After a rainy day recent-ly, Jim Didas drove his truck down Munson Road and made a left up a grassy hill.

He pulled up to a barb-wire fence and removed it and proceeded through a muddy and bumpy terrain.

The purpose of the wire with clusters of short, sharp spikes is to keep live-

stock in a certain location. “It’s all pasture,” Didas

said about the land. “It truly is agriculture right now.”

But behind that fence sits a rock quarry, which was used to provide limestone for the Milford Lake proj-ect. It’s been closed since 1965.

That’s something the owner of Range and Civil Construction (RACC), and property owner Scott John-

son was hoping to change Thursday night.

Following several presen-tations, tabled public hear-ings, and pleas from resi-dents — the Metropolitan Planning Commission (MPC) has denied their request for a Conditional Use Permit to reopen and operate the quarry on the property near Munson Road, between Rucker Road and K-244 Highway.

Katy Mortimer wants to help give back to the hospital that made the last four months of her son’s life as com-fortable and hope-ful as possible.

About 15 months ago, Katy and her husband Jason Mortimer lost their 4-year-old son, Brady, to a rare brain can-cer.

Brady died at St. Jude Children’s Research Hos-

pital in Memphis, Tenn., four months after he was diagnosed.

On Saturday, Mortimer will join thousands of people who will be participating in St. Jude Thanks and Giving walks in more than 75 cit-ies, including Kan-sas City.

Katy is traveling to Louisville to walk and share her family’s St. Jude

experience with area media.

Maybe — just maybe — the Junction City Commis-sion tonight will approve a new animal code.

The code, which first reached the commission in September, is expected to be discussed at tonight’s meeting, which is sched-uled for 7 p.m. at the munic-ipal building, 700 N.

Jefferson St. For more than a year, the

document has been recre-ated and tweaked using the

input from many differ-ent stake-holders.

The ani-mal code in front of c o m m i s -sioners fea-tures new definitions

for animal shelters and fos-ter homes. It also changes the law on tethering ani-mals and the amount of animals allowed per prop-erty.

Amanda Kim Stairrett • 1st Infantry Division Public AffairsThe 1st Infantry Division and Fort Riley welcomed a new deputy commanding general for readiness during a Nov. 15 Victory Honors Ceremony at division headquarters. Brig. Christopher Ghika, his wife Clare and their two children come to Fort Riley from England. The general started his military career in 1993 after being commissioned from the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and joining the 1st Bat-talion Irish Guards. He served as a battalion commander, leading its soldiers to a tour in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, from 2010 to 2011. He spent 15 months working on army personnel policy before being selected for his current assignment. Ghika fills a position on the 1st Infantry Division staff left by Brig. Felix G. Gedney this summer. Gedney was the first general from the United Kingdom to serve in the Big Red One.

FORT RILEY — The post was certified as a Storm Ready Community Sept. 3 by the National Weather Service.

Chad Omitt, warning coordination meteorolo-gist, National Weather Service, Topeka, presented Ward Phillips, chief, Plans and Protection Branch, Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security, and Chris Hallenbeck, emergency management specialist, Emergency Management Office, DPTMS, with a Storm Ready proclamation at the Oct. 31 Victory Wel-come at Riley’s Conference Center.

“Storm Ready is a pro-gram that was created 15 years ago by the National Weather Service,” Omitt said. “It increases pre-paredness for severe weather threats through education and planning and also recovery from a severe weather event.”

Fort Riley is one of 58 military installations to earn the certification. To be deemed Storm Ready, Fort Riley had to meet sev-eral areas of criteria. “Our installation was already going above and beyond the criteria for Storm Ready in the area of notifi-cation. We currently have 48 giant voice towers, 19 tornado sirens, mobile alert systems and email alert systems that we use to alert our community of any severe weather event,” Hallenbeck said.

Other criteria for the certification included weather monitoring, which Fort Riley meets with its own weather detachment, he said, and promotion of community preparedness through education, which Fort Riley meets through Ready Army and other initia-tives.

“Some of the ways that we provide information to our community are the Ready Army program, AtHOC alert notifications, social media and monthly awareness bulletins,” Hal-lenbeck said. “It is also important for our commu-nity to know that Fort Riley has our own weather detachment. The 2nd Weather Detachment (United States Air Force) provides weather warn-ings and weather adviso-ries to the Fort Riley Installation.”

Aside from other mili-tary installations being certified as Storm Ready, many other counties and communities across the U.S. are certified as well. Although Kansas is known for tornadoes, Omitt said, the greater and more like-ly threat to affect people is severe winter weather.

“I think Storm Ready communities are better prepared to save lives and reduce the impact from severe weather and storms,” Omitt said. “No community is storm-proof, but Storm Ready helps lessen the negative effects of severe weather.”

Hallenbeck explained why it is even more impor-tant for Fort Riley to be storm-ready.

“Fort Riley constantly has new people from all types of geographical regions. Many may not have any experience with severe winter weather or severe spring weather like we do here. It is important and beneficial that we have several methods to get awareness information about severe weather out to the community,” Hal-lenbeck said.

FORT RILEY — A little more than a year ago, Sgt. Seth Kotouc, Company B, Warrior Transition Battalion, was struck by tragedy during a rocket attack at Forward Operating Base Shank, Afghanistan.

“Shrapnel exploded in my right hand and lower half of my vertebrate. This resulted in the complete severing of my spinal cord,” Kotouc said. “After the explosion, I knew I couldn’t feel my legs. At the time, I just knew I was OK because I was still breathing.”

According to his WTB nurse case manager, Leona Walker, this is where his story of resiliency began.

Since the attack, Kotouc has focused on gaining strength and independence, and he knows his mission is to heal,

Walker said. “By looking at him, you would think

his injury happened five years ago, not a year ago,” she said. “That’s how incredible he is. There is a light that shines from within, and he is the epito-me of what a wounded warrior should look like when they are finished with their transition.”

The 32-year-old native of Mount Ayr, Iowa, is the only paraplegic at the WTB and the only paraplegic Walker has worked with during her six years of employment at the WTB.

He is the type of Soldier who con-stantly sets goals and accepts challeng-es, said Staff Sgt. James Johnson, squad leader, Co. B, WTB.

“We have fall drills where we take him out of his chair once a month to see how well he can get back into his chair,” he said. “He assists with clean up and does his part. He’s had leadership posi-tions where he directs traffic and makes things happen. He is a (noncommis-sioned officer), and that has not changed.”

Soldiers and cadre don’t give Kotouc special treatment, Walker said, because

he isn’t needy, nor does he want special treatment.

“One of his early goals was not to be a bother to his peers,” she said. “He even goes to the hospital by himself without asking anyone to push him. He may get fatigued, but he will take his breaks and move on.”

He is extremely independent, orga-nized and dedicated to every aspect of his care, Johnson said.

“I don’t feel like we’re babysitting him,” he said. “I feel like we are assist-ing him in obtaining his goals. An example of this is all soldiers at WTB are required to develop a plan for life post injury, which includes taking col-lege courses or finding employment on Fort Riley.”

“Kotouc sought employment on his own and currently works at garrison intelligence and security,” Johnson added. “That just shows the level of commitment he has to his care, healing and transition.”

Kotouc has served on active duty for four years, which includes as an intelli-gence analyst, with assignments in South Korea and Germany.

CHAPMAN — Michael Simmons is ready to bring a few changes to the volun-teer fire department.

At this week’s Chapman City Council meeting, the recently appointed fire chief said those changes include securing equip-ment for the 14 firefighters, updating past fire reports

and making sure the department takes pride in its community activities.

Simmons said teaching and practicing safety will be his top priority.

That focus also goes for the equipment he’d like to look into acquiring.

The equipment doesn’t have to be the newest, but it should work properly, he told the council.

“It should be safe equip-

ment for when it does come time to use it,” Simmons said.

Chapman City Adminis-trator Gerry Bieker said Simmons will be a good fit for the department and the city. “I look very much for-ward to working with Mike,” Bieker said. “He brings a wealth of knowl-edge and can move our department along very quickly.”

Simmons, who will be paid $200 per month, cur-rently is a firefighter in Manhattan, although he lives in Chapman.

He’s worked at the Man-hattan Fire Department for two years. Before then, he was a firefighter in Hays for six years.

He told the city council his job won’t get in the way with his Chapman duties because of his shift sched-

ule in Manhattan.“It gives you quite a bit

of time to do things besides,” he said. Simmons added Manhattan has enough firefighters now that the department doesn’t have to call in off-duty per-sonnel.

“If they (ever) called me, and I’m this far away, there’s a couple blocks that are lit up somewhere,” he said.

Junction City’s Cheryl Raborn knows a phone scam when she hears it.

However, she’s con-cerned others may be bul-lied into giving in on a phone scam that she avoid-ed recently.

Raborn said she and her husband were targeted recently as subscribers to TV Guide.

During a 30-minute peri-od of time recently, the scammers called three times, claiming to be from the billing department of TV Guide, a publication they do subscribe to.

Raborn said they told

her husband they had over-charged for the subscrip-tion and wanted a credit card number to provide a refund.

She said different people called and provided differ-ent amounts on what the overcharge was. Her hus-band continued to tell the callers that he was not going to provide a credit card number. They wouldn’t give up.

“I called TV Guide and they told me they don’t do any business over the phone,” Raborn said.

It wasn’t until the fifth call within a day and a half that Raborn took the phone

and made sure they didn’t call back.

She told the person who had called that she knew he wasn’t from the billing department and told him never to call again.

Raborn said the caller was persistent and contin-ued to tell her he was from the billing department.

Raborn believes that is just an effort to intimidate older people into doing something.

“When someone gets aggressive, some people would back down,” she said.

Raborn didn’t. Now she just wants others to know

about the scam so they aren’t hurt.

A representative of the Geary County Sheriff ’s Department said the department recently had received similar reports of a phone scam in which the callers have been claiming to be from TV Guide.

While the Junction City Police Department hadn’t had any reports of that nature, Lt. Jeff Childs sug-gested people “use com-mon sense” to avoid being scammed.

“Generally, if you didn’t

sign up for something, you’re not going to be con-tacted,” he said.

However, Raborn said this situation is not like that. She thought the way the person on the other end of the phone was pushing, some people might give in.

Raborn said the man calling continued to stick to his story of being part of the TV Guide billing department despite her telling him she knew he couldn’t be.

“Some people have no soul,” she said.

Headlines from around the worldAssociated Press

‘Palestine’ casts first UN General Assembly vote

UNITED NATIONS — Palestine’s U.N. delegation has cast its first routine General Assembly ballot to a warm round of applause, which its ambas-sador calls a symbolic step toward full membership in the world body.

U.N. Ambassador Riyad Mansour was part of the assembly’s election of a judge for the International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia on Monday. Koffi Kumelio Afande of Togo was elected to the court.

It was the first time that a Palestinian “state” voted in the General Assembly, almost a year after the 193-nation body elevated it to non-member U.N. observer state, the same status the Vatican holds.

The Palestinians now have access to U.N. agen-cies and international bodies, including the International Criminal Court.

Full U.N. membership requires Security Council approval, with no vetoes.

Outside political groups coalescing

around ClintonWASHINGTON — As

Hillary Rodham Clinton privately weighs a second White House run, pieces of the Democratic estab-lishment are beginning to fall into place publicly to help her possible candida-cy.

Several super political action committees are col-lectively acting as an early de facto campaign organi-zation to ensure Clinton is ready to compete vigor-ously if she decides to try again to become the first female president.

They’re building a net-work without her direct consent.

But she’s not objecting either, and some Demo-crats are interpreting that as encouragement to push forward in anticipation of a campaign.

“There’s a lot of energy out there and it would be a mistake not to channel and use it as an opportu-nity to organize,” said

Craig Smith, an adviser to Ready for Hillary.

The super PAC Ameri-can Bridge 21st Century has launched Correct the Record, a group staffed by former Clinton aides who intend to defend the for-mer secretary of state and other potential 2016 candi-dates against Republican critics. Priorities USA Action, which ran searing ads against rivals of Pres-ident Barack Obama to support his re-election, is discussing bringing onboard a former White House chief of staff under her husband.

Ready for Hillary, formed after the 2012 elec-tions, is working to keep grass-roots supporters around the country ener-gized.

And EMILY’s List, a group that has 3 million members and supports women candidates who back abortion rights, has been holding forums pro-moting the need to elect the America’s first female president.

Democrats have high-lighted polls showing that Clinton would be an early favorite for the party’s nomination if she sought the White House again.

While this work goes on behind the scenes, Clinton has been staying in the public eye by traveling the country to speak before trade groups and to party supporters.

She also plans to release a book next year about her time at the State Depart-ment, giving her a plat-form to tour nation before the 2014 midterm elec-tions.

On Tuesday, American Bridge and the liberal-leaning Media Matters plan to hold a daylong conference on in San Francisco, where about 80 prospective donors and financial backers will hear from Smith, former Vice President Al Gore and Democratic strate-gists James Carville and Paul Begala, longtime advisers to former Presi-dent Bill Clinton.

Carville has promoted a potential Hillary Clinton candidacy, and Begala is a consultant to Priorities USA Action.

An organizer of the San Francisco conference is Susie Tompkins Buell, a co-founder of the Esprit clothing company and a longtime friend of the Clintons who is also a finance co-chair of Ready for Hillary.

Many donors attending the conference have pledged $100,000 or more to the two groups, which hope to raise $21 million by the end of 2013 and $25 million next year.

Bill Clinton addressed a similar closed-door Media Matters/American Bridge conference in May in New York, where he thanked

the organization for its efforts, according to a per-son who attended.

Priorities USA has been in discussions with for-mer Obama 2012 campaign manager Jim Messina and with John Podesta, a for-mer White House chief of staff under President Clinton, about roles with the super PAC, according to people familiar with the talks.

They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to openly discuss the talks that Buzzfeed first report-ed.

Ready for Hillary, mean-while, held a strategy ses-sion last week in New York and has been building a network of activists who want to help with an even-tual Clinton campaign. About 600,000 people have signed its petition urging her to run, and more than 25,000 have given money — most in symbolic dona-tions of $20.16.

The group recently acquired a 50-state voter database to help it further build its network — and persuade Clinton to run.

EMILY’s List, which has conducted polling into voters’ perceptions of women in leadership posi-tions, has a forum coming up — in Nevada in Janu-ary — following two in other early voting states of Iowa and New Hamp-shire.

“There is a growing understanding here that we may be able to break that final and hardest glass ceiling in the White House,” said Stephanie Schriock, the organiza-tion’s president.

Since leaving the Obama administration, the for-mer first lady has limited her political activity to the successful campaigns of two longtime allies — Gov.-elect Terry McAu-liffe in Virginia and New York Mayor-elect Bill de Blasio.

She also has headlined several fundraisers for her family’s foundation and recently sat next to Hollywood film producer Jeffrey Katzenberg, a top donor to Priorities USA, during a Los Angeles charity event.

Not everyone is cheer-ing her on. Republicans say the outside groups are casting Clinton as inevi-table, and they predict that will backfire if she runs.

“Hillary’s allies tried this exact playbook eight years ago and it didn’t work,” said Tim Miller, executive director of America Rising PAC, which has been critical of Clinton’s handling of the fatal attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya.

The Republican-backed group helped spur the decision to form Correct the Record, which wants to rapidly respond to Republican criticism well before 2016.

One of the group’s early hires was Burns Strider, a former adviser to Hillary Clinton on faith-based outreach.

David Brock, chairman of American Bridge, which is behind Correct the Record, recently released a book called “The Benghazi Hoax,” seeking to rebut GOP crit-icism of Clinton.

Democrats say past campaigns have taught them that they need to organize and spend early to stay in power.

“The divisions of labor that you’re finding right now is a manifestation of making sure that we spend those resources as widely and efficiently as we can,” said Mitch Stewart, a for-mer Obama campaign official.

He’s now advising Ready for Hillary.

Cuba seeks Mexican businessman in

corruption probeHAVANA — Cuba has

summoned a Mexican businessman in connec-tion with a corruption investigation, echoing pre-vious cases where foreign-ers were charged in absen-tia and had their local businesses seized.

The government’s Offi-cial Gazette says Alfredo Jaime Capetillo has until Wednesday to present himself to authorities.

The Gazette says the 57-year-old Mexican national is accused of bribery, but does not give further details.

It adds that if he fails to appear, officials will take further, unspecified steps.

Capetillo’s whereabouts are not immediately clear. Phone calls to the Panama offices of his company, International ABC Import-Export, were not answered Monday.

Authorities have used the Gazette before to announce graft investiga-tions targeting foreign business owners, such as Chilean brothers Max and Marcel Marambio.

Both were later sen-tenced in absentia to long prison terms.

Bank teller pleads guilty to embezzling

TOPEKA — A 32-year-old former southwest Kansas bank employee has pleaded guilty to embezzling money from her employer and helping stage a robbery to cover up the theft.

Amber Gutierrez of Ulysses pleaded guilty Mon-day to one count of theft from a bank.

She admitted in her plea that she and other former bank employees stole from the bank and staged the robbery.

Prosecutors say Gutierr-ez was head teller from 2008 to July 2010 when she and two co-defendants embez-zled a little more than $84,000 from Western State Bank in Ulysses. Gutierrez aided and abetted the staged robbery July 24, 2010.

Prosecutors say she and co-defendants took nearly $25,000 more from the bank after the robbery.

Gutierrez is to be sen-tenced Feb. 4.

Another viewThe Affordable Care Act — as compared

to what?By Caroline PoPlin

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Republicans can hardly believe their good luck. The Obama administration has once again snatched defeat from the jaws of vic-

tory. After successfully holding off Republican efforts

to destroy Obamacare by shutting down the gov-ernment and threatening default, the administra-tion badly bungled the rollout of the crown jewel of health reform: the insurance exchanges. (No sur-prise to those of us who wrestle with computers daily.)

Somehow administration leaders also failed to anticipate the predictable response of insurance companies to a perfect opportunity to raise premi-ums wholesale, while blaming someone else.

Nevertheless, we need to keep in mind that even as they gleefully tear into the ACA, Republicans have not offered an alternative.

On reflection, however, this is no surprise. Republicans don’t see a problem with health care in America. Insurers can sell what they chose to whom they chose; people can select policies they like and can afford, or save their money for other things. This is how markets work.

The only change Republicans would make is deregulation, so insurers and good prospects can find one another more easily across state lines.

As Ronald Reagan said: “Government is not the solution to the problem, government (in this case, the ACA) is the problem.”

For conservatives, health insurance and health care are ordinary commodities to be traded in the marketplace, just like automobile insurance and automobiles.

But health care is not just another item in the shopping cart. As the African-American spiritual observed, “If living were something that money could buy, the rich would live and the poor would die.”

And that is where we are in the 21st century. Health care is a matter of life and death. Our medi-cine is highly effective. Today, we can cure, or treat, diseases that were once fatal — heart attacks, many cancers, even HIV. That is, if you have the money. Today rich Americans live, on average, five years longer than poor citizens.

Nor is health insurance an ordinary insurance product.

Illness today is not evenly distributed across the population. Some 10 percent of people are respon-sible for 60 percent of health-care costs in the United States. Because most illness continues for many years after diagnosis, these people are easy to identify: patients with multiple sclerosis, conges-tive heart failure, lymphoma.

No one wants to pay for the sick people. A free market with lots of choices among multiple insur-ers, risk pools, policies with all sorts of benefits and price structures, allows insurers and healthy individuals to avoid the sick.

The result? The people who need health care the most have the most difficulty getting insurance that covers it. Doesn’t this defeat the whole purpose of the exercise?

That, however, is the Republican alternative to the ACA. The ACA was an effort to preserve a pri-vate health insurance market, using regulation to achieve a better result.

There is a third option. If everyone is in the same, large, pool, everything medically necessary is covered, insurers are paid merely to process claims, and premiums are scaled to income, there is enough money to cover everyone at reasonable cost without elaborate, expensive, error-prone computer programs and geniuses to run them. People will be able to choose their doctors and hos-pitals. (And the rich can always buy more if they want.)

A crazy, wild-eyed socialist nightmare? No, this is Medicare, a familiar, popular, competently-run public insurance system that everyone’s parents or grandparents rely on.

Person-for-person, disease-for-disease, Medicare is the cheapest, most efficient health insurance program in the country. (There is virtue in simplic-ity.) Medicare already controls health care costs better than private insurers, and with a few tweaks, could do much more, forcing prices down to the level citizens of every other advanced democracy pay, with no sacrifice in quality.

Given the alternatives, maybe Medicare-for-all deserves a second look.

Nothing ‘nice’ about the statehouseWhat could be nicer than the

governor’s plan to spend $9 million of Kansas’ $48 million

in surplus federal Temporary Assis-tance for Needy Family (TANF) money on a statewide program to boost read-ing skills for Kansas children in spe-cifically non-school programs?

Well, this being the Statehouse, where virtually nothing is just “nice,” already this new idea is being dissect-ed. That’s what happens in the State-house.

The idea is aimed, though relatively loosely, at children who qualify for free or reduced price lunches under federal programs where the feds pay for those free school lunches.

That’s the target, poor kids who sta-tistically aren’t generally reading at their grade level. Say, a third grader who reads like a first-grader. Those kids need help, of course, and Gov. Sam Brownback realizes it and sees the TANF money as a fund from which to contract with nonprofit organizations to teach after-school sessions for those kids through non-school programs.

You gotta wonder why the state has some $48 million in TANF funds just lying around, but that’s just one of those issues that grows from the pro-gram. Figure some legislators are going to be wondering how they can get their hands on that $48 million for other uses. Maybe more aid to the poor ... but

don’t count on it. They’ll get inventive ... maybe using the money for meals for unemployed prison inmates?

The actual after-school program? Probably a little play time, a snack and someone helping the kids read. Not necessarily an accredited teacher, but some staffer, probably paid, who finds something to interest the children and get them reading in a non-classroom facility.

It’ll undoubtedly work. Figure many of the kids who will use this program aren’t going home to read with their parents, or there aren’t a lot of books around their homes, anyhow, and the less formal after-school program pro-vides a second try at improving their reading skills in a fun, not academic atmosphere.

This goes another way. If a class-room teacher has, say, five kids in a formal in-school class who aren’t read-ing as well as they should, the teacher probably spends more time on the slow-readers, and the proficient readers in

the classroom get less important teach-er time.

But, if testing after a year of the pro-gram shows notable improvement in those reading skills, which it probably will ... we’re figuring that there are legislators who will decide, do we really need to spend as much as we do on K-12 education? Do teachers need to be cer-tified and get job-protecting tenure ... which flows into should automatic pay-roll deductions for teacher union dues be allowed?

The better this program works — and if it improves reading skills which are a key to better learning overall and later on, better chances for getting a jobs and paying taxes and such — the more some lawmakers are going to look for ways to reduce conventional school funding…

Nice idea, one the Legislature can’t trip at the starting line as it did when it shot down Brownback’s “read at third-grade level or don’t go to fourth grade.” But there are other agendas likely to be spinning outside the governor’s office.

Count on it ...

November is best monthBy GeorGe nixon Shuler

Special to The Daily Union

This has always been my favorite month — when things finally cool down and the leaves are fall-

ing. Not just because my wife of 34 years was born in November. Two female ex-bosses who treated me awful-ly also were. I don’t believe in astrology, but there is something to how that hap-pened.

I mostly lived the rest of my life in two of the most humid places in the U.S. — San Antonio and Houston, Texas — and one of the most arid — Barstow, California. I love all three but the cold, wet, wind, snow, sleet, rain, hail, storms, ice, and slush here is all delight-ful to me.

I don’t like how it can mess up your plans, but I love the beauty and how it slows things down. I don’t have any sympathy for those who whine about snowstorms.

In winter, people are kinder to one another: “You’re going to be late because of the snowstorm? No prob-lem. Take your time, be careful, and drive safely. See you when you get here.”

It kind of serves as a lead-in to “The Christmas Spirit,” that charitable feel-ing folks get toward hungry children and the lonely old they ignore the other 10 or 11 months of the year. Neighbors greet one another. People tip clerks.

The waitress who normally gets a single Washington from a table of grumpy old men who sit kvetching all

morning might get a Grant or a Frank-lin. Bosses act like they really haven’t sold their soul to the devil even though the rest of the year you’d know they did. Landlords wait to evict families in January. It’s the beginning of a magic time.

One of my heroes, the novelist Kurt Vonnegut Jr., was a Prisoner of War of the Germans in World War II. Von-negut saw the firebombing of Dresden as a POW and it made him fiercely anti-war.

He wrote an essay about how he hated that after World War II ended they changed Nov. 11, which had been called Armistice Day, to Veterans’ Day, even though he was one of the veterans honored.

Vonnegut remembered that the orig-inal Armistice Day was to commemo-rate the ending of the First World War at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. He said that as a schoolboy in Indiana they always had a moment of silence at 11 a.m. to commemorate the peace.

I like that and wish we could return to that, but, the way things are now, it’d have to go through so many bureau-cratic hurdles an effort to do it would probably not be worth it.

We’ve grown as a nation since the time of the Vietnam War, a war that was unjust but for which we ceased to honor the warriors except the prison-ers of war.

Now people are better about thank-ing veterans for their service regard-less of where the politicians send them.

Thanksgiving as a national holiday is considered to be based it on the tradi-tion of the late fall feast of Plymouth’s Pilgrim settlers and the neighboring First Nations people. It’s a nice story and a nice whitewash of our atrocities against Native Americans. Right now efforts are underway to counter stereo-types of marauding tomahawk wield-ing natives crying “Ugh!” which mostly existed in fictitious movies like those of the racist director John Ford.

Dismissing the idea sports teams with colorful tribal titles should be renamed is to cling much too strongly to the past.

Regardless of its origins a feast day at this time of year to honor God and join with family and friends is appro-priate. I’m all for separation of church and state, but I hope we never lose hav-ing Thanksgiving and Christmas as national holidays.

Often in workplaces that remain open on such days like hospitals and police stations staff that are Jewish, Muslim atheist, or whatever will vol-unteer to work so that their Christian coworkers can take off, as we do on their holidays.

Of course, we’ve also got that cele-bration of retail capitalism, “Black Fri-day,” and the Christmas shopping sea-son. Ka-ching. If the economy’s better, sales will top last year’s. And there’s football, football, and more football, some with teams with those controver-sial names.

Kansas governor seeks school finance

dialogueTOPEKA — Gov. Sam

Brownback’s desire for more dialogue on public education funding during the legislative session is worthy, but such discus-sions between administra-tors and elected officials will only succeed if they try to determine what the num-bers mean, school superin-tendents said Monday.

A disconnect between schools and policymakers can arise because busy leg-islators are trying to juggle other priorities, said Cheryl Semmel, executive director of the Kansas School Super-intendents Association.

“If the only time you have the big conversation is dur-ing the legislative session, you are destined to a level of anxiety and frustration,”

Semmel said.Brownback said Friday

that he’d like to break a 40-year tradition of Kansas school districts going to court over funding for pub-lic education when their efforts fail in the State-house. He would prefer that more effort be made throughout the year to talk about education goals and

find common ground.“Nobody talks to any-

body, it’s all handled in liti-gation,” Brownback said at the time. “If I’ve learned anything in these systems it’s that if you’re not talk-ing you’re not going to come up with any resolution. If you’re talking, you’ve got a chance to come up with something.”

Brownback’s office con-firmed Monday that he would be hosting talks at his official residence on Nov. 25 between Republican legislative leaders and school superintendents.

The governor said recent talks among lawmakers and higher education lead-ers have been productive in explaining the mission of colleges and universities and how they spend state money. “I always think that having a conversation about school finance is impor-tant,” Semmel said. “We’ve always been willing and open and willing to do that.”

The problem is that too often the debate focuses on data without any attempt to explain or justify what the data means, she said. For example, data on expendi-tures or hiring may be list-ed on a chart, used in legis-lative debate or political ads with no follow-up expla-nation as to why money was spent or how the hiring

decisions were made by local school boards.

“We’ve become adjusted to digesting the sound bite,” Semmel said.

The Kansas Supreme Court is expected to rule early next year in a 2010 lawsuit by school districts claiming the state is under-funding elementary and secondary education. The court’s decision will likely dominate debate during the legislative session.

At issue is whether the state has kept its financial promises made in 2006 fol-lowing the conclusion of a lawsuit filed in 1999. School districts and parents con-tend the state has cut edu-cation spending and failed to reach the spending goals put in law.

The state argues that overall school spending has increased and that legisla-tors did the best they could for schools while in the throes of the Great Reces-sion that decimated state revenues.

Kansas spends more than $3 billion in state revenues on K-12 education and more than $5 billion counting federal aid and local reve-nues raised through prop-erty taxes

Dickinson County author-ities arrested 10 people and seized $7,000 in metham-phetamine and prescription pills following a drug bust last week.

The Dickinson County Drug Enforcement Unit, Sheriff’s Department and Abilene Police Department made the arrests Tuesday after a month-long investi-gation, a Monday press release stated.

Law enforcement officials conducted controlled pur-chases of methamphet-amine and prescription pills from eight people in Abilene and Solomon throughout October.

In Abilene, authorities arrested James Atkinson, Jeremy Brown, David Vil-cot, Heather Walls, Timothy

Hosie and Cynthia Rittger.Rittger had her 4-year-old

child in the home while two of the drug sales were con-ducted, authorities stated.

Four of the controlled purchases occurred within 1,000 feet of a school in Abilene.

In Solomon, law enforce-ment officials arrested Sean Carolan, Rellena Crowe and Benjamin Faulkner.

Over the course of the investigation, a total of 18.2 grams of methamphet-amine, 100 methadone pills, 20 Adderall pills, six Lor-atab pills, nine Soma pills and 20 Oxytocin pills were bought through the con-trolled purchases.

All persons arrested were incarcerated in the Dickin-son County Jail.

Additional arrests as a result of the investigation are expected, officials stat-ed.

Junction City police are investigating an aggravated burglary said to resemble several burglaries last year.

On Monday, Sgt. Trish Giordano said the most recent burglary occurred sometime between 11 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. Saturday in the 900 block of Meadow Lane, located in the south-west part of Junction City.

Giordano said unknown subjects entered the resi-

dence and removed jewelry, electronics and money.

That area of town experi-enced similar activity last summer, Giordano said.

“We had some burglaries and an attempted burglary that same way,” she said.

No subjects connected to those incidents were ever located.

Residents in that area who witness any suspicious activity are asked to call 911.

Police recommend resi-dents make sure their hous-es and vehicles are secure.

LAWRENCE — Although it’s only in preliminary stag-es, some Lawrence leaders are considering the possibil-ity of building a convention center in the city.

The concept of building a convention center in Law-rence is part of the Univer-sity of Kansas’ preliminary master plan, although it might not end up in the final draft, said Tim Caboni, the university’s vice chancellor for public affairs. University officials want to gather

information about the pos-sible benefits of a conven-tion center before releasing the draft, he said.

“One of the things a mas-ter plan allows an institu-tion to do is dream a little,” Caboni said.

Lawrence architect Mike Treanor strongly supports building a convention center in downtown Lawrence, The Lawrence Journal-World reported

“A convention center that could handle up to 1,500 peo-ple would be a magnet for a lot of groups,” Treanor,

chairman of Lawrence-based Treanor Architects, recently told a group dis-cussing the future of the city’s downtown. “It would keep the hotels full. It would be good for the restaurants and shops. It would be tre-mendous.”

Businessman Doug Comp-ton said he would like for the Lawrence City Commission to solicit a feasibility study on what type of convention center the Lawrence market could support. He is involved in several construction proj-ects in or near downtown

Lawrence.“We already have a strong

downtown, but a convention center would really add to its vitality,” Compton said.

The future sale of a print-ing plant owned by The World Company, which owns the Journal-World, also prompted some of the discussion. Dan Simons, president of The World Company’s electronics divi-sion, said the company has received strong interest in redeveloping the printing plant property but has made no decisions.

FROM PAGE ONE

David Yearout, director of planning and zoning, said Didas did not provide the appropriate informa-tion to address concerns such as blasting, dust con-trol and road issues.

“We don’t believe the applicant has met the bur-den of proof to show why this should be approved,” Yearout said.

There’s also plans to use the location for the crush-ing of concrete and asphalt, to mix with limestone.

“That’s an inconsistency with the state and what we have,” Yearout said to the commission. “We believe that’s another problem we have with this application. We did not receive a full disclosure of what was really going on in the mate-rial.”

Troy Peterson, RACC Survey manager, debated the staff’s laundry list of claims and said Didas took the appropriate steps for the request. His attorney Vernon Jarboe discussed the “not in my backyard,” attitude of the residents opposed to the quarry and said it was inappropriate to make a decision based on that feeling.

When the quarry was opened, there were only a couple of homes in the area, but years later a much larg-er community surrounds the quarry. Many of those homeowners packed the meeting chamber on Thurs-day.

Craig Paxton spoke on behalf of his neighbors with concerns about con-tamination of groundwater and wells, decrease in prop-erty values, blasting and quality of life.

“We feel that we should not be forced to live in the conditions this quarry will cause,” Paxton said.

The site is expected to provide five jobs and sup-porters believe it will bene-fit Geary County economi-cally.

“We don’t believe that economic growth for the community and supporting Fort Riley is the motive,” Paxton said. “We feel there’s an intention for per-sonal and monetary gain at the expense of the residents surrounding the quarry.”

Tom Weigand, president of the Junction City Cham-ber of Commerce, spoke in support of the project.

Weigand said he visited

the site and understands the neighbors’ concerns, but believes Didas is a pro-fessional in his line of work.

He presented an article about rock blasting and it not having an effect on the aquifer.

“We are supportive of the permit and we don’t think it will damage the neighbor-hood,” Weigand said. “It’ll add jobs and economic development to our com-munity.”

Like Weigand, Johnson, a former Junction City Commissioner, believes it will benefit the area.

“The way this thing is handled, you wonder why anyone would want to come here and do business,” Johnson said about the opposition.

While residents were concerned about the envi-ronmental effects, Johnson alluded to nearby resident’s operations.

A few of them included the runoff of a large manure pile and pesticides effecting a nearby creek.

“I’m not one who pol-lutes,” Johnson said. “This thing uses six to eight acres of ground and it moves on to the next piece.”

Johnson also brought up the emotional aspect of the situation.

“If’s that the feeling of everybody here then the city and county commis-sions need to go,” Johnson said. “It has to be decided on the facts and not on emotions. Things in this country can’t be decided this way.”

Public Works Adminis-trator Dennis Cox com-mented on haul routes and their impacts on the roads, which he sees firsthand. Another concern that would be difficult to cor-rect is the typography of the road, which is very

steep. “It’s difficult to estimate

what the cost would be,” Cox said about mainte-nance. “If you get weather you’re going to have some more maintenance needs.”

Cox said the staff wanted additional engineering information on the culvert and the weight of the vehi-cles.

The commission also questioned the noise aspects. Didas said he’s uncertain how far sound will travel, but trees will be used as a barrier for dust and noise.

Commissioner Maureen Gustafson said she would like to see a new business, but was concerned about the quality of life and water issues from potential blast-ing.

“The noise level, even

with the buffer of the trees is just going to be naturally there,” Gustafson said.

Mike Watson, planning commissioner, understands that Didas’ operation will provide jobs, but he’s con-cerned about residents.

“Once that water starts dripping out the wells,

you’re going to get a lot of emotions real quick,” Wat-son said.

Damage to roads was another one of his con-cerns.

“The taxpayers of the county are going to have to pay for all that traffic,” Watson said.

Commissioner Brandon Dibben also expressed his opinion on the wells.

“If these wells go bad, what’s the plan?”

Although the planning commission turned down the request Thursday, the Geary County Commission will review it in December.

because (St. Jude) gave us hope,” Katy said Monday in an interview with The Daily Union. “It’s a place of hope. I mean, you see the children laughing, they’re running down the hallways. They have their good days and bad days, but St. Jude always put on some kind of entertainment for the fami-lies and the kids to make them feel better when they’re having a bad day.”

The Thanks and Giving walks help raise millions of dollars to fund the hospital. A single day of operation costs $1.8 million, accord-ing to the hospital’s web-site, www.stjude.org.

The hospital gave so much to her family, Katy said, so she wants to help give in return.

“St. Jude doesn’t turn away a kid for their inabili-ty to pay,” Katy said. “When

Brady was in treatment, we didn’t have to pay a penny.”

During Brady’s treat-ment, St. Jude provided Katy, Jason and Brady’s older brother, Andrew, with housing. The hospital also helped pay for groceries and transportation.

The expert care Brady received also helped him enjoy his last months as much as possible.

“If it wasn’t for St. Jude, he wouldn’t have had four months,” Jason added.

Katy’s new friend, Mary Virata, of Augusta, Ga., will be walking in the Atlanta Thanks and Giving event.

Six months ago, Mary lost her 4-year-old son, Lew-kas, to a rare brain disease. He also was being treated at St. Jude.

Her reasons for partici-pating were similar to Katy’s.

“It made it feel like a nor-mal-type thing, like they weren’t sick or anything,” Mary said.

On Monday, Mary was

visiting Junction City. She and the Mortimers have become close ever since they met last year at the hospital’s Remembrance Day.

Mary and the Mortimers bonded over their experi-ences.

“It’s easier to relate to and know how each of us is feeling,” Mary said.

That’s the reason for their bond.

“Now we’re friends for life,” Katy said. “We’re more like a family at St. Jude.”

Now, the two women are looking to support the larg-er family that supported them through their sons’ treatments and deaths.

“We’re walking in honor of our sons, not only to raise money for the hospi-tal, but to raise awareness and walk in honor of our children and all the kids who are going to come through those doors,” Katy said.

showed rates at the city-owned golf course are below average in comparison to other area courses.

“Along with other operational changes at Rolling Meadows, we feel that an increase in rates would allow our revenue to more closely match our expenditures,” General Manager John Bernstein stated in a recent memo to commissioners.

The requested increase in rates would result in an estimated $15,000 in added rev-enue, Bernstein stated.

In support of a casinoThough a similar resolution was

approved about a year ago, the City Com-mission tonight is expected to again con-sider another resolution of support for a

state bill that would allow the establish-ment of a casino in Junction City or Geary County.

Thus far, State Rep. Allan Rothlisberg (R-Grandview Plaza) has led the charge to change a state law that would allow a fifth Kansas casino to be built in Geary County.

Rothlisberg expects the bill he’s been pushing to reach the House Federal and State Affairs Committee in February.

For the past few months, Rothlisberg has been attempting to rally enough sup-port for the casino among community members and the Junction City and Geary County governing bodies.

At the City Commission’s Nov. 5 meet-ing, several commissioners expressed a desire to proclaim publicly their support of Rothlisberg’s and other casino sup-porters’ efforts with the proposed resolu-tion.

ing and Acquisitions. Dunlap said the district would like to

spend $100,000 to purchase five vehicles. He would like to see more vehicles sta-tioned at Junction City High School.

Board members also discussed the school’s large travel bus, which was not on the list. The current bus broke down twice because of heat issues. To purchase a new one, it would cost $125,000.

“We pay so much in mileage because we don’t have vehicles to provide them,” Dunlap said about teachers and sponsors. “I think it’s worth exploring.”

The largest scheduled expense is mechanical, electrical and plumbing at $750,000, followed by roof work at

$400,000. The total amount resources available is

$5.9 million. During the meeting, Superintendent

Ronald Walker said 20 percent of funding was reduced from maintenance projects due to potential problems.

“I would rather be over cautious now,” Walker said.

Under special projects, the district plans to match funding from the U.S. Department of Defense’s Office of Eco-nomic Adjustment. The listed amount for a new Fort Riley Elementary School is $817,000 and more than $2 million for the current Fort Riley Middle School project.

Walker was hoping to receive an official announcement, but the recent partial gov-ernment shutdown may have delayed the process.

In February, the board will review the projects in more detail.

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesia’s president stepped up the pressure on Australia on Tuesday over allegations its neighbor tapped calls from his phone, saying the action was deplor-able and will lead to a review of cooperation agreements.

President Susilo Bam-bang Yudhoyono in an Indo-nesian language tweet con-firmed by his office said: “I also deplore the statement of Australian Prime Minis-ter who underestimates the wiretapping of Indonesia, without sense of guilt.”

A later English tweet used the word regret instead of deplore, and said the state-

ment “belittled this tapping matter on Indonesia, with-out any remorse.”

Indonesia had already announced on Monday that it was recalling its ambas-sador from Australia follow-ing reports that Australian spies attempted to listen to the president’s cellphone in 2009.

Australian Broadcasting Corp. and The Guardian reported that they had docu-ments from National Secu-rity Agency leaker Edward Snowden showing that the top-secret Australian Sig-nals Directorate also target-ed the phones of Indonesian first lady Kristiani Herawati and eight other government ministers and officials.

Yudhoyono tweeted that Indonesia wanted an official response from Australia “that can be understood by the public.”

“We will also review a number of bilateral cooper-ation agreements as a con-sequence of this hurtful action by Australia.”

Indonesian Presidential Spokesman for Foreign Affairs Teuku Faizasyah confirmed the tweets.

Australian Prime Minis-ter Tony Abbott told Parlia-ment Tuesday he regretted any embarrassment that the spying reports had caused Yudhoyono, but ruled out Indonesian demands for an apology and explanation.

MANHATTAN — Sophomore kicker Jack Cantele didn’t need to watch his 41-yard field goal attempt soar through the posts and into the stands with time waning against Texas Christian

Saturday.He knew it was good the moment

it left his foot.The field goal capped a nine-

play drive that moved the ball 44 yards into Cantele’s range to give Kansas State a 33-31 win. It was the team’s sixth on the season, making them bowl eligible for the

fourth consecutive season.“It felt amazing,” Cantele said

at the post game press confer-ence, minutes after the clock ran out. “It’s not like I hit a decent kick down the middle, I hit one of the most solid one’s I’ve had in a long time, if not ever.”

The drive started after TCU’s Jaden Oberkrom booted a 56-yard field goal to put his team up by one-point with just more than two minutes left in the contest.

The Horned Frogs were fight-ing to keep the possibility of reaching a bowl game open for themselves.

After Oberkrom knocked it through the uprights, the TCU bench errupted.

Cantele called it one of the most impressive kicks he’s ever seen.

“I have to imagine that’s how Kobe and Lebron feel when they’re trading baskets with 15 seconds left and one goes down and makes one then the other has to come back,” he said. “It’s cool that kickers finally got a little of the glory, that doesn’t seem to happen (often).”

After the TCU field goal, Kan-sas State quarterback Jake Waters came out onto the field to lead the Wildcat comeback.

While K-State was riding a three-game win streak, the team had yet to pull out a close game.

“Everyone just had to go out there and make plays,” Waters said. “If you saw, my offensive line gave me all day to throw it and then guys like Curry (Sex-ton), (Tyler) Lockett and Tra-maine (Thompson) getting open for me and Jack came in and made that field goal and every-body played a part in it and it was a great way to end the game.”

Fla. police investigating theft of

A-Rod documentsFlorida police department

says it has reopened an investiga-tion into the theft of documents related to baseball’s inquiry into whether Alex Rodriguez used performance enhancing drugs.

Boca Raton police officer San-dra Boonenberg said Monday the investigation was reopened several weeks ago based on new information stemming from Rodriguez’s lawsuit against Major League Baseball.

Boonenberg offered few details on the open investigation but said detectives have “a lot of leads that they’re pursuing.”

The documents were stolen in March from the car of Porter Fischer, who took them from Bio-genesis, the Miami clinic where he worked. The clinic and its owner, Tony Bosch, reportedly provided drugs to Rodriguez and other major league players. Bosch is now cooperating with baseball’s investigators.

Former NFL player Thomas Howard dies

in car crashFormer NFL linebacker Thom-

as Howard has died following a high-speed car crash on a free-way in Oakland.

The Alameda County Coro-ner’s office said the 30-year-old Howard was one of two men who died in the crash early Mon-day morning. The driver of the other car, 64-year-old Zeng Long Liu of Hayward, also died.

Howard was driving a speed-ing BMW when he hit a big rig, flipped over the center divider and went head-on into a Honda traveling on the other side around 1 a.m., according to the California Highway Patrol.

Howard played eight years in the NFL after being drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the sec-ond round out of Texas-El Paso in 2006. He was most recently with Atlanta before getting released last week.

After Big 12 win, Kansas looks for two straight

By davE SkrEtta

Associated Press

LAWRENCE — Kansas coach Charlie Weis was drenched, as if he’d just jumped in Potter’s Lake himself — the pond just up the hill from Memorial Stadium where the goalposts ended up.

It was a celebration two years in the making for Weis, whose back arched and face twisted into a shivering smile Satur-day after the ice water was poured over his head in the waning seconds of a 31-19 vic-tory over West Virginia — one that ended the Jayhawks’ 27-game Big 12 losing streak.

One that may finally have validated the progress he’s made with the program.

“Psychologically it is a very, very big uplift for our players,” Weis said Monday. “When guys get used to losing, it doesn’t

matter how hard you played, and nothing good happens, it wears old on you after a while. It was a big lift for our players in program.”

It was a big lift for everyone with ties to Kansas (3-7, 1-6), even those who long ago turned their attention to their second-ranked men’s basketball team.

The Jayhawks hadn’t beaten a Big 12 foe since a 52-45 win over Colorado in 2010. So maybe the several thousand fans that poured out of the stands and celebrated with the team at midfield should be forgiv-en for celebrating a bit. Maybe those who tugged down the goalposts, carried them past the campanile and deposited them in the pond should get a free pass.

Weis is certainly willing to give it to them.

MANHATTAN — With the tough competition of the Puerto Rico tip-off challenge looming ahead, the Kansas State basket-ball team (2-1) needed to build some momentum before the tour-nament started.

With a quick start against Long Beach State (1-4) Sunday, the Wildcats did just that.

Freshman Marcus Foster lobbed up an alley-oop to fresh-man Wesley Iwundu on the open-ing possession to bring those in attendance at Bramlage arena to their feet.

Then senior Shane Southwell drained a three and the Wildcats were off rolling to a 71-58 win.

“Long Beach State was a pretty good team,” Foster said after the game. “We came out and played hard. We got a lead on them early and we kept the lead. It kind of

Chiefs forced to bounce back from first lossBy davE SkrEtt

Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs only intend to lose to the Denver Broncos once, and that thought goes beyond the rematch between AFC West rivals in two weeks at Arrowhead Stadium.

After falling 27-17 on Sun-day night for the first time all season, the Chiefs insist-ed that they are turning their attention to the San Diego Chargers. They aren’t going to dwell on missed opportunities, turnovers and miscues that cost them dearly at Mile High Stadi-um.

In other words, they aren’t going to let the fall-out from Denver beat them against San Diego on Sun-day.

“Listen, we’ve got San Diego up next, so we’re not thinking about Denver right now,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said not more than 30 minutes after the defeat. “We’re moving on to San Diego and making sure that we get ready to play a good football team there. That’s No. 1.”

Still, it was a strange feel-ing when the Chiefs sleepily filed through the doors of their practice facility Mon-day. They got home at about 2:30 a.m. and were faced for the first time this season with something other than a “Victory Monday” — the light day Reid gives them after wins.

Reid wasn’t going to run them into the ground after a bruising defeat, of course. But he certainly wasn’t going to let them relax as they did after their first

nine games.“We played a good foot-

ball team and they got us,” Reid said. “We’ll bounce back. We’ll learn from our mistakes. There are plenty of things we’ll learn from here and get those fixed.”

For starters, the Chiefs need to do a better job of scoring touchdowns.

Their popgun offense was hamstrung all night by the Broncos defense, and when it finally did get into scor-ing position, it couldn’t cap-italize. The Chiefs were stonewalled on three straight runs from the Den-ver 2 in the second quarter and had to kick a field goal.

That left the Chiefs in a 17-10 hole heading into half-time.

“It really doesn’t matter who you’re playing. You’re still trying to go out there

Panthers beat Patriots 24-20 in disputed finish By Steve Reed

Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — As the Caro-lina Panthers celebrated their sixth straight win, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots were left won-dering why a penalty that could have saved them on the final play was wiped out.

Cam Newton threw a 25-yard touchdown pass to Ted Ginn Jr. with 59 seconds left and Carolina held off New England 24-20 Monday night when officials picked up a flag in the end zone on the final play.

Newton drove the Panthers 83 yards on 13 plays for the go-ahead touchdown, but the Patriots had a chance at an improbable comeback when Brady moved New England to the Carolina 18 and fired into the end zone on the final play.

The pass was intercepted by safety Robert Lester, but officials threw a flag after it appeared linebacker Luke Kuechly had interfered with tight end Rob Gronkowski by grab-bing him with both hands. The offi-cials quickly gathered together and waved off the flag.

“There was no explanation given

to me. Officials ran off the field. I didn’t see anything,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. “It was the last play of the game. There was a flag thrown and then the game was over.”

An angry Brady sprinted over to two officials to argue the call as they walked off the field.

“He was kind of weaving in and out of there. I didn’t really want to throw it over his head and out of bounds, so I was a little indecisive,” Brady said. “It wasn’t a great throw. No excuses. Should have been a bet-ter throw.”

Meanwhile, the Panthers celebrat-ed.

“We had good pressure and our safety Robert Lester was in good position to make the play,” coach Ron Rivera said.

Brady was 29 of 40 for 296 yards and one touchdown.

Newton completed 19 of 28 passes for 209 yards and three touchdowns. He also ran seven times for 62 yards in what will go down as one of his best games a pro.

After the game, Rivera called it a “gutsy effort.”

“It wasn’t our best defensive effort, but it was one of our better offensive

efforts,” Rivera said. “It was good for our guys to win a game like this.”

Carolina’s win came eight days after a 10-9 victory over reigning NFC champion San Francisco.

The Panthers entered the fourth quarter with a 17-10 lead, but Stevan Ridley made up for an earlier fumble with a 1-yard touchdown run and the Patriots took a 20-17 lead with 6:32 left when Stephen Gostkowski slipped a 26-yard field goal just inside the left upright.

Carolina came right back down the field and Newton hit the speedy Ginn on a hitch route. Ginn escaped Kyle Arrington along the left side-line and outraced Logan Ryan to the left pylon for his third touchdown of the season.

Newton gave Carolina a 17-10 lead in the third quarter on an 81-yard touchdown drive that took more than 8 minutes off the clock and featured a scramble in which the third-year quarterback avoided four tacklers and turned a potential 20-yard sack into a 14-yard gain and a first down.

Newton completed all seven passes on the drive for 77 yards finding Greg Olsen at the right pylon with 2:10 left for his second touchdown pass, put-ting the Panthers back in front.

set the tone for how we want to play in the tournament.”

After leading the team in scor-ing against Oral Roberts, Foster came out sluggish against the 49ers.

He didn’t make a shot from the field until two minutes remained in the first half, when he sank a three.

But he responded to lead the Wildcats with 17 points in the con-test.

“I came out a little sluggish and I did not have my usual intensity,”

Foster said. “When I came to the bench, Coach Weber told me that I needed to pick it up and play hard-er. When I got the chance to go back in, I just played hard and my shots started to fall.”

The key to the quick start came from increased pressure the Wild-cats brought on the defensive side of the ball.

Senior guard Will Spradling shut down Long Beach State’s Mike Caffey.

The normally sure-handed Caffey committed five turnovers and was held to just five assists.

“I felt like (K-State) dominated us with their pressure early,” Long Beach State coach Don Mon-son said. “We could not get any

offensive rhythm. It started to put so much pressure on our defense and our rebounding. We could not get a stop. We never got any flow until the game was over.”

Kansas State coach Bruce Weber said shutting down Caffey was his team’s focus early.

He said he wanted all of his players focused on Caffey, so he would see 10 eyes watching him all game.

“We picked up our pressure and I’ve got to compliment Will, he did a great job,” Weber said of Sprald-ing. “Caffey is good, if you let him get going, he’s as good as any guard we’ve seen. Plus we doubled him with Shane, Nino, we really made it tough for him to get any rhythm.”

Southwell and senior Omari Lawrence also scored in double digits with 14 and 10 points each.

Additionally, Southwell led Kansas State with six boards.

The game marked the return of forward Thomas Gipson to the Wildcats. He made his season debut after sitting out the first two regular season contests with an injury.

Gipson grabbed three boards and scored twice in 19 minutes off the bench.

“He’s got to rebound,” Weber said. “Just like we told Marcus before Oral Roberts, focus on things you can control, rebound-ing, playing hard, defense. Those are the things that are important and then the scoring will come.

“The first time he got in the game, what did they do? They double teamed him. That’s a com-pliment, somebody must know he’s pretty good.”

The Wildcats open up the Puer-to Rico tip-off tournament against Charlotte on Thursday.

Stoops in no rush to name Oklahoma’s QB

By Michael Kinney

Associated Press

NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops likes to keep things close to the vest, routinely declining to speak about his start-ing quarterback.

So it was no surprise Stoops didn’t want to name who will be under center on Saturday when the No. 22 Sooners (8-2, 5-2 Big 12 Conference) take on Kansas State (6-4, 4-3).

“No need in presenting that,” Stoops said. “Why would I give that? The quarterback issue, it does no possible good to define all of that today or Friday. We will just go into the game and hope-fully have all of them ready.”

Coming out of a 48-10 win over Iowa State, the Sooners saw back-ups Trevor Knight and Kendal Thompson play against the Cyclones after starter Blake Bell was injured early in the second quarter. Running primarily the read-option offense, Knight took over and led the offense on five scoring drives. That included the redshirt freshman reeling off a 56-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.

Knight finished the day 8-for-14 passing for 61 yards, also rushing for 123 yards.

“Obviously Trevor being a lit-tle bit more mobile than Blake, he does a great job of making people miss,” senior tailback Brennan

Clay said. “He made some great reads. He was just able to be more comfortable in the pocket. He came in and did a great job. He prepared throughout the week.”

When Knight’s day was done, Thompson was called into ser-vice and got his first action of his career in the fourth quarter. On Thompson’s first drive, the red-shirt led the Sooners on an eight-play, 90-yard drive that saw him throw a three yard touchdown pass to Aaron Ripkowski.

Throughout the past few weeks, fans and media have been asking when Thompson, the son of for-mer Oklahoma quarterback Charles Thompson, would get his turn.

“It’s not that he’s not in the mix,” Stoops said. “It’s just that we’re not going to just go and try him out and see how it goes. You just don’t do that”

Now that Thompson, who was injured in the preseason, has finally shown what he can do, fans are hoping to see more from him in the team’s final two games.

“He’s been doing a great job,” Stoops said. “We’ve been com-fortable and felt Kendal, when he has his opportunity, will handle it well, and he went in there and did it, to no surprise to us. We felt he’s a talented guy. He’s got confi-dence. He went in there and did a nice job.”

OKLAHOMA CITY — Oklahoma City coach Scott Brooks knows his team can play from behind. He just doesn’t want the Thunder to make a habit of it.

“We’re very prideful. We’re going to keep fighting to the last possession,” Brooks said after watching his team pull out a come-from-behind 115-113 win at home against Denver. “That’s always been a trademark but we can’t just turn it on the second half. We have to correct that. It’s my job to find combinations where guys are going to play with more defensive force.”

Kevin Durant scored 38 points, Rus-sell Westbrook had 30 points and 12 rebounds and the Thunder were forced to rally late to win their second straight game.

“It’s tough. We can’t continue to do that and put pressure on ourselves. We’ve got to start the game better. Most of that is my fault,” Westbrook said.

Oklahoma City’s All-Star point guard struggled early hitting just one of his first seven shots and just four of 12 in the first half.

But Westbrook also had seven assists and 11 fourth-quarter points to help Oklahoma City erase a 14-point deficit in the second half. Reggie Jack-son added 14 points.

With the score tied at 105, Serge Ibaka pulled down an offensive rebound and found Durant for a 3-pointer that put Oklahoma City (7-3) ahead to stay. Jeremy Lamb and Derek Fisher each hit a pair of free throws in the final 14 seconds to help the Thunder hold on.

“I think Fish was a huge part of that,” Brooks said. “You’ve got to love guys that play with everything they have. I can’t say enough about his effort. His effort turned that game around.”

Ty Lawson led Denver (4-6) with 29 points and eight assists. J.J. Hickson had 18 points and 19 rebounds.

The Nuggets led the entire game except for the first 18 seconds of the first quarter and the final 1:26 of the

fourth.First-year Denver Coach Brian

Shaw said his team’s outside shooting had been a sore spot coming into the game, but the Nuggets connected on four of their first seven 3-point attempts. Denver shot 59 percent from the field while grabbing a 39-28 lead after the first quarter.

Oklahoma City then began the sec-ond quarter with a 10-2 run, but reserve Nate Robinson gave the Nug-gets a lift with eight points that helped them to a 13-point lead.

After hitting just one shot in the first quarter, Westbrook scored eight points in the second. Westbrook’s 25-footer with a second remaining in the half cut Denver’s lead to three.

Denver increased its lead to 14 in the third quarter but watched it evap-orate as Oklahoma City rallied for its second straight win.

“Bottom line, you play a team of this caliber on their home court and

you pretty much control the entire game it comes down to small details and we didn’t do well enough in those areas,” Shaw said. “That’s the part that’s the shame.”

Denver missed 18 free throws and gave up 19 offensive rebounds to the Thunder.

Oklahoma City has traditionally struggled with the Nuggets, winning one of four meetings last season and 7 of 12 overall in the young series.

The Nuggets had five players score in double figures, but went 25 for 43 from the free-throw line. Evan Fournier had 12 points, Randy Foye scored 11 and Robinson finished with 10.

The Thunder were 26 for 32 from the line and outrebounded Denver 53-45.

“The comforting thing is we have guys that can come off the bench and play good minutes and have a good role for us,” Brooks said. “That’s my

Struggling Iowa State preps for KUBy Luke Meredith

Associated Press

AMES, Iowa — Iowa State has faced one of the most grueling stretches of any team in the country over the past two months and it lost every game.

The beleaguered Cyclones finally get someone they believe they can hang with on Saturday: Iowa State (1-9, 0-7 Big 12) will have its best chance yet to snap a seven-game losing streak when it hosts Kansas (3-7, 1-6) in a matchup of the Big 12’s two worst teams.

Though the Jayhawks scored their first league win by beating West Vir-ginia last weekend, the Cyclones are still favored to beat someone for the first time in Big 12 play.

Kansas should feel pretty good about itself heading to Ames. But the Jayhawks will be facing an Iowa State team desperate to get its first home win of the year and send its seniors out with a victory.

“I’m pretty sure they will have a lot of confidence. But I’m more than positive that we’ll have just as much confidence taking the field because it’ll be our last time taking the field,” Iowa State senior running back Shon-trelle Johnson said. “We’re

fighting to get that last win, so it’ll be highly intense, emotional game.”

Iowa State is coming off yet another blowout loss, a 48-10 drubbing at Oklaho-ma.

But when a team is strug-gling as badly as the Cyclones are, coaches will often search for any posi-tive signs they can find — and Iowa State actually out-played Oklahoma on the road for nearly a half.

The Cyclones led 10-3 late in the first half and was set to pin Oklahoma deep in its own territory. But Jalen Saunders took a punt back 91 yards for a touchdown to seize momentum heading into the locker room. Damien Williams then gave the Sooners the lead for good on a 69-yard touch-down run straight up the middle just 43 seconds into the third quarter.

For a team that’s grown accustomed to having bad things happen, that run by Williams proved to be the tipping point.

Clay Brennan had a 63-yard TD run, Trevor Knight had a 56-yard touch-down and Williams ran another one in from 19 yards out as the Sooners racked up 405 yards on 44 carries.

“That’s the challenge of

a team that has things stacked against them, to not allow that run to hap-pen, to be able to fight through the first piece of adversity that you saw,” Rhoads said.

Iowa State’s losing streak has left them with little but pride and momentum for next season to play for.

There is reason to believe that the program is in bet-ter shape than its 1-9 record might indicate. The Cyclones have been banged up all year — especially along the offensive line and at quarterback — and five of their losses have been by single digits.

But while Iowa State’s players insist that they con-

tinue to believe in them-selves, it’d be a lot easier to continue to do so through the season finale at West Virginia on Nov. 30 if they can at least beat Kansas.

“I think we got confi-dence coming out of the Oklahoma game, even in the loss,” Rhoads said. “Not enough to match Kan-sas’s will be, with the ela-tion that went along with that victory. But hopefully enough to propel into a good week of practice and taking the field with the mindset to overcome what-ever adversity is going to come our way. Because it’s going (to). It’s a football game.”

ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR TECHNICIANS

Dear Annie: My sister-in-law, “Marie,” has been diagnosed as bipolar, but doesn’t take any medica-tion.

For 25 years, it has caused serious trouble.

Marie is a spiteful, evil, controlling human being.

You can’t find a single person in town with a kind word to say about her.

Her own daughters try to keep their distance.

My brother is afraid to leave her and instead seeks the company of other women.

He’s had many affairs during their marriage.

All of the men he works with are aware of this and even encourage it because they see how awful his wife is.

As brothers, we were always close, but Marie has managed to sever our rela-tionship.

My brother is not a healthy man.

He works extra hours in order to stay away from home.

His latest girlfriend is a beautiful, kind, sweet woman.

He adores her, but is afraid of what Marie might do.

She has threatened to destroy his life if he ever leaves her.

Her threats are real. While we do not condone

his cheating, the family has witnessed his painful mar-riage.

What can we do? — Brother to Brother

Dear Brother: Marie should not be allowing her bipolar disease to control her behavior.

It would help if your brother could get her to see a doctor and find a medica-tion that works for her.

If she refuses and your brother is truly afraid to leave because of her threats, this would be considered emotional abuse.

Suggest that he contact the Domestic Abuse Help-line for Men and Women (dahmw.org) at 1-888-7HEL-PLINE.

Dear Annie: My older brother will be 60 this year, and he and his friends are hosting a group party in another state.

His entire family lives here, including his son.

That means for the major-ity of the guests, attending will include travel and hotel expenses.

I am fine with that.What I don’t get is that

this event isn’t offering any meals.

That means dinner is on us, and we will have to pay for drinks at the party.

I think this is just plain wrong.

We are a small family and very close.

I have invited my brother to numerous dinners here over the years.

I suggested that we cele-brate his birthday with a family dinner at my house,

and he said, “That is not going to happen.”

I don’t know what to think. — Party Pooper, Santa Cruz

Dear Party: We are con-fused by the words “hosting a party” when the guests are paying for everything.

Nonetheless, your broth-er can have the party of his choosing in the location he prefers, and you get to decide whether or not to attend.

Determine how impor-tant it is for you to be there.

If your brother would be hurt by your absence, please go if you can afford to do so.

Dear Annie: This is for “Searching for Answers,” whose wife of 11 years doesn’t want sex.

She works in a profes-sion, maintains a home, runs five miles a day to keep herself in shape and is raising three young kids.

I’d like to offer him my insight of 73 years, 46 of which have been spent mar-ried to my wonderful wife.

Sex is like the frosting on a cake.

It tops off a good thing.But frosting without the

cake is not satisfying.Those who marry in

order to have an easy source of sex should work out some other way to satisfy their needs.

A marriage where sex is the prime motivation will become tedious and dull or will not last.

Marriage consists of many things, some good, some bad.

It is living day to day in a quiet routine.

It means that you have a close companion with whom you can share a sun-set.

Think before you throw in the towel on your mar-riage and give up the cake for the frosting. — An Old Guy Who’s Been There

TAURUS (April 20—May 20). The people around you need to hear about your accomplishments, but not now. A confident person has more than he shows and speaks less than he knows.

GEMINI (May 21—June 21). Blaming just isn’t your thing. You accept total responsibility for your life. And yet, when it’s your turn to accept praise, you deflect and let others have the glory.

CANCER (June 22—July 22). People know they can share their dreams with you, and you won’t impose your own reality uninvited. Hope is all that some people have. Only the cruel would take it away.

LEO (July 23—Aug. 22). You admire those who have done well for them-selves, but do not assume that riches always follow hard work. You’ll meet those who came into wealth through nepotism or calculated exploitation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23—Sept. 22). It’s a day of cravings, yearnings and longings. It’s good to have such a visceral response to life, because it makes wanting very clear. Knowing what you want makes life a game. Also, it’s more fun than not know-ing.

LIBRA (Sept. 23—Oct. 23). The mys-teries of the universe are not trying to be mysterious. They can’t help it that we haven’t figured them out yet. Today you’ll

flirt with problems that probably won’t be solved in this lifetime, but it will open your mind to try.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24—Nov. 21). If there’s not enough love in your life, even the trees can sense your sadness. Make it a priority to fill your heart. It’s not just for you. The world needs your happiness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22—Dec. 21). You’re in the mood to spend money on identity enhancements. Just remember that it’s your attitude more than anything else that makes you cool or not cool.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22—Jan. 19). Some people anxiously monitor their diet because they are sick, and others do the same to avoid becoming sick. Seek free-dom instead. Go in the direction of easy-going, stress—free moderation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20—Feb. 18). Your perceptions are so accurate that you can-not be deceived unless you choose to deceive yourself. This clarity may impel you to point out the truth to a friend who doesn’t see it, but only do so if you are asked.

PISCES (Feb. 19—March 20). You didn’t mean to develop these feelings, but that’s love. Whether you fall in or accidentally wander over, the result is the same: You’re suddenly thinking about someone else more than you think of yourself.

SPORTS

Despite facing one of the top defenses in the Big 12, Waters twice found a receiver open deep down field.

Late in the first quarter, with Kansas State holding a 7-0 league, Lockett took off on a route before com-ing to a complete stop and faking a move 10 yards up field. The TCU corner bit and Lockett raced past him.

Waters’ throw was on target and Lockett won the footrace to the end zone for the score.

“I was a little surprised, but we did a little double cut and he ended up biting on us,” Lockett said. “Luckily, everything worked out, but it was a battle the whole entire game.”

But in the third quarter, TCU took a 21-17 lead.

Waters hurled the ball

downfield to Thompson.The senior caught it

backpedaling, stopped to let the corner overpursue him, then cut across the field at an angle to score from 79-yards out.

But then, the Kansas State offense began to struggle.

The Wildcats relied on the leg of Cantele to bring the win home.

He had made just nine field goals entering the game, but came through four times — three over the final 18 minutes of the game — against the Horned Frogs.

Cantele said he told himself before he set up for the kick that he was not going to miss it.

“It feels good to help your team win the game,” he said. “I’m going out there not so I can get inter-viewed after the game but I’m going out there because I want them to have another victory in the victory column.”

CanteleContinued from Page 1B

and execute every play. That’s it,” said Alex Smith, who threw for 230 yards and two touchdowns. “When they got up a couple scores, you have to answer. We weren’t able to get it done.”

Part of the reason for that — and the failings at the goal line — was a miserable night by the Chiefs offen-sive line. Even though Kansas City has spent lavishly through the draft to build its front five, the Chiefs struggled to open holes for Jamaal Charles for much of the game.

Whenever Smith dropped back to pass, he usually had a Broncos defender in his face.

“I won’t talk about my O-line,” Charles said afterward.

It wasn’t just the offense’s inabil-ity to put points on the board that cost the Chiefs dearly, though. Their defense, which had been among the most ferocious in the NFL through the first nine weeks, couldn’t lay a finger on Peyton Manning the entire night. The league leaders in sacks didn’t bring him down once.

“He definitely makes sure he gets the ball out of his hands as quick as possible,” linebacker Tamba Hali said. “I know he doesn’t get sacked a lot. A lot of guys do hit him — we didn’t hit him like we anticipated. We just have to do a better job next time.”

The same thing could be said of the Chiefs’ secondary, which started off well but couldn’t hold Manning

in check the whole way. Manning wound up throwing for 323 yards, the most Kansas City has allowed in a game this season, with a touch-down pass and no interceptions.

“You have to give some credit to their offense,” cornerback Sean Smith said. “They are very efficient and they don’t make too many mis-takes. We still have to find some kind of way to force some turnovers. Whether it’s fumbles or intercep-tions or whatever, we need to be able to create more opportunities for our offense.”

That process started Monday, when the Chiefs truly turned their attention to San Diego.

Even though they’re coming off

their first loss of the season, the Chiefs are still 9-1 and tied with the Broncos atop the AFC West. So they’re refusing to take on a doom-and-gloom outlook for the season, knowing full well that they’re still in the division race.

“As great as it is to win, it’s lousy when you lose,” Smith said. “We have to find a way to deal with it. How many teams have ever gone undefeated given the history of foot-ball? We have to find a way to get better and prepare for next week. We see (the Broncos) again in two weeks, but we have to prepare for another big division game next week. These games keep getting bigger.”

ChiefsContinued from Page 1B

body. To have the players with the students, it was a little bit unexpected for them to be out there,” Weis said, “but having them intertwined with the students, my enjoyment really comes from when they have enjoyment. There were a lot of happy faces out there.”

It wasn’t a fluke victory, either. It was one that the Jayhawks earned.

James Sims ran for a career-best 211 yards and three touchdowns. Fresh-man quarterback Montell Cozart made enough plays to feel optimistic about his future. And the Kansas defense kept turning back the Mountaineers every time they threatened to make it a game in the clos-ing minutes.

“Our defense all year long has played good enough for us to have a chance to win some games,” Weis said. “What has cost us the most is the

inefficiency to score on offense.”

The Jayhawks still only managed 376 yards of total offense, but they tied a season-high for points that they set in a season-opening win over lower-division South Dakota. In fact, their 31 points were the most over an FBS opponent since an over-

time loss to Texas Tech last November.

“We prepared well,” Sims said. “It obviously sunk in knowing we weren’t going to a bowl game, so we just wanted to treat the last three games that we have coming up as our bowl season.

“We just took down West Virginia, so that’s

one,” Sims said. “Now we’ve got to go to Ames, Iowa, and get a win up there and it make it num-ber two.”

Yes, it’s not so far-fetched to think that a program that lost 27 con-secutive conference games spanning two different head coaches could sud-denly put together a win-ning streak.

The Jayhawks’ victory coupled with Iowa State’s blowout loss to Oklahoma left the Cyclones (1-9, 0-7) as the only winless team in the Big 12. Kansas visits them on Saturday night with a chance to pick up its first Big 12 road win since Oct 4, 2008.

“Having won that game really helps us going for-ward to this next game,” Weis said. “The next thing to do is win on the road. This is our last opportu-nity for this year to try and make that happen. Then you come home and play Kansas State who has been whipping us pretty good as of late and get an opportunity to do some-thing about that, too.

“We still have an oppor-tunity to get rid of things still on the list to change the program.”
