Ousted official receiving money ——

Gov. says state doesn’t have to explain payments to Bremby TOPEKA (AP) — The former secretary of the Kansas health and environment agency, who was ousted after refusing to issue a permit for a coal-fired plant in western Kansas, has been getting payments from the state since he left office in early November, according to a newspaper report.

An attorney Bremby for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment told The Kansas City Star that Roderick Bremby has received about $18,000 since he left office Nov. 2.

Gov. Mark Parkinson’s staff and department officials told the Star that state law allows them not to disclose why Bremby was still receiving state payments.

Bremby abruptly stepped down after refusing a request from Parkinson to leave the agency and become transition director until Gov.-elect Sam Brownback is sworn in.

The departure attracted particular attention because Bremby had refused in 2007 to issue a permit to Sunflower Electric Power Corp. for a coal-fired Please see BREMBY, page 2A

SOUTH LAWRENCE TRAFFICWAY

1 | JERUSALEM

Ex-Israeli president convicted of rape Former Israeli President Moshe Katsav was convicted of rape Thursday, a dramatic fall from grace for a man who rose from humble beginnings to become a symbol of achievement for Jews of Middle Eastern origin.

The disgraced politician, who had rejected a plea bargain that would have kept him out of jail, will likely be sentenced to four to 16 years in prison. The verdict was seen as a victory for the Israeli legal system and for women’s rights in a decades-long struggle to chip away at the nation’s macho culture, which once permitted political and military leaders great liberties.

The Tel Aviv District Court found Katsav, 65, guilty of two counts of raping an employee in 1998, when he was Israel’s tourism minister. It also convicted him of lesser counts of indecent acts; sexual harassment involving two other women who worked for him when he was president, from 2000 to 2007; and obstruction of justice.

Opponents to appeal federal court ruling

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

The legal battle will continue to determine whether the South Lawrence Trafficway will be built through a piece of wetlands.

On Thursday, a group of environmental organizations and Haskell Indian Nations University students announced that they would appeal a federal court ruling that upheld the decision to align the new fourlane highway through a portion of the Baker Wetlands.

That appeal will be filed with

the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver within the next few days, said Bob Eye, the attorney representing the opponents.

“There was really no hesitation by any parties on our side of the case about taking up an appeal,” Eye said. “Our clients made a commitment early on to try to protect the wetlands. And that didn’t change because the court didn’t agree with our perspective.”

Joe Erskine, deputy secretary of transportation for the Kansas Department of Transportation, said the state agency wasn’t sur-

prised by the group’s appeal.

In early November, U.S. District Judge Kathryn Vratil issued a 59-page decision that affirmed the process used by the Federal Highway Administration to align an extension of the South Lawrence Traff icway along what would be 32nd Street.

The groups opposing construction of the road in the wetlands would like to see the road run south of the Baker Wetlands.

More than two years ago, they filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in an attempt to preserve the roughly 60 acres of wetlands the trafficway would consume.

U.S. REP. LYNN JENKINS, RIGHT, visits with Douglas County administrator Craig Weinaug during a tour of the Bioscience and Technology Business Center on Thursday.

Jenkins says she’s trying not to take sides in the politics of whether her 2nd District should continue to represent only the western half of Lawrence.

2 | BAGHDAD

Gunmen bomb Christian homes, kill 2 Militants attacked at least four Christian homes Thursday night with a combination of grenades and bombs, killing two people and sending fear into the already terrified tiny Christian community.

It was the first attack against the country’s Christian community since al-Qaida-linked militants last week threatened a wave of violence against them.

Christians went so far as to tone down their Christmas celebrations in what was a peaceful holiday, but the attacks Thursday night demonstrated the intent of militants to keep up their deadly pressure on the Christian community.

In the deadliest attack, assailants in southwestern Baghdad threw two grenades inside the home of a Christian family, killing two people and injuring five more, police said.

In a different neighborhood in eastern Baghdad, militants planted a bomb near a Christian home. Two people were injured in that attack.

Then another bomb planted near a Christian house in western Baghdad exploded, injuring one member of the family as well as a civilian who was driving by, police said.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski has been certified the winner of Alaska’s Senate race following a nearly two-month legal battle.

State officials on Thursday signed paperwork making her win over GOP rival Joe Miller official.

Murkowski becomes the first U.S. Senate candidate since Strom Thurmond in 1954 to win with a write-in campaign. Murkowski will be sworn in when Congress begins its new term next week.

Miller won the primary in August, prompting Murkowski to run for re-election as a write-in.

Miller then sued the state over its handling of the race as Murkowski toppled him in the general election.

Three courts upheld election results favoring Murkowski, with a federal judge on Tuesday lifting a stay on certification that he’d imposed to give the courts time to rule on Miller’s claims.

4 | MOSCOW

Oil tycoon to be in prison until 2017 Jailed oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky was sentenced to six more years in prison Thursday following a trial seen as payback for his defiance of Vladimir Putin and as a test of the rule of law in Russia.

The ruling drew immediate condemnation from the U.S. and European governments, who called it evidence of the use of Russia’s judicial system for political ends.

Khodorkovsky’s mother cursed the judge when the sentence was read and said it was clear that he had come under strong pressure and could not have written the “nonsense that he read today.”

Putin, now prime minister, has been seen as the driving force behind the unrelenting legal attack on Khodorkovsky, who challenged him early in his presidency. As Putin considers a return to the presidency in 2012, he appears unwilling to risk the possibility that a freed Khodorkovsky could help lead his political foes.

U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins knows she’s caught in the middle of a redistricting plan that will send about 50,000 Kansas voters into new Congressional districts.

But don’t ask her to take sides.

Jenkins, R-Kan., isn’t about to speak up about the potential repercussions — for herself, for Lawrence, for her party’s new majority in the House — resulting from what promises to be a political decision: whether her 2nd District should continue to represent only the western half of Lawrence, or instead be shifted to cover the entire city or include none at all.

“I really have no idea,” Jenkins said, after visiting with about two dozen attendees of a Kiwanis luncheon meeting Thursday at Lawrence Country Club. “I trust the lawmakers will figure it out. … (And) I don’t think it’s appropriate for

— U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins me to engage the lawmakers, as it is for me to encourage my constituents to engage the lawmakers.”

The political stakes aren’t exactly small, given Lawrence’s strength as a Democratic stronghold. This past November, only one precinct in Lawrence — one already in Jenkins’ district — voted in favor of Republican U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback for governor, a race that Brownback ended up winning handily statewide.

Jenkins’ 2nd District bisects two districts widely regarded as needing changes: the 1st, whose land area must expand in western Kansas because of dwindling population, and the 3rd, whose area will be expected to decline because of population growth in Johnson, Wyandotte and Douglas counties.

Jenkins emphasized that she would much prefer to see her district — which stretches from Nebraska to Oklahoma, and includes Topeka, Manhattan, Pittsburg, Fort Leavenworth, Fort Riley and other population centers — “stay exactly the same.”

“There’s a case to be made” to keep her district, which includes Kansas University’s West Campus, together with communities that include Washburn, Kansas State, Pittsburg State and Baker universities.

Then again, she concedes that “we’re going to get shoved

This winter break, while students and faculty have mostly fled Mount Oread, Kansas University officials are using all the empty space to prepare a small group of international scholars for an extended stay in the United States.

It’s part of an initiative called the Junior Faculty Development Program, and KU has been preparing forKANSAS eign teachers UNIVERSITY and researchers for the program for six years now.

The U.S. Department of State funds the program.

The professors’ specialties are varied, ranging from business administration to linguistics to sociology. After spending a few weeks at KU, the professors will disperse to a variety of universities across the country, where they’ll work in their own fields.

All told, they’ll be in the country for only a few months.

“It’s the chance of a lifetime,” said Margaret Coffey, associate director of KU’s Applied English Center, which is helping organize part of the program.

While here, the 18 professors are honing their English language skills, learning about American culture and absorbing parts of the higher education system in America to take back to their home countries.

They’ll be joined by nearly 60 more professors from abroad at KU in the beginning of January to undergo more preparation before they are sent to their respective universities to study.

The program, Coffey said, is quite competitive, so the professors chosen to participate are

Tax collections $22M short this month

TOPEKA — Kansas collected $22 million less in taxes than expected this month, which will complicate efforts by Gov.-elect Sam Brownback and legislators to keep the state’s budget balanced.

The state Department of Revenue reported Thursday that tax collections came to $489 million during December, or about 4 percent lower than the $511 million projected for the month. The most significant shortfall was in corporate income tax collections, which were about half of what the state anticipated.

Legislative researchers already had projected that the gap between anticipated revenues and existing spending commitments was approaching $500 million for the fiscal year beginning July 1. They’re expected to update their figure next week, and it’s likely to grow well beyond $500 million, with revenue shortfalls in this fiscal year expected to ripple into the next one.

“This is still a very fragile

budget,” said state Senate Majority Leader Jay Emler, a Lindsborg Republican who just finished two years as chairman of the budget-writing Ways and Means Committee. “It is not good news, but it also is not terribly unexpected.”

From the start of the current f iscal year on July 1 through November, tax collections had almost matched revenue projections, leading outgoing Democratic Gov. Mark Parkinson to declare that the state’s finances were stable. But with December’s shortfall, tax collections for the entire fiscal year, at $2.6 billion, are $23 million short of expectations.

Brownback, a Republican, takes office Jan. 10, the same day the GOP-dominated Legislature opens its annual session. There’s been no talk of increasing taxes, partly because Brownback has promised to avoid it, but also because Parkinson persuaded lawmakers to increase the state sales tax earlier this year.

“The drop in revenues is a reminder that our state’s economy is still very

volatile,” said Brownback spokeswoman Sherriene Jones-Sontag. “Expanding businesses and getting more Kansans working again will strengthen our state’s economy and stabilize revenues so we can fund our state’s core responsibilities.”

The state is facing a projected budget shortfall for the next f iscal year largely because it’s been using federal economic stimulus funds to prop up aid to public schools and social service programs, and those dollars are expected to disappear.

The state’s largest source of ongoing revenue is individual income taxes, and there the numbers have been good, with collections running ahead of expectations after December. Sales tax revenues generally are meeting expectations.

But the state had expected to collect $60 million in corporate income taxes in December and took in a little more than $30 million. Officials said Thursday that perhaps companies that had made healthy estimated tax payments in the past few

quarters — keeping revenues in line with expectations — adjusted their payments so they wouldn’t pay too much for the year.

“Maybe things are slowing down slightly this quarter, compared to previous quarters,” said Alan Conroy, director of the Legislature’s research staff.

State illegal immigration crackdown likely

ing to keep illegal immigrants out and to discourage businesses from hiring them. One of the top legal minds in that movement is about to take office as Kansas’ secretary of state, and he said he’s ready to advise lawmakers.

But strong opposition is expected from the state’s business community, particularly the Kansas Chamber of Commerce. Gov.-elect Sam Brownback also is cool to sweeping immigration proposals, preferring to focus on the state’s budget woes and creating jobs.

The chamber’s resistance creates an odd political dynamic in a Republicanleaning state with large GOP majorities in its Legislature and, soon, no Democrats in statewide elective office.

Some legislators advocating the low-tax, small-govern-

ment agenda favored by the chamber will be fighting the state’s largest business group on immigration.

So far, the Kobach state chamber has prevailed. But advocates of get-tough measures like those instituted in Arizona believe they’re tapping into national frustration with federal inaction and expect pressure to build on the Legislature after it opens its annual session and Brownback is sworn in Jan. 10.

“A few interest groups who are plugged into the legislative process can derail something,” said Secretary of State-elect Kris Kobach, a law professor on leave who’s gained national attention for working on immigration issues with legislators in other states. “But ultimately, I think you find that, in end, if the people of a state really

want a statute, it eventually happens.”

The Kansas Chamber has focused its opposition on proposals requiring employers to verify that workers are in the U.S. legally and fining companies or taking away their licenses if they hire illegal immigrants.

Chamber officials argue those laws can impose draconian punishments for unintentional mistakes. Kent Beisner, the Kansas Chamber’s president and chief executive officer, also said if Kansas enacts rules and other states don’t, Kansas will find it harder to attract and keep businesses.

“We want to be as competitive as we can be,” Beisner said.

Many legislators saw the chamber as a big reason why Kansas’ last attempt to enact a sweeping immigration law that included penalties for employers failed in 2008. The House and Senate were negotiating a final version but couldn’t agree.

around� in the upcoming redistricting debates in Topeka, expected to play out during the 2011 legislative session and perhaps extend into 2012.

She’s a Republican and will have Republicans serving on both sides of her district.

Something’s gotta give. “There will be a (new) map for every day of the year,� said Jenkins, who herself had been a state senator back in the early 1990s for the last round of redistricting. “I know politics plays into that, but at the end of the day there has to be judicial oversight.�

Lawrence Mayor Mike Amyx also recalls those previous redistricting rounds, back when the Lawrence City Commission lobbied unsuccessfully to keep all of Lawrence in one district, and one district only. “I believe we’re going to see one district this time,� he said Thursday. “Is that good for the

community? Absolutely. The ‘one representative’ is something I’ve always been supportive of, and I think makes sense. Rather than having to deal with multiple people, we deal with one.�

Amyx, of course, declined to say whether Lawrence should shift completely into the 2nd District with Jenkins, or move entirely into the area covered by Rep.-elect Kevin Yoder, also a Republican. No sense wading into those political waters until absolutely necessary.

Jenkins, for her part, rests assured that the coming changes will follow the law, although she’d welcome a novel approach for keeping her district intact. “It has to be contiguous,� she said, of district boundaries, “unless we want to take some of Nebraska, which they might want to give us.� — Schools reporter Mark Fagan can be reached at 832-7188.

BRIEFLY Trash collector dies after being run over Leavenworth County sheriff’s officers said a trash collector died Wednesday after being run over by a trash truck.

A Honey Creek Disposal truck driven by Kevin W. Colon, 26, Eudora, was backing into a driveway to pick up trash from a rural Lawrence home when he ran over another employee who was lying on the ground, according to Leavenworth County Undersheriff Schonhoff Ron Cranor.

Cranor said officials presume that the employee, Timothy E. Schonhoff, 24, hopped out of the cab and was walking on the side of the truck when he slipped and fell to the ground. Schonhoff, who officials said was living in Lawrence at the time of his death, died at the scene.

The accident occurred in the 26000 block of Ninth Street, which is about 2.5 miles north and one mile east of Lawrence

Municipal Airport. The residence has a Lawrence mailing address.

The property is very close to the Leavenworth County-Jefferson County line, but the property owner identified the site of the accident as being in Leavenworth County, Cranor said.

The Lawrence school board formed the task force back in May, after having cut $4.6 million from its budget for the coming year. Board members set the end of January as their deadline for receiving a report.

Elementary task force to meet Monday night

GLOBE

Efforts to come up with a consensus community vision for the future of Lawrence’s public elementary schools are moving closer to completion.

Members of the Lawrence Elementary School Facility Vision Task Force are scheduled to gather at 7 p.m. Monday at Lawrence school district headquarters, 110 McDonald Drive.

Their goal: come up with a plan that balances the district’s wants and needs — regarding maintenance and construction projects, financial efficiencies, operational goals and neighborhood interests — against potentially grim financial realities, ones district officials know will arise in the weeks and months ahead.

highway. KDOT is about halfway through the design plans and survey work. State money to build the $188 million South Lawrence Trafficway won’t become available until 2013.

If the appeal process were to last longer than expected, Erskine said, KDOT has agreed to hold off construction until the court process is finished.

At a Thursday morning session in which they covered stereotypes — both of Americans and of people in their own countries — the professors seemed quite taken with the United States and the Lawrence community. “We got informed on so many things,� said Gulnamo Dustambaeva, an English teacher from Tajikistan. “It’s very useful. We want to use it when we are going back to our country.�

The group raved about the food in Lawrence and said the people in the Midwest were friendly. “People in central Asia can be a little ...� one professor began, pausing to find the right word. “Rude,� another finished.

Several of them expressed amazement at Internet availability — you can even get it in coffee shops, one person pointed out. And Dustambaeva was particularly taken with the library system on campus, especially with the Spencer Research Library’s collection of rare and old books.

It was clear the professors were intent on making the most of their opportunity, and all appreciated the opportunity given to them. Nana Gogokhia, of Georgia, said she hoped to create a network of contacts while in the U.S. to use to exchange information in the future. “Our education system is not as developed as Americans’,� said Aigul Yessengaliyeva, a sociology teacher from Kazakhstan, so she’s been absorbing as much information as possible on the incorporation of technology into the classroom. “I like all of this very much.� — Higher education reporter Andy Hyland can be reached at 832-6388.

the wetlands have ecological, educational, cultural, recreational and spiritual benefits to the community, which would be lost if a highway were constructed. The roadway would impact all of the wetlands, not just the acres KDOT would use for right-of-way, Eye said.

KU Environs and EcoJustice.

In her ruling, Vratil said the Federal Highway Administration in its environmental impact statement “properly considered� the impacts of traffic and safety, flooding and increased development as well as the effect the alignment would have on Haskell Farm.

However, Vratil said the federal agency incorrectly estimated that a 32nd Street alignment would cost less than a route that would run farther south and align with what is

U.S. helping Ukraine send uranium to Russia

By Desmond Butler Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — In a secret operation to secure nuclear material, the United States has helped Ukraine send to Russia enough uranium to build two atomic bombs.

This week’s removal of more than 110 pounds of highly enriched uranium followed a pledge by Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych to get rid of all of his country’s highly enriched uranium by April 2012. The material will be blended down in Russia, rendering it useless for bomb making.

Details of the operation were provided to The Associated Press by the National Nuclear Safety Administration.

Yanukovych agreed to give

up the uranium in a deal announced at a nuclear security summit hosted by President Barack Obama in April.

As an incentive, the United States is providing replacement low-enriched uranium that can be used for Ukraine’s research reactors.

The summit deal also has the United States building a $25 million “neutron source facility” nuclear research project for Ukraine, the administration said. The facility will be able to produce 50 different types of medical isotopes, using only low-enriched uranium.

The U.S. nuclear administration’s chief, Thomas D’Agostino, called the uranium removal operation an important step toward Obama’s goal of securing the world’s nuclear material

within four years. He praised Ukraine for helping ensure its bomb-making material would not fall “into the wrong hands.”

Ukraine gave a major boost to arms control in 1994 when it agreed to surrender the nuclear weapons it inherited after the Soviet Union’s collapse.

The removal operation completed Thursday involved 21 specially designed casks for the uranium to be flown on five flights from three cities.

The operation was delayed for days by ice storms in Ukraine.

The U.S. also helped deliver some of the replacement fuel to Ukraine.

“This may have been the most complicated operation NNSA has done in recent years,” said Andrew Bieniawski, the U.S. agency’s asso-

Braving Eastern Kansas’ stickiest cinema floors since 2004.

ciate deputy administrator for global threat reduction.

The uranium came from three research facilities, in Kiev, Sevastopol and Kharkiv.

The U.S. also helped Ukraine remove a slightly larger amount of spent uranium by rail in May. An additional amount of uranium remains in Ukraine, but the U.S. said the material was on track to be removed by the April 2012 deadline.

About 3.5 million pounds of highly enriched uranium and half a million pounds of bomb-grade plutonium remain in the world, according to Harvard University’s Belfer Center. That material could be used to build as many as 200,000 nuclear weapons, or about 8 1/2 times the world’s current stockpile of 23,360 warheads.

Kidney parole situation raises concerns

By Holbrook Mohr Associated Press Writer

JACKSON, MISS. — A debate is unfolding over an unusual offer from Mississippi’s governor: He will free two sisters imprisoned for an armed robbery that netted $11, but one woman’s release requires her to donate her kidney to the other.

The condition is alarming some experts, who have raised legal and ethical questions. Among them: If it turns out the sisters aren’t a good tissue match, does that mean the healthy one goes back to jail?

Gov. Haley Barbour ’s decision to suspend the life sentences of Jamie and Gladys Scott was applauded by civil rights organizations and the women’s attorney,

Rogelio V. Solis/AP Photo

SUPPORTERS OF GLADYS AND JAMIE SCOTT call for the release of the two sisters who are serving life sentences for a robbery that netted $11 in this Sept. 15 photo in Jackson, Miss. who have long said the sentences were too harsh for the crime.

The sisters are black, and their case has been a cause celebre in the state’s AfricanAmerican community.

The Scotts were convicted in 1994 of leading two

men into an ambush in central Mississippi the year before. Three teenagers hit each man in the head with a shotgun and took their wallets — making off with only $11 , the sisters’ attorney said.

After 16 years in prison, Jamie Scott, 36, is on daily dialysis, which officials say costs the state about $200,000 a year.

Barbour agreed to release her because of her medical condition, but 38-year-old Gladys Scott’s release order says one of the conditions she must meet is to donate the kidney within one year.

The idea to donate the kidney was Gladys Scott’s and she volunteered to do it in her petition for early release.

National NAACP President and CEO B enjamin

Todd Jealous thanked Barbour on Thursday after meeting him at the state capital in Jackson, calling his decision “a shining example” of the way a governor should use the power of clemency.

Others aren’t so sure.

Arthur Caplan, the director of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania, has studied transplants and their legal and ethical ramifications for about 25 years. He said he’s never heard of anything like this.

Even though Gladys Scott proposed the idea in her petition for an early release and volunteered to donate the organ, Caplan said, it is against the law to buy and sell organs or to force people to give one up.

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

Notable ● People are starting to buy homes again, lifting a battered industry that is bracing for its worst sales year in more than a decade.

Signed contracts to purchase homes rose in November, the fourth increase in five months.

Economists cautioned a major reason for the jump is that people are buying foreclosed homes, which sell at steep discounts and weigh on the broader market. Another obstacle is the spike in the 30-year fixed mortgage rate, which weeks ago had fallen to a 40-year low.

Thursday’s markets Dow Industrials —15.67, 11,569.71 Nasdaq —3.95, 2,662.98 S&P 500 —1.90, 1,257.88 30-Year Treasury +0.02, 4.43% Corn (Chicago) —8 cents, $6.16 Soybeans (Chicago) —1 cent, $13.76 Wheat (Kansas City) —14.25 cents, $8.44 Oil (New York) —$1.28, $89.84 DILBERT

Job market showing healthier signs for 2011

By Paul Wiseman Associated Press Writer

W A S H I N G T O N — Far fewer people are applying for unemployment benefits as the year ends, raising hopes for a healthier job market in 2011.

Applications are at their lowest level since July 2008, the Labor Department says.

They fell to 388,000 in the week ending Dec. 25, bringing the four-week average to 414,000. Until mid-October, the four-week average had been stuck above 450,000 most of the year.

Economists say the number of people applying for unemployment benefits predicts where the job market will go over the next few months — so much so that they use this data to help forecast economic growth.

“We’re starting to see a pickup in job growth,” says Conference Board economist Kenneth Goldstein. “We may even get to a point, conceivably by spring, where the consumer is going to say that it no longer feels like we’re still in a recession.” He expects the economy to generate 100,000 to 150,000 jobs

a month by spring, up from an average 86,500 a month in 2010.

That’s an improvement, but still not enough to cause big drop in the unemployment rate. To Paul Kasriel, chief economist at Northern Trust, fewer people applying for unemployment benefits suggests the unemployment rate will slip from 9.8 percent in November to 9.7 percent early next year; that would mean about 150,000 fewer unemployed.

The Conference Board’s Goldstein says the unemployment rate might actually rise for a few months as an increase in job openings lures even more job seekers back into the labor market. He doesn’t expect the unemployment rate to start dropping until mid-2011 and says it will finish the year above 9 percent.

The good news is that layoffs have fallen back to prerecession levels. In October, 1.7 million people were laid off or fired — the lowest figure since August 2006, more than a year before the Great Recession started. Layoffs and dismissals peaked at 2.6 million in January 2009.

EDITORIALS

Changes ahead Political shifts and other factors almost guarantee that people in the United States, Kansas and Lawrence will be changing more than their calendars this year.

A

t midnight today, it will be out with the old and in with the new. Celebrating the new year is a largely symbolic gesture, but it’s also a time to mentally put the past behind us and start anew.

More than some years, 2011 looks to be about change. November elections certainly guaranteed change in the federal government and many statehouses. In January, many longtime members of Congress will step aside — either by their own choice or that of the constituents in their districts. Leadership positions in the U.S. House will change hands, and the Obama administration will have to change the way it does business with the legislative branch.

If this shift leads to more compromise and a sharper focus on making decisions, even tough decisions, based on what is best for the country, it could be a change for the better. If it intensifies the focus on scoring political points or blocking any action that might make the opposing party look good, it also could be a change for the worse.

Kansas also is expecting significant change in its state government. November elections produced a major sweep of state offices by Republicans, along with a stronger GOP majority in the Kansas House. Change certainly seems to be on the horizon, but how great that change will be is uncertain. It seems unlikely that the most conservative Republican legislators will be able to change as many things as they want, but their battle will be more with other members of their party — those in the Senate and perhaps the new governor — rather than with the tiny Democratic minority.

Both higher education and K-12 schools in Kansas have little to look forward to in the coming year when it comes to state funding, but there may be some other bright spots.

Kansas University is on the verge of hiring people in a number of game-changing positions: several deans and the important athletic director’s job. Supporters of KU and higher education in Kansas all should hope that the people hired for those jobs will lead the university in a dynamic and positive direction.

The Lawrence school district also is looking at significant change next fall when it moves ninth-graders into the high schools and transforms its junior highs into middle schools for sixth through eighth grades. School officials are working hard to make that a positive change.

Decisions made this year also may affect the future of several district elementary schools. A community task force has undertaken a very positive process to help guide the future of elementary schools, but if its members conclude that certain schools need to be combined or closed, it will be hard for some in the community to see that as anything but a negative.

Other changes surely are on the horizon.

Some positive changes we’d like to see are a decline in national unemployment and an increase in new business activity in Lawrence.

The city is expected to fill the important post of police chief soon, and city and county officials have the development of the former Farmland property to look forward to.

Change is inevitable. The struggling U.S. economy has made the last couple of years not so bright for many Americans. As we close the door on 2010, we hope that 2011 will bring many changes for the better for the nation, the state and everyone here in Lawrence.

Happy New Year!

Variables temper Petraeus’ optimism KABUL, AFGHANISTAN — If briefings could win wars, Gen. David Petraeus would already be finished in Afghanistan. Here’s what his masterful presentation looked like in Kabul this month — and then some hard questions for him to answer.

The general’s aides come in first, carrying six wooden easels as if they’re setting up an art display. Next come the charts, four feet tall, displaying an array of information as densely woven as a spider’s web. And then into the room sweeps Petraeus, greeting his audience in a manner at once genial and pugnacious.

I’ve seen Petraeus give many briefings over the years, and it’s a bit like watching a magician at work. Even though you’ve seen the trick before, and you know the patter, you still get mesmerized. He has the ability to make people believe the impossible might be doable, after all. He pulled it off in Iraq, and it’s just possible he’s on his way again in Afghanistan. But this time it will be a stretch.

The Afghanistan campaign plan, in classic Petraeus fashion, comes at the problem from every direction: It’s top-down, in building the Afghan army, and bottomup in training tribal militias known as Afghan Local Police.

It’s about military power, especially the deadly night raids by U.S. Special Operations Forces, and it’s also about making governance work in this corrupt and feeble country.

David Ignatius davidignatius@washpost.com

shows that “threeHistory variables are crucial in countering an insurgency — a real process of reconciliation; no safe havens for the enemy; and a competent host government. None are present in Afghanistan.”

The most interesting chart in Petraeus’ recent briefing was one called “Village Stability Operations,” which showed how Special Forces teams are securing the remote mountain valleys north of Helmand province. Over the course of this year, the U.S. has found local pockets where the village elders resented the Taliban — and sent in the Green Berets to organize local resistance.

The campaign plan is so dispersed that it’s easy to miss what’s happening. There’s no big “battle of Kandahar,” for exam-

ple. Instead, U.S. soldiers are clearing the Taliban-infested belts around the city and establishing scores of little combat outposts with Afghan forces. The idea is to keep expanding these “security bubbles” until the Taliban are driven from the population centers.

Like any war, this one is ultimately about willpower, and America has an advantage in Petraeus, one of the strongestwilled people you could hope to meet. But this winner’s psyche is not sufficient. History shows that three variables are crucial in countering an insurgency — a real process of reconciliation; no safe havens for the enemy; and a competent host government.

None are present in Afghanistan.

So here are a few questions for Petraeus to ponder at year-end.

I’ve collected them from strategists inside and outside the government who hope for success, but worry that time is short: ● How can the U.S. create more incentives for the Afghan government to take control? Is there some way to create a “ratchet effect” so that every time the Afghans muster another 10,000 troops — and the U.S. takes out a like number — there’s a palpable benefit that Afghans can feel? ● How can the U.S. make “reconciliation and reintegration” move faster? Who can drive the process with the manipulative passion of a Henry Kissinger?

(Petraeus could fit that bill, actu-

ally.) Should the preconditions for Taliban participation be altered? ● How can the Pakistan angle be squared? Can we involve the Pakistanis more directly in reconciliation efforts? Should we take their advice and negotiate with their friends in the Haqqani network? Can we divert some of the $100 billion annual budget for Afghanistan to buy peace in the tribal areas? ● How can the CIA be used better? The Afghan War began as a CIA paramilitary action. Maybe it should end that way, too. Pakistani officials say they have allowed the CIA to open a new base in Quetta. Can more joint U.S.-Pakistani covert operations be launched in Baluchistan and the tribal areas? ● How can the U.S. deal better, behind the scenes, with the puzzle of Afghan President Hamid Karzai? Should we squeeze him?

Ignore him? Dump him?

Petraeus’ campaign plan, to use a simple analogy, is the equivalent of mending a broken old chair — gluing it back together and holding it in place with a series of clamps. But nobody can say how long the U.S. “clamps” will remain in place, how long it will take the “glue” of transition to dry, or how rotten is the Afghan “wood.” Those are the uncertain variables that Petraeus must hedge against, even as he keeps pushing for success.

Table is set for tax compromise

By William McKenzie The Dallas Morning News

The good news heading into 2011 is that leaders in both parties seem genuinely interested in overhauling our tax code. President Barack Obama brought it up during a recent National Public Radio interview. New House Ways and Means Committee chair Dave Camp went on NPR a few days later to talk about the same thing.

So there’s genuine buzz — even bipartisan buzz.

But a fault line is developing, too. There are those, like the president, who believe any overhaul also should increase tax revenue, presumably to offset the deficit and debt. And there are those like Camp, a Republican, who want any tax overhaul to be “revenue neutral.” His crowd fears the extra revenues would only be spent.

Both positions actually are reasonable.

Let’s start with the Obama side: If we are ever to beat back the $1.3 trillion deficit and nearly $14 trillion in federal debt, taxes must be part of the equation. Not the major part, mind you — more like a quarter of the answer, as former Comptroller General David Walker has suggested. But taxes belong in the mix, as the president’s debt panel pointed out last month in outlining its solutions for ending our addiction to red ink.

If we leave tax revenues out of the answer, we can’t raise enough through spending cuts to seriously drill down on both problems.

“

So, in looking at this dividing line, here’s my strategy: Let’s have a deficit/debt reduction plan that puts many of the spending cuts up front say, in the first five years, if the economy is strong enough to absorb them.”

Or, put it this way: We can’t reduce the deficit and the debt with spending cuts alone, not without gutting what many people consider essential functions of government. (Apologies here to libertarian Ron Paul, but most Americans don’t share his concept of limited government. We may gripe about Washington spending too much, but we don’t want to touch programs we like.)

I’m on Obama’s side of the divide, although I don’t know how much more money he envisions raising through tax reform. If it’s much beyond 25 percent of our deficit/debt goal, I’m not enthusiastic. But his point is legitimate.

But let’s look at the Camp side: He, too, has a point. When it comes to deficit reduction, taxes almost always go up before we get to spending cuts.

Recall the 1993 deficit battle under President Bill Clinton.

Delaying spending cuts was a major issue during the debate over Congress’ deficit package. Critics argued the measure postponed hard spending choices until after

tax hikes went into effect.

Of course, there is any number of examples of Capitol Hill delaying painful change, largely because many Americans don’t like changing our ways. If nothing else, most legislators know how to read the will of the people, for whom pain isn’t high on their list.

So, in looking at this dividing line, here’s my strategy: Let’s have a deficit/debt reduction plan that puts many of the spending cuts up front say, in the first five years, if the economy is strong enough to absorb them. Then, let’s have a tax overhaul that leads to fewer and lower rates for individuals and businesses. Let’s also have only a handful of exemptions, such as for charitable giving. And let’s have that overhaul produce a net tax hike that would take care of about 25 percent of our deficit/debt reduction goal.

Will this happen?

Not without a lot of blood being spilled, much as we saw with the recent tax-cut compromise. Getting rid of tax perks many of us enjoy, like eliminating or capping the mortgage interest deduction, won’t be easy. But the compromise top Democrats and Republican reached before Christmas shows they at least can work together.

Here, then, is hoping for more blood and a smart tax code/spending cut compromise — in 2011.

The table is set, if only we can find a way past this dividing line.

From the Lawrence Daily World for Dec. 31, 1910: YEARS “Harold Wilson, a AGO junior electrical IN 1910 engineer in the University, was assisting Roy Spear, a senior engineer, in the collection of data for a thesis.

The two boys had been visiting a manhole at the corner of Lee and Kentucky every hour for the purpose of taking a sample of the sewerage water and measuring its rate of flow. On the midnight trip Wilson went alone, while Spear worked out an unfinished experiment. Wilson carried a lantern to illuminate the interior of the sewer. Eight or ten feet below the level of the street, the lantern became extinguished.

Wilson struck a match to relight it — a thing which both the boys had done before that evening. Immediately an explosion of sewer gas occurred, which hurled him forcibly against the rocky sides of the manhole. With flames enveloping his body, he fought to climb to the surface. He finally escaped from the narrow circular furnace of fire, before overcome by gas, but not until his face, hands, and body had been cruelly burned. Today he is resting comfortably and no serious results are anticipated.”

Sex offender escapes from state hospital LARNED — A man convicted of sex crimes against children is on the run after escaping from the Larned State Hospital.

Hospital spokesman Cory Turner said that 41-year-old Bruce Franklin Burns escaped during a Wednesday afternoon sexual predator treatment program.

Pawnee County authorities said the search for Burns continued Thursday.

Burns Burns is 5foot-10 male of American Indian descent, with brown eyes, long brown hair and facial hair. He was last seen wearing a navy blue jacket, khaki pants, black shoes and a navy blue ski cap.

The Hutchinson News reported that Burns was sent to Larned after serving prison terms for the 1997 crimes of aggravated criminal sodomy of a child under the age of 14 and aggravated indecent liberties with a child under the age of 14.

State officials warned that any individual on escaped status should be considered potentially dangerous.

Educated guesses necessary

Careless win

Kansas’ Taylor shaking off rust

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kathy Vogel Kuettner, a beautiful young wife and mother of three, died from lymphoma in July 2000, and a year later, Kathy’s House, a hospital hospitality house, was born in Milwaukee.

During one of my stays at Kathy’s House with my late brother John, in July 2005, we viewed a replay of Rafael Palmeiro looking right at Congress interrogators in March of that year and saying, “I have never used steroids, period. I don’t know how to say it any more clearly than that.”

My brother said, “Boy, either he’s a great actor or he never took steroids.”

“He’s a great actor,” I said, drawing the last loud laugh I remember getting out of him.

I explained that years earlier a few ballplayers, talking to me on background, had pointed to Palmeiro as an example that showed not every steroid user had Popeye forearms. I didn’t write it then because there was no proof, but I believed it. The proof came a couple of weeks after my stay at Kathy’s House when Palmeiro flunked a steroid test.

Palmeiro blamed it then on a contaminated needle from his Vitamin B 12 shots. Stop laughing. He really said that. Even funnier, he maintains that.

“I was telling the truth then, and I am telling the truth now,” Palmeiro told SI.com earlier this week. “I don’t know what else I can say. I have never taken steroids.”

For the first time, Palmeiro, just a four-time All-Star, is on the Hall of Fame ballot, due to be mailed today.

I covered the Orioles beat for the Baltimore Sun in 1994 and Palmeiro was always there at his locker for an interview before and after every game. Friendly guy. The little square box next to his name on the ballot I’ll mail today will remain unchecked, despite his 3,020 hits and 569 home runs.

Henrickson not happy with 21 turnovers

A dusting of snow on Christmas Day is generally a good thing ... buckets upon buckets of the white stuff in conjunction with 40 to 50 mph wind gusts not so much.

“I’ve never seen that much snow in my life. I think we had up to 34 inches in my neighborhood,” Kansas University junior guard Tyshawn Taylor said.

Hoping for picturesque flurries during a short, Thursday night until Sunday morning Christmas vacation in Hoboken, N.J., Taylor instead confronted a late December blizzard. It’s a storm that delayed his return to KU’s campus to Tuesday night.

Taylor He missed four of KU’s five practices in advance of an 82-57 victory over University of Texas at Arlington on Wednesday night in Allen Fieldhouse.

“My neighborhood is kind of closed in, so all the snow that was pushed off the street was pushed on the sidewalk. It was crazy,” the 6-foot-3 combo guard said, adding, “I didn’t do anything (but stay in his aunt’s house). There were a lot of little kids outside playing in it. They had fun in it. I didn’t want to go out.”

Initially, Taylor was to have departed Newark Liberty International Airport for Kansas City International at 11 a.m., Sunday.

“I didn’t even go to the airport.

I called and my flight was canceled,” Taylor said. “They canceled the rest of the flights for that day. I made another one for the next day (Monday). It got canceled, too. I never left the house until I was actually getting on my plane (Tuesday).”

Even Tuesday’s fight plan was altered, despite the fact the bulk of the snow fell from Sunday night through Monday in New York and Jersey.

“My flight was at noon. It got pushed to 2:30,” Taylor said.

“When I got to the airport, I was about to check in and they said they moved my flight back to 12, something like that, so I missed that flight and had to get another one at 3. It was a rough couple days, confusing.

“I’m sure I’ve been through worse, but it was a weird situation for me missing all those practices. I was able to work out that (Tuesday) night and went to shootaround (before game Wednesday). That’s really it.

Then we played.”

A starter in KU’s first 11 games, Taylor came off the bench to score eight points (3-of-3 from field, 2-of-2 from line) and dish two assists against one turnover in 15 minutes against UT Arlington.

“In some spots I think I was,” Taylor said, asked if he was rusty.

“I think it will come back with practice.”

All things considered, Taylor said it was still worth making the trip to Jersey.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY

NU defends business deal with QB’s dad O MAHA , N EB . (AP ) — Nebraska athletic director Tom Osborne says there is nothing inappropriate about his department having a business agreement with the father of the Cornhuskers’ starting quarterback.

Casey Martinez of Corona, Calif., owns an apparel company known as Corn Fed. He signed a contract with Nebraska in June

2007 that entitles Nebraska to a 10 percent royalty on Corn Fed products bearing the Huskers’ logo.

The Los Angeles Times f irst reported the agreement.

Nebraska offered Martinez’s son, Taylor, a football scholarship in June 2008, and he signed his letter of intent in February 2009 without visiting another school.

NCAA spokesman Erik Chris-

NFL fines Jets $100,000 for trip NEW YORK — The NFL fined the New York Jets $100,000 on Thursday for violating league rules when assistant coach Sal Alosi tripped Miami’s Nolan Carroll on the sideline during a punt return earlier this month.

The Jets were punished because Alosi “placed players in a prohibited area on the sideline to impede an opposing team’s special teams players and gain a competitive advantage.” The NFL called it “a competitive violation as well as a dangerous tactic.”

NFL Favre has not passed test EDEN PRAIRIE, MINN. — At the end of a long, difficult season, Brett Favre’s status for the finale is in doubt.

STANFORD, CALIF. (AP) — Stanford really does have UConn’s number.

Top-ranked Connecticut’s record 90-game winning streak in women’s basketball ended Thursday night when No. 9 Stanford outplayed the Huskies from the start in a 7159 victory at Maples Pavilion — where the Cardinal have their own streak going.

Stanford hasn’t lost in 52 games at home. The Cardinal took an early 13-point lead, never trailed and didn’t let the mighty Huskies back in it after halftime in this one.

They kept pounding the ball inside and banging the boards.

UConn fans accustomed to watching coach Geno Auriemma’s team blow past opponents hadn’t seen a loss since the 2008 NCAA semifinals — Stanford got the Huskies that time, too, 82-73, in the Final Four at Tampa, Fla. “At some point reality had to set in, and today reality set in,” Auriemma said. “I’m not destroyed about it. Winning that many games in a row, it’s unheard of.”

These teams have a bit of a history. Last season, Stanford almost beat Maya Moore and UConn in the national championship game before losing 53-47.

That the Cardinal won in the rematch shouldn’t have been a total surprise.

Stanford was unbeatable at home, had given the Huskies fits in past meetings, and UConn came close to losing to then-No. 2 Baylor last month.

Jeanette Pohlen hit five three-pointers on the way to a career-high 31 points for the Cardinal (9-2). Moore couldn’t find a rhythm until it was too late, held to 14 points on 5of-15 shooting.

“I thought we let it get away from us,” Auriemma said. “I think the atmosphere and what was going on and when Maya couldn’t get going early.

I think it affected the rest of our guys. We just didn’t play like ourselves. Give credit to Stanford. I think they played an unbelievably good game.”

Last week, the Huskies (121) topped the 88-game winning streak set by John Wooden’s UCLA men’s team from 1971-74 by beating No. 22 Florida State 93-62, then won their 90th in a row this week at Pacific.

“When you see what happens tonight and how it happened, I think you can appreciate it even more what it took to get to that point and how many things can go wrong and how you can have bad nights,” Auriemma said.

He said such a winning streak requires good players, luck and “that all your best players have to play great every night. And we didn’t get that tonight.”

Berglund expected to arrive early Rivals.com’s Jon Kirby reported Thursday that prep quarterback Brock Berglund, a senior at Valor Christian High in Highlands Ranch, Colo., will graduate early and arrive at KU for the start of the second semester on Jan. 21.

The three-star QB who originally committed to Col-

orado but switched his commitment to Kansas on Dec. 20, guided his high school team to a state title earlier this month and passed for 2,174 yards and ran for 945 more during his senior season.

Rivals ranks Berglund, 6-4, 205, as the 13th best dualthreat QB in the Class of 2011.

He chose Kansas over Boise State, Colorado, Colorado State, Duke, Kansas State, San Diego State, Tulsa, Utah,

Recruiting: Ben McLemore, a 6-5 senior guard from Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Va., is making unofficial trips to his finalists, KU and Missouri, over holiday break, Rivals.com reports.

McLemore attended the MU-

KU women win “We’ve got to create some offense from our defense because we’re not going to be able to sit in a half-court offense in this league and put 80 up on the board. That’s just not going to happen. Nobody does that in our league.”

Goodrich agreed with Henrickson and saw ties between the lapses on defense and the lackadaisical care of the basketball, insisting that going forward, KU won’t be taking any plays off.

“It’s an effort thing,” Goodrich said. “And I think we’ve been really loose on that part.”

The stretches where the Jayhawks (12-1) played well, though, were more than enough to easily take down the Mavericks (3-9).

Sophomore Carolyn Davis, in her customary efficient fashion, led the way with 26 points (10-of-14 shooting) and 12 rebounds, good for her second double-double of the season.

Mays added 13 points and four assists, junior Aishah Sutherland chipped in with seven points and 13 rebounds and sophomore Monica Engelman tallied 11 points.

“We have to get to a (point) where we’re consistent throughout the whole game and not have so many spurts, and just continue to play and not take off,” Goodrich said.

As the Jayhawks close out their non-conference schedule on Monday against UMKC at Allen Fieldhouse, Henrickson and company aim to shake off Thursday’s uncharacteristically loose performance.

“We’ve practiced better than that,” Henrickson said.

“It’s not like we’ve been that sloppy and that bad.”

“I mean, I got to see my family,” Taylor said. “It was good in that way. I wish I could have gotten back a couple of days earlier, but I just couldn’t.”

Sophomore Elijah Johnson and freshman Josh Selby started their first games of the season at guard, while Tyrel Reed opened for the 12th straight game on the perimeter as well. Johnson scored 11 points off 4-of-5 shooting and dished five assists. Selby went 1-of-9 from the field, good for two points (with two assists).

Reed hit one of seven shots and scored three points with four rebounds.

“I think Elijah played well.

He played solid. I think he ran the team well and played well,” Taylor said. “Josh just missed shots. I think he did a lot of things well. He attacked.

He was aggressive.”

Daniels’ top three schools in no particular order are KU, Kentucky and Texas, AAU coach Dinos Trigonis tells Zagsblog, noting Daniels could make an announcement “around Jan. 1.” ... Shooting guard Jelan Kendrick, who was kicked off Memphis’ team in January, has decided to transfer to Mississippi. He had listed West Virginia, Georgia Tech and KU in interviews as possible destinations.

“Right now, Kansas is at the top of my list,” Scheu said. “I can definitely see myself playing at Kansas next year.”

Scheu lived in Kansas City from third grade on before moving to Evansville after his freshman year of high school.

As a freshman, Scheu lived in Overland Park and attended Rockhurst High.

Scheu’s other offers have come from Ball State, Miami (Ohio) and Western Michigan.

SYRACUSE DEFENSIVE END BRANDON SHARPE (91) TRIES TO STOP Kansas State running back Daniel Thomas (8) as defensive end Chandler Jones tackles Thomas in the second half. The Orange beat the Wildcats, 36-34, on Thursday in the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium.

BIG 12 FOOTBALL

Celebration penalty costly for K-State NEW YORK (AP) — The first Pinstripe Bowl turned into a home run derby, with Syracuse and Kansas State trading big plays and touchdowns in one of the most exciting games of this postseason.

A little too much enthusiasm, though, cost the Wildcats.

Delone Carter ran for career-high 198 yards and two touchdowns, Marcus Sales caught three long TD passes and Syracuse got some help from a celebration penalty on Kansas State to beat the Wildcats, 36-34, on Thursday at Yankee Stadium.

Adrian Hilburn slipped a tackle and raced to a 30-yard touchdown catch with 1:13 remaining to pull Kansas State within two.

Hilburn saluted the crowd behind the visitor’s dugout and was flagged 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct, which pushed the 2-point conversion attempt back to the 17-yard line.

“I didn’t see it, I heard he just did a salute, which is kind of bogus,” Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman said.

“It’s something you can’t do, we know that. Adrian is our guy, we’re not mad at him for it, but I thought it was a little bit of a bogus call.”

Coffman overthrew Aubrey Quarles in the end zone, and when Kansas State (7-6) couldn’t come up with the onside kick, Syracuse (8-5) only had to take a knee to win a bowl game for the first time since 2001.

Daniel Thomas ran for three touchdowns for Kansas State, which was making its first bowl appearance since 2006.

In a bowl season filled with blowouts so far, the first bowl game in New York in 48 years turned out to be a hit.

The teams traded long

gainers right from the start — Thomas went 51 yards for a score on the second play from scrimmage — and scored touchdowns on the first five second-half possessions.

Both teams pulled off successful flea-flickers, with Syracuse’s going for its first touchdown.

Kansas State coach Bill Snyder, sensing field goals would not be enough, called for a fake with 4:50 left in the fourth from the 11, but Syracuse stacked up Ryan Doerr on the run.

Snyder passed on commenting on the celebration penalty, instead blaming himself for the fake field goal.

“I went for the (fake) field goal, which in hindsight was not — wasn’t a good call,” he said.

Washington 19, No. 17 Nebraska 7 S AN D I E G O — Jake Locker bounced back from an injury and scored on a 25-yard run in the third quarter, and tailback Chris Polk ran for 177 yards and a score to help the Washington Huskies to a win over the listless Nebraska Cornhuskers in the Holiday Bowl.

The Huskies (7-6) avenged a 56-21 loss to the Huskers (104) in Seattle on Sept. 18. The Cornhuskers piled up 533 yards of total offense in that game, including 383 rushing.

While Washington was a winner in its first bowl game since 2002, the Huskers came out flat in their second straight Holiday Bowl appearance.

BOWL ROUNDUP

Tennessee loses in double OT, 30-27 The Associated Press

North Carolina 30, Tennessee 27 Casey Barth kicked a 23yard field goal in the second overtime to send North Carolina past Tennessee in a Music City Bowl that will be remembered much more for the crazy finish of regulation Thursday night.

Barth kicked a 39-yard field goal after officials reviewed what had been the final play of the game and decided to penalize the Tar Heels (8-5) for having “more than 11 men” on the field. The Big Ten officiating crew also announced T.J. Yates had spiked the ball with 1 second left.

That allowed Barth to run out and kick the field goal that tied it at 20.

Armed Forces Bowl Army 16, SMU 14 Josh McNary scooped up a fumble and returned it 55 yards for a touchdown and Army held on for its first winning season since 1996.

Army (7-6) had a 16-0 halftime lead on SMU’s home field, then ran out the final 4 minutes after Matt Szymanski was wide left on a 47-yard field goal attempt that would have put the Mustangs ahead.

SMU (7-7) still hasn’t had consecutive winning seasons since resuming play in 1989 after being the only team ever

given the NCAA’s so-called death penalty.

Army got the ball back with 4:05 left and quarterback Trent Steelman converted a pair of third downs. He ran for 6 yards on third-and-5 after SMU called its final timeout, then later rolled right and threw a 22-yard pass on thirdand-4 for only his second completion in the game before a final kneel-down.

After a family gathering this summer, our floors developed little round dents in the rooms. We realized that our future daughter-in-law, who always wears stilettos, was the culprit. The last time she was in our home, we could clearly see the dent trail she left.

How do we tactfully ask people to remove their shoes without hurting their feelings? — Dimples

can I make my family see that I am truly disabled? — Did Dear Dimples: Hardwood Something Wrong Raising My floors are not expected to Kids

Before welcoming 2011 with a glass or three, let’s glance back at the notable figures from television who left us in 2010.

They include, in no particular order, Barbara Billingsley, best known as the allAmerican mom on “Leave it to Beaver”; Robert Culp, the swinging tennis-playing secret agent from “I Spy”; Merlin Olsen, NFL great turned “Little House on the Prairie” star; and Leslie Nielsen, leading man turned clown on “Police Squad!” and other spoofs. It’s hard to think of Nielsen without his “Airplane” co-star, Peter Graves (“Mission Impossible”). Come to think of it, Billingsley appeared in “Airplane!” too.

“Golden Girl” Rue McClanahan died, as did “Designing Women” star Dixie Carter.

We lost Adam Cartwright from “Bonanza” (Pernell Roberts) and “Davy Crockett” himself, Fess Parker. John Forsythe, the voice behind “Charlie’s Angels” and the star of “Dynasty” and “Bachelor Father,” left us.

And so did longtime interviewer Art Linkletter, who discovered that kids say the darndest things.

Several former child actors died too young, including Andrew Koenig (“Growing Pains”); Corey Haim (“Roomies” and several TV films) and Gary Coleman (“Diff’rent Strokes”). As did TV producer Denise Cramsey (“School Pride”) and actress Denise Borino-Quinn, who played Ginny Sack on “The Sopranos.”

Don Meredith (“Monday Night Football) will be missed, as will newsmen Daniel Schorr and Harold Dow (“48 Hours”). Reality television star Capt. Phil Harris (“Deadliest Catch”) died, as did “Survivor” contestant Jennifer Lyon. The world of soaps lost James Mitchell (“All My Children”) and Helen Wagner (“All My Children”). “Mad Men”-era sex symbols and singers Eddie Fisher (“The Eddie Fisher Show”) and Dorothy Provine (“The Roaring Twenties”) died this year. As did Bud Greenspan, who produced TV sports documentaries, most notably Olympics specials.

Best-known for big-screen comedies, Blake Edwards also produced “Peter Gunn,” a jazzy detective series featuring one of the coolest theme songs of all time. Speaking of cool theme songs, the late indie rocker Alex Chilton co-wrote “In the Street,” which was adapted for “That ’70s Show.” Steve Landesberg (“Barney Miller”) left us in 2010, as did character actor Maury Chaykin (“Entourage” and dozens of TV credits).

And while Dennis Hopper will be best remembered for his era-spanning film career, his TV credits stretch from 1950s Westerns (“Cheyenne”) to the first season of “24” and the recent cable adaptation of “Crash.” Apologies in advance for any notables or personal favorites I’ve left out.

Hail and farewell. ● A tradition since the mid-1970s, “Dick Clark’s Primetime New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” (9 p.m., ABC) gets a little help from co-host Ryan Seacrest. Look for performances from Ke$ha, Taio Cruz, Willow Smith and Train among others. ● HBO signs off 2010 with “Bette Midler: The Showgirl Must Go On” (8 p.m., HBO). Showtime counters with the Tom Arnold comedy special “That’s My Story and I’m Sticking to It” (8 p.m., Showtime). ● “MTV’s New Year’s Bash” (9:30 p.m., MTV) takes a cheeky look at the past year in pop culture and culminates with a balldrop featuring “Jersey Shore” personality Snookie. ● “New Year’s Eve with Carson Daly” (9 p.m., NBC) features performances by Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj and My Chemical Romance.

Dear Annie: Over the past

For Friday, Dec. 31: This year could prove to be very exciting. Many of your most inner hopes and desires become realities.

Confusion surrounds finances. This type of chaos could be unfamiliar to you, but you can handle it. If you are single, make sure the person you choose really is emotionally available. If you are attached, the two of you benefit from long weekends together alone as a couple. Sagittarius makes an excellent healer.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★★ Spend special time with a loved one. Create your New Year's resolutions together, laughing and enjoy the moment.

Tonight: Feeling bold and adventuresome.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ Getting any alone time might be close to impossible. A stream of friends reach out to you — some on the phone, others in e-mail, many inviting you to join them if not tonight then soon thereafter.

Tonight: Happiest with your favorite person.

remain pristine, and nicks and dents are the cost of entertaining. However, it is perfectly acceptable to ask guests to remove their shoes at the door, especially if you provide cozy little slippers for them to wear instead. Some will refuse, which is OK, but your son should encourage his future wife to comply.

Dear Did Something: Your children may be lazy and ungrateful, but we also believe they are frightened by your disability and their complaints are their way of coping. Ignore them. If they are not paying rent, their minimum contribution should be cooking, cleaning and doing chores — regardless of your physical ability. Tell your mother and brother to visit and assess the situation before judging. And when your daughter complains, reply sympathetically, “Life is tough.” If they refuse to stop complaining and you can afford a caregiver, tell them they are free to move out.

Dear Annie: A year ago, I became ill and was in the hospital for a month. I was told that my children were there the entire time. Since then, I have been declared legally disabled. There is some room for improvement in my condition, but it will take a lot of time. I would love to have my old life back, but it isn’t going to happen.

I always thought I was a good mother, but apparently I failed somewhere. Two of my children are still living at home, and all I get is criticism from them that I don’t do enough around the house. It’s nearly impossible for me to cook and clean, and no one else even tries.

We are all adults living here. My daughter constantly complains about all she does for me. She wants to get paid for washing my clothes, doing the dishes and any other chores. Mind you, both children live here rent-free. At present, my son is unemployed, but always has money to buy cigarettes and go out with his friends.

My children are constantly belittling me about things I cannot do, and my mother and brother add fuel to the fire by insisting that I am milking the situation. Neither of them lives in this area, and they don’t visit.

I am improving little by little, but progress is slow. How
