LAWRENCE RETIREE GROVER EVERETT has not missed an Octoginta since he began participating at age 34.

Now at age 71, Everett is preparing for his 38th ride on Sunday.

Longtime Octoginta rider, 71, isn’t ready to rest on accomplishments

Seventy-one-year-old Grover Everett has not missed Lawrence’s renowned Octoginta bicycle ride in 37 years, and he’s not about to miss this year’s Oct. 14 event either.

Heat, cold, wind and rain haven’t deterred him from participating in the 80-mile event. Not even quintuple coronary artery bypass surgery or knee replacement could stop him.

“I’ve just been lucky to not be sick or injured at time the Octogintas have come up each year,” he said.

Everett, a retired Kansas University chemistry professor, was a runner before he was a bicyclist. He earned an athletic scholarship at the University of North Carolina for track and cross country, and he won Atlantic Coast Conference championships in both.

He picked up bicycling while pursing a doctorate at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass. He said he bought an old, three-speed English bicycle that he used to “get around town.” Then, he brought the bicycle with him to KU in 1966 and used it for his approximately 2-mile commute to work in

— Registration for the 6.2-mile time trial race, which is a USA Cycling sanctioned event. Riders will start at one-minute intervals beginning at 8:30 a.m. at the KDOT material lot, two miles east of Lawrence at the intersection of East 1750 and North 1400 roads. Cost is $20, except ages 10-18, which are free. ! 9:30 a.m. — Tour de County, a 30-mile ride, departs from South Park, 12th and Massachusetts streets.

In 1975, he said he purchased his first “good bike,” a 10-speed, and that’s when he decided to participate in his first Octoginta, which had been around five years at that time. He was hooked.

“It’s always a fun event, and there are hundreds of bicyclists — some fast riders and some slow riders — and most of the time

And then there’s the food: a full-fledged breakfast, snacks and a lunch that includes a traditional minestrone soup.

“They feed you really well. They put on a splendid breakfast after about the first 15 miles, and so a lot of people just ride to the breakfast and then go home,” he said.

But not him.

He’s always opted to complete the longest of the two routes offered during the Octoginta.

Each year, the ride takes a different route, and the route is kept a secret until the day before the event.

Everett said the ride has taken him north, south, east and west of Lawrence, and he’s enjoyed the scenery and meeting new people along the ride.

Over the years, he recalled the Octoginta only being canceled once at the halfway point because of approaching thunderstorms. Another year, he said it was delayed about an hour because of thick fog.

“There has been rain.

There has been wind. It has been cold, and it has been hot, but generally I think there has been pretty good weather,” he said.

When he rode in his first Octoginta, he was 34 years old, didn’t know anyone and rode along with the front of the pack.

“I was kind of the odd man out,” he said. “I was amused that they all had very expensive, fancy

Politics threaten moderate Praeger

By John Hanna Associated Press

TOPEKA — An acrimonious debate over the federal health care overhaul is seeping into state capitols, creating fissures among Republicans as the tea party movement reasserts its influence in GOPcontrolled areas.

The debate may even keep Kansas Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger from pursuing another elected term.

States face decisions about setting up online health insurance marketplaces, and a mid-November deadline for declaring their intentions has sparked conflicts between governors and legislators across the country. In two GOP strongholds, Kansas and Mississippi, elected insurance commissioners are at odds with governors, even though they’re all Republicans.

TOPEKA — Democrats say that conservative Republican groups that helped defeat moderate Republican state legislators in the August primary by saying they were linked to President Barack Obama and “Obamacare” will do the same thing in the general election against Democrats in state legislative races.

The Republican Party primary was a free-for-all in spending by groups that operate independently from the candidates and those that provide issue ads.

“We have far exceeded this year what has occurred in prior years,” said Carol Williams, executive director of the Kansas Governmental Ethics Commission.

For example, the Kansas Chamber of Commerce political action committee spent $675,000 on behalf of conservative state Senate candidates for the primary. The Chamber’s ally Americans for Prosperity spent unknown amounts since it doesn’t have to report its expenditures because it is an issue advocacy group. Both AFP

JOYCE M. STEINLE Joyce M. Steinle, 78, died on October 2, 2012 at Presbyterian Manor in Lawrence, Kansas.

She was born in Russell, KS on August 26, 1934, the daughter of George Steinle Jr. and Martha E. (Galyardt) Steinle.

Joyce graduated from Russell High School and was Drum Major of the Band for three years. She excelled in this endeavor and was lauded by many for the way she led the marching band and for twirling shows at the halftime of basketball games. During her later years in high school and after, Joyce worked with her mother in the popular family restaurant, Martha’s Café. During her mother’s reclining years and after her mother’s death in 1976, Joyce managed and worked in Martha’s Café.

After closing the restaurant, Joyce worked in the Russell Inn Restaurant and then was an employee at Russell Regional Hospital in the kitchen. When her health permitted, Joyce was an avid walker and many Russell residents would comment about seeing her walk long distances from her home in the early evenings.

Many times, she was accompanied by one of her dogs, which she adored through the years. Joyce was a lifetime active member of St. John Lutheran

Church in Russell.

In addition to her giving to her church, she was a generous contributor to many charitable organizations both locally and nationally.

Joyce is survived by her brother Leonard G. Steinle and wife, Nancy.

Additionally, she was very loving to other family members, including niece Lenette Johnson and husband, Steve; nephew Kirk Steinle and wife Denise; nephew Dr. Brad Steinle and wife Monica; and niece Melanie Steinle and fiancé Randy Watson. Other survivors include grand nieces and nephews; Adrian, Kirsten, Kayla, Juliana, Alex, Jacob and Jenna.

DALE AND PATRICIA RUMMER A memorial service for Dale Ivan Rummer and Patricia Ann Rummer, both of Lawrence, will be held at 4:00 Wednesday, October 10, 2012 at Westside Presbyterian Church.

Inurnment will follow at Pioneer Cemetery. Dale died Oct 5 and Patricia died Oct 6, 2012, both at Lawrence Presbyterian Manor surrounded by family and friends.

Dale was born September 21, 1926 in Wichita, Kansas to James E. and Agnes (Martin) Rummer. Pat was also born in Wichita, January 23, 1929, to Walter E. and Dorothea M. (Brehm) Burnham. They met at a church function and were married in 1948 while both were attending KU. Dale received his BS in Electrical Engineering and Pat received a BS in Mathematics.

Dale began as an Instructor in Electrical Engineering in 1949 and went on to complete his MS and PhD in Electrical Engineering.

He served KU for 46 years as Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering. He also worked as an engineering consultant on a wide variety of cases.

Pat was a homemaker and mother and supported Dale’s consulting with office management. She joined Acme Laundry as bookkeeper in 1976 and worked there for 16 years. They enjoyed a wide range of hobbies and activities including Scouting, needlework, shop projects, music,

GOP

which is headed by billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch.

In some of their mailers, the moderate Republican state legislators were accused of being supporters of Obama and the Affordable Care Act, or “Obamacare.”

Jeff Glendening, a spokesman for the Chamber, said it was appropriate because some of the moderate Republicans supported increased spending and tax increases.

Asked whether the chamber planned the same strategy to defeat Democrats in the Nov. 6 general election, Glendening declined to say. But he noted, “He (Obama) is the leader of their party.”

House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, said: “The misinformation that came out in the primary elections is undoubtedly going to be repeated again in the general election.”

The Kansas Legislature had nothing to do with the passage of Obamacare, since it was an act approved by Congress, signed into law by the president and ruled constitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court.

have a plan ready. Gov. Sam Brownback, a longtime critic of the health care law, plans to wait until after the presidential election to set the state’s course and is under pressure from fellow conservatives and tea party activists to avoid any state involvement.

The disagreement with Brownback has political consequences for Praeger, the most prominent of a dwindling number of GOP moderates in state government. Now in the middle of a four-year term, she disclosed in a recent interview that she’s all but decided against running again in 2014 and acknowledged she’d have difficulty winning a Republican primary.

“My position is really more apolitical, just trying to be a good insurance regulator,” she said. “His is more of a political position, and I understand that.”

Brownback’s office declined requests from The Associated Press for an interview. It pointed to previous statements that if GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney defeats Democratic President Barack Obama, who championed the health care overhaul, states are likely to get a waiver from many of the federal health care law’s requirements.

“We’re operating in a seat of uncertainty,” said state Sen. Mary PilcherCook, a conservative Shawnee Republican who argues any involvement in an exchange would make Kansas a “tool of the federal government.”

Exchanges are sometimes described as the health coverage equivalent of websites such as Travelocity. States that aren’t setting up their own still can declare by Nov. 16 that they’d like to be partners with the federal government, handling consumer complaints and controlling which companies sell coverage.

Pat and Dale are survived by their three children: Kenneth D. (Myrna) Rummer, Corning, Iowa, Gwendolyn K. Lewis, Startup, Washington, and Robert B. (Jean) Rummer, Lawrence; nine grandchildren—Sara, Timothy, Nicholas, Jeffrey, Tricia, Steven, Ivan, Caitlyn, and Joiwyn; and four greatgrandchildren—Carbon, Hypatia, Alex, Zoe. They are also survived by Pat’s brother, Robert Burnham, of Seattle, Washington and four nieces and nephews; Charles, Stephen, Donald, and Jane.

— Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton there isn’t a person in this building (the Kansas Statehouse) that is going to impact whether Obamacare goes forward or not, and the Republicans are simply trying to tie people to what they perceive to be an unpopular issue at the federal level and change the outcome of elections based on it,” Davis said.

During the Republican Party primary, several moderate Republican senators said they were leading in their races but in the final weeks were smeared by numerous slick campaign pieces mailed to their constituents day after day.

“If you have enough money, and come out totally negative and pound people and pound people, eventually it makes a difference,” said Senate President Steve Morris, RHugoton, who was defeated in the GOP primary by state Rep. Larry Powell, R-Garden City.

Morris felt the sting of Americans for Prosperity early on. An AFP postcard sent to voters in the western Kansas district, said, “Unhappy that Obama and for minimum requirements for policies sold on the exchange, despite his stance.

She’s also been a part of the national debate, serving as chairwoman of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners committee on health care policy since 2009. She was the group’s president in 2008.

According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, 16 states have set up online marketplaces, and three more plan to partner with the federal government.

Seven states have declared that they won’t set up exchanges, the foundation says. Six, including Florida and Texas, have Republican governors. In the seventh, New Hampshire, a GOP-dominated legislature set the policy.

In Michigan, GOP Gov. Rick Snyder pushed to set up a state exchange but met resistance from GOP legislators who feared it would hurt them in elections this year. In Missouri, Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon halted work on an exchange amid growing opposition in his state’s GOP-controlled legislature, and the state’s voters will consider a ballot initiative in November preventing the governor from moving forward on his own.

With insurance commissioners appointed in all but 11 states, they’ve typically followed their governors.

Even in states with elected regulators, the commissioners are from the same political party as the chief executive.

But after Mississippi’s statewide elections in 2011, the governorship changed from term-limited Haley Barbour to Phil Bryant.

Both are Republicans, but Barbour had pushed to set up a state exchange, while Bryant wants to wait until after the presidential election.

Tea party influence Mississippi Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney has been sharply criticized by the tea party movement for working on a state exchange. He, in turn, said the tea party members were using “untested legal theories, untested loopholes and fuzzy logic” to try to dis-

During the last legislative session, Morris voted for a proposed constitutional amendment to be placed on the ballot that said Kansans could not be forced to buy insurance.

The amendment was seen as a rebuke to Obamacare.

But AFP criticized Morris for also voting for a provision that said if the Supreme Court had already upheld the constitutionality of Obamacare then the state constitutional amendment would not be submitted to voters. Supporters of that provision said it would have been a waste of money to have a ballot measure on Obamacare if the Supreme Court had already decided the issue.

With advance voting in the general election starting Oct. 17, candidates say they expect the onslaught of political mailers to start soon.

suade him from the work.

The tea party also is a key influence in Kansas, where pressure from the right last year prompted Brownback to reject $31.5 million in federal funds to help build the computer infrastructure necessary for an exchange.

“I’m looking for the state of Kansas to stand up to the federal government and say, ‘You’ve crossed the line and you need to back off,’” said Bob Bowser, an activist from Salina.

“We don’t want Kansas to adopt any part of Obamacare.”

In Kansas, the tea party movement’s rise and frustration with the health care overhaul boosted Brownback into office in 2010 and gave the GOP its first sweep of all statewide and congressional offices on the ballot since 1964.

In primaries this year, conservatives suggested that GOP moderates who controlled the state Senate were soft in their opposition to the health care law. Eight moderate Republican senators lost, all but guaranteeing full conservative control of the Legislature next year.

“The people of Kansas have spoken clearly on this issue in two elections,” said Brownback spokeswoman Sherriene Jones-Sontag.

students there qualify for free lunch, a service based on family income and one often used as a measurement of socioeconomics within the education community. An additional 10 percent qualify for reduced-price lunch, said Paula A. Murrish, the district’s director of food services. Of all Lawrence schools, Kennedy receives the most Title 1 funding, federal grants for schools deemed to have a high population of “atrisk” kids. Its total “title” funding for last year was $248,184, and about 60 percent of students qualify for extra one-on-one help in reading and math.

Because of title funding, Kennedy has the smallest teacher-to-student ratio.

Kennedy was the only school in the Lawrence district not to make the state’s “Standard of Excellence” for performance on standardized tests this year, the third year in a row. But that’s an aboveand-beyond award, not a mark that a school is failing, Anderson said. Kennedy did make adequate yearly progress buildingwide so, if No Child Left Behind were still in effect, it would not be a “flagged” school.

Anderson said the performance issues are complicated. Kennedy is sometimes ranked below other Lawrence schools but not below state averages.

The answers?

Talk to teachers in the school and they’ll bring up that many Kennedy kids have outside-the-classroom stressors. What can they do to alleviate them?

It’s a source of stress for themselves.

Communities in Schools started this year as a partnership with United Way and a means to have case management services in the school. Brooke Miller, site coordinator for the school’s Communities program, says that it serves to “do the things teachers don’t have time to do,” like address outside-school issues and help families get access to social services.

“Barriers to learning often come from home life,” she said.

Miller coordinates schoolwide programming like mentoring and tutoring. Her group, which includes Kansas University

— Lauren Mitchell, a second-year kindergarten teacher at Kennedy School social work students, then targets individual students based on red flags like low academic achievement or low attendance.

They case-manage 65 students. It’s the first year of the program, so statistics aren’t in on their success, but Miller said she feels positive.

In the classroom, Anderson said, individualized attention and “positive behavioral support system” help all students, but especially those with emotional trauma or heightened levels of stress that can distract from learning. The Kennedy PRIDE system gives students “Kennedy dollars” for good behavior and academic improvement; they can later cash in their dollars for trinkets.

But more than anything, teachers’ emotional involvement makes a difference in an at-risk, chronically stressed kid’s life, said Lauren Mitchell, a second-year kindergarten teacher at the school.

“We work on a lot of what we call social-emotional learning, like how to handle pain, anger or frustration,” she said.

Educational theory has recently taken a closer look at so-called “life skills learning” or “noncognitive skills development” as being a crucial foundation for more traditional facts-and-figures learning.

That’s the approach Kennedy educators and support staff like Miller have, Anderson said, and state assessment numbers show results.

“There are happy, good things happening here,” she said.

The next similar theater will open within a month in Sioux Falls, S.D. “The company even has interest from out of the country,” he said.

Instead of hauling 250-pound reels of film for 45-minute documentaries, projectionists just have

to start the film, which is loaded into a computer from a two-pound cartridge.

Digital technology also allows the Cosmosphere to show Hollywood movies, which were rarely put onto IMAX film. But for now the center will continue showing only documentaries.

“It’s been a learning curve to find out what works best,” Shull said.

“There are good things to come.”

The Cosmosphere began showing digital films Friday.

KU’s new Office of First-Year Experience has a budget of $1,506,650 for the 2013 fiscal year, KU spokesman Jack Martin said. That money comes from general-use funds, fees for new students and savings from the university’s Changing for Excellence efficiency program. In the office, there are six full-time staff positions, two of which are newly created at KU, plus some part-time student assistants, he said.

The office is “essentially an evolution” of the old New Student Orientation office, Martin said. Part of its budget goes back to academic departments with which it collaborates on seminars for first-year students. And, he said, the office is designed to help academic programs by keeping students at KU longer.

“Creating a central place to coordinate activities like this is one part of our universitywide approach to getting students off to a good start so that we can increase the number who stay on track and graduate,” Martin said. “If a student doesn’t progress to graduation and leaves KU, that hurts both the student and the academic programs the caller is concerned about.”

They were very hyper about things. They would bike very fast down a long hill, and I didn’t like to go that fast, so I would catch up with them going up the next hill,” he said with a chuckle.

He also recalled the changes in clothes, shoes and helmets. When he first started riding, bicyclists didn’t wear helmets, and then a company came out with a funny-looking helmet that resembled an inverted bowl, he said.

Everett said he used to wear a T-shirt, floppy hat to protect him from the sun and running shoes.

Nowadays, he sports a helmet, bicycling shorts, a jersey and clipless shoes, which are shoes that snap into the pedals.

— Grover Everett mately 80-mile route on gravel and dirt roads that only about 70 percent of the participants finished.

He completed that ride with his neighbor and longtime friend Joe Douglas.

“He really enjoys being on the bike and does long rides,” Douglas said of Everett. “He’s not in it for the competition. He enjoys the experience.”

Everett said he wore out his 10-speed bicycle about 15 years ago and now he has a 27-speed bicycle.

He typically takes three 40-miles rides a week, and on the other days he swims laps. He had to give up running about 10 years ago because of his bad knees. He had joint

replacement in one knee about one year ago, but that recovery wasn’t as difficult as his heart surgery four years ago.

“I had no symptoms and was bicycling at the same level that I am now,” he said. A stress test detected that he had clogged arteries, and doctors had him in the operating room in less than a week. Everett believes hereditary factors played a role in his heart condition because his father died from a sudden heart attack at age 66.

“My father never had any symptoms, either,” he said. “That may have happened to me if I hadn’t had those tests done.”

Everett was determined to get back to exercising, and he was walking several miles a day within a couple of weeks. He was back on his bike in three months.

He said he enjoys riding south and southwest of Lawrence near the towns of Edgerton, Baldwin City, Pomona and

Overbrook. “There’s less traffic and nice roads and nice hills,” he said. “I really like to work the hills.

Most people don’t like hills, but it’s good exercise.” Sometimes, he will pick out a hill and then just ride up and down to build strength.

Everett not only exercises his body, but his mind. Since retiring in 1999, he has purchased used textbooks and studied subjects that he has been interested in.

So far, he has worked through textbooks on geology, astronomy, meteorology, biology, physics and anthropology. He even took a geology field trip several summers ago with KU students. Now, he’s learning about evolution and picking up a new language: Spanish.

“Exercise always gives you a good feeling,” he said. “I am just happy to be able to do it at my age.”

Union: Border agents fired on each other

By Bob Christie Associated Press

PHOENIX — The U.S. Border Patrol agent killed last week in a shooting in southern Arizona apparently opened fire on two fellow agents thinking they were armed smugglers and was killed when they returned fire, the head of the Border Patrol agents’ union said Sunday.

The two sets of agents approached an area where a sensor had been activated from different directions early Tuesday and encountered each other in an area of heavy brush, National Border Patrol Council president Ivie George McCubbin said.

Agent Nicholas Ivie apparently opened fire first and wounded one of the other agents but was killed in the return fire.

“I don’t know what it was he saw or heard that triggered this whole event,” McCubbin said.

“Unfortunately it resulted in his death and another agent injured.”

Acting Cochise County Sheriff Rod Rothrock confirmed the scenario but would not say if Ivie was the first to shoot, saying that was up to the federal agencies involved.

The new details add to a FBI statement Friday that the shooting appeared to be a friendly fire incident that involved no one but the agents.

BRIEFLY Pharmacy linked to outbreak issues recall ATLANTA — The pharmacy that distributed a steroid linked to an outbreak of fungal meningitis has issued a voluntary recall of all of its products, calling the move a precautionary measure.

The New England Compounding Center announced the recall Saturday. The company said in a news release that the move was taken out of an abundance of caution because of the risk of contamination. It says there is no indication that any other products have been contaminated.

The Food and Drug Administration had previously told health professionals not to use any products distributed by the center.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention posted updated figures to its website Sunday showing there are 91 confirmed cases of the rare form of fungal meningitis. The outbreak spans nine states and has killed at least seven people.

The states with reported cases are: Florida, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee and Virginia.

Rothko mural defaced at Tate Modern LONDON — A vandal scrawled graffiti on a mural by modern American master Mark Rothko at London’s Tate Modern on Sunday.

The mural, one of Rothko’s Seagram series, was defaced when a visitor to the Tate applied “a small area of black paint with a brush to the painting,” the gallery said.

A photograph posted on Twitter by a gallery visitor showed words, including the name Vladimir, scrawled in the corner of the painting. The gallery, which attracts 5 million visitors a year, was briefly closed Sunday after the incident.

Tate Modern said police were investigating.

$1.4T in states’ pension fights foreshadowed in R.I.

By David Klepper

“

What they did was illegal. We’re deep into a real assault on labor. It worries me that people PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Re- who purport themselves as Democrats do tired social worker Jim Gillis was told his $36,000 this.”

Associated Press

Rhode Island state pension would increase by $1,100 next year to keep up with inflation. But lawmakers suspended annual increases, leaving Gillis wondering how he’ll pay medical bills and whether he’d been betrayed by his former employer.

“When you’re working, you’re told you’ll get certain things, and you retire believing that to be the case,” Gillis said.

He and other retirees are challenging the pension changes in a court battle that’s likely to have national implications as other states follow Rhode Island’s lead.

Cities and states around the country are shoring up battered retirement plans by reducing promised benefits to public workers and retirees. All told, states need $1.4 trillion to

— Bob Walsh, executive director of the National Education Association Rhode Island fulfill their pension obligations. It’s a yawning chasm that threatens to wreck government budgets and prompt tax hikes or deep cuts to education and other programs.

The political and legal fights challenge the clout of public-sector unions and test the venerable idea that while state jobs pay less than privatesector employment, they come with the guarantee of early retirement and generous benefits.

The actions taken by states vary. California limited its annual pension payouts, while Kentucky raised retirement ages and suspended pension increases. Illinois

reduced benefits for new employees and cut back on automatic pension increases. New Jersey last year increased employee retirement contributions and suspended pension increases.

Nowhere have the changes been as sweeping as in Rhode Island, where public sector unions are suing to block an overhaul passed last year. The law raised retirement ages, suspended pension increases for years and created a new benefit plan that combines traditional pensions with something like a 401(k) account.

“This saved $4 billion for the people of Rhode Island over 20 years,”

said state Treasurer Gina Raimondo, a Democrat who crafted the overhaul.

“Rhode Island is leading the way. I expect others to follow, frankly because they have to.”

Public employee unions say Rhode Island is reneging on promises to workers.

“What they did was illegal,” said Bob Walsh, executive director of the National Education Association Rhode Island.

“We’re deep into a real assault on labor. It worries me that people who purport themselves as Democrats do this.”

The court case foreshadows likely battles elsewhere as states grapple with their own pension problems. In the past two years, 10 states suspended or cut retiree pension increases; 13 states now offer hybrid retirement plants that combine pensions with 401(k)-like plans.

“Forty-three states from 2009 to 2011 did something,

but in many cases something was not enough,” said David Draine, a researcher who tracks pension changes at the Pew Center on the States.

States are discovering the political challenge of reining in pensions is only one step in a battle ultimately won or lost in the courts.

A plan to enroll new Louisiana state workers in a 401(k)-like retirement plan is being challenged by retirees. New Hampshire is defending a law that cuts pension benefits and increases employee contributions.

Unions note that states have long neglected to contribute enough to pay for promised benefits. In 2010, 17 states set aside no new money for pension benefits. Kentucky hasn’t made its share of pension contributions since 2004.

In the past decade, Kansas and New Jersey haven’t paid their full shares a single year, and Illinois has done so only once.

SpaceX Dragon capsule Venezuela’s Chavez wins 3rd re-election in tightest race yet launched to space station

By Frank Bajak and Ian James

Associated Press

Associated Press

CAPE CANAVERAL, FLA. — A commercial cargo ship rocketed into orbit Sunday in pursuit of the International Space Station, the first of a dozen supply runs under a megacontract with NASA. It was the second launch of a Dragon capsule to the orbiting lab by the California-based SpaceX company. The first was last spring.

This time was no test flight, however, and the spacecraft carried 1,000 pounds of key science experiments and other precious gear on this truly operational mission.

There was also a personal touch: chocolate-vanilla swirl ice cream tucked in a freezer for the three station residents.

The company’s unmanned Falcon rocket roared into the night sky right on time, putting SpaceX on track to reach the space station Wednesday. The complex was soaring southwest of Tasmania when the Falcon took flight.

Officials declared the launch a success, despite a problem with one of the nine first-stage engines. The rocket put Dragon in its intended orbit, said the billionaire founder and chief executive officer of SpaceX, Elon Musk.

“It’s driving its way to station, so that’s just awesome,” noted SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell.

In more good news, a piece of space junk was no longer threatening the station, and NASA could focus entirely on the delivery mission.

BRIEFLY Pakistan blocks anti-U.S. protest TANK, PAKISTAN — The Pakistani military blocked a convoy carrying thousands of Pakistanis and a small contingent of U.S. anti-war activists from entering a lawless tribal region along the border with Afghanistan on Sunday to protest American drone strikes.

The group, led by cricket star turned politician Imran Khan and his political party, was turned back just miles from the border of South Waziristan. Khan has harshly criticized the Pakistani government’s cooperation with Washington in the fight against Islamist militants.

NASA is counting on private business to restock the space station, now that the shuttles have retired to museums.

The space agency has a $1.6 billion contract with SpaceX for 12 resupply missions.

Especially exciting for NASA is the fact that the Dragon will return twice as much cargo as it took up, including a stockpile of astronauts’ blood and urine samples. The samples — nearly 500 of them — have been stashed in

puts Americans to work.”

The remark was Romney’s latest to cause international offense during a campaign that much of the world is closely monitoring.

The sensitivity reflects a wide understanding that Romney could prevail over President Barack Obama and take over as leader of the world’s top military, economic and diplomatic power. If Romney becomes commander in chief, he could face a testy beginning with Europe’s economic laggards such as Greece, Italy and Spain, whom he has beaten up regularly throughout the campaign.

No one contests that Spain’s situation is dire, its economy in deep recession and unemployment hovering around 25 percent. But Spain’s level of government spending is actually low by European standards, and significantly less than Germany and Scandinavian countries with far healthier economic prospects. Spain’s woes were chiefly caused by the collapse of a property bubble that had fueled more than a decade of booming economic growth.

Spanish reaction to Romney was swift.

“What I see is ignorance of what is reality, but especially of the potential of the Spanish economy,” said Deputy Prime Minister Soraya Saenz de Santamaria.

CARACAS, VENEZUELA — President Hugo Chavez won re-election and a new endorsement of his socialist project Sunday, surviving his closest race yet after a bitter campaign in which the opposition accused him of unfairly using Venezuela’s oil wealth and his near total control of state institutions to his advantage.

Fireworks exploded over downtown Caracas amid a cacophony of horn-honking by elated Chavez supporters who waved flags and jumped for joy outside the presidential palace.

With 90 percent of votes counted, Chavez had more than 54 percent of the vote to 45 percent for challenger Henrique Capriles, an athletic 40-year-old former state governor who unified and energized the opposition while barnstorming across the oil-exporting nation.

But Capriles’ promises to seriously address violent crime that has spun out of control, streamline a patronage-bloated bureaucracy and end rampant corruption proved inadequate against Chavez’s charisma, welloiled political machine and a legacy of putting Venezuela’s poor first with generous social welfare programs.

Chavez will now have a freer hand to push for an even bigger state role in the economy and continue populist programs.

He’s also likely to further limit dissent and deepen friendships with U.S. rivals.

A Capriles victory would have brought a radical foreign policy shift including a halt to preferential oil deals with al-

SUPPORTERS OF VENEZUELA’S PRESIDENT HUGO CHAVEZ cheer after polling stations closed and before any results were made available in Caracas, Venezuela, on Sunday. Venezuela’s electoral council said Sunday that Chavez won re-election, defeating challenger Henrique Capriles. lies such as Cuba, along with a loosening of state economic controls and an increase in private investment.

It was Chavez’s third re-election in nearly 14 years in office. It was also his smallest victory margin. In 2006, he won by 27 percentage points.

Voter turnout was an

impressive 81 percent, compared to 74 percent in 2006. Chavez paid close attention to his militarylike get-out-the-vote organization at the grass roots, stressing its importance at campaign rallies.

The opposition said he unfairly plowed millions in state funds into the effort.

Some best-case election scenarios

EDITORIALS

Hallmark heads-up The Topeka closure announcement should make Lawrence leaders extremely proactive.

I

t’s bad news and good news for Lawrence — and a signal that nothing should be taken for granted in today’s times of extended economic uncertainty and swift technological changes.

The Hallmark Cards plant on McDonald Drive, gracing the entrance to Lawrence from the Kansas Turnpike, has been a cornerstone of the local economy for decades and for a great many years was cited as the largest nongovernment employer in the community.

The Kansas City-based company recently announced it is closing its manufacturing plant in Topeka, and shuffling operations to plants in Lawrence and Leavenworth.

Production of ribbons, bows and stickers will move from Lawrence to Leavenworth, and the Lawrence facility ultimately will become the only Hallmark plant in the U.S. that produces the firm’s signature greeting cards. After all the moves are completed, employment at the Lawrence plant will remain at about 500 people, about the same number employed now. The overall workforce at the three Hallmark operations will shrink from about 1,300 people to 1,000.

Hallmark officials cited the decrease in sales of greeting cards as one principal reason for the consolidation. Much of that decrease probably can be attributed to the growth of free electronic communication via the Internet.

“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,” Donald Hall Jr., Hallmark’s president and CEO, said.

Lawrence and Leavenworth were spared, Hallmark spokesmen said, because costs for insurance and transportation are less than at the Topeka facility. That’s something for community leaders to ponder as they consider property taxes and other issues that affect businesses.

The local facility has not only been a significant part of Lawrence’s business community for a long period of time, it also has provided community leadership within the Chamber of Commerce and other organizations. Lawrence should be relieved and pleased that Hallmark officials have expressed their confidence in the city by transferring operations to Lawrence. Every effort should be made not only to thank the company but to ensure that whenever that decision is reviewed, Hallmark is extremely pleased about the choice.

The Hallmark announcement should signal to Lawrence and Douglas County that there are no guarantees in today’s economy.

It certainly behooves local leaders not to make assumptions that business will continue as usual because the unexpected impacts of technology, a global workforce, and national and international events and policies — on top of decisions made locally — all have a way, eventually, of influencing decisions that have local impacts. Instead of waiting for another shoe to drop, local leaders need to be extremely proactive in trying to improve job creation in the county, in recruiting businesses, in helping existing firms grow and improve their competitive positions — in an increasingly competitive, bottom-line-oriented environment.

Had enough? Not of the candidates, the Congress or election coverage, though who could blame you if you have? Instead: Had enough of the negativism?

Voters on the left have spent the last month moaning about the negative ads underwritten

by Super PACs created by the Citizens United ruling. Voters on the right have spent weeks complaining about the negative portrayal of former Gov. Mitt Romney by what they say is a liberal-leaning news media. But the real disgraces are the negative fusillades being fired by the candidates themselves.

David Shribman dshribman@post-gazette.com

So with just a month of campaigning and two presidential debates remaining, let’s abandon all that and put on rose-colored glasses. Let’s forget the negative images and our darkest forebodings and look for once at bestcase scenarios. They might tell us something important.

They might even, in a political year with few undecided voters, change some minds.

The case for Obama A re-elected Barack Obama would surge with confidence, not the faux selfassurance in which a deeply inexperienced man bathed in 2009, but confidence in the knowledge that his election wasn’t a fluke or a national act of cleansing that voters hoped would wash away centuries of racial oppression and prejudice.

A re-elected President Obama also would feel pressure unusual for a secondterm chief executive, most of whom immediately begin to worry about their place in history. Obama’s place in history was assured on Election Day 2008 — as a pioneer.

Now he has to win a place in history — as a successful president. Big difference.

This is no easy task in any political atmosphere, but it’s especially daunting in today’s poisonous one.

For our purposes, let’s assume Obama’s re-election keeps the Democrats in power in the Senate and the

Republicans in the House. So the capital on Jan. 20, 2013, is riven in two ways — the usual tensions between a president and the Congress and the additional tensions between congressional chambers controlled by rival parties.

A sense of crisis beckons, not only because the country approaches the fabled “fiscal cliff,” but also because Obama’s party seems blind to the coming entitlements crisis — Social Security and Medicare are in deep trouble and unsustainable in current form, despite what the Democrats say — while Republicans have embraced a proposal that the public finds scary and that deals only with Medicare, not Social Security.

Here is where crisis meets opportunity. A re-elected President Obama uses his State of the Union address to offer a grand bargain far more sweeping than the one that fell apart during fevered but fruitless negotiations last summer.

He tells Republicans he’ll put everything on the table, including substantial changes in entitlements, if they’ll put everything on the table, including tax increases.

He promises to be fairminded and says he knows that House Speaker John Boehner will be fair-minded as well. He tells Boehner privately that he’ll quell the catcalls from the left of his party if the speaker quells the demands from the right of his.

To prove his seriousness, Obama quotes Herb Stein, a man who was chairman of

the Council of Economic Advisers under two Republican presidents (Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford), who was a voice favored by the editorial board of The Wall Street Journal and who held an endowed university chair named for the father of the Rev. Pat Robertson. According to Stein’s Law, if something cannot go on forever, it won’t.

The case for Romney The election of Romney represents perhaps the most dramatic shift in power in decades — greater than the transition between Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan 32 years ago, because Carter basically governed as Reagan for the last several months of his administration. And, like Reagan, Romney approaches his challenge with determination but also with an upbeat, conciliatory attitude.

He is a gentleman and he vows to treat his opponents in the capital with chivalry.

This goes a long way in Washington, D.C., as former President George H.W. Bush could tell him. But Romney enters the White House with a burden different from the one that weighed down Obama four years ago.

Romney is more manager than politician — that was evident in his awkward mien and his uncanny inability in recent months to master fundamental political arts, such as the artful dodge and the tactful feint — and it is as a manager rather than as a politician that he proceeds,

and perhaps succeeds, in the White House.

America’s political problem today is at base a management challenge — how to adjudicate between polarized parties and among passionate politicians who see compromise as an indication of powerlessness rather than an act of patriotism. The new president trims some of his jagged political edges — all presidents do so, even Reagan — but holds fast to his core principle, which is that the United States government is poorly managed and that its current condition is insupportable and irresponsible. From that assessment, all things are visible and, perhaps, possible.

Analysis The choice from behind rose-colored glasses remains one between two men of good faith and honor, one with a gift for the inspiring speech, another with a gift for the detailed spreadsheet. Both abjure compromise, but both will have to compromise; the logic of Stein’s Law is too great and the political landscape too complicated to avoid compromise. Both have plausible ways forward but narrow openings to succeed.

In the end, the choice is between two dramatically different conceptions of government — and two dramatically different ways of moving forward.

America needs new emphasis on civility

By Gene A. Budig and Alan Heaps

Civility — respect for the opinions and needs of others — is a requisite for a healthy democracy. Unfortunately, it is in short supply in the United States, and our nation’s leaders deserve a good portion of the blame.

Exhibit one: The 2012 presidential campaign has been ugly on both sides. The numbers tell us that more than 70 percent of the ad money has gone to negative messaging.

In one 14-day period in July, 90 percent of the ads criticized their opponent.

Another set of numbers gives us a related narrative: Americans see the lack of civility and don’t like it. They believe it is hurting the country and the tone is being set by our leaders.

Two-thirds believe that candidates spend more time attacking their opponents than addressing issues; 80 percent are frustrated by the tone of the political discourse; and 64 percent believe the negative campaigns harm the political process. That’s just background. The central points are that almost two-thirds believe this country has a larger civility problem and nearly 70 percent think that politicians have a negative influence on how people get along.

Exhibit two: At the beginning of the school year, the Chicago Public Schools (CPS)

Budig

Heaps

were closed for the first seven days of the academic year. The reason: a teachers’ strike that followed ten months of negotiations between the mayor and the teacher’s union.

To put the magnitude of the work stoppage in perspective, here is more about CPS. It is the nation’s third largest system. It enrolls 350,000 students, employs 26,000 teachers and support staff, and operates 578 schools. Almost 90 percent of the students come from families below the poverty level. The high school graduation rate is 60 percent.

On the National Assessment of Educational Progress test (the nation’s report card), of CPS’s eighth-graders: Only 26 percent scored proficient or better in math; only 23 percent scored proficient or better in reading; and only 7 percent scored proficient or better in science.

The strike received national attention. Politicians at all levels weighed in. Newspapers ran front-page articles and published editorials. The Internet, television and radio covered it extensively. Three stories emerged and were re-

peatedly explored, discussed and analyzed. The strike was a long-anticipated showdown between labor and management. The strike was a test of strength between factions within the school reform movement. The strike was part of the ongoing national battle (with a few interesting twists) between liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans.

Here’s what’s wrong with this picture: Sadly, few in the political, policy or media worlds talked about the tragedy of children, primarily poor children, being locked out of the classroom. The needs of the students were treated with dismissiveness. While the leaders argued about compensation, health benefits, teacher evaluations and job security, students lost precious learning time. Both sides say the lost days will be made up, but no one yet knows how or when.

Coincidentally, on the second day of the strike, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development issued its 2012 Education at a Glance report. (This analyzes and compares educational achievement in approximately 30 countries.)

Here is one of the major findings: “In Italy, Portugal, and the United States, young people from families with low levels of education have the least chance of attaining a higher level of education

than their parents.” In other words, when we fail to serve our students, the chances are that we visit that same failure on their children. In Chicago we may have harmed not one, but two generations.

This lack of civility is hardly new in America. There have been times in our history when elected officials have literally come to blows with one another. But the modern world has altered the dimensions of the problem. And the reason is technology. Lack of civility was once between individuals or among smaller groups. For the most part, it could be contained. Not so anymore. Messages can be sent to millions instantaneously.

Virtually anyone can initiate or receive the information. And anonymity is easily kept.

Many of us were told as children that “sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me.” We should retire this saying. Unless our leaders rein in their rhetoric and start acting with consideration toward others, we run the risk that we will all follow their lead. If that happens, the civility that binds will be replaced with the lack of civility that divides.

RAVENS 9, CHIEFS 6

Boo-boo’d

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

LHS, FSHS both for real Football players for our city’s public high schools have tasted 10 victories six weeks into the season. Not even frequent state champion Lawrence High before the school split into two schools could have figured out a way to do that.

In this, the 16th football season since the split, both Lawrence and Free State look as if they have legitimate shots to contend for a 6A state title.

“If you put these two teams together, that would make for a pretty potent program, but a lot of the guys playing wouldn’t be playing,” Free State coach Bob Lisher said.

Lawrence High coach Dirk Wedd likes the way the split has worked out.

“Oh yeah,” he said. “That was a long time ago. It gives a lot of kids opportunities to play, and obviously the city has accepted both high schools, and I think that’s neat.”

LHS and Free State boast 5-1 records heading into district play, which starts Friday with home games for both schools. LHS faces Leavenworth (3-3), and Free State plays K.C. Wyandotte (5-1).

The next week, LHS plays at Wyandotte, Free State at Leavenworth. The city showdown is at LHS on Oct. 26.

The two teams among those four with the best records in that three-week span advance to the playoffs.

A look at the quarterback position best illustrates the extent of this year’s football depth in Lawrence.

In many years, junior Joe Dineen would rank as the best quarterback in town.

Yet, if the high schools were combined, he would be third on the depth chart, behind seniors Brad Strauss of LHS and Free State teammate Kyle McFarland.

Dineen, by the way, had two interceptions and returned a fumble for a touchdown in Friday’s 28-0 victory against Shawnee Mission East, who has Kansas University commitment Jordan Darling at quarterback.

It was a huge night for Free State coordinator Brett Oberzan, whose defense stopped the run, forced passing situations and applied steady pressure on Darling.

Defensive linemen Riley Buller, Fred Wyatt and Cody Stanclift had big nights.

LHS doesn’t have the size Free State does but has no shortage of skill. In leading the Lions to a 32-15 victory Friday against Shawnee Mission South, Strauss had a season’s worth of highlights and as always credited receivers Drake Hofer, Erick Mayo and Will Thompson, running back Jordan Brown and twoway lineman Kharon Brown, an indefatigable force.

“I don’t think in the 16 years Free State has been in existence both teams have been this strong in the same year,” Wedd said.

The closest: In 2002, LHS finished 8-3, Free State 7-3.

They were a combined 9-3 at this point.

“It’s just nice to see football in Lawrence have two really good teams,” said Lisher, who played and coached at LHS. “It’s fun to get back to that point. It’s been a long process.”

TRAINERS ASSIST KANSAS CITY QUARTERBACK MATT CASSEL (7) against the Ravens. Cassel suffered a head injury in the fourth quarter of the Chiefs’ 9-6 loss on Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.

Chiefs fans jeer injured QB Cassel KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel lay flat on his back in the fourth quarter, staring up at the sky, where just a few hours earlier an airplane towed a banner calling for him to be benched.

This wasn’t how anybody expected his time as Kansas City’s starting quarterback to end.

Cassel was eventually helped to his feet and walked off the field on his own, going up the tunnel and into the

locker room with what the Chiefs described as a head injury. He never returned, leaving Brady Quinn to try to rally Kansas City to a victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

Quinn didn’t have enough time.

He led the Chiefs to a field goal on his only series, but the Chiefs defense couldn’t get the ball back in the closing minutes, allowing the Ravens to hold on for a 9-6 victory.

“If we will play like that go-

ing forward, we give ourselves a chance to win the game,” Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said. “We had a chance in this game. So even though I’m disappointed in the loss, the way the team played, we played much better overall football.”

That wasn’t necessarily the case for Cassel, who threw for just 92 yards and was picked off twice along with being credited for two lost fumbles.

His day finally ended when Ravens defensive tackle Haloti Ngata got to him in the

fourth quarter, hitting him just as he released a completed pass to Jamaal Charles out of the backfield.

Fans have been calling for Cassel to be benched for several weeks, and certainly have been dissatisfied with his performance for longer than that. He was booed during a celebrity softball game across the parking lot at Kauffman Stadium during Major League Baseball’s All-Star festivities.

Ceremony has KU flavor ————

Former Jayhawks Jaynes, Stallworth, Simien enter Hall

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

A blue-chip quarterback at Bonner Springs High School, David Jaynes committed to play football for Bear Bryant’s powerhouse University of Alabama football program in the fall of 1970.

Jaynes changed his mind after Kansas University assistant football coach Terry Donahue invited him to a KU-Kansas State basketball game in Allen Fieldhouse.

“I probably would have been the best third-string quarterback in Alabama history,” Jaynes joked Sunday during his Kansas Sports Hall of Fame induction speech in Wichita.

Jaynes — he was inducted

as a member of the Class of 2012 with KU basketball greats Wayne Simien and Bud Stallworth — instead became one of the best QBs in KU history.

He threw for 34 career touchdowns and 5,132 yards while helping KU land a spot in the 1973 Liberty Bowl.

“I’ve looked at the names of those who are already inducted in this Hall, and the kid from Bonner Springs in me is asking, ‘What am I doing in a group like this?’ This is my day to say ‘Thank you’ to all the people who helped me become what I wanted to become,” said the 59-year-old Jaynes, who is in the real estate business in Los Angeles.

Leavenworth native Simien, 29, was a consen-

sus first-team All-American his senior year (2005) and was also a two-time All-Big 12 first-team pick (2004 and 2005). He was the 2005 Big 12 Player of the Year after averaging 20.3 points and 11.0 rebounds per game. Simien, the 13th-leading scorer and seventh-leading rebounder in KU history and a member of KU’s 2002 and ’03 Final Four teams, had his jersey hung in the fieldhouse rafters in 2011.

“I’m not here because of what I’ve done, but because many people have made sigJim Marchiony/Contributed Photo nificant contributions in my life,” Simien said. “I’ve played FORMER JAYHAWKS, FROM LEFT, BUD for some great coaches and STALLWORTH, David Jaynes and Wayne with some great teammates, Simien pose at induction ceremonies for the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame on Please see HALL, page 3B Sunday in Wichita.

Weis, KU football get back to work

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Injured RB Tony Pierson practiced with KU on Sunday

Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis claims he’s just like everybody else.

He feels better after wins than he does after losses.

That’s why, following Saturday’s 56-16 stinker in Manhattan, Weis hunkered down in his office at the Anderson

Family Football Complex and did not leave for six hours.

“The worse it is, the harder I work,” Weis said.

KU’s first-year head coach spent the majority of that time between 5 and 11 p.m.

Saturday reliving the loss that dropped his Jayhawks to 1-4 overall and 0-2 in Big 12 play. He watched the game

film two times through, each time breaking it down into offensive clips, defensive clips and special-teams clips.

“Normally, I wait ’til Sunday morning to do that,” Weis said. “But I didn’t want to wait ’til Sunday morning because I wanted to see, in detail, what happened.”

What he saw was not much different than he expected

— too many mistakes on offense, too many breakdowns on defense and too much talent on the other sideline.

During Saturday’s postgame meeting with the media, Weis told reporters that the status quo would not be accepted. Sunday, he proved that was not just lip service Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B

Crew draw with Sporting K.C., 1-1 COLUMBUS, OHIO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Eddie Gavenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s header in the first minute of stoppage time gave the Crew a 1-1 draw with Sporting Kansas City on Sunday, salvaging an important point for Columbus as it tries to land a playoff spot.

With 49 points, the Crew are one out of playoff position.

Houston is fifth in the Eastern Conference on 50 points, and each has two games left to play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not satisfied with

one point,â&#x20AC;? Crew defender Julius James said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted the three points, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take it.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still forward progress.â&#x20AC;?

Gaven scored to the near right post off a pass from Emilio Renteria to continue a trend of late dramatics. The Crewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past five winning goals have come in the 86th minute or later. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I made run to the near post, and Emilio made a great pass,â&#x20AC;?

Gaven said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He did all the work. All I had to do was hit it.

AP poll shuffled as losses abound

Sporting Kansas City (17-7-7) took the lead in the 10th minute when C.J. Sapong headed home his own rebound. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We kind of had the game,â&#x20AC;?

KC coach Peter Vermes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being away from home, the significance for them in trying to stay alive for the playoffs, I thought we played pretty well.â&#x20AC;?

That is until Gaven spoiled goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bid for his 15th shutout. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give them too

Vermes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All in it was a good performance by us but we should have closed that game out.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Kansas City has clinched a spot and opened a three-point lead over second-place Chicago in the East but is five back of San Jose for the overall points lead and home-field throughout the postseason.

No. 1 Alabama and No. 2 Oregon held their spots at the top of the rankings. Alabama is a unanimous No. 1 again.

No. 3 South Carolina, off a 35-7 victory against Georgia, moved up three spots. No. 4 Florida jumped six spots after beating LSU 14-6. No. 5 West Virginia moved up three with a 48-45 victory at Texas.

No. 6 Kansas State, No. 7 Notre Dame and No. 8 Ohio State also moved up. LSU dropped five to No. 9 and unbeaten Oregon State is No. 10.

Florida State fell from No. 3 to No. 12 after losing 17-16 on a last-minute touchdown at North Carolina State.

The last time nine ranked teams lost in one week was Oct. 18, 2008.

Moving up Ohio State moved up four spots to No. 8 in the rankings after a 63-38 victory against Nebraska in Columbus, Ohio.

Everybody knows by now the Buckeyes are playing only for pride because of an NCAA postseason ban, one they probably could have avoided if Ohio State officials had self-imposed it last year and not waited for the NCAA to weigh in on the tattoo scandal.

No doubt every Buckeye is now regretting that decision.

In a year when the Big Ten looks down, Ohio State seems capable of going undefeated. No. 25 Michigan is the only other Big Ten team ranked this week.

The Big Ten has said it will present Ohio State â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or Penn State, for that matter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with a Leaders Division trophy if it wins the division.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one more trophy available for Ohio State, though itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a long shot.

The AP has been crowning a national champion since 1936, and the Buckeyes could conceivably finish No. 1 in the media poll, though it would likely take just about every other team losing at least once.

The last sanction-strapped team to make a similar push was 11-0 Auburn in 1993, which finished No. 4.

Moving down Florida State, No. 9 LSU and No. 15 Georgia all took tumbles after spending the whole season ranked in the top seven.

In and out No. 21 Cincinnati (4-0) and No. 22 Texas A&M are ranked for the first time this season, and No. 24 Boise State and No. 25 Michigan are back after falling out earlier.

In between is No. 23 Louisiana Tech, which hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been ranked in the Top 25 since 1999.

Falling out of the rankings after losing were TCU, Nebraska, Northwestern, UCLA and Washington.

TONY STEWART (14) FLIPS OVER as Clint Bowyer (15), Regan Smith (78), Jeff Burton (31), Jimmie Johnson (48), Casey Mears (13), Aric Almirola (43), Dale Earnhardt Jr. (88) and David Ragan (34) crash around him during the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race on Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala.

Kenseth takes Talladega after Stewart sparks pile-up TALLADEGA, ALA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tony Stewart tried to block his way to victory at Talladega Superspeedway.

It backfired, badly.

The â&#x20AC;&#x153;big oneâ&#x20AC;? came on the last lap Sunday, when Stewartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attempt to hold on for the win instead sent his car sailing through the field and triggered a 25-car accident. Daytona 500 winner Matt Kenseth won under caution, and everyone else was left wondering what happened to cause so much carnage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not safe. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bloodthirsty,â&#x20AC;? Dale Earnhardt Jr. said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what people want, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ridiculous.â&#x20AC;?

Stewart took full responsibility for causing the accident. He had charged to the lead on the first lap of a two-lap sprint to the finish, but got too far ahead of the pack to hang on to any drafting partners.

Kenseth was charging on the outside of him, and Michael Waltrip was leading a line of traffic on the inside. Stewart was blocking all over the track and said he mistakenly chopped across the front of Waltripâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car to trigger the accident.

The contact hooked Stewart to send him into a spin, and his car lifted into the air and sailed on its roof and then on its side over several other cars. It created chaos through the pack, which was running three-wide in a frantic dash to the finish.

Jeff Gordon was scored in second-place and Kyle Busch in third, but NASCAR was sorting the final order almost an hour after the finish.

KANSAS CITY WIDE RECEIVER JON BALDWIN (89) TRIES TO CATCH A PASS while covered by Baltimore defensive back Jimmy Smith. The Ravens won, 9-6, Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.

Chiefs CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

The fact that some of them cheered when he got hurt didn’t sit well with the Chiefs.

“It’s 100 percent sickening,” right tackle Eric Winston said. “If he’s not the best quarterback, he’s not the best quarterback, and that’s OK. But he’s a person. And he got knocked out in a game and we’ve got 70,000 people cheering that he got knocked out.”

Jamaal Charles, who had 140 yards rushing in the game, said, “It’s just not right.”

It’s unclear how long Cassel will be out, but at this point every indication is that Quinn will be the starter when the Chiefs head to Tampa Bay next weekend.

Justin Tucker made all three of his field goal attempts for Baltimore (4-1), bailing out an offense that struggled much of the afternoon. Ray Rice ran for 101 yards, but Joe Flacco had just 187 yards passing and was intercepted once.

“They’re a good defense,” Flacco said. “I remember that from two years ago when we came here for the playoffs.

We never really got in a rhythm the first half. The second half, I thought we played pretty good. We just didn’t capitalize in the red zone.”

Kansas City (1-4) spent most of the first half handing off to Charles and backup running back Shaun Draughn, doing ev-

erything in their power to keep from having to make Cassel win the game.

Charles responded most of the first two quarters, routinely gashing the Ravens defense for big gains. He had 125 yards rushing at halftime, more yards than Baltimore had as an offense.

Baltimore took advantage of the Chiefs’ first turnover when Tucker connected from 28 yards out with 1:21 left in the first quarter, but Ryan Succop’s 30-yarder sent the game to halftime tied 3-3.

Kansas City had a chance to pull ahead after Baltimore fumbled the opening kickoff of the second half. Pass interference gave the Chiefs the ball at

the 1-yard line, but Cassel fumbled the snap and Reed recovered it, keeping the game tied.

Tucker added a 26yard field goal moments later, and after Cassel was picked off on a pass that bounced off Bowe’s helmet, Tucker hit again from 39 yards to make it 9-3.

Cassel was hurt midway through the fourth quarter. Quinn entered the game and thought he’d given the Chiefs the lead when he found Dwayne Bowe for a would-be touchdown, but Dexter McCluster was called for pass interference and the Chiefs had to settle for another field goal.

Flacco scrambled for 16 yards on third-and-15 with a couple minutes left in the game, and Rice plunged for another first down with just over a minute remaining to help run out the clock.

“We play a team game.

It’s offense, defense and special teams, and I need all of them clicking to make it happen, and they didn’t click enough to make it happen today,” said Crennel, now 27-45 as an NFL head coach.

“If the defense clicks like it did today, we’ll have a chance.”

Notes: Chiefs LBs Justin Houston and Tamba Hali each had two sacks. ... Kansas City has been outscored 44-6 in the first quarter this season. ...

Quinn was playing for the first time since Dec. 20, 2009, with Cleveland. ...

The Ravens had 298 yards of offense. They’re averaging 310.5 yards in two road games and 457 yards in four home games.

and now I want to be remembered as someone who helped others achieve greatness in all areas of their lives.”

Simien has his own Called to Greatness ministry and also is a volunteer mentor to student-athletes at KU and chaplain for the men’s basketball team.

“By no means was I able to achieve this by myself. I fully believe it’s because I had a number of people who really significantly invested in my life,” Simien said.

Stallworth, 62, on Sunday told the story about driving from his hometown of Hartselle, Ala., to KU for a band camp and, while on the trip, playing pick-up basketball with KU guard Jo Jo White.

“To this day, I am totally indebted to Jo Jo,” Stallworth said. “We stay in touch over all these years, for him taking time to mention to a coach that there is a band camper playing in Robinson Gym that might come to the University of Kansas and help us.”

Coach Ted Owens, on the word of his players, met with Stallworth and offered him a scholarship.

Bud went on to become a two-team all-league selection who ended his career with an 18.1-point scoring average.

His 50 points against Missouri in 1972 rank second on the KU singlegame scoring list.

He was 1972 Big Eight Player of the Year after averaging 25.3 points and 7.7 rebounds a game. He played in the NBA from 1972 to ’77.

“The lesson my parents taught me — that education is the most important thing — has led me to this honor. I thank you for including me among the great athletes, coaches and administrators who are in this Hall,” said Stallworth, who is currently retired after working many years at KU in the department of design and construction management.

Other inductees in the Class of 2012: Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop, Oklahoma State basketball coach Kurt Budke (deceased), Wichita State Olympic track athlete Harold Manning (deceased), K-State basketball player Willie Murrell, Arizona and Texas tennis coach David Snyder and Emporia State softball pitcher Brenda Stolle.

by the way he ran practice. Instead of going through the normal load of film and field work, Weis watched the game tape with the entire team and then switched things up.

“I took everyone that’s gonna be on the team next year, and they practiced,” Weis said. “And anyone that’s not gonna be on the team next year, they ran and lifted.”

Weis told his team exactly what he was doing and why he was doing it, and it was development, not punishment, that he sought with the change of pace.

“You have to do two things here,” he said. “You have to develop your current squad, but you also have to develop your future squad. If you practice everyone who played all the reps in the game (Saturday), then you’re never developing anyone else.”

Included in that idea of dual development is the concept of how to handle the players who are eligible to red-shirt this season. Normally, Weis and his coaches have a pretty good handle on how that will play out after a just few games. But with the

KU soccer ties Deacons J-W Staff Reports

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Caroline Kastor scored her team-leading ninth goal, and senior goalkeeper Kat Liebetrau made three saves as Kansas University played to a 1-1 tie against Wake Forest on Sunday at W. Dennie Spry Stadium.

KU moved to 8-4-2, while the Demon Deacons, ranked 12th in the latest NCAA RPI rankings, moved to 10-3-2.

After trailing for nearly 58 minutes, Kastor broke free down the middle of the field and was found on the end of a long through ball from senior Amy Grow. Kastor outpaced the last remaining Wake Forest defender and juked past a diving goalkeeper to flick in the open-net equalizer in the 73rd min-

way things have gone so far, he ruled nothing out.

“We talk on a weekly basis,” Weis said. “It’s Week 5, but if we believe that Player X can help us for seven games, seven games is a lot of games now. So it’s still not too late to go ahead and get that player into the mix.”

Weis said he would make certain a player did not burn a year for what could be deemed “insignificant playing time.”

As for the overall rebuilding race, Weis said the Jayhawks had cleared the first hurdle of being in each game at halftime.

“Now we have to come

up with a better way to get through the last 30 minutes,” he said. “It’d be easy for me to just say, ‘The players gotta do this, and the players gotta do that,’ but because the players haven’t done it now for multiple years, we, as a coaching staff, have to guide ’em through that, and that’s what I’ll continue to do until I get this thing figured out.”

Pierson just fine There was some good news for the Jayhawks this weekend. Weis learned Sunday that sophomore tailback Tony Pierson was not expected to miss any

time because of an injured elbow that kept him out of the final three quarters Saturday.

“The X-ray was negative,” Weis said. “Now, he had a sore elbow, but the way they were talking to me, I thought for sure we were talking an extended period of time. He actually went out there and practiced some (Sunday). That was a pleasant surprise.”

Through five games, Pierson leads KU in rushing (319 yards on 59 carries) and ranks second on the team with 198 receiving yards on 15 receptions.

He also has scored three touchdowns.

ute. The goal tied her for the conference lead.

The Demon Deacons took a 1-0 lead in the 16th minute when junior forward Katie Stengel collided with KU goalkeeper Kaitlyn Stroud as both were chasing down a loose ball inside the penalty box. Stengel was awarded the penalty kick, which she converted.

Liebetrau replaced Stroud in goal for the Jayhawks in the second period. The Centennial, Colo., native collected three saves in the second half, none bigger than when she preserved the tie in the 80th minute after a strong shot by WF’s Stengel. Liebetrau also withstood 13 Demon Deacon shots in the final 65 minutes.

KU will face Oklahoma at 7 p.m. Friday in Norman, Okla.

Kansas tennis 5-1 at Tribe J-W Staff Reports

WILLIAMSBURG, VA. — Kansas University’s tennis team went 5-1 in singles play on the final day Sunday of the Tribe Invitational.

Senior Victoria Khanevskaya and junior Claire Dreyer each won her singles flight.

Khanevskaya defeated Penn State’s Sarah Henderson, 6-2, 7-6(5), to win the Marion Gengler Flight, while Dreyer cruised past Harvard’s Crystal Yen, 6-2, 6-0, in the finals of the Julie Shiflet Flight.

Both remain undefeated in singles play this season with first-place finishes in their respective draws at the Jayhawk Invitational two weeks ago.

Dreyer also teamed with freshman Anastasija Trubica to win the Michelle O Doubles Flight on Saturday.

Kansas finished the William & Mary-hosted tournament with a combined 19-9 record in singles and doubles play.

Sophomore Maria Belen Ludueña also played in the finals of the Megan Moulton-Levy Flight, but an undisclosed injury forced her to retire two games into the second set after losing the first, 7-5, to Virginia Commonwealth’s Olga Terteac.

Freshman Maria Jose Cardona and junior Haley Fournier each took third place in their singles flights. Fournier routed Melissa Esnal Olguin of Old Dominion, 6-2, 6-0, in the third-place match of the Kristine Kurth Flight, while Cardona needed a third-set tiebreaker to fight off Harvard’s Amanda Li, 1-6, 7-6(5), 10-8 (tiebreaker), in the Lauren Nikolaus Flight.

In the consolation final of the Cherie Dow Flight, junior Paulina Los used a third-set tiebreaker to take down Harvard’s Natalie Blosser, 4-6, 6-4, 10-4 (tiebreaker), en route to a fifth-place finish.

KU will host the Jayhawk Invitational Oct. 19-21 at Jayhawk Tennis Center.

Gilbert 11th; KU men 10th at Brickyard J-W Staff Reports

KANSAS RUNNING BACK TONY PIERSON IS YANKED DOWN by Kansas State defensive end Adam Davis during the first quarter on Saturday at Bill Snyder Family Stadium in Manhattan.

| 3B

MACON, GA. — Chris Gilbert holed a shot from approximately 100 yards out on No. 12, which ignited a stretch of three birdies over his last seven holes to record a final-round 70 and tie for 11th place with a 2-under 214 on the final day of the Brickyard Collegiate on Sunday at Riverside Golf Club.

KU shot a three-round total of 886 and placed 10th in the team race.

Gilbert’s round began with 10 consecutive pars before the senior broke the streak with a bogey on the par-3, 215-yard No. 11. Gilbert appeared to be heading toward back-toback bogeys after hitting it in the hazard on the par-5, 488-yard No. 12, but a clutch wedge shot changed everything.

“He took a drop from the hazard, hit an 8-iron up to about 100 yards and made it from there,” Kansas coach Jamie Bermel said. “He turned a bogey into a birdie. That recharged him a little bit.

He played well. He made

some good up-and-downs, had a few chances and made some putts. Overall, he was just really solid again this week.”

Gilbert carded his sixthstraight round of par or better Sunday, but the rest of the Jayhawks struggled.

Sophomore Dylan McClure and freshman Jackson Foth each shot 3-over 75. Kansas’ fourth score came from Stan Gautier, whose 79 was 10 shots worse than his openinground 69 (-3). After sitting in a tie for second after the first day of the event with an even-par 288, KU fell to 10th in the last round after its second-straight 299.

“We just didn’t play well,” Bermel said. “Our fourth score got way too high the last two days, and it killed us. I don’t know what the problem is. We were in fourth place after the first round and progressively got worse. We need to come out and play with that type of energy and that type of focus every round. It’s just sloppy golf and silly mistakes out there that we have to correct.”

Colts come back, top Packers The Associated Press

Colts 30, Packers 27 INDIANAPOLIS — Andrew Luck capped a second-half comeback by throwing a four-yard touchdown pass to Reggie Wayne with 35 seconds to go that gave Indianapolis a stunning victory over Green Bay on Sunday in the Colts’ first game without coach Chuck Pagano.

Green Bay (2-3) had a chance to force overtime, but Mason Crosby missed a 51-yard field goal with three seconds to go. Luck then took a knee, and time ran out, and the team celebrated. Missing was Pagano, who is in a hospital undergoing treatment for leukemia that was recently diagnosed.

Luck came through with just what Pagano wanted — getting the Colts (2-2) to .500. And they did it despite trailing 21-3 at halftime.

After Adam Vinatieri gave Indy its first lead at 22-21 with a 28-yard field goal, Aaron Rodgers threw an eight-yard TD pass to James Jones to make it 27-22 with 4:30 left before the Colts rallied.

RG3 concussed in loss

Falcons 24, Redskins 17 LANDOVER, MD. — Michael Turner ran 13 yards for the go-ahead score with 2:46 to play, and Atlanta knocked Robert Griffin III out of the game.

The Falcons are 5-0 for the first time in franchise history.

Matt Ryan completed 34 of 52 passes for 345 yards as Atlanta handed Washington (2-3) its eighth consecutive home loss.

Wyllie said Griffin was examined by a neurologist in the locker room before being sent home from the team’s stadium and will be evaluated again today .

NFL rules require a player diagnosed by the team medical staff with a concussion to sit out the rest of the game. The player also can’t return to practice or game action until a team doctor and independent neurologist clear him.

About three hours after the game, Griffin wrote on Twitter: “I’m ok and I think after all the testing I will play next week.”

Polamalu left Pittsburgh’s 16-14 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in the first quarter. He limped off following a fumble by Eagles quarterback Michael Vick. The 2010 NFL Defensive Player of the Year watched the entire second quarter from a seat on the bench and did not move. He was replaced by backup Ryan Mundy.

The Associated Press

Quarterback Robert Griffin III was knocked out of his games because of a head injury Sunday, and Steelers star safety Troy Polamalu limped off the field after aggravating his strained right calf.

Redskins rookie Griffin sustained a “mild concussion,” according to coach Mike Shanahan, when he took a shot to the helmet while scrambling to try to avoid a sack during Washington’s 24-17 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Griffin left the game about 10 minutes in to the second half and did not return. He also was treated for a cut on his chin.

“He wasn’t sure what quarter it was in the third quarter. So at that time, when he wasn’t really sure what the score was, what the quarter was, we knew he had a mild concussion — at least according to the doctors,” Shanahan said.

WASHINGTON’S IAN DESMOND HEADS TO THE BATTER’S BOX during the sixth inning of Game 1 of the National League division baseball series against the Cardinals. The Nationals won, 3-2, Sunday in St. Louis.

NL PLAYOFFS

Nats rally past Cards The Associated Press

Nationals 3, Cardinals 2 ST. LOUIS — Rookies in the postseason, the Washington Nationals played like poised veterans.

The Nationals escaped a bases-loaded jam in the seventh inning, Tyler Moore blooped a twoout, two-run single in the eighth, and Washington beat the defending World Series champion Cardinals on Sunday in an NL playoff opener.

They have just four players with postseason experience on the roster.

But they have the lead.

“Not many people have probably watched too many Nationals games, but we have a great starting rotation and a great bullpen,” said Ian Desmond, who singled for his third hit in the go-ahead rally. “They keep us in the ballgame and some timely hits from this kid, and the rest of the guys coming off the bench, that’s really been the formula.”

The Nationals, who had never come close to making the playoffs since moving from Montreal for the 2005 season, overcame a wild start by 21-game winner Gio Gonzalez. They limited the Cardinals to just three hits.

“All the credit in the world goes to the bullpen,” Gonzalez said. “I’ve been saying it all year. The reason why we’ve been so

successful is these guys come in and shut it down.”

Rookie reliever Ryan Mattheus needed just two pitches to bail out the Nationals in the seventh with St. Louis ahead 2-1. Moore, another rookie, put them ahead soon after that, Tyler Clippard worked around an error in the eighth and Drew Storen saved it with a 1-2-3 ninth.

The NL East champion Nationals led the majors with 98 wins this season, and brought postseason baseball to Washington for the first time since 1933.

“This team is not hanging our heads,” St. Louis starter Adam Wainwright said. “We can come back and win this easily.”

Reds 9, Giants 0 SAN FRANCISCO — Bronson Arroyo retired his first 14 batters and delivered a gem a day after 19-game winner Johnny Cueto went down with a back injury, and Cincinnati beat San Francisco to head home with a 2-0 division series lead.

A pair of Ryans provided the big hits.

Ryan Ludwick homered leading off the second inning for his first career playoff clout and Ryan Hanigan hit a two-run single in the fourth and a late RBI single. Jay Bruce added a two-run double and Joey Votto had three hits.

AL PLAYOFFS

Yanks spank Orioles The Associated Press

Yankees 7, Orioles 2 BALTIMORE — CC Sabathia, Russell Martin and the Yankees crashed a party that was 15 years in the making.

Martin led off the ninth inning with a tiebreaking home run off Jim Johnson, Sabathia turned in a sparkling pitching performance, and the Yankees beat Baltimore Sunday night in the opener of their AL divisional series.

Sabathia allowed two runs and eight hits in 82⁄3 innings to help the Yankees take the edge off the Orioles’ first home playoff game since 1997. The husky left-hander went 0-2 in three starts against Baltimore during the regular season, but in this one he returned to form and improved his lifetime record against the Orioles to 17-4.

Sabathia is 6-1 with the Yankees in the postseason, 4-0 in the division series.

Game 2 will be played tonight.

COPS & COURTS REPORTER Did you grow up watching “Law & Order”? Are you fascinated with crime and court cases? Are you energized as journalist reporting breaking news? If so, you may be the person we’re looking for.

The Lawrence Journal-World is hiring a reporter to cover the crime and court beat, which is essential to our publications. This role requires a talented, curious and motivated reporter who produces a mix of strong dailies, lively enterprise stories and compelling narratives, and someone who can mine court filings and other public records for unexpected stories and use high-profile cases for 1A stories.

This reporter will keep a close eye on police and prosecutors, finding front-page stories in breaking news coverage while looking for emerging trends, systemic problems and human interest stories.

We are seeking a well-rounded reporter with a history of success in digital and print media and the ability to cover the spectrum of public safety topics.

Niece is in abusive relationship Annie’s Mailbox

down the road. They did this because Anna was expecting, but she subsequently miscarried.

Andy’s family is very dysfunctional. They’ve always cleaned up his messes and made excuses for his behavior.

Anna was reared in a loving, normal family atmosphere. I fear that Andy has her so emotionally cowed that she has forgotten her own potential. Do we continue to keep our distance and not interfere, hoping Anna will come to her senses? — Watching

Busy Philipps is ‘Mortified’ Busy Philipps appears on the second season premiere of “The Mortified Sessions” (9 p.m., Sundance). She played one of the most memorable characters on television’s most-beloved canceled series, “Freaks and Geeks.” She was Kim Kelly, a pretty but tough girl with a vulnerable side that made her all the more endearing.

Like the rest of the ensemble cast of “Freaks,” Philipps was a virtual unknown at the time. And like her cast mates — including James Franco, Linda Cardellini, Seth Rogen and Jason Segel — she has been anything but anonymous since. Phillips can now be seen in “Cougar Town” (moving soon to TBS).

For the uninitiated, “Mortified” host Dave Nadelberg sits down with well-known guests and their scrapbooks and memorabilia from childhood and adolescence. He asks them about youthful hopes and dreams, perceptions of the world and themselves, and when, if ever, they knew they were destined for their current careers.

By keeping the focus on childhood embarrassments and mishaps, “Mortified” dwells in the awkward democracy of junior high school, a place where even those future celebrities felt miserable.

For reasons of decorum and security, presidential appearances and state functions can seem choreographed and scripted.

“Secret Service Files: Protecting the President” (8 p.m., National Geographic) shows how scary things can get when state events get out of hand. Agents recall the chaos that threatened President Bill Clinton’s life when he attended a state funeral in Morocco, surrounded by 2 million emotionally distraught bystanders. Or the time that a riot broke out just before an address by President George H.W. Bush in Panama. And the time that a live grenade was thrown in the direction of George W. Bush when he visited Tbilisi, Georgia, in 2005.

Tonight’s season premieres

A honeymoon on hold on “90210” (7 p.m., CW).

Serena among grown-ups on “Gossip Girl” (8 p.m., CW).

Tonight’s other highlights

An exotic animal figures in a gruesome case on “Bones” (7 p.m., Fox).

A new case is a familiar face to Grace on “The Mob Doctor” (8 p.m., Fox).

An apparent overdose on “Major Crimes” (8 p.m., TNT).

Nate keeps track of the group’s movements on “Revolution” (9 p.m., NBC).

“Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” (8 p.m., Travel) takes a look at the seven deadly sins.

BIRTHDAYS

Entertainment reporter Rona Barrett is 76. Actor Paul Hogan is 73. Civil rights activist Rev. Jesse Jackson is 71. Comedian Chevy Chase is 69. Author R.L. Stine is 69. Actress Sigourney Weaver is 63.

Through Tears

Dear Watching: If Andy prevents Anna from getting a job and keeps her isolated from friends and family, it is abuse. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Give Anna the number for the Domestic Violence Hotline (thehotline.org) at 1-800-799-SAFE (1800-799-7233). You also could call and find out what you can do. But please don’t keep your distance. Anna needs to know she can count on her family to be there when she needs them.

For Monday, Oct. 8: This year an innate tension exists between two seemingly opposing interests pulling you in different directions. As a result, your juggling skills become critical. If you are single, this person could become more than just an acquaintance. If you are attached, travel could play a very important role in your year.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Reach out for a key person who has been evasive lately.

If this individual continues in this manner, revamp your approach or simply choose not to deal with him or her. Tonight: Share a different perspective about an investment and/or an expenditure.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You offer a lot. Your creativity might be at a standstill, but this will last for only a short period of time. Tonight: Avoid extremes.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Tension builds. Allow greater give-and-take, and remember to center yourself. Tonight: Whatever works for you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Time works in your favor.

Know that an immediate decision most likely would backfire. Tonight: Get extra R and R. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You benefit from hearing what people around you have to say. You might not be sure as to

Dear Peeved: Obviously, Stan doesn’t want you around when he plays pool. The motive could be completely innocent. He may prefer to have one night with just “the guys,” or he may think your presence will affect his game.

Tonight: Catch up with a friend.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Meet responsibilities head-on. Your willingness to step up to the plate is what identifies you and separates you from others. Tonight: Take the first step in making a dream happen.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Reach out for experts.

Tonight: Listen to passionate music.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Deal with a key person directly who has an impact on you personally and/or professionally.

At times, you might find that your guard goes up when this person shares. Tonight: Togetherness works.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Let others express what they want. By encouraging such exchanges, others will feel more comfortable and be willing to share with you. Tonight: Go with the flow.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Focus on accomplishments and getting a project completed. Funnel your creativity into what you’re doing; it could help you complete and/or add a little more imagination to that project. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Brainstorm and share more with others. At the same time, you do not want to reveal too much about a particular person. Tonight: So what if it is Monday?

Dear Annie: My niece, “Anna,” is married to “Andy.” He is a real loser. Andy was in the military and was discharged early with a supposed disability from a pain in his hip. He refuses to get a job because he’s “disabled.” Yet he plays football and basketball, roughhouses with his cousins, and spends the rest of his time playing video games and watching TV. Andy has Anna brainwashed. She is not allowed to have friends or contact her family. He also doesn’t want her to work. Consequently, they don’t pay their bills.

His parents do. They give Andy money and enable this behavior.

Worse, they put on airs to impress others and trash talk Anna’s family. Meanwhile, Anna’s family provided a home for them with the understanding that the couple would reimburse them

Use scraps to make baby washcloths

T

his month, I bring you a project that I’ve done so many times, I can’t believe I haven’t written about it be-

fore.

Baby washcloths are an ideal scrapbuster. The size can vary, depending on how much fabric you have. You can mix and match fabrics. And they don’t take long at all.

I like to use flannel for the washcloths, at least on one side, because it’s so soft.

Jersey would be another good option. You can use cotton fabric to coordinate with the flannel or jersey.

As I mentioned a couple months ago, I know a lot of people having babies right now. Recently, I was making another hooded baby blanket from that column, when I decided to use the scraps from it to make a couple of matching washcloths.

Voila! Baby gift set.

I was able to make two large washcloths from the leftovers of the baby blanket fabrics, which were 3/4 yard cotton and 3/4 yard flannel.

You can also go with what you have — any size from about 6 inches square to about 10 inches square is a good amount of fabric to work with. The finished size will be a square 1 inch smaller than what you started with.

SUPPLIES ! fabric !"ruler !"scissors and/or rotary cutter !"rotary cutter mat, if using !"straight pins !"coordinating thread !"sewing machine !"iron

Katie Bean/Journal-World Photo

THESE BABY WASHCLOTHS have soft flannel on one side and a cute cotton print on the other. They’re a quick and easy project and can be paired with the hooded baby blanket from a previous column for a handmade baby gift set.

Remnant

REHAB

INSTRUCTIONS 1. Cut two squares of fabric to the same size, from 6 inches square to 10 inches square. A ruler, rotary cutter and rotary cutter mat can help make quick work of this, especially if you’re making a bunch.

2. Lay the fabric right sides together and

KATIE BEAN pin. These are small enough that I just put a couple pins in the middle to keep the fabric from shifting, rather than pinning all around the edges.

3. Divide one side into thirds — you can pin, if needed, or make a mental note. The middle section is the part you’ll leave open for turning. Start at one end of this opening and stitch a 1/2-inch seam around the edges of the washcloth, stopping on the same side you started on with enough space for the turning opening.

4. Press the washcloth, clip the corners (cut off a triangle at each corner, without clipping the stitching, to reduce bulk) and turn right-side out. Press again.

5. Starting at any corner, top stitch around the edges with a 1/4-inch seam.

Press once more, and you’re done.

As you can see, this is pretty basic, but if you make several, it’s an easy gift — and a fun one that lets you play with color and pattern combinations.

Undergraduate research assistant does experiments on the fly (lots of them)

BY ADAM STRUNK

H

ailey Baker breeds flies.

We spend our lives fighting the annoyances, and she breeds them, by the tens of thousands, in a small room in Haworth Hall on the Kansas University campus.

Surrounded by vials filled with the buzzing insects, she goes about her work, methodically sifting through the masses to find the right two.

There’s no mood lighting, no Barry White: “You just put them in a little vial, and they’ll do their thing and give you a lot of fly larvae.”

Baker works as an undergraduate research assistant at KU. Science experiments need flies — Drosophila fruit flies to be specific — and these flies need Baker.

The experiment Baker is helping with, simplified for those who don’t study genetic biology, studies how genes are passed on.

“We focus on flies because a lot of their genes are similar to humans,” she said. “This will give us a better understanding for why, like, certain mutations cause human diseases.”

But before the professor-types get to the information, hundreds of hours of minute, methodical work is involved — work that falls on the shoulders of Baker.

Her job involves three things: breeding flies, dissecting flies and dyeing fly body parts.

She starts by finding the flies that express the right traits or genotypes: These could be flies with long legs or red eyes or curved wings. She then breeds the flies in a vial filed with fly food, and the female lays eggs in the mixture of sugar, cornmeal and yeast. Then it gets tricky.

“The hardest part of it all is timing,” Baker said. “I get really worried I’ll mess up.”

The fly larvae — maggots — must

be monitored. They enter the pupal stage, and once they hatch out two weeks later, there is a time window of 16 hours before they reach sexual maturity and breed. Their breeding throws the entire experiment off because the breeding will not be selective and will skew results.

The moment of truth comes when Baker then dissects the female flies, using a microscope to help her pull out body parts that hold specific gene and protein localization.

She dyes these body parts and looks for color changes showing the gene concentration. No changes mean the experiment failed.

“It’s disappointing when a experiment doesn’t work, but you’ve got to keep doing it until it does work.

But even if what you’re expecting didn’t happen, it’s still good information to know.”

She has been working at this job for about a year. She thinks the experiment has gone through roughly half a million flies.

Baker, a junior at KU, got involved with such work as a freshman curious about a career in research. She doesn’t necessarily know if she still wants to go into research, but she said the job is good for her.

And on the idea of the macabre nature of her work, raising insects only to dissect them a few weeks later and kill them by the thousands: “It bothered me at first, but now I don’t really think about it,” she said.

“It’s a fly. If it were on my head, I would smack it.”

KANSAS UNIVERSITY JUNIOR AND RESEARCH ASSISTANT HAILEY BAKER is pictured Wednesday with a tube containing around 500 fruit flies, which she is using for research purposes. Baker says she mates and selects fruit flies before dissecting them to get a better understanding about gene mutations.

BRING A FALL STAPLE TO THE TABLE

P

umpkins are everywhere in October, and that can include your dinner table with these two inventive pumpkin recipes.

Delicious/

NUTRITIOUS

SARAH HENNING & MEGAN STUKE

Delicious Let me be frank: Even though I’m the one who suggested we do pumpkin for Delicious/Nutritious this month, I am not a big fan.

I am not into pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie, pumpkin in my coffee, or really any of the other incarnations of the ubiquitous October gourd that are floating around all of my usual recipe haunts.

So why in the world would I choose pumpkin, if I don’t even like it? Let’s just say I like a challenge. I wanted to see if I could make a pumpkin dish that even I would like.

I generally want to stay away from traditional pumpkin pie spices, especially when they’re all together. Separately, nutmeg, clove and cinnamon are all excellent spices.

Together, they equal a fall food nightmare.

So, how to use pumpkin in a dish without overloading the senses with that triumvirate of pumpkin spices? I had to think about things I really love, and I kept it simple.

I decided on pumpkin mashed potatoes. You get the creamy, dreamy love of a mashed potato (who doesn’t love them?) and the added bonus of richness of flavor from the pumpkin, not to mention added nutritional value — because much as we love the blessed potato around this house, let’s face it: It doesn’t provide much in the nutrient category.

PUMPKIN MASHED POTATOES 1 pie pumpkin 10 Yukon gold potatoes 1 stick of butter 1/2 cup sour cream 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (I like to grind mine fresh — no comparison) salt and pepper to taste

Katie Bean/Journal-World Photos

DELICIOUS: Megan’s pumpkin mashed potatoes can be served in the hollowed-out bottom of the pumpkin used to make it.

Put a stock pot of water on to boil. Meanwhile, cut your pie pumpkin in half and clean out the seeds and “guts”. (I let my kid do this part.) Pop it in the microwave, 4 minutes per pound. Mine took about 17 minutes to get fully cooked. You want to make sure it’s cooked and really soft or you will get lumpy taters, and nobody wants that.

Peel your potatoes, cut them into quarters, and boil until they’re soft.

When the pumpkin is cool enough to touch, scoop the soft flesh out of the bottom half, leaving the shell intact — you’re going to want it later. You can mutilate the top half all you want.

Put the cooked potatoes and pumpkin in a mixing bowl with the rest of the ingredients, and blend with either a hand masher or a mixer. I like these to be smooth and creamy — whip them into a lightly orange dream.

Serve them in the bottom of the pumpkin to impress your guests.

They’re divine. Seriously. This pumpkin-hater even loved them.

The pumpkin flavor is evident but not overpowering.

The pumpkin adds richness and texture to the taters, but doesn’t bowl you over with that “Oh! Another pumpkin dish!” sort of knock-out punch.

NUTRITIOUS OK, a confession: I have some VERY unhealthy pumpkin recipes in my arsenal. Goodies that are absolutely as delicious as they are perfectly horrible for you.

An example: I have a pumpkin bread recipe that includes a cup of oil, a cup of full-fat coconut milk, shredded coconut AND chocolate chips. It is TO DIE FOR. It’s also good that I only make it once a year, because it would probably kill me if I ate it all the time.

I also have recipes for cookies, brownies and cupcakes, that, while not classified on the same gut-bombing level as the aforementioned pumpkin bread, aren’t exactly good for you.

In fact, when tasked this month with making something using pumpkin, I really wondered if I could make something healthy with pumpkin.

I mean, pumpkin is actually healthy in and of itself.

Half a cup of cooked, pureed pumpkin has just 40 calories to go with five grams of fiber and 300 percent of your daily vitamin A. Therefore, pumpkin is actually good for you (it is a winter squash, after all), but the way I usually make it (and probably you, too) isn’t exactly healthy.

I mean, what goes better than pumpkin and chocolate?

NOTHING.

M ON D AY, OCT OBE R 8, 20 12

But I think I figured out a way to enjoy the pumpkin-chocolate combination in somewhat of a healthy manner. Plus, it’s super easy and makes a good breakfast, snack or dessert.

Inspired by those pumpkin spice lattes that everyone sips starting Sept. 1, I decided to make a spicy pumpkin and chocolate smoothie.

There’s no coffee involved (though you could probably experiment with adding a bit of cold press to this recipe), but it’s creamy, filling and delicious.

Oh, and easy. Much easier than making gutbomb pumpkin bread, in fact.

PUMPKIN SPICE CHOCOLATE SMOOTHIE 1/2 cup pumpkin puree 1 cup almond milk (regular, not unsweetened; vanilla might work) 1 banana 2 tablespoons cocoa powder 1 medjool date (soaked for 15 minute if hard) 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice Splash vanilla

NUTRITIOUS: Sarah’s pumpkin spice chocolate smoothie can be a breakfast, snack or dessert.

Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth and creamy. Add a bit more almond milk if it’s too thick for your blender to turn properly.

Serves 1-2.

BREAKFAST IDEAS Getting children to eat a well-balanced breakfast can be difficult. Here are some tips to help turn breakfast into a quick, delicious and nutritious meal: ! Instead of the same tired toast or bland

bowl of cereal every day, offer a variety of morning meals. Empowering kids with the choice of what they eat at breakfast will make them more apt to cooperate. ! A good source of protein, such as Greek

yogurt, is key when it comes to breakfast. ! Try packing a brown-bag the night before

so your kids can eat on the way to school.

Fruit ranks at the top of the kid-friendly foods list. Slice up some fresh fruits such as strawberries, bananas and apples that kids can easily eat at home or on the go. ! Try setting up a tasting for your kids so

they can try a variety of foods without the pressure of having to finish an entire portion.

Encourage them to talk about what they like best, including taste and texture.

Adults model bad behaviors for teens

Double TAKE

Dear Dr. Wes and Katie: I have a question that may surprise you coming from someone who is 19. Why do teenagers like doing drugs and alcohol? I’ve tried to figure this out since I was about 13, and I still don’t get it. I’ve never seen anything good come from it. Most of my friends use. I’ve had family members with alcohol problems. So can you tell me why this is so appealing?

Katie: While adults might like to think we’re the only generation to risk life, limb and brain cell for momentary highs, adolescence has always brought an avalanche of social stress and biological confusion.

Opportunities to drink and do drugs hit us at a vulnerable stage in our lives. We’re unsure what we’ll see in the black holes that currently conceal our futures, so we either submerge ourselves in the present or try to grow up too quickly. It’s not surprising that scientific and moral reasoning often fail to compete with a teenager’s search for a place — any place — in the world.

The specter of peer influence has not disappeared. While it’s rare for a teenager to shove drugs or alcohol on a reluctant peer, some feel that if they don’t fall in with the partying trend, they’ll be left behind in the social stratosphere. Because the mind is not fully developed until adulthood, teens often have distorted perceptions of reward and penalty. Next to drug-induced highs and high school popularity, the word “responsibility” has become, to some teens, synonymous with “naivety.”

Adolescence is about more than parties and pot: It’s the transition from child to adult, when we begin to distance ourselves from our baby fat and grow toward independence. At least, we try our best.

Sometimes this stage is called “rebellion.”

Teens truly want to be enlightened, respected and mature — but those words

DR. WES CRENSHAW AND KATIE GUYOT are tied up with anticipation for age 21.

On TV, the Internet, in everyday conversation and sometimes at home, young adults are exposed to the idea that adulthood means bars and cold beer and liquor cabinets. Teenagers won’t take adults’ pleas to abstain seriously when their role models don’t follow their own advice. So lead by example. Teenage impulsivity won’t disappear — not with drinking, nor with dating, nor with simply growing up — but young generations won’t start to sober up until older generations take the first step with them.

Dr. Wes: Katie and I found this a surprisingly difficult question, largely because alcohol use is so commonplace now. Marijuana isn’t far behind and may in fact be in the lead among teens. While harder drugs remain a fringe element in teen culture, there’s plenty of prescription abuse going around.

But you know all that. What you really want to hear is why this is so appealing to your peers.

Katie provides a thoughtful answer, though I’ve found in the last few years a

great deal more “shoving” among teens.

For many, the choice to abstain now creates in their peer group something between intolerance and outright rage, and that level of pressure is harder to resist than in past generations.

Yet the real answer to your question lies in how poorly we educate kids about drugs and alcohol. We hurl a lot of propaganda at them, much of it inaccurate.

As but one example, lumping marijuana in with cocaine defies logic and science, so when kids learn to distrust that comparison, they distrust everything else.

Programs like D.A.R.E., “Just Say No,” and their many permutations work just fine … with grade school kids. Fifth-graders will tell you that they always say no to drugs. But by middle school, the real offers start pouring in and all that rigid black and white runs quickly into shades of gray.

In the end, teens use drugs and alcohol because they’ve discovered few good reasons not to. As Katie notes, our society constantly reinforces the incredible joys of substance abuse and then tries to counter that with flaccid scolding. It’s like saying “Hey kids, look how unbelievably fun this is, as long as YOU don’t actually do it.”

There are a lot of good reasons — for adults as well as kids — to not use drugs and alcohol or to consume them in careful moderation. We need to start teaching those reasons at home, up close and personal, but also to remember that kids aren’t going to fully appreciate them until their mid-20s.

But the research shows that what parents teach in this regard with their teens comes back to them as adults. So teach them wisely.

PETS LOOK TO CONNECT After living a long time at shelter, animals can forget how to be companions

BY SARA SHEPHERD

I

n the long rows of dog kennels at the Lawrence Humane Society, T-Bone isn’t especially eye-catching.

He’s not very large or very small — he’s mediumsized. His coat isn’t fluffy or spotted — it’s short and all black. He’s not tough-looking — he’s a Labrador-chow chow mix whose tail can’t seem to decide if it wants to be straight or curly.

But T-Bone’s biggest problem is one that, for many dogs, seems to get worse the longer they stay there.

He’s not very good at puppy dog eyes.

Of all the dogs at the shelter, as of last week, T-Bone has been there the longest. He and the longest resident cat, Eboni, are cases in point for some of the benefits of a low-kill shelter but also some of the challenges when it comes to adoptions.

While the average length of stay for dogs is 20 days, 3-year-old T-Bone has been at the shelter since May 25, when he was surrendered by a guardian. Eboni, a 3-yearold domesticated stray, has been there since April 16.

Lawrence Humane Society director Dori Villalon explains the good news.

The shelter only euthanizes pets that have behavioral or medical problems that make them unadoptable, so TBone is safe from that.

“As long as we can keep him physically and mentally sound, he can stay here until he gets adopted,” Villalon says.

The bad news is that the longer animals stay there, the less adoptable some become.

It’s not that they develop aggression or behavior problems. It’s that, even with a constant flow of volunteers, they seem to forget how to be a companion for a particular person.

Nick Krug/Journal-World Photos

LAWRENCE HUMANE SOCIETY VISITORS, from left, Kailey Willis, Joseph Ramos and Carmen Zhou entertain some of the cats with a laser pointer in a play area Sept. 25.

And shelter employees say that’s one of the most common things adoptive humans seem to look for in a pet — basically, they want the one that comes up to them and makes puppy dog eyes.

“It’s all about that connection,” Villalon says.

BLENDING IN With T-Bone on a leash in the shelter’s exercise area, animal care associate Alyssa Cusick describes him as full of energy — “He loves to run,” she says — yet calm and well-behaved. He’s good with other dogs and can even sit and shake.

Back in his cage, T-Bone runs back and forth, seem-

ingly having even more fun barking with the other dogs in his too-familiar surroundings.

“He shouldn’t want to come back in here,” Villalon says. “He’s a dog that can quickly become at-risk if his behavior escalates.”

While foster care is usually reserved for pets that need special medical or dietary attention, Villalon says it can be an emergency option for dogs like T-Bone who are at risk of developing depression or neurotic behavior (such as pacing their kennels or chewing).

When removed from her cage, Eboni calmly explores her surroundings. She is quick to purr when held and revels in having her tummy scratched.

But being all black, Eboni is not exactly a visual stand-

But she’s also seen animals snap out of it when they find a home, and that was the case with Stoli.

“It was just a matter of two to three days that she was rubbing up on legs and being a happy, healthy cat again,” Snow says. “Because they’re out of their cage, their personality comes flying back.”

out among fellow cats — even with the little Halloween bandanna employees put around her neck to help her look more colorful.

“I think most people are kind of programmed to look at animals of different colors,” Villalon says. “People are naturally drawn to patterns.”

THE RIGHT FIT Not surprisingly, kittens and puppies usually get adopted quickly.

However, Villalon says, older animals aren’t necessarily unpopular.

Many times, their calm demeanor fits exactly what a potential owner is looking for.

A full-time veterinarian — which the shelter added to its staff in July — has been able to not only improve the health level of all pets, but also clean teeth and remove lumps and bumps to help make some of those older animals more attractive, Villalon says.

The vet also has been vaccinating

dogs against rabies, which enabled the shelter to begin its Marathon Mutts volunteer program. Certified volunteers can now take vaccinated dogs off the shelter property and out into the community, where they are around more people and may even get noticed.

Once in a while, Villalon says, people actually request the animal that’s been there the longest.

Emily Snow of Lawrence just adopted a calico cat named Stoli, who had been living at the shelter more than six months. Snow’s parents, who live outside the city limits, needed a few barn cats, so Snow picked out Stoli and two other longtime residents for them.

Snow, a former shelter employee, has seen animals get “cage sour.”

Stoli, for example, wasn’t inviting people to pet her, Snow says. “She’d been there for months and months and months. She was just getting so down that she was no longer acting adoptable.”

A SPECIAL CONNECTION

EBONI, PICTURED SEPT. 25, has been at Lawrence Humane Society since April, longer than any of the other cats currently there.

{

What qualities do you look for in a pet?

“Just something that’s loyal and I can make friends with.”

Sometimes making the connection it takes to get adopted just means waiting for the right person — and what makes that person the one can’t always be explained by us humans.

Beau, a brindle American pit bull terrier mix, had been at the shelter close to a year.

He was adopted once but returned. Shelter employees noticed he began to act depressed and detached.

He was a familiar fixture in the Humane Society’s Adopt-A-Pet weekly ad in the Journal-World, but even when potential adopters took him out to play, he ran around the field by himself, ignoring them, client care associate Ramona Kemberling says.

About a month ago, his soon-tobe owner arrived.

“He actually came right to her out in the field,” Kemberling says. “It was like she was meant to take him home.”

Kemberling tears up when she talks about Beau finally finding his forever home.

“We’re very invested emotionally in these guys,” she says.

DON’T LET STRESS BUST PROGRESS

H

ave you heard anything new lately? Have you been listening to your colleagues and coworkers, to your friends and to your significant other?

If you have been, then you surely know what the latest buzz word on the street is. Yes, it’s that dreaded “S” word.

As in stress. We all have it, and we are all too familiar with it.

Lately, it seems as though everyone I know is using that word an awful lot to describe many different situations and scenarios.

Even my 6-year-old used it recently, albeit incorrectly. “Sit still!” I told him as he was trying to do a handstand in his chair while eating breakfast (yes, really).

And do you know what he said to me?

He said, “I can’t, Mama. I’m trying to get my stress out!”

And while that is funny now, it gave me pause for two distinct reasons.

One, the fact that he knows the word stress at age 6 is a bit disconcerting.

And secondly, he had a valid point. He was trying to move in order to release his energy.

It’s a proven fact that physical activity is a prime factor in stress reduction and tension release. And it’s also a proven fact that too many of the stressed-out people aren’t doing anything about it.

We all know that stress comes in many different ways and outlets and that it often increases right about this time of the year, what with the stores putting up holiday decorations the first week in October and other such nonsense.

Things are getting hectic at home and at work, and as usual there is just no time to get everything done that we

As I See

FIT JENNIFER OSBORN

need to do.

The first thing to become compromised is our eating habits. Healthy and clean eating tend to take a back seat to fast food meals on the run and nutritional nightmares.

The second thing to fall by the wayside is physical activity. Our workouts decrease in time and intensity, and we start to lose all of the ground that we’ve gained. Our endless to-do lists increase, and as a result, that cuts into personal time that had been used to exercise our bodies and our minds.

The worst thing about all of this is that you will lose all of the ground you have gained thus far, and when your stress levels rise, it wreaks havoc with your metabolism.

Stress inhibits your body’s ability to burn carbs, fats and protein effectively.

It can cause an outpouring of the primary stress hormone cortisol, which is key for a normal metabolic rate, proper digestion and absorption of foods. If there are excess amounts, our bodies are likely to break down fat and break down muscle mass. Elevated cortisol levels can affect our thyroid gland, which is essential for keeping your metabolism in line, resulting in fat accumulation and eventual muscle loss.

If you are always stressed out, there is an excellent chance that your efforts in the gym or in your daily workout are not being utilized to their fullest potential, and thus, you are not seeing the results that you are working so hard to achieve.

To make matters worse, chronically elevated cortisol levels are thought to be associated with a host of health problems, such as an accumulation of heartdamaging belly fat, increased ghrelin (the “eat more” hormone), poor sleep, lack of sex drive and poor athletic performance.

Whew. My cortisol levels are shooting up

just from writing that! So, never one to want to leave the party on a down note, here are some very practical ways for us to save our sanity and find some balance. ! Relax. Try meditation, Pilates, yoga or visualization as coping mechanisms for stress. ! Sleep more. I know, I know. But just try to go to bed half an hour earlier than you are now. ! Eat well. Make good choices. If you eat well, you will feel better. I promise. ! Give yourself a “technology timeout” and step away from your phone, your email and your computer. Take a walk, read a book, or simply sit still and breathe. Try to be in the moment. ! Laugh. Humor is underrated. It takes the edge off, and it’s hard to feel stressed out when you are laughing. So grab your best friend, laugh with your children and save time for some fun.

Kitchen 101: How to choose and use the right knife for the job FAMILY FEATURES

G

ood knives are an essential part of any cook’s kitchen. But having a nice set of kitchen knives isn’t enough — you need to know how to use them properly.

Using the right knife for each task helps you prepare ingredients more efficiently, gives your food the appropriate texture and lets you work more safely. The wrong

knife can make food prep slower and messier.

TYPES OF KNIVES These are the basic types of kitchen knives home cooks should have on hand: ! Chef: An essential knife for every kitchen. Chop, slice and dice all fruits, vegetables and meat. ! Utility: An all-purpose, mid-size knife for chopping

and cutting larger fruits and vegetables. A serrated edge is ideal for tomatoes. ! Slicer: Cut clean, even slices of meat with the long blade and pointed tip. ! Bread: The serrated, scalloped edge is perfect for cutting loaves of bread with hard crusts. ! Boning/Filet: Used to trim and carve meats. ! Parer: A small knife that gives you control to trim and slice small fruits and vegetables.

When you get what’s yours, just what exactly do you have?

S

omehow — maybe the election season has something to do with it — this question keeps going through my head: When you get what’s yours, just what exactly do you have?

A lot of the political rhetoric seems to be about who has what and whether they should keep it or share it, whether they deserve it, whether someone else should have at least some of it, whether their having it is fair or unfair, and whether in any sense the people who have stuff can honestly say, “It’s mine! You had nothing to do with it!”

Consider the chair I’m sitting on. I guess it’s mine because I paid for it, I sit on it when I’m at my desk, and if it disappeared without my knowledge, I’d call the police. And, oh yes, I have a desk. I would guess more than half the people in the world don’t have desks, much less quasiergonomic chairs, but I have both.

In fact, I have a lot of stuff. But I keep coming back to this question: In what sense is it mine? I didn’t make any of it.

Well, I do make dinner, but then we eat it and it’s gone. The stuff around me as I’m writing this — I didn’t make any of it.

And who exactly made it anyway? My ergonomic chair was Custom Made for Office Depot. (I know that because I just looked.) So I guess some business made it and sold it to Office Depot.

But this isn’t entirely accurate. Some factory, owned by the business that sold the chair to Office Depot, produced it.

The people who owned the business that owned the factory didn’t make the chair; the people working in the factory did, or at least, some of the people working in the factory made this particular chair.

And we all know that the people whose hands actually operated the machines that were used to make this chair got to see very little of whatever money we paid for it. The people who owned the factory saw a lot more of our money because that’s how capitalism works: Owners provide materials and opportunity for other people to produce stuff that the owners sell for a profit.

I personally have no problem with this unless those owners forget that they didn’t do it on their own. But, unfortunately, they often do. Which leads to the question: In what sense is the factory theirs?

In what sense, given the long-term inevi-

In my young career, my workattire perspective has gone from “naïve and young-looking” to “over-analytical business casual” to “with all due respect, I’m going to wear what I like.”

Finding her work-appropriate style F

or me, growing up and getting a job in a professional environment meant that I would have to change the way I dressed.

Before I graduated from college, I worked nights and weekends at a place that specified a white-and-black dress code but still allowed employees to express creativity with their clothing choices otherwise. I also worked days at a retail store that carried the perceived philosophy of “the funkier, the better.”

A couple months after receiving the honor of starting my career, I begrudgingly took out my eyebrow ring; changed out of my homemade T-shirt; cut my curly, tangled hair; and retired my giant hair bows. In their place, I wore slacks, cardigans and invisible bobby pins.

I survived for a while like this, wearing silk shirts and olive green pants, because that’s what I was supposed to wear. I bought clothes that I didn’t understand simply because they fit into the category of “business casual.”

This didn’t last long. While my young self once thought that I could get away with having an eyebrow ring forever, after sitting in a couple meetings feeling young and inexperienced, I quickly purchased a wardrobe that took away my preferred method of “expressing myself” in an effort to look more like an adult and less like an out-of-place 20-something.

But it just didn’t work for me. As someone who relies heavily on her outward appearance to broadcast her inner values and personality, this new way of dressing

wasn’t sustainable. I needed a balance between “irresponsible college student” and “stuffy business woman.”

In my young career, my work-attire perspective has gone from “naïve and young-looking” to “over-analytical business casual” to “with all due respect, I’m going to wear what I like.”

When shopping, the question has changed from “Do I like these pants?” to “Would a news anchor wear these pants?” to “How do I style these leather pants in a way that gives the illusion of business casual?” From “Do these boots go with this outfit?” to “Can the definition of business casual be stretched in a way that includes boots?” to “Can I wear these vintage boots and still convince people to take me seriously?”

Sure, there’s a degree of appropriateness that one needs to consider before wearing an expressive outfit to work, but I am of the opinion that life’s too short to spend it wearing clothes you’re uncomfortable in.

For some people, this means not being cornered into wearing the latest trends just because magazines tell them to. For others, it means staying away from high heels and blazers. For me, it means transcending the slacks.

Don’t get me wrong — I still subscribe to the rules of business casual (i.e. no short skirts, no visible shoulders, no wrinkles), but I’ve now discovered that I can Mike Yoder/Journal-World Photos still look professional without sacrificing my own style.

At this thought, I sigh a deep breath of relief.

“I

have exciting news!” I exclaimed, settling into my parents’ kitchen with my mom and sister.

“Uh-oh,” Mom said, bracing herself.

“No, not that.” She still hasn’t recovered from our exciting news of October 2002, which manifested itself eight months later in the form of one tremendously sweet, though quite unexpected, Caroline. Nothing has ever been as exciting since then.

But to an entertainment junkie like me, this surprise came close. “We’ve been chosen as a Nielsen Family!”

The Nielsen Company gathers viewer information to help networks determine the advertising value of their programs. I have never felt so influential to pop culture in my life, as our input would help decide which shows stay on the air.

“We have one week to record the shows we watch,” I continued, “so if you have any favorites you want us to mention, let me know.”

Mom thought about this for a moment.

“I assume you already have ‘Modern Family’ covered?” she asked.

“Yep, and we’re going to make sure ‘Duck Dynasty’ gets on the list too,” I added. “Duck Dynasty” follows the Robertson family of Louisiana as they live the good life of multi-millionaire duck call producers. Think Kardashians of the swampland, except hilarious, self-sufficient and familycentered, with awesome hair.

“What about HGTV shows?” Mom asked as she brought up the DVR list on their television screen. “Candice Olson on ‘Divine Design’? And make sure you include ‘Sarah’s House.’ She’s Canadian, though, so it’s pronounced ‘hoose.’”

I had forgotten HGTV was a channel,

but if it makes my mother happy, I am willing to write it down.

“I like Chandler’s new show,” she added. “‘Go On?’” I clarified.

“OK,” she continued. “And don’t forget about USA Network.”

“We’re already adding ‘Psych’ to the list,” I assured her.

“And ‘Burn Notice,’ ‘Suits,’ ‘White Collar’ and ‘Major Crimes’?”

“Um, sure?” I did not realize my parents were such pseudo-sleuths. Nor did I realize USA Network broadcasts other shows besides “Psych” marathons.

“Oh! And please make sure you add Brian Williams,” she implored.

“Mom,” my sister piped up, “I don’t think NBC is going to get rid of ‘Nightly News.’”

As she began listing cancelled shows she’d like to see return, I worried about the amount of television my empty-nester parents watch.

It occurred to me, though, that Mom never mentioned anything about housewives, toddlers or tiaras. And, with that, I again felt secure about my upbringing.

The burden of determining future programming is mighty, but with such television expertise running through my veins, I am certain I am qualified for the task.

There are three basic styles of wiper blades: the hook arm, the pin arm and the bayonet arm.

Install new wiper blades

I

t is a good idea to replace automotive wiper blades in the spring, before the rain hits hard, and again in the fall, when wintery ice and snow is just around the corner.

Step 1: Use the blade manufacturer’s reference guide at the local hardware or automotive store to determine the correct blade size(s). You will need the vehicle make, model and year to facilitate the process.

Step 2: Purchase complete blade assemblies. Skip the urge to save a few dollars by purchasing just the replacement rubber.

Improperly fitted blade rubbers can cause serious damage to the windshield.

Step 3: Access the wiper blades by pulling the wiper arm out, away from the automobile’s windshield, at a 90-degree angle. For some vehicles, it may be necessary to turn the wiper blades on for a moment and stop them in motion, before pulling them away from the windshield.

Step 4: There are three basic styles of wiper blades: the hook arm, the pin arm and the bayonet arm. ! To remove hook-type wiper arms, hold the blade perpendicular to the wiper arm and push the small clip or tab down into the blade assembly. Push the blade assembly down. The hook end of the wiper

arm should break free from the blade, allowing the assembly to be removed. ! For pin-type wiper arms, locate the pin on the side of the wiper arm and press it down with a small flathead screwdriver.

Pull the blade assembly away from the wiper arm. ! For bayonet-type wiper arms, lift the locking lever located at the center of the blade assembly. Slide the blade off the wiper arm.

Step 5: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on the back of the new blade assembly package to install the wiper blades. ! For hook-type wiper arms, hold the blade parallel to the wiper arm and position the hook inside the blade assembly. Push the blade onto the hook until it snaps into place. ! For pin-type wiper arms, locate the mounting hole on the blade assembly and press the assembly onto the pin arm until it locks into place. ! For bayonet-type wiper arms, lift the locking lever on the blade assembly and slide the blade assembly onto the arm until it snaps into place.

Step 6: Test the wipers to assure blades are properly adjusted.

Dorothy’s ruby slippers going to London

W

(AP) — Dorothy’s ruby slippers from “The Wizard of Oz” are leaving Washington on their first international journey to London’s Victoria and Albert Museum.

Judy Garland wore the shoes in the 1939 film in which she played a Kansas farm girl on a magical journey. The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History announced the rare loan of its popular slippers Thursday.

They will be shown with Dorothy’s blue-and-white gingham dress in “Hollywood Costume,” an exhibit opening Oct. 20 in London. Curators say it’s the first time Dorothy’s dress and shoes have been together since the movie was filmed. The dress is part of a private collection.

“Oz” was a movie milestone for its extensive color sequences. To make the slippers, a designer dyed the shoes red and attached netting to cover them with red sequins.

The Smithsonian plans to hold a departure ceremony Tuesday. The slippers will return Nov. 21.
