and Young were to be in their friends’ wedding in November.

This past weekend, Roberts, a 2010 THS graduate, was one of six who died in a grain elevator explosion at the Bartlett Grain Co. facility in Atchison.

“He was always happy,” George said, describing Roberts.

“He was a spur-of-the-moment

kind of guy. He was very caring.

He would do anything for his friends.”

Roberts and Cobleigh were to be married Nov. 19, George said.

“He loved Alicia beyond words,” George said.

They also were planning a spring honeymoon cruise in the Bahamas.

CHAD ROBERTS and his fiancée, Alicia Cobleigh, of Tonganoxie, were to be married on Nov. 19. Roberts, 20, was one of six Bartlett Grain Co. employees killed in Saturday’s grain elevator explosion in Atchison.

George is best friends with Cobleigh, whom she met through Roberts. Cobleigh went to school at nearby Pleasant Ridge High School.

Roberts, 20, was one of three Bartlett employees found during the weekend, according to Please see TONGANOXIE , page 2A

Downtown transformed as if by a spell

ONLINE: See the video at LJWorld.com

Dozens of ghouls, goblins, zombies, princesses, cartoon characters — and at least one very convincing robot/ mad scientist duo — descended on Massachusetts Street for the annual tradition of downtown trick-or-treating Monday.

Beverly Dick, owner of House Parts, 714 Mass., passed out candy for the third year in a row because she said it was “a really great way for families to get out” on Halloween.

Here are the stories behind just a few of the costumes spotted early in the evening:

Twin 2-year-olds Jax and Croix Kelley, with their blue hair and red jumpsuits, got attention as Things 1 and 2 of Dr. Seuss fame. Their mother, Shawn Kelley, said that they loved the “Cat and the Hat” and so it seemed like a logical choice.

Jerry Campbell thought Jax and Croix’s costumes were some of the cleverest he’d seen. But his own 2-year-old’s was pretty smart, too — Etta Bea trick-or-treated as her nickname, that is with wings, a black-and-

yellow “body” and a fairy-like wand; she was Bumblebee. “Her favorite part is the stick,” Campbell said.

Logan and Carter Dinges are brothers and, respectively, dressed as Big and Baby Jay. Logan is older and says it was his idea to go with a Jayhawk theme

Sarah Aistrup, who passed out candy in front of Genovese, 941 Mass., said that the best costumes she had seen were the “flock of baby chicks” — well, until a baby bunny walked by.

City Commission to consider food gardens on public lands

TOPEKA — House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence says Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, a Republican, needs to focus on his job and not his “personal crusade” against illegal immigration.

But Kobach said Davis’ criticism didn’t make sense, and Kobach reiterated that he works full time on his job as secretary of state and does Davis outside legal work on his own time.

Davis said the recent fine levied by state ethics officials against Kobach’s campaign for Kobach campaign finance reporting violations showed that Kobach “is spending too much time traveling around the country on a personal crusade and not enough time doing the job the people of Kansas elected — and pay — him to do.”

Last week, Kobach’s campaign was fined the maximum amount of $5,000 for failing to report accurately nearly $80,000 in contributions and expenses in Kobach’s successful 2010 campaign for secretary of state.

During the last legislative session, Davis had proposed a measure that would require statewide elected officials to refrain from outside employment during their time of public service.

The measure was aimed at Kobach, who as an attorney has worked nationally to assist cities and states in drafting illegal immigration laws.

City commissioners will talk about a whole different type of “growing business” at their meeting this evening.

Commissioners will be asked to consider starting a unique program that would allow small-scale farmers to use either portions of city parks or vacant ground owned by the city to grow fruits, vegetables and other crops.

“These are vacant or often underutilized spaces that we are already paying to mainCITY tain,” said Eileen Horn, COMMISSION the sustainability coordinator for the city and the county. “This would be a way to maintain them and get a community benefit.”

Horn has worked with the city’s Parks and Recreation

staff, the Douglas County Food Policy Council and others to identify 14 sites totaling about 70 acres that could be used for the program.

Eleven of the sites are on city-owned property, while three are on county-owned sites. Douglas County commissioners are expected to discuss the proposal at their Wednesday meeting.

The proposed sites are:

0.79 of an acre in Burcham Park, Second and Indiana streets.

0.41 of an acre in John Taylor Park, 200 N. Seventh St.

1.17 acres at the future park site at Peterson and Iowa near the Hallmark Cards plant.

0.34 of an acre adjacent to the Burroughs Creek Trail east of Garfield and Delaware streets.

0.33 of an acre at the va-

cant lot at 12th and Brook streets;

0.1 of an acre on vacant lots at 1304 and 1315 Pa. St.

0.9 of an acre on a vacant lot at North Eighth and Oak streets.

Four separate tracts — 6.81, 6.78, 6.76 and 26.13 acres — at Riverfront Park in North Lawrence.

Kobach CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Kobach has co-authored the most controversial of those laws in the nation, including those in Arizona and Alabama, and is in frequent legal battles over the issue of illegal immigration.

“I’m once again calling on Secretary Kobach to end his private legal practice, which is obviously taking up so much time that he can’t even follow the laws that his own office helps to enforce, and become a full time secretary of state,” Davis said.

But Kobach said, “Mr. Davis’ complaint makes no sense. The reports filed by my campaign treasurer in 2009 and 2010 bear absolutely no relationship to how I have spent my spare time since being inaugurated in 2011.”

Kobach has often said that he works in his spare time on immigration issues in other states and that work does not detract from his duties as secretary of state.

His office said Monday that Kobach spends 40 hours to 50 hours per week on secretary of state business and five hours to 15 hours per week of his spare time on legal work “helping cities and states to stop illegal immigration.”

In a Statement of Substantial Interest filed with the secretary of state’s office in April, Kobach listed 10 clients who paid fees or commissions to him of at least $2,000 in the preceding calendar year. Kansas law doesn’t require a state official to list an exact amount of compensation.

According to the Statement of Substantial Interest, Kobach’s clients included the Immigration Reform Law Institute, a Washington, D.C.-based group that fights illegal immigration. He also did work for the city of Fremont, Neb., and Maricopa County, Ariz., on immigration issues. His other clients included Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak and Stewart, of Greenville, S.C.; CMP Susquenhanna Corp., of Atlanta, Ga.; Snell & Wilmer of Phoenix; The Federalist Society, of Washington, D.C.; Digital Ally Inc. of Overland Park; The Eagle Forum Education and Legal Defense Fund of St. Louis; and the 7th District Missouri Republican Assembly of Springfield, Mo.

By John Hanna and Roxana Hegeman Associated Press

ATCHISON — The men killed in a grain elevator explosion in Kansas included an Iraq war veteran, an avid collector of model John Deere tractors who hoped to farm and a soon-to-be husband looking forward to a wedding only three weeks away.

Four of the six were younger than 25, something unsurprising in a business that experts say involves a lot of physical labor and tends to be a young man’s game.

The work there also tends to be dangerous. Farmers take their grain to elevators to be stored, and sometimes processed, before it is marketed or sold. Fine, highly combustible grain particles flow through the buildings as corn and other grain are moved. A spark from equipment or perhaps a cigarette can ignite the dust, sending a pressure wave that detonates the rest of the floating dust in the facility.

Relatives gathered Monday outside the Bartlett Grain Co. elevator in Atchison, about 50 miles northwest of Kansas City. They turned the sign outside the elevator into a memorial for the dead, with a gray sweatshirt honoring one with his name written in marker and the question, “Why!” The bodies of three victims were found over the weekend, but unstable concrete, hanging steel beams and other damage had forced crews to temporarily suspend the search for the remaining three. They were found Monday morning.

They were elevator employees John Burke, 24, of Denton, and Ryan Federinko, 21, Curtis Field, 21, and Chad Roberts, 20, all from Atchison. Two grain inspectors also died. They were Travis Keil, 34, an Iraqi war veteran from Topeka with three children who’d been a site inspector for 16 years, and Darrek Klahr, 43, of Wetmore.

The memorial for the victims included a wreath of sunflowers, which were part of the theme for the wedding reception Roberts and his fiancée had planned at a local Veterans of Foreign Wars hall. The high school sweethearts planned to marry Nov. 19, and they’d already bought a home in April and renovated it.

“He was fun, and he couldn’t wait to be a husband and a dad,” said Roberts’ fiancée, Alicia Cobleigh.

She said he liked to hunt and fish and often took her fishing with him.

Risk factors There have more than 600 explosions at grain elevators, killing more than 250 people and injuring more than 1,000 over the past four decades, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Last year, there were

MCKINLEY KEIL, 8, wipes away tears as she looks at a memorial Monday outside the Bartlett Grain Company in Atchison.

Mckinley’s dad, Travis Keil, was one of six people killed in an explosion at the elevator Saturday night. nonfatal grain explosions or fires in several states including Nebraska, Illinois, Ohio, South Dakota and Louisiana.

But Tom Tunnell, executive director of the Kansas Grain and Feed Association, the industry’s trade group, said he worked at an elevator for nine years and likened the possibility of major accidents to that of airplane crashes.

The cause of Saturday’s explosion is still under investigation. Senior Vice President Bob Knief said Bartlett’s safety record was “exemplary” and the company is cooperating with OSHA and other government agencies.

He spoke at a news conference and declined to answer questions.

Along with the six people killed, two were injured in the blast. One was in critical condition and the other was listed as serious on Monday, said Bob Hallinan, spokesman for the Kansas University Hospital in Kansas City, Kan. Bartlett Grain Co. worker Joey Arnold, 21, of Atchison, was outside the elevator when the explosion occurred, in a locomotive, pushing grain cars forward.

He ran from the blast, escaping without physical injury.

“A fireball shot out the back,” he said.

Keil, 34, began inspecting grain as a job after graduating from high school in Salina. His parents, Gary and Ramona Keil, said he became interested in agricultural science in high school and became good enough at grading grain to go to state and national Future Farmers of America contests. They said he occasionally mentioned the potential danger involved but enjoyed his job.

“We just love him and miss him and want him back, and it was just wrong timing,” said the grain inspector’s 12-year-old son, Teagan, crying as he spoke with reporters. “People say you don’t know what you have until you lose it, and I’ve lost him.”

Attractive work Tunnel said grain elevators tend to attract younger employees. The work is “labor intensive,” but the wages are “competitive,” he said.

An association survey of 40 Kansas elevators found warehouse employees doing harvest work earned an average of $33,300 in wages and bonuses last year. Maintenance workers earned an average of $45,500, and superintendents made about $45,500 to $47,000 a year.

“A lot of these individuals don’t necessarily have a fouryear degree for something like this, so there are a lot of great local career opportunities that grain elevator facilities provide,” said Sarah Bowser, the group’s membership services director. “And when you drive across Kansas, you see a local grain elevator almost everywhere.”

Field, who collected model tractors, had worked at the Bartlett elevator for nearly a year, while also working on his family’s farm. He didn’t talk about the potential dangers of working at an elevator, his parents said.

“Until this happened, everything was just good,” said Lynn Field, his father. “He enjoyed coming to work, and he enjoyed the people he was working with. And that makes for a nice, happy job.”

Also, the father said, “Just trying to get a job right now — everybody knows it’s a tough job market.”

U.S. cuts off UNESCO funding after vote A decision by the U.N.’s cultural organization to admit Palestine as a member state set off a confrontation between the United States and the United Nations, threatening to strip Washington of influence in several key international agencies while cutting off a major source of contributions to the world body.

The Obama administration said it would cut off funding for the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization just hours after the group on Monday voted 107-14 to accept the Palestinian Authority as a full member. The UNESCO action triggered U.S. laws from the early 1990s that bar Washington from giving money to any U.N. body that grants state status to Palestine.

U.S. officials said they would block a planned payment of $60 million due to the group next month, and warned that they could be forced to halt payments for other U.N. groups as well if they accede to Palestinian requests for full membership.

The cutoff deprives UNESCO of 22 percent of its funding, and could force the agency, which focuses on literacy, human rights and the preservation of historic sites worldwide, to soon begin laying off employees, diplomats said.

NATO ends 7-month campaign NATO’s triumphant, 7-month air campaign against Libya ended Monday, setting the country on the path to a democratic transition less than two weeks after the capture and killing of ousted dictator Moammar Gadhafi.

The alliance turned down a Libyan request to extend the protective umbrella for a few more weeks, apparently eager to exit on a high note and wrap up a costly mission at a time of financial austerity.

The relatively quick victory in Libya represented a major boost for a Cold War alliance bogged down in a 10-year war in Afghanistan, a 12-year mission in Kosovo and the seemingly never-ending anti-piracy operation off the Somali coastline.

Obama orders FDA to cut shortages President Barack Obama has signed an executive order directing the Food and Drug Administration to take steps to reduce drug shortages.

Before signing the order in the Oval Office Monday, Obama said the U.S. has recently seen how shortages of some drugs “can really have an adverse impact” on patients.

He said Congress has been working on the issue but that “we can’t wait for action on the Hill.” He said the administration will still push for a bipartisan bill.

The White House says the order will broaden reporting of potential shortages of certain prescription drugs and speed up regulatory reviews that can help prevent or respond to shortages.

Cain denies sexual harassment claims Denying he ever sexually harassed anyone, Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain declared Monday he was falsely accused in the 1990s while he was head of the National Restaurant Association and the allegations are surfacing now as part of a “witch hunt.”

The former pizza company executive was responding to a Politico report that said the trade group gave financial settlements to at least two female employees who had accused Cain of inappropriate sexual behavior. He said he didn’t know whether the Cain association provided any such settlements, and he declined to address specifics of the accusations or the resolution.

“There’s nothing else there to dig up,” he declared at the National Press Club. “We have no idea the source of this witch hunt, which is really what it is.”

United Nations marks 7 billionth baby One South African mother, just 19, named her newborn “Enough” and shrugged off a nurse who questioned whether she was old enough to know how many children she wanted.

In Nigeria, newborn twins have to share a bassinet in a crowded public hospital that doesn’t have enough electricity.

“Where there is life, there is hope,” their mother said. But as the world’s population surpasses 7 billion, fears were stirred anew about how the planet will cope with the needs of so many humans.

The United Nations marked the milestone Monday, even though it is impossible to pinpoint the arrival of the globe’s 7 billionth occupant because millions of people are born and die each day.

Jason Van Nice, construction manager for the Kansas Department of Transportation, said crews are watering the main hauling routes that the construction vehicles travel, but he said the extremely dry conditions have made dust control challenging. Crews are expected to continue pouring concrete for the road until temperatures consistently reach the freezing mark, Van Nice said.

A group of Basehor residents is seeking the recall of Basehor City Council members Dennis Mertz and Iris Dysart, accusing them of violating the Kansas Open Meetings Act in connection with their surprise Sept. 19 vote to fire former City Administrator Mark Loughry.

Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson late last week approved an application to circulate recall petitions for Mertz and Dysart.

If the Basehor residents sponsoring the petition can collect the necessary number of signatures, the city could have a recall election for the two council members within the next three months, Leavenworth County Clerk Janet Klasinski said.

A group of Basehor residents submitted the application for the recall petitions last week, Klasinski said, and Thompson determined their application cited sufficient grounds for recall for the effort to proceed.

Box had discussions connected to Loughry’s firing outside of a public meeting, which would violate the Kansas Open Meetings Act. Stonacek told the Basehor Sentinel on Monday that the three members of the recall committee, all residents of the Falcon Lakes subdivision in northern Basehor, had started working on the effort shortly after the City Council voted to fire Loughry in September.

The three residents thought that meeting minutes and reports in the Sentinel had indicated an open-meetings violation by Mertz, Dysart and

OLATHE — Kansas University officials told the Kansas Bioscience Authority’s board of directors the university is pursuing new ways to make petroleum-based chemicals that could have a large benefit for the Kansas economy, particularly in rural parts of the state.

KU researchers are working on new ways to create chemicals essential to the making of all kinds of household products as part of the Center for Environmentally Beneficial Catalysis.

Currently, many of these chemicals are petroleum-based, and KU researchers, in tandem with several industry partners, are working to develop alternatives made from grasses and other plant matter.

The effort could be an economic boon to the state, said Bala Subramaniam, who said that capturing as little as 1 percent of the market for these sorts of chemicals in the U.S. would represent a $7.2 billion per year industry.

Revenue secretary seeks ideas for overhauling state tax code on tour

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback’s point man on overhauling the Kansas tax code is headed out to western Kansas on a listening tour about tax policy, officials announced Monday.

Kansas Department of Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan will hold meetings in Great Bend, Garden City and Colby today, and Hays and Salina on Wednesday.

The meetings have been arranged with the help of the Kansas Farm Bureau and Kansas Rural Economic Development Alliance, the Revenue Department reported.

“This is part of our ongoing effort as part of the Brownback Road Map for Kansas to gather input on tax policy and economic growth from a

Petition

wide array of Kansans,” Jordan said.

Brownback, a Republican, has said he wants to cut the state income tax as a way to spur economic growth.

Brownback’s administration has been working behind closed doors on a plan that will be unveiled sometime in November and forwarded to the Legislature for consideration.

Asked why Jordan was not traveling to other areas on the listening tour, his spokeswoman Jeannine Koranda said Jordan has been in other areas of the state and received input on tax issues. He has yet to travel to western Kansas as revenue secretary, she said.

Meanwhile, a group headed by former Kansas Republican Party officials who helped elect Brownback, are embarking on a short bus

tour to advocate for eliminating the state income tax.

The Kansans for No Income Tax bus tour will start on Friday in Topeka and travel to Leavenworth and then Lenexa. On Saturday, the bus will hit Pittsburg and Wichita.

“The elimination of the state’s income tax gives wage earners an immediate pay raise and encourages economic growth in our state,” said Ashley McMillan, president of Kansans for No Income Tax and former executive director of the Kansas GOP. But Kansas Democrats say cutting income taxes will result in either cuts in services or forcing local governments to increase sales and property taxes to pay for services.

— Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

Box, Stonacek said.

“It appears that there had been prior discussions, outside of the meeting,” Stonacek said. “That’s the entire basis of this recall.”

The residents submitted petitions for the recall of Mertz and Dysart and not Box, she said, because statutes would not allow for the recall of a majority of the City Council all at once.

Stonacek said City Council members owed it to Basehor residents to discuss their decisions openly, and they had not done so before firing Loughry.

“That is their responsibility as an elected official, to provide for an informed electorate,” Stonacek said. “And when there is not discussion, open discussion, at the meeting, that can’t happen.”

Mertz, contacted by the Sentinel on Monday evening, declined to comment on the recall petition.

The Sentinel’s attempts to contact Dysart on Monday were unsuccessful.

Box said Monday that he, Dysart and Mertz had never discussed city business outside of council meetings.

“Absolutely not,” Box said.

“I haven’t talked to anybody.”

Box said Basehor City Attorney Shannon Marcano had advised council members not to make any comments regarding Loughry’s firing.

Arguing that Mertz, Dysart and Box had violated openmeetings laws, the recall petitions cite that Dysart called for a vote on Loughry’s firing at the council’s Sept. 19 meeting without discussing the issue at all. It also notes comments Box made in a Sept. 22 Sentinel story that Mertz’s motion to fire Loughry did not surprise him, and he “knew it was coming up.”

Thompson said his approv-

al of the petition had nothing to do with whether the allegations against Mertz and Dysart were true. Thompson had to determine only that, if true, the allegations would qualify as grounds for a recall vote under state law.

State law allows for a recall petition for election officers in the case of a felony conviction, “misconduct in office or failure to perform duties prescribed by law.”

To prompt a recall vote, the recall committee will need petition signatures from a required number of registered Basehor voters by late January, Klasinski said. On the petition to recall Mertz, they will need 124 signatures; for a vote to recall Dysart, they will need 193. The number of signatures required, dictated by state law, is determined based on the number of total votes cast for Basehor City Council candidates in the year the member was elected.

If enough residents sign the petition, the recall of the

Monday approved a number of investments previously considered by its investment committee, including naming KU chemistry professor Jon Tunge as a Bioscience Authority Rising Star.

With the designation, KU will receive $650,000 over eight years to retain Tunge, who is one of the university’s top researchers in drug discovery and delivery.

Also at the meeting on Monday, Janice Katterhenry, the KBA’s chief financial officer and chief operating officer, announced her resignation from the authority.

David Vranicar, the KBA’s interim president and CEO, told the board that Katterhenry would be resigning to “do some new and interesting things.”

Katterhenry briefly addressed the board by telephone, saying she would miss the opportunity to be a part of the agency’s work in the future.

Vranicar said her departure was not related to the as-yet unreleased findings of an ongoing outside forensic audit of the authority.

Ruth Saale, the KBA’s director of accounting and financial reporting, will assume the role of interim chief financial officer.

Among other items up for consideration Wednesday:

Agree to buy a private road that splits public portions of North 1900 Road north of the Kansas Turnpike so that the portion of road would be owned and maintained by Lecompton Township.

Consider plans for a Sustainability and EnergySavings Reinvestment Fund, a program that would allow county departments to finance making energy-efficient upgrades.

Consider adding three properties owned and maintained by the county to a program that would “license these properties for the cultivation, personal consumption and/or sale of plants, herbs, fruits, flowers, or vegetables, either as for-profit or not-for-profit enterprises.”

As part of the efforts, ADM initially plans to locate two researchers in Lawrence’s Bioscience and Technology Business Center, and Tom Binder, senior vice president for research for ADM, told the board that the company could locate “several” researchers in Lawrence in the future as part of the ongoing collaboration.

Dan Watkins, chairman of the KBA’s board of directors, told fellow board members of the state-sponsored agency that helps fund a variety of bioscience companies and initiatives around the state that KU could be coming back for requests on this project in the future.

“We don’t have any specific requests,” at this time, said Steve Warren, KU’s vice chancellor for research and graduate studies.

Still, the overall effort will likely involve some of the initiatives the KBA funds in similar enterprises.

State tax receipts for Oct. below estimates TOPEKA — State general fund receipts for October fell slightly below projections for the first time in seven months, officials reported Monday.

The state collected $457.5 million in October, which was $4.2 million, or 0.9 percent, less than previously estimated.

The state would have exceeded the estimate but for the payout of a large one-time refund from prior years, officials said.

“We need to continue to focus on fiscally responsible spending so the state is in a position to accommodate unanticipated revenue events,” said Kansas Department of Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan.

The agency did not identify the recipient of the refund.

Even with the slight drop below projections, Kansas is $62 million ahead of estimates for the fiscal year that started July 1. In addition, October tax receipts were $123.2 million more than what was collected in October 2010. Year-to-date, state receipts are running 7 percent more than last year.

two council members would go to a majority vote of Basehor residents, Klasinski said.

Stonacek said the recall group would move quickly in its attempt to get enough signatures for a recall vote. She said that she was optimistic that the recall group would find the signatures it needed and that Basehor residents would vote to recall the council members.

“I do think that there is enough support for this effort,” Stonacek said.

If either council member were recalled, Mayor Terry Hill would appoint a replacement member to finish out his or her term, just as he would in case of any vacancy on the council.

Mertz was elected to the council in 2009, and his term runs until 2013. Dysart was elected in 2003 and has been re-elected twice, most recently in April of this year.

Her term runs until 2015.

Q:

Does anyone at The Eldridge know whether there are any descendants of Col. Shalor Eldridge living in Lawrence?

A:

Patti McCormick, director of community and public relations for the hotel, said hotel leaders have not yet been able to find any descendants of Col. Eldridge, the hotel’s namesake. But she said hotel leaders have done some research.

According to “A Standard History of Kansas and Kansans” by William E. Connelley, Col. Eldridge had seven children, some of whom married into other prominent Lawrence families. They included: Mary S. Eldridge, who married Col. Oscar E. Learnard, and Alice Eldridge, who married William B. Learnard, and Josephine P. Eldridge, who married the Rev. F.M. Ellis.

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT • A Douglas County judge Monday issued a warrant for the arrest of a 21-year-old Eudora man who did not show up for court Monday in an aggravated assault case. Jordan R. Noble is accused of pointing a handgun at four Lawrence residents in June who were traveling in a vehicle next to him on Kansas Highway 10 between Lawrence and Eudora. Noble’s attorney Clinton Lee said he had not been able to reach his client by phone recently. He had been free on $7,500 bond. A trial is scheduled for Nov. 9 on four counts of aggravated assault and one misdemeanor charge of driving on a suspended license, according to court records.

• Fire investigators have determined a Sunday morning fire that displaced a family in west Lawrence was an accident due to cooking on a grill. No one was injured in the fire at the house at 2229 Rodeo Drive that caused an estimated $228,000 in damage, according to Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical. Firefighters responded to the single-alarm call about midnight. When they arrived, fire engulfed the deck and spread through the roof of the one-story residence.

Firefighters contained the fire about 12:30 a.m. The Douglas County chapter of the American Red Cross provided assistance to the occupants of the home.

2009 motorcycle accident on the South Lawrence Trafficway is suing the driver of the other vehicle involved in the crash.

The administrator of the estate of Jason P. Kenney is seeking damages in excess of $75,000 and other costs in the case from Karissa A. Pinegar, who was driving a vehicle that struck the motorcycle on which Kenney was a passenger on Nov. 6, 2009, near the Lecompton interchange of the Kansas Turnpike. According to a 2009 obituary, Kenney, who was a carpenter, is survived by a daughter.

According to the suit, which was filed last week in Douglas County District Court, Kenney and driver Matthew Smith were traveling south on the SLT, which is Kansas Highway 10, when the motorcycle was struck

by Pinegar’s northbound vehicle. A Kansas Highway Patrol report after the accident said Pinegar, who was 21 at the time and from Lawrence, was trying to turn left into the toll plaza.

Kenney died days later as a result of the accident. Kenney’s attorneys are seeking economic damages due to loss of parental care and earnings Kenney would have provided in lieu of his death, plus expenses for his medical care before he died and reasonable funeral expenses. No hearings had been scheduled in the case as of Monday.

the county would have broad authority to end the license.

Horn said more discussion would be needed to determine what growers should pay the city and the county for use of the property.

She said the city and county perhaps could consider some unique forms of payment, such as agreements from the farmers to donate a certain amount of their produce to local food banks or to sell a certain amount of their produce at reduced rates to area school districts.

“I’m excited to see what type of proposals we get,” Horn said. “It will be interesting to see in a year or so how many more vendors we have at the farmers’ market or what schools are serving local foods because they have a partnership with a grower.”

If the project wins approval from the city and the county, Horn envisions creating a process during which interested growers would present proposals to use a specific site.

Horn said those proposal will have to detail how the agricultural operations will be compatible with adjacent residential areas or park uses.

Fire Medical Station No. 2 energized by Smackdown

By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

Turning off lights, computer monitors and treadmills helped Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical trim more than $1,500 from its electric bills during a recent four-month period.

Such efficiency-minded efforts helped all stations reduce their energy use by an average of 10 percent during the “Energy Smackdown,” a lighthearted but very real competition among stations from June through September.

Station No. 2, 2128 Harper St., ended up winning with an overall savings of 20 percent — something the station’s 23 firefighters, paramedics and EMTs achieved by making smart choices and some occasional sacrifices, Capt. Pat Karlin said.

er to the station, so that the place would run on its emergency backup generators powered by natural gas, and therefore be considered off the grid for the contest’s purposes.

“We did not do that, but there were some creative ways to find a way to make sure we were pulling ahead,” Karlin said. “Now we’re trying to make sure we keep up with those good habits.”

The department entered into the “Energy Smackdown” as the city battled against Manhattan in the “Take Charge Challenge,” a competition to help spark energy-conservation efforts.

Manhattan ultimately won that contest.

But during the four-month period, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical saved 41,720 kilowatt hours of electricity, officials said. That would be enough to run 43 houses for a month and would be equal to avoiding carbon dioxide emissions

from the burning of 3,225 gallons of gasoline.

Such positive effects can come from simply turning off lights when leaving a room, switching off TVs when they’re not being watched and setting thermostats up two degrees from their previous settings — say, 74 degrees instead of 72 — during summer, officials said.

Fire Medical personnel may have known this going into the contest, but actually entering the “Energy Smackdown” certainly didn’t hurt.

“It doesn’t take a whole lot of arm twisting to get us competing,” said Karlin, whose station battles against other stations in everything from running 5K races to raising money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. “And it’s significant savings. We’re talking thousands of dollars.”

BRIEFLY Running for president easier than expected WASHINGTON — So you want to run for president?

Turns out it’s easy to sign up.

All it takes to get on the list is a one-page “Statement of Candidacy” filed with the Federal Election Commission. The form asks far fewer questions than a McDonald’s job application.

So far, 259 Americans have registered as 2012 presidential candidates. It’s a collection of hopefuls that mixes Average Joes with the likes of Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.

But filing the statement doesn’t put anyone on the ballot anywhere. That requires filing more paperwork with individual states.

Dean of St. Paul’s stepping down LONDON — The Dean of St. Paul’s Cathedral quit Monday, the second high-profile clergy member to step down over anti-capitalist protests that have spilled across the historic church’s grounds.

The resignation of Graeme Knowles leaves the cathedral without a leader and will delay its planned legal action to evict the protest camp — though the neighborhood’s governing body says it will formally ask the protesters today to leave, and will go to court if they refuse.

Knowles said his position had become “untenable” as criticism of the cathedral mounted in the press and in public opinion. Knowles had urged protesters to leave the cathedral area to allow it to reopen its doors.

Officials shut the church to the public on Oct. 21, saying demonstrators’ tents were a health and safety hazard.

It was the first time the 300-year-old London church had closed since German planes bombed the city during World War II. After a public outcry, it reopened Friday.

Thousands in Northeast still without power WAYLAND, MASS. — Hundreds of thousands of people across the Northeast shivered at the prospect of days without heat or lights after a freak October snowstorm over the weekend, and many towns postponed trick-or-treating Monday in what seemed like a mean Halloween prank to some children.

Families huddled under blankets and winter coats at home or waited out the crisis in shelters as utility crews struggled to fix power lines brought down by the storm.

Hundreds of schools closed, giving youngsters one of the earliest snow days on record.

From Maryland to Maine, high winds and wet, heavy snow brought down trees, branches and wires Saturday and Sunday. Snowfall amounts ranged from less than inch in some places to 32 inches in the small town of Peru, Mass., in the Berkshire Mountains.

The storm was blamed for at least 21 deaths, including one in Canada. Most were caused by falling trees, traffic accidents or electrocutions from downed wires. Eight people died in Pennsylvania alone.

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

Notable

The European debt crisis has claimed its first big casualty on Wall Street, a securities firm run by former New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine.

MF Global Holdings Ltd., which Corzine has led since early last year, filed for bankruptcy protection Monday.

Concerns about the company’s holdings of European debt caused its business partners to pull back last week, which led to a severe cash crunch, the company said in its filing.

In a statement, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission said that they and other regulators had been closely monitoring MF Global’s situation for several days “in anticipation of a transaction that would include the transfer of customer accounts to another firm.”

MF Global told the regulators early Monday that it hadn’t reached an agreement on a deal and it reported “possible deficiencies” in customers’ futures trading accounts, the two agencies said.

Economy needs China to slow growth WASHINGTON (AP) — China’s high-flying economy is starting to lose altitude. The big question is whether the world’s economic superstar will descend gradually — or so fast that it harms a fragile global economy.

China’s comedown is being engineered by its policymakers. They want to slow its growth rate just enough to cool inflation without sapping job growth.

It’s a delicate task.

China’s explosive growth remains the envy of developed nations like the United States.

It grew faster than any other

major economy in the AprilJune quarter, according to The Associated Press’ latest quarterly Global Economy Tracker.

Only Argentina’s much smaller economy matched China’s 9.5 percent annual growth rate.

By contrast, the U.S. economy grew at a 1.3 percent rate in the April-June quarter, before expanding 2.5 percent in the July-September period.

The AP’s Global Economy Tracker monitors economic and financial data in 30 countries representing more than 80 percent of global output.

Economists worry that

$

China’s economy could suffer what they call a “hard landing.”

A sudden plunge in China’s growth would harm the economies of the United States, Europe and small countries that need China to buy their coal, copper and other raw materials.

That threat comes as the United States is still struggling to recover from the Great Recession of 2007-2009. And an agreement last week to ease Europe’s debt crisis might not prevent the continent from sliding back into a recession that would ripple through the United States and other countries.

‘Sesame Street’ coming to Pakistan LAHORE, PAKISTAN — Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch are nowhere in sight. But there’s Elmo. And new creatures too, like Baily, a kindly donkey who loves to sing, and Haseen O Jameel, a vain crocodile who lives at the bottom of a well.

“Sesame Street” is coming to Pakistan but not as generations of Americans know it.

The TV show has a new cast of local characters led by a vivacious 6-year-old girl named Rani who loves cricket and traditional Pakistani music. Her sidekick, Munna, is a 5-year-old boy obsessed with numbers and banging away on Pakistani bongo drums, or tabla.

The U.S. is bankrolling the initiative with $20 million, hoping it will improve education in a country where one-third of primary school-age children are not in class. Washington also hopes the program will increase tolerance at a time when the influence of radical views is growing.

Budig boost Former KU Chancellor Gene Budig played an important behind-the-scene role in West Virginia University’s admission to the Big 12 conference.

I

t’s likely the role played by former Kansas University Chancellor Gene Budig in West Virginia University becoming a member of the Big 12 athletic conference will not be fully known or appreciated for some time.

Budig served as president of WVU prior to coming to Lawrence in 1981 to take over as KU’s leader. He is highly respected in West Virginia and remains well-connected to the state’s senior political leaders. He also has played a significant role in the university’s leadership during the past few years.

Although he is a native of Nebraska, who at one time worked in the University of Nebraska chancellor’s office, Budig has remained extremely loyal to KU. He takes great interest in various facets of KU, as well as being the most fiscally generous to KU of all its past chancellors. He was upset with NU’s departure to the Big 10 conference and wants to make sure the Big 12 remains a leading conference and that KU’s interests are wellserved.

Budig knows the many strengths of West Virginia, which will help make the Big 12 an exceptionally strong conference. At a time when the public is becoming increasingly aware of the world hunger situation, the Big 12’s land-grant schools — West Virginia, Kansas State, Iowa State and Oklahoma State — will place this conference in a critically important position to try to find answers to address this growing disaster.

Budig has firsthand knowledge of the excellence of WVU President Jim Clements and the school’s athletic director, Oliver Luck, a Rhodes scholar, former quarterback for the Mountaineers football team and father of Stanford’s outstanding quarterback, Andrew Luck. Also, Budig is well aware of the powerful and large television audience West Virginia’s athletic teams enjoy on the East Coast.

Having served as chancellor of KU and president of WVU, Budig is strong in his belief that the addition of West Virginia is good for both schools and the Big 12.

Although there was considerable discussion about what might happen to the Big 12 conference under various conference realignments, it is known that KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and Athletic Director Sheahon Zenger, along with K-State President Kirk Schulz and Athletic Director John Currie, were strong supporters of West Virginia joining the conference.

Budig’s name may not have appeared in headlines and stories about the conference realignment situation, but he played a very significant role. When the football teams of KU and West Virginia meet, either in KU’s Memorial Stadium or at WVU’s 60,000-plusseat Mountaineers Stadium, and, if Budig is in attendance, it will be interesting to see where he decides to sit or whether he might elect to switch sides at half-time.

Regardless, he has been and remains a strong, effective and loyal supporter of both institutions, and his recent involvement played a pivotal role in keeping the Big 12 conference strong in both academics and athletics.

Rise of Islamist parties worries women CAIRO, EGYPT — The growing strength of Islamist political parties in the Mideast’s new democracies makes one wonder what will happen to Arab women’s rights.

I’m not talking of women in Saudi Arabia, where they are still fighting for the right to drive and are relegated to segregated workplaces, but of countries where working women have long been the norm.

Thousands of women took part in Egypt’s Tahrir Square demonstrations, and young Tunisian women played a major role in their revolution. In Egypt, middle-class women have long held professional jobs.

On this trip, I’ve met impressive Egyptian women business executives in banking, food production, and marketing. I met Tunisian women who were diplomats, engineers, professors, and pharmacists. (Forty percent of Tunisia’s doctors are women, along with 30 percent of its dentists and judges.)

Yet now that the Islamist party Ennahda has won a plurality in Tunisia, and the Freedom and Justice Party (a Muslim Brotherhood offshoot) is set to do likewise in Egypt, many active women in both countries are nervous.

Leaders of both these Islamist parties insist they won’t reverse women’s progress. Whether they keep their promises will be the litmus test of whether they are as moderate as they claim.

The pledge to respect women’s rights appears much more credible in Tunisia. Ennahda party leaders insist they support the family status law that bans polygamy and gives women the right to divorce, get child custody, hold property, work, and travel. Indeed, Ennahda’s top leader, Rashid Ghannouchi, told me in an interview that he would try to expand the law to

At a time when the Tunisian economy is flailing, women’s issues may be low on the agenda.”

ensure that women get equal pay for equal work.

“We hope (this law) can’t be rolled back,” says Lilia Labidi, a professor of anthropology and clinical psychology — who is Tunisia’s energetic minister of women’s affairs. She arrived at a breakfast meeting in a neat black pantsuit, with a large white flower pin, having just stood in line for more than three hours to cast her first vote in a free election. She had refused to jump the long queue on account of her ministerial position. (Ghannouchi jumped the queue at his polling place and was booed.)

“If Ennahda does what it says, things will be OK,” Labidi declared.

Tunisia’s election law required every other candidate on party lists to be female, so there should be a substantial bloc of women in the new constitutional assembly. Yet, even in Tunisia — where urban women are as likely to have uncovered hair as to wear head scarfs — women’s future progress is uncertain.

Many Tunisian women still live in dire situations. Labidi says that 30 percent of girls in poor areas can’t go to school — even though the law requires it

— because the roads are bad and there are no buses to take them.

And almost a third of Tunisian women are still illiterate.

At a time when the Tunisian economy is flailing, women’s issues may be low on the agenda.

And the funds to address the problems are lacking. Labidi says her ministry has a tiny budget and a small, insufficient staff.

Nor, she believes, is the world paying enough attention. In September, she left the U.N. General Assembly early because she felt no one was focused on the needs of women in the Arab Spring. She said the $700-per-night cost of her hotel room could be better spent on a project for rural women.

Many secular Tunisians told me they feared that, in a bad economy, women might be pressured to give up government jobs to men. (This happened in Iraq.)

They also feared that Islamists’ focus on the family may produce social pressure for women to stay home — and to veil.

Hard-line salafi groups and imams have emerged in Tunisia since the revolution; their numbers are still small, but they openly demand curbs on women’s rights. And the Ennahda rank and file may be more conservative than its leaders.

I could see the different tendencies within the party when I attended a large election rally the day before the Oct. 23 elections. Women were shepherded into a separate seating section from men; but on the podium, one of the top Ennahda candidates was an unveiled woman.

Yet Ennahda has the possibility of becoming the model of moderate Islam, and demonstrating that women’s rights are compatible with that religion.

Its leaders say they recognize they can’t win without wooing women, who make up half of the voters. How this Islamist party

handles the women’s issue will define its image — at home and abroad.

That positive role model becomes all the more important since Egypt’s Freedom and Justice Party looks unlikely to provide it. The party has two women among its 12 party leaders, but the Muslim Brotherhood, from which it springs, has none in its innermost circle. The party does have an active women’s movement, and it will field female candidates. But, I’m told that most if not all are the wives of Brotherhood activists.

There has been progress: In 2007, Brotherhood leaders famously said that no woman should be president; now they say their party would not nominate a woman. Party lists are only required to contain one woman, and they don’t get top slots.

Moreover, the influence of salafis here, with their satellite TV stations and donations from the Arab Gulf, has fed a sweeping conservative mood that does not bode well for women’s rights. The only national organizational platform for women — the National Council on Women — has been shut down because it was linked to Suzanne Mubarak, wife of the deposed president.

Women in Egypt need help in organizing to defend their rights, as well as to start businesses. Tunisian women need that help, too. Western governments and nongovernmental organizations should target aid and loans to empower women, and offer them training for jobs, starting small businesses, and running for office.

In this uncertain time of transition, Western countries should be helping Arab women help themselves.

Costly bridge To the editor: I noted in the front page Journal-World Oct. 28 story by reporter Mark Fagan that the 23rd Street bridge between Haskell and Barker is to be replaced. The project is estimated to take six months and will provide a bridge for five lanes of 23rd Street traffic. The scope of the project surprised me in this era of governmental austerity. My concern is that all viable options be explored before contracting the project.

The original purpose of the existing bridge was to provide a viaduct or overpass over the Santa Fe trackage between Lawrence and Ottawa. The hump or elevated roadway over the railway was common practice at the time.

The trackage is now gone and the new bridge will mainly allow passage of the walking trail to keep the south half-mile or so of it from being isolated.

This could be nicely accommodated by an 8-foot square reinforced concrete culvert at much less construction cost. If the usage of the existing street

which passes under 23rd is sufficient to justify continuing it, that could be done with two 12foot square culverts. No matter what plan is used, there is some surface drainage (storm runoff), which must be managed. Use of the culverts would eliminate most of the hump in 23rd Street, shorten construction traffic inconveniences and probably lower costs.

Howard Duncan, Lecompton

Blind support To the editor: Amy Zook is absolutely right to remind Christians that Christ liberates humanity from evil, which “separates us from God.” She did not say, however, that this same action is designed to liberate us from the evil that alienates human beings from each other. This includes political and social evils.

I’ll illustrate my point by reference to a gigantic American political wrong that is pervasive, bipartisan, entrenched, fanatical — and evil — both because of what it does to it victims and

because of the hatred it generates against America all over the world.

I refer here to our blind, stupid support of the nation of Israel, which annually consumes billions of our tax dollars to persecute more than 4 million Palestinians, every single one of whom bears the image of God and who include Arab Christians.

Christianity historically teaches that Christ speaks for God because he is, in fact, God and that he speaks for humanity because he is, in fact, redeemed humanity, freed from its slavery to evil.

As such, he freely binds himself to any word or deed of truth, religious or secular, that promotes or stands against anything that threatens the life of humanity.

America and Israel today threaten the life of Palestinian humanity. This is particularly true of fundamentalist and evangelical American Christians who are too blind or too cowardly to condemn what we have done to the Palestinians. If that condemnation is not a judgment of God, there is no such thing.

David Lee, Ottawa

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 1, 1911: YEARS “Every year the AGO Merchants’ AthIN 1911 letic Association is marked by at least one event that means a good time from beginning to end. That is when F. W. Barteldes always gives a big party in honor of his birthday which comes in the latter part of October. … This year when the invitations were issued it was seen that the party would be more important than ever for the bills read ‘Old Bart’s’ birthday and ‘Young Bart’s’ wedding party. More than 150 guests gathered in the rooms last night for the good time, many of these being from out of the city including the managers of the other seed houses of the Barteldes Seed company. There was a big feed, and a general jolly time.”

Federal agents probe Wichita mosque fire WICHITA (AP) — The FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are helping investigate a fire at a mosque in west Wichita.

No one was injured in the fire.

Wichita fire Capt. Stuart Bevis said investigators have not determined a cause of the fire early Monday at the Islamic Association of MidKansas. But he said nothing was being ruled out.

The Wichita Eagle reported that Bevis said the mosque’s attic was gutted, causing at least $130,000 damage. He said the fire may have totaled the mosque because of extensive damage to the attic and roof supports.

KU to field wacky lineup against Gorillas tonight

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s basketball team — which has won 37 consecutive exhibition games overall and 35 in a row in Allen Fieldhouse — will be taking nothing for granted in its game against Pittsburg State tonight.

“I think especially with the absences that we will have, we will be taking them very seriously,” 6-foot-6 senior Conner Teahan said.

The 212-pound former walkon is ticketed to start the 7 p.m. contest at either small forward

ISU eyes bowl eligibility ——

With KU coming to town, Cyclones need two more wins

or power forward following the two-game suspensions of Tyshawn Taylor and Elijah Johnson, seasonlong ineligibilities of Ben McLemore and Jamari Traylor and injury to Thomas Robinson.

“I have a couple of post moves. We’ll see how they work,” Teahan Teahan added with a smile.

The Jayhawks do not figure to

be joking around during warmups prior to this exhibition against a Div. II school. Several players who did not figure to be counted on heavily this year figure to play meaningful minutes tonight, which should get the adrenaline pumping. KU has just eight recruited scholarship players.

“Our numbers are so small, everybody’s got to play anyway.

If you take two or three guys off the starting lineup, we’re going to be playing with walk-ons tomorrow,” KU coach Bill Self said Monday.

“I’m not talking about the ones we put on scholarship

(Teahan, Justin Wesley this year). I’m talking about Jordan (Juenemann) and Niko (Roberts). Those guys are going to get in the game. That won’t be the same team that will be playing in the Garden (against Kentucky on Nov. 15) unless we have a lot of injuries. It will give those guys an opportunity.”

Self said Naadir Tharpe, Teahan and Travis Releford would start on the perimeter and Jeff Withey at center. The other starting slot would be manned by either Thomas Robinson (hyperextended knee) or Wesley.

Believe it or not, Roberts, a sophomore walk-on, and Juenemann, a senior walk-on, are Tharpe’s backups at the point.

“Those guys play against Tyshawn and Elijah every day,” Withey said of the point-guard trio. “They are getting good reps. They are going against the best every day so they are going to be fine.”

Juenemann concedes that getting in the game in the first half, “would be a first, for sure. I was talking to my father last night.

He said, ‘I heard Tyshawn and

KANSAS CITY KICKER RYAN SUCCOP, LEFT, IS CONGRATULATED BY TEAMMATES LEONARD POPE and Dustin Colquitt (2) after kicking a 30-yard field goal to defeat the Chargers, 23-20 in overtime, Monday in Kansas City, Mo.

K.C. screams into tie atop West

By Dave Skretta Associated Press Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, MO. — Ryan Succop kicked the Kansas City Chiefs into the history books.

Philip Rivers will be quite the footnote.

Succop knocked through a 30yard field goal in overtime Monday night, giving the Chiefs a 23-20 win over the San Diego Chargers and moving them into an improbable tie atop the AFC West.

Kansas City became the first team in NFL history to lose its first three games and share at least part of a division lead after four more games. The Chiefs are also the first team since the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2000 to win four straight games after losing their first three.

Rivers could have prevented all of it from happening.

The Chargers had trailed the whole way before the three-time Pro Bowl quarterback marched them downfield in the closing minutes of regulation. With firstand-10 at the 15 and just 48 seconds on the clock, Rivers fumbled the snap and the Chiefs’ Andy Studebaker clawed under the pile and retrieved the ball.

WEARING HALLOWEEN MASKS, CHIEFS PLAYERS celebrate their victory.

Kansas City moved down the field for its own chance to win in regulation, but Matt Cassel overthrew his intended receiver and Eric Weddle’s second interception sent the game to overtime.

The Chargers won the toss but failed to pick up a first down, and Cassel calmly led Kansas City right down field. Succop’s field goal with 5:16 left gave the Chiefs (4-3) their fourth straight win and

moved them into a tie with San Diego (4-3) and the idle Oakland Raiders (4-3) in the division.

Kansas City got off to an abysmal start this season, losing its first two games by a combined 89-10 and then dropping its third game on the road, at San Diego. Along the way, the Chiefs lost Pro Bowl running back Jamaal Charles, safety Eric Please see CHIEFS, page 3B

With four games remaining in the season, Iowa State University’s football team needs two more victories to reach six wins and become bowl-eligible.

With three of those games coming against No. 3 Oklahoma State, No. 7 Oklahoma and No. 17 Kansas State — the OU and KSU games are on the road — this week’s battle with Kansas, which must win all four of its remaining games to be in a similar position, has become something of a must-win for the Cyclones.

Although the task of topping KU and one other team is a bit daunting, ISU coach Paul Rhoads believes it’s right in line with what his program is all about.

“The ultimate expectation of our program is to win a bowl game every year,” Rhoads said Monday on the Big 12 coaches teleconference. “College football is about getting to the postseason. And you don’t want to just get there, you want to win.

For that to get accomplished, you gotta take ’em one at a time and that’s exactly what we’ll do this week with KU.” History suggests the Cyclones have an easy road to win No. 5.

During KU coach Turner Gill’s first 13 Big 12 Conference games, the Jayhawks have picked up one victory and been defeated by 28 points or more nine times.

That includes six losses of 35 points or more and leaves three losses in which the Jayhawks were competitive on the scoreboard, although, even in those games, the Jayhawks were beaten by double digits. One such contest came in Ames, Iowa, the site of this week’s game against Iowa State, and Rhoads shared his memories of what allowed KU to hang close in a 28-16 loss in 2010.

“I remember a team that was ready to play and came in and played lights-out,” Rhoads said.

“They had huge energy. They hit us in the mouth. They forced turnovers early (by) completely outplaying us. But we were able to stick around and win at the end of the fourth quarter.”

Rhoads’ Cyclones enter this week’s match-up with Kansas — 11:30 a.m. Saturday — on the heels of their best game of the season. Last week, ISU toppled No. 19 Texas Tech, 41-7, in Lubbock, Texas. Although the victory kept ISU’s hopes alive and provided the Cyclones with a

Riding a recent hot streak into the Class 6A state quarterfinals, members of Lawrence High’s boys soccer team are familiar with what stands between them and a trip to the semifinals.

The Lions are unbeaten in their six matches since a 1-0 double-overtime home loss on Oct. 6 to Olathe South, their quarterfinal opponent tonight in Olathe. LHS will meet O-South at 7 tonight at the Olathe District Activity Center.

LHS coach Mike MurSOCCER phy said even though the PLAYOFFS Falcons (15-3) were the last Who: Lawrence team to beat High (8-7-3) vs. the Lions (8- Olathe South (15-3) 7-3), knowing When: 7 tonight their oppo- Where: Olathe nent’s person- District Activity nel and how Center they go about their business could be advantageous.

“I always appreciate when the schedule lines up to where you face teams in the playoffs that you played in the regular season,” Murphy said.

His team has disposed of two such opponents in the first two rounds and has gone 4-0-2 since last facing Olathe South. In that time, Murphy added, the Lions have improved their attack.

“We’re more creative on offense,” he said. “There’s no doubt about it.”

Lawrence’s senior goalkeeper, Tanner Click, agreed.

“I feel like our offense has really figured out what they’re doing,” he said. “Scoring has been easier, just because we’ve figured out our game plan, and our forwards have started to work together really well with our midfield.”

Murphy said the team’s top forwards, junior Robert Lyan and senior Zach Wustefeld, have been consistent threats for LHS in the second half of the season.

In the midfield, Lawrence has juniors Gavin Fischer, Justin Riley and Johannes Reiber.

The coach said he will need all the Lions to be opportunistic, as they were in their double-overtime regional championship victory over Free State on Thursday.

“If we can do that, and put a ball in the goal, especially early, that would be another boost to our confidence,” Murphy said.

“At the same time, we’re gonna be prepared to battle it out and, if we have to, win it in penalty kicks after the overtime.”

Retiring La Russa going out on top

TONY LA RUSSA HOLDS THE COMMISSIONER’S TROPHY after Game 7 of the World Series in this photo from Oct. 28. La Russa announced his retirement on Monday.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Tony La Russa waited until after the championship parade and then called a team meeting with his players. “We didn’t know what to expect,� said pitcher Chris Carpenter, who won Game 7 of the World Series against Texas on Friday night. “I think we all figured it was just going to be like, ‘Thataway guys. Great year. Way to battle!’ Instead, he dropped that on us. I think everybody was caught off-guard.�

And with that, the 67-year-old La Russa said goodbye to baseball and became the first manager to retire immediately after leading his team to a Series title — the third of his career. “I think this just feels like it’s time to end it,� he said Monday. “When I look in the mirror, I know I’d come back for the wrong reasons, and I didn’t want to do that.�

Indians get Lowe; K.C. keeps Soria NEW YORK (AP) — Three days before the opening of the free-agent market, the Cleveland Indians acquired pitcher Derek Lowe from the Atlanta Braves for minorleague left-hander Chris Jones on Monday in the first significant trade of the offseason.

Rather than become a free agent, CC Sabathia agreed to a new deal with the New York Yankees that adds an additional season and $30 million in guaranteed money, bringing the left-hander’s total over the next five years to $122 million.

Several teams exercised contract options on pitchers, among them Tampa Bay on James Shields ($7.5 million), Texas on Colby Lewis ($4 million), Kansas City on Joakim Soria ($6 million) and the Chicago White Sox on Jason Frasor ($3.75 million).

Cincinnati exercised a $12 million option on second baseman Brandon Phillips, and the Colorado Rockies elected to keep former AL MVP Jason Giambi ($1 million).

Cleveland will have to pay Lowe $5 million of his $15 million salary next year, with the Braves responsible for the rest. The 38-year-old was 9-17 with a 5.05 ERA in 34 starts last season, leading the NL in losses.

He’ll join Ubaldo Jimenez, Justin Masterson, Josh Tomlin and Fausto Carmona in the starting rotation. “He’s a quality pitcher with durability, pitching 180 innings or more every year since 2002,� Indians general manager Chris Antonetti said. “The last time he was on the disabled list was 1995. In addition to his durability, there’s some leadership potential. His experience will complement a very young rotation.�

Cleveland also exercised Carmona’s $7 million option and declined an $8.5 million option on outfielder Grady Sizemore, who gets a $500,000 buyout.

Sabathia had until midnight Monday to opt out of the $161 million, seven-year contract he agreed to before the 2009 season, a deal that calls for $23 million annual salaries in the next four seasons.

The new deal adds a $25 million salary for 2016 and gives the Yankees a $25 million option for 2017 with a $5 million buyout. Sabathia has gone 59-23 with a 3.18 ERA during the regular season for New York. “My son loves it here. All my kids love it here. My wife loves it here, obviously, and I do, too. I love pitching for the Yankee fans and everything, so it was the easy choice,� Sabathia said.

New York also was waiting for reliever Rafael Soriano to decline to opt out of his deal, which calls for him to make $11 million next year and $14 million in 2013. Soriano was injured for much of this season and went 2-3 with a 4.12 ERA, losing his intended job as Mariano Rivera’s setup man.

Among those whose options were exercised were Tampa Bay pitcher Kyle Farnsworth ($3.3 million), Toronto infielder Edwin Encarnacion ($3.5 million), Atlanta utilityman Eric Hinske ($1.55 million), Arizona catcher Henry Blanco ($1.15 million) and infielder Willie Bloomquist ($1.1 million) Boston declined options on right-handers Scott Atchison (next year’s minimum plus $200,000) and Dan Wheeler ($3 million); Arizona declined options on lefthander Zach Duke ($5.5 million) and infielder Aaron Hill, whose option covered 2012-14 at $26 million total. Pittsburgh turned down infielder Ronny Cedeno ($3 million), Ryan Doumit ($7.25 million), lefthander Paul Maholm ($9.75 million) and catcher Chris Snyder ($6.75 million).

Also declined were Cincinnati righthander Francisco Cordero ($12 million); Tampa Bay catcher Kelly Shoppach ($3.2 million); and Toronto right-hander Jon Rauch.

La Russa said he told general manager John Mozeliak of his decision in August — before the Cards rallied from a 101⠄2-game deficit in the NL wild-card race to upset Philadelphia and Milwaukee in the playoffs.

They won the thrilling sevengame Series after twice coming within a strike of elimination in Game 6. “I tip my hat to him. He’s had a great career. What a way to go out,� Washington Nationals manager Davey Johnson said.

The player meeting was short and emotional. “Some grown men cried,� La Russa said, joking that, “I kind of liked that because they made me cry a few times.�

La Russa won the World Series with Oakland in 1989, and St. Louis in 2006 and this year, joining Sparky Anderson as the only

manager to win with clubs in both leagues.

During 33 seasons with the Chicago White Sox (1979-86), Oakland (1986-95) and St. Louis (1996-11), La Russa compiled a 2,728-2,365 regular-season record. He trails only Connie Mack (3,731) and John McGraw (2,763) for wins. And his 70 postseason victories are behind only Joe Torre’s 84.

A rare manager with a law degree, La Russa was voted AL Manager of the Year three times, and NL Manager of the Year in 2002. He will be up for consideration for the Hall of Fame in December 2013, at the same time as Torre and Bobby Cox. “I think you can make a case for him as best of all-time. Absolutely,� said Detroit manager Jim Leyland, who coached for La Russa with the White Sox after managing against him in the minors.

West Virginia files lawsuit against Big East MORGANTOWN, W.VA. — West Virginia University filed a lawsuit Monday seeking an immediate divorce from the Big East so it can become a member of the Big 12 before the 2012 football season.

The Big 12 announced West Virginia’s acceptance Friday, but the Big East said it would hold the Mountaineers to a provision in the conference bylaws that requires notice of 27 months before a school can withdraw.

The lawsuit asks the Monongalia County Circuit Court to declare the bylaws invalid, claiming that the Big East breached its fiduciary duty to West Virginia by failing to maintain a balance between football-playing and non-football members.

The complaint, which asks for a jury trial, also alleges that the Big East agreed to West Virginia’s immediate withdrawal by accepting a $2.5 million down payment on its $5 million exit fee. “Absent a Court order permanently enjoining the Big East from enforcing the 27-month notice provision against WVU, WVU has no adequate remedy at law to protect its interests and will suffer continuing and irreparable damages and injury,� the lawsuit says.

Big East Commissioner John Marinatto has said West Virginia is not eligible to join the Big 12 until July 1, 2014. “We are disappointed that West Virginia has adopted this strategy and cannot imagine why it believes it does not have to respect and honor the bylaws it agreed to as a member of the Big East. Based on an initial review of the lawsuit, it is clear that the allegations and claims in it are false and inaccurate. Certainly there is nothing in it that would justify WVU’s not fulfilling its obligations. To put it simply, a contract is a contract,� Marinatto said in a statement. “Once we have reviewed the filing, we will explore all our legal options and will act vigorously to ensure that WVU lives up to all its obligations to our conference. In the meantime, this lawsuit will not interfere in any way with our ongoing efforts to strengthen and expand the Big East.�

The lawsuit is the latest development in a flurry of conference realignment activity this fall. Syracuse and Pittsburgh withdrew from the Big East in September to join the Atlantic Coast Conference.

TCU accepted an invitation to join the Big East in September but switched to the Big 12 in October and was not required to honor the 27-month notice requirement.

Dodgers hire female trainer LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers have hired Sue Falsone as head athletic trainer, making her the first female to hold that job in major professional sports.

Falsone became the first female physical therapist in the major leagues when she was hired by the Dodgers in 2007. She worked in that role through the 2010 season. The 37-year-old trainer will continue to work for Athletes’ Performance in Phoenix.

Falsone has also worked with players in the NFL, NBA and NHL.

NU star Cook arrested LINCOLN, NEB. — Nebraska star volleyball player Lauren Cook was arrested on suspicion of leaving the scene of an injury accident and ticketed for driving under suspension after a motorcyclist broke a leg.

Cook has been ticketed six times for speeding in Nebraska since 2007.

Her car clipped a motorcyclist who was stopped at the side of a road in north Lincoln shortly before noon Sunday, police said. Cook called police eight minutes after the accident, and she was contacted about a half mile from the accident scene, her car disabled because of a shredded front tire.

She was in Lancaster County Jail for three hours before an unidentified person posted $500 bond. Cook has not been charged. Her first court appearance was postponed Monday.

Leaving the scene of an injury accident is a felony punishable by a maximum of five years in prison, a $10,000 fine or both.

Cook is the daughter of Nebraska women’s volleyball coach John Cook. “She stopped and called 911, tried to do the right thing,� John Cook said Monday. “No alcohol, no drugs, she wasn’t texting. In no way is this an excuse, but an accident happened and we’ll let the legal process go through that.�

Berry and tight end Tony Moeaki to season-ending injuries.

They started moving in the right direction against division doormats Minnesota and Indianapolis, and then romped to a 28-0 win over Oakland last week.

Now, they are tied for the lead in the AFC West.

The Chiefs had things going early, getting a 36-yard field goal from Succop in the first quarter and then capitalizing on Rivers’ second interception in the first few minutes.

With the ball at the Chargers 39, Cassel dropped back and saw Jonathan Baldwin streaking for the end zone, and the wide receiver out-jumped fellow rookie Marcus Gilchrist for his first career touchdown catch and a 10-0 lead.

Rivers, who threw for 369 yards, was also intercepted

by Kendrick Lewis early in the game, one week after throwing two fourth-quarter picks in a disheartening loss to the New York Jets.

much-needed dose of confidence, Rhoads wasn’t planning any parades for this week.

“We’re excited about how we played Saturday in Lubbock and want to build on that,” Rhoads said. “But we want to play better in these four remaining games.”

Although ISU (4-4 overall, 1-4 Big 12) appears to be in much better shape than KU (2-6, 0-5) heading into this week, Rhoads said the two teams were more similar than people may think.

“We’ve struggled, too,” he said. “We’re 1-4 in the league and have lost four games by a big margin. So we don’t take their record versus our record as being much different.

(Texas Tech) coach (Tommy) Tuberville and I were talking (last week) about the league and who we have left and the topic of KU came up.

We just talked about their

field goal just before halftime for a 13-3 lead.

The Chargers defense kept them in the game in the third quarter, holding the Chiefs to two three-and-outs and picking off Cassel for the second time. Kansas City only managed 44 yards of total offense through the second and third quarters.

Nick Novak kicked three field goals in the third quarter, drawing the Chargers within 13-12, but their inability to get into the end zone nearly cost them.

Kansas City finally got its offense in gear, marching 74 yards in 10 plays early in the fourth quarter. Jackie Battle finished off the drive by leaping over the scrum from a yard out, giving the Chiefs a 20-12 lead with 12:01 left.

It sure didn’t last long.

Rivers completed four straight passes covering 74 yards — one for 27 yards to Vincent Jackson on thirdand-13 — before Curtis Brinkley leaped in from 2 yards out for the Chargers’ first touchdown.

Going for the 2-point conversion and the tie, Rivers floated a pass to Brinkley in the flat and he was thrown back by cornerback Brandon Carr. overall athleticism and speed.

I think they run around real well, athletically speaking.”

Rhoads went on to reveal which Jayhawks had impressed him most. “(Junior wide receiver D.J.) Beshears, we think, is a really good player for them on offense,” he said. “We tried to recruit him, thought he was coming to our place and know how very dangerous he is. I think (sophomore quarterback) Jordan Webb is a great player for their offense.

And (sophomore running back) James Sims, I watched the video they had on their website of him run in spring ball. He scared me then, and he still scares me now with the ability he has out there on the field.”

KU-Baylor a 1 p.m. kickoff KU officials announced Monday that the Jayhawks’ final home game of the season — Nov. 12 vs. Baylor — would kick off at 1 p.m.

The game will not be televised and will mark the final home game in the careers of 14 KU seniors.

The Lions feel as though either type of match could work in their favor, Click said.

“Offensively, we’re a lot bigger threat than we were three weeks ago,” he said.

“Defensively, we’ve been solid all year.”

The defense, which has put together seven shutouts this season, is led not only

by Click, but also defenders senior Tanner Williams and sophomore Connor Henrichs, as well as senior Adrian Rivera and junior Dalen Reed.

It will be up to them to corral the Falcons’ Bryan Johnson and Nate Opperman, whom Murphy called two of the best forwards in the Sunflower League. Lawrence’s coach said the scoring duo has skill, size and athleticism.

“Hopefully, we’ll be able to counter that with guys that are hungry and determined and tough,” Murphy said.

Elijah can’t play.’ He was acting real calm. Then he said, ‘Are you ready for this?’

I said, ‘Yeah, dad, I think so.’

I have faith in my teammates, and they have faith in me.”

Releford might need to produce big-time on both ends if KU is to avoid its first exhibition loss since a 101-93 setback to Lisbonne Benfica on Dec. 28, 1995, in France.

KU’s last exhibition loss at home was 93-82 to Australia in 1993.

Self’s teams are 23-0 in exhibitions in the last nine years.

“It’s going to be a different pressure for me being able to have this role and be the guy to look to score,” Releford said. “I’m not going to go into the game saying, ‘Oh, I have to score for us to win,’ but I’m going to be very aggressive. I’m very excited. I’ve waited going on four years now. Now that I finally get my chance, I’m going to try to make the most of it.”

Self and the fans likely won’t know what to expect against a Pitt State team that returns four starters off a 1313 squad.

“My expectations will change with this,” Self said.

“If you don’t have a healthy Thomas and if you don’t have your starting backcourt, that’s 60 percent of your team.

Tyshawn and Elijah need to play at least 32, 35 minutes a game each. It’ll be a totally different look. My expectations are we play with some energy, enthusiasm and see how newcomers react when they have to play a lot.”

A new month inspires midseason musings November begins and that means “sweeps,” when ratings are measured for the respective networks. It’s also a time to take stock of the new season and its good, bad and ugly trends.

Now that baseball is over, Fox’s schedule can settle down and viewers can get a chance to see if the critics were right in anointing “New Girl” (8 p.m.) as one of the more endearing comedies of the year.

ABC viewers have had at least three chances to see why critics gave “Last Man Standing” (7 p.m.) some of the most scathing reviews of the year. Astoundingly dated and lazily written, this Tim Allen vehicle feels like a time machine set on a one-way trip to 1987. Not that some folks wouldn’t like that.

CBS has already given a green light to a full season of “Unforgettable” (9 p.m.), the preposterously formulaic procedural about a detective with a photographic memory. The most interesting thing about this show is that it was inspired by Marilu Henner’s appearance on “60 Minutes.”

Apparently nobody at NBC imagined that viewers would ever tire of watching obese people cry on treadmills. The ratings for “The Biggest Loser” (7 p.m.) have taken a beating this fall. If it weren’t for “Sunday Night Football,” the Peacock Network would barely have a pulse.

Over on NBC’s thriving cable cousin, USA, “Covert Affairs” (9 p.m.) returns tonight. This series features Piper Perabo as Annie, a beautiful woman who stumbles into the spy game.

Annie is very much portrayed as an “empowered” woman. So why is she constantly shown getting in and out of her clothes? For all of the CIA derring-do, it really seems like she’s on a series of dates with a new mystery man every week. Tonight, she meets a handsome chef who might be only a lonely restaurateur or the ringleader of a terror cell. Fourteen costume changes later, Annie makes the call.

For the record, Conan O’Brien will present all of his shows this week from the Beacon Theatre in Manhattan. It’s about time.

I never understood why Conan moved to Los Angeles. Just as Jay Leno and Jimmy Kimmel thrive on the Hollywood vibe, Conan, like David Letterman and Jon Stewart, is an East Coast guy. Audiences can tell when you’re not where you’re supposed to be and trying to be somebody you’re not.

TV-themed DVDs available today include the 1981 miniseries “Brideshead Revisited: 30th Anniversary Edition.”

Tonight’s other highlights

A foreign exchange student fits right in on “Glee” (7 p.m., Fox).

Jess sees a little too much of Nick on “New Girl” (8 p.m., Fox).

Live performance and elimination on “Dancing With the Stars” (8 p.m., ABC).

The family worries about Hope’s homicidal roots on “Raising Hope” (8:30 p.m., Fox).

After a dad’s death, his children become targets on “Unforgettable” (9 p.m., CBS).

Jasmine gets serious on “Parenthood” (9 p.m., NBC).

A teen dies at a rave on “Body of Proof” (9 p.m., ABC).

A decision by rivals may have a big impact on business on “Sons of Anarchy” (9 p.m., FX).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Tuesday, Nov. 1: You discover the power of popularity this year. If you are single, you could meet someone who will be significant to your life’s history. If you are attached, be careful not to make your sweetie jealous.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) A partner plays a role in your thoughts and actions. How you handle a person and the choices you make could affect this relationship, but that might not be news. Tonight: Let

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21) Be careful with a tendency to spend too much or go to extremes.

You might not always be comfortable with what happens. Be open and direct. Tonight: Let the good times roll.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You are in your element this morning.

Though you might feel a little drained by a boss or responsibility, you bounce back well. Tonight: Splurge a little.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might be out of sorts, but that mood won’t last long. By the end of the afternoon, you are energized, running around accomplishing more than you thought possible.

Tonight: The world is your oyster.

Dear Annie: My fiancée, “Beth,” and I have been together for more than two years. Recently, she called off our wedding, saying she isn’t ready.

The wedding was planned for a year in the future, so I am grateful she told me now.

A few weeks later, we decided to take a break and work on the relationship. We live in separate houses. Beth has a full-time job. I am in school and work part time. We used to see each other every day. Now, although we still talk daily, I only see her twice a week at most.

Beth is talking to a counselor about her issues, and we have started couples counseling. One of our main problems is that she becomes distant when things aren’t going well and subconsciously pushes me away. I have never loved and trusted anyone as much as I do her. How can I support and help her? — Confused in California
