PASTOR ERIC GALBREATH, CENTER, greets members of his congregation during church services Sunday at Ninth Street Missionary Baptist Church, 847 Ohio St. Galbreath, a former Kansas University football player, recently returned to Lawrence.

rence and taken the pulpit at Ninth Street Missionary Baptist Church. Although Thoren said he didn’t know Galbreath was coming back to town, learning his old friend is a pastor didn’t quite catch him off guard. “It doesn’t really surprise me at all,” he said. “He was always very into religion as a player and the way he always treated people, he always treated people very well. He was always a good person who would figure out his way to help people in life. I think it’s a perfect fit.” Galbreath, 40, said Thoren might not have been the only one who could have predicted his career in the church.

hen Jason Thoren thinks of his old Kansas University football teammate, Eric Galbreath, he recalls watching the fullback plow through Texas Christian University players during a game in the mid 1990s. “He ran through like six tacklers against TCU one night, and it was really impressive,” Thoren said. “And I remember watching that live and him going down the sideline and how great of a run that was.” The old teammates haven’t seen each other in nearly two decades. And until recently, Thoren said, he was unaware that Galbreath had returned to Law-

The ride featured two scenic routes — an 80-mile trek and a shorter, 40-mile ride — that rolled through Lawrence and the surrounding Douglas County area. Organizers estimated about 500 riders took part in this year’s ride.

All around us Last Thursday marked the start of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and Chapman said it’s a good opportunity for Lawrence residents to recognize it isn’t an “out there” problem; it’s happening every day right here in this community.

In the 2014-2015 year alone, Chapman said, Willow, which services Douglas, Jefferson and Franklin counties, has: l Housed 147 adults and 87 children escaping domestic abuse. l Taken 3,645 calls on its domestic violence hotline. l Helped 484 adults and families in support groups, court advocacy services, work programs and other programming. l Aided 42 victims of human trafficking, including five youths, in finding freedom and safety. Domestic violence reports are among the most prevalent types of calls Lawrence police respond to on any given day. On average, three to seven domestic violence reports appear on the Lawrence Police Department’s 911 call log per day. And those numbers add up quickly. According to the most recent report by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, in 2013, Douglas County had 1,071 incidents of domestic violence reported to law enforcement, yielding 733 arrests. Compare that with the city of Olathe — which at about 126,000 residents has the closest population to Douglas County’s approximate 114,000, according to 2013 U.S. Census data — and Douglas County still ranks higher. Olathe police reported 830 domestic violence incidents and 370 arrests.

Fatal consequences While Rachael’s story is not uncommon, physical violence is also prevalent, Chapman said, and sometimes the consequences can be fatal. Chapman was working as a 911 dispatcher the night of July 3, 2008, when Kansas University law student Jana Mackey was discovered dead in the Lawrence home of her ex-boyfriend, Adolfo Garcia-Nunez. He’d killed her about two weeks after the two had broken up. “I will always carry the memory of that day with me,” Chapman said. “Lawrence went five years without a homicide after that tragedy. But in the past two to three years, I have lost count of how many homicides the city has experienced, and the majority of those are domestic violence-related.” Among them are Margaret Hopkins, whose husband shot her in what he claimed was a mercy killing in November 2013; Wayne Francisco, whose girlfriend stabbed him to death on Christmas Day 2013; and Harold Sasko, whose roommate, Sarah McLinn, nearly decapitated him in Janu-

A helping hand It doesn’t have to go that far. Willow offers services and a listening ear to those in crisis. But Willow is careful not to tell victims what to do, as Executive Director Joan Schultz said: “Everyone is an expert in their own lives.” She said although some people may ask why victims “don’t just leave,” it’s just not that simple. “The most dangerous time for a domestic violence victim is when the person leaves and the two weeks after,” Schultz said. Chapman, who said Willow’s shelter is typically at capacity, said that’s when about 80 to 85 percent of domestic violence deaths occur. Willow instead is committed to helping victims make their own choices, offering any assistance it can. If you or someone you know is in an abusive relationship, reach out for help. Willow in Lawrence has a 24/7 hotline at 1-800-7703030 or 843-3333.

the reality of what God was calling me to do. And I accepted that,” he said. “I acknowledged it publicly, and ever since, I’ve been in ministry and devoted my life to it.” Despite his success on the football field, Galbreath said, he didn’t have a difficult time letting the sport go. “It was good during that time frame, but when it was over I could release it,” he said. “It served its purpose and I embraced every moment of it, but it was time to move on and I moved on.” Living in the South, Galbreath worked as both a high school history teacher and a teacher within a youth correctional facility. At the same time, he was always teaching within the church. Although he served as a minister for many years, Galbreath recalled, it wasn’t until 2008 that he officially became a pastor and head of a church. At the pulpit, or wherever he may be, Galbreath can’t help but draw parallels between sports and faith, often using physical fitness as an easily-accessible metaphor for one’s spiritual fitness. “The work ethic is carried over: In order to be successful you’ve got to

have a work ethic. You can’t give up. Perseverance,” he said. “And even with the ministry you have to have a game plan to be successful, but you’ve got to make audibles, you’ve got to make adjustments. You’ve got external and internal forces that cause you to make adjustments.” A few months ago, Galbreath was offered a position as the head of the Ninth Street church and jumped at the chance to return to Lawrence. Within 30 days of receiving the offer, Galbreath and his family — which now includes three children, ages 7, 12 and 15 — moved back to Lawrence. “This is home for us. This is where our family started,” he said. “We’re basically coming back home.” Robert Shorter, a minister at the church, met Galbreath there when he was still in school. Now, the congregation of about 200 is happy to have him back. “He has a passion for the people and wanting to help and do good, so I think he’ll be a good fit,” Shorter said. “I look forward to doing ministry with him and seeing the church grow and being a positive effect on the community.”

Violence

fear under the threat of, “What’s next?” “Especially when it comes to stalking; there are not a lot of laws on the books when it comes to identifying and labeling stalking,” Chapman said. “Often in the legal system, the only act considered domestic violence is the physical. The emotional and psychological aspects are left out.” And sometimes, Chapman said, abusers use the legal system itself to harass victims. For example, in court during a hearing on Rachael’s protection from stalking order, Rachael’s abuser had the chance to question her on the stand. “I had to sit on the witness stand as he said I do drugs and have crazy sex, in front of my dad (in the courtroom),” Rachael said. “It’s not true. It was really traumatic.” Willow provides court advocates during these hearings as emotional support, but Rachael said she wasn’t aware of the organization at the time.

home, she’s never too far from a baseball bat or her shotgun. She’s spent thousands in lawyer fees to obtain protection from stalking orders. Still, she said, she feels “helpless.” “I would rather have him beat the (expletive) out of me and be done,” Rachael said. “I feel like a sitting target. What’s next?” She said her abuser has broken into her house and left her messages inside. He’s reported untrue allegations about her to police, Social Services and her employer, all of which authorities determined to be false. She lost her job, has had her car searched by police, and Child Protective Services has investigated her home following the incidents. “He is systematically ruining my life,” Rachael said.

One of many Rachael’s story is not uncommon, Willow Domestic Violence Center Community Engagement Director Kristine Chapman said. Domestic violence takes on many forms. Though Rachael doesn’t have a black eye to prove her abuse, she and many other domestic violence sufferers in our community live in constant

LAWRENCE

Smoke closes downtown diner Sunday A Lawrence restaurant that recently recovered from fire-related damage had another scare Sunday afternoon. Ladybird Diner, 721 Massachusetts St., was evacuated after smoke from an appliance in the basement affected the restaurant. The restaurant closed for the rest of the day Sunday and is typically closed Mondays. Firefighters with Law-

rence-Douglas County Fire Medical responded about 1 p.m. to reports of smoke at the diner. Mark Elliott, battalion chief with Lawrence Douglas-County Fire Medical, said a clothes dryer with towels inside overheated and started to smoke. The dryer was in the basement, and smoke was visible on both floors, he said. Firefighters used fans to

ventilate the building once it was determined there were no flames. No water was used, Elliott said. No one was injured. The restaurant reopened in August; it had been closed for more than six months after it sustained smoke and water damage when firefighters put out a fire in an adjacent restaurant.

Bike

the City Commission on Oct. 20 so city planners can submit a grant application for the project, Mortinger said. The application is due later that week. At its meeting Sept. 21, members of the bicycle advisory committee gave Mortinger feedback on the different types of parking and where they should be located. Member Lisa Hallberg said she liked the idea of parking on the street — an option that would be available with the installation of bike corrals. Bike corrals turn one car parking space into parking for eight to 10 bikes. Mortinger said the corrals would reduce sidewalk congestion and keep bicycles on the streets — instead of the sidewalks. “I like on-street parking,” Hallberg said. “We’re not allowed to bike on the sidewalk downtown, so we have to dismount.” Mortinger said the public would need to make “a value judgment.” “Some bicycle advocates would say it brings legitimacy and visibility to bicycling as transportation,” Mortinger said. “That’s one side of the story in terms of what they are. They are a value judgment in terms of valuing that space as a parking space.” Hallberg also proposed installing a new type of bicycle parking at the corner of Massachusetts Street and

10th Street, where there’s currently a “cone rack.” With cone racks, or “wheel benders,” Mortinger said, cyclists can lock their bike by only its front wheel. The Association of Pedestrian and Bicycle Professionals recommend racks that allow cyclists to lock their bikes in two places in order to prevent theft. To achieve that standard, Mortinger said, planners would propose the installation of some inverted U racks. Although a pilot program would bring an immediate addition to downtown bike parking, Mortinger challenged the bicycle advisory committee to look at the long term. She suggested creating a process through which downtown businesses or other organizations could request and pay for the installation of more parking. “The biggest thing and one of the things that has to be grappled with is that there’s a need for more,” Mortinger said. “If the pilot program is successful and businesses recognize the value of that, we need a more long-term solution and a process where they can apply to have bike parking. It would be better if we had a more systematic approach.”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

racks and bike corrals — along Massachusetts Street and other locations downtown. It will be presented to the commission as a pilot program, and more locations could be added after the first round of installations is assessed. “The thing about bicycle parking is, we’re looking for convenience,” Mortinger said. “There are examples of poor installation of bike racks all over town.” The idea for additional bicycle parking was brought up after a downtown business made a request for it, Mortinger told the JournalWorld in August. Bicyclists at a LawrenceDouglas County Bicycle Advisory Committee in September also noted a lack of adequate and safe parking. A complete plan, including proposed locations, parking types and cost estimates, will first be released to the public Oct. 12, when the plan appears on the agenda for the LawrenceDouglas County Bicycle Advisory Committee. That committee will provide feedback on the plan at its Oct. 19 meeting. Mortinger said she would also get feedback from members of Downtown Lawrence Inc. The plan needs to go to

Company move carries 18 jobs

financial services firm with offices in Johnson County and Topeka is moving its corporate headquarters to Lawrence and will be bringing jobs here in the process. DM Bruce Associates has completed a deal to buy a west Lawrence office building at 4911 Legends Drive to house its financial advisers, planners and administrative staff who provide financial planning services for families and small businesses across the country. The company plans to have 18 jobs in Lawrence when it opens later this year. “Running two locations

was quite the operation for us,” said Zach Stover, vice president of operations for the company. “There are a lot of things we feel like we can be more efficient at by consolidating. Lawrence is the halfway point, and it just made a lot of sense for us to make the move.”

The company is locating in the building that formerly was occupied by Harris Computer Systems. Stover said the approximately 6,500-square-foot building was purchased with long-term plans in mind. “I still feel like we have a lot of potential to grow,” Stover said. “We take on and launch new financial advisers when we see the opportunity. It is a nice piece of land, and we could build additional space if we need to down the line.” Marilyn Bittenbender of Lawrence’s Colliers International brokered the sale of the building. Stover said he hopes the company will be op-

erating in the Lawrence office by December. The company plans to keep satellite offices open in Topeka and Overland Park. The company has been in operation in one form or another since 1974, Stover said. The company provides services in investment management, insurance consulting, financial planning, and also has a company that provides consulting services to other, independent financial advisers, according to the company’s website. — This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which appears each weekday at LJWorld.com.

Vice provost candidate to speak today

t least one of three finalists for Kansas University’s next vice provost for undergraduate studies is a KU insider. Ruth Ann Atchley, professor and chair of KU’s Department of Psychology, will make a public presentation from 4 to 4:45 p.m. today at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union, 1301 Jayhawk Blvd. Her assigned topic: “What are the three biggest challenges to student academic success that public research universities face?

Attorneys ask court to lift stay in school funding lawsuit Topeka (ap) — Attorneys representing Kansas school districts that are suing the state over inadequate funding have asked the Kansas Supreme Court to lift a stay on a lower court ruling and release state funds to public school districts. Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt responded Friday with a brief arguing that the lower court failed to evaluate the case properly, and that the state has complied with the high court’s previous orders. He added that Kansas students are showing solid performance in reading and math despite “doomsday hyperbole” by plaintiffs, the Topeka Capital-Journal reported. “This is hardly a picture of the state acting in bad faith,” Schmidt said. “The districts’ outrageous claims that the Legislature, the governor and the state’s counsel have acted in bad faith are baseless.” A three-judge panel found in June that the state’s newly enacted block-grant strategy for financing 285 school districts and cuts to state aid for low-income school districts were unconstitutional. Schmidt requested a stay on the district court’s order while he pursued an appeal. The Supreme Court approved the stay and scheduled oral arguments for Nov. 6.

in 2009. With nearly 1,000 students, psychology is the fourth most popular undergraduate major at KU, and the department is home to 38 faculty members, according to Atchley the university. The third vice provost candidate, whose name has not yet been announced, will speak from 4 to 4:45 p.m. Wednesday at the Malott Room in the Union. KU should be announcing that name about 48 hours prior. The first finalist named was DeAngela Burns-Wallace, assistant vice pro-

FIRE SAFETY

Understand your extinguisher before you need to use it

Fix-It Chick

ire is a scary thing. It can spread quickly and usurp all the available oxygen. Most fires are much more dangerous than they appear to be. Fire extinguishers are a great tool for controlling small fires, but knowing when and how to use an extinguisher is essential for personal safety. Step 1: Use a fire extinguisher when the fire is small, excessive smoke or fumes are not present, and there is a clear exit path behind you as you face the fire. Otherwise, exit the building immediately, closing the doors behind you. Call 911 once you are safely outside. Step 2: Be certain the fire extinguisher you are about to use is the correct extinguisher for the fire at hand. Grease, oil or other liquid-based fires can only be extinguished with a Type B or Type K extinguisher. Waterbased extinguishers will accelerate the fire and cause a very dangerous situation. A Type A extinguisher should only be used on wood and paper fires. Electrical fires should be put out with a Type C extinguisher. Step 3: Use the acronym “RACE” when responding immediately to a fire: Rescue, alarm, confine and extinguish. Step 4: Rescue anyone in immediate danger from the fire, if you can do so safely, without injury to yourself. Step 5: In public buildings, set off the fire alarm as soon as possible. Step 6: Confine the fire by closing doors

Linda Cottin and windows. Move highly flammable items out of the path of the fire, if possible. Step 7: Extinguish the fire using the acronym “PASS”: Pull, aim, squeeze and sweep. Step 8: Pull the tab from the side of the extinguisher nozzle to unlock the trigger of the extinguisher. Step 9: Aim the extinguisher at base of the fire. Step 10: Using both hands to steady the extinguisher, squeeze the trigger to release the extinguishing agent. Step 11: Move the extinguisher from side to side in a sweeping motion. Keep the flow from the extinguisher focused on the base of the fire. Step 12: If the fire is extinguished in five seconds and the area is safe, check for sparks or embers that could allow the fire to rekindle. Use care and caution to separate the charred or burned material and allow it to cool. Step 13: If it takes more than five seconds to extinguish the fire, evacuate immediately and call the fire department. — Have a home improvement question for the Fix-It Chick?

OK to politely ask chatterbox friend for privacy Dear Annie: My husband and I are friends with another couple in our neighborhood. The majority of the time, we get along well. The problem is, “Susie” is very loud and an extremely poor conversationalist. She dominates the get-togethers by talking about nonsense, and she constantly repeats herself. She interrupts everyone with, “Oh, I’ve done that,” and off she goes about herself. We have out-of-town family visiting soon and these neighbors have invited themselves over. How do I tell them they aren’t welcome because we don’t want them to have to tolerate Susie’s behavior? I see my family infrequently and we don’t want to be uncomfortable with the relatives in our own home. — Frustrated Friendship

Dear Frustrated: There is nothing wrong with telling Susie and her husband that you want to spend some private time with your family. Should they drop by, you can introduce them, but then nicely usher them out, telling Susie you will visit with them when you are less occupied. But don’t assume that your relatives will find Susie as annoying as you do. For a brief visit, she could be tolerable. Dear Annie: I was

Teens’ social media habits exposed Popularity, cliques, acne, social mortification: Adolescence has never been easy. Has the viral world of social media changed this, or merely allowed teens and tweens to experience this passage in a different way? The CNN Special Report “Being 13: Inside the Secret World of Teens” (8 p.m.) reflects the findings of a two-year study. After gaining permission from students and parents, researchers monitored more than 150,000 p o s t s made on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook over a period of six months by hundreds of eighth-graders. Participants and their parents also completed surveys about social media’s impact on their relationships. Host Anderson Cooper speaks to participating family members as well as child psychologist Dr. Marion Underwood and sociologist Dr. Robert Faris to sift through the findings — good, bad and ugly. O Portwenn enthusiasts are in luck. And you know who you are. The long-anticipated seventh season of “Doc Martin” arrives on these shores, exclusively on the Acorn Streaming service. Martin Clunes, who plays the socially awkward and bloodaverse physician in a picturesque Cornish seaside village filled with eccentric characters, was recently seen as Arthur Conan Doyle on the “Masterpiece” presentation “Arthur & George.” O Restoration expert Paul Shull hosts “The Weapon Hunter” (7 p.m., Smithsonian). Over the course of a season he will join scholars and weaponry buffs to search for guns, artillery and antiques that have been used throughout the history of warfare. First up, a crosscountry trip to locate World War II sniper weapons, including the British Lee-Enfield, the American M1 Garand, the German Mauser K98, and the Soviet SVT-40.

saddened and upset by the letter from “Angry Sis,” whose brother “John” stopped speaking to his 83-year-old mother after she asked him to testify against his abusive stepfather. “Sis” asked whether she had to invite John to Mom’s funeral when she died. Her letter showed a lack of empathy and understanding for victims of childhood sexual abuse. Mom brought the pedophile stepfather into the family. John’s attitude may stem from the anger he rightfully feels toward his mother for her failure to protect him. Children often excuse the “passive” parent and project them as another victim of the abuser because they cannot bear to see the truth. Sis, too, may be directing her anger at John instead of her mother.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Oct. 5: You see a matter differently from how you have in the past. You demonstrate unusual sensitivity and empathy, and many people recognize these new qualities of yours. If you are single, you will meet many new people. If you are attached, the two of you will decide to enhance your commitment. 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) +++ If you tap into your intuition and consider the best-case scenario, you will be left with a big smile. Tonight: Head home. Taurus (April 20-May 20) ++++ You tend to stabilize others. An interaction with a water sign will pave the path to greater caring and sensitivity. Tonight: Where the action is. Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ You’ll recognize that you need more stability; however, your finances seem to be perpetually changing. Tonight: You can afford to go with the flow. Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++ Tension surrounds your domestic life, especially in a realestate matter. For now, keep your thoughts to yourself. Tonight: Do some research on the Web. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) +++ Step back from a negotiation, at least for the moment. You might not have all the facts. Tonight: As much sleep as possible.

Whenever abuse is present, it creates a toxic situation for the family. It is important for Sis to know she can accept Mom’s failure to provide a safe home for her children and still continue to love and be loved by Mom. I sincerely pray that she may be the catalyst to help this family heal while Mom is alive. — S. Dear S.: Many readers weighed in on this letter, saying that Sis did not comprehend the level of John’s own trauma and possible anger after having been abused as a child, especially when Mom went to court to protect his half-brother, but didn’t for him. We, too, hope she can help the family heal. — Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.

EDITORIALS

Disappointing news New reports don’t bode well for the Kansas economy or state revenues.

hree reports released last week painted an ongoing discouraging picture of the Kansas economy. On Thursday, the Kansas Department of Revenue reported another shortfall in state tax revenues. In September, the state brought in $534 million in taxes, about 5.5 percent below the forecasted $565 million. That adds to a cumulative shortfall for the first quarter of the state’s fiscal year. Since the fiscal year began in July, tax collections have been $1.37 billion, which is $67 million or about 4.7 percent short of expectations. This trend obviously doesn’t bode well for the state. The budget approved for the fiscal year is based on predicted tax revenue for the year. If revenues continue to fall below the predictions, the state may once again be forced to make arbitrary midyear cuts to meet its expenses. When revenues fell below expectations in August, state officials blamed it on unexpectedly large income tax refunds paid out during the month. For September, officials pointed to a dip in farm income and declining energy prices, which reduced taxes collected on income and on oil and gas productions. Those factors also were cited in a couple of disappointing economic reports released last week. Wichita State University’s Center for Economic Development and Business Research reported that the Kansas economy is growing much more slowly than in the rest of the nation and likely would remain sluggish next year. While the nation’s employment rate increased by 2.1 percent in the last 12 months, the Kansas employment rate rose by just 0.9 percent, according to the WSU report. Another report that included nine Midwestern and Plains states also indicated a slowdown in the region’s economy. The Mid-American Business Conditions index dropped from 49.6 in August to 47.7 in September. Kansas saw a similar decrease from 48.2 in August to 47.1 in September. Any score below 50 indicates economic decline. Missouri’s index slipped slightly but stayed in positive territory with a score of 50.5. Kansans still are waiting for some good financial news. Higher sales and cigarette taxes were supposed to shore up state tax revenues; lower income taxes were supposed spur more jobs in the state. Neither of those strategies is working, and the state is running through its cash reserves and perhaps heading toward another budget crisis. Gov. Sam Brownback keeps saying the state just needs to “stay the course,” but for how long?

Space exploration still pride-inducing Baltimore — Twinkling stars are pretty but, for astronomers, problematic. Twinkles are caused by the interference of Earth’s atmosphere with light radiating throughout the breathtakingly beautiful and unimaginably violent universe. In 1990, however, the Hubble telescope went into orbit 370 miles above Earth, beyond the atmospheric filter, peering perhaps 12 billion years into the past, almost to the Big Bang of 13.7 billion years ago. It has seen interesting things, including HD 189733b, a planet about 63 light-years (370 trillion miles) away, where winds exceed 4,000 mph and it rains molten glass. As Hubble nears the end of its life, its much more capable successor, the James Webb Space Telescope, named after a former NASA administrator, is being developed at Johns Hopkins University. The campus has several history departments. Some study humanity’s achievements during its existence, which has been barely a blink in cosmic time. Other historians — the scientists and engineers of the Space Telescope Science Institute — study the origins of everything in order to understand humanity’s origins. In 2018, Webb will be situated 940,000 miles from Earth, orbiting the sun in tandem with Earth, to continue investigating our place in the universe.

As Hubble nears the end of its life, its much more capable successor, the James Webb Space Telescope, named after a former NASA administrator, is being developed at Johns Hopkins University.” able billions of galaxies, each with uncountable billions of stars. Our Milky Way galaxy, where we live, probably has 40 billion planets approximately Earth’s size. Looking at the sky through a drinking straw, the spot you see contains 10,000 galaxies. Yet the cosmos is not crowded: If there were just three bees in America, the air would be more congested with bees than space is with stars. Matter, however, is not all that matters. America’s manned moon expeditions ended in 1972, but modern cosmology began with the 1965 discovery that the universe is permeated with background radiation. This, like everything else, is a residue of the Big Bang that, in a hundredth

of a billionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second, set stuff — some of it now congealed into galaxies — flying apart. The recipe for our biophilic (friendly to life) planet was cooked in the universe’s first onehundredth of a second, at a temperature of a hundredthousand-million degrees centigrade. Einstein’s theory that space is curved by gravity requires a nonstatic universe, expanding or contracting. With a lightgathering mirror seven times larger than Hubble’s, and operating in temperatures of minus 388 degrees Fahrenheit, Webb will gather extraordinarily faint light that has been traveling for billions of years since the Big Bang. With Webb looking back in time to a few hundred million years after the explosion, scientists will analyze light for clues concerning the earliest formation of stars, planets, galaxies and us. Hubble, which is the size of a school bus, supplies data for more than one-fifth of all scholarly astronomy papers. Webb, which will be the size of a tennis court, will advance knowledge about this stupendous improbability: How did material complexity, then single-cell life, then animals and consciousness emerge from chaos? Webb will not shed light on two interesting questions: How many universes are there? Is everything the result of a meaningless cosmic sneeze, or of an intentional First Cause? Webb will, however, express our species’ dignity as curious

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Oct. 5, 1915: “Harry years Coleman, a young ago man who works IN 1915 for the Al Smith stock farm north of town, had a narrow escape from going over the Kaw river dam this morning when a team he was driving ran away across the bridge. Coleman was thrown from the top of the wagon built high with sideboards and would have been thrown into the river, but for the fact that he struck one of the uprights on the side of the bridge.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

creatures. Since Copernicus’ great impertinence — displacing Earth and its passengers from the center of the universe — we have learned that “center” is senseless in an expanding universe that has no edge and where space and time are warped. Our solar system is not even the center of our galaxy. We know neither the conditions when, 4 billion years ago, Earth became home for life, nor the processes that ignited life. But half of the 200 billion stars just in our Milky Way have planetary systems, so a basic question of religion — Where did we come from? — leads to another: Are we — carbon- and water-based, oxygen-breathing creatures — alone? Earth revolves around our expiring sun, which is scheduled to burn out in just 5 billion years. At about that time, our Milky Way will collide with the neighboring Andromeda galaxy. This is not apt to end well. Meanwhile, however, the scientist-historians here will try to tickle from the cosmos information for its own sake. Space exploration began from Cold War imperatives, producing rocketry, intelligence satellites and national prestige. Webb, which only America could make happen, does not contribute to the nation’s defense, but, as its creators say with justifiable pride, it makes the nation all the more worth defending.

Technology not transforming education By Gene A. Budig and Alan Heaps

For decades, there has been a vision of an education system transformed by technology. Many have believed, or at least hoped, that the combined power of hardware, software and the Internet would vastly improve student performance. This vision has many facets, including schools with a level playing field for rich and poor; a vibrant connected global community of students and teachers; and vast resources including not only books, images, music and videos, but also bold, compelling and effective ideas. These notions are now being seriously questioned. A new report, “Students, Computers and Learning: Making the Connection,” from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development studied the impact of technology on education in 31 countries. One quote from the executive summary captures the report’s two major findings. “The results show no appreciable improvements in student achievement in reading, math or science in those countries that invested heavily in ICT (information and communication technology) for education. And perhaps the most disappointing finding in the report is that technology is of little help in bridging the skills divide between advantaged and disadvantaged students.” (Lest anyone think that our students

technologically outperform their peers from other countries, the United States ranked 13th on “how well students are able to read, navigate and understand online texts” despite having Budig a higher student to computer ratio than almost all of the countries surveyed.) There are some in the education community who will not be surprised by these findings. Two years ago, the Center for Ameri- Heaps can Progress issued a white paper that stated, “In short, there is little indication that technology has revolutionized our nation’s school system.” Earlier this year, Larry Cuban, professor emeritus of education at Stanford University, wrote, “The fact is that no substantial basis in research findings or existing data on the academic effectiveness of classroom technology warrant the boom-town spread of classroom devices.” And we do spend money on classroom technology. It is estimated that K-12 technology expenditures in 2015 will be $4.7 billion. (Add another $6.6. billion in 2015 for higher education.) Those cautious about the impact of

technology are not saying that it is of little import. What they are saying is that there has been a rush to implement technology with few guidelines, little analyses of its impact on student learning, and skimpy teacher training. The result is that it is frequently used as added support for antiquated and ineffective classroom activities. But the significance of the new report goes beyond technology. It is another compelling reminder that too often easy solutions are provided to complicated problems. Education has certainly been guilty of this. At various times over the last few decades, in addition to technology, other simplistic responses such as testing or common standards or teacher evaluations have been put forward to drive school reform. Improving student outcomes will require a multi-faceted approach. It must be built around better teaching (primarily more support for our teachers) but will also require family and community involvement, social services, broader curricula and more extracurricular activities. When classroom technology is bundled with a set of well thought out and tested interventions, then, and only then, will it fulfill its potential. — Gene A. Budig is past president of three major state universities, including Kansas University and of Major League Baseball’s American League. Alan Heaps is a former vice president of the College Board.

L awrence J ournal -W orld their control,” she said. Presentations on social media for parents and students will be given at all four of the district’s middle schools this year. The presentations will provide parents with the information they need to have an informed conversation with their student at home, Johnson said. “The parent night is just an opportunity for parents to step in a talk with their kid,” she said. “We’ve laid out the education, we’ve given you the facts, and now you need to talk with your family.” The first parent presentation will be for Southwest parents today. The presentations will include an overview of social media and information on online safety and responsibility provided by a juvenile investigator with the Lawrence Police Department and Lawrence school resource officers. The other three middle school presentations are not yet scheduled, but parents will get a notification two weeks before the event at their student’s school, Johnson said. Each of the four parent presentations will be followed by school assemblies and follow-up classroom discussions with guidance counselors for students. The assemblies and discussions provide the chance for students to ask questions in both large and small group settings or with an anonymous note, Johnson said. “As a teacher, you want to do your best to personalize the learning, especially with sensitive subjects like this,” Johnson said. “A lot of kids won’t want to speak out and ask questions in a large group.” The district’s initiative, referred to as “digital citizenship,” could also expand beyond the presentations and health education in the future. One of the school board’s goals this year is to further integrate digital citizenship into the curriculum and increase parent involvement. “Digital citizenship is about teaching students to use technology safely, legally, responsibly and respectfully,” said Julie Boyle, Lawrence public schools spokesperson. Boyle explained that integration means that appropriate use of technology can be taught across all subject areas, such as when students are researching information for a history paper or writing a blog for English class. Johnson said that part of the school board initiative will be determining how digital citizenship will look in each subject. “It’s understanding that in every curricular area, we are a digital society,” Johnson said.

Applications or apps for various social media platforms are designed for use on smartphones or other mobile devices. The apps are most often free, install to the device with a few steps and enable users to post text, photos or videos to social media with a couple taps to their screens. Each social media platform has elements unique to it, as well as its own set of terminology, and usually specific verbs — posting for Facebook, tweeting for Twitter, snapping for Snapchat — to describe user updates. Most teens report using multiple platforms, and the top four most commonly used platforms, according to Pew Research Center, are described below: Facebook: Users can share photos, videos and text with their network of friends to public or private groups or via private messages. All formats of posts can be commented on. Users can indicate preference for others’ posts by clicking a thumbs-up icon — known as a “like” — and posts of any format can be shared, which displays them to the network of friends of the user who shares it. The number of likes, shares and comments is tallied under the post. Instagram: Users post, caption and comment on photographs and videos and can use Instagram to post directly to other platforms. Known for filters and photo editing akin to a scaled-down version of Photoshop. Posts can be liked by clicking a heart icon under the post, and likes are tallied. Snapchat: Photo messages, usually sent between two individuals, with or without captions that “disappear” once seen by the recipient, though users can choose to save them. Known for humorous filters (such as appearing in a fish tank) and the ability to mark on photos. Twitter: Short messages, called tweets, are limited to 140 characters and can be accompanied by photos or short video clips. Tweets can be favorited by clicking a star icon and shared by retweeting, and both functions are tallied under the post.

education for parents and students will help prevent issues — such as cyber bullying, sharing of private information or other inappropriate use — from increasing as well. “The fact is that, especially with social media, parents need to attempt to stay one step ahead of their students, and that’s a difficult task to do,” said Denise Johnson, the district’s curriculum coordinator for health and wellness. Parents need to talk with their kids, but that requires they have an understanding of the topic, Johnson said. Expanding education about responsible, safe and appropriate use of social media in the middle and high schools — through school assemblies, presentations and curriculum in both health and sex education — is part of the strategy to further integrate the topic at school and home, Johnson said. Beyond topics such as bullying and safety, longexisting issues that have expanded to cyber realms, there are also more contemporary ones, such as sexting. Sexting — the sending of sexual texts, often including explicit photographs — is one of the topics addressed by the human sexuality curriculum for Lawrence middle school students and part of the National Human Sexuality Education Standards that were first implemented last year, Johnson said. With all types of messages students send or post, they need to realize the permanency of them, Johnson said. That includes messages sent with apps such as Snapchat that don’t automatically save a record of photos and messages but still give users the ability to do so, she explained. “It’s educating them, so the students have a deepening understanding of what’s on your phone and what you send out there is out there forever,” she said. About 70 percent of teenagers ages 13 to 17 report having access to a smartphone, and about 90 percent report going online daily — including about 25 percent who say they go online “almost constantly,” according to a recent study from Pew Research Center. As far as social media use, Facebook is the most popular social media platform, with about 70 percent of all teens using the site. About half of teens use Instagram, nearly as many use Snapchat and about 70 percent of teens report using more than one platform. Johnson said that providing information about social media to teens is being proactive as opposed to reactive to its use. “Hopefully we’re able to front-load them with the information before it’s out of

Bernanke: More execs should be jailed

This season, Ben Bernanke was able to sit through an entire Nationals game. During the financial meltdown in 2008, the then-chairman of the Federal Reserve would buy a lemonade and head to his seats two rows back from the Washington Nationals dugout. But often he would find himself huddling in the quiet of the stadium’s first-aid station or an empty stairwell for consultations on his BlackBerry about whatever economic catastrophe was looming. “I think there was a reasonably good chance that, barring stabiliWASHINGTON

Ex-Fed chairman Ben Bernanke says numbers, data in baseball makes game come alive.

Bernanke has some thoughts about what went right and what went wrong. For one thing, he says that more corporate executives should have gone to jail for their misdeeds. The Justice Department and other law enforcement agencies focused on indicting or threatening to indict financial firms, he notes, “but it would have been my preference to have more investigation of individual action, since obviously everything that went wrong or was illegal was done by some individual, not by an abstract firm.” He also offers a detailed rebuttal to critics who argue the government could and should have done more to rescue Lehman v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

1,000-YEAR STORM SLAMS S.C. ‘Mind-boggling rain’ forces curfew and evacuations John Bacon USA TODAY

South Carolina’s weather disaster intensified Sunday as “historic” rainfall up to 2 feet in some areas combined with high winds to strand motorists and residents and force hundreds of evacuations and rescues. The rain was forecast to continue deep into Monday in some parts of the state. Gov. Nikki Haley said South Carolina’s first responders were battling flooding from rains that can be expected once in 1,000 years. “Our goal is all hands on deck,”

Haley said of the emergency response. “We will get through this, but we need everyone to stay strong.” Overnight curfews were in effect beginning at 6 p.m. Sunday across wide areas of South Carolina, including Columbia, Sumter and several counties. The National Weather Service’s Charleston office reported “mind-boggling rain amounts.” They included 24-plus inches in Mount Pleasant, a suburb of Charleston, since the storm began Thursday. Columbia recorded more than 10 inches. Haley said three deaths have been tied to the storm that has hovered over the state. She said first responders received more than 750 rescue calls in a 12-hour period that started before dawn Sunday. Hundreds of road closures were reported, including a section of Interstate 95.

Flash floods kill 16 in French Riviera IN NEWS

Haley said 600 National Guard personnel have been called out, with hundreds more on alert. President Obama approved federal disaster aid for South Carolina. AccuWeather senior meteorologist Dan Pydynowski called it the worst overall weather event in the state since Hurricane Hugo, which made landfall near Charleston as a Category 4 storm in 1989, killing 27 people. “Charleston got 11.5 inches of rain on Saturday, which is a one-day record,” Pydynowski said. “Today, Columbia is setting records.” In Mount Pleasant, Sarah Shinners said her home was above the waterline, but the only road out of her neighborhood was

impassable. “Everything around us is completely flooded,” Shinners told USA TODAY. “We are just hunkering down.” Much of the East Coast has been saturated by rains since Thursday. Power was out at about 50,000 residences and businesses in South Carolina and Georgia as of Sunday afternoon. “Major to localized catastrophic flash flooding along with possible landslides and mudslides in the higher elevations of South Carolina and Georgia remain an ongoing concern,” the National Weather Service warned. The weather service blamed a low pressure system that has stalled over the state since Thursday, combined with the outer edges of Hurricane Joaquin. The Category 2 hurricane, with sustained top winds of 105 mph, avoided a direct hit to the U.S.

Assad hails Russian airstrikes as only way to save region Syrian activists say raids hit rebels not with ISIL Gregg Zoroya USA TODAY

Russia said Sunday it has “intensified” airstrikes against Islamic State targets in Syria, while embattled Syrian President Bashar Assad hailed the Russian attacks as the only way to save the Middle East from terrorism. Syrian activists continued to assert that these recent air raids by Russian aircraft are hitting rebel factions other than the Islam-

ic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS, according to media reports. Assad, in his first remarks since the Russian airstrikes began Wednesday, told Iran’s Khabar TV that the U.S.-led coalition to fight the Islamic State will only spark more instability in his country. He also accused Western nations of fueling a massive exodus of Syrians that, added to migrants fleeing other Asian and African countries, has created the largest crisis in Europe since World War II. Assad said the Russian air campaign could succeed because it is supported by Iran and has international, if not Western, support. “It must succeed or we are fac-

and western Syria, while the Islamic State largely occupies eastern portions of the country. The defense ministry said one recent mission was against an Islamic State training camp and ammo depot near Raqqa, the militant group’s de facto capital in Syria. President Obama criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin at a Washington news conference Friday for failing to distinguish his airstrikes against Islamic State extremists and moderate Sunni opposition forces seeking to oust Assad. The United States, France, Turkey, Germany, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Britain issued a statement condemning Russia’s airstrikes.

8 lessons learned from a music festival

CHARLES REAGAN HACKLEMAN

With the Washington Monument towering in the background, The Strokes perform Sunday night at the Landmark Music Festival in the nation’s capital. Emily Brown @emilygbrown USATODAY

Somehow, I made it through high school, college and even my twenties without attending a music festival. So when the twoday Landmark Music Festival popped up on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., recently, I went all in. Here’s what I learned: 1. It’s worth it for the people watching. To summarize the cross section of humanity that came together at this event would be doing the experience a disser-

vice. But I’ll try. Pretend the Great Flood was coming and Noah needed two of every imaginable person representing different ages, sizes, shapes, colors, styles and hairdos. That’s what it was like. We were on the Ark. 2. I don’t own ‘festival’ clothes. What am I supposed to wear to this thing!? All I knew is that I wanted to wear sneaks. Standing all day + portapotties means I want closed-toed, comfortable shoes. There were a few costumes, flowered headbands and plenty of fringe, but I definitely didn’t feel out of place in my jeans and light sweater. 3. Bring a giant, identifiable tchotchke if you want your friends to find you. Not only is it hard to find your friends in a massive crowd in an

open field, but cell service can be spotty with so many people texting from one location. Seasoned festival-goers had odd things on large sticks for all to see: sock monkey, toy raccoon, pirate flag. I was amused by inflatable dolphins partially blocking my view of Drake, and a giant inflatable turtle waving his little arms in the air during alt-J. If you don’t bring something, stick close to someone who did. 4. If there’s an app, use it. Landmark had an app that let me customize a schedule and check the map, and sent push notifications about logistics. It streamlined Landmark’s Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts into the app so I didn’t have to jump through platforms. 5. There’s no way to beat the system.

The bar lines are long. The bathroom lines are long. The food lines are long. We thought of creative ways to move ahead more quickly in each, only to realize the organizers had thought of that too and found ways to thwart it. 6. Bring a portable charger. There were a few charging stations, but none of them was near the stages. The lines for the stations became atrocious toward the evening, with a club-style one out, one in rule. Portable external batteries are available for less than $20 and mean you won’t miss a second of your favorite band. 7. You can bring your kids — and your parents. There were tiny babies wearing noise-canceling headphones,

toddlers jumping from blanket to blanket and parents holding their elementary school-age kids on their shoulders for a better view. There were also adult children, texting to meet up with their parents before the next band. 8. Do your homework. I knew (or had heard of ) five of the bands when the festival lineup was first released. (Don’t judge.) To prepare, I created a Spotify playlist with a dozen or so of the artists, pretty much guessing at which songs to save. Even if I hadn’t memorized the lyrics, or remembered which group sang which song, I recognized a lot more of the tunes than I expected when I was watching the live performances.

‘Where’s my bailout?’ bumper sticker hurt v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Brothers from bankruptcy in the worst weekend of a tumultuous time. “We were very, very determined not to let it collapse,” he says. “But we were out of bullets at that point.” Still, he does acknowledge some missteps by the Fed. Analysts were slow to realize just how serious the economic downturn would become, and he faults himself for not doing more to explain to Americans why it was in their interests to rescue the financial firms that had helped cause it. “Every time I saw a bumper sticker which said, ‘Where’s my bailout?’ it hurt,” he told Capital Download. That is a rare admission of emotion. In the 2011 HBO movie Too Big to Fail, actor Paul Giamatti won a Screen Actors Guild award for his portrayal of the Fed chairman as restrained in all things. Not that Bernanke, who retired from the Fed last year, would know about that. He hasn’t seen the movie. “I read the book, but I like to say I saw the original, so it wasn’t necessary to see the movie,” he says. THE PARADOX OF SHOES

Bernanke has been interested in the Great Depression since his grandmother told him stories about it from her front porch in Charlotte during quiet summer evenings. Her family had been living in Norwich, Conn., where some children went to school in

worn-out shoes or even barefoot because their fathers lost their jobs when the shoe factories closed. That meant their families didn’t have enough money to buy shoes — which presumably would have kept the factories in business and their fathers employed. “Even a small boy could see the paradox,” he says. He grew up in tiny Dillon, S.C., a farming town on the Little Pee Dee River. His mother taught school. His father was a pharmacist in the drugstore his grandfather had opened after moving there from New York City in the wake of the stock-market crash of 1929. President George W. Bush named Bernanke to be a governor on the Fed in 2002, then appointed him to head the White House Council of Economic Advisers in 2005. The next year, Bernanke was back at the Fed, succeeding Alan Greenspan as chairman. President Obama appointed him to a second four-year term as chairman in 2010. Bernanke still lives on Capitol Hill with his wife, Anna. He walks the dog, does crossword puzzles and reads three or four books a week on his Kindle. His scholarly interest in the forces that caused and prolonged the Great Depression wasn’t the reason Bush picked him to come to Washington, but it turned out to be serendipitous. “When I became chairman, the first thing I did was ask the staff to dust off the playbooks and see what we had and what the plan-

ning was,” he said in an interview at the Brookings Institution, the Washington think tank where he is now a distinguished fellow. He wrote the memoir by collecting and reviewing the emails he sent and received during the crisis, perhaps 150 of them a day. (As chairman, he used a Fed email account but with a pseudonym, Edward Quince, a name that was then listed in the Fed phone book as a member of the security team.) “Looking back on the financial crisis and the period after the crisis, it was a very chaotic period. ... But I guess in the end we obviously did stabilize the system and the U.S. economy is now growing,” he said. The decision about whether to prosecute individuals

wasn’t up to him. “The Department of Justice and others are responsible for that,” he says. What the Fed was focused on was trying to prevent the Great Recession from turning into another Great Depression. His academic studies concluded that the Fed’s failure to act more decisively worsened that crisis nine decades ago. This time, he was determined take any steps he could to try to keep a devastating downturn from getting worse. One early step, in 2008, was to push interest rates down to nearly zero — which is where they have stayed since. The current Fed, led by Janet Yellen, last month pulled back from indications it was ready to begin raising them again. Is it time to raise them? “You know, the last thing I want to do is second-guessing Janet Yellen.” ‘HE WON’T SWING’

Bernanke loves baseball for the same reason he chose economics as his profession: the power and clarity of numbers. “The numbers are so concrete,” he says in a conversation in the Nats press box before a game against the Miami Marlins last month. “In baseball, you’ve got all the data going back to the 1880s for all the players, and if you understand how to use numbers, it makes it come alive.” Wearing jeans and a worn blue-gray Nats cap, he doesn’t shout and rarely cheers, but he does politely clap when a Nats

IN BRIEF JASON CHAFFETZ JOINS RACE FOR HOUSE SPEAKER

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, announced Sunday that he is running for speaker of the House, complicating the path for Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, RCalif., who was expected to succeed Speaker John Boehner. Boehner, of Ohio, is stepping down at the end of the month. Chaffetz, who chairs the House Oversight & Government Reform Committee, said on Fox News Sunday that he does not believe McCarthy can get the 218 votes he needs to be elected speaker because “nearly 50 people and a growing number” in the GOP caucus will not support him. Chaffetz said he has been recruited from within the party to run. McCarthy is viewed as the current favorite of the Republican caucus, which will vote in a closed-door meeting Thursday. — Paul Singer SEARCH CONTINUES FOR MISSING CARGO SHIP

DOGS ON A CATWALK

player gets a hit. “He won’t swing,” Bernanke predicts as Yunel Escobar faces a 3-2 count. Escobar, who led the league in batting into double plays, has been excoriated in blogs in recent days for doing just that even though star hitter Bryce Harper would have been up next. This time, as predicted, Escobar doesn’t swing and gets a walk. “It’s time for Harper to get something,” Bernanke says in the next inning. Done: He hits a home run. In 2012, Bernanke was invited to watch the Washington Nationals’ practice before a game. He was surprised when right-fielder Jayson Werth asked him, “So what’s the scoop on quantitative easing?” the Fed’s effort to boost the economy by pumping in new money. Bernanke writes, “Then I recalled that Werth was playing under a seven-year, $126 million contract, which gave him some interest in financial matters.” At this game, as Werth heads into the dugout after the top of the first inning, he gives Bernanke a tip of his cap. Bernanke beams. Oh, and the Nats won, 5-2. Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

Death toll rises in attack on hospital NATO, Pentagon probe incident that killed 22; Doctors Without Borders exits city

Jane Onyanga-Omara and John Bacon USA TODAY

Doctors Without Borders withdrew Sunday from the northern Afghan city of Kunduz and said the death toll rose to 22 from a U.S. airstrike that destroyed its hospital early Saturday. U.S. and NATO officials promised a swift investigation, and controversy quickly swirled. The Pentagon issued a statement saying U.S. forces were conducting an airstrike in Kunduz against “insurgents who were directly firing upon U.S. servicemembers advising and assisting Afghan Security Forces.” The statement said the strike took place “in the vicinity” of the Doctors Without Borders hospital. Afghanistan Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqi has said that as many as 15 insurgents were shooting from the hospital. Kate Stegeman, a spokesper-

son for Doctors Without Borders, denied the claim. The compound gate was closed all night, Stegeman said, and “only staff, patients and caretakers were inside when bombing occurred.” The Taliban, in a statement, also said none of its fighters were there at the time of the airstrike. NATO has directed a preliminary multinational investigation, and a report could be issued within days, the Pentagon said. The U.S. military also is conducting a probe, the statement said. U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter, traveling in Spain, promised a full and transparent investigation, telling reporters that the situation is “confused and complicated” now, the AP reported. Stegeman said 12 hospital staff and 10 patients were killed in the attack. She said the hospital is no longer functional and some staff were working in two other health facilities in other cities where some of the wounded were sent. Dozens of people were injured.

President Obama expressed his “deepest condolences” to those who were killed and injured and promised a thorough investigation. Tweeting to Obama and the Defense Department on Sunday, Doctors Without Borders executive director Jason Cone wrote: “condolences won’t bring back 12 @MSF dead colleagues. We need answers & independent investigation.” Doctors Without Borders said the hospital was hit several times

during “sustained bombing.” Its president called it a “grave violation of international humanitarian law,” and the United Nation’s top human rights official said it may prove to be a war crime. The Taliban seized the besieged city of 300,000 last week but gave back some ground when government forces swept back into the area. Fighting has continued, and the city has struggled to maintain basic services. The office of Gen. John Campbell, commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, said the strike was conducted against insurgents firing on U.S. servicemembers, who have been assisting Afghan security forces in their effort to clear the area of insurgents. “While we work to thoroughly examine the incident and determine what happened, my thoughts and prayers are with those affected,” Campbell said. “As always, we will take all reasonable steps to protect civilians from harm.”

FBI PROFILERS TO HELP FIND SHOOTER’S MOTIVE Reports: Gunman gave items to ‘the one who is going to survive’ Trevor Hughes USA TODAY

ROSEBURG, ORE .

As many residents headed to church on a cool, clear Sunday morning, three days after a shooting at the community college here left nine dead plus the gunman, FBI profilers are beginning their efforts to help explain the shooter’s actions. The gunman, Chris Mercer, 26, opened fire inside a classroom at Umpqua Community College shortly after 10:30 a.m. Thursday, authorities said. The gunman killed eight of his classmates and their instructor and wounded nine others before he committed suicide while exchanging gunfire

with police at the scene. Douglas County Sheriff John Hanlin said the FBI’s Behavior Analysis Team will assist investigators in analyzing writings, documents and digital media seized from several locations, including the shooter’s apartment about a mile from the college. Authorities say the gunman had access to 14 guns, although he carried only four of them during the shooting. “Primarily what we want to do is gain an understanding,” Hanlin said. Victims’ families, he said, “deserve to know the answers.” Following the Aurora movie theater shooting in Colorado three years ago, prosecutors rejected a plea-bargain offer by that shooter on grounds that a trial would flesh out his motivations. Hanlin, speaking to reporters Friday afternoon, declined to discuss specific items collected by investigators or to respond to

media reports that the gunman handed items or some kind of manifesto to a fellow student before opening fire. Bonnie Schaan, the mother of Cheyeanne Fitzgerald, 16, who was wounded, said her daughter told her the gunman gave someone an envelope and told him to go to a corner of the classroom, the Associated Press reported. Mercer said the person “ ‘was going to be the lucky one,’ ” Schaan told reporters outside a hospital where her daughter’s kidney was removed after she was shot, the AP said. Relatives of other survivors also said Mercer gave something to a student in the class. Randy Scroggins, a pastor whose daughter Lacey, 18, escaped without physical injuries, said she told him the gunman said to a student: “ ‘Don’t worry, you’re the one who is going to survive,’ ” the AP said. Mercer then told the student that inside the shooter’s backpack was “all the information that you’ll need, give it to the police,” Scroggins said, citing the account by his daughter. As has become his custom, Hanlin refuses to speak the shooter’s name, a decision that helped spark a debate about the media’s potential complicity in mass shootings by angry young men seeking glory.

At least 16 killed in French Riviera flash floods More than 6 inches of rain fell in two hours Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

At least 16 people died when storms caused severe flooding on the French Riviera, President François Hollande said Sunday. Victims were found dead in the towns of Cannes, Biot, Golfe-Juan and Mandelieu-la-Napoule in the southeast part of the country, following severe weather Saturday night, Hollande’s office said. The dead included people trapped in a parking lot, a camp-

site and a retirement home, Interior Ministry spokesman Pierre-Henry Brandet said. Helicopters searched for victims Sunday, and 27,000 homes had no electricity, the ministry said. Three people drowned in the retirement home after a river burst its banks, and five are thought to have died when they tried to park their cars, Agence France-Presse reported. Another three people drowned when their car got stuck in a tunnel, according to the news agency. Hollande arrived Sunday in Nice with Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve. They visited the retirement home in Biot and met with emergency workers. “It’s not

over,” Hollande told reporters. “The president expressed the solidarity of the nation in the wake of these tragic events,” the statement from his office said. Cannes Mayor Davis Lisnard said some cars were carried away into the sea. “We have rescued a lot of people, and we must now be vigilant against looting,” he added, according to AFP. Pope Francis offered prayers for the victims during his weekly blessing from St. Peter’s Square. Local radio France Bleu-Azur reported that more than 6.7 inches of rain fell in the Cannes area in just two hours. Forecasters said that the worst of the storms has passed.

Pope Francis on Sunday opened a three-week meeting of world bishops divided over divorce, homosexuality and cohabitation by reaffirming marriage as a sacred bond between a man and woman, while also gently saying the church should “seek out and care for hurting couples.” Following on the heels of the pope’s 10-day trip to Cuba and the United States, Francis is overseeing this annual session of 270 bishops, known as a synod, which could play an instrumental role in the future of his reform-minded papacy and the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics. Crucial topics include divorced couples and those who have remarried in a civil service and whether they will be allowed to receive Communion. Francis told the bishops meeting in Vatican City that when marriages fail, the church “should be a ‘field hospital’ with doors wide open to whoever knocks in search of help and support.” But he also reaffirmed that the church remain steadfast in “defending the unity and indissolubility of the conjugal bond,” adding that it should “not be changed by passing fads or popular opinions.”

GIUSEPPE LAMI, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

Pope Francis celebrates the opening Mass of the XVI Ordinary Meeting of the Synod of Bishops on Sunday at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City.

Francis revitalized the synod process after he was named pope two years ago to allow input from bishops on church governance. The first synod last year ended without consensus on issues of accepting gay men and lesbians, the divorced or civilly remarried Catholics. Heated debate over these issues remain. Last week, Kentucky County clerk Kim Davis, who spent six days in jail for refusing to issue marriage licenses to gay couples, revealed she met with Francis at the Vatican Embassy during his visit to Washington. The Vatican said Friday that the meeting was not intended as a show of support for her cause. On Saturday, a mid-level Vatican official, Monsignor Krzysztof Charamsa, said he was gay, has a boyfriend and called on the synod to be more accepting of homosexuals. He was promptly fired by the Vatican.

A robotics competition at Perry Meridian High School over the weekend had one unusual rule: It was for girls only. To be fair, boys were allowed to work in the pit at the inaugural IndyRAGE — it stands for Robotics All Girls Event — but the robots’ drive teams had to be all female. Fourteen teams competed with robots playing the Recycle Rush game in which the robots are directed to stack recycling totes and containers on a scoring platform to win points. It’s an off-season event for FIRST Robotics Competition teams. FIRST, or For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology, offers a variety of programs around the world to inspire young people to enter STEM fields. Among other things, FIRST aims to make science, technology, engineering and math as exciting for kids as sports are today. IndyRAGE was hosted by the Perry Meridian robotics team, Cyber Blue Robotics, as a way to encourage girls on robotics teams around the Midwest to take a more active role in the leadership of their teams.

Deal could double Fundation’s revenue Kaja Whitehouse @kajawhitehouse USA TODAY

In a deal that highlights the rising influence of Silicon Valley on finance, Regions Financial, which operates bank branches across 16 states, plans to partner with lending start-up Fundation to provide online loans to small businesses. The partnership, due to be announced Monday, will give the publicly traded Regions, valued at $11 billion, a new online banking

presence. It will give Fundation access to Regions’ small-business customers in a deal that could double the start-up’s revenue. “We expect it will at least double (loan) originations and revenue” as a result of the partnership, CEO Sam Graziano told USA TODAY. He declined to provide revenue numbers for the privately held company, which is backed by private equity firm Garrison Investment Group. The union comes as banks of all sizes — including Wall Street behemoth Goldman Sachs — look for ways to compete with the rise of online lenders — an increasingly crowded field that now includes LendingClub, OnDeck,

Fundation and FundingCircle. Online lenders present a threat to traditional banking because they face less cost and regulation. They can also provide loan guarantees faster than brick-andmortar lenders. Goldman Sachs predicts that the emerging financial technology industry, dubbed fintech, threatens to grab $4.7 trillion in revenue and $470 billion in profits from traditional Wall Street firms. That includes not just lending but also payment transactions and even investment advice. It’s not just talk, either. Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein in May told staff that the behemoth investment bank is working on its

own online lending product for consumers. “The firm has identified digitally led banking services to consumers and small businesses as an area of opportunity,” Blankfein’s letter said. For Regions, the quest to find an online partner started last year after it conducted a survey of customers and found close to 20% “were using online alternatives other than Regions,” said Joe DiNicolantonio, head of Regions business banking unit. After talking with dozens of start-ups, Regions settled on Fundation, which underwrites its own loans, as opposed to LendingClub, which matches borrowers to lenders.

The 2012 Nissan Versa Sedan is part of latest recall.

NISSAN RECALLS OVER 200K VERSAS TO FIX SUSPENSION Nissan is recalling 218,019 Versa subcompacts in the U.S. because road salt can corrode the metal springs in front, causing them to break. If the coil springs fail, they can collapse and puncture the front tires. That scenario could cause the drivers of 2007 to 2012 Versas to lose control, resulting in a crash, Nissan tells the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a filing. Because the recall is cold-weather-related, it applies only to cars bought or driven in certain states, mostly in the upper Midwest and Northeast. Nissan plans to fix the problem by replacing both of the front springs. The recall applies only to cars that were registered in 22 states and Washington. FRIDAY MARKETS INDEX

Great Scott! Pepsi honors ‘Back to the Future’ Eli Blumenthal @eliblumenthal USA TODAY

Pepsi is going “back to the future” with a new promotion. Fans of the iconic film trilogy will no doubt remember Marty McFly walking into a diner to purchase a Pepsi in Back to the Future II and walked out with a Pepsi Perfect. While Pepsi isn’t launching a new brand, it is releasing a new limited edition bottle on Oct. 21 to let fans have their own Pepsi Perfect bottle. “Fans have always been a little crazy about it,” says Lou Arbetter, PepsiCo’s senior director of marketing, about the scene in the film where a Pepsi Perfect is delivered to Michael J. Fox’s character through a futuristic pneumatic tube, “and so we wanted to take advantage of the fact that Marty traveled to the future, to this month, and wanted to actually come out with the product.”

NEW YORK

PEPSI

In Back to the Future II, above, Michael J. Fox’s character Marty McFly buys a Pepsi Perfect. The collectible bottle, left, will include Pepsi Made with Real Sugar. The bottle is a limited edition collectible — Pepsi is planning on only making a run of 6,500 bottles — and will be sold only while supplies last. Those looking to purchase the bottle can

do so for $20.15, not quite as pricey as the $50 that Christopher Lloyd’s Doc Brown gave Marty in the film. The bottle will be sold online, though Pepsi recommends fans check out the company’s social media pages closer to the

Oct. 21 launch date to know exactly where they can purchase it. While it won’t be coming out with a new Pepsi Perfect flavor, there will be real, more traditional Pepsi Made with Real Sugar inside for fans to drink out of the 16.9ounce bottle. “We’re fans of this popular trilogy, and just generally, if you work at Pepsi, you’re fans of pop culture. The brand has made its mark in pop culture frankly since Michael Jackson moonwalked. We’ve been dancing in and around pop culture for a while,” says Arbetter, “so we look at this as another opportunity to have a little bit of fun.” Pepsi will also be distributing 1,500 Pepsi Perfect bottles ahead of its general release during New York Comic Con this week to fans dressed as Marty, says Arbetter. Pepsi is part of a growing list of companies joining in on the fun of the original film’s 30th anniversary. In January, Nike announced that they would be releasing a version of its self-lacing Nike Mag shoes that were featured in Back to the Future II later this year.

WHEN DATA DISASTER STRIKES Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

Routes can be altered to avoid turbulence John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

It happened to Susan Solovic on a recent flight. As her seatmate stood to go to the bathroom, she knocked a soda on Solovic’s laptop. “I’m sure it will be fine,” she said to herself. But when she powered up the computer, the screen remained stubbornly blank. “Nothing,” she says. “I mean nothing.” Solovic, an author ON TRAVEL based in New York, EVERY is just one of many MONDAY victims of data loss on the road — losses that seem to be getting worse but are almost always preventable. “I was mortified,” said Solovic, who lost 150 pages of her book manuscript. And scared straight: After her data loss, she signed up for a subscription to Carbonite, a service that automatically backs up her laptop’s data when she’s connected to the Internet. Slightly more than 1 in 5 consumers don’t save their data in a safe place, according to a survey by Acronis, a company that provides backup systems. Yet 42% of those polled valued the data on their devices at more than $1,000. In other words, we think our data are worth something, but not enough to invest in a backup system. Tsk, tsk. Not that backup systems are completely reliable. Jo Young, an actress who lives in New York, remembers a motorcycle ride back from the beach on the back of a friend’s motorcycle. Her iPhone was safely tucked in a beach bag, which was securely fastened to the back of the motorcycle — or so she thought. “When I got off the bike, my bags were gone,” she says. “They had flown off after hitting one of the oh-too-numerous road bumps without our knowledge. I was devastated.” She had saved the contents of her iPhone to the cloud, but not all of it. “They were able to upload most of my contacts, but none of my texts and only the last 30 photos I had taken. I had some great memories in those photos.” I know what it feels like to lose data while you’re traveling. My worst loss: This summer, my server melted down while I was on a two-month road trip across North America. Our backup systems also failed, and we had to restore from a version of my consumer advocacy blog that was three months old. Ouch! There’s a feeling you get when you lose data. It’s a combination of helplessness and anger. But when you’re out of the office, and unable to do anything except send a series of increasingly ur-

Tips for preventing data loss uBack up your digital photos and files before you leave. Before taking off, use an online data recovery solution or external hard drive to make sure all of those great images – and any other important files — are fully backed up, advises Mohamad Ali, CEO of Carbonite, an online data recovery solution. “You don’t want to risk losing them if your laptop is lost or stolen while traveling,” he says. uBYOB. Bring your own backup, says David Zimmerman, CEO of LC Technology International, a data recovery service. “Consider bringing along a lightweight external hard drive,” he says. “These serve as a more durable backup for your files compared to the SD cards and they are quite inexpensive compared to how much they store.” Some external drives even feature automatic cloud updating that pushes your files to a remote server. uHave a plan “B.” Know where your backed-up data is kept and how to recover it quickly. One of the safest bets is a cloud-based backup system, says Mark Jennings, the director of network sales for SymQuest, an information systems provider. “They ensure critical data and applications are backed up often and easily restored, reducing downtime, and getting you up running in the event of loss,” he says. gent emails to your IT guy back in the office, that sentiment drifts toward despair. It almost feels as if part of you is gone. It’s awful. If you carry a phone or a computer, you’ll probably deal with data loss sooner or later, predicts Ted Hulsy, a vice president at eFolder, a company that specializes in data backup and disaster recovery. “Unfortunately, we may

even see a higher incidence of data loss because the number of devices that data resides on is increasing, and the number of employees that decide to work remotely is also increasing,” he adds. But you don’t have to become a victim. If you travel, you’ll lose data eventually. Yes, even the experts lose data. David Grubb, who runs CMIT Solutions of Tribeca, a company that provides backup services, regularly commutes between New York and London. On one of his trips, he lost a bag that contained his cellphone. “This included personal data, plans I developed for a new business, personal photos and all my key contacts,” he says. The handset was lost, but he’d taken the precaution of backing the information in the device to the cloud and was able to retrieve all his contacts and other data from it. Lesson learned? Keep your eye on your belongings — and “always, always take a proactive approach to backing up, rather than deal with the consequences afterward,” he says. In a world where we’re more dependent on our devices than ever, data backups shouldn’t be an afterthought. It should be one of the first things you consider before you take off. If you don’t, you could lose your photos, your manuscript — or your entire business.

In a world where we’re more dependent on our devices than ever, data backups shouldn’t be an afterthought.

Q: What do pilots do to avoid turbulence? Are there routes in the continental U.S. that offer little to no turbulence? — Submitted by reader Kevin S., Montclair, N.J. A: Pilots receive a weather briefing before flights that includes known or forecast turbulence. The route of the flight is adjusted to avoid the area. Once airborne, pilots listen for reports of ASK THE turbulence from CAPTAIN other flights. AirEVERY traffic controllers ofMONDAY ten advise pilots if an altitude has been reported to be choppy. Adjusting altitude can often improve the ride if it is bumpy. Turbulence moves as weather patterns change, making it impossible to have one route or area that is turbulence-free all year. Q: I have heard that flying from London to Singapore is one of the worst routes for turbulence. Is this true? — Vicky, Essex, U.K. A: There are several routes where turbulence is more common than others. I would not say that London to Singapore is the leading one. In places where high gusty wind is common, you often find turbulence. One notable example is flying into Wellington, New Zealand. Q: Is there more turbulence when flying across the Pacific than the Atlantic? Are there stretches where pilots don’t have radio contact and can’t divert around storms? — Brett, Phoenix A: I do not know of a study showing greater turbulence over the Pacific than the Atlantic. Pilots on modern aircraft have onboard weather radar, making deviation around storms possible anywhere. Q: I have heard that to take advantage of a jet stream tailwind, the lower-left quadrant (in the direction of air flow) of a cross section produces a turbulent ride. Is there any way to know which quadrant a plane is entering? — Roger Schafer, Yorba Linda, Calif. A: No, the stronger turbulence is on the cold/low-pressure side of the jet stream, the north side in North America. It is not possible to tell the airplane position in relation to the jet stream because the jet stream moves. Forecast position and actual position can be significantly different.

A new report released by NYU’s School of Professional Studies projects that the U.S. lodging industry will spend a record $6.4 billion on capital expenditures this year, and upgrading Internet service is often one of the top priorities. “It is one of the more common capital expenditures,” says Bjorn Hanson, the NYU clinical professor who authored the study, adding that the typical amount spent by a hotel to improve Internet service is $40,000. And while some hotels, particularly more expensive, luxury properties, tend to charge for Internet access, the upgrades taking place throughout the industry are not about fees but keeping customers happy. “The investment has been more about customer satisfaction than any enhancing of revenue,” Hanson says. “Whether people

are paying for it or not, if they can’t get access or keep getting bounced off, it’s a ‘dissatisfier.’ ” Many Marriott hotels are bolstering Internet offerings by improving access points, routers and wiring of the local area network around the individual property, says John Wolf, a Marriott spokesman. Those upgrades help improve Internet speed and reliability. At Starwood, more than 50% of guests were connecting to hotel Wi-Fi as of 2014, and up to 75% of the devices being used to tap into the Internet are mobile. To meet the demand, the company has boosted standards for its hotels each of the past three years to make Wi-Fi offerings more robust. Its properties are augmenting or replacing Wi-Fi equipment and working with their ISPs to expand bandwith. Starwood is also requiring all of its hotels to bring in independent third parties to conduct surveys and confirm that the property’s Wi-Fi adheres to Starwood’s requirements. “It’s pretty simple,” says Brennan Gildersleeve, Starwood’s vice president of brand and guest technology. “More and more guests are connecting more and more devices all while enjoying media-rich content. Our hotels are continually investing in Wi-Fi

improvements to satisfy this demand.” Hilton Hotels have also been boosting their Wi-Fi technology. “Wi-Fi is the most widely used on-property amenity according to our customer satisfaction data,” says Jim Holthouser, executive vice president, global brands, Hilton Worldwide. “We give guests the ability to choose how they want to connect during their stay, and we’ve built the infrastructure to provide an easy and consistent online experience at our hotels globally.” At some hotels, complimentary Wi-Fi is offered as a perk to the most loyal guests. For instance, though certain

hotel families under the Starwood brand, like Element and St. Regis, offer free Internet access to all guests, and all hotels have certain spaces that are free hot spots, other properties within the Starwood family provide complimentary access specifically to members of Starwood’s loyalty program who book directly through hotel channels. Similarly, members of Hilton HHonors, the brand’s loyalty program, who reserve a room through Hilton or associated channels, get complimentary WiFi at Hilton hotels worldwide. “Guests may choose between two different Internet speeds,” Holthouser says, “standard Internet access, suitable for those guests looking to send emails or browse the Web, and premium access, which provides faster speeds to stream video or enjoy other bandwidth-intensive applications.’’ In the Marriott family of hotels, the JW Marriott Essex House in Manhattan has seen the benefits of its Internet investment firsthand. “When the opportunity to have streaming Netflix, Hulu, Crackle and Pandora arose earlier this year,” says Kathleen Duffy, a spokeswoman for Marriott International, “the hotel was already in place with heightened bandwidth.”

Chvrches never thought they’d be “that” band. You know, the kind whose fans sing B-sides back to them at their shows and flood their social media with artwork and cat memes. But since they jolted music blogs with galvanic anthems Lies and The Mother We Share in 2012, the Scottish synth-pop trio (pronounced “churches,” with a replacement “v” for Google searches) has watched its audience steadily grow: selling nearly 1 million copies worldwide of 2013 debut The Bones of What You Believe, racking up more than 150 million Spotify streams, and kicking off yet another U.S. tour in New York this week. Meeting people after shows, “I’m a total crier,” says frontwoman Lauren Mayberry, 27. “When they’re emotional and telling you what a song meant to them, it just makes you think about bands that are that for you. It’s really surreal to be that person for someone. ... I don’t know how long we’ll get to do that for, so I try to remind myself of these things.” Chvrches will be sticking

Frontwoman Mayberry, 27, is the band’s songwriter. around for at least a little while longer, having just released sophomore album Every Open Eye. Unlike Bones, which was recorded sporadically after Mayberry formed the band with Iain Cook, 40, and Martin Doherty, 32, in 2011, they went into Eye with the intent of making an album, which gave the louder, glossier music a more cohesive feel. “I can hear that this time when I listen to it — it’s more of a record,” Mayberry says. “Other than that, the approach was pretty similar. At this point, we know a lot better what the band is and what we want it to be, and we wouldn’t have had that without having

been on the road for so long.” Groundwork for Eye started on tour — Mayberry, the band’s songwriter, scrawling words and phrases in a notepad; Cook and Doherty, noodling around with production on their laptops — “but that was more a product of itchy feet about having not written anything for a long time, rather than trying to start an album,” Mayberry says. Instead, they waited until they returned home to Glasgow last winter before diving in, writing and recording in the same converted three-bedroom flat where Bones was born. The first song recorded was the glimmering Never Ending Circles,

but it was the teetering, stadiumready Clearest Blue midway through the writing process that “kind of epitomized what we were trying to do,” Mayberry says. While Bones took a cue from the synthfueled hooks of Depeche Mode and Eurythmics, Martin and Doherty looked to Quincy Jones’ minimal production on ’80s classics such as Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean this go-round. “They were keen to see how many elements you can take away and if it’s better for the song,” Mayberry says. Even as Eye propels them closer to pop stardom, Chvrches have not sacrificed their core values as a band. While some tried to position Mayberry as the attractive, young “star” early in the group’s career, she still prefers to do photo shoots and interviews with Cook and Doherty. “We’re in a place where I can say, hand on heart, that we stand behind every decision we’ve made,” she says.

Matt Damon and The Martian shot into a whole different galaxy at the box office, rocketing to a $55 million opening weekend, according to studio estimates. The Ridley Scott-directed film about an astronaut stranded on Mars came close to matching the record opening for October: Gravity, with Sandra Bullock as an astronaut in peril, opened with $55.8 million in 2013. The brainy, science-filled Martian script was a hit with critics and moviegoers alike, scoring a 94% critical approval rating on aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes and receiving an A from audiences at CinemaScore. Distributor 20th Century Fox also received a major marketing bonus with ground-breaking science news last week that NASA had discovered evidence of recent flowing water on Mars. “That’s a studio executive’s dream to have that kind of positive news associated with your

The Martian, starring Matt Damon, was a critical success, too. movie,” says Paul Dergarabedian, senior box-office analyst for Rentrak. “The math and science crowd has it going on right now at the movies — science is positively cool. The Martian is not a sequel, but it still had this massive opening.” Monster-filled Hotel Transylvania 2 soared on the family entertainment front with a second-place finish of $33 million, one week after taking the box-

office crown. The animated film, starring Adam Sandler as Dracula, has an impressive total of $90.5 million in less than two weeks of release. Sicario, Denis Villeneuve’s look at the brutal of world of drug trafficking with Emily Blunt, Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin, continued to expand nationwide, taking third with $12.1 million ($15.1 million total). “Sicario will hold up well over

the next couple of weeks,” says Phil Contrino, lead analyst for BoxOffice.com, who pronounced it a “solid hit.” “Sicario will definitely be in the awards conversation this fall.” Nancy Meyers’ The Intern, the May-December buddy film starring Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro, took fourth in its second weekend, earning $11.6 million ($36.5 million total). Young-adult adaptation Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials rounded out the top five with $7.7 million ($63.2 million total). The Walk, with Joseph Gordon-Levitt depicting Philippe Petit’s 1974 high-wire walk between the World Trade Center towers, made its IMAX debut in 448 locations, taking in a solid $1.6 million in limited release. The Robert Zemeckis-directed movie lost some business to The Martian, Contrino says. “At the end of the day, it’s two spectacle movies going head-tohead,” he says. “One has got to win and it’s pretty clear which one is: The Martian.” Final numbers are expected Monday.

Diallo, Bragg go 1-2 in hype

NWSL SOCCER

‘Crazy ride’

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Highly acclaimed Cheick Diallo, who enters college as the No. 5-rated player in the recruiting Class of 2015 by Rivals.com, figures to be a lock for Big 12 preseason freshman-of-the-year honors. He might not be the only Kansas University freshman to garner votes for the honor, however, especially if the fact he has yet to be cleared for participation in games (by the NCAA Eligibility Center) is taken into consideration. Hot on his heels in the hype department is fellow forward Carlton Bragg, Rivals.com’s No. 21-rated player in the Class of ’15, who has Bragg impressed since arriving on campus last June. After Diallo and Bragg, the next highest-rated incoming player in the league is Texas’ Kerwin Roach, ranked No. 34 by Rivals. Jawun Evans of Oklahoma State is No. 36, Eric Davis of Texas No. 59, Tevin Mack of Texas No. 61, Esa Ahmad of West Virginia No. 72 and King McClure of Baylor No. 78. Those are the only top-100 prospects represented on rosters of the 10 league teams. “Carlton is a great kid. He works hard. He’s going to be a great player,” KU senior forward Perry Ellis said of the 6-foot-9 Cleveland native. “He’s definitely a real skilled player. He gets after it and listens to coach, soaks up what coach is telling him. He’s definitely a key coming in as a freshman.” Coach Bill Self boasted a bit about Bragg, who averaged 21.3 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.0 blocks his senior year at state champion Villa Angela-St. Joseph High, at Thursday’s KU Media Day.

FC KANSAS CITY’S CAROLINE KASTOR (23) MAKES A MOVE against the Boston Breakers in this photo from July 9 in Allston, Massachusetts. Kastor played at Kansas University, sat out a year, then joined the Blues this season — just in time to win the National Women’s Soccer League championship.

KU grad Kastor relishes title By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

After helping FC Kansas City win its second straight National Women’s Soccer League championship Thursday against the Seattle Reign, former Kansas University forward Caroline Kastor has had time the past few days to reflect on her first professional season. Nothing came easy for Kastor in her rookie season. The former KU star — tied for second on Kansas’ all-time scoring list with 26 goals — was added to FCKC’s roster three games into the season as an amateur call-up and signed with the team on July 13. “It’s kind of a tough situation to be a call-up because

you’re not being paid. I reside in Lawrence because that’s where school and work are,” said Kastor, who is completing her master’s degree at KU. “I was working and going to school, so I was definitely very busy.” Kastor appeared in eight games and logged 161 minutes with the Blues, including one start against the Boston Barriers just four days before the team offered her a contract for the remainder of the season. The contract offer came as even more of a surprise to the 23-year-old because four United States women’s national team members — Becky Sauerbrunn, Amy Rodriguez, Heather O’Reilly and Lauren Holiday — were about to return to FCKC’s roster after the World Cup.

“It was a little bit of a crazy ride. It got toward the end of July, and the national players were coming back, so I knew that that call-up period was ending,” Kastor said. “I just didn’t know what that meant because I was pretty sure they weren’t allowed to have call-ups when they returned. Right before that game that they came back, I was offered a contract, so obviously it ended really well for me.” Although the return of the four national-team members pushed Kastor further down the bench and out of the regular sub role she had earned, the time spent on the practice field with some the world’s best players greatly benefited the FCKC rookie.

Bengals upend Chiefs Cincinnati (ap) — Cairo Santos kicked a club-record seven field goals. Alex Smith was sacked five more times. It was a bad combination for the Chiefs, who can’t quite do enough to get a win. Andy Dalton threw a 55yard touchdown pass on the run — the type of throw he’s rarely made in the past — and the Cincinnati Bengals remained unbeaten with a 36-21 victory over Kansas City on Sunday. It was another rough day all around for the Chiefs (13). Smith was under heavy pressure, Santos was on the field a lot, and the defense couldn’t keep up with another one of the NFL’s top passers. “This is a tough time,” guard Ben Grubbs said. “This is not a good feeling.” Smith was 31-of-45 for 386 yards, but was under pressure much of the time. The Chiefs came into the game with an NFL-high 14 sacks allowed and gave up five more. The clincher was tight end Travis Kelce’s fumble after a catch, with the ball returned to the Kansas City five-yard line. Hill scored his second touchdown for a 29-15 lead. “We move the ball when we want to,” Kelce said. “As soon as we get over the 50, we start moving backward. We’ve got to keep moving forward.” Santos connected from 22, 40, 51, 34, 40, 29 and 51 yards, tying the record for the second-most field goals in a game in NFL history. The Chiefs had more total yards (461-445), ran more plays (73-50) and held the ball for nearly 37 minutes, but had to settle for field goals. “It’s always great to go out there and perform well and do your job, but I think I would have been happier if I kicked seven extra points and won the game instead of field goals,” Santos said. The defense also had issues. The Chiefs have been beaten by Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers and Dalton in the past three weeks. In Please see CHIEFS, page 3C

Royals secure home-field advantage

ROYALS, FROM LEFT, PAULO ORLANDO, Jarrod Dyson and Alex Rios celebrate a 6-1 victory over the Twins on Sunday in Minneapolis.

Minneapolis (ap) — Last year, the Kansas City Royals were the October darlings, winning their first eight postseason games to reach the World Series for the first time since before many of their players were born. They won’t be able to surprise anybody this year. They’ll be the favorites to repeat as American League champions. Salvador Perez added to

his career-high home run total, Johnny Cueto pitched five solid innings, and the Royals secured home-field advantage throughout the postseason by beating the Minnesota Twins 6-1 on Sunday. The Royals (95-67) posted their best record since the 1980 team went 97-65, besting the Toronto Blue Jays by two games for the top seed. “I had a lot of confidence

that we were going to do it, because these guys just seem to find a way to accomplish what they set their mind to,” manager Ned Yost said. “We went through that little bit of a rough stretch and got it straightened back out and won our last five games.” The Royals, who had the second-best road record in the AL at 44-37, proved last year that playing an extra game at home isn’t a prereq-

uisite for postseason success. But they’re delighted to be able to start this run at Kauffman Stadium. “It means a lot. We’re built for our ballpark as a team,” first baseman Eric Hosmer said. “What the fans do for us, the way they make the atmosphere there, it makes it tough for opposing teams to come in.” Please see ROYALS, page 2C

Former Kansas University football player Terry Beeson and softball player and coach Tracy Bunge were inducted into the state of Kansas Sports Hall of Fame on Sunday in Wichita. Coffeyville native Beeson was a four-year letterman at linebacker for the Jayhawks and led the team in tackles in both 1975 and 1976.

Perez hit his 21st homer in the third inning, one behind Kendrys Morales and Mike Moustakas for the team lead. Cueto (4-7 with Royals, 11-13 overall) allowed one run on six hits and four walks. The right-hander, whose transition to the AL since a trade from Cincinnati has hardly been smooth, struck out the last two batters to leave the bases loaded in the fourth after giving up an RBI single to Danny Santana. “He’s ready. Everybody’s ready. I think everybody was to the point where they were ready to get the season over so that they could go,” Yost said. Ricky Nolasco (5-2) started for the Twins for the first time since May 31 after a right ankle injury sidelined him for the summer, but he lasted only 22⁄3 innings. Alex Gordon hit an RBI double and Alex Rios followed with a two-run double in the second, sticking Nolasco with a career-worst 6.75 ERA, though he logged only 371⁄3 innings. Max Kepler got his first major-league hit for the Twins (83-79), who stayed in wildcard contention until the nextto-last day on the schedule and enjoyed a winning record for the first time in five years. Despite that, their attendance dipped this year, the product of an eroded season-ticket base. They drew 2,220,054 fans, an average of 27,408 per game. Last year’s average was 27,785. “It’s a better feeling because I think we’re headed in the right direction, but ultimately we’re still disappointed in not making the playoffs,” third baseman Trevor Plouffe said. “We think we had the team to not only make the playoffs but make a push in the playoffs.”

KEVIN HARVICK CELEBRATES WITH CHAMPAGNE in Victory Lane after winning the Sprint Cup race Sunday in Dover, Delaware.

Harvick wins must-win race; Johnson out Dover, Del. — Kevin Harvick dominated a race he had to win to advance to the second round of NASCAR’s playoffs, while six-time champion Jimmie Johnson was eliminated from the field. Harvick led 354 laps Sunday at Dover International Speedway and earned the third automatic berth in the 12-driver Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field. Harvick was mired in 15th in the standings and had to win to keep his title defense alive. “Never quit. That’s why right here, guys,” Harvick said over the radio as he took the checkered flag. Johnson entered fifth in the standings and, with 10 career wins at Dover, seemed a lock to advance. His No. 48 Chevrolet was forced off the track for 36 laps with a torn rear axle seal and he plummeted in the standings. Jamie McMurray, Paul Menard and Clint Bowyer also were eliminated as the Chase field was sliced from 16 to 12. Dale Earnhardt Jr. tied with McMurray in points and earned the final spot on a tiebreaker. Four more drivers will be eliminated in the next three-race segment that starts next week at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Joe Gibbs Racing drivers Denny Hamlin and Matt Kenseth had already earned berths in the next round with wins in the first two Chase races. Carl Edwards also advanced, along with Joey Logano, Ryan Newman, Kurt Busch, Brad Keselowski, Martin Truex Jr., Jeff Gordon and Kyle Busch.

Meanwhile, No. 2 TCU and No. 3 Baylor edged forward, No. 4 Michigan State slipped and No. 5 Utah and No. 6 Clemson took big jumps. After four top-10 teams lost on Saturday, the rankings were rattled and five teams received first-place votes. The Buckeyes received 38 first-place votes, their fewest this season after beginning as the first unanimous preseason No. 1. TCU has five first-place votes, Baylor received 10, Utah has seven and No. 9 Texas A&M has one. Ohio State was the only team in the top 16 to have the same ranking this week as last. The Buckeyes held off Indiana 34-27 on Saturday and have now been top-ranked 101 times, matching Oklahoma for the most in the 79-year history of the media poll.

Texas CB sorry for retweet Fort Worth, Texas — Texas cornerback Kris Boyd has apologized for being on Twitter during halftime of an embarrassing 50-7 loss to No. 3 TCU, when he passed along a suggestion that he transfer to Texas A&M. The freshman said in a statement issued by the university Sunday that “in no way did I intend to be disrespectful or disloyal” when he retweeted what amounted to an invitation to transfer from an apparent supporter of the Aggies, a rival the Longhorns don’t play anymore.

was Kastor’s first season as a professional, it was Holiday’s last; she officially retired after Thursday’s NWSL championship match. Kastor said “it was an honor to be a part of her (Holiday’s) last game.” “Not only does she make you look good in practice by playing you these amazing throughballs and beautiful passes, but she’s just a phenomenal enthusiast,” Kastor said of Holiday. “She instills confidence in young players and takes them under her wing.” Gaining confidence was something Kastor said was

crucial to starting her career at Kansas as well. Kastor scored three goals during her freshman campaign, but Kansas coach Mark Francis that there was a lot of room for growth in her remaining three years. “He really forced me to kind of wake up,” Kastor said. “He said, ‘Kastor, I think you’re just scratching the surface of the player you can be, like just barely scratching the surface.’” Francis’ hunch was right. Kastor had a breakout junior season, with 11 goals, and racked up several Big 12 and national honors. “I’m thankful for the staff, academic staff, athletic staff and all of my teammates that helped me get to a point where I felt confident and started to delve into my potential as a player.” Kastor said.

Kastor took a year off after completing her collegiate career at KU, but she did not show any rust while fighting for a spot on the FCKC roster. The Kansas alumna’s hard work on the practice and playing fields did not go unnoticed by FC Kansas City coach Vlatko Andonovski and his staff. Kastor’s contract expired at the end of the 2015 campaign, but Andonovski did not want to see her go. “I was just told that they exercised my option for a contract next season. Some things can change, but that’s good,” Kastor said. “I wish I was more schooled in the process since it’s really new to me, so I’ll be working with an agent to make sure that I understand what is going on and all that. But right now, I’m just trying to enjoy the end of the season and the win.”

the past two, Rodgers and Dalton went a combined 41 of 59 for 654 yards with six TD passes. “He extended the plays a couple of times and made big plays from that,” coach Andy Reid said of Dalton. “Big plays can get you there.” The Bengals (4-0) matched the third-best start in franchise history, two wins shy of the club record. They’ve got the look of a team finally capable of not only reaching the playoffs, but winning once they get there. Dalton has been the thread throughout the wins, ascending to the top of the AFC passer list.

Dalton came into the game trailing only Rodgers on the league’s passer rating list. He has been significantly better at throwing on the run this season, and had another out-ofpocket big play at the start of the second half that put the Bengals in control. He eluded the rush and threw a 55-yard touchdown pass to Tate, who made a diving catch at the 10-yard line, got up and dived into the end zone for a 21-12 lead. Dalton got the Bengals off to another fast start. He completed all eight of his passes for 122 yards during a pair of 80-yard touchdown drives.

Notes n Chiefs cornerback Sean Smith returned from a three-game suspension for violating the league’s substance abuse policy and had a tough time covering A.J. Green, who had six catches for 78 yards in the first half. n LB Josh Mauga strained a thigh in the first half, the Chiefs’ only notable injury. n It was Dalton’s second straight 300-yard passing game and the 16th of his career, including one in the playoffs. n Tennessee’s Rob Bironas holds the NFL record with eight field goals in 2007.

KU football still positive By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Saturday afternoon, after his team’s 38-13 loss at Iowa State, Kansas University football coach David Beaty talked about the need for his coaching staff and players to focus less on winning the small battles and more on winning games. That kind of recipe could make for a long eight weeks. Unfortunately for the Jayhawks — 0-4 overall and 0-1 in Big 12 play — the four easiest games on their schedule are behind them, leaving only tough matchups against high-powered Big 12 foes on the schedule from here until the end of November. First up: 11 a.m. Saturday at home vs. Baylor, which opened as a whopping 38-point favorite on Sunday.

During the next couple of months, the Jayhawks actually figure to get younger rather than more experienced, with Beaty and company likely electing to play more young players, both to see what they’ve got now and also to give the youngsters valuable game reps with an eye toward the future. Doing so could lead to more long days and lopsided outcomes, but Beaty said he was prepared to hang tough and keep the positivity flowing. “That’s me,” Beaty said. “That’s how we do it. We put more time than the average (program) probably in what our sideline looks like. What the demeanor looks like. What the body language looks like. What their facial expressions look like. We (say) all the time, ‘Man, that man to the right and

left of you, it’s worth it to keep playing for him.’” For the most part, the players on this KU roster have done a good job of blocking out the results and locking in on individual and team improvement. But as the losses pile up and the Saturdays get scarier, Beaty knows keeping their heads in it could prove to be difficult. “I think it’s a challenge for them,” Beaty said. “We’re the adults in this deal. We’re not necessarily allowed to have bad days. They have bad days. So the more we can keep our emotions in tune and in check … and that’s difficult for grown men. That’s difficult for us. But that’s why I hired the guys I hired. They know how to handle these young men.” KU sophomore Joe Dineen, who despite his

— Kansas coach Bill Self, on freshman Carlton Bragg

“Carlton is one of the most talented big guys we’ve had since I’ve been here. Offensively, obviously, a Marcus Morristype guy. He’s one of those guys that has that type of skill, and it’s going to take time, but certainly I think he has a chance to be a special guy,” Self said. Bragg — he broke his nose at practice right before the start of the World University Games in Korea — contributed 3.8 points and 3.8 boards while logging 11.8 minutes a game for KU’s goldmedal-winning squad. “This summer helped a lot,” Bragg said. “It helps you adapt from high school to college. Playing in the World University Games was a big challenge. My teammates got me ready for that. I just love being here, being a proud Jayhawk. I think it’s going to be a pretty special year.”

the-year honors after averaging 13.8 points and 6.9 boards a game his junior season. “I expect him to be as good as or better than any player in the league. I expect him to play to an All-American-type level,” Self said of the Wichita forward. “I think he’s capable of doing that. I thought last year before he got hurt (knee at end of regular season into postseason), there was about a sixgame stretch where I think he was playing to an All-American level. He seems to be in the best shape of his life. He’s stronger. I don’t mean from a weight standpoint, but you can just tell the way he carries himself, he’s stronger and more confident. I expect him to have a big year, and when I say that, I expect other players to have comparable type years to Perry.” l Ellis had a quote sure Ellis POY?: Ellis figures to please KU fans at last to be a candidate for Big week’s Media Day. 12 preseason player-of“I have a goal to go to
