City delays action on bonds for Rock Chalk ———

Commission agrees that public should see documents

Middle school students serve homegrown lunch to state officials

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

West Middle School served up lunch Tuesday for two of the state’s top appointed officials, with much of the food on the menu coming directly out of the school’s own garden. “I think it’s great,�

Agriculture Secretary Dale Rodman said as he munched on a green leaf salad. “We don’t all grow up on a farm anymore, and this is really part of a process of life about where food comes from and how it’s produced and what really happens in

the process, so I think it’s really good.�

Rodman and Kansas Education Commissioner D i a n e Rodman DeBacker came to West to see how a program called “Farm-toSchool� is working in the Lawrence school district.

That’s a program that has been adopted in many states and school districts around the country with the goal of connecting

public schools with local farmers to promote healthy meals in school cafeterias, improve student nutrition and teach students about agriculture and health.

But a few schools in Lawrence have taken the effort a little further by starting their own gardens on school grounds and having students themselves work the garden and harvest the produce.

West Principal Myron Melton said that since 2010, when the program began, the school’s garden has produced more than 10,000 pounds of food. Of that,

he said, 1,650 pounds have gone straight to the school cafeteria. The rest, he said, is sold through The Merc or directly to consumers, with all of the proceeds coming back to the school to keep the project going.

Two of the nearby grade schools that feed into West — Hillcrest and Sunset Hill — have since started their own gardens. Between them, they now till about 14,000 square feet of garden space that generated about $4,000 in income last year.

He said many of the

The Lawrence City Commission agreed Tuesday evening to wait another week before casting a preliminary vote to approve $40 million worth of industrial revenue bonds to finance a portion of the Rock Chalk Park project.

Although the commission earlier had passed two resolutions of intent indicating that it planned to approve the bonds, Commissioner Mike Amyx asked for the delay to give the public more time to review the specific documents, which had just been posted on the city’s website earlier in the day. “I think it’s very appropri- Amyx ate to give the public the opportunity to see the same documents we’ve had,� Amyx said.

Gary Anderson, the city’s bond counsel from the firm Gilmore & Bell, said the delay would not interfere with the schedule of the project. But he also said the bond issue does not impose any financial obligation on the city or create any financial risk to city taxpayers.

Anderson described the issue as a “buy your own bonds deal,� meaning that developer Thomas Fritzel’s company Bliss Sports would be both the tenant and the bond purchaser. The only purpose of channeling the

DEATHS DARREL E. EASUM

Journal-World obituary policy: Obituaries run as submitted by funeral homes or the families of the deceased.

A memorial visitation will be Friday from 6-7:30 pm at Rumsey-Yost for Darrel Easum, 80, who died Tue., Oct. 1, 2013, at Brandon Woods. rumsey-yost.com

BOBBY JO THOMPSON MUIRHEAD Bobby Jo Thompson Muirhead passed from this life on September 29, 2013 at the age of 89. She was born on December 8, 1923, in Mangum, Oklahoma, the first of four lovely daughters born to Grayce Jewel Richardson Thompson and William John Thompson. In 1933 her parents moved to Stillwater, Oklahoma where she completed grade school. Two years later the family moved to Dallas, Texas where Bobby graduated from Sunset High School in 1940.

She attended Arlington College for one year after which she worked for Southland Life Insurance Company and then for the Army Corps of Engineers in Dallas. Bobby Thompson met her future husband, Lt. Vincent Muirhead, on a blind date on July 10, 1943. On August 31, before Lt. Muirhead left for Pensacola, Florida to complete flight training, they became engaged.

They were married in Pensacola on November 5, 1943 and made that their first of many homes together. In January 1944 the young couple moved to Vero Beach, Florida.

Upon completion of Operational Training, her husband was assigned to Carrier Air Group Sixteen. Bobby returned to Dallas where their first daughter, Rosalind Diane, was born in November 1944.

From her family home in Dallas, Bobby traveled from one coast to another in order to spend whatever time she could with her husband.

Christmas of 1944 found them in Oceana, Virginia where they spent two weeks together before his deployment. One month later Bobby met Vincent in Providence, Rhode Island, before he sailed for the Pacific.

Eight hours were all they had together in Los Angeles before he departed for Japanese waters.

Following the war, Air Group Sixteen arrived at NAS Norfolk, Virginia, in October, 1945. Bobby was on the flight line to meet him as he taxied in. They had one short month together as her husband was transferred to another carrier in the Pacific.

Fortunately, the carrier was sent to Boston, Massachusetts for decommissioning, and in April, 1946 was she able to again start a home for her family in Foxboro, Massachusetts.

She barely had time to hang curtains in their tiny home before they moved to Annapolis, Maryland, for her husband to attend U. S. Naval Postgraduate School.

Bobby spent the summer of 1948 in Dallas to bear her second daughter, Jean Sheryl in August. Taking her small daughters, she traveled to San Gabriel, California where Vincent completed his graduate work at California Institute of Technology.

In the following years she made comfortable and memorable homes in Corpus Christi, Texas; Jacksonville, Florida; Norfolk, Virginia; Bermuda; Dallas(where their third daughter Juleigh Gayle was born in November 1954); Chula Vista, California; Sangley Point, Philippine Islands;

Cubi Point, P.I.; Memphis, Tennessee, and for the last 52 years in Lawrence, Kansas.

As a member of the Church of Christ, Bobby was an active teacher for more than 50 years.

While living in Bermuda, she and her husband began a congregation of the Church of Christ on the Naval Base and were instrumental in obtaining from the Bermuda Parliament permission for the group to meet on the island. Currently there are two congregations there.

Since moving to Lawrence she has contributed her time and heart to the work of the Southside church.

During her Navy years Bobby was a Gray Lady at various naval hospitals, and she continued this service at KU’s Watkins Hospital. She was a member of the Kansas University Wives Club and the Engineering Wives Club.

She and her husband were avid travelers throughout the United States and to some 30 foreign countries, her favorites being Hawaii and Bermuda, where the Muirheads celebrated their 50th anniversary in 1993.

Bobby has always been dedicated to the happiness of her husband, daughters and family.

She was a fine seamstress and knitter, an accomplished hostess, a baker of amazing pies, a writer of charming letters, an editor of numerous academic papers, and a gentle nurse to her children.

She was a model of womanhood not only for her daughters, but for other young girls and women she has come in contact with over the years. A friend once recounted how she came upon her little girl pretending to be “Mrs. Muirhead”.

Delaware Tribe yet to decide land use

Rock Chalkinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; it up on campus

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

An Oklahoma-based Indian tribe doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have immediate plans for a casino on the prime North Lawrence property it purchased in July, but there are questions about whether plans may change.

Paula Pechonick, chief of the Delaware Tribe of Indians, has said the tribe is going through a federal process to have 87 acres federally recognized as Indian land, but the tribe is not currently seeking the federal approval needed for a casino. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are in the process of putting together the application for Land-in-Trust Non-Gaming,â&#x20AC;?

Pechonick said in Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edition of the tribeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newsletter, the Delaware Indian News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The trust status will allow the tribe to exercise sovereignty at the property, which will result in jobs and services in the surrounding community.â&#x20AC;?

Multiple sources familiar with the federal process, however, said that the tribe still could choose to switch the trust process to a gaming track in the future. A spokeswoman for Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback confirmed that the tribe did raise the casino issue with the governor during an Aug. 23 visit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While the tribe discussed the possibility of a casino with the governor, the governor does not support expanded gaming in Kansas and urged the Delaware Tribe to have a town hall meeting with the community of Lawrence to address con-

The Kansas University Endowment announced Tuesday that it provided $119.4 million to Kansas University for fiscal year 2013, which ended June 30. That is up slightly over last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $119.3 million.

Most of the money came from funds earmarked by donors for specific university functions, with only about $5 million coming from unrestricted funds. Money went to support student scholarships and KANSAS fellowships, UNIVERSITY faculty salaries and professorships, academic programs, research, performances and library and museum acquisitions, among other activities.

The total funding figure also includes $9.6 million for KU Hospital. That money went toward staff training, facilities, technology and other expenses.

How much support comes from the Endowment every year is determined largely by when school deans and other officials make funding requests from endowment accounts as well as when bill payments come up.

Those requests can fluctuate throughout the year, as can new donations that make

Tuesday marked a kind of independence day for the Kansas University Hospital.

Fifteen years ago, the KU Hospital Authority was formed, setting the hospital up as a nonprofit entity and ending its financial dependence on the state of Kansas, as well as its life as a university-controlled organization. The hospital itself Please see TRIBE, page 5A is a separate entity from

the university-controlled Kansas University Medical Center, which houses the School of Medicine and other health carerelated programs, and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t provide clinical care.

Page saw the transformation firsthand, having started with the hospital in 1996 before becoming chief operations officer in 2000 and then chief executive officer in 2007.

Wyandotte County Jail sued over mail policy KANSAS CITY, KAN. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two inmates at the Wyandotte County jail have filed a federal lawsuit accusing the sheriff of violating their rights by limiting their mail to post cards only.

The lawsuit, which was filed Monday in federal court in Kansas City, Kan., is seeking class-action status and an injunction against the policy.

The sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s department did not immediately return a call seeking comment Tuesday.

In the lawsuit, inmates Tyrell Jackson and Randall Chapman say the Wyandotte County Adult Detention Center restricts inmates to sending and receiving correspondence on postcards no larger than 5 inches by 7 inches, with the exception of â&#x20AC;&#x153;official mail,â&#x20AC;? which includes mail to and from lawyers.

The lawsuit contends the post-card only policy violates the civil rights of inmates and their family and friends.

is important to inmates and their friends and families because it allows them to stay connected and to express â&#x20AC;&#x201D; at length and in detail â&#x20AC;&#x201D; their private concerns about family relationships, health problems, and financial issues, among other things,â&#x20AC;? Doug Bonney, legal director of the ACLU Foundation of Kansas, said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If this policy had been in place in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1963, Martin Lu-

sent his now famous letter from the Birmingham Jail.

This postcard-only policy punishes inmates as well as their friends and family for no good purpose,â&#x20AC;? Bonney said.

The ACLU has contacted three other county jails in Kansas recently about their post-card only policy, Bonney said. Allen and Atchison counties agreed to change the policy to allow letters.

Leavenworth County is considering the change, he said.

Simons, chairman of The World Company and editor of the Lawrence Journal-World, was described as a lifelong news-

paper man who never rests on his laurels and wants everyone around him to improve.

He expanded the newspaper business his grandfather started in 1891 into such ventures as cable television and the Internet, keeping his company successful amid a changing industry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to drive with our brights,â&#x20AC;? he said, sharing one of his favorite business mottoes.

Two Lawrence men are being held in Douglas County Jail facing multiple charges including aggravated indecent liberties with a 15-year-old. One man faces an additional charge of patronizing a prostitute.

A man, 34, and another, 27, were booked into the jail on Monday on suspicion of committing multiple offenses between December 2012 and Jan. 14 of this year.

The Journal-World generally does not name suspects in sex crimes unless they are convicted.

The 34-year-old was arrested on one count of aggravated indecent liberties with a child, a felony.

He also faces one count of patronizing a prostitute, a misdemeanor. If found guilty, he faces up to more than 20 years in prison. The prostitution offense carries a maximum of 30 days in jail and a fine.

The 27-year-old faces one count of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and one count of indecent liberties with a child, both felonies. He is alleged to have committed both offenses with the same 15-year-old girl as the 34-year-old. If found guilty, he faces up to more than 31 years in prison.

On Tuesday, both men appeared in Douglas County Court via video from Douglas County Jail, where each remained in custody on $25,000 bond. They are forbidden to have contact with witnesses in what is an ongoing investigation.

3 years of probation given in shooting An Ottawa man will serve three years of probation following 60 days in the Franklin County Adult Detention Center after being found guilty in the accidental shooting of a 4-year-old boy in January.

Last month, Brian K. Bruno, 40, was sentenced to more than four years

with the Kansas Department of Corrections after being found guilty of aggravated battery and child endangerment by District Judge Thomas H. Sachse.

On Monday, Sachse ruled that Brunoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sentence, 52 months for aggravated battery and 12 months for child endangerment, to be run at the same time, would be served on probation.

As part of the sentence, Bruno cannot have contact with the victim nor can he possess a firearm. Bruno must also register as an offender under the Kansas Offender Registration Act. Bruno was arrested and charged on Jan. 4 after a boy was accidentally shot in the leg with a handgun at his home in the 1100 block of North Oak Street in Ottawa. The boy survived the shooting. Bruno was not the boyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father, but did live in the same home. In August, Bruno pleaded no contest to the charges as part of an agreement with prosecutors.

K.C. man jailed on federal drug warrant A 34-year-old Kansas City, Kan., man is being held at the Douglas County Jail without bond on a federal warrant for the distribution of narcotics.

Federico Castro Mongeau Samuel was booked into the jail a little after 7 p.m. Monday after a Lawrence police officer arrested him in the 1300 block of Kasold Drive.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman, said an officer on patrol observed Samuel, known to have an active federal warrant related to drug distribution, and placed him in custody following a car stop.

2013, which means there were 312 fewer deaths than expected.

The hospital has also expanded its operations significantly since 1998.

Its inpatient admissions are up 135 percent over the last 15 years and outpatient visits are up 306 percent.

Since 1998 the hospital has reinvested $1 billion in revenue back into its operations. With some of that money going to more training and higher salaries, staff turnover rates decreased, from more than 33 percent to just over 11 percent.

Page attributes many of these improvements to the change in the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s governing and financial structure. Before the birth of the hospital authority, spending and organizational decisions had to run through the state, which added time and bureaucratic hassles to hospital operations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have our own checkbook,â&#x20AC;? Page said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t spending our own money.â&#x20AC;?

The hospital still maintains an organizational relationship with both Kansas University and the state. KU officials, including Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little, sit on the authorityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board. The Kansas governor also plays a role in the makeup of the board through a selection committee.

Not only has the hospital benefited from the reorganization, so has the university. The hospital provides KU with many millions of dollars every year to, among other things, supplement faculty salaries at the KU Medical Center and Cancer Research Center, pay the cost of residents and purchase services from the university health centers.

KAKE-TV reports the standoff at a home in Winfield began around 8:30 a.m. Tuesday. The man was upset with his family and fired several shots into the air, but had already gone back inside the home by the time police arrived.

Seuferling said that the Endowmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s objective was to provide a â&#x20AC;&#x153;steady, dependable source of funding for the universityâ&#x20AC;? that continues to grow and support university activities year after year.

The nearly $120 million figure announced Tuesday represents income from the KU Endowmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long-term investment program, meant to support KU indefinitely, as well as expendable gifts that can be tapped any time. The long-term fund earned a 10.9 percent return for fiscal year 2013, putting its market value at $1.29 billion.

Kansas University will hold a final round of public forums on Thursday to discuss the new master plan for the development of its Lawrence and Edwards campuses. Presentations from KU will look at facilities and projects, land use, research, student life, sustainability, resource management and transportation and access.

The university has created only four such comprehensive plans since 1907. The most recent was completed in 1997. To help develop the new master plan, KU has hired Virginia-based architecture and planning company Hanbury Evans Wright Vlattas + Company.

KU will host two forums to discuss the plan Thursday, one at 11 a.m. and another at 4 p.m., on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union.

prepared to address the issue of a casino. They said they were looking at plans for housing, child care and a medical clinic to serve a portion of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s American Indian population.

The tribeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newsletter includes several articles about the Kansas purchase, with several of them stressing that the tribe is interested in establishing the tribeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s administrative headquarters on Kansas land. The tribe currently is located on land controlled by the Cherokee Nation, which can make it difficult for it to receive direct grants and other financial payments from the federal government.

Even smaller scale development on the Douglas County site â&#x20AC;&#x201D; such as a headquarters building, medical clinic or tribal housing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is likely to create concern with some area residents.

Kansans urged to be patient as exchange enrollment begins WICHITA (AP)— The online insurance marketplace for Kansas could not fully handle the crush of consumers who hit the federally run exchange when enrollment opened Tuesday, but the technological glitches were not unexpected as not only the website but the program itself tried to keep up with demand.

On the first day of the six-month open enrollment period, advocates in Kansas were struggling to implement their own portion of the nation’s biggest health care coverage expansion in 50 years.

The latest U.S. Census bureau estimates that about 358,000 Kansans have no health insurance.

The Kansas Association for the Medically Underserved, the lead agency for the rollout in Kansas, said it had 60 health care navigators or certified application counselors — the program’s front-line guides for the new system — across the state ready to work on the first day of enrollment. An additional 200 to 225 more were still undergoing training to work, said KAMU spokeswoman Katrina McGivern.

Six of those were bilingual in Spanish, and one person knew sign language.

In Lawrence, Rosilyn Wells, a navigator at Heartland Community Health Center, said Tuesday afternoon that she hadn’t been able to access the marketplace website, HealthCare.gov, the entire day.

At GraceMed Health Clinic in Wichita, a steady stream of people showed up for one-on-one sessions with Juven Nava, one of the clinic’s two navigators. The clinic has a grant that will allow it to hire two more navigators. By mid-day Tuesday,

45"5& t /"5*0/

.

Nava had seen eight people at the clinic and taken about a dozen phone calls from people seeking to enroll in the state’s health insurance exchange.

But Nava has been unable to sign up a single person for insurance coverage. Sometimes he can’t even log into the website to sign them up, sometimes the online exchange kicks him off.

“We tell them that with everything there is going to be some glitches,” he said. “There is always going to be some bumps, but it is going to get better.”

GraceMed’s chief executive, Dave Sandford, said that when he tried to get access to the site he got a message to wait because of the high volume, but after waiting 10 minutes he was kicked off. He does not think anything could have been done to handle the significant volume of calls the site was going to get on day one.

“There are probably a lot of folks like me, who already have health insurance, that are just trying to log on to see how it works,” Sandford said. “I am probably compounding the problem.”

At the Shawnee County Health Agency in Topeka, enrollment coordinator Paige Ashley said she too couldn’t obtain the online login she needed to purchase coverage on the site.

She was advising people who were calling her to set up appointments to wait at least next week.

Consumers won’t start incurring tax penalties for not having coverage until after March 31 of next year and have until Dec. 15 if they want their coverage to start in January.

Health insurance markets open to surge of new customers, frustration

By Carla K. Johnson Associated Press

CHICAGO — Americans got their first chance Tuesday to shop for health insurance using the online marketplaces that are at the heart of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, but government websites designed to sell the policies struggled to handle the traffic, with many frustrated users reporting trouble setting up accounts.

State and federal agencies were working to fix the sites, which represent the biggest expansion in coverage in nearly 50 years. There should be time to make improvements. The open-enrollment period lasts for six months.

Administration officials said they were pleased with the strong consumer interest. At least 2.8 million people had visited the healthcare.gov website as of Tuesday afternoon, said Medicare administrator Marilyn Tavenner, whose office is overseeing the rollout of the Affordable Care Act. The website had seven times the number of simultaneous users ever recorded on the medicare.gov site.

But at most only a handful of people had been able

BRYANT RAGLER, of Peoria, Ill., navigates the online insurance marketplace during sessions Tuesday at the Peoria Public Library. At least 2.8 million people had visited the healthcare. gov website as of Tuesday afternoon. to successfully enroll online through the federal website in that time period, according to two industry officials with knowledge of the situation. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak about the issue publicly. The number of those enrolled is expected grow as technicians tackle and resolve glitches.

In Obama’s home state, dozens of people who came to a Champaign, Ill., public health office to sign up for coverage found computer screens around the room flashing an error message: “System is unavailable.”

Kimberly Shockley — logging in from Houston, Texas — and Mike Weaver, who lives in rural southern Illinois, ran into the same glitch as many others: They could not get past the security questions while trying to set up their personal accounts through healthcare.gov.

“I’m frustrated, very frustrated,” said Shockley, a self-employed CPA. She spent more than an hour trying to get the security questions to work without success. When she clicked on a drop-down menu of suggested security questions, none appeared. She then tried to create her

own questions, but that didn’t work either.

Weaver, a self-employed photographer, said he also ran into problems with the drop-down menus. And when they started working, he still wasn’t able to set up his account.

“The first day of something that you know is going to have a lot of bugs, it’s not that frustrating,” he said. “If it was the last day to sign up ... then I’d be terribly frustrated.”

Shockley has health insurance, but is looking for a better plan. Weaver is uninsured.

The marketplaces represent a turning point in the nation’s approach to health care. The Obama administration hopes to sign up 7 million people during the first year and aims to eventually sign up at least half of the nearly 50 million uninsured Americans through an expansion of Medicaid or government-subsidized plans.

Many states predicted that an initial surge of interest would test the online system, but they expect most people to sign up closer to Dec. 15, which is the deadline for coverage to start Jan. 1. Customers have until the end of March to sign up in order to avoid tax penalties.

Lawrence forums offer chance to learn about Obamacare Lawrence-area residents will have a chance to learn more about the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, at a series of meetings scheduled to take place in the community in the next several weeks.

The first meeting is today.

The sessions are open to the public and will feature local experts on the 2010 health care law, which aims to expand health coverage to

Democrats, GOP trade blame as shutdown continues

By David Espo and Donna Cassata

Federal shutdown hits Kansas sites

Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; First slowed, then stalled by political gridlock, the vast machinery of government clanged into partial shutdown mode on Tuesday and President Barack Obama warned the longer it goes â&#x20AC;&#x153;the more families will be hurt.â&#x20AC;?

Republicans said it was his fault, not theirs, and embarked on a strategy â&#x20AC;&#x201D; opposed by Democrats â&#x20AC;&#x201D; of voting on bills to reopen individual agencies or programs.

Ominously, there were suggestions from leaders in both parties that the shutdown, heading for its second day, could last for weeks and grow to encompass a possible default by the Treasury if Congress fails to raise the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debt ceiling. The two issues are â&#x20AC;&#x153;now all together,â&#x20AC;? said Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill. Speaking at the White House, the president accused Republicans of causing the first partial closure in 17 years as part of a nonstop â&#x20AC;&#x153;ideological crusadeâ&#x20AC;? to wipe out his signature health care law.

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, gave as good as he got. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The president isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t telling the whole story,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; he said in an opinion article posted on the USA Today website. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fact is that Washington Democrats have slammed

Both houses of Congress met in a Capitol closed to regular public tours, part of the impact of a partial shutdown that sent ripples of disruption outward â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from museums and memorials in Washington to Yellowstone and other national parks and to tax auditors and federal offices serving Americans coast to coast.

Officials said roughly 800,000 federal employees would be affected by the shutdown after a halfday on the job Tuesday to fill out time cards, put new messages on their voice mail and similar chores.

Among those workers were some at the Nation-

Dr. Francis Collins, agency director, estimated that each week the shutdown lasts will force the facility to turn away about 200 patients, 30 of them children, who want to enroll in studies of experimental treatments. Patients already at the hospital are permitted to stay.

Late Tuesday, House Republicans sought swift passage of legislation aimed at reopening small slices of the federal establishment. The bills covered the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Park Service and a portion of the Washington, D.C., government funded with "¨ Q¨A�

TOPEKA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two photocopied pieces of paper taped Tuesday to the front door of the Brown v. Board of Education National Historic Site let visitors know the building in Topeka is closed because of the federal government shutdown.

Across Kansas, thousands of government employees were reporting to work to prepare their offices for the shutdown.

David Smith, superintendent of the Brown site, said he was signing notices for the 17 staff members in Topeka, spelling out what happens next. One maintenance person will be kept on to monitor the site but will not be paid. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really challenging situation,â&#x20AC;? Smith said before leaving at noon as local tax revenue.

Democrats generally opposed all three, saying Republicans shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be permitted to choose which agencies remain open and which stay shut. As a result, all fell well short of the twothirds majority needed for passage.

The White House also issued veto threats against the bills, drawing a jab from Michael Steel, a spokesman for Boehner.

ordered.

The lack of a resolution to the federal budget means thousands of employees at the Armyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth will be furloughed until a new spending bill is approved.

The shutdown also forced the shuttering of the Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum in Abilene, part of the National Archives system.

Gov. Sam Brownback said Tuesday that Kansas had built up cash reserves to keep operations that depend on federal support running.

The largest impact on state operations would be to the Kansas adjutant generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s department where 700 full-time military staff will be idled.

Obama â&#x20AC;&#x153;canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t continue to complain about the impact of the government shutdown on veterans, visitors at National Parks, and D.C. while vetoing bills to help them,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Several House Democrats used the occasion to seek a vote on a standalone spending bill, a measure that Rep. Elizabeth Esty of Connecticut said would â&#x20AC;&#x153;end the tea party shutdown.â&#x20AC;? The requests were ruled out of order.

Republican aides said all three bills that were sidetracked could be brought up again today under rules requiring a mere majority to pass.

They said the House might also vote on a measure to reopen the hospital at the NIH, after several Democrats cited the impact on patients.

Ironically, a major expansion of the health care law â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the very event Republicans had hoped to prevent â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was unaffected as consumers flocked for the first time Tuesday to websites to shop for coverage sold by private companies.

The talk of joining the current fight â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the Republicans are trying to sidetrack the health care law by holding up funding for the fiscal year that began at midnight Monday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to a dispute involving the national debt limit suggested the shutdown could go on for some time.

The administration says the ceiling must be raised by midmonth, and Republicans have long vowed to seek cuts in spending at the same time, a condition Obama has rejected.

Boehner has declined to say whether he would permit a vote on a standalone spending bill to reopen the government, stripped of health care provisions, though Democrats and Obama continued to call on him to do so.

Naming opportunity It’s exciting to see all the work taking place at the former Farmland Industries property, but it’s past time to give the new business park an official name so that marketing efforts can begin in earnest.

I

t’s good news that city officials appear close to announcing the official name for a new 400-plus-acre business park on the east edge of Lawrence.

The site has been simply known as the “former Farmland Industries” property for too long. It needs a name that better reflects the development and makes it possible to start seriously marketing sites to prospective businesses.

It’s a little shocking for long-time residents to drive by the property located just west of the East Hills Business Park on Kansas Highway 10. The massive infrastructure that supported the Farmland fertilizer plant for many years is gone and major infrastructure work is underway. The city has been working for several years to obtain and reclaim this property, and it’s exciting to see it getting close to providing much-needed industrial space for Lawrence.

City officials say they want to start offering spaces to new tenants later this year or early next year, which means it’s probably past time to start a major marketing campaign to attract new businesses to the area. It’s pretty tough to craft such a campaign without having an official name for the development, a logo and other materials that will be used to promote the new park.

It’s not clear why this decision has taken so long, but city officials certainly have built up the suspense. Let’s hope the resulting name will prove to be worth the wait.

Too much faith in government It’s Obamacare activation and government “shutdown” week in Washington, where the consequences of misplaced faith in government are everywhere. Still, “true believers” remain faithful that Obamacare will be the exception to government’s past failures in achieving big goals.

There are examples galore of government’s inability to do things well and at reasonable cost, but that doesn’t deter those who continue to believe government can solve every problem.

The U.S. Postal Service wants to raise the cost of a firstclass stamp from 46 cents to 49 cents in order to cover a “precarious financial condition.”

That will only encourage more people to stop sending mail, all but guaranteeing another rate increase down the road.

The White House announced a $300 million aid package for Detroit, a city in which Democratic rule, high taxes, out-of-control spending and years of corruption precipitated its financial collapse. Half of the money will go toward eliminating blight.

The real blight is the Democratic Party that ruled and then ruined Detroit.

The Federal Housing Authority announced Friday it is taking $1.7 billion in borrowed money from the U.S. Treasury to cover projected losses in reverse mortgage programs.

It can do so without congressional authorization. Actors peddle reverse mortgages on TV all the time and we’re told they are “guaranteed” by the government. What could possibly go wrong?

The Heritage Foundation has compiled a long list of government programs that have failed to live up to their advertised

In addition to the Great Society monstrosities that have undermined the American family by subsidizing out-of-wedlock births and welfare dependency, some others include:

Head Start. According to the Head Start Impact Study, in virtually every category, the program for preschool children has failed to achieve its stated goals. The study found “that the benefits of participating in Head Start almost completely disappear by first grade.”

Food Stamps. This is one of 80 welfare programs going to one-third of Americans that will cost an estimated $12.7 trillion over the next decade without substantial reforms.

Social Security. This is the “untouchable” entitlement, which needs reform as much, or more, than any other federal program. Women, especially, get a raw deal with Social Security. Again, as The Heritage Foundation has noted, “Among retired workers, women received $300

less than men in Social Security benefits in 2010, collecting only $1,023 in monthly benefits on average. Women are more likely than men to lack all of the necessary 35 years of payroll tax contributions to qualify for full benefits, as many take time off from the workforce to care for children and elderly parents. And those who don’t have a full work history are even worse off. Many seniors receive benefits below the federal poverty level.”

Add to this the annual ritual of federal agencies spending millions of “leftover” dollars before the end of the fiscal year Sept. 30 — $562,000 on “artwork” by the Department of Veterans Affairs, $178,000 by the Coast Guard on “cubicle furniture rehab,” according to The Washington Post — and you understand why so many are cynical about government’s track record of achievement and cost containment.

Space does not allow a full accounting of all federal agencies and programs that should be eliminated or reformed. There is no congressional requirement that these agencies and programs prove themselves worthy of our money and, once spawned, government programs are virtually impossible to kill.

Given so much evidence of government’s inability to make our lives better, what makes anyone think it will suddenly become competent running Obamacare? Only individuals, not government, can improve their lives by making the right choices. Too often, government adds to our burdens with additional debt. It’s the one job government does well.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Oct. 2, 1913: “Yes, the ‘tango’ and other fancy and modern dances were disYEARS cussed by University students with AGO a view to organizing a class. This IN 1913 was the principal development of the last twenty-four hours in the Wingart-Howe-Tango suspension case which stirred classic Mount Oread yesterday. The information is contained in an interview obtained yesterday by a Topeka, Kansas, newspaper man with Miss Margaret Garvey of Topeka, one of the two Topeka society girls who proposed to lead Kansas University boys and girls through the intricacies of the latest creations of the eastern ball rooms....

‘We danced the Tango at two fraternity and two sorority houses, before chaperones in each case, and the chaperones and all were delighted with the dance. It is not a rag dance, but is a very pretty and proper dance, there is nothing risque about it.”

— Compiled by Sarah St. John

Government should govern It is Tuesday morning as I am writing this column, and the federal government has been shut down for approximately eight hours. It is hard for me to fathom the irresponsibility of Congress in allowing this to happen. Personally, I am sick to death of hearing each political party blame the other for what has happened.

As for those in Congress who are glorying in the shutdown, all I can think is that they don’t belong in government.

I find it even more ironic that while hundreds of thousands of federal workers will go without pay because of the shutdown — and may never receive this lost pay in the future — members of Congress will continue to be paid. A few congressmen and women have said that they would send back their pay during the shutdown, but, so far as I am concerned, every single member of Congress ought to lose all of their pay and perquisites during the period of the shutdown. How dare they remain exempt from the pain that they are causing others for very little good?

I heard on the radio yesterday that roughly 27,000 federal workers in the Kansas City area will be sent on furlough during the shutdown.

Many of these people, both

“

At this point, I think that the members of Congress need to think about why they are in Washington in the first place and then figure out a way to talk to each other and find some common ground so that they can do what they were elected to do.”

in Kansas City and throughout the nation, are hardworking folks who live paycheck to paycheck. The vast majority of federal workers do not earn the large salaries that are earned by our leaders in Washington. Further, every dollar that federal workers lose in pay means that others who sell goods and services to those workers will also lose income. In many instances, the overall losses to the econ-

omy will be far greater than the actual amount of federal salary income that is lost.

Perhaps even worse is the fact that our economy is only now slowly recovering from the “Great Recession” that began in 2008. Scores of economists have, over the past few weeks, warned that a federal government shutdown could seriously endanger a continued recovery. The longer the shutdown lasts, the greater the danger that our country will again fall into recession.

I recognize that I am getting a bit older and, undoubtedly, a bit old-fashioned in my thinking. But I have always understood that the purpose in being elected to government is to govern. To my mind, one cannot govern when one shuts down the government. At this point, I think that the members of Congress need to think about why they are in Washington in the first place and then figure out a way to talk to each other and find some common ground so that they can do what they were elected to do.

Otherwise, they ought to resign and let the people elect some folks who will.

PUBLIC FORUM

League lauded To the editor: Many thanks to the League of Women Voters members who invested personal effort in organizing and sitting outside of Checkers and the local public library last week, registering voters and dispensing voting-related information in observance of National Voter Registration Day. Every voter counts. I know many people are also grateful for the League’s web site (www. lawrenceleague.com), which offers free, bipartisan candidate and issue information before elections. Registering and educating voters is the most basic foundation needed to assure the successful continuation of our democracy. Even the most contentious political party officials and members can agree on that.

Hats off to the League volunteers. Nicely done!

Annie Reed, Lawrence

Happy rider To the editor: This is in reponse to the letter about the T bus.

I have ridden the T at least once a week for several years. The drivers are very good. They have a 30-minute window. With construction and accidents, they may be delayed.

I’m very happy to have the option of riding.

Mary Ann Canfield, Lawrence

Age issue?

To the editor: I have a few concerns that perhaps need to be clarified by those in charge at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

There have been two recent articles published by the Journal-World regarding the active recruitment of two medical specialties to the area, those being endocrinology and rheumatology. The physician recruiter, Sherri Vaughn, made the statement that there are no physicians in the area with these specialties. That was proven to not be a true statement.

In the second article, she qualified her first statement by adding “under the age of 60.” I am not sure if it was pointed out to her that she made a mistake or that she does not consider physicians at or near the magical age of 60 to be part of the medical community any longer. Do we no longer value education, experience, knowledge and expertise gained through years of practice? Especially in a field where one can not even begin to start to practice before more than a decade of education and training requirements are met?

I think what is more disturbing is that the person making these statements is the one responsible for recruiting physicians to this area. Would I be wrong to believe, then, that she would not consider recruiting a new physician to this area that is of or near that age since she clearly dismisses or does not acknowledge those already here of that age?

Christine Rothschild, Baldwin City

CITY SHOWDOWN TENNIS Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Run first best bet for KU Part of the self-study college football coaching staffs do during bye weeks involves statistical research.

Second-year Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis shared one trend Tuesday that eats at him.

On third down with less than six yards to go for a first down, Kansas is doing “fine,” Weis said and added the Jayhawks are “crummy” on third-and-6 or more.

Juicing the offense, he continued, will require either becoming more efficient on third-and-long or getting into fewer such down-anddistance situations.

I did a little statistical research to see if there might be a way to help the second part of the equation, getting into fewer third-and-long binds.

First-down play calling always makes for interesting conversation, so I compared how Kansas does when it runs the ball on first down to how it fares when running a pass play. First-andgoal plays were excluded from the statistical study.

Loaded with talented running backs and shy of productive receivers, Kansas has a better running game than passing game, so defenses tend to shade their defensive game plans to stop the run.

Weis said Tuesday the essence of his play calling is to “play to our strengths and hide our weaknesses.”

For the most part, Weis has done so with his firstdown play calling. Kansas has run the ball 57 percent of the time on first down.

Generally speaking, running on first down has been a good idea in the area of avoiding third-and-long mountains to climb. Passing on first down has resulted in far more third-and-6-or-more pickles.

Third-and-5 certainly isn’t a good outcome, but for the sake of this argument, we’ll put anything third-and-5 or better in the positive column, third-and-6 or worse in the negative. If there is a first down or touchdown on first or second down, that goes in the positive column, a turnover in the negative.

Running the ball on first down has led to a positive outcome 72 percent of the time, third-and-6 or worse 28 percent of the time. Passing the ball on first down has resulted in a positive outcome just 57 percent of the time, a negative result 43 percent of the time.

The greatest disparity came in the Rice game, in which Kansas called running plays 11 times on first-and-10 and called 12 passing plays.

When running on first down, 73 percent went in the positive column outlined above, 27 in the negative.

When passing on first down against the Owls, only 25 percent went positive, 75 percent negative.

Against a Louisiana Tech defense, the strength of which was up front, passing on first down actually worked better, with a 76-percent positive rating passing, compared to a 64-percent positive rating running on first down.

No matter the vantage point, Kansas grades out as a run-first offense. But can the line block well enough to support that approach? It can if the blockers improve technique and chemistry each week — always a possibility, never a given.

FREE STATE JUNIOR MEGAN MCREYNOLDS HAS A LAUGH with doubles partner Alexis Czapinski, senior, between sets against Lawrence High on Tuesday at FSHS. The duo defeated LHS partners Whitney Simons and Kendall Pritchard, 8-5, helping the Firebirds to a 5-4 victory in the City Showdown dual.

Firebirds rally from early losses to win dual with Lions

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Free State High tennis partners Taylor Hawkins and Caitlin Dodd had just blown a three-game lead Tuesday afternoon, and lost their No. 2 doubles match to rival Lawrence High’s Brooke Braman and Zoe Schneider.

As Hawkins and Dodd walked off their home court, they were greeted by coach Oather Strawderman, who wanted to let them know they were capable of so much more.

“That’s just not the way we’re gonna play,” Strawderman told them. “That’s not Free State tennis. We don’t take a 5-2 lead and blow it like that. That’s not acceptable.”

Hawkins, a junior, and Dodd, a sophomore, both still had to play a singles match in the City Showdown, so their coach gave them two choices: respond to the loss or mope about it.

Dodd recovered to defeat Schneider, 8-2, in No. 3 singles and Hawkins didn’t drop a game in an 8-0 sweep of

Braman to win No. 4 singles.

The players’ quick recovery proved critical in Free State’s 5-4 victory over the Lions at the dual.

“They came out there fired up,” Strawderman said, “and they played amazing tennis.”

Hawkins said neither of them performed like they were capable of in the 8-6 doubles loss. Dodd said they both refocused after talking with their coach.

“You just have to not worry about it,” Dodd said. “Forget it and just move on, really fast.”

Firebirds senior Alexis Czapinski shut out Whitney Simons, 8-0, in No. 1 singles and FSHS sophomore Rachel Walters beat Caroline Baloga, 8-3, in No. 6 singles to seal the dual victory and give FSHS victories in four of its six final matches. Lawrence junior Kendall Pritchard won, 8-3, against Megan McReynolds in the No. 2 slot and the Lions’ No. 5, junior Yelena Birt, held off Alyssa Raye, 8-5.

Rival golfers keep it close at LHS Invitational

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR ABBY SCHMIDTBERGER CHIPS onto the green during the Lawrence High Golf Invitational, Tuesday at Alvamar Golf Course.

With two holes left to play Tuesday at Alvamar Golf Course, Lawrence High senior Abby Schmidtberger and Free State junior Emily Bermel walked toward the tee box and chatted back and forth about how they wanted to finish the Lawrence High Golf Invitational in style.

Their plan: pars for both of them, then see what happens when scores get posted outside of the clubhouse.

“When I bogeyed the first hole and she parred it,” Schmidtberger said after the tournament, “I knew that I needed to step up a little bit.”

The Lions senior didn’t know it at the time, but she and Bermel had taken the exact same number of strokes entering their group’s final hole, No. 2. Schmidtberger wanted a five, for par, to finish the day. She earned it as Bermel bogeyed the hole, and Schmidtberger’s 84 proved to be the top score among city players, beating Bermel by a single stroke.

The LHS senior tied for 11th place, finishing just outside of the top-10 medalists (Garden City’s Abby Shaddis and Olathe Northwest’s Audrey Judd led the way with 71s). Schmidtberger left Please see GOLF, page 3B

Weis, Jayhawks well-aware of Big 12 loss streak TTU V. KU Who: Texas Tech (4-0) vs. KU (2-1) When: 11 a.m.

Saturday Where: Memorial Stadium TV: Fox Sports 1 (cable chs.

150, 227)

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The numbers are staggering and Kansas University coach Charlie Weis is not hiding from them.

By the time Saturday’s 11 a.m. kickoff against No. 20 Texas Tech rolls around, 1,063 days will have passed since the KU football team last defeated a Big 12 Conference opponent. Weis opened Tuesday’s meeting with the

media with a roll call of the numbers associated with a dreadful drought that has spanned 21 games and four seasons. Going one step further, Weis revealed that the number balloons to 1,455 days if you only count current members of the Big 12.

KU topped Iowa State, 41-36, on Oct. 10, 2009, and did not win a conference game again until Nov. 6, 2010, against Colorado.

“Yes, I have those num-

bers down,” Weis said. “And, at (Tuesday’s practice) that will be one of our main conversation pieces.”

Finding extra motivational tactics is nothing new for Weis and his program, and KU’s second-year coach stressed that confronting the dubious streak was not some sort of punishment for his players.

“You don’t do it as a negative,” Weis said. “You just say, ‘This is where we are. We’re

gonna beat somebody. You want to get this out of the way?’ You don’t look at it like, ‘You have to win this week to get this over with.’ But you make them aware of what the issues are. As the program is building, you have these hurdles you have to get over and this would be a good time to get over that hurdle. It’s Homecoming. 11 o’clock. Everybody’s gonna be fired up.”

Shutdown puts service academy sports on hold WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Army, Navy and Air Force might be forced to skip their football games this weekend because of the partial government shutdown.

The Defense Department temporarily suspended sports competition at the service academies Tuesday as a result of the budget impasse in Congress.

A Pentagon spokesman, Army

Col. Steve Warren, said the decision was being reviewed by lawyers considering a series of legal questions, including whether money that comes from sources other than Congress could be used to pay for sports during the government shutdown.

Meantime, the suspension put a pair of college football games in jeopardy: Army at Boston College, and Air Force at Navy.

Bench role could help Hinrich stay healthy

During a six-day government shutdown in November 1995, Army, Navy and Air Force played football games â&#x20AC;&#x201D; all at home.

The U.S. Naval Academy said in a statement that a decision will be made by noon Thursday about whether the Midshipmen will play the Air Force. Navyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s football team did practice Tuesday.

Air Force associate athletic director Troy Garnhart said travel for his sports teams was being halted â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including for Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s football game at Annapolis, Md. A scheduled news conference with Air Force football coach Troy Calhoun and players was canceled Tuesday â&#x20AC;&#x153;due to the government shutdown,â&#x20AC;? according to a statement.

CHICAGO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kirk Hinrichâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injury-plagued 2012-13 season didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t end when the Bulls bowed out of the playoffs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I found out the day after we lost to Miami that I had pneumonia,â&#x20AC;? Hinrich said over the weekend.

One month and 10 lost pounds later, Hinrich began to work himself back into shape, a condition he hopes to keep after missing 22 regular-season games to four separate injuHinrich ries and the final eight playoff games to a ruptured left calf.

Hinrichâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s projected role â&#x20AC;&#x201D; backing up Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butler at guard â&#x20AC;&#x201D; could aid in his quest to have a healthier 2013-14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited,â&#x20AC;? said Hinrich, a former Kansas University standout. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come off the bench before and enjoyed it. I feel I can come in and bring energy. That will be a good role for me. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the injuries last year were just bad luck, so I try not to put too much stock into it. But early in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preseason, I had a lot of my small muscle groups hurting. So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just trying to do a lot more flexibility and functional stuff in the weight and training rooms before and after practice to prevent that.â&#x20AC;?

Indeed, one of Hinrichâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regular-season injuries was freakish â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a burst bursa sac in his right elbow that became infected.

And who can forget Hinrichâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final game, when he tied a franchise record by playing 59 minutes, 36 seconds in the tripleovertime victory over the Nets in Game 4?

Hinrich posted 18 points, 14 assists, four rebounds and three steals while relentlessly hounding Deron Williams despite suffering what became a seasonending injury in the first half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Looking back, I was just glad we were able to win,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The whole second half, I was hurting pretty bad.â&#x20AC;?

Hinrich theorizes his weakened condition that led to pneumonia contributed to him not being able to overcome the calf injury. Whatever the case, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no denying Hinrichâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impact when he remained healthy enough to play.

KANSAS CITY ROYALS MANAGER NED YOST greets fans before a September game at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.

30/243 /. 46

Royals reward Yost with two-year extension KANSAS CITY, MO. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The vast rebuilding job that Ned Yost inherited as the manager of the Kansas City Royals was strikingly similar to the one he took on when he was hired by the Milwaukee Brewers.

The difference this time is that Yost will have a chance to stick around.

The Royals and Yost agreed to a two-year contract extension Tuesday after wrapping up an 86-76 season, the best finish for the franchise in 24 years. Yostâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contract was set to expire after the season, though both sides had expressed a desire for the manager to remain on board. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our main goal is to win the World Series, but we took a major step this year,â&#x20AC;? Yost said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We finished 10 games over .500. That was huge for us. That was a big step.â&#x20AC;?

The next big step is to make the playoffs, something that Yost had the Brewers on the verge of when he was fired in 2008. He eventually landed in Kansas City and became the interim manager in 2010, and then lost more than 90 games each of his first two full seasons in charge.

His biggest task then was to help develop one of the youngest rosters in baseball, and the work began to pay off this year. The Royals rebounded from a disastrous May to go 43-27 after the All-Star break, and werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eliminated from wildcard contention until their penultimate series. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Milwaukee was a great experience for me, like May was a good experience for our team,â&#x20AC;?

Yost said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thankful for that opportunity because it made me stronger. It made me a better manager. The May we went through, it made us better, it made us stronger, because we endured it, and we were better for it the rest of the year.â&#x20AC;?

Yost, who is 741-831 in 10 seasons as a manager, held off on discussing a new contract until after the season. It came together quickly on Monday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you have something good you need to stick with it,â&#x20AC;? outfielder Alex Gordon said after the final game, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we have.

We have a good manager that jells well with the guys on this team and we all have a good relationship.â&#x20AC;?

Yostâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two-year deal creates a strange situation in the organization in that general manager Dayton Moore is only under contract through next season. Moore declined to discuss whether he will also seek an extension this offseason, saying only that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;secureâ&#x20AC;? with his situation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m at peace about where I am and what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done,â&#x20AC;? Moore said.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Selden: Late Night visit made impression

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Late Night in the Phog has closed the deal, so to speak, for many Kansas University basketball recruits throughout the years.

“I made my official visit to KU for Late Night. That was a good experience.

It was intense. It was a different level,” said KU freshman Wayne Selden, a 6-foot-5 freshman guard from Roxbury, Mass., who actually orally committed to KU last Oct. 13 — the day after being blown away by Late Night 2012.

“I’m excited. I can’t wait to be a part of it this year,” Selden added.

Selden — he chose KU over Ohio State, Florida, UCLA, Syracuse and Missouri — this Friday will

“

I made my official visit to KU for Late Night. That was a good experience. It was intense. It was a different level.”

— Kansas freshman Wayne Selden be helping host a batch of KU prospects who will be making official and unofficial recruiting visits.

As reported Monday, three of Rivals.com’s topranked high school seniors — No. 4 Cliff Alexander, 6-8 power forward from Chicago Curie High; No. 12 Kelly Oubre, 6-7 shooting guard from Findlay Prep in Henderson, Nev.; and No. 17 Malik Pope, 6-8 small forward from

Laguna Creek High in Elk Grove, Calif. — will be in the stands for the 6:30 p.m.

Late Night.

A batch of juniors likely to attend Late Night as identified by Rivals.com: No. 11-rated (in Class of 2015) Charles Matthews, 6-4, combo guard, Chicago St. Rita; No. 14 King McClure, 6-3 combo guard, Dallas Triple A Academy; No. 39 William Jackson, 6-4 point guard, Athens (Ga) Christian School and No. 68 Jarvis Johnson, 6-1 point guard, Minneapolis (Minn.) De La Salle. No. 9 Elijah Thomas, 6-9 forward, Lancaster (Texas) High, hopes he’ll be able to attend.

O Conference chatter: CBSsports.com’s college basketball analysts predicted champions in the

PITCHED BATTLE

country’s conferences on Monday. Gary Parrish, Jeff Borzello, Matt Norlander, Jerry Palm and Jon Rothstein picked KU to win the Big 12 for a 10th-straight season; Doug Gottlieb went with his alma mater, Oklahoma State.

O Rayford to be honored: Former KU point guard Calvin Rayford will be inducted into the Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame on Saturday at Chula Vista Resort in Wisconsin Dells.

“I’m very humbled, very excited about getting this honor,” Rayford, a former McDonald’s All-American out of Milwaukee’s Washington High, told the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.

“To me this is another chapter in my life. It lets the kids know that you

never know what will happen 20 years later if you handle your business off the court,” added Rayford, a teacher at LaFollette Elementary School in Milwaukee.

“I’m teaching seventh and eighth grade, all subjects and I’m loving it,” the 1996 KU graduate in criminal justice told the Journal-Sentinel. “I taught the sixth-graders here last year, so most of the kids I’m familiar with. I love coming in the inner city and MPS (Milwaukee Public Schools). A lot of people say MPS is not good, they don’t have a good education, but I’m a product of MPS. To see me coming from the projects and graduating from MPS and college, and to still be getting recognized 20 years later, it’s a good feeling.”

O Slam dunk: Former KU guard Ben McLemore and Sacramento Kings teammate Patrick Patterson played a joke on teammate Travis Outlaw Monday at Kings’ Media Day. As Patterson stood behind Outlaw wearing a hoop apparatus, McLemore sprinted onto the scene and dunked over Outlaw, “posterizing” Outlaw on the mini-hoop.

Alvamar impressed by Bermel, whom she had never played alongside.

“I knew that she was a good golfer, and I didn’t think I would beat her today,” the Lions’ top performer said. “But I played my best and she played pretty well, also.

It just came down to little strokes that made the difference between us, but I think we’re both good golfers.”

Unlike her friend from LHS, Bermel knew just how close the two were entering their 18th hole, which began for her with a drive into the trees.

“I had a lot of trouble to get out of,” the FSHS junior said.

Once she chipped out of the rough, she still had a long way to go to get on the green and had to settle for a six. Bermel didn’t think her 85 (tied for 15th) was an awful score — she labeled it as fair — but she didn’t know what to think of it after the fact.

“I didn’t play bad, but I didn’t play as well as I was expecting,” Free State’s top golfer said.

That number in particular bothered her, because 85 was a score she hovered around as a sophomore last season.

“I’m just looking to keep improving,” the confident junior said. “When I shoot something I shot last year, it just makes me feel down kind of, because I feel like I should be a lot lower than that (in strokes).”

For some reason, Bermel never could get a feel for the greens and she said her putting suffered as a result. Schmidtberger

“Abby always stays really positive and really consistent,” Bermel said.

“She never really had any blow-up holes. If she had a bad hole it was like a bogey, or a double maybe.”

When Schmidtberger ran into trouble on the greens, she had at least reached in regulation. So her three-putts stuck with her once the round ended.

“I could’ve dropped

a bunch of strokes,” she said of makeable putts. “I could’ve been in the 70s probably.”

Two other city players broke 100 at the tournament. Free State junior Karen Campbell finished tied for 29th, with a 91, and Lawrence senior Campbell Drake tied for 33rd at 92.

Olathe Northwest (345) won the tournament, beating both Shawnee Mission East and St. Thomas Aquinas by three strokes.

Free State (384) took 10th at the 18-team event and Lawrence (408) was 14th.

following the BramanSchneider comeback and an 8-7 (7-3) tiebreaker win for Birt and Baloga in No. 3 doubles.

Because Lawrence had only defeated Free State, head-to-head, once in program history, Pritchard said the dual took on an added level of significance. And the Lions’ early cushion gave her some added motivation against McReynolds, whom Pritchard had never before defeated.

“This one was kind of a big deal,” Pritchard said of her singles win, which, like the Birt and BramanSchneider victories, gave LHS a seeding advantage over their FSHS opponents for the Sunflower League Tournament — to be played Thursday at Leavenworth.

The Lions’ wins would have felt even sweeter, Pritchard said, had they left the dual on top.

“It’s really disappointing,” Pritchard said after FSHS improved its dual record against Lawrence to 16-1. “Out of all the people we play, those are the people we want to beat. We always have next year.”

BRIEFLY LHS soccer tops Leavenworth, 6-0 LEAVENWORTH — Lawrence High’s soccer team scored five second-half goals in a 6-0 victory over Leavenworth on Tuesday.

Hunter Kelley and Jakob Burdett had two goals apiece, while Connor Henrichs and Cale Bertrand had one each. Amos Rel had two assists, while Burdett, Henrichs, Matt Mantooth and Narito Mendez each had one assist. Goalkeeper Andrew Ornburn had a save.

“I was pleased. We have been a strong second-half team all season,” coach Mike Murphy said. “We did a nice job keeping possession and working the ball. We talked about working outside/in and did a nice job of that. We didn’t press things; played within ourselves getting in position to score.”

LHS (4-4-1) will play Free State at 7 p.m. Thursday at LHS.

Veritas volleyball wins two at tri Veritas Christian went 2-0 in a girls volleyball triangular Tuesday at Central Middle School.

Veritas defeated Wichita Sunrise Academy, 27-25, 25-18, and Manhattan CHIEF, 25-10, 25-18.

Veritas’ Teri Huslig had four aces, 30 kills, 14 assists and four blocks, Lacey Billings had eight aces, five kills, 19 assists and three blocks, and Allie Swisher two aces, two kills and 14 digs.

“They did a great job,” Veritas coach Kyle Billings said. “Things finally seem to be coming together for some of our younger players.

They’re playing as a team.”

Veritas (18-5) will play Derby and Cair Paravel on Thursday in Eudora.

KU men’s golf finishes second MADISON, WIS. — Chase Hanna tied for fifth place and Jackson Foth tied for 10th to lead Kansas University’s men’s golf team to a runner-up finish on Tuesday at the Badger Invitational.

Hanna carded a 71-7372—216 (even-par) and Foth a 73-72-75—220 (+4) as KU finished 24 strokes back.

Boonraksasat’s 72-7075—216 was followed by KU’s Yupaporn Kawinpakorn’s 74-71-73—218, good for a tie for seventh place.

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR PLAYER BROOKE BRAMAN LUNGES IN to send a volley over the net during a doubles match against Free State on Tuesday at FSHS.

LHS took a 2-1 lead at the dual through three doubles matches, and Strawderman pointed to Hawkins and Dodd for turning the tide in Free State’s favor once singles play began.

“Those two really set the tone for the other singles matches and showed the other girls we’re not just rolling over,” Strawderman said. “We’re here on our courts and we’re gonna win this.”

Typically, because Free State only competes in two duals a season, Hawkins and Dodd regularly play doubles matches exclusively.

“It’s a nice change-up,” Hawkins said, “because you’re playing every point and the ball’s always coming to you. Then again it’s a lot more pressure not having that other person there. If you get down on yourself, you have to bring yourself back up.”

Pritchard said the Lions felt positive about their early 2-1 lead in the dual,

BIG 12 FOOTBALL

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

Longtime Texas AD Dodds ready to retire AUSTIN, TEXAS (AP) — DeLoss Dodds, the Texas athletic director who built the program into a Goliath of college sports in terms of wealth, power and prestige, said Tuesday he is ready to retire and leave the Longhorns — and some potentially tough coaching decisions — in someone else’s hands after three decades at the helm.

The 76-year-old Dodds has led the Texas program since 1981, when he took a job that oversaw an athletic department budget of about $4 million. He will leave it Aug. 31, 2014, with an annual budget of nearly $170 million, upgraded and expanded facilities, and its own television network.

“This is a big day for me. I’ve thought a lot about it,” Dodds said at a campus news conference with university President Bill Powers. “In 62 years, it will be the first time I haven’t had a job ... That’s long enough to work ...

We’ve had a great run.”

Dodds will move into a paid consulting role after he steps down as AD. Powers said a search for Dodds’ replacement will begin immediately and the new boss could step into the job as soon as being hired, with Dodds helping make the transition.

“We do not need somebody in a week,” Powers said. “We can be thoughtful.”

Instead of just a long goodbye for an administrator who wielded influ-

TEXAS ATHLETIC DIRECTOR DELOSS DODDS FORMALLY ANNOUNCES HIS RETIREMENT during a news conference, Tuesday in Austin, Texas. Dodds, who has been with the Longhorns for 32 years, will step down in August 2014. ence over not just Texas but over entire conferences, Dodds’ departure intensifies speculation over football coach Mack Brown’s future with the Longhorns.

Dodds and Powers have been Brown’s strongest allies against a restless fan base frustrated by three sub-par seasons and a 2-2 start in 2013. Brown, who has been at Texas since 1997 and won the 2005 national championship, has often noted their support and Tuesday’s announcement means a key piece of that foundation is leaving.

Brown is under contract until 2020 and has said he wants to keep coaching.

He will be paid about $5.4 million this year with an-

nual raises in his contract.

Dodds deflected questions about potential coaching changes, saying his replacement should be involved in such decisions.

“I’m not going to go there,” Dodds said. “That’s an answer that will work itself out over the next several weeks. Anything this department does significantly needs to have the hands of the new person.”

Brown was at football practice and did not attend the news conference, but the school released a statement from him calling Dodds “a great leader and great friend.”

“I feel very blessed to have had the opportuni-

ty to work for him for 16 years, and I know I speak for many when I say I’m happy he will be helping the department’s transition to a new athletics director,” Brown said.

Dodds is under contract at Texas through 2015 at $700,000 per year with a $1 million annuity if he’s employed at the end of August 2014.

Dodds came to Texas from Kansas State in 1981 and presided over an expanding Texas empire at a time the business side of college sports was rapidly growing. During his tenure, the Texas men’s program has won 14 national championships and 108 conference titles, most notably the football

national championship, the school’s first outright football title since 1969.

Dodds oversaw creation of the Longhorn Foundation, which pulled all the fundraising efforts for individual sports under one roof, and donors poured money into the athletic program. Over the past 20 years, Texas has spent $400 million on facilities as it grew into a massive, money-generating machine with the largest athletic budget in the country.

Dodds also shepherded the school’s move from the old Southwest Conference into the Big 12, and the school’s’ 20-year, $300 million partnership with ESPN for the Longhorn Network, a 24-hour channel dedicated to Longhorns sports.

The network, seen as a pioneering effort when first announced, proved to be a wedge between Texas and several Big 12 schools, some of whom eventually left the league. The network struggled to gain major distribution until finally signing a deal to be broadcast to Time Warner customers in Texas.

Dodds also navigated two rounds of conference upheaval in recent years.

In 2010, Texas flirted with joining the Pac-12 before deciding to stay in the Big 12. When another round of conference moves again threatened the stability of the Big 12 in 2011, Texas helped stabilize the conference as a 10-team league.

Powers called Dodds a visionary and “one of the giants in college athletics” who commanded the respect of university presidents, coaches and league commissioners.

Still, the athletic program is in a bit of turmoil.

Galvanized by the hiring of Brown in 1997, the football team had a dominant run from 2000-2009 during which the Longhorns went 69-9, won two Big 12 titles and twice played for the national championship.

The program has slipped in recent years with a 2418 record, including a 12-10 home record, since 2010.

The men’s basketball and baseball programs have declined as well. Basketball had its first losing season in 15 years under coach Rick Barnes last season, and the baseball team, once a perennial power, missed the NCAA postseason the last two years.

Earlier this month, a Texas regent said he and a prominent former regent spoke in January with Alabama coach Nick Saban’s agent in an attempt to lure Saban to Texas if Brown retired.

Dodds said he’d have made the same decision to retire whether the football team was 4-0 or 0-4.

He said it was time to spend more time with his wife and family.

“We need to go to Tuscany, need to see the leaves turn in the north,” Dodds said. “There’s a lot of life we need to live that we haven’t lived because we’ve worked.”

Big 12 up for grabs before first full week of matchups The fact that six teams got first-place votes in the preseason Big 12 poll was a sure sign that league would be unpredictable in 2013.

Good luck trying to figure out the conference race now.

Preseason favorite Oklahoma State lost on Saturday at West Virginia.

Presumptive contenders TCU and Texas each have two losses, and defending league champion Kansas State lost at home to FCS powerhouse North Dakota State.

Only Oklahoma, Baylor and Texas Tech survived September unbeaten. It’d be easy to peg the Sooners as the favorites after they won at Notre Dame over the weekend, but the Big 12 race could stretch past Thanksgiving.

The league’s first full week starts Thursday when Iowa State (1-2, 0-0 Big 12) hosts the Longhorns (2-2, 1-0).

It’s no surprise to see the Sooners in first place in a league they’ve won eight times since 2000, including a share of the title last season. But it might come

Texas Tech also has a shot to be 7-0 before their game against the Sooners.

Much like the Bears, the Red Raiders have made significant strides on defense.

Texas Tech (4-0, 1-0) has allowed just 10 points a game over its last three and will head into Saturday’s game at Kansas well rested after last week’s bye.

Given how volatile the Big 12 should be this season, even the teams off to shaky starts have a chance to redeem themselves over the next two months.

Oklahoma State (3-1, 0-1) returns home Saturday to face Kansas State (2-2, 0-1). Though the Cowboys got off to a rough start in league play, they know there’s still plenty of time to move up the Big 12 standings.

“They’ve had a lot of success here over the last four or five years. So when they lose, they’re disappointed. But you really don’t have a choice in college football. You’ve got to get ready to play the next game,” Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said.

OKLAHOMA’S BLAKE BELL (10) ESCAPES A TACKLE

by Notre Dame ‘s Dan Fox during the second half of their game on Saturday in South Bend, Ind. Oklahoma defeated Notre Dame, 35-21.

BRIEFLY Coach: WVU QB still up in the air CHARLESTON, W.VA. — Two of West Virginia’s three quarterbacks have nagging injuries, and West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen said Tuesday he’s not sure who will start Saturday at No. 17 Baylor.

Holgorsen said he’ll monitor the quarterbacks in practice before naming a starter.

Clint Trickett got knocked around against Oklahoma State last week and has a sore throwing arm. The junior left the game for one play but returned to finish out the win.

Redshirt freshman Ford Childress started in a loss at Maryland the week before and in a win over Georgia State. He sat out last week with a torn chest muscle.

Junior Paul Millard started the first two games and Holgorsen said he was the only one at full health.

“

Popular punter During KU’s bye week, former Kansas City offensive coordinator Weis made a quick trip to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. One of the first people to find him was Chiefs’ all-pro punter Dustin Colquitt.

“The first question Colquitt asked me was, ‘Tell me about your punter,’ because he was worried about losing his job two years from now to this kid,” Weis said of KU junior Trevor Pardula.

“He said, ‘Did he really kick a Pardula 78 yarder?’

I said, ‘Yeah, the next one was only 65.’ It gets their attention.”

Pirates turn back Reds; Cardinals next PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Pirates went 21 years between playoff games. The wait will be significantly shorter this time around.

Russell Martin homered twice, Francisco Liriano was dominant for seven innings and the Pittsburgh Pirates roared past Cincinnati for a 6-2 victory in the NL wild-card game Tuesday night.

In front of a black-clad crowd savoring its first postseason game since 1992, Marlon Byrd also connected and Andrew McCutchen had two hits and reached base four times for Pittsburgh.

“We’re for real,” McCutchen said. “We’re definitely for real.”

Liriano scattered four hits for the Pirates, who will face St. Louis in Game 1 of the NL division series Thursday. Liriano struck out five and walked one to win the first playoff game of his career.

“We didn’t talk about one and done, we talked about one and run,” Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. “Win one and run to St. Louis.”

Cincinnati starter Johnny Cueto struggled in his third start since coming off the disabled list last month. Cueto gave up four runs in 3 1/3 innings and appeared rattled by a raucous ballpark that taunted him by chanting his name.

PITTSBURGH’S ANDREW MCCUTCHEN DIVES BACK to first base on a pickoff attempt in the NL wild-card game. The Pirates defeated the Cincinnati Reds, 6-2, on Tuesday night in Pittsburgh. acquired by the Pirates in late August from the New York Mets, celebrated the first postseason at bat of his 12-year career — 1,250 games — by sending Cueto’s fastball into the seats to give the Pirates the lead. The shot sent another jolt through an already electric crowd, which began singing “Cue-to, Cueto” in unison when Martin stepped in.

“This is 20 years of waiting. You’re seeing it all come out in one night,” Martin said.

“Hopefully we can keep

this atmosphere till late October.”

Martin sent a drive into the bleachers in left field.

The Reds never recovered, ending a 90-win season with a six-game losing streak.

Three of those losses came against Pittsburgh at Cincinnati in the final series of the season that determined the site of the win-or-die game.

Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker backed Cueto before the game, saying his ace “thrives on this environment.” Maybe, but

the right-hander never looked comfortable in front of the largest crowd in PNC Park history, a place where Cueto has dominated.

Cueto, who came in 8-2 at the ballpark by the Allegheny River, even lost his grip on the ball while standing on the mound.

A moment later, he lost his grip on the game.

Martin’s 405-foot shot to left-center gave Pittsburgh a 2-0 lead and all the momentum Liriano would require.

Well-traveled Rays in Cleveland to face Indians CLEVELAND (AP) — Sporting sunglasses, a teal shirt and a backpack hanging from his shoulder, Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon looked like a tourist as he arrived late for his news conference.

Maddon didn’t have time to slip into his uniform and had a valid excuse. The Rays have been on the road.

In the past week, they’ve gone from Tampa to New York to Toronto to Texas to Cleveland, a journey covering 3,627 miles.

Tonight, the Rays hope to book a trip to Boston.

Getting a complete game from starter David Price, Tampa Bay beat Texas, 5-2, in a tiebreaker on Monday night, earning the Rays a wild-card spot for the third time in four years and a chance to face the Indians, making their first appearance in the playoffs since 2007.

The Cleveland Indians and Tampa Bay Rays will meet in the American League wild-card game tonight in Cleveland. the Indians and Rangers in a thrilling wildcard scramble in the final weeks of September, the Rays won in Toronto on Sunday before traveling deep in the heart of Texas and surviving a win-or-gohome scenario.

“I’ll tell you what,” said

Maddon, whose team went 14-5 after Sept. 12. “We’ve already played this wildcard game a couple times.

We did it in Toronto a couple days ago. We did it yesterday in Texas, and we’re going to come here tomorrow and do it again.

I don’t know if there’s a

battle-tested component to that, if you get immune to whatever that pressure is and you go play.”

Tonight’s winner will meet the Red Sox in Game 1 of the division series on Friday.

The Rays always believed they’d be in posi-

tion to make a run at a first World Series title. And although they’ve racked up some frequent-flyer miles and lived out of their suitcases to keep their season alive, they’re confident their season isn’t about to end.

“When you get into this momentum kind of a thing on a daily basis and you’re playing great competition and you’re going from city to city to city and it’s an adverse territory, all of this stuff is what you train for and you really dig and you love it,” Maddon said.

“You don’t have time to get nervous or overthink, you’ve just got to get ready and go play — and for our guys, they kind of like that moment right now.”

Like the Rays, the Indians had to scrap their way into the postseason.

Cleveland ended a topsy-turvy regular season under manager Terry Francona by ripping off 10 wins in a row, playing error-free ball during the stretch.

Matchups: The winner advances to meet AL East champion Boston Red Sox in best-of-five series that begins Friday. ... The Rays are in the playoffs for the fourth time in six seasons, joining the Yankees, Cardinals and Phillies as the only teams to make it at least four times since 2008.

They also were a wild card in 2011, earning the spot on the final night of the regular season when Evan Longoria homered in the 12th inning. Tampa Bay also earned berths as AL East champions in 2008 and 2010.

Since making a surprising run to the World Series in their first postseason appearance, Tampa

Bay’s last two October’s ended with losses to Texas in the divisional round. ... The Indians are making their first postseason appearance since 2007, when they lost to Red Sox in ALCS. ... With one of baseball’s deepest rotations leading the way, the Rays won 14 of their last 19 regular season games to rebound from a stretch in which they dropped 13 of 17 and fell out of contention for a third division title in six years. Since the wild card was added to the playoff format in 1995, only four other teams have pulled out of stretches in which they went 4-13 in the closing weeks of a season to earn a postseason berth. The Yankees did it in 1995 and 2000. The 2000 Mariners and 2008 Braves were the others. ... The Rays finished with 90-plus wins for the fourth straight season, the longest active streak in the majors. Tampa Bay took two of three in Cleveland. ... Manager Terry Francona, who signed with Cleveland in October after taking one-year layoff and working as broadcaster, won two World Series titles with Red Sox. He helped end an 86-year championship drought in Boston and the Curse of Bambino. ... The Indians haven’t won World Series since 1948. ... The Indians reeled off 10 straight wins to end regular season and clinch wild-card spot. ... Cleveland’s 92 wins are a 24-win jump from 2012.

... Salazar began season at Double-A Akron, but zoomed through system. He had a dazzling debut, carrying a nohitter into sixth inning on July 11 against Toronto. Indians have no hesitancy in handing a 23-year-old the ball because of his fastball and fearlessness. The Rays have not faced Salazar. ... The Indians were outscored 30-23 by Rays. ...

Cobb struck out six in 7 1-3 innings against Indians on April 6. ... Swisher is career .300 hitter (3 of 10) in 12 plate appearances against Cobb.

Big Picture: Rays: Longoria is the face of the Rays, however Myers has had a huge impact as a rookie.

Tampa Bay went 56-38 after Myers was promoted from Triple-A Durham on June 18.

The key acquisition in an offseason trade that sent pitcher James Shields to Kansas City, Myers has led the team in RBIs (53), runs scored (50) and doubles (23) since being called up. He’s second in hits (98) and homers (13). ... Myers and Zobrist led the Rays with .294 batting averages after the All-Star break. ... Reigning AL Cy Young Award winner David Price (10-8, 3.33) pitched the Rays into the playoffs with a 5-2, complete-game victory over Texas in Tuesday’s wild-card tiebreaker. ... Cobb, Wednesday’s starter, missed nearly two months with a con-

cussion after being hit in the head by a line drive. He beat the Rangers, Yankees and Orioles in his past three starts, pitching to a 1.16 ERA. He’s 18-4 with a 2.87 ERA in 33 starts since August 1, 2012. Detroit’s Max Scherzer is the only pitcher with a better record during that stretch at 27-4. ... The No. 3 starter is All-Star Matt Moore, a 17-game winner with a 3.29 ERA and 143 strikeouts in 150 1-3 innings. ...

The Rays are 11-14 in postseason games, 5-8 at home and 6-6 on the road. Longoria is the only player on the roster who’s appeared in all 25 games.

Indians: A roller-coaster regular season ended with a scintillating sprint in the final two weeks as the Indians swept the White Sox, Astros and Twins to go 21-6 in September and edged Texas and Tampa Bay in a three-team tussle that carried through the month. ...

Francona’s hiring last fall was followed by a stunning winter spending spree by Cleveland ownership. The Indians spent $117 million on free agents Bourn, Swisher, DH Mark Reynolds and RH Brett Myers. ... They lack power in middle of lineup, but the Indians have depth and hidden power from top to bottom with 10 players hitting at least 10 homers. ...

They don’t have any superstars, however, Indians have nice blend of talent and have embraced Francona’s team-first mantra.

a 20-year trek through purgatory.

Shin-Soo Choo homered in the eighth, a drive to right field that was upheld by video review.

Pittsburgh’s 94-win regular season reignited a relationship sullied by years of mismanagement and miserable play. When the gates opened two hours before the first pitch, fans — most of them dressed in black at the urging of MVP candidate McCutchen — sprinted to their seats in anticipation of the club’s first postseason game since Atlanta’s Sid Bream slid into home ahead of Barry Bonds’ throw in the bottom of the ninth in Game 7 of the 1992 National League championship series.

The victory sent the Braves to the World Series and the Pirates into an abyss it took an entire generation to escape.

The first step came with victory No. 82 on Sept. 9.

The next came two weeks later when a win over the Chicago Cubs assured a wild-card spot. The most thrilling yet lifted the team with the 26th-highest payroll in the majors ($73.6 million) into a showdown with baseball royalty.

The Reds, meanwhile, head into an offseason that could be eventful.

Baker has led Cincinnati to the playoffs in three of the last four years but the Reds failed to advance each time.

Oatmeal without apple sauce a fall faux pas

By Meryl Carver-Allmond Special to the Journal-World

My husband can make eggs better than a life-long cook at a short-order greasy spoon. Poached, fried, scrambled â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I can never hope to equal his masterful skill, so I rarely try. Breakfast has become almost entirely his domain, with just one little exception.

When the first wind shift of fall hits and visions of comfort foods begin to fill my dreams, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time for me to wake up and cook oatmeal.

While I try to shy away from the powdery â&#x20AC;&#x153;instantâ&#x20AC;? oatmeal packets, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m otherwise not religious about the oatmeal itself. I rarely have time for steelcut so â&#x20AC;&#x201D; just for practical reasons â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we typically buy regular or quick-cook.

What is absolutely critical, however, is the applesauce. A proper bowl of autumn oatmeal cannot be complete without a generMeryl Carver-Allmond/Special to the Journal-World ous dollop of homemade, THE RIGHT HOMEMADE APPLE SAUCE transforms your oatmeal from blah bowl to breakfast breakout. cinnamon-y applesauce stirred in.

And fortunately, making $ 2$ / Ă˝ 2 /4 $ 2$ / ra Ă˝Ä&#x2DC;Ÿþ homemade applesauce is much easier than knitting fuzzy scarves. With about an hour of largely inactive prep, you can easily stock your larder with enough applesauce to top hot oatmeal throughout fall.

To start, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need about 3 pounds of apples. I like to pick a mix of varieties â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a 1 2 1 2 64 couple of gala, three or four $& 4 ; 2 $& 4 ; 2 granny smiths â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a personal preference.

There’s a craft beer for any feast this fall

By Michael Felberbaum

roasted coffee, chocolate and caramel flavors. And as the weather gets cooler, an imperial stout is often suggested as a delicious way to warm up. Perfect for a long day of playing and watching football with family, entertaining friends and enjoying a bountiful Thanksgiving meal.

Associated Press

RICHMOND, VA. — Fall is a fine time to sample a wide variety of craft beers, because no matter what your autumnal activity there is likely to be a seasonal beer to make it better.

Whether you’re having a Halloween gathering, hosting a Thanksgiving feast, enjoying the fall foliage or taking the family apple picking, there are plenty of brews to help celebrate. Thankfully, they pair well with the foods we tend to crave as the temperatures drop and the leaves get their color.

By nature, craft beers can be hard to come by due to limited production and an often smaller distribution footprint. So to help you usher in fall, we’ve gathered a list of some favorite autumnfriendly craft brews that are more widely available, then we clustered accordcinnamon and ing to the festivities they clove, nutmeg to create what pair best with.

It loves roast meats and sharp cheddar.

Style: Triple IPA Alcohol: 10.1 percent Notes: The beginning of fall usually ushers in mostly malt-heavy beers for Oktoberfest and other autumn festivities, but there are still IPAs out there for those who enjoy hoppy beers. Green Flash’s Green Bullet is a combination of New Zealand-grown Pacific Gem and Green Bullet hops that yields a concoction that starts out sweet with the tastes of pine, citrus, mango and pineapple, but finishes on the bitter side. It likes big flavors, so try some wedges of those apples you just picked along with some charcuterie, such as prosciutto or serrano ham. If you save some apples for a classic pie, try it with some caramel sauce.

Creative lasagna worth the effort

W

e’re almost to the end of the CSA season. Not totally there yet, but we probably have a month to go if we’re super lucky.

So sad.

But we’re enjoying it while we can.

And we totally enjoyed this week’s Rolling Prairie CSA cooking experiment, which was basically an eggplant parmesan and cheese lasagna combined into one, minus the noodles, minus the parmesan.

Say what?

I found a recipe on one of my favorite blogs that happened to use thinly cut eggplant as the noodles in a lasagna.

It also included mushrooms and a sneaky bit of cauliflower in a way that I thought might entice the kiddo.

It took some work (I made it on a weekend night), but it was totally worth it and we had enough leftovers for two more dinners. Plus, not only did it use our CSA eggplant, but it used our CSA garlic from a few weeks ago and an onion and our mushrooms, plus more that we bought to make it work, from this week.

Thus, this one has all the markings of a new family favorite. The kiddo even tried a bite.

Yay for small victories.

Eggplant-Goat Cheese Lasagna For the “noodles”: 1 large eggplant A splash of balsamic vinegar For the “cauliflower ricotta”: 1 head cauliflower, or about 4-5 cups of florets 2 eggs 1/2 cup soft goat cheese (chevre) 1 teaspoon dried oregano Salt and pepper For the mushroom “meat”: 1 teaspoon butter or coconut oil 2 cloves garlic, minced Half of an onion, chopped 1 pound assorted mushrooms 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin Salt and pepper For assembling: A jar of your favorite marinara sauce Goat mozzarella, shredded (we just used more chevre because we couldn’t find this) Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Then, like traditional lasagna, we must first prepare all of the layers.

For the noodles: Using a mandolin, slice the eggplant lengthwise into thin strips. You may peel it first, if you like, but I took the easy route and left the skin on. Place the eggplant slices in a

Eat Your Vegetables

Sarah Henning dish, and toss with a bit of balsamic vinegar (or lemon juice). Set aside to let marinate.

For the cauliflower ricotta: Pulse the raw cauliflower florets in a food processor to make “rice.”

Then steam, strain and squeeze out the excess moisture, leaving the cooked rice fairly dry.

Transfer the strained cauliflower rice to a mixing bowl, and add in the two beaten eggs, goat cheese, oregano, and a dash of salt and pepper.

Mix well, and set aside.

For the mushroom “meat” layer: In a skillet over mediumlow heat, melt the butter or coconut oil and saute the garlic and chopped onions for about five minutes, or until translucent.

While the onions and garlic are cooking away, gently pulse the mushrooms in a food processor, until a “ground beef” like texture is achieved.

Add the ground mush-

rooms to the sauteed onions and garlic, and season with ground cumin, salt and pepper.

Saute until tender. The mushrooms will release some moisture, so be sure to strain well after cooking, and set aside.

To assemble: Begin by adding a thin layer of marinara sauce to the bottom of your glass dish– this will prevent sticking.

Next, layer on the eggplant slices, followed by half of the cauliflower ricotta, followed by half of the mushroom meat, a drizzle of marinara sauce and a bit of shredded goat mozzarella.

Repeat the layers, then top it all off with a final layer of eggplant slices, topped with more marinara and shredded goat mozzarella.

Bake in the oven, uncovered, for 45 minutes at 400 degrees.

The finished lasagna should be firm, with a crispy layer of cheese on top!

Slice and serve hot!

Serves 8 What’d we get this week? More eggplant, tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet potatoes, tat soi, lettuce mix and peppers.

t is time. Break out your Crock Pots, friend. If you have not yet jumped on the slow-cooker bandwagon, get with the program.

This is the wave of the future, er, past. Whatever, so what if it’s something your grandma did? I love my Crock Pot, though I do detest cleaning it (buy those bags — they’re worth their weight).

When I close down the grill, I open up the slow cooker. It replaces the grill nicely for a way to make no-fuss weeknight dinners or warm and homey Sunday meals.

And don’t be mistaken — slow-cooker cuisine doesn’t have to be full of cream of mushroom soup or overly fattening. It can be that, of course, and ain’t nothin’ wrong with it, but it can bring forth healthy and inventive things.

Recently, I made a nice

Toast CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10B

Ham and Cheese Stuffed French Toast Loaf When selecting your bread, first take a look at the loaf pan you plan to use. You’ll want a loaf that fits comfortably in your pan with a little wiggle room.

If you can only find loaves that are too big, just use a serrated knife to trim the loaf to fit before beginning the recipe.

Start to finish: 1 hour 15 minutes (10 minutes active) Servings: 8 1 loaf white sandwich bread, not sliced 3 eggs 1/2 cup milk 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 4 ounces deli sliced ham 8 ounces deli sliced turkey breast 1 cup grated cheddar cheese 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese If baking right away, heat the oven to 400 F. Coat a deep loaf pan with baking spray.

Use a bread knife to cut the loaf horizontally into thirds, creating bottom, middle and top layers. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, thyme, salt and pepper.

Place the bottom layer of the bread in the prepared loaf pan. Drizzle about a third of the egg mixture evenly over the bread, then use a fork to gently press

the bread all over to help it absorb the liquid.

Arrange half of the ham in an even layer over the bread. Top the ham with half of the turkey, followed by half of the cheese. Place the middle section of the bread over the ingredients, then use your hand to gently compress the bread and fillings. Drizzle another third of the egg mixture over the middle layer of bread, then press it gently with a fork to help it absorb the liquid.

Repeat the layering of ham, turkey and cheese, then top with the final layer of bread. Compress the bread and fillings as before, then carefully pour the remaining egg mixture over the top. Some will run down the sides between the bread and the pan; this is fine. Press the top of the bread with a fork the help it absorb the liquid.

Scatter the Parmesan cheese over the top of the loaf. Coat a sheet of foil with cooking spray, then use it to cover the pan. The stuffed French toast can be baked immediately, or refrigerated overnight.

When ready to bake, set the pan on the oven’s middle rack and bake for 1 hour, or until it reaches 155 F at the center. Uncover the pan and bake for another 5 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

To serve, cut the loaf into thick slices as you would a pound cake.

Bread stuffed with ham and cheese, then baked

By J.M. Hirsch Associated Press

How do you make a big, bold, savory French toast even bigger, bolder and more savory? Instead of building it a slice at a time, you build it by the loaf.

My inspiration was a

pillow-soft loaf of unsliced sandwich bread. Looking at it, I wondered what would happen if instead of cutting it into traditional slices and frying it a piece at a time â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or even assembling it in a layer as a casserole â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I instead cut the entire loaf horizontal-

ly into a few thick planks, stuffed it, then reassembled it in a loaf pan.

This recipe is the delicious result of that wondering.

Since French toast is such a perfect fall dinner â&#x20AC;&#x201D; warm and comforting â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I kept the fillings savory

with ham, cheddar cheese and turkey. But if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather go sweet, you could substitute jam, peanut butter, cream cheese, fresh berries, even chocolate chips.

While this dish can be assembled and immediately baked, it is even

better if you give it time to soak. You can assemble it the night before, then refrigerate until the following day an hour before dinner. Just pop it in the oven when you get home from work.

Dear Annie: I recently became engaged to my boyfriend of four years.

Immediately after he proposed, I phoned my parents, who always gave the impression that they liked my boyfriend and enjoyed spending time with him. I thought they’d be happy for us. I was very wrong.

My mom was really angry and said that I am “way too young” to be getting married. Annie, I’m in graduate school.

My dad said that my boyfriend “isn’t good enough” and that I should “seriously reconsider this guy.” (This guy! Like he doesn’t have a name.)

I am still in school, so perhaps this is their way of expressing their worry that if I get married I won’t finish my graduate program, but regardless, I’m really hurt by their reaction. I’ve tried reassuring them, but they keep brushing me aside, insisting I’m marrying

too young and to the wrong man.

I cannot figure out their problem. We are in our late 20s, which doesn’t strike me as “too young.” And if they truly believe my fiance isn’t the right person, why didn’t they say so in the intervening four years?

Why won’t they give me any concrete reasons for their objections? Sometimes I think what they’re really objecting to is the presence of another person in our small, closeknit family. But it seems selfish of them to place

Is ‘Super Fun Night’ brilliant or mean?

Will “Super Fun Night” (8:30 p.m., ABC) be embraced as a comedy breakthrough? Dismissed as mean-spirited? Or both?

Australian actress Rebel Wilson (“Pitch Perfect”) stars as Kimmie, a quirky and insecure low-level lawyer elevated to the big time who harbors a serious crush on a new colleague, the British lawyer Richard Royce (Kevin Bishop).

Any resemblances to the Jane Austen-inspired “Bridget Jones” movies are strictly intentional.

Last year’s standout comedy “The Mindy Project” did pretty much the same thing.

O n l y Kimmie is a super-sized Bridget Jones, who takes the selfmortification humor of “Mindy” to grotesque extremes. An unabashed fan of geeky movies, Kimmie has trouble engaging in the grown-up, professional world. She limits her social life to girls’-nightins with similarly awkward friends Marika (Lauren Ash) and HelenAlice (Liza Lapira). Together, these pals form a trifecta of highly stereotyped losers: Kimmie, the fat fangirl; Helen, the Asian dork; and Marika, the tomboy whose lesbian inclinations remain a secret only to herself. These characterizations are shot through with vicious condescension — much more than with the ensemble on “The Big Bang Theory.”

Some may argue that it’s time a big woman got to work the territory that plus-size male comics have dominated, from Jackie Gleason to John Belushi to Kevin James. But rather than infuse “slob” humor with a female sensibility, Wilson often resembles a drag performer. And the sight of a woman imitating a man playing a woman is more about a gender minstrel show than “empowerment” — and frequently more disturbing than amusing.

the current family dynamic over my future marriage and happiness.

Kids grow up. They get married.

I never in my wildest nightmares thought my engagement would be such a source of anger.

What do you think about this? — Sad Bride-To-Be Dear Sad: It does seem as though your parents suddenly realized that you are leaving the nest and they are panic stricken. Since they refuse to discuss their reasons with you, please ask a trusted friend or family member to intercede on your behalf and try to ascertain whether their objections have any justification. But ultimately, the decision about marriage belongs to you. We hope your parents will welcome your groom into the family instead of pushing you both away.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You might not be comfortable with everything you need to do. You know that the only way to get it all done is to dive right in and get going. Tonight: Join a friend for fun.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You’ll observe as someone continues to encounter obstacles — one right after the other.

Trying to pitch in and/or make a suggestion might be helpful to this person. Tonight: Remain responsive to a loved one at a distance.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You’ll want to see a situation with more insight and understanding; however, you might be stuck watching the same mental reruns over and over again. Tonight: Easy works.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You have a chance to open up to new people and new attitudes. Be willing to turn a situation around and see it differently.

Tonight: Relax.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You might be wondering when you should say that enough is enough. Someone close to you keeps taking advantage of your generosity. Tonight: Order in.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You will be in your ele-

ment, and you might feel as if you are able to make a difference. Your creativity spins a new solution for a child or friend. Tonight: Just be yourself.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Recognize what is happening behind the scenes with a friend or loved one. Sometimes the most supportive action is not acknowledging what is happening but rather letting this person handle the issue on his or her own. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) If you feel the impulse to take the lead, and you know full well that you have the support of the majority, do. Tonight: Ask, and you shall receive.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have a way of helping others that allows them to see a controversial idea in a manner in which they can accept it. Tonight: Could go to the wee hours.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Detach before deciding whether you can go along with a group decision. You’ll want to zero in on the most efficient and functional way to proceed. Tonight: Opt for something different.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Listen carefully to news that seems out of the norm. Perhaps the person who is delivering the message might not be emphasizing the right points. Tonight: Visit with a favorite person.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Defer to others, and make a difference that counts. Tonight: Go where the action is.

great-grandchildren. I am twice widowed, and one of my boyfriends also died.

I now have a new boyfriend. He is upset with two of my daughters-inlaw and a son-in-law because when they see me they say, “Hello, Motherin-Law!” He says they are being disrespectful for not using my name. He says they should call me “Grandma” or “Mom” or my given name.

This has caused a problem between us. What do you think? — J.G. Dear J.G.: Your boyfriend has no business issuing orders about how your children or their spouses address you. If it doesn’t bother you, it shouldn’t bother him. He sounds bossy and controlling. Tell him to back ACROSS off.
