Holly and Kyle Whitney say their Juliana potbelly pig, Gatsby, is smart, agile, loves to snuggle and craves attention.

City staff hopes to gain approval from the Lawrence City Commission on Tuesday to seek state funding for segments of the “Lawrence Loop,” an incomplete circumferential trail that’s been more than 20 years in the making.

The Kansas Portion city would pay Department of if bid were successful Transportation announced in September that it would award an estimated $14 million for alternative transportation projects in 2016.

Lessons learned from Gatsby, the pet pig

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

You’ll find no bacon in the Whitney home. Nor will you find pork chops or a holiday ham.

Not since the young couple adopted the newest member of their family last December, a Juliana potbelly pig named Gatsby.

“We had him for a

month and I said, ‘I’m not eating pork anymore, I’m only eating chicken,’” said Holly Whitney, Gatsby’s adoptive mother. “Then I

According to a memo from City Engineer Dave Cronin, the city wants to dna ond olMEs submit an application for a $750,000 construction Service for Edna will be at 2 p.m. Sun. Nov. 15 at project to complete four Eudora United Methodist Church. VISO will be 5-7p.m. sections of the Lawrence Sat. Nov. 14 at Warren-McElwain Mortuary - Eudora.

Loop that add up to about 0.7 mile.

The sections are: 750 linear feet from 29th Street to the Haskell Rail-Trail to the South Lawrence Trafficway Trail; 1,450 linear feet from Hobbs Park to 9 Del Lofts; 950 linear feet from Poehler Lofts to the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway Depot; and 800 linear feet from City Hall to Constant Park.

City staff is recommending applying for the funds to “continue with the ultimate goal of a completed loop,” the memo states.

The estimated construction cost is $750,000. If the city’s attempt to receive KDOT funding were successful, the city would pay 20 percent, or $150,000.

The city would also be obligated to pay the estimated $100,000 in design costs.

The Lawrence Loop, when complete, will be 22.4 miles. Thirteen miles of the 10-foot shared-use path are already complete, and there are two areas currently in the works: the half-mile path between Constant Park and Burcham Park and a longer stretch along the under-construction South Lawrence Trafficway.

If the city’s proposal is approved and the four sections complete, the entire eastern half of the trail would be finished except for the halfmile between the BNSF Depot and City Hall.

With some of the grant funding, city staff would conduct a study for that segment that would include seeking public input on a preferred route.

Other unfinished areas in the northern and western sections stretch from Woody Park to Peterson Park; from Stonegate Park to East 1000 Road; and

through Sports Pavilion Lawrence.

The project to create the trail started in the 1990s with the construction of the original west leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway.

Through the years, more sections have been added, some using grant funding.

The city lost out last year on KDOT funding for the Lawrence Loop. That application asked for funds to continue the trail between Hobbs Park and Constant Park. It wasn’t funded because of uncertainty of the trail’s alignment, the memo states.

The four sections that would be included in this year’s application are already mapped out.

Part of the project, from City Hall to Constant Park, includes routing a path underneath the Massachusetts Street and Vermont Street river bridges, which could include a scenic river overlook between the bridges. To use the route, the city would have to gain right-of-way approval from BNSF Railway and construct a retaining wall.

The project also includes constructing a trailhead and parking lot near the BNSF Depot.

Safe Routes to School In a separate request for the same KDOT funding pool, the city wants to seek $200,000 for the second phase of its Safe Routes to School program.

In 2014, KDOT approved a grant application for the first phase of Lawrence’s Safe Routes to School program. The grant, $15,000, is being used to establish a plan to make paths to school more walkable and bikeable for kids.

A working group, along with school district staff and a survey of parents, determined sidewalks and crosswalk beacons surrounding Liberty Memorial Central Middle School and Woodlawn Elementary School would be the program’s first priorities.

According to a memo from project engineer Nick Voss, the city’s application would call for adding sidewalks where there are now gaps and installing 10 flashing beacons at school

of the city manager position on the regular agenda for the commission’s meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 17.

The position became open when former City Manager David Corliss

Pig

and he peed and that was it,” he said. “They’re that smart. There were no accidents. No six months of training. It was instant. And now he oinks at the back door when he’s got to go.”

Now Gatsby is just more than a year old and weighs about 50 pounds, Holly said.

Kyle, a stay-at-home videographer, tends to lay down the law while Holly, a pharmacist, tends to be the one who sneaks table scraps, they agreed.

The couple need to keep any mail and packages out of reach or else the cardboard-loving Gatsby might tear the parcels apart, they said. He can also make his way into their couch’s center console and sniff out any stray snacks or treats.

Not only did the Whitneys quickly learn of Gatsby’s intelligence, but they began to notice his personality. Typically the pig is friendly, clever and loves attention from his parents, they said. But when he doesn’t get his way, he’s not shy about making himself heard.

“He’ll snuggle with us and when he’s on the couch he has to be on us, otherwise he’ll get angry,” Holly said.

“When a dog is upset, it’s more that they pout and go into a corner and sulk,” Kyle added. “Gatsby throws a tantrum. He’ll make this grunt and squeal noise.”

A sizeable portion of Gatsby’s day includes plopping himself on the Whitneys’ linoleum floor and soaking up sunbeams, Kyle said. The sliding glass door to the back yard opens to a magnetic screen that allows Gatsby to trot in and out of the house as a doggy door would.

Outside, Gatsby has a small pool he can stand in and keep cool. He also bobs for treats in the water, Kyle said.

One of Gatsby’s favorite activities, Kyle said, is rooting around in the yard. And although he enjoys playing with a bit of dirt, cleanliness is never an issue.

“He is extremely clean,” Holly said. “We maybe bathe him once a month.

He is really, really clean and he’s never really wallowed in dirt to cool down because he’s able to go in and outside when he wants.”

Before too long, Holly noticed that Gatsby had a certain photogenic quality and began an Instagram account, posting photos and videos of Gatsby. Now @gatsby_the_minipig has nearly 6,000 faithful online followers.

Not only does Gatsby get plenty of online attention, but Kyle said they run into so many interested people when they walk him that they need to carry Cheerios with them to make sure his new fans have something to feed him.

“It’s hard to get 5 feet without somebody stopping us,” he chuckles.

More often than not, Kyle said, people are mostly curious about what Gatsby eats. The answer is simple: He eats pig pellets bought from a local tractor supply store.

In recent years, pigs have become a more popular pet choice, said Kate Meghji, executive director for the Lawrence Humane Society. She estimates the shelter saw four or five pigs in the past year.

But the name “mini pig” or “teacup pig” is generally a misnomer because there’s no guarantee the pigs will stay small, Meghji said.

“I think that’s the biggest issue with the mini pigs or teacup pigs is there’s no actual breed like that,” she said. “Often the potbelly pigs you see in shelters are ones that people got and were little, but they got bigger than they expected.”

For anyone interested in adopting a pet pig, both the Whitneys and Meghji encourage a lot of research.

Although the animals do make for excellent pets, they say, it’s not the same as caring for a dog or a cat.

“If you can’t give them the attention they need, they’re going to intentionally be bad pigs out of spite, but if you let them out and have them engaged, they’re as great if not better of a pet as dogs,” Holly said.

went from there to being a pescatarian and now I’m a vegetarian.”

Kyle Whitney, Gatsby’s adoptive father, said he couldn’t go as far as cutting meat entirely out of his diet, but he has stopped eating pork.

“And I used to eat bacon all the time,” he laughs. “I’ll be honest with you, I do miss it, but we just can’t do it.”

Since the days of watching “Charlotte’s Web” as a young girl, Holly said, she always wanted a pet pig. Finally she was able to convince Kyle to take the plunge and adopt Gatsby from a breeder in Abilene.

Almost immediately, the couple was surprised by the piglet’s intelligence and surprising agility, they said.

“He was deceptively quick. It’s ridiculous how quick they are,” Kyle said.

“I mean, he was no bigger than your shoe and he would jump on top of the laundry baskets we used to block off other rooms.”

Gatsby even took to training quicker than the couple’s two dogs, a puggle named Daisy Mae and a Shih Tzu named Zeus, they said.

“The first day we got him, I set him in the yard

OTHER CONTACTS

Jayhawk Boulevard Another transportationrelated item the City Commission will consider Tuesday is providing a local match of $50,000 for Kansas University’s “streetscaping” project along Jayhawk Boulevard.

If approved, the $50,000 would come from KDOT funds annually provided for coordinated efforts between Lawrence Transit and KU Transit. KDOT allocated $1,054,945 to the fund in 2015.

KU plans to seek the majority of the funding for the project from the KDOT alternative transportation fund — the same grant opportunity the city hopes to apply to for the construction of the Lawrence Loop and Safe Routes to Schools.

If awarded the grant, 80 percent, or $200,000, would come from KDOT’s alternative transportation program, and the $50,000 in the city’s and KU’s joint fund would be used as the 20 percent match.

According to a proposal, the project includes constructing a bus shelter between Strong Hall and Bailey Hall that would be modeled on a historic trolley shelter at the location in the early 20th century.

There would also be kiosks installed that would display information about the historic trolley loop and the evolution of campus transit.

A new bus monitor would display bus arrival times, and the area would feature commissioned art.

Rent Like a Champion units average $700 per night homeowners who live on or near college campuses to rent out their digs to anyone coming into town, said CEO Mike Doyle.

“But those are homes that are typically sleeping seven or eight people,” he said, “and taking into account the convenience of having a kitchen and a living room, being able to walk to campus and skip traffic and not worry

Step 1: Fill cracks and crevices greater than 1/8 inch wide with joint compound. Do not use any other type of spackling or filler. Leave smaller cracks unfilled.

Step 2: Remove any loose material around the repair area. Sand the crack and the surrounding area to make it smooth to the touch.

Krack Kote only works on clean and smooth surfaces.

Step 3: Use a nonresidual cleaner such as TSP or Dirtex to clean the repair area.

Step 4: Stir the can of Krack Kote emulsion thoroughly. Add a small amount of water if necessary to create a smooth and spreadable paste.

Step 5: Brush Krack Kote over the crack, smoothing it about 2 inches out along either side of the crack.

They break a lot of glass items, and soon I’m sure they will start putting them in the oven instead of under the couch.)

Sunfire has been open for 18 years in Downtown Lawrence, all of them in the neat old gas station building that sits at 10th and New Hampshire streets. Roth said the west Lawrence location isn’t meant to replace the downtown location.

“We’re happy to be downtown, and we definitely want to remain downtown,” Roth said.

Instead, the west Lawrence location is aimed at expanding the store’s capacity. The business now has twice as much party space to offer, twice as much kiln space (they get up to 1,900 degrees, in case you were wondering) and twice as much space for inventory. Roth said she’s optimistic that the west Lawrence location will take off because she thinks Lawrence families are looking for unique activities.

“I think there is always something new to try and

do at a store like ours,” Roth said. “It is a nice hands-on activity. It seems like so many of us are in front of a computer a lot these days. It is nice to pull out a paint brush and have a little fun.”

As for the exact location Sunfire has moved into — 4821 W. Sixth St., Suite L — it used to house Scratch Bakery. I haven’t heard of the relatively new bakery moving anywhere, so it appears it may no longer be operating a Lawrence retail operation.

$13.61 an hour, is not competitive. In Leavenworth County, where the state has its oldest prison, officers in the county jail start at more than $16, Roberts said. In Ellsworth, home to another prison, manufacturing jobs can start at $18.

Roberts said staff “churning” at adult prisons means half of the entry-level officers have six months or less experience. The department said 9.3 percent of its uniformed positions are vacant and it paid nearly $3 million in overtime during the last fiscal year.

“The salaries are going to have to be increased,” Roberts told the committee.

Increasing wages $1 per hour for uniformed officers at adult prisons would cost the state $968,000, Roberts said.

Lawmakers could be looking at spending several million dollars a year to make wages truly competitive.

“You have to look at the seriousness of the issue and prioritize,” said Senate Ways and Means Committee Chairman Ty Masterson, an Andover Republican. “There’s nothing more important than public safety.”

Laura Calhoun, a 19year officer who represents fellow corrections department employees on the Kansas Organization of State Employees board, is skeptical that lawmakers can follow through.

Department officials said after beginning officers get a 5 percent pay raise after their first year,

there’s no guarantee of additional raises later.

Despite her seniority, Calhoun makes less than $18 an hour, and she said other issues, such as rising health care costs and a downsizing of the civil service system, add to “a really sad picture.”

The state has struggled to keep its budget balanced since Republican lawmakers followed Brownback’s call to slash personal income taxes in 2012 and 2013 in an effort to stimulate the state’s economy. They’ve preserved most of those past income tax cuts, but the debate leading to the sales and cigarette tax increases earlier this year was bitter — and it split Republicans.

Masterson and many other GOP lawmakers aren’t interested in backtracking on the income tax cuts. The joint corrections committee’s chairman, Republican Rep. John Rubin, of Shawnee, suggested trimming aid to public schools to boost pay for corrections officers. He argued that schools don’t spend money as efficiently as they could anyway.

But Democratic Rep. Kathy Wolfe Moore, of Kansas City, a House Appropriations Committee member, said lawmakers need to reopen the debate over Brownback’s tax policy. Calhoun agreed.

“I don’t believe stealing from somewhere else like education is right to do,” Calhoun said. “They’ve got to fix their budget before we can say anything about a pay raise.”

and received a total investment of $200,000 from Mark Cuban and Chris Sacca. Doyle said the company hopes to use the money to expand into another 20 markets.

“Clearly the model works for football games, but we wanted to know if we could try this for basketball weekends as well,” he said. “We’ve already received interest from dozens of homeowners in Lawrence, and our hope is that for this basketball season we will

be able to do rentals in Lawrence.”

Interested homeowners simply need to head to rentlikeachampion.com, answer some basic questions and add a few photos before they’re ready to start renting, Doyle said. Requesting dates for people looking to travel is just as easy, he said.

While the website is now ready to accept Lawrence homeowners and renters looking for a place to stay in town, Doyle said the business is

also open to other uses in the future.

Rather than limiting themselves to college game days, prospective renters can ask for any other day of the year, Doyle said. This way anyone coming into town for a wedding, reunion, vacation or anything in between might have a place to stay.

statewide scores in reading and math tests were released, showing that most Kansas students are performing at or above grade level but few are on track to be ready for college or careers by the time they graduate from high school.

Terry McEwen, director of curriculum, instruction and assessment for the school district,

will present the report on the district’s test results to the school board.

In other business, the school board will vote on whether to approve revisions to elementary and middle school schedules for the next two schoolyear calendars to account for the addition of two professional development days.

Board members will

also vote on whether to approve construction bids for Schwegler and Deerfield elementary schools.

The school board will meet at 7 p.m. at the district offices, 110 McDonald Drive.

with Christian roots, now labeled nondenominational and with iconography removed.

The other is the newly opened Reflection Room — a small, stark meeting alcove in the Kansas Union, which some say was needed because Danforth still doesn’t feel religion-neutral.

“Although it is nondenominational, and I don’t believe there are any crosses or iconography in the space ... it is a chapel, and that is very much associated with the Christian faith,” said Lisa Kring, director of building services for KU Memorial Unions. “It really is not a place that I think students of all faiths feel comfortable going to.”

Just steps off campus proper, there are multiple places for KU students and employees of differing belief systems to reflect.

Those include the Ecumenical Campus Ministries building on Oread Avenue, the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center on Crescent Road, the Islamic Center of Lawrence on Naismith Drive and Chabad at KU (Jewish center) on 19th Street.

KU’s on-campus meditative spaces — which are public property — seem to have evolved without public controversy, though disputes over religious spaces have sprung up at other public schools nationwide, according to a recent Chronicle of Higher Education article.

“It’s such a misreading of the First Amendment to say that a public university can’t accommodate religion,” Charles Haynes, vice president of the Newseum Institute and founder of its Religious Freedom Center, said in the Chronicle article.

Public institutions can

accommodate students’ religious needs, he says, “in a way that doesn’t take the university to the level of promoting one or more religions over other religions.”

‘Christian living’ Danforth Chapel, dedicated in 1946, was originally constructed “to be of some solution in the development of a Christian atmosphere on the campus,” according to a KU History article on the building. That was the wish of lead donor William Danforth, whose foundation helped construct numerous campus chapels nationally.

Then-KU Chancellor Deane Malott told The University Daily Kansan in 1944 that he welcomed construction of the chapel as “a center of emphasis for Christian living for which this University has stood throughout its history” and envisioned it as a quiet, secure place for students to pray and meditate, according to KU History.

Danforth stipulated that a copy of Heinrich Hofmann’s painting “Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane” be hung in the chapel, according to KU History. The chapel originally was equipped with an altar set, stained glass windows and an organ.

Two inscriptions carved into walls in the chapel’s entryway — each including a Celtic cross — credit the people who enabled its construction and communicate the following purpose, as requested by Danforth: “The Danforth Chapel, dedicated to the worship of God with the prayer that here in communion with the highest those who enter may achieve the spiritual power to aspire nobly, adventure daringly, serve humbly.”

It’s not clear exactly when Danforth officially became labeled nondenominational, although it’s been decades. A Journal-

World article from 1964 describes it as nondenominational.

Danforth is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. weekdays when school is in session, unless otherwise reserved, said Marsha Carrasco Cooper of KU’s Student Involvement and Leadership Center, who handles Danforth reservations.

Several campus organizations routinely reserve the chapel for meetings such as weeknight prayer groups, she said. It’s also often reserved on Fridays for wedding rehearsals, although weddings and other events such as christenings or memorial services are mainly on weekends.

glass windows is that of the KU seal. The seal, which also is carved into the building’s exterior, features Moses kneeling before the burning bush.

However, there are traditional wooden church pews and the building’s architecture itself — Gothic Revival, according to KU — hearkens from European Christian churches of old.

“I think if people adhere to a faith tradition other than Christianity, they may be a little hesitant to go in there,” Holcombe said.

Learning truth may be difficult, but important Dear Annie: I am a 17-year-old female. I have been struggling with depression since I was young. I have had traumatic events happen in my life.

Both of my parents died before I was 13.

My mother was abusive and my father had to be both mother and father to me. I also have a younger brother. I currently live in foster care.

I have recently wanted to learn more about my past. I’ve been told I should move on and not dwell on what I can’t change. But I have a lot of questions and some guilt about how I handled things when I was younger.

Am I doing the right thing by pursuing this or am I just hurting myself? — Battle with Wanting to Know

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

More Dear Battle: We think you deserve to know the truth. But knowing about your past involves the bad as well as the good.

Would it be hurtful? Perhaps. You can’t make amends for past mistakes if you are unaware of them. But if you had an abusive mother, your behavior was in response to hers, and you may be feeling guilt for something that is not your

Different views of Vietnam “Independent Lens” (9 p.m., PBS, TV-14, check local listings) returns for its 17th season, celebrating Veterans Day early with the documentary “Stray Dog.” The film follows Ron Hall, who gave himself the “Stray Dog” moniker to describe his wandering ways as a man still trying to make sense of his Vietnam experience, four decades after the war’s conclusion.

The film follows Ron in the At Ease RV park that he owns and operates with his new bride, a Mexican immigrant who is trying to teach him Spanish and perhaps get him to relax a little bit and accept and forgive himself. He still rides his motorcycle with fellow veterans, often to events honoring their fallen comrades. ‘‘Stray Dog” was directed by Debra Granik, who was struck

by Ron’s story and personality when she cast him in her Oscarnominated 2010 drama “Winter’s Bone,” a remarkable film probably best known for introducing audiences to a young actress named Jennifer Lawrence.

The second season of “Fargo” (9 p.m., FX, TV-MA) has made interesting use of its historical setting. The year 1979 was chosen for more than just hairstyles, fashion and music.

Racism, feminism and Native American issues have surfaced and state policeman Lou Solverson (Patrick Wilson) seems increasingly convinced that his Vietnam War experiences are something he can’t entirely leave behind.

Earlier in the season, his World War II vet father-in-law (Ted Danson) suggested that some of the violence of that war had followed the soldiers home. And lately Lou has begun to feel haunted, even attributing his wife’s cancer to a pervading poison in the country’s spirit.

Tonight’s episode takes the historical themes of the show to a strange new level when Lou is assigned security detail for presidential candidate Ronald Reagan (Bruce Campbell). Yes, the same Bruce Campbell from the “Evil Dead” movies and the new Starz series “Ash vs Evil Dead.”

Campbell does a credible job as the Gipper, and shares a rather remarkable scene with Wilson.

Alone with the candidate in the men’s room, Lou seeks some kind of understanding of his Vietnam experience, something that political pieties and Hollywood anecdotes fail to provide.

Tonight’s other highlights

Superman’s nemesis targets his cousin on “Supergirl” (7 p.m., CBS, TV-PG).

The first night of the live playoffs on “The Voice” (7 p.m., NBC, TV-PG).

Galavan wants Barbara to target Gordon on “Gotham” (7 p.m., Fox, TV-14).

Greg has harsh words for Rebecca on “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” (7 p.m., CW, TV-14).

fault.

Also, please look into counseling to help you sort through any negative feelings that surface.

Dear Annie: For a number of years, I worked with a man who shared words of wisdom spoken to him on his wedding day.

His brand new fatherin-law told him that he could either be right or he could be happy, but not both.

So my pal developed a reply to his wife which went something like this: “You’re right, Honey, I don’t know how you put up with me. I’m a jerk.”

He realized early on that he didn’t have to “win” an argument.

Instead he “won” his happiness.

Arguments solve nothing. A difference of opinion is OK. If

EDITORIALS

Essential support Kansas University would be a far different place without the generous support of private donors.

T

he record amount of support supplied last year by the Kansas University Endowment Association is a vivid reminder of the vital role private giving plays in the life of the university.

KU Endowment announced last week that it had supplied $184.6 million in fiscal year 2015 to support students, faculty and facilities at KU. That’s a whopping 48 percent more than the previous year.

Several large construction projects contributed to the spike: the $70 million Capitol Federal Hall, which will house the KU School of Business; the $18 million DeBruce Center, which will house the “Original Rules of Basket Ball” penned by James Naismith; and the $11.2 million McCarthy Hall, the new apartment building where the men’s basketball players now live.

In addition to the Endowment investment in campus landscaping, buildings and programs, Endowment dollars also went to help support more than 6,500 students and 190 endowed professors and faculty members at KU. It’s hard to imagine what KU would be without the loyal and growing support of private donors.

Those private dollars have been essential to maintain and increase the university’s level of excellence as the percentage of KU’s operating budget covered by state funding has declined.

In too many cases, legislators have used KU’s robust endowment as an excuse for providing less state funding for the state’s largest public university. Rather than allowing the generosity of private givers to provide the extras KU needs to become a true world-class university, state legislators have forced KU to use private money to pay for basic needs that should be covered by the state.

Figures supplied by the KU Endowment Association show steady increases in support over the last several years, and Endowment officials say they expect that trend to continue. That’s great news for KU, its students and faculty and a tribute to the fundraising ability and stewardship of KU Endowment.

Washington — Among the remarkable facts about Ahmed Chalabi was that after turning Iraq and America upside down and unleashing all the gods and devils of war, he died of natural causes in Baghdad last week.

Few people have changed the course of the last few decades more, through the force of personality, than did Chalabi. Historians will argue the causes and consequences of the Iraq War, but my own guess is that if it hadn’t been for Chalabi, Saddam Hussein or one of his odious sons or henchmen would probably be ruling Iraq today.

Chalabi tirelessly lobbied to convince an America yearning for revenge after 9/11 to destroy his nemesis and that of Iran, his most steadfast patron. Iraqis must judge whether this outcome was better for their country, but it certainly has proved worse for America.

Philosophers have debated for centuries what truly drives history. Is it great men and women and their worldhistorical ideas, as Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel contended? Or is there a deeper force embedded in technology and economics (the “means of production,” as Karl Marx had it) that determines the story? Does God, however named, have a plan?

Chalabi led me to believe that it was individuals who made the difference. There was nothing inevitable about America’s invasion of Iraq and the catastrophic consequences that have flowed from the decision. Like most

“

Chalabi tirelessly lobbied to convince an America yearning for revenge after 9/11 to destroy his nemesis and that of Iran, his most steadfast patron. Iraqis must judge whether this outcome was better for their country, but it certainly has proved worse for America.” big things in life, this happened at the margins.

If Chalabi hadn’t lectured regularly at Professor Fouad Ajami’s class at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies during the 1990s; if Paul Wolfowitz, later the deputy defense secretary, hadn’t been dean of that school then; if Wolfowitz and Vice President Dick Cheney hadn’t been enamored of Chalabi’s call to strike at the heart of Arab power by toppling Saddam; if Cheney hadn’t disdained the CIA, which tried to warn policymakers that Chalabi was unreliable... . None of it was foreordained.

Chalabi was truly an operator — banker, politician, connoisseur, dirty-tricks coordinator and spy all thrown into one. I first met him in 1991 when he was helping international detective Jules Kroll recover Kuwaiti assets stolen by Iraq during its 1990 invasion. I wrote a novel, “The Bank of Fear,” based partly on that research. Chalabi could be uncommonly generous with his time and brilliance, but he had complicated personal agendas, too, which were sometimes well-disguised.

During that time, I met Ayad Allawi, Chalabi’s great rival and eventually Iraq’s deputy prime minister. Over subsequent years, Chalabi grew distant, and by the time of his celebrity in the run-up to the Iraq War, we were barely speaking. My own mistakes in supporting the Iraq invasion, summarized in a 2013 column (http:// wapo.st/1Q7onYe), cannot be explained by Chalabi or his WMD propaganda.

Chalabi, like his Iranian friends, played a long game in Iraq. When I called on him in Baghdad in April 2003, after the U.S. military had accomplished his dream of toppling Saddam, one of his aides barred the door, screaming that I was an “Allawi lover.”

Chalabi emerged, his genial round face peering out from behind the door: “Now, now. We know David,” he said soothingly, taking me by the hand and leading me into his compound. I watched over the next sev-

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 9, 1915: years “After the Neago braska game, IN 1915 what? Win or lose, the next day, Sunday the fourteenth, is University Sunday in the Lawrence churches. Are you planning to go to church that day, Friend Student? Try it this once, if you are not a regular attendant. This special day is set apart for students because many have not been taking advantage of church services.”

eral hours as he insisted that he was the Pentagon’s man in Baghdad, and that other Iraqis seeking U.S. support were out of luck.

The CIA got many things wrong about Iraq, but it had Chalabi right early on. The agency judged him as unreliable — and, more important, a man who had deep links with the revolutionary regime in Iran.

It’s one of the bizarre paradoxes of history that Chalabi was embraced by the proIsrael neo-conservative elite even as he was in contact with an Iran that sought Israel’s destruction. How did that happen? A whole library full of historians probably couldn’t explain it. It wasn’t a conspiracy. It was a mistake.

Chalabi did one thing that was surprising, given his cosmopolitan ways. He stayed on in Iraq, dickering with various factions for a slice of power, hoping always that he would emerge as a compromise candidate for prime minister. He had the quality so lacking in U.S. policy — persistence.

A two-word lesson from this extraordinary life: Be careful. History doesn’t have a “right side” or an ascending path toward the light. Passionate, worldchanging people are sometimes liars, too. Americans need to know more than we do about the Middle East, before we wander into the web of a man as clever and supple as Chalabi.

Republicans need to set policy vision “Where there is no vision, the people perish … “ (Proverbs 29:18, KJV) It was George H.W. Bush who reportedly dismissed an idea from a friend that he should spend time at Camp David thinking about what he might do should he become president. According to a January 26, 1987 article in Time magazine, Bush is said to have dismissed the suggestion with this line: “Oh, the vision thing.”

Now comes the new speaker of the House, Rep. Paul Ryan, who is not only embracing the “vision thing,” but is accusing his fellow Republicans of not having any vision at all.

Appearing last weekend on “Fox News Sunday,” Ryan said, “We’ve been too timid on policy. We’ve been too timid on vision — we have none. We fight over tactics because we don’t have a vision.”

He’s right. Ryan might have also added that for too long Republicans have allowed the left to set the agenda and then spent too much time trying to prove they are not who the Democrats say they are.

Continued Ryan: “We have to have a vision and offer an alternative to this

Cal Thomas tcaeditors@tribune.com

“

Ryan’s visionary approach won’t be risky if he demonstrates how Republican ideas have solved problems.”

country so that they can see that if we get the chance to lead, if we get the presidency and if we keep Congress, this is what it will look like; this is how we’ll fix the problems working families are facing.”

That Ryan has to state what ought to be obvious is further evidence that too many Republicans are politically blind. Appearing the same day on “Face the Nation” on CBS, Ryan added: “We’ve taken plenty of tactical risks here in Congress. I believe it’s time to take some policy risks.”

An indication of the uphill challenge Ryan faces can be

found in a recent New York Times story: “…the two parties do not just disagree on solutions to domestic and foreign policy issues — they do not even agree on what the issues are.”

Here’s a radical idea: Ask the people. A major reason for the cynicism in America and the rise of “outsiders” in the current presidential campaign may be that most voters think members of Congress care more about their careers than the people they are supposed to represent.

According to a July Quinnipiac University poll, the most important issues for voters leading into the 2016 general election are the economy, health care and terrorism. Ryan should start with these and propose solutions that have worked in the past and could work again. Republicans have to stop allowing Democrats to set the agenda. There is not a single problem facing this country that can’t be solved if the general welfare is put ahead of the welfare of politicians.

Ryan’s visionary approach won’t be risky if he demonstrates how Republican ideas have solved problems. These ideas work

at the state level, where Republican governors and legislators are cutting taxes, streamlining government and creating jobs. He should lead a team off defense and into offense, promoting policies that offer hope, optimism and success, rather than policies that may sound and feel good at the moment. The increasingly (un) Affordable Care Act is just one of numerous government programs that sound good at the start, but don’t live up to the hype.

Ryan and the Republican majority can begin with something his Catholic Church teaches: repentance.

He should acknowledge the mess politicians have made, apologize to taxpayers and voters and vow — yes, vow — to begin to travel a different path. This will also require Americans who have come to expect more from government than it can, or should, deliver also to repent and set off on a new direction.

Too much reliance on government has led to addiction and dependency.

Self-reliance is in America’s DNA, but it may take the equivalent of 20/20 vision to rediscover it.

A backlash to racism on U.S. campuses, reminiscent of the civil rights protests of the 1960s, has been growing louder. In the latest incident, about 30 black football players at the University of Missouri say they won’t participate in team activities until the university system’s president resigns.

Mizzou joins several schools dealing with racially tinged incidents over the past few weeks. uAt Ithaca College in Upstate New York, students say President Tom Rochon has given inadequate responses to several allegedly racist incidents. Students circulated a petition asking for a vote of “confidence” or “no confidence” in the president. uAt Yale University, protests erupted after an Oct. 28 university email warning about racially insensitive Halloween costumes prompted a professor to complain that Yale and other campuses were becoming “places of censure and prohibition.” uAt Berkeley (Calif.) High School, a freshman confessed to leaving a racist message invoking public lynching last week on a school computer, sparking a massive student walkout.

Protesters want University of Missouri System President Tim Wolfe to resign.

pus activists say is President Tim Wolfe’s inadequate response to racial harassment. Most recently, on Oct. 24, a swastika was drawn on a dorm wall with human feces.

The movement comes about 15 months after a white police officer in Ferguson, Mo., shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager.

“There are a lot of complicated things going on here that do relate to Ferguson, but it also relates to, you know, what’s going on in the United States now,” said Berkley Hudson, chairman of the Missouri Faculty Council race relations committee. “When I grew up in Mississippi the same thing happened in the ’60s in a different kind of a way where there’s a real reluctance of people to let go of the attitudes ... they hold.”

In a statement Sunday, Wolfe didn’t mention resigning but said, “It is clear to all of us that change is needed.” He said the university administration had been meeting on how to address the issues.

In November 2014, Arkansas voters approved a ballot measure that barred the state’s elected officials from accepting lobbyists’ gifts.

That hasn’t stopped influence peddlers from continuing to provide meals to lawmakers at the luxurious Capital Hotel or in top Little Rock eateries; the prohibition does not apply to “food or drink available at a planned activity to which a specific governmental body is invited,” so lobbyists can buy meals as long as they invite an entire legislative committee.

Such loopholes are a common part of statehouse culture nationwide, according to the 2015 State Integrity Investigation, a datadriven assessment of state government by the Center for Public Integrity and Global Integrity.

The probe found that in state after state, open records laws are laced with exemptions, and parttime legislators and agency officials engage in glaring conflicts of interests and cozy relationships with lobbyists while feckless, understaffed watchdogs struggle to enforce laws as porous as honeycombs.

Take the Missouri lawmaker who introduced a bill this year — which passed despite a veto by the governor — to prohibit cities from banning plastic bags at grocery stores. The state representative cited concern for shoppers, but he also happens to be state director of the Missouri Grocers Association.

In Delaware, the Public Integrity Commission, which oversees lobbying and ethics laws for the executive branch there, has just two full-time employees. A 2013 report by a special state prosecutor found that the agency was unable “to undertake any serious inquiry or investigation into potential wrongdoing.”

These are among the practices illuminated by the State Integrity Investigation, which measured hundreds of variables to compile transparency and accountability grades for all 50 states. The best grade in the nation, which went to Alaska, is just a C. Only two others earned better than a D+; 11 states received failing grades. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

ETHICS OVERSIGHT IS OFTEN NEGLECTED v CONTINUED FROM 1B

The top of the pack includes bastions of liberal government, including California (ranked 2nd with a C), and states with corrupt pasts (Connecticut, 3rd with a C-), where scandals led to significant changes. The bottom includes many Western states that champion limited government, such as Nevada and Wyoming, but also others, including Delaware and dead-last Michigan, that have not adopted the types of ethics and open records laws common in many other states.

The results are “disappointing but not surprising,” said Paula A. Franzese of the Seton Hall University School of Law, former chairwoman of the New Jersey State Ethics Commission. Franzese said that as many states struggle financially, ethics oversight is among the last issues to receive funding.

There has been little progress on these issues since the State Integrity Investigation was first carried out in 2012. Since then, at least 12 states have seen their legislative leaders or top Cabinetlevel officials charged, convicted or resign as a result of ethics or corruption-related scandal.

No state has outdone New York, where 14 lawmakers have left office since the beginning of 2012 because of ethical or criminal issues, according to a count by Citizens Union, an advocacy group.

GRADING THE STATES

The State Integrity Investigation examines the systems that state governments use to prevent corruption and expose it when it does occur, rather than measuring corruption itself.

The 2015 grades are based on 245 questions that ask about key indicators of transparency and accountability and examine both what the laws say and how well they’re implemented.

Journalists in every state scored each of the questions, which ask, for example, whether lawmakers are required to file financial interest disclosures, and also whether they are complete.

The results are both intuitive — an F for New York’s “three men in a room” budget process — and surprising — Illinois earned the best grade in the nation for its procurement practices.

DOWNWARD TREND

Overall, states scored notably worse in this second round. Some of that decline is because of changes to the project, such as the addition of questions asking about “open data” policies, which call on governments to publish information online in formats that are easy to download and analyze. The drop also reflects moves toward greater secrecy in some states.

No state saw its score fall further than New Jersey. New Jersey earned a B+, the best score in the nation, in 2012 thanks to tough ethics and anti-corruption laws that had been passed over the previous decade in response to a series of scandals.

None of that has changed. But journalists, advocates and academics have accused the administration of Gov. Chris Christie of fighting and delaying potentially damaging public records requests and meddling in the affairs of the State Ethics Commission. That’s on top of Bridgegate, the sprawling scandal that began as a traffic jam on the George Washington Bridge but has led to the indictments of one of the governor’s aides and two of his appointees — one of whom pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges. New Jersey dropped to 19th place overall with a D grade.

It’s not all doom and gloom.

Iowa created an independent board with authority to mediate disputes when agencies reject public records requests. Gov. Terry Branstad cited the state’s previous grade from the center when he signed the bill, and the move helped catapult Iowa to first in the nation in the category for access to information, with a C- grade.

In Georgia, good government groups latched on to the state’s worst-in-the-nation rank in 2012 to amplify their ongoing push for changes.

The result was a modest law the following year that created a $75 cap on the value of lobbyists’ gifts to public officials. The change helped boost the state’s score in the category of legislative accountability to a C-, sixth-best in the nation.

States continued to score relatively well in the categories for auditing practices — 29 earned Bor better — and for budget trans-

parency — 16 got a B- or above.

Unfortunately, such bright spots are the exceptions.

ACCESS DENIED

In 2013, George LeVines submitted a request for records to the Massachusetts State Police asking for controlled substance seizure reports at state prisons dating back seven years. LeVines, who at the time was assistant editor at Muckrock, a news website and records-request repository, soon received a response from the agency saying he could have copies of the reports, but they would cost him $130,000. Though LeVines is quick to admit that his request was extremely broad, the figure shocked him nonetheless.

“I wouldn’t have ever expected getting that just scot-free,” he said. But $130,000? “It’s insane.”

LeVines withdrew his request.

The Massachusetts State Police

“We will not cut corners for the purpose of expediency or economy if doing so” could release information such as medical or criminal records, he wrote.

In Massachusetts, the Legislature and the judicial branch are at least partly exempt from state public records law. The Bay State earned an F for public access to information. So did 43 other states.

Though every state in the nation has open records and meetings laws, they’re typically shot through with holes and exemptions and usually have essentially no enforcement mechanisms, beyond the court system, when agencies refuse to comply. Public officials charge excessive fees to discourage requestors. Often, citizens are unable to quickly and affordably resolve appeals.

“We’re seeing increased secrecy throughout the country at the state and federal level,” said David Cuillier, director of the University of Arizona’s School of Journalism and an expert on open records laws. “It’s getting worse every year.”

In January, The Wichita Eagle reported that Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback’s budget director had used his private email address to send details of a proposed budget to the private email accounts of fellow staff members and to a pair of lobbyists. He later said he did so because he and the rest of the staff were home for the holidays.

In May, Brownback acknowledged that he, too, used a private email account to communicate with staff, meaning his correspondence was not subject to the state’s public records laws. A state council is studying how to close the loophole.

Bridgegate led to the indictments of one of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s aides and two of his appointees. has become a notorious steel trap of information — it has charged tens of thousands of dollars or even, in one case, $2.7 million to produce documents.

Dave Procopio, a spokesman for the State Police, said in an

email that the department is committed to transparency but that its records are laced with sensitive information that’s exempt from disclosure and that reviewing the material is time-consuming and expensive.

Governments write ethics laws for a reason; public officials can’t always be trusted to do the right thing. The trouble is, a law is only as good as its enforcement, and the entities responsible for overseeing ethics are often impotent and ineffective.

In many states, a complex mix of legislative committees, standalone commissions and law enforcement agencies police the ethics laws. More often than not, the State Integrity Investigation shows, those entities are underfunded, subject to political interference or are simply unable or unwilling to initiate investigations and issue sanctions when rules are broken. Or at least that’s as far as the public can tell: Many operate largely in secret.

The Tennessee Ethics Commission, for example, rose in 2006 out of the ashes of an FBI bribery probe. In its decade of operation, the commission has never issued a penalty as a result of an ethics complaint against a public official (it did issue one to a lobbyist). The dearth of actions is impossible to assess because the complaints become public only if four of six commissioners decide they warrant investigation. Of 17 complaints received in 2013 and 2014, only two are public.

“There just haven’t been that many valid complaints alleging wrongdoing,” said Drew Rawlins, executive director of the Bureau of Ethics and Campaign Finance, which includes the commission.

In Kansas, staff shortages mean the state’s Governmental Ethics Commission is unable to fully audit lawmakers’ financial disclosures, according to Executive Director Carol Williams.

The State Integrity Investigation found that in two-thirds of all states, ethics agencies or committees routinely fail to initiate investigations or impose sanctions when necessary, often because they’re unable to do so without first receiving a complaint.

“Many of these laws are out of date. They need to be revised,” said Robert Stern, who spent decades as president of the Center for Governmental Studies, which worked with local and state governments to improve ethics, campaign-finance and lobbying laws until it shut in 2011.

Stern, who is helping to write a ballot initiative that would update California’s ethics statutes, said that although he thinks the State Integrity Investigation grades are unrealistically harsh, they do reflect the fact that state lawmakers have neglected their responsibilities when it comes to ethics and transparency. “It’s very, very difficult for legislatures to focus on these things and improve them because they don’t want these laws, they don’t want to enforce them, and they don’t want to fund the people enforcing them.”

IN BRIEF 2nd cyclone in week hit island near Yemen The second cyclone in a week slammed into an island off Yemen’s coast Sunday with 127-mph winds, the equivalent of a Category 3 hurricane, killing at least two people, officials said.

Cyclone Megh hit the eastern portion of the Yemeni island of Socotra, AccuWeather said. Megh is forecast to move toward the mainland of Yemen, likely hitting as a tropical storm or depression Tuesday or Wednesday, according to AccuWeather.

Socotra, population 44,000, is a small island in the Arabian Sea, about 240 miles off the coast of Yemen.

Preliminary reports indicate that two people were killed by the storm, the World Health Organization tweeted Sunday.

Megh follows Cyclone Chapala, which hit Yemen last Tuesday, killing at least nine. More than 36,000 people were displaced by the storm, the U.N. said.

Sanders says he didn’t seek Obama opponent

Bernie Sanders says he’s had disagreements with President Obama but did not work to gin up a Democratic primary opponent against him in 2012.

“I worked very hard to see Barack Obama elected,” Sanders said Sunday on ABC’s This Week.

Democratic opponent Martin O’Malley criticized the Vermont senator for talking about a primary challenge to the president in 2012. “When President Obama was running for re-election, I was glad to step up and work very hard for him, while Sen. Sanders was trying to find someone to primary him,” O’Malley said at a Democratic forum Friday.

In his ABC interview, Sanders noted that he discussed criticism of Obama on his radio show, and that in the run-up to 2012 he said people had the right to challenge the president if they wanted to.

But that doesn’t mean he worked against Obama, and that idea is “categorically false,” Sanders said.

OBAMA, NETANYAHU HOPE TO MOVE PAST DIFFERENCES IN MEETING Both sides say they can find common ground

President Obama meets with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office on Oct. 1, 2014.

Gregory Korte USA TODAY

WASHINGTON As the White House prepares for a meeting between President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, there’s one thing Obama administration officials concede from the outset: They’ve had their differences.

“Obviously there have been occasions when we’ve had disagreements, and that’s well-known,” U.S. Ambassador to Israel Daniel Shapiro told reporters at the start of a press briefing previewing the visit. But he insisted those disagreements wouldn’t prevent the two leaders from making progress on a wide range of security issues involving Iran, Syria and the Palestinian conflict.

WIN MCNAMEE, GETTY IMAGES

The main area of disagreement has been on Obama’s decision to sign a nuclear deal with Iran. The agreement, which was formally adopted last month by the U.S., Iran and five other nations, will lift sanctions in return for assurances by Iran that it will scale down its nuclear weapons program. But there’s also tension over Netanyahu’s tepid support of the two-state solution to the Palestinian conflict that has long

been at the heart of U.S. foreign policy in the region.

And that means Obama has had to accept that there will be no resolution to the conflict for the remainder of his presidency, deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes said.

But that “in no way diminishes our very fervent belief that the two-state solution is the one way to achieve the lasting security, peace and dignity that the Israeli

and Palestinian people deserve.”

The two leaders will also hammer out a new 10-year framework for security cooperation, including some talk of specific weapons systems.

The meeting also comes in the wake of a kerfuffle in the Israeli media over the opinions of Netanyahu’s new communications director.

In a posting on Facebook, Ran Baratz said Obama’s response to Netanyahu’s last visit “is what modern anti-Semitism looks like in Western liberal countries.” He also said Secretary of State John Kerry had the mental capacity of a 12-year-old.

Netanyahu has called those comments “inappropriate” and has apologized.

Rhodes said he wouldn’t expect the issue to come up when the two leaders meet in the Oval Office on Monday morning.

“President Obama will have a very substantive agenda to pursue with the prime minister.”

People line up to cast their votes at a polling station in Sittwe, Rakhine State, on Sunday as voters across Burma braved long lines to take part in an election pitting the army-backed establishment against an opposition led by Aung San Suu Kyi.

In Burma, millions take first steps into democracy In first national election since 1990, Aung San Suu Kyi finally is able to cast a vote

“If the outcome is credible and without any vote fixing, then the Burmese people may be very surprised.”

Journalist Aung Zaw

Thomas Maresca

Special for USA TODAY RANGOON, BURMA Millions of Burmese voted Sunday in their first contested national elections in 25 years to bring this country from long-time military rule toward democracy — a day marked by excitement and no reports of major violence.

Opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi’s party is expected to win parliamentary elections, but preliminary results won’t be available until Monday and could take all week. It was not clear when the final tally will be known.

Suu Kyi, 70, a Nobel laureate who heads the opposition National League for Democracy (NLD), voted Sunday at the polling station near her Rangoon home where she spent 15 years under house arrest during the earlier military dictatorship.

Sunday’s election is the first time Suu Kyi was actually able to vote. She was locked up during the last openly contested vote in 1990, the first election allowed by the junta since it took power in 1962. Her party won that vote by a landslide, but a shocked army refused to recognize the results.

The National League is expected to prevail again against the ruling Union Solidarity and Development Party, which is backed by the military and came to power in 2010 elections, which marked the end of decades of military rule and the installment of a nominally civilian government.

The NLD and other opposition parties boycotted those elections, claiming they were rigged.

“This is my first time voting and I’m very excited,” said Han Myint Kyu, 26, a bookkeeper in Rangoon who waited in line for more than an hour to cast his ballot. “We need to change and de-

mocracy is the best way to do it.”

Burma, also known as Myanmar, still provides obstacles to the opposition. Regardless of the results, the military will hold 25% of the seats in parliament as well as control of the army, police and border affairs. Suu Kyi’s party must win two-thirds of Sunday’s vote to control a majority of parliament’s 498 seats.

“We are expecting that the NLD is likely to win a plurality but not an absolute majority,” said Christian Lewis, a political risk analyst with Eurasia Group.

He said the Union Solidarity party only needs a modest showing to form a coalition with the military. “I think (the Union Solidarity party) is only aiming for 10% to 15% at which point the 25% allocated to the military is going to make them very competitive with the NLD,” he said.

Other observers were more optimistic. “If the outcome is credi-

ble and it is without any vote fixing, then I think the Burmese people may be very pleasantly surprised,” said Aung Zaw, founder and editor-in-chief of the news magazine The Irrawaddy.

While Sunday’s election appeared to run smoothly, there have been concerns of irregularities in the voting rolls and disenfranchisement of minorities, especially the Rohingya, a Muslim minority. Human Rights Watch has declared the elections “fundamentally flawed.”

Parliament will choose the president next year. Suu Kyi is barred from becoming president because of a constitutional clause that excludes anyone with close foreign relatives from holding the office. Suu Kyi’s late husband was a British national, and she has two British sons.

Many Californians were puzzled — and some panicked — when a mysterious bright light streaked across the night sky over the weekend.

It turned out to be an unarmed missile fired from a Navy submarine, creating an illumination that whisked across the state and was visible as far as Nevada and Arizona.

A Navy spokesman, Cmdr.

Ryan Perry, told The San Diego Union-Tribune that the Navy Strategic Systems Programs conducted the missile test at sea Saturday from the USS Kentucky, a ballistic missile vessel.

Local TV station KLTA reported that, “Light seen in OC sky was confirmed through JWA tower to be a Naval test fire off the coast,” the Orange County Sheriff’s Department said on Twitter, referring to John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana. The test was part of a scheduled, on-going system evaluation test, Perry told the paper.

ASTRAZENECA ACQUIRES ZS PHARMA FOR $2.7 BILLION U.K. drug giant AstraZeneca plans to acquire smaller drug company ZS Pharma in an allcash deal for about $2.7 billion.

The acquisition is expected to close by the end of 2015.

The annual global sales peak year forecast for ZS-9 exceeds $1 billion, the companies said.

LUFTHANSA STRIKE EXPANDS TO MUNICH A strike by Lufthansa flight attendants has spread to Munich, beyond the German carrier’s Frankfurt and Dusseldorf hubs.

Lufthansa will operate 70% of its planned flights Monday, but will cancel 929 to and from those cities. That will affect about 113, 000 passengers, the airline says.

The cabin crew union’s strike on Friday grounded flights to and from Frankfurt and Dusseldorf, about 10% of Lufthansa’s flights.

With a Sunday break in the strike, the airline said it wanted to resume talks with the union.

The parties are clashing over pension benefits and the union has warned of disruptions stretching well into the week. It’s the largest strike in Lufthansa’s history, the airline says.

INVESTORS: HOW TO PROFIT FROM INTEREST RATE HIKES Matt Krantz

Fed Chair Janet Yellen and her colleagues may raise interest rates in December.

USA TODAY

The Fed just got 271,000 new reasons to boost interest rates.

Investors had better get ready.

The door is wide open for the Federal Reserve to increase short-term interest rates when it meets in December following the report on Friday showing companies added 271,000 jobs in October. If the move in rates comes, it could signal a tectonic shift in the marketplace and prompt investors to tear up the playbook that has basically been printing them money the last few years.

Overnight, higher rates went from a coin toss to a very strong possibility. Futures markets now indicate there’s a 70% chance the Fed takes rates up in December, according to Bloomberg News.

That’s up from Thursday when the implied odds of a rate hike were 56%. Savvy investors know it’s perilous to ignore pending moves by the Fed because higher interest rates can dramatically change the investment climate.

How much? The benchmark Standard & Poor’s 500 index has seen its average gain shrink to 2.4% in the six months following an initial Fed rate hike going back to 1971, says Sam Stovall of S&P Capital IQ. Compare that to the 9.5% average gain in the six months prior to hikes.

Some markets are already behaving like a rate hike is a foregone conclusion. Stocks that have been attractive during the period of practically zero interest rates are suffering now because investors figure the party is just about over. Utilities stocks were hardest hit Friday, with the Utilities Se-

lect Sector SPDR exchange-traded fund falling 3.7%. That’s the largest decline among the 10 sectors in the S&P 500. If interest rates rise, that makes the fat dividend yields traditionally paid by utilities relatively less attractive.

Similarly, real estate investment trusts, which have been hugely popular with investors because of their rich dividends, fell too. The Vanguard REIT ETF dropped 2.9%. Bond investors also felt the pain. The Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF lost 0.4%.

Things could be close to changing. Investors seem to think fi-

nancials could be the winners.

The ability to boost interest rates on loans — as long as demand remains strong — could lift bank profits.

The Financial Select Sector SPDR is up 0.9% Friday, the best performer of the 10 industry sectors. But longer term, financial stocks have been laggards when the Fed starting to lift rates.

Playing this major market shift will keep investors occupied the next couple months as the Fed goes from background risk to front-burner concern. There will be places to make money, though.

Energy, consumer goods, food stocks and ultimately utilities wind up being the best areas for investors during periods of rising rates, says Robert Johnson, president of the American College of Financial Services and co-author of Invest with the Fed. Commodity prices also tend to be strong, due to increased inflation, which in turn helps emerging markets stocks. Many companies in emerging nations are closely tied to commodity prices.

But one thing is for sure. This is not the time to fight the Fed.

Nothing ‘Oldie’ is new again, thanks to digital times Michael Wolff

@MichaelWolffNYC Michael@burnrate.com USA TODAY

MEDIA

There are two, and maybe only two, strategies for success in media: Do what everybody else is doing, or do the

opposite.

What everybody wants to do now, of course, is forge a digital strategy — that is, a new digital strategy, to be distinguished from the former failed one. This resulted last week in a movement of digital deck chairs: Time’s digital guy, Scott Havens, went to Bloomberg, and NBC hired Nick Ascheim from BBC America, showing Julian March and Richard Wolffe, who had brief digital tenures respectively at NBC and MSNBC, the door.

Everybody wants to reach Millennials. Hence, last week, A&E gave Vice one of its cable channels to run.

For a true instance of doing something profoundly contrary, there was Alexander Chancellor, 75, a British editor who was in the USA for the past few weeks to promote his magazine, The Oldie.

The Oldie is a small phenomenon of British publishing, a growing and profitable magazine that celebrates a certain sort of crankiness and deftly turns its back on any interest in the young, or even in being young.

Indeed, reading The Oldie is not so much to feel that you’re old — not like, for instance, Modern Maturity, with its rapturous celebration of retirement possibilities — but to feel that the young and their aspirations and enthusiasms do not exist. Or at least don’t impinge on the world in any meaningful way.

The unstated but powerful message of The Oldie is a deep satisfaction, even sense of value, in not having to keep up.

This is relevant as a media model, as well as a media message.

The most elemental part of a media business used to be the precise articulation of whom a media product was for. If you

could describe an audience and have substantial insight into its most powerful longings and were able to speak to its sense of self — its conceits, prejudices and aspirations — that was a potentially very profitable business. Think Fox News, The Economist, Cosmopolitan, Car and Driver.

That model — a kind of license to print money if your particular media brand became the most efficient way to reach a desirable group — has largely been upended or cast aside in the digital media age. The digital model has evolved from focused audience to

undifferentiated traffic. It’s a pure numbers game, and the biggest number wins, meaning a goal of something like world conquest rather than the hope of a highly valued circle of devotees.

Indeed, media companies that once might have had a keen concern about the nature of their audiences now also have to cater to digital ubiquity, always at confusing odds with core identity.

Hence, the musical chairs aspects of digital directors.

They are hungrily hired and often resentfully fired because their job is so deeply foreign to the established character of a media business.

The Oldie needn’t concern itself with any of this. Other than via a subscription offer, it doesn’t really exist online. To the extent it does, it still boasts of its former editor, ousted several years ago.

Indeed, everything about The Oldie is designed, consciously or not, to protect its readers from evidence that the world has meaningfully changed from, say, 1975. At least not in terms of look and feel and general pace and overall functionality.

This might seem, if not an obvious death wish, at least eccentrically British. Indeed, Prince Charles reportedly is a great fan of the magazine. But this peculiarity — turning its face from the righteous future — makes it in this flattened age sui generis.

One hardly knows whom Time or Vanity Fair or Rolling Stone or even The New Yorker or The New York Times, all shadows of their former clarity, are speaking to anymore.

But in the quickest perusal, The Oldie neatly suggests its reader, a type many of us will be lucky to become: genial but skeptical; not so much angry at the world around us but having seen it all before. A laughingstock perhaps, but a contended one.

Its message, too, is quite valuable and business-minded. That is, the headlong pursuit of newness and transformation is a highrisk one.

Some may succeed and change the world, but most won’t. What’s more, the medium is after all the message: In this your fate may be sealed, as print is an expression at odds with digital.

TRAVEL

ALL ABOARD FLORIDA

An artist rendering of the Orlando train station that will service the express passenger line between Miami and Orlando.

New Fla. passenger train service to quickly link Miami and Orlando Express rail line — not high-speed — to start in 2017 Nancy Trejos USA TODAY

A privately owned and operated passenger rail service is on track to begin connecting travelers in four major Florida cities by mid-2017.

Today, All Aboard Florida is slated to reveal that the new express inter-city train travel service, which will cost more than $3 billion to build, will be called the Brightline.

Brightline trains will connect Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and Orlando along a 235-mile route. The stretch from Miami to Orlando will last three hours, comparable to what it takes to get to the airport, go through security and fly, developers say.

The trains, designed by the Rockwell Group, are being built in Sacramento by Siemens. Construction has begun on stations in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach and on connecting urban centers that developers hope will become dining and shopping destinations. Another station will be next to Orlando International Airport.

All Aboard Florida is a wholly owned subsidiary of Florida East Coast Industries, which is involved in a range of infrastructure, transportation and real estate businesses. The project is being funded by private investors through the issuance of $1.75 billion in tax-exempt bonds and directly from the parent company.

The company expects to become profitable in the first couple of years as its adds more trains and ridership increases.

All Aboard Florida and tourism officials say the trains and their stations could transform travel throughout Florida, one of the country’s most populous states.

Providing trains as an alternative could ease congestion on the roads and alleviate pressure on crowded airports.

“Half of our business is international,” says William Talbert, president and CEO of the Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau. “To connect Miami and those other three communities by train makes it convenient, affordable, clean and safe to travel.

It gives the visitor options that we haven’t had before.”

Not everyone is on board with the new train service, however.

Citizens Against Rail Expansion, a coalition of residents and community leaders in South Florida, argues that the rail system will compromise public safety. A

ALL ABOARD FLORIDA

The new passenger rail system will be called Brightline and run along a 235-mile route. The project will cost $3 billion. number of hospitals along the route are on one side of the tracks while first responders are on the other, says Stephen Ryan, an attorney representing CARE. What is now a single-track system will likely change to a double-track at various points along the way, which will pose a danger for school buses trying to cross over, Ryan says. The number of freight trains will also increase, he says. Another reason for concern that the group has brought up: It will harm the maritime industry because it will increase wait times at drawbridges that the train will cross. All that will result in a drop in property values, which will impact tax rolls, he says.

The group also questions All Aboard Florida’s insistence that the project is fully privately funded. The use of tax-exempt bonds, Ryan says, is essentially a federal subsidy.

“There are profound issues for the local economy,” he says.

All Aboard Florida says that no federal government entity will have exposure to the investment, and that train travel is needed to improve the quality of life.

Trains were the primary mode of transportation in the USA until after World War II, when cars and airlines took over the roads and skies. Federally funded Amtrak has remained the predominant interstate passenger train system, but it does not offer the

kind of high-speed service found in Europe and Asia.

The closest thing the USA has to high-speed trains is Amtrak’s Acela on the northeast corridor, which can go as fast as 150 mph.

Brightline trains will not be highspeed, but its express service will be able to go up to 125 mph.

High-speed rail “takes more money and fully dedicated track and electrification,” says Andy Kunz, president and CEO of the U.S. High Speed Rail Association.

There’s been a recent resurgence in interest in trains, particularly among younger travelers, says Jim Wallington, a train expert at America by Rail, which promotes train travel. “This younger generation is less car prone,” he says. “They are not buying cars like we used to, and they are demanding that there be alternate transportation.”

President Obama’s 2009 stimulus bill proposed billions of dollars in funding to create a true high-speed rail system across the nation. His efforts have stalled amid political opposition.

Privately led efforts are underway to create high-speed rail systems in Texas and between Las Vegas and Los Angeles. A publicly led high-speed rail system is under construction in California.

That will eventually connect Los Angeles and San Francisco in less than three hours.

HOW TO FIX AIR TRAVELERS’ ENTITLEMENT MENTALITY

chris@elliott.org Special for USA TODAY

They’re spoiled.

They’re demanding.

And they’re ruining travel for everyone else.

Don’t take my word for it. That’s what employees say about these guests, which they derisively call “silver spoon” travelers.

Wait, did I just say “ruin” travel? Well, yeah.

That’s what reportedly happened to guests at America’s Best Value Inn in Ludington, Mich., when an entitled guest cut in line at the waffle machine. The other guests flipped, sparking a fistfight that involved at least 30 customers.

Speaking of the buffet line, who can forget the case of Sarah Buffett, an attorney seated in the first-class cabin of a US Airways flight from Charlotte to London this summer? She reportedly downed three glasses of wine and a sleeping pill, became “aggressive” and damaged her seat before trying to break a window with a remote control. The flight had to be diverted to Philadelphia.

Airlines coddle first-class passengers with over-the-top amenities, such as showers, onboard nannies, seats that turn into beds and curbside service in luxury sedans. recent flight who informed her he had “Medallion status.” This entitled passenger demanded she give up her first-class seat, so a friend, seated in economy class, could join him.

“That didn’t happen,” she says.

What’s turning a small group of travelers into spoiled babies? It’s a combination of greed, propaganda and human nature, according to observers. Only a top-to-bottom rethink of this problem can fix it.

Silver spoons can pop up anywhere, of course. But ground zero of the entitlement problem is the first-class section of your next flight.

“I blame my airline for the unending sense of entitlement,” says Brian, who works for a major car-

rier and asked me not to use his full name. He says the situation is out of control. The entitled classes are offered more and more, including dedicated boarding lines on red carpets, bigger seats and curbside service in a luxury sedan. And they are starting to behave like spoiled brats.

“Last week, we had a full Boeing 757, which holds 180 passengers,” he told me. “We had 90 people on the upgrade list ... competing for 22 seats. The scene at the podium can be fun to watch: Grown men and women acting like children when they don’t get their upgrades. I have great admiration for those poor gate agents.”

He’s not exaggerating. Abbie Unger, a recently retired flight attendant, remembers asking a pas-

u Lessen the divide. On many airlines, the division between first class and economy class is simply too wide. The contrast is so stark that adults throw tantrums if they don’t get upgrades.

It’s time for regulators to mandate a minimum amount of legroom and seat width in the back of the plane, to keep the divide from becoming too disruptive. u Reform loyalty programs. Delta Air Lines and United Airlines took significant steps when they made their programs based on how much their passengers spend. Maybe it’s also time to pull the plug on the credit card point programs, which create trillions of unredeemable points and miles, and inflate travelers’ expectations. u Tell them to behave. Airlines, and indeed all travel companies, could benefit from setting basic behavior standards. Don’t cut in line. Don’t lean your seat all the way back into someone else’s personal space. Say “please” and “thank you.” If they don’t tell them what they expect, how can anyone know?

“She stomped her feet and threw a fit,” she recalls.

It helps to understand what’s happening behind the scenes.

Airlines don’t make enough from economy-class passengers, but they can charge a hefty premium to passengers who want a little more comfort. On some routes, a first-class seat can cost 10 times more than a coach seat.

So airlines coddle these passengers with over-the-top amenities, such as onboard nannies, seats that turn into beds, and showers. They present them with platinum cards that certify their extra special-ness. Loyalty program fanblogs then reinforce the

dangerous idea that your elite status doesn’t just mean you deserve to be treated better than everyone else but that you are better.

These unrealistic expectations can lead to an onboard altercation, then spill over into the rest of the travel experience, sparking everything from road rage to waffle rage. Truth is, we are all just passengers going to the same place.

If you set out on your next trip thinking you’re better than the rest of the travelers, stop it. This growing class divide will tear us apart.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

Rare female superhero draws range of viewers Gary Levin USA TODAY

Supergirl has girl power.

Maybe it’s the title. Maybe it’s that female viewers are hungering for female superheroes.

But the latest comics-inspired TV series has an audience that’s nearly evenly split between men and women. That’s a rarity in the male-dominated superhero genre. By contrast, 60% of the adult TV audience for CW’s The Flash is male, as are 57% of viewers for Fox’s Gotham, which airs opposite Supergirl (Mondays, 8 p.m. ET/PT).

The only other comic-book series to have nearly equal numbers of men and women is the last to feature a female lead: Marvel’s Agent Carter, which returns to ABC in early 2016. A third, Marvel’s Jessica Jones, arrives Nov. 20 on Netflix, but the streaming site doesn’t share information about how many viewers (and of which gender) are watching.

“There is such a limited supply of female superheroes, it would be very appealing for women to watch,” says Brad Adgate, analyst at ad firm Horizon Media. A show that can “attract both genders, a dual audience, bodes well for its success.”

Supergirl herself may be 24, but Supergirl also attracts the oldest audience among costumed crime-fighters, with a median age of 56, compared with 41.9 for The Flash and about 47 for Gotham and ABC’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. That’s likely a function of the show’s home on senior-friendly CBS. (About 54% of prime-time TV watchers are women.)

But producers say the series, lighter and less mythology-driven than many of its counterparts, is aimed at everyone.

“It’s nice to see that there are all kinds of people checking it out,” says executive producer Greg Berlanti, who’s also behind CW’s Arrow and The Flash. “My favorite emails and tweets are the ones where different generations from the same family are watching and enjoying it together.”

Supergirl, which stars Melissa Benoist in the title role, premiered Oct. 26 with 13 million viewers but fell about 30% last week, when it no longer followed TV’s top comedy, The Big Bang Theory. But it still ranked as the top superhero series. A third episode airs Monday night.

‘Spectre’ is lethal; ‘Peanuts’ animate No. 2 Box office bounces back; ‘Goosebumps,’ ‘Martian’ still strong Bryan Alexander @BryAlexand USA TODAY

James Bond had a license to kill at the box office and executed that mission with a $73 million tally, according to studio estimates.

Daniel Craig’s fourth turn as James Bond easily outpaced a strong showing for The Peanuts Movie, which still thrived at $45 million in its debut.

Both movies provided a needed spark to a box office that has been slumping — down dramatically last weekend vs. the year before in what was an overall tough October for new releases.

“It’s a great story, James Bond and Charlie Brown, two iconic characters over 50 years old,”

SONY

Daniel Craig drove Spectre to the second-largest Bond opening. says Paul Dergarabedian, senior box office analyst for Rentrak. “It took Bond and Brown to get the box office back on track.”

Spectre is the second-biggest Bond opening behind 2012’s Skyfall, which took $88.4 million.

The U.S. tally fell short of analysts’ initial expectations for the weekend, following Spectre’s record opening in the U.K. “Unquestionably, this is a big, big success,” Dergarabedian says.

The 3-D computer animated Peanuts marked a strong return for the beloved comic strip characters. Director Steve Martino and screenwriter/producer Craig Schulz, son of Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz, carefully developed a film that honored fans.

“They obviously took their time with this project and did it right,” says Jeff Bock, box office analyst for Exhibitor Relations.

“Peanuts will have legs through

the holiday season. All signs point for this to be the beginning of a new Peanuts franchise.”

Matt Damon and The Martian continued to excel with $9.3 million and third place. The Ridley Scott film has $197.1 million total.

Jack Black as children’s horror author R.L. Stine in Goosebumps continued to pull in young audiences, taking fourth place with $7 million ($66.5 million total).

Tom Hanks and director Steven Spielberg’s Cold War collaboration Bridge of Spies rounded out the top five with $6.1 million for a total of nearly $55 million.

Awards hopefuls Spotlight, about The Boston Globe’s investigation into the Catholic Church child abuse scandal, and 1950s drama Brooklyn, starring Irish actress Saoirse Ronan, performed well in limited openings. In five theaters, the two movies averaged $60,400 and $36,200 per screen respectively.

Final numbers are expected Monday.

BIG 12 SOCCER FINAL

‘Cruel’ end

What, Self worry?

Not about 3s

KANSAS UNIVERSITY’S AURÉLIE GAGNET, LEFT, WALKS AWAY AS TEXAS TECH PLAYERS PLAYER CELEBRATE their 1-0 victory over the Jayhawks in the Big 12 tournament championship game on Sunday in Kansas City, Missouri.

Red Raiders end Kansas’ run, 1-0

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Kansas City, Mo. — Kansas University’s soccer team’s deepest run in the Big 12 tournament in school history ended with a 1-0 loss to Texas Tech in the conference championship game Sunday at Swope Soccer Village.

Texas Tech freshman Gwennie Puente scored in the 85th minute, as the Red Raiders capitalized on a rare missed save from KU goalkeeper Maddie Dobyns.

TTU senior Caity Heap fired a shot in from the top of the 18-yard box that deflected off of Dobyns to Tech freshman Duke Jordan. Jordan collected the rebound and dished it to Puente for the game’s lone goal.

“The opportunity that they got I think was a little bit of a mistake by us, but they capitalized on it,” KU coach Mark Francis said. “Our sport sometimes is cruel.”

The sixth-seeded Jayhawks had plenty of chances to score on the Red Raiders,

especially in the first half. KU outshot TTU, 15-11, with 11 of the Jayhawks’ attempts coming before the break. Kansas’ best chance came in the 28th minute, when senior Liana Salazar split two TTU defenders before getting fouled in the 18-yard box to earn a penalty kick. Salazar tried to put it in the lower-right corner, but Tech goalie Lauren Watson guessed correctly to keep KU scoreless.

“That PK, the odds are with the kicker,” Watson said. “I just tried to calm my-

self down, take a deep breath and try to cover as much of the goal as I could.”

Sophomore Kayla Morrison and Salazar tallied a team-best three shots apiece for the Jayhawks. Salazar also positioned KU for two other golden opportunities — first with a cross from outside of the box into Morrison that was headed high in the 29th minute, and again in the 82nd when she sent a through ball to Ashley Williams.

Jayhawks, Schneider down familiar foe

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

For nine of the 12 seasons Brandon Schneider served as head women’s basketball coach at Emporia State University, he did so with the help of then-assistant Jory Collins.

However, Schneider, in his first season as coach at Kansas University, wasn’t exactly excited about facing his longtime cohort and buddy Collins, who replaced him at ESU, in an exhibition Sunday afternoon at Allen Fieldhouse.

The two talk and text as often as they can, so Schneider sort of felt like he had just defeated a family member following KU’s 68-57 victory.

“He knows how I was gonna feel had we lost,” Schneider said of Collins, whose Hornets enter the 2015-16 season ranked No. 1 in Division II and gave the Jayhawks a scare in the first half. “I know how he’s feeling right now. You just don’t wish that on people that you care about.”

Schneider, who went 30672 and led ESU to the 2010

national championship, said it felt strange competing against a program that still means a lot to him.

“Whether it’s administration in that athletic department, or whether it’s the fan base, I am where I am today because of many of those people,” the new KU coach said. “I will forever have a little bit of Vegas gold in my blood, I promise you.”

It became easier for John Young/Journal-World Photo Schneider to forget about those feelings — and his KANSAS UNIVERSITY COACH BRANDON friend Collins — for a little SCHNEIDER, LEFT, and the KU bench celebrate in the Jayhawks’ 68-57 exhibition victory over Please see KU WOMEN, page 3C Emporia State on Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse.

Bill Self wasn’t alarmed at Kansas University’s 4-of19 three-point shooting in Wednesday’s basketball exhibition opener against Pittsburg State.

“That’s one thing I’m not worried about,” Self, KU’s 13th-year coach, said Sunday of his Jayhawks, who hit 21.1 percent from three and 58.5 percent of their twopoint tries in an 89-66 victory over the Gorillas. “ E v e n UP NEXT though we shot it mis- Who: Fort erably from Hays State the three- vs. Kansas point line, When: 7 p.m.

I’m not wor- Tuesday ried about Where: Allen the shooting Fieldhouse at all. I think one of the TV: TWCSC strengths of (WOW! chanour team is nels 37, going to be 226) our perimeter shooting,” Self added.

The Jayhawks practiced once Friday and twice Saturday before taking Sunday off. Next exhibition is Tuesday versus Fort Hays State, set for a 7 p.m. tipoff in Allen.

“The other day we were 27-of-44 in our scrimmage from three (for 61.4 percent),” Self said after Wednesday’s game. “It’s fools gold because you don’t play as hard defensively because everything is going in. This was great for us to learn to be exposed what our weaknesses are, because if you make shots, you’re not exposed. The biggest thing is we have to play with more energy and athleticism.”

Self said effort has been intense at practice since the Pitt State game.

“We’ve gotten better since our last game,” Self said. “I thought we played very poorly in a lot of areas in that game (including staying in front of perimeter players). Hopefully we’ll be improved this week.

“I’m not overly pleased,” he added of workouts. “I think some key players, especially some returning guys, can step it up another level.”

Self said forward Landen Lucas, who was slowed by a sprained ankle versus Pitt State, “is fine. He’ll be 100 percent (for Tuesday).” Self said junior Wayne Selden Jr., “was sick on Saturday and missed a day. Everybody should be ready to go tomorrow (today).”

Reesing on hand for loss to ’Horns

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Former Kansas University quarterback Todd Reesing made a career out of scrambling around the field, avoiding big hits and making big plays.

Saturday night, at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin, Texas, Reesing watched another KU quarterback

attempt to do the same thing.

Things did not go quite as well for KU freshman Ryan Willis, who made his fifth consecutive start and took punishing blow after punishing blow in a 59-20 loss.

But the man who holds all of KU’s major passing records came away impressed by the first-year QB’s talent and toughness.

“I think he looks pretty

good,” Reesing told the Journal-World at halftime.

“He’s a true freshman, and you can tell he doesn’t always know how to change the protection. I remember my first game as a freshman.

You end up just saying, ‘Hut, there’s a blitz, what am I supposed to do? OK, I gotta beat this guy one-onone.’ I had no idea how to do it. True story.”

Reesing’s quick evalua-

tion of Willis came through the eyes of a seasoned veteran who spent three full seasons learning the nuances of playing QB in the Big 12.

“He’s still a little slow out there,” Reesing said. “And on those four-yard outs, which you should hit every Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo time, the ball comes out low on the ones he misses, and FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY QUARTERBACK you can tell that’s just him TODD REESING WATCHES from the sidelines during the second quarter of KU’s 59-20 loss to Please see FOOTBALL, page 3C Texas on Saturday in Austin, Texas.

Johnson charges to victory Fort Worth, Texas (ap) — Brad Keselowski was dominating at Texas, leading lap after lap and getting oh so close to a victory that would have given him one of the four championship-contending spots in the Chase for the Sprint Cup finale.

Until Texas fall favorite Jimmie Johnson came charging after the final restart.

Keselowski led a track-record 312 of 334 laps Sunday after starting from the pole, but couldn’t keep Johnson from winning the Texas fall race for the fourth straight year.

“Just one step short of having the awesome day we needed to have,” Keselowski said. “I’m not sure exactly how to feel about it at the moment. The 48 car had so much speed those last 10 laps.”

With the already-eliminated Johnson getting his 75th career victory, three spots are still up for grabs at Phoenix, the last race before the Nov. 22 finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. The only championship contender set is retiring fourtime champion Jeff Gordon, the Martinsville winner last week and Johnson’s teammate at Hendrick Motorsports.

Kyle Busch leads the points race for at least two of the spots, ahead of defending Chase champion Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. Carl Edwards is next, followed by Keselowski, Kurt Busch and Joey Logano.

“It’s not a must-win situation for us like it is for some other guys,” said Kyle Busch, who finished fourth Sunday. “Couldn’t be more pleased with the position we got right now.”

After the final restart with 18 laps left, Keselowski and Truex were side-by-side, and even made contact at one point before Truex went in front very briefly.

Keselowski almost as quickly got back in front, and Johnson also went charging past Truex into second place and right on the leader’s tail. Truex lost his power steering in those closing laps, and slipped to finish eighth.

Johnson kept pushing and on the backstretch on lap 331, he finally got past when Keselowski got really loose out of the second turn.

Johnson went on to win by more than a second.

“That was the first I had seen him that vulnerable all day. I just kept the pressure on him, kept searching for line,” Johnson said.

“I did everything I could to hold him off but he was way faster that last run,” Keselowski said. “As I sit right now, and maybe I’ll change my mind, I don’t know what I would have done differently, or could have done differently.”

Minutes after the race, suspended driver Matt Kenseth tweeted, “Good work @JimmieJohnson! Textbook pass for the win at the end of the race when someone is trying to take your lane. #quintessential” After Logano chalked up contact with Kenseth at Kansas last month as aggressive racing for a win, NASCAR chairman Brian France referred to the move as “quintessential.”

RUSSELL KNOX CELEBRATES ON THE 18TH HOLE of the final round of the HSBC Champions golf tournament Sunday at the Sheshan International Golf Club in Shanghai.

Knox wins Worlds in debut; Woodland 23rd Shanghai — Russell Knox raised both arms in the air, closed his eyes and tilted his head toward the heavens as if he couldn’t believe what he had just done.

Dating to when the World Golf Championship began in 1999, no one had ever won in his debut. Knox wasn’t even eligible for the HSBC Champions until he got in 10 days ago as an alternate, and then it was a mad scramble in Malaysia to get a Chinese visa in time to play.

Walking out of the Sheshan International clubhouse on Sunday with a share of the 54hole lead, Knox noticed a billboard with names and images of past winners at the HSBC Champions — Phil Mickelson and Martin Kaymer, Dustin Johnson and Bubba Watson.

“Everyone who wins this tournament is a superstar,” Knox said. “I knew this would be the hardest day in my life.”

For a 30-year-old from Scotland who had never won in 92 previous tries on the PGA Tour, Knox made it look like a breeze. He broke out of a five-way tie for the lead with two quick birdies to start the back nine and was flawless the rest of the way for a 4-under 68 and a two-shot victory over Kevin Kisner.

“I always thought I was going to win a big one for my first one,” he said. “But this is going to take a long time to sink in.”

He played alongside Johnson, whose power can be so intimidating that Knox didn’t watch him hit a shot for 12 holes. In the group ahead was Jordan Spieth, on his way back to No. 1 in the world. The cheers were for Li Haotong, the 20-year-old from Shanghai who received rockstar treatment during a wild final round that ended with the best finish ever by a Chinese player on the PGA Tour.

“Incredible for me this week,” Li said. “This for me is very, very big.”

Imagine how it felt for Knox, whose unexpected trip to China ended with a surprising victory.

Knox finished at 20-under 268 and earned $1.4 million, along with perks that include his first trip to the Masters in April.

“I got married on Saturday of the Masters,” he said. “What a great wedding anniversary we’re going to have.”

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot his best round of the tournament — a 65 — and moved up 25 spots Sunday into a tie for 23rd place. He finished 10 back and pocketed $75,750.

Andrade edges Langer Scottsdale, Ariz. — Billy Andrade won the season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship, beating Champions Tour points winner Bernhard Langer with a birdie on the first hole of a playoff.

Andrade two-putted from the back fringe on the par-5 18th, holing a 21⁄2-footer for his third victory of the year on the 50-and-over tour.

The 51-year-old Andrade closed with a 6-under 64 at Desert Mountain, making a 10-foot birdie putt on 18 to post at 14-under 266.

Langer missed a chance to win on 18 in regulation when his 18-foot eagle putt lipped out.

He finished with a 67, then failed to get up-anddown for birdie from the right greenside rough in the playoff.

Castro leads Sanderson Jackson, Miss. — Roberto Castro clung to a one-stroke lead in the Sanderson Farms Championship after playing the first six holes in the suspended third round in 2-over par.

Play was suspended because of darkness at the Country Club of Jackson and will resume this morning, with the final round following immediately.

It has been a soggy, stop-and-start tournament that has required plenty of patience.

Several players had their second rounds stretch over three days from Friday to Sunday as rain swept through the area.

Castro was at 13 under. He started play Sunday with a four-stroke lead, but quickly fell back toward the pack with bogeys on Nos. 3 and 4. They were his first two bogeys of the tournament.

Ahn LPGA playoff winner Shima, Japan — Sun-Ju Ahn won the Toto Japan Classic for her first LPGA Tour victory and 20th Japan LPGA title, beating fellow South Korean player Ji-Hee Lee and American Angela Stanford with a birdie on the first hole of a playoff.

The 28-year-old Ahn closed with a 5-under 67 at Kintetsu Kashikojima to match Stanford and Lee at 16-under 200.

Stanford also shot 67, and Lee had a 66.

Kansas lands D-line pledge

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas University football coach David Beaty has talked all season about the difficulty associated with upgrading the defensive line, a position where the Jayhawks are thin and inexperienced.

Sunday, Beaty and company took a step toward changing that when they received an oral commitment from DeeIsaac Davis, a 6-foot3, 290-pound defensive tackle from Highland Community College.

Davis, who hails from the Wichita area, attended Eastern Arizona during his first season of college football. He recorded 76 tackles and earned all-conference honors there before moving on to Highland, where this season he has recorded 76 tackles and five sacks.

not having the calmness to just take the snap and throw. But I like him. He’s a nice player with some talent.”

Before being removed from the blowout in the second half by KU coach David Beaty, who said he was trying to prevent further damage to his young QB’s injured groin, Willis finished 17-of-34 passing for 214 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. He also ran a dozen times for 38 yards but lost 37 yards in sacks and took a heavy does of punishment from the UT defense throughout the night.

Asked if he thought the groin injuries Willis suffered Saturday night would cause Willis to miss some time, Beaty pointed to the freshman’s toughness.

“You know, I don’t know,” Beaty admitted.

“He went back in, but I finally just pulled him.

He was trying, and that last ball he just couldn’t get much on it. The kid was trying everything he could. It just wasn’t fair to him to keep leaving him in there. He battled his tail off. I’m proud of him for that. But we’ve said it every week, he’s gotta do a better job of taking care of the football.”

Punt gaffe clarification Before leaving Austin, Texas, The JournalWorld spoke with one of the Big 12 officials who worked Saturday’s KUTexas game to get a clarification on the situation surrounding the punt that was muffed by Derrick Neal in the first half of KU’s 59-20 loss.

The ruling on the field

Linebackers coach Kevin Kane and D-line coach Calvin Thibodeaux played key roles in recruiting Davis, who informed Beaty of his decision Sunday. He chose Kansas over offers from Idaho and Southern Miss. “(The KU coaches) said they need a three technique player and they like my hands and feel I can go in and contribute right away,” Davis told JayhawkSlant.com’s Jon Kirby. “I am looking forward to getting there and competing.”

NFL ROUNDUP

Perfect Panthers push past Packers passes while playing with a torn ligament in his left thumb, Chris Ivory ran for two scores and the Jets took advantage of late mistakes by the Jaguars.

Brandon Marshall had a 20-yard TD catch after the Jets (5-3) recovered a muffed punt late in the fourth quarter, helping New York end a twogame skid in a messy performance by both sides.

The Associated Press

Panthers 37, Packers 29 Charlotte, N.C. — Cam Newton threw three touchdown passes and ran for another score Sunday, and Carolina took an important step toward securing homefield advantage throughout the NFC playoffs with a victory over Green Bay.

Cavaliers 101, Pacers 97 Cleveland — LeBron James scored 29 points while playing with a bruised quadriceps, and Cleveland beat Indiana Sunday for its sixth straight win.

James took a knee to the leg Friday and said he would get round-theclock treatment so he could play against the Pacers. The treatment paid off as James hit seven free throws down the stretch and found Kevin Love for two key baskets in the final 27 seconds.

Love scored 22 points and had 19 rebounds for the Cavaliers, who haven’t lost since the season opener against Chicago.
