It was 116 years ago this week that the KU football team first wore crimson and blue uniforms. Prior to that day, the official uniform color was just crimson. Before we had a football program, the official KU colors were yellow and blue.

Presidential candidates present foreign policy proposals

ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK - The presidential candidates on Tuesday laid out their visions of America's role in the world while making subtle political jabs at one another in dueling foreign policy speeches shaped by violent protests in the Middle East and their closely fought campaign at home.
Republican nominee Mitt Romney smiled and joked with political foe Bill Clinton before delivering a speech that insinuated that President Barack Obama has not done enough to stop chaos overseas.
A couple miles away in a speech to the U.N. General Assembly, Obama indirectly referenced Romney's statement, revealed last
week in a secretly recorded video at a private fundraiser, that he doesn't have much faith in peace prospects between Israelis and Palestinians.
Obama didn't mention the video but told the assembled world leaders: "Among Israelis and Palestinians, the future must not belong to those who turn their backs on the prospect of peace."
Like Obama, Romney avoided direct criticism he's made during recent campaign appearances to reflect the setting at the gathering of political, humanitarian and business leaders at the annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative.
The GOP White House nominee said U.S. aid needs to be more effective in elevating people and bringing about lasting change in developing nations plagued by instability and violence, including the death of the U.S. ambassador to Libya.
In his remarks, Romney called the death a terrorist attack, language that Obama himself has not used but that his chief spokesman and secretary of state have.
Obama told the United Nations that the violence in Libya "were attacks on America" and called on world leaders to help confront the root causes of rage across the
Muslim world.
"We somehow feel that we are at the mercy of events, rather than shaping events." Romney said.
Romney said he would negotiate trade agreements and offer "prosperity pacts" in the Middle East and other developing nations to encourage open markets in exchange for U.S. aid.
The aim of a much larger share of our aid must be the promotion of work and the fostering of free enterprise," Romney said.
In a reflection of his policy on welfare in the United States, Romney said work is the key to lifting people out of poverty abroad by providing self-esteem and a grounding in reality instead of fanaticism.
That message also was designed to appeal to white, working-class voters, who Obama has been targeting by sending Clinton out to campaign for him.
Clinton gave Romney a warm introduction, which led Romney to jokingly acknowledge that the former president is helping his rival.
"If there's one thing we've learned this election season, it's that a few words from Bill Clinton can do a man a lot of good," Romney said. "All I've got to do now is wait a
New polling in key swing states indicates that Obama may indeed be experiencing a bounce since the Democratic National Convention, where Clinton offered a passionate defense of Obama's economic record and said Romney "fails the test of fiscal responsibility," among other criticisms of the Republican.
couple days for that bounce to happen."
Washington Post polls out Tuesday show Obama leading Romney in Ohio, 52 to 44 percent among likely voters.
Romney planned to join runr- ting mate Paul Ryan in Ohio for campaign events later Tuesday and Wednesday.
The president also had a slight edge in Florida, 51 to 47 percent among those most likely to vote, according to the Post polling.
Obama fared much better among all registered Florida voters, with a lead of 9 percentage points, suggesting the president's campaign will need to focus on getting the maximum number of voters to the polls.
Obama appeared at Clinton's gathering later in the day and announced new initiatives against human trafficking in the United States and overseas.
POLICE REPORTS
Information based off the Douglas County Sheriff's office booking recap.
A 53-year-old Lawrence man was arrested on the 1600 block of Tennessee Street Monday at 1:22 p.m. on suspicion of criminal damage to property. Bond was set at $250.
A 69-year-old Lawrence man was arrested on the 1400 block of Stone Meadows Monday at 8:47 p.m. on suspicion of domestic battery, criminal damage to
property less than $1,000, intimidating a witness and obstruction of legal process. Bond was not set.
A 21-year-old Lawrence woman was arrested on the 600 block of Kasold on Monday at 9:04 p.m. on suspicion of operating under the influence. Bond was set at $500. She was released.
A 28-year-old Lawrence man was arrested Monday at 12:40 p.m. on the 1100 block of Sixth Street on suspicion of criminal trespass and disorderly conduct. Bond was set at $200. He was released.
A few years ago, she said, the commission received several complaints about the danger of parking mopeds near bike racks. Soon after, the department reserved certain parking spots for mopeds.
