Pro-business PAC stirs up City Commission race By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

For years, the world of Lawrence City Commission campaigning has run on $50, $100 or sometimes even $500 donations from supporters. A $5,000 donation hasn’t been the norm. But it is reality in the 2013 Lawrence City Commission race. A new pro-business political action committee — Lawrence United — entered the campaign scene over

by a $5,000 donation from longtime Lawrence business Penny’s Concrete. “I was Riordan asked to contribute to the group, and I did because I feel like it really is about the importance of promoting the need for jobs,� said Bill Penny, an owner of Penny’s Concrete. “I’m absolutely not ashamed to help people have jobs.

It makes people feel good about themselves and feel productive in their society.� Lawrence attorney Casey Meek serves as the chairman and treasurer of the new group. He said the organization plans to create a board of directors in the near future that will keep the PAC active for future local elections. He said the group will work to register new voters, attract “young and enthusiastic� candidates for local office and promote a better business

environment in Lawrence. “We’re trying to make Lawrence as attractive as possible to outside businesses and make it as easy as possible for local businesses to stay up and running,� Meek said.

CAPT. ALLEN JOHNSON HAS RETIRED after more than 38 years as a Lawrence firefighter. A reception was Tuesday at the Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical station at 1911 Stewart Ave. BELOW is a family photo of Johnson taken early in his career.

Blazes have reshaped city landscape, firefighter protocol during long career By Ian Cummings icummings@ljworld.com

It’s been a long time since the Royal College shoe store, 835 Massachusetts St., caught fire, but Allen Johnson remembers it well. He was a young firefighter then, on a warm Saturday night, climbing a ladder to the roof of the burning store with a fire hose. Several fire crews gathered below, where flames filled the building’s basement. This was Johnson’s first big fire, in his third year with Lawrence’s fire department, and the last thing he remembers is the firefighter next to him falling down. Then

Johnson was out, and he woke up later in the hospital. He was just 20 years old. When Johnson’s father, thenSheriff Rex Johnson, arrived on the scene of the fire, he found his son at an ambulance being treated for smoke inhalation. This was 1977, the first Royal College fire, years before the store burned again in 1982 and owner Thomas H. Black was unsuccessfully prosecuted for arson. It was also years before firefighters started wearing air packs regularly. More than 35 years of firefighting later, Capt. Allen Johnson Please see FIREFIGHTER, page 5A

TOPEKA — The Kansas House on Tuesday rejected a provision that would allow a victim of rape, incest or child sexual abuse to get late-term abortions. In proposing his amendment to an abortion bill, state Rep. John Wilson, D-Lawrence, LEGISLATURE said women and girls in those “horrible, life-changing� situations shouldn’t be prevented from ending their pregnancy. Current law bans abortions after 22 weeks unless a woman’s life is in danger or she faces a major, irreversible harm to her physical health.

Then, his head was rammed into a concrete wall, causing what Johnson called a “massive closed head injury.� Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical confirmed that it responded to a medical emergency at the house that night. Johnson says he was first taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and then transported by Lifestar helicopter ambulance to Kansas University Hospital in Kansas City, Kan. The suit claims the in-

jury caused brain damage, permanently taking away Johnson’s sense of smell and leaving him with cognitive deficiencies. Representatives of the fraternity at its national office in Richmond, Va., said they could not comment on the case because it is pending in court. Attempts to reach representatives of Mebarek and Johnson were unsuccessful. Elsewhere around the country over the years, the fraternity has been the subject of other lawsuits, and in some cases sanctions, at University of Miami, University of Georgia, Ohio Wesleyan University and California Polytechnic State University. — Reporter Ian Cummings can be reached at 832-7144 .

abortions and a requirement that doctors notify parents in writing when a child seeks an abortion. State Rep. Lance Kinzer, R-Olathe, and a vocal opponent of abortion rights, spoke against Wilson’s amendment, saying it would change a decade’s worth of placing restrictions on abortion in Kansas. Wilson’s amendment failed on a 31-90 vote. The discussion occurred on House Bill 2253, a wide-ranging abortion bill brought by Kinzer that was given preliminary approval by the House on Tuesday. Another proposed amendment to the bill, which would have removed language in the bill that tells doctors to provide information about the potential risks of abortion, including breast cancer, failed. State Rep. Barbara Bollier, R-Mission Hills and a physician, said there wasn’t sound scientific evidence to back up a link between abortion and breast cancer. “I don’t want you at my doctor’s appointment telling my doctor what to say,� she told the House. But her amendment fell, 50-71. HB 2253 would prohibit tax breaks for abortion providers, bar women who claim tax deductions for medical expenses from including the cost of an abortion, and prohibit public schools from using sex education instruction from Planned Parenthood. During debate, the measure prompted general comments on abortion. Rep. Joe Edwards, RHaysville and a pastor, said, “We must stop this genocide that is happening in America.� But Rep. Carolyn Bridges, D-Wichita, said continued restrictions on abortion won’t stop abortions from happening. “You can pass all of the bills that you want to, but abortions are not going to end. What is going to end is the safe procedure that is taking place,� she said. Kinzer said a portion of the bill that states that the life of each human being begins at fertilization will “help set the context for more substantive restrictions in the future.�

Mom marches to back teachers TOPEKA (AP) — A northeast Kansas mom has completed a threeday walk from her home in Merriam to Topeka to protest policies she says hurt public schools and teachers. Heather Ousley began her 60-mile trek Saturday and finished with a news conference Tuesday in the Statehouse. Ousley said that she was compelled to act because of bills before the Legislature that she and other critics claim are an attack on teacher rights and quality public schools. Ousley was joined by several dozen teachers, parents and children from the Shawnee Mission school district who were lobbying legislators. The gathering was part of a new organization, Game on for Kansas Schools, which is advocating for strong public schools and increased funding.

to a budget that would cut higher education by 4 percent, keep public school funding flat and reduce dollars in numerous other areas of state spending. Democrats said the austerity plan, on top of years of recession-era budget cuts, was being driven by Republican-approved income tax cuts.

— Rep. John Wilson, D-Lawrence “We have a budget built on a tax plan that doesn’t support our children but sacrifices them for the benefit of the wealthiest among us and large corporations,” said Rep. Ed Trimmer, D-Winfield.

Republican supporters of the budget said it was a responsible plan as they pushed it through on a 71-51 vote. A final vote on the measure is expected today. Democrats said the 4 percent cut, totaling $29.2 million, to

higher education would lead to tuition increases. But House Appropriations Committee Chairman Marc Rhoades, R-Newton, said regardless of the budget, the state’s universities will increase tuition. “They raise tuition because they want to,” he said. “On higher education, it is out of control. At some point we are going to hit the stone wall.” Higher education officials have argued that reductions in state spending on universities

in recent years has had a direct impact on the size of tuition increases. Under the 4 percent cut, Kansas University would lose nearly $10 million, including $4.2 million at the KU Medical Center. House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, said the cut doesn’t make sense when the Legislature wants KU Med to produce more doctors and nurses. Please see BUDGET, page 4A

Kansas Department of Transportation will perform road work over the next two weeks on portions of Old U.S. 59 Highway and East 23rd Street. Both lanes of a 1.5-mile stretch of Old U.S. 59 now are closed during daylight hours from the Franklin County line to North 150 Road for pipe extension work. KDOT said the work will continue through Thursday. Starting Monday, another stretch of Old U.S. 59, from North 800 Road at Pleasant Grove to North 900 Road, will be reduced to one lane each way during daylight hours

for milling and overlay, as well as guard rail installation. That project is scheduled to continue through March 29, weather permitting. Also, a portion of East 23rd Street in Lawrence, between Haskell and Barker avenues, will be reduced to one lane each way Monday through March 28 for milling and asphalt inlay on either side of the new bridge. KDOT said traffic will be directed through the work zone via cones and signage, and message boards will alert drivers to the lane closures. KDOT said drivers should expect major delays during peak driving times.

KC downtown benefiting from hoops KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Downtown Kansas City has been benefiting from back-to-back waves of basketball. Just a couple of days after serving as host for 120,000 people over the four-day run of the Big 12 Men’s Basketball Tournament, the Sprint Center is now preparing for the NCAA tournament and a second wave of packed hotels and restaurants, in a downtown entertainment district flooded with fans as eight teams try to advance in the NCAA basketball tournament, The Kansas City Star reported.

Nick Benjamin, executive director of the Power & Light District, said the crowds attracted to his venue for the Big 12 tournament and St. Patrick’s Day were the biggest in the five-year history of the entertainment district. “The past five days are the best five days we’ve ever had,� he said. Benjamin estimated 130,000 people visited the Kansas City Live Block and 14th Street, which was closed during the tournament, between Wednesday and Saturday. They went through 300,000 cups during the event.

“The bill is there because we disagreed with the Chamber and the governor, and we need to be silenced,� Desetti said. “Go after us, but you’re not shutting us up.� Unions became more suspicious in January when Stafford, answering questions during a hearing by the commerce committee, snapped, “I need this bill passed so we can get rid of public sector unions.� Stafford later acknowledged he lost his cool and apologized, saying supporters of the bill have no such goal. Also, when the House passed a version of the bill in January, it defined political activities broadly enough that critics said it could prevent unions from testifying before the Legislature about worker safety or hinder communications between a union and its members. Rep. Marvin Kleeb, who is chairman of the commerce committee, said that was never the intent, and the Senate rewrote the bill before passing it last week. The House’s vote Tuesday was to accept the Senate’s changes. Kleeb, an Overland Park Republican, said union members will still be able to write checks or give money individually to PACs but, “The point is to protect individual rights.�

College basketball fans from several states now have their sights on Kansas City and the second and third rounds of the NCAA tournament starting Thursday. The NCAA brackets had only been set for 30 minutes or so Sunday night when the phone inside the sales office at Kansas City’s The Hilton President started ringing.

“How are they going to do that?� he asked. Higher education officials did win a victory when Rep. Ward Cassidy, R-St. Francis, won approval of an amendment that lifted a wage and salary cap that had been placed on universities. Higher education representatives had complained loudly that the cap would have frozen even federal and private grant funds. But the provision, essentially freezing salary and wage expenditures to current levels, remains in the bill for the rest of state government. Rep. Melanie Meier, D-Leavenworth, said that will prevent the understaffed prison system from filling vacant positions. Several legislators complained they were given just a little more than one day to analyze the 512page budget. “I think they understand that there is so much bad stuff in this budget that they don’t want people to have time to read it — or else they wouldn’t support it,� said Rep. John Wilson, DLawrence. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

“They’re asking parents who can afford it to pay, and that would offset the costs. If we could get enough folks to pay for the program, possibly talk about it being a little more self-sustaining, and increase it further down the road. “So I would try to work strongly with the community to advocate for parents enrolling their students in a pre-K program in the Lawrence public schools instead of looking at a private model or a day care model.� Adair is one of four candidates vying for three seats on the school board in the April 2 general election. Born and raised in Oklahoma, Adair said she worked in Tulsa public schools as a paraeducator in an elementary school for English language learners. She and her husband, Joshua Montgomery, moved here in 2005 when he took a job with a local aerospace company. She worked one semester as a pre-kindergarten paraeducator at the former East Heights Early Childhood Family Center before returning to school and completing a history degree at Washburn University in Topeka. Adair and Montgomery now own Community Wireless Communications, which operates Wicked Broadband in Lawrence. Like the three other candidates, Adair says she strongly supports the district’s $92.5 million bond proposal that also will be on the ballot. “I’m just hoping that if enough people understand that this is an investment in our community,

If state lawmakers reduce base funding, Adair said she would look first at reducing outside contracts before cutting programs or raising local property taxes. “I’d hate to try to lay more of the burden on property owners,� Adair said. “Sometimes you have a particular vendor you use, and that’s the one you’ve always used, but if you put another (request for proposals) out, you can get some new bids.� In response to other issues being debated in the Kansas Legislature, Adair said she is also a strong supporter of collective bargaining rights for teachers. She also said she is skeptical of, although not necessarily opposed to, expanding charter school programs. “I would not really advocate for them in Lawrence unless I was given enough information to see that they were really a vital necessity,� Adair said.

ANNE EISENHOWER, LEFT, AND SUSAN EISENHOWER, granddaughters of former President Dwight D. Eisenhower, attend a House subcommittee hearing Tuesday on the Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Completion Act.

Eisenhower family wants new D.C. memorial design WASHINGTON (AP) — The future of a planned memorial honoring Dwight D. Eisenhower was thrown into doubt Tuesday as lawmakers questioned the project’s design and cost and the 34th president’s family called again for the memorial project to be redesigned. A House panel hosted a hearing on the 14-year-old project, which is planned for a site on the National Mall near the National Air and Space Museum. Planners could lose that space, though, without an extension soon from Congress. For more than a year, the memorial’s design by architect Frank Gehry has been criticized by some for its “avant-garde approach� to memorial architecture and praised by others for its innovative elements. Gehry proposed a memorial park for Eisenhower with statues of the two-term president and World War II hero — framed by large, metal tapestries depicting a Kansas landscape from his boyhood home. On Tuesday, Eisenhower’s family threw its support behind new legislation in Congress that would scrap the design, start a new design competition and block any more

federal funding for the current concept. Already about $60 million has been allocated for the $142 million project. Eisenhower’s family has objected to Gehry’s design, calling it “too extravagant� — in particular the metal tapestries held up by 80-foot-tall columns. “We are, again, back in a period of austerity, much like the 1950s after World War II,� said Susan Eisenhower, the president’s granddaughter, noting Eisenhower managed several balanced federal budgets. “A memorial that is so grandiose and so large in scale sort of misses the point of what his story can offer the American public.� Retired Brig. Gen. Carl Reddel, the executive director of the memorial commission, told lawmakers that members had worked hard to reflect Eisenhower’s legacy as president and war general in the design. “The historical record suggests that great, iconic architecture is always controversial,� he said. There were disputes over memorializing George Washington with an obelisk and over the designs for memorials honoring Abraham Lincoln and Franklin D. Roosevelt, he said.

of Lawrence Douglas County Fire Medical is retiring at the age of 56. The longest-serving member of the department, he has seen a lot of fires in that time, and a lot of changes. He has watched the city grow — Kasold was the last paved road to the west when Johnson joined the department — and raised sons and daughters to take up careers in nursing and law enforcement, a tradition he attributes to his father the sheriff and his firefighter buddies.

The last to ride the tailboard “I wanted to do something to help people,� Johnson said. “People call you on their worst day. It’s a public service way of life.� In his early life, when Rex was still sheriff, Johnson grew up in a house attached to the old Douglas County Jail. His mother cooked meals for the inmates, and his father was always running out at odd hours for crimes and accidents. Up until he graduated from Lawrence High School in 1974, Johnson said, he thought he would be a lawman like his father. “My dad told me to get a job,� Johnson joked. He couldn’t join law enforcement because he wasn’t 21 yet. But at the time, he could join the fire department. He knew and admired firefighters like Capt. Bob Coleman and Monty Pearson, so he applied and was hired. In those days, there was no three-month training as there is today. “I showed up the first day at 7 o’ clock in the

ALLEN JOHNSON, LEFT, is presented a firefighter’s ax by Chief Mark Bradford at a retirement reception Tuesday marking Johnson’s more than 38 years of service. morning, they gave me uniform, and told me, ‘Ride on the truck and don’t fall off,’� Johnson said. “I’m the last one that rode on the tailboard of those trucks. Things were different back then.� In those days, the department just fought fires, so it was a great change when the department took on medical and emergency rescue duties. And Johnson’s first boss, retired Fire Capt. Lloyd Hammerschmidt, said Johnson was one of the captains who helped steer the department through that transition. “I always could count on him,� Hammerschmidt said. “You work 24 hours, and it’s kind of like a family. You know each others’ problems, you horse around. We had a lot of great times. “To do that, you have to like to learn. And he liked to learn and, later, to teach.�

Hard memories This week, the firefighters of Lawrence and Douglas County celebrated Johnson’s retirement and, at the same time, their history. Fellow captains have been busy assembling old photographs and video of

their most senior captain, and the thing every firefighter says about Johnson is that he was around a long time and saw a lot of big fires. Sometimes, he said, it weighs on him. There were bad fires in the late 1970s, such as the Pier 1 explosion in 1977, when the store at the northwest corner of Eighth and Massachusetts streets was blown apart by a natural gas leak, killing two men at the spot where Noodles and Company now stands. There was the fire at the Yuck Up and Yuck Down bar near Ninth and Iowa streets. And Johnson remembers when firefighter Mark Blair died in an intentionally set fire at a house in the 3000 block of Rimrock Drive in 1986. “That was hard,� Johnson said. And there were other deaths over the years, too. “A lot of them were kids,� he said. “I try not to think about it too much.�

‘Bigger than life’ Johnson’s daughter Kelly Mondi remembers the good times, and some of her best memories were of her father visiting her second-grade classroom for fire department “Stop, Drop and Roll� safety presentations, instilling awe in the children when he arrived in the firetruck and in his firefighter gear. “I would just be giddy,� Mondi said. “He was bigger than life. You always think your dad is special, but this was when I realized he was different.� When Johnson’s brother, David, was killed in a car accident in 1995, Johnson raised his brother’s sons, Colton and Jake, as his own. Now, Colton is a deputy with the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office, and Johnson’s sonin-law, Greg Murray, is a firefighter in Lawrence. Mondi is a nurse, and her brother Kyle Bulmer is a police officer in Baldwin City. In retirement, Johnson said, he hopes to make up for all of the baseball games and birthdays he missed during his career. He has 10 grandchildren, and Johnson looks forward to watching his adopted son, Jake, play baseball at Allen Community College in Iola. Then, too, he has Rex, 81, and his mother, Shirley, 80, to keep on eye on. The former sheriff said he’s looking forward to seeing his son more. “We’re real proud of him,� Rex Johnson said. “He’s a good kid.� — Reporter Ian Cummings can be reached at 832-7144 .

Pentagon bans mortar after Marines killed Assault weapons CONGRESS

ban out of bill

Associated Press

HAWTHORNE, NEV. — A mortar shell explosion killed at least seven Marines and injured several more during mountain warfare training in Nevada’s high desert, prompting the Pentagon to immediately halt the use of the weapons until an investigation can determine their safety, officials said Tuesday. The explosion occurred Monday night at the Hawthorne Army Depot, a sprawling facility used by troops heading overseas, during an exercise involving the 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force from Camp Lejeune, N.C. Several Marines from the unit were injured in the blast, authorities said. The mortar round exploded in its firing tube during the exercise, Brig. Gen. Jim Lukeman said at a news conference at Camp Lejeune. He said investigators were trying to determine the cause of the malfunction. The Pentagon expanded a temporary ban to prohibit the military from firing any 60 mm mortar rounds until the results of the investigation. The Marine Corps said Tuesday a “blanket suspension” of 60 mm mortars and associated firing tubes is in effect. The Pentagon earlier had suspended use of all high-explosive and illumi-

MARINE BRIG. GEN. JIM LUKEMAN addresses the media Tuesday outside the gates of Camp Lejeune, N.C. At least seven Marines from the base were killed in a mortar accident in Nevada on Monday night, and 60 mm shells were immediately banned by the Pentagon. nation mortar rounds that were in the same manufacturing lots as ones fired in Nevada. It was not immediately clear whether more than a single round exploded, a Marine Corps official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the official wasn’t authorized to speak about an ongoing investigation. The Marine Corps said early Tuesday that seven Marines were killed. But John Stroud, national junior vice commander in chief for the Veterans of

Foreign Wars, began a memorial event in Hawthorne on Tuesday night by saying “one of the critical has passed,” bringing the death toll to eight. Members of the women’s Auxiliary of VFW 231 then laid a wreath and eight individual floral arrangements at a park where a flag flew at half-staff within sight of the Hawthorne depot’s boundary. “We honor the eight brave Marines who gave their lives to their country,” Stroud said. “When

the call of the country was heard, these eight young Marines answered.” Stroud said he spoke with Marine officers from Camp Lejeune who told him about the eighth death before the ceremony. Capt. Binford R. Strickland, a spokesman at Camp Lejeune, said in an email late Tuesday that he could only confirm that seven were killed and eight were injured. The identities of those killed won’t be released until 24 hours after their families are notified.

WASHINGTON — An assault weapons ban won’t be in the gun-control legislation that Democrats bring to the Senate floor next month, a decision that means the ban’s chances of survival now are all but hopeless. The ban is the most controversial firearms restriction that President Barack Obama and other Democrats have pressed for since an assault-type weapon was used in the December massacre at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. Rejection by Congress would be a major victory for the National Rifle Association and its supporters and a setback for Obama and the provision’s sponsor, California Sen. Dianne Feinstein. In a tactical decision, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., concluded that including the prohibition in the gun bill would jeopardize the chances for passage of any firearms legislation at all, taking away votes that would be needed to overcome Republican attempts to block the Senate from even taking up the issue. “I very much regret it,” Feinstein said Tuesday of the choice that Reid

told her he had made. “I tried my best. But my best, I guess, wasn’t good enough.” Feinstein’s proposal to prohibit military-style weapons will still get a vote as an amendment to the gun legislation that Democrats debate. But she is all but certain to need 60 votes from the 100-member Senate to prevail, and she faces solid Republican opposition as well as likely defections from some Democrats. Reid told reporters that “using the most optimistic numbers,” there were less than 40 votes for Feinstein’s ban. That is far less than the 60 votes needed to move contested legislation in the chamber, which has 53 Democrats plus two independents who usually back them. “I’m not going to try to put something on the floor that won’t succeed. I want something that will succeed. I think the worst of all worlds would be to bring something to the floor and it dies there,” Reid said. Gun-control supporters also consider a strong Senate vote on an overall bill important because it could put pressure on the Republican-run House, whose leaders have shown little enthusiasm for most of Obama’s proposals.

Sheriff: Missing mom staged disappearance KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — To law enforcement agencies, the disappearance of a Missouri woman and her young daughter for four days had all the markings of an abduction: a cryptic text message asking for help, a phone call that sounded like it was being read from a script, an exhusband with a history of domestic violence. Instead, Rachel Koechner told investigators Monday night that she slipped away with Davon Sandner, the ex-husband who’s the father of her 4-year-old daughter, last week as part of a plan she devised a day before they took off. Koechner, Sandner and their child were

found Monday in a home in Linn County about 100 miles northeast of Kansas City after someone saw them getting gas in nearby Brookfield and called police. “Her family has such a strong hatred for her ex-husband, and his family has a strong hatred for her. They just wanted to be together,” said Chariton County Sheriff Chris Hughes, whose department is leading the case. Koechner was staying at her mother’s house in Rothville in northern Chariton County when

she disappeared. Hughes said she left Thursday with Sandner and their daughter. They spent most of the time they were missing at a low-rate suburban Kansas City motel, where Koechner, 28, and Sandner, 37, smoked synthetic marijuana and laid low while law enforcement agencies frantically searched for them. Empty wrappers that had contained the artificial pot were found in Sandner’s vehicle, and it appeared the couple had smoked the substance with their daughter nearby, the sheriff said.

Koechner’s sister, Brandi Koechner, said family members are relieved that the mother and daughter have been found safe, but they’re stunned by Rachel Koechner’s actions — especially after a nasty divorce that was finalized in November. “The whole family is pretty much confused, hurt, upset, but glad we got the little girl back,” Brandi Koechner said. “We don’t understand any of it.” She said 4-year-old Zoee Sandner is now staying with Koechner’s mother and other relatives in Rothville, and that the family is planning to seek custody of the girl.

Lululemon has yanked its popular black yoga pants from store shelves and online after it found that the sheer material used was revealing too much of its loyal customers. The see-through yoga garb is the latest in a series of quality glitches that threatens to alienate the retailer’s hardcore fan base, which has so far been more than willing to shell out $100 for pants and other athletic garments. These legions of followers have helped Lululemon, founded in 1998, become a billiondollar business.

WASHINGTON — A dispute over budget cuts that threaten dozens of smaller control towers with closure slowed Senate progress Tuesday on legislation to avoid a government shutdown on March 27. Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., refused repeatedly to permit final passage of the measure unless Moran Democrats first allow a vote on his plan for erasing most of the cuts aimed at towers operated by Federal Aviation Administration contract employees. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., just as persistently declined to give in, and other Democrats noted that House Republicans had rejected calls to give all federal agencies the type of budget flexibility that Moran was seeking. The test of wills endured as Republicans and Democrats in Congress struggled with two goals — ensuring there is no interruption of routine government funding while simultaneously vying for political advantage in the wake of $85 billion in across-the-board spending cuts that kicked in earlier this month.

Across the Capitol, the Republican-controlled House began debate on a budget that promises to eliminate federal deficits in decade. The blueprint, authored by Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., calls for $6.4 trillion in spending cuts and no tax increases, and is expected to clear by week’s end. For their part, Senate Republicans kept their distance from the plan, deciding not to seek a symbolic vote on it when the Senate begins its own budget debate later in the week. Sensing an opportunity for political mischief, Senate Democrats vowed not to let Republicans off easy. They said they would require a vote on Ryan’s budget — even though they unanimously oppose it. As gridlock gripped the Senate, the top U.S. commander in South America told Congress the cuts would reduce if not eliminate the entire fleet of ships used to counter drug-runners. Gen. John Kelly said that U.S. forces seized 150 to 200 tons of cocaine last year. If the budget cuts stand, “next year all of that will make its way ashore and into the United States,” he told the Senate Armed Services Committee. In the Senate, Moran said, “It’s not my nature to be an obstructionist” as he pressed his case. He added that his proposal

has support from senators in both parties and that House Republican leaders have indicated the bill’s final approval would not be jeopardized if the change were incorporated. Democrats responded tartly. “I want to restore the Head Start to 70,000 children. I want to restore 10,000 teacher jobs,” countered Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., referring to the threatened impact of across-the-board cuts elsewhere in the budget. In general, senior members of the Senate Appropriations Committee have worked harmoniously to ease the impact of the $85 billion in spending cuts on numerous agencies. As drafted, the measure includes House-passed provisions to give the Pentagon and the Department of Veterans Affairs flexibility in coping with the cuts. It also extends similar leeway to the departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Justice and Homeland Security, as well as the Food and Drug Administration. There was no such provision for the FAA, where Moran said officials had ordered a 75 percent cut in funding for airport towers operated by contract employees even though the agency’s overall reduction is 5 percent. The Kansan suggested strongly that Democrats were playing politics with the issue.

CHARDON, OHIO — Wearing a T-shirt with “killer” scrawled across it, a teenager cursed and gestured obscenely as he was given three life sentences Tuesday for shooting to death three students in an Ohio high school cafeteria. T.J. Lane, 18, had pleaded guilty last month to shooting at students in February 2012 at Chardon High School, east of Cleveland. Investigators have said he admitted to the shooting but said he didn’t know why he did it. Before the case went to adult court last year, a juvenile court judge ruled that Lane was mentally competent to stand trial despite evidence he suffers from hallucinations, psychosis and fantasies. Lane was defiant during the sentencing, smiling and smirking throughout, including while four relatives of victims spoke. After he came in, he calmly unbuttoned his blue dress shirt to reveal the T-shirt reading “killer,” which the prosecutor noted was similar to one he wore during the shooting. At one point, he swiveled around in his chair toward the gallery where his own family members and those of the slain teenagers were sitting and spoke suddenly, surprising even his lawyer.

“The hand that pulled the trigger that killed your sons now masturbates to the memory,” he said, then cursed at and raised his middle finger toward the victims’ relatives. A statement released later to local media by the court on the judge’s behalf said that he wasn’t aware of the shirt and that if he had noticed it he would have halted the proceedings and ordered Lane to wear proper attire. A student who was wounded in the rampage dismissed Lane’s outburst. “He said it like a scared little boy and couldn’t talk slow enough that anyone could understand him,” said Nate Mueller, who was nicked in the ear in the shooting. Dina Parmertor, mother of victim Daniel, called Lane “a pathetic excuse for a human being” and wished upon him “an extremely, slow torturous death.” She said she has nightmares and her family has been physically sick over the crimes. “From now on, he will only be a killer,” she said, as Lane’s smile widened. “I want him to feel my anger toward him.” Prosecutors say Lane took a .22-caliber pistol and a knife to the school and fired 10 shots at a group of students in the cafeteria. Daniel Parmertor and Demetrius Hewlin, both 16, and Russell King Jr., 17, were killed.

Access to care State officials can’t be satisfied with the fact that 28,000 people in the new KanCare program can’t access dental care in their own counties.

G

eographical gaps in the availability of dental care in Kansas have been an area of concern for some time, but those gaps are becoming far more serious for Kansans who depend on the state’s new Medicaid program, known as KanCare. Dental services for children always have been included in Medicaid coverage, but KanCare extends coverage of preventive dental services to adults. That sounds great, but coverage of those services doesn’t necessarily mean that adults will be able to access care. Information collected by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment last summer indicated that 13 Kansas counties didn’t have a single dentist practicing within their borders. That, in itself, is a significant problem. However, more recent data collected by KDHE indicate that 37 counties, more than one-third of the counties in the state, have no dentist who will accept KanCare clients. According to the Kansas Dental Project, that leaves more than 28,000 Kansans who can’t access the dental care covered by the KanCare plan without traveling to a neighboring county or, perhaps, across several counties in western parts of the state. A Dental Project representative noted that KanCare clients in a number of other counties also may have to travel outside the county for dental care. The clients must choose from among three private managed care organizations for all of their care, and if the dentists in their county only contract with one or two of the private companies, there may be additional service gaps. One move that likely would help close the gap is the creation of a new category of “registered dental practitioners.” The Kansas Dental Project has proposed legislation to allow dental hygienists who receive advanced training and pass a comprehensive clinical exam to work under the supervision of a dentist to provide routine and preventive care. Having registered dental practitioners in underserved areas of the state may be part of the solution, but the large gaps in KanCare dental coverage also indicate that many dentists in the state are unwilling — for whatever reason — to provide services through the new Medicaid system. Whether it’s convenience, cost or some other issue that is causing them to shun the system, it’s up to state officials to work with dentists to make sure KanCare clients not only have coverage but can access care within a reasonable geographic area.

Venezuela election not a fair fight When Venezuela’s opposition candidate Henrique Capriles Radonski says the April 14 presidential election will be a “David versus Goliath” fight, in which the government’s candidate will have a formidable advantage, he’s not kidding. In fact, the election to pick the successor of the late President Hugo Chavez will be one of the most uneven electoral contests we have seen anywhere in recent times. Consider: First, acting President Nicolas Maduro, the government’s candidate, has manipulated the electoral agenda by extending Chavez’s mourning for several weeks. This gives a huge propaganda advantage to Maduro. He will not only benefit from the near deification of the late president in state-controlled media, but will also be able to use the daily governmentorganized ceremonies in Chavez’s memory to make nationally televised campaign speeches. Second, Maduro has enjoyed much more time than Capriles to organize his electoral machine because he misled Venezuelans into believing that Chavez’s health was improving, and that there would be no need for an election. Until shortly before announcing Chavez’s death, Maduro claimed for months that Chavez was recovering, even personally holding cabinet sessions from his Cuban hospital bed. Whenever press reports raised doubts about Chavez’s real

Andres Oppenheimer aoppenheimer@miamiherald.com

“

It would be a disaster for the opposition to throw in the towel, dismantle its electoral apparatus, and not even try to beat Maduro.” condition, Maduro angrily denounced such stories as “CIA-spread lies.” Third, Maduro will have a more than 10-1 advantage in television propaganda time. The opposition candidate’s campaign will have the right to use only four minutes of paid advertising time per day, per television channel. Maduro, on the other hand, will be able to use those same four minutes, plus another 10 minutes allotted for government public service ads, plus an unlimited time of obligatory nationally broadcast speeches that Maduro can make in his capacity as acting president to address any issue he chooses, or his speeches at ceremonies in Chavez’s memory. Counting the latter, Maduro’s TV time advantage may be closer to 100-1.

Fourth, the government has so far not accepted Capriles’ request for a nationally televised debate. Fifth, the government has not allowed time for a thorough review of voter registration lists. Venezuela has an unusually high number of registered voters — nearly 19 million in a country of 29 million — which has led opposition leaders to suspect that Cuban officials, who are officially in charge of Venezuela’s national identification system, are giving out more than one voter registration card to pro-government public employees. Sixth, government intimidation of anti-Chavez voters is rampant. Defense Minister Diego Molero, whose armed forces will be in charge of protecting voting places on Election Day, said in a public ceremony on March 7 that Venezuela’s National Bolivarian Armed Forces are “anti-imperialist, socialist and Chavistas.” Just as important, many Venezuelans believe that the government’s biometric identity screeners at the polls can identify opposition voters. The government is believed to encourage these rumors because they scare away many anti-Chavistas from voting, opposition leaders say. Seventh, Maduro’s government will not allow neutral international election observers, such as electoral missions from the European Union or the Organization of American States. Instead, it will only allow an “election accompani-

ment mission,” of UNASUR, a South American regional group that Chavez helped create, and that has often served as a regional stamp of approval for his policies. While electoral observer missions are systematic efforts to evaluate an entire election process, including fair access to the media by all sides, that begin months in advance, “accompaniment missions” only arrive in the country close to Election Day to witness the voting. Eighth, Venezuela’s election oversight authorities are a joke, as is its entire justice system. The National Electoral Council and the Supreme Court are run by pro-government officials. And Venezuela’s attorney general is not only a government supporter — she’s Maduro’s wife. My opinion: More than a David versus Goliath fight, as Capriles described it, the April 14 election will be a match in which one fighter — the opposition candidate — will enter the ring with both hands tied behind his back. Granted, Capriles must run. He has little option. It would be a disaster for the opposition to throw in the towel, dismantle its electoral apparatus, and not even try to beat Maduro. But if Maduro wins, as seems likely, it will be absurd for the world to judge the election outcome as proof that Chavismo is immensely popular in Venezuela. — Andres Oppenheimer is a Latin America correspondent for the Miami Herald.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 20, 1913: YEARS “Another manufacAGO turer is seeking for IN 1913 a location for a factory in Lawrence. Arthur Losey of Girardeau, Missouri, is the latest to propose to bring a manufacturing institution to Lawrence. Mr. Losey would build a factory here for the purpose of manufacturing motor-driven farm machinery. He proposes to establish an institution here which would employ 300 men.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Election change To the editor: Current legislation pending before the Kansas House and Senate election committees (HB 2227 and SB 211) is a classic example of a solution in search of a problem. If the legislation is approved, it would move local general elections to November and make them partisan races. Even if SB 145 is approved, which keeps local elections in odd-numbered years but moves them to August (primary) and November (general) and makes them partisan races, it is unlikely to increase voter turnout. It is well-established that Kansas has a strong respect for local ordinances. There is no greater example than that of independent, nonpartisan elections. The current structure maintains the autonomy of cities and counties, and provides the necessary independent dialogue for effective elections. Although it is true that you can never separate politics from elections, local races center much more on issues. Voters can discuss these issues directly with their representatives and candidates at any time. It is the essence of grass-roots democracy and essential for effective governance. The requirement for partisan elections will only damage the current dialogue. In the interest of voter education and local autonomy, I encourage voters to contact their legislators and express their opposition to these changes. Patrick Wilbur, Lawrence

Party plaint To the editor: It would be interesting to know how many moderate Republicans have switched parties, or, as I have, voted for

for the future of this fine community? On March 25, item TA-12-00206 will come before the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission: “Consider Text Amendments to the City of Lawrence Land Development Code, Chapter 20, various articles, to change the requirement that development projects be required to comply with Horizon 2020. Initiated by City Commission on 8/21/12.” This is a concern for myself and I would think for all taxpayers as stakeholders. Every community needs development guidelines for sake of continuity and fiscally responsible management of our tax dollars. The quality of life in our neighborhoods and the downtown business district are important factors as well. More than half all Americans live in areas where the air is unsafe to breathe. Is this what Lawrence wants for Lawrence? Helter skelter development wastes tax dollars. It pulls tax dollars away from existing neighborhoods and spreads them out over new developments that increase demand on services. Taxpayers want to make sure we tie increased fees/taxes to when the demand is being generated — NOT cart before the horse. Historically the revenues generated by new residential housing do not pay for the many services they require from a municipality. This leads to degradation of our older neighborhoods and, contrary to popular belief, leads to higher taxes. Residential taxes on the east side of town should not be subsidizing development on the west side of town. Eastside taxes should be revitalizing the east To the editor: side, with extremely few exceptions. Do Lawrence taxpayers want a helter Richard Heckler, skelter planning document as the plan Lawrence Democrats or moderate Republicans, at both the state and federal level. In the old days, there were voters known as Dirty Dog Democrats; these were Democrats who would vote for a dirty dog before they would vote for a Republican. This sobriquet could just as well apply to modern day Republicans who will vote for anybody who has a capital R before their name, regardless of the candidate’s political philosophy or ability. This is in spite of what the governor and his minions are doing to the state of Kansas in their reach for complete power. Recently, I was furnished a national Republican Party survey to fill out and send in to party headquarters. I did so with answers which will not be pleasing to the party and with the following comment. “I am a moderate Republican whose Party left me about when the BushCheney-Rumsfeld Iraq war began. I would love to belong to the old Republican Party again, but since it has become the Tea Party, totally beholden to the big money, the NRA, the Chamber of Commerce and big corporations, and opposed to anything progressive, I, like many other moderate Republicans, have very little in common with the present GOP. It is no longer Grand nor Old. The Tea Party’s efforts to defeat, by any means, moderate Republicans in the primaries running for state and federal offices, efforts which ignored personal beliefs or abilities, really ripped it for me.” Robert R. Evans Sr., Lawrence

Roy riled up about seeding, not KU By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

WKU keeping it simple vs. Jayhawks By Matt Tait

Roy Williams nearly spit out his Coca-Cola when CBS announcer Greg Gumbel reported Sunday that his North Carolina Tar Heels had been handed a No. 8 seed in the NCAA Tournament and would be headed to Kansas City, Mo., for second- and possible third-round games. Williams, needless to say, figured UNC (24-10) deserved a better scenario than that. “I don’t mind telling you I was stunned,” said Williams, the former Kansas University coach, who is staring at a possible third-round match-up with KU on Sunday in Sprint Center if the Heels beat Villanova and the No. 1-seeded Jayhawks stop Western Kentucky on Friday night. “When I saw North Carolina and the No. 8, I was

stunned. It took me a couple seconds ... ‘Hey, that’s us. It’s not somebody else, that’s us.’ I was disappointed for our league (ACC) — two 2s (Duke, Miami) and two 8s (UNC and N.C. State). I don’t think that was good for our league. I don’t think it was necessarily fair for our league, but you’ve heard me say this 100 times. It

is what it is, so we’ve got to go play,” Williams added. As far as possibly playing KU ... “It’s the same thing. You say ‘Wow,’” Williams said in a news conference Tuesday in Chapel Hill, N.C. “But I’m thinking about Villanova. I really am. It was a surprise being No. 8. It was a little surprise going to play (KU) in Kansas City if we win one game, but if you start thinking about playing Kansas in Kansas City you forget about the biggest duty and that’s to win a game to even get there.” Williams was asked if he “buys” the NCAA Tournament committee’s assertion it does not set match-ups or potential match-ups like KUUNC for TV. “I am not much of a buyer right now, guys,” Williams told the media. “They can say anything they want to say and they’ve got num-

bers to substantiate it. You can sit right across the table from them and substantiate with some other numbers. I will say this ... they didn’t put North Carolina in Kansas City to fill the arena. The arena is going to be filled anyway if Kansas plays Slippery Rock. I don’t know what goes through their mind. It was a confusing (selection) show and I’m still confused and I’m a fairly intelligent person.” Expressing disappointment ACC champ Miami didn’t earn a No. 1 seed, Williams said: “Guys, everything you say right now gets blown out of proportion. Everybody says you’re whining and all that stuff. You’ve still got to frickin’ play. Did I like it? No. Did I think it was fair? No. I happen to think they (Hurricanes) are a

Like just about all underdogs in March, Western Kentucky men’s basketball coach Ray Harper has demonstrated nothing but respect for top-seeded Kansas University since learning his Hilltoppers would face the Jayhawks in the second round of the NCAA Tournament at 8:50 p.m., Friday in Kansas City, Mo. But just because Harper lauds the talent of KU (29-5) does not mean he wants to see it. “I’m trying to watch as little film as I can,” Harper said Tuesday morning during a teleconference with outof-town media. “It makes it hard to sleep at night.” Although the 16th-seeded Hilltoppers (20-15) figure to have dissected plenty of game film on the Jayhawks by the time tipoff rolls around, the second-year WKU head coach sounded more interested in emphasizing what his team must do to compete than anything else. “The key for us will be real simple,” Harper said. “Take care of the basketball and eliminate silly turnovers. Every time you turn it over it’s an opportunity you don’t have to score, and we need to get it up on the rim as many times as possible Friday night.”

SPRING SPORTS PREVIEW • LAWRENCE HIGH

Lions’ teams ready for whatever spring might bring By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Some have state championship experience, others have ambitions of reaching that level, but all of Lawrence High’s spring sports athletes can’t wait to get the season in full swing once spring break ends next week. Here is a look at what all of the Lions’ programs expect out of the upcoming months of competition.

LAWRENCE HIGH ATHLETES, FROM LEFT, SENIOR BRETT VAN BLARICUM (boys golf), in front, senior Tim Thongone (boys tennis), in back, senior Ryan Shackelford (boys track and field), senior Monica Howard (girls track and field), junior Marly Carmona (softball), senior Heather Cistola (girls swimming), senior C.J. Stuever (baseball) and senior Ella Magerl (girls soccer) hope to lead the Lions to successful spring seasons.

Baseball Losing in the first round of the 2012 Class 6A state tournament has Lawrence’s baseball players eager to get on the field this spring and erase the painful memory of a 1-0 loss to eventual state runner-up Blue Valley West. Though coach Brad Stoll said the Lions don’t have a lot of depth with their position players, he is confident in the LHS starters, as well as the pitching staff. “I think the pieces are there to make a good run,” Stoll said. “We can’t have anybody get hurt.”

Back from last year’s 14-9 team are shortstop Shane Willoughby, utility player CJ Stuever, catcher Drew Green and outfielder Kieran Severa. Stoll plans to use Bryce Montes de Oca, Adam Rea and Brandon Bell as starting pitchers. Stuever and Easton Barnes are available for middle relief and Willoughby, too valuable defensively to pitch many innings, will close. Infielder Michael Sinks and first baseman Jacob Seratte could make an impact as newcomers. The Lions open their season Friday at Edmond Memorial, Okla.

Boys golf Winter weather put Lawrence boys golf tryouts behind schedule, but coach Dirk Wedd thinks the next couple of months will be more manageable, with two returning state-qualifiers leading the Lions. Senior Brett Van Blaricum shot an 85 at Buffalo Dunes Please see LIONS, page 3B

UMKC taps Louisville assistant KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Rick Pitino will be losing one of his top lieutenants after the NCAA Tournament. Louisville assistant Kareem Richardson was hired Tuesday as the new coach at MissouriKansas City, where he’ll be rebuilding a program that never has qualified for the NCAA postseason and is leaving the Summit League for the Western Athletic Conference next season. Richardson will be introduced at a news conference Monday, though he’ll remain with the top-seeded Cardinals throughout the NCAA Tournament. Louisville opens Thurs-

day in the Midwest Regional in Lexington, Ky. “It is an honor and privilege to be named the next head coach at UMKC,� Richardson said in a statement issued by the school. “It had to take a special situation for me to leave.� Richardson has agreed to a five-year deal that will pay him $250,000 a year. The 38-yearold coach was an assistant at UMKC from 2007-08, and also has been an assistant at Xavier, Drake, Indiana State, Wright State and his alma mater, Evansville. He takes over for Matt Brown, who was fired after one winning season in five years.

The Roos have struggled to gain traction in Kansas City over the years, dwarfed by mighty Kansas just a short drive to the west. They transitioned from NAIA to Division I basketball in the late 1980s, but have had just one 20-win season since 1985. Brown had things going the right direction when UMKC went 16-14 two years ago, but the program has backtracked, going 10-21 last year and stumbling to an 8-24 finish this past season. “Our goal is to win the attention, and the hearts, of Kansas City sports fans,� UMKC Chancellor Leo Morton said. “Kansas City is the best college basketball town in the country,

and UMKC is Kansas City’s university. We believe Kareem Richardson can lead a program that will connect with the sports fans of Kansas City.� The Roos are leaving their longtime home in the Summit League for the WAC next season, where they’ll be joined by Cal State Bakersfield, Chicago State, Grand Canyon (Ariz.), Idaho, New Mexico State, Seattle, Texas-Pan American and Utah Valley in the new-look conference. UMKC athletic director Tim Hall said that Richardson’s reputation as a recruiter, along with his ties to the region, made him the natural choice to take over a program in transition.

NFL owners vote to approve two rule changes PHOENIX — Concerned with how it will be officiated, NFL owners delayed voting Tuesday on a rule change that would ban offensive players from using the crown of their helmets against defenders in the open field. After approving two other rule changes to enhance player safety, they stalled on the more contentious issue. NFL senior vice president of football operations Ray Anderson said the owners plan to vote on it today before the meetings end. The owners outlawed peel-back blocks anywhere on the field; previously, they were illegal only inside the tackle box. A player makes a peelback block when he is moving toward his goal line, approaches an opponent from behind or the side, and makes contact below the waist. The penalty will be 15 yards. “... really under no circumstances will you be permitted to block low below the waist when you’re blocking back toward your own end line,� said Rams coach Jeff Fisher, co-chairman of the competition committee. Also banned is overloading a formation while attempting to block a field goal or extra point. Defensive teams can now have only six or less players on each side of the snapper at the line of scrimmage. Players not on the line can’t push teammates on the line into blockers, either. The alignment violation is a 5-yard penalty. The pushing penalty is 15 yards for unnecessary roughness. “There were injuries, yes,� Fisher said. “Talking to coaches and the players, it’s just not something they look forward to doing. It’s like, ‘Oh, we scored again? We have to go out there and protect, kick an extra point or try?’� But the potential change that has drawn the most attention — yes, even more than eliminating the infamous tuck rule, which seems to be a foregone conclusion and will be voted on today — is prohibiting ball carriers outside the tackle box from lowering their helmets and making contact with defenders with the crown. New York Giants owner John Mara, a member of the competition committee that has recommended the change, said there was “a chance� a vote could be tabled until the May meetings in Boston.

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL

Media honor area players J-W Staff Reports

City and area basketball players earned All-Class recognition from both the Topeka Capital-Journal and Wichita Eagle. Free State High junior forward Khadre Lane was named to the Class 6A second team by the Eagle, and the third team by the Capital-Journal. Free State girls senior guard Kennedy Kirkpatrick picked up secondteam recognition from both papers. Lawrence High landed three players on the honorable mention lists: senior guard Jake Mosiman and freshman guard Jus-

tin Roberts from the LHS boys and junior forward Kionna Coleman from the Lions’ girls. The 5A teams included five Mill Valley players: Jaguars boys Nathan Stacy (second team) and Wyatt Voorhes (third team Capital-Journal, honorable mention Eagle), and Jaguars girls Stephanie Lichtenauer (first team), Tanner Tripp (third team Capital-Journal, honorable mention Eagle) and Mackenzie Conklin (honorable mention). Semi Ojeleye, senior forward for undefeated 4A boys champion Ottawa, was a consensus first-team selection and

his teammate Dallas Natt earned second team honors. Receiving honorable mention from both publications were Eudora’s Andrew Ballock, Baldwin’s Luke Fursman, Ottawa’s Alex Hasty and De Soto’s Quinton Verholtz. Tonganoxie’s Jack Dale and Santa Fe Trail’s Tyler Schafer made the CapitalJournal’s honorable mention. Among 4A girls, Tonganoxie’s Jenny Whitledge was a Capital-Journal second-team pick and honorable mention choice by the Eagle. De Soto’s Megan Bonar and Santa Fe Trail’s Holly Ullery were third-team selections by

the Capital-Journal and received honorable mention from the Eagle. Santa Fe Trail’s Shelby Dahl and Amber Moore both received honorable mention from the papers, while Baldwin’s Katie Jones and Ottawa’s Tara Lyday appeared on the CapitalJournal honorable mention list. In 3A, Wellsville’s Carter Mann was a consensus honorable mention pick and his teammate Cole Silsby made the CapitalJournal’s honorable mention list. McLouth senior Carter Gish showed up on the honorable mention lists for both papers.

One reason Harper believes that is possible is the re-emergence of sophomore guard T.J. Price — last year’s third leading scorer — who missed three games this season because of injury. “We missed him so much when he was injured,” said Harper, noting that Price was averaging 15 points and six assists per game at the time he went down. The Hilltoppers were 1-2 without Price this season and 1-3 in games in which he played less than 10 minutes. After easing his way back into action, the 6-foot-4, 208-pound guard has been on fire down the stretch and appears well equipped to handle the scoring burden. “The thing with T.J., he’s a very talented kid and he’s really matured in the last year-and-a-half,” Harper said. “Before, when things weren’t going well, the maturity level would get him, but he can play through those things now.” Never was that more evident than during last weekend’s Sun Belt Conference tournament, where Price was named Most Outstanding Player after averaging 18 points and four rebounds per game while topping 22 points in two games. Price’s strong start to the postseason helped WKU became the first team in NCAA history to win four conference tournament games in four days in back-to-back seasons to qualify for the NCAA Tournament. During the four-game stretch that included two two-point victories and one three-point win, Western Kentucky finished with fewer turnovers than its opponents and also locked in on defense, holding Florida

sensational basketball team. Those guys that are in the room ... they get to make those decisions.” Regarding his own team’s No. 8 seed, Williams stated that his team’s RPI was in the top 20. “I think the RPI is beneficial if that committee member wants it to be beneficial. I mean, our RPI is 17 or 18 something like that,” Williams said. “They’ve got a thousand things they can use. They can use what they want to use. I think at one point the RPI was probably — probably — more important than it is now. But again guys, our RPI was 17, 18 or 19. I’m good in math. Divide that by four and you don’t get to eight.” O Self on possible matchup: KU coach Bill Self again was asked about possibly going against Williams and UNC Tuesday, this time on KC radio station 810-WHB.

WESTERN KENTUCKY BASKETBALL PLAYERS FALL TO THE FLOOR near the team’s mascot after winning the Sun Belt Conference championship game, March 11 in Hot Springs, Ark. Western Kentucky defeated Florida International, 65-63, in that game and will face Kansas University on Friday night in Kansas City, Mo. International, Arkansas State, South Alabama and Louisiana Monroe to a combined shooting clip of 38 percent. For the season, WKU averaged 15.1 turnovers per game and held opponents to 42 percent shooting, but Harper be-

“Personally I don’t think it would be that tough (for Williams to coach in KC) because it’s been 10 years,” Self said. “Maybe the first time we met it would have been a different deal.” KU defeated the Tar Heels in the 2008 Final Four and 2012 regional finals. “There have been too many that were important games since then. If we are both fortunate enough to win it’d be another important game,” Self said. “Looking back, if I were going to go to Chicago and we were playing Illinois (where he coached three years), yes there may be some emotion, but not anything close to what it would have been seven, eight years ago from that respect. I know I wouldn’t use that as motivation for my team because none of these players ... they were in fifth, sixth grade back then, maybe seventh grade when that stuff was happening. I don’t think it’s as big a deal as maybe the media will play it out to be (if both win).”

lieves the importance of both areas will be magnified Friday night against Kansas. “I think, this time of year, you win with your defense and your ability to rebound the basketball,” Harper said. “If we turn the ball over at a high rate,

O Upcoming foe: Self, who has watched a lot of tape on Western Kentucky (20-15) this week, said he has great respect for the Hilltoppers, Friday’s 8:50 p.m., second-round foe in Sprint Center. “We are playing a team ... Western Kentucky may be a 16 seed ... weren’t they in the Sweet 16 just five years ago? And that’s a program that’s won games in the NCAA Tournament the last three appearances. They are not a typical 16 seed, and we know that,” Self said. O Decision day for Randle: Julius Randle, a 6-9 senior power forward from Prestonwood Christian Academy in Plano, Texas, will announce his college decision today during a noon NCAA Tournament program on ESPNU. ESPN’s website said the actual announcement will be at 12:15 p.m. The announcement will take place during an assembly in the high school gym. Randle has a final list of KU, Kentucky, Florida and Texas.

we’re in a lot of trouble, there’s no question about it. At times, that’s been something that’s been a problem for us and other times we’ve been really good. So hopefully that team that understands and values that basketball shows up Friday night.”

An ESPN panel of recruiting experts made their predictions Tuesday on ESPN’s website. Four chose KU, one Kentucky and one Florida. Randle, who missed most of the season with a foot injury, averaged 28.8 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks in five state playoff games while leading Prestonwood Christian to the 5A state title. He averaged 32.5 points and 15.5 rebounds in the Final Four. Randle, a McDonald’s All-AmerRandle ican who is ranked No. 2 nationally by Rivals. com, attended the KUTexas game on Feb. 16 as part of his official recruiting visit. KU also is in the running for the country’s No. 1 player, Andrew Wiggins, a 6-7 forward from Huntington (W.Va.) Prep, who has a list of KU, Kentucky, North Carolina and Florida State.

Golf Course, in Garden City, at last season’s championship, where junior Narito Mendez joined him in the state field. Wedd said senior Cole Cummins would have been there too, but an uncharacteristic off day at the regional tournament kept that from happening. This spring, the Lions hope to be better represented at state. “Our goal is always to get our team there,” Wedd said. “Right now I feel pretty good. We’ve got those three kids who have played a lot of varsity.” The seventh-year coach said LHS will need a newcomer such as Tucker Sutter or Brad Strauss to step up and help the team’s overall scoring. Lawrence opens its season March 27 at the Free State Invitational.

Boys tennis A two-time state-qualifier and returning state medalist, junior Thomas Irick has — by far — the most experience on Lawrence’s boys tennis team. Coach Chris Marshall’s program lost nine of its top 10 players from last season. He is trying to look at the positive side of that equation. “There will be plenty of opportunities for our younger players to make an impact,” Marshall said. Despite the loss of so many seniors from last year, Lawrence actually has better overall numbers this season. “There is a growing interest in tennis at LHS,” Marshall said, “so it is my job to get all of them better and play some competitive tennis this year.” The fourth-year coach admitted matches will be a challenge, especially early in the season. Austin Abbott, Tim Thongone, Christoph Brandt, Kley Bolivar, Adam Eudaly and Elliott Abromeit look to be the top contenders to join Irick on the varsity level. The Lions start their season Tuesday at Emporia. Girls soccer Lawrence’s girls soccer team has a new direction this spring, with first-year coach Justin Young. In pre-season workouts and practices, Young has been struck by the players’ unity as he learns about the group as a whole. “They are (a group) to accept challenges and they are one to always try to achieve, no matter what they’re asked,” Young said. LHS has a number of returning players, and just a few that have stood out are midfielder Ella Magerl, forward Addison Campbell and goalkeeper Alex Ewy. A new varsity addition, sophomore Keeli Billings, is expected to make an impact in the lineup, too. Though Lawrence struggled through a threewin season in 2012, Young thinks more victories are on the horizon. “With the work ethic and the drive that they’re showing, as long as they can maintain that,” he said, “they have every capability of improving on that number.” The Lions open the season Tuesday with a 7 p.m. home game against Baldwin.

KU women’s track preseason No. 1 Kansas University’s NCAA Indoor runner-up women’s track team was ranked as the preseason No. 1 outdoor team, the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association announced Tuesday. the Sunflower League and seventh at the 6A state meet. In 2013, coach Kent McDonald’s team returns every swimmer that contributed to the team’s points at the postseason meets. “We also have a relatively large team,” McDonald said, “with 39 swimmers and divers. We should get some good performances from many of these girls this season.” Reigning 200 IM state champion junior Gretchen Frick and 2012 100 fly state runner-up Heather Cistola lead the talented Lions. Seniors Miranda Rohn and Chandler McElhaney return, as do juniors Annie Odrowski, Allison Williams (diver), Madison Ruder, Sarah Smoot, Andrea Summey and Mary Wroten, as well as sophomores Alex Ginsberg, Hannah Lee and Nicole Oblon. McDonald expects swimmer Taylor Schoepf and divers Ashley Ammann and Katelyn Oury to contribute as freshmen, as well. LHS finished sixth at the season-opening Emporia Invitational. The Lions host the Lawrence Invite on Tuesday.

Softball Coach Nick Wood’s first season leading Lawrence softball had more setbacks than victories, but the Lions anticipate a more successful 2013, with most of their position players and two starting pitchers — Megan Sumonja and Amanda Montgomery — back for a chance to improve upon a 5-16 season. “This team will still be pretty young, as we don’t have any seniors,” Wood said, “but a lot of these girls that we will be putting on the field have played at a high level and understand what it is going to take to compete day in and day out in the Sunflower League.” Junior infielder Marly Carmona (second team all-league in 2012) leads Lawrence’s key returners, a group that includes infielder Morgan Byrn. Wood said freshman Katelyn Murrish could contribute immediately, likely as Lawrence’s catcher. Wood expects the Lions’ March 28 opener at home — against a Shawnee Mission Northwest team that swept LHS last year — to serve as a handy gauge of where the team stands.

Track Lawrence track coach Jack Hood doesn’t know yet exactly who will emerge from a slew of newcomers, but he is optimistic many will add to the talented collection of veterans the Lions have running, jumping and throwing this season. “We are excited about the potential we are seeing in the early practices,” Hood said. “We have a lot of young athletes that we hope can help us.” LHS also owns a valuable mix of experience on its girls roster. Seniors Monica Howard and Grace Morgan, junior Caitlin Broadwell and sophomores Leah Gabler, Matia Finley and Rebecca Finley have all qualified for or medaled at state. The same is true of junior Erik Parrish on the boys side, but he is a rare commodity on the young team. The Lions expect to gain experience on the fly and at the team’s first meet of the year Nick Benton, J’Mony Bryant, JD Woods and Tae Shorter won a 4x100 relay.

Making plans to take in the tourney? Single-game tickets could be costly Don’t expect to sit behind KU’s bench By Shaun Hittle

By Jesse Newell

Looking to get to the Sprint Center for the Jayhawks’ first two games of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament? It’ll cost you. On Tuesday morning, tickets for the first two rounds were going for an average of $500 a ticket, according to SeatGeek, a ticket brokerage business that monitors ticket prices. Those hot tickets include the Jayhawks’ opening match-up against Western Kentucky, the Villanova vs. North Carolina game and the Sunday game matching up the two winners. In fact, tickets to KU’s first two games are the most expensive seats — by $60 — in the opening rounds of the tournament, said Will Flaherty, a spokesman for SeatGeek. But if you’re looking to save a few bucks, wait a day or two. “Generally, we see the prices decline as the day gets closer,” he said. Fans can buy tickets for single games, or the entire set of games, known as a “strip,” in a regional. Buy-

The question probably comes up for many Kansas University basketball fans when watching the NCAA Tournament. Who are those KU fans behind the bench? And how do they get those seats? According to Jim Marchiony, KU’s assistant athletic director for public affairs, KU receives a set amount of tickets for each site in the NCAA Tournament. For the opening weekend at Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo., each team receives 350 tickets with the option of ordering 200 more tickets. Marchiony says KU picks up that option immediately. KU can’t sell all 550 of those tickets, though, as those seats include a block that is reserved for players’ and coaches’ friends and family. Typically, Marchiony said, that number is over 100. Those 550 tickets also include a 20-percent block that is reserved for students. That decreases the total by an additional 110. The remaining tickets

Flaherty’s general advice for the first set of games in Kansas City is to buy the entire strip. But, if you really hate the Tar Heels, and expect them to lose in their first round match-up, you could buy tickets to KU’s first game for about $160, and hope to get a good deal from a sulking Tar Heel fan exiting the Sprint Center after a loss to Villanova. It’s a roll of the dice, though, Flaherty said, as single-game seats to a po-

tential match-up between UNC and KU are currently the most expensive singlegame ticket in the opening rounds — about $233. Jayhawk optimists also might want to get in early for the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight games in Arlington, Texas, as prices are pretty low right now, Flaherty said, averaging about $225 a ticket. But don’t get too far ahead of yourself and book your spots at the Final Four in Atlanta, Flaherty cautions. Prices — currently at about $1,500 — typically drop as the games get closer and fans realize they won’t be seeing their favorite teams. “It makes sense to wait,” he said.

are sold based on the level of donorship. The KU donors in the highest club level get the first crack at the tickets before KU goes on down the line. Using that system, KU has sold out of its allotment in Kansas City for this weekend’s games. KU also prepares itself in advance. Earlier in the season, the athletic department asks donors if they are interested in tickets at each of the possible NCAA sites. “Obviously Kansas City is very, very high demand,” Marchiony said. “We get that information ahead of time so we know what we’re dealing with.” The tickets KU receives are only for the sessions that KU plays. That means those tickets, which are

sold at face value, will not allow those KU fans to get into the afternoon session Friday when fourth-seeded Kansas State and fifthseeded Wisconsin play their opening games. Marchiony said KU usually receives a few calls from fans this time of year wondering if tickets are still available through the school. “Our donors are pretty experienced at this whole process. They know the drill,” Marchiony said. “(Fans wanting tickets) is a great problem. It obviously speaks to the success that the program has had for so long that the tickets are in such demand.” KU’s allotment of tickets will increase to 1,250 if the Jayhawks make it to next week’s regional in Arlington, Texas. Marchiony said those tickets through the school also are sold out and have already been assigned should the Jayhawks advance. The other tickets that are not allotted to schools are sold by each arena. As of Tuesday, Sprint Center had sold out all of its tickets for KU’s first two games this weekend.

LIBERTY GUARD JOHN CALEB SANDERS (33) PASSES away from North Carolina A&T guard Jean Louisme (5) and forward Bruce Beckford in the first half of a first-round NCAA Tournament game, Tuesday in Dayton, Ohio.

NC A&T advances to face Louisville The Associated Press

NC A&T 73, Liberty 72 DAYTON, OHIO — After more than 30 years of trying, North Carolina A&T finally has an NCAA win. To do it, the Aggies had to survive one last, harrowing, close call. Substitute guard Jeremy Underwood tripled his average with 19 points, leading the Aggies (20-16) past resilient Liberty on Tuesday at the First Four to win their first NCAA tournament game after nine losses. The victory advanced the Aggies to a showdown with top-seeded Louisville (29-5) in Lexington, Ky., Thursday. “It’s been a long time,” first-year Aggies coach Cy Alexander said. It could have been even longer. The Flames (15-21) — only the second team ever to make the NCAA tournament with 20 losses — had a chance to win it in the final seconds. John Caleb Sanders drove coast to coast and flipped up a left-handed layup in heavy traffic that just glanced off the glass. A&T rebounded and, while Sanders rolled in pain on the baseline, began to celebrate a Cinderella season of its own. The Aggies had a losing record before starting play in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference tournament. Four wins later, they were back in the big dance, putting an end to a string of 15 consecutive losing seasons.

The Gaels (28-6) make a quick trip to Auburn Hills, Mich., to play sixth-seeded Memphis on Thursday. Saint Mary’s is making back-to-back NCAA tournament appearances for the first time in its history.

Nuggets 114, Thunder 104 OKLAHOMA CITY — Ty Lawson scored 25 points, Andre Miller had 20 points and nine assists, and Denver beat Oklahoma City on Tuesday night to win a 13th straight game for the first time since joining the NBA. The Nuggets trailed by one at halftime but took control in the third quarter and never let Oklahoma City reclaim the lead. Denver moved within 3 1/2 games of the Thunder in the Northwest Division and became the first team this season to beat Oklahoma City three times. It’s also a big win in the chase for home-court advantage in the playoffs for Denver, which is tied with Miami for the NBA’s best home record at 30-3. Kevin Durant had 34 points and Russell Westbrook chipped in 25 for Oklahoma City, which lost at home for just the fifth time this season.

OKLAHOMA CITY’S KEVIN DURANT, SECOND from left, blocks a shot by Denver’s JaVale McGee (34) in front of the Thunder’s Nick Collison (4) and the Nuggets’ Kenneth Faried, far right, on Tuesday night in Oklahoma City. Maurice Harkless and Arron Afflalo each had 10 points for the Magic, who lost their fourth straight on a night they shot just 31.8 percent from the field and coach Jacque Vaughn was ejected in a flurry of four technical fouls with 4:47 left in the third quarter.

SPRING VEGETABLE SOUP WITH LOW-FAT, HIGH-FLAVOR MATZO BALLS is lower in fat and calories, but doesn’t sacrifice any flavor.

A lighter take on matzo ball soup By Sara Moulton Associated Press

The Husband is Jewish and I am his shiksa bride. As young marrieds, we ignored both traditions equally. But when we had children, we began celebrating Jewish and Christian holidays alike, so that as the kids matured they could naturally gravitate to the rituals that moved them the most. Though I grew up in New York, I’d never attended a Passover seder until I met my future husband. I really enjoyed the meal, but the Passover service seemed so complicated that I felt a tad overwhelmed when it was time to produce my own seder. For that matter, even the meal — with its many platters of symbolic dishes — seemed pretty daunting. I knew I’d probably never attempt homemade gefilte fish, but I figured I might be able to produce a respectable matzo ball soup. At the time (now a generation ago) I owned no Jewish cookbooks, and there was no Internet. So what did I do? I called my mother-in-law. And what did she tell me? To make the recipe on the back of the matzo meal box. And? Except for the fact that I made the balls too big and they blew up to the size of tennis balls and took forever to cook, I felt pretty proud of my soup. It was tasty. Since then I’ve produced many matzo ball soups, and not always on Passover. My son, for one, loves it all year.

At the birthday dinner parties he used to throw for himself as a teenager (guess who cooked) matzo ball soup was always on the menu. Over time, I’ve refined the recipe from the back of the box. Like other cooks before me, I swapped out the vegetable oil in favor of schmaltz (chicken fat), which amps the flavor. I also began poaching the matzo balls not in water, but in broth. These techniques made for a notably dense matzo ball — sinkers, not floaters, as The Husband’s Aunt Yetta used to say. But my family liked them that way. However, for the purpose of this column, I wanted to dream up a matzo ball that is lower in fat and calories, but that doesn’t sacrifice any flavor. Considered as a whole — matzo balls and vegetables — this soup could stand alone as a hearty, one-pot dinner. If it strikes you as too hearty for the first course of a seder, simply add more chicken broth to thin it.

3 tablespoons low-sodium chicken broth For the soup: 1/2 pound shelled fresh fava beans or shelled fresh lima beans (or 1 2/3 cups defrosted frozen), or a combination 3 medium leeks 1/2 pound asparagus (about 1/2 bunch), tough ends discarded (peel the stalks if thicker than 1/3 inch) 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1/2 pound small white mushrooms, trimmed and quartered 10 cups low-sodium chicken broth 1 cup shelled fresh or defrosted frozen green peas Kosher salt and ground black pepper Chopped fresh dill, to garnish To make the matzo balls, in a large bowl stir together the matzo meal, salt and baking powder. Add the egg whites, vegetable oil and chicken broth, then stir until well combined. Cover and chill for 30 minutes. While the matzo mixture cools, prepare the If using fava Spring Vegetable vegetables. beans, in a large saucepan Soup With Low- bring 1 quart of salted wato a boil over high heat.

Italian wines ‘some of the best-kept secrets’ By Fred Tasker MCT

“I’m a woman who loves white wines,” says Laura De Pasquale, master sommelier. “I’m a freak for them.” De Pasquale was presenting “The Great Whites of Italy” at a “Simply Italian” tasting at MiamiDade College’s Culinary Institute in downtown Miami. “What I like about Italian whites is that they’re clean and modern,” she said. Often grown at high altitudes in the foothills of the Alps, Italian whites are crisp and lean from the cool climate. Exposed to intense, high-altitude sun in the thinner atmosphere, many of them develop something akin to tannins in their skins, she says. “Crisp acids are like Botox,” she said. “They keep the wines young. Some of these wines can almost act as red wines, with tuna, veal, game — maybe not big, red steaks.” In fact, she said, the viscous, powerful traminer is a good match for bacon.

The wines in the tasting were not the usual chardonnays and sauvignon blancs. Many of them were developed centuries ago in Italy. “I’m happy to see growing interest in indigenous varieties that many people may not have heard of,” she said. One of the more unusual Italian whites was from ribolla gialla, a finicky, yellowish-white grape little known outside of Northeast Italy’s FriuliVenezia Giulia region. “Its floral, not fruity,” said De Pasquale. “It’s complex, with aromas and flavors of honey and wax and orange peel, like a white Bordeaux.” “It’s great with shellfish,” added Marco Calligaris, export manager for the Friuli-based winery Conte d’Attimis-Maniago, which made the wine. Northern Italian winemakers put great importance on terroir — the climate, soil and winemaking techniques that make wines in their particular areas, Calligaris said. “Tradition and respect

for the terroir is the most important thing,” he said. An unusual presentation of a well-known grape was the pinot grigio spumante by the northeastern Italian winery Piera Martellozzo. Probably nobody at the tasting has ever tasted a sparkling pinot grigio, De Pasquale said. “Its slightly sparkling nature emphasizes its aroma of orange blossoms and other flowers. It’s high in acid, with pink grapefruit flavors.” She went on: ‘These are some of the best-kept secrets in the wine world.”

might not get to celebrate spring break, you know, being old and all, but that doesn’t mean I’m not excited about it. Not only does it mean the unofficial start of warm weather (hear that, snow!?) and March Madness, but it also means that spring is here. Or almost here. Or close enough that we can all start thinking about gardening. For months, I’ve been talking with a part-time farmer friend who is growing several types of kale this year. With each little update on this process (picking seeds, ordering seeds, starting seeds indoors), I’ve gotten more excited about the coming growing season. I’ve had a garden for three years — three raised beds plus a pretty good-sized container garden on my deck — and it’s been fun, though not necessarily highly productive. If I’m being honest, the last two summers have been a kick in the teeth as a gardener. Plants bolted. The bugs hit. Blossom end rot did in many tomatoes. Poor planning left some plants gasping for nutrients. My blueberries and raspberries were crushed by the heat, as were many of my container herbs — I’ve been able to kill three “unkillable” mint plants every single year (yes, the body count is at nine). Melons have never, ever thrived for me. Oh, and it turns out I hate weeding. That entire paragraph probably makes you wonder if I have a black thumb or why I’d ever want a garden in the first place, especially since I apparently stink at it. But here’s the thing: I don’t think I’m that bad at it (the weather had a lot to do with my kill rate) and I actually do find it fun. There’s something downright enjoyable about being able to go out and harvest what you put into the ground/raised bed/pot. And 100-degree temps, a hatred of weeding and bad luck aren’t going to change that. Because, here’s the thing: I think it’s incredibly important to get reconnected with where our food comes from. Growing up, we had a garden, but I only really remember harvesting tomatoes. And at the time, I don’t think I totally “got” how good a fresh tomato was. It was just a tomato that appeared in our backyard after way too frickin’ long. In fact, not only do I think I didn’t get it but I also think I didn’t really appreciate that homegrown food at all. It was a novelty, and the big, smooth vegetables sans imperfections from the grocery store seemed more like “actual” food to me. It’s silly to think about now, but I don’t know how I could’ve been so disconnected. And I don’t want my son to ever feel that out of touch

Eat Your Vegetables

Sarah Henning with what he puts in his mouth. It’s not that my parents didn’t try to interest me in our family garden, it’s more that the food culture was very different back then. We were in the middle of a shift from agricultural awareness to total blindness and back again — at least in my opinion and experience as a child of the ’80s. Today, we have the advantage of a resurgence in restoring some awareness of our food chain, not only where we buy it from, but where food comes from in general. And I want to keep that earth-to-table connection as plain as possible in my own kitchen, for my benefit and my family’s. My son knows more about how foods grow and come to be than I ever did at his age, and I’d like to make sure that knowledge stays with him. Because he helps in the garden, he tends to try new things just because he helped pick them. He doesn’t like everything, but there’s a better chance he’ll try something if he gets to harvest it himself than if he helps me pick it out at the store. So, I’m planning my three-season garden for a fourth straight year. I’ve learned I grow some foods rather well (potatoes, Swiss chard, cherry tomatoes) and some plants rather poorly (see my litany of murdered plants above), but I grow them, and that’s what matters. My planned plants for spring, summer and fall are as follows. As for which will survive, your guess is as good as mine. Potatoes (several types) Onion sets (white, yellow, red) Garlic Shelling peas Bush and pole beans Strawberries (on their third year) Blackberries (to replace my murdered berries) Kale (black and curly) Swiss chard Spinach Beets Tomatoes (black krim, Cherokee purple, sungold and sun sugar) Peppers (Italian and various bell) Herbs: basil (various), mint (various), sage (various), rosemary (various), thyme, parsley, marjoram, dill, garlic chives, cilantro (which I hate, but comes in handy) And anything else that ends up looking intriguing (which always happens). — Check out Sarah Henning’s Eat Your Vegetables blog at Lawrence.com.

MIKE DAVIS, SOUS CHEF AT THE OREAD HOTEL, DEMONSTRATES how to carve fruit March 7 at the hotel. Davis usually carves flowers into honeydew, cantaloupe and watermelon, but he can create different designs on most fruits or vegetables. BELOW: Davis shows off a carved watermelon.

Sous chef shows how to turn food into art By Meagan Thomas mthomas@ljworld.com

Michael Davis, sous chef at the Oread hotel, doesn’t just make meals with food — he makes art. Davis, who has been carving fruit for five and a half years, gave a demonstration to culinary arts students and anyone else interested in learning how to carve melons March 7 at the Oread. “It’s a pretty small community, especially in the Midwest,� Davis said. “To my knowledge, I’m the only (fruit-carver) in Lawrence, but there might be more.� Davis usually carves flowers into honeydew, cantaloupe and watermelon, but he can create different designs on most fruits or vegetables. He’s made everything from frogs in cucumbers to names and school emblems. He said

“

our customer to make

The good thing is unlike art that’s on paper, their dining experience more exciting or memoif you mess up, you can eat it.� — Michael Davis, sous chef at the Oread hotel letters and words are the most difficult because they are exact, and if he makes a mistake, he can’t exactly grab an eraser. “The good thing is unlike art that’s on paper, if you mess up, you can eat it,� Davis said. Davis first began carving produce while working at Kansas University. He worked with a Burmese man who carved fruit, and it sparked his interest. Davis used YouTube instructional videos to teach himself. His first carving was a flower on a honeydew, and it took him about 45 minutes. Now, the same design takes him 10 minutes to carve.

Before working as a sous chef at the Oread, Davis was a line cook at the Eldridge Hotel, which is where he began making his art for work. He showed the chef he could do it, and Davis began making designs for buffets or special occasions. At the Oread, the number of carvings depends on how busy it is in the banquet department. Some weeks he has as little as one carving to make, while others he makes as many as 10. He said customers can put in a request if they’re interested, and the Oread will do its best to fulfill their needs. “I try to add value for

rable,â€? Davis said. Lawrence resident Ann Ozorkiewicz heard about the fruit-carving demonstration and wanted to see Davis in action. “I was just curious ... I’m always interested in learning something new,â€? she said. After watching him, Ozorkiewicz said she’s going to try to make some of the fruit pieces herself, just nothing as intricate as Davis’ designs. Davis said new carvers wanting to learn how to create their own edible art should utilize the Internet by looking up videos on YouTube to help them practice. He also recommends finding a mentor and asking questions. “I’d be willing to teach people wanting to know,â€? Davis said. “I’d love that.â€? <Ē›|ÚÚź Ä’šÄ‰ŸŽ |ĉŽ Ä’ĤŸğ|Ĺ’ŸŽ

back to those ways. A girl can dream. In the meantime, the rest of us will make refrigerator surprise. And we will LIKE IT. This one in particular I did quite like, so I thought I’d share it with you in hopes that there are some of you out there who won’t judge me too harshly for using a bag of frozen pre-cut peppers and a can of pineapple chunks instead of the fresh stuff. Just this once.

We’ll call this “Asian Pork Chops and Rice� because the recipe includes soy sauce. Otherwise, it’s just a casserole. But I like a good one-dish meal. The assembly was ridiculously fast and the result warm and comforting, and really, what more do you want on a chilly Monday night? Oh fine, you want rabbit ravioli. Well, go on then.

Dear Annie: Recently, I contracted a kidney infection that was painful and needed treatment. I didn’t know what I had and wasn’t familiar with the symptoms, so the only thing I said to my parents was that I didn’t feel well. After a few days, it got so bad that I had to go to the emergency room. I was given a prescription and healed, but the hospital bill was $600. When the bill came, my mother read me the riot act for costing her so much. She told me I should have said something earlier and saved them some money. That was true, and I apologized. But the impression I got is that my health is not worth that much money to her. I’ve never had a good relationship with my mother, but this stung. Why would she insinuate such a thing? What should I do? — Not as Pretty as a Penny Dear Penny: We don’t

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

think your mother meant to imply that your health is not worth $600. Have you ever seen a parent yell at a toddler for running into the street? It’s not out of anger. It’s because they were worried to death by what might have happened. We think this was your mother’s reaction. Your illness turned out to be curable, but it could have been something far worse. Becoming angry at the bill was emotionally safer than facing her fears of losing you altogether. Please forgive her outburst.

Science show examines ‘God particle’ Last week saw the announcement of a new pope and the discovery of what scientists call “the God particle.” These two events have nothing to do with each other, except that, together, they sound like plot developments in a pulpy Dan Brown conspiracy thriller. Just what is the God particle? Or Higgs boson? That’s the subject of tonight’s “Through the Wormhole With Morgan Freeman” (8 p.m., Science), the first episode of the fourth season. I’m certainly among those who need somebody to explain just what this all means. From what I’ve read, it seems that the discovery of this particle confirms a theory that has been around for nearly 50 years, and that the search for Higgs boson is the reason behind the billions of dollars spent by scientists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research over the past several decades. For particle physicists, this is like the moon landing. Apparently, this discovery helps explain some mysteries at the center of existence, such as how particles of any sort acquire mass. But, according to the teaser for tonight’s “Wormhole,” this momentous event may raise as many questions as it settles.

Tonight’s other highlights:

Finalists sing to survive on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox).

The Huntress returns, very unhappy, on “Arrow” (7 p.m., CW).

“KKK: Beneath the Hood” (7 p.m., Discovery) looks at the Ku Klux Klan in the 21st century.

A stressed-out would-be novelist-turned-house sitter (Jack Nicholson) becomes easy prey for evil spirits haunting a hotel in director Stanley Kubrick’s icy adaptation of Stephen King’s novel “The Shining” (7 p.m., BBC America).

Cassidy faces serious allegations on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” (8 p.m., NBC).

Gloria’s family arrives, secrets in tow, on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC).

The department reacts to a series of gang-related shootings on “Boston’s Finest” (8 p.m., TNT).

A couple seeks a green home in a small-town community on “Property Brothers” (8 p.m., HGTV).

Death crowns a prom queen on “CSI” (9 p.m., CBS).

Mills grills Bernie about the fire that killed his father on “Chicago Fire” (9 p.m., NBC). — Copyright 2013 United Feature Syndicate, distributed by Universal Uclick.

Dear Annie: I was married for 47 years to a man who did not want me making friends outside his family. Unfortunately, his family didn’t much care for me. I acquiesced to his wishes (pre-women’s rights). When he died, I tried volunteering in order to make friends, but I guess I am programmed to push people away. I correspond via email with a few folks, but no one wants to take the friendship further. I let my son have my house and moved back to my hometown into a retirement place that my son convinced me would be beneficial. But they sold him a bill of goods about the activities here. There are none. No one wants to be friends. They say good morning, but even my invites go unanswered. I would like to move, but I can’t afford it, and no one will help me pack up. People are full of suggestions — go to the mall,

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Wednesday, March 20: This year you experience a division between your home life and your personal life. One is not reflective of the other.

go to church. (I tried that, filled out a visitor card and never heard from them.) I’ll be 70 soon, and I feel life isn’t worth living if I have to be alone. — Florida Dear Florida: You sound terribly depressed, and this may be part of the reason you have trouble making friends. People are attracted to those who are upbeat and energetic, and those traits are difficult for you to display when you feel so low. Talk to your doctor about an antidepressant. Ask someone in charge whether you could help organize a group outing, perhaps to a movie or a play. Do some volunteer work where your help will be appreciated and you can spend time getting to know others and practicing your social skills. You’ve spent years being “programmed” to push people away. Attracting them won’t happen overnight. Consider yourself a work in progress.

You see the beauty in the day, despite everything you need to do. You might be tempted to verbally attack someone who tries to rain on your parade. Tonight: Hang out with some friends. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be difficult without intending to be that way. A haze surrounds you and several situations. Tonight: Be spontaneous.
