Farmer pleads guilty to stealing from food pantry

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

Farmer

Former Lawrence Mayor Jeremy Farmer pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court in Topeka to one count of interstate transportation of stolen funds stemming from his time as leader

of the Lawrence food bank Just Food.

Farmer, 33, had originally pleaded not guilty on Sept. 8 to the felony but changed his plea to guilty on Wednesday.

Neither he nor his attorney, John Cowles, would comment Wednesday on

the case.

Farmer admitted to the court that the theft of thousands of dollars took place while he was executive director of the nonprofit Just Food, whose mission is to feed the hungry in Douglas County.

He was hired at Just Food

in 2011 and resigned from that position — and from his seat on the Lawrence City Commission — in August 2015. His resignation came about after it was revealed he had not paid more than $50,000 in federal and state payroll taxes on behalf of Just Food.

At the time Farmer said the taxes were unpaid due to an oversight.

Farmer also admitted on Wednesday to changing Just Food’s financial documents to conceal his embezzlement.

Decomposing trash that was buried decades ago in the Hamm Landfill north of Lawrence will soon become a source of fuel.

Plans to construct a $16 million methane gas plant and pipeline are underway at the Hamm Landfill, which is about 5 miles north of Lawrence and which serves about 500,000 Kansas residents. Hamm representatives say in addition to producing a renewable fuel source, the plant will reduce the greenhouse gas CITY COMMISSION that’s emitted when organic trash in the landfill breaks down.

“For a town like Lawrence that’s very environmentally conscious, we’re able to take the potential greenhouse gas footprint that’s associated with all paper products and anything that is organic and eliminate it,” said Charlie Sedlock, division manager at Hamm.

As part of the operation, extraction wells will capture the methane gas generated as the trash breaks down. The gas will be processed at the plant before being transported for distribution and eventual sale.

Hamm has partnered with Renewable Power Producers, of North Carolina, to develop the landfill well field, gas processing plant, pipeline and interstate pipe-

Methane is the secondmost prominent greenhouse gas, and landfills are responsible for about 20 percent of its emissions, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. Though emissions of carbon dioxide are several times higher that those of methane, because methane is more efficient at trapping radiation its impact on climate change is more than 25 times greater than carbon dioxide over a 100-year period, according to the EPA. A six-mile pipeline will need to be built to connect the plant to existing pipeline networks, and Sedlock said the land easement for the pipeline will be 15 feet across.

Those dimensions make for about 475,000 square feet of land total. Sedlock said the pipeline would run through city, state and private land and that almost all of the necessary easement agreements had been made.

He hopes construction of the pipeline will begin in six to eight weeks.

DEATHS MELISSA MONTGOMERY ARNETT Melissa Montgomery Arnett aged 66, of Lawrence, Kansas, was surrounded by her family when she succumbed to cancer on Tuesday September 27, 2016, at her home.

Melissa was born July 2, 1950, in Albany, Georgia, the first of Dorothy and Walter “Wolf” Montgomery’s four children. She grew up in Leavenworth, Kansas, and Lawrence, and married Carl Arnett in 1967. She stayed home with their two sons, teaching herself to cook and bake by watching Julia Child on TV. She spent the early 1980s learning commercial baking at a downtown Lawrence restaurant and in 1984 opened Goodies Gourmet in a Lawrence shopping center with Carl and the boys and ran it until 1986. The deli featured home made bread, sandwiches, pasta salads, and elegant desserts.

In the early 1990s, Melissa brought her bread and cookies to the Lawrence Farmer’s Market, where she had a popular stall for several years.

The matriarch of the family, Melissa loved the visual arts, gardening, and music. She encouraged these interests in her children and grandchildren, whom she doted on. Her interests

varied widely and she loved Lawrence, but her heart belonged to the mountains of Colorado.

Holiday dinners were events filled with laughter and stories. She made birthdays special by baking your favorite dessert.

Melissa is survived by her husband, Carl, her son Jason Arnett and wife Bobbi Lara, Lawrence; her son Nathaniel Arnett, Topeka; her sister Nancy Lawrence; Montgomery, brother Scott Montgomery and wife Jana, Lawrence; brother Matthew Montgomery and wife Tina, Eudora; brother­in­law Robert Arnett and wife Kimberlee, Lawrence; Sherrie Born, Eudora; grandchildren Randy, Callahan, Wilson, Paige, Eli, and Natalee; and many cousins, nephews and nieces, as well as an extended family scattered across the United States.

Report: Kansas government has Hamm 2 days’ worth of cash reserves

CONTINUED FROM 1A

The Associated Press

Topeka (AP) — A recent study says the Kansas government could run on its cash reserves for only two days.

The Wichita Eagle reports that Pew Charitable Trusts analyzed cash reserves for all states at the end of the most recent fiscal years and estimated how long state government could continue to function if it relied on those reserves.

Kansas ended the 2016 fiscal year in June with a $35 million balance, equivalent to about two days. The study says the average state has about

29.2 days of reserve funds.

Gov. Sam Brownback’s spokeswoman Eileen Hawley said the study reflects a steep drop off in the oil and agriculture economies. Hawley said other states with similar economies have also experienced declines in their state reserve funds, however each of the states she named has reserves that would last beyond the 29-day national average with the exception of Oklahoma at 13.3 days.

Kansas has struggled to balance its budget since GOP lawmakers cut personal income taxes in

2012 and 2013 at Brownback’s urging, hoping to stimulate the economy.

Hawley said the Pew report “does not reflect how the administration has saved KPERS (the state’s pension system) from bankruptcy, invested in roads resulting in top national rankings, and invested more in K-12 education than ever before, all while returning money to pockets of hardworking Kansans.”

“It’s frightening,” Rep. Kathy Wolfe Moore, DKansas City, said. “It’s absolutely frightening that we only have two days of reserves if some kind of catastrophe hit.”

Farmer CONTINUED FROM 1A

Though the felony charge Farmer pleaded guilty to says that he stole more than $5,000, estimates from Just Food have placed that number closer to $55,000.

U.S. District Judge Carlos Murguia accepted Farmer’s plea and ordered the completion of a presentence investigation.

Depending on Farmer’s criminal history, which will be a part of the presentence investigation, he could face up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

Murguia allowed Farmer to continue to be free on a bond of $5,000.

Sentencing will be set at a later date.

The release says there is no suspect information and that Buford’s death remains under investigation.

“

If I didn’t have Just Food, I wouldn’t eat the last two weeks of the month. He took food out of people’s mouths. People who need it. People who would starve without it.”

— Just Food client Jennifer Coffman

News of Farmer’s guilty plea offered no joy to Just Food’s board of directors, said board president Will Katz.

“It’s not like a day of celebration for Just Food or anything like that,” he said. “We’ve been through a lot in the last 14 months and the board of directors, staff and volunteers have tried to stay pretty rooted in the present and the future.”

As for restitution from Farmer, Katz said Just Food isn’t counting on it. That’s “something we pretty much left in the

L awrence J ournal -W orld

hands of the court system,” he said. “It’s not anything we have control over.”

Every day, Just Food serves between 150 to 200 families, said Executive Director Elizabeth Keever. Last year the nonprofit saw a 10 percent clientele increase and this year’s increase is closer to 15 percent, she said.

“Just Food is going strong one year later,” she said.

The nonprofit’s ability to move forward in the past year, however, might not have been possible

recent meeting approved a licensing agreement for the easement of the project. The license allows Renewable Power Producers to install, maintain and operate the pipeline and facilities to transport landfill gas within the city rightof-way and across the Mudcreek Levee. The licensing agreement between the city and RPP will generate $58,000 for the city over the next 30 years.

All of Lawrence’s solid waste is taken to Hamm Landfill, and the project provides a communitywide benefit, said Chuck Soules, the city’s public works director.

“We’re probably one of the largest single users at the landfill,” Soules said. “…Instead of just letting that gas vent into the environment, it’s going to be captured and reused.”

Once the plant is operating, the methane gas collected will be sold to various companies without the community’s support, Keever said.

On Oct. 6 Just Food will host its Founder’s Dinner at Abe & Jake’s Landing, 8 E. Sixth St., Keever said. There the pantry will celebrate its seventh anniversary, thank the community and offer information about future plans.

“Without the community’s support there might not have been a seventh anniversary,” she said.

Just Food client Jennifer Coffman, 55, had stronger words about Farmer Wednesday after hearing about his guilty plea.

“If I didn’t have Just Food, I wouldn’t eat the last two weeks of the month,” she said. “He took food out of people’s mouths. People who need it. People who would starve without it.”

through a distributor, according to information provided to the City Commission. The facility will employ four full-time and four parttime employees. Sedlock said the cost to build and run the plant would not increase the collection costs that Hamm charges to municipalities, and that instead the revenue from the sale of the gas would go to offset those costs.

“We don’t want this to become a big capital expenditure that gets passed on through rates,” Sedlock said. “We would like for this to be a project that pays for itself.”

As far as work on the plant itself, Sedlock said 10 gas wells have already been installed and that 70 additional wells will be added over the next six to eight weeks. Construction of the processing plant has already begun off-site, and Sedlock said the target is to have the plant up and running in six to eight months.

Commission directs staff to seek proposals for energy audit

DISAPPOINTING OUTPUT

ty Courthouse, Law Enforcement Center, United Way Building and Douglas County Extension office — have achieved the 30 percent energy-saving goal, which was the program’s ambitious benchmark when it was started Many of those completed improvements were identified in a 2008 energy audit of county buildings. Because most of those projects have been addressed, Horn suggested it was time the county consider contracting another energy audit to identify future projects.

Horn did not know what an audit would cost, but said it should be considerably cheaper than the $76,000 energy audit the city of Lawrence contracted for its 70 buildings. Commissioners gave Horn the green light to seek requests for proposals to get a sense of the cost of an audit.

The potential for savings would be in the Douglas County Jail and Youth Services, where it is more difficult to cut energy use because they are occupied 24 hours a day, Horn said.

A LOCAL FARM TRANSFERS CORN FROM A COMBINE to a semi Wednesday in a field in the Kansas River bottoms east of Lawrence. The local fall harvest is underway with about 25 percent of the corn harvested, according to local elevator managers. The crop is good but not what farmers hope in a year of depressed grain prices.

Corn harvest not what area farmers hoped for

By Elvyn Jones ejones@ljworld.com

After a good start last week, the weekend’s rain put a temporary hold on what has been a somewhat disappointing early fall harvest in the Douglas County area.

Clark Wenger, president and general manager of the Ottawa Co-op, estimated Tuesday that 25 percent of this year’s corn crop had been harvested before last weekend’s rains prevented combines from getting into the fields. Area farmers should be able to get combines rolling again this week, he said. Ottawa Co-op owns the two elevators in Lawrence, as well those in Ottawa and 11 other locations.

Yields have been from 100 to 150 bushels per acre with a 125-to-130 yield being a “pretty good average,” Wenger said. That’s not a bad harvest, but the

“

They are getting probably 50 bushels (per acre) less than what they thought they would be getting.”

— Clark Wenger, president of the Ottawa Co-op

depressed grain prices had farmers hoping for a bumper crop from the corn that looked good in area fields.

“It’s really disappointing because they were hoping for better yields to try and bridge some of that gap,” he said. “They are getting probably 50 bushels (per acre) less than what they thought they would be getting.”

Three above-average harvests since the 2012 drought year have filled grain bins and depressed prices, Wenger said. Many elevators to the west of Douglas and Franklin counties are anywhere from 50 to 80 percent full as the harvest started,

forcing their managers to store grain on the ground, he said.

“The pipe is completely filled,” he said. “We are fortunate being so close to the market we can move the grain.”

Closing cash bids Tuesday for corn in Ottawa and Lawrence were $3.16 per bushel.

Steve Wilson, owner of Baldwin Feed Company, said 20 to 25 percent of this year’s corn crop in southern Douglas County near Baldwin City was harvested last week before the rains. Yields were good, he said, with about 130 bushels an acre being the estimated average yield from local fields.

| 3A

Again, that was a good average but not what farmers were expecting, Wilson said. Contributing to that is a greater incidence of diplodia ear rot, a fungal pathogen that damages corn, usually in association with wet weather, he said.

“We see it every year, but there’s a bit more of it this year,” he said.

It will be another two or three weeks before farmers start cutting soybeans, the other important crop in the local fall harvest, Wenger said. Optimistic farmers are hoping beans deliver the bumper crop that was expected of corn.

“It looks really good, but you never really know,” Wenger said. “I’ve heard really good yield estimates, but everybody thought corn would be better than a year ago. That’s why I’m hesitant to say beans will be up. They are forecasting a wet October. That’s not good for the harvest situation.”

On Wednesday, Douglas County commissioners directed staff to seek requests for proposals for an energy audit so the county can maintain the success of its sustainability program.

Commissioners gave Eileen Horn, coordinator of the Douglas County Sustainability Office, that direction after she shared an annual report on the Sustainability and Energy Savings Reinvestment Fund at Wednesday’s meeting. The revolving loan program was started with $300,000 in seed money in 2011. Money saved from the projects is plowed back into the loan fund to be used for additional improvement.

Horn reported the county has completed 21 projects through the program since it started and reduced energy consumption in the county’s seven buildings by 20 percent.

She calculated the upgrades saved the county $163,000 in 2015 alone.

New law may drive county wireless boom

By Elvyn Jones ejones@ljworld.com

Expect to see numerous wireless towers going up in Douglas County rights of way after a new state law becomes effective Oct. 1.

Douglas County Public Works Director Keith Browning said the law that the Kansas Legislature passed last spring requires local governments to treat wireless companies as other utilities COUNTY in respect COMMISSION to right-ofway use and put no obstacle in their way that would put them in a competitive disadvantage to other utilities.

That prompted new county regulations on the placement of wireless towers and support infrastructure in county rights of way. The Douglas County Commission approved the new regulations to county code last week. The new regulations make the approval of wireless towers in rights of way a matter of staff review and eliminate the need for

companies to secure a conditional use permit for such a use, Browning said.

The new state law does allow the county to adopt regulations to provide for reasonable public health and safety and welfare concerns, Browning said. With that the county regulations require towers be built out of a road’s “clear zone,” or the “unobstructed, traversable” area on which a motorist can stop safely or recover control after leaving the roadway.

The county regulations also limit the size of wireless towers in rights of way to 65 feet in height and 3 feet in width, Browning said.

The county can’t deny a permit because a pole is too close to a home or any other aesthetic reason, he said.

“Regulations have to be competitively neutral,” he said. “We looked at the biggest power pole that could be used in the right of way.”

That doesn’t mean homeowners were doomed to have unwanted 65-foot towers built on their doorsteps, Browning said.

Benefit Packages

“We will work with companies,” he said.

“They typically don’t want to make people mad.”

Browning said he expected to see applications when the law becomes effective. The county had two inquiries from companies to build towers at the start of the year, he said. They didn’t progress when the companies were told they would have to go through the county’s conditional use permit process, he said.

The county can’t require utilities to pay franchise fees, and the regulations are not meant to be a revenue source for the county, Browning said. Rather they’re viewed as a way to ensure public safety while allowing providers to increase wireless connectivity in the rural parts of the county, he said.

“It’s an effort to provide around the county, so I expect them to be built pretty uniformly in the county,” he said. “I think it is part of a national push to provide wireless connectivity in rural areas. I think this law is a part of that.”

More notice The school district should have been more forthcoming about its new policy on condoms.

F

or a moment, forget whether providing free access to condoms to students in Lawrence’s two public high schools is a good idea.

Yes, that is a hard topic to forget, especially if you are a parent of a high school student. That is why it would been have nice if school district officials would have done much more to notify school district residents that such a policy was being considered.

A policy has been approved to provide free condoms to students who seek them, and the Lawrence school board all but forgot to let the public know about it beforehand.

School board members — without even taking a formal vote — allowed the policy to move forward at their Monday board meeting. The agenda for that Monday evening meeting was posted online on Thursday morning. As is standard practice, the Journal-World assigned a reporter to review that agenda for any news items. The item about having free condoms available for students in the office of each high school was not on that Thursday morning agenda.

A school district spokeswoman has since confirmed that not all the background material for that item was ready when the agenda was first posted to the school district’s website. The information became ready later in the day, and the item was added to the agenda around noon on Thursday.

However, the school district did nothing to notify the media or the public that the agenda had been updated with that item. This is different from how the city of Lawrence, for example, manages its agenda. When an item is added, removed or significantly modified on the city’s agenda, notification is sent to the media and anybody else who has requested it.

School district officials at approximately 6 p.m. on Friday did send an email to parents notifying them that a condom policy would be considered by the school board. However, there was a significant omission from that letter: It never stated when the school board would consider the item. Parents who wanted to comment before the decision was made likely didn’t know they would have to make those comments so quickly.

This issue of introducing family planning into Lawrence high schools clearly could have benefited from some better district planning. District officials owe the community an explanation about the timing and notification involved with this issue. Did district officials think this wasn’t a topic that would produce some disagreement in the community? Did school board members sense any red flag at all when no one from the public came to the meeting to speak against it?

Informal conversations with district officials suggest that a system in the future will be created to notify people of changes to the district’s agenda. That would be a good step toward better government.

Unfortunately, one new system won’t fix all the issues the district has in communicating with the public.

The Lawrence school board does much less to communicate its business to the public than the Lawrence City Commission or the Douglas County Commission. For example, the school board receives many important reports during the course of a year. A formal presentation — usually a PowerPoint — is provided to the board. At Lawrence City Hall, for example, any written report or PowerPoint presentation is posted as part of the agenda for the public to see. It allows media organizations to write more complete stories alerting the public about what is on an upcoming agenda. It allows interested members of the public to read the documents beforehand and come to the meeting better informed. It is good government at work.

The Lawrence school board does not follow that model. Such reports are rarely provided to the public beforehand.

Generally, they only become available at the start of the meeting or after the meeting. This easily can be changed.

School board members simply need to direct staff members to have their reports completed in time to be attached to the board’s agenda.

As this idea has been brought up informally, there already have been concerns raised about the impact this will have on the time of staff members. It will require an adjustment, but should not require extra work on the part of staff members. Staff members will have to start their work earlier in order to finish it earlier.

Granted, that’s not a trivial adjustment.

But as so many governments already have determined, it is an adjustment worth making to provide greater transparency to the public’s business.

‘Just listen to what you heard’ In some ways, it was the most memorable line of Monday’s presidential debate.

It came after Donald Trump had stumbled through a nonresponsive response to a simple question: Why did it take him so long to concede President Obama was born in the USA? In reply, Trump congratulated himself for getting Obama to produce his long-form birth certificate, falsely blamed Hillary Clinton for start-

For them, America was ‘great’ when they were the only ones who had a say in it.”

ing the racist campaign and touted his great relationship with black people.

And Clinton, smiling, said, “Just listen to what you heard.”

They ought to put that on a billboard; it could encompass Trump’s whole campaign. It certainly encompasses his debate performance. Granted, Trump spent the first minutes doing his best impression of a statesman, but that was all he could manage. Then, like your favorite band on a reunion tour, he pulled out the old hits.

He blustered, filibustered and interrupted, insisted (dishonestly) that he opposed the Iraq War from the beginning, suggested (deceptively) that he never said Clinton doesn’t have “a presidential look,” declared

(mendaciously) that he never called climate change a Chinese “hoax.”

At one point, he answered a question about cybersecurity by noting that his 10-year-old son “is so good with these computers, it’s unbelievable.”

Which is lovely for little Barron Trump, but tells us nothing about how his dad would secure the American computer grid against statesponsored hackers.

Perhaps most incredibly, at the end of a testy rant, the notoriously thin-skinned entertainer said, “I … have a much better temperament than she has.” Reality itself lurched sideways on that one.

“Just listen to what you heard,” she said, i.e., take it at face value. If we were all doing that, this election wouldn’t be close. But we aren’t, so it is.

It’s important to understand that, at its core, Trump’s appeal is neither about issues nor policy positions. Nor is it primarily, as

some would argue, grounded in economic dislocation.

Yes, the Rust Belt is hurting. But it’s been hurting for years; the era when a high school education got you a lifetime job on the loading dock or factory floor has been gone for a long time.

By contrast, the era of political incoherence that has produced Trump is a relatively new phenomenon. So perhaps the dislocation we’re talking about is less economic than demographic, i.e., the rancor of those who resent pressing one for English, transgender bathrooms, two men atop a wedding cake and a brownskinned president with a funny name singing Al Green at a campaign rally.

Some of us feel steamrolled by change.

They say they want to “make America great again.”

For them, America was “great” when they were the only ones who had a say in it.

Abraham Lincoln famously said that no foreign power

could, by force, “take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years. …

If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher.” This was 23 years before the Civil War. Almost 200 years later, we face another civil war, only it’s a civil war of ideas and ideals, a secession from objective reality and the greater us.

But Lincoln is still right — if destruction is our fate, it will come from within. And with the arguable exception of the 2008 recession, Donald Trump represents this country’s gravest existential threat since the end of the Soviet Union.

“Just listen to what you heard,” advises Hillary Clinton.

And it’s a marker of what we’ve become that for some of us, that will be entirely too much to ask.

— Leonard Pitts Jr., winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for commentary, is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

Trump’s rise reflects America’s decay Washington — Looking on the bright side, perhaps this election can teach conservatives to look on the dark side.

They need a talent for pessimism, recognizing the signs that whatever remains of American exceptionalism does not immunize this nation from decay, to which all regimes are susceptible.

The world’s oldest political party is an exhausted volcano, the intellectual staleness of its recycled candidate unchallenged because a generation of younger Democratic leaders barely exists. The Republican Party’s candidate evidently disdains his credulous supporters who continue to swallow his mendacities. About 90 percent of presidential votes will be cast for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump, refuting the theory that this is a center-right country. At the risk of taking Trump’s words more seriously than he does, on some matters he is to Clinton’s left regarding big government powered by an unbridled presidency.

His trade policy is liberalism’s “industrial policy” repackaged for faux conservatives comfortable with presidents dictating what Americans can import and purchase at what prices, and where U.S. corporations can operate. Trump “wouldn’t approve” Ford manufacturing cars in Mexico. He would create a federal police force to deport 450,000 illegal immigrants a month, including 6.4 percent of America’s workforce in two years. Yet the 25 million jobs he promises to create would require more than doubling the current rate of legal immigration to fill them, according to economist Mark Zandi. Of the Supreme Court’s 2005 Kelo decision diluting property rights by vastly expanding government’s powers of eminent domain, Trump says, “I happen to agree with it 100 percent.” Even Bernie Sanders rejects Kelo.

When Trump says “people are not making it on Social Security,” he implies that people should be able to “make it” on Social Security for a third or more of their lives, and that he, like Clinton, is for enriching this entitlement’s benefits. He will “save” the system by eliminating — wait for it —

“waste, fraud and abuse.” Trump is as parsimonious with specifics regarding health care (“Plans you don’t even know about will be devised because we’re going to come up with plans — health care plans — that will be so good”) as regarding foreign policy (“I would get China, and I would say, ‘Get in [North Korea], and straighten it out’”).

“Charismatic authority,” wrote Max Weber in 1915, seven years before Mussolini’s march on Rome, causes the governed to submit “because of their belief in the extraordinary quality of the specific person. ... Charismatic rule thus rests upon the belief in magical powers, revelations and hero worship.” A demagogue’s success requires a receptive demos, and Trump’s ascendancy reflects progressivism’s success in changing America’s social norms and national character by destigmatizing dependency.

Under his presidency, he says, government will have all the answers: “I am your voice. ... I alone can fix it.”

The pronoun has unlimited antecedents: “I will give you everything. I will give you what you’ve been looking for for 50 years. I’m the only one.”

Urban without a trace of urbanity, Trump has surrounded himself with star-struck acolytes (Mike Pence marvels at Trump’s anatomical — “broadshouldered” — foreign policy) and hysterics (Rudy Giuliani: “There is no next election! This is it!”). When Ferdinand VII regained Spain’s throne in 1813 he vowed to end “the disastrous mania of thinking.” Trump is America’s Ferdinand.

The American project was to construct a constitutional regime whose institutional architecture would guarantee

the limited government implied by the Founders’ philosophy: Government is instituted to “secure” (the Declaration of Independence) pre-existing natural rights. Today, however, neither the executive nor legislative branches takes this seriously, the judiciary has forsworn enforcing it, and neither political party represents it because no substantial constituency supports it.

The ease with which Trump has erased Republican conservatism matches the speed with which Republican leaders have normalized him. For the formerly conservative party, the Founders’ principles, although platitudes in the party’s catechism, have become, as Daniel Patrick Moynihan said, “a kind of civic religion, avowed but not constraining.”

The beginning of conservative wisdom is recognition that there is an end to everything: Nothing lasts. If Trump wins, the GOP ends as a vehicle for conservatism. And a political idea without a political party is an orphan in an indifferent world.

Pessimism need not breed fatalism or passivity. It can define an agenda of regeneration, but only by being cleareyed about the extent of degeneration, which a charlatan’s successful selling of his fabulousness exemplifies. Conservatism’s recovery from his piratical capture of the conservative party will require facing unflattering facts about a country that currently is indifferent to its founding.

Obama suffers first veto defeat 9/11 survivors, families support measure that would allow them to sue sponsors of terrorism Donovan Slack and Brian J. Tumulty USA TODAY

The House and Senate voted Wednesday to reject President Obama’s veto of legislation that would allow lawsuits against foreign sponsors of terrorism. It was the first successful override of a presidential veto since Obama took office.

The president vetoed the legislation Friday because he said the bill — the Justice Against SponWASHINGTON

sors of Terrorism Act — would infringe on the president’s ability to conduct foreign policy. It was the 12th veto of his presidency.

After an intense, lengthy push by 9/11 survivors and families of victims who want to sue Saudi Arabia based on claims the country played a role in the terror attack in 2001, even Obama’s Democratic allies on Capitol Hill voted to override his veto.

The House voted 348-77, well above the two-thirds majority needed. The final vote tally in the Senate was 97-1. Minority Leader

SHAWN THEW, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said the veto override was almost “miraculous.”

Harry Reid, D-Nev., cast the sole vote against override.

“In our polarized politics of today, this is pretty much close to a miraculous occurrence,” said Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas. Democrats and Republicans agreed, he said, that the bill “gives the victims of the terrorist attack on our own soil an opportunity to seek the justice they deserve.”

The top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said he shared Obama’s concerns but victims’ rights outweighed them. “We cannot in good conscience close the courthouse door to those families who have suffered unimaginable losses,” Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., said.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest decried the override as the “single most embarrassing thing the United States Senate has done possibly since 1983.”

“Ultimately, these senators are going to have to answer their own conscience and their constituents as they account for their actions today,” he said, adding that Reid showed “courage” in opposing it.

Terry Strada, national chairwoman for 9/11 Families & Survivors United for Justice Against Terrorism, called the override votes a “tremendous test of our democracy.”

“I mean, do we have a democracy, or does Saudi Arabia own us?” she said.

o see one of the country’s largest coal-fired power plants, head northwest from this Ohio River city. Or east, because there’s another in the region. In fact, nearly every direction you go will take you to a coal plant — seven within 30 miles.

Collectively, they pump out millions of pounds of toxic air pollution. They emit greenhouse gases on par with Hong Kong or Sweden.

Industrial air pollution — bad for people’s health, bad for the planet — is strikingly concentrated in America among a small number of facilities such as those in southwest Indiana, according to a nine-month Center for Public Integrity investigation in partnership with the USA TODAY Network and the Weather Channel.

The center, which merged two federal data sets to create an un-

precedented picture of air emissions, found that a third of the toxic-air releases in 2014 from power plants, factories and other facilities came from 100 complexes out of more than 20,000 reporting to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

A third of the greenhouse gas emissions reported by facilities came from just 100, too. Some academics have a name for them: super polluters.

Twenty-two industrial sites appeared on both lists. They include ExxonMobil’s refinery and petrochemical complex in Baytown, Texas, and a slew of coal-fired

power plants. Four are in a single region — southwest Indiana.

Thomas McGarity, a law professor and regulatory scholar at the University of Texas-Austin, said the findings show “a lot of the problem is isolated, and what we need to do is focus in on these plants.”

The EPA says it’s doing that. In a written statement, the agency said its sustained emphasis on the utility sector has led to “dramatically” lower emissions from power plants since 1990 — “while the U.S. economy has continued

Disconnection notice: BlackBerry won’t make its own phones Manufacture of device will be outsourced Brett Molina and Jon Swartz USA TODAY

It’s the end of an era for BlackBerry.

The Canadian company, which helped usher in the smartphone race nearly 20 years ago, on Wednesday confirmed it will no longer manufacture the iconic handheld device. Instead, it will outsource hardware development to partners. BlackBerry CEO John Chen says the company will

prioritize software development, including apps and security.

“We are reaching an inflection point with our strategy,” Chen said in a statement. “Our financial foundation is strong, and our pivot to software is taking hold.”

BlackBerry made the revelation during its second-quarter earnings report, in which its revenue of $352 million missed Wall Street forecasts compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence. NonGAAP earnings per share were even for the quarter, beating analyst estimates of a loss of 5 cents a share.

Second-quarter sales of the device dipped to 400,000. In its lat-

est quarter, Apple sold 40.4 million iPhones.

Shares of BlackBerry closed at $8.31, which is up 5%.

The long, gradual decline of BlackBerry paralleled the rise of iPhone and Android phones. Once dominant with more than 50% of the global market, the signature device — a cellphone with a QWERTY keyboard and sophisticated software — was so addictive to millions of customers, including President Obama and Kim Kardashian West, it often was nicknamed “CrackBerry.”

The long, gradual decline of the QWERTY BlackBerry paralleled the success of iPhone and Android phones.

touchscreen phones changed that and eventually BlackBerry fell out of favor — its global share plunged to less than 1%. Even government employees, for years a loyal customer base, turned away. Senate staff members made the switch from BlackBerry, according to a memo from the Senate sergeant at arms this summer.

“BlackBerry failed to anticipate elemental changes in the market,” says Charles King, principal analyst of Pund-IT. The company’s descent took so long, he says, “there is an element of putting the poor thing out of its misery.”

‘Shooting stance’ prompted Teen accused in dad’s death, police to kill San Diego man Suspect not armed; communities school shooting black brace for protests Teacher, 2 children injured in attack

Charles Ventura USA TODAY

Anderson Independent Mail TOWNVILLE , S . C. A teenager is accused of fatally shooting his father before heading to a nearby elementary school and wounding two children and a teacher Wednesday afternoon.

Jeffrey Osborne, 47, was found dead in his home. The alleged shooter was home-schooled, and authorities didn’t know of any relation between the Townville Elementary School victims and the shooter.

Deputy Police Chief Keith Smith said the shooter never entered the elementary school but was on its playground when the children and teacher were attacked. One of the students was shot in the leg and the other in the foot, Capt. Garland Major with the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office said. Both students were male. The female teacher was hit in the shoulder. One of the children and the teacher were released from the hospital. Taylor Jones, Anderson County’s emergency services director, said both children were taken away from the school in medical helicopters.

Townville Elementary students, evacuated from their school, leave a bus that took them to a nearby church.

One suspect was in custody, according to Lt. Sheila Cole of the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office.

Jones said the person in custody was believed to be a teen.

A SWAT team went through the school and did not find any other signs of danger, Jones said.

“We are heartbroken about this senseless act of violence,” said Joanne Avery, superintendent of Anderson County School District 4. She canceled classes for the rest of the week.

SPECIAL FOR USA TODAY

Townville Elementary School has nearly 300 students from pre-kindergarten through sixth grade.

Protests continued Wednesday in the San Diego suburb of El Cajon, Calif., after police shot and killed an unarmed black man Tuesday afternoon who they said was behaving erratically.

Tensions in the Southern California community erupted after the shooting of a man identified by various news organizations as Alfred Olango, 30. A woman identifying herself as Olango’s sister is quoted on a YouTube video as saying her brother suffered mental challenges and she telephoned authorities three times to help her in subduing him. The woman, who is not identified by name, has told reporters that her brother was walking in traffic.

“They shouldn’t have called police — they should have called crisis communications,” the woman is heard saying on the video as she sits on a curb, her head in her hands. The ambulance carrying the man has already driven away, without her.

Protesters chanting, “Black lives matter” and “Hands up, don’t shoot” marched Wednesday afternoon near the scene, the El Cajon Police Department said via Twitter, asking members of the public to avoid that area.

The San Diego district attorney’s office is investigating the shooting, as it does with all officer-involved shootings, agency public affairs officer Tanya Sierra told USA TODAY in an email.

Officers were called around 2 p.m. Tuesday to the Broadway Village Shopping Center in El Cajon after hearing reports of an uncooperative person walking into traffic, police said in a statement. They said the man did not have a weapon.

Police Chief Jeff Davis said at a news conference, “At one point, the male rapidly drew an object from his front pants pocket,

Pastor Russell Bowman, center, prays out loud as people gather at the scene where a man was shot by police in El Cajon, Calif. placed both hands together on it and extended it rapidly towards the officer, taking what appeared to be a shooting stance, putting the object in the officer’s face.

“At this time, one of the officers discharged his Taser in an effort to subdue the subject. Simultaneously, the officer who had the object pointed at him discharged his firearm, striking the male.”

He did not say what the object was but acknowledged it was not a weapon.

Davis said investigators were reviewing video from the scene, which coincided with the officers’ statements.

Officers provided first aid and took the man to Sharp Memorial Hospital in San Diego after the shooting, various media reported, where he was pronounced dead.

Davis urged residents to remain calm.

to grow” — and it works to get further improvements.

Not all the states are on board.

Indiana is one of 27 suing the EPA over its Clean Power Plan, which would require reductions in climate-altering greenhouse gas pollution from electric utilities. Indiana Gov. Mike Pence — Donald Trump’s running mate — is a pro-coal, climate-change skeptic who says the costs of shifting to cleaner energy sources are too high.

“Unfortunately, President Obama’s Clean Power Plan will drive up electricity prices, threaten electricity reliability and put coal miners out of work,” Pence spokeswoman Kara Brooks said by email.

The EPA contends its plan would modestly reduce U.S. electricity bills long term and says it is working with the power sector to ensure reliability.

Maintaining the status quo has real costs: bad air that threatens health and fuels global warming.

Across the country, the top 100 facilities releasing greenhouse gases — almost all of them coal plants — collectively added more than a billion metric tons to the atmosphere in 2014. That’s the equivalent of a year’s worth of such emissions from 219 million passenger vehicles — nearly twice as many as the total number registered nationwide.

The top 100 facilities for toxicair emissions vented more than 270 million pounds of chemicals in 2014. The vast majority of those chemicals carry health risks, according to the EPA; they can target the lungs or other organs, and some can affect children’s development. Eight of the super polluters have closed since 2014. The rest, including all four in Indiana, still operate.

Tina Dearing, 48, from Huntingburg, Ind., was widowed in March when her 57-year-old hus-

will be looked at by multiple sets of eyes, and not just ours,” he said of the investigation.

One man who said he was a witness and who is seen on video posted on Twitter by a San Diego Union-Tribune reporter said the shooting victim had his hands up when police shot him. Police said via Twitter that their preliminary investigation indicates his hands were not up at the time of the incident.

This is the third police-involved shooting of a black man that has grabbed national attention in two weeks. Earlier shootings of Terrence Crutcher in Tulsa and Keith Lamont Scott in Charlotte spurred emotional protests and more questions about relations between U.S. law enforcement and black communities.

Tina Dearing, 48, gets a hug from her 8-year-old daughter, Maleah. Dearing lost her husband, Vincent, when the 57-year-old died of a heart attack. She suspects air quality was a factor.

Two months later, researchers published the results of a 10-year study showing that pollution appears to accelerate harmful deposits in the arteries that cause nearly all heart attacks and most strokes.

Dearing’s family lives within 30 miles of two of Indiana’s larg-

est coal plants. She knows a variety of factors can play a role in an early death, but she said she believes dirty air contributed in her husband’s case. “The air quality stinks,” she said.

African-American and poor people make up an outsize share of those living near the 100 polluters releasing the most airborne

chemicals, as reported to the EPA’s Toxics Release Inventory.

These facilities can degrade air far afield. Almost all the states with top toxic-air emitters send a significant amount of pollution to downwind states, some hundreds of miles away, according to EPA analyses.

Owners of some super polluters say their emissions break no rules and are simply a reflection of a facility’s size.

Others say they’ve ratcheted down releases in recent years.

NRG Energy, which owns or co-owns several coal plants on the top 100 lists, said its toxic air emissions are falling, and it has set aggressive climate goals that would mean a major overhaul in the way it makes power.

“Things can’t continue on the same path as they have for decades,” Bruno Sarda, NRG Energy’s new chief sustainability officer, said of businesses worldwide.

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

Donald Trump says bad things will happen when the Federal Reserve-fueled bubble pops.

“We are in a big, fat, ugly bubble,” the Republican presidential nominee declared at Monday night’s first debate.

And if you take a proprietary poll by a Wall Street research firm at face value, Trump’s chances to defeat Democratic rival Hillary Clinton and become president might increase if economic data and the stock market flash signs of weakness prior to Election Day.

Fiat Chrysler adds 700 jobs to Michigan pickup plant Jeep SUVs, trucks at core of restructuring

Matthew Dolan, Brent Snavely and Chris Woodyard Detroit Free Press and USA TODAY

At a time when Donald Trump is making loss of jobs in the Midwest a top campaign issue, Fiat Chrysler says it’s on track to add at least 700 new jobs at a Detroitarea factory.

The company says it will need the workers at its Sterling Heights plant to produce pickups.

The plant currently has been making the Chrysler 200 sedan, which is being discontinued.

The company says a $4.6 million grant, along with a $11.4 million tax break, are critical to remaking the plant for the nextgeneration 2018 Ram 1500 and keeping the jobs in Michigan.

“The impact from these new, well-paying jobs, not to mention thousands of jobs preserved ... equates to millions of dollars in the local and regional economy,” Sterling Heights Mayor Michael Taylor said in a statement.

In fact, Ford and the United Auto Workers union say, they are going to create enough jobs in the U.S. to offset the move to make small cars in Mexico.

Ford is concentrating truck production in the U.S., like Fiat Chrysler. The plant recently eliminated one shift as a result of declining demand for the Chrysler 200 line. “The Applicant plans

‘WESTWORLD’ BRINGS LIFE TO SOME REAL BIG IDEAS

Artificial intelligence takes a human face at futuristic park Bill Keveney

Anthony Hopkins is Dr. Robert Ford, the man behind the theme park. Top, Ed Harris portrays the mysterious Man in Black.

@billkev USA TODAY

Robots are human, too. At least they’re starting to behave that way in Westworld, a thesis on identity and artificial intelligence that doubles as a sexy, violent spectacular.

HBO’s latest big-idea, big-budget drama (Sunday, 9 ET/PT), based on the 1973 sci-fi film about a futuristic Wild West theme park, has long been a favorite of executive producer J.J. Abrams (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Star Trek), who first talked to writer Michael Crichton (Jurassic Park), about a potential featurefilm remake two decades ago.

“There are so many different films, series and books about A.I., the dawning of consciousness, the threat of technology, but for some reason Westworld never let up its grip for me,” he says.

The twist? The series, which stars Anthony Hopkins, Ed Harris, Evan Rachel Wood, Jeffrey Wright, James Marsden and Thandie Newton, includes the perspective of the lifelike robotic “hosts,” who help the park’s human “guests” live out their fantasies and suffer harsh abuse in the process.

“In the original movie and a lot of films about A.I., you come from

James Marsden is “mysterious new arrival” Teddy Flood in Westworld, and Evan Rachel Wood is Dolores. the human perspective, and A.I. is the other. We wanted to take that apart and start by examining the lives of the hosts and developing an empathy for them and giving them some personhood,” says cocreator Lisa Joy. Complications arise from a glitch in the park’s technology and the possibility that the hosts will defy their scripted behavior and retain memories.

Playing God weighs heavily on the park’s founder, Dr. Robert Ford (Hopkins).

“He (makes) something he thinks is good and beneficial, but begins to question his own creation,” says Hopkins, who likens his character to “a darker and maybe more complex” Walt Disney.

And Harris’ mysterious Man in Black, a loyal Westworld guest, poses a potential threat as the player inside the game.

“He recognizes his dark, violent side and figures Westworld is a safe place to exorcise that,” Harris says. “But things have changed over the years. The hosts have become a lot more human-like and sophisticated. He thinks there’s something going on, and he tries to dig a little deeper.”

Wood says Dolores, a host who portrays a rancher’s daughter, is her favorite role.

The hosts “are advanced, intellectual, strong beings who have no idea of their power,” she says.

“The show starts with (park operators) trying to keep them from

evolving, but ... they will find a way. It’s not really if, it’s when.”

Abrams acknowledges sex and violence are “a titillating aspect” to the series, but he and co-creator Nolan say that plays into larger themes about humanity.

“We’re aware of expectations for a show like this and we’re interested in subverting them,” Nolan says. “The show is interested in asking: ‘Why is violence something that humans are drawn to? Why is it part of our entertainment?’ ” Guest mistreatment of humanlooking hosts, especially women, has raised early concerns about sexual violence, but Wood defends the series.

“The things we’re showing that might seem gratuitous, there’s a reason and we’re very careful about how we’re tackling it,” Wood says. “I would not be involved with anything I thought was dehumanizing women. If anything, I think we’re showing how horrible it is. What would happen if you were a host and endured 30 years of abuse and one day woke up and remembered it?”

Remakes of popular film franchises sparked the most conversation in the fall TV season’s official premiere week, though online chatter tells an entirely different story, according to exclusive results of an annual survey by Keller Fay Group, a New Jersey research firm.

CBS’ MacGyver and Fox’s Lethal Weapon and The Exorcist generated the most talk among 20 new shows on the major broadcast networks, 12 of which premiered

by Sept. 25, the online survey showed. The poll measures what viewers are talking about with friends in face-to-face, phone and email conversations, which represents the majority of interactions.

But on social-media networks, public blogs and forums, NBC’s This Is Us, ABC’s Designated Survivor and Fox’s Pitch sparked the most discussion. Neither Pitch nor ABC’s Notorious, another top-5 series based on online discussion, appeared among the 10 top conver-

sation starters offline.

Overall, 48% of respondents to the survey Sept. 19-25, said they talked about one or more new shows last week, up from 45% for last year’s premiere week but down from 53% in 2014, About 51% of women did so, compared with 46% of men.

But not all talk is equal: When respondents were asked their opinion about the new shows they’d seen and discussed, the reboots ranked behind top picks Designated Survivor, This Is Us and Pitch, in that order, offline.

And This Is Us, NBC comedy The Good Place and ABC’s Speechless drew the most praise online.

Well-known titles often attract initial interest and then fade, so

the survey findings can help predict their ultimate appeal. Last year, another reboot — ABC’s The Muppets — was among the mosttalked-about shows early in the season. But most of the chatter panned it, and after an attempt to retool it, the series was canceled.

“Franchises always tend to draw interest,” says Maggie Fosdick, Keller Fay’s VP of research, but “it’s a double-edged sword” if the shows don’t deliver on expectations. So far, however, “we don’t see anything as starkly negative as we saw with The Muppets.”

The only new show that’s generating negative buzz both offline and online is Fox’s Son of Zorn, a hybrid live-action/animated series starring Jason Sudeikis as a car-

Dear Annie: I come from a very close Midwestern family. I have one sister, two brothers and great parents.

Every other year, we would take a family trip to the lake. As we’ve gotten older, the tradition has stayed and grown to include new family members. We all meet up, bringing our spouses and kids.

The problem herein lies with my elder sister and her husband.

When I first met my brother-in-law, he was so nice and friendly to our family. He is an Aussie, and we were charmed by him. He raved about how much he loved the great outdoors and looked forward to keeping up our family tradition. After they got married, everything changed. The first year, my sister and her new husband said

Dear Annie

they couldn’t make the trip because of his work (even with two years’ notice). The second time around, it was yet again because he had to work.

They just seem to make every excuse in the book not to go. I can hear the real disappointment in her voice as she says they won’t be making it yet again.

Since the wedding, we pretty much have never seen him and rarely have seen her.

My brother-in-law

Stereotypes endure in afterlife show Eleanor finds it difficult to remain under the radar on the third episode of “The Good Place” (8:30 p.m., NBC). This tale of a less-than-stellar mortal (Kristen Bell) given a slot in an afterlife for special good-deeddoers has received generally positive reviews, and a healthy audience has sampled the series on air, DVR and streaming.

I still haven’t laughed once.

As I’ve written before, “The Good Place” is more like a laborious riff on “Groundhog Day” than an original comedy. It also uses the rather shopworn narrative tradition that director Spike Lee once dubbed the “Magical Negro.”

Lee was referring to Hollywood’s use of black characters as mystical figures whose sole purpose in the story was to help humanize and enlighten white characters. They had no lives or stories of their own and merely appeared as fairy godmothers and selfless “change agents.”

In “The Good Place,” the character Chidi (William Jackson Harper) is a Nigerian man who was an ethics professor during his short, good life. But due to a quirk in the celestial clockwork, he is compelled to spend his heavenly “reward” as the mentor to a white woman (Bell) whose selfish life is frequently revealed in flashbacks.

Even in “heaven,” Chidi has no (after)life of his own. He is defined entirely by his service to another.

There are surprises yet to come in “The Good Place.” So whether they are continuing the “Magical Negro” concept or satirizing it remains to be seen. Is this funny or, at best, too clever by half?

TCM honors Gene Wilder with a rebroadcast of the 2008 interview “Role Model: Gene Wilder” (7 p.m.), a freewheeling discussion between Alec Baldwin and the late actor about Wilder’s many movies. The 1974 horror spoof “Young Frankenstein” (9:15 p.m., TCM), directed by Mel Brooks, follows.

never comes to any family functions and makes no effort to have a relationship with my parents.

I’ve talked to my brothers about this, and they think that because our brother-in-law’s parents live in Australia and he rarely gets to see them, he is jealous that our sister lives so close to her family.

Is there anything that I can do to make him come around and want to come on our family trips? My elder sister was always the leader in our family, but now our fearless leader has turned into a cowardly black sheep.

Dear Black Sheep’s Sibling: It sounds as if your brother-in-law’s true colors came out after the wedding, and they’re sickening shades of green. He is consumed by envy. If he can’t have

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, Sept. 29: This year you often find yourself revealing much more than you need to. If you are single, you will enjoy the dating process and getting to know someone better. If you are attached, you and your sweetie might discuss nearly every issue quite a few times.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Your mind has been working overtime, perhaps even in your sleep. Share your stream of consciousness with a friend or loved one. Tonight: Relax at home.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You continue to create adventures, great conversations and interesting ideas.

Tonight: Think “weekend.”

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You’ll want to look at several different issues or just have a conversation. Tonight: Clear your desk.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You seek answers, and you are likely to get them.

Make an adjustment if need be.

Tonight: Visit with a friend Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Some discussion could be necessary before you make a final decision on a money matter. Tonight: Buy a treat.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll demonstrate your willingness to get past a

family, then she can’t have family. This certainly does not seem like a loving marriage.

Her husband sounds less than perfect, but the real question is why your sister would allow this to go on. I would try talking to her oneon-one to see whether she can reach a compromise with her husband.

Maybe propose that they start alternating years — spending vacation at the lake with you one year and in Australia the next. Also make an effort to reach out to your brother-inlaw sometimes just to see how he’s doing so he feels that he’s important to you. If he would embrace your family, it might help him feel less homesick.

problem. Tonight: All smiles.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) If you can take a day off today or in the near future, do.

You could be unusually concerned about a personal matter. Tonight: Get some extra R and R! Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You’ll hear some interesting pieces of information mixed in with some gossip. Tonight: Maintain a sense of humor when dealing with a feisty loved one.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A boss might drive you a bit crazy with last-minute thoughts and details. Tonight: Another late night.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might feel as if you are about to lose it with someone who is too full of him- or herself. Tonight: Relax your mind and body.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Open up to a talk, but refuse to go beyond a certain topic that isn’t really relevant to the discussion. Tonight: Honor your limits.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) At this moment, you might have lots of ideas to share, no matter what the topic is. A close friend or loved one will follow suit and start sharing as well.

Tonight: Defer to someone else.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Blending in

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

It’s time to give Willis all four quarters

The Masked Rider, guns up, dressed in a Lone Ranger mask, black gaucho hat, black shirt and red cape, sits atop a horse that sprints 100 yards on turf and leads the Texas Tech football team onto the field.

That’s when the adrenaline starts pumping in Aman Carter Stadium. It’s the coolest football tradition in the Big 12.

Then Patrick Mahomes II, son of the former majorleague pitcher and quite the pitcher himself, takes it from there.

He keeps up the pace set by the Masked RidWillis er, throws accurate passes, short, medium and long, to platoons of receivers, and is the coolest football player in the Big 12.

At 6-foot-3, 230 pounds, Mahomes is bigger than the Kansas linebackers who will try to bring him down when he takes off and runs, which isn’t often.

Mahomes has thrown 14 touchdown passes and two interceptions. The Red Raiders average 11.3 yards Nick Krug/Journal-World File Photos every time he attempts a KANSAS FRESHMAN JOSH JACKSON, LEFT, AND FORMER JAYHAWK XAVIER HENRY joined the KU basketball program under very similar pass and he has been sacked situations during their time in Lawrence. four times in three games.

MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Royals eliminated despite victory The Associated Press

American League Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The World Series champions have failed to make the postseason for the fourth year in a row.

Kendrys Morales and Alex Gordon keyed an eighth-inning rally and Kansas City beat the Minnesota Twins 5-2 on Wednesday night, but the Royals were still knocked out of playoff contention.

The defending World Series champs were eliminated when Baltimore beat Toronto 3-2 earlier Wednesday.

“Obviously we’d like to be playing a lot more baseball, but the reality of it is we’re not,” said Eric Hosmer, who hit a tworun homer in the third.

Morales’ ground-rule double to right scored Jarrod Dyson, who had doubled and stole third.

Gordon’s single scored Whit Merrifield and pinch-runner Billy Burns.

Dyson said he would not be watching postseason games.

“It’s kind of sad and tough to watch postseason when you’re not in it,” Dyson said.

The Twins, who have lost 10 of 11, have dropped 102 games, tying the 1982 team for its highest total since moving to Minnesota for the 1961 season. The Washington Senators lost a franchise-worst 113 games in 1904.

“We’re trying to win games, but it’s becoming difficult,” Twins righthander Ervin Santana said. “But, I think we just try to do too much and we forgot about the little things. It’s a game.

You just have to prepare to be better for the next year.”

National League Braves 12, Phillies 2 Atlanta — Matt Kemp hit a two-run homer, Daniel Castro had three RBIs, and Dansby Swanson also drove in two runs.

Mike Foltynewicz (9-5) pitched two-hit ball over five innings in his first start since Sept. 12, when he left a game against Miami with a left calf contusion.

The Braves won for the ninth time in their last 10 games, building some momentum for 2017 and their move to SunTrust Park.

Reds 2, Cardinals 1 St. Louis — Adam Duvall’s two-run single was all Cincinnati needed as the Reds beat St. Louis.

The Reds’ third win in their last four games dealt a blow to the Cardinals’ playoff hopes. St. Louis lost ground in the race for the two NL wild cards, falling 2 1/2 games behind the New York Mets and possibly two games behind the San Francisco Giants pending the outcome of their game against the Colorado Rockies.

Beaty keeping positive outlook

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

A quarter of the way through his second season in charge of the dormant University of Kansas football program, head coach David Beaty makes sure to appreciate signs of growth anywhere he can find them.

So even though his Jayhawks open Big 12 play 1-2, coming off back-toback disappointing losses to programs outside the vaunted Power 5 conferences, Beaty will tell you about how well Ohio and Memphis have played since KU faced them, bring up how much the Kansas defense has improved statistically since a year ago at this time and things of that nature.

While maintaining his trademark optimism, though, Beaty also understands how far away he is from taking the team where he thinks it’s capable of going.

As his Jayhawks enter Jones AT&T Stadium tonight in Lubbock, Texas, to take on Texas Tech (21), Beaty thinks one drastic change should continue to help his players in an uphill climb toward national relevance. Since his arrival, he and his staff have implemented a culture change, and Beaty said the players trust in what they’re attempting to build at KU. “And then the next thing was not ever quitting. That was a big, big deal for us here, and for all of us in this world,” the coach said last week at his news conference.

“I think all of us have a point where it’s just not worth it, and you give up. And you’ve got to develop that resolve in you, and we have to develop in our players where those words never enter their mind, so they’re never giving up.”

Kansas coaches, Beaty added, do much to track players’ in-game effort.

During the team’s bye week, he shared with his players examples of how their effort actually improved in the second half of their loss at Memphis, a game in which KU trailed 33-7 at the break before holding the Tigers to 10 second-half points.

Each positive nugget Beaty unearths keeps him going, and his goal remains to explore every avenue that might lead his program out of the Big 12 basement.

“Yeah, you’ve got to innovate or you’re going to evaporate in college football … We are always going to be developing,” Beaty said. “You’re going to hear me say that from now until we win a conference championship, which we will do. I’m not sure when, but we will get to it, and we will always be developing.”

TV spotlight as recruiting tool While Beaty prefers playing on Saturdays, he described earlier this week why he is grateful KU gets a chance for some national exposure at Texas Tech (7:30 p.m. kickoff, FOX Sports 1).

“And from a recruiting standpoint, it gives you a chance to showcase really what you’re doing, offensively, defensively, special teams and as a program,” Beaty said. “So that’s a great recruiting opportunity. It’s great for both sides (KU and Tech). Really, you get out of it what you put into it and what you produce from it. I think the team that produces the most stands to gain the most.”

THREE KEYS FOR KANSAS

Upgrade that run defense

Texas Tech’s offense is going to put up In the nearly two weeks since Kansas lost True, Texas Tech calls passing plays far more some points. That’s just what the Red Raiders 43-7 at Memphis, Beaty often has referenced often than rushing plays (160 throws versus 93 do. The program hasn’t been shut out since the Jayhawks’ unsightly six turnovers in this runs this season), but when quarterback Patrick 1997, and this year Tech ranks second in the year’s road opener as not only the reason Mahomes II isn’t slinging the ball around the country in points per game (61.0), trailing for the blowout, but also an issue that has to field, Kansas needs to step up its rush defense. only Louisville (63.5). So the Kansas offense get fixed.

MEGA MATCHUP Texas Tech Air Raid vs.

Kansas secondary

The numbers indicate KU’s pass defense has become a team strength. Entering the Big 12 opener, Kansas foes have completed just 47.6 percent of their throws for 135 yards a game and a pass efficiency mark of 99.1. By the end of the night against Texas Tech, we’ll know just how relevant those non-conference stats are.

With junior quarterback Mahomes (198.2 pass efficiency) at the controls, Tech is averaging an FBS-best 547.7 passing yards a game — nearly 100 yards more than the category’s runner-up, Cal (459.3). Throws upon throws upon throws are coming the way of KU’s secondary. Defensive backs such as Brandon Stewart, Tevin Shaw, Fish Smithson, Marnez Ogletree and Bazie Bates IV know what they’re up against. They’ll have to prove those statistics from the past three games aren’t a fluke.

Jayhawk pulse

Coming off the only bye week of the season, the Big 12 grind begins for Kansas with a nationally televised difficult road game — aren’t they all for the Jayhawks, losers of 39 straight away from Lawrence. KU’s players and coaches have had more than enough time to analyze and digest a rather disastrous trip to Memphis.

The combination of desiring to bounce back and wanting to prove to the college football nation the program isn’t the laughingstock many consider it to be could be enough for the Jayhawks to keep things interesting early on.

FIVE QUESTIONS WITH … DORANCE ARMSTRONG JR.

1

4

What was the biggest difference for you at Memphis, where you had two sacks and three total tackles for loss, compared to the first two games of the season?

On the defensive line, how competitive are you all? Daniel Wise had two big games, and then you had the big one at Memphis.

“We compete every week. From Week 1, I know we had a bet on whoever gets the first sack and we didn’t get it ’til last weekend.

So we compete every day, even in the offseason in everything. Me and Daniel go at it all the time, like no matter what type of day it is.

We’re gonna go at it. I think that helps a lot with our chemistry and knowing how each other play.”

“I feel like I needed to get just a sack, or more than one, because I went two games without having none. I have goals to get more than six sacks this season, so now I’m gonna start and just keep building off of those two sacks from last week.”

2

After your freshman year, are you putting more pressure on yourself for your sophomore season?

“I’m not too sure on that, but I feel like I’m able to do more and I feel like coaches depend on me more than they did last year. So now I just have to step up to the challenge and accept the role that I have now, and know that it’s bigger than it was last year.”

something eerily similar with freshman Josh Jackson. The names, numbers and faces may be different, but there’s a certain amount of symmetry between the two teams.

Both Henry and Jackson came to Kansas with a tremendous amount of talent, loads of hype and a great deal of potential.

According to those familiar with the process, making the pieces fit was as much about the mental side of things as it was about basketball.

“It is what you make it,” said Reed, a junior on that 2009-10 team, who also watched his squad welcome one-and-done player Josh Selby a year later. “Coach Self always reminds us that we play at Kansas and he’s always gonna go after the best players in the country. I think making that work depends on the current group but also a lot on the type of kid coming in, and X was a great kid who wanted

Defensively, what’s helped you guys do so well? When your backs are up against the wall, it seems like you are forcing field goals or coming up with key stops in the red zone.

a stop. We’re talking every play like, ‘Come on, let’s go. We need this stop. They’re not getting in the end zone.’ So I think the communication between the whole defense, it just sets that tone to know that they’re not getting in the end zone.”

“When we’re out there on the field and things aren’t going our way, we just know we’ve gotta get

the best for the team first and foremost.”

By all accounts, that same thing can be and has been said about Jackson, who spent most of the summer in Lawrence getting familiar with his future teammates.

Self celebrated Jackson’s maturity and “polish” throughout the summer and said those traits have made it easy to blend the 6-foot-8 Detroit forward, whom many are expecting to make a major impact this season, into KU’s already talented and experienced squad.

“I don’t think I need to address it with the older guys,” Self told the Journal-World. “But I do need to address it with Josh and I have. But he can educate me as much as I can educate him. He gets it. He sees the big picture and all he cares about is winning.”

That last part — setting aside stats and stardom for the bottom line — is crucial in the process, according to both Reed and Self. The ability of the freshman phenom to do just that will help ease him into the mix and in-

spire others to welcome him with open arms.

“Those older guys, what they do recognize is talent,” Self said. “They want to win and they know that Josh makes us better and gives us a better chance to win if he plays well. That’s the key though — if he plays well.”

That was not a problem for Henry back in 2009-10, though many have wondered if he would have exploded more had he not been tossed onto such an experienced roster.

In 36 starts during his lone season as a Jayhawk, Henry finished as the team’s second leading scorer (13.4 ppg) and shot .418 from three-point range while adding 4.4 rebounds per game.

Reed said Henry never acted like he was better than anyone and that went a long way toward keeping the disruptions to a minimum.

“I don’t think it really messed with our psyche.

We took it in stride,” Reed said. “The biggest thing is we had Sherron (Collins) and now they’ve got Frank (Mason) and Devonté (Graham). If the

For you, having a goal of surpassing six sacks this season, what led to your slow start the first two weeks?

Did your preseason leg injury play a factor?

“I’m not gonna make the injury no excuse. I came out playing slow. That’s just not how I play.

But as the season keeps going I’ve just got to get myself back into the groove and know what I’ve gotta do to reach my goal.”

— Benton Smith

upperclassmen and the core of the team are setting the example from Day 1 of what Kansas basketball is, those young guys have no choice but to follow them, otherwise they’re not gonna fit in.

And that’s the most important thing for a freshman, blend in and do everything you can to help the team.”

Reed said he and his teammates were aware of the hype surrounding Henry but never paid it much attention. For one, talent ran deep on the KU roster. For two, less talented or not, the veteran players on the roster had the head-start of knowing what it took to play for Self and succeed at the college level.

“We see the press clippings and we hear it all and we know it,” Reed said. “But Xavier never gave off a vibe that he was just here for a year and out. For me, I just wanted to compete. I didn’t care who it was.

It could’ve been LeBron James coming in and as long as I got a chance to compete against him, I was gonna be fine with whatever happened.”

That’s the set-up Self is expecting this year, when the 2016-17 season officially kicks off with Late Night in the Phog on Saturday.

“Whatever fanfare comes with those types of guys, they can quickly win the respect of their teammates by outworking them and Josh has already done that,” Self said. “Josh will make those other guys better because he’ll compete with ’em. And I know for sure that nobody’s going to back down from him. I know Lagerald (Vick) and Svi (Mykhailiuk) won’t.

They’re gonna push him and I think that’ll be good for him and good for us.

“The thing that Josh understands is that high school doesn’t mean anything now,” Self added.

“And a lot of high school guys don’t understand that. I’m expecting him to fit in nicely but also impose his will. That’s harder to do as a freshman, but this team needs that alpha dog. And I think it’s a good blend because we’ve got veterans who know how to handle it and we’ve got a young guy who gets it.”
