Prison choir sings for redemption

A BISON COW AND HER CALF GRAZE ON THE 1100 WINDMILL PASTURE at the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve near Strong City. Twentytwo bison now populate the preserve. In 2009, 13 of them were brought from Wind Cave National Park site in the Black Hills region of South Dakota. The herd in South Dakota is one of only two public herds in the country that have been shown to be free of cattle DNA.

Bison herd that roams Flint Hills preserve shows a ‘family dynamic’

Members of the East Hill Singers, a chorus made up of inmates at Lansing Correctional Facility, will be performing today at First United Methodist Church. Statistics show that participants of the group have less of a chance of ending up back in prison after they’re released. Page 1C

ou can tell there is some tension. The tail is the first sign that gives it away. It is sticking straight up. Then there is the eye, planted in the side of a wide, steady head. It is not staring directly at you, but there is no doubt it sees you as plain as the sky is clear on this beautiful early fall day in the Flint Hills. As he pleases, this 1,400-pound bison — his back hump stands nearly as tall as the cab of a pickup truck — turns and faces you. Horns that protrude above a tuft of woolly

hair are pointed at you. The big bull starts to walk at his own deliberate pace toward the group of visitors standing nearby. There’s a general rule about a bison on the move: It’s best if you move a bit faster than the bison. So everybody scurries and shuts the truck doors tightly behind them. That leads to another saying about these animals: Bison have no boss. At least none with two legs. “That’s pretty obvious,” says cowboy Gene Matile, the ranch manager for this herd of bison — or buffalo, if you want to be informal. “He made all of us move.” Please see BISON, page 6A

State officials disagree over Vulgar license plates consequences of tax cuts are OUTALUK in Kan. By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — With the impact of Gov. Sam Brownback’s tax cuts becoming clearer, Democrats warn of debilitating cuts to state services while Brownback’s team says the budget is manageable. Brownback, a conservative Republican, will send to the Legislature in January a budget proposal that “keeps K-12 fully funded (and) covers all essential services,” according to Steve

Anderson, the governor’s budget director. Democrats, however, are doubtful, given new Davis state revenue projections released last week. “Local schools and core services will now face deeper cuts because Gov. Brownback pushed through a tax plan whereby the workers pay taxes, but the bosses do not,” said House Minor-

ity Leader Paul Davis, DLawrence. The numbers show that for the last complete fiscal year, total receipts to the state’s all-purpose general fund were $6.4 billion. But that will drop to $6.17 billion for the current fiscal year and to $5.46 billion for the next one. When the 2013 legislative session starts in January, Brownback and legislators will make adjustments to the current fiscal year budget and then start work on the

Want to proclaim your individuality on your Kansas license plate? Be careful what you say, state officials warn. Looking to pimp your ride with plates that say “BITEMEE,” “KZMIAZ“ or “AWSHIFT”? Forget it. Think you’re “2HOT4U”? Too hot for Kansas vehicles. Does driving make you say “AAAAHH”? Other drivers will never know. Are you a hockey

fan? “PUCKU” is out of bounds. Hoping to celebrate your birth year of 1969 on a plate? You’re out of luck. In all, nearly 1,800 combinations of words, numbers and phrases are banned from Kansas license plates, according to a list maintained by the State Department of Revenue and obtained by the Journal-World. Not surprisingly, the list is full of variations on sexual references, drug slang Please see VANITY, page 5A

Counseling center in tough spot without KU funding ————

Headquarters had received $36K annually By Matt Erickson

in Lawrence was founded by Kansas University students in 1969, and since then many KU students and alumni have made or answered calls on its 24-hour crisis hotline. But this summer, for the first time in 40 years, its financial ties to KU were cut. At the end of June, Headquarters stopped receiving $36,000 in annual funding from KU’s Student Senate, which had contributed funds to the center since 1972. That came not long after the center’s annual United Way funding decreased by about $26,000. Its annual budget for services in Douglas County is about $200,000, director Marcia Epstein said. “How long can we operate with

— Marcia Epstein, director of Headquarters Counseling Center this budget? Honestly, I can’t tell you that for sure,” Epstein said. Headquarters’ Student Senate funding came into doubt in spring of 2011, when the Senate opted to end funding of four Lawrence agencies using a student fee primarily used to provide money for student groups, as of summer 2012. The other agencies affected were GaDuGi SafeCenter, Douglas County AIDS Project and Willow Domestic Violence Center. Please see FUNDING, page 4A

Professionals tout benefits of AA program at meeting By Ian Cummings icummings@ljworld.com

JULIE HAGEMAN, OF LAWRENCE, PICKS OUT FLOWERS on Saturday at the Farmers’ Market as husband David Hageman looks on.

Members of Alcoholics Anonymous gathered in the Lawrence Memorial Hospital auditorium on Saturday for a meeting unlike any the area had seen in at least 30 years. It featured a panel of local professionals, including a judge, a church pastor, a representative from the Douglas County Jail, and a substance abuse counselor, who each led a discussion of how AA worked with their profession. One AA member, who drove all the way from Hays to speak to the group, said the goal was to discuss with professionals how

12-step programs could help those struggling with drugs and alcohol. “We don’t tell them what to do,” he said. “We tell them what AA does. We don’t say we have the market cornered on recovery.” The member from Hays said AA saved his life in 1998. He had been living on the street for years, sleeping behind Dumpsters, able to carry everything he owned in a paper sack. After going to meetings and following the program, he changed his life. He has a home, is married and cares for his stepchildren. He asked that his name not be used, to protect his Please see MEETING, page 4A

traditional anonymity as a member of AA. More than 30 members of Douglas County AA groups organized and attended the meeting, which was open to the public and also included members of Narcotics Anonymous. Each of the guest speakers said they supported AA’s efforts, and some had suggestions for how they could work together more effectively. Douglas County District Judge Sally Pokorny said the vast majority of assault, domestic violence and theft cases in her courtroom occurred because the offender was either under the influence or desperate for money to get their next fix of drugs or alcohol. But state budget cuts, she said,

have left the court with no easily available drug and alcohol treatment programs to send the offenders to. Pokorny often orders defendants to complete treatment plans that include AA meetings, but she does not order people directly to the meetings. “Some people are not ready,� she said. For years, AA and NA members have gone into the Douglas County Jail to hold meetings with prisoners. Mike Caron, the jail’s volunteer coordinator, said those meetings could be very effective in reaching people at a time when they most need help, and he is desperately looking for more volunteers to hold more meetings. “I’m getting to the point where if anybody says they’re willing to volunteer to come in and do a meeting, I try to schedule them that week,� he said.

-"83&/$& t 45"5& Union approves new Bombardier contract WICHITA (AP) — Members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers approved a five-year contract with Bombardier Learjet on Saturday, putting an end to the month-long walkout. The workers could return to the Wichita plant as soon as Monday. Bombardier spokeswoman Peggy Gross said the new deal received about 70 percent support from the union members who voted Saturday. The union, which represents about 825 workers, had recommended Friday that members support the contract. “We are satisfied with the outcome of the vote and are confident in moving forward and continuing to work with all of our employees,� said Ralph Acs, vice president and general manager of Bombardier Learjet. “The agreement reflects our mutual commitment to the long-term success of our site.�

The agreement was reached Thursday with the help of federal mediators. “The strike is over, we’ve taken down the picket lines and people will be returning to work Monday,� union spokesman Bob Wood said. “It certainly was an improvement, and people felt like it was time to accept that and go back to work.� Machinists walked off the job Oct. 8 after rejecting a five-year contract offer over the length of the proposal and an increase in health insurance costs. The new contract is similar to the earlier offer in that there is no wage increase the first year and a 1 percent wage bump the next four years. But the contract approved Saturday includes a larger signing bonus of $2,500. Health care was the primary issue that caused the strike, and was the focus of the mediation, the union said.

One difficulty, Caron said, was getting permission to let them into the jail. Many AA and NA members who are willing and able to volunteer are still on probation or parole from their own past run-ins with the law. He said jail administrators feared that such a volunteer could use the opportunity to smuggle in contraband, or blackmail a prisoner with information learned in a meeting. But, Caron said, he would work with any well-intentioned group member who stepped forward. Wally Mechler, a Lawrence counselor licensed to treat drug and alcohol addiction, said he has been sending clients to AA meetings for years.

Funding CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

The change drew opposition from some students and others, but Senate members said then they would look into other ways to fund the groups. And a group the following fall did just that. As a result, leaders at the other three agencies said their KU funding has continued unchanged this fall. But funding for Headquarters? No more. Carlye Yanker, the Student Senate treasurer for this school year, said members were unsure how many KU students were being helped by Headquarters’ crisis line, and they noticed that KU already had a Counseling and Psychological Services office on campus. So the Senate instead is now funding a CAPS afterhours phone line provided through Kansas Health Solutions in Topeka, as well as a new clinical social worker for the office. Senators thought that would ensure students’ fees would go toward services that would help them directly, Yanker said. “Every student pays these, and we’re trying to be the voice for them,� Yanker said. She also noted that the Kansas Health Solutions line is staffed by mental health professionals, as opposed to the largely volunteer force used by Headquarters. “We thought that was better for the students, and effective,� Yanker said. The new CAPS afterhour service, which became available to KU students at the same time Headquarters’ funding was cut off, provides assessment and referral services, can help students in need of psychiatric hospitalization, assistance in cases of “acute psychological distress� and a few other services, said CAPS clinical director Pam Botts in an email. But Headquarters’ workers, even though many are volunteers, are trained more specifically on suicide prevention, Epstein said. The center is credentialed by the American Association of Suicidology for suicide prevention, unlike the Kansas Health Solutions line or any other service in Kansas. Botts, too, said that was not the specialty of the new CAPS line. “This is not a suicide prevention hotline,� Botts said. She noted that students still have the option of calling the Headquarters line if they’re in need. Epstein, though, said Headquarters had been forced to cut back in several ways since it became apparent that its KU funding would soon be cut off. It has eliminated a fulltime staff position and two part-time jobs, and it ended its longtime practice of advertising twice per week in the University Daily Kansan to spread the word to students about its service. “We’ve pretty much eliminated advertising expenses,� Epstein said.

HOTLINES ! Douglas County residents can call Headquarters Counseling Center’s 24-hour crisis hotline at 785-841-2345. ! KU students can call the Counseling and Psychological Services Afterhours Call Center at 785-864-2277, or visit CAPS in person from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Thursday and Friday or 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday or Wednesday on the second floor of the Watkins Memorial Health Center, 1200 Schwegler Drive.

That’s unfortunate, she said, because the center’s success depends partly on its ability to get the word out about its services. The staff has three employees now, all full-time, in addition to 35 volunteers, many of whom are KU students. It also pays considerable phone costs, Epstein said. The center also provides other local services in addition to its 24-hour counseling line, ranging from bereavement support groups to children’s safety programs. Headquarters did receive a three-year $480,000 federal grant earlier this year, but that can be used only for new statewide suicide-prevention programs, not for its Douglas County services. “We certainly are working hard to come up with enough money, little places here and there,� Epstein said. According to Kansas Department of Health and Environment data, seven deaths by suicide occurred among 15- to 24-year-olds in Douglas County during 2010 and 2011 — as many that occurred during the four-year span from 20062009. Epstein pointed to a National Alliance on Mental Illness survey of college students with mental health conditions released last week that showed those students considered a 24-hour crisis hotline to be the single most critical mental health crisis service available on campus. She recalled that student senators had asked how many of the people served at Headquarters were KU students, and she had been able to provide concrete statistics. Compiling that information can be difficult, she said, but the center’s staff is working to improve its record-keeping with a new electronic system. Perhaps with help from improved numbers, Epstein said she hoped to push for reinstated Student Senate funding in the future. It would re-establish a direct link to KU that had existed for Headquarters since KU students founded it 43 years ago. “That’s pretty historic,� Epstein said. “That’s pretty impressive. It should be something for KU to be really proud of.� — Kansas University reporter Matt Erickson can be reached at 832-6388. Follow him at Twitter.com/LJW_KU.

Elections to look different as face of U.S. changes In Kansas, possible By Connie Cass and Nancy Benac

Obama wins Fla. electoral votes

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — It’s not just the economy, stupid. It’s the demographics — the changing face of America. The 2012 elections drove home trends that have been embedded in the fine print of birth and death rates, immigration statistics and census charts for years. America is rapidly getting more diverse, and, more gradually, so is its electorate. Nonwhites made up 28 percent of the electorate this year, compared with 20 percent in 2000. Much of that growth is coming from Hispanics. The trend has worked to the advantage of President Barack Obama two elections in a row now and is not lost on Republicans poring over the details of Tuesday’s results. Obama captured a commanding 80 percent of the growing ranks of nonwhite voters in 2012, just as he did in 2008. Republican Mitt Romney won 59 percent of non-Hispanic whites. Romney couldn’t win even though he dominated

And, more gradually, so is its electorate. among white men and outperformed 2008 nominee John McCain with that group. It’s an ever-shrinking slice of the electorate and of America writ large. White men made up 34 percent of the electorate this year, down from 46 percent in 1972. “The new electorate is a lagging indicator of the next America,� says Paul Taylor of the Pew Research Center. “We are midpassage in a century-long journey from the middle of the last century, when we were nearly

a 90 percent white nation, to the middle of this coming century, when we will be a majority minority nation.� Another trend that will be shaping the future electorate is the stronger influence of single women. They vote differently from men and from women who are married. Fifty-four percent of single women call themselves Democrats; 36 percent of married women do. With women marrying later and divorcing more, single women made up 23 percent of voters in the

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. — President Barack Obama was declared the winner of Florida’s 29 electoral votes Saturday, ending a four-day count with a razor-thin margin that narrowly avoided an automatic recount that would have brought back memories of 2000. No matter the outcome, Obama had already clinched reelection and now has 332 electoral votes to Mitt Romney’s 206. 2012 election, compared with 19 percent in 2000. The changing electorate has huge implications for public policy and politics. Suddenly, immigration overhaul seems a lot more important, for one thing. Ask white voters about the proper role of government, for another, and 60 percent think it should do less. Ask Hispanics the same question, and 58 percent think the government should do more, as do 73 percent of blacks, exit polls show.

Official: Emails led to probe in Petraeus scandal By Kimberly Dozier and Pete Yost Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The scandal that brought down CIA Director David Petraeus started with harassing emails sent by his biographer and paramour, Paula Broadwell, to another woman, and eventually led the FBI to discover the affair, U.S. officials told The Associated Press on Saturday. Petraeus quit Friday after acknowledging an extramarital relationship. The official said the FBI investigation began several months ago with a complaint

against Broadwell, a 40-yearold graduate of the U.S. Military Academy and an Army Petraeus Reserve officer. That probe led agents to her email account, which uncovered the relationship with the 60-year-old retired four-star general, who earned acclaim for his leadership of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The identity of the other woman and her connection with Broadwell were

not immediately known. Concerned that the emails he exchanged with Broadwell raised the possibility of a security breach, the FBI brought the matter up with Petraeus directly, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to publicly discuss the investigation. The FBI approached the CIA director because his emails in the matter were in most instances sent from a personal account, not his CIA one. Petraeus decided to quit, abruptly ending a high-profile career that

might have culminated with a run for the presidency, a notion he was believed to be considering. Petraeus handed his resignation letter to President Barack Obama on Thursday, stunning many in the White House, the CIA and Congress. The news broke in the media before the House and Senate intelligence committees were briefed, officials say. By Friday evening, multiple officials identified Broadwell. Members of Congress said they want answers to questions about the affair that led to Petraeus’s resignation.

defense cuts cause uncertainty

By John Milburn Associated Press

TOPEKA — The state’s adjutant general is bracing for changes to the way the Kansas National Guard operates, particularly if President Barack Obama and Congress are unable to avoid a crisis that would mandate massive spending cuts. Reductions were already anticipated before the feared fiscal cliff, a collision of expiring tax cuts and automatic, acrossthe-board reductions in defense and other federal programs should a compromise not be worked out by the end of the year. “We look at threats and trends. The budget projections are a trend. We see that coming down in Kansas, and the National Guard’s not going to be exempt from those pressures and the budget decisions at the national level,� Maj. Gen. Lee Tafanelli said. R e p . Kevin Yoder, a Republican who won a second term T u e s d a y Yoder in the 3rd District, said Friday that he would prefer Congress act quickly to find a long-term solution to the budget and tax issues, not settling for a short-term fix that only delays tougher decisions. “I’m one who wants us to work on this immediately,� said Yoder, a member of the House Appropriations Committee. “The American people are tired of short-term extensions. All of these short-term deals we’ve been doing prolong the recession. To do it the way we’re doing it isn’t going to be good for the mili-

tary or the economy.� Tafanelli, a former state legislator who commanded an engineer battalion during the Iraq War, said there would be an impact felt on the Kansas National Guard as budget pressures mount. Thus far, the state has only lost 25 Air Guard positions at the 184th Air Intelligence Wing in Wichita. Among the challenges for the National Guard will be providing training necessary to respond to state emergencies or deploy overseas with limited resources. No cuts have been proposed in the number of Kansas units, though reductions have occurred in civilian employment at Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth, active duty Army post in Kansas. Tafanelli said Kansas would continue to watch the situation closely, whether it calls for increasing the size of the force, changing the types of units it has or taking reductions. He prefers that the state have some say in how those challenges play out so that the National Guard can continue to meet its duties. “It’s not like we can go to the store and pick up the (unit) structure we want. We’ve got a group that’s looking at that continuously,� he said. Tafanelli said Kansas is better situated than it was a decade ago in terms of having the equipment it needs to train and deploy for state or federal duty. He said the state has the same “first-generation� equipment being used by the active duty force. That positions the state better to respond to disasters or train for war instead of using “authorized substitutes for the real item, or in many cases substitutes for the substitutes.�

Worst outcome The governor’s decision takes away any role the state would have had in setting up health insurance exchanges that provide the best service for Kansans.

K

ansas is primed to get the worst possible outcome of a federally run health insurance exchange, thanks to Gov. Sam Brownback’s decision not to support an application for a state-federal partnership. Brownback previously rejected $31.5 million in federal funds that were allocated to enable the state to create the computer infrastructure for its own exchange. He said he expected the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the federal law mandating creation of the exchanges. When that didn’t happen, he said he would await the outcome of the presidential election, assuming that Republican Mitt Romney would be elected and quickly have the law erased from the books. So much for that. All along, the Kansas Insurance Department, guided by Lawrence’s Sandy Praeger, insurance commissioner, has been laying the groundwork for an exchange that could be operated by Kansans, for Kansans. Her staff had prepared an application that would have enabled Kansas to fill the roles of plan management and consumer assistance. Kansas would have received federal funds to spend on creating the partnership exchange, but only if Brownback supported the application for the funds and the 2013 Legislature authorized their expenditure. Bye-bye. Kansas will have to live with the federal exchange. Apparently the governor is sticking us with the least palatable alternative, probably deliberately. His explanation rings hollow. “My administration will not partner with the federal government to create a state-federal partnership insurance exchange because we will not benefit from it, and implementing it could cost Kansas taxpayers millions of dollars,” he said. So Kansas will get the federal exchange. The expectation is that the default benchmark plan for Kansas now will be the largest health plan by enrollment in the state’s small group market. This is the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas Comprehensive Major Medical – Blue Choice PPO product, amended to meet all the “essential health benefits” mandated by the federal plan. For plan years 2016 and beyond, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will revisit the “essential health benefits” benchmark approach to ensure that the EHB continues to reflect appropriate medical practices and insurance market protocol. As William Allen White, the Emporia editor wrote in 1896 in his famous screed, “What’s the Matter with Kansas?”: “Go east and you hear them laugh at Kansas; go west and they sneer at her; go south and they cuss her; go north and they have forgotten her. Go into any crowd of intelligent people gathered anywhere on the globe, and you will find the Kansas man on the defensive. The newspaper columns and magazines once devoted to praise of her, to boastful facts and startling figures concerning her resources, are now filled with cartoons, jibes and Pefferian speeches. Kansas just naturally isn’t in it. She has traded places with Arkansas and Timbuctoo.” If he came back today, White might conclude that little has changed.

GOP should ‘start all over again’ Nothing’s impossible I have found, For when my chin is on the ground, I pick myself up, Dust myself off, Start all over again. — From the 1936 movie “Swing Time” WASHINGTON — Conservatives should jauntily sing as Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers did in a year in which the country’s chin was on the ground. Conservatives are hardly starting from scratch in their continuing courtship of an electorate half of which embraced their message more warmly than it did this year’s messenger. The election’s outcome was foreshadowed by Mitt Romney struggling as long as he did to surmount a notably weak field of Republican rivals. His salient deficiency was not of character but of chemistry, that indefinable something suggested by the term empathy. Many voters who thought he lacked this did not trust him to employ on their behalf what he does not lack, economic understanding. On Feb. 11, 2011, the person who should have been the Republican nominee laconically warned conservatives about a prerequisite for persuading people to make painful adjustments to a rickety entitlement state. Said Indiana’s Gov. Mitch Daniels: “A more affirmative, ‘better angels’ approach to voters is really less an aesthetic than a practical one. With apologies for the banality, I submit that, as we ask Americans to join us on such a boldly differ-

“

With much work — the most painful sort: thinking — to be done, conservatives should squander no energy on recriminations.” ent course, it would help if they liked us, just a bit.” Romney was a diligent warrior. Next time, Republicans need a more likable one. And one who tilts toward the libertarian side of the Republican Party’s fusion of social and laissez-faire conservatism. Most voters already favor less punitive immigration policies than the ones angrily advocated by clenchedfist Republicans unwilling to acknowledge that immigrating — risking uncertainty for personal and family betterment — is an entrepreneurial act. The speed with which civil unions and same-sex marriage have become debatable topics and even mainstream policies is astonishing. As is conservatives’ failure to recognize this: They need not endorse such policies but neither need they despise those, such as young people, who favor them. And it is strange for conservatives to turn a stony face toward

any reconsideration of drug policies, particularly concerning marijuana, which confirm conservatism’s warnings about government persistence in the teeth of evidence. With much work — the most painful sort: thinking — to be done, conservatives should squander no energy on recriminations. Romney ran a gallant campaign. Imitation is the sincerest form of politics, and Republicans should emulate Democrats’ tactics for locating and energizing their voters. Liberals have an inherent but not insuperable advantage: As enthusiasts of government, to which many of them are related as employees or clients, they are more motivated for political activity than are conservatives, who prefer private spaces. Never mind. Conservatives have a commensurate advantage: Americans still find congenial conservatism’s vocabulary of skepticism about statism. And events — ongoing economic anemia; the regulatory state’s metabolic urge to bully — will deepen this vocabulary’s resonance. It is frequently said and probably true that many people are more informed when picking a refrigerator than when picking a president. This may, however, be rational ignorance because the probability of any individual’s vote mattering to an election’s outcome is negligible compared to the effort required to acquire information and vote. (Elections are run by governments, so it is unwise to expect them to be run well, but

really: Are hours-long waits at polling places inevitable?) Fortunately, the electoral vote system, by requiring 51 presidential elections, multiplies the chances of competitive contests and of votes with magnified importance. As the stakes of politics increase with government’s size, so does voter engagement. And 2012 redundantly proved what 2010 demonstrated. The 2010 elections, the first after the Supreme Court’s excellent Citizens United decision liberalized the rules about funding political advocacy, were especially competitive. Social science confirms what common sense suggests: More spending on political advocacy means more voter information and interest. The approximately $2 billion spent in support of this year’s presidential candidates — only about two-thirds as much as Procter & Gamble spent on U.S. advertising last year — surely contributed to the high turnout in targeted states. Media and other “nonpartisan” — please, no chortling — dismay about “too much money in politics” waned as seven of the 10 highestspending political entities supported Democrats and outspent the three supporting Republicans, according to the Wall Street Journal. The advocacy infrastructure that is being developed by both sides in the post-Citizens United world will, over time, favor the most plausible side, which conservatives know is theirs. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 11, 1912: YEARS “The police AGO yesterday afterIN 1912 noon swooped down upon a room upstairs in the 700 block of Massachusetts street, caught seven young men engaged in a lively Pitch game, with money involved, and took the entire party prisoners. At the police station they all furnished bond for their appearance in court this evening. It is understood that the entire lot will plead guilty to the charge of gambling.... Most of the men involved are youths of very immature ages and most of them come from good homes.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Change won’t be easy for Republicans “How ya like me now?” — Barack Obama OK, so Obama didn’t really say that but surely, he must have thought it behind a private smile at some point Tuesday night. There are no smiles among the Republicans, however, only a pressing question: Can the GOP fix itself? Can a party whose appeal is wholly white and mainly male learn to appeal to a rainbow electorate that is neither? Especially after it has spent so many years denigrating that rainbow, drawing lines in sand, placing chips on its shoulder. There are hopeful signs that our long national hissy fit may at last be over. House Speaker John Boehner was making conciliatory noises about resolving the economic impasse the day after the election. Some of the party’s most prominent voices, including Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, have been speaking of the need for the GOP to broaden its appeal. So maybe the adults are finally returning home. But the place is a wreck, because the kids (looking at you, Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain) have been having quite the party. And repairing it is going to be a long and difficult process.

All that said, the biggest question here is not whether the GOP can transform itself, but whether it can even try.”

den GOP outreach to those it spurned while courting angry older white men must unavoidably appear conniving, self-conscious and self-serving. And once you get past the problem of appearances, there is the simple question of what it will take to undo the damage the party has inflicted upon itself with those groups. How long will it be before gay men and lesbians are willing to forgive and forget that the party has routinely demeaned their relationships and impugned their moral fitness? How long will it take before Hispanics are willing to

let bygones be bygones with a party that spoke of “selfdeportation” and cheered the notion of a border fence to electrocute undocumented Mexican workers? And how much time must go by before African-Americans are willing to look past the GOP’s unrelenting and deeply personal disrespect toward the nation’s first African-American president, its insistence on treating him as some foreign Other who, in John Sununu’s memorably tawdry phrase, must “learn how to be an American.” All that said, the biggest question here is not whether the GOP can transform itself, but whether it can even try. At this point, the Republicans are less a traditional political party than what disenchanted former GOP staffer Mike Lofgren has called an “apocalyptic cult.” And cults are remarkably fact resistant. Cultists live in a reality of their own construction and, far from being chastened by it, they thrive on rejection. So while the grownups in the party may be reading the writing on the demographic wall and believe it calls on them to abandon extremism, there is every reason to believe the rest of the party will think

that writing requires them to double down on it instead. Indeed, even as Rubio and Boehner were talking sense, party icons were talking the same old craziness. Donald Trump called for revolution in the wake of Obama’s re-election. Ted Nugent called Obama supporters “pimps, whores ... welfare brats” and “soulless fools.” Bill O’Reilly said people voted for Obama because he will “give them things.” And so on. This, then, is the dilemma Republicans have created for themselves by their own short-sightedness. It was all well and fine to embrace angry white male extremism so long as white male extremism was able to deliver elections. That day is passing and the party awakens in a new America, desperately needing to change but quite possibly prevented from doing so by the very craziness it has so long cultivated. Ain’t that a kick in the head? For years, the party has won elections by inventing enemies for angry white men to fear. But at this point, the GOP has no bigger enemy than itself. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

WASHINGTON — A farm bill that stalled in Congress before the election could see quick action by the end of the year if congressional leaders decide they need its spending cuts — including a small reduction in the $80-billion-a-year food stamps program — to make a deal for averting the “fiscal cliff.� The farm bill passed by the Senate in June would save $23 billion over 10 years, while a version passed by the House Agriculture Committee in July would save $35 billion. The savings come from cuts to farm subsidies and by tightening eligibility requirements for those who receive food stamps, now known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. That pot of money could be useful to lawmakers who will be scrambling in the year’s final weeks to address the combination of tax increases and automatic spending cuts due in January — dubbed the fiscal cliff because the combination could plunge the economy into another recession. The Senate has already passed its version of the farm bill. So any decision to make it part of a budget agreement will require the acquiescence of Republican House leaders who stopped action on the bill before the election, saying there weren’t enough votes. But they also avoided a nasty and what would have been a highly visible pre-election floor fight over food stamps. Democrats said the program, which feeds about 1

Kansas man gets 9 years for putting kids in dryer HUTCHINSON — A Kansas man has been sentenced for a third time for putting two young children in a hot clothes dryer to punish them, and his attorney says he plans to appeal the sentence again. Aron Pritchard of Hutchinson was convicted in March

2008 of child abuse and endangering a child for putting his girlfriend’s 3-year-old son and 2-year-old daughter in a dryer and turning it on. The Hutchinson News reports Pritchard initially was sentenced to 124 months in prison. The case was sent to the Court of Appeals

SEN. PAT ROBERTS, R-KAN., ranking Republican on the Senate Agriculture Committee, listens at left as Committee Chairwoman Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich. speaks about the farm bill during a news conference June 6 on Capitol Hill in Washington. in 7 Americans, shouldn’t be touched while conservatives complained the bill’s 2 percent cut in the program — $1.6 billion a year — was too small. Doug Heye, a spokesman for House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, said no decisions have been made on how to move the farm bill or whether it will be part of the fiscal negotiations. The 2008 farm bill expired Sept. 30, so Congress at a minimum will have to extend parts of it into next year. Senate Agriculture Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., signaled her eagerness to pair the two bills with a statement Friday saying the farm bill’s passage would be “a significant first step in meeting the critical deficit reduction challenges our country must face headon this year.� Retiring Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., said he has already started working on a compromise farm bill in an

effort to move it alongside deficit reduction. Conrad, who chairs the Senate Budget Committee and sits on the Agriculture Committee, said he spent part of Congress’ election recess consulting with Senate and House aides who worked on the legislation. The House and Senate farm bills differ in how they address subsidies for farmers. But the biggest difference between the two versions is the amount cut from food stamps: The Democratic-led Senate’s bill would cut $4 billion from the almost $800 billion program over 10 years; the GOP-led House’s version would cut $16 billion. Conrad said he has attempted to “take some sort of reasonable difference� between the House and Senate bills but would not provide details. He argues that next year’s budget will be even worse and farm-state legislators will be forced to make even deeper cuts.

ON THE FINAL PLAY OF THE GAME, TEXAS TECH SAFETY D.J. JOHNSON (12) TIPS A PASS IN THE END ZONE away from Kansas receiver Tre’ Parmalee (11) during the second overtime of KU’s 41-34 loss on Saturday in Lubbock, Texas. At right is Red Raiders defensive back Bruce Jones.

Kansas throws real scare into Red Raiders By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

LUBBOCK, TEXAS — On the fifth play of an improbable overtime at Jones AT&T Stadium, Kansas University quarterback Michael Cummings drifted back and fired a pass to running back James Sims, who stabbed it with two hands at the goal line and gave the Jayhawks their first lead of the day. With the clock no longer

running and Kansas needing just one more stop from a defense that delivered them all afternoon, Cummings celebrated his second touchdown pass of the game with a slide step and celebratory slap of the Texas Tech turf. “I thought the game was over after that,” said Cummings. “I thought we would wrap the game up on defense.” There was good reason for KU’s red-shirt freshman

quarterback to have such faith. After all, in front of an announced crowd of 55,052 on Texas Tech’s Senior Day, KU’s defense held Tech’s high-powered offense to just six points in the second half and even forced TTU quarterback Seth Doege into some uncomfortable situations and uncharacteristic mistakes. But after pushing the Red Raiders (7-3 overall, 4-3 Big 12) to a third-and-long

situation in the initial overtime, the home team broke through, first tying the game on a one-yard TD run from tailback Eric Stephens and, one possession later, winning on a three-yard Stephens pass.

You could see for miles and miles and miles in every direction, but two things you could not see, no matter how hard you tried, no matter how many times you squinted. First, you could not see a change in elevation. Second, you could not see any way Kansas University’s football team could make a game of it against 25thranked Texas Tech. The Red Raiders have so much more tangible motiva-

tion. Each victory means a more prestigious bowl game. Kansas long ago dropped out of bowl contention. Texas Tech brought the nation’s fourth-ranked passing offense into the day against a defense that doesn’t rush the passer very well and lacks speed in the secondary, a flaw exposed during Tyler Patmon’s long, long Saturday afternoon in Lubbock.

Johnson least of Jayhawks’ worries By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

KU’S ELIJAH JOHNSON CATCHES HIS BREATH after taking a shot to the chest in Kansas’ 74-55 season-opening victory over Southeast Missouri State on Friday in Allen Fieldhouse.

Elijah Johnson had as many fouls (five) as points and assists combined (five) in Kansas University’s 74-55 season-opening victory over Southeast Missouri State on Friday night in Allen Fieldhouse. “He was just out there ... didn’t make a shot, didn’t get in the flow,” KU coach Bill Self said, without a trace of alarm, after the Las Vegas se-

nior’s debut as starting point guard at KU. “Foul trouble kept him from getting in the flow,” Self added of Johnson, who was a starting combo guard last season, running the point on occasion to spell four-year starter Tyshawn Taylor. The 6-foot-4, 195-pound Johnson hit one of five shots (0-for-4 from three) and two of two free throws while dishing one assist against no turnovers in 22 foul-plagued

minutes. He also grabbed three boards. Are the Jayhawks concerned about Johnson’s line? “Not at all,” senior center Jeff Withey said. “When he was in the game, I think he did a good job controlling the tempo. He’s still getting used to that position, being the point guard. He just needs to not foul. It’s definitely correctable.” Johnson did fulfill his leadership responsibilities admirably. He spoke to back-

up point Naadir Tharpe after picking up his fourth foul with 12:10 left and KU up by just six points. With the game’s outcome still in question, he told Tharpe to embrace the opportunity to “run the team and control it.” Tharpe responded and helped the Jayhawks re-build the lead to 13 points by the time Johnson returned to the court with 5:23 to play.

Stenhouse closing in on Nationwide title AVONDALE, ARIZ. (AP) — Ricky Stenhouse Jr. moved a big step closer toward defending his Nationwide Series championship with a strong run at Phoenix International Raceway. He also got some help from Elliott Sadler, who had a rough day start to finish. The two title contenders started Saturday tied for the championship and likely would have gone into next weekend’s finale at Homestead-Miami

Speedway locked into a tight race. But as Stenhouse battled Joey Logano and Brian Vickers for the lead headed to the white flag, Elliott Sadler imploded 10 positions behind them. Sadler was racing hard for 12th with Justin Allgaier and Cole Whitt when he triggered a three-car accident. “I just got loose. It’s hard to put this into words,� Sadler said. “It’s been a long, great season, and my guys deserve better ef-

fort from me than wrecking the car on the last lap.� The accident brought the race to a halt, and Sadler had to sit in his battered car as NASCAR cleaned the track. Once cleared, he returned to pit road for some futile repairs, but the race went on without him into overtime.

MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. — Trent Lockett said it best for everyone connected with such a potentially beautiful event that was KO’d by condensation. “I was skating on my shoes,� the Marquette University guard said Friday night. “It was so slippery, I was almost falling. It’s a shame we couldn’t play this game for what it meant, but it’s better to be safe than sorry.� So concluded the second Carrier Classic, a game of worthy intentions that was eventually sunk by bad luck and incredibly poor planning. The widely anticipated season opener between the Golden Eagles, a Sweet 16 participant from last season, and the No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes, coming off a Final Four appearance, had all you could want in a college basketball game. A magnificent setting onboard the USS Yorktown in breathtaking Charleston Harbor. A worthy cause in benefiting a number of armed forces on Veterans Day weekend. Two really good teams. But after an hour’s delay while the wet court was furiously mopped, the game was declared a no-contest before it began, in the interest of player safety. Everyone went home disappointed, save for the spirit of the event. But a condensation problem? Didn’t they see this coming? Marquette officials were concerned the game would be called off as early as Wednesday night, when dropping temperatures caused moisture to form all over the court. One member of the traveling party spent 40 minutes on the phone with Big East Conference officials Friday afternoon to reinforce the stance that the Golden Eagles would not play if it meant putting any of their players at risk. Coach Buzz Williams said he was all for moving the game indoors to The Citadel’s McAlister Field House, the rain alternative, as early as Wednesday when he learned of the court issues. Astonishingly, promotion organizer Mike Whalen said he wasn’t even in town Thursday night to make the call to move the game. The decision to go forward on the Yorktown was unwisely made. The undercard, Notre DameOhio State women, went off smoothly earlier in the afternoon. But by the time the men were ready to play at 7 p.m. EST, the temperature dropped, and moisture began to cover the court. “I did not want it on my conscience if a kid broke his leg,� Whalen said. “It was not worth it. I wasn’t going to let it happen.� True enough, but a potentially interesting game was called off when it could have been played a few miles away. Servicemen, who received free tickets, were compensated by autographs from the players. Ticket holders, who paid from $500 to $2,500 per seat, are probably out of luck. Whalen said he did not have an answer for refunds. “That’s a question for the lawyers,� he said.

CHARLIE BELJAN LINES UP A PUTT ON THE EIGHTH GREEN during the third round of the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals golf tournament Saturday in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. Beljan fired a 71 to take a two-stroke lead into the final round.

Beljan leaves hospital, keeps lead at Disney LAKE BUENA VISTA, FLA. — Charlie Beljan was in a hospital bed in the middle of the night, still wearing his golf shoes, thinking his season was over. He was about six hours from his tee time Saturday at Disney. Just 12 hours earlier, he was having a panic attack on the golf course so severe that he could barely breathe, his blood pressure spiked, and his arms felt numb. After signing his card, he was strapped into a stretcher, loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital. “I thought I literally had a chance to die,� Beljan said. In a turnaround that even by Disney’s standards seems like a fairy tale, the 28-year-old rookie now has a chance to win his first PGA Tour title. Beljan was released from the hospital, overcame two early bogeys and was solid over the final hour in the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals Classic for a 1-under 71 on Saturday that gave him a two-shot lead going into the final round. “I honestly didn’t know if I was going to play one hole, any holes or was I going to get through the day,� Beljan said. “I felt good, better as the day went on, and I just hung tough, hung in there. I knew what the rewards were at the end of the week if I could pull something off, and that’s kind of what kept me going.� The rewards were ample. This is the final PGA Tour event of the year, and Beljan is No. 139 on the money list. Only the top 125 get full cards for next year. Doctors told him he was in good enough health to be released, but perhaps not to play golf. He ignored their recommendations. “The position I’m in, it’s kind of hard not to show up,� he said before teeing off. Beljan had a pair of three-putt bogeys that cost him his three-shot lead after three holes and felt some tightening in his chest as he approached the turn, the same symptoms that caused much fear Friday. But he steadied himself, began the back nine with back-to-back birdies and kept in front. He was at 13-under 203, two shots ahead of Brian Gay (67), Josh Teater (67) and Charlie Wi, who was tied for the lead until closing with two bogeys for a 70. Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland fired a 74 on Saturday and was at 1 under, 12 shots behind Beljan.

Park leads Ochoa event GUADALAJARA, MEXICO — Inbee Park moved into position for her third victory of the year, shooting a 6-under 66 to take a two-stroke lead into the final round of the Lorena Ochoa Invitational. The South Korean player had a 15-under 201 total at Guadalajara Country Club.

Bjorn best in Singapore SINGAPORE — Denmark’s Thomas Bjorn had a one-stroke lead over England’s Chris Wood when third-round play in the rain-soaked Singapore Open was suspended because of darkness. Bjorn was 9 under overall with 15 holes left.

Klitschko retains titles HAMBURG, GERMANY — Wladimir Klitschko retained his WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles, unanimously outpointing Poland’s Mariusz Wach on Saturday night. The 6-foot-71⠄2 Wach was the tallest opponent Klitschko has faced in his 16-year professional career but offered little threat against the faster Ukrainian. The judges scored it 120-107, 120-107 and 119-109 for Klitschko, who was troubled only at the end of the fifth round, when Wach surprised him with a right hook before a flurry of punches. Klitschko left the 32-year-old Wach wobbling in the seventh with a devastating right followed by a series of combinations. Wach displayed incredible stamina to continue. The 36-year-old Klitschko improved to 59-3 (51 KOs), while Wach dropped to 27-1 (15 KOs).

Del Potro defeats Federer LONDON — Juan Martin del Potro is getting the better of Roger Federer again, in a way that no player had managed in a decade. To end the season with a title, though, he might have to get past the Swiss great again in just two days. Using his hard serve and booming forehand, Del Potro earned the last spot in the semifinals of the ATP finals Saturday by overcoming the already-qualified Federer 7-6 (3), 4-6, 6-3 in their last round-robin match. Del Potro will face Novak Djokovic in the semifinals today, before Federer takes on Andy Murray. Del Potro’s win left David Ferrer and Janko Tipsarevic with only prize money and pride to play for in their group finale as both players had been eliminated. Ferrer seemed the most sluggish at the start and lost the first four games, but the Spaniard recovered to win, 4-6, 6-3, 6-1, leaving Tipsarevic without a victory in the tournament.

No. 3 Texas edges KU in five J-W Staff Reports

The 23rd-ranked Kansas University volleyball team lost its first home match of the season, a five-set fight against No. 3 Texas on Saturday night at Horejsi Center. The Longhorns (21-3 overall, 13-0 Big 12) and Jayhawks (21-6, 9-4) came into the night as the Nos. 1 and 2 !

Junior middle blocker Caroline Jarmoc finished with 18 kills to lead the Jayhawks, who nearly doubled the number of sets the Longhorns had lost in conference play (three). “We just left some points out there and didn’t convert some of the digs that we needed to,� KU coach Ray Bechard said. “We out-dug them, we out-worked them in some areas, but at key times we just didn’t make a few of the plays we needed to make. It was a packed house, two great teams playing in a great environment and playing at a high level. We wanted a different result, but we identified some things we can do better, and that’s what we’ll do. We’ll get better.� Kansas will host Oklahoma at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Horejsi Center.

If the ongoing narrative that is the 2012 high school football season were a Hollywood script, a City Showdown sequel in the Class 6A state semifinals would have been inevitable. But Shawnee Mission West axed that surefire blockbuster by ending Lawrence High’s season Friday night in the quarterfinals. Even Free State coach Bob Lisher, whose Firebirds handled Olathe East to reach the semis, admitted a rematch with the Lions — FSHS beat LHS in the regular-season finale to win a district title — could have been intriguing. “It would’ve been exciting for the community to play Lawrence High, it would’ve been fun to play Lawrence High, but we’re happy we’re still playing and we’re playing Shawnee Mission West,� the coach said of the upcoming 7 p.m. Friday sub-state bout at Shawnee Mission South District Stadium. Considering coach Dirk Wedd’s Lions were the last to face SMW (10-1), Lisher chuckled and said “maybe� when asked if he might discuss the Vikings with the LHS coach this week in preparation. “We’ll use every resource we can get,� Lisher said. LHS finished the season 8-3, with two losses coming to SMW and one to Free State (10-1). Obviously, Wedd would love to be preparing for another city showdown, but Vikings running back Brett Sterbach and Wildcat back Andre Maloney (278 combined rushing yards, two touchdowns Friday) kept that from happening. The Lions coach said it was hard to believe the season is over.

FREE STATE’S KEITH LONEKER (20) HELPS BRING DOWN Shawnee Mission West’s Brett Sterbach during the teams’ first meeting on Sept. 7 in Overland Park. The Firebirds won, 28-14, and will face the Vikings again in the Class 6A state semifinals on Friday. “A lot of kids poured their heart and soul into something they felt like they had a shot at,� Wedd said, praising his players for reaching the second round of the playoffs for the first time since 2006. Having faced both Free State and SMW in the past three weeks, Lawrence’s coach knows plenty about the two teams vying to represent northeast Kansas in the state championship game. “They’re both physical, and that’s what jumps out at you,� Wedd said. “They both can line up and take the air out of the offensive or defensive line, whichever side of the ball they’re on. It’ll be a big battle up front. “I hope Free State wins. I think they will, because they’re so balanced. Free State will find a way to take the running game away from them, because when you’ve got (defensive ends Cody) Stanclift and (Fred) Wyatt, you can do a lot of things with those linebackers.� The Firebirds started preparing for the Vikings

on Saturday morning with video review from the previous night. Lisher had to excuse himself early in order to head west on Interstate 70 to watch his son, Michael Lisher, play on Washburn University’s offensive line in the Ichabods’ home game against Emporia State. If Free State can beat Shawnee Mission West — like it did, 28-14, in Week 2 — Lisher will bring his entire team back with him to Yager Stadium for the 6A state championship game on Nov. 24. Free State last reached the title game in 2008, when it lost to Junction City, 19-14.

KU women focus on boards for opener By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Few things please Kansas University women’s basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson more than seeing her Jayhawks devour offensive rebounds on missed shots. That’s what they did in their exhibition finale a week ago, grabbing 16 of KU’s 24 misfires to score 22 second-chance points. Henrickson wouldn’t mind seeing some guards ignite that kind of repeat performance today in the

Jayhawks’ season-opener against Idaho State — 2 p.m. tipoff at Allen Fieldhouse. KU’s tallest players — 6-foot-3 senior forward Carolyn Davis and 6-3 sophomore forward Chelsea Gardner — had three offensive boards apiece in the Jayhawks’ 88-43 exhibition rout of Fort Hays State, but their coach delighted in seeing guards CeCe Harper (three), Monica Engelman (two) and Asia Boyd (one) contribute to that offensive-glass output.

offensive boards against FHSU. “That becomes contagious when somebody starts it,” the coach said. The senior guard from San Antonio hoped to prepare the Jayhawks for future assertive play with her effort. “I’m trying to take more pride in my rebounding,” said Engelman, who secured seven boards in both KU exhibition victories after averaging 3.1 a game as a junior.

world is fully aware of the Jayhawks’ strengths, too. Earlier this week ESPNW listed Goodrich, whose 7.4 assists a game led the nation last season, and Davis among its top 25 players in the nation. KU was one of four schools — with Connecticut (three), Baylor (two) and Maryland (two) — to have at least two players on the list. Idaho State returns four starters from last season, when the Bengals finished 24-8 and, like the Jayhawks, reached the 2012 NCAA Tournament.

Wildcats take care of business, top TCU

KANSAS STATE QUARTERBACK COLLIN KLEIN (7) FINDS AN OPENING as he runs his way to score a touchdown during the third quarter against TCU on Saturday in Fort Worth, Texas. Kansas State won, 23-10. In back, KSU offensive lineman Tavon Rooks blocks TCU defensive end Jon Koontz (97).

FORT WORTH, TEXAS (AP) — Collin Klein and thirdranked Kansas State bolstered their chances in the national championship chase by doing what Alabama failed to do. The Wildcats beat one of the newcomers in their conference. Klein, the Heisman Trophy hopeful starting a week after an apparent head injury, ran for two touchdowns for No. 2 Kansas State in a 23-10 victory Saturday night at TCU, which is in its first season in the Big 12. Only a few minutes after Kansas State’s game started, and a rare Klein turnover, SEC newcomer and former Big 12 team Texas A&M finished off its 29-24 victory at Alabama, the No. 1 team in the BCS standings and AP poll. That set up the Wildcats (10-0, 7-0 Big 12) likely to take over the top spot when the new

BCS rankings come out tonight. Kansas State, 10-0 for only the second time under coach Bill Snyder, was already No. 2 in the BCS standings, one spot ahead of Oregon. The Ducks, No. 2 in the AP poll, played California later Saturday night. Klein’s third interception of the season came on only the fourth play against TCU. Freshman defensive end Devonte Fields was back in coverage when he made a diving grab for his first career pick. The Horned Frogs (6-4, 3-4) failed to take advantage by going three-andout. By time they got the ball back, they were trailing for good and on way to their third consecutive home loss, all to Big 12 teams. It is the first time since 1997 they have lost three consecutive home games in the same season.

OKLAHOMA QUARTERBACK BLAKE BELL (10) RUSHES 55 yards for a touchdown against Baylor in the fourth quarter on Saturday in Norman, Okla. Oklahoma won, 42-34.

Sooners weather Bears’ upset bid NORMAN, OKLA. (AP) — Landry Jones threw for 277 yards and two touchdowns, Damien Williams ran for 99 yards and two scores, and No. 14 Oklahoma beat Baylor, 42-34, on Saturday to move Bob Stoops into sole possession of second place on the school’s career victory list. Backup quarterback Blake Bell scored on a 55yard keeper in the fourth quarter for the longest run by a quarterback in the Stoops era. Lache Seastrunk ran for 91 yards and three touchdowns for Baylor (4-5-, 1-5 Big 12), the last score getting the Bears within eight with 1:26 to play after quarterback Nick Florence got in on the twopoint conversion. LaColtan Bester recovered the ensuing onside kick, sealing the win for Oklahoma (7-2, 5-1). Stoops moved past Bud Wilkinson with his 146th victory. He’s 11 wins shy of Barry Switzer’s school record of 157. The Sooners never fully shook free of the Bears, who had lost four

‘Horns honor Royal, dominate ISU AUSTIN, TEXAS (AP) — David Ash passed for 364 yards and two touchdowns, and No. 19 Texas honored former the memory of coach Darrell Royal by whipping Iowa State, 33-7, on Saturday. Ash had a 61-yard touchdown pass to Mike Davis in the first quarter. Johnathan Gray ran for two touchdowns for the Longhorns (8-2, 5-2 Big 12), who won their fourth in a row. Texas paid tribute during the game to Royal, who died Wednesday at age 88. Texas lined up in the wishbone, the formation Royal introduced to college football in 1968, on the Longhorn’s first play. Instead of a run, Texas ran a trick play that resulted in a 47-yard pass. Steele Jantz passed for 133 yards and a touchdown for the Cyclones (5-5, 2-5) but was under constant

pressure from the Texas pass rush. Ash had his second stellar game after getting pulled late in Texas’ 2117 win over Kansas two weeks ago. Against Iowa State, he rarely had to throw into coverage because Longhorns wide receivers seemed to get wide open on almost every play. Jaxon Shipley had eight catches for 137 yards and Davis had seven for 113. Royal coached Texas to national championships in 1963 and 1969, a share of a third in 1970, and won 11 Southwest Conference titles. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1983. Flags flew at half-staff inside the stadium that bears his name and Royals’ “DKR” initials were on burntorange logos at midfield and on the Texas players’ helmets.

in a row prior to last week’s win against lastplace Kansas. Bell provided some breathing room with his big run out of the “Belldozer” short-yardage package — the longest for an Oklahoma quarterback since Patrick Fletcher in 1998 — that made it 42-26 with 14:14 remaining. The Bears, who entered the game with the nation’s top overall offense and top passing attack, piled up 252 yards on the

ground and became the fourth Sooners opponent to surpass 200 yards rushing. Florence had 83 yards and a score, to go with 172 yards on 12-for-33 passing with no interceptions, and Glasco Martin ran for 60 yards. Baylor had a chance to tie it midway through the third quarter, after Seastrunk stretched the ball over the goal line on a 2-yard touchdown run to make it 28-26. But the Sooners snuffed out

Jarred Salubi’s try for the tying two-point conversion on an option pitch from Levi Norwood, who got the ball on a jet sweep handoff from Florence. Jones then led Oklahoma on a 12-play, 75-yard drive that Damien Williams finished off with a 17-yard touchdown run right up the middle. The Sooners’ defense stiffened after that, forcing a threeand-out that set up Bell’s insurance run. Oklahoma won for the 21st time in 22 meetings in the series — with the only loss coming last year when eventual Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III led the Bears to a 45-38 victory at home while amassing the most yards ever by a Sooners opponent (616). Oklahoma’s defense was up to the task better this time. Terrance Williams, the nation’s top receiver, had six catches for 91 yards — but that was 76 below his average. Florence also had a season low in passing yardage, getting held to 127 yards fewer than any other game this season.

NOTEBOOK

Weis changes travel plan By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

LUBBOCK, TEXAS — With life on the road being awfully unkind to Kansas University’s football program during the past few seasons, KU coach Charlie Weis altered KU’s travel plans this week in hopes of fielding a more focused football team during Saturday’s game against Texas Tech. Rather than bringing 70 players, which is the maximum number allowed by the Big 12 Conference, Weis trimmed KU’s travel list to 54 on Saturday. Most of the guys who missed the trip were younger guys who probably would not have played anyway. However, there were a couple of regulars who were left in Lawrence, most Tuberville on incident Midway through notable among them being

third quarter, with Tech leading KU, 21-17, television cameras caught Texas Tech coach Tommy Tuberville engaging in an altercation with an assistant coach on the sideline in which Tuberville appeared to strike the coach with his left hand, knocking off his hat and headset. After the game, Tuberville explained what went down. “Oh, I reached and grabbed him,” Tech’s third-year head coach said. “He was on the field, and I reached to grab him to pull him off. It wasn’t anything to it. It was just one of those deals where I missed his shoulder and ended up grabbing the microphone on his headset and pulled it off.”

fans and analysts seem to enjoy speculating on whether a coach will or will not go for two after a score. Although KU took the lead by scoring first in the initial overtime, Weis said rolling the dice at that point was not right. His mind changed quickly, however, when KU found itself driving for a catch-up touchdown in the second OT. “I was going for two if we scored there,” Weis said of KU’s possession in the second OT. “I told the defensive coaches, ‘This is gonna be it either way. Because if we score, we’re going to try to end this right now.’” It never happened, of course, as KU’s final drive stalled when a Michael CumWeis would’ve gone for it mings pass to the end zone Whenever overtime games on fourth down was batted the occur in college football, down.

junior wide receiver Christian Matthews and red-shirt freshman offensive lineman Damon Martin, who during recent weeks had elevated himself to starter status at left guard. Although Weis’ change of plans did not change the outcome — KU fell, 41-34 in double overtime — KU’s first-year coach seemed pleased with the effort put forth by the 54 players who made the trip south for KU’s second-to-last road game. “This was about going on the road with guys that really, really care,” Weis said. “It’s important to them. I’ll take that group of guys that played today and give us a chance whenever we’re playing.”

KANSAS RUNNING BACK JAMES SIMS (29) GETS A HUG from Texas Tech receiver Darrin Moore following Saturday’s game. time and struggled to regain his form because of an elbow injury, ripped off runs of 49 and 69 yards while averaging 12.6 yards per carry. “It felt good because coach Weis had been calling me out all week saying I’ve been missing the action for a whole month because of my elbow,” Pierson said. “So I just came out today with a different mind-set and just worried about playing football.” It worked. Pierson was excellent out of KU’s option package, and he also darted to the outside on routine handoffs, making life miserable for a Texas Tech defense that came in ranked 18th in total defense. “When they call an outside run, my eyes light up because that’s my specialty,” Pierson said. While the offense rolled even without the threat of a passing game, KU’s defense came up with stops at crucial times to keep the Jayhawks in it. A Ryan Bustin field goal with 28 seconds to play in the third quarter gave Tech a 24-17 lead, and, despite reaching the KU 10-yard line on their next drive, the Red Raiders settled for another field goal early in the fourth to push their lead to 27-17. Down by two scores for the first time since early in the second quarter, KU responded with a three-play TD drive, sparked by Pierson’s 69-yard sprint up the middle that Sims capped with a three-yard TD run after Pierson was caught from behind for the first time in his life. “That was kind of new

to me,” he said shaking his head. “I should’ve never said never.” The dubious first for Pierson did nothing to hurt KU’s momentum. Trailing by just three, KU’s defense held Stephens to a one-yard gain on a fourth and two from the Kansas 12-yard line, and that allowed Cummings to lead a game-tying drive. Cummings’ 44-yard gain off of an option keeper on fourth and four set up Nick Prolago’s 32-yard field goal that forced overtime. That set the stage for the double-overtime heartbreaker, in which KU momentarily led. After Tech gutted out back-to-back touchdown drives to reclaim the lead, KU’s final chance went awry when TTU’s defense finally got a stop in the run game. On third and five, Pierson lost four yards on an option pitch to the short side, setting up a desperation fourth and nine with the game on the line. Weis said he liked the play call, but noted that the protection broke down, forcing Cummings to throw early. The ball was batted away from freshman Tre’ Parmalee in the end zone, and KU (1-9, 0-7) was called for an illegal shift at the same time, adding another defeat onto KU’s painful stretch of 19 straight conference losses. “Look, am I disappointed we lost?” Weis asked. “You betcha. Are they disappointed? You betcha. But at the end of the day, our team played like a legitimate team trying to gut it out through a complete four quarters.”

First Quarter 11:40 — Jakeem Grant 9 pass from Seth Doege. Ryan Bustin kick. After receiving the opening kickoff, Doege ripped off six straight completions. The game’s first scoring drive covered 75 yards in 11 plays and 3:20. (TTU 7, KU 0). 7:48 — James Sims 6 run. Nick Prolago kick. KU answered Tech’s opening drive of nearly all passes with a drive of all runs. Sims carried six times for 48 yards, and Tony Pierson added a key 13-yard pick-up on third down. The drive covered 63 yards in eight plays and 3:52. (TTU 7, KU 7). Second Quarter 14:55 — Tyson Williams 16 pass from Doege. Bustin kick. Tech broke through for another touchdown when Doege found Williams standing in the back of the end zone. As he waited for the ball to come to him, KU’s Tyler Patmon stood with his back to the play and did nothing as the ball landed in Williams’ arms. (TTU 14, KU 7). 12:20 — Darrin Moore 6 pass from Doege. Bustin kick. Three more plays, three more passes for Texas Tech. (TTU 21, KU 7). 5:30 — Brandon Bourbon 10 pass from Michael Cummings. Prolago kick. An interception by Bradley McDougald set the Jayhawks up at the Tech 39-yard line. Five plays later, Cummings hit Bourbon in the flat on a rollout. (TTU 21, KU 14). 0:03 — Nick Prolago 22 field goal. KU’s defense held strong again, and the offense responded with an 11-play, 74-yard drive that took 3:41. (TTU 21, KU 17). Third Quarter 0:28 — Ryan Bustin 29 field goal. Despite giving up points on Texas Tech’s final drive of the third quarter, the KU defense did just enough to stay in it, holding the Red Raiders to a field goal after facing first and goal at the eight yard line. The key play on the drive was a 29-yard wide-receiver pass from Austin Zouzalik to Doege. Doege appeared to fumble on the play, but the review showed his knee was down before the ball came out. (TTU 24, KU 17). Fourth Quarter 10:12 — Bustin 27 field goal. The Red Raiders opened up a two-score lead with a 12-play, 59-yard drive that took 3:45 but again fell short of the end zone. (TTU 27, KU 17). 8:59 — James Sims 3 run. Prolago kick. KU responded to its first double-digit deficit since the first quarter with a threeplay, 72-yard scoring drive that featured a 69-yard sprint from Pierson on the first play of the drive. Earlier in the day, Pierson ripped off a 49-yard run. (TTU 27, KU 24). 0:41 — Prolago 32 field goal. After stopping the Red Raiders on a fourth-and-three inside the red zone, KU’s offense tied the game with a nine-play, 75-yard march that took 4:11 and featured a fourth-down run from Cummings that picked up 44 yards and set up the game-tying kick. (TTU 27, KU 27). Overtime 15:00 — Sims 5 pass from Cummings. Prolago kick. After Texas Tech’s attempt at a game-winning field goal in regulation sailed wide, the Jayhawks struck first in overtime. Pierson set up the score with an 18-yard option run. (KU 34, TTU 27). 15:00 — Eric Stephens 1 run. Bustin kick. KU forced the Red Raiders into a third-and-long situation on their first drive, but Doege hit Eric Stephens with a 24-yard pass to the one-yard line to set up Stephens’ TD run on the direct snap. (KU 34, TTU 34). Second Overtime 15:00 — Moore 3 pass from Stephens. Bustin kick. Tech got the first crack at points in the second overtime and marched to a touchdown in four plays. Stephens again took the direct snap and, after faking the run, flipped a pass over the top of the defense to Moore. (TTU 41, KU 34).

“That was the difference in the ballgame.� Leading 41-34 in the second overtime, Texas Tech shifted a linebacker out wide to give him better positioning for a potential pitch to KU running back Tony Pierson. The move worked, as Pierson was dropped for a four-yard loss on a critical third and five. “We never really stopped the option play other than right there at the end,� Texas Tech coach Tommy Tuberville said. “We stopped it one time.� Kaufman left impressed by KU’s offensive linemen. “Their center (Trevor Marrongelli), left guard (Duane Zlatnik) and left tackle (Tanner Hawkinson) do a really good job. I thought those were three of the best offensive linemen we’ve seen going into the game,� Kaufman said. “That’s where they kept attacking us at was behind those guys.� KU finished with 390 rushing yards, which was the most ever for the Jayhawks in a Big 12 game. “They were creasing us, and the option game ... we weren’t picking up the pitch man,� TTU defensive tackle Kerry Hyder said. “The quarterback (Michael Cummings) was finding the seams when they did pitch it. That was the biggest part. They found some natural gaps and were able to hit the gaps for big runs.� Pierson also had a career day, rushing 16 times for 202 yards. “When he gets out loose,� Kaufman said, “he’s hard to get hold of.�

How former Jayhawks fared

Sunday, November 11, 2012

16-time champion franchise seems probable as long as Jackson decides he’s up to another stint in the prestigious job with a team that won five titles and reached seven NBA finals in his 11 seasons on its bench. “Knowing him the way I do, I think it’s really just a matter of health, if he feels physically up to doing it,” Bryant said Friday night. “He’s a perfectionist. We all know he’s a perfectionist. If he feels like he can come in here and give what he demands from himself, then I think he would be interested.” After several chants of “We want Phil!” broke out in the Staples Center crowd on Friday night, the Lakers had the day off Saturday. Jackson walked away from the Lakers in 2011, eager to improve his health by avoiding the

constant grind of NBA travel. The former Knicks forward spent nine seasons on the Chicago Bulls’ bench, winning six titles with Michael Jordan before moving to the Lakers in 1999. Jackson left the Lakers in 2004 after the club lost to Detroit in the NBA finals, but he returned for a second stint after Rudy Tomjanovich and Frank Hamblen led Los Angeles to a 34-48 record in his one-year absence. After a rough start to his second stint, the Lakers reached three NBA finals and won two titles after acquiring Pau Gasol. They fell short of Jackson’s fourth three-peat when they lost to eventual champion Dallas in the second round of the 2011 playoffs. Jackson followed through on his promise to leave the club, which

didn’t acknowledge his departure with a news conference or any ceremony. “The one thing that’s kind of always bothered me is that his last year, I wasn’t able to give him my normal self because I was playing on one leg,” said Bryant, who had knee problems throughout the season. “That’s always kind of eaten away at me, that the last year of his career, I wasn’t able to give him everything I had.” If Jackson isn’t looking forward to travel, he could return at a good time. Los Angeles began a six-game homestand Friday night, and will host San Antonio on Tuesday night. Bryant vocally backed Brown’s work over the past two seasons, including his decision to install a new offense that didn’t click immediately with Howard or Steve Nash.

MISSOURI’S KEION BELL, RIGHT, KNOCKS THE BALL AWAY from Southern Illinois-Edwardsville’s Maurice Wiltz during the first half Saturday in Columbia, Mo. MU won, 83-69.

TOP 25 ROUNDUP

No. 15 Missouri 83, SIU Edwardsville 69 COLUMBIA, MO. — While rehabbing all last season from a knee injury, Laurence Bowers was able to do a lot of shooting. The 6-foot-8 forward showed off his increased range in No. 15 Missouri’s 83-69 season-opening victory over Southern Illinois-Edwardsville on Saturday, hitting a pair of three-pointers and finishing with 20 points and seven rebounds. The season before he was hurt, Bowers attempted just eight three-pointers — and missed them all. “I was shooting a ton when I was hurt, so it’s paying off,” Bowers said. “I’ve just got to continue to stay after practice and work out.” Coach Frank Haith pointed out that Bowers was on the line or just inside it on two other jumpers while going 9 for 14 overall. “That’s what we challenged him to do, make his game more well-rounded,” Haith said. “Laurence, he was excited for Midnight Madness. I think he’s just glad to be back, and guys, he’s going to get better and better.” Bowers outscored the Cougars 10-2 by himself during a two-minute stretch early in the second half for the Tigers, who are ranked to start the season for a third straight year. Not much later, he dazzled with a tomahawk dunk. “It felt good,” Bowers said. “That’s the first time I’ve dunked in a game in a long time.” Phil Pressey scored 13 of his 19 points in the first half and had nine assists with just two turnovers. Alex Oriakhi, part of a strong transfer class, had 15 rebounds, eight points and three blocked shots. “Those guys, they’re good,” SIU Edwardsville coach Lennox Forrester said. “Pressey, he’s an incredible guard. I thought that at times when they struggled for points, he just took over.” Jerome Jones hit five three-pointers and scored 17 points for SIU Edwardsville, which was held to 33 percent shooting. Reserve Michael Messer added 13 points but Mark Yelovich, the Cougars’ top returning scorer, was held scoreless on 0-for-5 shooting with four fouls. “There were segments in there where we kind of got rattled a little bit and lost our composure,” Forrester said. “It’s one of those games where you never know what to expect from your players.” Missouri won its 66th

in a row at home against nonconference opponents since the end of the 200506 season without guard Michael Dixon, who is suspended for violating team rules. Dixon, perhaps the best sixth man in the nation for last season’s 30-win team, also did not dress in both exhibitions.

Students excited to perform at Kauffman Center ——

KU symphony, choir to take stage in K.C. for scholarship concert By Meagan Thomas mthomas@ljworld.com

About 275 Kansas University School of Music students will play instruments and sing Tuesday in Helzberg Hall at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts in Kansas City, Mo. The students are members of KU’s Symphony Orchestra and Symphonic Choir, and will be performing for the third annual KU School of Music Scholarship Concert. KU sophomore Katie McKeirnan, a clarinet player in the Symphony Orchestra, has previously performed at the Kauffman Center twice and is eager to return to the stage. “The acoustics in the Kauffman Center are impeccable,” McKeirnan says. “Whenever we go in there, we can actually hear all across the orchestra, and sometimes you’re able to hear parts you’ve never heard before.” The acoustics and clear sound aren’t the only benefits of playing at the center. The stage at the Kauffman Center is closer to the audience than it is at the Lied Center, which is something McKeirnan says makes the performance more enjoyable. “You’re not miles and miles away from your audience,” she says. The audience size at the Kauffman Center is also larger than at the Lied Center, with about 1,500 seats. “It’s just so much work (preparing) and we believe in the music that we play, and the more people we can reach in the venue, that helps bring out the most from our hard work,” says David Neely, director of orchestral activities. “And that’s just a very special experience.” Neely says it’s an honor for the students to be able Please see CONCERT, page 4C

arry Swinson, a slight, 75-yearold retiree, regularly slides into church pews at Lansing Correctional Facility between much burlier, blue-uniformed men with more tattoos and less singing experience. The Lawrence resident has been volunteering five years for the East Hill Singers prison chorus, where having a guy in the mix who once carried tunes in barbershop quartets can only help when it comes to staying on key.

Perhaps his most disquieting moment happened a few years ago at the finale of an off-prison performance when, as audience members smiled and clapped, an inmate standing next to Swinson leaned over and whispered a confession. “He had tears in his eyes,” Swinson says. “He said, ‘Nobody ever applauded for me before.’ It brought tears to my eyes, too.” That memory stuck with

was thrilled earlier this year when the sixscreen AMC Mainstreet Theater (1400 Main, Kansas City, Mo.) was purchased by the Austin, Texas.-based Alamo Drafthouse Cinema. In addition to showing cool movies and offering food and adult beverages, Alamo Drafthouse is known for its strict policies on things that make noise — conversations, cellphones and children. But rules are made to be broken, which is why Alamo Drafthouse hosts regular quote-alongs of comedies and cult classics. A quote-along, for those who aren’t familiar, is an interactive movie screening at which the audience is actually encouraged to recite all of the lines they know by heart. The words are even splashed on the screen, karaoke style. This week, those lines will include “This aggression will not stand, man!� and “You’re my boy, Blue!� At 7:45 p.m. Monday, sip on $5 White Russians between your favorite scenes of “The Big Lebowski,� the 1998 cult-favorite from the Coen brothers. (Note: By the time I found my jelly sandals, this event had sold out. “Life does not stop and start at your convenience, you miserable piece of [stuff].� Showings on Tuesday and Wednesday also sold out. Relax, man; you can still sip on White Russians in the Alamo Drafthouse bar, The Chesterfield, and complain about what the nihilists did to your rug.) On Saturday, quote your heart out to “Old School.� This 2003 Todd Phillips comedy about three dudes’ pathetic yet hilarious attempt at reliving their frat days is one of the few movies that repeatedly causes me to laugh so hard I cry. Tickets for the 10 p.m. screening are $12 in advance and are available at drafthouse.com. Streaking and spandex are not required, but make sure you have some cash for the keg.

Dropkick Murphys at The Uptown Theater While I am very good at consuming copious amounts of corned beef and Jameson, and I dye my hair red, I’ve recently come to the conclusion that deep down, I must be a self-loathing Irish lass. I always turn off NPR when The Thistle & Shamrock (a Celtic music show) comes on, and I refuse to leave my house on St. Patrick’s Day. Still, I know plenty of perfectly nice people my age who puke green beer every March and play Dropkick Murphys CDs whenever the mood strikes them. If you are one of them, instead of judging you, I’m going to encourage you. Catch the sometimes kilt-clad Massachusetts punk rockers Thursday at The Uptown Theater (3700 Broadway, Kansas City, Mo.). Doors are at 6:30 p.m. and The Mahones open at 7:30 p.m. General admission tickets for this all-ages show are $35.45 and are available at ticketmaster.com or at The Uptown Theater box office.

The Wallflowers at The Midland Now it’s your turn to judge me: I had a huge crush on Jakob Dylan, The Wallflowers frontman, before I ever knew anything about his dad. I’ve since had an education in the song-and-dance man. Literally. I took two Bob Dylan classes, for actual credits, in college.

SCENE STEALERS

‘Skyfall’: To Bond or not to Bond T

he media blitz for the 50th Anniversary of British superspy James Bond has been deafening. On the market just in time for the new movie, there’s a comprehensive Blu-ray box set of the first 22 Bond flicks, a 600-page coffee-table book, a twoCD set of Bond theme songs, new commemorative posters, and even a $4,000 luxury watch. Besides the recent “60 Minutes� feature, there’s been countless stories in the media about Bond’s history and his triumphant 2012 return. It’s a lot of hype for “Skyfall,� Daniel Craig’s third outing as James Bond, to live up to. Mostly, the film is up to the task. “Skyfall� doesn’t reach the emotional depths of 2006’s “Casino Royale,� but it features jaw-dropping cinematography and set design, and some of the most exciting action scenes of the entire series. James Bond has never been a series known for its emotional complexity. Rather, Bond movies are known for their high style, veneer of cool, exotic locations, seductive women, over-the-top villains and high-octane action sequences. “Skyfall� has that in spades, so on that level, it’s right up there with the best. From a suspenseful plot standpoint, though, it’s pretty routine. Bond’s boss M — played again by Judi Dench — makes tough choices that put her in the sights of an effeminate former MI6 agentturned-terrorist played in traditional campy fashion by Javier Bardem, who is having a ball. The personal relationship between Bond and M is the most significant in the film, and “Skyfall� revolves around two themes that test them both: the true definition of loyalty to country and knowing when to retire. At two-and-a-half hours, “Skyfall� gets a bit long, especially when it settles in and eventually becomes a straight-up cat-andmouse revenge plot. But the surface-value thrills are pretty extraordinary, and the parallels between M and Bond form a strong thematic core.

‘Arbitrage’ and ‘Liberal Arts’ open “It’s not about the money,� says one-time felon Jimmy Grant to rich hedge-fund manager Robert Miller.

DANIEL CRAIG STARS AS JAMES BOND IN “SKYFALL,� the 23rd film in the Bond franchise that opened this weekend.

ERIC MELIN eric@scene-stealers.com

Miller’s response: “What else is there?â€? Opening at Liberty Hall this weekend is “Arbitrage,â€? a compelling new drama starring Richard Gere as a billionaire who’s trying to juggle multiple balls in the air as long as he can before they come crashing down on him. He’s covering up a huge investment loss, harboring a mistress and routinely lying to his family about everything under the sun. Things get worse for him from there. Gere has just the right balance of smooth calm and genuine panic in a performance that just may eke out a Best Actor nomination come Oscar time, despite the relatively low profile of the film. The supporting cast of Susan Sarandon, Tim Roth and Brit Marling are uniformly excellent, and “Arbitrageâ€? skillfully keeps the audience guessing, while organically pointing out all of the advantages that the Ăźberrich have to keep themselves out of trouble. Also at Liberty Hall this week is “Liberal Arts,â€? a romantic comedy/drama written and directed by Josh Radnor from TV’s “How I Met Your Mother.â€? It’s another movie about an aimless, self-centered thirtysomething guy

who wants to sow some more wild oats before it’s too late, but at least Radnor’s character in “Liberal Arts� has a severe guilt complex about it. Elizabeth Olsen (so good last year in “Martha Marcy May Marlene�) is the immature 19-year-old college student he falls for, and while Olsen’s looks make it easy to see why, no real bond or fireworks develop between the two actors. Richard Jenkins appears briefly as an older professor not yet ready to retire, and while his story

Swinson and helps inspire him to keep working with the East Hill Singers. The chorus of minimum-security inmates, organized through the Arts in Prison program, leaves the prison to perform four times a year, and their last performance of this year will be today at First United Methodist Church in Lawrence. The last time the East Hill Singers came to Lawrence, several years ago at a different church, it was standing room only. Sara Wentz, the First United Methodist’s director of worship and music, says church members plan to provide a postconcert dinner for the inmates and look forward to opening their sanctuary for the program. “It’s such a unique opportunity for us to have them here, and it allows us to use our space for a great musical opportunity,� Wentz says. Matthew Edwards, 34, an inmate from Lawrence, has written and called numerous relatives and friends about the performance, and he’s hoping they’ll be in the audience today. “I should have quite a few people there,� he says, his eyes lighting up. “It’s an opportunity for me to come to them.�

The idea that was most popular was a concert featuring the works of Leonard Bernstein, which is what the musicians will perform Tuesday. Bernstein was the first great American orchestra conductor who was

recognized on an international level, Neely says, and many of his works are staples of the American repertoire. He was also one of the last conductor-composers in history, because conducting became too complex to continue to do both. The all-Bernstein program will include “Overture to Candide,� “Chichester Psalms,� “Three Meditations from Mass� and “Symphonic Dances from West Side Story.� “He was a genius, and that’s what we’re celebrating,� Neely says.

TOWN TALK RESTAURANT ROUNDUP

Milton’s set to close; new Italian restaurant downtown I ’ve received official word that Milton’s, one of Lawrence’s favorite flapjack and breakfast spots, is set to close for good later this month. Owner David Lewis confirmed Friday that the last day of business for the restaurant/coffee house at 920 Massachusetts St. likely will be Nov. 18. “It is a really odd deal,� Lewis said. “We know a lot of people are going to be really disappointed. It is pretty emotional for us.� Lewis said he planned to release more details about the pending closure in the next few days. As we previously have reported, however, Lewis is remaining in the restaurant business. Lewis has signed on to be a partner in a new restaurant in the 901 Building, the multistory apartment/office building at the southwest corner of Ninth and New Hampshire. Lawrence marketing executive Billy Pilgrim and Lawrence chef Sula Teller also are partners in that project. Lewis said that restaurant — its name hasn’t been publicly released yet — is scheduled to open the

week after Thanksgiving. Lewis told me that his original intention was to operate both Milton’s and the new restaurant in the 901 Building. But something somehow has caused that to change. He said people who believe Milton’s simply will be picking up its menu and traditions and moving them to the 901 Building aren’t correct. As we reported back in September, the new restaurant is slated to serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. The business also is slated to be open until 11 p.m. and serve wine, craft beers and other spirits. Lewis reminded me that sort of was the formula for Milton’s when it first opened years ago. “The new place will be a dream come true for me,� Lewis said. “I really can’t describe how

excited I am about it.� Lewis said he had discussions with several people about carrying on the Milton’s name and menu, but none of those deals came to fruition for various reasons. Lewis confirmed the closure has nothing to do with a drop in business. That appears evident. I think most patrons of Lawrence’s restaurant scene would agree that Milton’s is probably the busiest breakfast restaurant in the city. Lewis leases the building, and he said he wasn’t certain whether the landlord has another business lined up to go into the spot. According to ownership records at the Douglas County Courthouse, the building is owned by Terra Firma LTD. According to business records from the Kansas Secretary of State’s office, the company is led by Michael Nelson, a businessman from Alma. I expect the closing of Milton’s will create some ripple effects in the downtown restaurant scene. I already have seen a sign advertising that Cielito Lindo, the Mexican restaurant at 815 New Hampshire St., will start

Intorno Italian restaurant, 801 Massachusetts St., for lunch and dinner. As we reported late last month, Intorno is going into the spot where Esquina previously was located. Work began only at the beginning of the month to convert the restaurant, and the Intorno folks seemed to pull it off in a few days.

my porch proves. (Note to the Intorno folks: Take no offense. Jokes about Missourians are required in Lawrence.) But the menu does seem to have quite a bit more seafood on it than you might normally expect at area Italian restaurants. By my count, there are at least 10 fish or seafood dishes on the menu, including Maryland-style crab cakes, seafood risotto, calamari-style squid, and the classic dish of linguini and clams. The menu also includes a couple of steak dishes and wood-fired entrees such as a grilled pizza or shrimp scampi. Of course, there are also the traditional Italian favorites like chicken parmigiana and lasagna. It looks like entrees on the dinner menu (I haven’t seen a lunch menu) range in price from about $12.95 to $24 for an Italian-style tenderloin. Pasta dishes go as high as $15.95 to $9.95 for spaghetti bolognese. — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362. Follow him at Twitter. com/clawhorn_ljw.

Temime dressed “Skyfall� co-stars Naomie Harris and Berenice Marlohe in styles worthy of their predecessors, such as Halle Berry and Ursula Andress, who both wore bikinis with holsters, and Barbara Bach, whose thigh-high slit gowns were really up to there. For Marlohe, Temime envisioned an Ava Gardner type. She required two knockout gowns, one a second-skin L’Wren Scott number that Marlohe had to be sewn into each morning and the other a red, slinky Donna Karan. “When you think of the iconic Bond girl, you think sexy, smart, strong — and, of course, a killer body,� Karan says. Harris needed high-action clothes and ends up in a Belstaff jacket, tank top and leather trousers.

SUMAC CHICKEN

In Kansas, sumac is best known by most as a weed that grows in ditches and fields, with leaves that turn bright red in the fall. In the Middle East, dried and ground berries of the sumac plant are used to make a citrusy, slightly earthy spice used for flavoring — and adding a pretty, purple-red color — in many dishes. In this entree, tender marinated chicken is sauteed with onions and flavored with sumac, then heaped on a platter with grilled veggies and saffron rice. Where to get it: Aladdin Cafe, 1021 Massachusetts St. What you’ll pay: $10.99 plus tax for the entree, which comes with your choice of Greek salad or lentil soup.

Try it with: Pita bread with hummus or baba ghanouj for an appetizer, kunafa (an Arab cheese pastry) or baklava for dessert. Also on the menu: Shish kabobs of all kinds, from lamb to seafood; Middle Eastern appetizers such as Halum cheese and dolma (stuffed grape leaves); more than 10 vegetarian entrees and sandwiches; and hookah — which you can smoke in a lounge attached to the restaurant.

Moore’s book “Bond on Bond� was published last month (Lyons Press), and it devotes a chapter to 007’s dapper style. Sean Connery, who played Bond first in 1962, favored skinny-lapel gray suits that hold up well over time. The same cannot be said of the terry cloth romper he wore on the set of “Goldfinger.� Pierce Brosnan wore a British Royal Navy uniform for the role, and most Bonds don a swimsuit at some point. Athletic and sporty clothes actually pose a bit of a problem, Temime says, because they don’t look as sexy as Bond should. Generally, though, Bond has a fairly restrained style because he doesn’t want to draw too much attention to himself.

Moore quotes Bond author Ian Fleming in “The Man With the Golden Gun,� where the clothes were described as “darkblue single-breasted suit, white shirt, thin black knitted silk tie, and black casuals as his ‘usual rig.’� That look came easily for the Savile Row tailors in London where Bond probably would have purchased his clothes. By the time Brosnan took over the role in 1995, the Italian fashion house Brioni was making the suits, explains Angelo Petrucci, the label’s master tailor, although they were done in the English style with longer jackets and higher rises instead of the Roman style, which would have more tapered legs and shorter rises. “For me, James Bond is representative of class,� Petrucci says. Bond wears so many suits, he muses, because he likes power, and that’s what men so often feel in a made-tomeasure trouser and jacket. “The suit can give you confidence, and James

NEW YORK — If he’s particular enough to like his martini shaken not stirred, James Bond probably likes his trousers trim not tight. Same goes for the tuxedo that’s formal and not fussy, and any sweater in his closet surely is cashmere and perfectly casual and cool. Although the superspy first appeared on-screen 50 years ago, he never wants to look out-of-date. Costume designer Jany Temime says her mantra for the wardrobe of the latest Bond film, “Skyfall,� which opened Friday, was “iconic for 2012.� It’s like she was shopping for people she knows — even if they are fictional characters — instead of creating a wardrobe for a movie, she explains. “I didn’t follow fashion, I followed the script. But I know these characters, and I know what he or she would wear and why. I really tried to ask, ‘What would that character really buy?’� Temime said. Suits, lots of them, and most by Tom Ford, were high on the list for Daniel Craig, who is taking his third turn as Bond and is known to favor Ford’s clothing both on-screen as Bond and in his personal life. “In my first meeting with Daniel, he told me what he wanted: He wanted slim-fitting clothing that was easy to move (in), but I also got the feeling he wanted a slightly ’60s look,� Temime says. Roger Moore, who played Bond in seven films through the 1970s and ’80s, says some of his flared trousers and widecollared shirts wouldn’t cut it today, but some of the suits, and especially the tuxedos and dinner jackets, probably would. Unfortunately, he isn’t

wearing them now. “Those outfits were made 20 or 30 years ago, and waistlines change. I did, at the time, enjoy the wardrobe, but I also developed a taste for the good food and wine Bond liked,� Moore says with a laugh.

Review: McEwan’s latest a fiction about fiction

By Ann Levin Associated Press

Ian McEwan’s latest novel, “Sweet Tooth,” is a curious hybrid: part spy novel, part romance, it’s really a work of fiction about fiction. The central character Charles Doemland, is Serena Frome, a Cambus driver, bridge student recruited Lawrence “Command Decision’ (by for Britain’s domestic spy agency in 1972 by a profesElizabeth Moon). It’s a science fiction adventure sor and old MI5 hand. After their brief affair, story.” she joins the intelligence service, taking her place among the ranks of similarly well-born young women doing glorified secretarial work. There she is tapped for a mission with the code name Sweet Tooth to secretly funnel money to up-and-coming writers and intellectuals thought to hold a dim view of the Soviet Union. Matt Falkenstien, Her qualifications are works at Cottin’s her “rather gorgeous” Hardware, looks and reputation as Lawrence a voracious reader — “‘A People’s History of the “rather well up on modern United States’ (by Howard writing — literature, novZinn). So far it’s good. I’m a els, that sort of thing,” her history major and I like the boss says. way he writes.” But almost immediately she jeopardizes her career by falling in love with Tom Haley, the writer she’s meant to covertly enlist in MI5’s epic battle against communism.

McEwan bases the espionage plot on actual events during the Cold War, when the CIA surreptitiously funded various cultural enterprises to bolster support for the West. His spy craft is compelling, his love story less so. Serena has the emotional maturity of a teenager and the politics of her parents’ generation. She fancies herself a character out of Jane Austen in a world that’s moved on to Borges, Barth and Pynchon. “I craved a form of naive realism,” she declares. “I wasn’t impressed by those writers who infiltrated their own pages as part of the cast, determined to remind the poor reader that all the characters and even they themselves were pure inventions.” Her oft-repeated literary opinions — “I was a simple sort of reader,” she says later on — suggest that one of her primary roles is as a foil for Tom, who has more sophisticated taste. And indeed, the novel is packed with the postmodern tricks Serena professes to hate. McEwan embeds narratives within narratives (bequeathing one of his own abandoned novels to Tom), undermines his narrator and injects reallife people and events into

You also will find abundant evidence of its aut h o r ’ s Vonnegut grace and generosity toward others; in particular, victims of disease, financial hardship, neglect and censorship. And you will find prowling the edges of these congenial, whimsical and often insightful missives much of the sadness and tribulation that seeped into Vonnegut’s life, whether as traumatized World War II veteran, struggling freelancer, stressed-out family guy, earnest writing instructor or international literary idol. “Anyone who imagines a writer’s life has ever been easy—even one who eventually achieves fame and fortune—will be disabused of that fantasy after reading these letters,” writes the book’s editor, Dan Wakefield. “And they will be inspired.” Those last four words may mildly surprise readers who insist on seeing Vonnegut solely as the sullen grouch whose despair over humanity’s survival can be traced through such black-comedic novels as “Cat’s Cradle,” “Mother

True story: I once made Kurt Vonnegut laugh by telling him a joke. It wasn’t an original or especially noteworthy joke. It was a riddle prompted by what, in 2001, was one of the New York Mets’ moreerror-ridden-than-usual losing streaks. “What,” I asked him (and, to repeat, this was some time ago), “do Michael Jackson and this year’s Mets have in common?” Beat, beat, then the answer: “They all wear one glove for no explicable reason.” See what I mean? Still, Vonnegut laughed. And a genuine laugh from VonAlison Adkins, negut was no mere staccastudent, to burst.

‘Letters’ an insightful look at Vonnegut By Gene Seymour

BESTSELLERS

Night,” “The Sirens of Titan,” “Galapagos,” “Hocus Pocus” and his masterwork about the Allied firebombing of “Dresden, “Slaughterhouse-Five.” The bedrock for his body of work can be found in the letter he wrote to his family in May 1945, recounting in plain yet vivid detail the horrors he experienced before, during and after the firebombing three months earlier. One detail of his experiences as a POW is as chilling as a bad-news telegram: “They beat me up a little. I was fired as group leader. Beatings were very small time: — One (American) boy starved to death and the SS Troops shot two for stealing food.” Who could blame anyone for being a lifelong pessimist ever after? Yet for Vonnegut, as it has been for generations of artists, writing offered the best of all possible releases from dread, however much he may have despaired through the 1950s and early 1960s that he could feed and raise a growing family solely on the slick-magazine market. At one point, he sells Saabs on Cape Cod; at another, he’s hoping to sell somebody an idea for a children’s board game. All the while, he tries, as he puts it in a letter to his agent, “to bring my mediocrity before the pub-

lic.” At the depths of his wilderness years, he’s so discouraged that even this habitual quipster complains, “When you get right down to it, wit isn’t any help anywhere.” Still he persevered. And found enough satisfaction from the writing trade to pass along what he learned to students at the University of Iowa’s fabled writers’ workshop. In one class assignment, he urges his students to “adore the Universe, to be easily delighted, but to be prompt as well with impatience with those artists who offend your own deep notions of what the Universe is or should be.” No misanthropes worth their bile could write that with a straight face. He spread comfort out to many precincts: to his children and first wife, in deeply touching letters, accounting for his complicity in the breakup of his marriage; to librarians, teachers and translators in America and abroad facing censure or worse from censors, school boards and other official spoilsports; to other writers trapped in their own wildernesses. However gloomy Kurt Vonnegut could be, he left behind this book, one of his very best, that you could use to keep your own hopes kindled and your insides warm.

Jo Nesbo writes a winner in ‘Phantom’ stark reality of this city in Norway. But there is nothing dismal in Nesbo’s expert storytelling, his innovative plotting or his ability to paint complete portraits of character, from their finest qualities to their secret sins. “Phantom,” the ninth novel about Harry Hole, is Nesbo’s most realistic and his most affecting. The villains — and there are quite a few — are those you might meet on the street, or, heaven forbid, live next door to, making “Phan-

tom” even more chilling. “Phantom” delivers an unnerving view of the far-reaching drug trade and the market for synthetics that may be more dangerous than the real drugs. Nesbo, a best-seller in Europe, has been making inroads with American readers. No doubt a girl and her dragon tattoo have much to do with the increase in the popularity of Scandinavian and Norwegian novels in United States.

POET’S SHOWCASE You Walk Like a Young Girl

“You walk like a young girl,” she said. and I did. But that was years ago when my heels, clicking along the concrete, spoke of youth struggling against time, and determination fighting the inevitable. “You walk like a young girl,” she said, as I laughed and then hurried on, my mind buzzing with plans to be made, appointments to keep, friends to meet. Laughter was easier then. “You walk like a young girl,” she said, a simile I treasured, one that helped to keep me walking, straight and fast, clicking through the days of middle age into my dotage. But time will not be denied. Fleeting minutes stretch into days and days into years. Aging bones crack, tender joints cry out, and steps grow shorter and take longer. “You walk like a young girl,” she said. I wish I still did. — Betty Laird, Lawrence

Teen questions society’s beauty obsession Dear Annie: I am a teenager. In our society, the central message is that you need to look perfect and have tons of money. It’s drilled into our heads every day, and I feel the pressure. Clothing companies tell me I need to wear their labels to be popular, cosmetic companies convince me with airbrushed models that their makeup will make me look flawless, and weight programs promise to give me the perfect body. People undergo surgery to make their faces and bodies more appealing because they have been brainwashed into believing the body they were given isn’t good enough. While all this goes on, there are simultaneous advertisements for suicide hotlines, medication for depression, and help with bulimia

tured by companies that benefit from your purchases. This pressure is internalized and can breed insecurity in those who don’t feel they measure up. We know it’s difficult, but remember that those who are interested primarily in superficial appearances aren’t particularly appealing in the long run. Please don’t feel obligated to attract such people. There are plenty who still value integrity, intelligence, confidence and a good personality. If you cultivate those traits, your self-esteem will develop right alongside them.

Dear Teen: You sound like a pretty smart cookie to us. You already understand that the reason behind such advertisements is to sell product, and that the pressure to be “flawless” is manufac-

Veterans Day can’t escape crude “Family Guy” (8 p.m. Sunday, Fox) celebrates its 200th episode with a clever time-travel theme. Actually, it’s mostly about what happens when Brian the dog breaks Stewie’s time machine, an event that makes time run backward, depicted with extended sight gags unfolding in reverse. If you think watching characters vomit backward is clever, then this show is for you. As someone who rarely watches “Family Guy,” I was struck by its consistently rancid tone of overgrown frat-boy misogyny. Adolescent jokes about female body parts and body functions comprised a high percentage of the humor.

The S c i e n c e Channel celebrates science fiction with the TV special “Firefly 10th Anniversary: Browncoats Unite” (9 p.m. Sunday), a nostalgic exercise in self-congratulation featuring “Firefly” creator Joss Whedon and series writers and regulars.

To mark Veterans Day, Gary Sinise and Joe Mantegna host “National Salute to Veterans” (7 p.m. Sunday, PBS, check local listings). Scheduled participants include Colin Powell, Forest Whitaker, Pia Toscano, Kris Allen, A.J. Cook, Jason Ritter, Yolanda Adams and the National Symphony Orchestra.

Sunday’s other highlights

Scheduled on “60 Minutes” (6 p.m., CBS): a lack of skilled labor; Hurricane Sandy; author David McCullough.

The Chicago Bears host the Houston Texans in “Sunday Night Football” (7 p.m., NBC).

Ruby’s hirsute condition makes her pause on “Once Upon a Time” (7 p.m., ABC).

Beryl and Harry rush toward the altar on “Upstairs Downstairs, Series 2” on “Masterpiece Classic” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings).

Emily’s past is put under the microscope on “Revenge” (8 p.m., ABC).

Another loss rocks Rick on “The Walking Dead” (8 p.m., AMC).

Nucky tries to form a coalition against Gyp on “Boardwalk Empire” (8 p.m., HBO).

A reporter ventures too close to a dangerous story on “The Mentalist” (9 p.m., CBS).

Jane’s reluctance proves a drag on Henry’s rising fortunes on “666 Park Avenue” (9 p.m., ABC).

Sonny pawns his instruments on “Treme” (9 p.m., HBO).

Some wonder if the ends justify the means on “Homeland” (9 p.m., Showtime).

BIRTHDAYS Comedian Jonathan Winters is 87. Golfer Fuzzy Zoeller is 61. Pop singer-musician Paul Cowsill (The Cowsills) is 61. Singer Marshall Crenshaw is 59. Rock singer Dave Alvin is 57.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Sunday, Nov. 11: This year you often seek clarity by taking a walk, doing yoga and/or participating in some other activity that helps ground you. Your psychic energy is unusually high, and you frequently will test it out. If you are single, check out a new person very carefully ... even if you are introduced to him or her by a friend or family member. If you are attached, a partner could be very helpful. 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) As assertive as you are, confusion floats around in your mind. Ask a question or two to help verify what is happening. Tonight: Follow someone’s lead. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Focus on the task at hand, whether it be making cookies with a child, playing cards with friends or even playing chess against your computer. Tonight: Consider the option of being a couch potato. Gemini (May 21-June 20) Honor the differences between you and your loved ones. You could be overwhelmed by the possibilities. Tonight: Put on your dancing shoes. Cancer (June 21-July 22) You like what is happening with a special person at a distance. This person has a role as a dominant force in your decision-making. Tonight: Happy close to home. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You say exactly what is on your mind. You might think you are expressing yourself in a clear and direct manner, yet others easily become confused. Tonight: Meet a friend for dinner.

time off from work or rush like crazy to get there on time. What do you think? — Keep Your Guests in Mind Dear Keep: While bridal couples should not put undue burdens on their guests, they do get to decide what time to start their wedding. (It would be impossible to please everyone.) Many weddings begin with some socialization before the actual ceremony, so you may not be as late or as rushed as you think. Please try to enjoy yourself and wish the couple well without resenting the inconvenience to you.

If you are in a partnership with joint assets, you could become even more concerned, as you’ll find your partner to be unusually overgenerous. Tonight: Make it your treat.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Take a stand, and you’ll accomplish far more than you thought possible. Your instincts will carry you through a problem, though at first you might not be exactly sure whether you are on the “right” side. Tonight: Visit with a loved one. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could discover that a financial situation has caught up to you. It might not be as bad as you think. Tonight: Let the good times roll.

BRIEFLY Iraq mulls $4 billion Russian arms plans

/"5*0/ t 803-%

.

Communities mark Veterans Day

BAGHDAD — Iraq is reconsidering plans to buy more than $4 billion in arms from Russia, officials said Saturday, throwing the proposed purchase into question just weeks after it was announced. The turnaround follows the ouster of Russia’s defense minister earlier this week, and allegations by Iraqi lawmakers and local media that the pending deal is tainted by graft. Prime Minister Nouri alMaliki traveled to Moscow in October and outlined plans to buy the weapons, including helicopter gunships and air defense missiles. The deal would have strengthened Russia’s ties to oil-rich Iraq at a time when Gretchen Ertl/AP Photo the ruling regime of longtime JASON MACHADO, OF FAIRHAVEN, MASS., WALKS AMONG AMERICAN FLAGS at the Mideast ally Syria risks fallgraves of deceased veterans at the National Cemetery in Bourne, Mass., on Saturday. ing in the country’s civil war.

Sotheby’s to sell Jagger’s love letters LONDON — Handwritten letters from Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger to his former lover Marsha Hunt will be auctioned in London next month. Hunt is an American-born singer who was the inspiration for the Stones’ 1971 hit “Brown Sugar” and bore Jagger’s first child. Sotheby’s said Saturday that Hunt has tasked the auction house with selling 10 letters written from the set of Jagger’s film “Ned Kelly,” which was shooting in Australia. Hunt said the letters chronicling their “delicate love affair” and secret history touch on subjects such as the first moon landing and John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

Electoral fraud probe in Virgin Islands CHARLOTTE AMALIE, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS — The attorney general of the U.S. Virgin Islands says he has created a committee to investigate numerous allegations of fraud and corruption during the recent general election. Vincent Frazer appointed a special investigator and four attorneys with the island’s justice department to the investigation. The government says in a statement issued Saturday that Frazer and the U.S. Attorney’s Office have received many complaints from voters. It does not specify the sort of complaints received. Frazer said he expects to release findings by the end of the month.

In a newly released report, the corps said flooding during Isaac was the result of the storm’s landfall just west of the Mississippi River, rainfall amounts of 8 to 20 inches, a forward speed three to four times slower than Katrina and an extended period of easterly winds that pushed surge heights to record levels.

Syrian rebels seek weapons By Barbara Surk and Karin Laub Associated Press

DOHA, QATAR — The newly elected leader of Syria’s main opposition group slammed the international community for what he called inaction, saying Saturday that fighters are in desperate need of weapons to break the stalemate with President Bashar Assad’s forces. George Sabra’s comments came as his Syrian National Council struggled with other opposition groups to try to forge a cohesive and more representative leadership as rebels

step up attacks against regime forces. Two suicide car bombers struck a military camp in the southern city of Daraa on Saturday, killing at least 20 government soldiers and prompting clashes in the area, activists said. Bombings targeting state security institutions have become frequent in recent months, raising Western fears that extremists fighting with the rebels could gain influence. That’s one of the reasons the rebels’ foreign backers are wary of providing weapons. The United States also has become increasingly

frustrated with the opposition’s inability to overcome deep divisions and rivalries in order to present a single conduit for foreign support. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton harshly criticized the SNC late last month and called for a leadership that can rally wider support among activists fighting the regime on the ground. Sabra, who was elected by the SNC on Friday, said the international community should support the opposition and send arms without conditions, rather than linking aid to an overhaul of the leadership.

SUPERSTORM SANDY

Sick, frail struggle most in aftermath By David B. Caruso Associated Press

NEW YORK — Some of society’s most vulnerable people — the elderly, the disabled and the chronically ill — have been pushed to the brink in the powerless, flood-ravaged neighborhoods struggling to recover from Superstorm Sandy. The storm didn’t just knock out electricity and destroy property when it came ashore in places like the Far Rockaway section of Queens. It disrupted the fragile support networks that allowed the neighborhood’s frailest residents to get by. Here, the catastrophe has closed pharmacies, kept home care aids from getting to elderly clients and made getting around in a wheelchair impossible. The city has recorded at least two deaths of older men in darkened buildings. For some living in the disaster zone, it has all been too much. When a team of medics and national guardsmen turned up at Sheila Goldberg’s apartment tower in Far Rockaway on Friday to check on the well-being of residents, floor by floor, the 75-year-old burst into tears and begged for help caring for her 85-year-old husband. “This is a blessing. I’m at my wit’s end,” she sobbed. Her husband, Irwin, has a pacemaker, wears a colostomy bag, and needs her help to do almost everything. When the power was on, Goldberg said, “I could take care of him by myself and survive.” But for days, the building had no heat or electricity. There were no open stores to buy food. Until the end of the week, there was no water or elevators either, meaning residents like the Goldbergs, on the 25th floor, had to cart water up the steps themselves just to flush the toilet. A bad stench permeates much of the building. “I’m running out of my blood pressure medication. We’re both going to drop dead in this apartment,” Sheila said. The medical team said

Hundreds protest outside utility NEW YORK — Even as the lights came for many who lost power in New York and New Jersey during the superstorm and a later nor’easter, hundreds of residents protested Saturday outside a Long Island utility, frustrated by its slow response to outages. Power restoration has been slower there than in other areas hit by Superstorm Sandy, sparking criticism of the Long Island Power Authority. Some of the 130,000 blacked out homes and businesses the utility serves may not have power restored until the end of Tuesday, LIPA said. it would make arrangements to transfer Irwin to a medical facility, at least temporarily. City and federal officials, and a growing army of volunteers, are trying hard to make sure families like that don’t fall into despair. Their efforts come alongside relief workers, donations, volunteers and demolition crews who flocked to New York and New Jersey in recent days to assist in the massive cleanup. The region took a few more steps to move past the storm Saturday, when power was restored for many more and gas rationing eased some of the clogged lines at stations in New York. Paramedics from all over the country, including the ones that found the Goldbergs, fanned out across the Rockaways this weekend to check on shutins and anyone else who might need help. The idea was to find people who “sheltered in place” during the storm, who might need assistance, said Nancy Clark, an assistant commissioner in the city’s health department. Fuel lines in the region remained long, but were only a shade of the nightmare they had been in recent days. Some gas stations on Staten Island had 20 cars in line Saturday afternoon.

Vatican digs in after gay marriage advances in U.S., Europe By Nicole Winfield Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — The Vatican is digging in after gay marriage initiatives scored big wins this week in the U.S. and Europe, vowing to never stop insisting that marriage can only be between a man and a woman. In a front-page article in Saturday’s Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, the Holy See sought to frame itself as the lone voice of courage in opposing initiatives to give samesex couples legal recognition. In a separate Vatican Radio editorial, the pope’s spokesman asked sarcastically why gay marriage proponents don’t now push for legal recognition for polygamous couples as well. Catholic teaching holds

that homosexuals should be respected and treated with dignity but that homosexual acts are “intrinsically disordered.” The Vatican also opposes same-sex marriage, insisting on the sanctity of marriage between a man and woman as the foundation for society. The Vatican’s anti-gay marriage media blitz came after three U.S. states approved same-sex marriage by popular vote in the election that returned Barack Obama to the U.S. presidency, Spain upheld its gay marriage law, and France pushed ahead with legislation that could see gay marriage legalized early next year. “One might say the church, at least on this front, has been defeated,” L’Osservatore Romano wrote. “But that’s not the case.”

The article insisted that Catholics were putting up a valiant fight to uphold church teaching in the face of “politically correct ideologies invading every culture of the world” that are backed by institutions like the United Nations, which last year passed a nonbinding resolution condemning anti-gay discrimination. “The church is called to present itself as the lone critic of modernity, the only check ... to the breakup of the anthropological structures on which human society was founded,” it said. Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi, for his part, said gays can have their rights protected by means other than through legal marital recognition. He stressed that children should have

Stagnant U.S. exports to Cuba belie international fair’s optimism By Peter Orsi

HAVANA Gatorade. Hormel. Hunt. Many of America’s bestknown brands were on display at a Havana exposition center this past week as representatives hawked some of the few U.S. products that can legally be exported to Cuba, thanks to an exception to the U.S. embargo allowing cash-upfront sales of food, agricultural goods and medicine. But cold numbers belie the enthusiasm on the con-

— John Kavulich, senior policy adviser to the New York-based U.S.Cuba Trade and Economic Council, on Cuban purchases of U.S. goods vention center floor. Cuban purchases of U.S. goods have plunged as the island increasingly turns to countries like China, Brazil, Vietnam and Venezuela, which offer cheaper deals, longterm credits and less hassle over payment and shipping. “The pattern that we see

is it’s just continuing to either be lower each year, or if it does increase, it’s just not a lot at all,” said John Kavulich, senior policy adviser to the New Yorkbased U.S.-Cuba Trade and Economic Council. “No executives should be going to a travel agent and buying

a ticket to go down to Havana thinking that there’s going to be a change.” U.S. sales of food and agricultural commodities to the communist-run island began more than a decade ago with the Trade Sanctions Reform Act enacted in 2000 under President Clinton. Modest sales of $138 million the following year rose steadily to a peak of $710 million in 2008, according to statistics calculated by Kavulich’s group. The value of U.S. exports to Cuba has since plummeted to just more than half that

last year at $358 million. It was $250 million through the first six months of 2012, with no sign of improvement. It’s been a tenuous trade from the beginning, partly because of U.S. rules requiring cash payment before goods can even be shipped. Payments must be made through third-party banking systems that take a hefty cut of each transaction, besides the fees levied on multiple currency swaps. Shipping is complicated by U.S. embargo regulations. Moreover, the PR value of buying Made In America faded for

Cuba as it became commonplace to see Coca-Cola in tourist hotels and Miller beer on store shelves. So when a plunging global economy pulled Cuba down with it five years ago, Havana had every incentive to hunt for a better deal from friendly nations where government-run companies offer better terms and often won’t complain publicly about rolling over late payments. Even private-sector companies in those countries may be more pliant, counting on guarantees by their governments.
