Library project moves forward City gets look at updated designs

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Let’s get ready to build.

Lawrence city commissioners on Tuesday saw the latest designs for a $19 million expansion of the Lawrence Public Library and put the project on track to begin construction by midNovember.

“We really wanted to make this a signature public building,” said City Commissioner Aron Cromwell.

“All the elements really have come CITY COMMISSION to play here.

It will have a public-square feeling to it.”

The design for the library, though, looks different than when it was unveiled by library leaders last year. The building still uses large amounts of terra-cotta stone, but the new design uses more glass at the corners of the building and along Vermont Street.

“I think it is a design that is very open,” said Sean Zaudke, an architect with Lawrence-based Gould Evans. “We want a design that explains how the library

The main way it does so is by letting the community see into the library. The new design put a particular emphasis on making the youth and teen rooms of the library on public display by making them visible from Vermont Street.

The inside of the building also will include fewer walls and more wide-open

spaces, Zaudke said. Several reading rooms will be on the perimeter of the building, with larger, more bustling rooms near the building’s main entrance at the southeast corner of the building. Smaller, individual reading rooms will be on the west and north sides of the building.

City commissioners also got their most detailed look yet at the parking garage

design. Plans still call for a perforated metal skin to cover most of the garage, although glass towers to house stairways and an elevator also will be used.

“We really want to make the interior environment of the garage as open and light-filled and ventilated as possible,” Zaudke said.

University looking to fill 64 new faculty positions

By Matt Erickson merickson@ljworld.com

For the first time since the mid-2000s, Kansas University is embarking on a widescale effort to fill new faculty positions.

As proclaimed in a fullpage ad in The Chronicle of Higher Education last month, KU is hiring for 64 newly created faculty spots.

The jobs will be broken down into three categories, KU officials said:

12 “Foundation Professor” positions: spots designated for high-profile, established faculty members drawn from other institutions, to be funded by a $3 million annual award from the state with some donations through;

‘Call of the Wild’ by Jack London Artist: Heather Martin.

Reason For Banning: In 1929, Italy and Yugoslavia banned “Call of the Wild” for being “too radical.”

London’s works were also burned by the Nazi Party in 1933 because he had an infamous reputation for being an outspoken supporter of Socialism.

Excerpt from artist’s statement: This book is often misclassified as a children’s book because the main character, Buck, is a dog. “Call of the Wild” visits many mature concepts and has vivid scenes of violence and cruelty that may not be suitable for children.

Kansas City-based Hallmark Cards is closing its Topeka manufacturing facility and will transfer all of its greeting card and envelope production to Lawrence’s Hallmark plant, the company announced Tuesday.

The reorganization also means that Hallmark will move its specialty operations of production of ribbons, bows and stickers, from Lawrence to Leavenworth.

“We have about 500 associates in the Topeka facility, and when we are done with this consolidation, some of those associates will move to the Lawrence plant and some of those associates at Lawrence will move to our Leavenworth facility,” said Pete Burney, senior vice president for supply chain and business enablement.

When the reorganization is completed, Hallmark will have reduced its 1,300 workers at plants in Lawrence, Topeka and Leavenworth to 1,000, and that workforce will Please see HALLMARK, page 2A

KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little said the current effort would aim to return the faculty to the size it reached in the previous decade.

30 new jobs in the expanding School of Engineering, which will make use of increased tuition dollars from the growing student population;

And 22 other positions, to be paid for with savings from the university’s ongoing Changing for Excellence efficiency measures.

The hiring campaign is a first during the tenure of Chancellor Bernadette Gray-

Little. Because of budget cutbacks, the university’s faculty size decreased in the years shortly after she took office in 2009.

“There was a year or two where we did very little hiring of new faculty,” GrayLittle said.

She said the current effort would aim to return the faculty to the size it reached in the previous decade and then continue to grow.

Provost Jeff Vitter said the effort would be the biggest instance of faculty growth at KU since the early- to mid2000s, when tuition dollars were rolling in as the university’s enrollment grew.

The university is spreading the word about its openings with an advertising campaign in print and online venues, KU spokesman Jack Martin said, including the full-page Chronicle ad

DEATHS Journal-World obituary policy: For information about running obituaries, call 8327151. Obituaries run as submitted by funeral homes or the families of the deceased.

DR. JOANNE ANDERSON RAMBERG RN PHD Joanne Anderson Ramberg was born in Chicago on March 1, 1926, to Martin Anderson and Gudrun Lokvam Anderson, and died on October 1, 2012, after a prolonged illness. She was surrounded by her family from whom she derived a great sense of caring and involvement in life. Dr. Ramberg worked with the noted Kansas psychiatrist Karl Menninger to craft the state’s first licensed mental health care program. Ramberg was on the staff at Washburn University, where she was at one time head of the mental health program in the Department of Nursing and, up to 2010, Program Coordinator for the Division of Continuing Education. In addition, she enjoyed lecturing on ornithology at WU, drawing from her lifelong experience in studying birds, including a stint as President of the Topeka Audubon Society. She maintained a profound satisfaction in achieving a long and happy life, getting enjoyment from her work and from the accomplishments of her six children, her sister Dorothy Anderson-Metzel of Evanston, Illinois, and from the congregation of grandchildren and great grandchildren.

In 1943, Joanne responded to the poster of Uncle Sam, who pointed at her and declared: “I Want YOU” for the Army Cadet Nursing Corps. She interrupted a promising academic course at Northwestern University to become a nurse in Minneapolis. There she met handsome Navy pilot Dave Ramberg who was studying journalism at the University of Minnesota.

They married and soon began a family. After a few years in Minneapolis and Owatonna, MN, the family moved south to Hannibal, MO, where the last two of the six children were born. It was in Hannibal that the family grew in experience, friendship, creativity and appreciation of nature.

After a short stint in Visalia, CA the family moved to Topeka, KS where Joanne lived for 45 of the last 50 years of her life. She moved to Lawrence at the urging of her children who reside there.

Joanne was preceded in death by her ex-husband David F. Ramberg, and her first-born son David James (Jim) Ramberg, of Topeka, an Outdoor Sports columnist for the CapitalJournal. She maintained a close relationship with James Rawlings of Panama City, FL. Her other children and their spouses are Linda and Ron Joler, Steven Ramberg and Margaret Rose, Karl Ramberg, Laura Ramberg and Ed Scheurich, (all of Lawrence, Kansas), and Erik Ramberg and Karen Byrum of Batavia, IL. Joanne was a tireless homemaker and nursing professional at each of the towns she called home. At

Burney said the consolidation was needed to better manage operating costs.

He said greeting card sales have decreased from five billion cards sold annually to four billion over the last 10 years, but he said the industry is still sound.

Greg Williams, president and CEO of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said he felt for the impact the decision would have on Topeka, but he said Tuesday’s news puts Hallmark in a position to be a major employer in the area for many years.

— Greg Williams, president and CEO of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce eastern Kansas,” Williams said. “Consolidations are tough, but they are made for good reasons. There are real signs that Hallmark is very committed to being in Lawrence for a very long time.”

When the consolidation is complete, the Lawrence plant will be Hallmark’s only U.S. facility making greeting cards and envelopes. The Lawrence plant already made about twothirds of the company’s U.S. greeting cards, with the other third produced in Topeka.

Hallmark officials said excess capacity at the three northeastern Kansas plants led to the decision to close the Topeka facility. Burney also said costs

each stop she would make progress on the college degree that she gave up for the war effort, finally getting a B.A. at Washburn University about the same time that her kids were going to college at KU. Not content with this, she persevered in a Masters program at KU and finally obtained a PhD from there at age 59 in Human Development and Family Life. She proudly wore the mantle of “Doctor Jo,” and had a long and successful career in Topeka in both mental health and nursing education. She was a consultant for group homes, and was instrumental in the mental health and nursing education programs at Washburn University.

Throughout her 86 years, she derived great enjoyment from watching and studying birds.

During her 40 years in rural Topeka, she would feed the local birds as well as the squirrels, raccoons, opossums, and deer that inevitably found an easy meal in her backyard.

Her caring spirit and boundless energy found her the focus of large family holiday gatherings for decades. She cared for those in need, and for the last five years of her son Jim’s life, she was a constant comfort. Her stay at Pioneer Ridge and its Topeka affiliate Lexington Park was characterized by many friends, a cozy space full of bird books and her bird carvings as well as various art pieces by her children.

During the last month of her decline, she had the opportunity to reflect on her life and reminisce about her childhood in Chicago during the depression era. Just before she took to her bed for the final days of her struggle with her illness, she confided that, “It’s been a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful experience, but I’m kind of glad it’s over.” Her wishes were for immediate cremation.

There will be a celebration of her life at a time in the near future, and in a place where it might be likely to hear the distant calls of the birds she loved, and with the people she loved and who knew and loved her. She would appreciate that those who care for the same things in life that she did contribute generously to the organization of their choice such as Audubon Society, or Nature Conservancy.

Man pleads guilty in explosives case

Kunkle is scheduled for sentencing Nov. 20.

A 20-year-old Lawrence man pleaded guilty Thursday to attempted criminal use of explosives stemming from a July incident in Lawrence.

Dakota Jackson Kunkle was arrested July 7 after officers were sent to an apartment in the 700 block of West 25th Street. Police said officers later determined residents there had been making homemade explosives involving firework ignition powder.

Kunkle had originally been charged with two counts of criminal use of an explosive.

Another man, Adam B. Dale, 20, of Lawrence, had also been arrested and charged in the case, but those charges were dropped.

Traffic delays likely on 23rd St. today

isn’t expected to begin until February. April 2014 is the tentative completion date for the project.

Commissioners on Tuesday left their options open regarding how large the parking garage will be.

The new garage will include at least 250 spaces — up from the 125 spaces currently provided in the library’s surface parking lot. Commissioners also are considering adding an additional level that would provide another 72 parking spaces but are still considering ways to pay for the project. The bids for the parking garage will include amounts

both with and without the extra level.

In other news, commissioners:

Balked at the idea of allowing $695,000 in land acquisition costs to be reimbursed through a tax increment financing district for a proposed hotel development at Ninth and New Hampshire streets.

The development group, led by Lawrence businessmen Doug Compton and Mike Treanor, had sought to have the costs to purchase the land added to the list of items eligible for reimbursement through the TIF district.

that promises prospective faculty members the opportunity to “make discoveries that change the world” and cites its membership in the Association of American Universities.

To fill the 12 higherprofile jobs, Vitter said, KU will likely need to seek out prospects rather than waiting for them to apply.

“Typically, you need to target and find people and then entice them to come to campus,” Vitter said.

One way to do that will be to show off the university to scholars coming as part of the its Bold Aspirations Visitors and Lecture Series — visitors who would be “potential great hires,” Vitter said.

The other 52 jobs, at the engineering school and elsewhere, are meant for faculty members with a broader range of experience, Gray-Little said, including some junior faculty starting in their first positions.

The 30 engineering faculty positions are being created to keep pace with the engineering school’s

planned 60 percent expansion in enrollment, Vitter said. The school is opening a new research building this fall and is planning construction on another larger building set to include classroom space, bolstered by state funds intended to help produce more engineers in Kansas.

Tuition from those additional students will help fund the new faculty jobs, Vitter said, and the hope is that growth will inspire more giving to the school, as well.

“It’s a giant circle that is a real win-win for everyone,” Vitter said.

The additional 22 new jobs, allocated to other schools and departments, were made possible by the efficiency measures made through the university’s Changing for Excellence program, Vitter said. Those changes, made with the help of the Huron Consulting Group, have included the reorganizing of the Facilities and Operations office and new vendor agreements.

“We are going through a lot of reorganization so we can do more with less, and use the savings to invest in making this university a better place,” Vitter said. “And a part of that is bringing in faculty

Traffic delays are expected for much of today near the 23rd Street bridge project in eastern Lawrence.

Both the east- and westbound shoofly detours will be reduced to one lane on the bridge project between Haskell and Barker avenues.

Kansas Department of Transportation officials said the lane reductions will begin before the earlymorning rush hour and are expected to last into early evening.

Construction is tentatively scheduled to move onto the new bridge by late October, at which point the shoofly detour roads around the bridge will be removed.

But commissioners said it was too late in the process to bring up the request. A representative of the development group said the hotel project will continue on without the reimbursement.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD were more manageable in Lawrence and Leavenworth. For example, he said, transportation and insurance costs were higher in Topeka. He noted the Hallmark building in Topeka was in a flood plain and that increased insurance costs.

“Hallmark has a long history in Topeka and any action that impacts employees, and in this case a community, is taken only after a thorough evaluation and careful consideration,” Donald Hall Jr., Hallmark’s president and CEO, said in a statement.

“The work we are doing now in three facilities can be accomplished in two. This decision allows us to streamline our operations and improve our cost structure so we can remain competitive in today’s marketplace.”

The approximately 700,000-square-foot Topeka Hallmark plant, located at 240 S.E. Madison, opened in 1966. The company has had a plant in Topeka since 1943. It plans to sell the building.

so that we can provide our students with better experiences and we can be more innovative.”

Among the 97 KU employees who accepted early-retirement buyouts this year are 11 faculty members. Vitter said those early retirements could lead to new faculty jobs through reorganization in the future, but they did not contribute to the group of 64 jobs for which the university is now hiring.

Martin said the university had not set a deadline for filling the positions but has already begun identifying some candidates.

“The quality of these hires is what is most important and attracting top talent can take time,” Martin said.

Gray-Little said the new faculty positions would help the university beef up the quality and the quantity of its research — an important factor in maintaining its AAU membership.

“This is very much related to the question of research stature,” GrayLittle said.

Man pleads guilty in murder scheme

Filling orders and raising funds

By Shaun Hittle

sdhittle@ljworld.com

A 38-year-old Basehor man pleaded guilty Tuesday in federal court to attempting to hire someone to kill his wife, according to a news release issued by the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Missouri.

Lee D. Smith in May contacted, then agreed to pay, a man — identified in court documents as a confidential informant — $1,800 to murder Smith’s wife.

The man COURTS Smith tried to hire for the murder then contacted Kansas City, Mo., police.

At the instructions of police, the informant called Smith and informed him he had carried through with the murder and asked for the money, according to the news release.

Smith cashed a check for $1,600 in preparation to pay the informant. But Smith was called to the Kansas City police, as Smith was told police had news about his wife.

When Smith arrived at the police station, he was arrested.

Smith could face a $250,000 fine and up to 10 years in prison for the crime. A sentencing date has yet to be set.

Democratic legislative leaders on Tuesday said public schools and higher education will suffer $900 million in budget cuts because of Gov. Sam Brownback’s tax cuts.

And their argument got support from a public policy group, the Kansas Economic Progress Council, which released a report that said the Brown- Davis back tax cuts will lead to state spending cuts, a raid on transportation funds and do little to help the economy.

In public statements, Brownback has vowed to protect school funding and what he calls core services, and his office hit back at the Democrats.

“It must be getting near Halloween season with these Democrat scare tactics,” said Sherriene Jones-Sontag, a spokeswoman for Brownback.

Budget CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Leader Paul Davis, DLawrence, and state Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, said they were just doing the math.

Displaying a tax cut projection produced by Hensley legislative researchers, Davis said, “Gov. Brownback can no longer tell people with a straight face that big cuts to their public schools, their universities are not on the way. The cuts are coming and they are coming as a result of the Brownback tax plan that disproportionately benefits the wealthiest of Kansans.”

The projection showed the impact of subtracting the tax cuts from state revenue, while adding 4 percent in annual revenue growth.

Based on the overall reduction in tax revenue, if applied proportionately, public schools would be cut $750 million, and higher education would be cut by $150 million over a four-year period starting next July.

Overall, the Legislature’s research staff projects the tax cuts will create collective budget shortfalls approaching $2.5 billion over the next six years.

The state is decreasing its individual income tax rates for 2013, with the top rate dropping to 4.9 percent from 6.45 percent.

Also, the state will exempt the owners of 191,000 partnerships, sole proprietorships and other businesses from income taxes.

Brownback has said the tax cuts will boost the economy and create jobs and that his administration will propose the necessary adjustments to state spending.

“No amount of inaccurate scare tactics will changes the facts. For the first time in years Kansas is adding jobs. We turned a $500 million deficit into a $500 million ending balance,” Jones-Sontag said.

Democrats have said much of the ending balance at the end of the last

fiscal year was the result of the temporary state sales tax increase that was approved before Brownback was elected.

And the KEPC, a notfor-profit group that includes businesses, trade organizations, chambers of commerce and others, said the tax cuts signed into law by Brownback went too far.

“It is obvious to KEPC and many others, including respected conservative legislators who favored some kind of income tax cut, that there are serious consequences to this legislation. They include likely significant cuts to education and other state services,” the report said.

In addition, some tax credits and programs aimed at helping low-income Kansans were eliminated by the massive tax cutting plan. Davis said the elimination of those provisions was “absolutely reprehensible.”

One of those tax breaks eliminated was the food sales tax rebate, which means Kansas will join Mississippi and Alabama as the only states that levy a tax on food and don’t provide a break on that tax to help low-income residents.

On the jobs front, the KEPC report said Kansas would have to add 550,000 new jobs over a six-year period to make up for the projected revenue shortfall. That would be a 50 percent increase in jobs.

“Kansas would have to grow over 5 and a half times as fast as Texas has been growing to get to a zero ending balance,” the report said.

Related to school funding, Davis and Hensley also criticized Brownback’s formation of a task force that will focus on trying to find efficiencies in school spending.

None of the 10 task force members appointed by Brownback currently works in the education system.

“Our children are simply far too important to bet their futures on a group of individuals with little or no education experience,” Davis said.

Jones-Sontag said the governor wanted finance and budget expertise on the task force.

ing alcohol, it was about taking campaign contributions from powerful special interests and then voting in their interests.

Libertarian Dennis Hawver, an attorney from Ozawkie, got his first chance to appear on stage with Schlingensiepen and Jenkins.

Hawver said to balance the budget he would cut defense spending by as much as 50 percent and “stop these stupid wars.”

The general election is Nov. 6 with early voting starting Oct. 17.

$62K grant to help expand mental health program across the state

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

A Mental Health First Aid course soon will be offered across Kansas thanks to a $62,000 grant from the Tower Mental Health Foundation.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt recently announced the donation that was made to the Association of Community Mental Health Centers of Kansas, which represents 27 licensed community mental health centers.

“This grant will help train first responders, law enforcement, clergy and other interested persons on how to approach and assist someone in a mental health crisis,” Schmidt said.

Lawrence’s Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center was among the first seven community mental health centers in the nation to offer Mental Health First Aid in 2008, and it was the first in Kansas.

Mental Health First Aid is a 12-hour course designed to give members of the public the skills to help someone who is developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. So far, Bert Nash has trained nearly 700 people, including police officers, Kansas University staff and faculty, manufacturers and human resources directors.

Mental Health First Aid

“It really is training that can be used by so many people,” Johnson said.

To sign up to take Mental Health First Aid at Bert Nash or for more information, contact 843-9192 or email talktobert@bertnash.org. The cost is $30.

A class is under way, and the next one will be offered in February after the holidays.

Q:

Will traffic be stopped on Wakarusa Drive for Free State’s Homecoming Parade this week?

A:

Sgt. Trent McKinley, Lawrence police spokesman, provided this answer: “There are no plans for southbound traffic on Wakarusa being stopped during the full course of the parade. Brief intermittent road closures will be necessary to align the parade in the northbound lanes and to pass safely through intersections. Practices of distributing candy to spectators is also being examined, as this is often times the cause of conflicts with motorists, spectators and parade participants.”

Intelligence effort named citizens, not terrorists, report says

By Eileen Sullivan and Matt Apuzzo Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A multibillion-dollar informationsharing program created in the aftermath of 9/11 has improperly collected information about innocent Americans and produced little valuable intelligence on terrorism, a U.S. Senate report concludes. It portrays an effort that ballooned far beyond anyone’s ability to control.

What began as an attempt to put local, state and federal officials in the same room analyzing the same intelligence has instead cost huge amounts of money for data-mining software, flat screen televisions and, in Arizona, two fully equipped Chevrolet Tahoes that are used for commuting, investigators found.

The lengthy, bipartisan report is a scathing evaluation of what the Department of Homeland Security has held up as a crown jewel of its security efforts.

The report underscores a reality of post-9/11 Washington: National security programs tend to grow, never shrink, even when their money and manpower far surpass the actual subject of terrorism. Much of this money went for ordinary local crime-fighting.

Disagreeing with the critical conclusions of the report, Homeland Security says it is outdated, inaccurate and too focused

on information produced by the program, ignoring benefits to local governments from their involvement with federal intelligence officials.

Because of a convoluted grants process set up

by Congress, Homeland Security officials don’t know how much they have spent in their decade-long effort to set up so-called fusion centers in every state. Government estimates range from less than $300 million to $1.4 billion in federal money, plus much more invested by state and local governments. Federal funding is pegged at about 20 percent to 30 percent.

Despite that, Congress is unlikely to pull the plug.

That’s because, whether or not it stops terrorists, the program means politically important money for state and local governments.

A Senate Homeland Security subcommittee reviewed more than 600 unclassified reports over a one-year period and concluded that most had nothing to do with terrorism. The panel’s chairman is Democrat Carl Levin of Michigan, the ranking Republican Tom Coburn of Oklahoma.

“The subcommittee investigation could identify no reporting which uncovered a terrorist threat, nor could it identify a contribution such fusion center reporting made to disrupt an active terrorist plot,” the report said.

BRIEFLY Covert war widening in North Africa WASHINGTON — Small teams of special operations forces arrived at American embassies throughout North Africa in the months before militants launched the fiery attack that killed the U.S. ambassador in Libya. The soldiers’ mission: Set up a network that could quickly strike a terrorist target or rescue a hostage.

But the teams had yet to do much counterterrorism work in Libya, though the White House signed off a year ago on the plan to build the new military task force in the region and the advance teams had been there for six months, according to three U.S. counterterror officials and a former intelligence official.

Pa. judge blocks photo ID law for Election Day

By Marc Levy Associated Press

HARRISBURG, PA. — Pennsylvania voters won’t have to show photo identification to cast ballots on Election Day, a judge said Tuesday in a ruling on the state’s controversial voter ID law that could help President Barack Obama in a presidential battleground state.

Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson delayed Pennsylvania’s voter ID requirement from taking effect this election, saying he wasn’t sure the state had made it possible for voters to easily get IDs Defamation suit filed before Nov. 6.

One civil rights lawyer said the decision cemented the principle that a photo ID law can’t disenfranchise voters. Opponents had said young adults, minorities, the elderly, poor and disabled would find it harder to cast ballots.

“The effect of the decision in Pennsylvania is not just theoretically, can voters get ID, but actually, can they get ID,” said Jon M. Greenbaum, chief counsel of The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. Simpson, a Republican first elected to the bench in 2001, based his decision on guidelines given to him two weeks ago by the state Supreme Court to determine whether the state had made photo IDs easily accessible.

He ruled after listening to two days of testimony about the state’s efforts to ease requirements, as well as accounts of long lines and ill-informed clerks at driver’s license centers.

On Nov. 6, election workers will still be allowed to ask voters for a valid photo ID, but people without it can use a regular voting machine in the polling place and will not have to cast a provisional ballot or prove their identity to election officials afterward, the judge ruled.

The law could still take full effect next year, although Simpson could also decide to issue a permanent injunction.

EDITORIALS

On Main Street It’s hard to understand the decision to dump a program that supported both business and rural communities in Kansas.

T

he Kansas Main Street program is dead, but its website lives on.

On that website, the program is lauded for more than 25 years of service providing training, consultation, business enhancement strategies and financial incentives to Kansas communities. It recognizes the pivotal role of a city’s central business district, which not only provides up to 30 percent of a town’s jobs and 40 percent of its tax base, but serves as the heart of the community. The reason the Main Street program works better than many other revitalization programs, it says, is because it deals with “the full spectrum of interrelated issues that affect traditional commercial districts.”

Unfortunately, a new message at the top of the Kansas Main Street home page announces that the 2012 state conference scheduled for later this month in Emporia has been canceled. There is no notice of the broader decision of the Kansas Department of Commerce to lay off 18 people and discontinue the Main Street program as part of its departmental restructuring.

The decision brings an end to a program that reportedly provided significant support to 25 mid-sized Kansas communities. Marci Penner, director of the Kansas Sampler Foundation, is familiar with all of those towns and told the Hays Daily News that when she traveled the state she usually can tell which ones are affiliated with Main Street just by the attractiveness and vitality of their downtowns. The program, she said, provided practical training and other support to downtown business districts.

One of the programs that will be missed the most, according to news reports, is “Incentives Without Walls,” which supplied zero-interest loans to help businesses with specific projects. The money was matched by local communities and, when the loan was repaid, the funding was used to make loans to other cities.

Officials in the state’s Main Street communities were stunned by the Commerce announcement, which came less than a month before their annual conference and with about three hours notice, rather than the usual 60 days. Apparently, as seems to be the custom with the Brownback administration, the Main Street decision was made without consulting with any of the local communities involved and with little planning for how Main Street programs might be maintained.

In making the announcement last month, Commerce Secretary Pat George said, “I believe we can achieve our goal of helping revitalize downtown areas using other resources available … ,” but no details about those plans have been made public. Asked specifically about the Incentives Without Walls program, Commerce officials said the department is looking at options to replace the program but couldn’t comment on the details.

The governor has spoken repeatedly about his desire to support both business and rural communities in Kansas. The Kansas Main Street program seemed to fill both of those needs. It’s hard to understand why it has been tossed out.

Nation hesitant to give up on Obama WASHINGTON — In baseball, a game without a clock, each player on a team that is behind by a bunch of runs is advised to “stay within yourself.” That baseball lingo means: Do not try to do too much. Instead, get ‘em on, get ‘em over, get ‘em in. There are no five-run home runs. Small, incremental gains matter because the game goes on until someone makes the 27th out. Until then, there is hope.

Unfortunately for Mitt Romney, presidential politics is, like football, a game with a clock, one with just five weeks of ticks remaining. In football, a team behind by lots of points late in the game must take gambles. Romney is behind — in the

George Will

“

Instead, the nation, which is generally reluctant to declare a president a failure … seems especially reluctant not to give up on the first African-American president.” important swing states, with the national electorate regarding who would best handle the economy and health care, and in national measures of favorable voter perceptions. So on Wednesday night it might be risky for Romney not to take risks.

But what can he do? He might add to his menu of policies by embracing, say, the idea of breaking up the largest banks, a sound policy that would subvert the caricature of him as rapacious capitalism embodied. But debates are not good venues for explaining ... well, anything, actually, but especially not new initiatives. And October is a time for summations to the jury, not new submissions of evidence.

Worse, Romney and his advisers must be bewildered by this fact: In October 2011 they would have been serenely confident of victory if they had been told that 12 months later the following would be true.

That President Obama would be waist deep in muddy and contradictory descriptions and explanations of the terrorist (he now concedes) attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Libya.

That data just released for August 2012 showed that real disposable income had again declined. That Obama would ac-

tually celebrate the fact that for the first month since he took office there were more U.S. jobs than when he took office. That the most recent figures show a 13.2 percent decline in durable goods orders. That nearly 25 percent — the highest in three decades — of Americans between 25 and 55 are unemployed.

That the second-quarter growth rate was adjusted down from an anemic 1.7 percent to the stall speed of 1.3 percent.

And regarding the Investor in Chief, that his Tesla Motors would be troubled. The California firm has received a $465 million loan from the world’s most incompetent venture capital fund, the U.S. Department of Energy — source of Solyndra’s $535 million — to make electric cars for the affluent. The Model S, unlike Tesla’s $109,000 Roadster, is supposed to sell for between $50,000 and $98,000 — after the $7,500 federal tax credit. But Tesla has just received a waiver on the terms of its DOE loan.

Tesla joins California-based Fisker, another floundering would-be maker of high-end rides for rich people, which has received a $529 million DOE loan.

Obama’s administration is in shambles, yet he is prospering politically. This may not, however, entirely be evidence of the irrationality of the electorate. Something more benign may be at work.

A significant date in the nation’s civil rights progress involved an AfricanAmerican baseball player named Robinson, but not Jackie. The date was Oct.

3, 1974, when Frank Robinson, one the greatest players in history, was hired by the Cleveland Indians as the major leagues’ first black manager. But an even more important milestone of progress occurred June 19, 1977, when the Indians fired him. That was colorblind equality.

Managers get fired all the time. The fact that the Indians felt free to fire Robinson — who went on to have a distinguished career managing four other teams — showed that another racial barrier had fallen: Henceforth, AfricanAmericans, too, could enjoy the Godgiven right to be scapegoats for impatient team owners or incompetent team executives.

Perhaps a pleasant paradox defines this political season: That Obama is African-American may be important, but in a way quite unlike that darkly suggested by, for example, MSNBC’s excitable boys and girls who, with their (at most) one-track minds and exquisitely sensitive olfactory receptors, sniff racism in any criticism of their pin-up.

Instead, the nation, which is generally reluctant to declare a president a failure — thereby admitting that it made a mistake choosing him — seems especially reluctant not to give up on the first African-American president. If so, the 2012 election speaks well of the nation’s heart, if not its head.

Outdated attitudes revealed “Ladylike?”

It is a telling choice of word.

Hearing it used unironically, as would-be Missouri senator Todd Akin did last week, one almost feels as if Amelia Earhart never flew a plane and Sally Ride never rode a space shuttle. As if Madame C.J. Walker never made millions and Meg Whitman never made CEO. As if Lisa Leslie never dunked, Pat Benatar never rocked, Oprah Winfrey never reigned, Hillary Clinton never ran.

But that is, indeed, what the man said. In an interview last week, he complained that his opponent, Sen. Claire McCaskill, was very aggressive in debating him, unlike her 2006 race, when she was “much more ladylike.”

Akin, last heard revealing the existence of a previously unknown mechanism in the female body that shuts down contraception in the event of “legitimate rape,” might want to pen himself a reminder to not talk about women again, ever.

This latest gaffe is somewhat reminiscent of when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was quoted as saying candidate Barack Obama had the ability to switch off and on his “Negro dialect.” While the observation was true enough, we were still left to grapple that bizarre choice of word. There has not been a “Negro” in this country since 1969, the year Reid turned 30. How is it he failed, for 40 years, to get the memo?

One wonders the same about Akin. The issue is not dated terminology, per se, but rather, the suspicion that it reflects a dated worldview — particularly with Akin, given his belief in a rape-resistant uterus.

There is, frankly, a point at which being ‘old-fashioned’ becomes being stubborn, denying unwelcome, unsettling and self-evident change.”

But though he is the latest, he is hardly the only man who has sought recently to police the decorum of female lawmakers. Consider the 2011 email Rep. Allen West sent Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz telling her, “you are not a lady” and “shall not be accorded due respect from me.” And then there’s then-Sen. Arlen Specter’s 2010 shot at Rep. Michele Bachmann during a radio interview: “I’ll treat you like a lady. So act like one.”

One struggles to imagine a male lawmaker being chided to behave in a gentlemanly fashion. The person doing the chiding would be laughed into oblivion and deservedly so — the complaint belongs to the era of handlebar moustaches and high-wheeled bikes.

This is not to say that a man ought not strive to behave in ways that reflect class, refinement and manners. He should. A woman should, too. In a nation so

rude that a member of Congress hectors the president during a televised speech, many of us could stand to act as if we’d had the benefit of home training.

But this is not about that. It is, rather, about an arrogant, condescending and paternalistic mindset that says a woman cannot be tough, aggressive, competitive, smart or feisty, that if she embodies those traits, so prized in men, she does so at the cost of her own femininity.

In this construction, being a “lady” has nothing to do with good home training, and everything to do with being properly deferential and submissive in the presence of testosterone. And yes, you may just want to chalk all this up to a difference of values, to say that Akin, West and Specter are just old-fashioned guys having trouble finding their way in a newfangled world.

But to do that is give them a pass they do not deserve.

It is to tell a little girl she must truncate the sprawl and adventure of her personality, prune it back until it fits into a small, dainty box marked “ladylike.”

That would be a tragedy.

And a betrayal.

There is, frankly, a point at which being “old-fashioned” becomes being stubborn, denying unwelcome, unsettling and self-evident change.

These fellows are well past that point and our message to them ought to be simply this: If you want to govern in this century, try living in it first.

Night lights To the editor: I have an issue regarding the way people obey the traffic lights at night — or lack thereof. Late at night (around 11 p.m.) most stoplights in town will flash. If lights flash red, drivers must stop then proceed with caution. If they flash yellow, drivers must slow down and proceed with caution. It’s the law.

I’ve seen countless drivers speed on through the yellow and even red flashing lights at night as if it’s a regular daytime green light. It’s dangerous. If everyone sped through those lights, there would be accidents everywhere.

Drivers, please obey the traffic laws. If you see someone slow down or stop at an intersection with flashing stoplights, get a clue and slow down yourself. Keep everyone safe at night.

Above, beyond To the editor: About a month ago, after taking my children to the library, I loaded all five of them into the van, folded up the stroller, and headed for home.

Two hours later, I received a call from a woman named Tanya at the Lawrence Parking Department telling me she had found my wallet. That is when I remembered my wallet had been on top of the stroller and must have fallen on the ground when I folded it up. Tanya had not only found my wallet with everything still inside, but also offered to return it to my house. I am forever grateful. Thank you again Tanya, you went above and beyond.

Lots o’ shots

Weis, KU face huge mismatch at KSU

Kansas State football coach Bill Snyder, when pressed Monday, revealed more than he usually does during the weekly Big 12 conference call.

Much to his doctor’s chagrin, Snyder said, he eats just one meal a day. It’s very late at night, and sometimes it’s at Taco Bell. You could almost hear Snyder biting his tongue. Clearly, he wished he hadn’t given the opposition so much with which to work.

No matter. Kansas University coach Charlie Weis didn’t send a tape of Snyder’s revelations to scientists so that they could study how greasy food might influence play-calling. Secrecy isn’t the issue in Saturday’s Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo mismatch of a Big 12 game.

Is Ohio State playing video games?

By Teddy Greenstein Chicago Tribune

The topic that made some coaches squirm on Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Big Ten conference call could be summarized as: Sex, Lies and Videotape.

Minus the sex and possibly the lies.

Michigan State defensive co-

ordinator Pat Narduzzi raised the issue after the Spartansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 1716 loss to Ohio State, telling the Detroit Free Press that the film the Buckeyes provided arrived late in the week (Thursday) and was doctored.

ORLANDO MAGIC HEAD COACH JACQUE VAUGHN WALKS ACROSS THE COURT during training-camp practice. Vaughn, a former Kansas University standout, held his first practice as the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head coach Tuesday in Orlando, Fla.

Vaughn â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;efficientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at practice ORLANDO, FLA. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing that the Orlando Magic players learned during their first preseason practice, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that new coach Jacque Vaughn will run his workouts efficiently.

The Magic wrapped up their initial, two-hour scheduled workout in 90 minutes Tuesday.

They took one water break and were moved in and out of drills by assistant coaches with little lag time.

Afterwards, the new man in charge said it went exactly how he drew it up. So much so that it made Vaughn think of something former Utah Jazz teammate John Stockton used to say about practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stockton used to tell me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Work me hard, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work me long. Work me long, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work me hard. You have to pick one.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I never forgot that,â&#x20AC;?

Vaughn said.

Also on his mind was how Roy Williams, his former college coach at Kansas, ran his daily show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was the most efficient coach Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been around,â&#x20AC;?

Vaughn said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His practice plans were pretty much to the minute and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve taken that. It was a good session as far as efficiency today.â&#x20AC;?

The reasoning behind Vaughnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early practice plans isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all based on drawing from his mentors, though.

A bigger one is simply necessity.

The Magic are down three bodies right now as they begin the task of jelling together a team of seven returners and seven fresh faces.

Rookie Maurice Harkless, a first-round draft pick by Philadelphia who was acquired in the Dwight Howard trade, had offseason surgery for a sports hernia.

Also, backup point guard Ish Smith is recovering from surgery for a torn labrum in his shoulder. And forward Al Harrington, another trade acquisition, is coming off knee surgery, Both Smith and Harkless are out until at least mid-November.

Harrington is expected to miss at least part of camp.

Still, a pair of the Magicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s veterans said they liked what they saw overall out of the new-look Magic in their first true time together on the court.

Point guard Jameer Nelson said Vaughn â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a former point guard himself â&#x20AC;&#x201D; stressed that he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be a coach that dictated every single play call.

That was refreshing to Nelson, who has thrived best when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s able to create on the fly while on the court.

EUROPEAN RYDER CUP CAPTAIN JOSE MARIA OLAZABAL SPEAKS at a news conference Tuesday in London.

Olazabal leaving Ryder Cup â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;tortureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; behind LONDON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Describing the role as â&#x20AC;&#x153;tortureâ&#x20AC;? at times, victorious Ryder Cup captain Jose Maria Olazabal ruled out the possibility of staying on for the 2014 competition at Gleneagles.

The Spaniard returned to Europe on Monday night, cradling the gleaming golden trophy and still reveling in Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stirring rally over the United States at Medinah on Sunday.

Spainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s King Juan Carlos and tennis star Rafael Nadal were among those who sent Olazabal messages of congratulations after the 141â &#x201E;2-131â &#x201E;2 victory that kept the cup in European hands.

But after seven matches as a player â&#x20AC;&#x201D; during which he teamed up so effectively with the late Seve Ballesteros â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and now another as a winning captain, he has come to the end of his 25-year Ryder Cup career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can assure you it will be a no, period,â&#x20AC;? Olazabal said Tuesday, when asked if he would stay on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of work ... it takes a lot out of you for a stretch of time. It is difficult. In a way, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s torture.â&#x20AC;?

Safeco Field shrinking SEATTLE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The fences at Safeco Field are coming in.

The Seattle Mariners announced plans Tuesday to move in the outfield fences at their ballpark for the 2013 season after years of debate on the impact that having one of the more spacious outfields in baseball was having on their offense.

The biggest change will come in the leftcenter field alley, where the fence will move in as much as 17 feet. The left-center power alley is currently 390 feet, but will be at 378 feet next season. From there, instead of a rounded fence, the wall will move straight out to its deepest point at 405 feet, four feet shorter than currently. The straighter line of the fence will lead to the 17-foot change.

Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik said many factors were taken into account when determining whether changes to the field would be made, including Seattleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s notoriously chilly April and May.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our goal was to create an environment that is fair for both hitters and pitchers,â&#x20AC;? Zduriencik said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Considering the current field dimensions as well as the climate in and around Safeco Field, we feel this will be accomplished with this new layout.â&#x20AC;?

Gathright suspended 50 games NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Former major-league outfielder Joey Gathright has been suspended 50 games after testing positive for an amphetamine.

The commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office issued the penalty Tuesday for violating the minor-league drug program. It will take effect if the free agent signs with another big-league organization.

The 31-year-old Gathright played seven seasons with Tampa Bay, Kansas City, the Chicago Cubs and Boston. He was in the majors with the Red Sox last year.

Gathright played this year for Triple-A Louisville in the Cincinnati system and with Bridgeport in the independent Atlantic League. He struck out leading off the game against Roger Clemens in late August during the seven-time Cy Young Award winnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comeback at age 50.

NHL

Lockout cost: $100M so far NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The financial losses are starting to pile up as a result of the NHL lockout.

And Tuesday, the league made that public.

In speaking to reporters after talks finished up for the day between the NHL and the NHLPA, Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly estimated that the league has lost $100 million in revenues from the canceled preseason. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;was not overly encouraging.â&#x20AC;?

And though they can pick up at any time, for the moment, there are no further talks scheduled. That only further increases speculation that regular-season games could be lost, with an announcement sometime this week. The season was slated to begin Oct. 11. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are closer by definition (to canceling regular season games),â&#x20AC;? Daly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are focused on minimizing the damage.â&#x20AC;?

Weis did that with every relevant player in every game the Wildcats had played this season, all with the idea of gaining an edge — however small — for his players to take advantage of when they travel to Manhattan for Saturday’s 11 a.m. kickoff against the seventhranked Wildcats.

“Learning what they’re doing really isn’t the issue,” Weis said. “It’s learning what they’re doing with who they have this year — what are they doing now that they weren’t doing and why are they doing it? And then what are you gonna do about it?”

In every way, Weis has the utmost respect for KState coach Bill Snyder and the program he has built, going as far even as to call it “a role model” for what he would like to build in Lawrence. But having respect for an opponent and lying down for him are different things, and, respect or not, Weis has done and will continue to do everything he can to put his Jayhawks in a position to win this weekend.

“You can’t go to a game saying, ‘Well, we’re 1-3, they’re 4-0, let’s go in there and just try to keep it close. The fan base’ll be happy. Just go in there and try to keep it close.’” Weis said. “I’d rather lose by 100 trying to win.”

Jayhawks healthy A couple of Jayhawks who missed time against Northern Illinois because of injury two weeks ago are expected to play this weekend against Kansas State.

Senior safety Lubbock Smith, who missed two games because of a leg injury, and junior running back Taylor Cox, who started at NIU but left the game early in the first quarter, were back practicing full-speed on Tuesday.

“Everybody’s on the go list,” said Weis of KU’s available players. “Even the guys that were banged up the last time we played.”

No motivation necessary Although this weekend’s game marks his first shot at the Wildcats, Weis made it clear that he understood the importance of the rivalry to people across the state and how that trickled down to his players, particularly KU’s 24 Kansas natives.

“We’re 1-3, we’re playing against our in-state rival, who’s been owning (us) for the last three years,” Weis said. “If you really need to motivate them, then we really have a serious problem. Now, you prod ’em, but it shouldn’t take much prodding. It should be as plain as day. I shouldn’t have to be Ronald Reagan, ‘We’re winning one for the Gipper.’”

Self extension a win-win At the end of Tuesday’s news conference, Weis, who makes $2.5 million per year, was asked about the recent contract extension given to KU men’s basketball coach Bill Self that is worth more than $53 million through the year 2021-22. As he has done since arriving in Lawrence, Weis sang Self’s praises.

“Every once in a while, you have an opportunity in sports for both sides to win,” Weis said. “It doesn’t happen very often now.

Usually either the coach wins or the organization wins. But every once in a while, you get a special situation that comes along where both sides end up winning, and, to me, that’s what that was.

“A guy who’s won eight (Big 12) championships in a row, who’s just done a wonderful job, who really is, right now one of the best, if not the best, coaches in America in any sport, and to be able to set up a situation for everyone to walk away from this content, I’m glad it worked out that way for KU. I think it’s a great thing.”

Veritas sweeps home tri; Seabury 0-2 J-W Staff Reports

EUDORA — Veritas Christian’s volleyball team kept its successful season rolling Tuesday night by sweeping Bishop Seabury Academy, 25-22, 25-18, and Kansas City East Home School, 27-25, 25-23.

The Eagles’ victories at their home triangular improved their record to 183, and they did the bulk of their damage with 23 aces on the night. Ali Dover served seven aces, Teri Huslig contributed four and Abi Bartlow, Madi Bennett and Lacey Billings each chipped in three.

Said coach Mike Bartlow: “It’s something we emphasized for the girls in practice, not only the difficulty of the serve but movement and placement. It helps momentum to get aces and pumps the team up.”

Huslig’s 17 kills led the Eagles, while Billings had a team-best 21 assists.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Yanks 1 up; A’s tie Texas The Associated Press

American League Yankees 4, Red Sox 3, 12 innings NEW YORK — Raul Ibanez tied it with a pinchhit homer in the ninth inning then had an RBI single in the 12th, helping the Yankees remain a game up on Baltimore in the AL East with one game to go.

With a second comeback spurred by Ibanez in the last 10 days, the Yankees need a win or Orioles loss on the final day of the season to secure their 13th division title since 1996.

The Orioles beat Tampa Bay 1-0 earlier.

If the teams end up even after today’s games, they’ll play a tiebreaker Thursday in Baltimore.

The Yankees kept missing chances on a misty night. They were 0-58 when trailing after eight innings this season, then rallied in the ninth.

Athletics 3, Rangers 1 OAKLAND, CALIF. — Travis Blackley allowed one run over six innings in a strong bounce-back performance that helped Oakland move into a firstplace tie in the AL West with Texas and set up a one-game showdown for the division title.

A night after holding a raucous celebration after clinching their first playoff berth since 2006, the A’s erased the last piece of what had been a 13-game deficit in the division race on June 30 to take a share of first place for the first time since March 29.

Blackley (6-4) gave up three hits and struck out five a week after the Rangers knocked him out with a five-run first inning in the shortest start of his ca-

reer. He allowed only an National League RBI double to Josh Hamilton in what was the latest Reds 3, Cardinals 1 ST.

With one game remaining in the regular season, Cabrera leads the American League in average (.331), home runs (44) and RBIs (139), putting him on the brink of becoming the first Triple Crown winner since Boston’s Carl Yastrzemski in 1967.

Marlins 4, Mets 3, 11 innings MIAMI — New York knuckleballer R.A. Dickey struck out one-shot wonder Adam Greenberg, but also gave up two homers in his final start of a Cy Young-hopeful season, and the Mets lost to the Marlins.

The Marlins’ Greenberg struck out on three pitches against Dickey when he batted for the first time in seven years in the sixth inning. Greenberg signed a one-day contract before the game, his first since he was beaned in his majorleague debut in 2005.

KU BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK

Prep PG Peters to visit Kansas

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Roddy Peters, a 6-foot4, 180-pound senior point guard from Suitland High in District Heights, Md., will make an official recruiting trip to Kansas University on Oct. 19-20, Rivals.com reports.

Peters, who is ranked No. 39 in the Class of 2013, set up the visit during an in-home meeting Tuesday with KU coach Bill Self.

Peters has a list of KU, Rutgers, X a v i e r , Peters Maryland, Georgetown and UCLA. “I’m looking for somewhere where I can come in and play and get the ball put in my hands,” Peters told Rivals.com. “I can get to the basket and use my size and I can hit the jump shot.”

Mason to visit: Frank Mason, a 5-11 senior point guard from Massanutten Military Academy in Woodstock, Va., will visit KU on Thursday, according to Rivals.com. Mason, who is ranked No. 131 nationally, signed with Towson last November, but elected to attend prep school for academic reasons. He now has KU, South Carolina, Tennessee, Oklahoma State, Virginia Tech and others on his list. Mason averaged 27

That included senior Clay Stewart, the 109thbest player in his class, according to TopDrawerSoccer.com.

“He definitely made it difficult back there, that’s for sure,” Free State senior midfielder Evan Smith said. “He was winning a lot of balls in the air and making great passes to his forwards. He’s big, strong, physical and fast, so it’s pretty hard to get past that sometimes.”

The Firebirds also had to try to get their shots around 6-foot-4 junior goaltender Nick Riggle.

“Once you see size like that in the goal ... not very often do you play against it,” Barah said. “He was really good at coming off his line and clearing everything out. He made it a little tough for us.”

Free State (6-5) fell behind early.

In the eighth minute, Olathe South’s Dakota Storck dropped a pass back for Haakon Tabel, who launched it into the

allowed them to work on possession and switching the ball from side-to-side while maintaining control.

“It’s an easy game, but we can’t underestimate them,” Lyan said. “There’s always a chance to improve.”

Senior forward Luke Matthews played a perfect pass in front of the goal to Lyan, wearing two defenders, in the 12th minute, and Lyan scooted it into the goal for a 2-0 lead.

In the 39th minute, Gavin Fischer set up Lyan on the right side, and he made the defenders look like statues as he blazed past them and scored, giving the Lions a 4-0 advantage.

points a game last season at Petersburg (Va.) High.

Young down to four: James Young, a 6-6 senior shooting guard from Rochester (Mich.) High School, has narrowed his list of prospective schools to KU, Kentucky, Michigan State and Syracuse.

The country’s No. 8-rated player has eliminated Arizona and Louisville from consideration. He has yet to set a visit date to KU.

Randle cuts list: No. 1-ranked Julius Randle, a 6-9 senior from Prestonwood Christian Academy in Plano, Texas, on Tuesday cut Duke, North Carolina, Baylor and Oklahoma State from his list of schools. He is considering KU, Kentucky, Florida, N.C. State, Texas and Oklahoma as reported by his high school athletic department on Twitter.

at times, senior midfielder Johannes Reiber said the Lions made a point not to think of the Pioneers as a lesser team than Lawrence.

“We just try to play our game in the first 10 minutes and try to put it away really early, score three, and then we can just relax and have fun,” said Reiber, who scored Lawrence’s third goal in the 16th minute.

In the second half, junior defender Connor Henrichs gave the Lions a 5-0 lead after a shot pinballed off numerous legs and feet in front of the goal before Henrichs controlled the ball and put it away.

In the 70th minute, Connor Murphy benefited from a flick by Bray Kelly in front of the goal and put a shot inside the left post for a 7-1 Lawrence lead.

Carrot soup is creamy, smoky

By Alison Ladman For The Associated Press

With its robust blend of sweet, creamy, spicy and smoky flavors, this soup is perfect for a chilly fall afternoon. The beautiful orange color, the subtle smoky-spicy flavor of the chipotle, and the satisfying creamy texture make this recipe a perfectly seasonal lunch or appetizer.

Consider topping the soup with seared shrimp or shredded pork for a quick weeknight dinner.

Creamy Chipotle Carrot Soup Start to finish: 45 minutes Servings: 6 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 large yellow onion, diced 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 pound carrots, peeled and diced 2 potatoes, peeled and diced 1 canned chipotle pepper (in adobo sauce), minced 1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from canned chipotle peppers) 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth 1 cup heavy cream Salt and ground black pepper Sliced scallions, to serve In a large, deep pot over medium, heat the oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook until lightly browned, about 10 to 12 minutes. Add the carrots, potatoes and chipotle. Cook for 5 minutes, then add the adobo sauce and broth. Bring to a simmer and cook until the carrots and potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.

Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth. Return the soup to the pot and return to a simmer. Stir in the cream and season with salt and pepper. Serve topped with sliced scallions.

Put the coffee back in coffeecake Hard cider sales are bubbling up

By Alison Ladman For The Associated Press

Adding coffee to coffeecake is a simple way to take something great and make it even better.

Because if you think conventional coffeecakes pair well with your favorite cup of java, wait until you try a coffeecake spiked with coffee. Still not enough jolt for you?

Head to the grocer’s coffee aisle and grab a jar of instant espresso powder, then substitute that for the instant coffee.

By Fred Tasker McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Coffee Coffeecake Start to finish: 1 hour (20 minutes active) Servings: 12 For the topping: 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, room temperature 2 tablespoons sugar Pinch salt 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup all-purpose flour For the cake: 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules 2 tablespoons water 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

moving a colony of unwanted bees from a resident’s shed and moving them into the right equipment so he could keep them for himself.

“Just had a notion I wanted to do it,” Bean said of beekeeping. “I think after a while, you sort of realize it sort of fits your personality.”

In addition to raising his own bees, Bean teaches beekeeping for beginners and gets called a couple times a month to remove bee colonies from homes and trees. If he can keep them alive, which he tries to do, he can relocate the bees to his own hives and harvest their honey.

From time to time, Bean does get stung. He’s learned a little onion juice is the best thing to take the edge off the sting.

“Sometimes I get a little too brave,” he said. “But ...

I’ve been around bees long enough that I pretty much respect their instincts.”

On a cool, overcast day last week, most of Bean’s bees were holed up in their hives. He said they like to be warm and they’re more active when it’s hot — but not too hot.

Bean recalled observing his bees during this summer’s most sweltering days. They wisely did their work before dawn

THIS COFFEECAKE has coffee in it for added flavor.

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 eggs 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup sour cream Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat a 9-by-9-inch baking pan with baking spray.

To make the topping, in a medium bowl use an elec-

tric mixer to beat together the butter, sugar, salt and vanilla until creamy. Add the flour and mix just until moist crumbs form. Set aside in the refrigerator.

To prepare the cake, in a medium bowl mix the coffee granules and water until dissolved. Add the cinnamon, vanilla, butter, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Use an electric mixer to beat until

fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping the bowl between additions.

Stir in half the flour followed by half the sour cream, then the remaining flour and sour cream. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Sprinkle the cake batter with the topping. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes.

Let cool in the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Eating honeycomb and bee pollen Honeycomb can be chewed and swallowed, waxy comb and all, which Richard Bean of Blossom Trail Bee Ranch said is especially soothing for a sore throat.

Other suggestions include mashing a piece of comb atop buttered toast, or putting it on apple slices or cheese and crackers.

Eating bee pollen from local flowers is thought to have nutritional and anti-allergenic properties, although some sources recommend consulting a doctor first to avoid an unwanted allergic reaction.

Bean eats bee pollen straight from his hives.

But he said not everyone likes the grainy texture, preferring to sprinkle it in smoothies or on cereal. and after dusk, relaxing in the hive during the hottest part of the day.

“They were pretty much beaten down by the heat,” he said. “They respected what it did to them and what it took out of them.”

Seeing nature at work is among Bean’s favorite things about keeping bees.

“You never stop learning,” he said.

BEE FACTS

• Honeybees perform a waggle dance to communicate the location of food sources that are 100 yards up to two or three miles from the hive.

• In one trip, honeybees visit 100 to 1,500 blossoms to fill their honey crop, an organ separate from their digestive stomach that is used to transport nectar.

• In its entire lifespan, a worker bee produces only 1 1/2 teaspoons of honey.

• In producing just 1 pound of honey, a hive of bees will fly 90,000 miles, equivalent to 1.5 orbits around the earth.

• In winter, bees live on stored honey and pollen. They cluster into a ball to conserve warmth, maintaining a hive temperature that’s close to human body temperature.

• The beehive is a “super organism” where all the bees work to— Features reporter Sara Shepherd can gether as a single entity. A lone bee cannot live on its own outside be reached at 832-7187. Follow her at the hive.

Bacon shortage ‘baloney,’ but prices to rise

By Jim Suhr AP Business Writer

ST. LOUIS — Bacon lovers can relax. They’ll find all they want on supermarket shelves in the coming months, though their pocketbooks may take a hit.

The economics of the current drought are likely to nose up prices for bacon and other pork products next year, by as much as 10 percent. But U.S. agricultural economists are dismissing reports of a global bacon shortage that lent sizzle to headlines and Twitter feeds last week. Simply put, the talk of scarcity is hogwash.

“Use of the word ‘shortage’ caused visions of (1970s-style) gasoline lines in a lot of people’s heads, and that’s not the case,” said Steve Meyer, president of Iowa-based Paragon Economics and a consultant to the National Pork Producers Council and National Pork Board.

“If the definition of shortage is that you can’t find it on the shelves, then no, the concern is not valid. If the concern is higher cost for it, then yes.”

Fears about a scarcity of

“

Pork supplies will decrease slightly as we go into 2013. But the idea that there’ll be widespread shortages, that we’ll run out of pork, that’s really overblown.”

— Farm Bureau economist John Anderson bacon swept across social and mainstream media in recent weeks after Britain’s National Pig Association said a bacon shortage was “unavoidable,” citing a sharp decline in the continent’s pig herd and drought-inflated feed costs.

The report caused much consternation over a product that used to be merely a breakfast staple, but nowadays flavors everything from brownies to vodka.

The alarm was quickly dismissed by the American Farm Bureau Federation as “baloney.”

“Pork supplies will decrease slightly as we go into 2013,” Farm Bureau economist John Anderson said.

“But the idea that there’ll be widespread shortages, that

we’ll run out of pork, that’s really overblown.”

On Monday, a spokesman for the British pork trade group maintained its position that “there will be a significant tightening in the global pigmeat supply” in the second half of next year, because “the vast majority of pig producers around the world are losing money on every pig they sell.”

“Given the huge amount of interest in the United States created by our earlier press release, maybe more producers will now hang on in production, in the hope of recovering their losses next year and in 2014,” Digby Scott told The Associated Press in an email. “We agree with the view of some economists in the (United) States that supplies will tighten and prices will rise, but maybe you won’t see ‘standingin-line’ shortages in supermarkets. Time will tell.”

The stubborn drought in the U.S., the world’s biggest supplier of feed grains, undeniably will affect pig production. The Corn Belt’s lack of moisture has prompted the U.S. Agriculture Department to twice slash its forecast

for this year’s corn output, to the lowest level since at least since 2006.

Those lowered expectations sent prices of corn — also used in ethanol, further squeezing supply — to record highs through much of the summer. Feed generally makes up about 60 percent of the expense of raising a pig. Rather than absorb the higher costs, swine and beef producers often have culled their animals by sending them to slaughter.

Such liquidations could mean a temporary glut of pork on the U.S. market, depressing pork prices before the oversupply eases and the volume of pork drops again next year, causing hog prices to rebound, said Ron Plain, an agricultural economics professor at the University of Missouri in Columbia.

Consequently, he estimates, the higher costs will be passed along to consumers, who could end up paying 10 percent more for their bacon.

As of Friday, the USDA said, a pound of sliced bacon cost an average of $4.05 at the nation’s supermarkets, down 22 cents from a week earlier.

If your ancestors came over on the Mayflower, they probably brought apple seeds to plant when they arrived in the New World. The fruit was not so much for eating as for making hard cider.

The Pilgrims didn’t trust the local water — probably rightly — and knew from experience back home in England that the fermentation process would make the cider a bacteria-free form of hydration.

Hard cider was so popular then that they gave it in diluted form to children; historians say John Adams downed a draught for breakfast daily to settle his stomach.

While beer took over first place in the 1800s with the advent of German settlers and mammoth breweries, cider remained popular until the Temperance Movement of the late 1800s and early 1900s and Prohibition, from 1920 to 1933.

It’s now making a little comeback.

Hard cider sales soared 50 percent to $71.5 million in the past year, according to the Chicago market research firm SymphonyIRI Group. The Boston Beer Co., maker of Samuel Adams, has entered the market with its Angry Orchard Cider. And Anheuser-Busch has launched a low-calorie version called Michelob ULTRA Light Cider.

Local craft breweries from Michigan to New York state to Washington are putting their own spins of hard ciders.

Most hard cider has 5 to 6 percent alcohol, about the same as many beers, and half that of most wines. It ranges from 120 calories per 12-ounce bottle, not unlike many light beers, to 180, like many regular beers.

Cider-makers take pains to use a complex variety of apples in their quaff — sweet eating apples like Golden Delicious, Granny Smith and Gala as well as bittersweet apples such as Michelin, Binet Rouge, Medaille d’or. Some growers are even planting longshunned crabapples again.

So the cider, like wine, can range from light and tart to heavy and sweet. Some are still, others are fizzy, even sparkling.

A good, dry hard cider tastes clean, fresh, crisp, refreshing — unencumbered by the folderol that comes with wine. It embraces the same complexities of fruit, acid and tannin as wine. But nobody’s going to tell you it fades on the middle palate.

Fans say ciders stand up to spicy Indian, Chinese and Mexican fare. They go with the cheese course, with gouda, bleu, Emmenthaler.

In cooking, they’re used in place of wine or beer in cider-poached mussels, pork stews, even ciderlaced doughnuts.

Serious fans use them in cocktails, with gin and ginger in a Ginger Crisp, with light rum and pineapple juice in a Caribbean Crisp.

Another hard cider product gaining popularity is an improbable drink called ice cider. On pic-

frozen ones when I am short on time. Are they as good? No. Do they suffice?

Yes. Add the tomato sauce and the diced tomato, and simmer. Meanwhile, stir the cornstarch into the water and make a slurry.

A weekly guide to wine turesque Prince Edward County Island in Lake Erie, growers leave Russet, Ida Red and Northern Spy apples on the trees long after the usual September/October picking.

In January, when they are frozen solid, with juices and acids concentrated and water trapped in the ice, they are picked, pressed under tremendous force and fermented.

The result is an incredibly opulent, honeyed dessert cider of 6.5 percent alcohol that goes superbly with aged cheese, foie gras and apple upsidedown cake.

Highly recommended: Angry Orchard Hard Cider, “Traditionally Dry:” light and crisp and clean and refreshing, with pure, tart-apple flavors and subtle hints of something like tannin; an excellent aperitif; $9 per sixpack.

Crispin “Brown’s Lane” Imported Classic English Dry (Hard) Apple Cider: lightly sparkling, quite dry, with flavors of tart apples, caramel and earth and a bitter almond finish; $2.69 per 16.9 ounce bottle.

Prince Edward County Ice Cider, Ontario: intense and concentrated flavors of apples, cinnamon and honey; mediumsweet, with excellent acid balance to keep it from cloying; $30 per half-bottle.

Recommended: Hornsby’s Amber Draft Hard Cider: light and crisp, with spicy cinnamon flavors and a sweet finish; $20 for a 12-pack of 12-ounce bottles.

Angry Orchard “Apple Ginger” Hard Cider: crisp, medium body, flavors of sweet apples and spicy ginger, with a sweet finish; $9 per six-pack.

Angry Orchard “Crisp Apple” Hard Cider: light and crisp, slightly sweet, with concentrated apple flavors and a sweet, tangy finish; $9 per six-pack.

Michelob ULTRA Light Cider, by AnheuserBusch: clear in color, slightly sweet, light in body, with lightly sweet apple juice flavors; $7 per six-pack.

Strongbow English Imported Hard Cider: pale color, very dry, with tart, green-apple flavors, light carbonation and a slightly sweet finish; $10 per sixpack.

Martinelli’s Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Apple Cider: Soft and light and fizzy, with straightforward sweet apple flavors; $3.69 per 25.4 ounce bottle.

and seasonings and stir.

Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and red pepper flakes.

Add them to the sauce mixture and simmer for about 4 minutes until they are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook.

Serve over hot white rice. Set hot sauces out on the table for people who like it super-spicy. My husband drenched his. To each his own. I prefer to taste my food, but I suppose when it comes to the food of The Big Easy, hot and hotter is the order of the day.

BEEKEEPER RICHARD BEAN gets ready to check his hives. Bean has been working with bees for 40 years.

BELOW, Bean looks over one of the hives he has on his farm near Baldwin City. The Blossom Trail Bee Ranch will be one of the stops on this weekend’s Kaw Valley Farm Tour.

Bee ranch in Baldwin City a highlight of this year’s Kaw Valley Farm Tour

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

Buzzing bees blanket the tray of honeycomb in Richard Bean’s bare hands. At close range, their striped abdomens and delicate wings are visible in detail.

After 40 years of keeping bees, Bean still marvels at them.

“Gorgeous creations,” he says.

Spotting the queen, Bean pokes his finger into the mass of insects, gently nudging away some of the worker bees to show her off.

“How does she create 2,000 eggs a day?” he muses. “Machinery that we cannot really, in any way, manufacture — natural machinery.”

Bean’s Blossom Trail Bee Ranch, 669 E. 2100 Road in Baldwin City, will be one of 22 farms open to the public this weekend during the annual Kaw Valley Farm Tour.

Bean sells the honey, bee pollen and honeycomb he raises at the Saturday Lawrence Farmers’ Market and both Lawrence HyVees, 3504 Clinton Parkway and 4000 W. Sixth St. He harvests his products from about 20 hives he keeps at his home and another 10 or so he has off-site.

Bean says he believes bees can sense fear.

Perhaps that’s why he gets along with them.

Bean is not a man who is easily agitated. He’s tall and thin, and moves quietly and deliberately.

His voice is soft. He speaks slowly.

He’s calm, even while prying

KAW VALLEY FARM TOUR The Kaw Valley Farm Tour runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

The annual event celebrates the diversity and availability of locally grown food in northeast Kansas.

The 22 farms on this year’s tour produce a variety of products, including fruits, vegetables, beef, pork, cheese, wine, sod, flour and milk.

Tickets are $10 per vehicle for the weekend. For more information, a complete list of participating farms or to buy tickets online, visit KawValleyFarmTour.org.

Tickets also are available at all participating farms and at the following locations: The Merc, 901 Iowa; Lawrence Visitor Information Center, 402 N.

47 Telepathic gift

Dear Annie: I’m writing on behalf of those of us in the “trapped” generation. We are the ones who grew up thinking Doris Day was the ideal woman. We were college-educated, but still expected to marry and have a family. Many of us limited our careers to part-time efforts.

Then came our husbands’ midlife crises and no-fault divorces.

For many of us who had “dumbed down” our careers to care for our husbands, we weren’t able to make ends meet once the child support payments stopped. For some of us, we had sacrificed further education or job advances for our husbands’ careers.

According to the Social Security Administration, I never earned more than $10,000 per year until I was 45 years old. The divorce decree stated that I was to split the children’s college costs equally with

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

my ex, who was making three times my salary. I’ve run up a lot of personal debt paying for my kids’ education, and now, at age 60, I’m making what my husband made 30 years ago. I work hard, but can’t seem to get ahead.

If your male readers are wondering where the faithful women are, we are sitting home, living with the remnants of the stresses from one-sided divorces. I continue to hope that real companionship is still a possibility. — Thwarted

Candidates to face off in 1st debate The campaign that seems to have lasted forever enters its homestretch. Tonight marks the first of three presidential debates (8 p.m., ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, Univision, CNN, C-SPAN, CNBC, Fox News, MSNBC) between President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney. For the record, the first Republican primary debate of the 2012 election took place on May 5. Of 2011!

Tonight’s event, at the University of Denver, will be moderated by veteran PBS newsman Jim Lehrer and will focus on domestic affairs.

The debate offers Romney a chance to introduce — or, reintroduce — himself to voters who have yet to focus on the race or make up their minds.

Over the years, debates have provided challengers the opportunity to appear “presidential” and more up to the job than the incumbent.

Or at least more likable. That was the case in 1976, when President Gerald Ford stumbled on issues of foreign policy, giving Democratic challenger Jimmy Carter an opening. Four years later, Carter seemed ill at ease compared to a confident Ronald Reagan, who assured voters that he was more than a genial Hollywood star.

Romney’s supporters find the 1980 analogy apt because, just like Reagan, he is facing a president beset with a bad economy.

Glancing back at the year of the Carter-Reagan election, you can now see that even the prime-time television zeitgeist was moving in Reagan’s direction and beginning to tout his pro-prosperity mantra.

For years, television programs had celebrated the everyman.

From Ralph Kramden to Archie Bunker, the average guy was king.

The middle class was depicted as a kind of paradise. Even an allpowerful sorceress like Samantha Stephens on “Bewitched” wanted to join. The rich, when they were depicted at all, were pitiable, effete and detached, like the Howells on “Gilligan’s Island.”

Tonight’s other highlights

Miami boot camp begins for a lucky few on “The X Factor” (7 p.m., Fox).

The newcomers head to the mall with their alien friends on “The Neighbors” (7:30 p.m., ABC).

Dean returns from purgatory on the season premiere of “Supernatural” (8 p.m., CW).

“Life After Top Chef” (9 p.m., Bravo) debuts.

“Food Paradise” (10 p.m., Travel) celebrates bacon.

BIRTHDAYS

Singer Alan O’Day is 72. Singer Lindsey Buckingham is 63. Rock musician Tommy Lee is 50. Actor Clive Owen is 48. Actress Janel Moloney is 43. Singer Gwen Stefani (No Doubt) is 43. Rock singer G. Love is 40. Actress Keiko Agena is 39. Actress Neve Campbell is 39.

Rock musician Josh Klinghoffer (Red Hot Chili Peppers) is 31. Actor Seth Gabel is 31. Actor Erik Von Detten is 30. Actress-singer Ashlee Simpson-Wentz is 28.

Dear Thwarted: We are sure you speak for many women. But please don’t give up. Your children are grown now. If you want to meet men (or anyone), devote some time to yourself. Look into activities and organizations that are free, lowcost or volunteer, and see if you can break out of the cycle you are in.

Dear Annie: I’m a middle-aged woman living with my boyfriend. We have both been married before and have children.

When I met “Doug,” we would sit and talk for hours. Since our engagement, however, everything seems to be going downhill. We have not set a wedding date, nor do we discuss it. My credit is not where it should be.

The amount of money I make will never allow me to get caught up. I have been applying for new jobs, but haven’t found one yet. Doug says I need my credit to be good be-

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Wednesday, Oct. 3, 2012: This year you develop a tendency to keep a lot to yourself. At times, you might feel hurt by someone’s comments or actions, and could cop an attitude as a result. If you are single, you could meet someone who is emotionally unavailable. If you are attached, spending time alone could be more of a pleasure than ever before.

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) The more you express your flexibility, the more your associates might be willing to bend as well. When you work together, unusually creative and workable ideas pop up. Tonight: Shop till you drop.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) The Moon in your sign highlights you. Express your feelings to a receptive audience, and encourage a healthy exchange of feedback.

Tonight: Time for a child or loved one.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You might decide to retreat.

Don’t worry — ideas will flow anyway. Tonight: Get some extra Z’s.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Should a question arise as to how you should interpret a statement or action, err on the side of optimism. News from a distance could shake you up, but ultimately it is very good. Tonight: Where the action is.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) In the long run, sensitivity to those in charge will allow you to have greater independence. You quickly build others’ trust. Tonight: Out late ... very late.

fore he sets a date. I’m interviewing now for a job that could turn into a steady and rewarding career. He said, “Let’s see if you get it.”

Whenever someone asks me, “When is the big date?” my heart sinks.

I am starting to feel as though Doug is not ready to commit. He proposed, but now we argue a lot.

I’m no spring chicken, Annie. I feel as if I’m running out of time. What should I do? — Want Happiness Sooner Dear Want: Doug is reluctant to take on your debts and may fear you are using him for financial security. He wants to see that you have a decent job before he marries you. This is not an unreasonable concern.

The fact that you’re in a hurry only makes him more skittish. If you get a good job and Doug still won’t set a date, then reconsider the relationship.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your vision defines what will occur. Use this skill and incorporate it with your ability to communicate. Tonight: Feed your mind.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Let someone else make the first move. You might be overreacting and say too much, which will cause yet another problem. Tonight: Go with a suggestion.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) A friend means a lot to you — and you to him or her. Be careful, as this person’s feelings possibly could develop into more.

Tonight: Sort through possibilities.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Listen to news with an eye to applying this knowledge to your domestic life. A relative could reveal a family skeleton. Tonight: Roll with the moment.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Your creativity remains high. Others often lure you into solving their problems. Tonight: Let your imagination rock and roll.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) If you become confused, home in on the basics, with an eye to your personal life. Deal with a child or loved one directly. Tonight: Invite friends over.

Pisces (Feb. 18-March 20) Return calls and listen to others in regard to planning meetings and moving a project forward.

A key associate attempts to make an impression in order to get some extra time with you. Tonight: Catch up on news with friends.
