BIG 12 CONFERENCE

Mizzou exit is hardly a bang ——

After months of rumors, move to SEC anti-climactic

Area centenarians reflect on longevity

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

ONLINE: See the video at WellCommons.com

About 40 people gathered in the dining room at Drury Place at Alvamar last week to celebrate a special occasion: Maxine Summers was turning 100.

“She’s very special to all of us. She’s the best,” Lillian Dewey said. “She’s always smiling.”

Summers also is known for walking laps on the second floor, which can be seen from the first floor.

She keeps track of the laps with pennies that are on a railing.

Sandy Nelson, manager, said jokingly, “Every once in a while we give her speeding tickets.”

The remark caused Summers to smile and laugh. Her advice for longevity: “Never giving it a thought.”

She didn’t want to share her life story, but she did say that the first 50 years were much better than the

last, and that’s because she’s watched so many friends and family die before her.

“It’s really sad,” Summers said.

She made fast friends with Ina Arnett, who moved into Drury Place about two years ago, and Arnett is older than Summers: she’s 102.

“Maxine and I get along real well,” Arnett said.

“We just know each other pretty good and enjoy each other’s company.”

It’s official. The University of Missouri has left the Big 12 for the Southeastern Conference, confirming what many have speculated for months.

The SEC announced the move Sunday, making Missouri the second Big 12 team to join the conference this year, along with Texas A&M. Missouri will begin competing in the SEC next season.

“We came to this decision after careful consideration of the long term best interests of our university,” said Brady J. Deaton, chancellor of Missouri, in a press release. “We believe the Southeastern Conference is an outstanding home for the Mizzou Tigers, and we take great pride in our association with this distinguished league.”

Missouri and Kansas University have been conference members since 1907. Here’s what some Jayhawk fans thought about Missouri’s exit:

Haworth Hall and Robinson Gymnasium.

“They had cockroaches.

They were cold; they were hot.

But you were among friends,” Schild said.

Today, Sunnyside Avenue is the only physical legacy of those yellow barracks. But Schild’s memories are a legacy, too.

This month, a group of senior citizens is exploring those types of memories as part of a storytelling series sponsored by the Lawrence Public Library and Babcock Place. It’s not just about reminiscing, but also about comparing the different ways people remember the

same historical events.

“There are lots of these moments that we experience differently,” said Gayle Sigurdson, a Babcock Place employee who helps facilitate the story series.

“A lot of your values come from those experiences.”

At the group’s first meeting, Pattie Johnston of the Lawrence Public Library asked members to think of the events that made big impressions. Some people named the biggies — Pearl Harbor, 9/11, the JFK assassination.

But many named events that are big in the history books but Please see STORY, page 2A

Brownback sets up meetings across state to discuss child poverty

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Child welfare advocates say they are pleased that Gov. Sam Brownback has initiated meetings to address childhood poverty but are concerned about some earlier Brownback actions.

“We’re delighted to see the governor elevate the conversation,” said Shannon Cotsoradis, president and chief executive officer of Kansas Action for Children.

But Cotsoradis said she is worried about a directive from Brownback to state agencies to reduce Children’s

ings, early childhood education and other services to children and their families, she said. Funding for the CIF comes from payments made to the state from the master tobacco settlement, which in turn goes to programs that serve about 200,000 Kansas children.

meetings, which Brownback has called “town hall meetings,” will have those attending divided into small groups for discussions with a facilitator at each table. Attendees also are being asked to register before attending.

Kari Ann Rinker, state coordinator of Kansas National Organization for Women, said the format and time of the meetings will thwart open dialogue.

“It prevents the expression of legitimate public concerns about the issue of childhood poverty,” she said.

Brownback’s office disagrees. The format allows all participants to be heard and have input, said Brownback’s spokeswoman Sherriene Jones-Sontag.

It is the same format the Brownback administration used for meetings held on Medicaid issues, which Jones-Sontag said received a lot of positive impact.

As far as having the meetings during the day, she said that will give advocacy groups more of an opportunity to participate. Nighttime meetings are more difficult to attend, she said, especially for people who have children.

who grow up in poverty are less likely to succeed in school and later in life,” Brownback said.

Brownback has set up three meetings “to gather insights and strategies to reduce childhood poverty, increase childhood educational outcomes and decrease child abuse and neglect.”

He has put Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services Secretary Robert Siedlecki Jr. in charge of the meetings.

“Every Kansan has a stake in the outcome of this initiative,” Siedlecki said. “I am hoping that everyone concerned about childhood poverty will attend these meetings and participate in these discussions, regardless of their vocation or background,” he said.

But the format and times of the meetings have raised some concerns.

The meetings are from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., which will decrease the chance of people who work during the day to attend.

Missing baby’s family facing sad birthday KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Lisa Irwin’s first birthday, less than a week away, will be “the oh-my-God moment” for the missing baby’s Kansas City family, her grandfather said.

Lisa, whose parents, Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, reported her missing a month ago, turns 1 on Nov. 11. Bradley’s father, David Netz Jr., told The Kansas City Star that the date will be a wrenching milestone for the family.

“That’s gonna be the ohmy-God moment,” said the 48-year-old Netz, weeping.

“I can’t even imagine what that day will be like. What will we do? How will we get through that? I don’t even know how to ask Debbie and Jeremy what we should do or how to help them through that.”

Bradley and Irwin reported Lisa missing from their Kansas City home on Oct. 4. The parents have said they believe the girl, who was then 10 months old, was snatched from her crib while other family members slept.

Police have conducted several searches and cleared about 1,000 leads, but say they have no suspects in the child’s disappearance.

The case has drawn heavy media attention, which Netz said has been very difficult.

“People are judging whether Debbie’s crying enough, or if she’s crying too much, or if her lip curls up in some body

“He was that close to getting called up,” she said. “It made us appreciate things more.”

To that, she’d say a story adds something that can’t

stunted her growth because she was the shortest of her four younger siblings.

“My grandma practically raised me because my mother was working, and she just gave me what I wanted and let me do like I wanted,” she said with a smile. Today, she drinks coffee at every meal and in between.

The Kansas City-area native also fondly recalled riding and taking care of horses and helping her mother with household chores.

She thinks that hard work is one of the reasons for her longevity. She said she got plenty of exercise carrying buckets of water and cleaning barns as a kid, and then she worked in real estate until her mid-80s. She said her late husband tried to get her to retire for many years.

During her life, she said ate healthy and didn’t pick up bad habits.

“I tried to smoke, but it made me sick,” she said with laughter.

She didn’t recall any medical problems except for the time a dog bit her on the neck as a child. “There’s still a scar,” she said, pointing.

Olson said she followed in her mother’s footsteps. She, too, lived to be older than 100. She was a hard worker and saved her money.

“She was a very wise person,” Olson said.

Ekerdt said the advice that’s handed out for longevity is the typical advice you learn in the standard sixthgrade health class: Eat moderately, drink moderately, don’t smoke, wear your seat belt and exercise.

That advice holds as true today as it did 100 years ago.

Some things never change.

84.

So, we are not living that much longer; there are just more people reaching 65, Ekerdt said.

“Without a doubt because of the baby boom, there are more people that will be crossing the line to age 65, and because of that there will be more people living into their 80s and 90s and will become centenarians and supercentenarians,” he said.

A supercentenarian is someone who lives past age 110, and there is a native Kansan, Delma Kollar, who is 114. The oldest person in the world is 115.

Just because they are living longer doesn’t mean they have good health. Ekerdt said they typically have problems with hearing, vision, joints and physical frailty and a majority have cognitive impairment.

“So, they continue to be aging. It’s just that the major diseases did not cause their death. They seem to have escaped these,” he said. This is what intrigues researchers who think genetics play an integral part. “This could be a key to understanding how we might also perhaps evade or delay some of the diseases of aging.” #"#"#

Eudora has its own legendary centenarian, Henrietta Olson, who just turned 107 on Oct. 22.

“Everyone knows her,” Wanda Mull, 86, said during a recent lunch with Olson at Medicalodges. “She’s funny, sharp and a sweet, sweet lady.”

BRIEFLY Meeting to address social services needs Two coalitions are sponsoring town hall meetings across Kansas this month to discuss the effect of future state budget cuts.

One of the four meetings will be in Lawrence, at 5 p.m.

Wednesday in the Carnegie Building, 200 W. Ninth St. The others will be in Salina, Pittsburg and Wichita.

The meetings are being organized by the Big Tent Coalition and Kansans for Quality Communities. The Big Tent Coalition is an association of organizations and individual advocates who believe in enhancing choices for Kansans with disabilities, seniors and people with mental illness.

Kansans for Quality Communities is a coalition of organizations representing education, health care, people with disabilities, and state workers working to keep Kansas communities strong and healthy.

Both coalitions say they represent Kansans who believe that the quality of communities is at risk of being lowered if the state budget is cut any more than it already has been.

The groups are urging legislators to value the quality of services in the state and develop the budget accordingly for 2013 and 2014.

Hikers’ tour plans stop in Lawrence As part of a campaign through Backpacker Maga-

zine to encourage people to get outdoors, a pair of hiking experts will share their tips on how to best explore nature.

Randy and Sheri Propster, a couple that has hiked both the coast-to-coast American Discovery Trail and the Appalachian Trail, will talk about planning a backpacking trip, choosing the right outdoor gear and apparel and being safe.

The free 75-minute seminar will be held at 2 p.m. Nov. 19 at Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, 804 Mass.

The Lawrence talk is one of 68 events held in 30 states as part of Backpacker Magazine’s Get Out More Tour, which intends to inspire more than 55,000 hikers and backpackers to explore the outdoors.

Political crisis grips Greece Greece’s president convened crisis talks between the country’s embattled prime minister and the head of the conservative opposition Sunday in an effort to hammer out a solution on forming an interim government and ending a political crisis that threatens the country’s solvency and cherished eurozone membership.

President Karolos Papoulias hosted the meeting between Prime Minister George Papandreou and the head of the main opposition conservatives, Antonis Samaras, after two days of political wrangling.

The meeting ended after about an hour and a half, but there was no immediate word on the outcome.

Faced with mounting pressure from both the opposition and his own lawmakers, Papandreou has said he will step aside if agreement can be reached on the formation of an interim government that will secure a new European debt deal for Greece and the disbursement of a vital bailout loan installment without which the country will default within weeks.

Greek officials are hoping to have agreed on a new interim government by today, when the country has to attend a meeting of eurozone finance ministers in Brussels.

Man files suit against Washburn, contractor —————

Lawrence 30-year-old says he lost internship, degree chance based on his ADHD

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

A Lawrence man has filed a federal lawsuit against Washburn University in Topeka and a health care contractor at a Kansas prison, alleging he was unfairly dismissed from Washburn’s clinical psychology graduate program and an internship for an incident in-

volving his ADHD medication.

The suit was filed recently on behalf of Ryan Talley, 30. His attorney Tony Shapiro alleged Washburn officials violated the Americans with Disabilities Act because they dismissed Talley based on his ADHD and need to use medication — he was prescribed Adderall — to treat it.

Shapiro also alleged Washburn denied Talley a “reasonable ac-

commodation,” in violation of the act.

“As a result of the plaintiff’s dismissal from Washburn University, the plaintiff has been unable to obtain his degree or his license as a psychologist and unable to pursue a career as a psychologist, and has, therefore, suffered irreparable damage, including past and future earnings, mental anguish and emo-

U.S.: Bomb attacks possible in capital After a weekend of violence and fear, U.S. officials warned Sunday that luxury hotels frequented by foreigners and Nigeria’s elite may be bombed by a radical Muslim sect as the death toll from attacks in the country’s northeast rises to more than 100.

The warning by the U.S. Embassy shows how seriously diplomats take the threat posed by the outlawed Islamist group known locally as Boko Haram, which previously bombed the United Nations headquarters in the capital, Abuja, killing 24.

The unusually specific warning from the U.S. Embassy identified possible targets in Abuja as the Hilton, Nicon Luxury and Sheraton hotels. With popular restaurants and bars, the hotels draw diplomats, politicians and even reformed oil delta militants.

5 killed in home-care facility fire A fire at a California home-care facility for the disabled killed five people, and federal authorities on Sunday were helping local investigators determine the cause of the blaze.

The fire was reported at about 11:45 p.m. Saturday in Marina, a small coastal community in Monterey County, about 100 miles south of San Francisco.

Four bodies were found shortly after the fire, and a fifth body was found by investigators Sunday morning, Marina police Lt. Rick Janicki said.

The cause of the fire hadn’t been determined by Sunday afternoon, but investigators with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were on the scene at the request of Marina fire officials, ATF spokeswoman Donna Sellers said.

Love Where You Live

A coalition of nonprofit organizations in Lawrence is seeking individuals, groups and businesses to adopt low-income Douglas County families for the Christmas holiday.

The agencies are asking for donations of new clothing, toys and other gift items in addition to a gift card for a holiday meal.

The holiday donation drive is called the “Holiday Bureau,” and it involves the following nonprofits: Ballard Center, Penn House, Salvation Army, the East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation (ECKAN) and Douglas County Senior Services.

Last year, these agencies helped 1,170 families.

To qualify, families must be Douglas County residents, provide Social Security cards for all family members, and the primary applicant must provide picture identification.

Rescuers are searching for signs of life amid mud and rubble after a rain-fueled landslide buried homes in northwestern Colombia, killing at least 29 people.

Red Cross rescue director Cesar Uruena says between 20 and 40 people remain missing from Saturday’s landslide in Manizales, 102 miles northwest of the capital, Bogota.

President Juan Manuel Santos said Sunday that 29 bodies have been identified and he sent condolences to the families. The landslide was caused by heavy rains that caused part of a mountain slope to collapse.

Native grass seed in short supply after drought

JESS BURROW, LEFT, AND JAMES PATTERSON LOOK OVER THE DAMAGE CAUSED outside the home of Joe and Mary Reneau when their chimney was toppled by Saturday’s earthquake in Sparks, Okla. They were doing the damage assessment on Sunday.

Big quake follows increase in Oklahoma rumblings

By Justin Juozapavicius

“

We will definitely continue to see aftershocks, as we’ve already seen aftershocks from this one. We SPARKS, OKLA. — Clouds will see aftershocks in the days and weeks to come, of dust belched from the corners of almost every room possibly even months.”

in Joe Reneau’s house as the biggest earthquake in Oklahoma history rocked the twostory building.

A roar that sounded like a jumbo jet filled the air, and Reneau’s red-brick chimney collapsed and fell into the roof above the living room. By the time the shaking stopped, a pantry worth of food had been strewn across the kitchen and shards of glass and pottery covered the floor.

“It was like WHAM!” said Reneau, 75, gesturing with swipes of his arms. “I thought in my mind the house would stand, but then again, maybe not.”

The magnitude 5.6 earthquake and its aftershocks still had residents rattled Sunday.

Two minor injuries were reported from Saturday’s quakes by the Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management, which said neither person was hospitalized. And, aside from a buckled highway and the collapse of a tower on the St. Gregory’s University administration building in Shawnee, no major damage was reported.

But the weekend earthquakes were among the strongest yet in a state that has seen a dramatic, unexplained increase in seismic activity.

Saturday’s earthquakes Oklahoma typically had about 50 earthquakes a year until 2009. Then the number spiked, and 1,047 quakes shook the state last year, prompting researchers to install seismographs in the area. Still, most of the earthquakes have been small.

Saturday night’s big one jolted Oklahoma State University’s stadium shortly after the No. 3 Cowboys defeated No. 17 Kansas State. Fans were still leaving the game.

Six months into his internship on March 22, 2010, a prison guard stopped him and noticed he was bringing his daily dose of medication inside. The guard said he was prohibited from bringing it inside but allowed him to swallow the medication in the guard’s presence.

But Talley then alleged three days later he was reprimanded for the incident by two Correct Care Solutions officials. Then the company

— Paul Earle, a seismologist with the U.S. Geological Survey in Golden, Colo.

“That shook up the place, had a lot of people nervous,” Oklahoma State wide receiver Justin Blackmon said.

The temblor sent Jesse Richards’ wife running outside because she thought their home was going to collapse.

The earthquake centered near their home in Sparks, 44 miles northeast of Oklahoma City, could be felt throughout the state and in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, northern Texas and some parts of Illinois and Wisconsin.

Richards estimated it lasted for as much as a minute.

One of his wife’s cookie jars fell on the floor and shattered, and pictures hanging in their living room were knocked askew.

“We’ve been here 18 years, and it’s getting to be a regular occurrence,” said Richards, 50. But, he added, “I hope I never get used to them.”

More jolts to come?

Geologists now believe a magnitude 4.7 earthquake Saturday morning was a foreshock to the bigger one that followed that night. They recorded at least 10 aftershocks by midmorning Sunday and expected more. Two of the aftershocks, at 4 a.m. and 9 a.m., were big, magnitude 4.0.

“We will definitely continue to see aftershocks, as we’ve already seen aftershocks from this one,” said Paul Earle, a seismologist with the U.S. Geological Survey in Golden, Colo. “We will see aftershocks in the days and weeks to come, possibly even months.”

terminated his internship one day later, and four days later he was dismissed COURTS from the Washburn clinical psychology program.

At two subsequent hearings, his dismissal was not overturned. ! Shapiro argued no one in the hearings directly brought up the March 22 incident, but he alleged Talley had received no prior reprimands from Correct Care Solutions.

“The plaintiff was never informed of any tangible reason for his dismissal,” Shapiro alleged. ! Talley also alleged that for six months he had entered the prison without incident carrying his daily dose of medication, which he said was within the prison’s rules.

He claims he notified proper supervisors at Correct Care Solutions and provided a note about the medication from the Washburn University Student Health Center. ! Talley is seeking damages against Washburn University, its board of regents and

versity in Shawnee, said one of the four towers on its “castle-looking” administration building collapsed in the big earthquake and the other three towers were damaged.

He estimated the towers were about 25 feet tall.

Looking for a cause Scientists are puzzled by the recent seismic activity. It appeared the latest quake occurred on the Wilzetta fault, but researchers may never know for sure. Earthquakes that hit east of the Rocky Mountains are harder to pinpoint because the fault systems are not as well studied as major faults like the San Andreas in California.

Arkansas also has seen a big increase in earthquake activity, which residents have blamed on injection wells. Natural gas companies engaged in hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, use fluid to break apart shale and rock to release natural gas. Injection wells then dispose of the fluid by injecting it back into the ground.

There are 181 injection wells in the Oklahoma county where most of the weekend earthquakes happened, said Matt Skinner, spokesman for the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, which oversees oil and gas production in the state and intrastate transportation pipelines.

But natural gas companies claim there is no proof of a connection between injection wells and earthquakes, and a study released earlier this year by an Oklahoma Geological Survey seismologist seems to back that up.

Correct Care Solutions, and is also asking for reinstatement into the program.

Elinor Schroeder, a Kansas University law professor who studies disability law, said that in many education cases, courts have held ADHD to be a disability and that Congress in 2008 changed the law that made it easier for plaintiffs in those cases. But she also said courts always look at an individual person and the effect the condition has on the person’s life and ability to function.

“That would be the question. Can they reasonably accommodate him without altering the correctional facility’s function?” Schroeder said.

Shapiro, of Leawood, declined to comment on the case last week. Amanda Hughes, a Washburn spokeswoman, said the university’s legal counsel had no comment. According to federal court records last week, U.S. District Judge Carlos Murguia had not yet set any hearings in the case.

WICHITA — Drought across much of the Midwest has battered this fall’s harvest of native grass seeds, creating some shortages and higher prices for many varieties commonly used in Conservation Reserve Program acres or for roadside reseeding projects, growers said.

The extent of the seed shortages for the native grasses depends on the severity of the drought itself.

Growers in Oklahoma, Texas and southern Kansas were harder hit than those producers in more northerly parts of Kansas.

Native grass seeds are typically harvested in September and October. They are then dried, cleaned and processed in November and December for spring planting.

“Certain varieties will be in short supply, but the overall basic species of grass should be available,” said Dennis Lutgen, one of the owners of Star Seed, Inc., an Osborne, Kan.-based supplier that has 2,700 acres of native grass production contracted with growers in north-central Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri.

Lutgen expected native grass seed prices to be anywhere from 20 to 40 percent higher due to fewer pounds harvested per acre because of limited rainfall and competition for seed production acres from competing farm crops.

At Sharp Bros. Seed Supply in Healy, Kan., salesman Mark Jensen said this year’s native grass harvest is down 30 to 40 percent from normal. Some native grasses such as buffalograss are already in short supply. Prices have increased somewhat, but he said the

Growers in Oklahoma, Texas and southern Kansas were harder hit than those producers in more northerly parts of Kansas. market is not yet settled at this point and they could be up quite a bit before the main planting time comes in the spring.

He acknowledged many producers opted to bale their grass as hay rather than harvest for seed because of record high hay prices.

“When talking native grass, that can be true one out of every three years,” Jensen said. “It is not like this is some apocalyptic thing we haven’t seen before.”

Prices at the Feyh Farm Seed. Co. have already gone up 25 percent in the past couple of months, and owner Richard Feyh said he may have to raise them more if he has to go out in the market and buy seed to replace some of the grasses he grows. He said production of most varieties of grasses were significantly lower.

His harvest of some native grasses like the big bluestem, indiangrass, blue grama were half of normal.

“At this point some things will run out and get substituted with something else, if it is available,” Feyh said.

“Nobody knows for sure what the demand will be exactly.”

In extreme drought areas like Oklahoma and Texas, growers were even more concerned about native grass seed supplies.

Nudists CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

of which the local group is a chapter.

There’s even an etiquette sheet for the 100 or so chapters — with more than 10,000 members — scattered across the country.

Motivations for being a nudist differ in the local group. Some say it’s about promoting a healthy body image. For others, like Jean, a 30-year-old area woman who attends with her husband, it’s just a laid-back, social experience.

“For us, it’s more of a relaxation,” said Jean, who was originally skeptical when her husband first convinced her to attend a nudist event seven years ago. “Everyone’s friendly.”

And the group doesn’t necessarily have an agenda to push, Partin said.

“It’s not a political cause,” said Partin, though the members do work at educating the public on nudism when they can.

Mike, one of the senior members of the group, said he’s often surprised when others have a difficult time understanding the group or their motivations for being nudists.

“It’s just fun and pleasant, and don’t deny yourself,” he said.

Our street sign reads that the street we live on is “Bluestem Dr.” There is also a sign that says “Bluestem Ct.” My brother, in Las Cruces, said he’d found out that it was “Blue Stem.” Recently, I applied for something, and when I told the person our address was the first spelling, the computer wouldn’t accept that spelling, though it would if it was separated into two separate words. Which is the correct spelling, and if the signs are incorrect, will they be replaced?

While Webster’s Dictionary spells it “Bluestem,” other reputable dictionaries split it into two words. It appears both spellings are correct.

Thousands protest at White House over pipeline

By Stacy A. Anderson Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Thousands of protesters gathered in Lafayette Square across from the White House on Sunday to oppose a plan for a transnational oil pipeline they fear could harm the environment.

At one point, the crowd linked hands to surround the White House, keeping up pressure on President Barack Obama as his administration decides whether to approve the massive Keystone XL project.

Demonstrators chanted “yes we can, stop the pipeline,” while other protesters carried a plastic tube simulating the pipeline that would run 1,700 miles through six states. The protest drew support from actor Mark Ruffalo, Presidential Medal of Freedom winner John Adams and NASA scientist James Hansen, each of whom spoke to the crowd.

The proposed pipeline by developer TransCanada would carry oil derived from tar sands in Alberta, Canada, to refineries in Houston and Port Arthur, Texas. Opponents say it would bring “dirty oil” that requires huge amounts of energy to extract and could cause an ecological disaster in case of a spill. They are calling on Obama to block the $7 billion project, which is currently being reviewed by the State Department.

Rice: Iran government has ‘no legitimacy left’ WASHINGTON — Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says the U.S. should consider even tougher penalties against Iran’s government and “be doing everything we can to bring it down.”

Rice tells ABC’s “This Week” that the U.S. should never take the option of military force off the table when it comes to dealing with Iran.

She says the current Iranian government is trying Rice to obtain a nuclear weapon and has repressed its own people. Rice says “the regime has absolutely no legitimacy left.”

Diplomats have told The Associated Press that the U.N. atomic agency plans to disclose intelligence this coming week suggesting that Iran made computer models of a nuclear warhead.

Iran says its nuclear program is only for peaceful aims such as energy production.

DEMONSTRATORS MARCH WITH A REPLICA OF A PIPELINE during a protest to demand a stop to the Keystone XL tar sands oil pipeline on Sunday outside the White House in Washington.

Obama missed most of the protest while he played golf at Fort Belvoir in Virginia during the afternoon.

Dan Quigley, a freshman at St. Michael’s College in Colchester, Vt., traveled by bus with about 40 students to attend the protest. The 19-year-old said the pipeline could have an adverse effect on greenhouse gases and pose a hazard to water supplies.

“It’s putting a lot of time and effort into something

that’s pulling us into a wrong direction,” he said. “If we are going to do anything this large scale it has to be something that’s proactive for helping the environment.”

TransCanada spokesman James Millar said the pipeline would help reduce American dependence on oil from the Middle East and Venezuela while creating thousands of new construction and manufacturing jobs.

“Killing Keystone just leads to more of the same

— hundreds of oil tankers shipping millions of barrels of higher priced oil across our oceans to American shores,” Millar said in a statement.

Bill McKibben, founder of the climate safety grassroots movement 350.org, said demonstrators hoped Obama would live up to the image that helped him win election in 2008.

“He’s completely capable of doing the right thing,” McKibben said.

The Rev. Billy Graham, America’s most famous evangelist, turns 93

By Tom Breen Associated Press

RALEIGH, N.C. — For the Rev. Billy Graham, America’s most famous evangelist across a career that lasted some six decades, the prospect of old age and death was for a long time something he tried not to think about, despite his convictions about the eternity that awaits human beings.

“I fought growing old in every way,” Graham, who turns 93 today, writes in the newly published “Nearing Home,” a book that ranges from Scripture quotations about the end of life to brass tacks advice on financial planning.

“I faithfully exercised and was careful to pace myself as I began to feel the grasp of Old Man Time. This was not a transition that I welcomed, and I began to dread what I knew would follow.”

Graham’s book, his 30th, comes not only as he reaches another year, but as America’s

huge baby boom generation moves into old age, its senior members now eligible for Social Security and Graham retirement.

And although in recent years Graham has stepped away from active public ministry, his willingness to be frank about the trials as well as the pleasures of growing old may still have an effect on the millions of Americans whose lives coincided with his time as the country’s most famous preacher.

“I find that, talking to students and a lot of younger people, many of them don’t know who Billy Graham is,” said William Martin, author of “A Prophet With Honor: The Billy Graham Story” and a professor at Rice University. “But the people who will be most interested in this are older, and they do remember

and adore Billy Graham.”

Graham has said he wants to preach one last sermon before he dies, and while the new book is not quite that, it has a similar set of themes.

Pondering Bible passages on aging and death, exhorting his readers to make sensible changes in their lives (“Take full advantage of your company’s retirement plan, and borrow from it only in an extreme emergency”) in downto-earth language, Graham’s ultimate focus is always on Jesus Christ.

“We were not meant for this world alone,” he writes.

“We were meant for Heaven, our final home.”

All together, it’s a set of advice that youth-fixated boomers might not be immediately eager to hear, but coming from Graham it may have more influence. After all, Graham first rose to national prominence with a huge Los Angeles revival in 1949, just as the first boomers were old enough to notice.

WASHINGTON Cain’s rise as a presidential contender was supposed to prove that race didn’t matter in the Republican Party.

Cain is fast making it the only thing that does.

The black conservative is trying to navigate around allegations that he sexually harassed at least three women, implying that the accusations surfaced because he is black.

Hours after the claims were reported, Cain’s supporters branded his Cain trouble a “high-tech lynching.” That’s the term coined 20 years ago by another black conservative, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, after his confirmation hearings for the court were rocked by allegations of sexual harassment.

Cain’s supporters have pinned blame on a white GOP presidential rival, on liberals afraid of a “strong black conservative” and on mainstream media interested in “guilty until proven innocent.” But by playing the race card with the Thomas precedent, his backers belied the “post-racial” America that President Barack Obama was said to have brought about in the United States — and that they, too, promote.

It’s not a post-racial world, “it’s a partisan world,” said Merle Black, an Emory University political science professor and author of “The Rise of Southern Republicans.”

Cain’s success in Republican straw polls was considered by many, especially black conservatives, proof that America was finally ready to consider candidates according to ideas, not race.

Obama was elected the nation’s first black president in 2008 behind a strong vote from minorities, liberals and independents. Few of them are affiliated with the GOP, the party of Abraham Lincoln that lost favor with minority voters behind its 1960s “Southern strategy” of wooing white voters who were unhappy over civil rights legislation.

The GOP is eyeing blacks with new appeal, as evidenced by the rise of conservatives such as Cain; two former secretaries of State, Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice; former Rep. J.C. Watts of Oklahoma; and current Reps. Allen West of Florida and Tim Scott of

— Condoleezza Rice, former secretary of state, on Cain implying that accusations toward him of sexual harassment surfaced because he is black South Carolina.

Blacks, in turn, are intrigued by conservative positions on gun rights, abortion and gay marriage, as well as disdain for tax increases.

Conservatives and the current force in Republican politics, the tea party supporters, say this shows there is no bigotry on their end of the political spectrum.

“It’s a new world,” said Republican political operative Warren Tompkins of South Carolina, where the first shots of the Civil War were fired and where Republicans voted against a son of legendary Sen. Strom Thurmond in a GOP primary and sent Scott to Congress. “It’s not about the package, it’s about the message.”

But that doesn’t mean that talking about race for political advantage is passé.

Conservatives immediately turned the narrative that way once the Cain allegations became public. “Just like they did to Clarence Thomas, they are engaging in a ‘high-tech lynching’ by smearing Herman Cain’s reputation and character,” Jordan Gehrke of AmericansforHermanCain. com wrote in a fundraising appeal.

Not everyone on the Republican side appreciates the tactic.

“I think we need to get past the language of race on both sides,” Rice, who succeeded Powell as President George W. Bush’s secretary of state, told Sean Hannity of Fox News in an interview Tuesday.

Black conservative commentator Armstrong Williams, who worked for Thomas when he headed the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, said some Republicans are put off by Cain’s claims of racism because they hate it when they are accused of being racist.

“Why is the first response from some conservatives that this must have to do with Cain’s race? That makes them guilty of the same racebaiting we accuse Democrats of,” Williams said.

U.S. wealth gap between young, old widest ever The typical U.S. household headed by a person age 65 or older has a net worth 47 times greater than WASHINGTON — The a household headed by someone under 35, accordwealth gap between young- ing to an analysis of census data.

By Hope Yen

Associated Press

er and older Americans has stretched to the widest on record, worsened by a prolonged economic downturn that has wiped out job opportunities for young adults and saddled them with housing and college debt.

The typical U.S. household headed by a person age 65 or older has a net worth 47 times greater than a household headed by someone under 35, according to an analysis of census data released today.

While people typically accumulate assets as they age, this wealth gap is now more than double what it was in 2005 and nearly five times the 10-to-1 disparity a quarter-century ago, after adjusting for inflation.

The analysis reflects the impact of the economic

downturn, which has hit young adults particularly hard. More are pursuing college or advanced degrees, taking on debt as they wait for the job market to recover.

Others are struggling to pay mortgage costs on homes now worth less than when they were bought in the housing boom.

The report, coming out before the Nov. 23 deadline for a special congressional committee to propose $1.2 trillion in budget cuts over 10 years, casts a spotlight on a government safety net that has buoyed older Americans on Social Security and Medicare amid wider cuts to education and other programs, including cash assistance for poor families.

“It makes us wonder

whether the extraordinary amount of resources we spend on retirees and their health care should be at least partially reallocated to those who are hurting worse than them,” said Harry Holzer, a labor economist and public policy professor at Georgetown University who called the magnitude of the wealth gap “striking.”

The median net worth of households headed by someone 65 or older was $170,494.

That is 42 percent more than in 1984, when the Census Bureau first began measuring wealth broken down by age.

The median net worth for the younger-age households was $3,662, down by 68 percent from a quarter-century ago, according to the analysis by the Pew Research Center.

Net worth includes the value of a person’s home, possessions and savings accumulated over the years, including stocks, bank accounts, real estate, cars, boats or other property, minus any debt such as mortgages, college loans and credit card bills.

Older Americans tend to hold more net worth because they are more likely to have paid off their mortgages and built up more savings from salary, stocks and other investments over time. The median is the midpoint, and thus refers to a typical household.

The 47-to-1 wealth gap between old and young is believed by demographers to be the highest ever, even predating government records.

In all, 37 percent of younger-age households have a net worth of zero or less, nearly double the share in 1984. But among households headed by a person 65 or older, the percentage in that category has been largely unchanged at 8 percent.

SURVEY

Sexual harassment pervasive in grades 7-12

By David Crary Associated Press Hassan Ammar/AP Photo

A CROWD OF MUSLIM PILGRIMS make their way to throw cast stones at a pillar, symbolizing the stoning of Satan, in a ritual called “Jamarat,” the last rite of the annual hajj, on Sunday in Mina near the Saudi holy city of Mecca, Saudi Arabia. The annual Islamic pilgrimage draws millions of visitors each year, making it the largest yearly gathering of people in the world. It is one of the most dangerous stages of the hajj, with the press of people around the pillars creating the risk of a stampede. Saudi authorities said Sunday that more than 2.9 million Muslims were performing the hajj this year.

Analysis: Is student loan, education bubble next?

By Justin Pope Associated Press

First the dot.coms popped, then mortgages. Are student loans and higher education the next bubble, the latest investment craze inflating on borrowed money and misplaced faith it can never go bad?

Some experts have raised the possibility. Last summer, Moody’s Analytics pronounced fears of an education spending bubble “not without merit.” Last spring, investor and PayPal founder Peter Thiel called attention to his claims of an education bubble by awarding two dozen young entrepreneurs $100,000 each NOT to attend college.

Recent weeks have seen another spate of “bubble” headlines — student loan defaults up, tuition rising another 8.3 percent this year and finally, out Thursday, a new report estimating that average student debt for borrowers from the college class of 2010 has passed $25,000. And all that on top of a multiyear slump in the job market for new college graduates.

So do those who warn of a bubble have a case?

The hard part, of course, is that a bubble is never apparent until it bursts. But the short answer is this: There are worrisome trends. A degree is an asset whose value can change over time. Borrowing to pay for it is risky, and borrowing is way up. The stakes are high. You can usually walk away from a house.

Not so a student loan, which can’t even be discharged in bankruptcy.

But there are also important differences between a potential “student loan bubble” and an “education bubble.” Furthermore, many economists think the whole concept of a bubble is a misleading way to think about what’s happening, and may actually distract from the real problems. College affordability is a serious issue, but it’s a different one.

Borrowing for college and borrowing for, say, a house, are fundamentally different in important ways.

To be sure, there are some classic bubble warning signs: ! Everybody wants in.

The idea that higher education is the only way to get ahead has become widely held. College enrollment has surged one-third in a de-

cade. With rising demand, college tuition and fees have more than doubled over that time, outstripping inflation in every other major sector of the economy — energy, health care and housing, even when housing was bubbling itself. !" Those bills are paid with borrowed money. The volume of outstanding student loans is rising rapidly and now exceeds credit card debt, though recent reports of it crossing $1 trillion may be premature. Moody’s Analytics puts the number at about $750 billion. But while credit card debt is declining, student loan debt keeps going up. ! Just like housing, many student loans were made with little or no research into whether borrowers were fit.

Federal Stafford loans are basically automatic for college students, and government backing for other types of loans gave other student lenders little reason to be picky. ! Defaults on federal student loans jumped from 7 percent to 8.8 percent in the most recent fiscal year. That measures just recent borrowers who were already behind within two years of their first payments coming due.

Those numbers are all alarming. But putting them in context requires thinking separately about the ideas of a “student loan bubble” and an “education bubble.”

First, one thing that’s important about the possible student loan bubble is that it poses much less of a threat than housing debt did to drag down the entire economy. Yes, many individual borrowers may find themselves in trouble. But total student loans probably amount to less than 10 percent of outstanding mortgages. More importantly, unlike mortgages, Wall Street isn’t knee-deep in securities comprised of bundled student loans, as it was with mortgages. (It also helps that it’s also harder to speculate in student loans; an investor can flip a house, but not a brain.)

The other big difference with student loans is the dominant role the federal government has assumed in the market in the last few years: It accounts for roughly 85 percent of student debt.

NEW YORK — It can be a malicious rumor whispered in the hallway, a lewd photo arriving by cellphone, hands groping where they shouldn’t.

Added up, it’s an epidemic — student-on-student sexual harassment that is pervasive in America’s middle schools and high schools.

During the 2010-11 school year, 48 percent of students in grades 7-12 experienced some form of sexual harassment in person or electronically via texting, email and social media, according to a major national survey being released today by the American Association of University Women.

The harassers often thought they were being funny, but the consequences for their targets can be wrenching, according to the survey. Nearly a third of the victims said the harassment made them feel sick to their stomach, affected their study habits or fueled reluctance to go to school at all.

“It’s reached a level where it’s almost a normal part of the school day,” said one of the report’s co-authors, AAUW director of research Catherine Hill. “It’s somewhat of a vicious cycle. The kids who are harassers often have been harassed themselves.”

The survey, conducted in May and June, asked 1,002

girls and 963 boys from public and private schools nationwide whether they had experienced any of various forms of sexual harassment.

These included having someone make unwelcome sexual comments about them, being called gay or lesbian in a negative way, being touched in an unwelcome sexual way, being shown sexual pictures they didn’t want to see and being the subject of unwelcome sexual rumors.

The survey quoted one ninth-grade girl as saying she was called a whore “because I have many friends that are boys.” A 12th-grade boy said schoolmates circulated an image showing his face attached to an animal having sex.

In all, 56 percent of the girls and 40 percent of the boys said they had experienced at least one incident of sexual harassment during the school year.

After being harassed, half of the targeted students did nothing about it. Of the rest, some talked to parents or friends, but only 9 percent reported the incident to a teacher, guidance counselor or other adult at school, according to the survey.

Reasons for not reporting included doubts it would have any impact, fears of making the situation worse, and concerns about the staff member’s reaction.

The report comes at a time

when the problem of bullying at schools is in the spotlight, in part because of several recent suicides of beleaguered students.

The AAUW report observes that sexual harassment and bullying can sometimes overlap, such as the taunting of youths who are perceived to be gay or lesbian, but it says there are important distinctions. For example, there are some state laws against bullying, but serious sexual harassment — at a level which interferes with a student’s education— is prohibited under the federal gender-equality legislation known as Title IX.

“Too often, the more comfortable term bullying is used to describe sexual harassment, obscuring the role of gender and sex in these incidents,” the report says.

“Schools are likely to promote bullying prevention while ignoring or downplaying sexual harassment.”

Fatima Goss Graves, a vice president of the National Women’s Law Center in Washington, said the ultimate goal should be to deter hurtful student interactions however they are defined.

“Schools get too caught up in the label,” she said. “If it’s the sort of conduct that’s interfering with a student’s performance, it ought to be stopped.”

The survey asked students for suggestions on how to reduce sexual harassment at their schools. More than half favored systematic punishments for harassers and said there should be a mechanism for reporting harassment anonymously.

The AAUW report said all schools should create a sexual-harassment policy and make sure it is publicized and enforced. It said schools must ensure that students are educated about what their rights are under Title IX, with special attention paid to encouraging girls to respond assertively to harassment since they are targeted more often than boys.

Occupy protests inspire T-shirts, trademark bids

By Paul Elias Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — The revolution will be trademarked and put on T-shirts if an increasing number of entrepreneurs succeed in their attempts to profit from the Occupy demonstrations.

A few T-shirts began to appear several days after the first protest began on Sept.

17 with a march through the streets of lower Manhattan.

Now, T-shirts, coffee mugs and other merchandise emblazoned with Occupy locations and slogans are being offered online and amid the camp sites that have sprung up in cities across the country. A number of merchandise vendors, clothing designers and others are making plans to market a wide-variety of goods for a wide-variety of reasons even as some protesters decry the business plans as directly counter to the demonstrations’ goals.

In recent weeks, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has received a spate of applications from enterprising merchandisers, lawyer and others seeking to win exclusive commercial rights to such phrases as “We are the 99 percent,” ‘’Occupy” and “Occupy DC 2012.”

“

I would like to ensure that this isn’t co-opted for commercial purposes. The trademark can be used for noncommercial purposes.”

— Wylie Stecklow, a lawyer representing Occupy Wall Street protesters, who applied to trademark “Occupy Wall Street.”

Organizers of the protest centered in Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park went so far as to file for a trademark of “Occupy Wall Street” after several other applications connected to the demonstrations were filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Wylie Stecklow, a lawyer representing the protesters, said the Oct. 24 filing was done to prevent profiteering from a movement many say is a protest of corporate greed.

“I would like to ensure that this isn’t co-opted for commercial purposes,” Stecklow said. “The trademark can be used for noncommercial purposes.”

Stecklow’s application was one of three filed with the U.S. PTO seeking to trademark either “Occupy Wall Street” or “Occupy Wall St.”

Vince Ferraro, a small businessman based in Arizona, applied to trademark “Occupy Wall Street” a few hours after Stecklow. Ferraro declined to discuss his plans if he wins the trademark.

“If I prevail,” he said, “I believe there are opportunities in commerce not directly related to the movement.”

Both Stecklow and Ferraro were beat to the trademark office by a Long Island couple who filed for “Occupy Wall St.” on Oct. 16. Robert and Diane Maresca paid $975 for the application, which said they intended to put the

843-8991

3401 W. 6th

phrase on a wide-variety of products.

They couldn’t be reached for comment. But on Thursday, the couple withdrew their application, leaving Stecklow’s clients and Ferraro as the only two competing to own “Occupy Wall Street.”

USPTO lawyer Cynthia Lynch said that when the trademark office is confronted with similar applications, it gives priority to the first application received. However, she said the trademark office also takes into consideration whether the phrase was in wide use before the first application was filed.

EDITORIALS

Next steps It’s time to dive into the details to see whether the city can take advantage of an offer of private support for a new city recreation center.

A

new recreation center in northwest Lawrence isn’t exactly a slam dunk.

The generous commitment from Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self and his Assists Foundation to provide $1 million for the project, along with help in raising additional private funds, is a significant incentive to move forward. It would be wonderful for the city to work with the coach and his foundation on this project, but commissioners also need to consider a number of other factors: primarily the cost of building and operating a new center and how that fits in with the city’s other funding commitments.

City parks and recreation officials and Self envision a center with at least five gyms so that the facility could accommodate regional or national youth basketball or volleyball tournaments. Adding space for cardio and weight training equipment and a walking/ jogging track, they think the center would cost about $15 million. Even with the help of the Assists Foundation, that’s a significant financial commitment for the city.

The rec center is included on Tuesday’s Lawrence City Commission agenda. In agenda materials, city staff members acknowledge that projected income from a county sales tax that has been dedicated to recreation uses wouldn’t cover all of the construction and operating costs of a $15 million center. Several options exist for filling that gap: private fundraising, reducing the size of the project, charging admission to the center or taking funds from elsewhere. (One source of funding recommended by the staff is taking money from the county sales tax dedicated to street maintenance. The city’s 2008 infrastructure sales tax now is being used for that purpose, but any reduction in maintenance funds might be a tough sell to local residents.)

How much could the city expect to raise in a private fund drive for the center? Assessing that potential and developing a fundraising plan could be a key to making the project feasible. Finding acceptable ways to trim the cost of the initial project also is a possibility.

Charging admission for people to simply enter the center should be low on the city’s list.

Another idea that arose in a recent city study session was the idea of locating the center near the intersection of Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway to spur development in that area. That’s an interesting proposition, but that location wouldn’t be as easily accessible to many people as the location near Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive that had been discussed earlier.

Representatives of the Assists Foundation say they are eager to work with the city on this project, but they don’t expect to be involved in operating the center or making decisions about what tournaments or activities it would accommodate once it is built. It will be a city facility and the city will be responsible for paying off the bonds and covering the long-term operating costs.

The question that lingers in many people’s minds is: Would the city be considering this project now if the foundation’s money wasn’t on the table? It’s wonderful that Self and his foundation are supporting this project, but the $1 million and whatever fundraising clout the coach can provide will cover only a fraction of the project’s cost.

The city staff is recommending that the City Commission proceed with an agreement with the Assists Foundation for “possible support” of a new center and develop a fundraising plan that “would include refinement of the conceptual plans for the project.” Those seen like reasonable steps. Many details remain to be fleshed about this idea, but it’s time to find out whether the city and the foundation can come up with a workable plan.

Already Prof. Haworth has learned from his experiments and investigations made during the past few weeks that there will be no gas famine this winter in these cities, but that in the future there will be a lack of gas or else new wells will have to be discovered and put into operation.”

Questions to differentiate GOP field WASHINGTON — The Republican presidential candidates, their sinews stiffened and their blood summoned up, may rightly dread Wednesday’s version of what are inexplicably called debates. The candidates have some explaining to do, particularly regarding two subjects that deserve more searching examination than is possible in 60-second bursts on a stage cluttered with eight contestants. But perhaps certain candidates can be compelled to expand upon, and improve upon, what they have been saying about foreign poli-

But perhaps certain candidates can be compelled to expand upon, and improve upon, what they have been saying about foreign policy, and about the role of the judiciary in American democracy.”

cy, and about the role of the judiciary in American democracy.

Most of the candidates have disparaged Barack Obama’s decision that all U.S. troops will leave Iraq this year. (Ron Paul considers the withdrawal of U.S. assets insufficiently thorough; but, then, he might favor U.S. withdrawal from territories of the constitutionally dubious Louisiana Purchase.) What is the candidates’ objection to Obama implementing the statusof-forces agreement that his predecessor signed in 2008?

The candidates should answer three questions: How many troops would they leave in Iraq?

For how long? And for what purpose? If eight years, 4,485 lives and $800 billion are not enough, how many more of each are they prepared to invest there? And spare us the conventional dodge about “listening to” the “commanders in the field.” Each candidate is aspiring to be commander in chief

in a nation in which civilians set policy for officers to execute.

Since most of the candidates seem eager to continue the U.S. presence in Iraq, what other presences do they consider sacrosanct?

Twenty-two years after the Berlin War crumbled, the United States has 80,000 troops stationed in Europe, 54,000 of them in Germany, a prosperous and remarkably stable country with equally pacific neighbors. Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Colo., of the Armed Services Committee notes that only four (Albania, France, Greece, the United Kingdom) of NATO’s 28 members besides the United States are “fulfilling their requirement under the NATO charter to spend at least 2 percent of their gross domestic product on defense.” Are not most NATO members free riders on America’s military might?

For what? Who is NATO deterring? How, exactly, does it promote European stability?

European turbulence consists of Greeks and other welfare-state clients rioting about affronts to their entitlement mentality.

Regarding domestic affairs, most of the candidates — Jon Huntsman and Mitt Romney have admirably refrained — have been barking about courts, and especially about the Su-

preme Court, aka “nine oligarchs in robes” (Rick Perry). Rick Santorum wants to “eliminate” the often liberal 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, although it is not clear why that is necessary, given that the Supreme Court has made the 9th Circuit the most frequently reversed appellate court.

Newt Gingrich, never one to miss an opportunity for rhetorical flamboyance, says “one of the major reasons” for his candidacy is the 9th Circuit’s opinion, nine years ago, that said the phrase “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance violates the First Amendment proscription of the “establishment” of religion: “That decision to me had the same effect that the Dred Scott decision extending slavery to the whole country had on Abraham Lincoln.”

Really? It took four years of war and 625,000 dead to settle the slavery question; it took a unanimous Supreme Court a few minutes to swat aside the 9th Circuit’s silliness. But a fulminating Gingrich speaks of cutting funding for the 9th Circuit’s electricity, law clerks and library. Michele Bachmann and Paul think Congress should restrict the jurisdiction of federal courts. The common theme of the candidates

complaining about the courts is that, in Perry’s words, “activist” judges “deny us the right to live as we see fit.”

Indeed, courts sometimes do that. And conservatives sometimes applaud, vigorously and rightly. Perry did when the Supreme Court, properly enforcing the Second Amendment, said that the elected representatives of the residents of Washington, D.C., and Chicago could not do as they saw fit, and as a majority of their constituents probably favored, regarding gun control.

Perry, Gingrich, Bachmann, Santorum and Paul ardently hope that five Supreme Court justices will be active enough to declare unconstitutional the individual health insurance mandate enacted by majorities in both houses of Congress.

Because the very idea of an eight-sided debate is absurd, and because such a televised event is survival of the briefest, the format discourages the drawing of sensible distinctions. But presidential duties demand this, and it would be helpful if the mad proliferation of debates at least tested this aptitude regarding issues as large as war and the judiciary.

PUBLIC FORUM

Menu choices To the editor: In regard to your articles on attracting retirees to Lawrence, I have a complaint. Many retirees are on limited incomes and cannot afford Meadowlark Estates and their opportunity to provide three meals a day. I know Lawrence does not like “chain” restaurants. However, there is a need for reasonably priced breakfast, lunch, dinner and late-night pie and coffee after grandchildren’s activities in the northwest area of Lawrence.

There are several places on South Iowa and 23rd Street, but what about the rest of the city/county? Suggestions are a Bob Evans, Cracker Barrel, Mimi’s, Village Inn, Panera or Einstein’s. I feel like the northwest part of the city is the orphan for restaurants with under $10 menus.

Please take into consideration those of us who have lived here for any period of time who chose to retire here for the many other benefits Lawrence has to offer. The lack of reasonable restaurants is why some drive to the Legends or Topeka to eat.

Judy Stuart, Lawrence

Personal matters To the editor: My recent letter, “Modesty issue,” received a variety of responses. This

week, our evening conversation began, “Why are so many things in our society throwaway?” The answer came from a young fellow in a different context as I watched him fix his lawn mower in my garage.

“No one wants to ask a question anymore,” was his intuitive reply. He and I left it there; you and I take it up here.

As stated in my previous letter, young children aren’t ready for private information that’s fed them in classrooms. The result is we silence children. They develop a tendency to not ask questions because they’re afraid of information when private information is addressed in a public, intimidating setting.

Parents are the ones to determine, with God’s help, the appropriate time and place to instruct their children about personal issues. When schools take it upon themselves to offer this instruction, they treat every case as identical.

That’s not how God made us.

Perhaps my previous letter gave you, as adults, too much information, also. I received a knee-jerk reaction, overall.

Perhaps my letter solicited unfounded fears. That’s disturbing. If you’re a parent, addressing this information at the appropriate time is a privilege and not something to be feared.

I’m tired of a throwaway society. Last century, we went from horses and carriages to a man on the moon.

This century?

Self not fretting Tigers’ Big 12 departure

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Bad move, Mizzou Mystified at Missouri’s decision to bolt the Big 12 for the SEC, yes. Shocked? No. Remember, this is the same school that interviewed Quin Snyder and Bill Self to replace Norm Stewart and decided to hire Snyder.

This is the same school that after losing basketball coach Mike Anderson to Arkansas hired Frank Haith.

At Sunday’s festive news conference to announce the move to the football conference that features fast, huge, in-yourface defensive linemen, Missouri Chancellor Brady Deaton cited “continuing instability in the conference we were in” as impetus for the move.

He has a point. After all, it wasn’t long ago that a school whose chancellor was the Big 12 board chairman triggered the instability by publicly expressing its desire to draw an invitation to the Big Ten. That school, of course, was Missouri, and Deaton was the Big 12 chairman until last month.

The Big 12 now has the sort of fair TV deal that the SEC has. Missouri always seemed to want more power in decisionmaking in the Big 12 and begrudged Texas its leading role.

Here’s how powerful Missouri is in the SEC: The Tigers will be in the East division, despite it making no sense geographically.

Apparently, big-money boosters promised to fund facilities upgrades as long as Mizzou joined the SEC. Better facilities mean better recruiting. But that presumes Missouri can continue to recruit Texas as well as it has when it was a Big 12 member. Dangerous assumption.

Plus, it’s not as difficult to get a Texas player out of the state of Texas as it is getting an Alabama athlete out of Alabama, a Georgia standout out of Georgia. Ditto for Louisiana, Mississippi, etc.

Athletes from the deep South tend to like to stay in the deep South.

The move to the SEC hasn’t worked out as well for Arkansas as it had hoped. Snazzy facilities might help to change that, but so far the school hasn’t had nearly as high a profile as it did in the Southwest Conference.

None of that will scare Gary Pinkel, a confident man for a reason. He’s a heck of a football coach. On the positive side, his spread offense is one that SEC defenses don’t often prepare to face, so the unfamiliarity could close the talent gap a little. ! If Mississippi boosters fed up with coach Houston Nutt get their way, Pinkel might not be the only pass-happy coach joining the SEC. Ole Miss fans love the idea of Mike Leach bringing his aerial show to Oxford. Ole Miss, like Kansas University, is 0-6 in conference and 2-7 overall.

Zack Stoudt, the juco recruit who chose Mississippi over KU, has thrown six picks and two touchdowns and has a 50.5 completion percentage.

Ole Miss boosters are growing louder by the minute about their desire to replace a Nutt with a (pirate) nut. ! A couple of former Mark Mangino assistant coaches had big weekends.

Rice University’s offense, coordinated by former KU offensive line coach John Reagan, amassed 671 yards in a 41-37 victory against UTEP. Northern Illinois head coach Dave Doeren’s Huskies, who lost to KU 45-42 in Week 2, won at Toledo, 63-60, to improve to 6-3 overall and 4-1 in the MAC. Doeren’s Huskies rank 10th in the nation with 41.2 points per game.

Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self will not lose any sleep in coming days, weeks and months over Missouri bolting the Big 12 Conference for the SEC. “I think everybody hoped that Missouri would stay, but I don’t know of any Kansas fans that are crying over them leaving,” Self told the Journal-World on Sunday night, following the an-

nouncement that the Tigers had bid the Big 12 farewell.

Self was asked if the Jayhawks and Tigers would play again in men’s basketball.

“We will play them two more times — we’ve got them home and away this year,” Self stated.

What about perhaps scheduling the Tigers down the line?

“Like I said before, we have absolutely no obligation whatsoever to play Missouri in basketball. None,” Self said. “If we do so, it will only be done because

it’s best for Kansas, not done because anybody else wants us to. We couldn’t care less what Missouri wants. If in fact they want to play us, it will be strictly determined if we want to. It will not be determined by other people, because I’ll be honest, the majority of Kansas fans don’t give a flip about playing Missouri.”

KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger and Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little issued statements Sunday. Zenger said:

“This news doesn’t surprise us.

We wish Missouri all the best in the future. The University of Kansas can now focus on TCU, West Virginia University and the other members of the Big 12 Conference who choose to be with us.”

Gray-Little said: “We’re sorry to see a century-old conference rivalry end. Missouri’s decision may have implications for fans and for the Kansas City area, but it won’t affect the long-term strength of the Big 12.”

KANSAS’ AISHAH SUTHERLAND, RIGHT, KNOCKS THE BALL AWAY from Pitt State’s Lizzy Jeronimus. After a close first half, the Jayhawks pulled away for a 68-43 exhibition victory on Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse.

KU pulls away for victory

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s women’s basketball team wasn’t particularly interested in entertaining Allen Fieldhouse fans Sunday afternoon by playing a close game.

So a six-point lead for the home team in an exhibition against Pittsburg State wasn’t sitting too well in the halftime locker room meeting.

Turns out that was inspiration enough for KU to come in the second half and set things straight.

The Jayhawks picked up the pace post-halftime and rode that momentum to a 68-43 victory.

After hitting 13 shots in the first 20 minutes, Kansas opened the second half with eight baskets in the first five minutes. Obviously, that

was a welcome sign of life for Jayhawks coach Bonnie Henrickson.

“I thought our sense of urgency coming out of the locker room with that first group was better than it was in the first half,” she said.

Junior guard Monica Engelman, who scored a game-high 16 points, said finding a spark early in the second half was critical for the Jayhawks, who thought the game shouldn’t have been so close at halftime.

Something had to change.

“Our coaches were talking about we get our offense from our defense,” Engelman said. “If we’re doing really well and we’re getting stops and we’re getting deflections and being able to run in transition, then the offense is gonna come a lot easier.”

In the second half, the Jayhawks picked up their production immediately with an Engelman steal. She distributed the ball in transition to junior guard Angel Goodrich, who converted a difficult hanging layup over two PSU defenders to extend the KU lead to eight.

On the ensuing defensive possession for Kansas, junior forward Carolyn Davis snagged a rebound and got the ball ahead to Goodrich. The 5-foot-4 playmaker spotted senior forward Aishah Sutherland posting up on the left block in transition and fed her for an up-and-under bucket that gave KU its first double-digit lead.

Davis said the Jayhawks hadn’t been pushing the ball and establishing tempo in the first half.

There’s a good chance best friends Jordan Juenemann of Kansas University and Jason Ball of Fort Hays State will guard each other in Tuesday’s 7 p.m. exhibition basketball game in Allen Fieldhouse.

“I was thinking about that today,” Juenemann, a 6-foot-3, 195-pound senior, said of being assigned to stop his 6-1, 170-pound Hays grade-school, middle-school and high-school teammate/buddy. “I like him so much, but when it’s out on the floor, it’s business.

After the game, it’ll be all laughs and smiles, not during the game.”

Juenemann Ball — who says he and Juenemann are “dead even in 1-on-1 games on the driveway” throughout the years — agrees that “once the game starts, Ball it’s business.

Afterwards it’s back to being best friends.”

KU is coming off Tuesday’s 8455 victory over Pittsburg State.

Fort Hays State, meanwhile, fell to Kansas State, 90-60, on Sunday in Manhattan.

“Jason is probably the best shooter I’ve played with. He’s a pure shooter like Conner (Teahan),” Juenemann said.

Of course, Ball returned the compliment: “Jordan’s a strong player. He has good ball-handling skills, a good defensive player with the ability to knock down the open shot. He’s pretty well-rounded.”

A walk-on, Juenemann figures to land significant playing time for the second consecutive game. Called on to play point guard with Tyshawn Taylor and Elijah Johnson serving twogame exhibition suspensions, Juenemann scored four points, grabbed five rebounds, dished one assist and committed two turnovers while logging 15 minutes against the Gorillas.

Chiefs’ come back down, 31-3

By Dave Skretta Associated Press Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, MO. — The Chiefs were coming off an exhilarating overtime victory, a hard-fought win over a division opponent that gave them a share of the AFC West lead.

With a short week on deck before Sunday’s game against the winless Miami Dolphins, coach Todd Haley struggled with how to structure it. He wound up plowing ahead in practice rather

than backing off and letting his guys heal up, and Kansas City paid for the decision in embarrassing fashion.

Matt Moore threw for 244 yards and three touchdowns, Reggie Bush ran for 92 yards and another score, and the Dolphins walloped the Chiefs, 31-3.

“We really tried to work hard to make sure we were handling the week correctly, physically and mentally,” Haley said. “I’m not making excuses for the guys, but I just think we probably

tried to do too much during the week which they just weren’t physically capable of handling.”

Matt Cassel threw for 253 yards without an interception, but he spent most of the afternoon running from Dolphins defenders. He was sacked five times and forced to scramble Charlie Riedel/AP Photo nine more, his 38 yards rushing just two behind Jackie Battle’s MIAMI STRONG SAFETY YEREMIAH BELL (37) pushes Kansas City wide receiver Dwayne team-leading total.

Sporting K.C. falls short of final, 2-0 KANSAS CITY, KAN. (AP) — The first time Houston came into Livestrong Sporting Park, the Dynamo went home on the short end of a 3-0 rout.

They haven’t lost since that Sept. 10 defeat — and this time, they left with the faint scent of champagne still clinging to their scraggly playoff beards. “Three months ago, a lot of people just kind of have — I wouldn’t say cast us aside, but didn’t take us seriously,� coach Dominic Kinnear said after Houston reached the MLS Cup final by beating Sporting Kansas City, 2-0, on Sunday in the Eastern Conference title game. “This is definitely a big statement to everyone who did that, that things can happen when things go well for you.�

The win also puts the Dynamo in the CONCACAF Champions League for the 2012-13 season.

NBA players mulling ultimatum NEW YORK (AP) — NBA players have until Wednesday to accept Commissioner David Stern’s latest offer, though the response already seems obvious. “Right now, we’ve been given the ultimatum, and our answer is that’s not acceptable to us,� union president Derek Fisher said.

But the next proposal promises to be worse, surely moving players and owners even further apart and threatening to destroy the 2011-12 season.

Early Sunday morning, the league said it offered players up to 51 percent of basketball-related income — a figure the union insists is fiction. Regardless, it will drop to 47 percent Wednesday if players don’t accept the current offer by the league-imposed deadline.

No agreement by the deadline likely will trigger more calls to disband the union and take on the league in court, a battle that would take months. “It’s fair to say that there are some who believe a vote to decertify is a vote to end the season,� said a person familiar with the owners’ thinking who spoke to the Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the talks. “The owners are hopeful that the players have a chance to vote on what is on the table, what’s proposed now, because no one knows what happens next.�

Players don’t seem eager to act quickly. “These are professional basketball players, the finest athletes in the world. How do you think they feel about threats? How do you think they feel about efforts at intimidation?� attorney Jeffrey Kessler said.

Fisher and Kessler said the league’s time-sensitive deal — Stern refused to call it an ultimatum — came near the conclusion of Saturday’s talks.

The sides had hoped they could complete a deal this weekend with the help of federal mediator George Cohen. He released a statement Sunday commending the parties for “their willingness to examine solutions to their current dispute� and offering to assist in the future.

Although the revenue gap has narrowed, the sides are at a standstill on the system issues players insist are just as important.

The union believes the league’s proposals to increase luxury tax penalties, and eliminate or reduce some spending options, essentially would prevent the biggest-spending teams from being free agent options. A “repeater tax� would further punish teams that were taxpayers a fourth time in a five-year span, and players fear the penalty that awaits teams who receive money from the tax pool but suddenly take on salary and go into the tax would discourage spending. “The big story here is they want it all,�

Kessler said. “They want the system where taxpayers will never be in the marketplace, and that for repeat taxpayers it’s going to be like a hard salary cap.�

Though each side claimed credit for economic moves, it appears there was little to no progress.

Stern said the league proposed a band where players could earn anywhere from 49 percent to 51 percent of BRI, based on revenue growth. Union officials said there was almost no way they could get to the ceiling, leaving them right at the 50-50 split owners have said they wouldn’t go past.

Players added they were the ones who were willing to reduce their guarantee down to 51 percent, with 1 percent of that going into a fund for retired player benefits.

standing-room-only crowd of almost 21,000, the biggest to pack into the team’s new stadium. “We’re disappointed because we did realize that it could have been something special with the crowd, with us being at home and only having a one-game series,� defender Matt Besler said. “So that’s the unfortunate part about it.�

Andre Hainault and Carlo Costly scored second-half goals for Houston, which extended its unbeaten streak to nine — but now heads into the Nov. 20 title game, its first since the back-toback championship seasons of 2006 and 2007, with questions about whether its star playmaker will be able to play.

Midfielder Brad Davis, who led MLS with 16 assists this season, went down with an injured right quadriceps while challenging Graham Zusi for a ball in the 37th minute. “The prognosis is most likely not, right now,� Davis said of his

chances at playing in the final against either Real Salt Lake or the Los Angeles Galaxy. “They think I have a torn quad. It’s just a freak thing; I was trying to turn and make a play on the ball. They didn’t hit me. They didn’t kick me.�

His emergency replacement, little-used Jamaican defender Jermaine Taylor, helped set up Hainault’s 53rd-minute goal for a 1-0 lead.

Kansas City keeper Jimmy Nielsen was able to get a glove on Taylor’s header off Adam Moffat’s free kick, but Hainault was there to tap the rebound into an open goal. “Give a lot of credit to Jermaine Taylor,� said Hainault, who has two goals in the postseason. “He did well to get to that back post and get it across. I knew set pieces were going to be huge tonight, and they were.�

Costly’s goal came in the 87th minute, with Sporting pushed forward in search of an equalizer.

Stewart wins again; closes on Edwards FORT WORTH, TEXAS — Another round to Tony Stewart, and quite a fight for the Cup title with two races left.

Stewart raced to his second consecutive victory, and won for the fourth time in eight NASCAR Chase for the Sprint Cup races, finishing just ahead of points leader Carl Edwards in the so-called “Texas Title Fight� that fully lived up to its billing Sunday.

And Stewart backed up his challenge.

After winning last week at Martinsville, Stewart got out of his car in Victory Lane and said Edwards “better be worried. That’s all I’m saying.�

Now it looks like a two-driver fight for the championship with two races left after they finished 1-2 at the 11â „2-mile, high-banked Texas track.

Stewart cut his points deficit from eight points to three with an average speed of 152.705 mph, the fastest Cup race at Texas, and a 1.092-second margin over Edwards. “We’re set on it, man. This is just the way it’s going to be,� Stewart said. “I don’t think we have to say anything (else). I think our performance today speaks for itself. He knows already, trust me.�

Two top university officials — Gary C. Schultz, the university’s senior vice president for finance and business, and Penn State athletic director Tim Curley — also were charged in the case, announced Saturday.

Sandusky is accused of sexually abusing eight boys over 15 years.

Kansas loses bowl carrot

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Saturday’s 13-10 loss to Iowa State made it impossible for the Kansas University football team to become bowl-eligible this season by earning at least six victories.

That harsh reality made KU’s seventh straight loss a little tougher to handle.

“Obviously, that was our big goal for the year,” sophomore quarterback Jordan Webb said of receiving a bowl bid. “But we have a chance to ultimately win November. We’re gonna come out and just take it one game at a time. That’s all you can do at this point in the season.

Not all is lost.”

For the first time in weeks, the Jayhawks were within striking distance late in the fourth quarter and actually had a chance to put together a drive to win. They came up short, but KU coach Turner Gill said he sensed an extra dose of excitement on the sideline in final few minutes.

“I think guys were in tune throughout the football game,” Gill said. “I think that’s what happens when you have a close game throughout. But I think our guys have always stayed in tune. They’ve always competed even though the score may have been one way or the other. And they kept on believing that we were gonna get the job done.”

Junior co-captain Toben Opurum said he didn’t notice much difference in the way he and his teammates competed just because the game was close.

“We could be down by three points or we could be down by 20 points, and I’m gonna give the same effort that I give regardless of the score,” Opurum said. “And I think that speaks for the rest of the team.”

Even as the losses began to pile up and the season began to head south, the Jayhawks pointed to their overall goals still being attainable and continued to push forward with a positive attitude. Now that one goal — a bowl berth — must be struck from the list, it will be interesting to see how the team responds with three games to play. Gill said he expected the same kind of effort.

“I guess time will tell,” he said. “We’ve got three games left to try to finish strong and finish things on a positive note.”

Running game returns Led by a career-high 70 yards from freshman Darrian Miller, the KU running game delivered its best performance in five games. KU’s 174 yards rushing were the most since the opening game of Big 12 play, when the Jayhawks ran for 249 yards in a 45-34 loss to Texas Tech.

“I’m definitely happy we got back into our groove,” Miller said. “The backs were making plays and all of us were feeding off of each other. It’s put us in a good direction for the following weeks to keep on running hard.”

Miller received six more carries than sophomore starter James Sims, who lost a fumble midway through the loss.

“We’ve talked about trying to get a few more touches for Darrian Miller,” Gill said.

“James has been a very good back. I wouldn’t say he’s a fumbler. It’s unfortunate that happened. But he’s a good football player, and he’s still gonna be a major factor in the rest of our football season.”

Gill said Miller’s ability to run in traffic was what inspired the coaching staff to find more carries for him.

“Both of them have been productive,” Gill said. “But Miller may have been a little more productive as far as contact made on him. He’s actually made the most yards after contact. But they’re both gonna continue to be used.”

Missouri bolts Big 12 SCOREBOARD COLUMBIA, MO. (AP) — Byebye Big 12, hello SEC. After weeks of private flirtations and the college sports’ equivalent of prenuptial negotiations with their respective lawyers, Missouri and the Southeastern Conference took their mutual attraction public Sunday.

First the SEC released a statement welcoming Missouri as its newest member.

Later there was a campus pep rally in Columbia, replete with a new SEC banner, the school’s marching band and exploding confetti.

“We are pleased, and we are proud to welcome you to the family of the Southeastern Conference,” SEC Commissioner Mike Slive told hundreds of students and alumni packed into the campus union. “We know that homecoming is a special tradition here at Missouri. So let me say to the entire Missouri nation, ‘Welcome to your new home.’”

Missouri will join the

league effective July 1, 2012 by unanimous agreement of the SEC’s presidents and chancellors, including Bernie Machen of Florida, who joined Slive at Sunday’s announcement in Columbia.

Missouri will be leaving the Big 12, a conference it has been a part of since 1907, including its days as the Big Eight and earlier incarnations such as the Big Six. The school could also face the end of annual athletic contests with neighboring Big 12 survivor Kansas, a rivalry with roots in the Civil War. The teams first met on the football field in 1891, the sport’s oldest traditional matchup west of the Mississippi River. Their college basketball battles also began in the 19th century.

The Big 12’s uncertain future drove the move, said Missouri Chancellor Brady Deaton, who until last month was the conference’s board chairman — and public face of the league’s fight for survival after

KANSAS’ MONICA ENGELMAN (13) SCRAMBLES to pick up a loose ball after swiping it from a Pitt State player. KU won, 68-43, in its final exhibition Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse.

“Going into the locker room, we were really just frustrated with how we were playing. We weren’t playing our game,” she said.

The second half was a different story: “We played at our pace, and that’s what helped us get the lead,” Davis said.

Gorillas junior guard Drew Roberts hit a three-pointer to get PSU back within seven 1:16 into the second half, but Kansas countered with a 12-2 run in the next three-plus minutes.

It began with Engelman displaying terrific body control, catching a pass on the run, sweeping in from right wing, then altering her path to avoid contact for a layup that gave KU a 35-26 lead.

Said Henrickson: “In transition, she’s pretty aggressive to the rim, and those are the kind of shots she got.”

Pittsburg State freshman forward Lizzy Jeronimus drove in and scored over KU’s starting forwards, Davis and Sutherland, with 17:30 to play.

But Engelman answered with a smooth baseline jumper.

A few seconds later, the junior captain stole the ball from PSU and hit Davis as she ran down the middle of the floor for a layup. On KU’s next possession, Engelman

set up Davis again, this time by driving baseline and dishing to a wide-open Davis under the basket.

Goodrich showed soft touch, making a runner from the baseline the next time down the floor, and Davis capped the Jayhawks’ 12-2 outburst by blocking a shot and running for a fast-break layup off a pass from Goodrich that gave Kansas a 4528 advantage.

A catalyst throughout the win, Engelman (7-for-11 from the floor) gave credit to the rest of the Jayhawks for getting her open.

“My teammates did a good job of sucking in my defender,” she said, “and then I’d have an uncontested shot, so it was easier for me.”

Engelman scored 10 of her points in the first half, but that was one of the few things going right for KU before halftime. Henrickson lamented the Jayhawks’ efforts in a number of areas.

“They (PSU) just ran it right up our throat and got loose balls and got rebounds and got kick-out threes,” the coach said.

She was most disappointed in rebounding, where PSU held a 42-36 edge, leading to 16 second-chance points for the Gorillas. KU, meanwhile, scored just four on second chances.

At 2 p.m. Sunday, KU will begin its regular season by playing host to Western Michigan.

hard today. I don’t know if that was a factor or not,” Cassel said of the short turnaround from a 23-20 victory over San Diego on Monday night.

“I felt like this team was prepared,” he added, “and we just didn’t go out and execute.”

There was no disputing that.

Already trailing 14-3 in the third quarter, the Chiefs tried to get cute with their field goal team and everything went haywire. Punter Dustin Colquitt, the holder, was supposed to toss the ball back to kicker Ryan Succop for a pooch punt, but only about half the team appeared to have heard the play call. Colquitt fumbled amid the chaos and the Dolphins took over on downs.

Any chance of a comeback ended early in the fourth quar-

ter, when Kansas City failed to convert on fourth down at the Dolphins 3. The Chiefs also couldn’t score on fourth-andgoal at the 5-yard line in the closing minutes of the game.

“I felt like we were focused and ready, but it didn’t happen, man. It didn’t happen,” linebacker D.J. Johnson said.

“We have to do much better. If we want to win this division and play like we did Monday night, we’ve got to be more consistent across the board.”

Johnson said the loss reminded him of the first two games this season, when Kansas City was outscored

by Buffalo and Detroit by a combined 89-10.

“We’ve been through this type of loss before. We’ll bounce back,” he said. “We’ll fight hard next week. We’ll do a lot better. You’ve got to have a short-term memory in this game. But things like this — gosh — you have to somehow forget it.”

‘Kung Fu Panda’ spinoff show kicks into gear Success breeds sequels and then a TV spinoff. That formula now applies to “Kung Fu Panda.” The new series “Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness” (4:30 p.m., Nickelodeon) debuts for the “SpongeBob” crowd today.

The “Panda” computer-graphic comedies have grossed the better part of a billion dollars over the years. The cartoons follow a theme as old as screen comedy.

Juxtapose the austere serenity of Eastern martial arts with the clumsy antics of a gluttonous bear, and voila: slapstick- action.

Jack Black voiced that bear, Po, in the big-screen versions. And his character’s attitude was not terribly dissimilar to Black’s other screen roles. The “Awesomeness” theme song has the distinct jokiness of Black’s old musical act Tenacious D. But Jack Black’s name is not in the credits for this TV series. Lucy Liu and James Hong reprise their voices from the blockbuster movies, but Mick Wingert supplies Po’s voice. Will kids be able to tell Jack Black’s voice from a Jack Black imitator? Will they care?

Over the past two decades we’ve seen big stars, and some formerly big stars, transform themselves behind prosthetics or become cartoon characters, or both. Eddie Murphy movies were once automatic hits, but around “Harlem Nights” he became box-office poison, only to resurrect his career beneath fat suits and makeup as the Klump characters. Then he became the jokey donkey in the “Shrek” movies. Will viewers ever go to theaters to see Eddie Murphy as Eddie Murphy in a screen comedy again?

The same question could be asked about Mike Myers ever starring in a non”Shrek” hit. Movie fans who fell out of love with Tom Cruise seemed to enjoy him in heavy makeup as the grotesque movie producer Les Grossman in “Tropic Thunder.” There’s word of a spinoff featuring that character.

Prosthetics, makeup and CGI characters can certainly prolong the careers of stars big and small. But when you spend so much time hiding, you can simply disappear.

Westerners turn to unorthodox cures in the four-part series “The Witch Doctor Will See You Now” (9 p.m., National Geographic).

“Vanguard” (7 p.m., Current) examines Islamophobia and the growth of popular hatred toward Muslims in both the U.S. and U.K.

Dear Annie: My wife and I just celebrated a bittersweet 25th wedding anniversary.

Eight months ago, a friend emailed that my wife’s college boyfriend, “Steve,” was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Their relationship only lasted a few months, but it was intense. He broke it off. She held on to those feelings for the longest time.

Even while we were dating, she communicated with him.

I was aware of this, but felt lucky simply to have her in my life.

When she informed me of Steve’s illness, I did not react well. I said I never liked him and wasn’t interested in knowing what was going on.

Unbeknownst to me, my wife joined a cancer survivors website that Steve logged on to so she could follow his progress. She found out that he never married. The week Steve died, I saw the website address on her computer. She admitted what she’d done and also told me she had emailed to wish him the best.

I was floored by this information. I asked what he said in reply, and she told me, “Not much. It wasn’t like he proclaimed his everlasting love.” I haven’t been able to get that out of my head.

Annie, it makes me believe it’s what she was hoping for — that he would confess he made a mistake breaking up
