Jenkins’ presence intensifies redistricting intrigue

TOPEKA — Intrigue over redrawing congressional district boundaries increased Friday as U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, R-Topeka, was seen in the Statehouse looking over a possible plan.

Roberts said 470 older Kansas inmates currently require daily living assistance.

The main reasons for the trend, said Jamie Fellner, author of the Human Rights Watch report, are the long sentences, including life without parole, that have become more common in recent decades, boosting the percentage of inmates unlikely to leave prison before reaching old age, if

MANHATTAN — Residents and college faculty in northeast Kansas said Friday they were worried health and safety would be threatened if deadly pathogens escaped from a new federal research lab.

They expressed their concerns during a field hearing held by a National Research Council committee that will be reviewing a risk assessment for the National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility. The $650 million lab would do research on deadly plant and animal pathogens, including foot-and-mouth disease, and critics said during the twohour meeting that the risks outweighed the benefits of building it near Kansas State University.

“We don’t want to be guinea pigs,” said Sylvia Beeman of the anti-NBAF group Biosecurity for the Heartland.

The Department of Homeland Security hired a private firm last year to conduct a site-specific risk assessment of the planned lab, which would replace an aging facility at Plum Island, N.Y. This is the second risk assessment. One finished in 2010 raised questions that led to further review of the lab and the plans for security measures to protect livestock and humans if pathogens are released.

Greg Baecher, a professor of engineering at the University of Maryland serving on the NRC committee, said members expect to receive the final draft of the latest risk assessment in February, review it and release their conclusions this summer.

“This committee is still in the process of deliberation. We’re in the process of information gathering,” Baecher said. “We’re here to listen.”

Torry Dickinson, a university faculty member, said the process of preparing for NBAF hasn’t been open and Kansas State employees have been afraid to speak out about their

As inmates age, medical costs soar

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

Prison inmates across the country are getting older, and more expensive, for states and the federal government, according to a report released Friday by Human Rights Watch.

And Kansas is no exception.

KBA paying ex-CEO Thornton’s legal fees TOPEKA (AP) — The Kansas Bioscience Authority has been paying the legal fees of former CEO Tom Thornton during an audit and an investigation into his tenure, invoices obtained Friday by The Associated Press show.

The invoices show the KBA has spent more than $51,000 in public funds for Jim Eisenbrandt and a fellow law partner Thornton to represent Thornton. The fees began in April 2011, shortly after Thornton resigned and a forensic audit was started.

The bylaws of the KBA, which distributes millions in state tax dollars to emerging bioscience companies, provide for the agency to pay legal fees for its top executives in matters related to their tenure. The KBA has also paid more than $9,500 for attorneys representing Jan Katterhenry, the KBA’s former chief financial officer.

Auditors from BKD Foren-

sics and Valuation Services found instances of document destruction, misuse of funds and questionable management by Thornton. Thornton has not returned repeated messages seeking comment.

The audit, released Monday, cost the authority $960,000 and resulted in the return of about $4,700 in KBA funds that Thornton received for an airline ticket to Ohio, purchase of an oil painting and overpayment for a car allowance.

Gov. Sam Brownback, whose administration is withholding $22 million in state funds appropriated to the authority, has said the audit’s findings are troubling. It’s unclear when the money will be cut loose, and the governor has suggested a moratorium on all new KBA spending until legislators decide what steps should be taken based on the audit’s findings.

Meanwhile, the Johnson County district attorney is conducting a separate investigation into whether documents from Thornton’s computer were destroyed.

Lou Frydman, a survivor of the Holocaust who worked as a Kansas University social welfare professor and an advocate for change in the mental health system, died Tuesday. He was 81.

Frydman and his brother Abram, older than Lou by one-and-a-half years, were the only survivors of the Holocaust among his relatives from his native Poland, who numbered about 40, said his wife, Jane Frydman.

Americans liberated him at a sub-camp of the Dachau concentration camp. He was just under 15 years old.

Caryn Mirriam-Goldberg, Kansas’ poet laureate, has written a book, soon to be published, on Frydman’s experiences in the Holocaust called “Needle in the Bone.”

The title is taken, she said, from a time when he had to spring out of bed and stand still, but stepped on a needle.

He had to remain still or risk the ire of the guards.

He couldn’t go to the hospital, either, because people were routinely killed there.

Later in his life, an X-ray showed that the needle had fused into one of the bones of his foot.

“He really helped me understand a trauma of that magnitude and how you carry it,” Mirriam-Goldberg said. “You can use what you’ve learned to make a life

Sitting in her home on Friday, Jane Frydman said her husband was also an advocate for change in the mental health system. He helped change laws and programs that used seclusion of patients as a treatment. Under the treatment, patients were separated from their families except for a half-hour per week.

Some patients continued to keep in touch later in life, too. A person who as a teenager was put into seclusion dropped off a plant to the house after hearing that Lou was sick.

“He never turned it down,” Jane Frydman said.

Two of his three sons, Rick and John, are Lawrence attorneys. A third son, Dan, lives in St. Joseph. He was most proud of his children and grandchildren, who meant the world to him, MirriamGoldberg said.

A celebration of his life is planned for later this spring.

The family encouraged people wishing to make a contribution in Lou Frydman’s memory to make a donation to the charity of their choosing.

pose this proposal.

Another is stretching the 1st all the way to Wyandotte County, a Democratic-leaning county now in the 3rd District with Johnson County.

Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka has said for months Republicans were hatching this plan.

Republican leaders have generally dismissed the allegation.

But on Friday House Speaker Mike O’Neal, RHutchinson, said, “There is nothing legally wrong with the map that Anthony Hensley has been railing against. Is it a pretty map? No. I would

like to see a prettier map than that.”

Hensley said Jenkins was “shopping” to legislators the map that would put Wyandotte County in the 1st. Under that proposal, all of Lawrence would be consolidated into the 3rd. Jenkins declined to say if she was supporting a specific plan.

The general direction of redistricting may emerge Monday when a Senate committee is scheduled to vote on a congressional map.

Stephen Higgs, research director at the BRI, said depending on the pathogen and experience of the researcher, training can take several weeks or several months before access is granted.

Landon Fulmer, policy director for Gov. Sam Brownback, told the four committee

members taking comments, that NBAF was a case of where “politics meets science.”

He described the concerns raised by some in Congress about the safety of conducting research on footand-mouth disease or other deadly pathogens as “scare tactics” by those who don’t want the lab built in Kansas.

“If we don’t build NBAF, we put ourselves, our country and our livestock industry at much greater risk than if do build NBAF,” Fulmer said.

Fraternity pledge lawsuit moving to Lawrence

BRIEFLY Report: Nation’s cattle herd continues decline WICHITA — The nation’s cattle herd has shrunk to its smallest size in 50 years amid a brutal drought in the Southwest that shriveled pastures and drove hay prices to record levels, a new report said Friday.

In a report that likely foreshadows higher beef prices for consumers at the meat counter, the National Agricultural Statistics Service counted 90.8 million head of cattle and calves in the United States as of Jan. 1. That’s 2 percent fewer than last year at this time.

It’s the lowest inventory since 1952, when the nation had 88.1 million head of cattle, the agency said.

Kevin Good, senior market analyst for CattleFax, said the government report shows a continuation of a long-term trend that has seen the nation’s ranchers liquidating cattle herds 14 out of the past 16 years.

“What has brought it to a head the last couple of years is drought,” Good said. “Drought sped that along with massive liquidations in the South — Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico his past year — big declines in beef cow numbers there.”

Retail prices at this time last year rose about 10 percent and will likely rise another 5 percent or more this year, he said.

“Now you have a situation where you have tighter supplies at the same time you are exporting more product overseas,” Good said. “So it even tightens the supply more for the next couple of years and it means higher prices as we move forward.”

Texas still leads the nation with 11.9 million head of cattle and calves, but its numbers fell by 11 percent.

The lawsuit filed after a Kansas University Phi Gamma Delta pledge was injured at a 2010 party will be moved to Douglas County District Court.

Mike Ketchmark, an attorney

representing Matt Fritzie, who was a freshman pledge from Stilwell when he was hurt at the party, said Friday that he intended to file suit here against the housing corporation that owns the fraternity house at 1540 La., its national organization and several others.

Fritzie’s attorneys filed a civil suit in December 2010 in Jackson County Circuit Court in Missouri. The Missouri court was chosen, the attorneys said, primarily because David R. Smith, a housing corporation member and trustee, had sent letters, emails and made phone

calls from his office in Kansas City, Mo., to parents of new pledges who had voiced concerns about past conduct at the fraternity. But Missouri Judge Brian Wimes last June rejected that argument and found his Please see LAWSUIT, page 4A

SATURDAY COLUMN

Separate boards would provide better university oversight

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Last week, this column focused on the inability of members of the Kansas Board of Regents to know what is going on at the campuses of the six universities they govern and the other 26 state higher education institutions they are responsible for coordinating.

Nine men and women, all volunteers and part-timers who serve at no pay, as dedicated as they may be, currently have no way to be as aware as they should of what is going on at these campuses.

Higher education takes a huge bite out of the state’s general fund, and taxpayers deserve the best possible management of these educational facilities.

With state legislators currently engaged in serious debate about taxes, which programs to fund and which to reduce or eliminate, it would seem timely and appropriate for lawmakers and the governor to take a serious look at how tax dollars are being spent at the schools under the supervision of the regents — and to be sure the universities’ chancellor and presidents are measuring up in every respect.

State legislators and the governor should give serious consideration to how to update the state’s higher education system to give taxpayers the best return on their dollars.

This matter of paying closer at-

tention to what is taking place at our universities and the cost of higher education now has attracted the attention of President Obama, who said in his State of the Union address earlier this week that more attention needs to be given to the cost of a college education and making sure higher education is available to more individuals.

Although it is a touchy subject, the fact is the six universities in the Board of Regents system have different missions and different capabilities. However, as the system works today, these six schools are handled as a single package, along with the KU School of Medicine and the Kansas State University School of Veterinary Medicine.

How about changing this traditional method of overseeing and supervising Kansas’ system of higher education?

Consider the possibility of a board of regents for KU and KSU and another board for the other four universities in Wichita, Hays, Emporia and Pittsburg. A board focusing on KU and KSU alone could do a much better job of knowing what is going on and have far better firsthand knowledge of the strengths, weaknesses and needs of the institutions.

Each of the state universities do a good job in their respective areas.

Fort Hays, for example, under the leadership and vision of President

Ed Hammond, has been an innovative leader — actually the state’s leader — in many areas such as distance learning. Fort Hays has a highly praised mathematics program for superior high school students and is able to hold down tuition costs and continue to enjoy increased enrollment numbers. How much do the regents know about or appreciate what Hammond and his associates have been able to develop at Fort Hays?

COMMENTARY All the schools need attention and help, as well as corrective actions by the regents, but with 32 institutions to oversee, this is almost an impossibility.

Instead of merely saying this is just the challenge they face and that we’ll have to accept it, why not think about ways to change and provide the state, students, faculty and taxpayers a better, more up-todate system of governance and supervision?

As noted above, it is a touchy subject, but KU and KSU have a different mission and role to play.

This does not lessen the importance and role of the other schools.

On the contrary, a revision or major change in the regents system would

tional system of filling vacancies?

Shouldn’t this be improved?

The governor and legislators need to get serious about the question of how well the state universities are being run, their record of success relative to peer institutions and whether state taxpayers are getting the maximum benefit from their dollars.

There’s no reason Kansas cannot have one of the nation’s finest systems of state-aided higher education, but it will require an enlightened and committed Board of Regents and increased fiscal support — state, as well as federal. One of the best ways to encourage greater overall fiscal support is to have visionary leaders who can inspire and focus on upgrading the excellence of both students and faculty. State legislators, federal grant makers, parents of students and interested and generous alumni are far more likely to favor those schools that demonstrate excellence rather than accepting mediocrity.

A knowledgeable and properly motivated Board of Regents is essential if the state’s system of higher education is to accomplish more than just keeping pace with other schools. It can, and should, be a leader.

As one of Kansas City’s truly outstanding leaders once said, “KU should be the lighthouse of the great Midwest prairie states.”

benefit each and every school. Having one board of regents for KU and KSU and another for the other schools would immediately guarantee more attention to each institution. Everyone is a winner.

As has been suggested in previous Saturday Columns, another method of improving the ability of regents to be better informed and more knowledgeable about what is happening on the campuses would be to form small groups of individuals for each school to serve as eyes and ears for the regents. Recent events offer ample evidence of cover-ups by senior university people or the unwillingness of regents to address serious matters.

At least this is the case at KU. Regents can’t be held accountable for being “out of the loop” if they don’t know what’s going on.

A small group of advisers for each school could be a great help and take away this convenient excuse.

It is hoped the governor and state legislators will give serious consideration to how to make sure our state system of higher education is working as efficiently as possible — not only working efficiently but also working to raise the excellence of each institution. Is there proper leadership at each university? How are vacancies filled and what’s the best way to eliminate mediocrity?

Are the leaders held accountable, and are they allowed to stay in office too long? How about the tradi-

court did not have jurisdiction because the chapter is in Kansas.

The Missouri lawsuit continued for about more six months with Smith as the only defendant, because his attorneys had not raised the jurisdictional issue. According to court records, the Missouri suit was completely dismissed last week.

In the Missouri lawsuit, Fritzie’s attorneys claimed he was ordered to dive into a makeshift pool on Sept. 17, 2010, at the “Fiji Island” party. Fiji is a nickname for the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity.

The suit said Fritzie was permanently paralyzed from his injuries.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY He was taken that night to KU Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., and later transferred to Craig Hospital in Denver for treatment and rehabilitation. The national fraternity was named as a defendant because the suit claimed at least one member of its national headquarters and members of the chapter house association visited the house during a three-week period before the party when the pledges were forced to construct the makeshift pool.

KU placed the fraternity on a two-year probationary period after finding the chapter violated KU’s Code of Student Rights of Responsibilities for hazing. The probation includes alcohol-free housing through this school year.

But KU officials said they were not able to substantiate the hazing at the party resulted in physical injuries.

comes with no formal duties and represents only an endorsement.

Hensley and Davis have been persistent critics of Kobach, both over changes in state elections laws that the Republican has pursued and over his work on immigration issues, which has brought him national attention.

Now they are expressing questions about his involvement in the campaign for Gilstrap, of Kansas City, who’s trying to win back his Senate seat this year. Earlier this week, in a debate over elections policy, Kobach criticized Sen. Kelly Kultala, a Kansas City Democrat who unseated Gilstrap in 2008.

Davis said past secretaries of state have avoided partisan politics.

“He is, I think, more interested in getting into partisan politics,” Davis said during a Statehouse news conference.

“I think this really compromises the integrity of the office.”

Kansas, like 38 other states, chooses its top elections official in partisan races.

But Davis and Hensley cited an ethics statement in the constitution of the National Association of Secretaries of State, which says members face a “high ethical mandate” and must commit themselves to put loyalty to state and federal constitutions “above private and political gain” and administer elections in a fair and unbiased manner.

“How in the world can you possibly practice fair and

“

How in the world can you possibly practice fair and unbiased election administration when in fact you’re inserting yourself in a leadership role in a very partisan manner?”

— Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, of Topeka unbiased election administration when in fact you’re inserting yourself in a leadership role in a very partisan manner?” Hensley said.

Kobach told The Associated Press that the ethics statement doesn’t specifically prohibit secretaries of state from endorsing candidates, because the practice is common. For example, then-Secretary of State Ron Thornburgh, a fourterm Republican, publicly endorsed fellow Republican Sam Brownback for governor in 2009, then backed one of Kobach’s opponents in the GOP primary for secretary of state early in 2010.

Kobach said Hensley and Davis hadn’t researched the issue and, “They may be a little trigger-happy.”

Also, he noted, the race in Kultala’s district has special significance for Democratic leaders. Kobach lives in the district.

Gilstrap held the seat for 12 years as a conservative, anti-abortion Democrat, sometimes voting with Republicans and against Democratic leaders. In 2006, Gilstrap endorsed incumbent GOP Attorney General Phill Kline’s unsuccessful bid for

a second term, and two years later, Hensley and then-Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius openly backed Kultala’s effort to unseat Gilstrap in the primary. Gilstrap later switched parties.

Kobach said the Democratic leaders were far less vocal about his endorsement of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney earlier this month.

“It appears to be more important to them whom I endorse rather than whether I endorse,” Kobach said.

Hensley mentioned the Romney endorsement in Friday’s news conference, suggesting it and Kobach’s work on immigration issues show he’s not spending enough time on the secretary of state’s duties.

“Obviously, he is exercising both private and political gain,” Hensley said.

Kobach pushed successfully last year for a new state law that now requires voters to show photo identification at the polls and, as of Jan. 1, 2013, will require people who register to vote for the first time in Kansas to provide proof of their U.S. citizenship. A former law professor, he’s known for advising officials in other state about cracking down on illegal immigration and helped write tough laws in Arizona and Alabama.

Kobach said his immigration work and political activities occur outside normal office hours.

“They continue to raise that complaint without any grounds,” he said. “The Internet makes it easy to be involved in a national issue without ever leaving the state.”

Take care of animals in the cold: Despite a furry coat, domesticated animals are no longer suited to withstand prolonged exposure to cold weather. As a general guideline, please remember that if the air temperature is below freezing, pets should be brought indoors. If a heated home area is not available, at the very least access to a warm garage or shed with dry bedding and out of the wind is a must.

WATER IS ESSENTIAL! Never rely on snow or ice for your animal’s drinking needs; they are not adequate. Cold weather creates very dry air, so please provide fresh water as you would during the summer.

A heated bowl may be needed. And don’t forget about your animals’ feet. Check them for salt residue, cuts and snow packed between toes. It’s best to buy deicers labeled safe for pets.

Many of the projects had initially been scheduled to start in 2013 or later, Rankin said.

There are seven projects in northeast Kansas worth $15.1 million but none in Douglas County. The most expensive one in northeast Kansas is a $2.4 million bridge repair in Topeka of the Oakland Expressway.

Funds for the program are part of the state’s $8 billion, 10-year transportation plan.

Man receives prison time for threat

Saturation patrol out tonight

A Douglas County judge Friday ordered a 38-year-old Overland Park man to serve an 18-month prison sentence for threatening a woman with a handgun during a domestic incident last July in the 700 block of Connecticut Street.

Justin M. Largent, who had pleaded guilty in December to one count of aggravated battery, committed the crime while on probation for a Butler County case.

“Mr. Largent treated the victim like less than a human,” said prosecutor Mark SimpCOURTS son, an assistant Douglas County district attorney.

The woman told District Judge Peggy Kittel she believed any time Largent spent in prison would keep him from harming anyone else.

“I’ve been deeply, deeply hurt by the events that happened in July,” she said.

Largent declined to speak during the hearing. His prison sentence was part of a plea agreement in which he waived his right to appeal the sentence, and state prosecutors agreed not to forward the case to federal prosecutors.

Kittel also ordered Largent to pay $962 restitution to the Douglas County Sheriff’s office, the cost of transporting him here from Alabama after his warrant arrest. He also likely will serve an additional eight-month sentence for the Butler County case.

The Kansas Highway Patrol will conduct a saturation patrol in Lawrence and Douglas County tonight as troopers will be on the lookout for impaired drivers.

Lt. Keith Hudson said troopers will also focus on aggressive drivers and other traffic offenses during the patrol in the area from 5 p.m. today to the early-morning hours Sunday.

Grant funds from the Kansas Department of Transportation will fund the patrol. The highway patrol performed a similar operation in Douglas County in December.

ON THE RECORD REPORT

• A 32-year-old Lawrence man was sentenced Friday to serve one year on probation for threatening another man in August in downtown Lawrence.

He was originally charged with of aggravated assault, making a criminal threat and two counts of disorderly conduct for using a handgun to threaten a 30-yearold Los Angeles man who was walking at 1 a.m. Aug. 11 in the 900 block of Massachusetts Street.

Man convicted in accident that killed girl WICHITA — A Wichita man has been found guilty for his role in a traffic accident that killed a 5-year-old girl.

The Wichita Eagle reports that a jury on Friday convicted 29-year-old Ronald Bevan of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Amber Randolph. Bevan was also found guilty of aggravated battery and involuntary manslaughter while driving under the influence.

Police said Bevan was drunk and racing a friend last February. Bevan cut off his friend’s vehicle, which caused it to slide over the median and into the car driven by the child’s mother, Michelle Randolph.

The driver of the other car, Matthew Noel, is expected to face trial next month. The jury in his first trial was unable to reach a verdict.

Joshua Jeffcoat initially faced charges of aggravated battery and theft because he was also accused of stealing a vehicle from a convenience store and driving to Ottawa after injuring the man early that morning.

Jeffcoat’s attorney, John Kerns, said Friday that as part of the plea agreement his client faces six months on probation in the case and six more month on probation for a no-contest plea in a separate 2011 domestic battery plea. Prosecutors are also asking Jeffcoat be sentenced to serve five days in jail, but he’s already served 16 days as of Friday. His sentencing is Thursday.

Security Council talks Syrian crisis

By Anita Snow Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS — The Security Council began closeddoor negotiations Friday on a new Arab-European draft resolution aimed at resolving the crisis in Syria, but Russia’s envoy said he could not back the current language as it stands.

Ambassador Vitaly Churkin told reporters afterward that the text introduced by new Arab Security Council member Morocco has “red lines” for Moscow, but he’s willing to “engage” with the resolution’s sponsors.

Churkin said those lines include any indication of sanctions, including an arms embargo. “We need to concentrate on establishing political dialogue,” he said.

British Ambassador Mark Lyall Grant later insisted that the text based on the Arab League’s recent recommendations for Syria contains no mention of an arms embargo

or any other sanctions, and that it received broad support from other council members.

“A lot of straw men are being put up,” he said.

“We want, as do the Arabs, an unanimous resolution,” Lyall Grant said. “Frankly, the time has come where we should be supporting the Arab League efforts.”

The U.N. says at least 5,400 people have been killed in a monthslong Syrian government crackdown on civilian protests.

European diplomats have been meeting this week with diplomats from Arab countries, including Morocco and Qatar, on a resolution that would strongly back an Arab League bid to end the crisis.

French Ambassador Gerard Araud told reporters he expected that a “very determined negotiation process” on the text would start at the ambassador level on Wednesday, one day after the Arab League secretary-general and Qatar’s prime minister brief the coun-

cil on the situation in Syria.

“There is now a chance that the Security Council will finally take a clear stand on Syria.

That is long overdue,” German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said Friday at the General Affairs Council in Brussels. The comments were provided by the German mission to journalists at the U.N. “We hope now that council members will seize this new window of opportunity and find common ground,” German Ambassador Peter Wittig said before the council met behind closed doors.

Permanent council members Russia and China used their veto powers last fall to block an earlier European resolution on Syria. On Friday, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov was quoted by the ITAR-Tass news agency as saying Moscow will oppose the new draft U.N. resolution on Syria because it fails to take Kremlin’s concerns into account.

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

Notable When Facebook makes its long-expected debut as a public company this spring, the social-networking company will likely vault into the ranks of the largest public companies in the world, alongside McDonald’s, Amazon.com and Bank of America.

The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that Facebook is preparing to file initial paperwork for an offering that could raise as much as $10 billion and value the company at $75 billion to $100 billion. The filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission could come as early as Wednesday, with an initial public offering of stock in three or four months.

American economy not healthy yet, but healing

By Martin Crutsinger Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The American economy may not be truly healthy yet, but it’s healing.

The 2.8 percent annual growth rate reported Friday for the fourth quarter was the fastest since spring 2010 and was the third straight quarter that growth has accelerated.

Experts cautioned, however, that the pace was unlikely to last and that it’s not enough to sharply drive down the unemployment rate.

Unemployment stands at 8.5 percent — its lowest level in nearly three years after a sixth straight month of solid hiring. And Friday’s Commerce Department report suggests more hiring gains ahead.

For the final three months of 2011, Americans spent more on vehicles, and companies restocked their supplies at a robust pace.

Still, overall growth last quarter — and for all of last year — was slowed by the sharpest cuts in annual government spending in four decades. And many people are reluctant to spend more or buy homes, and many employers remain hesitant to hire, even though job growth has strengthened.

The outlook for 2012 is slightly better. The Federal Reserve has estimated economic growth of roughly 2.5 percent for the year, despite abundant risk factors: federal spending cuts, weak pay in-

creases, cautious consumers and the risk of a European recession.

Economists noted that most of the growth in the October-December quarter was due to companies restocking their supplies at the fastest rate in nearly two years. That pace is expected to slow.

“The pickup in growth doesn’t look half as good when you realize that most of it was due to inventory accumulation,” said Paul Ashworth, an economist at Capital Economics.

Ashworth expects annualized growth to slip below 2 percent in the current JanuaryMarch quarter. Other economists have similar estimates.

Stocks opened lower after the government reported the growth figures. The Dow Jones industrial average closed down about 74 points.

Broader indexes were mixed.

In a normal economy, roughly 3 percent growth is a healthy figure. It’s enough to keep unemployment down — but not so much growth as to ignite inflation.

But coming out of a recession, much stronger growth is needed. By some estimates, the economy would have to expand at least 5 percent for a full year to drive down the unemployment rate by 1 percentage point.

In many ways, the economy did end 2011 on a strong note. Companies invested more in equipment and machinery in December.

points for 2 percent of households — 10 years of which wouldn’t cover the cost of Obama’s 2009 stimulus alone.

Which is why Obama introduced a shiny new twist — the Buffett Rule, a minimum 30 percent rate for millionaires. Sounds novel. But it’s a tired replay of the alternative minimum tax, originally created in 1969 to bring to heel all of 155 underpaying fat cats. Following the fate of other such do-goodism, the AMT then metastasized into a $40 billion monster that today entraps millions of middle-class taxpayers.

There isn’t even a pretense that the

Buffett Rule will do anything for economic growth or job creation (other than provide lucrative work for the sharp tax lawyers who will be gaming the new system for the very same rich). Which should not surprise.

Back in 2008, Obama was asked if he would still support raising the capital-gains tax rate (the intended effect of the Buffett Rule) if this would decrease government revenues.

Obama said yes. In the name of fairness.

This is redistribution for its own sake — the cost be damned. It took Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels about 30 seconds of his State of the Union rebuttal to demolish that idea. To get the rich to contribute more, explained Daniels, you don’t raise tax rates. This ultimately retards economic growth for all. You (a) eliminate loopholes from which the rich benefit disproportionately (tax reform) and (b) means-test entitlements so that the benefits go to those most in need.

Tax reform and entitlement reform are the really big ideas. The first produces social equity plus economic efficiency; the second produces social equity plus debt reduction. And yet these are precisely what Obama has for three years steadfastly refused to address. He prefers the easy demagoguery of “tax the rich.”

After all, what’s he got? Can’t run on his record. Barely even mentioned Obamacare or the stimulus, his major

To the editor: Last weekend, I heard our legislators talk about the governor’s plans for tax policy and school finance. If you own property or pay property tax as part of your rent, and you do, this is big news.

Kansas already has the ninthhighest property tax in the nation. Under Gov. Brownback’s plan, the only way to counter years of cuts in state aid for schools will be to increase local property tax.

As for income tax, if you earn less than $25,000 a year, your tax liability will increase by over 5,000 percent! That should leave over half a million households hopping mad! In addition, he wants to make permanent the temporary sales tax increase, which affects the poor

disproportionately.

People earning over $250,000 a year need not be concerned; they will do just fine with a $5,300 tax decrease. Small-business owners also will benefit, and that is a good idea. However, “small businesses,” due to kinks in the law, include such mom-and-pop operations as Koch Industries, a major supporter of Brownback.

Sens. Francisco and Holland and Reps. Davis and Ballard will be working to soften this harsh plan for shifting even more of the financial burden from the wealthy to the less well-off. Even conservative Republicans in the Legislature are expressing concern. We need to let them know we care.

legislative achievements, on Tuesday night. Too unpopular. His platform is fairness, wrapped around a plethora of little things, one mini-industrial policy after another — the conceit nicely encapsulated by his proclamation that “I will not cede the wind or solar or battery industry to China or to Germany.”

As if he can command these industries into existence. As if Washington funding a thousand Solyndras will make solar economically viable.

Soviet central planners mandated quotas for steel production, regardless of demand. Obama’s industrial policy is a bit more subtle. Tax breaks for manufacturing — but double tax breaks for high-tech manufacturing, which for some reason is considered more virtuous, despite the fact that high tech is less likely to create blue-collar jobs. Its main job creation will be for legions of lawyers and linguists testifying before some new adjudicating bureaucracy that the Acme Umbrella Factory meets their criteria for “high tech.”

What Obama offered the nation Tuesday night was a pudding without a theme: a jumble of disconnected initiatives, a gaggle of intrusive new agencies and a whole new generation of loopholes to further corrupt a tax code that screams out for reform.

If the Republicans can’t beat that in November, they should try another line of work.

It’s hard to read Thomas Frank’s new book, “Pity the Billionaire,” without being astonished at what utter nincompoops Democrats are.

This surely was not Frank’s primary intent. The book is subtitled, “The Hard-Times Swindle and the Unlikely Comeback of the Right,” so it’s pretty clear where Frank is coming from. But the obvious subtext is how, in a twoparty system, Democrats allowed Republicans to pull off the greatest crossdressing scam since RuPaul became America’s Drag Queen.

Frank is a journalist and polemicist best known for his 2004 book “What’s the Matter with Kansas?” that explored how Republicans in his home state had used social issues to persuade people to vote against their own economic best interests.

In “Pity the Billionaire,” he examines how Republicans — with help from some Democrats — created policies that led to the financial collapse of 2008, the Great Recession, massive income inequality and the gutting of the middle class. And then the Democrats sat back as the GOP reinvented itself as populist defenders of free-market capitalism.

“Now there is nothing really novel about the idea that free markets are the very essence of freedom,” Frank writes. “What is new is the glorifica-

The tea party, Frank says, became defenders of a Darwinian version of free markets intended to ‘trample the weak.’”

tion of this idea at the precise moment when free-market theory has proven itself to be a philosophy of ruination and fraud. The revival of the Right is as extraordinary as it would be if the public had demanded dozens of new nuclear power plants in the days after the Three Mile Island disaster; if we had reacted to Watergate by making Richard Nixon a national hero.”

For Frank, a key moment in this bizarre turn of events came on Feb. 19, 2009, less than a month after President Barack Obama’s inauguration.

The TARP bailout bill proposed by President George W. Bush and endorsed by candidate Obama had been passed the previous fall. The new president had just signed the $787 billion economic stimulus bill.

On that day, CNBC business reporter Rick Santelli stood on the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade and began ranting about the unfairness of it all. Not the bank bailout, mind you, but the 6.3 percent of the TARP program intended to help people modify their underwater mortgages.

As it turned out, this program hasn’t been particularly successful because

O Sympathy and understanding for all who are disadvantaged or oppressed.

O Exposure of any dishonesty in public affairs.

As to (a), Frank quotes from one of the tea party’s favorite movies, “Network,” where the mad-as-hell-notgoing-to-take-it-any-more newscaster Howard Beale explains, “We deal in illusions, man. None of it is true.

But you people sit there day after day ... we’re all you know.”

As to (b), the question of where the Democratic response was, that’s still a mystery. Aside from perhaps Elizabeth Warren, architect of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and now a U.S. Senate candidate in Massachusetts, no Democrat has been particularly successful in articulating where the blame belongs.

Until recently, President Obama floated above it all, finding common cause with Wall Street and health insurance firms, trying to compromise with people who were elected not to compromise, playing his preferred “long game,” avoiding intemperate language.

This allowed the GOP to retake control of the House and pass themselves off as defenders of the average guy. And anyone who has the temerity to point out how stupid you’d be to fall for that is labeled an “elitist.”

Republicans understand that. Democrats aren’t very good at it. If they hope to avoid catastrophe in November, they’d better figure it out.

banks refused to go along. But on that Feb. 19, Santelli was incensed at the unfairness of it all — that “losers” with bad mortgages might be helped and that the salt-of-the-earth traders who were cheering him on were being punished for being successful and prudent.

Santelli’s rant went viral on the Internet. So-called tea party rallies began to be held. Self-promoters seized them as a way to cash in — a fine conservative tradition, Frank writes — and the right-wing foundations funneled money to them. What could have been, and should have been, populist outrage against the people whose greed brought the house down was subtly turned into protests against “elitists” (i.e., Democrats) who were attacking “free markets” (i.e., cracking down on banks and health care costs).

The tea party, Frank says, became defenders of a Darwinian version of free markets intended to “trample the weak.”

Frank spends a great deal of attention on the various absurdities peddled at the time by Glenn Beck on Fox News — “bogus populism shores up ironclad elitism and ... bogus enlightenment serves the most grotesque form of dupery.”

But Beck and his ilk could not have gotten away with it had (a) people been more discerning about what they were hearing and (b) had Democrats mounted some kind of response.

FIREBIRD WINTER CLASSIC

Semi … sweet!

Kirkpatrick hits winner; FSHS makes title game

——

Jayhawks hope to add to record or road success

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kennedy Kirkpatrick had been in this situation before.

At practices, Free State High girls basketball coach Bryan Duncan commonly gives the Firebirds late-game scenarios. Something like: The clock is winding down, FSHS needs a basket, go get it.

So when that situation presented itself Friday night against Washburn Rural in the Firebird Winter Classic semifinals, Kirkpatrick knew what Duncan wanted, no timeout necessary.

With the game tied, Free State’s 5-foot-10 go-to guard dribbled calmly at the top of the key, waited for the clock to go under 10 seconds, crossed over Blues junior guard Erica Lane, drove left and scored a layup with four seconds left to give FSHS a 38-36 victory.

“I thought it worked pretty well,” Kirkpatrick said of the well-rehearsed play.

Duncan praised Kirkpatrick, who finished with 16 points after scoring the decisive bucket, saying he trusted her as a “great player” to go one-on-one.

“We said, ‘Hey, go make the play,’” Duncan related.

It was one of many plays John Young/Journal-World Photo for Kirkpatrick in the final eight minutes.

LAWRENCE HIGH JUNIOR MONICA HOWARD, LEFT, and Blue Valley West’s Hope Witiszak fight for possession. LHS fell, 53-50 in overtime, Friday in the consolation semifinals of the Firebird Winter Classic.

Kansas aware of ISU ‘magic’

There have to be more enjoyable ways to learn a lesson.

Lawrence High’s girls basketball team found out the hard way Friday night at the Firebird Winter Classic that double-digit fourth-quarter leads aren’t invincible. Blue Valley West illustrated that fact with a 53-50 overtime victory in the consolation semifinals.

The Lions were in great

position to beat the Jaguars, with a 13-point lead midway through the fourth quarter. But turnovers and missed shots caught up with LHS in the final minutes of regulation, and that trend continued in the extra four-minute period.

Blue Valley West (2-10) did just enough in overtime to complete the comeback, getting a three-point play inside from junior forward Mariah Coleman and four more points from senior guard Erika Lake, who finished with a game-high 24.

In the meantime, Lawrence (4-7) went 2-for-8 at the foul line and 1-for-7 from the floor and turned the ball over four times in OT. LHS coach Nick Wood said overtime, when sophomore Kionna Coleman scored a basket and the Lions received one free throw apiece from juniors Monica Howard and Krista Costa, was a case of missed opportunities.

“We got shots right at the basket,” Wood said, “but they

“We love winning at home, but certainly you can’t win conference championships unless you win away from home,” said Self.

His No. 5-ranked Jayhawks (17-3) take a 7-0 league mark (3-0 on road) into today’s clash against the Cyclones (14-6), who are 2-1 in Hilton Coliseum, 2-2 on the road in league games.

“We’ve done pretty well with that. Hopefully we can keep it up,” Self added.

KU, which has won sevenstraight Big 12 regular-season titles, currently holds a two-game lead over Baylor and Missouri in this still-young conference season.

QB Berglund’s saga ends with release

BAYLOR CENTER BRITTNEY GRINER — SHOWN IN THIS FILE PHOTO from Jan. 11 in Waco, Texas — carries gaudy averages of 22.5 points, 10.1 rebounds and 5.4 blocks per game into tonight’s meeting with Kansas University.

Although it never actually began, Brock Berglund’s Kansas University football career officially is over.

Berglund, the former threestar quarterback from Highlands Ranch, Colo., who missed all of the 2011 season to deal with legal trouble in Colorado, was released from his scholarship by KU on Friday and is free to continue his playing career at another university.

“This wasn’t about whether or not (we) were going to give a kid permission to contact other schools,” KU coach Charlie Weis said via teleconference Friday evening. “It’s about doing it the way everyone else

does it. I just think that everyone should follow the same protocol. One guy shouldn’t be able to send emails and try to make phone calls, when everyone else did it (differently). (Other players) came into my office, they said they’d like to go, I asked them why, we went over a list of schools that they could go to, and I let ’em go. But this young man decided that that wasn’t the way the game was gonna be played.”

Because of that, the process to gain his release — like most things associated with Berglund’s case during the past year — became drawn out and unfolded in a very public manner.

Selig: Expanded playoffs likely in ’12 NEW YORK (AP) — Commissioner Bud Selig expects baseball to expand its playoffs this season.

Players and owners have already agreed to add an additional wild-card team in each league, but are still deciding whether it would take effect this year or in 2013. Selig said there are scheduling issues to be worked out — once they are, the new 10-team format would begin with a onegame playoff.

“I really believe we’ll have the wild card for 2012, this year,” Selig said Friday night in Chicago at a White Sox fan festival. “Clubs really want it. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an issue that the clubs want more than to have the extra wild card this year.”

“We’re working on dates right now. That’ll all take place. It looks

to me like we’ll have it because I’ve told everybody we have to have it. It’ll be exciting. One-game playoff, it will start the playoffs in a very exciting manner,” he said.

A little more than two months before opening day, Major League Baseball hoped to put an end to uncertainty.

Add a bat or an arm to compete for that extra wild card? No telling whether that makes any sense.

“That’s the last thing on my mind,” Cleveland Indians manager Manny Acta said this week.

“I’m trying to win my division and I can’t be concerned about that stuff. But the more the merrier.

“It gives us and everybody else a better chance to make the playoffs. But it’s not on my mind because you don’t build a system or build a team counting on the com-

missioner is going to change the playoff format,” he said.

MLB and the players’ association have reached a consensus that ties for division titles will be broken on the field under the new playoff format, a person familiar with the talks told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because a deal hadn’t been finalized.

Since 1995, head-to-head record has been used to determine first place if both teams are going to the postseason. But with the start of a one-game, winner-take-all wild-card round, the sides agreed that the difference between first place and a wild-card berth is too important to decide with a formula and a tiebreaker game would be played.

Negotiators plan to talk again

By Monte Poole The Oakland Tribune

Saints and angels don’t wear tennis shoes or prepare game plans or throw punches or hit baseballs over a fence.

Angels and saints are not defined by wins or trophies or championships or even by the number of lives they might save.

So despite the stirring tributes in the wake of his death, including those expressed during his public memorial Thursday, Joe Paterno was neither saint nor angel.

He undoubtedly knew this better than anyone who might have perceived him as such, certainly the many members of the Penn State community that revered him, referring to him as “JoePa,” a fitting designation for Pennsylvania’s unofficial patriarch.

Paterno, who was 85 when he died Sunday, would have waved off the halo painted above his head, one day after his death, on the large mural in State College.

He would have wondered why the artist would do such a thing. He would have described himself as an old football coach who didn’t deserve it.

He would have been absolutely correct.

Don’t get me wrong. Paterno was, by most measures, a quality individual, a fine football coach and a devoted leader.

His many good deeds helped hundreds of young men, grappling with the responsibilities of adulthood, find and maintain some balance in the constant spin of life.

For all his great intentions, though, Paterno’s code of honor was profoundly flawed. For his many acts of kindness and brotherhood, he also had, like many other legends, wayward allegiances to which he was blindly faithful.

The Penn State program, in particular, as well as his close friends and associates.

And while this is, first and foremost, a reference to Paterno’s reaction to the richly chronicled child-molestation charges faced by Jerry Sandusky, one of his longtime assistant coaches, this also could apply to additional Penn State matters not yet exposed, to crimes and cover-ups and indiscretions that have not come to the surface.

If there was at least one, can we really assume there weren’t more?

As sure as we know Paterno was a Penn State lifer, winning a record 409 games, we also know there was an abject ignorance of moral obligation. He was a great coach who motivated and inspired many, yet the Sandusky matter reveals that JoePa choked in a moment that transcended football.

Informed in 2002 that he had a pedophile in his midst, Paterno was faced with a decision.

To do something is to choose honor and integrity over self-preservation or the protection of friends.

To do nothing is to betray the young men who, along with their parents, put themselves in Paterno’s custody.

Upon hearing about Sandusky’s behavior with a child during an on-campus shower, the coach sat on it, waiting until the next day to pass the information to his “superiors.”

“It was a Saturday morning,” Paterno, under oath, explained to the grand jury, “and I didn’t want to interfere with their weekends.”

The JoePa we thought we knew would have instantly placed fairness and justice above loyalty and suppression.

Given earlier indications of Sandusky’s nature, Paterno in 1999 ushered his defensive coordinator into early retirement.

Sandusky kept his office at Penn State and maintained access to the school’s facilities. Isn’t the idea of moving a problem, rather than confronting and perhaps solving it, rather cowardly?

FREE STATE HIGH

next week and decide by March 1 on whether the extra round will begin this year.

“I think most clubs at this point no matter who you are are focused on trying to win a division,” Detroit Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski said. “If that doesn’t work, then you make your adjustments.”

Under the new format, whenever it begins, the non-division winners in each league with the two-best records will be the wildcards, meaning a third-place team could for the first time win the World Series.

Being able to finish third and still go to the postseason could create more of an opportunity in the AL East for teams other than the rich New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox.

Goodell says recession has helped NFL NEW YORK — NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says the recession has helped build TV audiences for NFL games.

Speaking on CBS’ “60 Minutes,” to be aired Sunday, Goodell says the nearly 60 million people tuning in to watch last Sunday’s conference championships show that.

“People want to feel part of a group, feel like they’re connected, and right now during these difficult times, they can turn on free television and watch the greatest entertainment that’s out there,” Goodell says. “They can forget their worries.for just a few hours.”

Goodell Goodell also expresses his concern about getting fans to come to the stadium rather than watching at home.

“Our biggest challenge going forward is how do we get people to come to our stadiums, because the experience is so great at home,” he says. “When you turn on (a football game), you want to see a full stadium.”

1989 after an 82-75 home victory over No. 3-ranked Missouri.

“Kansas had some great teams with Larry (Brown).

Larry never won at Hilton (0-5). I’ve been part of teams that lost some heartbreakers there. When that place is jumping, it’s really a great place,” Self said.

The Jayhawks have won seven-straight games in Hilton, where they are 22-18 alltime.

Self’s first KU team fell at ISU, 68-61. Since then, the Jayhawks have won by five points twice and four points once (in overtime in 2007) to go with double-digit victories of 10, 11, 15 and 23 points.

The Cyclones are 10-2 in Hilton this season, with the only losses coming to Missouri and Northern Iowa.

In the league, ISU has home wins over Texas and OSU. “That place, with ‘Hilton Magic,’ it’s going to be a tough place to play,” KU fifth-year senior Conner Teahan said. “Every year that I’ve been there, it just seems like no matter how many fans are in the stands, it gets exciting. I think we’ve had a couple games where we pulled away, but just a couple buckets or one run can really put the fans back in the game.

You have to be able to limit that.”

KU defeated coach Fred Hoiberg’s first Cyclone team by just five points — 84-79 — a year ago in Ames.

Just two weeks ago, KU overcame a 12-point secondhalf deficit in a 82-73 victory over the Cyclones in Allen Fieldhouse.

Tyshawn Taylor scored 22 of his 28 points in the second half of a game KU was outrebounded, 49-41.

Royce White, ISU’s 6-foot-8, 270-pound junior forward, had 18 points and 17 rebounds.

“Trust me, Iowa State should have our full attention after the way they handled us for 25 minutes at our place,” Self said. “They kicked us on the glass pretty good. Royce had 17 (boards). He kind of

wore us out. We have to do a much better job defensively and play more aggressively.”

White, who averages 13.9 points and 9.6 rebounds a game, is an extremely difficult match-up for any team.

“I don’t know if the game plan will be a ton different.

He’s such a good passer. He’s hard to trap. The thing about it is, when a 5-man — well, he’s not your 5-man, he’s your 4-man that plays point — brings it up, it’s really hard to have a different strategy because you can’t leave shooters to go guard him if you’re a man-to-man team. We don’t play a lot of zone, and they’re a good-shooting team. So I’m not sure it’d be real smart for

us to do that. I would just like to see us play better. I thought he just whipped us physically, and I’d like to see us challenge him more, at least from a physicality standpoint,” Self said.

Taylor hit 10 of 21 shots (three of nine threes, five of nine free throws) with six assists, four steals and four turnovers in 37 minutes of the first meeting. He had 13 points in the first 10 minutes of the second half, helping KU turn a 52-40 deficit (with 17 minutes left) into a 70-61 lead (with eight minutes to play).

ISU, which led 43-40 at half, received 17 points from Chris Allen.

C — Brittney Griner, 6-8, jr. in field-goal percentage (63.2 percent). Davis usually shoots a high percentage because she’s able to get deep position and uses her long arms to make layups. That won’t work against Griner, and Davis spent some of the offseason fine-tuning her game specifically for her meetings with Griner. Asked if she was ready, Davis, who poured in 34 points in a victory against No. 21 Texas Tech on Wednesday night, did not hesitate to answer.

WOMEN

“I am,” she said. “She’s tough, very unique and very difficult to play against. But I have grown my game to where I’m more confident to play her.

I think we have a great game plan, and we’ll be fine.”

Asked about the specifics of their plan of attack, both Goodrich and KU coach Bonnie Henrickson stated things in a matter-of-fact manner.

“If we can draw (Griner) out (of the lane), we can get our other bigs in there, and they can do something,” Goodrich said.

Added Henrickson: “We are not going to reinvent the wheel for Baylor, but we have to get (Griner) away from the basket. We have played against her, where she will come out and swat a 15foot jump shot. What Griner does offensively is one thing, but how she impacts the game defensively is equally or more impressive.”

Tonight’s match-up is a battle of the top two teams in the current Big 12 standings.

The Bears lead the all-time series with the Jayhawks 15-7, including a 7-2 mark in Waco.

Kansas has lost five straight in the Ferrell Center. KU’s most recent victory at Baylor came in January 2000. KU’s most recent victory in the series was a 69-45 blowout in March 2009 in Lawrence.

Big track names back Lawrence pitch

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

The woman chosen by Sports Illustrated magazine as the greatest athlete of the 20th century spent Friday going to bat for the city of Lawrence and for track and field.

Former heptathlete and long-jumper Jackie JoynerKersee, winner of three Olympic gold medals, a silver and two bronze medals; Olympic sliver-medalist hurdler and three-time world champion Greg Foster; and former Olympic 4X400 runner Darnell Hall are part of a group that wants to see Lawrence become a hub city for track and field. They all were in town Friday meeting about multiple events.

The success of the Kansas Relays’ moving the shot-put downtown has inspired bigger ideas.

Bob Sanner, executive director for the Lawrence

Sports Corporation, spent part of his day discussing with city manager David Corliss his desire to bring as many as three AAU national sporting events to Lawrence, with athletes ages 5 to 18 competing.

Sanner also visited with Mayor Aron Cromwell to let him know of tentative plans to bring world-class athletes to Lawrence this summer to compete in downtown track and field events.

The AAU’s national athletics chairman Robin BrownBeamon of Miami was in town to evaluate Lawrence as a potential site for cross country championships, as soon as 2013, indoor track championships, as soon as 2013, and for the national Junior Olympics, as soon as 2017. Lawrence was the host city for the Junior Olympics in 1988.

“This was quite a surprise,” Brown-Beamon said hours

on the matter since announcing Berglund’s dismissal at a Jan. 16 news conference, said he regretted the ordeal could not be handled internally.

“You never want anything like this to be a public deal,” Weis said. “The young man, the past few weeks, decided to take it public, and we just didn’t want to go there. We didn’t want to get into a public show of who’s right and who’s wrong. This wasn’t about that. This was about what was in the best interest of Kansas football.”

Berglund officially was dismissed from the team on Jan. 16 for missing a mandatory team meeting a day earlier. Berglund said, and KU officials confirmed, that he emailed the coaching staff prior to the meeting to let the coaches know he would not be there, but that was not good enough for Weis, who has gone full-speed-ahead in emphasizing discipline in the KU program since taking over on Dec. 9.

“Everyone wants to go to a team where the team is more important than the players and the coaches,” Weis said. “That’s what this issue is really about. It’s all about the team being the most important thing. KU football is more important than the quarterback, the head coach, everybody else. It’s bigger than that.”

Berglund did not return messages requesting his reaction to Friday’s news.

Weis said Berglund had not yet provided him with a list of schools he’d like to be released to, but sources have said it may include Hawaii, Washington and Liberty, where Weis’ predecessor, Turner Gill, now coaches.

Although Weis and KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger said they were acting on principle on this one, the delay in releasing Berglund drew criticism from many.

Asked if he was concerned about any negative affects this incident might have in dealing with future players, Weis was blunt.

“No,” he said. “As a matter of fact, it has had absolutely no impact on recruiting.”

Asked if he was concerned about a lack of depth at the quarterback position, Weis answered with equal confidence.

“I think we have that covered, OK,” he said. “I think we have that covered.”

she was 1-for-7 from the floor after three quarters, the junior scored 12 of the Firebirds’ 15 fourth-quarter points by hitting four of her seven shots and all three of her free throws.

“She’s a great player,” Duncan said, “so when she’s struggling a little bit, you just tell her to keep shooting,” FSHS (9-3) was in dire need of some late-game heroics. The Firebirds had scored just 23 points through three quarters and trailed by seven entering the fourth. Scout Wiebe hit Kirkpatrick for a three-pointer to open Free State’s comeback, and after an A’Liyah Rogers free throw cut the Blues’ lead to three, Kirkpatrick scored her team’s next seven points.

Rural’s lead was down to two with two minutes to go, and FSHS senior Jackie Garcia tied the game at 36 with 57 seconds left with an offensive rebound and bucket in the paint.

Kirkpatrick was proud of her team’s ability to fight back and win to advance to the tournament championship game.

“We always keep our composure,” she said.

Duncan agreed and liked

didn’t go in.”

Neither Lawrence players or coaches could believe it as good look after good look failed to drop.

“You’ve got to find a way to make those, take advantages of those situations,” Wood said.

Problems really started mounting for LHS in the fourth quarter, even though it led 35-24 after the third.

Kionna Coleman scored six points in the first few minutes, and Lawrence sub Mutiyat Hameed hit a turnaround shot in the paint to get the team off to a solid start. However, the Lions made four of their nine shot attempts and turned the ball over nine times in the fourth.

After the Jaguars’ Mariah Coleman grabbed an offen-

after meeting with Sanner and Corliss. “I did not know what to expect because Lawrence is off the beaten path.

I’m pleasantly surprised at the quality of your facilities and in how proactive this city is and how willing the city is to invest to making this a special place.”

Brown-Beamon said members of her staff raved about Rim Rock Farm as a potential site for the cross country national championships, and she said she plans to see it today.

“Lawrence is not what we thought it was,” BrownBeamon said. “This is a great little town. If Bob stays steady on the things that he plans, this can definitely be an amateur-sports destination. You have everything you need here.

You have the facilities because you have the university here. You can do basketball. You can do volleyball. You have the track.

You basically have everything you need here.”

She estimated 3,000 athletes would compete in cross country, roughly 2,500 in indoor track and about 15,000 in the Junior Olympics.

Plans for lighting up Lawrence with track and field sooner than those events include having world-class men’s and women’s athletes competing in the high hurdles, pole vault, long jump and 100 meters in downtown events on the weekend of July 15. The tentative plans call for youth races as well.

“It gives you an up-closeand-personal feel,” Foster said. “At a stadium, the athletes look so far away, and the fans can’t say anything to them. Believe it or not, these athletes are all very personable.”

Foster recalled fondly running an outdoor hurdles race in New York City at Times Square in the early 1980s.

“I’m telling you, I enjoyed it so much it was truly unbelievable,” Foster said. “We had a clinic the day before.

They actually had us going over hurdles and showing people how to hurdle. We are going to do that here, too.”

Joyner-Kersee said she never had the pleasure of competing in a downtown event.

“I wish they did have that back in the day because that’s all I trained on was the streets,” she said. “I think the excitement of it and really the creativity, having a live band, ordinary people not used to track meets can learn more about track and field and also about different athletes.”

Kansas pole vault coach Tom Hays and his son, Ryan Hays, said they long have discussed the possibility of having a downtown polevault event, which led to discussions about having other events as well.

More than anything, the Firebirds’ calm approach impressed their coach.

“We didn’t freak out,” Duncan said. “We got down seven, and we called a timeout, and I could tell they were still ready to go.”

It was hard for the Lions to comprehend how things got out of hand so quickly.

After complaining that she had no money, I saw my sister-in-law buying the kids new toys and clothes. She also bought a new car, although she needed one. None of this would matter if she would take my phone calls, anniesmailbox@comcast.net but she won’t speak to me dicalls because he is “otherwise rectly.

As sweetly as you can manage, tell him that you look forward to his call all day, and when he doesn’t phone and you can’t reach him, you worry. This makes you stressed, makes him resentful and, over time, will eat away at your marriage.

‘Namath’ profiles NFL game-changer A divisive pop culture icon, cautionary tale and sports star all rolled into one, quarterback Joe Namath inspires a 90-minute film to match his multifaceted legend in “Namath” (7 p.m., HBO).

By any measure, there have been better quarterbacks before and after Joe Namath, men with names like Unitas, Elway, Marino, Montana, Manning and Brady. But none of these players changed the game or personified a cultural fault line quite like “Broadway Joe.” ‘‘Namath” divides into four nearly equal parts. We begin and end with the touching backstory of a boy from the modest Pennsylvania steel town of Beaver Falls. We also have the standard sports hagiography, complete with Liev Schreiber narration.

And no official NFL film would be complete without a swelling musical score that drowns nearly every scene in pathos and schmaltz. Namath played football very well. He did not part the Red Sea. The best part of the film uses period footage to chronicle Namath’s emergence as a bon vivant ladies’ man, TV commercial star, clotheshorse, controversial saloon owner, Hollywood regular and talk show host during the swinging ’60s. Want to see Joe with Truman Capote? Ann-Margret? Woody Allen?

They’re here!

While many of his crew-cut critics castigated him as a hippie, Namath was really the Elvis of professional football, ushering the NFL into the television age and broadening the game’s audience to include women and young people, who had previously dismissed football as violent, Neanderthal and hopelessly square.

Like Elvis and Mickey Mantle, Namath was a small-town boy turned superstar let loose in a candy store of hedonism and excess that would be his undoing.

Namath’s private pain and public shame provide grist for the last quarter of the film.

Namath spends a lot of “Namath” alone, a man in a simple wooden chair answering questions — a man who has grown perceptively older and, if the film is to believed, appreciably wiser, with the passage of time.

UNIVERSAL CROSSWORD

have been included in reading the cards people sent — especially ones addressed to our entire family? A lot of hurt feelings are accumulating because of my sister-inlaw’s behavior. — Will Be Grieving a Long Time Dear Grieving: You’ve been very generous, but your sister-in-law is probably overwhelmed dealing with her husband’s death and the emotional welfare of her children. Why not offer to come over and help her write the thank-you notes? Bring dinner. We think she’d appreciate it.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Saturday, Jan. 28: This year avoid power plays and conflicts. You often could be disappointed by others’ reactions. Learn not to rely on this type of feedback. If you are single, you could be attracted to someone who is not emotional available. If you are attached, the two of you need to agree to disagree.

Aries knows how to help you out of the doldrums.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Your ability to energize and get going marks your decisions. Others naturally want to go off with you on an adventure.

Tonight: The world is your oyster.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Take some time off from the grueling pace.

Dear Annie: Six years ago, I married “Richard.” He is a wonderful, caring, good-looking man. We returned from our honeymoon to find out he had lost his job. The next three years were a roller coaster, and he finally found employment 18 months ago.

Richard has to travel out of state a great deal. He currently rents a home with four other co-workers. It’s about three hours away, and he comes home on the weekends. After work, the guys meet up for dinner and a couple of beers.

The only demand I place on Richard is that he call home and check in once he gets settled for the night. I work a long day and have a 10-year-old and three dogs at home. Sometimes, Richard doesn’t call. If I don’t hear from him by 10:00, I phone, but it often takes two hours of trying before he answers. He’ll say he was sleeping. When I ask why he didn’t call as promised, he claims he was tired.

The miles between us take away any control I have to check the possibilities. Richard says I’m overreacting and being childish. I have asked what has him so preoccupied that he neglects to call, but he can’t give me an answer.

How should I handle this the next time it happens? — Hands Tied in Michigan Dear Michigan: Richard may avoid nightly phone
