THE THREE FINALISTS FOR LAWRENCE CITY MANAGER, FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: Rod Bremby, Cheryl Harrison-Lee and Tom Markus. By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

he three finalists in the running to be Lawrence’s next city manager have, together, accumulated more than 100 years working in municipal and state government. That experience has been a priority to city commissioners when selecting candidates to fill the position, which Mayor Mike Amyx has described simply as “a tough job.” The city manager’s responsibilities include overseeing city

Perspectives vary regarding the differences in student populations and academic performance at Lawrence and Free State high schools, but there is one concern district administrators, teachers and students seem to share. “I think both buildings have kids that come to school who might have slept in their car, might not have had breakfast and might not know SCHOOLS where the next meal is coming from,” said Sam Rabiola, who has taught at both high schools. “If they have those larger needs, they may not be focused on what I’m doing in class.” Lawrence schools Superintendent Rick Doll told the Journal-World earlier this month that district administrators know poverty predicts achievement, and the district is working at making that not predictable. But which supportive programs or efforts to expand or add is a more complex question.

Differences in achievement For several years, one of the Lawrence school district’s three focal points has been equity, calling more attention to disparities among schools and subgroups of students. The school board sets annual equity and achievement goals toward the beginning of each school year. One goal this year is making sure curriculum and instruction function “to raise the achievement of all students.” Lawrence high school students’ graduation rates, standardized test results and ACT scores exceed state and national averages; however, numbers show a persistent achievement gap between the two high schools. Though Lawrence High approaches Free State’s numbers, differences in the percentage of students not meeting standards in reading (10 percent versus 3 percent), students enrolled in advanced classes (36 percent versus 46 percent) and seniors taking the ACT (59 percent versus 76 percent) stand out. District administrators, teachers and students seem to agree the primary factor in these disparities is socioeconomic status. Please see GAP, page 4A

BRIEFLY 2016 Teacher of the Year named Wichita (ap) — A high school mathematics teacher from Dodge City is the 2016 Kansas Teacher of the Year. Justin Coffey’s selection was announced by Kansas Commissioner of Education Randy Watson during a ceremony Saturday night in Wichita. He received $4,000, free enrollment to several Kansas universities for life and other prizes. Coffey was chosen from a pool of eight finalists, including Lucinda Crenshaw, a science teacher at West Middle School in Lawrence. Coffey received a business administration degree from the University of Wyoming and a transition to teaching certification in 2011 from Fort Hays State University. He is currently pursuing a master’s degree in education. He is part of his school’s leadership team, the moderator of a monthly Twitter chat for educators and the co-founder of an annual Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics camp. He’s also the head wrestling coach at Dodge City Middle School.

Markus was named as Iowa City’s city manager after the previous city manager was fired for an undisclosed reason. In a memo in which he told Iowa City’s department heads and the city council that he was a finalist for the Lawrence position, Markus said he is interested in the “challenges and opportunities” he would face in a larger jurisdiction. Markus, 62, has worked in city government since 1973, when he started as an intern for the city of Waseca, Minn. He took the Iowa City position in 2010. In Iowa City, Markus said he’s been focused on several areas, including affordable housing, sustainability issues and maintaining financial stability in the wake of statewide financial cuts. One of his first tasks was creating a succession plan for city leaders. Now that the Iowa City management staff is ready to move to the next level in their careers, he said, “I feel that I can pursue other career opportunities.” Markus also noted KU’s School of Public Affairs and Administration, saying he’d like to enhance the relationship between it and the city. “I enjoy working with the next generation of city staff leaders by mentoring and coaching them to move to the next step in their careers,” Markus said.

And it gives us more contacts.” In addition to his work with local groups and organizations, Bates moves frequently from home to home helping those in the agriculture industry maximize their potential or solve any problems that arise, Pendleton said. Bates, a Southeast Kansas native, said his interest in nature goes back as far as he can remember. “I’ve always appreciated plants,” he said. “I’ve always had a passion for gardening.” An avid golfer, Bates originally attended Kansas State University to study golf course management within the horticulture department, but a few mentors along the way began to encourage him down a different path. One of the more influential people in his college career was his academic adviser, the

I just planted a little hobby vineyard. I’m particularly passionate about grapes.” Greg Shipe, of Davenport Orchards & Winery, said Bates has taken a special interest in area vineyards and wineries. Every now and then, Bates will show up at the orchard with a group of people and teach them about the dangers of spray drift, where pesticides can become airborne and

Wichita (ap) — A study by a nonprofit health advocacy group says youth drug overdose rates are up in Kansas, but that they remain lower than the national rate. The study released Thursday by Trust for America’s Health, a nonprofit health advocacy group, shows that Kansas’ overall drug overdose death rate for 12to 25-year-olds was 5.9 deaths for every 100,000 youths. That compares to

7.3 deaths nationally for every 100,000 youths, The Wichita Eagle reported.

“I think any teacher who has ever spent time in a classroom knows that that 50 minutes, that hour, that hour and a half you have with a student is a small portion of that student’s day,” said Michael Carriger, English department chairman at Lawrence High. “For learning to occur, sometimes with that student you’re battling through a number of walls that have been erected around that student. I have found one of the greatest to be social class, economic stability.” This school year, 43 percent of students at Lawrence High are enrolled in the free and reduced-priced lunch program, compared with 31 percent at Free State. Of those students, about 550 Lawrence High students meet the lower-income guidelines that qualify them for free lunch, compared with about 400 at Free State. Carriger, who has taught both on-level and advanced English at Lawrence High, said a student’s socioeconomic status is not insurmountable. “For every story where you say that was probably the determining factor for that student’s lack of success, you could also find a story where a student countered it somehow,” he said.

Preconceptions about each school The districtwide average of students enrolled in the free and reduced-priced lunch program is 39 percent,

making Free State’s rate of 31 percent below that average and Lawrence High’s rate of 43 percent slightly above. But students say the numbers get overgeneralized, sometimes accompanying false notions that Free State is “better.” “Because of the locations of the two schools and the socioeconomic differences between some of the people that go to the schools, I think that there might be some conceptions based off of that,” said Zia Kelly, a senior at Lawrence High. Trenna Soderling, a senior at Free State, said Free State has a reputation of having higherincome students and Lawrence High is known for its diversity, but most students don’t take those preconceived notions seriously. “You have both ends of the scale at both schools, I think,” she said. Kelly said though the differences in socioeconomic status shouldn’t be overgeneralized, they do come into play. It’s important for the district to research the topic to provide the resources that are most effective in helping students, she said. “I don’t think it needs to come down to redistricting or where the schools are, or what school they go to,” Kelly said. “I think that it’s a matter of providing every kid who could need

extra help help.”

that

Enabling success of all students Kelly said extra help for students could mean that support programming at the schools differs in expansiveness or function. For instance, Lawrence High could get more counselors or additional funding for AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination), a program that offers tutoring and academic support for students who want to pursue advanced classes and college. “I don’t think it’s about which school gets more, it’s about making sure that each student has the same chance to succeed,” Kelly said. As far as teaching staff, Kelly thinks staffing should be adjusted where it counts, such as reducing class sizes for core subjects, so that a wider swath of the student body gets one-onone interaction with the teacher. In other words, “devoting more staff to places where we know those students are,” she said. Rabiola, who currently teaches English at Free State, said that since he began teaching, he has seen the funding formula change several times and that in his nearly 30-year career he has seen his teacher load increase from about 120 to 143 students.

“That doesn’t sound like that many more kids, but that’s essentially another class of students,” he said. Expanding AVID, which is now in its third year, is one potential strategy, Doll has previously said. The program currently serves students in eighth through 12th grades, and the district is considering expanding the program to include more students overall, as well as adding sixth and seventh grades. Carriger said he thinks Lawrence High is finding some early success with AVID. “I think (students have) found a shared family system in the building that has helped them understand the rigors of the advanced option,” he said. For non-collegebound students, Carriger noted, the programs available to students who would like to pursue careers or other trades after high school are solid. This is the first school year for the Lawrence College and Career Center. Courses at the LCCC are available to high school juniors and seniors at Lawrence High, Free State and the Lawrence Virtual School in seven areas, such as health care, computers and manufacturing.

Looking forward Behind these conversations is also the knowledge that additional programing and institutional support require resources. Rabiola said expanding AVID, adding counselors and increasing staffing to decrease class sizes in core subjects would all be beneficial. But unfortunately, he explained, funding limits the options. “It’s not that we’ve got

L awrence J ournal -W orld more funding, so let’s do all three,” he said. “It’s almost always, ‘Is it this or is it that,’ and honestly it takes a multipronged approach.” In March, the Kansas Legislature repealed the school finance system in place since 1992 and replaced it with block grants for the next two years, during which time legislators will put together a new school funding formula. The block grants provide essentially flat funding to schools in the meantime. The old funding formula provided “equalization aid” to offset lower collections from property taxes and weightings that provided more funding for subgroups of disadvantaged students. Another important element in student success is the relationship between teachers and students, Carriger said. “We have this population we desperately want to reach,” he said. “We know relationships are important. This faculty really tries to nurture, foster good relationships in the classroom. I think it goes a long way.” Including multiple aspects — programs, class sizes, support staff and enabling more oneon-one interaction — is necessary for effective student support and requires a complex funding formula, according to Rabiola. “It has to be a nuanced, multifaceted approach to try to deal with this,” he said, “because we don’t have a one-size-fits-all kid that comes into the building and there is a variety of things to make each kid successful.”

Chicken chain slated for west Lawrence

outh Lawrence diners aren’t the only ones who will get to have all the fried chicken fun in this town. While there is a host of new chicken restaurants coming to south Iowa Street, plans have been filed for a new fast-food chicken restaurant on west Sixth Street as well. If you remember, I told you a few weeks ago that I had heard speculation a fried chicken restaurant was going into the Bauer Farm development near Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive. Well, plans for a new restaurant have been filed at City Hall, and a representative of the Bauer Farm development has confirmed to me that it is a chicken restaurant. The group, however, hasn’t yet been authorized to release the name of the new restaurant. I know for many of you the news causes you to speculate it may be the Church’s Chicken chain. Church’s probably

is the largest chain that doesn’t have a presence in Lawrence. As you may recall, we’ve previously reported that Popeye’s has filed plans to build a restaurant near 26th and Iowa streets in the shopping center that houses First Watch. A source involved in the local development industry has confirmed that Church’s definitely has been looking for locations in Lawrence. But the source also told me that Popeye’s has been looking for a second location in Lawrence. The project also still

needs to win a key approval from City Hall. When the local group began developing the Bauer Farm project it agreed to a City Hall restriction on the number of drive-thru restaurants that would be located in the development. The development group — which is led by Lawrence businessmen Doug Compton and Mike Treanor — is seeking an increase in that drive-thru cap in order to accommodate this new restaurant. The group wants the cap raised to eight drive-thrus for the development, up from six. As for the location of the proposed restaurant, it is slated for the vacant lot just east of the Burger King restaurant. l Perhaps some of you are having a hard time keeping up with all the chicken news in Lawrence. A quick recap includes: the Popeye’s at 26th and Iowa; a new Raising Cane’s chicken finger restaurant slated for the spot in front of Bigg’s

BBQ near 25th and Iowa streets; and, of course, Buffalo Wild Wings, which is already open at 27th and Iowa streets. Some of you may remember, though, that I’ve occasionally mentioned that a business called WingStop is coming to the Louisiana Purchase shopping center at 23rd and Louisiana streets. That has been a slow-moving project, though. Well, it is slow-moving no more. Signs recently have been posted that say the restaurant will be open by December. Construction work is underway to remodel the space. The restaurant is going into the space just north of the Mr. Goodcents location. The last I knew, former KU basketball star Keith Langford and his family are the owners of the new franchise. — This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which appears each weekday on LJWorld.com.

Push-to-connect pipe fittings make plumbing projects a snap

lumbing repairs or new water line installations are a snap with push-toconnect fittings. These innovative brass fittings can easily connect copper, CPVC, PEX and even polybutylene pipe and tubing. Sharkbite and Tectite are the two main brands of push-toconnect fittings. Follow these simple steps for an easy solution to your next plumbing project: Step 1: Choose pushto-connect fittings when installing CPVC, PEX or hard drawn copper. Do not use push-to-connect fittings with soft or chrome-plated copper. Step 2: For repairs to polybutylene tubing, often referred to as Qest tubing and found commonly in mobile homes, choose a push-to-connect fitting that is labeled for “PB” tubing. These fittings will have a gray polybutylene collar on one end. Use the fitting to transition from polybutylene to copper,

Linda Cottin CPVC or PEX tubing. Step 3: Push-to-connect PEX tubing applications require a tube liner insert to assure the tubing does not collapse inside the fitting. Sharkbite fittings come with tube liners already inserted in each end of the fittings. Depending on local codes, Sharkbite brand tube liners can be left in place even when using copper or CPVC tubing. Step 4: Select the right fittings and tubing for the job. Make sure the fittings and tubing are clean and in good condition. Watch for nominal vs. outside diameter measurements when selecting fittings. Step 5: Cut the tubing

or pipe to the desired length. Always use a tubing cutter to cut copper pipe and use a PVC shear to cut PEX or CPVC when possible. The ends of each cut pipe need to be square and free of burrs or nicks. Step 6: Mark the proper insert depth with a line around the end of each pipe. Proper insert depths should be noted on the fitting package. A half-inch of tubing should be inserted into the pushto-connect fittings to a depth of 15/16-inch, and 3/4-inch of tubing should be inserted to a depth of 1 to 1/8 of an inch. Step 7: Insert the pipe or tubing into the fitting using a firm grip and a slight twisting motion. Continue to push until the pipe is seated properly inside the fitting and the depth mark on the pipe is aligned with the outer collar of the fitting. — Have a home improvement question for the Fix-It Chick?

Open marriages might not be for everyone Dear Annie: I am six months into a separation from my husband of seven years. (The separation was his idea.) I thought our relationship was solid and was completely blindsided when he told me he felt deserted and lonely. While I am still hoping for reconciliation, I have recently begun seeing someone else. My relationship with Mr. New is of the friends-withbenefits nature. I have no desire to actually date him, and at any rate, he is leaving the area in a couple of months. But for the moment, he’s a fun distraction and a boost to my ego. If I reconcile with my husband, am I required to disclose this liaison? My husband has been seeing other women for some time, although this was not a factor in our separation. We have a

Murphy joins elites of comedy Eddie Murphy joins a comedy pantheon with only 17 other members. “Eddie Murphy: The Mark Twain Prize” (8 p.m., PBS, TV-14, check local listings) salutes a comic talent who dominated television and movies in his time, reaching enormous audiences as himself, under prosthetics and as a CGI cartoon character. He’s the 18th recipient of the award, a regular annual event since 1999 when Richard Pryor was first honored. Murphy has been a dominant force for a solid generation, since joining the cast of “Saturday Night Live” in 1980 when he was only 19 years old. Some feel that Murphy all but saved a series that appeared to be floundering and only sporadically funny after the original cast had departed. Few other performers have appeared in as many highgrossing movies over several decades. Beginning with “Beverly Hills Cop,” Murphy appeared in a string of hits. A subsequent string of bombs (”Harlem Nights,” ‘‘The Adventures of Pluto Nash”) is no secret. In many ways, Murphy pioneered a trend in celebrity reinvention. When audiences tired of his likeness and personality, he buried himself in prosthetics in hits like “The Nutty Professor.” And he joined former “SNL” veteran Mike Myers to appear (or disappear) in the lucrative animated “Shrek” franchise. Not all of his later performances have been so two-dimensional. He won a Golden Globe for a supporting role in “Dreamgirls,” proving that a great talent can continually surprise, and challenge, audiences.

For Monday, Nov. 23: This year you often are stubborn and assertive. This tendency throws people off. Communication could be confusing at times. If you are single, you might have difficulty keeping a relationship in balance. If you are attached, the two of you benefit from recreating a couple of your early dates together. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You’ll be on a roll until noon, when you suddenly might need to switch gears. Tonight: Indulge a loved one. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Make it OK to feel out of sorts in the morning. Not everyone is a morning person. Tonight: Do your thing. Gemini (May 21-June 20) A meeting in the morning might have much more influence on your plans than you realize. Tonight: Be flattered by someone’s attempt to impress you. Cancer (June 21-July 22) You might be forced to give an extra push to a project. Make travel plans soon. Tonight: Hang out with people you enjoy. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You might be too focused for someone’s liking. Allow your creativity to emerge. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Reach out to someone

intensely than the average person. The Xanax calms this and helps them “let go” a bit easier. So one needs to take the parents’ response into consideration — that they were more anxious about the missing pills than they were convinced that their son had stolen them. Accusing him was the easiest answer. I suggest he say, “How can I help you find the Xanax?” — Retired Pharmacist Dear Pharmacist: You make a good point that people with anxiety might worry tremendously about their medication, blaming whoever is handy.

ID concerns International threats place more importance on the need for Americans to have proper, verified identification documents.

roper identification, verified identification, is of growing importance in the United States, whether it applies to refugees coming into this country or those who want to vote in state and national elections. The current debate relative to admitting thousands of refugees from Syria into our country is serious and a matter of great concern for millions of Americans, including a large number of those serving in Congress. The director of the FBI acknowledges there is no way to properly investigate the backgrounds of those that would be admitted into our country, no way to trace backgrounds and activities that are necessary to verify and build a record on each individual. Other federal officers make it clear they believe the terrorist threat in the U.S. is greater today than at any time since the deadly Sept. 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Currently, great concern is focused on refugees from the Middle East, particularly Syria, and whether there are potential terrorists among these groups. It wasn’t long ago tens of thousands of “refugees” from Central and South America were crossing our border without vetting and background checks to verify they were legitimately fleeing a “humanitarian” threat and deserved an open door into the U.S. Is there justification to think there might be terrorists being slipped into our country through the Syrian pipeline but no reason to worry or believe our enemies would try the same method of getting terrorists into the U.S. through Central and South America? Our borders are porous, and it is impossible for federal or state officials to know for certain who may be decent, hard-working, honest individuals seeking a new future or who may be imposters waiting to take action against “hated Americans.” This issue of proper identification and verification raises an associated matter: the ongoing efforts to discredit Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s work to require proper identification and proof of citizenship for those who wish to vote in state elections. Individuals are required to have proper identification to get a hunting license, buy a gun, board a commercial airliner, drive a car or cash a check, but, for some reason, many think it is wrong to require proper ID to vote. Kobach’s manner infuriates some, and others don’t like him because he is a conservative Republican. Others think he is trying to disenfranchise certain segments of our society or that he is overplaying his role as secretary of state and engaging in political showboating. That impression may be a correct or a slanted appraisal, but proper identification is going to become a matter of increasing importance and concern in this country. Already, identity theft is a growing danger, making Americans much more aware of the importance of protecting their identities. Proper identification is not unreasonable, whether it applies to those entering our country or those wishing to vote in local, state and national elections.

Focus groups offer election read A persistent pattern in modern American politics is that presidential elections rarely turn out the way they look a year in advance. Such year-ahead poll leaders as Walter Mondale, George H.W. Bush and Hillary Clinton can attest to that. So it may not mean much that pundits and voters regard Clinton as the person most likely to become the 45th president; after all, eight years ago, she didn’t even win her party’s nomination. The strong regard many Americans have for her ability and intelligence is not matched by a similar regard for her honesty and human qualities. And despite early domination of the Republican race by Donald Trump and Dr. Ben Carson, GOP voters outside Iowa and New Hampshire have yet to focus on the alternatives amid doubts about the two front-running outsiders. These factors were all on display last week when veteran pollsters Peter Hart and Anna Bennett, Democrats working under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania’s Annenberg Public Policy Center, convened two cross-section groups of Ohio voters in Columbus, one male, the other female, to explore voter attitudes in that prototypical swing state. They focused much of the discussion on Clinton. Although such sessions don’t provide numerical results, the comments and conclusions often offer insights, in this case questioning the

The strong regard many Americans have for (Hillary Clinton’s) ability and intelligence is not matched by a similar regard for her honesty and human qualities.” early 2016 conventional wisdom. They included: l Women voters: While perhaps more inclined to think the country would benefit from electing the first female president, women expressed the same concerns and strengths about Clinton’s candidacy as men. Julia Piechocinski, 26, a paralegal and political independent leaning to Trump, said, “It goes beyond Benghazi. She lied.” But most in the group praised her experience. “She’s definitely strong,” said Alan Lister, 32, an independent-leaning Republican who favors Trump. That included non-supporters. “I’m not a Hillary supporter, but I think she can handle it,” said Carla Wise, 48, a stay-at-home mother who leans Republican and likes Rubio. But she conceded, “I wish I liked her.”

l Effects of the Paris attacks: Despite last Friday’s massacre, the range of concerns seemed little different from what they would have been beforehand. “I’m not shocked by it (the Paris attack),” said Scott James, 38, a health teacher and not-strong Republican favoring Carson. “I’m not sure how it will impact us much.” But Rachel Barnes, 45, an administrative assistant and strong Democrat favoring Sanders, feared, “This is going to muddy the waters in terms of not having any meaningful discussion of domestic issues.” While many called the current situation “disappointing” and “fearful,” a majority of both groups rated the economy better than four years ago, reflecting conditions in Ohio. “Things are starting to get better,” said Karen Kendall-Sperry, 60, a teacher and Clinton backer, noting her 30-year-old daughter was able to buy a home. l Muddled Republican field: Comments about Republicans reflected far more uncertainty than polls indicate. The participants, most with college or post-graduate degrees, indicated strong doubts about Trump and Carson but conceded they knew little about some prospects, especially Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Carly Fiorina. A majority of participants listed Rubio as a candidate about whom they’d like to know more. “He has some charisma,” said Robert Wead, 69, a retired teacher and

strong Republican, a thought several others echoed. l Leadership experience: Though polls show many voters are upset or even angry with Washington, even many Republicans thought presidents need experience. A strong majority of both groups opposed a Trump presidency. Republican Wead called him “a bully and a coward.” A majority of men said they preferred “the devil I know” to an “intriguing” newcomer. “I want to be intrigued,” said Thomas Donaldson, 59, an electronic systems administrator and undecided independent. But he said Trump “just doesn’t seem like somebody I’d want running the country.” The group was less certain about Carson. “He doesn’t give a lot of specifics about things,” said James Slate, a not-strong Republican considering Rubio and Fiorina. But Cindy Schmidt, 56, an outreach director and GOPleaning independent, favored the neurosurgeon, declaring, “If either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump becomes our next president, I swear I’ll move to another country.” A majority of the men predicted Clinton would be the next president. “The Republicans are in such a mess now,” noted Wead, the proRubio Republican. But independent Donaldson provided the bottom line: “We still know hardly anything about the field yet.” — Carl P. Leubsdorf is the former Washington bureau chief of the Dallas Morning News.

While new jobs are being added to our community, the average wage for some these positions is not enough to secure affordable housing. The JournalWorld, in July of this year, stated that the 300 call center jobs added to the local economy typically start at $12.95 per hour. According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition report, “Out of Reach,” it would take a $15.67 hourly wage in Lawrence, working 40 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, to afford a two-bedroom rental unit without paying more than 30 percent of annual income. To keep workers in our community we need more affordable housing options. I believe this will not only make for a stronger community but also keep more of the dollars earned in Lawrence. Jason Kidd, Lawrence

Spare a turkey To the editor: While President Obama is pardoning two turkeys for

Thanksgiving, every one of us can exercise that same presidential power by choosing a nonviolent Thanksgiving observance that spares a turkey’s life. And here are some good reasons: l You can brag about pardoning a turkey — like Obama. l You truly are what you eat. Who wants to be a “butterball”? l Fruits and vegetables don’t have to carry government warning labels. l You won’t sweat the environment and food resources devastation guilt trip. l You won’t spend a sleepless night wondering how the turkey lived and died. l Your body will appreciate a holiday from saturated fat, cholesterol, and hormones. l You won’t have to call the poultry hotline to keep your family out of the emergency room. Seriously, this Thanksgiving, let’s give thanks for our good fortune, health, and happiness with a life-affirming, crueltyfree feast of vegetables, fruits and grains. Our own dinner will feature a soy- or wheat-based roast, mashed potatoes, stuffed squash, candied yams, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie.

China speaks up on South China Sea

Defends construction as a ‘public service,’ not a ‘militarization’ Thomas Maresca

Special for USA TODAY KUALA LUMPUR , MALAYSIA

China broke its silence and defended its expansion in the South China Sea on Sunday, as President Obama headed home after a six-day Asian trip that he used repeatedly to criticize China’s military expansion in the region. After failing to respond to Obama’s comments on the subject, Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Liu Zhenmin defended China’s construction projects on the sea as a “public service” to protect reefs and islands and to personnel stationed on the islands for the benefit of other countries using the waters. “One should never link the military facilities with efforts to militarize the South China Sea,” Liu told reporters. “This is a false argument.” China’s assertiveness in the sea has been a source of growing tension in the region. China claims most of the sea, which is a vital global shipping lane. China also has been creating islands and constructing ports and military facilities. The U.S. recently asserted freedom of navigation in the waters. Last month, the destroyer USS Lassen sailed within 12 nautical miles of disputed Subi Reef, while two Air Force B-52 bombers recently flew in international airspace within 15 nautical miles of one of the Spratly Islands that China claims as its own.

New York conducted an extensive active-shooter drill with an eye toward the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and Brussels extended its highest alert into Monday as major cities in Europe and the United States hunker down in the face of chilling threats of terror. “New York City has the strongest, most agile, best-trained first responders in the world,” New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said Sunday after the three-hour training exercise, which included federal and local responders. “They’re ready to protect us.” In Brussels, Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel extended the highest alert level for at least another day, citing an “imminent threat” to the capital. The city was in a virtual lockdown. Commuter rails and schools were ordered closed; most cultural and sports venues were shuttered. The anxious city had a scare Sunday when a major railway station was evacuated for a suspicious package, but no explosives were found. Later, streets were sealed off in the city’s tourist district due to security concerns.

During the active-shooter drill Sunday, New York City firefighters drag an actor to safety on Kenmare Street. “It makes no sense to try to hide it,” Belgian Interior Minister Jan Jambon said. “There is a real threat.” He said “several suspects” linked to the Nov. 13 Paris attacks were being sought in Belgium. The face of the manhunt belonged to Salah Abdeslam. Authorities said Abdeslam, who is Belgian, fled to Brussels from Paris after the attacks there left 130 dead and hundreds wounded. One of Abdeslam’s brothers died in the attacks. On Sunday, another brother made a plea on Belgian TV for Salah Abdeslam to surrender. “I prefer to see my brother in a jail rather than in a

graveyard,” Mohamed Abdeslam told Belgian public broadcaster RTBF. In jittery Paris, the sound of an explosion that forced evacuation of the Gare du Nord train station turned out to be a bird electrocuted on the rails, the French national rail operator SNCF said. Rome and Milan were on alert after the foreign ministry warned that St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City along with some sites in Milan might be potential targets. In Washington, D.C., Police Chief Cathy Lanier told Sixty Minutes that residents should consider taking action — includ-

ing shooting — if they find themselves in the midst of a terror attack. “Your options are run, hide or fight,” Lanier told the CBS News show. “If you’re in a position to try and ... take the gunman out, it’s the best option for saving lives before police can get there.” No imminent, credible threat was reported for Washington or New York, but security was tight. U.S. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, RCalif., told CNN that reliable intelligence can be difficult to gather. “They’ve gotten very good at hiding,” Nunes said.

Mystery megabucks: $2.2M for national debt Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

The Treasury Department received a record contribution of $2.2 million toward reducing the national debt in September, even as the government was running out of borrowed money as it approached the debt limit. Donors contributed $2.3 million in the last month of the 2015 fiscal year, boosting the annual contributions for the year to $3.9 WASHINGTON

Treasury officials say September’s haul was helped by a single $2.2 million payment but would not provide any details on the source of the contribution. A little-known account called the Public Debt Reduction Fund receives tax-deductible contributions from the public to pay down the national debt. Contributions to the account are sometimes as little as just a few cents, and come from online donations, contributions made through the Internal Revenue

Contributions toward the fund barely put a dent in the $18.6 trillion national debt.

Service and hand-written checks to the Bureau of Public Debt in Parkersburg, W.Va.

The few millions collected through the fund barely put a dent in the national debt, which is now more than $18.6 trillion. And because the Treasury is running monthly deficits, the contributions don’t really go to pay off debt. Instead, they’re used to pay the expenses of the government instead of issuing new debt. The previous monthly record

for contributions to the fund was $2.1 million in April 2012. The Treasury Department said that month was also helped by a large donation from a single donor. And while officials would not disclose that donor, it came the same month that billionaire investor Warren Buffett had promised to match any similar gifts from members of Congress.

U.S. police say deadly Mumbai strike made them better prepared Kevin Johnson @bykevinj USA TODAY

WASHINGTON While the dead were still being tallied at multiple terrorist targets in Paris, security analysts were drawing immediate comparisons to coordinated assaults seven years earlier in India. The Mumbai attacks, carried out by Pakistani members of the Lashkar-e-Taiba militant group at 12 locations across the city, served as a stunning warning to counterterrorism officials throughout the world, including the United States, and exposed the vulnerability of so-called soft targets — transportation centers, restaurants, hotels and sports arenas, among others — to rolling attacks. Within days after the November 2008 attacks, the New York Police Department staged elaborate exercises to mimic the fourday assault, which left more than 150 dead across Mumbai. In Boston, Mumbai commanders were brought to Massachusetts to prepare special bomb and SWAT units for the prospect of coordinated attacks there. And in Seattle, Mumbai is prominently referenced in a vulnerability analysis by the Office of Emergency Management as part of a “maximum credible scenario.” The method of attack in Mumbai — the deployment of heavily armed gunmen and the use of explosives, like in Paris — prompted one of the most dramatic reassessments of the terrorist threat since the Sept. 11 attacks, law enforcement officials and security analysts said. James Waters, chief of the NYPD’s Counterterrorism Bureau, said lessons learned in Mumbai have “without question” heavily influenced how the nation’s largest police force now responds to the current threat. “It (Mumbai) was a watershed moment in counterterrorism,” said Mitchell Silber, the NYPD’s former director of intelligence analysis. “Before Mumbai, the focus of attention was on spectacular 9/11-style attacks or single-target bombings. Mumbai was essentially a raid by teams fanning out across the city. It is so eerily close to what occurred in Paris; it is almost like (the Islamic State) watched the documentary and sought to re-create it.” Mumbai offered a simplistic yet lethal strategy that, like 9/11, ignited widespread fear. Directed by a control group in Pakistan, 10 heavily armed gunmen arrived by boat and dispersed to targets throughout the

Liberia monitoring 153 people as Ebola cases re-emerge Gregg Zoroya USA TODAY

Liberia has placed 153 people under surveillance for Ebola after three new cases emerged in the West African nation this past week, months after it had twice before been declared free of the disease. World Health Organizations (WHO) investigators were working to unlock the mystery of how a new cluster of cases emerged in Monrovia because there was no evidence yet of the usual factors, such as contact with a person suffering from Ebola, handling remains of an Ebola victim or traveling to a region where the virus is prevalent, said Margaret Harris, a spokeswoman for WHO. There are no known cases in two neighboring countries that, like Liberia, have been devastated by Ebola for nearly two years. Sierra Leone was declared free of the disease earlier this month. A week ago, the last known patient with Ebola in Guinea, a 3-weekold girl, was found to have recovered. Forty-two days must pass without a new case of Ebola before a country can be declared free of the disease. More than 11,300 people have died since the virus first emerged in December of 2013.

Health workers in Liberia in in 2014, which recently had been declared Ebola-free.

“What we are investigating is whether there has been contact with body fluids of someone with persistent virus,” Harris said, referring to a person who has recovered but harbors the virus. The Ebola virus has been detected in semen and earlier this year, an American doctor who contracted the disease while working in a hospital in Sierra Leone and then later recovered, was found to have the virus still present in one of his eyes. The new cluster of cases in Liberia emerged in a Monrovia suburb. A 10-year-old boy was diagnosed and then the boy’s father and brother tested positive for Ebola, according to Reuters. All three are being treated at a clinic in Monrovia. Liberia was declared Ebola free May 9 and Sept. 3.

city. Among them: the Taj Mahal Palace and Tower hotel, a local train terminal, a hospital and a Jewish community center. Casualties mounted, analysts said, as the terrorists succeeded in confusing law enforcement’s response. For U.S. authorities, Mumbai brought into sharp and sudden focus how such a low-cost operation could have such high impact. “Anybody who had special weapons training could help pull something like this off,” said Ed Davis, the former Boston Police commissioner who oversaw law enforcement’s response to the 2013 Marathon bombings. “It was very, very worrisome.” As a result, Davis said, many major U.S. cities are more prepared for a Paris-like assault because of training that was based on Mumbai. In Boston, a review of the Mumbai attacks led police to create three separate SWAT teams and explosives units dispersed throughout the city to deal with a potential multi-target attack. Davis said the teams almost immediately proved valuable in the response to the coordinated marathon bombings. In the attack, Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev placed shrapnel-laden, pressure-cooker devices at two locations along the crowded race route near the finish line. The explosions left three dead and wounded more than 250 others. While Mumbai “definitely resulted in better equipment and training” in law enforcement agencies, Davis said Paris has raised fresh anxiety. “There is no question that everybody is concerned,” he said. Nowhere more, perhaps, than in New York. Within hours after Paris, the NYPD deployed increased patrols and heavy-weapons units to some of the most trafficked areas of the city. While there have been no specific or credible threats, Waters, the NYPD’s counterterrorism chief, said the bolstered police presence relied on a cadre of specially trained officers drawn from every precinct in the city who are available to respond to threats, wherever they may be identified. The Critical Response Vehicle units, developed in the aftermath of Mumbai, are often assigned to iconic landmarks throughout the city or to locations identified in intelligence reports that may be at risk. Following the first reports of the Paris assaults, Waters said units were re-deployed to protect the local French Consulate offices and other related sites. “As soon as the events in Paris were relayed, things started to happen here,” Waters said. “There is no difference anymore between the flash and the bang. People here know what they are supposed to do. We operated as if we are the target.”

19 victims in Mali terror attack came from around the world Gregg Zoroya USA TODAY

In addition to an American public health worker murdered in a terrorist raid on a luxury hotel in Mali’s capital on Friday, the 19 dead included six Russians, three Chinese, two Belgians and an Israeli national. Two gunman who conducted the assault died after Mali specials forces troops entered the hotel. A terrorist organization affiliated with al-Qaeda operating in the West African country claimed responsibility for the attack at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Bamako. Mali troops, backed by French and U.S. special forces, conducted a seven-hour operation Friday that ended the violence and led to the rescue of 170 hotel guests and staff held hostage during the siege. Anita Ashok Datar, a former Peace Corps volunteer and an executive with an international development consulting firm in Washington, D.C., was the lone American fatality.

WASHINGTON Attacks in Paris this month have brought the issue of terrorism back to the forefront of the presidential campaign — a development that’s done nothing to diminish Donald Trump’s standing in state and national polls. A national poll released Sunday by The Washington Post and ABC News shows the New York billionaire maintaining his lead among Republicans after the attacks. His GETTY IMAGES 32% support Donald gives him a Trump double-digit advantage over his closest rival in the crowded GOP field, Ben Carson. While those surveyed said former Florida governor Jeb Bush has the “best experience,” Trump is the candidate Republican voters trust most to deal with terrorism, with 42% preferring the current front-runner. Bush was second with 18%. And in New Hampshire, whose Feb. 9 primary election is the first in the nation, terrorism has surpassed the economy as the top issue. Again, those surveyed said Trump was best able to handle the issue. Trump’s response to the Nov. 13 terrorist attacks has been controversial. He has proposed conducting surveillance on mosques and signaled support for a database of Muslims who could be terrorists. “Everyone else is coming out with polls saying I’m leading because people are sick and tired of stupid and incompetent people leading our nation,” Trump said on ABC’s This Week. “We have incompetent people.” Trump also embraced enhanced interrogation techniques — “I think waterboarding is peanuts compared to what they’d do to us.” Trump leads the field in the Granite State with just 22%, according to a Suffolk University/ Boston Globe Poll released Sunday. But with other voters split among a half-dozen competitors, “Donald Trump’s loyal 22% goes a long way in New Hampshire,” says David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston.

A silk rose lies in the rubble left by an airstrike this month on Sinjar, Iraq, which helped Kurdish fighters oust the Islamic State.

SINJAR , IRAQ armer Ato Choki feels bittersweet emotions following the liberation of his northern Iraq community this month from more than a year of brutal Islamic State rule. “I was very happy to see the city free, but it’s all destroyed,” he lamented. The militants, who were ousted by Kurdish fighters on Nov. 13, left their mark everywhere in Sinjar — from graffitisprayed walls to tunnels dug through the floors of homes that lead to bunkers built to withstand airstrikes by a U.S.-led coalition. One resident returned home to find Islamic State uniforms and a Quran in his child’s bedroom. Rubble clogs the streets as Kurdish teams conduct house-tohouse searches for bombs planted by the militants. Residents dig through the ruins to salvage what they can — furniture, household appliances and personal items. At least three mass graves have been found on the outskirts of Sinjar. The Islamic State seized this city of 80,000 near the Syrian border in August 2014 and massacred or enslaved thousands of Yazidis, members of a small religious sect who lived here. The persecution of the Yazidis gained worldwide attention when 50,000 of them sought sanctuary on top of a mountain north of the city as they fled the militants. Their plight prompted President Obama to launch the U.S. air campaign against the Islamic State. Kurdish and Yazidi forces who liberated the city also took control of a section of a highway, cutting a critical supply line the Islamic State used to move per-

Today, about 1,300 Yazidi families are living in camps on the craggy tabletop mountain above Sinjar. Some travel back to the city, salvaging anything of value

before heading back up the mountain. “ The Yazidis living in temporary settlements would like to return home, but Kurdish officials are blocking them for now. “We want to arrange a minimum level of services and facilities before peo-

ple go back,” said Zekri Musa, a spokesman for the Kurdish regional government. One difficult task is determining who owns property the Islamic State seized. Throughout the city, structures marked for confiscation display an “S” spray painted in Arabic. It stands for Sunni Arab, which is the Islamic State’s branch of Islam. Most Iraqis are members of the Shiite branch. “We have confiscated the property of those people who — according to our intelligence — cooperated with ISIS and we will give it to the families of those attacked by ISIS,” Col. Hassan Haido of the Kurdish security forces said using an acronym for the Islamic State. “People were betrayed by their neighbors.” Identifying and properly burying the dead could also take months. Forensics teams will exhume the three mass graves found to gather evidence for a potential war crimes case, local Kurdistan Democratic Party official Nasser Pasha said. The graves are thought to contain the bodies of hundreds of executed Yazidi women, and Kurdish forces may find more mass graves as they free towns nearby, he said. Another unresolved issue is who will govern the liberated city. The Kurdish regional government wants to take charge, but many Yazidis oppose that because they felt abandoned when Kurdish forces withdrew as the Islamic State moved in. Many of the Yazidis want self-rule. Of greatest concern is the risk of the Islamic State returning. “We don’t feel safe here,” Choki said. “And we won’t until all the areas are liberated from ISIS.”

Argentines on Sunday handed left-leaning President Cristina Fernandez a defeat by electing opposition leader Mauricio Macri in a historic runoff election. With most of the votes counted, Macri had 53%, compared with 47% for rival Daniel Scioli, Fernandez’s chosen successor, the BBC reported. Scioli conceded defeat late Sunday, telling supporters that he had called Macri to congratulate him, the Associated Press reported. Macri, mayor of Buenos Aires, Argentina’s capital, campaigned on promises of change and to jump-start Argentina’s economy. He emerged as the front-runner in the race after an Oct. 25 first round of voting that forced a runoff against Scioli, governor of Buenos Aires province. In that round, business-friendly Macri lost to Scioli, 36.7% to 34.5%. The election comes at a time when Argentina's economy has stalled. Inflation is around 30%, gross domestic product growth is just above zero and many private

BRATTLEBORO “We’re all potty-trained,” Kim Nace reminded a small gathering of adults at the Rich Earth Institute in Brattleboro earlier this fall. But, the non-profit’s director added, humans can and should up their game. Hundreds of urine donors in the area are making an effort. The prospect of clean water downstream — achieved cheaply — is reason enough to donate your urine to science, Nace said. Research at the institute, partially funded by the Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency, demonstrates that pasteurized urine is a first-class fertilizer on nearby hayfields. “Why waste it?” asked Nace, 57, who has transformed a garage into the institute’s lab, workshop and processing center. The conversation paused as a car pulled into the driveway. Nace recognized the driver — one of the regulars. Tom Miller, 62, stepped out, toting a 5-gallon plastic jug filled with an amber-colored liquid. Miller walked his jug to the self-serve pumping station. A wand, when dipped into the vessel, activated a small motor, and Miller’s urine was drawn

Abraham Noe-Hays, co-founder of Rich Earth Institute in Brattleboro, recycles urine into a fertilizer for hayfields. into a much larger storage tank sitting nearby. Inside the garage, a reverseosmosis filtration pump — similar to those used in the maple syrup industry — concentrates urine, readying some of it for pasteurization and distribution to several local farms. Miller’s contribution is part of the approximately 5,000 gallons the institute collects annually. Rich Earth Institute, which Nace co-founded with Abraham Noe-Hays in 2012, studies community-scale “pee-cycling”

as a viable — even attractive — alternative to what we have come to accept as our waste stream. It’s the nation’s first such pilot program. In the case of urine, the harvested resources are phosphorus and nitrogen. Both are critical to healthy plant growth and figure prominently in garden and crop fertilizers. The phosphorus and nitrogen contained in an average adult’s daily urine output is enough to fertilize the production of a loaf of wheat bread, Noe-Hays said.

MICROSOFT, VOLVO COLLABORATE ON AUTO TECH Volvo is teaming up with Microsoft on future high-tech features in its vehicles. Among the possibilities the companies are discussing is how Microsoft HoloLens, the software giant’s in-development augmented reality headset, could be used to sell and improve customers’ shopping experience with 3-D demonstrations. Microsoft will also work with Volvo on its connected and self-driving car projects. Volvo has announced that its Drive-Me program will have 100 self-driving and connected cars on the road in Gothenburg, Sweden, by 2017. “Today’s technology will allow us to achieve not only a more sustainable and crash-free future but also new benefits for our customers,” said Volvo Cars senior vice president Klas Bendrik. “Together with Microsoft we aim to pioneer in this field.” REPORT: PFIZER, ALLERGAN MERGER EXPECTED MONDAY The expected blockbuster merger between U.S. pharmaceutical giant Pfizer and Ireland-based rival Allergan could be announced Monday after an anticipated approval Sunday, “The Wall Street Journal” reports. For the combined company to secure a lower tax rate, the Dublinheadquartered Allergan would buy the larger Pfizer and the company would be based there, sources close to the deal told the “Journal.” The deal would involve Pfizer paying with 11.3 of its shares for each Allergan share, people close to the situation told the “Journal” and Reuters. In addition, a small cash component would account for less than 10% of the deal’s value, reports said. The merger, expected to be worth more than $150 billion, would create the world’s biggest drugmaker by sales. FCC MONITORING NEW STREAMING SERVICES The Federal Communications Commission will be monitoring new services such as T-Mobile’s BingeOn and Comcast’s Stream TV to ensure that they follow the agency’s open Internet rules. T-Mobile’s BingeOn program, launched earlier this month, lets customers watch online video including content from Netflix and HBO on mobile devices without it counting AP against monthly Wheeler data allotments. FCC chairman Tom Wheeler described the service as “pro-competition and pro-innovation” and said that the agency was “watching” the service. FRIDAY MARKETS INDEX

NEWS MONEY SPORTS CYBER MONDAY SHIFTING TO LIFE CYBER ALL THE TIME AUTOS TRAVEL T TIPS FOR SAFE SHOPPING ONLINE

Elizabeth Weise USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO

he first Monday after Thanksgiving is predicted to be the biggest online shopping day of the year for American consumers, even as the notion of Cyber Monday fades slightly as the line between online and in person shopping blurs. The percentage of their holiday shopping Americans do online continues to increase. A report by Forrester Research finds that while online sales are about 10% of retail sales overall, they jump to 15% during the months of November and December. Americans will spend an estimated $87.5 billion on retail e-commerce sales, the U.S. Census Bureau estimated in a report released Tuesday. The report said e-commerce increased 15% from the third quarter of 2014, while retail sales grew only 1.6% over the same period. However, the once clear demarcation between online and in person shopping is morphing into what retailers call “omni channel” sales, in which customers move seamlessly between their computers, their phones and their feet to shop. “Consumers don’t care about channel. They don’t care whether they’re looking at it on a phone or standing in a store,” said Vicki Cantrell, executive director of the National Retail Federation’s digital retail division. The four days from Black Friday to Cyber Monday have become one long sale-focused shopping period. “It’s retailers’ strongest punch of the year. They’ve really got that weekend to swing at it and move a lot of merchandise,” said Gene Alvarez, chief e-commerce analyst for tech research company Gartner. In addition, promotions and discounts on the Web are becoming available much earlier in the year. Historically, the launch of the Christmas shopping season was the

Tips on staying safe as you shop online this holiday season:

Say no to free Wi-Fi: Hackers can easily eavesdrop on your connection and steal info.

Avoid e-mails offering deals: Don't click on email offers. Instead, go directly to the retailer’s website. Hackers could be phishing for account info. Don’t be lazy about passwords: If you need to create an account with an online retailer, do not use the same email address and password you use anywhere else. Beware convenience: Never save credit card info in retail sites and web browsers. Open your statements: Pay extra attention to your bank and credit card statements. Even small charges you don’t remember can be a sign of fraud. Don't leave your phone unlocked: Set your phone to require PIN or fingerprint to access it.

day after Thanksgiving. Because it was supposed to be the day retailers went from operating at a financial loss to being “in the black,” it was dubbed Black Friday.

BACK IN THE DAYS OF DIAL-UP

Cyber Monday started out in the early 2000s. Online shopping existed, but many consumers didn’t have Internet access, or sometimes even computers, at home. “I remember those days. People had slow, dial-up connections at home. They’d to go work to get a high speed connection so they could shop,” Alvarez said. The trend didn’t go unnoticed. “People who were running the digital sides of business were saying that their sales really spiked on Monday,” Cantrell said. The organization coined the phrase “Cyber Monday” and created a site, cybermonday.com. Today, Cyber Monday is no longer driven by consumer behavior. “Before it was the egg. Now it’s the chicken,” said John Talbott, with Indiana University’s Center for Education and Research in Retailing. The shift was rapid. “It’s funny how quickly traditions take hold. Here we are talking about something that’s just 10 years old, but the kids in my freshman class can’t imagine a time when it didn’t exist,” he said.

Black Friday “was supposed to be the day retailers went from operating at a financial loss to being ‘in the black.’ ”

Remade Gawker is still just Gawker Michael Wolff

@MichaelWolffNYC Michael@burnrate.com USA TODAY

Gawker, the multimillion-dollar gossip and bile website, reined in the worst of its antisocial behavior MEDIA this summer after a widespread backlash over the particularly sadistic pummeling it gave a publishing executive without public position or profile using details of his private life leaked to it by a would-be extortionist. Gawker Media owner and mastermind Nick Denton expressed his personal disapproval about the bad judgment of his staff — a cult-like group of Denton retainers and protégées — and proclaimed his intention to remake the site into something kinder and gentler The overhaul and relaunch of Gawker Media's flagship site was announced last week in The New York Times. Not incidentally, the story was written by Times media reporter Ravi Somaiya, a long time friend and social buddy of Denton’s and part of the wide media network, that Denton — despite Gawker’s outsider rage against media insiders, and Denton’s personal hostility to the media establishment — has long cultivated. Indeed, in the months after the Gawker attack on the publishing executive, Denton made a concerted effort to consult various media figures, among them favorite Gawker targets — myself included — about the future of the site. His assurance was that he was seeking talent from outside the famously insular Gawker culture, “adults,” he said, who would

worldview. This new strategy was also the answer to a digital media riddle. Within the economic limits of digital journalism how do you make a product of superior quality and stature? Answer: You really can’t. Denton was said to be astonished by the salary levels of “adult” editors from outside digital media. What’s more, the business basis of digital media and hence the essential nature of digital journalism is that traffic is derived from an ever-greater number of stories produced at ever-more economical cost. Although Gawker, unlike many of its competitors, has periodically devoted resources to actually breaking news, its primary business is in quickly rewriting stories originally written by traditional news organizations. Gawker has more economically distinguished its rewrites through the audacity of its name calling, the rudeness of its language and the bravado with which it skirts actual libel. “Can they really get away with that?” is the question that provides Gawker’s main traffic bait. In fact, Gawker now faces something of a serious threat from an invasion of privacy claim brought by wrestler Hulk Hogan. Denton’s worries about the Hogan lawsuit are said to be part of the reason he uncharacteristically retreated from the controversy over Gawker’s invasion of the media executive's privacy. In the end, no doubt realizing that Gawker had become shockingly boring since its post-backlash better behavior policy, Denton seems to have made the more astute decision that Gawker’s business, and unique selling proposition, is about rancor and character assassination. That’s what it knows how to profitably do.

TRAVEL ASK THE CAPTAIN

How crews can handle fliers who get unruly John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

The stylish, modern design of Aloft Hotels, such as this lobby in Orlando, appeals to Millennial travelers.

ALOFT

Millennials help drive changes in the hotel-stay experience Nancy Trejos USA TODAY

Marriott International has gone from producing highthread-count bedsheets to a YouTube Web series designed to entertain younger travelers. It’s one way the hotel giant has tried to appeal to Millennials, those born between 1982 and 2000, who have surpassed Baby Boomers in sheer numbers. Marriott made its biggest play yet for Millennials last week by agreeing to buy Starwood Hotels and Resorts in a $12.2 billion deal that will make the combined company the largest hotelier in the world. Marriott CEO Arne Sorenson, who will lead the merged companies, said part of Starwood’s appeal was its strong presence in the lifestyle brand category. Its hotels, such as W Hotels and Aloft, are known for their edgy design, creative food and beverage offerings and hip public spaces — all features that appeal to younger travelers. The move highlights the grow-

ing influence of a generation of travelers with particular tastes. They want the latest in technology, common areas that double as work and play areas, loyalty programs that provide instant gratification, and interesting food and beverage offerings. “Millennials aren’t so interested in staying in their room, but congregating in compelling spaces with great design, music and a unique point of view,” says Jason Pomeranc, CEO of SIXTY Hotels, a lifestyle brand that recently opened a property in Miami. From major chains to smaller boutique enterprises, hospitality companies are redesigning properties, introducing new technologies and even creating brands to appeal to this demographic. The numbers show why: There are 83.1 million Millennials, more than one-quarter of the nation’s population, according to U.S. Census Bureau figures released over the summer. That compares with 75.4 million Baby Boomers. A Pew Research Center analysis of that data found that more

TARGETING MILLENNIALS Among the latest brand offerings either targeting or at least welcoming the so-called Millennial mindset: uMarriott introduced Moxy Hotels and AC Hotels specifically for Millennials. uBest Western, known for its budget offerings, unveiled Vib, a chic urban boutique hotel. uHyatt debuted Hyatt Centric this year, a moderately-priced lifestyle hotel. uHilton will open its first Canopy hotel next year in Iceland. Each hotel will have décor and food and beverage offerings inspired by the local community.

than one in three American workers are Millennials. This year, they surpassed Generation X, those born between 1965 and 1979, to become the largest group within the American workforce.

10 TRAVEL APPS WITH NEGATIVE REVIEWS Ratings and reviews from Apple’s App Store and Google Play, compiled by Applause’s user sentiment analysis tool, show dissatisfaction with many popular travel brands. 1. American Airlines: Customers have been frustrated with “integration issues” between American Airlines and US Airways during their merger. 2. Travelocity: Android app has limited functionality, driving users to vent about their disappointing experiences through app store ratings and reviews.

chris@elliott.org Special for USA TODAY

If you travel, you probably already know that smartphone apps aren’t that smart. In fact, they’re sometimes buggy, sluggish and hard to use. “Often, apps are designed according to how internal software systems operate,” says Yossi Langer, principal of app usability consulting firm Iteration Group, “but not how users think.” For example, a search function on a travel app might ask the user to enter a start date and an end date. But you’d prefer plain language such as “next two weeks.” Chances are, you have a few of these troublesome apps installed on your phone. Feel free to check (see below). I’ll wait right here. The latest crop of iPhones and Nexus devices is coming out just in time for the holidays, so this is the perfect time to remember there’s a galaxy of flawed smartphone apps out there, each with its own scathing one-star reviews. How do you avoid these bad apps? Even if you can — what should you do about them? It turns out there are a few telltale signs that you are about to install a deeply flawed app, and there are things you can do to prevent that mistake. One sign that an app could be trouble is the price. If it’s “free,” then experts warn that the devel-

“They are becoming the earners, the spenders, the travelers, and importantly, the workers,” says Tina Edmundson, Marriott’s global officer for luxury and lifestyle brands. What makes them even more attractive to the hotel industry is that they are nearly twice as likely to travel for business as Baby Boomers: 46% of Millennials are willing to do so vs. 26% of their older counterparts, according to a recent study by the Global Business Travel Association. “By 2025, these guys are going to make up three-quarters of the workforce,” says Guy Langford, vice chairman and U.S. leader of travel, hospitality and leisure at Deloitte. “We have to understand what impact they’re going to have in 10 years’ time.” Some hoteliers say they’re not going after a particular age. They’re going after an attitude. “I think you can get caught up in being very targeted and specific to a demographic vs. a psychographic,” says Brian McGuinness, senior vice president of specialty select brands such as Aloft and Element at Starwood.

Q: What is the ideal passenger for flight attendants? We seem only to read articles about adversity. — Submitted by reader Ed Brown, Toms River, N.J. A: The vast majority of passengers are wonderful people. They are courteous and concerned about their fellow passengers. They follow the instructions of the crew and will help when asked. A few cause disruptions, and those are reported in the news media. Nearly 3.5 billion passengers flew last year, according to the International Air Transport Association. Though there were a few incidents of passenger disruptions, almost all the flights were conducted safely and efficiently, and passengers had a pleasant experience. Q: In the case of an attendant having to deal with an unruly passenger, should we help or stand back? — J.T. Skelton, Birmingham, Ala. A: Flight attendants are professionals and are trained in conflict resolution. I suggest you only get involved if directly asked by a member of the flight crew. Q: Does a flight crew like to know if police are on board the aircraft? I flew frequently as an officer; but by nature, I would always intervene for an emergency, medical or otherwise. — Dan, Chandler, Ariz. A: Yes, flight crewmembers like to know when specially trained people are on board. These include, but are not limited to, doctors, nurses, EMTs and law enforcement professionals. Q: Why is the public so rude? — Retired captain Thomas Peters A: Sadly, the rudeness is the result of society’s acceptance of it.

3. Hertz: Customers are frustrated with their inability to save login information on their iPhones and iPads. 4. Delta: iOS app can crash and display incorrect flight information, according to customers.

5. Southwest Airlines: Crashes, hangs and freezes plague the Southwest Airlines app for Android. 6. Jetblue: Limited flight selection and timeouts in iOS app happen before you’re able to purchase tickets, passengers say. 7. United: App is a battery hog and has limited functionality on the iPad. Some times are formatted incorrectly. 8. IHG: Android app drains phone and tablet batteries, even when the app isn’t in use. LDPROD, GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

There are a few telltale signs that you are about to install a flawed app, and there are things you can do to prevent that. oper is looking for other ways to monetize it. “Beware of free apps,” says Jack Vonder Heide, president of the Technology Briefing Centers, an Oak Brook, Ill., technology consultancy. “Nothing is free. You are probably trading at least some personal data in exchange for the app.” Actually, most app disasters can be stopped before they ever start. If you just read the app’s privacy policy before downloading it, you can avoid a lot of the most problematic programs. “Most privacy policies will disclose which personal data elements are accessed and how they are used,” Vonder Heide says. If you’re not comfortable, don’t download it. Here’s another giveaway: The reviews are awful. Obvious, right?

Not necessarily. Think about it. How many times have you overlooked a one-star review if it was something you really wanted? Yeah, me, too. “I recommend avoiding applications with many one-star reviews that reference application crashes, poor battery life or poor user experience,” says Hamilton Turner, director of malware research at OptioLabs. Ethan Davidoff, a vice president at RiskIQ, a Web and mobile security firm in San Francisco, says once you download an app, pay attention to the permissions it requests. “They should make sense,” he says. For example, if you install a Wi-Fi hotspot finder on your Android smartphone, it shouldn’t request permission to access your personal information. Watch out

9. Uber: Android users are unsatisfied with Uber’s accuracy when it comes to estimating fare costs and locating-specific addresses on the map. 10. HomeAway: Customers using iOS are easily frustrated with blank screens, slow booking confirmations and pending credit card transactions.

for messages such as “android .permission.READ_CONTACTS” or “android.permission. RECEIVE_SMS” By the way, you’ll want to upgrade your version of Android, experts say. The previous editions had an all-or-nothing approach to permissions. Android M gives you more control, allowing you to grant certain permissions to an app. Let’s be honest. You probably already have the worst app for your next trip installed. Why? Because some of the most flawed apps are offered by major airlines, hotels and online travel agencies,

at least according to the reviews. The red flags are flapping in the wind. “Apple and Google make it simple for consumers to avoid low-quality apps by prominently displaying star ratings and showcasing the user reviews that are rated as most helpful in every app’s profile,” says Ben Gray, a digital experience analyst for Applause, which rates apps. Maybe it’s as simple as that. The warning signs are there. All you have to do is heed them. Elliott is a consumer advocate and editor at large for National Geographic Traveler.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

BEVERLY HILLS How odd to watch history replayed on the big screen when it’s your own. That’s where Kirk Douglas, 98, found himself viewing Trumbo (in select theaters; opens nationwide Nov. 25), a new biopic of Academy Award-winning screenwriter Dalton Trumbo (played by Bryan Cranston), who was forced to work under a pen name during the McCarthy years when he was blacklisted as a Communist sympathizer. Douglas’ Spartacus plays a key role in the film: It was the first major movie to break the blacklist by putting Trumbo’s real name back in the credits in 1960. (Exodus, also written by Trumbo, followed suit shortly after.) Today, Douglas sits in a cardigan and slacks in his sundrenched living room. “You know, I did a lot of movies with Dalton,” he says, in good spirits today though speaking slowly (his speech has been impaired since a stroke at age 80). “They were all good.” (His favorite is 1962’s Lonely Are the Brave.) An original copy of Trumbo’s National Book Award-winning Johnny Got His Gun has been pulled from Douglas’ shelf. The author sent it to Douglas as a token of gratitude after the actor pledged to use Trumbo’s real name on Spartacus. The June 1959 inscription reads:

“Dear Kirk, Here, for what it is and for what I hope I still am, is the only existing copy of this book that’s signed with the name to which I was born — and that other name you’ve enabled me to acquire under circumstances that blessedly permit me to respect and cherish both the new name and the new friend who made it possible. Affectionately, Sam Jackson/Dalton Trumbo.” In Trumbo, Dean O’Gorman (a startling Douglas lookalike) plays the screen legend. O’Gorman wrote Douglas a letter last September seeking advice. Douglas’ shares his response to the 38-year-old actor seen in The Hobbit franchise. It’s amusingly spare. “Playing Kirk Douglas, forget him ... just play the part and you will be fine,” he wrote. In his book, I Am Spartacus! Making A Film, Breaking the Blacklist, Douglas details how he waited for most of the film to be shot as leverage to push Universal to allow Trumbo’s real name. Douglas describes Trumbo as an egoless writer who wasn’t precious about his work. “If you told him ‘I don’t like that scene’ — ‘You don’t like it?’ ” (Douglas mimics the screenwriter crumpling up a paper and tossing it.) Trumbo’s many eccentricities are displayed in the film, aided by Cranston’s portrayal, which

Douglas’ 1960 epic Spartacus plays a key role in Trumbo. Douglas praises. “Trumbo was a strange guy,” Douglas says. He’s happy that a parrot he gifted the writer made the film. The bird, Douglas recalls, used to sit on Trumbo’s shoulder while he worked in the tub. “He was a nut,” Douglas says. Douglas’ overall impression of Trumbo? “It’s a very good film,” he says, “and its spirit is true to

the man I admired.” Meanwhile, a centennial year of celebration is in store for the three-time best-actor nominee. “I’m going to be 99 years old (on Dec. 9). I don’t like it,” says Douglas, who is working on a new book of letters from his life. And how does he feel? Douglas smiles and squints. “I think I’ll make another picture.”

Katniss Everdeen was the box office victor one last time, though her latest win is a tad bittersweet. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2, the fourth installment in the dystopian adventure franchise, opened with $101 million and wholeheartedly beat down the competition, according to studio estimates from Rentrak. That’s the good news for the Jennifer Lawrence action vehicle. The bad news is that the series closer had the weakest debut of the bunch. The first two Hunger Games movies in 2012 and 2013 snagged $150 million-plus openings, and last year’s Mockingjay —

Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2, the final installment in the franchise. Part 1 opened with $122 million. The second Mockingjay might not have reached expectations, but it’s nothing to sniff at, says Rentrak senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian. “This has been a very brightly burning franchise for a relatively short amount of time,” says Dergarabedian, one that has increasingly appealed to an older crowd

and not just teenage girls. “Older audiences take a little more time to come out. For this movie, it’s more of a marathon run.” Opening right before Thanksgiving “sets you up for a great second weekend because people have a lot more time to go out.” The James Bond film Spectre and family film The Peanuts Movie, which anchored the top

two spots the past two weeks, were No. 2 and No. 3 with $14.6 million and $12.8 million respectively. Among the newcomers, Seth Rogen’s R-rated Christmas story The Night Before could deck the halls with only $10.1 million for fourth. The drama Secret In Their Eyes, which stars Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman and Chiwetel Ejiofor, rounded out the top five with $6.6 million. The smaller Oscar-bait releases seem to be doing better. Todd Haynes’ drama Carol, with Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara as lovers in the 1950s, opened in four theaters in New York and Los Angeles and raked in $248,000. “We are in the thick of awards season, and if you’re a moviegoer over 30, you have so many choices,” Dergarabedian says, as acclaimed movies such as Spotlight, Suffragette, Room and Trumbo expand nationwide. Final figures are out Monday.

Andrew White III was part of the Kansas University Class of 2012 basketball recruiting class, and Conner Frankamp and Brannen Greene came on board the following year, ensuring that the Jayhawks had an embarrassment of riches in terms of ultra-soft, threepoint-shooting touches from the wing. Except that nothing in life is guaranteed. Greene begins serving a six-game suspension today. Four games into his Nebraska career after spending two years at Kansas, White NIck Krug/Journal-World Photos leads the Cornhuskers with THE COACHES PARTICIPATING IN THE MAUI INVITATIONAL POSE outside the Sheraton Maui for a group photo on Sunday, the eve of the 16.3 points per game and is first round of the tournament.

Kyle Bush claims NASCAR crown Homestead, Fla. — Kyle Busch watched the season opener from a hospital bed, his pregnant wife and his dogs by his side. He ended the year in victory lane, hoisting the Sprint Cup with his infant son in the middle of a celebration. NASCAR’s comeback story is now a championship tale. Busch won his first career Sprint Cup title Sunday night, nine months after he crashed into a concrete wall the day before the Daytona 500 and broke his right leg and left foot in a wreck that forced NASCAR to make immediate safety improvements at almost all of the circuits. Busch withstood multiple surgeries, went through a grueling rehabilitation program and missed only 11 races. He got back in his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota in late May and NASCAR granted him a waiver to race for the title should he earn a berth in the playoffs. “Going through the rehab, it was hard. It was really, really hard,” Busch said. “To just get vertical and get straight up and down, I did about three seconds and I was seeing stars. We just kept powering through and doing as much as we could, as quick as we could, and we were able to power through and get back.” He won the season finale Sunday night at Homestead-Miami Speedway to claim the title, and knocked Kevin Harvick from his perch as reigning champion. Busch also denied Jeff Gordon a fifth crown in his final race. Harvick finished a distant second, Gordon was sixth, and Martin Truex Jr. finished 12th.

End of Rhoads at ISU Ames, Iowa — Paul Rhoads was one of the most popular coaches at Iowa State. He just didn’t win enough to keep his job. Iowa State said that athletic director Jamie Pollard told Rhoads on Sunday that he’s out after seven seasons. Rhoads went 32-54 with the Cyclones. But he won just eight games in his final three seasons. Iowa State signed Rhoads to a 10-year, $20 million contract before the 2012 season. Rhoads is due a buyout of roughly $4.5 million under the terms of that deal. Rhoads will coach his final game Saturday at West Virginia.

Inbee Park will be among the players of all-time. One tournament, three women celebrating. And just as the LPGA Tour intended, the season finale was dramatic until the end. Kerr won the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship on Sunday, taking the lead for good with a 12-foot eagle putt on the par-5 17th and soon wrapping up her 18th career victory. Her $500,000 first prize, which pushed her career earnings past $17 million, almost seemed ancillary given the stakes that Ko and Park were playing for this week. Ko won the $1 million bonus for winning the Race to the CME Globe, just as she did last year. And Park wrapped up a trip to the LPGA Hall of Fame by winning the scoring title.

Self not letting up Chaminade vs. Kansas Kansas on NCAA over Diallo

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Probable Starters

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Lahaina, Hawaii — Bill Self’s taking the NCAA and its Eligibility Center to task for its snail-like pace in the Cheick Diallo eligibility case has caught the attention of Self’s peers. “I’ve had other coaches call me. I’ve had several people text me,” Self, Kansas University’s 13thyear coach, said Sunday at the Maui Invitational news conference on the grounds of the Sheraton Hotel. “I had a coach in a similar situation phone me this morning. He said, ‘Let’s review. Our case is similar to yours.’ “It’s a bigger picture than just Cheick,” Self added of the 6-foot-9 Mali freshman still waiting on word on whether he can play in games this season. “It’s a picture on student opportunities. If kids do not do the work leading up to college that the NCAA requires them to do, it’s very understandable they should not be eligible. If they have done the work, and an entity says for whatever reason the work is not good enough and the way it’s been evaluated is not accurate, then it’s inexcusable. It goes from unexplainable to inexcusable, and that’s where we think we are right now and feel 100 percent confident about it.” Self on Saturday said KU had hired a pair of groups to study Diallo’s

and mix it with the unconditional love of his old family has made this trip to Maui one of his best. “It’s comfortable. It’s comfortable,” Manning said of being surrounded by Jayhawks. “I grew up with that logo, and (KU’s) my second-favorite team. It’s just nice. We got a chance to see a lot of familiar faces and a lot of friends, and you get a chance to spend a wonderful holiday over here.” The whole thing is made a little easier, at least for Manning and his family, by the fact that Kansas, with Manning’s son Evan in uniform, and Wake Forest are on opposite sides of the tournament bracket and

transcripts, and the player definitely has enough core courses to be eligible for games. After speaking with local reporters Saturday, he explained the situation to national media types, in effect challenging the NCAA to make a decision ... soon. “You can imagine a kid for six months hasn’t been told why he can’t play, then on Sept. 2, it was told to us he had six cores (courses out of 16 needed to be eligible). Three-and-a-half years at a school (Our Savior New American), and you only get six cores? Three of those occurred in his first semester there, so you are looking at three cores in three years the NCAA says was a quality class?” Self was asked the impact Diallo will have on the team if and when he is declared eligible for competition in games. “There’s a lot of growing stuff. He could change our team by conference, though, or by February,” Self said. “He’s raw. Even though it doesn’t seem like a big penalty (so far), his opportunity to play in games and through mistakes was two exhibition games (and) our first game of the season. Every time he’s held out and here he’s not even allowed to practice (by NCAA rules he can’t practice on the road), I don’t want to say it’s a setback … for a guy who needs the reps like he does, it’s a bigger deal than what it would be for

a veteran guy being held out.” Meanwhile, the cost of KU’s work in trying to get Diallo eligible is “approaching six figures on all levels,” KU AD Sheahon Zenger wrote in KU’s official letter to the NCAA outlining 19 concerns the Jayhawk athletics department has with the NCAA about the matter. The NCAA as of Sunday had not responded. “I wholeheartedly support such exorbitant expenditures because we have uncovered serious and legitimate misrepresentations attributed to NCAA process, unfounded verbal statements and inadequate professional standards. All of this is impacting Cheick unjustly and standing in your way of making him immediately eligible.” The full letter is available at kusports.com. As far as possible amateurism problems involving Diallo’s legal guardian, Tidiane Drame, Self reminded that Diallo was not a certain college hoops star when he left Mali for the U.S. “The whole thing about coming to the States and leaving his family 31⁄2 years ago was to go to high school here, have the opportunity to play college ball, have the opportunity if things go well beyond that. People think Cheick was a great prospect when he got here. He played soccer. He wasn’t a prospect when he enrolled at Our Savior,” Self said.

to handle whatever hand his young team is dealt. As an assistant coach with the Jayhawks, Manning helped KU reach the title game here during the 2011-12 season. As a player, Manning was not so lucky. Back in 1987, the Larry Browncoached Jayhawks kicked

off Manning’s senior season by going 1-2 at the island event, knocking off Chaminade in the opener before falling to Iowa and Illinois to take fourth place. Asked Sunday how much he remembered about playing here 28 years ago, Manning did not hesitate to take a trip down Memory Lane. “We didn’t play well,” he said. “I remember that. And we played some really good teams that got the best of us. I do remember spending a lot of quality time with my teammates. I remember a couple of guys going over here and jumping off the rock into the ocean. It brings back a lot of fond memories.” And a couple of not-sofond ones.

ning said with his signature, deep-rooted laugh. Win or lose, there will be no such boating expedition captained by Manning this week. The Wake Forest leader, whose coaching staff features fellow former Jayhawks Brett Ballard, Steve Woodberry and Justin Bauman, is well aware of what it takes to rebuild a program from the two years he spent at Tulsa after leaving Kansas following the Jayhawks’ 2012 Final Four run. “I like it because it’s something that, in the big scheme of it all, you don’t want to be in that position too long,” Manning said of being the underdog. “It doesn’t bother me. I don’t mind it. It’s always satisfying and rewarding to be a part of successful teams, but there’s a little more to it when you started at the bottom and built it all the way up.”

way to even have a chance to play with them,” Bovaird said of KU. “They have 12, 13 guys who would all start for me. At the end of the year, I predict them to be in the Final Four for sure.” Actually, on paper, there is one way Chaminade could conceivably knock off the Jayhawks, who finished last week ranked No. 4 in the AP poll: by hitting threes. Chaminade has attempted a whopping 64 threes, hitting 28 (43.8 percent) in its two games — losses to Alaska Anchorage (92-90) and Alaska (112-102). “Every player on our team has the ability to shoot threes. That’s how I recruit. We can’t get the 6-(foot-)10 guys they (Jayhawks) have. We play a unique style,” said Bovaird, whose tallest player is 6-9 Matt Southard, who hails from Norman, Oklahoma. He has played just four minutes all season. KU coach Bill Self is not looking ahead to the likelihood of playing UNLV or UCLA in a second-round winnersbracket game at 9 p.m. Tuesday. “They definitely throw it up there fast and play fast,” said Self, noting Chaminade averages 96.0 ppg to its foes’ 102.0. KU junior forward Wayne Selden Jr. said the Jayhawks will respect a Chaminade program that is 7-84 all-time at the Maui event. KU is 11-6 in five previous trips to the Invitational, winning it in 1996. “We’re not going to take them lightly,” Selden said. KU is coming off Tuesday’s loss to Michigan State, which followed a win over Northern Colorado. “I feel like, if they are on the schedule, we know we are supposed to play them, and we’re not going to take anybody on the schedule lightly.” l

Vick to get playing time?: Freshman Lagerald Vick figures to net some perimeter minutes, especially with Brannen Greene out six games due to suspension. “Whether he’s ready or not, he’s going to be out there,” Self said. “He has to play in goggles, which has him totally messed up right now because of a scratch to the eye, the reason he didn’t play against Michigan State. I think he can help us. He’s excited to have that opportunity. We need that from a depth situation, but we will play Perry (Ellis, forward) some at 3.”

Move it (but not that much): The Kansas University women’s basketball team improved to 2-0 against Memphis by sharing the basketball, which — Tom Keegan appears on pleased first-year KU The Drive, Sunday nights on coach Brandon Schneider. WIBW-TV. But he said the Jayhawks

didn’t always have to be so unselfish. “Sometimes we overshared it,” Schneider explained. “I thought Caelynn (Manning-Allen, junior forward) had the ball right under the rim on two occasions, and we’d like for her to shoot those rather than have your 6-4 guy pass it back out when you have that position.” Streaking: Junior KU guard Timeka O’Neal, a key

reserve, has accounted for more than half of her team’s three-pointers through two games. O’Neal, who missed all but one game of the 2014-15 season due to tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee, has knocked down seven of her 12 threes (58.3 percent) to start the season. The rest of the Jayhawks are shooting a combined 6-for-22 (27.2 percent).

Chiefs CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

The Chargers (2-8) lost their sixth straight. The Chiefs brought some defensive heat, even on offense. After Charcandrick West was stuffed from the one-yard line on third down on the Chiefs’ second possession, they went on fourth down, this time giving the ball to Poe. He got air and went in for his first NFL TD. “I smelled the end zone, man,” he said. “At that point you’ve got to do whatever you need to get in there. I saw a couple of bodies there and didn’t want to take a chance. So I just did it man.” The Chiefs have had the play in their playbook for a few years. Poe is the heaviest NFL player to score an offensive touchdown, according to STATS. “I needed it. I loved it. My eyes lit up,” Poe said. “We keep putting him in as a blocker. I told him we’d give him the ball,” coach Andy Reid said. “I didn’t know he was going to jump over.” Said Houston, with a laugh: “I told him I earned my touchdown. His touchdown was given.” It was Houston’s first TD, as well. “I was happy because we got a touchdown and it gave us seven points,” Houston said. Houston had four of Kansas City’s seven sacks of Rivers in the 2014 season finale in which the Chargers were eliminated from the playoff race. The Chargers pretty much melted down. Rivers had his worst game of the season, going 19 of 30 for just 178 yards. Tight end Antonio Gates was seen jawing at the quarterback on the sideline in the first half. “Really what was said really doesn’t matter,” Rivers said. “Brothers fuss and fight, for any of you that have brothers. And I Iove Antonio and I think he will tell you the same thing.” Rivers said Sunday’s face-plant “is about as tough as it gets and not like it hasn’t been tough the last five. This one, it gets even worse.” Smith, who led Helix High to consecutive city championships at Qualcomm Stadium, completed 20 of 25 passes for 253 yards. He also ran seven times for 33 yards. There’s a chance this was Smith’s last appearance at Qualcomm Stadium. Chargers chairman Dean Spanos has infuriated fans with his intention to move the team to an industrial suburb of Los Angeles, which would require approval of fellow owners. “To have been able to play here and play high school football, it was a big deal,” Smith said. “To come back and play in college and in the pros, it’s been special.”

SCOREBOARD NASCAR Sprint Cup

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

As discouraged as Kansas University’s football players felt Saturday after a 49-0 home loss to West Virginia, the Jayhawks have plenty of incentives to do everything they can to move on, forget all the negatives and mistakes and prepare for their next game as if it were the most important one in the nation. KU senior defensive end Ben Goodman said the next few days will be intense because of the finality of the upcoming Sunflower Showdown with Kansas State (3 p.m. Saturday at Memorial Stadium, televised on FOX Sports 1). It’s KU’s final game of 2015, the Jayhawks’ last chance to avoid a winless season, and their rivals from Manhattan will be on the other side of the line of scrimmage. “It definitely makes it a little bit easier,” Goodman said of getting over

their latest defeat. “It’s K-State week. If you can’t get excited for K-State week, you shouldn’t be playing on the field.” Kansas hasn’t defeated its rival since 2008, when Mark Mangino was head coach and Todd Reesing played quarterback. David B e a t y , then a w i d e receivers coach at Kansas, audibly sighed d u r i n g Goodman the WVU postgame news conference after saying his team looked forward to the upcoming rivalry game because, in that moment, the appeal of facing Kansas State (4-6 overall, 1-6 Big 12) wasn’t going to help him deal with the blowout loss his team had just suffered. “And we’ve got to go back to the drawing board this week, because we obviously had some

breakdowns this week with a team that runs the ball pretty well, with the quarterback, just like KState does,” Beaty said after the Mountaineers had three 100-yard rushers in a game — including QB Skyler Howard’s team-leading 129 — for the first time since 1969. “So we’ve got some things we’ve got to go get shored up as we head into this game.” WVU finished with 630 yards of total offense, but KU’s defense accounted for just one aspect of Beaty’s problems. The Kansas offense, which totaled just 127 passing yards and 94 rushing yards, went three-andout on 10 of its 17 possessions and turned the ball over on four others. “You know, and then offensively, we’ve got to find a way to create more offense than what we got,” Beaty said of another challenge for KU (0-11, 0-8), “to be able to pull that thing out next week in a big game, a great
