanksgiving I busted a myth about elastic waistbands, or perhaps I just busted an elastic waistband.)

“When we sat down to do the planning for our education goal almost four years ago, all the community partners engaged in education asked the question, ‘How do we support the students living in families who are on the brink of homelessness, are hungry, are not getting the supports they need at home to be able to show up to school ready to learn?’ Communities in Schools helps address that need,” explained Erika Dvorske, president and CEO of United Way of Douglas County. “We are thrilled to work alongside the educators at Kennedy who are doing great work in the classroom and in the community.”

the channel for awhile.

I don’t know if that is a very likely possibility, but officials have posted a public notice that alerts viewers that WOW’s contract with Discovery expires on Dec. 31.

“Although we are working to negotiate a fair price for these networks after Dec. 31, Discovery may turn off their networks or require us to remove all their channels until a new agreement is secured,” the notice states.

Several networks could be in jeopardy, if the contract is not renewed.

Discovery also owns TLC, Animal Planet, Destination America and several other channels.

I put a call into a WOW official to get an update on negotiations, but haven’t heard back yet. If you’re a TV fan, it may be an issue worth watching. These types of negotiations with cable networks go a long way in determining how much your cable bill may have to increase in the future.

Jackson works at Kennedy every day to help students plug into the diverse support services United Way’s partners provide. She recommends students to be Littles for Big Brothers Big Sisters’ school and community matches. She encourages parents to enroll their children in the Boys & Girls Club so they can participate in constructive after-school programs like Power Hour, Girl Scouts, sports teams and clubs that parents might not be able to afford otherwise.

“Our partnership with Communities in Schools is producing great results, and we are honored to be recognized by the national organization for our work at Kennedy. It’s an endorsement of the collective work that is going on in our community,” Dvorske said. “We want to keep making progress toward our destination of improving student success by supporting the students and their families.”

More graffiti appears at Lawrence High School Staff Reports

Officers worked to remove graffiti that was spray painted onto the outside walls of Lawrence High School on Sunday afternoon, police spokesman Sgt. Damon Thomas said.

Multiple profane messages directed at LHS were seen scrawled onto the building Sunday morning when officers took a police report, Thomas said.

The messages were phallic in nature and drawn onto the brick in red, white and blue spray paint.

This is the third vandalism report concerning Lawrence high schools since the beginning of the school year. In September, several Free State High School students wrote a racial epithet on the LHS football field. The following week, a Lawrence school bus was vandalized with anti-Free State messages.

No suspects have been identified in connection with the incident, Damon said.

Alvamar future The Lawrence builder who bartered the public-private deal on Rock Chalk Park now is turning his attention to Alvamar.

A

lvamar Golf and Country Club leaders have confirmed they have reached a preliminary deal to sell the prominent west Lawrence property to Bliss Sports, a group that Lawrence builder Thomas Fritzel founded to facilitate the public-private partnership at Rock Chalk Park.

Fritzel hasn’t yet filed any plans for the Alvamar property, but as the project moves forward, it will be interesting to see whether any Rock Chalk Park ghosts come back to haunt the new effort.

Alvamar’s future apparently will involve an expanded partnership with Kansas University’s golf program. The Kansas Athletics website indicates that “exciting changes are in the works” for the Knapheide Family Practice Facility at Alvamar. The Jayhawks, in partnership with the Williams Education Fund and Treanor Architects, it says, have started the process of raising funds to make the practice facility five times larger, adding more indoor practice space, along with team lounges and locker rooms for both the men’s and women’s teams.

It sounds like a great project.

There is no mention on the website of who will build the new facility. Is having Bliss Sports do the construction part of the deal? Bliss Sports owns the facilities at Rock Chalk Park and leases them to KU for athletic events. The university probably would want to maintain ownership of the indoor golf facility, but what will the arrangement be for KU use of the golf course? Will the KU Endowment Association be involved in the deal? What, if anything, did Kansas Athletics or Endowment officials learn from the Rock Chalk Park deal that might guide their decisions about the Alvamar partnership?

City officials certainly should have learned something from the Rock Chalk Park deal that could affect their decision on any public incentives or partnership with Bliss Sports and/or KU on the Alvamar project. The public-private partnership involved in Rock Chalk Park left the city spending millions of public tax dollars for infrastructure without even being able to see the itemized bills, which one of the private partners refused to share.

Fritzel hasn’t indicated whether he will seek any public incentives at Alvamar or what kind of incentives those might be, but, if such a request is made, the city should be sure to nail down the financial details in a better way than they did with Rock Chalk Park.

The Alvamar club and golf course and the surrounding housing developments embodied the vision of Lawrence businessman Bob Billings and have been a true community gem. Hopefully, the new owner’s plans for that property will respect that legacy and build Alvamar into an even greater asset for Lawrence.

Obama overreach may spur reaction For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

— Newton’s Third Law of Motion

Washington — America’s Newtonian Constitution might again function according to Madisonian expectations if a provoked Congress regains its spine and self-respect, thereby returning our constitutional architecture to equipoise.

But this is more to be hoped for than expected. Even without this, however, the institutional vandalism of Barack Obama’s executive

George Will

“

Not since the offyear elections of 1938, when voters rebuked Franklin Roosevelt for his attempt to pack the Supreme Court by enlarging it, has the electorate made constitutional equilibrium a central concern.” unilateralism still might be a net national benefit. It will be if the Republicans’ 2016 presidential nominee responds to Obama’s serial provocations by promising a return to democratic etiquette grounded in presidential self-restraint.

Not since the off-year elections of 1938, when voters rebuked Franklin Roosevelt for his attempt to pack the Supreme Court by enlarging it, has the electorate made constitutional equilibrium a central concern.

James Madison, however, hoped institutional balance could be self-maintaining: “Ambition must be made to counteract ambition. The interest of the man must be connected with the constitutional rights of the place.”

He expected that the rivalries between self-inter-

ested branches would produce an equal and opposite reaction to a rival’s overreaching. This would hold the branches in a planetary balance akin to that of the solar system, preventing the concentration of legislative and executive power in the same hands, which he defined as tyranny.

Before conservatives had the disorienting delight of Ronald Reagan’s presidency, they had a healthy suspicion of executive power, and an inclination to favor congressional supremacy. (See “Congress and the American Tradition” by James Burnham, one of William F. Buckley’s collaborators in founding National Review.)

Congress, however, has long since ceased to be a reliable custodian of its own powers.

And now it has permanent and deepening attention deficit disorder: It can neither control nor even maintain meaningful oversight over the sprawling government it has created.

According to historian Morton Keller in “America’s Three Regimes,” members of early Congresses were more numerous than federal bureaucrats. Today there are many more than 535 executive departments, agencies and other entities that Congress funds without effective supervision and to which a harried, distracted Congress delegates discretion tantamount to legislative power. James Buckley, in his forthcom-

ing book “Saving Congress from Itself,” reports: “Shortly after my election to the Senate in 1970, I was handed a recently completed study of Congress that had concluded that the workload of the average congressional office had doubled every five years since 1935. ... I can certify that during my own six years in office, I witnessed a sharp increase in the already frenetic pace of the Senate and an equally sharp decline in its ability to get very much done that could honestly be labeled ‘thoughtful.’”

There have been 1,950 senators since the Constitution was ratified, and none has done as much damage to the institution’s deliberative capacity as Harry Reid has done as majority leader.

He has broken its rules in order to rewrite its rules and has bent its procedures, all in the service of presidential preferences. He and his caucus exemplify how progressives, confident that they know history’s proper destination, are too resultsoriented to be interested in institutional conservation.

America’s two vainest presidents, Woodrow Wilson and Obama, have been the most dismissive of the federal government’s Madisonian architecture. Wilson, the first president to criticize America’s Founding, was especially impatient with the separation of powers, which he considered, as Obama does, an affront to his dual

Not affordable To the editor: A friend of mine works 35 hours a week at a minimum wage job ($7.25/hour). He doesn’t get benefits, as the employer keeps his employees’ hours under 40 hours per week for this reason.

I helped my friend call the Kansas Health Care Exchange to get health insurance. He was told he doesn’t qualify for any assistance, but he can pay $79 a month — $948 a year — for coverage that would kick in 60 percent after he had paid $6,300 in expenses out of pocket. He was also told that with his income, he will not be fined for not signing up to be insured.

So his options are to sign up for insurance and, if he has a health issue, pay up to $7,248 of his $13,195 gross income (55 percent) for care, or he can do nothing, go to the emergency room and run up the stratospheric rates for treatment that only the uninsured have to pay. (My insurance company bragged about how they whittle my hospital charges to less than 20 percent of the bill, screwing the caregivers while collecting huge premiums from us for their “service.”)

My friend won’t be able to pay those rates, of course, so the losses are absorbed by the hospital and, ultimately,

Park needed To the editor: Lawrence needs a new off-road vehicle park. The closest park for off-road vehicles such as dirt bikes and ATVs is by the Perry Lake dam. The Perry Lake park is a great facility and is a lot of fun, but it is a little bit of a drive if you live in Lawrence or surrounding cities.

A place that the park could be constructed is the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land surrounding Clinton Lake. I think that an off-road vehicle park would be a great addition to Lawrence and would be good for the town.

Kansas didn’t accept the federal money for people who need help affording insurance. I don’t know how his situation would change if he lived in a state that accepted federal money. All I know is that, for many people, this isn’t fair, and it isn’t affordable.

grandeur: The president is a plebiscitary tribune of the entire people, monopolizing true democratic dignity that is denied to mere legislators.

And progressive presidents have unexcelled insight into history’s progressive trajectory, and hence should have untrammeled freedom to act.

Courts will not try to put a bridle and snaffle on a rampaging president, and perhaps Congress cannot, even if it summons the will to try.

So we are reduced to hoping for something Madison was reluctant to rely on — executive self-restraint in response to a popular demand for it.

Fortunately, Obama’s ongoing and intensifying assault on constitutional equilibrium is so gross it has produced something commensurately remarkable — growing public interest in matters of governmental processes. Obama, who aspired to a place in the presidential pantheon, will leave office with a status more like Chester Arthur’s than Franklin Roosevelt’s, but without an achievement as large and popular as Arthur’s civil service reform. Obama will, however, merit the nation’s backhanded gratitude if the 2016 Republican presidential nominee makes central to a successful campaign a promise to retreat voluntarily from his predecessor’s Caesarism.

of Nov. 26. Ms. Northway, you said to show you one passage in the New Testament where Jesus mentions or criticizes gays. Maybe you don’t know that God and Jesus are one and the same. Jesus was God come to Earth. Everything in the Bible is God-spoken. He used different people to write it down.

Paul wrote the book of Romans in the New Testament. Read verses 18-28 in Chapter One. Since Jesus and God are the same, these are the words of Jesus, and, yes, Jesus loves everyone; it’s the things we do he does not accept.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Dec. 1, 1914: years “This morning ago about 8 o’clock IN 1914 as the Bell telephone repair truck was going to work out at Clinton, it skidded and upset in a ditch just south of the Number 6 School House. There were six occupants of the truck. They were all piled in a heap under the truck mixed with the tools which they were going to work with…. The men were brought back to town where they were given medical attention.”

“The bi-annual meeting of athletic managers, coaches, and faculty members of the Missouri Valley Conference will be held in Lincoln, Neb., Friday, to arrange basketball, track and baseball schedules for the coming season…. The basketball schedule will probably consist of four games with Missouri, four with Washington, and four with the Kansas Aggies, leaving six games to be filled by non-conference teams …”

“The University of Kansas has started a motion picture film exchange, which it will operate free of charge for the benefit of school children in small Kansas towns. Prof. F. R. Hamilton, director of the extension work at the university, saw the advantages of teaching by means of motion pictures.”

Police, protesters clash in Hong Kong; 40 arrested Hong Kong (ap) — Prodemocracy protesters clashed with police late Sunday as they tried to surround Hong Kong government headquarters, stepping up their movement for genuine democratic reforms after camping out on the city’s streets for more than two months.

Repeating scenes that have become familiar since the movement began in late September, protesters carrying umbrellas — which have become symbols of the pro-democracy movement — battled police armed with pepper spray, batons and riot shields.

After student leaders told a big crowd rallying Sunday evening at the main protest site outside

government headquarters that they would escalate their campaign, hundreds of protesters pushed past police lines on the other side of the complex from the protest site. They blocked traffic on a main road, but were stopped by police barricades from going down a side road to Chief Executive Leung Chun-Ying’s office.

The protesters, many wearing surgical masks, hard hats and safety goggles and chanting “I want true democracy,” said they wanted to occupy the road to prevent Leung and other government officials from getting to work.

At one point, police charged the crowd, aggressively pushing demonstrators back with

pepper spray and batons, after some protesters started pelting them with water bottles and other objects. They later fell back, letting demonstrators re-occupy the road.

Police Senior Superintendent Tsui Wai-hung said 40 protesters had been arrested, adding that authorities would not let the road, a major thoroughfare, remain blocked.

“We will open up this road,” he told reporters.

Protesters said they were taking action to force a response from China’s government, which has made little effort to address their demands that it scrap a plan to screen candidates for Hong Kong’s leader in the inaugural 2017 elections.

Authorities attribute Acapulco, Mexico — Five mutilated bodies were found in a region of southern Mexico where 11 decapitated corpses were found just three days ago, authorities said Sunday.

The five bodies, also decapitated, were found early Sunday in the back of a vehicle abandoned in the municipality of Chilapa, the Guerrero state prosecutor’s office said in a statement. The bodies have not been identified.

Madrid’s Clinico San Carlos hospital said a man died of injuries sustained in the clash between rival fans that broke out hours before the game near the Vicente Calderon stadium.

The man, identified only as a 43-year-old Deportivo fan, had to be removed from Madrid’s Manzanares River and attended to by emergency services, which initially resuscitated him before transferring him to a hospital where he died hours later.

The presidents of both clubs appeared together on television to lament the incident.

KANSAS 61, MICHIGAN 56

Disney princes Ellis helps KU nab crown

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kissimmee, Fla. — Mickey Mouse stretched to place his over-sized right hand on Perry Ellis’ shoulder as the Kansas University junior accepted Orlando Classic MVP honors on Sunday afternoon in HP Field House.

The Walt Disney World mascot gawked at the engraved wristwatch that went to the 6-foot-8 Wichita native following a 17-point, nine-rebound performance that paced the No. 11-ranked Jayhawks to a 61-56 victory over the No. 20-rated Spartans in the tourney’s title game.

“I think it’s big. It’s great for us. We came down here and got better as a team,” Ellis said, referring to KU (5-1) storming to victories over Rhode Island, Tennessee and Michigan State (5-2).

“It’s just a big momentum boost for us, to continue to get better.”

The Jayhawks, who outrebounded yet-another gritty, physical Tom Izzocoached team, 44-36, and held MSU to 32.2 percent shooting — 24.2 percent the second half — won their first eight-team in-season tournament since the 1999 Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo Great Alaska Shootout.

KU volleyball to host … in Topeka Broncos rule J-W Staff Reports

Think Kansas University volleyball coach Ray Bechard is miffed that, for the third straight year, his Jayhawks earned the right to host the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament, but for the first time in that span they won’t actually play a game in Lawrence?

Think again.

The Jayhawks learned Sunday night that they had earned the tournament’s No. 16 national seed and will host games Friday and Saturday. But their campus home, Horejsi Center, is too small to host NCAA Tournament games, and their erstwhile tourney home-away-fromhome, Allen Fieldhouse, will be otherwise occupied by a men’s basketball game Friday night.

So KU will open the

“Our kids have played well on the road,” Bechard said Sunday night. “We get to be

the home team and play on the road. Maybe it’s the best of both worlds for us.”

KU will play host to Florida in men’s basketball at 8 p.m. Friday, necessitating the move.

“It’s nothing we had any control over,” Bechard said.

“Administratively, they did everything they could, but we really didn’t have any choice. But Topeka will still allow a ton of Jayhawk fans to be in attendance. It’ll be easier for the kids, and we don’t have to go into any seeded team and play on the road, even if it’s not in Horejsi or Allen Fieldhouse.

It’s still a great advantage for us.”

Creighton (25-8) and Oregon State (19-12) will meet in the other first-round game at 4 p.m. Friday, followed by KU (22-8) and UALR (29-4) at 6:30 p.m. Friday’s winners will meet at 6:30 p.m.

Chiefs again

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos proved their mastery of the Kansas City Chiefs once more on a chilly Sunday night at Arrowhead Stadium.

Manning threw two touchdown passes, recently signed Connor Barth was perfect on five field-goal attempts, and the Broncos rolled to a 29-16 victory, their sixth straight over Kansas City and one that kept them alone in first place in the AFC West.

Barth matched the franchise record for field goals in a game set twice by Jason Elam. C.J. Anderson added 168 yards rushing with a 15-yard touchdown catch, and Demaryius Thomas also had a TD grab to help the Broncos (9-3) remain a game up on San Diego in the division.

Alex Smith had 153 yards passing and two touchdowns for the Chiefs (7-5), Please see CHIEFS, page 3B

Bo Pelini fired after seven seasons with Cornhuskers Lincoln, Neb. — The number of wins and losses didn’t get Bo Pelini fired. It was the way some of those losses happened.

Pelini was dismissed as Nebraska’s coach Sunday after a seven-year stint marked by an inability to restore the football team to national prominence and too many embarrassing defeats.

Pelini extended his streak of winning at least nine games every season with a 3734 overtime win at Iowa on Friday, but he never won a conference championship, and his teams lost four games in every season he completed. Pelini was 66-27 and led the Cornhuskers to three league championship games in the Big 12 and Big Ten. “I didn’t see enough improvement in areas that were important for us to move forward to play championship-caliber football,” athletic director Shawn Eichorst said at a news conference.

Associate head coach Barney Cotton, a Nebraska alum, will be the interim head coach for the Cornhuskers’ bowl game.

Missing player found dead Columbus, Ohio — A missing Ohio State football player who disappeared

HIGH SCHOOLS HUB:

TWO-DAY

shortly after sending a text message about his concussions was found dead Sunday, apparently of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police said.

Police tell media outlets the body of 22-year-old Kosta Karageorge was found near the campus after a search since he went missing Wednesday. The senior defensive tackle from Columbus had last been seen at his apartment in Columbus, when his roommates said he left to go on a walk.

The body was found within a couple hundred yards of Karageorge’s house. The house was dark Sunday evening and no one answered when a reporter knocked on the metal door. A few coffee mugs holding what could have been some small plants were on the window sill of the darkened two-story, gray clapboard home with black shutters. Christmas decorations could be seen on some surrounding apartments.

Crimson Tide tops AP poll Alabama is No. 1 in the Associated Press college football poll for the first time this season, replacing undefeated Florida State in a vote that was about as close as it

could get. The Crimson Tide (11-1) received 25 of a possible 59 first-place votes from the media panel and 1,426 points.

The Seminoles (12-0) have 29 firstplace votes and 1,423 points.

The last time the No. 2 team had more first-place votes than the No. 1 team this late in the season was Nov. 25, 1968, when No. 1 Ohio State had 211⁄2 firstplaces votes to Southern California’s 241⁄2.

Alabama is No. 1 for the 72nd time overall and first since it lost last year’s Iron Bowl.

The Tide beat Auburn 55-44 on Saturday.

Auburn fires DC after loss Auburn, Ala. — Auburn fired defensive coordinator Ellis Johnson a day after giving up 55 points to rival Alabama.

Tigers coach Gus Malzahn announced the firing Sunday following a late-season slide that ended with a 55-44 loss in the Iron Bowl.

The Tigers gave up 539 yards to the top-ranked Crimson Tide on Saturday night in the highest-scoring Iron Bowl.

No. 2 Irish thump Kansas BOX SCORE

J-W Staff and Wire Reports

Uncasville, Conn.

— Kansas University’s women’s basketball team didn’t get a chance to ease into its away-fromhome schedule.

Playing away from Allen Fieldhouse for the first time this season, the Jayhawks were shellacked, 89-47, by No. 2 Notre Dame on Sunday at Mohegan Sun Arena.

Kansas seniors Chelsea Gardner and Natalie Knight each scored in double figures.

Gardner, who has scored 10 or more points in every contest this season, finished the afternoon with a team-high 15 points and six rebounds.

Knight contributed 13 points thanks to a 3-for-4 performance from behind the three-point arc. Kansas shot 38 percent from the field and was just behind Notre Dame’s 33 rebounds with 29 boards.

Notre Dame (7-0) had three reach double digits and helped lead the No. 1 scoring offense in the country to a 55 percent shooting percentage. Junior guard Jewell Loyd led the Irish with 23 points.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY’S ASIA BOYD (0) AND NOTRE DAME’S MARKISHA WRIGHT FIGHT FOR A POSSESSION during the second half of Notre Dame’s 89-47 victory Sunday in Uncasville, Connecticut.

She was followed by junior guard Michaela Mabrey and sophomore guard Lindsay Allen, who had 17 and 11 points, respectively.

Kansas outrebounded Notre Dame in the first few minutes, but the Jayhawks (5-2) were unable to convert at the other end, keeping the Fighting Irish in the game. ND opened with a 9-2 run.

“Once they got going

in transition it led to easy baskets,” Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson said.

“They create chaos on defense with their length, and it’s tough to match.”

Gardner was recognized as the most outstanding player for Kansas in the Naismith Hall of Fame Women’s Basketball Challenge. A member of each team was given this award.

Loss motivates KU football

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

They don’t know who will lead them as their head coach in 2015, but the handful of Kansas University football players who spoke with the media after Saturday’s season-ending 51-13 loss at Kansas State seemed to have a pretty good idea of the direction they believe the program is headed.

“It goes up,” said junior quarterback Michael Cummings, who likely will have a healthy lead in the race to become KU’s quarterback next season.

“We’ve gotta come together in the offseason.

It’s tough to talk about right now because we just lost a game, and our season’s over, but we’ve gotta be better than we were this year and put some games together and put some wins together.”

Cummings, like many of his teammates, has made it clear during recent weeks he would like to play his senior season for Clint Bowen, KU’s in-

terim head coach for the past nine weeks and one of a handful of options for KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger as he searches for a full-time replacement for Charlie W e i s .

C u m - Cummings mings reiterated his stance after Saturday’s loss but also discussed the importance of personal accountability and the role that plays in helping the program get back on track.

“The urgency is different,” he said when asked about the offseason heading into his senior year.

“But it’s about building up the people around you.

It’s not just about one person. If everybody can be in that leadership role, then that’s a better team.”

That was a staple of the Bowen philosophy during the nine weeks he was in charge, and he emphasized that again Sat-

urday night in the locker room and at his postgame meeting with the media.

“The message in there was to thank those seniors,” Bowen said after the loss to K-State, which made him 1-7 as KU’s interim head coach. “Regardless of how their careers went here, there’s nothing to be ashamed of. The message to the underclassmen was to remember the feeling we have right now, to remember where we’re at and keep that feeling for everything we do from this time forward.”

At least a couple of Jayhawks said that was exactly what they would remember about Saturday’s loss and the disappointing finish to another 3-9 season.

“It hurts,” junior running back De’Andre Mann said. “I’m gonna soak this feeling in and gonna dedicate myself and work even harder so I don’t have to feel this again next year. ... Whatever coach wants, that’s what I’m gonna do.”

SUMMARY

Bechard confessed a few jitters before Sunday’s Selection Show.

“There was some suspense,” he said, “not suspense whether we’d get in or not, but I thought we were a bubble team (to host). You never know how that’s going to go. It’s exciting to be seeded.”

When Bechard made his first inquiries into KU’s first-round foe, a bit of that excitement dissipated.

“It’s interesting because I heard some talk from coaches going around that this team could be trouble,” he said.

“Last year, American surprised some people when they got to the Sweet 16.

Some people (this year) were mentioning Arkansas-Little Rock and their foreign players. I looked it up, and they won 25 in a row. … If you win 25 in a row, you’re doing something right.

“But it’ll be a great test.

With Creighton and Oregon State there, there should be a lot of good volleyball in Topeka.”

Sunday afternoon, Bowen and the Jayhawks honored the 21 seniors leaving the program with a banquet that celebrated their careers. That banquet, which included several individual awards and recognitions, marked the final act of the 2014 season, and it’ll be business as usual for Bowen from here on out, even if everything around him is on the brink of changing.

“We’ll be out on the road recruiting next week,” Bowen said. “We’ll be visiting those young men who are committed to us, so we’ll get out and about early next week at some point in time and continue to sell all the things that are positive about Kansas regardless of the head-coaching situation. There’s still a tremendous amount of positives and reasons that those young men chose to come to Kansas in the first place, and we’ll just continue to build on those and work hard to keep those commitments solid.”

“There’s really not

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD JAMARI TRAYLOR (31) IS SURROUNDED BY TEAMMATES after the Jayhawks’ 61-56 victory over Michigan State in the championship game of the Orlando Classic on Sunday in Kissimmee, Florida.

Izzo: ‘A dead man can make a layup’

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Kissimmee, Fla. — High-flying Michigan State senior forward Branden Dawson, slowed by the flu since Monday, might have a get-well card waiting for him upon his return from East

Lansing, Michigan, but it won’t be from his coach, Tom Izzo.

Dawson grabbed nine rebounds but could only get four of his 15 shots, most from near the hoop, to go down. Izzo was asked if he thought his struggles were related to his lingering illness.

“I’m just not going to comment on that,” Izzo said.

And then he commented on it.

“I think a dead man can make a layup,” Izzo said.

“We missed some layups, and I’m very disappointed in that. But you know, when you’re sick — some

people play well sick, some people don’t. Michael Jordan played well.”

For a long second-half stretch, the pace was so fast as to be huried, and both teams took it hard to the basket, maybe too hard to shoot with a soft touch.

“We missed a lot of layups that I usually hit,”

quick point guard Travis Trice said. “I know, myself, I missed a few. Just the ball falling the wrong way for us. Those are shots we hit every day.

Not to take anything away from them, but those are shots we make every day.

I think it’s more on us.”

Izzo said, “You just can’t

miss easy shots. The number of layups we missed was incredible. I’m not sure Kansas played great.

I’m not sure Michigan State played great. Maybe we should be crediting both defenses. They found a way to win. Give them credit. We found a way to lose. Give us blame.”

I’m happy for our team,” Self stated. “Gosh, did we compete. I thought we guarded them pretty well and were focused.

We couldn’t get back (because) they are so good in transition, but we did an unbelievable job on the glass.”

Point guard Frank Mason III, who probably could fit into the Mickey Mouse mascot costume, grabbed a career-high 10 rebounds to go with 10 points and five assists against three turnovers in 36 minutes. He joined Ellis on the all-tournament team.

Freshman forward Cliff Alexander had eight boards, four blocks and six points. Wayne Selden Jr., who went 0-for-10 from the field on a day KU hit 37 percent of its shots, went 5-of-6 from the line and had five rebounds. Freshman Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, who hit a big three right before halftime to cut a four-point deficit to one, also had four boards to go with his three treys.

“I think we made some athletic plays in transition when they had us beat, contesting or altering or tipping the ball in transition above the rim,” Self said. “The biggest thing I liked was that I thought we fouled a couple times late in the clock, but I thought we defended the entire shot clock and rebounded the ball. I’m not going to say it was a great defensive performance by any stretch, but I thought we played the scouting report pretty well.”

KU used a Landen Lucas stickback, a three from Mykhailiuk, free throw from Ellis and strong basket and ensuing foul shot by Alexander in a 9-4 run to take a 54-46 lead with 7:33 left.

Things got tense when Travis Trice (14 points,

Mason grabbed the board with :48 to play and KU still up three.

Self called a timeout at :32 — during which he elected to keep Jamari Traylor in the game despite the fact he had heard MSU coach Tom Izzo bark out orders to foul the 63.6 percent freethrow shooter. Traylor was fouled and calmly hit a pair of charities to boost the lead to 61-56 at :30.7.

Asked if he felt pressure, Traylor, who had an abysmal semifinal against Tennessee, said: “No, because in the timeout, coach was going to sub Brannen (Greene) in for me. He was like, ‘Brannen get in.’ He was like, ‘You know what? Mari stay in. You are going to make the free throws.

You are going to knock ’em down.’ I’m happy he trusted me, and I’m glad I came through.”

Self explained: “I almost subbed for him, then I said, ‘No, you’re going to make ’em.’ They really did a good job denying Frank the ball, so Mari was a fresh release (to get ball after timeout).

They played it exactly the way Tom told them to play, I’m sure. Then Mari stepped up and made ’em.”

KU played intense defense the rest of the way.

MSU failed even to come close to scoring in the final half minute.

“I’ll be honest, I thought we guarded them pretty well,” Self said.

“I thought they guarded us pretty well. When you play Michigan State, they make you play up over the top the majority of the time. You are not going to get a lot of easy baskets (KU was 3-for-14 from three). If somebody shoots 45 percent against one of Tom’s teams, they’ve really shot the ball well. We missed some open looks.

Freshman ‘Svi’ showing improvement

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kissimmee, Fla. — Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk let fly from beyond the arc just before the halftime buzzer of Kansas University’s 61-56 Orlando Classic championship victory over Michigan State in HP Fieldhouse.

“I didn’t think I would make it. I thought the ball was a little bit left from the rim. It was (a) lucky shot,” the 6-foot-8 freshman from Ukraine said of the clutch bucket that sliced a four-point deficit to 36-35.

“It was the greatest shot, great shot,” he added, obviously not mean-

ing to brag but merely search for the right words as he continues to attempt to master the English language.

He finished with three three-pointers in six tries after entering the game just 4-for-18.

“I’m trying to keep shooting because it’s one of my best weapons on the court,” said Mykhailiuk, whose three-pointer stretched a 47-44 lead to six points with 10:21 left. “I try to get better (by) practicing. I go shoot by myself. I felt better (today). I was 3-of-6, so it was good.”

His teammates were 0-of-8 from three.

“He’s been reliable. He hasn’t shot the ball well,”

KU coach Bill Self said of Mykhailiuk. “He can really shoot the ball, these guys can tell you. We have to have somebody step up and make some shots. He was 3-for-6 today. That’s the only three we made from the perimeter all day. He has to be a guy who continues to look for his shot.

“He’s really become a good defender, sound. He understands what we are trying to do for the most part,” Self added. “He’s a pretty good passer and should be a high school junior (aged 17). He’s in that phase … a lot has been thrown at him in a short period of time. He obviously has a bright future.”

Mykhailiuk was part of a funny moment at the tourney. Before the first game, during introduction of the starters, there was a long pause when the P.A. announcer saw Mykhailiuk’s name placed in front of him.

“I was sitting ready to come in. Tyler (Self, sophomore guard) said, ‘Let’s go. They will not pronounce your name,’” Mykhailiuk said, smiling.

He charged onto the court, the announcer eventually giving the pronunciation a shot.

Svi said he’s not surprised he has started four of six games as a mere freshman.

“I didn’t know. I was

hoping for this. I hoped so,” he said.

He also was asked Sunday if it’s true he had offers to turn pro last summer — to play for a European team instead of coming to KU. “I mean, not a lot (of pressure to turn pro), but enough,” he said. “I was talking to my family and coach. We decided to go to college. I like it more than Europe.”

Mykhailiuk’s teammates were happy to see three of his treys fall.

“He’s a big-time shooter,” junior Jamari Traylor said. “He’s going to step up and make plays. You are not going to make all of them. Be confident.

Keep shooting. It’ll fall.

“He’s automatic in practice. Every time he shoots it, I think it’s going in. He hasn’t gotten on that roll he usually gets on. He stepped up today and made some big shots, especially at the end of the first half.”

Self, by the way, discussed how he became familiar with Mykhailiuk as a recruit. At last year’s Final Four, a friend told him he knew the best collegeaged player in Europe.

“A lot of people told me he’s the best European shooter. He’s going to be real good. We get him for two (seasons), which is good,” Self said.

After two seasons, he’ll be eligible for the NBA Draft.

NOTEBOOK Kansas University’s Perry Ellis was named MVP of the Orlando Classic. He was joined on the all-tournament team by teammate Frank Mason III, Marquette’s Matt Carlino and Michigan State’s Travis Trice and Denzel Valentine.

He showed flashes of being a player who would win the pointguard job as a freshman, but has played far more consistently this season and does not have an upperclassmen to whom to defer.

“He’s a lot more aggressive,” teammate Jamari Traylor said, comparing Mason to his freshman season. “He’s an alpha dog at the point.

He’s controlling the game for us, and he’s also getting on the glass for us. ... He’s really, really athletic.”

A sub-6-foot, athletic alpha dog playing much more under control as a sophomore than as a freshman. Sounds a little like Sherron Collins.

Plays a little like him as well.

Swish KU’s Jamari Traylor bounced back from two sub-par showings at the Orlando Classic by scoring six points and grabbing a rebound in 15 minutes. He cashed two free throws with 30 seconds left to give KU a two-possession lead at 61-56.

“I’ve been having rough games and everything, but I just wanted to let the game come to me and do what I do,” Traylor said.

“I’m tough on myself when I make mistakes because I know I’m better than that,” added Traylor, who appeared frustrated after getting trapped and having to call timeout late in the semifinal win over Tennessee. He also was upset at himself for bobbling an easy pass on the wing for a turnover that game.

“Coach (Bill) Self put a lot of trust in me by putting me on the floor. I’m tough on myself, but I always think, ‘Next play.’ I didn’t need anything (positive to happen Sunday), but I wanted to make something happen.”

“Mari is emotional.

tal illness don’t try to kill themselves, but it does put you at a higher risk: Nine out of 10 people who die by suicide have a mental illness at the time of their death.

Suicide attempts are clear signs of distress, and you should consult a mental health professional as soon as possible. Since your family has a history of attempts, it is especially important that you all stay on top of your mental health by regu-

Saddle up for ‘Country Christmas’ Taped last month in front of a live audience in Nashville, “CMA Country Christmas” (7 p.m., ABC) showcases some of the top talent in country music. The audience was encouraged to donate toys for children in the Music City area as well.

The show features Alan Jackson, Brett Eldredge, Sara Evans, Lucy Hale, Hunter Hayes, Little Big Town, Idina Menzel, Jennifer Nettles, LeAnn Rimes, Michael W. Smith and Carrie Underwood.

As audiences for cable series get ever smaller, they also grow more defined. There’s a market, even a show, for every niche — even those with a taste for the truly lurid or perverse. ‘‘My Strange Criminal Addiction” (9 p.m., ID) profiles people with irrational obsessions that drive them to criminal behavior. They’re disturbed people who some might dismiss as just plain creeps.

One woman loves collecting angels to decorate her home.

There’s nothing particularly wrong with that — except she prefers to steal her angels from the gravesites of strangers. This has led to her arrest and the removal of 150 items from her home. Another man showcased here can’t seem to help pressing up against women in crowded subway cars, a fetish called “frotteurism” that has gotten him arrested 53 times. The oddest subject of this voyeuristic showcase confesses to a proclivity that I don’t even want to discuss in a family newspaper.

Apparently, it’s part of his quest for a fountain of youth.

Help yourself!

Speaking of lurid, the completely over-the-top Southern Gothic spoof “The Heart, She Holler” continues on “Adult Swim” (11:30 a.m., Cartoon Network). Scott Adsit (”30 Rock”) joins the cast, which already includes Patton Oswalt, Amy Sedaris and Heather Lawless.

Tonight’s other highlights O Singer Elmo Shropshire narrates the 2001 animated take on his holiday novelty song “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” (7 p.m., CW).

O Popular R&B singers reunite to save their favorite concert venue in the 2014 bauble “An En Vogue Christmas” (7 p.m., Lifetime), a musical special wrapped inside a holiday movie.

BIRTHDAYS Actor-director Woody Allen is 79. Actress-singer Bette Midler is 69. Singer Gilbert O’Sullivan is 68. Actor Treat Williams is 63. Actress-model Carol Alt is 54. Actress-comedian Sarah Silverman is 44. Singer Sarah Masen is 39. Singer Janelle Monae is 29.

Dear Annie: My husband and I grew up in the Midwest. We moved to Arizona 25 years ago to get out of the cold and snowy winters and hot, sticky summers. We live in a beautiful town.

My pet peeve is that family never comes to visit. They expect us to do all of the traveling in order to see them.

Meanwhile, they go on lovely vacations elsewhere and tell us they have limited vacation time and can’t get to us.

Well, so do we.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Dec. 1: This year, others see you as a ball of fire. You are a natural risk taker, yet your instincts keep you from veering too far off the beaten path. If you are single, you are likely to meet someone of interest in the next year. If you are attached, your significant other could be taken aback by your spontaneity.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Avoid a power play at all costs. A knee-jerk reaction could surprise you. Tonight: Beam in what you want.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ You could be surprised by how people respond when they are alone with you.

Tonight: Find out the whole story.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++++ Your efforts might not be appreciated by a close friend, and you could feel hurt as a result. Tonight: Where your friends are.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++ You will shoulder more than your share of responsibilities. You might feel overworked or overtired as a result. Tonight: Till the wee hours.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ You’ll be more than willing to break out of the box.

Tap into your creativity when the unexpected occurs. Tonight: Act like there is no tomorrow.

I can count on one hand the number of times we have had visitors, and every time it has been for a major event. To our families: Please come visit. You can stay with us, no hotel room needed. We live in a beautiful area.

Planes go both ways.

Why should we do all the traveling? — Getting It Off My Chest Dear Getting: People who move away from their hometown often find that they are expected to return for visits more often, simply because it is “home.”

For those same relatives to visit you, it requires planning an individual vacation. We agree that it is unfair, but it’s unlikely to change.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ++++ A partner could become quite controlling in his or her need to keep everything running as smoothly as possible. Tonight: Go with a fun surprise.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ Defer to others, with the knowledge that they might be more invested in the outcome than you are. Tonight: With a favorite person.

Tonight: Include some exercise.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ++++ You might decide not to share too many of your thoughts or feelings. Avoid a conflict about funds. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 1) +++ Detach from a situation before trying to figure it out.

Emphasize security. Tonight: Head home.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ++++ You might find yourself in a position where you’ll be able to change today’s plans. Tonight: Go with impulsiveness.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ++++ You could be pushing your limits with a boss, as you might not be interested in hearing any more excuses. Tonight: Run errands first.
