Behind a pumpkin patch, a big heart 4-H innovator inspired Lawrence kids to grow By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

In the 1970s, Sheila Lynch and her siblings began growing pumpkins for a 4-H horticulture project. The four children would track their investments and sales and Lindquist hopefully turn a profit. Douglas County’s 4-H agent at the time, Lindy Lindquist, had planted the idea in their heads that they could do more than just grow a few pumpkins, Lynch said. Please see HEART, page 8A

Kerry Gooch, executive director of the Kansas Democratic Party, said he also expects a full field of candidates to file, although there are fewer Democrats than Republicans running this year. “We have a great group of candidates right now, and I hope they all come,” he said. Party officials and outside observers said the biggest consideration for candidates at this stage is cash flow. It costs $15,000 to be on the Republican ballot in Kansas; $2,500 for the Democrats. And with so many candidates in the race, especially on the Republican side, it’s still not clear who will be in the hunt when the filing deadlines come in early January. Kansas GOP executive director Clay Barker, however, said candidates can’t wait too long before deciding to file in Kansas. “Anyone serious about going into Iowa will need to file with us or it will be a sign they are not a serious candidate,” he said in a recent email. On Thursday, presidential candidates filed their third-quarter campaign finance statements, detailing receipts and expenditures from July 1 through Sept. 30. On the Republican side, those reports showed Ben Carson surging in fundraising, taking in $20 million for the quarter, nearly two and a half times as much as he collected the previous quarter. Bush, meanwhile, brought in $13.4 million. Those amounts were dwarfed by the top Democrats, however. Hillary Clinton took in just under $30 million, followed by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders with $26.2 million. Those numbers only reflect what the candidates’

own campaigns took in. Nearly all of the candidates also have their own affiliated “super PACs” that can collect unlimited amounts of money. In that area, according to the website Politifact. com, Bush’s super PAC, Right to Rise USA, has far outstripped all other competitors, taking in $103 million during the first half of this year. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who has four affiliated super PACs, took in a combined $38.4 million in the first half of the year, while Clinton’s super PAC Priorities USA Action took in $15.7 million. The super PACs last filed financial reports July 31 and won’t report again until Jan. 31. Kansas University political science professor Patrick Miller said he’s not

L awrence J ournal -W orld surprised by the dearth of candidates filing in Kansas so far. “There are so many people in this field right now, and they’re all struggling to get attention,” he said. “Their focus needs to be on those early states.” Fort Hays State University professor Chapman Rackaway said he expects most of the candidates who plan to compete will file in Kansas just before the deadline. “I think a lot of people are hedging their bets,” he said. “If they’re serious, they’ll put in, because for the Republican side at least, the Kansas primary is a good one. It’s got proportionately more delegates because they get a boost for being a strong Republican state.” Kansas will send 40 delegates to the Republican National Convention in Cleveland. Proportionately, that’s a lot for Kansas, considering its small population, but Arnold said the state party gets rewarded because of its number of Republican members of Congress, its past history of voting for GOP presidential candidates and its number of Republican state officeholders. It’s also only a small fraction of the 1,236 delegates a candidate needs to secure the nomination. But with 14 active candidates in the field currently, Arnold thinks all the candidates will be fighting for every delegate they can get. Democrats tend to have larger conventions, and it will take about 2,240 delegates to win that party’s nomination. Kansas, which has no Democratic members of Congress or statewide elected officeholders, will only send 37 delegates to their convention in Philadelphia. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

Davis: Kansans will tire of GOP

Kansas poised to lead field of drone tech By Roxana Hegeman Associated Press

Wichita — Kansas is trying to position itself as an industry leader in the emerging field of unmanned aerial systems, building on the framework already in place as an aviation manufacturing cluster and in its technology-driven agricultural sector. Major Kansas universities are also doing cuttingedge research on drones and training the skilled workforce needed to support it. On Thursday, industry and business leaders gathered in Wichita for a UAS summit that marked the culmination of a series of workshops this year on the use of the technology. “Momentum is just going to drive us in that direction,” said Joel Anderson, the development director at Kansas State University’s research office. “We just need to get behind it — market and communicate it effectively so the rest of the world understands the true value that they get out of the state of Kansas.” The UAS industry is going to have a huge impact in Kansas driven by precision agriculture, which uses big data such as that used to pinpoint water needs within fields of crops, he said. A 2013 study by the Association of Unmanned Vehicle Systems International estimated that about 80 percent of the

Volunteer works to fight poverty at its roots By Molly Norburg

About this story

United Way of Douglas County

Cultivating a love of reading among elementary school children is no small task. Neither is providing the students of Douglas County with the educational resources to achieve. But this year, United Way of Douglas County has taken significant steps towards these goals with the addition of Jen Dejmal Schmidt, an AmeriCorps VISTA. Volunteers in Service to America, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, is a national poverty fighting initiative. The program enlists the skills, dedication and knowledge of volunteers around the country to fortify or-

In making a one-year commitment, VISTAs often provide the manpower to fulfill understaffed projects in nonprofits. “When you take on a role as

a VISTA, you’re literally saying, ‘I’m willing to do these tasks that all these people who have been working here want to accomplish, but haven’t had the time or the resources to get it off the ground,’” Dejmal Schmidt said. Because the United Way views education as the bridge to a better life for poverty-stricken citizens, Dejmal Schmidt focuses primarily on the education community goal for Douglas County. Her recent work has centered on amplifying volunteer engagement through the development of a guest readership program.

Paul Davis, the unsuccessful Democratic candidate for Kansas governor last year, said Saturday that he only has a few regrets about how his 2014 campaign was run, but he said Democrats have reason to feel optimistic about the 2016 races. Speaking to a regular monthly gathering of the Douglas County Democratic Party, Davis conceded he did not reach out enough to Latino voters, especially those in communities like Dodge City, Liberal and Garden City. “I didn’t spend as much time in southwest Kansas as I wanted to,” Davis said. Davis’ speech was the latest in what has become a long line of post-election analyses as Kansas Democrats try to figure out what went wrong for them in 2014 and how they hope to turn things around as the 2016 races approach. Much has been made about the Democrats’ lack of outreach to the Latino community in 2014. Two years earlier, according to national exit polls, Latinos voted for President Barack Obama 71 percent to 27 percent over Republican Mitt Romney. But Kansas Democratic Please see DAVIS, page 5A

Medical companies line up eastern Lawrence office space

esidents in eastern Lawrence soon may have better access to some health care providers. A project is in the works to convert an office building near 23rd and Harper streets into medical offices. DaVita Dialysis has signed a deal to locate in a portion of the vacant office building at 1918 E. 23rd St., which previously housed the offices of SurePoint, an online pharmacy company that is based in Lawrence.

Ken Hayes, a commercial real estate agent with Lawrence’s Hedges Realty Executives, said the building is seeking another medical user or two for the remaining space.

Nick Onelio left a job as a medical sales representative in Chicago to move to Kansas for a job as sales account executive for Wichita-based Blue Chip UAS. The company has six employees and partners with the New Zealand manufacturer of the machines.

“People are very hesitant right now,” Onelio said. “Once they see the benefit, it is an easy sale.” Also, $1.4 million in federal grants is going to a number of projects now underway at K-State, Wichita State University and Kansas University, said Andi Meyer, research engineer at Wichita State University. K-State’s Salina campus was the second university in the nation to offer a bachelor’s degree

in UAS in 2011. This fall the university added a second bachelor’s degree in drone design and integration. The university, in partnership with Westar Energy, recently built one of the largest enclosed flight facilities for unmanned aircraft in the nation. Westar is interested in using the drone flight facility to train employees so the company can more efficiently inspect utility lines.

national political groups in the 2014 race. “One thing I didn’t account for (in planning for the race) was the money that would come in from national governors associations,” he said. “The Democratic Governors Association was as helpful as they could be.” But he said he did not anticipate that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who chaired the Republicans Governors Association, would use it as a “launching pad” for his presidential campaign and would out-raise the Democrats’ organization by a 6-to-1 margin. “That made a $5 million difference,” he said. Davis said the dynamics of the U.S. Senate race between Republican incumbent Pat Roberts and independent challenger

Greg Orman also played a role in his race. “There is no apparatus behind an independent that’s going to turn out voters,” he said. “Democrats weren’t sending truckloads of money in the way Republicans did for Pat Roberts.” Looking ahead to the 2016 races, Davis said he believes Kansas Democrats have reason for optimism. But his optimism was not based on the idea that Kansas voters are starting to lean toward Democrats, but rather his faith that eventually, voters will lean away from Brownback and the GOP leadership in the Legislature. “Legislative leadership and our governor are out of touch with what people want to see from state government,” Davis said.

During a question-andanswer session after his remarks, Davis was asked how things would look, one year into a Davis administration, if he had won the election. “I would have brought much higher-caliber people to cabinet and key positions,” Davis said. “One of the things (former Democratic Gov.) Kathleen Sebelius did was recruit very talented people,” he said. “Sam Brownback has not done that. I don’t think we would have had the kind of session we had (in 2014). We would have brought a different coalition to put together a budget package that was going to work.”

Beyond the evolving guest readership initiative, Dejmal Schmidt also completes mini-projects, which range from writing program descriptions to creating service event guides for independent organizations. Now in her second term as a VISTA, Dejmal Schmidt frequently leverages her degree in public relations from Colorado State University to plan community events, communicate with local media outlets and brainstorm new promotional tactics for United Way’s commitment to education.

“The idea is that I will put processes in place that will allow (United Way of Douglas County) to continue progressing when I am gone,” she said. Those processes, such as the volunteer reader program, may be diverse, but each strives toward the common goal of ensuring that every elementary school student in Douglas County has the scholastic tools and support system to succeed. This overarching concept encompasses two of United Way’s main education strategies: fostering social development and general knowledge in

kindergarteners so they enter school ready to succeed, and giving elementary students the added supports they need to be proficient in math and reading by fifth grade. These ambitious goals are not without their challenges, but Dejmal Schmidt, in her role as an AmeriCorps VISTA, relishes the opportunity to enact long-term change in Douglas County. “It can be a big responsibility, but it’s definitely worth it,” Dejmal Schmidt said. “Being able to make a difference is the greatest legacy you can leave your community.”

Here’s the 411 on N-1-1 phone services

lmost everyone knows that within the United States, dialing 911 on any phone will connect you with local emergency services, be it the police, fire or ambulance. What many do not know is there are eight other very helpful N-1-1 numbers that may be available in your area. Controlled by the Federal Communications Commission, N-1-1 numbers serve as an abbreviated dialing code for certain services. Communities have the opportunity to designate what actual number some of the N-1-1 calls are routed to, while other N-1-1 numbers carry specific contact requirements. Follow these steps to access N-1-1 services. Step 1: Dial 011 followed by the country code and international phone number to place a call to any phone number outside of North American when using a North American-based telephone. Step 2: Dial 211 to access information on community services. In most areas, the 211 number will route the call to the local United Way office where questions can be answered and contact information on local services can be provided. Step 3: Dial 311 to access nonemergency services. Much like 911, the 311 number will route the call to a local area dispatcher for nonemergency police, fire and medical services. In some areas the 311 number can also be used to report power outages, downed trees, potholes and other common municipal service requests.

Step 5: Dial 511 for up-to-date traffic reports, including road closings and weather alerts. In some areas this number also links the user to public transportation information. Step 6: Dial 611 for telephone repair service, whether it is a land line or a cellphone. Most cellphone service providers do not charge for 611 calls. Step 7: Dial 711 for telecommunications relay services, specifically for persons with a hearing or speech disability. The 711 number allows a person with a text telephone (TTY) or other device to call others with or without such a device. Step 8: Dial 811 before digging or trenching at any depth in your yard to avoid damaging buried utility lines. 811 is a free and nationally active service that will contact area utilities on your behalf and send them out to mark buried lines near the potential digging site. — Have a home improvement question for the Fix-It Chick?

Husband needs to cut ties with ‘Ms. Amazing’ Dear Annie: About four years ago, after 17 years of marriage (no children), working full time, having a part-time cleaning job, doing 90 percent of the housework and 80 percent of the yardwork, I asked my husband whether I could quit my full-time job. I was 42 and in good shape but was having painful back problems from the type of work I did. My husband had a good job, and with a little bit of corner cutting, we didn’t need the money from my job. He agreed, but after a while, he began to seem distant and started talking constantly about a girl at work — how amazing she was because she worked full time and went to school while caring for her two children.

After months of this, I thought a second part-time job might make him treat me with more respect. Then my mother broke her arm and my father was being treated for prostate cancer, so I helped them, along with working two part-time jobs and doing the housework and yardwork. It didn’t help. My husband hung out with that “amazing” girl. He also spent a lot of time with a guy who

‘Fargo’ deep as Royals’ bullpen Monday nights are now home to television’s best show as well as its most original new treasure. Like a pitching staff with five aces, “Fargo” (9 p.m., FX) is so rich in interesting characters that it’s easy to overlook some real talents. This adaptation of the Coen brothers’ classic, now in it’s second season, also marks the return of Kirsten Dunst to episodic television. Most famous for the wildly popular “SpiderMan” franchise, she has also worked in such experimental cult favorites as Sofia Coppola’s “Marie Antoinette” and Lars von Trier’s “Melancholia.” ‘‘Fargo” has always been about the desperate acts of seemingly minor characters. What drives Dunst’s Peggy Blomquist to such disturbing choices? Is she really honest with her husky hubby, Ed (Jesse Plemons), a man whose modest ambitions seem so at odds with her thirst for encounter group self-fulfillment? And how, or rather, why, did she think she could cover up her accident outside the Waffle Hut? At first, Peggy seems like just another casserole-loving Midwestern cliche. But in her own quiet and determined way, she could be the Lady Macbeth who sets this tragedy in motion.

Not enough can be written about the off-kilter musical comedy “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” (7 p.m., CW). A show this original has a way of not surviving. So cherish it while you can. At the same time, “Crazy Ex” represents a fascinating development in the history of musical comedy. The show’s irrepressible star, Rachel Bloom, was born in 1987, making her just 2 when Disney’s animated feature “The Little Mermaid” introduced musical theater sensibilities to an entire new generation that was all but raised on “Beauty and the Beast,” “Aladdin” and “The Lion King.” This near-universally praised comedy was watched by fewer than a million people in its debut. Maybe its core audience is waiting to watch, or stream it, elsewhere.

convinced him that I was a freeloader. After a horrible vacation where he bought earrings for Ms. Amazing and presents for her sons, I found emails between them. He admitted he was in love with her but said nothing had happened. He eventually moved out and filed for divorce, but when he heard that I had moved to Hawaii, he tried to woo me back. After six months of promises that he had changed, I returned home. I recently found a text from this same girl, asking when he’ll be working with her again so they can go to lunch. I left the house. He says the girl has a boyfriend and I’m overreacting. Am I?

Prevention efforts Hopefully, a new center established at KU will result in a more coordinated and effective effort to prevent sexual violence on campus.

t’s not uncommon for a large organization like Kansas University to emphasize its concern for an issue by creating a new unit to focus on that issue. That appears to be what KU did last week when it announced the creation of the new KU Sexual Assault Prevention and Education Center, or SAPEC. The initial cost of the center is estimated at $200,000, which will cover salaries and benefits for four employees and other expenses of setting up the office. KU said it would receive no new funding for the center but would find existing money to cover those costs. The new office was a top priority of KU’s Sexual Assault Task Force, which released its recommendations last spring. Currently, the Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access (IOA) oversees educational programs and sexual violence climate surveys, but it also is responsible for investigating reports of sexual violence and recommending disciplinary action in those case. Separating the education and prevention duties from the investigation and discipline duties does make sense. The other goal of the new office is to coordinate various sexual assault prevention and education programs on campus. In addition to IOA, such programming has been provided by the university’s public safety office, student affairs office and the Watkins Health Service, and KU said it hoped to shift those duties away from those offices to allow them to focus on other “core functions.” The Emily Taylor Center for Women & Gender Equity also has worked for many years to supply programs and information aimed at educating and raising the awareness of students about sexual and relationship violence. Jane Tuttle, assistant vice provost for student affairs, acknowledged in a KU news release, that “the university already provides strong sexual assault prevention and educational programming” but recognizes those programs “could be improved if they were better coordinated and centralized under one roof.” Coordination is a good goal that may make it easier for students to access services and information. It may even allow KU to realize some overall efficiency in providing those services and achieving the desired goal of reducing instances of sexual assault on campus. What the university needs to guard against, however, is simply adding another layer of bureaucracy in an effort to show it is taking this problem seriously. The many challenges and concerns that KU is called upon to address are an invitation to create more and more administrative structure. Hopefully, the new SAPEC will coordinate services and eliminate duplication in a way that simplifies access and allows the university to make real strides toward addressing sexual violence on campus.

Freedom feeds economic inequality Washington — America is more distant from the 1933 beginning of the New Deal (82 years) than that beginning was from the 1865 end of the Civil War (68 years). Both episodes involved the nation’s understanding of equality: The war affirmed equality of natural rights; the New Deal addressed unequal social conditions. Today’s Democratic Party is frozen, like a fly in amber, in the New Deal preoccupation — but with less excuse than Democrats had during the Great Depression. The party believes that economic inequality is an urgent problem, and that its urgency should be understood in terms of huge disparities of wealth. Neither proposition is (to use the term Jefferson used when he wrote equality into America’s catechism) a self-evident truth. The fundamental producer of income inequality is freedom. Individuals have different aptitudes and attitudes. Not even universal free public education, even were it well done, could equalize the ability of individuals to add value to the economy. Besides, some people want to teach, others want to run hedge funds. In an open society, rewards are set not by political power but by impersonal market forces, the rewards of which will differ dramatically but usually predictably. Beyond freedom’s valuable fecundity in producing unequal social outcomes, four other facets of today’s America fuel inequality. First, the entitlement state

Second, big, regulatory government inherently exacerbates inequality because it inevitably serves the strong — those sufficiently educated, affluent, articulate and confident to influence the administrative state’s myriad redistributive actions. Third, seven years of ZIRP — zero interest-rate policy — have not restored the economic dynamism essential for social mobility but have had the intended effect of driving liquidity into equities in search of high yields, thereby enriching the 10 percent of Americans who own approximately 80 percent of the directly owned stocks. Also,

by making big government inexpensive, low-interest rates exacerbate the political class’s perennial disposition toward deficit spending. And little of the 2016 federal budget’s $283 billion for debt service will flow to individuals earning less than the median income. Fourth, family disintegration cripples the primary transmitter of social capital — the habits, mores, customs and dispositions necessary for seizing opportunities. When 72 percent of African-American children and 53 percent of Hispanic children are born to unmarried women, and 40 percent of all births are to unmarried women, and a majority of all mothers under 30 are not living with the fathers of their children, the consequences for the life chances, and lifetime earnings, of millions of children are enormous. Bernie Sanders is doing well, if not good, by reducing the debate about equality to resentment of large fortunes. He should read Harry G. Frankfurt’s new book “On Inequality” (Princeton University Press). It is so short (89 pages) that even a peripatetic candidate can read it, and so lucid that he cannot miss its inconvenient point: “It is misguided to endorse economic egalitarianism as an authentic moral ideal.” Frankfurt, a Princeton professor of philosophy emeritus, argues that economic inequality is not inherently morally objectionable. “To the extent that it is truly un-

desirable, it is on account of its almost irresistible tendency to generate unacceptable inequalities of other kinds.” These can include access to elite education, political influence and other nontrivial matters. But Frankfurt’s alternative to economic egalitarianism is the “doctrine of sufficiency,” which is that the moral imperative should be that everyone have enough. The pursuit of increased economic equality might, but need not, serve the ethic of sufficiency. And this pursuit might distract people from understanding, and finding satisfaction with, “what is needed for the kind of life a person would most sensibly and appropriately seek.” This has nothing to do with “the quantity of money that other people happen to have.” Frankfurt argues that “doing worse than others does not entail doing badly.” And an obsession with others’ resources “contributes to the moral disorientation and shallowness of our time.” Sanders focuses less on empathy for the poor than on stoking the discontent of those who are comfortable but envious. They will ultimately be discomfited by the fact that envy is the only one of the seven deadly sins that does not give the sinner even momentary pleasure. Fortunately, for most Americans, believing in equality simply means believing that everyone is at least as good as everyone else. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Three theories why the GOP is in crisis By Dick Meyer Scripps Washington Bureau

The Republican Party is tangled up into a nasty knot, there’s no argument about that. However, there are plenty of arguments about how, why and what’s next. Three theories of Republican politics offer answers: ideological, institutional and demographic. The ideological theory is that the party has been hijacked by a truly radical fringe less interested in the traditional, pragmatic goals of American political parties than in revolution and doctrinal purity. “Basically, the party abandoned traditional conservatism for right-wing radicalism,” columnist David Brooks writes. “Republicans came to see themselves as insurgents and revolutionaries, and every revolution tends toward The anarchy and ideological theory ends up devouris that the party ing its own.” is ofhas been hijacked tenBrooks dubbed the by a truly radical c o n s e r v a t i v e liberals love fringe less most. But on interested in this, he is saythe traditional, ing what plenty pragmatic goals of Republicans (and indepenof American and Dempolitical parties dents ocrats) think: than in revolution “(T)his new Republican facand doctrinal tion regards the purity.” messy business of politics as soiled and impure. Compromise is corruption. Inconvenient facts are ignored. Countrymen with different views are regarded as aliens. Political identity became a sort of ethnic identity, and any compromise was regarded as a blood betrayal.” The more clout this faction is allowed, the more chaotic the GOP Congress and the presidential primaries will become. “These insurgents are incompetent at governing and unwilling to be governed,” Brooks writes. In contrast, the institutional argument says the Republican Party is the victim of its own success. The GOP does, after all, control both chambers of Congress and 31 governors’ mansions. Republicans have trifectas (control of both legislative chambers and the governorship) in 23 states; the Democrats have just seven. Winners can afford to squabble — and they do. “Having won its largest majorities since Harry Truman occupied the White House in the 2014 midterm elections, the Republican Party is struggling to reconcile its successes at the ballot box,” writes Noah Rothman in Commentary. “A broad majority coalition is an ideo-

“

logically diverse coalition, and one that inevitably grows unwieldy.” Rothman says the Democrats appear to be a well-ordered party today only because “the party’s ideological diversity has been wiped out by two successive wave midterm elections that severely truncated the Democratic Party’s membership in Congress.” Thus Hillary Clinton has no serious opposition. That’s the sign of a retreating party, according to Rothman Giving the Republicans’ flanks and factions room to roam may be messy, but it will pay off. “Much of the GOP’s present disarray can be fairly attributed to the party’s desire to accommodate its restive base,” Rothman writes, approvingly. A less sanguine version of this institutional argument comes from John Lawrence, who was a top aide to Nancy Pelosi for many years. Writing in the Atlantic, Lawrence compares the GOP’s predicament to the Democrats in the 1970s. After Watergate, voters sent a large crop of young, liberal Democrats to Congress. They forced reforms and loud arguments on the old guard. In the end, it was too messy and Reagan reigned for eight years. “Americans may well be seeing the repetition of a pattern of victory-reformfactionalization-defeat that has become a recurrent feature in an environment where parties are aligned in ideological, partisan conflict,” Lawrence says. A third theory of this GOP moment is that demographics are destiny. “The Republican Party has grown more conservative, more downscale economically, older and more Southern in character,” writes Gerald Seib, Washington bureau chief of The Wall Street Journal. “In that light, its revolt against what is perceived as a Wall Street-led

establishment and the polite, small-c conservatism that was personified by Gerald Ford is only natural.” Since 1990, Seib notes, the percentage of blue-collar workers identifying as Republicans went up from 35 percent to 44 percent. Influenced by Reagan, more 18- to 34-year-olds in 1990 were Republicans than Democrats; not anymore. Loyal to FDR’s Social Security, voters over 65 back in 1990 were strongly Democratic; not anymore. These new Republicans are more conservative but less establishment than the pre-Reagan party. “A Republican Party that is more populist, conservative and Southern is likely to reject what such voters see as elitist establishment leaders and their moneyed interests,” Seib writes. So now there’s full-blown rebellion in the House and in the presidential primaries. If you’re a Republican, this is the theory you really don’t want to buy. It’s the kiss of death. That’s because the core Republican demographic of white males is shrinking; the key populations in the Democratic tent are growing in the electorate: young people, minorities and women. These theories all help understand why the Republicans are so tangled up. It is difficult to see how the party can overcome its ideological chasm, its factions and its long-term demographic challenge. But, oddly enough, it isn’t at all hard to see the Republicans coming out of next year’s elections happy with the results. They do have the good luck to be running against the Democrats after all. — Dick Meyer is chief Washington Correspondent for the Scripps Washington Bureau and DecodeDC (www.newsnet5.com/decodedc).

A Monday feature highlighting behindthe-scenes stars and unsung heroes who make Lawrence a special place to live. To suggest someone for a feature, email news@ ljworld.com. Put “Only in Lawrence” in the subject line.

“My brother wanted to grow the biggest pumpkin, and I just wanted to have a few to display,” she said. “I’m sure it was Lindy that said you can sell those pumpkins and claim a profit in your record books. “That was another thing we got excited about when I was young,” Lynch explained. “It was a little 4-H record-keeping thing where we could say we made money in horticulture and you could win an award.” The horticulture project soon exploded, Lynch said. Instead of taking the fruits (or vegetables) of their labor into Lawrence to sell on street corners, people soon started showing up at their farm looking to buy pumpkins. Now, Schaake’s Pumpkin Patch is a household name throughout the area. Every fall, cars line North 1500 Road and crowds flock to the family farm not only to pick out their pumpkins for the year but also to take a hay ride, pet a few farm animals or get lost in their hay maze. Every fall, the pumpkin patch is an all-hands-ondeck affair, said Lynch’s mother, Janet Schaake. “We have four children and 10 grandchildren, and they all come home to run the pumpkin patch during the month of October,” she said. “We’re also harvesting corn and soybeans, but the kids and I pretty well run the pumpkin operation during the week.” The entire operation grew far beyond what any of the Schaake children imagined, Lynch said, and none of it would have been possible without Lindquist’s encouragement in 4-H. “As a kid it was great,” Lynch said. “She was just always there. She was a friend, she wasn’t just a 4-H agent.” Now retired and living in Manhattan, Kan., Lindquist said she likes to look back at her time as a 4-H agent in Douglas County and stays in touch with many of the children, now adults, she helped teach so many years ago. On Oct. 9, Lindquist was inducted into the National 4-H Hall of Fame for her work with the organization

throughout the state. She is just the 13th Kansan to be inducted into the national hall. A Topeka native, Lindquist grew up cheering for the Jayhawks, she said. “My dad was co-owner of a business in Lawrence, so although I grew up in Topeka, we had Lawrence business connections,” she said. “And when I came to school at K-State, the others students would have to remind me that our team was the Wildcats and not the Jayhawks.” Lindquist, 64, grew up as a Girl Scout rather than a 4-H kid. It wasn’t until a student adviser at Kansas State University asked her what she knew about extension work that she considered a career with the organization. “Because I lived in town, I didn’t think I could be a part of the extension, but I got invited to interview in Chase County, and when they offered me the job I didn’t know what to say,” she said. “I didn’t think they’d hire me because I hadn’t been in 4-H, but they were looking for somebody who was willing to try new things. They were just ready for some new ideas.” For three and a half years, Lindquist worked as Chase County’s home economist and 4-H agent, and it was there she began to fall in love with her work. “What I really, really loved was working with the 4-Hers and the volunteers,” she said. Then, in 1977, Lindquist was offered a position in Douglas County and jumped at the chance to live and work in Lawrence as a 4-H youth development agent. There she was able to branch out, create new clubs, competitions and projects and work with the children she loved so much.

“I think it was just the way that young people are, their eagerness to try new things and their wanting to learn,” Lindquist said. “I really loved the way you never knew what the kids were going to say or what you were going to do that would make an impression.” For nearly 14 years, Lindquist lived and worked in Douglas County, developing new and interesting ways to incorporate 4-H’s educational materials into everyday life. “It’s amazing the support that Douglas County has for education, informal as well as formal education,” she said. “I can remember the first time I went to a meeting of the Lawrence School Board and presented some ideas about our school enrichment program, and they were so excited. They were very supportive, and they gave me the go-ahead.” As an organization, 4-H’s main goal is to teach children life skills that hopefully help them become productive adults, Lindquist said. Whether they were agricultural, social or financial skills, everyone was invited, she said. Whether the children in 4-H were tasked with raising chickens, cultivating garden plots or organizing youth competitions, Lynch said it never felt like work because Lindquist made it fun. “It wasn’t just something that you needed to do, but something that you wanted to do,” she said. “I can’t even remember who the agent was before Lindy. She just involved the kids more. There was always something we could do.” After her time in Douglas County, Lindquist accepted a position in Manhattan at the state 4-H office, organizing both state and national events for the organizations. She retired in 2003 and still lives with her husband, Jack, in Manhattan. Although she moved away from Lawrence long ago, Lindquist said the city and the children she used to help teach never stray far from her thoughts. “I keep pretty regular track of my Douglas County 4-Hers,” she said. “I miss it a lot. It was a wonderful place to live and a great place to learn and have a lot of friends.”

U.S., Japan fleet review comes amid China tensions Kirk Spitzer USA TODAY

SAGAMI BAY, JAPAN

Japan and the United States staged a naval show of strength off Tokyo Bay on Sunday as they flashed a pair of powerful, flat-deck warships perhaps just days before the U.S. Navy plans to challenge disputed Chinese claims to territory in the nearby South China Sea.

The aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan and the JS Izumo, the largest warship Japan has built since World War II, highlighted a seagoing review by Japan’s Maritime Self Defense Force that included 36 warships and dozens of military aircraft. Shortly after the ceremony, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe became the first serving Japanese leader to board a U.S. aircraft carrier when he flew to the Ronald Reagan by helicopter. Although the Japanese fleet review is held every three years, it held added significance this year because of mounting tensions over artificial islands China has

The Ronald Reagan arrived this month at its new homeport in Yokosuka, Japan. The ship recently completed a year-long modernization program and is considered one of the most powerful ships in the U.S. Navy.

As unrest escalates, Kerry planning Mideast mission He will meet with Netanyahu, Abbas, Abdullah

John Bacon and Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

Secretary of State John Kerry said he will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas this week as a wave of deadly violence intensified Sunday across Israel and the Palestinian territories. Kerry, speaking in Paris, said he will meet with Netanyahu in Germany and then with Abbas and Jordan’s King Abdullah in Jordan. Hours later, three people died and several were wounded in an attack at the central bus station in the southern Israeli town

of Beersheba. The attacker killed a soldier and took his semiautomatic assault rifle, firing it into a group of police officers and others, Israeli news website Arutz Sheva said, citing police. The shooter was killed; another man also was shot and killed by officers although police said he may not have been involved in the attack, the website said. The slain soldier was identified as Omri Levy, 19, a corporal in the Israeli Defense Forces. About 40 Palestinians and nine Israelis have died in the monthlong surge in violence. The latest attack came as 300 soldiers were deployed Sunday to help police patrol public trans-

portation stations, buses and major traffic arteries in Jerusalem. Other recent security measures include concrete barriers separating Jewish and Arab neighborhoods in East Jerusalem and checkpoints near some Arab neighborhoods in Jerusalem. The leader of Lebanon’s Shiite Hezbollah group, Hassan Nasrallah, on Sunday called the unrest a “renewed intifada,” or uprising, carried out by a new generation of Palestinians who believe in resistance. Also Sunday, the Israeli military said it removed 30 Jews who illegally entered a West Bank holy site Saturday night to protest the burning of the holy site by Palestinians. Violence erupted at the site, revered by some Jews as the tomb of the biblical figure Joseph, after the 30 were confronted by Palestinians, Israeli media reported. Palestinians set fire to the holy site late Thursday after the militant group Hamas called for a “day of rage” against Israel.

Obama bundlers are missing from Clinton’s donor ranks Just 76 heavy hitters have raised $100,000 Fredreka Schouten and Christopher Schnaars USA TODAY

Hundreds of wealthy Democrats who raised money for President Obama’s reelection have not yet joined the top fundraising ranks of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, raising hopes among some of Vice President Biden’s supporters that there remains a path for his late entry into the race. WASHINGTON

Just 76, or less than 10%, of the 833 individuals who collected political cash for the 2012 ObamaBiden campaign are listed among Clinton’s “Hillblazers,” her campaign’s designation for people who already have bundled together at least $100,000 on her behalf, a USA TODAY analysis of Clinton’s newly updated fundraiser list shows. Biden loyalists have sought to assure his supporters in recent days that there is still a viable route to the nomination, despite Clinton’s commanding debate performance Tuesday in Las Vegas and her early fundraising dominance over the 2016 field.

Hillary Clinton received glowing reviews of her debate performance.

In a letter Thursday to Biden’s political network, one of his longest-serving advisers, former Delaware senator Ted Kaufman, pledged an “optimistic campaign” from Biden should he seek the

presidency. Kaufman suggested that Biden was close to a decision. Asked about the Obama donors on the sidelines and whether their absence provided an opening for Biden, Clinton’s camp pointed to the big pool of donors she already has amassed and her aggressive push to build a ground operation that extends far beyond the early voting states. It’s hard to pin down exactly how much of an opening remains for Biden among the Democratic fundraisers who helped the Obama-Biden ticket win a second term. New campaign-finance reports show scores of Obama’s bundlers

giving $2,700 to Clinton, the maximum an individual can donate to her campaign for the primary. Some of Obama’s elite fundraisers also say they have committed to raise money on Clinton’s behalf but have not yet reached the $100,000 threshold needed to appear on her bundler list. Clinton, basking in rave debate reviews, has regained her narrow lead over rival Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders in the crucial state of New Hampshire, according to a Suffolk University/Boston Globe poll of likely Democratic voters released Friday.

Tiny islands make for a big dispute v CONTINUED FROM 1B

ti-submarine warfare and other duties, the Izumo’s long flat deck and overall design have led many to believe that Japan eventually could use the ship to carry fixedwing aircraft. Japanese officials have emphatically denied that. Nonetheless, Abe last month succeeded in a long-sought goal to allow Japan’s military — including its maritime self-defense force — to aid U.S. or friendly forces when they come under attack. That previously was forbidden under Japan’s pacifist Constitution. Japan currently is embroiled in a tense dispute with China over ownership of a tiny group of islands in the East China Sea. And Abe has supported U.S. demands that China halt its island-building program in the South China Sea. U.S. officials have said in recent weeks that they plan to send U.S. warships within the presumed 12-mile territorial limit around

Abe also reaffirmed a commitment for Japan’s military to play a greater role in world affairs. “By highly hoisting the flag of proactive pacifism, I’m determined to contribute more than ever to world peace and prosperity,” Abe said. In addition to the Ronald Reagan, two other U.S. warships — the cruiser USS Chancellorsville and guided missile destroyer USS Mustin — also took part in the fleet review, along with warships from Australia, France, India and South Korea. The Navy was represented at the fleet review by Vice Adm. Nora Tyson, commander of the San Diego-based 3rd Fleet — a signal of the growing commitment of West Coast based forces to the Asia-Pacific region.

Lawmakers told to ‘shut up’ on Benghazi Chairman says GOP colleagues know little about panel’s work Ledyard King USA TODAY

The Republican chairman of the congressional panel probing the Benghazi tragedy is telling his GOP colleagues to “shut up” about the committee’s work because most of them know very little about what the panel is doing. Speaking Sunday on CBS’ Face the Nation, South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy dismissed recent statements by two Republican lawmakers — including Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California — implying that at least part of the panel’s mission was to embarrass Democrat Hillary Clinton, who was secretary of State during the Benghazi attacks WASHINGTON

and is now running for president. “I get that there is a presidential campaign going on,” Gowdy said on the show. “I have told my own Republican colleagues and friends to shut up talking about things you don’t know anything about and unless you’re on the committee, you have no idea what we’ve done, why we’ve done it, and what new facts we have found.” Clinton is scheduled to testify before the committee Thursday. Gowdy, a former federal prosecutor, said he wants to find out more about what role she may have played in deciding whether to draw down security at the U.S. Embassy compound in Benghazi shortly before an attack on the Libyan facility killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens. But his work has been complicated by statements from McCarthy, who told Sean Hannity on Fox News Sept. 29 that “we put

Richard Hanna, R-N.Y., told a local radio program that “a big part” of the Benghazi panel was designed to go after Clinton. “After what Kevin McCarthy said, it’s difficult to accept at least a part of it was not,” Hanna told a Utica radio station. “I think that’s

the way Washington works,” Hanna said. “But you’d like to expect more from a committee that’s spent millions of dollars and tons of time.” In addition, a former investigator for the Benghazi committee recently accused the panel of conducting a politically motivated probe targeting Clinton. Maj. Bradley Podliska, an intelligence officer in the Air Force Reserve, was fired from the committee in

June. “These are three people who don’t have any idea what they’re talking about,” Gowdy said Sunday. He said McCarthy and Hanna have never asked for an update from the committee, which was created 17 months ago. As for Podliska, Gowdy said he has “no idea” what the panel’s been doing for the past four months. But Gowdy’s Democratic counterpart on the panel, Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, said the statements indicate how the committee’s work has veered from the initial intent to uncover what happened and prevent a future attack. “It’s a sad day for all of us because we made a commitment to the families,” Cummings told Face the Nation. “The families came in with tears in their eyes literally and said please don’t make this a political football. That’s exactly what’s happened.”

Harper tries to fend off son of former PM Trudeau in Canada Gregg Zoroya USA TODAY

A young liberal leader with a famous pedigree in Canada, Justin Trudeau, threatens to upend nearly 10 years of conservative leadership under Prime Minister Stephen Harper as Canadians go to the polls Monday. Harper, who has held power longer that most major Western leaders, hopes to capture a rare fourth term in the parliamentary elections and vanquish Canada’s perception as a solidly liberal nation. But polls show him trailing Liberal Party leader Trudeau, 43, the oldest of three sons of the late prime minister Pierre Trudeau. Harper, 56, campaigned Satur-

day at a Conservative Party rally in Toronto promoted by the Ford family, including Rob Ford, the scandalized former mayor who made headlines because of his public drunkenness and for using crack cocaine. Harper campaigned on a promise of ensuring “stability, not risk” and made an issue of his rival’s youth, casting him as “just not ready” for higher office and addressing him by his first name during national debates. But Trudeau’s performances in those five faceoffs received strong reviews, and his party has been surging at the polls. Running a distant third in polls is the left-leaning New Democratic Party led by Thomas Mulcair, who has expressed a desire to work with Trudeau to form a

IN BRIEF JOINT CHIEFS CHAIR, ISRAEL PM MEET SUNDAY

America’s top military officer met Sunday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, pledging to work with Israel to meet a growing set of regional challenges. The visit by Marine Gen. Joe Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, comes amid growing instability in the region, including a civil war in neighboring Syria and expanding Iranian support for terrorist organizations. “I’m confident that the solution to those challenges is our cooperation and that’s what I’m committed to,” Dunford told Netanyahu at the start of the meeting at the prime minister’s residence. Netanyahu said Israel and the region faced twin threats from the Islamic State and Iran, which is supporting Hezbollah and other militant organizations. The Islamic State, also called ISIS, has seized large swaths of territory in Syria and Iraq. Dunford, who took office earlier this month, pledged to continue to build on the U.S.

Obama orders waivers to Iran sanctions ‘Adoption day’ is a first step under nuclear agreement Gregory Korte USA TODAY

WASHINGTON President Obama signed an order Sunday directing his administration to begin issuing waivers to Iran nuclear sanctions — but the waivers will go into effect only once Iran meets its obligations under the agreement limiting its nuclear program. The presidential memorandum marks what’s being called

“adoption day” for the international agreement intended to roll back Iran’s nuclear program. The milestone, four administration officials said, is driven by the calendar. “Today marks an important milestone toward preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and ensuring its nuclear program is exclusively peaceful going forward,” Obama said in a statement. Obama directed Secretary of State John Kerry to issue the waivers. Sunday marks 90 days since the United Nations Security Council approved the agreement. “So adoption day is a calendar-

driven event and it’s the day at which all the parties begin to take the steps they need to make sure they take to get to implementation day,” said State Department

spokesman John Kirby. “And we’re not at implementation day; that’s a whole different purpose.” No date is set for implementation day. Under the agreement, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, implementation will come only when the International Atomic Energy Agency certifies that Iran has lived up to its obligations to reduce its stockpiles of enriched uranium, dismantle two-thirds of its centrifuges, and halt construction of new nuclear facilities. Western officials have said they expect that to take four to six months. Iran is motivated to act quickly, said one of the four senior administration officials, who

spoke on condition of anonymity under ground rules set by the State Department. Obama and the European Union are required to direct the issuance of waivers. The arrangement allows businesses to know what sanctions are waived, a senior administration official said. “These next steps will allow us to reach the objectives we set out to achieve ... and will result in cutting off all four pathways Iran could use to develop enough fissile material for a nuclear weapon,” Obama said. Most of the sanctions being lifted apply only to non-U.S. citizens and companies doing business with Iran.

Emergency officials were deciding Sunday whether to close beaches in Oahu, Hawaii, after a pair of weekend shark attacks sent two victims to the hospital with severe injuries. The attacks occurred within hours of one another and brought to seven the number of shark attacks off Hawaii’s shores this year.

The man suffered extensive injuries to both feet and was rushed to a local hospital in critical condition, she said. The man, whose name police had not yet released, was pale and struggled to remain responsive as he was brought to the beach by an outrigger canoe, according to witnesses. Later Saturday, a 32-year-old man was rushed to the hospital in serious condition from popular Waikiki Beach after a shark attack caused serious injuries to his left foot, she said. Saturday’s attacks come eight days after a 25-year-old man lost part of his left leg and some of his fingers in a shark attack on Oahu’s North Shore, according to Hawaii News Now, a news portal affiliated with KGMB-TV, KFVETV AND KHNL-TV, all based in Honolulu.

Palestinian protesters carry an injured comrade during clashes with Israeli security forces in the West Bank city of Hebron on Sunday. Tensions in the region are running high after weeks of street violence.

In West Bank, people band together in their fight against Israel

Special for USA TODAY BETHLEHEM , WEST BANK

Redfaced men and women tumble into Mohammed Najar’s home, choking on the tear gas that whitens the air outside. Najar stands back while medics rush to treat them. He doesn’t know any of the people involved in the chaos that erupted in his living room, but he cares for each one like family. As clashes between young Palestinians and Israeli forces have become a daily occurrence, community members in the West Bank have banded together, with everyone playing a different part, from the women who brings fresh sandwiches to the woodworker crafting new slingshots. “Our door is open to anyone that needs help,” Najar, 52, who is retired, told USA TODAY. “Palestine needs all of us to do something to help keep each other safe.” Over the past month, nine Israelis were killed in Palestinian attacks, most of them stabbings, while 41 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire, including 20 labeled by Israel as attackers, and the rest in clashes with Israeli troops.

The outbreak was fueled by rumors that Israel was planning to take over Jerusalem’s most sensitive holy site to both Jews and Muslims. Jews call it the Temple Mount, and the site is also home to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Islam’s third-holiest shrine and a key national symbol for the Palestinians. Israel adamantly denies the allegations, saying it has no plans to change the status quo at the site, where Jews are allowed to visit but not pray. Israel accuses the Palestinians, including Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, of inciting violence through the false claims. Since the start of the daily

clashes, Najar’s home in Bethlehem has been used as a makeshift field clinic. Lara Ramadan, 24, a medic from a small village about 20 miles away, travels to Najar’s home every day. Young men and women are carried into Najar’s home almost each time tear gas is fired from Israeli army jeeps. Ramadan’s response appears to be second nature when she jumps to attend to a young man who cannot breathe, pounding on his chest, while calmly telling him to stay awake and try to speak. “I used to wish to be throwing stones with the others during protests, but once I started training as a medic, I realized this was my way to help,” Ramadan said. “My job is just a small part, but it is a part.” On the main street, Amal Mirazir, an older woman from a local refugee camp, watches from a distance as young men carry large plastic bags full of sandwiches that she made at home. It’s the third day in a row she has come outside with sandwiches of canned meat, cucumbers and cheese. “It’s not much, but I don’t have much. This is what I can do to help,” Mirazir said. Neighbors pool their money to buy cases of water for the protesters, while families peer out their windows for those who may need shelter. Others here put old skills to use.

lately has been struggling to keep up with orders he gets for his handmade slingshots. “I used to make them in my free time sometimes,” Muntaser said, while sanding down a wooden handle. “But now the youth are coming to me begging me to make more, or to fix their old ones. Making these have become a priority.” Muntaser now spends most of his time at his shop attaching rubber bands to the wooden handles. He learned how to make the slingshots from his father during the first intifada, a Palestinian uprising between 1987-1993. “To end the occupation (by Israel), we must all fight any way we can,” Muntaser said. “For our young people that is stones. For the rest of us there are other ways.” Contributing: Abed al Qaisi

They had been used during Eucharistic adoration — a daily, public display of Communion — at St. Rose of Lima Roman Catholic Church in Freehold, where his wife Lillian is president of the Rosary Altar Society. “I was saving them,” Lillian Eagan said. “These candles are special. I didn’t have the heart to throw them out.” She had something else in mind. “You’re an artist,” she told John, an experienced painter and sculptor. “You figure out what to do with them.” He did. Eight months later, a 25-pound, 16-inch wax bust depicting Jesus sits on the Eagans’ kitchen table.

Reasons behind the market’s correction seem to have ‘reversed’ Adam Shell USA TODAY

After the stock market’s first 10% drop in four years in late summer and fall rebound that followed, a growing number of Wall Street pros are making the case for a year-end rally. “The planks for a year-end rally may be falling into place,” says John Stoltzfus, chief investment strategist at Oppenheimer, who thinks the market could make new highs by the end of 2015. Back in late August when the

Standard & Poor’s 500 was down more than 12% from its May peak and the Dow Jones industrial was staring at a nearly 15% correction, there was talk of a looming bear market. But the stock market’s ability to stay above its scary summer lows and subsequent 8.9% rally off its 2015 trough now has investors viewing the outlook for the stock market in a more positive light. “What makes (the year-end rally) happen,” says Stoltzfus, is the belief that “2016 will be a less harsh year.” Adding to the bullishness: Many of the headwinds that sparked the U.S. stock market’s biggest swoon since 2011 are no longer weighing down, says Don

A trader works on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange on Oct. 14 after bad news from Walmart pushed down the Dow.

Luskin, chief investment officer at TrendMacro. “The big August correction was caused by the strong dollar, collapsing oil prices, a scary slowdown in China and a Fed that seemed determined to hike rates

despite it all,” says Luskin. “Every risk factor driving the big correction has reversed.” Wall Street now doesn’t see an interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve until March 2016, as inflation has yet to show any signs of overheating at a time when recent economic data has come in a tad weak. Also giving investors courage to buy stocks is the fact that the triggers such as overvaluation and signs of recession that normally cause bear markets, or market declines of 20% or more, are not visible, says Saira Malik, head of global portfolio management at TIAA-CREF.

NEW YORK

arlier this year, David Muir spent weeks studying Spanish to prepare for his interview with Pope Francis in August, sitting down with a tutor several hours a week and practicing the language while strolling the streets of Manhattan.

MEDIA

Newsman takes the network in a digital direction

The 41-year old anchor of ABC’s World News Tonight spent a semester in Salamanca, Spain, as a college student, and a rusty bit of the language was still rattling around in his head. But being able to make small talk in the pope’s native tongue more proficiently, Muir figured, might trigger clarity about the man who had never before given an interview to a U.S. TV network. Good thing, too. The pope wasn’t about to conduct an interview without a quick measure of the man. “We’re inside the Vatican walls and they send me outside to this courtyard and tell me the pope is going to emerge any second,” Muir says in his Manhattan office. “About 20 minutes go by, and the door opens. Instead of the pope, I get one hand that waves me in. So I walk through the door and standing behind the door was Pope Francis. He simply wanted to meet me before we get in front of all these cameras.” Muir’s first words: “Su sanctidad. Es un honor concerlo.” (Your Holiness. It’s an honor to meet you.) Muir’s preparation for the interview — a coup for the network ahead of the pope’s visit in September — is characteristic of the ardor with which he approaches his job, colleagues and current and former bosses say.

David Muir anchored on weekends and reported from around the world before becoming lead anchor in September 2014.

The newsman was named anchor of World News Tonight a year ago, slipping into the chair occupied by Peter Jennings, Diane Sawyer and Frank Reynolds. And the show, colleagues and bosses say, has shifted to reflect Muir’s restless pace. “He’s the epitome of what a

edge that I feel personally some of that pressure,” Muir says. “But this is the most competitive evening news race in a decade, and it’s upping everyone’s game.” Like Jennings, Muir had an interest in TV journalism that was sparked early. As a kid, he watched local news religiously and liked to play reporter, interviewing his sister’s friends. He wrote to local TV stations, and CBS affiliate WTVH gave him an internship after he turned 13. Muir was hired by the station before he graduated from Ithaca College. After five years there, WCVB in Boston hired him as weekend anchor. Candy Altman, vice president at Hearst Television who hired Muir at WCVB, recalls reviewing piles of tapes but not being satisfied with the candidates. Muir’s tape caught her eye because it “didn’t look like it was prepared by an agent.” His ambition was evident early on. He was a “go-getter,” Altman says. His work covering the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan — Muir reported from Doha, Qatar — was noticed by ABC network officials. ABC hired him in August 2003, and he soon became one of most highly traveled correspondents, reporting from New Orleans during Katrina, Mogadishu, Fukushima, Tahrir Square in Egypt. Muir’s ascent at ABC News has raised some eyebrows among media critics. “The reductio ad absurdum of the good-looking white-male anchor is David Muir,” wrote media critic Frank Rich in a New York magazine piece that lamented the decline of network evening news. More broadly, ABC News’ quickened style also feeds into traditionalists’ fears that network evening newscasts — the profession’s standard bearer — are, as a group, taking a video- and socialmedia-centric turn that softens the definition of news. Muir scoffs at such criticism, citing his reports from the Hungarian border covering Syrian refugees and the work of colleagues in Damascus. “You’d be hard-pressed to tell them what they’re doing is soft news,” he says. “I think it’s easy for people to say that because they are not the ones out there putting their lives in danger.”

TRAVEL ASK THE CAPTAIN

A hard landing isn’t necessarily a bad one John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

SCOTT OLSON, GETTY IMAGES

The TSA is moving toward ensuring only those enrolled in TSA PreCheck get to access the expedited security lanes. Some passengers say wait times have shrunk, but others complain the wait is often still too long.

TSA PreCheck changes ease the lines for some There are fewer ‘confused’ travelers in the way, fliers say Charisse Jones USA TODAY

In the wake of a major move toward making expedited security lines available only to those who’ve applied for the privilege, some frequent fliers are experiencing a shorter wait. But opportunities for fliers to sign up are also increasing, so road warriors fret that traffic jams at airport screening points will continue. TSA’s PreCheck, which started in October 2011, promises fliers a quicker pass through security at more than 150 U.S. airports since they don’t have to take off their shoes, light jackets or belts and can leave laptops and liquids in their bags. To take advantage of the spedup screening, travelers must fill

out an application and schedule an appointment during which they provide fingerprints, documentation such as a passport or driver’s license and an $85 fee. If approved, their status is good for five years. Those who belong to other trusted traveler programs such as NEXUS or Global Entry can take part in TSA PreCheck without enrolling separately. More than 1.5 million travelers are part of the PreCheck program. Non-enrolled fliers, who’ve been pre-screened, have been allowed to access the expedited lines, frustrating PreCheck members who say those passengers bog down the process and are able to access a perk that others have paid for. The TSA has started to address the issue. On Sept. 13, the agency officially stopped using behavior detection officers and some other layers of security to screen non-enrolled fliers for entry to the PreCheck lanes. “Overall, the agency is now moving toward offering TSA Pre-

Check expedited screening only to trusted and pre-vetted travelers enrolled in the TSA PreCheck program and is working with a number of partners to expand enrollment in (the) program,” TSA spokesman Bruce Anderson said. Peter Krein, a PreCheck participant and member of USA TODAY’s panel of Road Warriors, said he has seen a noticeable difference at his home airport of San Diego International. “It has been again a pleasure to speed through TSA security without confused non-enrollees wondering why their traveling companions cannot also proceed through PreCheck and then wondering where bins can be found,’’ said Krein, a senior director of medical and scientific affairs, who is based in Carlsbad, Calif. For PreCheck members such as Krein, “a 15-minute wait is considered unacceptable,” he said. Although he experienced wait times of 10 to 12 minutes not long ago, Krein now clears security in five to seven minutes at such

airports as LAX, Dallas-Fort Worth and Washington Reagan National. USA TODAY Road Warrior Marjorie McLaughlin, a director of library relations management in San Diego, has also noticed a shorter wait time at airports in Philadelphia and Sacramento, as well as Oakland and San Diego. “I’d say I seldom wait more than one to two minutes,’’ she said. “Non-PreCheck travelers are usually less familiar with the routines and caused annoying delays.” Some passengers who haven’t enrolled are still being allowed to join the PreCheck lines. Some frequent fliers said that what’s supposed to be a speedy process remains an annoying slog. Road Warrior Brook Redemann, of Glenview, Ill., says, “When the TSA opened up PreCheck to the wider audience of non-business travelers, any time savings was lost. ... It significantly impacted the frequent business traveler.’’

Question: Why are some landings so rough and others so smooth, sometimes even on the same plane in similar conditions? — Submitted by reader Betsy Tutchton, Montrose, Colo. Answer: There are many variables in a landing. The target is a constant descent to just above the runway, then to “flare” the airplane, allowing for a gentle touchdown. If a wind gust catches the airplane at the wrong time or if the pilot slightly mistimes the flare or there is turbulence just above the runway, a firm touchdown happens. Under some conditions, a firm touchdown is necessary. When the runway is contaminated, touching down firmly allows the wheels to spin up and be much better at decelerating the airplane. When the runway is short, a firm touchdown is used to maximize the braking capability. Q: I do not like flying out of DCA, and the two most recent times, the landing was so rough it felt like the plane was going to disintegrate. Are there any stats showing damage or injuries there? — Daphne Poblete, Martinsburg, W.Va. A: I have flown in and out of DCA for many years. The runways are relatively short, so it is a place where a pilot wants to precisely place the airplane on the runway to have the necessary stopping distance. I do not remember cases where a hard landing at DCA caused damage. Q: My 757 hit very hard as we landed in FLL. Are the stresses of flight greater than that of a very hard landing? — J.R. Northrup, Oklahoma City A: They can be. A hard landing causes stress on the landing gear. In flight, stresses are in the wing and tail.

How to spot tainted travel advice Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

Check your sources. That’s not just a cardinal rule of journalism but also of travel planning. Make sure you get your ON travel advice from TRAVEL someone knowlEVERY edgeable and MONDAY unbiased. Whom can you trust? The holiday travel planning season is in full swing, and shoddy advice surrounds you. Guidebooks, blogs and businesses are all too willing to tell you where to go and what to buy, but their advice can be influenced by freebies, bonuses or outright incompetence. “Most of the so-called great advice is actually pretty terrible,” says Kelsey Tonner, founder of the Be a Better Guide Project, a site that helps train tour guides. Superlatives are a tip-off in his line of work. “If someone breathlessly tells you about an amazing experience or a special place and is pushing you to book on the spot, there’s a pretty good chance they are getting a commission, kickback or helping out a friend,” he says. Where are the victims, then? Fair question. In fact, there are thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of casualties of the tainted advice out there — and they don’t even know it. They have no idea their trip could have been so much better if they’d listened to the right source. Terrible advice about credit cards may be the biggest prob-

HOW TO SPOT BAD ADVICE uEveryone else says “no.” If careful research shows numerous other sources contradicting the tips you’re researching, odds are the advice is compromised or simply inaccurate. Move on. uToo many “-ests.” Hyperbole is a red flag when it comes to bad advice. Anyone who claims they’ve found the “best” credit card or the “greatest” hotel may have a hidden agenda. Tread carefully. uFollow the money. If you can’t figure out how a socalled “expert” is earning money, maybe there’s more than meets the eye. For example, a “free” tour that conveniently leads you to a restaurant or gift shop suggests the tour guide is earning a kickback from the business.

lem. Many blogs that claim to be written by travel “experts” are actually online ads that try to tempt you to sign up for a specific card. Often they promise big bonuses by instructing users about an ethically dubious practice called manufactured spending. Here’s how the trick works: You sign up for a card, then buy items only for the bonus points you collect with each purchase. You then return or liquidate the merchandise, pocketing the points. If done carelessly, this questionable strategy for collecting miles could put

Guidebooks and blogs are all too willing to tell you where to go and what to buy, but their advice can be influenced by freebies. you deep into debt, not to mention beholden to your chosen loyalty program. Tim Winship, who publishes the site Frequentflier.com, says the shills behind these sites receive hundreds of dollars for each card they sell, which dictates their editorial agenda. “So much of what now passes for travel advice on the Web is compromised by these writers’ financial self-interest,” he says. The Federal Trade Commission requires bloggers to disclose their affiliate relationships, but the cleverest credit card shills have figured out a way around this. They reveal these ties in much the same way tobacco companies publish warnings on a carton of cigarettes: in plain view but in an unmemorable font they know the reader won’t notice. Stuart McDonald, who pub-

lishes a respected travel blog called Travelfish.org, says an honest disclosure commands the same attention as the editorial content. In his site’s case, he recently redesigned his pages to give the warnings more prominence, denoting each link with a dollar sign next to it. “Affiliate links need to be disclosed to the reader, so they know what they’re doing,” he says. Tainted tips for personal enrichment are just one source of bad advice. Another is garden-variety incompetence. That’s the kind of travel advice Paula Miller got from her community bank before she visited Paris recently. She wanted to know if her debit card would work in France. A bank representative said it would not and advised her to bring lots of cash on her trip and exchange it. Turns out the card worked and

she wasted her money on a pointless exchange. “Incredible ignorance from supposedly trained professionals,” says Miller, an educator from Kitty Hawk, N.C. Part of the problem is us. Somewhere along the way, American travelers lost their healthy sense of skepticism and began believing anyone with the word “expert” in their title. They didn’t bother asking themselves how much these experts really knew or how they earned a living. In Miller’s case, the community bank may not have been the most authoritative resource about the compatibility of her debit card’s network overseas. When bloggers refer to themselves as “travel experts” or “thought leaders,” who are we to question them? “Americans defer to experts,” explains Michael Brein, a psychologist who specializes in travel issues. “If they say they’re a guide or an expert or licensed or whatever, we tend to be too trusting and too readily willing to accept or take their word for it.” Perhaps we’re reluctant to offend someone. One of the fastest ways to tick off a travel agent is to ask what his or her commission is on a cruise or all-inclusive vacation. Want to question the credibility of a guidebook author? Ask how many of the hotels reviewed offered “free” accommodations in exchange for a favorable mention. Maybe it’s time to start asking these questions. If you don’t, the next casualty of this bad travel advice could be your vacation. Christopher Elliott is a consumer advocate and editor at large for National Geographic Traveler.

TAKE PLAY SERIOUSLY ‘Today’ hosts join community effort to build playground Jocelyn McClurg @JocelynMcClurg USA TODAY

NEW YORK It’s the 9 a.m. hour and off-camera, Today show cohosts Matt Lauer and Savannah Guthrie are good-naturedly teasing each other about the day this month they helped build a playground in Passaic, N.J. “Matt had to do all the tricky labor when we were doing the build. Nobody really wanted to trust me with the bolts. I would do one and Matt was like, ‘You’re going to check what she did, right?’ ” Guthrie says with a laugh during a chat in Lauer’s office in Rockefeller Center. Says Lauer: “We had engineers follow Savannah around and check all the nuts.” But joking aside, the project — bringing a state-of-the-art playground to what was once a vast vacant lot in the center of Passaic — is one in which the anchors take serious pride. The just-completed community playground grew out of the NBC morning show’s charitable Shine a Light program. The Today show also has teamed up with USA TODAY on Make a Difference Day 2015 Oct. 24. The annual event is the nation’s largest day of community service as thousands of volunteers across the USA work to improve the lives of others. Volunteering, Guthrie says, has rewards beyond writing a check. “It’s a classic situation where you get far more out of it than you put into it. It also is eye-opening in terms of how you look at your own life and what you think your problems are.” The project began over a year ago with Lauer, 57, and Guthrie, 43, taking a group of Passaic kids to a leafy playground in West Orange, N.J., where they could let their imaginations run wild. In a touching video, the city kids talk about being afraid to go outside because they don’t feel safe and of having nowhere to play. Some of their ideas — including a wishing well — were incorporated into the Passaic playground. The city was chosen, Lauer says, because it has many needs and because community leaders were receptive. A non-profit organization called KaBoom!, which creates play opportunities for poor kids, signed on. Passaic held bake sales to raise money,

and corporate donations helped purchase inventive, modern renditions of swing sets and slides and seesaws. “Where it was gray, it’s now colorful; where there was nothing, there’s now something just inspiring and beautiful,” Guthrie says of the space across from a school. As parents, it touched both Lauer and Guthrie to see the Passaic kids so happy the day the playground opened. Guthrie’s daughter just turned 1 (“I made her a cake which let me tell you was an event in itself, because I am not known for my cooking skills”) and is just starting to walk. “One of the things I can’t wait to do with her is to take her to a park and let her play on

the swings and meet other kids,” Guthrie says. “I think it’s something you can easily take for granted. And then you realize there are a lot of kids for whom that is just not an option.” Lauer, who has three children, says he grew up in a Norman Rockwell world and now has perks and privileges afforded a highly paid morning-show star. And he believes that privilege should be used to help others. “I can use the exposure that I have to make a difference in other people’s lives, and sometimes it’s not that difficult,” he says. “Sometimes it just means showing up for a couple of hours on an afternoon and showing people in a community that you’re with them.”

When it came to the box office, it would have been wise to bet on black. Jack Black. Goosebumps, starring Black as children’s horror author R.L. Stine, stormed its way to $23.5 million at the weekend box office and No. 1 in a crowded field of quality film openings, according to studio estimates. Families turned out for the pre-Halloween tale, which Black tirelessly promoted — from singing on late-night TV with Stephen Colbert to performing a Goosebumps-themed rap on the Internet. “Jack Black was everywhere with his bigger-than-life personality,” says Rentrak senior analyst Paul Dergarabedian. “He really was the best marketing resource, a tireless showman and a large part of the No. 1 opening.” Goosebumps scored 71% positive reviews from critics on RottenTomatoes.com and received an A from audiences on CinemaScore.

HOPPER STONE, COLUMBIA PICTURES

The creatures taking over the town in Goosebumps managed to take over the box office for No. 1 this weekend. The Martian and Matt Damon continued to play strong, taking second place with $21.5 million after the Ridley Scott-directed film won the past two weekends for a box office total of $143.8 million. Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks’ real-life Cold War drama Bridge of Spies opened surprisingly strong with $15.4 million and third place. “The Cold War is especially not

an easy sell. So this was a good start,” says Jeff Bock, box office analyst for Exhibitor Relations. “And Spielberg will have a long run in theaters, especially with any awards considerations. This could play through the year.” Guillermo del Toro’s Gothic love story Crimson Peak, starring Tom Hiddleston, Jessica Chastain and Mia Wasikowska, underperformed in fourth place with $12.8 million.

The tepid start for the admired director hurts Crimson Peak “because it has a short shelf life,” Bock says. “Horror films traditionally gross most of their money in their opening weekends.” Animated Hotel Transylvania 2 rounded out the top five, continuing to pull in audiences in its fourth weekend with $12.3 million ($136.4 million total). With Adam Sandler voicing Dracula and Mel Brooks as his vampire father, the comedy is benefiting from seasonal family interest. Room, the early awards favorite starring Brie Larson and newcomer Jacob Tremblay as a mother and son escaping a trapped life in a single room, had a strong limited opening in four New York and Los Angeles theaters for $120,000, a $30,000 perscreen average. Steve Jobs, directed by Danny Boyle and starring Michael Fassbender as the iconic Apple co-founder, opened in 60 additional theaters ahead of next weekend’s wide release. The drama earned $1.5 million ($2.3 million total) in its second weekend. Final numbers are expected Monday.

Offensive MVP: Tre’ Parmalee missed a game because of a concussion, but still leads the team with 20 receptions, two TD catches and a 16.3-yard average per catch. He also scored a rushing touchdown on a 19-yard reverse. A nononsense senior, Parmalee has set a nice example for young receivers for how to practice, prepare for games and stay reliable in carrying out assignments. Defensive MVP: Playing through pain weekly, junior linebacker Marcquis Roberts (31 tackles, one sack, 83-yard interception return for a touchdown, fumble recovery) gets the edge over junior safety Fish Smithson, who leads the squad in tackles (55) and pass breakups (three), and Ben Goodman, the active senior defensive end who leads the Jayhawks with 7.5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks and four quarterback hurries. Most promising offensive true freshman: Ryan Willis has made two starts at quarterback, and he already looks to be KU’s best quarterback since Todd Reesing. He has a cannon for an arm and delivers an accurate, catchable ball on short, intermediate and long routes. He also has nice instincts side-stepping pressure and scrambling. Everybody plays better when a quarterback is one who plays aggressively, plays to win, not to avoid losing, tries to make good plays instead of trying to avoid bad ones. Jeremiah Booker, who missed the first four games because of a broken collarbone, also has been impressive. He has 10 receptions for 104 yards in two games. Most promising defensive true freshman: When defensive end Dorance Armstrong, a 6-foot-4, 225-pound native of Houston, arrived, the Kansas coaching staff had smiles wider than Armstrong’s wingspan, and it’s easy to see why. He closes so quickly on quarterbacks and has a good motor that will serve him well as he adds pounds throughout his career. Cornerback Tyrone Miller has shown a knack for making plays and is a hard-hitter. If Kansas has the depth at cornerback next season, Miller will move to his natural position of safety and has the potential to develop into an all-conference player, as does Armstrong. Beaty bright spots: He runs organized, up-tempo practices that include instruction from assistants after every play, with every misstep instantly corrected. The corrections

Toronto (ap) — Hip-hop music blared over the loudspeakers in an eerily empty, moodily lit Rogers Centre as Jose Bautista and the Toronto Blue Jays went through an easy workout on an offday in the American League Championship Series. With their backs against the wall again, there’s no place they’d rather be. “We’re down 2-0 right now, we’ve got three games at home. These guys here, they’re comfortable, and

we’ve definitely got the crowd behind us,” outfielder Ben Revere said Sunday. “We definitely feel much more comfortable being back at home.” After Kansas City took the first two games at home, Game 3 is tonight in Toronto. First pitch is set for 7:07 p.m. The Blue Jays’ Marcus Stroman faces Kansas City’s Johnny Cueto in a matchup of two Division Series Game 5 starters. “This series is not over,

not even close,” defending AL champion Royals center fielder Lorenzo Cain said after testing the bounce of the turf and the glare of the light in the closed-roofed stadium. The Blue Jays advanced to the ALCS with a win that featured one of the most bizarre innings in postseason history. Bautista capped that seventh inning with a monster home run — and equally big bat toss. That was the last long

ball the top slugging team in baseball this year has hit. Toronto relied heavily on the home run as it overcame the New York Yankees to win the East and it connected for 123 of its 232 homers this year at home. It then slugged its way to three straight wins over Texas after losing the first two at home in the ALDS. In the chilly air of Kansas City, the Blue Jays scored

Self, Manning coach? Maybe ————

Jayhawks with household-name dads might follow fathers’ footsteps By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Tyler Self, a junior basketball player at Kansas University, and Evan Manning, a senior, will need to make important decisions on their career paths in the not-so-distant-future. Considering their dads — Bill and Danny — are successful in coaching the college game, it seems logical to see if that’s the avenue the KU upperclassmen might want to pursue as well. The answer in both cases? Maybe. “I don’t know exactly

what I want to do. I want to do something with basketball. I’m not sure it’s coaching,” said Self, a 6-foot-2 guard out of Free State High, who, like Manning, is a non-scholarship player. “I wouldn’t rule it out. I think I’d want to work more on the administration side of basketball.” He is on track to graduate in the spring, which will give him a chance next year — his fifth and likely final year on campus (he redshirted in 2013-14) — to continue his studies. “I’ll either take a lighter load or start working on an

MBA or maybe try to get a law degree,” said Self, a sports-management major. Manning, a 6-3 guard also out of Free State High (as well as one year at New Hampton Prep), is on track to graduate this year with a degree in sports manage- Self ment and a minor in business. “I’m keeping my options open,” Manning said, asked about coaching. “I’ve got to weigh the pros, cons, figure what my goals are for the future and what opportunities present themselves.

But West fumbled in Minnesota territory on the next possession, and Smith missed on two deep throws in the final two minutes as the Chiefs fell to 1-5 with a 16-10 setback. “We were very confident. The fumble killed everything,” said West, who had nine carries for 33 yards. “A fumble at that point of the game is crucial. Gotta hold on to it.” The Chiefs also committed eight penalties for 95 yards and lost defensive end Mike DeVito and receiver Jeremy Maclin to concussions.

Kansas University’s 30-20 football loss to visiting Texas Tech on Saturday might go down as the day a bunch of young Jayhawks grew up. Led by true freshman quarterback Ryan Willis, who made his second consecutive start in place of the injured Montell Cozart, the Jayhawks rallied from a 20-0 halftime deficit to pull within three points (23-20) and had possession with five minutes to play in the fourth quarter. A series of late mistakes, most of which could be chalked up to inexperience, cost the Jayhawks (0-6 overall, 0-3 Big 12) the chance to complete the comeback. But the continued strong play of some of the youngest guys on the roster had some of the Kansas veterans believing this was a team headed in the right direction. Willis led the passing attack and set several KU freshman records. Jeremiah Booker (seven catches, 65 yards) and Steven Sims (five, 37) helped lead the receiving corps. And five first-year defensive players finished with three or more tackles, with three contributing sacks. “Those guys make plays,” said senior running back De’Andre Mann, who led the Jayhawks with 107 rushing

Minneapolis (ap) — Alex Smith and the Kansas City Chiefs were finally starting to find a rhythm without star running back Jamaal Charles. The yards were coming in bunches, and a six-point deficit suddenly didn’t seem so bad. Then left tackle Donald Stephenson inadvertently knocked the ball out of the grasp of rookie running back Charcandrick West, a fitting end to a mistake-prone day for the Chiefs. Smith threw for 239 of his 282 yards in the second half, including a 42-yard catchand-run by Albert Wilson that cut Minnesota’s lead to just three points midway through the fourth quar-

AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE

Memphis, Temple lead American surge EAST

By Ralph D. Russo AP College Football Writer

The American Athletic Conference wants to be considered closer in quality to the Power Five conferences than it is to its fellow Group of Five leagues. That claim is backed up by the results this season, including an American uprising in the AP Top 25.

COMMENTARY

Losing all around in college football Lost games, lost minds, lost opportunities, lost Twitter purpose and the vanquished simply lost for words. Call it the Lost Weekend. Seven teams in the Associated Press top 25 got dumped at the prom: No. 8 Florida, No. 9 Texas A&M, No. 12 Michigan, No. 13 Mississippi, No. 18 UCLA, No. 20 Northwestern and No. 21 Boise State. The top teams, like eggnog, have started separating in the middle. Ohio State survived some early-schedule body blows but looks like No. 1 again after Saturday’s wipeout victory against Penn State. Or, maybe it’s Baylor. Any ESPN special on the Bears should be titled “60 for 60.” That’s how many points per game they are averaging (actually 63.8). The shame is we won’t know how good Baylor really is until it actually plays someone in November. Alabama looks like the Crimson City Rollers again after knocking the haggis out of Texas A&M. The Alabama offense led by offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin has assisted in consecutive victories over Texas A&M by the combined score of 100-23. Kiffin is the despised former USC coach who was let go for general incompetency. Texas A&M is led by Kevin Sumlin, the coach many think should be the Trojans’ next coach. Kiffin actually may earn one more crack at USC (University of South Carolina). Louisiana State, which seems to play every week at home or against Western Kentucky, is the last undefeated team standing in the Southeastern Conference. Utah is also refusing to vacate premises, Clemson apparently can’t just be wished away, and Texas Christian has no defense but has vowed to become “Baylor-esqe” in its quest for offensive output. The real story of the weekend, though, is the continuing downward spiral of humanity. No person should have to endure what Michigan punter Blake O’Neill faced after he botched the end of the craziest football ending since Iron Bowl 2013. Coach Jim Harbaugh tried to keep the end of the world in perspective, channeling Churchill as he vowed this horrible event would “put steel in the spine.” The worst was yet to come, though, as some on social media took to attacking O’Neill. n “Kill yourself you just cost us the game … “ n “I hate you please transfer.” n “Go back to Australia.” n “Don’t go to school on Monday.” There have always been wackos in society, we just never had this much instant access to them.

JOEY LOGANO CELEBRATES IN VICTORY LANE after winning the Sprint Car race Sunday in Kansas City, Kansas.

Spin to win: Logano’s victory raises eyebrows Kansas City, Kan. — Joey Logano kept peeking around Matt Kenseth as the laps ticked away at Kansas Speedway, the two of them in entirely different situations in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Logano had nothing to lose. Kenseth had just about everything. So when Logano got under Kenseth entering Turn 1 with about five laps remaining and sent him spinning across the track, it left many eyebrows raised long after the Penske Racing driver pulled away on the final restart to win his second straight Chase race. “That’s good, hard racing,” Logano said. “We were racing each other really hard. I felt like I got fenced twice. He raced me hard so I raced him back.” Logano was already guaranteed his spot in the next round of the Chase after his victory at Charlotte, though. After a disastrous race a week ago, Kenseth’s team arrived at Kansas knowing a victory this weekend or next weekend at unpredictable Talladega might be the only way he could make it to the final eight in the “eliminator” round of the playoffs. That’s why Kenseth was doing everything possible to block Logano. “I’m really disappointed,” Kenseth said. “I was running the lane he wanted to run in, but my goodness, isn’t this racing? Strategically, I think it wasn’t the smartest move on his part. He’ll probably sleep good tonight. I hope he enjoys that one. It’s not what I would have done.” Kenseth wound up leading a race-high 153 laps, but his wild ride with a handful to go dropped him to 14th in the race and, more importantly, last among the 12 drivers in the title race. “I’m sure we’ll talk about it,” Logano said after hopping out of his No. 22 Ford. “I just felt like I raced hard. I got fenced twice. I wasn’t going to put up with it.” Uh, Joey, you sure about that chat? “I won’t talk to Joey. I don’t have anything to talk to him about,” Kenseth said. “I’m one of the only guys that I think hasn’t been into it yet with Joey, and I’ve always raced him with a ton

of respect. I’ve actually been one of his biggest fans. I’m certainly not anymore.” Already eliminated from contention, Jimmie Johnson had a strong car all day and wound up behind Hamlin in third. Kasey Kahne was fourth, followed by Chase drivers Kyle Busch and Kurt Busch. Ryan Blaney was seventh, followed by more title contenders in Carl Edwards, pole sitter Brad Keselowski, Jeff Gordon and Ryan Newman.

Grillo wins PGA debut Napa, Calif. — Emiliano Grillo of Argentina won his PGA Tour rookie debut Sunday at the Frys.com Open by holing a 25-foot birdie putt on the 18th for a 3-under 69, and then making the most out of a second chance in the playoff to beat Kevin Na. Nearly as impressive as his closing birdie was the way the 23-year-old Argentine bounced back from a shocking miss. Grillo had a three-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole to win and was stunned when it caught the left lip and spun away. Then, he drove into the fairway bunker on the 18th on the second extra hole with Na in the fairway. The next mistake belonged to Na. He used driver off the fairway for the second time and hooked it behind a tree, leaving him little chance of getting his third shot on the green. Na wound up with a bogey. Grillo hit a bold approach shot over the edge of a bunker to just inside 10 feet. Needing two putts for the win, he made it for birdie.

Thompson takes LPGA title Incheon, South Korea — Lexi Thompson broke out of a crowded pack to win the LPGA KEB Hana Bank Championship for her second victory of the year and sixth overall. The 20-year-old American closed with a 3-under 69 to beat Taiwan’s Yani Tseng and South Korea’s Sung Hyun Park by a stroke on Sky 72’s Ocean Course.

“I want to do something competitive, whether in sports or the stock market, something along those lines,” Manning added. “I want to do something that’s team oriented. I like working with people and doing stuff as a team, accomplishing goals. That’s one of my favorite things.” Manning so far in his career has scored 15 points and dished four assists vs. seven turnovers in three seasons. Self has six points, three assists and five turnovers in his two seasons. Both logged some playing time at last summer’s World University Games. Self made a threepointer while playing 18 minutes against Switzerland. He played five minutes versus Chile and two in the quarterfinal victory over Lithuania. Manning scored two points vs. Chile and also played 19 minutes against Switzerland, grabbing four rebounds with a steal. He played two minutes vs. Lithuania. “Tyler played better than me,” Manning said. “I turned it over too much. It was a fun trip. We learned a lot as a team and got better.” “I think going to South Korea helped us and showed us some things we can do and work on as well, which is pretty exciting. I think we have a chance to be pretty good,” Self said of the 2015-16 Jayhawks. Both Self and Manning said they’ve thoroughly enjoyed their time at KU. Neither wishes he had gone to, say, a lowerlevel school and garnered more playing time. “This is the best choice I’ve ever made,” Manning said. “I love this place, love this university. To be part of something as big as Kansas basketball ... the little piece I am, it’s been unbelievable.” Noted Self: “I don’t think about that too

much. I like where I’m at. I love this university, love this team. It’s not something that crosses my mind.” The J-W spoke with each player on a variety of topics. Self on freshman forward Cheick Diallo: “He has some stuff to learn. He tries hard. He shows he has that motor everybody talks about and he’s eager to learn.” Self on what would be a perfect junior year: “Hopefully we could put ourselves in position to compete for another Big 12 title, play well in the Big 12 tournament and try to make a run in the postseason.” Manning, on the team playing with a 30-second clock instead of 35 this season: “Coach all summer was challenging guys to play faster and faster,” he said of the 24-second clock used at the World Games. “After playing and practicing over time it became second nature. Guys get the ball, swing it side to side a couple times, the defense breaks down, Wayne (Selden) gets in the paint or makes a play for Perry (Ellis). It’s what guys focused on, making plays for others. Things we normally do with the 35-second clock we had to do faster.” Manning on his dad, former KU All-American Danny Manning, who is coach at Wake Forest: “It’s cool. You walk around and see pictures of him everywhere. It motivates you to keep working hard. Things paid off for him in the end. That’s my goal, to be successful in whatever I do. He is my role model. He’s proud of the fact I’m here. It’s cool it’s his alma mater. Playing for coach Self has been a blessing.” l

Giles update: Harry Giles, a 6-10 senior forward who is ranked No. 2 nationally by Rivals. com, will not visit North Carolina, Zagsblog.com reports. He has visited KU, Wake Forest and Kentucky, with a visit to Duke slated for Halloween weekend.

So much so, security should be beefed up for the ALCS. No more deep alleys of Kauffman Stadium where their drives died. No more unfriendly fans who played tricks with Ryan Goins on the flyball that changed the tenor of Game 2, setting off a fiverun rally that led to a 6-3 come-from-behind win for the Royals. “Kansas City’s park is really big,” Revere said. “Some of the balls we were hitting there, they were going nowhere. Now we’re back home, some of those balls that were crushed are going to go over the heads or go in the gaps more.” Of course, the Blue Jays will have to figure out a way to beat Cueto and his multitude of pitches.

Yost taps Young to start Game 4 for Kansas City Toronto (ap) — Royals manager Ned Yost has chosen Chris Young over Kris Medlen as his starter for Game 4 of the ALCS. Young has only made two starts since July 28, but they were good ones. He allowed one run in 111⁄3 innings over those two outings, with his final start coming Oct. 2. “He’s got really good numbers against these guys,” Yost said. “They’re both great choices, but, you know, Chris Young, his last two starts of the year were really, really good for us. We feel like he Reds has found his dominant form after struggling in late summer. “He’s just a guy that is constantly trying to change your timing at the plate, whether it’s with his quick pitch or his shimmy on the mound and he’s got six pitches,” Blue Jays center fielder Kevin Pillar said.” But ultimately you’ve got to throw the ball over the plate and that’s what we’re trying to do is hit his mistakes.”

Overall, he was 11-6 in 34 appearances — 18 starts — this year. Young faced the Blue Jays once this year, a 7-5 loss on July 11. Edwin Encarnacion hit a two-run shot and Young yielded five hits and three runs over six innings. But over his 11-year career, Young has held current members of the Blue Jays to a .229 average (22 for 96) with two homers. Cueto has had success against Blue Jays players. He’s only allowed two homers in career 88 plate appearances, with Troy Tulowitzki, with Colorado, and Edwin Encarnacion going deep. “I’m going to toe the rubber and give everything I’ve got and I’m going to take the same approach as I did the previous game and just be ready to go, ready to pitch,” he said through a translator.

the Chiefs’ offense to find itself after losing Charles for the season last week because of a knee injury. The unit managed 51 yards while the Chiefs were charged with 50 yards in penalties in the first half as the Vikings jumped to 10-0 lead. Coach Andy Reid called the sloppiness “completely unacceptable.” “There were so many self-inflicted things,” Smith said. “The penalties, you can’t even get going when you’re just going backwards. Especially against a team like that on the road. It makes it impossible.” The yellow flags flew all afternoon, most critically against the Chiefs. Cornerback Steven Nelson was called for roughing the passer on a third-and-six incompletion midway through the second quarter, extending a drive that ended with Teddy Bridgewater’s short touchdown pass to Kyle Rudolph that put the Vikings up 10-0. The Chiefs blew their best chance late in the third quarter, when Anthony Sherman and West were stymied on thirdand-one and fourth-andone at the Minnesota seven. Both Reid and West maintained that the running back’s knee never touched the ground, but the play was not reviewable. The defense did keep the Chiefs in the game, though. Ron Parker intercepted Teddy Bridgewater in the end zone to stop one drive and Marcus Peters picked him off in the fourth quarter to set up Wilson’s score on a screen pass. The Chiefs also held Adrian Peterson to 60 yards rushing on 26 carries, a paltry 2.3 yards per attempt. Kansas City had two cracks to take the lead in the last five minutes. The first drive ended with West’s fumble and the second with consecutive incompletions to Wilson deep down the field. “Gotta hit those,” Smith lamented. Bridgewater completed 17 of 31 passes for 249 yards and a touchdown to Kyle Rudolph. Vikings rookie Stephon Diggs added seven catches for 129 yards in his first career start. Travis Kelce had five catches for 88 yards for the Chiefs, all of which came in the second half. “In the second half we put ourselves in a position to win the game and we didn’t finish it,” Reid said. “Way too many penalties, way too many sacks, turnovers, all those things. Can’t do that.”

NLCS

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Murphy homers again; Mets up 2-0 New York (ap) — Say this for the Daniel Murphy and the New York Mets: They have their October formula down and are sticking with it. Murphy homered off yet another ace to provide an early cushion for Noah Syndergaard, and the Mets breezed past Jake Arrieta the Chicago Cubs 4-1 Sunday night for a 2-0 lead in a surprisingly one-sided NL Championship Series. Power, pitching, plus some dazzling defense. Confidence is surging. “We’ve beaten some of the best the game has to offer,” Mets captain David Wright said. Arrieta, baseball’s most dominant pitcher

Curtis Granderson robbed Chris Coghlan of leaping grab at the cen- pair of bases and scored a likely home run with a ter-field wall, swiped a two runs for the Mets.

After beating Clayton Kershaw, Zack Greinke, Jon Lester and Arrieta, the Mets are two wins from reaching their first World Series since 2000. New York starts NL Rookie of the Year Jacob deGrom when the series resumes Tuesday night at Wrigley Field. Rookie left-hander Steven Matz is set for Game 4 followed by Game 1 winner Matt Harvey on Thursday. “They don’t have the credentials that Kershaw and Greinke and Lester and Arrieta have, but they’re going to be good pitchers,” Mets manager Terry Collins said. “We think we can stack up with anybody.” Chicago goes with Kyle Hendricks on Tuesday,

part of the less-than-imposing back end of its rotation. If the long-downtrodden Cubs are to reach the World Series for the first time since 1945, they must first force the bestof-seven NLCS back to Citi Field next weekend. “We’re all about onegame winning streaks,” Chicago manager Joe Maddon said. “I know it’s psychobabble 101, but it actually works.” After homering off Kershaw, Greinke and Lester, Murphy added his fifth home run of the postseason, giving him eight RBIs in seven games. He’s one away from matching Carlos Beltran’s record of homering in five straight postseason games.
