Middle schools adopt LGBT clubs

A MOON TO MAKE YOU SWOON

By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

Groups offer education, camaraderie

City commissioners will decide at their Tuesday meeting whether to finalize a sales tax break for materials used on the Eldridge Hotel expansion — a type CITY of incentive some commissioners campaigned COMMISSION against during elections this spring. The resolution up for consideration finalizes a transaction started in February, when then-city commissioners approved a measure that signaled their intent to issue $12.5 million in industrial

When Arla Jones was a teacher-sponsor of the Gay-Straight Alliance club at Lawrence High School — before there were such clubs at the middle schools — many students came with bleak descriptions of their years there. “During that time, most of the students told awful stories about their experiences in middle school,” SCHOOLS said Jones, who sponsored the LHS GSA club from 2004 to 2012, “including stories of bullying and alienation, feeling that they were alone or even that they were the only person experiencing what they were going through.” But things are beginning to change. After two recent additions, all four of the middle schools in Lawrence now have a teachersponsored club for LGBT students and allies, and the school board is looking at additional ways to support LGBT students districtwide. Jones, now a teacher at South Middle School and sponsor of its GSA Club, said that having a sense of belonging is a basic human need, and support for LGBT students is affirming not only to GSA members, but also to students who may not feel able to come to the club. “GSAs are important because LGBT students need to feel safe and supported in school, in order to be

Ann Evans: She did it for the arts By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

In the winter of 2007, Ann Evans stepped down from her position as executive director of the Lawrence Arts Center, an organization she started in 1975. Once retired, Evans said she found herself with too much down time. She began growing ill. “During the time I was retired, which was about six years, I had major health

Herbert said Friday he was not ready to state an opinion on the issue. “I want to go in with an open mind,” he said. “I want to be fair with everybody involved with this one.” While running for the City Commission in March, Herbert told the JournalWorld tax incentives were too commonplace but there were instances he would support them for new companies. Commissioner Stuart Boley, a retired auditor with the Internal Revenue Service, said in March he wasn’t sure the public was in favor of using tax incentives for development that doesn’t produce a large number of high-quality jobs. Boley spoke to the city commissioners about the Eldridge project Feb. 17, when they passed their intent to issue internal revenue bonds. At the same meeting, commissioners agreed that another waiver for the project — a 15-year, 95-percent tax abatement — was a good deal for the city. Boley suggested the commission accept a tax abatement of only 10 years at 50 percent. Mayor Mike Amyx — the only current commissioner who was on the City Commission when it discussed the tax exemptions for the Eldridge project — voted at the Feb. 17 meeting against the intent to issue industrial revenue bonds. Amyx also voted against the 15-year, 95-percent tax abatement Feb. 17 but voted in favor of a lesser 15year, 85-percent rebate at a later meeting. “I want everybody to understand this is one of the tougher ones to have to deal with,” Amyx said Feb. 17, according to the meeting’s minutes. “I am as I was before a supporter of the industrial bond and the sales tax exemption. My concern happens to be the length of time and the amount of our investment.” Boley and Amyx could not be reached for com-

ment Friday. Expansion plans for the Eldridge Hotel, 705 Massachusetts St., include adding an estimated 54 guest rooms and space for a banquet room. It would expand into the vacant parcel to the south. Construction is estimated to start in October and run through December 2016. Commissioners on Tuesday also will consider allowing the city to issue a right-of-way permit for the expansion project that would close some downtown parking. Parking spots from 701 to 705 Massachusetts St. would be temporarily blocked off, as would the parking lot at Seventh and Vermont streets. The lot would be used as a staging and storage location for the duration of the project, a memorandum states. The Eldridge Hotel has offered to pay the city $6,720 in parking fees for the 28 closed spaces. Owners of Made, at 737 Massachusetts St., and Sweet!, at 717 Massachusetts St., submitted letters to the City Commission stating concerns about sidewalk and parking closures. Managers of River City Holdings, 715 Massachusetts St., sent a letter saying they were worried harm would come to their building during the expansion. River City Holdings owns the building occupied by 715 Restaurant, which is located just to the south of the vacant lot into which the Eldridge Hotel will expand. “River City Holdings has invested significant money, time and effort into rehabilitating and preserving a historic building in downtown Lawrence,” the letter reads. “Any potential damage to the building or restaurant would be expensive, time consuming and harmful to the building, business, history and community of Lawrence.”

Clearly only one of the three is reasonable, but it got me asking a question I often ask on a Monday: Are any new financial institutions opening in town? Indeed, there is news on that front.

group. Those ideas were narrowed down to four with a vote. Participants formed groups, ranging from four to seven members each, and went to work late that night, said Julie Murray, director of corporate and community engagement for the KU School of Business and KU Innovation and Collaboration. The four groups further refined their ideas all day Saturday with the help of seven coaches and mentors, and worked long hours to compile business and marketing plans, prototypes and more through Sunday. Sunday evening, the groups presented to a panel of judges that included Blake Hawley, president and CEO of Integrated Animal Health; Kevin McGinnis, vice president of product at Pinsight Media+; and G.R. Underwood, president and COO of the Bioscience and Technology Business Center at KU. “Entrepreneurship and small businesses, or organically grown businesses, are vital to the community,” Murray said. “I think we live in a risk-averse culture here in the Midwest, so getting people to change the mindset, that it’s OK to take a risk and to start something new and to grow a business here locally, is a good thing to happen, to both you personally as well as to the community.” Three of the four groups’ proposals focused on apps or web-

‘Startup Showcase’ Kansas University’s inaugural “Celebration of Innovation: A Startup Showcase” is planned for 1 to 5 p.m. Oct. 7 at the Bioscience and Technology Business Center, 2029 Becker Drive on KU’s West Campus. The event is geared toward entrepreneurs and business leaders interested in licensing, commercializing, investing or otherwise getting involved with introducsites. The winning idea, announced Sunday evening, was Modern Nomad, an idea for furniture that uses a technique called kerf cutting. It would create easy, snap-assembly pieces of furniture that can be packed and shipped flat, so it’s easy to move. “(Kerf cutting) is a technique that allows you to bend a solid piece of wood into something that’s flexible like paper, which allows you to take a flat piece of wood and, with a couple of cuts in it, turn it into a full chair,” said Michael McCulley, a KU junior majoring in industrial design. “… Our target market is young, urban creatives.” McCulley, who crafted the idea with friend and partner Jack Hoard, said many people in his target market would choose furniture that has similar selling points but tends to be difficult to assemble and poorly made. “What we’re trying to do is make a durable, modern piece that’s very easy to assemble and disassemble,” he said.

marketing professional and member of the Modern Nomad group, said this kind of teamwork is good for the community because it gets people invested in Lawrence as a potential hub for startups. “It shows there’s an interest in a place where you can express your ideas and meet people that want to help those ideas come to fruition,” she said. She also said it’s a good — though very intense — way to network. “If the team works well, you get the best out of each other from it,” Cross said. The fourth member of the Modern Nomad team was Kristin Scheurer, who stepped down from her position as executive director of Douglas County Senior Services in late July. One of the groups had an idea for a website similar to Kickstarter. com that would allow users to pitch ideas for products or services to the general public in order to collect feedback and small contributions

rather than in an industrial park. “The location we have is OK for the folks who work out there, but it is not a high-traffic location, and it is not terrifically convenient for anybody else,” Holt said. The new location will open up some growth possibilities for the credit union, although Holt said the credit union will take a conservative approach in adding new members. Technically, any resident of Douglas County is eligible to become a member of the credit union. But Holt said the credit union will be more selective in whom it targets as new customers.

“We’ll reach out to some other groups, some other businesses that don’t have credit union, and see if their employees would like to have an association with a credit union,” Holt said. “We target employers. We don’t really come in and say we’re for everybody in the community.” The credit union has been very successful in doing that in Wichita. It has been operating there since 1936, and it has served as the credit union for large companies such as Learjet, Pizza Hut, Coleman and others. Holt said the credit union likely will begin reaching out to several businesses in the west

— 5 or 10 cents — from anyone who likes an idea. Another group wanted to bring consolation to mourners through an app that would allow them to share memories, photos, videos and more in connection to a loved one who has passed away. It would also help grieving families cover funeral expenses. The third Web-based idea came from a group of seven students who believe there is a high demand for and low supply of tutors available, and they tend to come at a high price. Their site would allow students to connect and teach each other their skills. Murray said the winning group will be offered a year of free help from Jalenak Accounting Services and the opportunity to participate in the Catalyst program, which “provides an opportunity for entrepreneurially-minded KU students to create and build their own companies,” according to its website. It is a partnership between the School of Business and the Bioscience and Technology Business Center, which housed and co-sponsored the weekend’s events. Murray said she and other organizers hope all four teams will continue to work on their businesses. Last year’s winning team, called PhotoNoteIt, is still together and growing the business, she said. One of its founders, Anthony West, also served as a coach Saturday.

Southern Kansas man catches mountain lion on camera Wellington (ap) — Danny Holden had a hunch that there was a mountain lion living on his southern Kansas property, and an image he found on a trail camera along a wide path last week seems to be proof that he was right. Holden, 51, was cutting up sand near a creek bottom on his Sumner County property on Wednesday when he noticed the image of what appears to be a mountain lion on the camera, The Wichita Eagle reported. “I’ve been waiting a long time for this photo,” Holden said Thursday evening. “I’ve thought we had him down here for several years. My son saw one, and I’ve seen the tracks. This photo, right here, is indisputable proof.” If verified by biologists from the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism, it would be the 13th verified mountain lion in Kansas since 2007. Before that, mountain lions had

not been documented in the state for more than 100 years. Matt Peek, a biologist with the state wildlife department, said there were several documented mountain lion sightings last month in northwest and north-central Kansas. He said he wouldn’t be surprised if the lion on Holden’s property is the same one spotted farther north. “We wouldn’t rule out the possibility that this is the same animal that passed through there,” he said. The mountain lion verified in 2007 was shot by a landowner near Medicine Lodge. Since then, most of the sightings have been recorded by remote cameras placed to photograph deer or other animals. Biologists in Kansas and other states say most of the lions appear to be young males that likely were pushed from areas with high moun-

The variety of hand-applied texture alternatives is limited only by the imagination of the applicant. Step 1: Cover floors and furniture with plastic or cloth drop cloths. Use painter’s tape to protect outlets, switches, woodwork and other areas near the area to be textured. Step 2: Prepare the surface by lightly sanding it and prime unpainted surfaces. Step 3: Wash the area to be textured with a nonresidual cleaner, such as Dirtex or TSP. Allow the area to dry before proceeding. Step 4: Mix water into either pre-mixed or powdered joint compound to create the right consistency. The thicker the mixture the heavier and more pronounced the texture will be. Step 5: Depending on the desired look, thinned compound can be applied with a roller, brush, trowel, rag or many other things. If one method does not produce the desired effect, simply wipe the compound away with a putty knife and start again. Step 6: For an easy eggshell texture, apply a thinly mixed compound with a regular nap roller.

tain lion populations, such as the Rocky Mountains or Black Hills. Peek said there is no proof that mountain lions actually live in Kansas, rather than simply passing through. It’s unlikely that a male lion would spend much time in an area where there are no female lions, he said. “We have never found a kitten, no road kills, no trail camera pictures of kittens. We have no repeated documentation of mountain lions in the same area,” he said. Other than in northwestern Nebraska, near the Black Hills, there has been no evidence documented in the Midwest of mountain lion reproduction, he said. Holden said the 160 acres his family owns, along with neighboring properties along the Chikaskia River, could make an ideal home for a mountain lion.

Step 12: Create a brush swirl effect by applying compound with a trowel and using a heavy drywall brush to swirl the compound around in the desired pattern. Dip the brush into joint compound before starting the process to ensure an even texture throughout. Step 13: Allow the textured surface to dry completely before priming and painting it.

problems,” she said. “I figured it was because my body had time to collapse and that I had better get busy again. I missed being engaged in the community.” A native of Paola, Evans, now 68, said she learned early on that she was meant to work as an administrator for the arts. Evans belonged to her high school’s band as she grew up. One year, as the group prepared for an important concert series with a prominent musician, she found herself doing everything but playing music. “We were so busy getting ready for the concert, and I was in charge of the event,” she said. “By the time the concert came along, I hadn’t rehearsed any of the pieces. I was selling tickets and administrating without even knowing it.” With no real interest in becoming an artist herself, Evans said, her interest grew in facilitating the arts into whichever community she was living in. After graduating from Kansas University with a degree in elementary education, Evans discovered she wasn’t cut out for the teaching life, although she considers her year-long run teaching fourth grade a valuable experience. Living and working in places such as London, Boston and upstate New York, Evans recalled, she found herself working at an arts center in the Empire State, a position she previously knew nothing about. And a position that would ultimately change her life. “I didn’t even know these kinds of opportunities were there before,” she said. “Most of us didn’t grow up with these things, we had to learn about it as adults. I was fortunate that I was in that place. It was luck, pure luck.” Moving from one job to the next, Evans and her then-husband found themselves back in Lawrence in the mid 1970s. Simultaneously, a group of community leaders and city commissioners in town decided the area was ready for an arts center. Evans heard about the upcoming project through her sister and decided to apply for the executive di-

rector position. “In hindsight, I was probably the only one who applied who had worked for an arts center before,” she said. “They hired me in the fall of ’74, and we opened in the spring of ’75 with one exhibit and one workshop.” The center originally opened inside the Carnegie Building, 200 W. Ninth St. Prior to the opening, the building sat empty for a number of years, suffering significant damage during the vacancy. “All that was renovated when we opened was the front center of one floor, like a quarter of the building,” Evans said. “It was a month-to-month struggle finding funds to renovate the building. There was a lot of work to be done before we could have programs in it.” Not only was Evans actively involved in jumpstarting the center’s programs and exhibits, said Ric Averill, her longtime friend and colleague at the arts center, but she also took a hands-on approach to some of the grimier issues at hand. “She did everything from bailing water out of the basement to drywalling and painting,” he said. “She just lived and breathed the Lawrence Arts Center.” From the mid ’70s to 2002, Evans worked tooth and nail to expand and enhance everything the Lawrence Arts Center had to offer. Along the way, the center veered away from the stereotypical and expanded its levels of involvement. Today, the organization boasts a pre-school, classes and clinics and features plays, dances and musical events. Over the years, Evans’ personal tastes began to

change alongside the center’s interests. “I’ve been evolving the more I’ve been exposed to different art forms,” she said. “I’m particularly interested in the visual arts, but the more I get exposed, the more I learn, and I get even more excited about it.” In one way or another, the Lawrence Arts Center and staff have touched most of the people of Lawrence, Evans said. “My kids of course grew up there,” Evans said. “They and lots of other Lawrence kids grew up with the art classes, theater, dance, swing, same as they would go to baseball or soccer practice and have games. They did both, and it was just a part of growing up in Lawrence, Kansas.” Even the Lawrence Arts Center’s current CEO, Susan Tate, can recall the center’s early days. “My family and I loved coming to the arts center starting in the late ‘80s in the Carnegie,” Tate said. “Our daughter attended classes, and my husband and I attended many events over the years. We have a great affection for Ann and what she’s done in creating the arts center.” Tom Carmody, who served for several years on the center’s board of directors, said much of the organization’s early success can be attributed to Evans’ easy-going and affable personality — and her tireless work ethic. “And she loves art, and

she loves kids,” he said. “And she is so good at both. And she’s a very positive person, and very determined. It doesn’t surprise me that she kept it going.” For as long as Evans kept the arts center running, the community has been just as involved, she’s quick to add. “People say, ‘If you build it, they will come,’ but that’s not necessarily true. If you build it, it can still be an absolute failure,” she said. “But in this case it wasn’t. It’s because of a need within the community. People understood that they really wanted arts in the community, and the support and the freedom we’ve had over the years has been astounding.” Arguably one of the culminations of Evans’ career was the center’s 2002 move to its new building at 940 New Hampshire St., said Ben Ahlvers, the center’s exhibitions director. Ahlvers echoed Evans’ sentiment about support from the community, noting that Lawrence provided the demand for the arts and Evans was more than happy to provide that service. “I mean, if you look around, you don’t see many art centers of this size for a town of this size. You’re more likely to find a place like this in Philadelphia or Chicago,” he said. “And Lawrence wants it, otherwise it wouldn’t be here.” Last weekend, the center celebrated its 40th anniversary with a ’70s-themed block party in front of the

building. As Evans mingled with the crowd and spent time visiting with her granddaughters, she noticed a large number of familiar faces in the crowd, several of whom came over to speak with her. “Quite a few kids now have come back here, and their children are in the programs, just like my grandkids are,” she said, recalling a slide show of past arts center generations. “It was really fun to see those and recognize the young people. We watched them grow up.” Last winter, after realizing that she missed the community and deciding that retirement wasn’t for her, Evans said, she accepted a position with KU’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute. The institute focuses on providing short college courses to participants above the age of 50, and her position, Evans jokes, is something a bit more “age appropriate.” The institute’s director, Jim Peters, said Evans is both an essential and pleasant part of the organization’s team. “She’s a bright spot in the day. She comes into work and brightens the workplace,” he said. “Even today, there are many people who come to classes who have some sort of prior experience with Ann. “I think she’s a big asset to the city of Lawrence,” he added. While Evans continues to broaden the horizons of Kansas’ senior citizens, Averill noted, her lasting legacy will always be the Lawrence Arts Center, and that organization will brighten the community for generations to come. “They just keep getting better and they keep getting bigger,” he said. “And she started it all.”

Smoking neighbor makes for stuffy home Dear Annie: Recently, new neighbors moved in next door. They seem nice, but the husband smokes on their porch, which is only a few yards from our home. It is close enough that we can smell cigarette smoke in our bedrooms. My husband is highly allergic to cigarette smoke. While we respect the neighbor’s right to smoke on his property, we don’t appreciate the secondhand smoke in our home. We do not use air conditioning and often leave our windows open. Since the husband comes home late and smokes after we are asleep, we have been closing our windows as soon as we go to bed, which makes for unpleasant nights. We also have to close the windows on weekends

San Fran doc has Pelosi connection Does the economy serve the people? Or the other way around? Some contend that any interference with the free market leads to socialism, or worse. Others feel that technology has allowed unregulated markets to trample on the poor and the traditions of society, while ruthlessly disrupting all other businesses. The free market economy and the role of technology as a stimulant, or an accelerant, is the subject of “San Francisco 2.0” (8 p.m., HBO), directed by Alexandra Pelosi. Pelosi’s hometown has been all but transformed by the Bay Area’s digital gold rush. Recent tax incentives from the city have encouraged Silicon Valley companies to relocate to the City by the Bay, and Silicon Valley millionaires have turned the city into their commuter bedroom. Living in San Francisco is now seen as a “perk” of the tech boom, a trend that has made the city unaffordable for many longtime residents. One city native gives Pelosi a tour of his neighborhood’s vanishing urban murals and vibrant streets, once filled with children and families, now replaced by restaurants selling $56 hamburgers. In addition to this radical gentrification, “2.0” documents how whole business and merchant cultures are being bowled over by the arrival of tech money. The San Francisco flower market, a venerable institution and a key part of the floral industry for the entire West Coast, has been displaced to make way for a tech-financed high-rise. Pelosi, the daughter of the former speaker of the House and director of the 2002 campaign travelogue “Journeys With George,” a sympathetic look at George W. Bush, uses her connections. She doesn’t merely interview activists; she also speaks to California Gov. Jerry Brown, current San Francisco mayor Ed Lee, former mayors Willie Brown and Art Agnos, as well as tech entrepreneurs and venture capitalists.

Grocery plans The community should support plans to bring a full-service grocery store back to downtown.

t’s good to hear that the focus of plans for a new grocery story in downtown Lawrence has shifted back to the former Borders bookstore building at Seventh and New Hampshire streets. Reusing that building seems to be a far better idea than trying to include a grocery store in a larger development at 11th and Massachusetts streets. Downtown and East Lawrence residents have been eager to bring a fullservice grocery to the area, and the owners of Checkers, which now has just one location at 23rd and Louisiana streets, have expressed a willingness to make that happen. Supporters of this idea originally focused on the Borders building, but Checkers reportedly was unable to reach an agreement to buy that property. Some plans were floated to include a Checkers store on a multi-story project being planned by Lawrence businessmen Doug Compton and Mike Treanor at 11th and Massachusetts, but that plan raised some concerns, especially over the unconventional parking arrangements that would be necessary to accommodate Checkers customers. After Compton and Treanor purchased the Borders building, new options opened up, and the developers reportedly are working on a deal to move ahead with a store at that location. A grocery would be a good reuse of that building, which is in a good location with much better access to customer parking. It seems that no project like this can go forward in Lawrence without at least a little controversy, but finding a way to accommodate Checkers or a similar store at this site would be good for the community. Land-use restrictions currently prohibit a grocery store in the building, but the Checkers owners say they are committed to working with neighboring property owners to address their concerns about traffic or other issues. Other stores that may be considering the site could make a similar effort. It seems that the recent flurry of downtown residential development would help support such a store and perhaps make downtown living more attractive to other residents. The store also would be convenient for people who live north and east of downtown, as well as people who work in the area and want to pick up a few groceries on their way home. Downtown once was the site of several full-service grocery stores, and it would be nice to have such a store in the area again. Efforts to convert the Borders building for that purpose deserve the community’s support.

Trump even loopier than the left Washington — America’s loopy left is enamored of someone who becomes cranky about bobblehead figurines. Sober Democrats are queasy about nominating Hillary Clinton, who has much to apologize for but no aptitude for apologies. Those Republicans who hope she is denied the nomination are perhaps imprudent. And even Republicans who recoil from Donald Trump’s repulsiveness might want to defer the delicious pleasure of witnessing his apoplexy when he joins, as surely he will, the ranks of those he most despises — “losers.” In 2011, Bernie Sanders said “we’ve got some very, very serious problems” because the Founding Fathers bobbleheads sold at the Smithsonian Museum of American History were made in China. He exclaimed: “A museum owned by the people of America — a museum which talks about our own history — cannot even have products manufactured in the United States by American workers?” In a hilarious video assembled by the high-spirited folks at Reason.TV, Sanders summons Smithsonian officials to his office to grovel and promise to mend their ways. Sanders’ wrath did not produce a complete purge: The museum still sells imported gimcracks. Clinton, who could lose to Sanders, might actually think she apologized concerning her private email

Some operatives thought it shrewd to share this calculation with The New York Times, which headlined its scoop “Hillary Clinton to Show More Humor and Heart, Aides Say.” (The Onion’s take: “Campaign Staffers Making Progress Condi-

tioning Hillary Clinton to Replicate Emotions.”) Trump believes he should be president because of his business savvy. But he has, in effect, shrunk the large inheritance he received from his father. In 1982, Forbes reported Trump’s net worth at $200 million. Vox calculates that if he had put that in an index fund “at a 0.15 percent fee, he’d have $6.3 billion today after dividend taxes, almost certainly more than he actually does.” And an AP analysis showed that if in 1988 he had put his money in an index fund he would have $13 billion. (He has not really revealed his net worth, but any Trump reticence is as welcome as it is rare.) Only Trump is thinking transgressively, which the intelligentsia encourages us to do. Sanders just wants a lot more of wealth redistributions. Clinton wants a bit less than a lot more. Trump, however, has made something novel discussible: He proposes turning America into a police state in order to facilitate ethnic cleansing. When asked whether the forced deportation of 11 million illegal immigrants — almost as many people as passed through Ellis Island in 60 years — might take five or even 10 years, Trump scoffed: “Really good management” will get this done in at most two years. To meet a two-year deadline, his “management” wizardry will have to quickly produce a network of informers to assist at least 100,000 new

law enforcement officers equipped with battering rams and bloodhounds. Some Republicans think such ideas are not altogether helpful to their party’s attempt to present a pleasant face to temperate voters who are fond of civil liberties. However, some Republicans also worry that if Trump’s inevitable collapse comes too soon, his supporters might move en masse to Ted Cruz before the “SEC primary” of Southern states on March 1. On that day, there and elsewhere, at least 704 delegates will be chosen, more than five times the 133 allocated by February’s four events (Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Nevada). Some Republicans say Cruz has a real if narrow path to the nomination, but no plausible path to 270 electoral votes. As the nominee, Cruz would, these Republicans warn, lose so badly in red or purple states choosing senators in 2016 (Wisconsin, Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Colorado, Florida, New Hampshire, Nevada, Illinois) that he would cost Republicans control of the Senate. It is, however, unclear that Trumpkins will all migrate to one candidate when their hero departs, strutting while slouching. And although deferring delights can be virtuous, nothing is now more virtuous than scrubbing, as soon as possible, the Trump stain from public life. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

PUBLIC FORUM

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Sept. 28, 1915: years “Garcia Burriss ago ... had occasion IN 1915 in Police court this morning to reflect on the high cost of yelling in Lawrence. If it’s going to cost $3.25 for every yelp, Mr. Burriss reflected, the joy of going kiyoodling down the main street of the city when everybody else is in bed will be materially lessened.... And he had to pay for yells that had grown cold, after all the loss of sleep that had been caused to people that heard them had been made up months ago. It was last winter that Burriss turned loose the noise that was in him one dark night on Massachusetts street. He had a friend with him and they both yelled. Burris was recognized by officers who didn’t catch him at the time, and he got out of town right off and stayed away until lately. Recently he was seen in town by an officer who remembered him as one of the volunteer vocalizers of the winter months. ‘Judge, I only yelled twice,’ said Burriss when he was told to stand up in Police court today. ‘I fine you $6.50,’ said the judge, thereby establishing a tariff on yells in the city limits, which will stand until some vocal free trader gets into power at the city hall.” “Much discussion and little business was the order at the weekly meeting of the city commissioners today. The discussion followed the discovery by the city fathers that there was not much business before them.... The commission still is debating the advisability of taking over the trust fund of the proposed mausoleum which private capital is to build adjoining Oak Hill cemetery. Commissioner Holyfield is in favor of having the city accept the trust, but Commissioner Cleland is inclined to think there would be difficulties which the city would encounter later on.” “The annual convention of the United Brethren church of the state of Kansas will begin in Lawrence tomorrow morning. Several hundred delegates and visitors are expected from all parts of the state.”

Housing action

Good stewards?

To the editor: Pope Francis went directly to a homeless shelter after he spoke to Congress last Thursday. In Lawrence, 21 faith groups called for a campaign to address the plight of the homeless last spring. Although seven long years have passed since the onset of the Great Recession, the problem of homelessness remains acute, even among those of us with jobs. Today, over a third of the people at the Lawrence Community Shelter have jobs. Forty of those workers have permanent jobs and 35 have full-time jobs, but their average pay is just $10.21 an hour. That’s above the minimum wage, but not much. And since the shelter can house only 125 people, many people in similar situations remain out of luck. Lawrence needs to take decisive action to resolve this problem. That takes money as well as good will. Can we find the money? I believe we can. Over the summer we saw road projects everywhere. Plainly, we need decent roads without potholes. But we also need decent housing that is truly affordable. Currently, according to the federal government, a family with one minimum-wage income cannot afford the local fair-market rent for a two-bedroom unit anywhere in the United States — anywhere. Locally, the fair market rent for a two-bedroom unit is $815. To afford that rent without falling into poverty, full-time workers in Lawrence need at least $15.67 an hour. The city can’t wait for jobs like that to materialize. We need action, and sooner rather than later. David Smith, Lawrence

To the editor: George Will wrote a very interesting column challenging the factual rhetoric of Pope Francis. His observations about the pope’s position on environmental, social and economic issues are not without merit. While I am sure these matters are of real concern to the leaders of the Catholic Church, I wonder how seriously the public is willing to consider the greater human and moral issues inherent in the pope’s pronouncements. Given the necessary separation between church and state, the assumption is that there is no moral relationship between the two. While the majority of those working in the social/political arena may believe in the existence of God, there is the belief that what goes on in the political arena is of no concern to God. Christians, on the other hand, believe that the Creator is not some abstract pie in the sky, but has a real concern about what his people are doing with their talents, as they will one day be held accountable for all their activities. While the Church does not pretend to know all the economic, scientific and political answers of the moment, the church, as God’s earthly witness, is in a superior position to make judgements as to the correctness of what is going on among his people. Whether our primary identification in life is with society or with the church, it makes — Compiled by Sarah St. John no difference. In the mind of God, “We are all our brother’s keeper.” May he find us all to be good stewards of the talents that he Read more Old Home Town at has given to each of us.

TERRY BYRNE AND PAUL TRAP, USA TODAY

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration has allowed its employees to stay on the job despite internal investigations that found they had distributed drugs, lied to the authorities or committed other serious misconduct, newly disclosed records show. Lawmakers expressed dismay this year that the drug agency had not fired agents who investigators found attended “sex parties” with prostitutes paid with drug cartel money while they were on assignment in Colombia. The Justice Department opened an inquiry into whether the DEA is able to adequately detect and punish wrongdoing by its agents. Records from the DEA’s disciplinary files show that was hardly the only instance in which the DEA opted not to fire employees despite apparently serious misconduct. Of the 50 employees the DEA’s Board of Professional Conduct recommended be fired after misconduct investigations opened since 2010, only 13 were actually terminated, the records show. And the drug agency was forced to take some of them back after a federal appeals board intervened. In one case listed on an internal log, the review board recommended that an employee be fired for “distribution of drugs,” but a human resources official in charge of meting out discipline imposed a 14-day suspension instead. The log shows officials opted not to fire employees who falsified official records, had an “improper association with a criminal element” or misused government vehicles, sometimes after drinking. “If we conducted an investigation, and an employee actually got terminated, I was surprised,” said Carl Pike, a former DEA internal affairs investigator. “I was truly, truly surprised. Like, wow, the system actually got this guy.” The log, obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, does not include details of misconduct or the agency’s reasons for choosing one punishment over another. But it illustrates how uncommon it is for DEA employees to lose their jobs because of misconduct. “There is a culture of protection internally that has to change. If there’s a bad apple, they need v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

U.S. foreign-born population on pace to break 125-year record Numbers carry political implications Alan Gomez USA TODAY

The foreign-born population in the USA has increased so rapidly that it could break a 125-year-old record within the next decade, according to a Pew Research Center report out Monday. The percentage of people living in the USA who were born outside the country reached 13.7% in 2015 and is projected to hit a record 14.9% in 2025, the report

said. A high of 14.8% was set in 1890, when waves of Irish, Italian, Polish and other immigrants were coming to the USA. The findings come at a critical time in the presidential campaign as candidates from both parties debate the proper role of immigration. The foreign-born population represents a growing share of the electorate that Democrats and Republicans court because that voting bloc is big enough to tip presidential elections. The term “foreign-born” includes naturalized citizens, legal permanent residents, visa holders and undocumented immigrants. Ali Noorani, executive director

of the National Immigration Forum, a group that supports immigrant rights, said the influx of foreigners proves the USA remains a beacon of hope across the world, and politicians should

accept that role for the country. “The pure politics of this is that candidates from whichever party should view these numbers as the next generation of voters,” Noorani said.

Roy Beck, executive director of NumbersUSA, a group that advocates for lower levels of immigration, said Donald Trump and others tap into a legitimate fear that immigration levels are getting out of control. He uses the example of the late 19th century, when the USA had an overabundance of workers competing for limited jobs. That proved harmful to immigrants who struggled to get ahead, a situation Beck said is happening again. “This has been our point all along: If you want to have a good situation for immigrants, there’s a threshold that you’ve got to keep it below,” Beck said.

word,” he said to applause from the crowd. “In God’s merciful plan, love and peace triumph over all.” Francis’ last official words: “May God bless you all — God bless America.” His flight, a private American Airlines jet, departed for Rome around 7:45 p.m. ET. Francis’ Sunday Mass, celebrated a stone’s throw away from the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art made famous in the movie Rocky, capped a busy day for the pontiff. Catholics, as well as nonCatholics who are simply fans of “the people’s pope,” began flooding the Benjamin Franklin Parkway early on an overcast Sunday, hoping to land a prime spot to bid Francis farewell. The parkway was dotted with big screens to show the 78-year-old pontiff deliver his final message to the American people before his return to Rome. The crowds were packed as far away as City Hall, more than a mile from the pope’s altar. The Mass could be heard across much of downtown, where crowds stood rapt, watching the celebration on the big screens. “We are having a blessed time,” said Maureen Cobb, 65, a retired teacher from Canal Winchester, Ohio. Steve Mitchell, 61, a deacon from the Detroit Archdiocese, gave up as the crowds around him grew unbearably dense. Mitchell said he wasn’t surprised by the huge numbers of people going to great effort to see the pope. “It’s a historic mo-

ment,” he said. “This is a guy who has caught the attention of everyone. He’s everyone’s pope, nonCatholics, even atheists.” Before the Mass, Francis made an unscheduled stop at Saint Joseph’s University to view a newly dedicated statue commemorating the 50th anniversary of Nostra Aetate, a Vatican II document that helped bolster the relationship between the Catholic and Jewish faiths. The document highlighted the historic bond between the two faiths and dismissed past efforts by the church to convert Jews. Saint Joseph’s, a Jesuit university, established the Institute for Jewish-Catholic Relations in 1967 in response to the Vatican call for strengthening the interfaith relationship. Earlier Sunday, Francis met privately with a group of clergy sex abuse victims. In remarks to bishops from around the globe, Francis said “grievous harm” has been caused by the scandal that has marred the church for more than a decade. The pontiff promised to hold those responsible for such offenses accountable. “I remain overwhelmed with shame that men entrusted with

to be fired, if not prosecuted, and that’s just not happening,” said Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, the chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. “Federal law enforcement should be held to the highest standard.” At a minimum, Chaffetz said, the DEA and other agencies should be able to sideline troubled agents quickly by taking away their security clearances, a step the drug agency takes infrequently. The DEA has long faced criticism for how it handles misconduct by its 11,000 employees. This spring, the Justice Department said it had “serious concerns” about the discipline meted out to six agents who left a handcuffed college student in a holding cell for five days with no food or water. Two of the agents received brief suspensions; four others were given letters of reprimand. The student, Daniel Chong, won a $4.1 million settlement. Years before that, the Justice Department’s inspector general faulted the DEA for “penalties that appear to be too lenient.” Never has the criticism been more pointed than in March, when the inspector general revealed that DEA agents had at-

tended “sex parties” while posted in Colombia. The agents received suspensions of two to 10 days. Two weeks later, exasperated lawmakers pressed the DEA’s administrator, Michele Leonhart, on why she hadn’t fired them. Federal law doesn’t allow it, she replied. “If somebody murdered somebody, could you fire him?” asked Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C. “If someone murdered someone, there would be criminal charges, and that’s how they would be fired,” she said. Leonhart resigned a week later. Then-attorney general Eric Holder ordered the Justice Department’s own internal ethics watchdog to conduct a “systematic review” of the DEA’s disciplinary process in April. (That office also has faced criticism for being too soft on misconduct.) Spokesman Patrick Rodenbush said the review is ongoing. The DEA’s internal affairs log shows investigators review more than 200 cases each year and often clear the agents involved. When they do find wrongdoing, the most common outcome is either a letter of caution or a brief unpaid suspension. In fewer than 6% of those cases did DEA managers recommend firing. In some of those cases, the agency allowed em-

ployees to quit. More often, it settled on a lesser punishment. DEA spokesman Joseph Moses said that often happens because it’s not until after the Board of Professional Conduct makes its recommendations that employees get to fully present their side of the story. That can prompt human resources officials ultimately to opt for lighter punishment.

“DEA agents should be held to a high standard but not an unrealistically high standard,” said Scott Ando, a former internal affairs investigator for the agency who heads Chicago’s Independent Police Review Authority. “You can’t expect every agent to get fired for every transgression, because they’re people, and they sometimes make mistakes.” The process can be tedious. DEA records show the agency had not finished some of the misconduct cases it opened in 2011, including two serious enough that the agency’s Board of Professional Conduct recommended the employee be fired. Even when employees are fired, records show the punishment doesn’t always stick because the agents were reinstated by the federal Merit Systems Protection Board, the independent body that reviews federal disciplinary matters. In one case, the board blocked the DEA from firing an agent who left a voicemail for his girlfriend threatening “to give the couple’s consensually made sex video” to her 8-year-old daughter as a birthday present. “The general feeling throughout senior leadership at DEA was that it’s a ridiculous system,” said James Capra, the former head of operations for the drug agency. “We used to joke that this guy got

IN BRIEF CHINA’S XI SPEAKS AT U.N. ON EMPOWERING WOMEN

World leaders meeting Sunday at the United Nations in New York proclaimed their commitment to expand opportunities for women, noting that gender equality is integral to uplift all people. Chinese President Xi Jinping co-chaired segments of a meeting on gender equality and women’s empowerment with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon. He also pledged that his country would give $10 million to U.N. Women. Xi added that China would also initiate 100 health-oriented projects in the next five years, help create schools and host 30,000 women from developing countries in China-based training programs. The Chinese leader’s stewardship of a meeting dedicated to women’s empowerment was controversial, given China’s poor record on human rights. “Xi hosting a meeting on women’s rights at the U.N. while persecuting feminists? Shameless. #FreeThe20,” Hillary Clinton tweeted Sunday. The FreeThe20 campaign

the tender care of children violated these little ones and caused grievous harm,” he said. “I am profoundly sorry. God weeps.” The Vatican said Francis met with five adult victims — three women and two men — who were abused by clergy, family members or teachers when they were minors. In his address to bishops, Francis focused on the difficulties of supporting the family structure in a rapidly changing world. “Needless to say, Our understanding, shaped by the interplay of ecclesial faith and the conjugal experience of sacramental grace, must not lead us to disregard the unprecedented changes taking place in contemporary society, with their social, cultural — and now juridical — effects on family bonds,” Francis said. “These changes affect all of us, believers and non-believers alike. Christians are not ‘immune’ to the changes of their times.” Francis also visited the Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility, where he met with dozens of inmates. The pontiff offered the prisoners — who included murderers, rapists and mobsters — words of hope and spoke to them about forgiveness and redemption. Francis told the inmates that Scripture says Jesus washed his apostles’ feet at the Last Supper. The pope has repeated that ritual — washing the feet of elderly people with disabilities, as well as young people at a juvenile detention center. The pontiff said the inmates were not alone: “All of us have something we need to be cleansed of or purified from.”

fired, but he’s just going to get his job back.” Those few who ultimately were fired engaged in what records portray as an array of serious misconduct. Three were ousted after the agency accused them of hiring prostitutes while working in Colombia in 2012, an episode unrelated to the agents who attended sex parties in the country. Two also were accused of lying to investigators. A decade earlier, state prosecutors took the unusual step of indicting one of those agents, Jude Tanella, on a manslaughter charge after he shot a drug suspect in the back as they struggled; a federal court said the shooting was justified. Tanella’s lawyer, Lawrence Berger, who represented another of the fired agents, said, “It’s a shame that they’ve been treated in such a fashion.” Another agent, Jeffrey Prather, was fired after admitting he let civilians use “DEA-issued fully automatic weapons” as part of a security training business he had set up, according to merit board records. The board concluded that Prather, who it said established his own religion, had persuaded “vulnerable and struggling women” to have sex with him “by telling them they would be ‘healed’ ” if they did. Prather said the case against him “was a witch hunt.” Corrections & Clarifications

Feds returning to local crime fight Five more cities will get federal help as Justice Department calls summit in October Kevin Johnson @bykevinj USA TODAY

Mounting concern over recent violent crime surges in some U.S. cities has prompted the Justice Department to call a meeting next month of more than a dozen local law enforcement officials to deal with persistent public safety threats, from criminal gangs to domestic violence, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates told USA TODAY in an interview. The Justice Department summit builds on an increasing federal re-engagement with local police whose forces in the past WASHINGTON

two years have been buffeted by questions over lethal force policies and flagging public trust. Earlier this year, in the face of rising tensions between the police and the public in communities across the USA, a special White House policing task force issued a slate of recommendations aimed at restoring public confidence. The Justice Department also has opened inquiries into the operations of more than 20 police departments across the country since 2009, including earlier this year in Baltimore where days of civil unrest was sparked by the death of a local man in police custody.

Although violent crime has been in decline in much of the country for years, federal authorities are recommitting resources, some of which were directed to address anti-terror concerns in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, to battle troubling spikes in local crime. Yates on Monday is set to identify five cities — Compton, Calif.; Little Rock; West Memphis, Ark.; Newark; and Flint, Mich. — which are poised to get an infusion of federal help to battle violence even as most of the country has enjoyed relative calm. “Every community is different and every community has their own unique challenges,” Yates said. “For us to be most effective, we really need to be digging in at the local level ... to fashion our

But the designation provides cities unique access to existing federal expertise in such areas as gang investigations, drug-trafficking inquiries, the pursuit of violent fugitives, intelligence gathering and other strategies that may be lacking at local public safety agencies. In some small departments, the deputy attorney general said, problems may be as fundamental as having no experience requesting federal grant money for use in hiring additional police officers or to purchase needed equipment. The October meeting, Yates said, is another attempt to “try to find out what’s working and what is not working.”

Many of the author’s fellow travelers will be seeking temporary quarters, like this government-run transit camp for migrants in Nickelsdorf, Austria. I’m home. I arrived Saturday night on a direct train from Munich. This last leg of my journey was mostly efficient and ultimately anti-climactic. I spent at least an hour of it calling and being called by NPR from California. We were going to talk about the trip, but cellphone coverage was really bad, and we kept getting interrupted. I spent another hour trying to decode the barroom banter of a half-dozen German high school students. “Berlin?” two young men from Afghanistan, asked me as the train finally coasted into the German capital’s main station — the impressively steel-and-glass raftered Hauptbahnhof — about seven hours later. I nodded. “Yes!” came the reply. I threw a glance up and down the platform. These two, looking a little overwhelmed and diminutive BERLIN

amid the big city that awaited them, were the only migrants I could see. The flood of people I had witnessed landing on Greece’s nearest point to Turkey eight days ago in inflatable dinghies had become a trickle. On this night, getting off this train, at this place, there was no migrant crisis. I knew, however, that Berlin’s main center for registering migrants was less than a half-mile away from where we were standing. When I visited it in late August, it was teeming with new arrivals. As I watched the two Afghans recede into the station’s lightfilled interior I thought: That’s your tomorrow and beyond. Most of the people I have been traveling with for the past 11⁄2 weeks will be searching for home for some time. Many may never find it, not in Europe anyway.

Mohammad Helani, 12, right, with another migrant, is still looking for home. They come because of wars, because of the threat of death, because of economic deprivation that is a kind of death, because they need and want more, because, for now, they can. Twenty minutes after I climbed the five flights of stairs to our apartment in central Berlin, I received another message from Mohammad Helani, a 12-year-old from Syria. I had last seen him and his family in Serbia, then we came close to reuniting in Vienna. We had been keeping in touch since on WhatsApp. He told me they would be leaving Austria on Monday. Because the Helanis are still searching for a home, I don’t want to say more than that right now. “Haw are u,” Mohammad wrote, “I miss you so mush.”

French planes strike Islamic State camp Prime minister says act was ‘self-defense’ Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

The French government joined the air campaign against Islamic State in Syria and destroyed one of the group’s training camps in a bombing raid, President François Hollande announced Sunday. French armed forces had previously bombed militant targets in neighboring Iraq as part of a U.S.-led coalition, but France had not attacked the group in Syria out of fear that doing so would in-

directly prop up the government of President Bashar Assad. France said it launched the airstrike after concluding the group was using its territory in Syria to train for attacks in Europe. “We are acting in self-defense,” French Prime Minister Manuel Valls told TV station BFMTV. Meanwhile, nearly 30,000 foreign recruits — including more than 250 Americans — have poured into Syria in the past year, many to join the Islamic State, The New York Times reported, citing unnamed intelligence and law enforcement officials. Hollande said Sunday that the strike by six French warplanes, which followed days of surveil-

lance flights, had “totally destroyed” a training camp near the eastern city of Deir ez-Zur. The airstrike came as Iraq’s military said Sunday it agreed to share “security and intelligence information” about the militant group with Russia, Iran and Syria. The Iraqi military’s joint operations command said in a statement that Russia was concerned by “the presence of thousands of terrorists from Russia who are carrying out criminal acts with Daesh,” the Arabic name for the Islamic State. President Obama is scheduled to meet Monday with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the United Nations in New York.

Q: Why write this book? A: So many people along the campaign trail would come to me, their hearts broken, their bodies broken, and they just gave me a feeling that I needed to put my arms around them and tell them, “It’s OK. We’ve been in this together. I understand your struggle, and help is on the way.” I am strong now, really strong, and it’s time now for me to be that person I told them I would be. Q: You write USA TODAY about your Ann Romney faith as a Mormon, which became an issue in your husband’s presidential campaigns. Ben Carson says he wouldn’t vote for a Muslim for president. Would you? A: In our Constitution, which is the thing that makes the United States so wonderful, is: There shall be no litmus test for the presidency with regards to religion. ... I would expect that at some point in the history of the United States that might happen. You need to look at the character of the man or the woman and say do they meet the standards of character that I know would represent the United States well. That should be the litmus test. Q: Given that litmus test, would you vote for Donald Trump for president? A: I believe that we will get to the point where there will be someone who can unify and bring all sides together. At that point, I suspect I would support that nominee. Q: How does your MS affect your daily life now? A: I am Charlie Brown with a little cloud over my head, waiting for that shoe to drop always, knowing that I’m very vulnerable. I feel like I’m walking a tightrope all the time. I know that I can fall off. ... I never want to go back where I was. NOW SHOWING AT USATODAY.COM

Fall colors delayed by warmth @usatodayweather USA TODAY

One of the warmest Septembers on record is delaying fall foliage in many parts of the country, though a few spots are beginning to see some color. Despite the delay, experts expect the peak leaf-peep show to go on as scheduled in October and November. “The significant late-summer (and now early fall) warm spell has slowed the advance of color development,” said Michael Snyder, the chief foliage forecaster in Vermont, where fall colors typically bring 3.5 million visitors and $460 million to the state. Cities such as Boston, New York, Chicago, Dallas and Denver are all on track to see a record warm September, according to the Weather Channel, so peak fall colors will likely be delayed across the country until October. Temperatures over the next three weeks are most important for beautiful fall colors, according to Marc Abrams, professor of Forest Ecology and Physiology at Penn State University. He said the weather during these weeks is more crucial for color than all the weather that’s preceded it this year. In addition to the Northeast, Abrams said good colors are issued sweatpants, the Coeur d’Alene Press reported. ILLINOIS Springfield: The

REPORTS: VOLKSWAGEN WAS WARNED ABOUT SOFTWARE Volkswagen technicians and parts supplier Bosch warned the German automaker years ago about using sophisticated software to avoid emissions regulations, according to reports in German newspapers. In the wake of the Environmental Protection Agency’s accusation that the company used software to thwart emissions tests in the U.S., Volkswagen said the software affected engines in 11 million cars, the majority in Europe. The ‘Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung’ said VW technicians had warned about the practice four years ago, according to a source on the company’s supervisory board.

‘Radical change’ won’t come until carmakers, tech giants collaborate Marco della Cava @marcodellacava USA TODAY

The Bay Area now teems with tech companies interested in engineering the next generation of vehicles as well as outposts of major automakers determined not to be left behind by the coming revolution. So if this is a race, who will win? The answer is easy: Consumers. That’s one of many conclusions to be drawn by a report from Deloitte Consulting, out Thursday. In “The Future of Mobility: How Transportation Technology and Social Trends Are Creating a New Business Ecosystem,” the firm argues that transportation shifts over the next five to 15 years will reduce the cost of personal transportation from 97 cents to 31 cents per mile. Deloitte lays out the future this way. Tech companies are seen as the disrupters, companies such as Google, Uber and Tesla that are rethinking the traditional approach to cars who “do not have vested stakes to protect.” Automakers are called the insiders, who do have a stake in ensuring a very gradual pace of change that preserves legacy investments in manufacturing and research. “So far, none of the incumbents appear prepared to make big bets on radical change,” the report says. But while technology giants and legacy automakers at present seem to be battling for autonomous and driver-assist tech bragging rights, the two will become SAN FRANCISCO

Netflix and competitor Amazon are expected to spend, collectively, more than $9 billion annually on acquired and original content for their streaming services by 2020, estimates research firm Ampere Analysis in a new report. Netflix has said it expects to spend about $5 billion on content in 2016. Amazon’s heightened competition with Netflix will lead to the increased annual spending. “The allocation of more investment to original programming is illustrative of the combined staying power of show loyalty and the security which originals offer (and) ... reflects the newfound scale of players like Netflix,” said Ampere research director Richard Broughton. Netflix and Amazon “ now have sufficient brand presence that they no longer have to be wholly reliant on third-party titles. In fact, it’s now their brands which are increasingly driving awareness of certain new shows.” In other Netflix news, the streaming video provider announced a new virtual-reality app for Samsung Gear VR devices and the ability to subscribe and pay for the service directly on Apple devices.

Intriguingly, Google just started logging autonomous-car testing miles in Austin. Corwin echoes the report in pointing out that the other speed bumps for the four-phase evolution are government regulation and psychological acceptance of driverless cars sharing the road with human motorists. “Government regulations are one thing, and they’ll have to be worked out, but I think we’ll eventually get over the fear” of self-driving cars, Corwin says. “Some drivers out there today simply aren’t that safe. And ultimately the promise of all this tech is safety.” Google’s self-driving cars have been in more than a dozen accidents after a million miles of testing, but in each case the fault has been with the human driving the traditional vehicle, most often rear-ending the Google car. While it may well take a while to get to this new vision of the automotive future, the destination is a rosy place, according to the Deloitte report. Specifically, it’s a land where vehicles never crash, traffic jams are rarities, energy demands drop, parking lots vanish, and police refocus on crime since cars won’t break the law. Sounds idyllic. But it may still be a ways down the road. “In our ongoing conversations with auto industry leaders, they repeatedly and collectively argue that outsiders simply do not appreciate the sheer complexity of developing a vehicle today,” the report says.

Nike (NKE) just scored another a slam dunk: The stock hit an all-time high Friday. That’s not easy to do in a market like this — but it’s not completely alone. There are just 12 stocks in the Standard & Poor’s 500, including Nike, game maker Activision Blizzard (ATVI) and AutoZone (AZO) that are at all-time highs or less than 2.5% away, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Capital IQ. These stocks are just a good rally from hitting rarefied air. Interestingly, nine of the stocks including Nike are still rated “buy” or “outperform” by analysts. Finding stocks that are bucking the trend — and actually busting out to the upside — isn’t easy. Stocks in the Standard & Poor’s 500 are down 32% (on average) from their 52-week highs. That’s ugly.

TRAVEL Even smart travelers do stupid things Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

Even the best travelers can have bad days. Scott Long knows. He’s a veteran road warrior and doesn’t think twice before booking a car online. But he ON says he should have TRAVEL EVERY thought twice when MONDAY he rented a set of wheels in Columbus, Ohio, recently and selected “12 a.m.” for his pickup time. “The day of the trip, I realized that midnight was actually 24 hours earlier than I was arriving,” remembers Long, a magazine publisher from Clearwater, Fla. “So my rental car sat at the airport for an entire day.” He had to pay for the extra day, too. Ouch. Autumn is the time when the herds of tourists thin and the “experts” return to the airports, train stations and hotels. They sure look like they know what they’re doing in their blue blazers and designer dresses. But looks can be deceiving. Even the most experienced travelers have “D’oh!” moments like the rest of us. Their mistakes range from simple screw-ups to unhelpful attitudes, but they are

Even the most experienced travelers have “D’oh!” moments like the rest of us. all teachable moments for those of us who travel less frequently. “One of the worst mistakes an experienced traveler could make — and I know, because I’ve made it — involves your passport expiration date,” says Kimberly Ramsawak, the founder of Tourism Exposed, an online travel community. It’s the return date that matters, and for travel to some countries if your passport doesn’t have a three- or even six-month cushion before your return, you won’t be able to board your flight. Jared Blank, the chief marketing officer of DealNews.com, says he’s shown up at the wrong hotel — going to the Westin Boston Waterfront instead of the Westin

Copley Hotel in Boston. He’s also headed to JFK when his flight was leaving from LaGuardia. It’s particularly important to check your confirmation when you’re booking on a mobile app. “You have to triple-check your confirmation,” he says. Helen Maffini describes one of my favorite travel mistakes: carrying the wrong credit card. This can come in several flavors. “Not getting a credit card that gives you favorable (terms) abroad,” notes Maffini, who runs a family travel website in Nepean, Canada, “is a mistake lots of domestic travelers make.” The moment they cross the border, they start receiving notifications from their

bank that there’s a fee on every transaction, and that can add up quickly. Of course, plastic can lead to all sorts of mischief, and frequent travelers are particularly susceptible to it. Take all those credit cards pushed by travel bloggers that let you earn miles or points for every dollar spent. What they won’t tell you is that you’re likely to spend six times more with these high-fee, highinterest rate cards than a typical credit card, and they might gloss over the fact that they’re being generously rewarded for each new sign-up. They may also forget to mention that if you carry a balance on these cards, it basically negates any benefit you’ll get from the card. They win, bank wins, you lose. “If you must participate in one of these cards, be smart about it,” says Randall Reinwasser, a money manager and author of the book Underground Savings. He has a high standard for points-earning cards. To be worthwhile, they must offer a sign-up bonus worth at least $500 — value an airline mile at 1.5 cents and a hotel point at 1 cent — along with a minimum of three months to meet the required spending amount to trigger the bonus. Everything else goes into the trash. Elliott is a consumer advocate and editor at large for National Geographic Traveler. Contact him at chris@elliott.org or visit elliott.org.

THREE THINGS YOU SHOULD NEVER DO

uNot considering the source. Some blogs that revere loyalty programs and extol the value of certain credit cards may be making money if you sign up for them. Pay close attention to who’s offering you travel advice. uNot asking for help. Whether it’s a know-it-all attitude or being intimidated by a new place, failing to ask for directions can be a serious mistake. Anne Marie Herring, a yoga instructor from Austin, is grateful for having overcome that fear of asking for help in unfamiliar territory while she’s traveling. “If you are polite and thankful, more often than not, the local you’ve approached will be happy to help you on your way,” she says. And it sure beats getting lost. uNot counting your money. Channon Dade, an agent for a major airline, didn’t pay attention when she bought $300 worth of rupiah for an upcoming trip to Bali. Turns out, neither did the bank employee, who issued her rupees — the currency of India. Oops. She had to re-exchange the money when she returned, incurring more fees. “Don’t assume the person at the money exchange counter knows the correct type of money needed,” she says.

Ride-hailing services make inroads at airports D.C. area, L.A. are latest to give nod to firms like Uber, Lyft

Harriet Baskas

Special for USA TODAY

It’s been a bumpy ride, but many major airports are successfully hammering out deals with ride-hailing services such as Uber, Lyft and Sidecar. And that means more and, often, less expensive ground transportation options for many travelers. Earlier this month, the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority announced that, beginning Nov. 1, Uber and Lyft would be added to the list of authorized ground transportation options at Washington Dulles International and Ronald Reagan Washington Airports. The move came after “months of study, public input and review in order to determine how best to provide our passengers with access to these new ground transportation options they desire, while ensuring the airport operates effectively and equitably for everyone,” said Airports Authority Executive Vice President Margaret McKeough in a statement announcing the deal. At the end of August, the Los Angeles City County approved a permit process that will allow Transportation Network Companies (TNCs), as the ride-hailing services are also called, to pick up passengers at Los Angeles International Airport. Lyft, which already has operating agreements with 16 airports,

is currently going through the permitting process at LAX, said airport spokeswoman Nancy Castles, but while representatives from Wingz, Opoli and Uber say they intend to apply, as of last week, no other TNC had submitted an application for a permit. “In the meantime, TNCs may continue to drop off passengers at LAX, but they cannot pick up customers,” Castles said. In July, San Diego International Airport signed permits allowing Uber and Lyft to join ride-hailing service Opoli in offering pickup and drop-off service at the airport and, at the beginning of September, UberX began operating legally at Sacramento International Airport. “With more options, travelers, drivers, cities and airports all win,” Uber spokeswoman Natalia Montalvo says. Airports in Seattle and other cities are working on and/or close to announcing agreements with ride-hailing services as well, and if Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s new budget plan moves forward, ride-hailing services will soon be officially allowed to pick up and drop off passengers at O’Hare and Midway Airports. “It wasn’t a question of when services such as Uber and Lyft were coming to airports or how to keep them out,” said Kevin Burke, president and CEO of ACI-NA, the organization which represents most commercial air-

ports in North America, “The big challenge for airport directors was how to regulate the services,” given the various governing models in place at the nation’s airports, he said. To help move things along, ACI-NA put together a task force that examines the services and offers suggestions to airports on how to negotiate a deal. “Airports want to provide options for passengers that are coming in and leaving, and if Uber and Lyft are viable options, then we should be providing them,” Burke said.In 2013, airports in the U.S. and Canada earned $3.1 billion from parking and ground transportation fees, so airports need to make sure the agreements they work out with ride-hailing services protect that revenue as well. “As we move along we’ll see more and more airports solving these challenges,” Burke said, “but each airport has a different story, and there will likely be some snags.” One of those snags is in Florida, where last week Broward County Commissioners spent more than six hours debating regulations that would have allowed Uber to operate at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. Negotiations between Uber and the county have “been difficult,” said Kent George, director of the Broward County Aviation Department.

Q: How have advances in cockpit electronics changed a pilot’s job in the past 30 years? — Submitted by reader John Nuss, East Lake, Fla. A: The integration of automation has drastically changed the flight deck. In the 1970s and ’80s, autopilots were primitive and required the constant attention of the pilots. They did reduce pilot workload, but the navigation was done manually using ground radio stations where possible, or internal inertial navigation for the long flights. Today, the navigation system is integrated with the autopilot. The airplane flies a precise path through the sky, and pilots know their ETA and fuel remaining throughout the flight. Communication has improved with satellite communication and

improved VHF radios. Weather radar is now color and shows areas of wind shear instead of just precipitation being a green return. Pilots are now said to be systems operators; to some degree this is true, but the flying of the airplane remains a critical skill. The job has changed with requirements to work with computers to a much greater degree. Q: How much “hands-on” flying do pilots do during takeoffs and landings? — Vince, Orange, Calif. A: Most landings and all takeoffs are done manually. In highly automated aircraft, the automation (autopilot) is engaged soon after takeoff (a few minutes) and disengaged within 5 miles of the destination. More and more operators are encouraging pilots to fly more manually. Cox is a retired airline captain with US Airways and runs his own aviation safety consulting company, Safety Operating Systems.

STYLE STAR In ‘The Intern,’ Anne Hathaway plays the CEO of a fashion company. It seems her character would approve of the actress’ outfit at the European premiere of the film in London Sunday: The 32-yearold stunned in a semisheer black dress, sleek ponytail and emerald earrings.

NEW YORK South African comedian Trevor Noah is the latest (and last, for a while) new player in TV’s game of late-night musical chairs. At 31, he’s also youngest, and promises to adapt Comedy Central’s The Daily Show for a new generation while trying to preserve its outsize cultural relevance. Noah becomes the show’s third host Monday (11 p.m. ET/PT), seven weeks after Jon Stewart packed it up after a 16year run. Kevin Hart is his first guest, followed later in the week by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and singer Ryan Adams, a sign of the show’s con-

tinued interest in a blend of politics and entertainment. Longtime fans needn’t fret, Noah says in an interview. While he plans some format tweaks, the biggest change will come in “the way we look at stories, or even how I present the stories to the audience.” That prism will reflect the hosts’ vastly different backgrounds: Noah grew up as a poor, mixed-race kid during apartheid, when his parents’ marriage was illegal, and he had no real connection to American politics. Stewart, 52, was raised Jewish in an uppermiddle-class New Jersey suburb. And while Stewart was vocal about subjects including the Middle East (“Mess O’Potamia,” as he called it), “I will have to find my running passion: What becomes the thing that really connects

with me on the show,” Noah says. Unlike Stewart, who was easily riled up by hyperactive cablenews outlets, Noah will start out focusing more on people making news than those delivering it. “I’m less likely to skewer CNN or Fox and more to skewer (Kentucky court clerk) Kim Davis and Mike Huckabee,” he says. Other changes: The stand-up comedian may experiment with, um, standing. He’ll also make more frequent use of the show’s diverse team of fake-news corre-

spondents, bolstered by three newcomers. “We have this ensemble of different voices that, in my mind, represents America in different ways, which is a new thing to play with,” and as peers — he served briefly as one of them — “it’s not my job to say everything, which is really cool.” Still, he’s taking a measured approach. “I wouldn’t want to rush in and dismantle and destroy the show just because people are going, ‘You’d better make it different!’ “Let’s start with what works and let’s evolve over time. Jon Stewart made an amazing show, he created something fantastic. I’m not going to be an idiot who goes and smashes it down; I’m going to use that as a foundation to build on.”

Turns out that Robin Williams had much more to say as the fasttalking Genie in Aladdin, and the evil Jafar had a full song in his twisted heart. Walt Disney animation archivists will reveal extended outtakes of Williams’ recording sessions as the Genie when 1992’s Aladdin arrives Oct. 13 on Bluray. They also will share a buried demo tape of My Finest Hour, a song intended for Jonathan Freeman’s villainous Jafar, in the hit movie’s digital re-release Tuesday on DisneyMoviesAnywhere.com. “The hour has come for My Finest Hour,” says Ron Clements, who directed Aladdin with John Musker. “There’s a rebirth of Aladdin right now,” adds Musker, pointing to the new Broadway production of the Disney film that again stars Freeman as Jafar. “The idea of unveiling a song that wasn’t in this play and (is) not in the origi-

Jafar belts My Finest Hour in this Aladdin storyboard. nal movie is really cool.” My Finest Hour, featuring composer Alan Menken on piano (he won an Oscar for the movie’s score), received initial storyboard treatment. But it never made it into the original film, depriving Jafar of his own baddie song. “It’s great they found and resurrected My Finest Hour. I was certainly happy to hear the name again and jog my memory,” says Freeman. “It’s a piece of living history.”

HEAR THE SONG LIFE.USATODAY.COM

USA TODAY offers an exclusive preview of ‘My Finest Hour.’

My Finest Hour’s lyrics were written by Tim Rice, who won an original song Oscar with Menken for Aladdin’s A Whole New World. But My Finest Hour had to be dropped because it stalled the action of Jafar’s power play. “We liked the melody and the content. But the song length was

really the issue at that point in the story,” says Musker. “It slowed things down, and we needed to keep things moving.” Jafar ended up singing an evil reprise of the existing song Prince Ali in the film. There was nothing slowing down the performance of Williams in his universally adored Genie role. The outtakes, being revealed for the first time, are a fitting tribute to the improvisational talents of the comic actor who died Aug. 11, 2014. Williams would perform long takes and ad lib characters for his Genie, such as a surfer dude. “Robin was totally into the process,” says Clements. “Way after we thought we had so much material, he had new ideas and kept wanting to try things. It was just amazing to watch him work.” Aladdin’s Genie and Williams have only grown in stature over the years. “It’s perfect that he played a genie because he’s kind of a genius,” says Musker. “He was unique because of that lightningquick improvisational ability and yet always being able to connect to the story. Animation was a medium that was truly able to celebrate Robin’s talents.”

Morris twins’ ‘circus’ today

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Fresh start

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

The Morris twins — Markieff and Marcus, who both like to talk — figure to be stars of their Media Day festivities today in NBA cities Phoenix and Detroit, respectively. Former KU power forward Markieff, who remains upset the Phoenix Suns traded his brother, ex-KU small forward Marcus, to the Pistons this offseason, has threatened to turn Suns Media Day into a “circus.” According to arizonasports.com, Markieff is the only player of the Suns’ 13 guaranteed contracts who chose to not participate in any of the Suns’ informal pre-training camp workouts, including pick-up games. He has been working out at Grand Canyon University with GCU coach Dan Majerle, a former Suns assistant coach. “I personally like Markieff. I think he’s a good kid. I think he’s very talented,” Majerle told arizonasports. com. “Now, is he right? No, but that’s a growing process and he’ll figure it out. So, that’s up to the Suns and him. But, I personally like Markieff. He’s been really nice to me, he’s been a good kid, so I hope for his sake and for the Suns’ sake he works it out.” Meanwhile, Marcus told NBA.com he never should have come off the bench in Phoenix. “In Phoenix, I thought I should have started at the three. The guy that is there now (P.J. Tucker) might have been a better defender, but as an all-around three, I thought I was the best we had. And I thought a lot of players thought that, too,” Marcus told nba.com. “But there’s a lot of opportunity here. I have a chance to come in and start right away. I’ve been in the league for five years. It’s nothing new to me. I have

KANSAS UNIVERSITY COACH DAVID BEATY HAS A SIT-DOWN in an attempt to rally the offense just before the fourth quarter of the Jayhawks’ 27-14 loss to Rutgers on Saturday in Piscataway, New Jersey.

Jayhawks have high hopes for Big 12 By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The record shows a rough start in which the Kansas University football team has been outscored 123-75 through three games and just completed its first winless nonconference run since 1988. But the Jayhawks are not discouraged. In fact, home losses against South Dakota State and Memphis and Saturday’s 27-14 road loss at Rutgers did nothing to diminish the Jayhawks’ belief that, (A) they’re ready for the start of Big 12 Conference play, and (B) they believe they can win games against the toughest teams on their schedule.

The reasoning, though full of holes in the eyes of their critics, has nothing to do with recent results and everything to do with the building-block approach KU coach David Beaty has brought to his first year on the job. “We travel up to Ames (Iowa) next weekend, and we’ve got a great opportunity to start Big 12 1-0,” always-sunny senior cocaptain Ben G o o d m a n Goodman said after the Rutgers loss. “We just gotta continue to prepare well and just trust our coaches and execute.”

Goodman’s confidence, which was on full display just moments after his team dropped consecutive loss away from Lawrence No. 34, spoke volumes about the character of this team. “I just believe in the players,” Goodman said. “I see how much they care in the locker room, and the demeanor after a loss is (one that shows) they truly care. If we continue working and continue to work hard, then we’ll turn this program around and start Big 12 1-0.” It has been six seasons since the Jayhawks (0-3) kicked off conference play with a victory. And the feat has happened just six times since the inception of the Big 12. Still, there is a belief in-

side the Kansas locker room that it can happen again. “We’re getting better,” junior linebacker Marcquis Roberts said. “And we’ve gotten better every week. We just gotta put a complete game together, all four quarters, hard work and dedication. Compete for four quarters with all you got.” Added Beaty, asked to grade his team’s first three games of 2015: “I thought we got a little bit better each week. There’s some things that are Achilles’ heels that we’ve gotta continue to go to work on. We continue to allow our opponents to extend drives through undisciplined things like penalties and Please see FOOTBALL, page 5C

KANSAS CITY’S CHRIS YOUNG DELIVERS in the Royals’ 3-0 victory over the Indians on Sunday in Kansas City, Missouri.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — A day after his father died, Chris Young took the mound and paid tribute the best way he knew how. Young pitched five nohit innings in his first start after nearly two months in the bullpen, and the Kansas City Royals beat the Cleveland Indians 3-0 Sunday. “Today I had the opportunity to honor him, playing the game we both loved alongside of my baseball family,” Young said in a statement that a club spokesman read to the me-

dia. “I felt him next to me with every pitch.” Young caught a flight to Dallas before the game ended. “Last night he got a call that they had taken his dad to the hospital, and he wasn’t doing good,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “About 11:30 to 12 (p.m.), he passed away. “Chris was adamant he wanted to pitch today. To go out with that on his heart and throw five innings of no-hit baseball was unbelievable,” Yost said. Young (11-6) made his first start since July 28.

After Danny Duffy struck out two in a perfect sixth for the AL Central champion Royals, Ryan Madson took over to work the seventh. On Madson’s first pitch, Francisco Lindor broke up Kansas City’s no-hit bid with a bunt single. “We’re not trying to break up a no-hitter. We’re trying to win a game,” Indians manager Terry Francona said. “If they have issues with it — I saw (shortstop Alcides) Escobar saying a few things — they can take it up with me. I thought it was a very good bunt.”

Yost had no quarrels with Lindor bunting. “I was a little bit surprised,” Yost said. “But, no, they’re fighting for a wild card.” Yost said he would’ve been more annoyed if it hadn’t been a combo effort on the no-hit try. “I just want to win the game, and they want to win the game, and they’re trying find ways to keep themselves in that wild-card hunt,” Yost said. Lindor put down a bunt Please see ROYALS, page 5C

Chiefs eager to put loss to Broncos behind Green Bay, Wis. (ap) — The Kansas City Chiefs have heard enough about their last-minute collapse to Denver. With a trip to Lambeau Field to play the Green Bay Packers tonight, the Chiefs will end an agoniz-

ing 11-day stretch since that disheartening defeat to the Broncos. “They understand the challenge that’s ahead of them,” coach Andy Reid said. “Move on and learn from your mistakes and we roll.”

But boy did the Chiefs commit some late blunders in the 31-24 loss at home to Denver back on Sept. 17. Five turnovers, none bigger than a fumble by the typically sure-handed Jamaal Charles that was scooped up and returned by

cornerback Bradley Roby 21 yards for the go-ahead touchdown with 27 seconds left. No third-down conversions on seven chances. A late fourth quarter touchdown drive allowed by the defense. All caught on national

television in prime time. How deflating. But the Chiefs (1-1) promise that they’re not looking back. It just so happens that they get a chance to redeem themselves in another nationally-televised night game.

Loudon, N.H. (ap) — Matt Kenseth had the fresher tires and the fuller tank as he stalked Kevin Harvick with postseason advancement at stake. Harvick never slowed down to conserve fuel, his team firm in the belief he could stretch his way to victory lane. The gamble backfired. Harvick was out of gas, and now, almost out of chances to defend his Sprint Cup title. Kenseth pressured Harvick down the stretch and took the lead for good when the defending series champion ran out of fuel Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in the second race of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship. “I ran as hard as I could to get as close as I could to him because I wanted to beat him,” Kenseth said. “The faster he has to go, obviously, he burns more gas.” Harvick burned it all. Every last drop gone for the StewartHaas Racing driver before the finish line. Kenseth, who won for the fifth time, earned a berth in the second round of NASCAR’s playoffs and gave Joe Gibbs Racing its fourth straight victory. Harvick had the dominant car and led the most laps until fuel woes hit and knocked him out with three laps left. He tumbled to 21st a week after he was finished 42nd in the Chase opener and will surely have to win next week at Dover International Speedway to advance to the second round. Harvick declined comment. “Fast car. Great day. Bad ending,” he tweeted. “Things haven’t gone exactly to plan but I promise you one thing ‘we will not quit’ #itaintover.” JGR is 2-for-2 in the Chase and continued to prove its Toyotas will be the ones to beat over the final eight races. Denny Hamlin, the winner last week at Chicagoland, was second for JGR. Chase drivers took eight of the top 10 spots. The 16-driver Chase field will be cut to 12 after Dover. “I was giving Kevin everything I had,” Kenseth said. “I thought he had us beat. He had the better car.” Kyle Busch, Paul Menard, Harvick and Clint Bowyer are the final four drivers on the brink of elimination. They would advance with a victory, but Jimmie Johnson stands in their way at Dover, where he has a track-record 10 victories. Harvick was knocked out of the race last week when he connected with Johnson and blew a tire. He later got into an altercation with Johnson in the motorhome lot and shoved the Hendrick Motorsports driver. Harvick led 216 of 300 laps and heads to Dover — where he is 0-for-29 — with one of the biggest must-win races of his career. Crew chief Rodney Childers had a lengthy post on Twitter that said the data showed Harvick had enough fuel in the No. 4 Chevrolet to last all 300 laps. “It should have been a nonissue. Which is why we weren’t worried,” Childers wrote. “It looks like for some reason it must not have got full on our last pit stop of the race or the fuel cell bladder is coming apart.”

Spieth becomes golf’s first $22 million man Atlanta — Jordan Spieth treated the Tour Championship as if it were a major. He played like it was, too. Looking for a fitting finish to a sensational season, Spieth poured in putts from all over East Lake and never gave Henrik Stenson or anyone else much of a chance Sunday. His final stroke was an 8-foot par putt that was right in the heart for a 1-under 69, and he leaned back with a smile of pure satisfaction. The 22-year-old Texan became golf’s first $22 million man — a PGA Tour record with just over $12 million in prize money, and the $10 million bonus for the FedEx Cup. “This is incredible,” Spieth said. “This is an event where we approach it like a major championship because we know this is possible at the end of it.” Even when he missed back-to-back cuts to start the FedEx Cup playoffs, Spieth spent the month trying to peak for the most important event in the lucrative series. He was the first to show up at East Lake on Monday to start grinding on his game. And with a one-shot lead going into the final round Sunday, he was on the putting green three hours before his tee time for what caddie Michael Greller called the “early grind.” Spieth made three birdies in a four-hole stretch around the turn, and they were demoralizing for Stenson. Spieth made a 20-foot birdie on No. 8 for a two-shot swing that he never gave back. He made an 18-foot birdie on the par-5 ninth with Stenson already at tap-in range for birdie. And with Stenson just over 3 feet away for birdie on No. 11, Spieth curled in a 45-foot birdie putt. “Eleven was a dagger,” Spieth said. Spieth closed with seven pars for a four-shot victory over Stenson, Danny Lee (65) and Justin Rose (66). His fifth victory of the year, which includes the Masters and the U.S. Open, was worth $1,485,000 million and gave Spieth $12,030,465 for the year.

The previous record was $10.9 million by Vijay Singh in 2004.

Toledo edges Tom Watson Pebble Beach, Calif. — Esteban Toledo held off 66-year-old Tom Watson by a stroke Sunday at Pebble Beach in the Champions Tour’s First Tee Open. The 52-year-old Mexican player shot a 3-under 69, rebounding from a bogey on the par-3 17th with a par on the par-5 18th for a 9-under 206 total. He also won twice on the 50-andover tour in 2013. “I got a little bit nervous,” Toledo said about of his bogey on the 17th when his tee shot went wide right. “I had no idea where I was in the tournament at the time and I just hit a bad shot.” Watson was trying to break Mike Fetchick’s record as the oldest winner in tour history. Fetchick won the 1985 Hilton Head Seniors Invitational on his 63rd birthday.

Sounders, Sporting draw Kansas City, Kan. — Dominic Dwyer scored in the 79th minute to give Sporting Kansas City a 1-1 draw with the Seattle Sounders on Sunday, further tightening the top of the MLS Western Conference standings. The Sounders opened the scoring in the 31st minute when Obafemi Martins shouldered off defender Kevin Ellis to finish a long ball from Gonzalo Pineda for his 14th goal. Sporting KC’s goal came five minutes after Dwyer entered the game. Jacob Peterson fed Amadou Dia on a nice overlap on the left side of the box for a low cross that a sliding Dwyer on the right side redirected past keeper Stefan Frie. It was his 11th goal.

NFL ROUNDUP

Freeman fuels Falcons past Cowboys The Associated Press

Falcons 39, Cowboys 28 Arlington, Texas — Matt Ryan and Julio Jones connected for two touchdowns, Devonta Freeman ran for 141 yards and three scores, and Atlanta beat Dallas on Sunday in the Cowboys’ first game without Tony Romo and Dez Bryant. Freeman’s third score early in the fourth quarter capped a rally from a trio of 14-point deficits for the Falcons (3-0), who didn’t win their third game until Week 10 last year, and Week 13 in 2013. Jones had his third straight 100-yard game to start the season, finishing with 164 and a clinching two-yard score in the fourth quarter.

Steelers 12, Rams 6 St. Louis — Ben Roethlisberger was carted off the field because a knee injury in the second half, and Pittsburgh’s defense came through. Le’Veon Bell scored from a yard out in the first half in his first game back after a suspension, but the Steelers’ focus will be on the status of their star quarterback. Roethlisberger’s leg got caught underneath him on a diving, sliding sack by Mark Barron. There was no immediate word on the extent of Roethlisberger’s injury.
