Kansas gun law may prompt congressional backlash National legislation may force KU to disclose more about weapons policies

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Marti Priest said she was thrilled when her son decided to go out of state for college and enroll at the University of Kansas to study journalism.

A Kansas native and KU graduate herself, Priest,

who now lives near Minneapolis, Minn., said it was exciting to think that her own child wanted to attend the same school she attended.

Priest said they visited the campus in the fall of

2013 and her son, Erik Nelson, quickly fell in love with it. He enrolled in the School of Journalism the next year and is now studying broadcast sports journalism.

But what the two didn’t

know at the time was that only a few months earlier, the Kansas Legislature had enacted a law that would soon require KU and other public post-secondary institutions in the state to allow carrying concealed

weapons on campus.

That, Priest said, is something they wouldn’t learn about for another year.

“His (instructor) came into his class one day and said, ‘I was just in an active shooter training because

Friday, Oct. 14 7 p.m. — Gates open 8 p.m. — Opening act Brett Young takes stage, followed by Brad Paisley

ountry music singer Brad Paisley will make a stop in Lawrence next month for a free outdoor concert on the University of Kansas campus.

Paisley will perform at 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 14, at KU parking lot 94, which is east of Memorial Stadium.

No tickets will be required, and members of the public may attend, according to a news release.

The Lawrence show is one of several stops on Paisley’s national tour of college campuses.

“We are pleased to bring Brad Paisley to our campus so our students can enjoy a concert from an award-winning country music artist right here at KU,” Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little said in the release. “We welcome an opportunity to have this kind of entertainer perform at our university, and I know our KU community will enjoy the show.”

Concert parking opens at 6 p.m., and will be available in the following areas: l Mississippi Street garage l Lots 56, 57, 58, 59 and 65 (west of Memorial Stadium) l Lot 50, 52 (Carruth-O’Leary and Joseph R.

Devices to slow down traffic will soon be installed in several Lawrence neighborhoods, including four debated “trafficcalming circles” that will be constructed in the University Place Neighborhood.

Lawrence city commissioners are scheduled to give final approval for four traffic-calming projects — including the installation of speed humps, speed cushions and traffic circles — today as part of their consent agenda.

In June, commissioners approved traffic-calming projects in the four areas in question, and the neighborhoods then began surveying residents living within a certain range of the proposed devices.

City policy requires that 70 percent of the property owners within 300 feet of each proposed traffic-calming device approve the device and its location, unless directed otherwise by the commission.

The results of those surveys are in, and city staff are recommending that commissioners approve all four projects.

The projects are as follows: l University Place Neighborhood: Four permanent traffic-calming circles, > TRAFFIC, 6A

Leave the sad looks at home, along with: Alcoholic beverages; chairs of any type; blankets; tents; coolers; drones; backpacks or similar bags.

These items will not be allowed at the concert.

Former employees of The Big Biscuit, a Lawrence breakfast spot, say they suffered racial and verbal harassment from the restaurant’s management and that their complaints fell on deaf ears.

find out from the Board of Regents. I didn’t find out from the university. I found out because a professor told my son.

“I don’t think that’s how parents should find out that concealed carry is going to be allowed on their kids’ campus,” she said.

If a federal lawmaker has his way, parents and students will have much more notice in the future.

The Kansas concealed carry law is a driving force behind proposed federal legislation that would require public universities to provide more information about gun laws on campus.

Nelson and Priest said they approached their congressman, Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., to introduce federal legislation that would require schools like KU to provide fuller disclosure of their weapons policies.

The Campus Gun Policy Transparency Act was introduced in the U.S. House Sept. 8. It would require all colleges and universities that receive federal funds to publish their gun policies on their websites and in other promotional material.

It also would require those schools to collect and publish data about gun-related crimes that

— Grace Oliver, former employee of The Big Biscuit

Oliver’s recent claims on social media and declined to comment further on her specific allegations.

In all, The Big Biscuit has 12 locations in Kansas and Missouri.

Slabotsky said the Lawrence location has around 35 employees.

Oliver’s public outcry prompted another former Big Biscuit employee, Annie Landis, to speak out as well.

Landis said she started at the restaurant in February and walked out midshift in May. “After you get over that honeymoon phase of being a new waitress or waiter, things start to change,” she said. “I witnessed a lot of racial, homophobic, sexual comments and aggressive vocabulary. I got a lot more of the aggressive side of things.”

One instance that stuck out in Landis’ mind occurred when she became ill at work. The manager refused to let her leave, even after she threw up in front of staff twice.

“He just wasn’t having it; there was just no way I was going home,” she said.

Fortunately, other servers relieved her from the shift, but the manager soon started treating her worse, she said.

Another time, Landis said she saw the same manager making fun of an American Indian server.

“She’s very into her

culture and proud and he would do mocking Indian sounds, putting a feather above his head and saying he could put smoke signals up,” she said.

Attempts to reach out to the manager for comment were unsuccessful.

Landis said she does not plan to file a charge with the EEOC because she feels other servers were treated worse and she doesn’t want to clog the system with her own complaint.

Oliver said her resignation and subsequent complaint with the EEOC are “on behalf of all the employees who want to leave but can’t because they can’t switch jobs for some reason.”

Since she went public, Oliver said she felt encouraged by other employees speaking out as well and she hopes the EEOC complaint will spur change within the restaurant.

“My goal is to show the management at The Big Biscuit that their actions, whether intended to be harmful or not, do have consequences,” she said.

“And to see if they can issue a meaningful apology to the people who have voiced their displeasure at being employed there.”

Paetzold said the company’s internal investigation is ongoing.

then he stopped harassing me, but I don’t know if it continued with (the other employee) or not.”

Other complaints or concerns about racial or other harassment were not taken seriously, Oliver said.

“Anytime somebody brings it up, they’re told to walk it off or smile more or that it was a joke,” she said.

Jason Paetzold, one of the business’ owners, said he became aware of Oliver’s claims on the weekend of Sept. 10 and launched an investigation.

“This is something we just received,” he said. “I can’t stress how important and carefully we take these.”

Paetzold said he was personally at the restaurant investigating on Thursday.

EEOC Director of Communications Kimberly Smith-Brown declined to comment on Oliver’s case specifically. However, she said complaints are generally filed by those who feel they have been mistreated; then the EEOC investigates and determines whether it will file a lawsuit against a company.

Oliver said when she confronted the manager in question that another manager, Daniel Slabotsky, was nearby and within earshot of the conversation. She said Slabotsky did and said nothing.

Slabotsky said he was only familiar with

are committed on campus, something they are currently not required to do, although they are required to collect and disclose other information about campus safety.

“We put safety ratings on our cars and warning labels on our medications, so it makes sense that we do the same for universities that allow guns on campus,” Ellison said in a news release announcing his bill. “Students have a right to know if their fellow students are bringing guns to class. The Campus Gun Policy Transparency Act allows them and their families to make informed decisions about the safety of their college campuses.”

Kansas lawmakers passed a bill in 2013 that says concealed carry must be allowed in all state and municipal public buildings unless the governing body that owns the buildings provides adequate security at all entrances to prevent anyone from bringing in weapons.

Kansas law generally allows concealed carry by anyone over the age of 21 who is otherwise legally eligible to own a gun. Kansas does not require people to obtain a permit in order to carry concealed weapons.

K-12 public school buildings are exempt from the law, but city, county and university buildings must come into compliance by July 1, 2017.

According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, Kansas is 1 of only 8 states with laws on the books allowing concealed carry on public postsecondary campuses. The others are Colorado, Idaho, Mississippi, Oregon, Texas, Utah and Wisconsin.

Of those states, Kansas and Mississippi are the only ones that don’t require people to obtain a permit to carry concealed weapons.

There are 18 states that ban concealed weapons on their campuses altogether. In 23 states, the decision to ban or allow them is made individually by each institution.

Arkansas and Tennessee allow certain faculty to carry concealed weapons, but not students or the general public.

Officials at the Kansas State Rifle Association, which lobbied in favor of the 2013 Kansas law, as well as the National Rifle Association did not respond Monday to requests for comment about the proposed federal legislation.

Priest said she is pushing for the federal disclosure legislation so that parents and students in the future will have more information when selecting a college.

“If this is the kind of culture that we’re going to live in in the United States, then you’ve got to tell these kids, because they’re

making a big decision, not only about where they’re going to get an education, but where they’re going to spend a significant amount of money,” she said.

Nelson said he was “shocked” to learn of the concealed carry law and is not comfortable with the idea of guns on campus.

Nelson confirmed that’s how they found out about the law.

“It doesn’t make sense to me because if alcohol and nonprescription drugs are not allowed on campus, then an object that can kill a human being in seconds shouldn’t be allowed either,” he said.

Nelson said he has since become active in two campus organizations that are working to oppose the law: Kansans Against Campus Carry and the Kansas Coalition for a Gun-Free Campus.

But he said as a nonresident student, there’s only so much he can do through those groups.

“I’m from Minnesota and I don’t have a vote in the state of Kansas,” he said.

KU officials still have not decided what their specific policy will be, university spokesman Tim Caboni said.

In January, the Kansas Board of Regents adopted a policy that will serve as a guideline for what must be included in each school’s policy. The schools themselves, however, have

until next month to submit their draft proposals to the board, which will act on them during the board’s monthly meetings in October and November.

Caboni said KU’s policy will address such specific issues as whether to allow concealed carry, or install security, at sports facilities such as Allen Fieldhouse and Memorial Stadium.

It will also address how much discretion professors and instructors have in allowing students to carry concealed weapons into meetings in their private offices.

So far, the Campus Gun Policy Transparency Act has gathered only six other cosponsors in the House, all of them Democrats, including the non-voting delegate from Washington, D.C. That means its chances of passing the Republican-controlled House are practically nonexistent.

But Priest said she and her son aren’t waiting for Congress to act before they make a decision.

“If Kansas doesn’t repeal the university portion of the conceal and carry law, my son is coming home,” Priest said.

She said Nelson is currently applying to other schools in states that don’t allow concealed weapons on campus.

County Commission to consider change to staff spending policy Douglas County commissioners at their meeting this week will consider changes to make it easier for department heads to buy goods and services without getting formal bids.

The proposed change would allow county department heads to purchase up to $20,000 of commodities or services without prior approval or bids, according to a memo from Assistant County Administrator Sarah Plinsky. The current cap on such purchases is $7,500.

Department heads also would be able to request approval from County Administrator Craig Weinaug or Plinsky of commodity purchases from $20,001 to $50,000 if a department head has received three informal bids or quotes. The current limit for such purchases are from $7,501 to $20,000.

The other purchasing changes Plinsky highlighted would add a section listing expenditures that cannot be bid, such as utilities, and another section listing expenditures subject to federal award requirements and financial policies. Another policy would give staff more flexibility to sell, recycle and salvage outdated equipment and property.

The proposed changes come after Lawrence city commissioners earlier this month approved a new policy that eliminates the requirement for bidding on certain city purchases that cost less than $50,000.

ECM banner supporting Black Lives Matter reported stolen

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

One of Ecumenical Campus Ministries’ two banners in support of the Black Lives Matter movement has been reported stolen, less than a month after the organization hung them outside its building, 1204 Oread Ave. Kim Brook, administrator for ECM, said a witness called her Monday morning to speak about the theft, which they said

happened Saturday.

“They were walking by with some friends and saw some people messing around with the sign, maybe around five people in a black Jeep or SUV,” she said. “And they took the sign and they were laughing.”

Fortunately the witness took down the vehicle’s license plate number, Brook said.

After hearing about the theft, Brook said she called police and filed a report. The group also posted information about the

theft to social media.

Around two weeks ago the banner was vandalized and torn down, Brook said. But even then it was left at the scene.

When something like this happens, Brook said, it damages the spirit of the movement.

“It affects the spirit of justice, the spirit of moving forward,” she said. “It’s an obvious sign that there is a problem in our communities.”

The banners were unfurled on Aug. 28 as a reminder for all

to challenge societal norms and to combat the ongoing oppression of minorities, Rev. Jill Jarvis of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Lawrence said at the unveiling.

Brook said she wasn’t surprised that the banner was stolen.

“But just because it didn’t catch us off guard, that doesn’t make it right,” she said.

Moving forward, Brook said police told her the theft would be under investigation and she

would likely hear back on the matter in a few days.

In the meantime, ECM will continue to support Black Lives Matter and the group’s message.

“I’m sure another banner will be hung, but I don’t know when,” she said.

Anyone with information regarding the theft is asked to call 843-4933.

Even the box of frozen fish sticks managed to get away. Regardless, I do have news about other Kansas jobs.

As we reported last week, unemployment in Kansas rose during August, as the state lost about 7,700 nonfarm jobs compared to August 2015.

Well, I’ve now got Lawrence numbers to share with you from that report.

Lawrence and Douglas County contributed to the job losses. In fact, in the most recent report, Lawrence had the largest percentage job loss of any metro area in the state.

The Lawrence metro area lost 600 jobs over the course of the year, although its unemployment rate remains at a reasonable 4.1 percent.

On a percentage basis, Lawrence’s jobs total shrank by 1.2 percent compared to August 2015.

That’s significant because Lawrence’s decline occurred at twice the rate of the state as a whole, which saw a 0.6 percent

Lawrence are tied among Kansas metro areas for the largest percentage decrease in goods-producing jobs.

Government jobs also took a notable hit in Lawrence. The sector is down 200 jobs compared to August 2015, a 1.5 percent decline. Statewide they clawhorn@ljworld.com are down 1.8 percent.

There are a few areas decline. It also was where Lawrence is growgreater than the other ing jobs, and doing so metro areas that the state at a rate faster than the measures. Here’s a look: state as a whole.

Topeka nearly 8 percent; and Kansas City about 9 percent. (The state doesn’t provide numbers for Manhattan.)

Lawrence also saw 1.9 percent growth in the professional and business services category and 1.8 percent in the education and healthcare industry.

Statewide, those industries grew by 0.4 and 1.1 percent, respectively.

One other number worth looking at is Lawrence’s unemployment rate. As I mentioned earlier it is 4.1 percent, which is low compared to many places in the country. It also is below the statewide average of 4.6 percent. But like every other metro area in the state, the rate has risen over the last year. In August 2015, Lawrence’s unemployment rate stood at 3.8 percent.

The other trend that is evident is Lawrence’s labor force is shrinking.

Over the last 12 months, Lawrence’s labor force — the number of people who are working or looking for work — shrank by about 1,500 people.

The Baldwin City school board tabled until October a decision on mill levy support for a community center when none of the three options before it could muster the required four votes on Monday.

That threshold was made harder to achieve from the absence of board member Ivan Huntoon and the decision of Greg Kruger to recuse himself from the vote because he also sits on the Baldwin City Recreation Commission board.

The options before the board were to approve a 2.75 mill levy increase for the BCRC, which would provide half the financing for a $5 million community center; deny the request from the BCRC board; or pass a nonbinding resolution of support but deferring a decision until after city voters decide on the Baldwin City > JOBS, 6A Council’s half-cent sales

Plane defense It’s misguided to be critical of money spent on state airplane.

T

here are lots of financial decisions Gov. Sam Brownback and legislative leaders should have to answer for in the coming election. The decision to paint and refurbish the state’s executive plane isn’t one of them.

This week, The Associated Press reported that the state’s executive aircraft, which is getting a new paint job, a spruced up interior and upgraded avionics this year. The improvements will cost taxpayers nearly $900,000, according to records obtained by the AP. Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley pounced on the report as an opportunity to crtiticize Brownback and the Legislature’s Republican leadership.

Hensley said the spending was “highly ironic” at a time when state funding for transportation had been cut dramatically in an effort to balance the state budget.

“It is not a huge sum of money obviously compared to the budget as a whole, but it is symbolic of, you know, our misguided priorities in terms of where money should be spent,” Hensley told the AP. It should be noted that the improvements to the state’s 2001 Raytheon King Air 350 went unnoticed during budget discussions. It wasn’t until after the AP researched the issue and sought costs that critics emerged.

The reality is the state’s plane is 16 years old and due for upgrades. The Kansas Highway Patrol operates the state plane at a cost of $267,325 per year.

The AP report listed improvements in the budget as $69,249 for painting, $157,744 to refurbish the interior, and $397,825 to upgrade the plane’s aviation electronics systems. Total cost of the project is $624,818.

It seems reasonable and responsible for the state of Kansas to have a plane for the governor and other state leaders to use to conduct business on behalf of the state.

Keeping the plane in good repair with regular maintenance, painting and equipment upgrades is logical.

There is a serious debate to be had about Kansas Department of Transportation funding, which was cut by more than $450 million — 23 percent — from 2014 to 2016 as state leaders shifted transportation funds to other parts of the budget to balance it. The prudence of those cuts is a debate worth having and ultimately, state leaders should be held accountable for those decisions. But holding up $625,000 on upkeeping the state plane as an example of wasteful spending on a luxury while cuts are being implemented elsewhere simply isn’t a valid argument.

Facing up to the dangers of Trump It’s time to focus laser-like attention on the meaning of a Donald Trump presidency for America’s security.

Until now, the presumption that Trump wouldn’t win or doesn’t really mean what he says has led to insufficient scrutiny of how his presidency would threaten our safety. Many security experts — including leading Republicans — have raised concerns, but their protests haven’t risen to the level of the danger.

The time for such complacency is past. The Donald brags he will make America “strong again” but the policies he promotes would do exactly the opposite: emboldening our enemies, undercutting our allies and destroying America’s clout in the world.

So let us imagine what America’s security situation could look like in 2020, after one term of Trump as our commander-in-chief.

Europe: Our most important alliance, with Europe’s democracies, lies in tatters, after Trump’s “America First” policy accelerated the break-up of the European Union and the demise of NATO. Trump tipped his hand in 2016 with an astonishing campaign appearance — in Mississippi — alongside Nigel Farage, the former leader of England’s far-right Independence Party, who led a successful campaign for Britain to “Brexit” the European Union. As President Trump openly supported Europe’s other far-right (and racist) parties as they worked to destroy the political union that kept Western

Europe stable for decades.

Having also declared his disdain for NATO, our closest military alliance, Trump closed down our bases in Germany and England (as well as in Japan and South Korea). He had claimed during the campaign that our allies didn’t pay enough for our protection, telling CNN that the benefit of those alliances was “not big enough to bankrupt and destroy the United States.”

In reality, our Asian allies paid a huge chunk of the base costs in their countries, while NATO allies paid lesser amounts. But the savings of relocating bases from Europe to America were minimal, since Trump didn’t want to disband the transferred military units. What the Donald also refused to consider was the key importance of those bases in deterring Russia from undercutting Western democracies (and China from doing likewise in Asia).

By 2020, Russia has become the dominant influ-

ence in Europe, nibbling at the Baltics and Poland and annexing half of Ukraine.

Moscow continues to fund far-right European parties that support the Kremlin’s anti-American policies and its vision of authoritarian “democracy.”

This doesn’t disturb President Trump, who had finally achieved his decadelong dream of building a Trump tower in Moscow, and has regular dinners with his buddy, Vladimir Putin.

The Donald now hosts a reality show on the Kremlin’s global mouthpiece RT (Russian Television) which had already started interviewing Trump during the 2016 election season and offered Farage his own TV show the same year.

Asia: After Trump withdrew America’s forward Asian bases, China became the dominant player in Asia, taking firm control of many disputed islands and controlling the sea lanes. Deprived of the U.S. nuclear umbrella, Japan and South Korea have built nuclear weapons — which Trump said in the 2016 campaign was fine by him.

The nuclear arms race in Asia grows ever more dangerous and could threaten U.S. territory, but Trump’s “America first” policy eliminated America’s critical role as a stabilizer. Meantime, U.S.-China enmity has soared as Trump kept his promise to slap huge tariffs on Beijing, starting a trade war that has cost America millions of jobs.

The Middle East: Iran has gone nuclear. Soon after taking office, Trump kept

his pledge to destroy the international treaty that had blocked any Iranian nuclear weapons for at least a decade, leaving Tehran free to race right up to breakout capacity. Trump realized the cost of another Mideast war was too high, and Israel hesitated to go solo. America’s Gulf allies, realizing Trump had abandoned them, turned to Moscow for protection.

Terror: Islamic terrorism has risen exponentially in the West and in Israel, as intelligence cooperation has splintered within Europe and among former NATO allies. Trump’s responses are to (1) try muzzling U.S. media criticism, after asking Putin for pointers, and (2) blaming everything on illegal immigrants, or other internal “traitors.” (However, he has been unable to deport the 11 million or get an outraged Mexico to pay for a wall.)

U.S. standing: Global respect and admiration for America have tanked, as the erratic Trump insults former friends and praises its adversaries. Nations no longer look to the United States as the exemplar of liberal democracy. Americans are less safe but Washington has decreasing leverage to protect them.

Perhaps Trump won’t do half of what he’s pledged, but the risk is too great and the security threat too huge, dwarfing any of Hillary Clinton’s flaws. But for anyone still sitting on the fence in this election, the time to face up to the danger is now.

Democrats don’t need to panic

By Doyle McManus

In 2008, when Hillary Clinton first ran for the Democratic presidential nomination against Barack Obama, I asked one of her oldest allies how she could be losing a race that appeared to be hers to win.

“I’ve known Hillary for many years, ever since she came to Arkansas,” former Sen. Dale Bumpers told me.

“She’ll find a way to screw it up. She always does.”

Eight years later, the conventional wisdom is that Clinton is a much better candidate. She learned hard lessons from her failure in 2008; her campaign this year is smarter and less chaotic.

And she isn’t running against Obama, a once-in-a-century political talent; she’s running against an ill-disciplined rookie, Donald Trump.

And yet, as Clinton’s poll numbers have sagged, Democrats have started freaking out: What if the Clinton of 2016 is just as error-prone as the Clinton of 2008?

Others have piled on with less reticence.

“Antibiotics can take care of pneumonia,” former Obama adviser David Axelrod wrote, referring to Clinton’s brief health crisis. “What’s the cure for an unhealthy penchant for privacy that repeatedly creates

unnecessary problems?”

But while Democrats are right to be worried, they’re wrong to be panicked. This presidential race was always going to be close. Clinton is still in the lead, even if her margin has narrowed.

Last week, the average of national polls compiled by the RealClearPolitics website showed Clinton winning 46 percent of the popular vote to 44 percent for Trump.

If Democrats and Republicans behave as they do in most campaigns, they’ll stick with their respective parties’ candidates by massive margins — and the outcome should be a close win for Clinton.

In truth, the polls are doing exactly what campaign strategists on both sides expected: narrowing as Election Day nears.

Clinton won a “bounce” from a successful Democratic convention in July; in August, that average of national polls stood at 48 percent-40 percent.

Now, more than a month later, the margin has returned roughly to where it stood before the two conventions.

Besides, Mark Mellman, a Democratic pollster who isn’t working for Clinton, noted that the “fundamentals” of this year’s election — a sluggish economy, a party seeking its third term

in office — always made it an uphill climb for Clinton.

“Were it not for Donald Trump, this was set up as a good year for Republicans,” he said.

I don’t mean to suggest that Clinton hasn’t screwed up. She has. In the short term, Clinton’s missteps — her speech calling half of Trump’s supporters “deplorables,” her decision to keep her pneumonia secret until after she appeared to collapse — probably contributed to her swoon in the polls.

But she has also announced a strategy to reboot her campaign: a shift to positive themes instead of negatives about Trump. That shouldn’t sound like an innovation — but this year, it is.

Meanwhile, Trump seems to have heard much the same advice from his new campaign advisers — and has improved, too. He’s given a series of policy speeches on topics from the economy to child care, a stark contrast to the freewheeling Trump who won his primary campaign mostly by belittling rivals.

A major test will come in the candidates’ first debate on Sept. 26. In theory, Clinton should have the advantage.

She knows more about policy than Trump, to put it mildly.

She has more experience talking about how she would ac-

tually govern. She’s less likely to resort to name-calling. The test for Trump, remaining within the chalklines his advisors have sketched out, looks tougher.

Clinton has other advantages in the campaign’s final stage. She has more highlevel surrogates to argue her case, from Obama and Bill Clinton to Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren; Trump’s wingmen, Rudy Giuliani and Chris Christie, don’t compare. She has a larger and more professional campaign organization to make sure Democratic voters get to the polls.

“The biggest challenge she’s going to have is turnout,” David Plouffe, Obama’s former campaign manager, said last week. “I think they’ll get there.”

“To win he’s got to get historic republican turnout, get historically bad democratic turnout, and win the center,” he added. “I don’t see any evidence of that.”

My bet is that Plouffe is right, and that Clinton is going to prove Dale Bumpers wrong. She’s a better candidate now; she’s still likely to win. But she’s also going to keep Democrats fighting off panic attacks for the next seven weeks — right up until Election Day. — Doyle McManus is a columnist for the Los Angeles Times.

mill levy increase. In discussion before the votes, the three board members voiced many of the same reservations district residents expressed during a 40-minute public hearing before the board’s deliberations. All three board members said they weren’t opposed to the community center, and pointed to the board’s unanimous decision of earlier this year to donate land north of the high school for the facility as proof of their support of the concept. However, they characterized the proposal as the “wrong plan and the wrong time.”

“I want to see it happen in the future, but I think this is not the right time,” Tiller said. “It’s too much to ask of the community.”

Chapman agreed about the bad timing and noted the school board last month voted to reduce the district’s 2016-2017 mill levy.

which will replace temporary circles currently in place. The circles will be located where 17th and 18th streets intersect with Indiana and Illinois streets. All but one of the devices received at least 70 percent approval, excepting 67 percent approval of the circle at the intersection of 17th and Illinois streets. l Ousdahl Road: Three speed humps between 25th and 26th streets.

Only one of the three speed humps received more than 70 percent approval, but city staff are recommending approval of all three. Staff are citing “substantial neighborhood support” and difficulty contacting property owners because many are not residents in the neighborhood as the reason for their recommendation. l Trail Road: Seven speed cushions on Trail Road between Lawrence Avenue and Kasold Drive. The speed cushions received 85 percent approval from residents.

The exact location of devices will be coordinated with the neighborhood during design. l Trail Road: Three speed cushions on Trail Road between Eldridge Street and Folks Road.

Each speed cushion received 70-83 percent approval.

The traffic-calming project for University Place has received some of the most attention. The neighborhood is directly south of the University of Kansas and sees high traffic from non-residents who park in the neighborhood or use it as a cutthrough from KU to 19th Street.

The temporary devices have been in place since 2004 and were made from parking blocks placed end-to-end in the shape of a hexagon with a reflective sign in the middle. Residents of the neighborhood appealed to commissioners ahead of their vote in June, some asking for permanent traffic-calming circles and others voicing opposition. A petition signed by 23 neighbors asked the city to remove the temporary traffic circles and not install new ones.

Though one of the traffic-calming circles proposed for University Place was a few points short of 70 percent target, city staff are recommending the commission

improvements that need to be made. I think it would be a great asset to the community, but I can’t vote on it at this time.”

Chapman and Tiller agreed with BethellSmith’s observations regarding the community center’s proposed financing. Bethell-Smith suggested the BCRC board explore grant opportunities and capital campaigns to reduce the burden on local taxpayers.

Monday’s lack of a decision should send a message to the BCRC board to change its plan, Chapman said, proposing the BCRC also consider the phased construction of the community center to make it more affordable.

The uncertain status of state school finance made all five board members uncomfortable with the mill levy increase. Harris said there were proposals floating around the Legislature that would require the school district raise its property tax levy from 5 to 7 mills should the Kansas Supreme Court rule in a decision expected next year that the state was not adequately funding K-12 education.

Harris suggested the nonbinding resolution of support, which it was

agreed did not obligate the board to later approve the mill levy increase, would give the board more time to learn how school funding would shake out and hear from constituents.

Christie and Harris joined the other board members in expressing discomfort with the fact that passage of the mill levy increase wouldn’t automatically trigger a districtwide referendum on the increase. Such a vote would only be required if a protest petition of 5 percent of district voters in the last election was filed with the Douglas County Clerk within 30 days of published notice of the mill levy hike.

“This is a community center; there should be a community vote,” Harris said.

Board members also disliked the absence of board control of the mill levy once it was approved. There is not any means to eliminate the added authority short of a protest petition and referendum even should the city sales tax fail in February. Those arguments were also voiced during the public hearing, in which 19 district residents spoke. Many opposed to the mill levy hike asked the board to keep in mind

approve all the circles because of overall support from the neighborhood association.

“We feel like we satisfied the city’s requirements for the 70-percent vote, and we’d like to have the permanent circles installed,” said Steve Evans, president of the University Place Neighborhood Association.

The recommendation also notes the trafficcalming circles were part of the original plan previously approved by the

commission. The same process was followed leading up to the installation of the temporary traffic-calming circles, Evans said.

“If you ask the people that lived here that many years ago, they probably wouldn’t have expected to wait this long to get the permanent circles installed,” Evans said. “So, essentially, the position that a lot of people have is, ‘Well, gee, we voted on it in 2003 and it passed, and why shouldn’t we just go ahead and install

NEW YORK AREA BOMBINGS

SUSPECT CHARGED AFTER SHOOTOUT Police officer shot when he confronts subject of manhunt outside bar Andrew Wyrich, Tariq Zehawi and John Bacon USA TODAY Network

LINDEN, N. J. A suspect in New York-area bombings was charged Monday with five counts of attempted murder of a law enforcement officer after he was captured in a bloody shootout on a New Jersey street.

Ahmad Khan Rahami, 28, and two Linden police officers were wounded in the gunfight — hours after authorities found more explosives at a New Jersey train station, raided an apartment nearby, issued a wanted poster and began to link a blast that injured 29 people Saturday in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood with other bombs.

Authorities were led to Rahami by a fingerprint found on an unexploded device near the Chelsea blast, a federal law enforcement official told USA TODAY on Monday.

The intense manhunt came to a swift conclusion after Rahami, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Afghanistan, was found sleeping in the doorway of a bar, Linden Mayor Derek Armstead said. Rahami shot the responding officer — who was wearing a protective vest — in the abdomen, Armstead said.

Rahami then began shooting “indiscriminately” along Elizabeth Avenue, police said, and another officer was injured in the hand.

More officers joined the gun-

NEW YORK Hours before the FBI released a photo of bomb suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami in an urgent appeal for the public’s help Monday, federal investigators recovered a crucial piece of information allegedly linking the Afghan immigrant to a series of planted devices, including the explosive that injured 29 people Saturday in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.

Authorities lifted a fingerprint from an unexploded pressure-cooker device, which, along with surveillance video allegedly showing a man resembling Rahami wheeling a suitcase carrying crude explosive devices to two downtown locations, launched investigators on a fast-moving manhunt that ended some 50 hours later with Rahami’s arrest a few miles from the suspect’s New Jersey home.

U.N. aid convoy hit as Syrian cease-fire crumbles Kerry urges Russia to restrain Assad Oren Dorell and Kim Hjelmgaard USA TODAY

A United Nations aid convoy was struck while trying to reach civilians in Syria on Monday as the country’s military declared an end to a week-old cease-fire brokered by Russia and the United States.

The military’s announcement followed violations on all sides, including a U.S.-led coalition air-

strike Saturday that mistakenly killed dozens of Syrian soldiers.

The United Nations said an aid convoy was hit Monday in Aleppo province. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Londonbased monitoring group, said at least 32 people — including 12 in a convoy of aid trucks — were killed in airstrikes on parts of Aleppo and areas to the west held by rebel forces.

Syria’s military blamed rebel groups for undermining the cease-fire that aimed to bring the country’s bloody five-year civil war to an end.

State Department spokesman John Kirby said that under terms

of the truce agreement, Russia “is responsible for the Syrian regime’s compliance, so we expect Russia to clarify their position.”

He said the United States is prepared to extend the cease-fire, “while working to strengthen it and expand deliveries of assistance.”

The State Department criticized Syrian forces and their Russian allies for repeatedly targeting aid convoys.

Secretary of State John Kerry in New York called on Russia to restrain Syrian President Bashar Assad and said it is too soon to say whether the cease-fire is dead.

“The important thing is the Russians need to control Assad, who evidently is indiscriminately bombing.”

John Kerry, U.S. secretary of State

“The important thing is the Russians need to control Assad, who evidently is indiscriminately bombing, including of humanitarian convoys,” Kerry said.

The Syrian military said in its statement that “armed terrorist groups” repeatedly violated the cease-fire that went into effect

Sept. 12, the Associated Press reported. The military said the armed groups took advantage of the truce to mobilize and arm themselves while attacking government-held areas.

Rebel groups accused the Syrian government of violating the cease-fire, the AP said. The United Nations said the Syrian government has obstructed the delivery of aid, a key component of the deal.

As part of the truce agreement, Russia and the United States said that if the cease-fire lasted for seven days, they would cooperate on military operations against the Islamic State.

Prosecutors: Christie told of ‘Bridgegate’ Governor’s former allies on trial in fallout from N.J. scandal Paul Berger

The (Bergen County, N.J.) Record

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie knew about the George Washington Bridge lane closure scandal while it was taking place, according to federal prosecutors making their opening statements Monday morning in the trial of two former allies of the governor who are accused of creating gridlock in Fort Lee, N.J., as punishment for the town’s mayor, who did not not endorse Christie for re-election in 2013.

The governor, who has denied any knowledge of the scandal until months later, was told about the lane closures at a NEWARK

Sept. 11 memorial service at the World Trade Center in 2013, three days into the closures, U.S. Attorney Vikas Khanna told jurors.

After a town-hall style event in Whippany, N.J., where Christie was pushing his plan to overhaul education funding, the governor refused to answer questions about the statement made by prosecutors.

Khanna said that Christie was told by Bill Baroni and David Wildstein, two former officials at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which owns and operates the bridge.

“The evidence will show that Baroni and Wildstein were so committed to their plan to punish (Fort Lee) Mayor (Mark) Sokolich during those few minutes they had alone with the governor, they bragged about the fact there were traffic problems in Fort Lee and Mayor Sokolich

Some feel forced to vote for Clinton v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Michigan has been painted blue in every presidential election since 1992. In presidential election years, turnout in Michigan (pop. 9.9 million) increases by nearly 2 million votes. In Wayne County, the state’s largest with seven cities that are majority minority, that means nearly 300,000 more voters cast ballots, predominantly for Democrats.

In 2012, Obama won in Wayne County with 73% of the vote over Republican Mitt Romney, son of popular former Michigan governor George Romney. In 2008, Obama won 74% of the vote over Sen. John McCain. In 44 Michigan voting precincts, most in Detroit, not a single vote was cast for Romney in 2012.

The same trend played out in cities across the state and nation with African-American majorities: Obama won 78% of the vote in Richmond, Va. (49.4% black), and 91% of the vote in Washington (50.4% black).

“Democrats have demonstrated for years their success in getting African Americans to the polls and getting at least 80% to 90% of the vote,” said Mario Morrow, a Detroit political consultant. “But with the recent discovery of Donald Trump that he needs to reach out to black voters, it seems to be even more of a grass-roots project for Democrats to reach out to their base.”

The Clinton campaign has sent surrogates to Detroit in recent weeks, from Jesse Jackson and Bill Clinton to actor Sean Astin and Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C. They register voters and get signed pledge cards from people promising to make it to the polls.

making forays into the AfricanAmerican community, speaking in early September at Great Faith Ministries International, an African-American church in Detroit, and taping an interview on the Impact Network, the television network founded by Pastor Wayne T. Jackson.

In the 2008 and 2012 elections, votes from African Americans represented about 13% of the overall total nationally, according to the Washington-based Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies. Black vote totals went up more in the crucial swing states of Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia, giving Obama the clear Electoral College edge he needed for victory.

Payton Julian, 21, a student at Wayne State University in Detroit, plans to register to vote for the first time, with the escalating cost of college tuition foremost on her mind. “I wasn’t really into the election in the beginning. The two candidates don’t really fit my style,” the interior design major said. “But I’m leaning more toward Hillary because of some of the thoughts she had about college and how it should be more affordable. But mostly because I’d rather have her than Trump. It’s sad to say that, but that’s what it comes down to now.”

The Clinton campaign is well aware of that enthusiasm gap. It’s hard to follow Obama among African-American voters. An EPIC/ MRA poll, conducted in Michigan Sept. 10-13 for the Detroit Free Press and WXYZ-TV, showed Clinton slipping among black voters.

Though she got 90% of the vote among African Americans in EPIC/MRA’s poll in August after the two political conventions, that number slipped to 79% in the more recent poll. Those votes weren’t going to Trump, who received only 2% support from black voters. They were falling into the undecided category.

Many black voters interviewed said they’ll cast a ballot for Clinton not because they like her but because they’re afraid of the country moving backward under a President Trump.

“I am forced to vote for her because I cannot vote for Donald Trump. We’re left with no choice,” said Gwen Broadneck, 79, of Detroit. “I can’t even begin to say all the things I don’t like about him. First, he’s a bigot.”

Morrow ticks off missteps from the Trump campaign likely to keep voters in the Democratic camp: his leadership in the “birther” movement questioning Obama’s citizenship; his denigration of Hispanics, Muslims and women; and his tone when talking about African Americans in front of largely white audiences as a community beset by poverty, violence and despair. Trump’s signature tagline in recent weeks — “What the hell do you have to lose?” by voting for him — is particularly galling, he said.

“What do you have to lose? My integrity was my response,” Morrow said. “Simply put, you’re telling me, you’re asking me to forget everything that you’ve said and done.”

The Rev. James C. Perkins, pastor of Greater Christ Baptist Church in Detroit and president of the Progressive National Baptist Convention, said Democratic voters have to remember the issues important to them, even if they don’t like or trust Clinton.

“We always vote our need. We

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has maintained he didn’t know about the the lane closures on the George Washington Bridge until months later.

was not getting his calls returned,” Khanna said.

Bridget Anne Kelly, 44, is Christie’s former deputy chief of staff and Baroni, 44, is the governor’s former top executive ap-

pointee at the Port Authority.

The pair are charged with misusing federally funded property, wire fraud and depriving residents of their civil rights to travel freely in the town.

They face the possibility of years in jail and fines totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Baroni’s defense lawyer painted Wildstein as a “bully” and a “liar” who acted as Christie’s “ventriloquist’s doll.”

In his opening statement, Michael Baldassare said that Wildstein had spent his entire political career intimidating people and spinning lies.

Baldassare said that was why Christie installed Wildstein as his political “fixer” at the Port Authority.

“When David Wildstein spoke, Governor Christie’s voice came out and everybody knew it,” Baldassare said.

COUNTIES LIKE WAYNE, MICH. Similar to Wayne, these counties have a high number of African-American voters.

“When the government says ‘Trenton,’ ‘Trenton’ is the governor. Make no mistake.”

He added that Christie used to jokingly refer to Wildstein as his “Mr. Wolf,” a character in the movie Pulp Fiction who “cleans up the bodies.”

Wildstein pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges in relation to the lane closures last year and is cooperating with federal prosecutors.

“The government made a deal with the devil and they’re stuck with him,” Baldassare said.

He said that Baroni will testify at the trial. “When it becomes time I guarantee you 100%, I’m saying it here in open court,” Baldassare told the jury.

“Bill is going to sit in that witness box and tell you what happened.”

About this series To report this series, the USA TODAY Network identified eight counties around the country that represent key voting groups in the November election, from blue-collar and college-educated voters to rural voters and Latinos.

Journalists spent time with voters, political observers and experts in these eight counties — blue, red and purple — talking about the presidential candidates, the issues and the importance of this year’s election. In the coming weeks, look for our coverage of the following counties: Maricopa County, Ariz.; Union County, Iowa; Larimer County, Colo.; Clark County, Ohio; and Hillsborough County, Fla.

“Maybe sometimes he’s made it difficult, but people are willing to listen to what Trump has to say,” says Wayne Bradley, AfricanAmerican engagement director for the Republican Party in Michigan.

“We have to vote our issues and not the personality. We have to vote for the person who is going to go to office and represent our interests,” says the Rev. James C. Perkins of Greater Christ Baptist Church in Detroit.

listen to the candidates in both parties,” he said. “We have to vote our issues and not the personality. We have to vote for the person who is going to go to office and represent our interests.”

Those interests, Jesse Jackson told 47 ministers from churches across Detroit during a meeting in September, include protecting the right to vote and the future makeup of the Supreme Court; ensuring the Affordable Care Act remains intact and expanding Medicaid coverage to states that refused to take federal money to help poor people; and increasing the minimum wage.

In Michigan, other issues drive African-American voters, including the Flint public health crisis caused by lead-contaminated water and the state’s emergency manager law, which was passed

by Republicans in 2012 and has allowed the state to take over financially struggling cities and school districts in predominantly African-American areas.

“As for Hillary’s issue about trust, we can trust that she’ll fight for gender equality and racial justice, workers’ wages, the right to vote and health care,” Jackson said. “If we start with all that, she has the track record of doing that.”

The ministers will take that message — vote your need — to their congregations. By Election Day on Nov. 8, many congregations across metro Detroit will have seen local, state and federal candidates at their churches.

When Trump reached out to African Americans in a Detroit church, the congregation of about 300 people greeted him warmly, even as about 200 protesters outside decried his presence in Detroit and the church for hosting him.

Alphonso and Saretta Wallace of West Bloomfield attended the service and said they had an open mind about his candidacy.

“I would like to hear more about what his economic plans are regarding the African-American community,” Alphonso Wallace said.

The Michigan Republican Party has made a concerted effort to court the African-American vote.

The party opened a Detroit office three years ago as a way to attract black voters and recruit volunteers and candidates for office.

set of challenges, but at the same time, he brings opportunity because there are a lot of people who have already heard of him, and there are people who are attracted to him just by his celebrity,” said Wayne Bradley, African-American engagement director for the state Republican Party. “Maybe sometimes he’s made it difficult, but people are willing to listen to what Trump has to say.”

Trump’s visit to Detroit, Bradley said, was a good first step toward peeling off some of the black vote in Detroit. He acknowledged that may only mean Clinton wins 90% of the vote.

“But if this is the only thing he’s got planned for black outreach, it won’t be enough,” he said. “If this is the beginning, this is what he needs to do because people are looking for a reason to support Donald Trump because they don’t trust Hillary Clinton.”

Melissa El, 63, of Detroit said she listened to Trump and thought he handled himself well.

“It’s the first time that we can remember that a Republican candidate reached out to the AfricanAmerican community in such a palpable way,” she said. “But it didn’t make me more likely to vote for him. I still don’t believe he’s qualified to lead the most powerful country in the world and be the most powerful man in the world.”

The outcome of Michigan’s electoral votes could come down to one factor: African-American turnout.

Thom Gatson, 63, a production technician with Ford Motor, said this is not the year to stay home on Election Day. “This is more important than the last two votes.

The election of Barack Obama was a prelude to the changing of this country,” he said.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

After a summer lull, the stock market is back to swinging up and down wildly — grabbing the attention of once-complacent investors.

Friday, the quiet market made a lot of noise when stocks suffered their biggest drop since the shock known as Brexit was heard ’round the world in late June.

Monday — when stocks rebounded sharply, erasing half of Friday’s losses — the sense of calm seemed a distant memory.

Volatility — code word for wildly gyrating stock prices — has returned with a vengeance. Backto-back days with monstrous moves in either direction is proof.

Friday, the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index fell 2.45%, snap-

ping two streaks in the process. It was the first decline of more than 1% since June 27 and the first time it had moved more than 1%, up or down, since July 8, S&P Dow Jones Indices says.

Monday’s wild action, punctuated by a 1.3% rebound, is more proof that the days of tiny point moves are over.

The source of the market’s renewed turbulence is the Federal Reserve. More specifically: Will they hike interest rates next week?

Heading into the meeting, Fed members have offered wildly different viewpoints. Friday, comments from one Fed official made it seem almost a certainty the central bank would hike next week. Monday, a different Fed official offered up a treatise as to why now is not the time to hike.

The suspense ends Sept. 21 when the Fed makes its decision public.

Feds subpoena Taro Pharmaceutical over generics Kevin McCoy @kmccoynyc USA TODAY

Department of Justice investigators have subpoenaed Taro Pharmaceutical Industries and two senior officers, seeking documents related to generic-drug pricing and sales.

The Israel-based company received the federal grand jury subpoenas last week from DOJ’s Antitrust Division, Taro said in a Securities and Exchange Commission disclosure filed late Fri-

day after U.S. financial markets closed.

The subpoenas seek “documents relating to corporate and employee records, generic pharmaceutical products and pricing, communications with competitors and others regarding the sale of generic pharmaceutical products, and certain other related matters,” Taro said in the filing.

The news sent Taro shares down 4% to $119.42 on Monday.

The company did not identify the executives who were subpoenaed, but it said it plans to respond to the subpoenas and

Taro declined to comment beyond the SEC disclosure.

Taro manufactures and supplies topical dermatological products. It also markets pills used mainly in cardiology and neurology for problems such as fluid accumulation caused by some types

of glaucoma or heart weakness, as well as to treat convulsive disorders such as epilepsy. The range of over-the-counter products the company markets in the U.S. includes hydrocortisone creams and ointments used to treat skin rashes and itching.

Taro represents the latest pharmaceutical firm under examination by U.S. authorities amid national criticism of sharp medication price hikes.

Federal prosecutors, Congress and state regulators have been investigating the drug pricing and distribution at Valeant Pharma-

ceuticals International.

Turing Pharmaceuticals, the New York company once led by controversial drug-industry entrepreneur Martin Shkreli, has drawn investigations and criticism over its 5,000% price hike last year for Daraprim, an antiparasite medication used to treat AIDS patients and others with weakened immune systems.

Mylan has drawn criticism and congressional scrutiny for raising prices on EpiPens, a life-saving injection used by those with serious allergies, from $249 in 2009 to more than $600 this year.

LIFELINE HOW WAS YOUR DAY? BAD DAY ABC This year’s Emmy Awards may have been great for diverse talent, but not for ABC. According to preliminary Nielsens, Sunday’s show averaged a meager 11.3 million viewers, a drop from last year’s 11.9 million viewers.

The telecast faced stiff competition from NBC’s ‘Sunday Night Football’ and the debut of CBS’ ‘The Case of JonBenét Ramsey’ miniseries, which drew 10.3 million viewers.

STYLE STAR Lily James is already the ‘Pride’ of London Fashion Week. The ‘Pride and Prejudice and Zombies’ actress and ‘Downton Abbey’ star arrived at Burberry’s show Monday dressed to impress in a silk scarf print wrap dress and ankle-strap dress sandals. No wonder she was named the new face of Burberry.

Randall (Sterling K. Brown, right) winds up at the door of his father (Ron Cephas Jones), who abandoned him at birth.

‘This Is Us’: Savor this one, even if it’s a little too sweet NBC’s new drama has heart, humor and honest emotion

JOEL RYAN, AP

THEY SAID WHAT? THE STARS’ BEST QUOTES “People see me as someone privileged who has used my position to advantage, that I don’t really work, that I am a socialite. ... I work very hard.

I’m true to my values. I just try to live a normal life like many of my friends.” — Pippa Middleton to the ‘Daily Mail’ on the ‘socialite’ label

This is us, with a bit too much sugar added.

Let me hasten to add that NBC’s This Is Us (Tuesday, 10 ET/PT, TV PREVIEW moves to 9 on Oct. ROBERT 11; eeeE out of BIANCO four) is also one of the most promising new broadcast dramas. That’s a relatively low bar: Most of the other offerings will leave you feeling you’ve seen them before, and in the case of the many remakes, you have. But even if the season was crowded with great series, This Is Us would stand out as a welcome and increasingly rare addition: a network drama about the lives we share and the ways we connect, without a medical, magical or criminal storytelling hook.

This new series comes from Dan Fogelman, whose writing in movies such as Crazy Stupid Love and Tangled and TV series Galavant, The Neighbors and Fox’s upcoming Pitch is marked by its uncynical embrace of sweetness and emotion. Set in Pittsburgh, the story follows three seemingly unconnected young adults who share a birthday (“The average human being,” we’re told, “shares his or her birthday with over 18

As the hour cuts back and forth among short scenes, we meet the cast of characters and begin to sense ways their lives could intertwine. Rebecca (Mandy Moore) is pregnant with triplets, and her incredibly supportive husband, Jack (Milo Ventimiglia, giving his most appealing performance), is there to assure her everything will be fine. You can tell those kids are going to be born into a great family — unlike 36-year-old birthday boy Randall (The People v. O.J. Simpson’s Emmy winner Sterling K. Brown), who’s about to reconnect with the father (Ron

Cephas Jones) who abandoned him at birth.

That leaves two more cele-

brants: Kevin (Justin Hartley), the hot star of the clearly terrible sitcom The Man-ny, and Kate (Chrissy Metz). Both have body issues: Kate hates being overweight; Kevin hates being exploited for his good looks.

There’s a great deal of humor and heart on display here, and a sense of empathy that draws you into all of the characters. You also get a wide range of fine performances, from Metz’s humortinged refusal to give in to self-pity to Brown’s expertly played conflict over how to deal with his father.

The only real drawback in Tuesday’s premiere is that Us doesn’t yet know when enough is enough.

That’s a particular problem when it comes to Gerald McRaney’s ultra-folksy “Doctor K,” who is the candy-coated cherry on top of an already gooey sundae. (This is Pittsburgh, not Walton’s Mountain.) There are plenty of scenes in Us that provoke tears honestly; there’s no need to dig around for them with a fork.

Still, what stands out in the end is the joy that can be had from Us — much more than you may expect from the promos, as the show ends with an excellent, well-hidden twist that sends it in an intriguing new direction. It’s a secret, and you should do your best to make sure it stays one.

Don’t worry: You won’t find out from us.

“Please tell me you’re seeing this, too.”

Rami Malek jokingly started his speech at Sunday’s Emmy Awards, accepting best leading actor in a drama series for USA’s Mr. Robot.

For the Egyptian-American actor, it was a joking nod to the paranoid programmer, Elliot Alderson, he plays on the series. But it also summed up the feelings of many viewers, watching the welcome swath of diverse talent that took the stage throughout the threehour broadcast.

“For me to stand here as not the typical leading man and to come home with this speaks a lot about where we’re headed,” Malek said backstage, where he paid tribute to his Egyptian immigrant parents. “I think we can just keep going further in that direction.

It’s not just limited to entertainment, but socially and politically (that) we continue and strive to be as progressive as possible.”

Malek is among four minority actors to win in acting categories

Among Sunday’s big winners: Rami Malek, above; Aziz Ansari, top inset; Tatiana Maslany; and Jeffrey Tambor.

Sunday, of 16 nominated (up from three winners and 14 nominees last year). In limited series, Courtney B. Vance and Sterling K. Brown earned lead and supporting-actor awards, respectively, for FX’s The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story.

Regina King took home her second consecutive supportingactress honor for ABC’s American Crime in the same category.

People of color triumphed in other areas, too: Black comedians

Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele took home best variety/sketch series for the fifth and final season of Comedy Central’s Key & Peele.

In the comedy writing category, Alan Yang and Aziz Ansari shared the award for Master of None’s “Parents” episode, inspired by their own parents’ experiences emigrating from Taiwan and India, respectively.

The diversity of winners went beyond race and ethnicity. Women earned two of the three directing trophies: Susanne Bier for AMC’s limited series The Night Manager, and Jill Soloway, who memorably called to “topple the patriarchy” while accepting the Emmy for Amazon’s Transparent.

Leading actress in a drama series winner Tatiana Maslany, who has played more than a dozen cloned women over four seasons of BBC America’s Orphan Black, said she feels “so lucky to be on a show that puts women at the center.”

LGBT talent was recognized throughout the night with major wins for Kate McKinnon, who

took supporting actress in a comedy for NBC’s Saturday Night Live, and The People v. O.J.’s Sarah Paulson, for leading actress in a limited series. Gay actors Lily Tomlin (Netflix’s Grace and Frankie) and Tituss Burgess (Netflix’s Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) also received nods, while RuPaul won outstanding reality host for Logo’s RuPaul’s Drag Race.

“In the second year of OscarsSoWhite, it was really refreshing to see an awards show that honors inclusion, both in storytelling and the creators who tell the stories,” says Sarah Kate Ellis, president and CEO of GLAAD. But despite the strides that have been made, Transparent’s Jeffrey Tambor acknowledged there is more to be done as he accepted his second consecutive win for leading actor in a comedy.

Tambor plays a trans woman on the critically acclaimed Amazon series and called for Hollywood to give more chances to trans talent.

“Give them auditions. Give them their story,” Tambor said.

“And also, one more thing: I would not be unhappy were I the last cisgender male playing a female transgender on television.

We have work to do.”

Your wife has a successful career and professional identity, as do you. Why would it be fair for your wife to sacrifice her career for yours? You need to speak with her about her goals and desires and also discuss yours. Then you can mutually craft a strategy that will allow you both to feel happy while optimizing family time.

Dreary ‘This Is Us’ disappoints The new drama “This Is Us” (9 p.m., NBC, TV-14) reminded me of “Logan’s Run,” an old movie and TV series I had completely forgotten. “Run” was set in a dystopian future where dwindling resources dictated that everybody faced liquidation upon turning 30. Folks had every right to feel wary.

We meet the characters on the ensemble dramedy “This Is Us” on their respective 36th birthdays. And each of them greets the day as if facing a firing squad.

“This Is Us”: We’re d e e p l y depressed characters on a pretentious TV show!

A show named “Bull” (8 p.m., CBS, TV-14) based partially on the life of Dr. Phil McGraw presents a pretty rich target. I’ll try to contain myself.

Michael Weatherly (“NCIS”) stars as Dr. Jason Bull, the head of a super-high-tech jury-consulting firm with a seemingly bottomless budget. He uses every gadget and breaks every law to psychologically profile jury members and create “mirror” juries that accurately predict verdicts.

The knower of every secret, Bull treats judges, lawyers and prosecutors as mere squashed insects on the windshield of his mind.

I’ve never seen a series pilot with less character development. Make that no character development. Bull presides godlike over the proceedings. He’s handsome in a middle-aged, Clark Kent-meets-Jack Bauer by way of Kevin Bacon sort of way.

Just last week, the Turner Company announced its licensing of the entire “Star Wars” film collection. Tonight through Sunday, TNT turns over much of its schedule to the films, beginning with “Star Wars: The Phantom Menace” (7 p.m.) from 1999.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Tuesday, Sept. 20: This year a touchy or difficult partnership opens up. If you are single, you meet people no matter where you go or what you do. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy spending time together.

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) Once you hear someone's issues, you might feel as if you should adapt to meet his or her needs — just make sure you won't be resentful later. Tonight: Trust yourself.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) All eyes are on you right now. Encourage willing participation. Tonight: Play it low-key.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Knowing when to cut your losses is important. You might not like how a particular situation is developing. Tonight: Relax with a loved one.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) How you deal with others could change if you'd just relax.

You might not see or grasp the big picture. Tonight: Loosen up.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Your refusal to hear the word "no" will become an asset, as it will provide you with endurance. Nevertheless, be aware that a problem still could develop. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

A few years ago, I dated a man who would say to me, “Elizabeth, you are humming.” While reading your column, I realized that this person was the only person I ever hummed around. I believe the reason was he made me tense because of his demeanor.

This uptight man had the need to brush his teeth five times each day, comb his hair each time he got into a car and comb it again as he exited. His perfectionism in all matters must have had an effect on me that caused me to hum quietly rather than hit him over the head with his toothbrush. — Hmmph — Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Understand that your strength comes from your ability to see the big picture. Tonight: Read between the lines.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Close relating elicits unique results that you might not have anticipated. Be more openminded. Tonight: Time for a chat.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You can't count on anyone but yourself to push a heartfelt matter to completion. Tonight: Say "yes" to an offer.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Pace yourself, and understand where a financial issue stems from. Communication could be overwhelming right now. Tonight: Listen to what an associate shares.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You'll see a matter in a new light. A friendship with a close friend will make you feel great.

Tonight: Add some spice to the moment.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Conversations reveal a whole new perspective that is workable. Tonight: Accept someone's invitation.

YOUR HEALTH YOUR COMMUNITY YOUR STORY

‘When fathers are absent, children suffer’

Family health program puts focus on dads

By Joanna Hlavacek

A

jhlavacek@ljworld.com

ccording to the U.S. Census Bureau, 24 million children in the U.S. — that’s one out of every three — are growing up without their biological father living under the same roof.

It’s a social problem that over the last few decades has quickly

escalated to a full-blown epidemic, says Jery Marquez, the coordinator of a recently launched initiative intended to provide local fathers with the resources needed to fully connect with and support their children.

“When fathers are absent, children suffer,” says Marquez, who supervises the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department’s new “Healthy Dad, Healthy Families”

program. “We can see the outcomes — children from fatherless homes are more likely to live in poverty, perform poorly in schools, (be) involved in drug and alcohol abuse, and suffer from emotional problems.”

On a local level, the issue isn’t quite so widespread — the U.S. Census Bureau counted 1 in 5 Douglas County children living without the physical presence of

a father in 2014. But Marquez, a father himself, knows from personal experience the need for an initiative like “Healthy Dads” in the Lawrence area.

The program, which last month began offering classes for inmates at the Douglas County Corrections Facility and residents of the Lawrence Community Shelter,

The screenings and informational exhibits are provided by volunteer physicians, audiologists, optometrists, LMH associates and other area health care professionals. There will also be free refreshments.

In addition, blood chemistry profiles will be available for $40 ($50 if PSA prostate cancer screening test for males is included) from 7 to 10 a.m.

teaches parenting skills through participation in a peer-based fathers’ support group. Other facets include professional development, as well as connecting fathers with other resources that will help them provide for their families, such as housing and food assistance.

Sometimes, Marquez says, it’s a matter of not knowing what services are available to you.

And while many social services focus on mothers, it’s often fathers — boys, Marquez points out, aren’t conditioned to nurture and care for others the way girls are — who are left in the dark.

About a dozen inmates (all minimum to medium security, or in work release) from the Douglas County Jail are enrolled in the program as of Monday. In the meetings, swapping personal experiences is encouraged, which can lead to both laughs and tears, Marquez says.

“When they shared their stories, it was heartbreaking,” Marquez recalls of the first meeting at the jail. “They want to be good dads, but they need resources. They need to be educated.”

The Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department plans on offering a similar version of the program to community members later this month, with the first scheduled for Sept. 29.

The free classes will be held from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. every Thursday until Nov. 10 at the Health Department, 200 Maine St. Childcare and snacks will be provided, and the classes will be open to any dad or father figure in Douglas County.

An incentive will also be offered to dads paying child support to the state of Kansas, Marquez added. These fathers are eligible to receive $50 off their child support expenses for each hour attended; after 15 hours, the amount goes down to $25, capping at $2,000 total.

Research has shown that fathers who are physically and emotionally present for their families can create a lasting impact on children’s lives, Marquez says.

One study published in the Journal of Family Psychology indicated that children with more involved fathers experienced fewer behavioral problems and scored higher on reading assessments.

As a society, we’ve long placed the burden of parenting on mothers, Marquez says.

“That’s something that we definitely need to change,” he says. “Fathers have unique skills, mothers have unique skills, and both are important for the development of our children.”

“Healthy Dads, Healthy Families” is partially made possible by a one-year $185,000 grant from the Kansas Department for Children and Families.

Marquez encourages anyone interested in the program to contact him at jmarquez@ldchealth. org, 856-5338 or 3933802.

Lab helping runners Fair one step at a time

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Ann Arbor, Mich. (ap) — Some footwear stores videotape a jogger’s gait on a treadmill to help determine the kind of running shoe that would be the best fit.

The University of Michigan is taking that practice a few steps beyond.

The School of Kinesiology’s Michigan Performance Research Laboratory attaches motion-capture sensors to runners’ legs and upper body, has them jog on a treadmill outfitted with 10,000 sensors and does the old-school videotaping. The running-specific assessment that’s now available to the public, not just the school’s athletes, lasts about two hours and includes indepth clinical and biomechanical evaluations.

It’s the “really unique technology” and “a lot of expertise” that sets the lab apart, according to Jessica Deneweth Zendler, the director of MiPR (pronounced “my PR”).

High school cross country runner Lydia Gilbert was looking to get a leg up on her competition and an answer to why she’s been suffering from nagging shin splints.

Following a clinical examination by Cristine Agresta, a physical therapist and post-doctoral research fellow, the 16-year-old junior from Ann Arbor was outfitted with the sensors and jogged on the treadmill at various speeds. A flat screen displayed a 3-D image of Gilbert’s skeleton as she ran.

After, Agresta ran through the preliminary results of the testing, which included footwear,

musculoskeletal and postural evaluations, as well as footprint pressure and 3-D gait analyses.

“We go through their video, because it’s always nice to see yourself in action and it helps confirm that I’m not just making things up,” Agresta said, laughing. “People actually believe it when they see it on the video.”

Gilbert said she got what she was looking for, predicting the findings will help her feel less pain and hoping it will help her achieve a sub20-minute 5K time.

“It was very insightful seeing how I can correct my running and how my running was different from how it should be,” Gilbert said.

LMH Community Education Specialist Allison Koonce, who is coordinating this year’s fair, said, “Lawrence Memorial Hospital sponsors the annual health fair as a way to encourage people to stay on top of their health.”

Two sets of numbers tell tale of Cozart

Hitting it big

If limited to three numbers for a statistical evaluation of quarterbacks, I prefer yards per attempt, touchdowns and interceptions. Those three statistics tell two distinctly different stories about Kansas quarterback Montell Cozart, a fourth-year junior.

One is a happy story, the other a sad tale.

First, the uplifting one: In three games vs. Football Championship Subdivision schools, Southeast Missouri State, South Dakota State and Rhode Island, Cozart has averaged 7.9 yards per pass attempt, thrown sevCozart en touchdown passes and two interceptions.

In 17 games, some as a starter, some as a reliever, vs. Football Bowl Subdivision competition, Cozart has averaged 5.3 yards per attempt, thrown five touchdown passes and 11 interceptions.

Chiefs perplexed after loss to Texans

NFL teams AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE EAST already feeling lots of pain

FREE STATE HIGH TODAY WEST

By Dave Skretta

By Barry Wilner AP Pro Football Writer

From the top of the NFL to the bottom of the heap, teams are already feeling the pain.

From injuries.

Key performers are dropping like they’ve been through two months of the season, not two weeks. The latest: Adrian Peterson , Jimmy Garoppolo, DeMarcus Ware, Josh McCown , Danny Woodhead , Jonathan Stewart and Arian Foster.

The Patriots, perhaps the league’s best team, appear to be down to their third QB. The Browns, possibly the NFL’s worst team, are working on No. 3, rookie Cody Kessler.

Most worrisome, though, is Peterson, the 2012 league MVP and Minnesota’s cornerstone on offense who has a torn meniscus in his right knee.

He has remarkable recovery skills — Peterson tore the ACL in his left knee in the second-to-last game of the 2011 season, then played all of 2012 and rushed for more than 2,000 yards. But this is four years later, it’s the other knee and he was unable to put pressure on his leg as he hobbled off the field. Then Peterson needed help getting to the locker room.

He was on crutches after the game, wearing a brace on his right leg. Coach Mike Zimmer said Monday that the team is “exploring all options.”

Usually, a torn meniscus requires several weeks of rehab before a player can return to the field.

Garoppolo hardly is a star, with two pro starts on his resume. But he sure was doing a nice imitation of Tom Brady while the four-time Super Bowl champion is serving his fourgame “Deflategate” suspension.

Now Jimmy G’s immediate future is in doubt after taking a monstrous hit from Miami linebacker Kiko Alonso on a second-quarter pass play. Garoppolo barely was able to move his shoulder as he walked off the field.

As usual, Patriots coach Bill Belichick isn’t supplying much info on his third-year quarterback, saying only the team will take a day-to-day approach.

Rookie Jacoby Brissett finished off the win.

“This game is a 100 percent injury rate,” Patriots receiver Julian Edelman said. “It’s football and everyone’s just gotta do their job a little bit better.”

Cleveland lost starting quarterback Robert Griffin III last week with a shoulder problem.

Now McCown is plagued by the same kind of hurt, though he finished Sunday’s 25-20 loss to Baltimore.

Unable to lift his left arm after the game, McCown said he planned to play next week at Miami. Sorry: On Monday, Browns coach Hue Jackson said the sprained shoulder meant Kessler would start instead of McCown at Miami.

“We’ll find out a lot about him this weekend,” Jackson said of Kessler, a third-round draftee in April.

Denver’s superb defense isn’t anchored by the 34-year-old Ware, but he’s an important component. The linebacker/ pass rush specialist broke his right forearm against Indianapolis and will require surgery Tuesday that will sideline him for four to five weeks.

Ware missed all but the final few days of training camp to protect his back, which kept him out of five games last season.

Losing Ware isn’t a deal breaker for the Broncos, but the defending champions recognize their defense must stay strong and deep for them to contend again.

Of the three significant injuries to running backs, Woodhead’s was the worst, a torn right ACL. The versatile Chargers sparkplug was taken off the > NFL, 4D

Tebow arrives for 1st workout at Mets camp Port St. Lucie, Fla. — Tim Tebow has arrived at the New York Mets’ instructional league.

The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner and former NFL quarterback got to the Mets’ complex Monday, where he showed some power, hitting three balls in batting practice off the chain-link fence in right-center — better than just about everyone else did. He also showed some rust, popping up a half-dozen pitches in that same BP session. And he showed a need for work, after one of his throws sailed well over someone’s head and nearly onto an adjacent field during a simple game of catch.

He’s one of 58 players on the team’s instructional league roster.

Tebow’s last time playing true organized baseball was in his junior year of high school.

Hoping to become an outfielder, Tebow worked out for scouts in Los Angeles last month and not

long afterward the Mets signed him to a deal that included a $100,000 bonus.

Ventura pitches Royals past Sox Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Yordano Ventura kept his pitch count down, which enabled him to go nine innings for the first time in the majors.

Ventura picked up his first complete-game victory, Kendrys Morales hit a three-run homer, and the Kansas City Royals defeated the Chicago White Sox 8-3 Monday.

The Royals have won three straight, keeping their faint playoff hopes flickering with 12 games remaining. The Royals went 14-5 against the White Sox this year.

“My goal today was try to get as many outs as I can as quick as I can and go deep in the game and that’s what I did today,” Ventura said with catching coach Pedro Grifol as his translator. “I’m happy with it.”

Ventura (11-11) gave up

nine hits, struck out five and walked one. His only other complete game in the majors was a 3-2 loss July 28 at Texas.

“He was outstanding,” Royals catcher Drew Butera said. “He was efficient with his pitches.

He had great movement, great life. He was really good.”

Ventura had allowed 10 runs, 17 hits and six walks in 11 1/3 innings in losing his previous two starts.

He threw only 16 pitches in a 10-batter span to end the fifth and into the seventh.

“He did a phenomenal job of managing his pitchcount,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “He put himself in a position with a five-run lead to have a complete game. He got through eight with 92 pitches. He just pitched a great game.”

Morales homered off Carlos Rodon (7-10) in a four-run fifth. Morales homered in back-to-back games, bringing his total to 29. The last Royal to hit 30 home runs in a season was Jermaine Dye, with 33 in 2000.

Paulo Orlando and Alcides Escobar homered in the second for the Royals.

Eric Hosmer drove in two runs with a pair of singles, giving him 97 RBIs. Billy Burns had three hits, was hit by a pitch, stole a base and scored two runs.

“They’re a good ballclub,” Rodon said. “Guys that have been in the game for a while and just understand that, make me throw pitches and get deep in the count, and they did a really good job of that. They swing the bat well, but our guys swung the bat well, too.

Some hard balls hit and some home runs, and that’s baseball.”

Jose Abreu and Carlos Sanchez hit solo home runs for the White Sox. Todd Frazier added an RBI single and had two hits off Ventura.

“He’s throwing 97, 98 (mile per hour),” Frazier said late in the game.

“That’s tough to pick up, tough to lay off, too, as well, because it looks like a strike and comes off. He had good command, basically.”

Dual ejections Plate umpire Toby Basner ejected Escobar in the fifth for arguing balls and strikes. When Yost interceded, Basner thumbed him, too.

In the final meeting of the day, LHS won both doubles contests to ultimately split with Blue Valley West. Cote and Thornton cruised to an 8-1 win at No. 1 doubles while sophomores Caitlynn Kliem and Karenna Peterson took home an 8-4 victory in No. 2 doubles.

The latter was especially important for Marshall, who has yet to find a formidable duo for his second doubles team. But with Sunflower League play looming around the

than he did last year. The area his new physique has affected him most is his lower body, which occasionally can “get heavy at times.”

But Bragg insists that the added weight has done nothing to negatively impact his conditioning.

“It’s not bad weight,” he said. “I think I carry it really good. It just takes time. That’s all.”

One KU teammate who may have the best read on just how much Bragg’s efforts this offseason have paid off is senior forward Landen Lucas. Known a season ago as the one player on the Kansas roster

“We have some things to work on,” Marshall said. “We played a couple difference combinations at No. 2 doubles but I think I found the one I am going to stick with so that’s a good thing. So it was a overall OK day.”

Monday’s matches marked the first such played at Lawrence High

this season as the courts underwent renovations.

After an afternoon spent in the heat, Marshall was certainly pleased with the idea of having a much shorter drive on the way home.

“It is nice,” Marshall said. “At least I don’t have to drive the van back and then drive home.”

LHS will play in the City Showdown dual at Free State at 3 p.m. Sept. 27.

who was big enough and strong enough to handle brick houses on opposing teams, Lucas said he had both seen and felt a different Bragg during pick-up games this summer.

“He’s put on some weight,” Lucas said. “And that’s good, but there’s another level to it, which is using it.”

As for Bragg’s definitive claim that he pushes back these days a lot more than he used to when he faces Lucas, the KU senior had no problem confirming that.

“He definitely does,” Lucas said. “It’s good, and it’s good for me, too, to be able to have as many bodies as possible to be able to do that.”

Added Bragg: “I hold my ground a lot better.”

Although nothing has

been handed to him just yet, there’s no denying that Bragg has a terrific task in front of him this season. Gone is Perry Ellis, and the player who stands to benefit the most from the opportunity to fill Ellis’ shoes is the versatile Bragg. Lucas said Bragg’s new dimensions should make him even more dangerous.

“He’s just adjusting his game, knowing that he’s very talented outside, but that we need him every now and then, depending on match-ups and personnel in the game, to step inside,” Lucas said. “(KU) Coach (Bill Self) knows what he wants from him, and I’m sure during these next couple of weeks of practice he’ll make sure that Carlton’s on the same page.”

We’ve gotta pick up the drills a little faster. I know it’s early in the morning, but, other than that, I think we’ll be OK, especially tomorrow once everybody gets back out there and isn’t so worried about what’s to come.”

Lucas, who now is considered one of the old men on this team, said he couldn’t help but be amused by the fact that he was on the other side of the coin this year and added that he

remembered his first encounters with Boot Camp very well.

“It’s funny seeing it from a different perspective because you were once thinking the same things I’m sure they were thinking,” he said. “But hopefully they understand that this is an important time of the year and this is a step in a bigger picture and just kind of look at it that way. It’ll go by pretty easy if you do that.”

without two of his most dependable sidekicks, although it’s helped San Diego that 2015 first-round pick Melvin Gordon has emerged at running back.

Miami’s Foster went down with a groin injury.

He already was struggling with a hamstring issue and is coming off surgery to repair his Achilles tendon.

As Edelman said, injuries are unavoidable in pro football. Often, the healthiest team when winter hits winds up playing for and probably walking off with the Lombardi Trophy.

Most troubling, though, is when the injury bug hits so soon. Many a team’s talented roster has been torn asunder by a lack of health, including Balti-

more and Dallas a year ago. It’s important, yet difficult, to avoid thinking that if September is so hurtful, what will the rest of the schedule be like?

But the approach has to be a positive one, even when untested quarterbacks are calling signals and Hall of Fame-caliber running backs are hobbled.
