Voter lawsuit could go class action Amendment filed in battle over Kobach suspensions
By Karen Dillon Twitter: @karensdillon
Lawrence attorneys who filed a federal lawsuit Sept. 30 attempting to overturn a state law restricting voter registration added an amendment Tuesday to make the lawsuit a class action. Earlier this year, Secretary of State Kris Kobach
suspended the pending registrations of more than 36,000 would-be Kansas voters until they provide proof of citizenship. The Sept. 30 lawsuit that asked for a preliminary injunction was filed by former Lawrence Rep. Paul Davis, an attorney, and William

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback blasted the Obama administration late Tuesday for failing to provide assurances that it can prevent terrorists from entering the U.S. posing as Syrian refugees. His statement was issued shortly after a 90-minute conference call between the White House and 34 governors, many of whom, including Brownback, have announced they will not accept Syrian refugees into their states. “The White House was desperate to restore confidence in the screening process for Syrian refugees. They failed,” Brownback said in a statement Tuesday night. “In the end, despite acknowledging information gaps from these failed states, Brownback the White House said it would continue to run Inside: Baha the program as it has in Safadi, spokesman the past, disregarding for The Islamic the concerns of goverCenter of nors across the nation.” Lawrence, The White House, condemns Paris meanwhile, described attacks but hopes the conference call Brownback as productive, saywill reconsider ing several governors refugee order. 2A expressed appreciation for the chance to better understand the screening process and have their issues addressed. “Others encouraged further communication to ensure that governors are able to better respond to questions from the public about the refugee screening and resettlement process,” the White House said in a statement to news outlets. President Barack Obama did not take part in the conference call. It was led by White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough and included ranking officials from the departments of State, Defense, Homeland Security and Health and Human Services.

Islamic Center spokesman condemns Paris attacks Hopes Brownback will reconsider Syrian refugee order By Karen Dillon Twitter: @karensdillon
The recent terrorist attacks in France are weighing heavily this week on Baha Safadi, spokesman for The Islamic Center of Lawrence. “These acts of savagery are criminal and perpetrated by a few people who we don’t consider in any way Islamists,” Safadi said Wednesday of the Islamic State attacks that left at least 129 people dead in Safadi Paris. “Those people have proven time and time again, they are not worthy of being mentioned as Islamist. Islam is about peace and harmony and helping your neighbor.” Safadi said he was disappointed when he learned Gov. Sam Brownback had issued an executive order late Monday prohibiting any state agencies and organizations from receiving public

organization receiving grant money from the state may “aid, cooperate with, or assist in any way the relocation of refugees from Syria to the state of Kansas.” At least 30 other governors, almost all of them Republican, have taken similar measures to block Syrian refugees from entering their states. Those actions came just days after the Nov. 13 terrorist attacks in Paris that left at least 129 people dead and more than 300 wounded. It also came shortly after some Republican legislative leaders complained the influx of refugees into Kansas was putting an unfunded burden on public schools. Sen. Ty Masterson, RAndover, who chairs the Senate Ways and Means Committee, made that comment as the Legislative Coordinating Council pared back a request by the Wichita school district for additional funding to help it deal with a sudden increase in enrollment by refugee children. The ongoing civil war in Syria has produced a mass exodus from the country and an international humanitarian crisis, with hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing on foot or by boat, most of them bound for Europe. The Washington Post reported Wednesday the alleged mastermind behind the attacks, Ahmad al-Mohammad, emigrated to Europe with a fake Syrian passport in a boat full of refugees that landed last month in Greece.
provides states with funding to help resettle refugees, political asylum seekers, victims of human trafficking and other eligible immigrants to ease their integration into American society. In Kansas, the program is administered by the Department for Children and Families. DCF distributes that money in the form of grants to a number of private, nonprofit social service agencies that sponsor refugees who want to resettle in Kansas. Those agencies are primarily located in the Kansas City and Wichita areas, and in Garden City. Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas, which received $320,000 in grant funding last year, is the agency that works with refugees in the Kansas City, Lawrence and Topeka areas. DCF spokeswoman Theresa Freed said that in the federal fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, Kansas received $600,000 in federal funds for its refugee program. The state resettled about 600 refugees from various countries, including eight people from two families of Syrians. Freed said DCF has directed the agencies that receive refugee grant funding not to use any of those funds for resettling Syrian refugees.
States, there are no border checks.” Levy also said that because the Kansas Refugee Program is federally funded, it is not clear whether Brownback can legally take actions that are inconsistent with federal laws and regulations that govern the program, at least not without risking the loss of all future funding for that program. In addition, he said, Brownback’s order raises questions about his authority to control the actions of the private, nonprofit agencies that work with the program. “I don’t think the state can prohibit private nonprofits from fulfilling their obligations under federal law,” Levy said. The American Civil Liberties Union also has questioned the legality of Brownback’s executive order. “The 14th Amendment to the federal Constitution clearly outlaws discrimination on the basis of national origin or alienage, which clearly applies here,” said Micah Kubic, executive director of the ACLU of Kansas. “Anything that’s discriminatory on its face is unconstitutional.” Kubic also said the nonprofit agencies that receive grant funding to help resettle refugees are often working on contract with the federal government and that Brownback’s order could interfere with those contracts. Brownback’s press secretary, Eileen Hawley, however, said the administration is confident the executive order is legal and enforceable. “The governor is acting within his authority as the governor of the state to protect the citizens of Kansas,” Hawley said.

He said he has always found Lawrence to be an enlightened city when it came to differences in religion and race. He found it difficult to process that more than half of state governors wanted to turn away the Syrian refugees. More education about his religion might lessen concerns, he said.

money from the state from participating or assisting “in any way in the relocation of Syrian refugees in Kansas.” “We don’t want to sound negative toward the governor, but we are hoping he will reconsider and open our doors to those in need as we have in the past,” he said. Brownback said in announcing his executive order that the United States had always been a refuge for the oppressed but that it would be better to try to resettle refugees from the Syrian civil war in a country closer to their homes. Safadi said he came to Kansas University 40 years ago from Jordan as a student and never left Lawrence. He is now a real estate developer and chairman of the Lawrence Alliance, a city advisory board on cultural and diversity issues.

in expenses to costs of additional staffing, employee benefits, technology maintenance, and rising supply and drug costs. LMH expects increases in revenues from inpatient and outpatient services, but the hospital projects those gains to be offset by limited payment increases from fixed-rate contracts such as Medicare, regulatory expenses, contractual reductions and other costs. “The upcoming year is certain to be challenging for LMH,” said hospital president and CEO Gene
Meyer in the press release. “The focus in 2016 will be to maintain current levels of financial performance while continuing to improve quality and patient satisfaction in the new reality of lower payments.” To offset expenses, LMH plans to increase rates overall by 5 percent, as well as a 3 percent increase in physician practice charges. Those increases will take effect Jan. 1. For 2016, total capital expenditures are projected at nearly $15 million.

The class action lawsuit, if certified by a judge, will include all 36,000 suspended voters as plaintiffs. “The right to vote is an important right,” Lawrence said. “What has been going on in Kansas has been concerning. It is a case of high importance, and there are a lot of people interested in its outcome.” Craig McCullah, Kobach’s spokesman, said Kobach’s office is still reviewing the complaint and had no further comment. The amended class action complaint names Kobach and Jamie Shew, Douglas County clerk, as defendants. The lawsuit is getting national attention because several states are now requiring proof of citizenship. Public Interest Legal Foundation, a nonprofit agency from the Washington, D.C., area, already has filed a brief supporting Kobach, saying Kansas has taken the lead nationally to ensure that only U.S. citizens vote in Kansas elections. The foundation said its brief includes numerous examples of the federal government’s inability “to keep aliens off the voter rolls and out of the voting booth.” “The (Kansas) lawsuit is another assault on Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach and his efforts to ensure the integrity of Kansas elections,” a news release said. A hearing on the preliminary injunction will be Dec. 4 in federal court in Kansas City, Kan. In 2013, the Kansas Legislature passed the Secure and Fair Elections Act, which required proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate or passport, to register to vote.

Regents approve KU plans for redevelopment By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep
Wichita — Kansas University’s $350 million Central District redevelopment plan and its novel funding mechanism won approval from the Kansas Board of Regents Wednesday, though with some hesitation. KU is setting up a publicprivate partnership, or P-3 for short, which university leaders say will help them move more quickly and complete a larger-thanusual project with less financial risk to the university and the state. “It is, as we’ve said before, a bold project,” KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little told the Regents. “It is a large project. We have really dug deep ... to see how we can go forward in spite of this being a difficult time, financially.” The Regents approved the project with the stipulation that once details of the development agree-

Jurors see evidence of shooting victim’s alleged drug dealing By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos
The felony murder trial of a 31-year-old Lawrence man continued Wednesday as jurors were shown evidence of the victim’s alleged marijuana dealing. Prosecutors allege that around 3 a.m. on March 8, 2014, Dustin D. Walker and codefendant Archie Robinson forced their way into Lawrence resident Patrick Roberts’ Walker apartment with a gun to steal cash or marijuana, and that when Roberts did not cooperate, Walker shot him. Walker’s attorney, Blake Glover, however, argues that evidence shows Walker and Robinson did not break into the apartment but went there to buy marijuana from Roberts, thus nullifying the felony murder charge’s underlying felony of aggravated burglary. On Wednesday, Lawrence Police Detective Zachariah Thomas showed jurors photographs of Roberts’ apartment after the shooting took place. The apartment appeared cluttered with half-eaten plates of food and trash strewn about. Inside Roberts’ room on his floor and in a chair lay buds of marijuana alongside plastic sandwich bags. A safe inside the room held two glass jars — one large and one small — full of marijuana, which Thomas described as “more than a personal amount.” Thomas said some of Roberts’ blood was inside the large jar. Someone had spread an olive green towel over the safe, apparently before police arrived at the scene. When police arrived around 3:10 a.m., Walker and Robinson had already fled the scene and witnesses — Roberts’ son, mother and brother — were taken away for interviews. The three did not give police permission to search the home after Roberts was killed, but
officers eventually obtained a search warrant and were able to enter the apartment. Walker was already convicted of the felony aggravated burglary at the conclusion of his first trial in February, but jurors in that trial could not agree on a verdict for the felony murder charge. In hearings that took place before Walker’s retrial began this week, Douglas County District Judge Paula Martin ruled the jurors in the retrial would not learn about Walker’s partial conviction in the case. Testimony will continue today. The trial is scheduled to last through Friday. Robinson was found guilty of both aggravated robbery and first-degree murder in March. He was given a life sentence without the possibility of parole for 20 years. Walker remains in the Douglas County Jail. — Public safety reporter Caitlin Doornbos can be reached at 832-7146 or cvdoornbos@ljworld.com.
Student Senate tackles impeachment
Minority issues debate dominates five-hour meeting By Conrad Swanson
Twitter: @conrad_swanson
At a frequently contentious Student Senate meeting with an overflow crowd on Kansas University’s campus Wednesday night, senators grappled with an attempt to impeach three student body leaders after they declined recent calls to resign. Last Friday, the Student Executive Committee voted 6-3, with one abstention, to adopt “a motion of no confidence in the leadership of Student Body President Jessie Pringle, Student Body Vice President Zach George and Chief of Staff Adam Moon.” As part of that motion, the committee asked Pringle, George and Moon to resign by 5 p.m. Wednesday or face impeachment. Those actions followed a forum on race, moderated by KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little, that drew a crowd of 1,000 people one week ago. Wednesday night in the Kansas Union, which remained open after midnight, well past its usual closing time, Pringle, George and Moon took turns addressing the Senate, speaking of their desire to continue in their current positions and addressing minority-related issues brought forward by the executive committee, student-led John Young/Journal-World Photo group Rock Chalk Invisible Hawk AUDIENCE MEMBER CORNELIUS BAKER asks a question during the Kansas and fellow senators.

KU diversity plan worries GOP lawmakers By John Hanna Associated Press
Topeka — The Kansas University plan to require “inclusion and belonging” training for everyone on campus drew criticism Wednesday from Republican legislators who worry that it will become an effort to squelch conservative thought.
It could complicate the university’s sometimes-rocky relationship with the GOP-dominated Legislature as lawmakers face tough budget decisions and potential spending cuts next year. The university and Lawrence are widely viewed as liberal political bastions. Diversity training is among the demands from the Rock Chalk Invisible Hawk student group,
which contends administrators haven’t done enough combat discrimination and other problems facing minority and “marginalized” students. The university says it is creating an advisory team to produce an “action plan” by mid-January that will cover “mandatory education.” Please see GOP, page 4A

“I did not resign, and I’m not leaving the student body behind, because I still have work to do,” Pringle told the crowd, expressing a desire “to commit myself” to the discussion of greater inclusiveness on campus. “In order for us to make real progress on campus, we have to come together,” George concluded. “We can’t be tearing people down, and we can’t pit students against each other. “We need improvement, not impeachment,” he added. But after more than five hours of related discussion, the Senate still grappled with bringing a bill of impeachment against Pringle, George and Moon. “You’re not listening, and you don’t believe us every single time we have an issue,” said Ramiro Sarmiento, of Rock Chalk Invisible Hawk, specifically addressing Pringle, George and Moon. “It’s insulting and degrading. I’ve been here four years, and I’m tired.” Added Kat Rainey, another member of the group: “Us being in one space does not equal unity.” One-fourth of the Senate’s voting members must sign a bill of impeachment, according to the body’s rules. The process next continues to a potentially lengthy committee phase that leads to an official hearing with majority support. A two-thirds majority vote, on roll call, is required to formally pass an impeachment. “We are going to continue to work to take actions to address these demands,” Moon told the Journal-World after an impeachment bill with

Earlier in the meeting, explaining the rules of impeachment to her peers, Senator Shegufta Huma outlined the executive committee’s grievances. “The committee found no confidence in the president, vice president and chief of staff,” she said, “based on the lack of action from the three officers throughout their terms to address issues facing multicultural and marginalized students.” A majority of the Senate also voted in favor of a resolution supporting further discussion of the demands issued at last week’s forum by Rock Chalk Invisible Hawk. The issue of racial tension on university campuses came up earlier Wednesday at the Kansas Board of Regents meeting in Wichita, where Pringle, who is chairwoman of the Regents Students’ Advisory Committee, told the board some students are “hurting.” A day earlier, in a message to campus, KU Provost Jeff Vitter announced the university has assembled an advisory team and plans to deliver an action plan by mid-January to address racial disparity and inclusion on campus. Some Republican state lawmakers took issue with that announcement Wednesday, saying they feared diversity training would squelch conservative thought on campus.

About 1:40 a.m. Nov. 1, officers responded to a report of a house party in the 1300 block of Kentucky Street. A man who said he had been at the party left the scene and called police from across town; he told them drugs were present at the “out of control” party, and he requested officers to investigate. The caller said he did not personally see a weapon being drawn. McKinley said three officers then went to the scene, and a fourth went to the caller’s location. When police arrived at the party, McKinley said they found “a large crowd of people in the front and back of the home, as well as inside,” but many left after noticing the officers’ arrival. McKinley said officers spoke with some individuals there who said there had been a disturbance and fight, “with at least some of them alleging someone may have had a firearm.” The investigation, listed as a battery and aggravated assault case, garnered public interest after Kynnedi Grant, president of Kansas University’s Black Student Union, shared her account of events on social media and again in person before a crowd of 1,000 at KU’s town hall forum on race last week. Grant alleged she and some black friends went to the party and were confronted by a group
of white men who called them racial slurs. She said someone also spit on her and put her in a “chokehold.” She also alleged one white man pulled a gun on two of her friends. She said they spoke to police officers outside. “No report was made, no comfort given to us,” she wrote in a Facebook post. “We are black. Our attackers and police are white.” The incident was documented that night, but the majority of the details were added to the report last Wednesday — the same day as the town hall and a week and a half after the alleged incident — when the victim and others agreed to come in and meet with officers for formal interviews, McKinley said. McKinley said he could not “speak to why that was the day they came in.” The interviews were apparently helpful, as McKinley said “information from (last) Wednesday’s interviews provided (police) enough detail to follow up on the allegations made of crimes occurring that night.” “I understand we did not have that level of detail that evening,” McKinley said. McKinley said victims and witnesses alleged people were using racial slurs in the interviews, but he declined to describe those in detail so as not to affect further interviews with anyone police haven’t spoken with yet. Grant did not respond to multiple requests, via email and in person, for an interview over the past week. — Caitlin Doornbos

John Rubin of Shawnee. “I think we will definitely have a role, and we will be watching.” Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little told The Associated Press in a brief interview Wednesday that the university won’t be trying to limit what people think and noted that diversity training already exists in athletics. “Many industries have mandatory trainings about diversity in their settings,” Gray-Little said during a break at the Wichita meeting of the state Board of Regents, which oversees the university. “So this is not anything that is so unusual or that wouldn’t happen in business.” Board Chairman Shane Bangerter said it has confidence in Gray-Little and the university’s process for addressing student concerns. “We want to be colorblind, and whatever policies we can have in place to help us do that, I think our board is for,” he said. And Democratic Rep. Jim Ward, of Wichita, said GOP legislators’ concerns are “ridiculous.” He said diversity training educates participants about cultural differences. “It tends to unpack the cultural significance of words and why some words are more offensive than others,” Ward said. Provost Jeff Vitter did
— Board of Regents chair Shane Bangerter not provide details about plans for diversity training in a statement Tuesday, other than it would involve “facilitated sessions.” Details will be explored by the advisory team, university spokeswoman Jill Hummels said in email. She added that Vitter and Sara Rosen, senior vice provost for academic affairs, “are committed to ensuring such programs take place.” “And they strongly believe in the value of having a facilitator present to help ensure people grasp and retain the concepts,” Hummels wrote. The Invisible Hawk group issued a statement Wednesday, saying: “The most basic level of training would be required cultural competency classes for all students as well as training for staff, faculty, and administration.” But Clay Barker, the Kansas Republican Party’s executive director and a KU graduate, said in an email that at best the training will be “mandatory drudgery” and at worst, “political indoctrination.” In a later interview, Barker said he agrees with spelling out expectations for behavior, but the university’s language sounds “almost like it’s the leftist ideology.” Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce, a Nickerson Republican, said he’s worried about potential cost of mandatory training, given the campus’ 24,700 students.

Post-therapy, son blames Mom for life problems Dear Annie: My son, “Robert,” is 50 years old. He has no contact with his older sister or me. When Robert was 13, my husband and I divorced. His father was a troubled person. He was a typical oldfashioned European father who believed in physical punishment, and used a belt when disciplining his son. I tried to protect Robert, and this often caused a great many arguments with my husband. After the divorce, the children lived with me. When Robert was in high school, he got into drugs and became too difficult for me to handle, so I sent him to live with his father, who lived close by. Robert continued to act out and was punished often, but he

graduated with honors and was well-liked. He went on to college, married young and had two children. The oldest is autistic, which put a great deal of pressure on the marriage and they divorced. I love my grandchildren. Robert used to bring them to visit every summer. We helped them financially. Robert cut his father out of his life, but still kept in touch with
Want ‘More’? — As you wish Every week brings new streaming options — if not every day. The Crackle streaming service launches “The Art of More” today. This marks the first scripted drama for the outlet best known as the home to Jerry Seinfeld’s series “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.” “More” stars Christian Cooke (“Magic City”) as Graham Connor, a high-flying operator in New York’s art auction world. He’s a man with rough edges, scant months removed from plundering antiquities as a soldier in Iraq. Not to give too much away, but Graham uses bluster, charm and a bit of blackmail to cajole fussy collector Arthur Davenport (Cary Elwes, “The Princess Bride”) into using his influence to get him a job at an elite auction house. Graham’s street-savvy ways do not sit well with his bloodless and aristocratic colleagues and rivals. He runs afoul of Roxanna Whitman (Kate Bosworth, “Still Alice”), a well connected auction insider who hates Graham for poaching a client. She will do anything to protect her relationship with Samuel Brukner (Dennis Quaid, “Vegas”), a mega-rich real estate tycoon whose background may be as shady as Graham’s. “More” moves at a fast clip and seems invested in sketching out the filthy-rich milieu rather than drawing three-dimensional characters or giving them anything interesting or original to say. The series begins with two soldiers arguing over the merits of New York pizza versus Chicago deepdish. It doesn’t get much more cliche-ridden than that. Crackle hopes this 10-episode series brings larger numbers of viewers to its corner of the sprawling TV market. Despite a well-known cast, “More” may not be different enough to get much attention. It would be right at home on basic cable, tucked somewhere between USA’s “Suits” and “White Collar.” And those are both better shows. Tonight’s other highlights l A journalist is silenced after a story on the NSA on “Bones” (7 p.m., Fox, TV-14). l Sophie makes life complicated on “Sleepy Hollow” (8 p.m., Fox, TV-14). l Red lands in a perilous spot on “The Blacklist” (8 p.m., NBC, TV-14). l Mellie proves her mettle as “Scandal” (8 p.m., ABC) embarks on a winter hiatus. l Sherlock makes his father an offer he can’t refuse on “Elementary” (9 p.m., CBS, TV-14). l Sinclair finds an advantage on the half-season finale of “How to Get Away With Murder” (9 p.m., ABC). l “Lip Sync Battle” (9 p.m., Spike) offers an hourlong holiday special, featuring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen, Anthony Mackie and surprise guest stars.
me. But in therapy, he became convinced that all of his problems are my fault and that his sister didn’t experience what he went through. Now he wants no contact with either of us. I write and text, but get no response. Annie, I thought I was doing the best thing for him. I love my son. What can I do? — Hurting Mother Dear Mother: It is not unusual for children to blame the parents when their lives go off the rails. Robert sees only that you left him with a father who may have been abusive. He doesn’t see the reasons behind it or that you thought it was best at the time. And right now, he’d find any explanation from you to be selfserving.

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) HHHH You might have difficulty mixing together various people in your day-to-day life, as you have quite the plethora of personalities around you. Tonight: Follow your gut. Taurus (April 20-May 20) HHHH You will take the lead if no one else wants to. You might not want the extra work, but you will succeed. Tonight: Work through the stress.

Tonight: Spend time with your favorite person.
We cannot guarantee that this can be fixed, but we suggest you leave Robert a voicemail or write a letter or email saying you are sorry for the decisions you made that had a negative impact on his life. Do not make excuses or give explanations. Simply say you regret those choices and that you love him. You’d be surprised what a sincere apology can do. Meanwhile, if you are in contact with your ex-daughter-inlaw, you might be able to maintain contact with the grandchildren through her.

Life of service Glee Smith Jr.’s service to Kansas and commitment to community activities set an outstanding example for the next generation of state residents to follow.
T
he state of Kansas needs more Glee Smiths. Smith died earlier this week after a relatively short illness and a life of tremendous involvement in an amazingly broad range of civic and professional activities. He loved Kansas and its history and did his utmost to do what he could to better and improve the state. He was a top-flight and highly respected attorney and served with distinction for 18 years in the Kansas Senate, including eight years as the Senate president. He was an active member of the Kansas University Endowment Association Board of Trustees and received KU’s highest honor, the Distinguished Service Citation. He served on the Kansas Board of Regents for eight years, and prized his role as a director of the Kansas 4-H Foundation. He also was honored and cited by legal, civic, historical, Scout and fraternal organizations. Smith was born in Rozel, Kan., and served our nation as a navigator in the U.S. Army Air Corps during World War II. He spent most of his years in Larned, until 1991, when he and his wife, Geraldine, moved to Lawrence and continued their involvement in and commitment to various local civic activities. Smith exuded optimism, enthusiasm and a positive attitude. The 94-year-old attorney maintained up-to-date connections with most all of his activities and associations. He was particularly concerned about the welfare, strength and future of KU and the role of the regents and state legislators in helping the school reach its potential. As noted above, the state needs more Glee Smiths. Where are the young men and women in Kansas today who have the drive, vision and commitment to give as much of themselves to the betterment of Kansas as did Smith?

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 19, 1915: “That part of the failures at the local high school are due to the years lack of interest of the parents, ago is the conclusion arrived at by IN 1915 different members of the faculty. Notices were sent out last month to several parents that failing work was being done by their children. Only one parent answered the response and said that he would cooperate with the authorities in improving the scholastic work of his child. Many students after becoming seniors begin to slight their class work and in some cases students have failed to graduate on this account. It is said this condition could not have happened if the parent would follow the pupil’s progress.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

GOP should get serious, look at Christie Washington — Paris was for all Americans, but especially for Republicans, a summons to seriousness that should have two immediate impacts on the Republican presidential contest. It should awaken the party’s nominating electorate from its reveries about treating the presidency as an entry-level job. And it should cause Republicans to take another look at Chris Christie, beginning with his speech in Florida the day after the Paris attacks. Until now, many Republicans have been treating the nominating process as a mechanism for sending a
George Will

“
To the large extent that Trump’s appeal is his forceful persona, no candidate in the Republican field can match Christie’s combination of a prosecutor’s bearing and a governor’s executive temperament.” message to Washington. The eruption of war in the capital of a NATO ally is a reminder that the nominating process will potentially send a commander in chief to Washington. This might, and should, hasten the eclipse of Carly Fiorina, Ben Carson and especially Donald Trump. His coarse, vulgar and nasty 95-minute effusion last week in Fort Dodge, Iowa, answered this question: When he begins to fade, will he draw upon a hitherto well-hidden capacity for graciousness, or will he become a caricature of his normal persona, which itself is a caricature of democracy’s most embarrassing
possibilities? Watch Trump on YouTube (http://ow.ly/ULbFW), and consider his manner in light of his stupendously unconservative proposal, made one day earlier, for a federal police force. (It would conduct about 500,000 deportations a month to remove approximately 11.4 million illegal immigrants in two years). Then watch Christie on YouTube (http://ow.ly/ULc5P), and pay particular attention to his affirmation of the foundational conservative belief in the indispensability, the sovereignty and the prerogatives of nationhood. To the large extent that Trump’s appeal is his forceful persona, no candidate in the Republican field can match Christie’s combination of a prosecutor’s bearing and a governor’s executive temperament. In Florida, Christie sounded a new theme: “There are all too many people in academia and in global business that aren’t really interested in America as a nation-state anymore.” A day after the Paris attacks, outside the theater that was targeted, a German musician, seated at a grand piano bearing the peace symbol cherished by people who thought the Cold War was not worth winning, played John Lennon’s saccharine “Imagine,” which includes this: Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do Nothing to kill or die for ... Right. Just one big happy caliphate. Lennon, as bad a political thinker as he was a grammarian, never learned this: Countries, meaning nation-states, are, for all their shortcoming and dangers, indispensable for making self-government possible and secure. Heightened security concerns might be Christie’s opportunity. The more disorderly the world becomes, the less luminous is the one credential that supposedly qualifies Hillary Clinton for the presidency. The credential is not her adequate but unremarkable eight-year Senate career. Rather, it is her four years as secretary of state. Recall the question Ronald Reagan posed to voters at the conclusion of his single debate with President Jimmy Carter a week before the 1980 election: Are you better off today than you were four years ago? The electorate’s answer was emphatic. In a debate 10 months from now, the Republican nominee will ask a variant of Reagan’s question: Is America safer or more respected today, anywhere in the world, than it was when Clinton became secretary of state? Today, Republican voters need to ask themselves a question: Who do they want on stage asking that question? It is beyond
peculiar; it is political malpractice for Republicans to fritter away time and attention on candidates who, innocent of governing experience, cannot plausibly ask that question with properly devastating effect. For an example of pluperfect unseriousness, consider this Trump claim, which is amazingly absurd even considering the source: “I got to know (Putin) very well because we were both on ‘60 Minutes,’ we were stablemates, and we did very well that night.” They were not in the same stable; they were not in the same green room; they were not on the same continent. Trump was in a “60 Minutes” segment taped in Manhattan; Putin was in another segment, taped eight time zones away in Moscow. Yet somehow Trump “got to know him very well.” Every day that such errant nonsense sloshes through the Republican nominating debate is a day when the party’s claim to represent what the country craves — adult supervision — becomes less credible. Fortunately, sufficient days remain for Republicans to reshuffle the deck, to relegate Trump’s rampaging to the nation’s mental attic, and to recognize in Christie a serious political talent. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.
PUBLIC FORUM
Cruel move To the editor: Our governor has once again shown us his cruel and uncaring nature by denying help to the victims of terrorists, also known as refugees. Gov. Brownback, in a blatant partisan move, is withholding aid to the very people who have suffered the most from terrorism. I agree with President Obama that this is “shameful” and not who we are as a people. I wonder if there is a means to circumvent Brownback’s cruelty by a local initiative to support refugees in our community. Karl Ramberg, Lawrence
Adoption need To the editor: On Nov. 21, people all across the United States will observe National Adoption Day. It’s a day to bring attention to the almost 100,000 children in our nation’s foster care system who are legally free to be adopted. Having worked in and around the child welfare system for 23 years, I can attest to the need we have for loving individuals, couples and families to open their hearts and homes to meeting the needs of Kansas youth. Currently in Kansas, we have 6,526 children in foster care, and as of Sept. 30, there were approximately 350 youth who were legally free to be adopted, with no identified adoptive resource, and this is heartbreaking. To have removed children from their families, have them live in the system for years then exit the system with no lifelong, dependable relationship is really unacceptable, and we as a society can do better. I understand that not everyone is in a position to foster or adopt, but everyone can support our foster and adoptive families, and everyone can get involved in supporting the youth in care. I am proud to say that The Shelter Inc. has
been involved in helping to improve the lives of children and families through facilitating and supporting 200 adoptions over the years and, on an annual basis, through our various programs, supporting hundreds of children in Douglas County and northeast Kansas. If you are interested in learning more about how you can help, call us. Gina Meier-Hummel, executive director, The Shelter Inc., Lawrence
Path to war To the editor: The U.S. path to involvement in Vietnam was more nuanced than described by Curtis Bennett in his letter of Nov. 17. The timeline of involvement stretches back to the post-war period. President Truman established an advisory group in 1950 to assist the French in then-Indochina and President Eisenhower considered U.S. involvement in France’s ground war. U.S. advisory actions in Vietnam expanded under Presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy, and President Johnson sent the first contingent of what, by 1968, would be over 500,000 troops. Advisory actions and combat operations occurred simultaneously in Vietnam; my father served as an adviser to the South Vietnamese Army in 1966-67. Mr. Bennett is correct in that our war in Vietnam started out small in terms of “boots on the ground” and our involvement in Syria has the potential to become more complex in light of the recent attacks in Paris and the worldwide threat posed by ISIL. The experience of Vietnam (and the more recent war in Iraq) will forever remain in the nation’s consciousness. I served over 30 years in the military and none of us who trained for war “naively assume that nobody is going to get hurt, nobody is going to die!” Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee aptly stated, “It is well that war is so terrible — otherwise we would grow too fond of it.” In the end it is our elected civilian leadership, not the military, who require counsel-
ing on the pitfalls and dangers of getting into a war too hastily. David L. Teska, Lawrence
Don’t be silent To the editor: Gov. Brownback’s words that admitting Syrian refugees is “an unacceptable risk” and ordering state agencies not to aid in their relocation is feeding fear and xenophobia. In the “church world” even in just the “Christian world,” there are often disagreements about the interpretation of scripture. But in my years of being a member of a church (I grew up Baptist) and now of being a denominational leader in the United Church of Christ for almost 25 years, NEVER have I heard a dispute or disagreement about these words of Jesus: “I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not take care of you?’ Then he will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’” (Matthew 25:43-45) As a person of faith, I am outraged and I refuse to be silent and complicit in turning our backs on the least of these. I invite others to join me in letting the governor know that this is not who we are as Christians or as people who care for all humanity. Contact the governor and refuse to be silent. Edith Guffey, Lawrence, conference minister, United Church of Christ in Kansas and Oklahoma

“who have only received a (sexually explicit) picture and are facing really harsh penalties.” Swain said an 18-yearold high school senior who receives nude photos of a 14-year-old high school freshman could face a sentence of 25 years to life in prison and have to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life. “It’s only the boys who ever get charged,” Swain said. “That’s not equal protection under the law.” Swain said equal protection under the law in her opinion would mean that both girls and boys would be prosecuted in such cases. “If a girl takes a picture of herself, that’s a crime. Then, when she sends that photo, that’s also a crime,” Swain said. “But she’s never going to be charged.” Branson said various factors weigh in on what the proper resolution to a case might be. For example, whether the child intimidated or threatened another for the image may be a “red flag,” Branson said, and age difference between the subjects may also come into play. For some, it may mean facing criminal charges, but for others, it may be best to direct the child to an educational program or counseling. In the past, Branson’s office and the Sexual Trauma & Abuse Care Center, formerly GaDuGi, had even teamed up to create a program for juveniles found to be involved in sexting to learn about appropriate conduct and healthy relationships. “We’re not interested in making every juvenile a felon,” Branson said. That education extends into the classroom in Lawrence public middle schools, as sexting is addressed in human sexuality curriculum, Lawrence Schools spokeswoman Julie Boyle said. The students are taught about appropriate electronic communication using the National Human Sexual-
ity Education Standards to “provide clear, consistent and straightforward guidance on sexuality education,” Boyle said. These National Standards include: l Describe the advantages and disadvantages of communicating using technology and social media l Analyze the impact of technology and social media on friendships and relationships l Demonstrate effective skills to negotiate agreements about the use of technology in relationships l Develop a plan to stay safe when using social media l Describe strategies to use social media safely, legally and respectfully Boyle said that if and when school administrators are made aware of such conduct between students, “our schools handle any disciplinary matters on a case-by-case basis and work with law enforcement when appropriate.” Lawrence schools this fall have also been working with the Lawrence Police Department presenting informational sessions for parents on digital safety, Boyle said. So far this school year, the district has held meetings at South and Southwest middle schools. They plan to hold two more meetings at Liberty Memorial Central and West middle schools next semester. Branson said parents should not be afraid to have “frank and honest discussions” with their children about such issues. Questions such as “Why is this person asking for this photo?” “Is this a healthy relationship?” and “What are reasons you should not (sext)?” are good conversation points for parents to discuss. “We have to recognize that kids do this stuff, but we have to impress upon them the consequences of their actions,” Branson said. “Once you press ‘send,’ it’s there forever.”
several campuses and have been especially contentious at KU. A town hall forum on race last week drew 1,000 people, and in the following days there was an attempt by some student senators to oust the body’s top three officers — including Pringle — for what critics called their lack of response to diversity complaints. Bangerter urged Pringle and other student body presidents to use this difficult time as an opportunity to be “statesmen.” “Rise above the rhetoric,” he said. “Now is the hour for you all to stand up and to take a position that stands for what is right, what is open, what is proper. We have processes in place for change, and
they’re good processes, and we need to exercise those privileges and those rights with due respect for each other, for differing opinions.” When asked whether he thought specific racerelated business would come before the board, Bangerter said changes would most likely happen at the campus level. “We set broad policy,” he said. “We don’t dictate to the universities the details ... that allow for all the various entities to have a say at their particular universities.” He said the board does encourage universities to follow open processes that maintain people’s right to free speech and also ensure all sides feel comfortable.

photo, that’s sexual exploitation of a child. If one asks a minor to send a sexually explicit photo, that’s electronic solicitation. If a minor takes a sexually explicit photo of his or herself, that’s creation of child pornography. If he or she sends it to someone else, that’s distribution of child pornography. But there is a “gray area” when it comes to prosecutorial discretion, Branson said. Each case must be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. “The gray comes in within our discretion,” Branson said. “Is this conduct that needs to be addressed as criminal?” Branson said the scenarios behind minorsexting cases he sees in Douglas County vary. In some cases, a teenager might coerce another to send another a nude photo, or one sends an explicit photo to another person unsolicited. Others may involve pictures or videos of minors engaged in some unlawful sexual act. In some instances, the person depicted knowingly agrees to be recorded under the condition of the other party promising to delete the image. In others, those depicted are not aware they are being recorded. Overall, Branson said, it’s boys who are predominantly reported in sexting cases. Branson said there are “very few cases where females are sharing” sexually explicit photos of boys. “Usually females get unwanted photos,” Branson said. “A male will share a photo of himself in an effort to entice the female to share back.” Lawrence criminal defense attorney Sarah Swain said the disparity between genders charged is unfair. Swain said she has represented “dozens” of teenage boys across Kansas

PARIS RAIDS THWART ATTACK 2 suspects killed, but main target not arrested
Police break a door to enter a church in the Paris suburb of SaintDenis on Wednesday to secure the area.
Kim Hjelmgaard and John Bacon USA TODAY
A fierce firefight with a band of suspected terrorists holed up in a suburban Paris apartment ended Wednesday with at least two suspects killed and an imminent attack thwarted, authorities said. Paris prosecutor François Molins said SWAT teams and other officers fired 5,000 rounds of ammunition in an hours-long assault that targeted Abdelhamid Abaaoud, 27, accused of orchestrating a series of attacks that killed at least 129 people in the French capital Friday. Abaaoud was not arrested in the raid, and the dead suspects had not been identified, Mollins said. Phone data and eyewitness statements led the manhunt to the apartment, he said. One of the dead was a female suicide bomber who detonated explosives as police closed in. At least five police officers were injured during the operation, which began around 4:30 a.m. local time. A police dog named Diesel was killed. Periodic gunfire and explosions were heard for hours around Saint-Denis, a Paris suburb about 5 miles from the city center, where the operation took place. The apartment is about a mile from Stade de France, where three bombers blew themselves up during Friday’s attacks. Residents of the working-class area were evacuated and placed

When the bombs started falling near her family’s apartment building in Aleppo, Syria, Amal Saleh was too scared to leave their home. After a 21-month journey that scattered her family around the world and left one of them dead, the Syrian refugee finds herself scared to leave her new home near Fort Lauderdale. This time, it’s the Americans she’s scared of. Saleh said she’s watched in horror as Americans have focused their fears after the Paris terrorist attacks on Syrian refugees trying to find safety. “The same way that Americans are afraid of us, now we are afraid of them,” said Saleh, 45, from the home she shares with her husband and their four teenage chil-

Federal Reserve paves the way for December rate hike Further delay could be harmful, officials say Paul Davidson USA TODAY
The Federal Reserve cleared the way Wednesday for its first interest rate hike in nearly a decade, releasing a Fed meeting summary that said its criteria for acting “could well be met” by December. Fed officials said global economic troubles have eased, and a delay could intensify market uncertainty and undermine confiWASHINGTON
dence in the economy, according to minutes of the Fed’s meeting Oct. 27-28. Investors cheered. The Dow Jones industrial average, up about 130 points before the summary was released, shot up an additional 118 to close at 17,737. The Fed’s conditions for raising its benchmark rate “could well be met by the time of the next meeting (Dec. 15-16),” the minutes say. A Fed move is likely to nudge up borrowing costs for consumers and businesses and possibly douse the 6-year-old bull market.

A Fed move is likely to nudge up borrowing costs for consumers and businesses and possibly douse the 6-yearold bull market.
The meeting account shows Fed officials were even more bullish. “A number” of them said a delay “could increase uncertainty in financial markets and unduly magnify” the significance of the first
hike. Policymakers voiced concerns about the risk of asset bubbles posed by rock-bottom rates and fretted that standing pat could signal a “lack of confidence in the U.S. economy.” “They seem intent on going in December,” said economist Richard Moody of Regions Financial. The Fed said risks to the economy from overseas weakness have “diminished,” and meager inflation is likely to pick up as the effects of low oil prices and a strong dollar dissipate. Since the meeting, data showed employers added a robust 271,000 jobs last month and unemployment dipped to 5%.

A TERRORIST TIMELINE The intense global focus on the attacks in Paris that killed 129 people and the downing of a Russian airliner in Egypt’s Sinai peninsula that killed 224 overshadows numerous acts of terrorism that occur with tragic regularity around the world. USA TODAY reporter Oren Dorell has compiled a list of some of the worst ones to date this month: NOV. 1: MOGADISHU, SOMALIA, 12 DEAD
NOV. 12, BEIRUT, 43 DEAD
At least 43 people were killed and more than 240 wounded in two suicide bomb blasts claimed by Islamic State. The bombs targeted a crowded residential neighborhood in Beirut’s southern suburbs, a stronghold of the Shiite Muslim group Hezbollah, which has been supporting Syria’s President Bashar Assad in the civil war raging in neighboring Syria.
At least 12 people were killed in a car bomb attack on the Sahafi hotel in the Somali capital. Somalia’s al-Qaeda affiliate, al-Shabab, claimed responsibility for the assault on the hotel, which is frequented by members of parliament, government employees and businessmen, according to France’s i-24 TV. NOV. 4: AL ARISH, EGYPT, 3 DEAD
NOV. 13: BAGHDAD, 26 DEAD
Three people were killed and 10 injured by a car bomb on the North Sinai Police Officers Club. The Islamic State’s local affiliate, the Sinai Province, claimed responsibility for the suicide attack on its Twitter account, according to Daily News Egypt. NOV. 4 AND 13: WEST BANK AND ISRAEL, 3 DEAD
Three Israelis were killed in separate attacks by Palestinians who used a vehicle and a knife. The attacks have been encouraged by Hamas, the terroristbranded group that governs Gaza, and other militant organizations, but they are lone wolf attacks.

NOV. 13: PARIS, 129 DEAD
A series of shootings and suicide bombings at restaurants, a soccer stadium and a music hall in the French capital killed at least 129 people and injured hundreds more. The Islamic State claimed responsibility.
NOV. 5: ARSAL, LEBANON, 6 DEAD
At least six people were killed in a suicide blast targeting Sunni Muslim clerics meeting to negotiate the release of hostages held by Islamic militants in Syria, according to the BBC. It’s unclear whether anyone claimed responsibility for the attack, but Arsal was the scene of fighting in August 2014 between Lebanese security forces and al-Qaeda’s Syria affiliate, the al-Nusra Front, and the Islamic State, according to Agence France-Presse.
At least 26 people were killed by a suicide bombing and two roadside bombs in the Iraqi capital. The suicide bombing targeted mourners in the Al-Ashara alMubashareen mosque during a funeral for a member of a Shiite militia fighting the Islamic State. Twenty-one people were killed. Five more died in roadside blasts. The attacks were claimed by the Islamic State, AFP reported.
NOV. 17: YOLA, NIGERIA, 34 DEAD
A suicide bomb attack on a produce market killed 34 people and wounded 80 others, according to the Associated Press. Boko Haram, Nigeria’s Islamic State affiliate, which has killed 1,000 people in Nigeria since President Muhammadu Buhari took office in May, is suspected in the attack.

NOV. 18: KANO, NIGERIA, 15 DEAD
Another suicide bomb attack at a mobile phone market in the northern Nigerian city of Kano killed at least 15 people and wounded about 60 others, AFP reported. The bombers were a young woman, 18, and a girl, 11, Kano police spokesman Musa Magaji Majia said. Boko Haram is suspected in the attack.

half an hour, these discussions. It’s not good enough.” Saleh said the vetting process her family went through was far more rigorous. Their screening took place in Istanbul. After the family home in Aleppo was destroyed — one they had bought a few weeks before — they paid about $200 each for a smuggler to take them to the Turkish border. Her husband, who suffered multiple strokes after Syria’s civil war erupted, was unable to walk by that point. After waiting for a Turkish police patrol to move past, the family rushed across the border, a friend carrying her husband on his back. They reached a small city and bought bus tickets to Istanbul, where they spent the next 21 months trying to find a home. Saleh said the family had three different interviews that lasted several hours each with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the group that has been screening refugees across Europe and helps place them in host countries. After that, she was sent to another building for three more interviews with different officials. Each time, Saleh said, people questioned them about their entire family history. Much of the questioning focused on whether they had any ties to terrorist organizations, whether they supported them, whether they gave them financial support. “They even asked us if we ever supported a terrorist ... with a plate of food,” she said. Sometimes, the family was questioned together. Sometimes, each member of the family was separated and interrogated individually. She said many of the questions made it clear that her interviewers had checked their backstory and asked about specifics about their lives in Syria. “They asked us so many details so many times that it’s almost impossible for anyone to get into this country unless they’re very well-vetted,” she said.

Islamic State: Can contained bomb John Bacon and Bart Jansen USA TODAY
The Islamic State on Wednesday released a photo purporting to show the bomb that brought down a Russian passenger jet. The information was released in Dabiq, the Islamic State’s online magazine, according to the SITE Intelligence Group, a U.S.-based organization that monitors extremists’ activity online and international media. The photo showed a Schweppes Pineapple Gold soft drink can and two small devices with wires. The images could not be independently verified. The Islamic State said it took advantage of a security weakness at Egypt’s Sharm el-Sheik airport to get the bomb on the plane. The Russian Metrojet bound for St. Petersburg da for more than 30 years, said he hears the same story from other Syrian refugees fleeing the wartorn country.

crashed in Egypt’s Sinai about 23 minutes after taking off on Oct. 31, killing all 224 aboard. Aviation-security experts say a relatively small explosive could bring down an airliner. While the claim sounded farfetched, previous investigations have found that a well-placed explosive could destroy a plane because of the speed it’s traveling and the pressure the hull is under at a high altitude. “It’s frighteningly small — it’s not much bigger than a pack of cigarettes,” said Randall Larsen, a retired Air Force colonel who is a senior fellow at the George Washington University Center for Cyber and Homeland Security. “It’s critical that it be in the right place.” In the case of Pan Am 103, which blew up over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, the FBI determined the plane was brought down by 12 to 14 ounces of explosive. years, Daghistani said he knew a backlash was coming the moment he heard about the Paris terrorist attacks. The physician and board mem-
ber of the Syrian American Council said he had barely started mourning the attacks before his mind wandered to the expected response from Americans. “After World War II, we put the Japanese in camps, as if they were responsible for what happened in Pearl Harbor. After 9/11, Muslims got marginalized in this country,” he said. “So yes, I’m anxious.” Saleh hopes America’s politicians learn about the vetting process and understand what she and other refugees have gone through to reach the USA. Her family is scattered around the world. She has three brothers in Germany, two sisters in Sweden, one sister in Lebanon, another in Turkey, and her parents are still in Aleppo, too old and too tired to run. Last month, she learned that her 27-year-old niece drowned when a boat carrying her family and other refugees capsized in the Mediterranean Sea. Like so many other recent arrivals to the USA, the family struggles to get by. Saleh’s husband receives medical treatment for the series of strokes he experienced while fleeing the country. The war exacerbated her medical troubles as well. Saleh was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a mastectomy, chemotherapy and radiation treatments. As her medications became increasingly difficult to find amid the civil war, the cancer spread to her bones and her lungs. The family relies on the Salehs’ eldest daughter, the only one who speaks any English, to navigate their new homeland. The family has been helped by the International Catholic Migration Commission, which paid for rent and other basics for the Salehs’ first three months in the USA. Syrian Americans in South Florida are taking over the assistance, helping the family with groceries and utility bills and providing a laptop. Saleh repeatedly praises God for her family’s good fortune and said she looks forward to the day that her family can become legal permanent residents and eventually U.S. citizens. For now, she won’t even go outside out of fear
that her neighbors will hear her speak or figure out that a Syrian family lives next door. She panics whenever she thinks about her children starting in their new schools and their classmates figuring out their history. “We used to go for a walk, the whole family,” she said. “Even if it was dark, I used to feel safe. Now, I don’t dare do that anymore.” Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy. To reach us, contact Standards Editor Brent Jones at 800-8727073 or e-mail accuracy@usatoday.com.

Jeb Bush outlines ISIL fight strategy Doesn’t rule out ground war in Syria David Jackson USA TODAY
CHARLESTON, S . C.
Jeb Bush signaled a willingness to deploy U.S. ground troops or more special forces to fight the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq, saying Wednesday he would rely on military advisers to develop an overall mission to destroy the militant group. “It’s a question of what the military commanders say,” Bush told USA TODAY in an interview before delivering a national security speech at The Citadel, the military college of South Carolina. “Effective policy means you’re seeking the advice of the combatants” on the GETTY IMAGES “optimum Jeb Bush says strategy.” he would The former build a Florida govercoalition. nor said he would tell commanders to “give me choices, give me options” on how to complete the mission against the Islamic State. The group, also known as ISIS or ISIL, is responsible for last week’s terrorist attacks in Paris and has threatened similar violence in the United States. “The mission is to destroy ISIS — not to contain it,” said Bush, who criticized the Obama administration’s current plan as an ineffective effort to defeat the Islamic State in its havens in Syria and Iraq. An effective strategy would not necessarily require a large American troop and special operations presence, Bush said, vowing to form an anti-ISIS coalition with regional and European allies, particularly France. “We could create a coalition to support local fighters,” Bush said, and forge “safe zones” within Syria and a no-fly zone over it. He also called for arming Kurdish forces to help the government in Iraq fight the Islamic State there. In his speech at The Citadel, Bush told cadets that they may be on “the front lines” in the fight against the Islamic State. “Militarily, we need to intensify our efforts in the air — and on the ground,” he said. “While air power is essential, it alone cannot bring the results we seek.” In terms of overall national security strategy, Bush called for programs designed to defend the homeland, rebuild the military, reform Pentagon spending and operations, and “restore international order and promote international security.” Bush, who retooled the national security speech that was scheduled before the Paris attacks, said “the best policy for creating the conditions for peace is to develop the ability to wage war with crushing force.” President Obama, meanwhile, has said his strategy to fight the Islamic State is working.
OBAMA TURNS UP HEAT AGAIN ON CHINA’S ROLE IN SOUTH CHINA SEA EPA
Dispute has been a major focus at APEC summit

Chinese President Xi Jinping stuck to remarks about the “One road, One belt” economic initiative.
Thomas Maresca
Special for USA TODAY MANILA President Obama turned up the heat again Wednesday on China’s growing assertiveness in the South China Sea as world leaders gathered here for the start of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit meeting. Speaking to reporters after a meeting with Philippine President Benigno Aquino III, Obama said they discussed how to address China’s provocations in disputed areas of the sea, including its creation of new islands and construction of lighthouses, ports, military facilities and airstrips. “We agree on the need for bold steps to lower tensions, including pledging to halt further reclamation, new construction, and militarization of disputed areas in the South China Sea,” Obama said. The South China Sea dispute has been a major focus surrounding the APEC event, which brings together 21 Pacific Rim leaders to focus on trade and business issues in the region. Countries such as the Philippines worry about China’s military presence and its domination over fishing grounds that have long been used by many nations in the region. The president’s statement came on the heels of Tuesday’s visit to a Philippine Navy vessel and his announcement that the U.S. would transfer two additional ships to the Philippine Navy and provide $250 million in maritime security assistance to allies and partners in the region. Once the APEC summit got underway, however, Obama toned down his rhetoric, focusing his remarks before an audience of business leaders almost entirely
on the issue of climate change. “If we want to prevent the worst effects of climate change before it’s too late, the time to act is now,” the president said, looking ahead to the upcoming global climate change conference in Paris at the end of November. He underscored to his audience that clean energy offers great potential for future growth. “An ambitious agreement in Paris will prompt investors to invest in clean energy technologies because they will understand that the world is committed to a lowcarbon future,” he said. “That’s a signal to the private sector to go all-in on renewable energy technologies. If we can get an agreement done, it could drive new jobs and new opportunities.” Directly following Obama, Chinese President Xi Jinping addressed the CEO meeting. He also avoided the South China Sea issue and instead delivered a policy platform highlighting China’s growing economic clout in the region as it becomes an economic counterweight to the United States. Nor did Xi mention the U.S.led Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement by name, but he cited “various new regional free trade arrangements popping up,” and warned that “there have been worries about the potential of fragmentation in this regard.” The 12-nation pact excludes China. Xi instead promoted China’s ambitious “One Road, One Belt” economic integration initiative and the new China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, which will challenge the World Bank and other international financial institutions in financing regional infrastructure projects. The Obama administration opposes that venture, fearing Chinese economic domination in Asia. Although the APEC summit is focusing on economic issues, the South China Sea dispute continued to lurk in the background. “The Chinese have said they
felt the APEC forum was not an appropriate forum to discuss the South China Sea,” said Curtis Chin, former U.S. ambassador to the Asian Development Bank and current Asia Fellow at the Milken Institute. “I argue to the contrary, that the economic and the political cannot be separated. “At the heart of trade and economic growth is freedom of navigation. How do you have trade when you can’t sail through wa-

IN BRIEF DEFENSE SECRETARY: REFORM MILITARY PERSONNEL SYSTEM
Defense Secretary Ash Carter on Wednesday unveiled reforms to how the Pentagon recruits and retains the personnel he believes it must have to fight future wars. Carter called the U.S. military the best the world has ever seen. But it won’t maintain that edge if it does not attract top talent through what he calls the “Force of the Future.” “We live in a changing and competitive world, and we have to earn that excellence again and again,” Carter said in a speech delivered at George Washington University. “Because our force of the future has to be just as great, if not even better, than our outstanding force of today. Our security depends on it.” The overhauls include expanding mid-career breaks for troops to start families or return to school, adopting 401(k)-style pension benefits for all troops
and focusing on the diversity of the armed forces. Most of the changes will be rolled out over the next year, and some will require congressional approval. — Tom Vanden Brook

This one, named LkCa 15 b, has been caught gobbling dust and super-heated gas, a meal that will help it bulk up. Pictures of the new baby show that it’s reddish in color. LkCa 15 b and its star lie about 470 light-years from our own solar system in the constellation Taurus. Previous research suggested there might be an embryonic world in this particular spot in the galaxy.

MONEYLINE MADOFF VICTIMS SET TO RECEIVE $1.18B DISTRIBUTION A federal bankruptcy court on Wednesday approved plans to distribute $1.18 billion to investors burned by Bernard Madoff’s Ponzi scheme. The distribution, the sixth stemming from the estimated $20 billion fraud, is expected to start before the end of December. Eventually, former customers who invested up to $1,161,000 will “be made completely whole,” and those who invested more will get back 61 cents for each $1, Stephen Harbeck, CEO of the Securities Investor Protection Corp., said in October. HOUSING STARTS SINK 11% IN OCTOBER Apartment construction plunged sharply in October, as the pace of homebuilding slipped amid a broader cooling of the real estate market. Housing starts — both houses and apartments— fell last month 11% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.06 million homes, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. Single-family construction declined 2.4%. Last month’s drop mostly stemmed from a 25.5% slide in the volatile multifamily category, which includes apartments, a sector that had posted a sharp increase in September.

Square’s IPO price doesn’t live up to hype Will sell shares at $9 per share, instead of the $11-$13 predicted Jon Swartz @jswartz USA TODAY
SAN FRANCISCO Pricing of Square’s highly anticipated initial public offering landed with a thud late Wednesday. The mobile payments-processing company plans to sell shares at $9 per share, shy of the $11 to $13 it had previously predicted in a regulatory filing, according to news reports. Previously, it said it would sell 27 million shares. With 323 million shares to be outstanding after the IPO, the offering values the San Franciscobased company at $2.9 billion — half the most recent valuation of $6 billion by private investors. A representative for Square did not immediately respond for comment. Square plans to list on the New
GARRETT HUBBARD FOR USA TODAY
The offering puts Square’s value at $2.9B — far shy of a recent valuation of $6B.

York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol SQ. The IPO is being keenly watched as a harbinger for the fate of unicorns, start-ups valued at more than $1 billion. The disappointing pricing illustrates a tough market for the debut of tech companies, underscoring the chasm between the optimism of private company valuations and a skeptical public market. A scant 14% of IPOs this year have been tech, the industry’s lowest representation in seven years, says Dealogic. The scrutinized IPO has been colored in part by concerns over Square’s revenue growth and Dorsey’s dual role as CEO of both Square and Twitter, which he cofounded. (Twitter set its IPO price in November 2013, with a $14.2 billion valuation.) “Unfortunately, the (IPO) timing is not perfect, given the (recent) sell-off of tech stocks and concern over an IPO bubble,” says Andrew Chanin, CEO of Pu-
refunds, a mobile-payment exchanged-traded fund. Square’s debut on the public market isn’t likely to assuage jittery tech investors, smarting over the wobbly performance of cloud storage company Box. It opened in January at $20.20 after an IPO price of $14 but is currently trading in the $12 to $13 range. Meanwhile, Square faces a spectrum of competitors large (PayPal, First Data) and small (Poynt, Vantive). Square Register, its point-ofsale app and hardware stand, outpaces its primary rival PayPal with daily active Android users in the U.S., but it is dwarfed by PayPal’s installed base of 8.3 million in the U.S., compared to 450,000, according to WeFi, a mobile app data analytics company. More than 2 million merchants used Square over the last year to process $32.4 billion in total payments volume, the company says. Square has delved into a cash advance program and other areas servicing small businesses.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY
It’s the pace of interest rate hikes that investors should be focusing on, not the timing of the first increase in nearly a decade. And the pace of the hike cycle will be executed “gradually.” That was the message the U.S. central bank sent to Wall Streeton Wednesday in the release of the minutes of its October policy meeting. In the minutes, the Fed said it “well may be appropriate” to start to raise interest rates — the federal funds rate currently is pegged at a historic low of around 0% — and boost rates up back to more normal levels. Rates are still at emergency low levels in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis as the Fed has seen the need to keep borrowing rates low to stim-

Analysts bullish on retailer’s future direction
Q: Is it finally time to buy Target? Matt Krantz
mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY
A: Long-term investors know the turnaround at Target is going to take time. The need for patience was highlighted by the retailer’s most recent quarterly results. Target’s turnaround is certainly on track. Sales at stores open at least a year rose 1.9% during the quarter, which is at the top end of the 1% to 2% range management told investors to expect. Sales at stores open at least a year at Target also topped larger rival Walmart’s 1.5% samestore growth. The retailer also is making progress on the profit front. Target reported an adjusted quarterly profit of 86 cents a share during the third quarter, which was up 59% from the same period a year ago. But despite all this seemingly good news, shares of Target fell 4% to $69.78 Wednesday as Wall Street reacted to the news. Target investors may have simply gotten ahead of themselves. Target’s profit in the most recent quarter merely matched expectations, a bit of a letdown after it beat targets in the previous four quarters. Analysts are bullish on the stock and say it should be worth $83.50 a share in 18 months. But analysts also recognize it’s going to take time and specialized retailers and online rivals are still a threat. The stock is rated a “hold,” on average, by analysts.
New online tool does Social Security benefit math for you Jiayue Huang USA TODAY
When to claim your Social Security benefit can be a tough question to answer, but there’s a new online tool to help you do the math. The general rule of thumb is the later you claim, the better because your check will be bigger. But just how much bigger? The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s new Planning for Retirement tool can show you, in just a couple of clicks. “To a consumer, when to start

For most, retirement age is 66 or 67.
claiming Social Security payments is one of the key decisions they can make about their retirement,” said Richard Cordray, director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
Because claiming your benefit is a “one-time choice,” Cordray said, “it is imperative that consumers can properly weigh their options.” To use the tool, you simply plug in your birthday and highest annual work income to see your estimated benefit for each age, from 62 to 70. Click on the age you think you’d like to retire, and a new benefit amount pops up to show how your choice affects your check. You can also get more specific and detailed suggestions by answering questions about your marital status and financial particulars.
“We want consumers to use our tool to know and understand what it means to claim at their full retirement age vs. several years before and several years after,” Cordray said. For most people currently in the workforce, full retirement age is 66 or 67, depending on when you were born. However, you can get your Social Security retirement benefits as early as 62 years old. But there is a tradeoff, because you might see a 25% reduction in your benefit if you claim it before reaching full retirement age. Cordray said consumers might
find it worthwhile to stay in the workforce a few years longer, which lets their Social Security benefits grow and gives them more time to save for retirement. Jean Setzfand, senior vice president of AARP, likes the new tool. “It’s nice to see the monthly, annual and sum of all benefits at different ages so that people can see the benefits they’re likely to earn or have earned after a life of work.” In addition, Setzfand points out that AARP also has a suite of resources, including a Social Security benefits calculator, retirement calculator and 401(k) tools.

STRENGTH TO ‘JESSICA JONES’
Actress packs attitude and heart into her Netflix heroine
JESSICA JONES NETFLIX, FRIDAY
SAMIR HUSSEIN, WIREIMAGE
IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?
Brian Truitt @briantruitt USA TODAY
The chance to showcase her dry wit, sassy attitude and hint of darkness was enough to get Krysten Ritter to sign up for Netflix’s new Marvel series, Jessica Jones. Getting to throw dudes across a bar and rough up anyone who trifles with her? Well, that’s just icing on the superhero cake. Ritter, a veteran of both comedy (Don’t Trust the B - - - - in Apartment 23) and drama (Breaking Bad), brings all her skills to bear as the title private eye. “It’s just a really rare thing to come along, a character that’s so strong and complex, so threedimensional, so well-developed,” Ritter says. “Oftentimes the female roles aren’t as good as the boys’, and this is really turning that idea on its ear.” Jones, based on the Alias comics character, isn’t trying to be a
good guy — or girl. She used super-strength and insane jumping skills to be a hero in New York City, but it didn’t go so well. So now she works as a PI to make ends meet and do the right thing, even without the colorful costume. Most important to Ritter was blending surliness with vulnerability caused by Kilgrave (David Tennant), a mind-controlling menace. “Because of her past, she really wants nothing to do with” being a hero, Ritter says. “She’s not interested in having really anyone in her life. She’s had bad things happen to her, and to other people because of her.” But “I feel like this is a redemption story of rising to the occasion. At her core, she is a good person.” Ritter is a perfect choice for Jessica and “the heart of the show,” Tennant says. “She’s got the depth and the conflict. She also looks great, that’s part of it, but she just is that character and embodies it.”
PHOTOS BY MYLES ARONOWITZ, NETFLIX
Executive producer Melissa Rosenberg admires Ritter’s agility. “She can go to those dramatically emotional depths and she can deliver a dry line, and sometimes she does that within a split second.” She also threw herself into the action, “crushing the gym 90 minutes a day to be able to endure the stunts and also the schedule to make myself strong,” she says. So would Jessica choose an acerbic comment or a powerful punch as a weapon? “That’s the best part,” she says excitedly. “She doesn’t have to pick — she can do them both!”

Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter, right, with Colby Minifie) tried the whole hero deal, but it didn’t work out for here. So now she’s on her own as a PI.
Games are over, REVIEW and Katniss EverBRIAN deen really means TRUITT business now. After surviving two battle-to-thedeath films and one movie mostly about making propaganda material, Jennifer Lawrence’s ace archer is in for one more fight for her life in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2, the explosively uneven finale to the successful movie franchise. It has the best action sequences of all four chapters, though it’s bogged down by a meandering plot and oldfashioned overacting. The grand finale picks up immediately from the first Mockingjay, though that’s a mistake: Katniss and the rebels of District 13 have just rescued Peeta (Josh Hutcherson), a District 12 Hunger Games victor, though he has been brainwashed into thinking Katniss is a total monster. A good 30 minutes is just continuing the story of the last movie until the plan against the Capitol of Panem — think the one percent crossed with the Star Wars Empire and the most avant-garde day of New York Fashion Week — starts to come together.
MOCKINGJAY — PART 2
eegE
STARS Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth DIRECTOR Francis Lawrence RATING PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action RUNNING TIME 2 hours, 16 minutes Opens Friday nationwide
MURRAY CLOSE, LIONSGATE
In The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) picks up where she left off in Part 1. Katniss, Peeta and rebel soldier Gale (Liam Hemsworth, in the three-spot of the love triangle) are in an all-star unit to be filmed to keep up morale back home, though Katniss has a different plan: Assassinate evil President Snow (Donald Sutherland). The cast is huge, which means a lot of drama to go around. Seeing the late Philip Seymour Hoffman one more time as rebel commander Plutarch Heavensbee is bittersweet. Gwendoline Christie has a blink-and-you’llmiss it role as District 2 honcho Commander Lyme. But best of
all, Jena Malone has another chance to bring slightly mad Johanna Mason to bonkers life. Juggling all those characters tends to slow down the whole show. It’s only in a few of the more exceptional set pieces — where Katniss and crew have to survive a tidal wave of deadly oil, an underground attack by blind humanoid beasties and bombs away on a crowd of people in the Capitol — where Mockingjay kicks into a nice gear. After the previous movie had her heroine in PTSD mode, Lawrence gets to stretch her acting
chops in the Hunger Games climax. The Katniss/Peeta/Gale dynamic finally works itself out, and cleverly in one sequence where the two dudes devise a bro code. But nobody is helped by Danny Strong and Peter Craig’s script, which offers clunky arena metaphors and corny dialogue like “It’s war, Katniss. War isn’t always personal.” There’s something to be said about the financial boon of a pair of Mockingjay films that clock in at more than four hours together, though from a filmmaking standpoint, there’s a single, really good 2½-hour movie in there. What also doesn’t help is trying to have more endings than The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King — four aren’t needed when just one good one will do. It’s not a perfect exit for Katniss, but it’s one where she gets to put her bow, arrow and big heart to good use.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
Big in Texas
The mood in the locker room the day after Kansas University’s 79-73 Champions Classic loss to Michigan State apparently was nothing like a year ago when the shell-shocked Jayhawks tried to make sense of a 32-point loss to Kentucky in the same event. “Obviously it’s a bottomline business, wins and losses, but we didn’t play poorly last night,” KU coach Bill Self said Wednesday on his Hawk Talk radio show. “We controlled the game for 33 minutes. We didn’t play well the last seven at all.

Oakland, Calif. — They are better than they’ve been for years, you can see it almost every week of Raiders football. It’s there. It’s tangible. It isn’t fake. They’re not good enough, though. Not yet, not now, and definitely not on Sunday, when the Raiders faced another good NFL team and the Raiders lost to another good NFL team. You can boil down the Raiders’ 30-14 loss to Minnesota at the Coliseum about a thousand different ways, and I’m sure everybody associated with the franchise will do exactly that. You can talk about the gutpunch kickoff return touchdown the Raiders allowed at the end of the first half, right after they’d rallied back to take the lead. You can point to the slow start, to the penalties, to quarterback Derek Carr’s first wobbly game in more than a month, or to Vikings tailback Adrian Peterson splicing through the Raiders defense at several key moments. It’s all of those things, it’s everything, and this is the fifth time in nine games that it has happened. Simple summary: The Raiders are 4-5 and have beaten every bad team on their schedule so far. Also, they have lost to every good team they’ve played. The Raiders aren’t bad. Which is no small accomplishment given the circumstances of the last decade or so. But they aren’t yet good — they make just the wrong mistakes at just the wrong time against the teams that can take advantage of every single one, such as Cordarrelle Patterson’s 93-yard return off a Sebastian Janikowski squib kick Sunday. Which might get pretty frustrating for the locker room and coaching staff, eventually. But right now, everybody involved is determined to keep things in the proper perspective. “We’re still even-keel,” left tackle Donald Penn said Sunday. “We lost a game. We’re not about to go crazy about it. We lost a game. I’m upset. Yes I’m very upset. But it’s one game.” Here’s who the Raiders have defeated this season: the Ravens (currently 2-7), the Browns (2-8), the Chargers (2-7) and the Jets (5-4, the only current winning team the Raiders have beaten). Here’s who the Raiders have lost to this season: the Vikings (now 7-2), the Bengals (8-0), the Broncos (7-2), the Steelers (6-4) and the Bears (4-5), the only current team with a losing record to have beaten the Raiders. Here’s who the Raiders have coming up: road games against Detroit (currently 2-7) and Tennessee (also 2-7), so you know where this might be headed. There is every reason to think that this team is probably destined for 8-8 … or 9-7 if the Raiders can pick off one of their tougher opponents. Again, that’s obviously a strong step forward from last season’s 3-13 debacle, and that’s enough for this locker room to believe it can take one more big step soon. Until then, the Raiders are exactly what their record says they are, 4-5, intriguing in spots, predictable most of the time, and just not good enough. Yet.

Arrieta, Keuchel Cy Young winners New York — Jake Arrieta of the Chicago Cubs aced out Dodgers standouts Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw for the NL Cy Young Award, while Houston lefty Dallas Keuchel won the AL honor Wednesday. In what was expected to be a tighter threeperson race, Arrieta received 17 first-place votes for 169 points from members of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. Greinke drew 10 first-place votes and had 147 points. Kershaw had the other three firsts and 101 points. Arrieta led the majors in wins, going 22-6. He went 11-0 in his last 12 starts, pushing the Cubs into the playoffs for the first time since 2008. Keuchel The 29-year-old righty had a 1.77 ERA, struck out 236 and pitched a no-hitter. Arrieta was the first Cubs pitcher to win the honor since Greg Maddux in 1992. The Cubs won a major postseason award for the third straight day. Kris Bryant was the NL Rookie of the Year and Joe Maddon was the NL Manager of the Year. The MVP awards will be announced Thursday. Greinke posted a 1.66 ERA that was the lowest in the majors since Maddux in 1995. Greinke went 19-3, fanned 200 and had a scoreless streak of 45 2/3 innings. Kershaw had won three of the previous four NL Cy Youngs. He struck out 301, the most in the majors since 2002, and went 16-7 with a 2.13 ERA for the NL West champions. Keuchel received 22 first-place votes for 186 points. David Price drew eight first-place votes and 143 points for his split season with Detroit and Toronto, and Oakland’s Sonny Gray finished third. Keuchel led the AL in wins, going 20-8 and helping Houston reach the playoffs for the first time since 2005. The bearded 27-year-old with a dominant sinker and sharp slider had a 2.48 ERA and 216 strikeouts. Price went 18-5 with a 2.45 ERA and 225 strikeouts. Traded from Detroit to Toronto in

late July, he was a key reason the Blue Jays made their first playoff appearance since 1993. Keuchel became the first Houston pitcher to win the Cy Young since Roger Clemens in 2004, and the first do it since the Astros joined the AL.

McHale fired by Rockets Houston — Six months ago, Kevin McHale coached the Houston Rockets to the Western Conference finals for the first time in 18 years. There are high expectations for the team again this season behind James Harden and Dwight Howard, but McHale won’t be around to see where the Rockets end up: Houston fired McHale on Wednesday with the team off to a puzzling 4-7 start. “The team was not responding to Kevin McHale and we had to make the tough call,” general manager Daryl Morey said a few hours before the Rockets took a four-game skid into their game against Portland. “And we had to make it soon. There is not time in the tough Western Conference to wait for a turnaround.” Before the game, several players mentioned guilt and said they felt partially to blame. “I didn’t see it coming, I’m not going to lie,” forward Corey Brewer said. “We are responsible. The coach can’t make us play hard. That’s up to us. This has got to be a wake-up call. We’ve got to get better. Now, it’s up to us to start winning.” Three of Houston’s losses were by 20 points and two others were by 12 or more points. Morey was asked what indications he saw that the team wasn’t responding to McHale. “I think you just watch our team play and it’s not that difficult (to see),” Morey said. “You’re a team coming off a Western Conference final run and you’re a team with mostly the same group, and it was not working. We will change until it’s working. We win at the Rockets. (Owner Leslie Alexander) does not accept losing. I do not accept losing. No one accepts losing.” Assistant J. B. Bickerstaff took over as interim head coach.

of points. We did a pretty good job in stretches defensively and very poor job in stretches.” KU’s shooting both inside and out also was a concern. “I could be pretty negative if I wanted to be about the game, but after watching the tape, good gosh we got the ball to two-feet a lot,” Self said. “We made our free throws but seemed we missed every crucial bunny. I counted 14 missed layups that were legit, not easy shots, but ones you should make 11 or 12 of ’em. “We put ourselves in a situation they scored nine straight points off threes off offensive rebounds or screwups, unfortunate plays which took it from 11 down to a very manageable number (for MSU). We were close to cracking it but just didn’t get it done.” KU hit three of 15 threes and 34.8 percent overall. MSU hit 46.7 percent; 53.3 the final half in scoring 44 points. “Gosh I wish we could have stepped up and made some shots,” Self said, lauding Wayne Selden Jr. for drilling a three that gave KU a one-point lead with 1:52 left. “We were three of 15 from three but took three the last (meaningless) possession, so we got off 12 threes. They did a good job on that (defending KU). We got the ball where we wanted to go a lot of times, then you miss a couple, you don’t play as aggressive and end up settling. We did that too much down the stretch. “In a lot of ways we didn’t play well at all. We shot a bad percentage, but led by 11 (actually 13). You can’t do that if you are not playing tough. But we didn’t finish the game playing
tough in my opinion at all and that was the difference in the game.” Of Selden who had 12 points off 3-of-12 shooting, Self said: “Wayne I think is the key to our team as much as anybody else because we saw what he could do this summer in Korea at how great he was. He doesn’t have to play to that level every night. We know that’s not realistic because he was so good over there (in World Games). More consistently toward that level would elevate our team so much.” KU will next meet Chaminade at 8 p.m., Lawrence time, Monday in Hawaii. It’s a firstround Maui Invitational game. The Jayhawks will leave for Maui on Friday. l Monk picks Kentucky: Malik Monk, a 6-4 senior shooting guard from Bentonville (Arkansas) High, who is ranked No. 6 nationally by Rivals.com, on Wednesday signed a letter-of-intent with Kentucky. Monk chose the Wildcats over Arkansas, KU and others. Kentucky also has signed No. 5-rated point guard De’Aaron Fox, No. 7-rated forward Bam Adebayo, No. 17-rated forward Wenyen Gabriel and No. 26 power forward Sacha KilleyaJones. Some now consider KU the frontrunner for No. 20-rated Jarrett Allen, 6-9 senior forward from St. Stephens Episcopal School in Austin, Texas. He also has Kentucky, Texas, Houston and Notre Dame on his list. KU, Duke and others are contending for No. 16 Marques Bolden, a 6-10 senior from DeSoto (Texas) High, who also likes Alabama. KU also is in the hunt for No. 1-rated Josh Jackson, a 6-7 guard from Prolific Prep High in Napa, California.

No. 1 Tar Heels turn back Wofford The Associated Press
Top 25 Men No. 1 North Carolina 78, Wofford 58 Chapel Hill, N.C. — Brice Johnson had 16 points and 14 rebounds, and No. 1 North Carolina beat Wofford on Wednesday night in the CBE Hall of Fame Classic. Kennedy Meeks and Joel Berry II added 16 apiece for the Tar Heels (3-0). They shot 52.5 percent, outscored Wofford 50-18 in the paint and outrebounded the pesky Terriers 42-24 but couldn’t pull away until late. Jaylen Allen scored 15 points for the Terriers (02). They hit nine 3-pointers and twice fell behind by double figures before rallying to make it a onepossession game. They threatened to do it again when Allen’s 3 made it 58-50 with 9 minutes left.

the stadium for a game last Friday for our first taste of big-time Texas high school football. Carroll seeks its sixth state title in 14 years. Friday’s visitors, the Cedar Hill High Longhorns, former Kansas University receiver Dezmon Briscoe’s alma mater, came into the game as two-time defending state champions. Unbridled passion flowed freely on both sides of the stadium, but not every person in attendance could show an allegiance. One middleaged man sporting a shaved head triggered wide grins from multiple spectators on both sides of the stadium. Coaches, coaches’ fathers, referees and former players on hand to watch the big game spotted Kenny Perry, stopped what they were doing and rushed up to pin bear hugs on him. Perry, KU’s cornerbacks coach and co-defensive coordinator, was at the game to evaluate prospects and more to the point, to be seen at the game by prospects. During warmups, the fathers of both head coaches, Carroll’s Hal Wasson and Cedar Hill’s Joey McGuire, both lost that pre-game nervous look at the sight of Perry and spent time catching up with him. “Kansas could not have picked two better men to recruit the state of Texas than David Beaty and Kenny Perry,” George McGuire said from under the cowboy hat he wears only during playoff games. “Kenny and Joey are like brothers.” Joey McGuire turned down an offer to become part of University of Texas football coach Charlie Strong’s staff to stay at Cedar Hill. A coach doesn’t do that unless he cares deeply about helping his players, most of whom stay in touch with him regularly long after they have graduated high school. If McGuire’s not comfortable with a college coach, he’ll let his players and their parents know. Perry brings the endorsement of McGuire, Wasson and countless other Texas high school coaches into living rooms with him. That’s huge. College coaches are not allowed to discuss specific recruits with the media, but a check of Rivals.com records reveals that two of the three players who stood out the loudest in Southlake Carroll’s 37-33 survival last Friday list Kansas

THE CEDAR HILL FOOTBALL TEAM GETS SET TO TAKE THE FIELD Friday night in Southlake, Texas. As has been the case for the past 10 years on the road, when the players make their way out of the locker room, they do so to the sound of an activated chainsaw held by George McGuire. He fired it up for the first time because the Longhorns were playing at Lewisville Hebron. “Their stadium was The Woodshed,” George said. “You come to their stadium, they was going to take you to The Woodshed. We took the saw over there, beat them three times in a row, twice at their stadium. We sawed The Woodshed down. Ever since then, we’ve taken the saw.” George even took it to Cowboys Stadium, where he was told he could not turn it on. He must not have heard that instruction. He activated it, same as always, and the gas fumes triggered a fire alarm. “There was nobody around who knew how Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo to shut it off,” he rememSOUTHLAKE CARROLL HIGH SCHOOL ASSISTANT COACH Mark Humble gives his team some advice Friday night in Southlake, bered with laughing eyes.
