State delays pension, school funds $124 million in payments diverted so government can cover other bills

By John Hanna Associated Press Writer

T O P E K A — Kansas has postponed a contribution to educators’ pensions and again delayed half of its general state aid payments to public schools because of a cash crunch, state officials confirmed Friday.

Deputy Education Commissioner Dale Dennis told The Associated Press the two items together total about $124 million. It’s the second consecutive month that the state has delayed

part of its payments to its 289 school districts so that it can cover other bills.

Republican Gov. Sam Brownback’s spokeswoman and a GOP leader in the Kansas House said the delays show why the state needs to get its finances in order, starting with legislation to trim spending from the current budget. The House plans to debate a budget-cutting bill next week, after moving to impose a rule that would make it more difficult for members to propose spending increases.

Officials said delays in payment shouldn’t keep school districts from making Brownback their payrolls or paying other bills on time.

Mark Tallman, a lobbyist for the Kansas Association of School Boards, said districts understand the delays are caused by the state’s ongoing financial problems.

But Senate Education Committee Chairwoman Jean Schodorf said the state’s actions add to teach-

ers’ and administrators’ worries about cuts in education funding as the budget debate progresses.

“School districts don’t trust the state because we are not paying them on time, and they cannot depend on the state to get the payments to them,” said Schodorf, a Wichita Republican.

Driver killed as train collides with car

SATURDAY • FEBRUARY 5 • 2011

A 22-year-old rural Lecompton man died early Friday afternoon after a train hit a pickup truck northwest of Lawrence.

Douglas County Undersheriff Steve Hornberger said the collision occurred at a BNSF Railway Company crossing at East 950 Road, northwest of Lakeview Lake. The train came to a stop about a half-mile east of the crossing, and the truck had sustained heavy damage, especially on the driver’s side of the vehicle.

The accident was report-

ed just after noon. After they notified his family, sheriff ’s officials Friday evening identified the victim as Kyle Snyder.

Hornberger said Snyder was the driver of the pickup truck and that no one else was in the vehicle. The pickup truck was headed north on East 950 Road, which is a gravel road, at the crossing, the undersheriff said.

Andy Williams, a BNSF spokesman, said it was a public crossing that was not protected by flashing lights or gates. The intersection does have crossbucks identifying Please see DRIVER, page 5A

23RD STREET

City on hook for $1.2M in bridge relocation

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

A project to replace a 23rd Street bridge won’t only test the patience of area motorists but also will put a dent in city coffers.

City staff members recently gave commissioners more details about $1.2 million worth of work that the city will have to undertake as part of the Kansas Department of Transportation’s plan to replace a 23rd Street bridge in 2012.

KDOT is proceeding with plans to rebuild the bridge between Haskell and Learnard avenues in spring 2012. But that means city crews also must start work

to relocate several sewer and water lines that run underneath the bridge but will interfere with the project.

The city has four sewer lines ranging in size from 12 inches to 27 inches, and several water mains ranging from 8 inches to 12 inches under the bridge. Commissioners last week approved a $110,000 engineering contract to begin the planning needed to move the lines, but the total relocation costs are expected to be about $1.2 million.

Even though the bridge is KDOT’s responsibility, moving the utility lines to accommodate the project is the city’s responsibility.

City officials aren’t complaining because the city routinely makes utilities pay to move power lines, telephone lines and other types of utilities to accommodate city road projects.

“It is something we’ve required utilities to do many times,” said Chuck Soules, the city’s director of public works.

The $1.2 million project already has been factored into the city’s water and sewer rates, so commissioners won’t need to make any changes to rates to pay for the project.

Soules said KDOT officials tell him that the project remains on schedule and that engineers understand

the importance 23rd Street plays in Lawrence’s transportation network. Soules said current plans call for the project to start shortly after the 2012 Final Four and to be largely completed before football season begins.

“That will be really fast for that large of a project,” Soules said.

Plans still call for traffic to remain open in both directions. The project will include building two “shoefly” roads. The roads will take traffic down and along each side of the bridge project, and then back up to 23rd Street.

Consider it a plot twist for the nearly $20 million expansion and parking garage project for the Lawrence Public Library.

City commissioners at their meeting on Tuesday will consider approving a $1 . 2 million design contract with Lawrencebased Gould Evans Architects, but some city leaders now want to consider enlarging the proposed 250space parking Cromwell garage.

“We have one opportunity to do this,” said City Commissioner Aron Cromwell. “I think it is at least worth having the option and a price tag presented to us.”

City Manager David Corliss is proposing that the architects put together a bid option that would add another level to the garage, which will be built on the existing parking lot that is between the library and the senior center.

The new level would add another 50 to 75 spaces to the 250 spaces that are currently proposed.

For sale: one Amelia Earhart Memorial Bridge TOPEKA— It has been in the family for generations, but federal and state officials are willing to say goodbye.

The heirloom is the 73year-old Amelia Earhart Memorial Bridge on U.S Highway 59.

The historic steel truss bridge spans the Missouri River from Atchison to Winthrop, Mo. It is being replaced by a new bridge currently under construction.

The Kansas Department of Transportation is soliciting bids to relocate the old structure, which was first known as the Free Bridge, then the Mo-Kan Bridge. In 1997, its name was changed to the Amelia Earhart Memorial Bridge. The bridge is eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places.

Bidders may offer to relocate the entire 2,500-foot span or portions of it. The state will even provide up to $200,000 for relocation expenses.

“Technical difficulties and substantial costs should be anticipated,” a state news release on the project says.

The state is accepting relocation proposals until April 1.

The new bridge is scheduled to be completed this fall, and the plan is to move the old bridge next year.

DEATHS Judith Mae (Satterfield) Henderson Judith Mae (Satterfield) Henderson, 70, of Lawrence, died February 4, 2011 at Lawrence Memorial Hospital of cancer.

She was born Sept. 29, 1940, in Dodge City, KS, the daughter of LeRoy and Daisy (Corey) Satterfield of Plains, KS. She grew up in Plains, the youngest of four children, and graduated from Plains High School in 1958.

She married Conrad Henderson, a student of German language whom she met in college at the University of Kansas, and they married in June 1961 on campus at Danforth Chapel. Judith graduated from KU in 1962 with a bachelor’s degree in French. At KU, she had roles in numerous theater productions, most notably as Abigail in “The Crucible.”

Judy’s teaching career began at Wyandotte High School in Kansas City, KS, from 1962 to 1964, and then she took time off to have her first child and travel extensively in Europe while her husband was on a Fulbright Teaching Exchange in Germany. She resumed teaching French at Lawrence High School from 1970 until her retirement, in 2000.

At LHS, Judy taught all levels of the language and served as the French Department chairwoman.

She tried to open a window on a new world for her students beyond basic language learning. She was an effective teacher with sincere and long-lasting rapport with her students. Many of her students thought of her as an important influence in their lives and careers. In 1984, Judy earned an American Association of Teachers of French fellowship to study in Avignon, France. In 1990, she received a Rockefeller Foundation grant for research in Metz, France, and later received two National Endowment for the Humanities fellowships to study French authors during two summers in Paris and the Dordogne. She also studied in Quebec, Canada, and Lyon, France.

Also during her tenure, Judy was president of the Lawrence Education Association from 1979 to 1980, served on the Faculty Advisory Council at LHS and was the school’s French Club sponsor. In addition, Judith coached LHS junior varsity volleyball and cross-country track, was a longtime scorekeeper for the LHS volleyball games, a volunteer at the Lawrence Visitors Center and Friends of

the Lawrence Library, and was active in the Friends in Council study Henderson club. She was a member of the Chi Omega Social Sorority, the American Association of Teachers of French and was a former Girl Scout troop leader.

After her retirement, Judy and Conrad continued to travel through France, Germany and the rest of Europe, especially with the “Table Ronde” study group from Marl, Germany, an adult education group led by a German friend and former French teacher at the Albert-Schweitzer Gymnasium there. The couple did not neglect the United States, with travels to see their children and grandchildren on both sides of the continent, and spending time each summer at Judy’s brother and sister-in-law’s cabin in Colorado near Estes Park, with many glorious hikes along the stream that ran past the place her brother, an English professor, jokingly referred to as “Paradise Regained.”

She is survived by her husband of Lawrence; a daughter, Kristen Dakota and her husband, Keenan, of Louisa, VA; a son, Patrick and his wife, Jes Maharry, of Ojai, CA; two grandsons, Arlo Millich and Rowan Dakota; two granddaughters, Isabella (Zela) and Liv Henderson of Ojai; one brother, Leon Satterfield and his wife, Mary Ann of Lincoln, NE; a sister, Delores Jones of Lawrence; and many beloved nieces and nephews who will always have a special place in their hearts for Aunt Judy.

She was preceded in death by her parents, and a sister, Marilyn Buck.

The family will greet friends from 2:30-4:30 P.M. Sunday, February 6, 2011, at Warren-McElwain Mortuary in Lawrence.

Memorial services will be announced at a later date at the Lawrence Unitarian Fellowship.

The family suggests memorials to the Douglas County Visiting Nurses, Rehabilitation and Hospice Care or to the KU Endowment Association for the Study Abroad Program and may be sent in care of the mortuary in Lawrence.

Online condolences may be sent to www.warrenmcelwain.com.

Susan Woodward Pearson Susan Woodward Pearson left us on January 26, 2011, after suffering a severe stroke.

Susan was born on April 5, 1917 in Rocky Hill, Connecticut, the youngest of three girls. After completing school in Rocky Hill, Susan went on to further education at Mary Washington College in Fredericksburg, VA, graduating with a degree in Home Economics. She began her career in the food industry which eventually took her to Topeka, KS, to join the Gas Service Company serving ultimately as Director of the Home Service Staff.

In 1950 Susan met Thomas F. Pearson Sr. who was widowed and raising two children. They found many things in common and married on January 16, 1951. In 1972 Susan and Tom retired and they hit the dusty trails in their Holiday Rambler. These were many wonderful years but after Susan caught Tom dozing at the wheel more than once they decided to plant their anchor in Fort Myers, Fl. In 1996 they felt the need to be closer to the family and settled in John Knox Village in Lee’s Summit, MO.

BRIEFLY Man faces 4 counts in sex crime case A Garden City man appeared in Douglas County District Court on Friday to face child sex crime charges alleged to have occurred in Lawrence from 2007 to 2009.

James George, Douglas County’s judge pro-tem, agreed to keep the 31-year-old man’s bond at $80,000 cash or surety after he was brought to Douglas County Jail on a warrant Thursday from Finney County.

The man faces two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and one count of aggravated indecent solicitation of a child because he’s accused of molesting and soliciting a child who was between the ages of 9 and 11 at the time.

He faces a fourth count of attempted aggravated indecent liberties with a child because he’s accused of attempting to molest another child that would have been 8 to 10 years old at the time.

Prosecutors allege the incidents occurred in Lawrence but did not provide further details.

The man has a hearing scheduled for Wednesday in front of District Judge Michael Malone.

The Journal-World generally does not identify sex crime suspects unless they have been convicted.

Agreement reached in sale of KTKA Staff report

Free State Communications LLC and PBC Broadcasting LLC announced Friday that they have signed a definitive agreement for PBC to acquire the assets of KTKA, the ABC television affiliate in Topeka, from Free State. The acquisition is subject to regulatory approvals and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2011.

Additionally, PBC and Free State have signed a local marketing agreement under which PBC will immediately begin brokering the commercial air time of KTKA. Free State, an indirect subsidiary of The World Company of Lawrence, which is the publisher of the Lawrence Journal-World, acquired the station in August 2005. The World Company sold its Sunflower Broadband division in October 2010. With the sale of KTKA the company will have completed its exit from broadcasting. It will focus on publishing magazines and newspapers and on its growing Internet and nationally known software operations, said Ralph Gage, director of special projects for the company.

For PBC, the acquisition continues an expansion of its broadcast footprint, with affiliated television stations currently owned in Youngstown, Ohio, and Savannah, Ga.

Views of post-Mubarak Egypt emerge A new rally Friday by nearly 100,000 protesters in Cairo and behind-the-scenes diplomacy from the Obama administration piled more pressure on President Hosni Mubarak to make a swift exit and allow a temporary government to embark on an immediate path toward democracy.

Two days of wild clashes between protesters and regime supporters that killed 11 people this week seemed to have pushed the United States to the conclusion that an Egypt with Mubarak at the helm is potentially more unstable than one without him.

For the first time in the 11-day wave of protests, varying scenarios were being put forward by two opposing camps in Egypt and by the United States on how to usher the country into a post-Mubarak era after nearly 30 years of his authoritarian rule.

President Barack Obama said that discussions have begun in Egypt on a turnover of the government and he called for “a transition period that begins now.”

“We want to see this moment of turmoil turned into a moment of opportunity,” Obama said in Washington. He did not explicitly call for Mubarak to step down immediately, but U.S. officials said the administration has made a judgment that Mubarak has to go soon if the crisis is to end peacefully.

Drilling permits hitting snag Deepwater permits in the Gulf of Mexico have been withheld largely because the industry is unable to prove it could contain another major blowout at the bottom of the sea, the head of the agency that oversees offshore drilling said Friday.

Michael Bromwich, director of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement, made the disclosure in a letter he sent to executives at Exxon Mobil, Chevron and Helix Energy Solutions Group.

Bromwich asked the companies when the containment system they and others are working on will be ready. He also wanted to know how the companies will demonstrate that the equipment will be readily and immediately available to other firms in the event of a blowout.

“These systems are critical to moving forward with safe and responsible deepwater drilling activities,” Bromwich wrote.

Drilling was suspended last year when the administration imposed a monthslong moratorium following the BP spill. The ban was lifted in October, but drilling has not yet resumed in waters deeper than 500 feet in the Gulf.

A Douglas County judge on Friday ordered 30-year-old Bradley Ford of Lawrence to serve two years and eight months in prison after he was convicted in December of abusing his infant daughter and stepdaughter.

“Thirty-two months is not enough,” Ford’s wife, Natasha Short, said during the sentencing hearing. “And it’s unfortunate that he had to do that to my little girl and caused me the hell he has.”

Short spoke out even though prosecutors revealed Friday that she faces two counts of aggravated child endangerment in the case and has a first appearance scheduled for Feb. 17.

Ford pleaded no contest in December to two counts of child abuse after prosecutors accused him of abusing the two girls in September.

should be concerned about the state’s fiscal situation and how to achieve the mandatory balanced budget. What cuts will be necessary, and will taxes have to be raised to pay for all the programs and services the public and state employees think they are entitled to?

Added to the national debt scandal is the Social Security scandal, another monetary disaster that Congress has failed to correct. A recent CBO report said Social Security will run at a deficit this year and keep running in the red until its trust funds are drained by about 2037.

This is a bleaker forecast that previous CBO estimates.

The report said Social Security first went into deficit last year but had been projected to post surpluses for a few more years before permanently slipping into the red in 2016.

This year alone, Social Security will pay out $45 billion more in retirement, disability and survivor benefits than it collects in payroll taxes.

Again, what does it take for the American public to become more concerned about this nation’s debt, and what does it take for those in Congress to display the courage and guts to initiate long-overdue corrective actions?

The same could be asked of those in the Kansas Legislature.

Hazing allegations surround City to consider expanding KU’s Interfraternity Council proposed library garage

board members, except for those elected into new leadership positions.

The interfraternity council serves as a representative government for KU’s fraternities, and “[strives] to promote a positive Greek image,” according to its website.

Also in the report, former board members described the 2009 turnover ceremony, which involved older members placing pillowcases over their heads so they could not see what was happening.

Then, the report said, members were asked questions in a forceful manner,

and paddled by the person who held their post.

Last year, however, members opted not to use pillowcases, were not as aggressive with questions and didn’t paddle their replacements, the report said, but couldn’t explain why a paddle was used.

A decision on sanctions in the case continues to be under review by KU’s vice provost for student success.

The council could face sanctions including probation and being forced to institute more extensive anti-hazing educational programs that go beyond the basic ones, “which do not seem to be having an effect,” the report said.

“We are aware that hazing occurs on our campus and have taken concrete steps to confront it, including the formation of an anti-hazing task force and the hiring of a full-time conduct officer,” said university spokeswoman Jill Jess in a written statement.

She added that the fact that people are coming forward when hazing is suspected is a positive move toward ending the practice.

Interfraternity Council members did not respond to requests for comment.

ing testified Ford told them he became frustrated the night of Sept. 24 when his 6week-old daughter was crying and he threw her onto a bed, but she bounced onto the floor.

The alleged incident took place at their residence in the 200 block of Pinecone Drive.

On Sept. 25, police were called by medical personnel to Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., where the infant was being treated for several injuries, including broken bones.

Prosecutors had also said he choked his 6-year-old

stepdaughter earlier that week.

Ford’s defense attorney Elbridge Griffy said his client accepted responsibility in the case.

“I believe I stand next to a gentleman who has genuine remorse,” Griffy said. “We’ve had an opportunity to talk not only about the case but about circumstances surrounding his life recently and what his hopes are in terms of the future.”

Griffy said the defense had agreed not to ask for probation as part of the plea agreement with Chief Assistant District Attorney Amy McGowan.

District Judge Michael Malone said Ford had no prior criminal history, and Malone followed the terms of a plea agreement in the case.

He ordered Ford’s two 32month sentences to run concurrently with each other, meaning he can serve them at the same time.

Ford also gets credit for the 130 days he has spent in jail so far.

Short said the children had been in custody of a family member since the investigation began.

costs of the $19 million library project — $18 million from a bond issue approved by voters in November and $1 million from private fundraising done by the Lawrence Public Library Foundation. Both Corliss and Cromwell said the money for additional parking would not come from the bond issue. Instead, Corliss said it could come from the city’s parking fund, capital reserve funds or CITY other COMMISSION sources.

Cromwell said if the city moves ahead with the extra parking that it will be important to do so without increasing the mill levy.

“I think there could be a tendency for people to worry about a bait-and-switch going on here,” Cromwell said.

“That is not at all what we’re trying to do. I think because of that, though, it is imperative that we not raise the mill levy to do this.”

A major selling point in the library bond campaign was that the project would not increase the mill levy by more than two mills — 1.5 mills for the construction and 0.5 mills for increased operations.

If commissioners approve the design contract on Tuesday, bids for the project could be received by this fall. Construction on a new library is expected to take about 20 months.

Several other design issues also are scheduled to be discussed Tuesday. They include: ● Designing the parking garage in a way that would allow it to also function as a public transit hub. Currently, the city’s main transfer point for the transit system is at Ninth and New Hampshire streets. The transfer station today is essentially just an outdoor bus stop. A fa c i l i ty i n t h e pa rk i n g garage would include restrooms and indoor waiting area. ● Consider how a public plaza area in front of the new library could be utilized to host the Downtown Lawrence Farmers' Market.

The market currently operates in the 800 block of New Hampshire and the 1000 block of Vermont streets. But leaders of the market previously have expressed interest in having more space for vendors, access to restroom facilities, and perhaps other amenities such as a portable kitchen. ● Cromwell said architects will be told to continue working on exterior design

I’m a sweet young thing looking for love! A pit bull terrier mix, I’m a classy girl who’s mainly white with some black spots. At 7 months of age, I’ve got puppy love to share with you. And, oh, how I love to be petted. I’m one happy and friendly gal at that “eager” age: eager to learn, eager to love, eager for a home of my own. Just 35 dollars for my adoption fee? Sweet!

My breed, a border collie mix, is known for being intelligent, athletic, and eager to learn. That’s me, all right! And my black and white coat makes me a “looker” too. I’m a young lad with a kind and loving temperament, very playful and willing. I’ll need daily exercise to live a happy and healthy life. Want an active, eager-to-please companion?

Have 35 bucks? Hey: I’m for you, and you’re for me!

options for the library building. Exterior renderings were presented during the November bond issue, but Cromwell said he wants more options to consider.

“We’re really focusing on trying to get the best building we can,” Cromwell said.

“We’re not at all going to be limited by those previous renderings. I think everybody agrees there is significant work still to be done on the exterior.” ● Corliss also plans to begin studying the feasibility of a special bus route that may help people get to the library and the senior center during the 20-month construction project. Parking in the area will be limited during construction. But Corliss said a special transit route that travels between key parking lots in downtown and then drops people off at the library area could be a potential solution.

Commissioners meet at 6:35 p.m. on Tuesday at City Hall.

I arrived to the shelter just a kitten.

Now I’m going on 2 years old and sadly, I’m still here. I’m an animated, on-the-go girl, and I’d really like to go . . . home, that is, with a special someone. I have a soft gray coat with awesome black stripes and an extra cute face. I even do a little talking. So, let’s talk about our relationship — I know we’re made for each other!

I was an adorable little girl when I came to the shelter as a puppy. Now, 9 months later, I’m still here, a little bigger, and even more adorable. I’m happy-go-lucky, outgoing, eager to learn, and I really long for affection.

I’m more than just your average black Lab. You’ll see. Give me a chance, and you’ll never find a better friend than me. Right now, my adoption fee is only $35.

I’m not sure where my name came from. I’m anything but a secret warrior. Maybe it’s because I’m sleek and black. But hey, I’m just sweet little me. In fact, I’m a little shy. But once I know you’re OK, I’m all about love and affection. I have a perky personality just waiting to be discovered. And if I could do one of those Ninja tricks, I’d fly away, straight into your loving arms!

I’m a little gal that’s big on love. I’m 1 to 2 years old and have a beautiful soft coat with black stripes. I like to have things sort of quiet, but it’s not quiet at the shelter — it’s a little scary. A peaceful, gentle home is my dream of dreams. I like to play, but I love to cozy up for some sweet affection. Often when I’m all alone, I imagine my new home with you, and then I smile.

I’ve been at the shelter almost half my life, and I sure miss the comforts of home. I’m sleek and black with bright curious eyes, and, yes, I am a curious girl. I’m about a year and a half old, and while I love to play, I have no problem finding a comfy spot on your lap during breaks. I’m sweet and personable, get along with other cats, and I’m sure to become the family favorite in no time!

Bloch was to be sentenced Thursday, but Robinson postponed that until MonBloch day because of her ruling. It’s one of many delays in sentencing since Bloch’s plea because of the jail time issue.

“The court finds that no authority supports the requests of counsel that the court either interpret the sentencing provision as discretionary, or, alternatively, disregard the provision,” Robinson wrote. “The court therefore declines the invitation to do so.”

Bloch’s lawyer, William Sullivan, expressed disappointment with the ruling but said he was “gratified that the government supported our position that the statute does not require a mandatory sentence, and we will continue to pursue a just resolution to this matter.”

Watchdog groups had criticized the plan for probation, writing to Robinson to argue that Bloch serve jail time.

The U.S. attorney’s office declined to comment on the ruling.

A Douglas County judge on Friday delayed sentencing for a 28-year-old Lawrence man convicted of firing a gun Aug. 1 into a south Lawrence apartment and injuring six people.

The defense attorney for Sinh Lavongsa had objected to results of an investigation into Lavongsa’s criminal history, which would determine the severity of the sentence he faces.

Defense attorney Craig Stancliffe said there was a question about whether some documentation in the investigation involved his client or someone with the same name.

District Judge Michael Malone rescheduled the sentencing for 3:15 p.m. Feb. 25.

Lavongsa in December pleaded no-contest to six counts of aggravated battery.

Prosecutors accused him of firing a handgun eight times into an apartment in the early morning hours at The Exchange, 3100 Ousdahl Road, after he heard someone yell racial slurs at him.

Lavongsa is a citizen of Thailand and faces deportation after serving his expected prison sentence.

LAWRENCE • STATE

‘Pay-go’ provision moves forward

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — House Republicans ran over Democrats on Friday, giving preliminary approval of rules that will allow secret caucus meetings and a so-called “pay-go” provision that will require any spending increase to be offset by a cut elsewhere in the budget.

Rep. Lance Kinzer, ROlathe, said the budget provision was needed to control spending.

“This rule is a key first step in getting the fiscal house of Kansas back in order,” he said.

But Democrats said the proposal puts too much power in the hands of House LEGISLATURE Appropriations Committee members because the House couldn’t exceed the bottom line of any budget produced by a majority on the 23-member committee, or 12 members.

“We are taking away the power of the constituents that we represent,” said House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence. “What’s going on today is a power grab. This is a very slippery slope.”

Democrats also argued pay-go was unnecessary to curb spending because the Legislature can’t def icit spend and must balance the state budget.

The measure won firstround approval 74-34. All 74 votes for the new rules were cast by Republicans. Of the 34 votes opposed, 31 were Democrats and three were Republicans. Seventeen members were absent. A final vote is set for Monday.

Under House Resolution 6004, any amendment on the House floor to an appropriations bill that increases spending would require a corresponding cut elsewhere. The measure would effectively cap spending to the amount decided by the budget-writing

Appropriations Committee.

Republicans said the rule would provide the discipline needed to cut the budget as legislators face an estimated $550 million revenue shortfall.

House Speaker Mike O’Neal, R-Hutchinson, who was not present in the Legislature on Friday, released a statement after the rules were approved, saying, “By passing budget reform at the state level, the House is taking the first step towards the fundamental changes needed to ensure the long-term fiscal health of our state.”

But Democrats argued that the rules would make it difficult to allocate funds during emergencies, such as snowstorms or tornadoes, or take advantage of unforeseen federal dollars.

Rep. Stan Frownfelter, DKansas City, tried to add an amendment that would have required any tax cut be offset by a tax increase or budget cut elsewhere to ensure the move was revenue neutral.

But Republicans defeated that proposal.

The new rules also allow the House majority leader and House minority leader to close their respective caucus.

“I have a problem denying the press and denying the public access,” said Rep. Sean Gatewood, D-Topeka.

Republicans argued much of the business of the Legislature is done behind closed doors, but legislators’ votes are public.

Rep. Clark Shultz, R-Lindsborg, who is chair of the House Rules Committee, said he hopes the new rule to allow closed caucus meetings is rarely used.

“I think we need to have our meetings open,” he said.

Davis said he would keep the House Democratic caucus open to the press and public.

The new rules will probably be in place when the House takes up an appropriations bill on Tuesday. The Senate doesn’t have a “paygo” provision.

State delays funds for pension, schools CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

to provide $130 million in monthly general aid payments to school districts Tuesday but sent out only half that amount. Dennis said he expects the remaining $65 million to be paid “in the very near future.”

But the state’s quarterly $59 million contribution to the pension plan for teachers and other educators was due Jan. 14 and still hasn’t been paid, Dennis said. He did not know when it will be made.

“It’s cash flow,” Dennis said.

Brownback spokeswoman Sherriene Jones-Sontag said the delays allowed the state to continue meeting its payroll, making bond payments and paying health care providers who serve the needy.

The state delayed the aid to schools and the pension contributions even though its financial picture appeared to brighten after better-thanexpected tax revenue collections in January.

Kansas faces a projected $550 million shortfall between anticipated revenues and current spending commitments for the fiscal year that begins July 1. However, legislative researchers are expected to revise that figure in light of January’s revenues.

The state often faces cash crunches early in the year because bills come due well before the state collects the bulk of its individual income tax revenues in the spring.

Jones-Sontag said February is the worst month for cash flow because the state is starting to pay income tax refunds.

State officials don’t expect a short delay in aid payments to cause significant problems for schools, making it a first option. Dennis said school districts received semiannual revenues in January from

local property taxes, making the delay in part of February’s state aid payments less of a problem.

“It’s obviously not a good practice that we want to have, but it’s not unexpected,” Tallman said. “The school districts, I would say, just don’t expect the money to be paid on time.”

House Majority Leader Arlen Siegfreid, an Olathe Republican, said the state’s cash flow problems will be addressed in tackling the budget shortfall and, eventually, building up the state’s cash reserves.

But he acknowledged, “Some of these things may continue to happen up to the first of July.”

Husband: Giffords would embrace flight decision

By Marcia Dunn and Juan A. Lozano Associated Press Writers

HOUSTON — The astronaut husband of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords said Friday his wounded wife would embrace his decision to rocket into space in two months and he expects her to be well enough to be at his launch.

Space shuttle commander Mark Kelly refused to say whether the congresswoman took part in his decision and declined to go into details about her condition or whether she can communicate.

“I know her very well and she would be very comfortable with the decision that I made,” Kelly told reporters.

His decision, announced Friday, comes just four weeks after Giffords was shot in the head outside a Tucson, Ariz., supermarket. His choice to lead space shuttle Endeavour’s final voyage was made easier, he said, by his wife’s rapid progress in rehab.

The 46-year-old astronaut said he never imagined in the immediate aftermath of the shooting that he would ever fly the two-week mission. He immediately quit training after the Jan. 8 shooting.

Kelly said he told her mother there was no way he’d leave Giffords’ side. Gloria Giffords responded, “What, are you kidding me?”

Within two weeks, Giffords was transferred to TIRR Memorial Hermann hospital in Houston, and that’s when he started reconsidering. He weighed how much time he could spend with her, and how much he needed to be with his crew at Johnson Space Center on the outskirts of Houston.

“So that’s a debate I had with myself,” he said. The fact that she’s busy all day in rehab was key, he added.

Kelly said their parents, siblings and his teenage daughters were “completely unanimous.”

“Everybody felt that this was the right thing for me to do,” he said.

Kelly said any critics of his decision don’t know his wife.

“She is a big supporter of my career, a big supporter of NASA,” he said.

Giffords’ bullet wound was devastating. Though doctors described her early progress as remarkable, they have said very little about her condition. Houston doctors are not giving updates.

In the first several days after the shooting, she gave a thumbs up and was able to stand with help. She massaged her husband’s neck, picked out colors on an iPad and playfully took the ring off a nurse’s finger. Friends and Kelly described her as able to understand them.

But rehab experts say her progress will be slow, and the head of the hospital where she’s staying said doctors will help her reach “a new normal.”

No one has yet reported that Giffords has spoken or made sounds. She can swallow and breathe on her own and follows commands to lift an arm or a leg.

Kelly said a doctor told him she’s doing better than 99 percent of other people with this type of injury. He said he’s not providing any updates on her condition to avoid speculation by strangers.

“It’s not something I feel comfortable talking about,” he said.

When asked if Giffords might be well enough to attend his launch, he replied: “Absolutely. I have every intention that she’ll be there for the launch. I’ve already talked to her doctors about it.”

Giffords, 40, was meeting with constituents when she was gunned down. Six people were killed and 13 were injured in the rampage; a 22year-old suspect is in custody.

Kelly’s space mission will be Endeavour’s final flight and the fourth for him. He will lead a veteran, all-male crew to the International Space Station.

A Navy captain, he entered the astronaut corps in 1996, along with his identical twin Scott, who’s currently circling the planet as the space

station commander.

Two astronauts now in management positions sat at Kelly’s side during the 47minute news conference, televised live on NASA TV. They had chosen a backup commander just in case. After Kelly approached them a week ago about rejoining his crew, they discussed it with NASA flight surgeons as well as Giffords’ doctors. They told him to wait a week and try easing back into training, to see how it would feel being apart from his wife. He flew training jets twice this past week, did a four-hour launch simulation and even went out of town.

In the end, NASA officials agreed he was ready to return to the shuttle commander’s seat. Chief astronaut Peggy Whitson explained that it’s better to fly someone who’s been training for the past 18 months, like Kelly has, than to plug in someone new.

Unemployment falls to 9 percent

By Jeannine Aversa and Christopher S. Rugaber Associated Press Writers

WASHINGTON — The unemployment rate is suddenly sinking at the fastest pace in a halfcentury, falling to 9 percent from 9.8 percent in just two months — the most encouraging sign for the job market since the recession ended.

More than half a million people found work in January.

A government survey found weak hiring by big companies. But more people appear to be working for themselves or finding jobs at small businesses.

The steepest two-month decline in unemployment since the Eisenhower administration is the latest sign that the economic recovery is picking up speed.

The service sector and manufacturing are growing again at pre-recession rates.

The Dow Jones industrial average closed above 12,000 this week for the first time since mid-2008. And retail sales have reached a five-year high.

“It is not all rosy. But we seem to be headed in the right direction,” said economist Chris Rupkey at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi. “The recovery is on track — warts and all.”

Yields on government bonds rose after the unemployment report came out, a sign that bond traders think the job market is improving and will lift the economy after a year and a half of only modest growth.

An unemployment rate of 9 percent remains very high by historical standards. But the swift decline in the rate could also lift confidence at a time when businesses and individuals are already spending more money, fueling more hiring and still-more spending.

Unemployment has not

been this low since April 2009.

“It’s the thinking, ‘I survived so far and I’ll make it through,’” said economist Nigel Gault of IHS Global Insight. “‘I can buy the things I postponed buying over the past several years because I’m not worried about my job.’”

It could also encourage people who had given up to look for jobs again, which might push the unemployment rate up temporarily.

People out of work aren’t counted as unemployed unless they’re looking for a job. Typically during a tight job market, some of the unemployed become discouraged and stop looking.

Still, economists think the unemployment rate will fall below 9 percent by year’s end — a far brighter outlook than they had a few months ago.

Those with jobs are making a little more, too. Average hourly earnings rose 8 cents to $22.86 in January. Over a 40-hour workweek, the increase works out to $3.20, a couple of cups of coffee.

Wages have risen nearly 2 percent over the past year, faster than the rate of inflation, which means people have more spending power.

The Labor Department survey of company payrolls showed a net gain of 36,000 jobs in January. That’s scarcely one-fourth the number needed to keep pace with population growth.

The government uses a separate survey of households to calculate the unemployment rate. It calls 60,000 households and asks people if they’re working or looking for a job.

This survey includes some people not counted in the payroll survey: the selfemployed, farm workers and domestic help. It also includes those who work at small companies.

Not much savings available from stimulus money

By Brett J. Blackledge Associated Press Writer

W A S H I N G T O N — Congressional Republicans say they want to cut federal spending by raiding $45 billion from President Barack Obama’s politically unpopular economic stimulus program. But they won’t be able to get their hands on most of that money.

At most, only about $7 billion of the $814 billion in economic recovery money awarded under the 2009 federal law hasn’t already been spoken for, according to the latest White House estimates.

And Republican leaders now acknowledge they would be lucky to identify as much as $5 billion in stimulus-related spending cuts as part of a plan to save taxpayers $2.5 trillion over 10 years.

Where did the money go?

It’s not that all the stimulus money has been spent; it has been committed for specific projects and programs. In the confusing money flow from Washington to the rest of the country, there’s still about $168 billion in stimulus money that has not actually been paid out, according to the administration. But it says nearly all of that money already is tied up in contracts with companies, obligations with states and local governments, promised taxpayer relief and commitments to government programs.

For states, much of that money for Medicaid and education has been worked into budgets, so if Congress took it

back it could leave shortfalls, said Raymond Scheppach, executive director of the National Governors Association. “That would be a serious problem, I think, because they’re depending on that money.”

The unspent money remains in the federal pipeline despite Obama’s promise that recovery spending would occur swiftly to stimulate the nation’s economy after Congress approved the program nearly two years ago.

Even the $7 billion the White House says is not yet obligated can’t readily be yanked back by Republicans as savings because, administration officials said, planning is well under way for the projects expected to benefit.

“These remaining dollars include funding for major high-speed rail, clean energy and other infrastructure projects that in many cases have already been awarded and just haven’t been formally put under contract,” said Liz Oxhorn, the White House’s spokeswoman for the economic recovery program.

“Rescinding these funds could halt job-creating projects years in the making where preliminary work in some cases is already under way.”

The Republican Study Committee, a group of House conservatives, announced a proposal last month to save the government $2.5 trillion over the next decade. Part of its plan involved pulling back $45 billion in stimulus money.

“

In the absence of a clearcut congressional favorite for the nomination, numerous governors and former governors have moved to position themselves to run.” be joined by Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota, Haley Barbour of Mississippi and now Jon Huntsman of Utah, who is coming home after serving as ambassador to Beijing.

The multiplicity of attractive and credible candidates makes it difficult for the governors to unite behind a single contender early, as they did behind George W. Bush, then governor of Texas, going into the 2000 campaign.

But there is another option — a favorite son strategy — that will pre-

serve and indeed enhance their leverage. Favorite sons are candidates who run only in their home states, where their popularity makes them formidable. The strategy has not been used for years in presidential races, but it is particularly inviting this year. There is reason to believe that Barbour, himself a long-shot possibility for the nomination, will exploit the respect he has gained among his peers as the chairman of the association to put forward the idea.

While Barbour is best positioned to put the favorite son strategy in play — and he has little to lose because several others would have to stumble before he could get a serious consideration — another governor will be more important in determining whether the strategy takes wing.

That is Terry Branstad, once again the governor of Iowa, decades after he finished his first long run in the job.

An exceptionally skilled politician, Branstad is generally counted in the Pawlenty camp. His support is the main reason Pawlenty is given a chance in the lead-off caucuses — even against Huckabee, the surprise 2008 winner in Iowa; Romney, who has invested heavily in organizing the state; and perhaps others, including

— David Broder is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

From the Lawrence Daily World for Feb. 5, 1911: “Because the neighbors gossiped about her when there was no YEARS foundation for their idle chatter, AGO Martha Pinzon, a sixteen year old IN 1911 farmer’s daughter, walked twentythree miles in search of work. The girl lives on a farm three miles northwest of McLouth. Wednesday morning at 1 o’clock, she concluded she would not remain at home any longer and started for Lawrence. The distance is twenty three miles and she walked every step of the way. She had no dinner nor supper and late that night, utterly exhausted and terrified at the darkness, she knocked at a farm home and asked for lodging. Her request was refused and she staggered on into North Lawrence where she met Miss Annie Karns and was given shelter.... The above story as gathered from the girl, does not appear to coincide with the facts as told by others. It is charged that the girl has been incorrigible and as such became a ward of the juvenile court and was on parole at the time she ran away. It is probable that the girl will now be sent to the industrial school at Beloit. It was indeed fortunate for her that she happened to fall into good hands in Lawrence.”

Newt Gingrich, the former speaker of the House.

Branstad’s decision to endorse the favorite son movement and make himself available as the Iowa favorite would be seen inevitably as a blow to Pawlenty. But it could serve Pawlenty well in later states such as New Hampshire, where he could back the favorite son rather than campaign there himself with little prospect of winning.

Were Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina, who entertains hopes of becoming the nominee as a tea party favorite, to declare himself the favorite son in the often crucial South Carolina primary, he might well foreclose others from running there, and they would all avoid what could be a damaging loss.

Ultimately I cannot tell who of the current aspirants, or such future possibilities as Gen. David Petraeus, might benef it from a successful favorite son movement. But it would preserve the governors’ leverage for the time that they might be united behind a single candidate. And meantime, it would fundamentally alter the dynamics of this intriguing, wideopen race.

Reagan gave America confidence in itself On the centenary of Ronald Reagan’s birth, I pause for another historic event: agreement with President Obama, who says of his predecessor in USA Today, “Ronald Wilson Reagan was a believer ... he recognized that each of us has the power — as individuals and as a nation — to shape our own destiny. He had faith in the American promise; in the importance of reaffirming values like hard work and personal responsibility; and in his own unique ability to inspire others to greatness.”

Precisely!

I suspect Reagan would be embarrassed by the attempts to elevate him to political sainthood. Even conservatives who now long for another Reagan were sometimes critical of him during his presidency and of those around him they believed were holding him back. “Let Reagan be Reagan” they cried, as if he wasn’t who he was.

What made Reagan a great president was that he understood America and his countrymen better than any politician of his time, or perhaps any time. He saw that the greatness of the country is not found in Washington, no matter which party or personality is in power. Rather, it is to be found in the people. Reagan awakened that dormant truth from hibernation.

Ronald Reagan didn’t need to be president to complete himself as a

Self-awareness is an essential quality in a leader if he or she is to avoid the siren call of narcissism and the temptations that go with the preoccupation about “legacy.”

Reagan awakened in many Americans the belief that no matter what the challenge, Americans can meet it. His opponents mocked him for what they regarded as an “old-fashioned” concept. In a time of growing dependency on government, based on the fallacy that we can’t do much on our own (and if we do we must be punished with higher taxes and more regula-

tion), such a notion was offensive to the dominant political culture. Reagan tapped into a principle that is as much a part of our DNA as motherhood and the American flag.

Reagan’s “vision for America” mirrored our vision of ourselves: strong internationally, economically sound at home. He restored our self-confidence at a time when his predecessor, Jimmy Carter, was suggesting America had seen its best days and we should trim our expectations and become “realists.”

Reagan, the eternal optimist, even after discovering he had Alzheimer’s disease, was always thinking about the future. Bill Clinton made the future his theme when he adopted Fleetwood Mac’s “Don’t Stop (Thinking About Tomorrow)” as his 1992 campaign song. After reading a book about Reagan, President Obama tried to channel him in his State of the Union address. It fell flat.

Trying to be Reagan without the substance didn’t fully succeed with Clinton either because of his selfabsorption, manifested in the sex scandals. It is even less likely to succeed with Obama because his big government philosophy is the antithesis of Reaganism. A theme must have more than a melody. It must be in harmony with America. Reagan’s was.

Obama sings his off-key.

Accurate and fair news reporting.

No mixing of editorial opinion with reporting of the news. ● Safeguarding the rights of all citizens regardless of race, creed or economic stature. ● Sympathy and understanding for all who are disadvantaged or oppressed. ● Exposure of any dishonesty in public affairs. ● Support of projects that make our community a better place to live.

A Google search for Reaganisms finds scores of little phrases that touched principles handed down by previous generations of Americans.

These aphorisms were born of Reagan’s own experiences with FDR Democrats and the notion that the bigger government gets, the fewer liberties we enjoy.

Here are just three: ● “We have a deficit, not because the government taxes too little, but because it spends too much.” ● “Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today’s world do not have.” ● “...there are great advantages to being elected president. The day after I was elected, I had my high school grades classified Top Secret.”

Self-deprecation and humility rested comfortably on Reagan’s broad shoulders.

Reagan didn’t promise to do great things for us. He showed us that great things came from within us. Modern Republicans would do well to remind themselves that America’s greatness doesn’t lie within politicians, but within each of its citizens. That is Reagan’s legacy.

Therapist fighting effort to commit her WICHITA (AP) — A therapist accused of stalking a Fort Riley soldier she was counseling for post-traumatic stress is fighting government efforts to have her committed for a mental examination.

The defense attorney for Rachelle Santiago filed a motion Friday seeking a local examination rather than the commitment of up to 45 days sought by prosecutors.

Prosecutors want to determine her competency to stand trial and whether she has a mental disease.

The 43-year-old Manhattan woman is charged with stalking the sergeant and attempting to elude pursuing police at Fort Riley.

Court documents allege that when she was booked into the Geary County Jail, Santiago screamed and flung body fluids at jailers. She also allegedly threatened to kill a nationally known comedian.

Her detention hearing is Tuesday in federal court in Topeka.

KU to clash today with confident NU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Lasting KU-NU memories LINCOLN, NEB. — Two crises apparently averted, it’s time for me to embrace the final KansasNebraska basketball game to be played in cozy, underrated Devaney Center.

First things first: Just making it to this game has proven to be a minor miracle.

The Lubbock airport was crippled by wintry weather all day Wednesday, making it impossible for the JournalWorld/KUsports.com crew to return from Tuesday’s KUTexas Tech game until midafternoon Thursday.

The barrage of flight cancellation notices on my cell phone all day Wednesday started to make me wonder (panic) if I, Tom Keegan, Jesse Newell and Richard Gwin would even be out of Texas by 3 p.m. today, much less in Lincoln in time for the 3 p.m. tipoff.

Even worse (for me) was a case of food poisoning that struck shortly after typing in the first paragraph of my KUTexas Tech game story. I’ll spare you the details of what it took to produce what is sure to be an award-winning gamer and set of game notes.

Holed up in the hotel all day Wednesday, I tried to believe the symptoms would last just 24 hours. Suffice it to say I was a bit skeptical after hour No. 12 of the invasion of my immune system.

We made it back to Lawrence by late-afternoon Thursday.

Thanks, Southwest Airlines, for finally getting us out of there.

The inner pangs of poisoning have subsided a bit, I think, so it’s up I-75, head left at Nebraska City onto Highway 2, for the 23rd straight year of KU-NU matchups.

To be honest, I hadn’t even considered waxing nostalgic about today’s final KU-NU meeting in Lincoln (fat chance of the schools ever scheduling regular-season games again following NU’s departure to the Big Ten next season) until I received an e-mail from Tom Shatel of the Omaha WorldHerald requesting some memories of trips to Lincoln.

So ... here are a few: ● March 20, 1988: The eventual 1988 national champion Jayhawks needed some good fortune to defeat Cinderella candidate Murray State in a second-round NCAA Tourney game in Devaney Center.

The Racers’ Don Mann missed an off-balance four-footer with a couple of seconds left.

It was a shot that, had it fallen, would have ended KU’s season and Danny Manning’s career, 60-59.

Instead, Mann’s easy shot attempt missed, Manning (the better Mann this day, pun intended) rebounded, was fouled, hit two free throws, and KU survived and advanced.

It arguably was KU’s toughest game of the tourney, save for an 83-79 title victory over Oklahoma in the championship game in Kemper Arena.

Good karma returned in 2008 when KU headed to Nebraska again — this time Omaha — for first- and second-round victories en route to another NCAA crown. ● Feb. 19, 1992: NU’s Jamar Johnson hit a three at the overtime buzzer to erase a 79-78 deficit and propel NU to an 8179 victory over No. 3 KU. As the fans knocked the media out of the way and stormed the court, NU coach Danny Nee hopped on the press table and waved wildly to the crowd. The fans actually cut down the nets in Devaney Center that day.

LINCOLN, NEB. — A three-point victory, 46 percent shooting from the floor, 53 percent shooting from the free-throw line and just 25 points in the first half.

Those were the facts the last time the Kansas University men’s basketball team faced off against Nebraska — Jan. 15 at Allen Fieldhouse — and KU coach Bill Self remembers them all too well.

“They def initely got our attention,” Self said of the Cornhuskers, who will play host to

We were fortunate to win the first time, and we

know that this will be probably as hard a game as we’ve played all year.”

The reasons for that are many, but they start and end with Nebraska’s defense. In the first half of the first meeting, Kansas trailed by as many as eight points, including a 30-25 deficit at the half, and shot just 33 percent from the floor during the first 20 minutes.

“They’re a great defensive team, first and foremost,” said junior forward Marcus Morris, who led KU with 16 points and 11 rebounds in the win. “They double-team the post, and their

guards are very scrappy, and they do a lot of help defense that’s good for them.”

Senior Tyrel Reed also pointed to NU’s defense as the thing that stood out from the previous meeting.

“I thought they played great defensively against us,” Reed said. “It was an extremely tough game in the fieldhouse, and they weren’t rattled by our fans or things like that.”

That was what got KU’s attention the most. Annually, teams come into Allen Fieldhouse

Long layoff pays off

Nine-day break fuels Lions in win over Vikings

By Clark Goble

Journal-World Sports Writer

Junior KJ Pritchard admitted that his team’s loss to city rival Free State just about sucked all the momentum out of the Lions.

An unusual nine-day layoff, two snow days and lethargic practices certainly didn’t help.

So maybe Friday’s convincing 66-52 victory over Shawnee Mission West on Friday at LHS is a big push in the right direction.

“I think it says a lot about us and where we’re going to go,” Pritchard said.

Pritchard scored the first nine points for the Lions (5-9), who jumped to a 9-3 lead.

They led, 14-11, at the end of the first quarter.

To open the second quarter, the Vikings (8-6) switched into a triangle-and-two defense, designed to limit Pritchard and junior Anthony Buffalomeat.

The intense defensive pressure didn’t really bother Pritchard.

“I knew my teammates would be there,” Pritchard said.

And they were there, especially at the end of the first half.

Senior Trent Edwards hit a threepointer from the top of the key as the buzzer sounded, giving the Lions a 27-22 halftime lead.

The defense did seem to affect Buffalomeat, at least for a while.

“I couldn’t even get open for the whole first half, it felt like,” Buffalomeat said.

He found plenty of space in the second half, ending the game with 18 points and 10 rebounds.

He said that assistant coach David Schneider is always pestering him about getting more rebounds in practice, so he just carried that over into the game.

LHS coach Mike Lewis knows Buffalomeat is key to his team’s success, especially when the other team seeks to eliminate Pritchard.

Unselfish FSHS routs Lancers

By Ben Ward Journal-World Sports Writer

A smile crept across Free State High boys basketball coach Chuck Law’s face at the first mention of the word “unselfish.”

The plays — making extra passes, taking charges, setting screens, helping defend the post — that define the word are the very things Law demands of his team.

Law had plenty to enjoy Friday night, when the entire Firebird Please see BEDORE, page 4B roster contributed in a 55-34 vic-

tory over Shawnee Mission East at FSHS. “We did a lot of really unselfish things,” Law said. “And that’s what good teams do.”

Georgi Funtarov (18 points) and Eric Watson (12 points) carried the bulk of the scoring load for the Firebirds, but everyone else on the court had a say in the action.

“It’s nice to get everyone a touch,” said senior Alec Heline, who led the team with six assists.

“Because then we all start playing really well, and it flows.”

Heline scored his two baskets early on, but chipped in w i t h t h re e s te a l s a n d f ive rebounds.

Senior Evan Manning didn’t score, but tallied four steals, two assists and two rebounds.

On one acrobatic occasion, Manning leapt over the Firebird bench to save an errant Lancer pass, which found its way to Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo Tyler Self, who, in turn, dished it off to Funtarov for a fast-break FREE STATE’S TYLER SELF, RIGHT, GOES AFTER A LOOSE BALL against Shawnee Mission East’s dunk.

COMMENTARY

Super Bowl (party) primer: Go Saints!

By Chris Erskine Los Angeles Times

Go Saints!

Oh, the Saints aren’t in the Super Bowl this year? Never mind. I don’t really care who’s in it, I just show up to the party, overhug the hostess, comment on all the wonderful things they’ve done with the house.

“Wow, new kitchen?”

“No.” “Must be all that great food, then,” I say, then over-hug the hostess again and wander off to eat my weight in chicken wings.

Yeah, you can fake a Super Bowl. Just follow me. Here’s how to have a great time on Sunday, even if you’re not a big football fan, on the biggest social occasion of the year: ■ Pitch in behind the bar or in the kitchen.

■ Wander the TV room with a cheese tray and a full bottle of wine. When someone holds out their empty glass, plop a piece of cheese in it and move on.

■ In the second quarter shout: “Who are you people? How did I get here?” then stumble toward the bedroom, fall on the pile of guest coats and take a two-hour nap.

Preferably, you’ll sleep through the halftime show, particularly this year’s. The Black-Eyed Peas are performing. They are led by a smug man with punctuation in his name. There is also a band member named apl.de.ap, which I think might be some kind of computer coding.

If that isn’t enough, there’s this Fergie, an underdressed singer. She is known primarily for her supple mind.

You’ll note that the NFL only picks Super Bowl acts that, like me, are a little past their prime. Last year, it was the Who. The year before, Ludwig van Beethoven. Big hit, Beethoven. And he didn’t even expose himself.

Honestly, I don’t care who plays at halftime, as long as it’s not me. Because halftime is an excellent time to show off my knowledge of professional football.

Don’t know anything about the game?

Neither do I. Don’t let that stop you. You just need a few ad-libs prepared in advance.

For instance, the Packers have this Buick of a man named B.J. Raji. He is a splendid specimen — as wide as he is tall.

When No. 90 waddles across the field, shout “Raj Mahal!”

Another way to liven up the party is to quote some relevant stats. Zoosk.com, a social website, surveyed 1,000 or so of its members and discovered: ■ 73 percent of women would rather watch the Super Bowl than have sex.

■ Nearly 50 percent of men would rather have sex than watch the game.

■ 57 percent of men said they’re rooting for the Green Bay Packers.

■ 54 percent of women said they’ll be cheering for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Obviously, that’s all relevant stuff. Or, at the very least, entertaining stuff. Or maybe just stuff.

Go stuff! Go Saints! Happy Super Bowl.

Steelers C Pouncey ruled out for Super Bowl DALLAS — Maurkice Pouncey is sidelined for the Super Bowl.

The Pittsburgh Steelers center has a high left-ankle sprain that has kept him out of practice since he was injured nearly two weeks ago in the AFC championship game. Now, the rookie Pro Bowl selection will miss the big game against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

“He’s out,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin told a pool reporter Friday after the team completed its final full practice indoors at TCU. Backup Doug Legursky will play in his place in what will be his first NFL start as a center.

Signed as an undrafted free agent out of Marshall in 2008, Legursky started four games at guard earlier this season.

Defensive end Aaron Smith also is out. He’s been sidelined since Oct. 24 due to a torn triceps muscle and has been limited in practice.

The Packers’ main concern is outside linebacker Erik Walden, who was listed as questionable because of an ankle injury.

Wide receiver Donald Driver tweaked his quadriceps this week and has been limited in practice, but Packers coach Mike McCarthy said earlier Friday that Driver is expected to play. He is listed as probable.

Holdovers include wide receivers Tim Brown, Cris Carter and Andre Reed; tight end Shannon Sharpe; center Dermontti Dawson; defensive ends Richard Dent, Chris Doleman and Charles Haley; defensive tackle Cortez Kennedy; senior nominees Chris Hanburger and Les Richter, both linebackers; and NFL Films founder Ed Sabol as a contributor.

SUNFLOWER LEAGUE SWIM MEET

Free State stockpiles Su-Par Bowl Weekend swimmers for finals Pro-Line Iron Sets 1

#

THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY & SUNDAY Selected Men’s & Women’s Complete Golf Sets

By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

On the surface, the first day of the Sunflower League swimming meet doesn’t mean much. No team points are awarded. No league titles are earned.

But in reality, Friday’s jockeying for seeding for today’s finals is very important to how both Lawrence High and Free State High finish in the team standings.

Take Free State’s Ethan Fisher. He finished fifth in the 200 freestyle, but called it a “horrible” race. He swam a 1:54.53, about three seconds slower than his fastest time of the season.

“I’m looking forward to really coming back hard in the finals and getting first,” Fisher said.

Free State’s Nolan Frank finished sixth in the race. That means that Free State will have two swimmers in today’s six-swimmer 200 freestyle finals.

If either Fisher or Frank would have finished seventh or worse, they wouldn’t have been capable to gain more points than are slotted to their seeds. Swimmers in the finals automatically earn more points than swimmers in the consolation finals.

Frank said that coach Annette McDonald tells her team all the time that numbers win, meaning that the teams with the most swimmers in finals often end up placing well at the end of the meet.

Swimmers also tend to swim better times amid the best competition.

“It’s kind of exciting when

FSHS (8-6) went to the half with a 26-21 lead and flattened the Lancers by running what looked like a clinic in the third quarter.

The Firebirds turned up the intensity on their man-to-man pressure and swarmed entry passes to the post, essentially turning the quarter into a 17-6 run littered with selfless plays.

“You could tell they were down,” Heline said. “And we just kept playing hard, and things kept working better for us.”

FSHS players alertly and actively used their hands all night; the Firebirds tallied five steals in the quarter and 15 in the game.

“I thought defensively, that’s the sharpest we’ve been all year,” Law said.

Law said the Firebirds have yet to fire on all cylinders offensively, but he was encouraged with how they distributed the ball.

Seven Firebirds tallied at least one steal and one assist, including Self, Brett Frantz (seven points) and Shawn Knighton (four points).

“If things aren’t rolling for you, you can step up in other areas,” Watson said.

FREE STATE FRESHMAN KYLE YODER TAKES A BREATH in the 200-yard medley relay on Friday in the Sunflower League prelims. Free State will aim for a Sunflower League title today at Lawrence High. you’re in the fastest heat because you push yourself,” McDonald said.

Frank, who is swimming in his fourth and final league meet, said he enjoyed the atmosphere. The bleachers next to the pool were filled with passionate swimming fans.

“This is one of my favorite meets of the year because everyone gets to see how competitive swimming can get,” Frank said.

Since Lawrence High is hosting this season’s meet, LHS coach Kent McDonald, Annette’s husband, is responsible for setting everything up.

“Luckily it’s only every 12 years,” McDonald said.

He hopes his team can finish in the top six and said the Lions are battling with Shawnee Mission North. The Indians have beaten the Lions

at two separate meets this season, but it’s been very close.

The Firebirds’ goals are a bit higher — they’re aiming for a top-three finish.

The Sunflower League meet is often a preview of the state meet, considering the high quality of teams at the top of the league.

“If we’re top three here, we’re pretty much top three at state,” Fisher said.

Frank said that seeing the other quality teams in the state, such as Shawnee Mission East and Olathe East, serves as good motivation for the two before state.

“This year, we’re right with them,” Frank said.

The diving portion of the meet starts at 8:30 this morning. Swimming will start at 1 p.m. ● Results on page 7B

Neither coach Bryan Duncan nor the Firebirds could quite place it, but the typical bounce in their step wasn’t there.

The Firebirds (7-7) picked a bad night to come out flat, because Shawnee Mission East was ready to play.

The Lancers ran to an early lead, and the Firebirds never really came close in a setback at FSHS. “I’m still a little shellshocked,” Duncan said. “We just didn’t look like we wanted to be out here tonight, and I’m not sure why.”

Junior Lynn Robinson had the only three points for the Firebirds in the period, in which they were a chilly 1-for16 shooting.

“They were making everything, and (we didn’t) make anything,” Robinson said. “It’s frustrating and didn’t help us.

We weren’t able to get up after that.”

FSHS trailed, 30-15, at the half after shooting only 20 percent from the field.

Still, even as the Firebirds — led by Kennedy Kirkpatrick’s 14 points and six rebounds and 11 points from Robinson — went on an 8-2 run to begin the third quarter, they couldn’t get any closer than nine points.

“He’s really been playing well lately,” Lewis said. “He’s really starting to figure out how good he can be.”

And the Vikings didn’t do a good job containing Pritchard, either. His 19 points gave him the most for the Lions. The Vikings were led by junior Mitch Witter’s 24 points and nine rebounds.

The Lions are also starting to figure out how to play their 1-2-2 half-court trap, introduced during the Capital City Classic in Topeka. Pritchard and Buffalomeat love the

defense because it creates fast-break opportunities.

Senior Jake Johnson was named Winter Court King before the game, only adding to the Lions’ happiness afterward.

“He’s a guy you look forward to seeing at 3:30 every day,” Lewis said of Johnson.

Overall, it was a bounceback kind of night for the Lions, who face a difficult February schedule filled with road games in historically tough environments. The Lions will travel to Shawnee Mission East on Tuesday and Olathe East on Friday.

Bedore: Recalling KU-NU matchups

Confident NU to host Kansas CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

thinking they won’t be intimidated by the historic arena only to discover otherwise once they’re running up and down the floor.

In January, Nebraska (15-6, 3-4) did not appear to be fazed in Lawrence. Nebraska’s ability to perform so well in such a hostile setting should have the Huskers prepared for today’s rematch.

“The thing about the Nebraska players is, I think they probably think they can beat us,” Self said. “I think they came in here believing they could beat us and came very, very close to doing so.

Their players should be as confident as they’ve ever been playing us, and our players have to respect that.”

Today’s game will represent the f inal meeting between KU and Nebraska as members of the same conference, something that Nebraska fans might consider to be good news. Since the inception of the Big 12 in 1997, KU owns a 30-3 record against the Cornhuskers. Included in that record is a stretch of 16 straight victories, dating back to the 2004 season. Overall, KU leads the series 169-71, but the Jayhawks aren’t expecting those numbers to intimidate the Huskers today.

“I don’t think they’ve backed down to any of their competition,” Reed said. “I don’t think that Nebraska looks at playing Kansas and is scared or anything like that.

They’re going to be ready to play, and it’s definitely going to be a tough game for us.”

Added Morris: “I found out that they haven’t lost at home, and it’s definitely going to be a great environment. Their fans are gonna be amped and

into it, and hopefully the fans that we have there will be amped and into it. It’s going to be a great game, and it’s gonna be a great test for us.”

Senior guard Lance Jeter leads Nebraska in scoring at 10.9 points per game, just ahead of senior center Jorge Brian Diaz, who averages 10.5 ppg. Diaz is shooting 55.4 percent from the field, averages 4.5 rebounds per game and is second on the team with 22 blocked shots. Jeter leads NU with 91 assists and 41 steals.

Junior guard Toney McCray is next in scoring at 7.0 ppg.

“They may not score a lot of points, as far as having one guy go out and get 25 or whatever,” Self said. “They have balance, where a bunch of guys score more than eight, kind of like we had in ’08, to be honest with you. Our leading scorer averaged 13, but it could be a different guy (every night).”

Most nights, that’s Jeter, who scored 13 points on 5-of10 shooting against the Jayhawks in January.

“It seems like to me, as he goes, so go the Huskers,” Self said of Jeter.

The Jayhawks did not seem too sentimental about traveling to Lincoln, Neb., for the final time, but Self did address the future of the series. Asked if he could envision playing the Cornhuskers as part of the nonconference schedule somewhere down the road, Self said: “I don’t know. It’d probably be fine with Doc, and it’d be fine with me. But I don’t see it happening in the near future. If anything, I think we should play Colorado because, to me, Colorado gives our fans in the western part of the state a chance to be a semi-home game. I think the Colorado game would probably benefit the masses more.”

Jayhawks’ swimming ahead of Iowa State J-W Staff Reports

Senior captain Joy Bunting won two events, and the Kansas University swimming and diving team led Iowa State, 116-34, after the first day of a two-day dual Friday at Robinson Natatorium.

The Jayhawks captured each of the first eight events Friday. The meet will conclude at 10 a.m. today at Robinson.

KU also celebrated its five seniors (Bunting, Iuliia Kuzhil, Amanda Maez, Alyssa Potter and Brittany Potter) with a pre-dual ceremony for Senior Day. “I thought we did really well,” Kansas coach Clark Campbell said. “The meet is all about the seniors, so we had a lot of energy and emotion coming into the meet. We performed well, but we’re only halfway through it. This

Key injuries having impact in college game

By Aaron Beard Associated Press Basketball Writer

Injuries have changed the landscape of college basketball as players sitting on the bench in street clothes have had as big of an impact as players on the court.

Injuries can also do more than just deplete depth, they can completely change the way teams play the game — as they have for reigning national champion Duke.

Here’s a look at six injuries — or in some cases, sets of injuries — that have had the biggest impact on college basketball this season.

right big toe. Irving averaged 17 points, but more importantly, was the trigger of the Blue Devils’ up-tempo offense and transition game.

Doctors were set to remove Irving’s cast Friday, but Krzyzewski has said he’s focused on Irving’s long-term recovery and hasn’t sounded overly optimistic about his return.

Robbie Hummel, Purdue The Boilermakers reached No. 3 last season before the 6foot-8 forward who was the team’s second-leading scorer and rebounder suffered a torn right anterior cruciate ligament. His return figured to make Matt Painter’s squad a Final Four contender. In the first preseason practice, the senior landed awkwardly when he went for a block and heard a familiar pop as the same knee gave out again.

Kyrie Irving, Duke At first glance, it seemed Irving had merely tweaked an ankle or had a cramp when he came up limping late in Duke’s eighth game. Days later, coach Mike Krzyzewski said the star freshman point guard was out indefinitely — and maybe the Abdul Gaddy, Washington season — due to an injured The point guard ranked No.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -WORLD

2 in his class behind John Wall was showing improvement for the 20th-ranked Huskies after a disappointing freshman season. But he suffered a torn left ACL in practice during a January scrimmage after staring the first 13 games. The 6-foot-3 sophomore was averaging 8.5 points and 3.8 assists while showing improved command of the offense.

Coach Lorenzo Romar felt he had enough depth with leading scorer Isaiah Thomas and Venoy Overton, but Gaddy was “probably the best at just settling us down and getting us in the offense.”

Al Nolen, Minnesota The senior guard went down with a broken right foot against Michigan on Jan. 22, an injury that required surgery to place a pin in the foot.

Dorenzo Hudson, J.T. Thompson and Allan Chaney, Virginia Tech Thompson, a senior sixth

man, tore his left ACL in preseason. Chaney has yet to play after transferring from Florida and is out indefinitely as he recovers from a viral infection in his heart. Then Hudson — a two-year starting guard who averaged about 15 points last year — played just nine games before having season-ending surgery on a foot injury. That leaves a lot of pressure on Malcolm Delaney and Jeff Allen as the Hokies try to fight their way out of the jumbled middle of the ACC standings.

Maurice Creek and Christian Watford, Indiana First Creek — a 6-5 guard — was sidelined last month due to a stress fracture in his right kneecap that required seasonending surgery.

Then, on Tuesday, coach Tom Crean said Watford — a 6-9 forward averaging a teambest 17 points and 5.8 rebounds — was out indefinitely after having surgery on a broken left hand.

It marked KU’s fifth loss in its last six trips to Lincoln.

Times have changed. KU has won six in a row in Devaney entering today’s series finale. ● Feb. 24, 2002: KU’s Brett Ballard decided to pass to a freshman — Keith Langford — instead of a senior — Jeff Boschee — with the game on the line.

Langford hit a three with 33 seconds left to give KU an 88-87 Big 12-title-clinching victory with two games still left on the schedule.

Drew Gooden rebounded a last-second miss by John Turek and heaved the ball high in the air as KU, which overcame a 12-point secondhalf deficit, celebrated winning the regular-season title.

The Jayhawks went undefeated in the Big 12 that season. ● Jan. 30, 2007: KU led 39-6 and 43-8 en route to a 76-56 victory over the shellshocked Huskers and their stunned-silent fans. I’ve never seen a team get off to such a sizzling start on the road.

I’m sure plenty of KU fans, who make the three-hour drive to Lincoln every year,

will miss the KU-NU series.

A majority of those fans/autograph seekers stick around after the game to form a human tunnel outside the Jayhawk locker room.

Personally, I won’t miss the drive up and back on I75, having twice been ticketed returning from Huskerland.

The second time, I was going pretty fast, and I think the police officer was tempted to throw me in the hoosegow.

However, the J-W’s Tom Keegan reminded the lovable man in blue that sometimes in strange rental cars you lose track of how fast you are going. That is true when you really think about it.

Another crisis averted, and on to the next road trip.

It’s been mighty cold — and sometimes there’s been snow coming and going — but I’ve not yet been caught in a whiteout heading up to a KU-NU basketball game.

Now the old Big Eight Indoor track meet? That blizzard is another story for another day. Let’s just say it’s not fun changing a flat tire with zero visibility in subzero temperatures. About as much fun as enduring a case of food poisoning.

KU women look to ‘heal’ vs. ‘Horns

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Most freshmen don’t have the kind of advantage that Kansas University guard Keena Mays will take into today’s game at Texas.

Although Mays, a 5-foot-7 guard from Arlington, Texas, has not played at UT as a member of the Jayhawks, she does have some experience playing on the Longhorns’ home floor.

During both her junior and senior years of high school, Mays’ team — Mansfield Timberview High — KANSAS reached the state title VS. TEXAS game and finished the When: 2 p.m. season play- today ing on the Where: Austin, burntTexas orange floor TV: None in Austin. It won’t be Records: KU is 15exactly the 7 overall, 2-6 in same experi- Big 12; UT is 14-7, ence at 2 p.m. 3-4 today, but Mays said her past experience at the arena has helped her prepare, and she’s not intimidated by the challenge ahead.

“Not really,” she said. “I’ve played on the court before, and I know their team a little bit, so I’m just excited.”

So how did Mays and her team fare during the two state title games there?

“I did pretty good,” she said.

“We lost my junior year, but we won last year.”

Winning will be the goal for Kansas today, and, quite frankly, it’s something Bonnie Henrickson’s team has struggled with in recent weeks.

KU’s 81-53 victory against Colorado on Wednesday night snapped a five-game losing skid and helped pull the Jayhawks to 15-7 overall and 2-6 in Big 12 play. The idea now, Henrickson said, is to start a streak that moves in the opposite direction.

“Like we’ve said all year, the most important game prior to this one was this one, and now the most important game of

the year will be down in Austin,” Henrickson said after Wednesday’s victory. “We’ve gotta find a way to win to just feel better about ourselves.”

Texas enters today’s game at 14-7 overall and 3-4 in the conference. UT owns an 8-3 advantage at home, but is just 1-2 in Big 12 games played in Austin.

Four players average in double figures, led by freshman Chassidy Fussell, who scores 17.8 points per game.

Fussell also leads the Longhorns in three-point shooting, hitting 42 of 109 three-pointers (39 percent) on the season.

She also rips down 5. 3 rebounds per game.

Senior Kathleen Nash (15.1) and juniors Ashleigh Fontenette (12.4) and Yvonne Anderson (10.5) round out UT’s leading scorers.

The last time these two teams locked up, No. 14 Texas topped Kansas, 85-82, in double overtime in Lawrence.

Then-freshman guard Monica Engelman (currently second on the team in scoring at 12.4 points per game) drained a game-tying three-pointer with 15 seconds remaining to send it to OT. Engelman finished with 22 points and six assists, and forward Carolyn Davis (who leads KU with 17.6 ppg) led all scorers with 29 points and 14 rebounds.

While that one represented season highlights for both Jayhawks, the past is of little concern to them now. Their focus is on the future and finding a way to erase the memories of their recent five-game losing skid.

“It’s just like an open sore, and we finally got a little bit of a Band-Aid on it,” Henrickson said. “So now we need to get this sucker to heal.”

BRIEFLY KU-OU baseball to be featured on FSN IRVING, TEXAS — The Big 12 Conference announced its 2011 college baseball television schedule on Fox Sports Net on Friday.

Six games will be featured in the package, including the Kansas University-Oklahoma game in Norman, Okla., on Saturday, May 7. First pitch is set for 2 p.m. It will mark the 22nd televised game for the Jayhawks since the 2005 season.

Veritas sweeps Flint Hills

AREA HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

Tongie gets first KVL win ————

Chieftains take two from K.C. Piper

By Benton Smith basmith@theworldco.info

TONGANOXIE — Led by a virtuoso outing from junior center Dane Erickson, the Tonganoxie High boys basketball team defeated Kansas City Piper, 70-66, Friday night for its first Kaw Valley League win of the season.

The Chieftains’ 6-foot-5 pivot succeeded on all 13 of his field-goal attempts and went 4-for-5 from the free-throw line to finish with 30 points in a tight, much-needed victory.

THS coach Shawn Phillips was impressed with Erickson’s stat line and didn’t realize until after the win that the junior was perfect from the floor.

Phillips said Tonganoxie (6-6 overall, 1-5 KVL) wanted to exploit the Pirates’ lack of interior size by feeding the big man.

“When we were patient, he got layup opportunities,” the coach said. “He’s good at finishing around the rim, and he finished every single one of them. That’s a really good night. I don’t know if I’ve ever had a kid shoot that many shots and make them all.”

The Chieftains needed each of Erickson’s buckets, because P iper (3-10, 1-6) made a late push in the fourth quarter, as Tonganoxie struggled at the free-throw line, hitting just eight of 16 attempts.

Senior Dylan Scates scored 13 points off the bench for Tonganoxie,.

FREE STATE SENIOR DIEGO GONZALEZ SIGNS HIS LETTER OF INTENT to play for Western Illinois. Gonzalez held his signing ceremony Friday at FSHS.

Div. I letter caps Firebird’s growth

By Ben Ward Journal-World Sports Writer

Talent has never been an issue for Free State High senior Diego Gonzalez.

That much is clear from the standout soccer player’s accolades alone: two all-state honors, four varsity letters and an FSHS-record 47 career goals, to name a only a few.

After signing his national letter of intent to play with Western Illinois, Gonzalez should become only the third Firebird to play Div. I men’s soccer and the first to sign straight out of high school.

Jason Pendleton — who coached both FSHS soccer teams before stepping down to take a similar position at Blue Valley Southwest last year — recounted the first time he saw Gonzalez play.

Gonzalez, who had just moved to the United States from Argentina, was on an opposing club team to the one Pendleton was coaching at the time.

Even at a young age, Gonzalez’s dynamic abilities on the field were evident: He could dribble, he could shoot; he was a special talent.

“Not just because he was Argentinean,” Pendleton quipped.

But Gonzalez’s temper obscured his gifts on the field.

He shouted at everyone, from officials to teammates, until his own coach was forced to kick him off the field.

Gonzalez had never played organized soccer in Argentina, instead playing in rough, unregulated games in gym class.

“We were all so passionate and ended up always fighting,” Gonzalez said.

It’s no surprise, then, that Gonzalez wasn’t exactly easy to coach back in those days.

Any criticism, be it of his play, his work ethic, or his teamwork, were taken as personal attacks.

It didn’t stop Pendleton’s desire to coach Gonzalez at Free State, though, where he ended up choosing to attend over Lawrence High.

“I think he knew it would be a strict, disciplinarian sort of environment that would make him a better player,” Pendleton said. “And maybe indirectly a better person along the way.”

At a celebration Friday afternoon commemorating Gonzalez’s signing with Western Illinois, the FSHS library was packed with friends, teammates, coaches and family members.

“It’s been a joy to watch over the years,” FSHS coach Kelly Barah said, “how a little kid with so many emotions could grow.”

EUDORA — Kristen Finger scored 10 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, and Veritas Christian’s girls basketball team held off Flint Hills Christian, 38-26, on Friday at the Eudora Community Center.

The Eagles (8-8) have won three straight games. Veritas has forced more than 30 turnovers in each of those three games. The Eagles forced Flint Hills into 32 turnovers on Friday.

“That’s what we’ve been wanting to do,” Veritas coach Kevin Shelton said. “That’s our plan, the full-court press.

We’ve really started playing better lately. I’m just so encouraged with these three straight wins.”

Ellen Phillips chipped in nine points, while Madison Bennett had eight.

Veritas will travel to Midland Adventist on Monday.

Veritas 38, Flint Hills Christian 26 Flint Hills 6 7 7 6 — 26 Veritas 12 10 10 6 — 38 Flint Hills — Jamie Steele 6, Sarah Dodge 5, Courtney Cranford 3, Sarah Dempster 4, Amber Seymour 3, Lena Fox 5.

Veritas — Caysi Gatts 1, Shereen Fattaahi 2, Madison Bennett 8, Kayli Farley 6, Ellen Phillips 9, Kristen Finger 10, Sarah McDermott 2.

Veritas boys 48, Flint Hills Christian 23 EUDORA — Ethan Scott had 13 pionts and Ethan Kay 11 as Veritas completed its sweep of Flint Hills Christian.

“We shot the three really well,” Veritas coach Gary Hammer said. “We had seven threes, which is really good.

We had good defense by holding them to only 23 points.

Everyone got to play so it was a fun game.”

Veritas (13-4) will travel Tuesday to St. Marys.

Flint Hills 2 8 6 7 — 23 Veritas 10 16 10 12 — 48 Veritas — Jordan Rebman 2, Kelvin Rask 3, Nick Gardner 3, Nate Scott 6, Ethan Scott 15, Thomas Bachert 2, Ethan Kay 11, Elijah Penny 6.

Deng ‘disappointed’

by All-Star game snub

By K.C. Johnson Chicago Tribune

SAN FRANCISCO — Luol Deng alternated between philosophical and downright surprised that the Bulls were shut out in voting for All-Star reserves.

“We have bigger goals than All-Star,” Deng said Friday before practice at a downtown health club. “We have a lot of things to prove. I know it’s our first year doing so well and being up there with the elite teams. This shows the respect isn’t there yet.

“I have no doubt we’re going to work hard. And hopefully at the end of the season, we’ll get rewarded.”

The 34-14 Bulls weren’t rewarded in reserves voting

by Eastern Conference head coaches and will send only Derrick Rose, who was voted a starter by fans, to the Feb. 20 game in Los Angeles.

The 35-14 Heat had LeBron James and Dwyane Wade voted in by fans and Chris Bosh added as a reserve. The Eastern Conference-leading Celtics (37-11) have four reserves: Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo.

“I’m disappointed,” Deng said. “To go there and represent the team would’ve been great. It’s weird to me we only have one. All I can do is put it in the past. I really think I’m a step ahead of where I was last year, so my main thing is to keep going forward. There’s nothing I can do about it.

“But I’m surprised. As a team, I feel like we went through a lot with injuries. We had Carlos (Boozer) and

4-H NEWS The Meadowlark 4-H Club met Nov. 8 at Raintree Montessori School. The meeting began with members making tray favors for area senior citizens. Later, a game of musical chairs was enjoyed.

Roll call was answered by, “If you could spend a day with a famous person, who would it be and why?” After singing “She’ll Be Comin’ Round the Mountain,” the off icers’ reports were presented by the

treasurer, secretary, reporter, photographer, community leader and the leadership committees.

The club also met Dec. 5. at Plymouth Church Congregational for 4-H Sunday. Lunch followed at Buffalo Bob’s. A gift exchange was held in the Stained Glass Room. The members later enjoyed caroling, walking downtown, and attended the Bromelsick Christmas Party.

FCE NEWS Kanwaka FCE will meet at 1 p.m. Tuesday at the home of Aliene and David Bieber, 533 Lindley Drive. The lesson, “Vitamin D — Sunshine to Supplements,” will be given

the silence was comforting.

There didn’t seem to be anyone “leading” the group.

There were a few children amongst the adults. They were led away after about 10 minutes to hear a story in the next room.

Gruber As the silence “deepened,” a palpable vibration of “listening” was taking shape. After a half-hour, an elderly member recited a short Whittier poem. Things fell silent again.

At 11 a.m., at some unseen sign, people shook hands, saying “Good morning.”

There were a few announcements concerning a meeting of the Lawrence Coalition for

Peace and Justice, a demonstration in South Park protesting the wars, performance of a play about inclusiveness and a discussion on the 350-year history of peaceful war resistance by the Quakers.

I changed back into my previous form and filed my report to the mother ship.

The identity of this group, I communicated, seemed to be inclusive, intelligent, peaceful and sincere with a distinct lack of clergy. There was no apparent creed to adhere to and they seemed to genuinely appreciate each other’s company. I’m not sure what the “Quaking” was all about, although I suspect gentle ecstasy, subtle and joyous at the same time.

The people who aim to follow Jesus by serving, loving others Worship is a lifestyle. Something or someone you truly love or worship shows up in every inch of your being, every day. You love it. You want to share it. You want to introduce others to it.

But for too long we have been perfectly happy letting everyone of faith view church as a building, Cox institution or organization — a place where people can sit on the sidelines and consume until spiritually obese.

But as long as it adds to our attendance number and they drop a few bones in the offering bucket, we’ll coddle the

MEETINGS AND GATHERINGS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9B

A place of worship’s ‘identity’ is defined by its environment

The Rev. Matt Cox, pastor, EastLake Community Church, 2734 La. (South Junior High): The biggest factor in a place of worship’s identity is the people.

Church is actually not a building. It’s the body of people aiming to follow Jesus and serving and loving others.

Whatever combination of bricks and mortar that shelter or surround that group is inconsequential.

Of course, when we treat church merely like some building to attend and not a family to be a contributing part of, that one service on a Sunday becomes the focal point of where we “worship.”

But worship is so much larger than music or a 30- to 60minute teaching on a Sunday.

What is the biggest factor in a place of worship’s ‘identity’?

Charles Gruber, member, Oread Friends Meeting, 1146 Ore.: So my spaceship just happened to land at 1146 Ore. on a Sunday morning at 10 a.m.

My orders were to change into human form and join the group of people gathered and report back to base.

The sign outside read, “Oread Friends MeetingReligious Society of Friends (Quaker)-Welcoming, Open, Affirming.” I walked in to a very friendly small crowd that was settling into the pews and chairs. There was a small table in the center adorned with some lovely flowers. Also on the table was a Bible, a book entitled “A Call to Character,” a Quaker volume on “Faith and Practices” and a book called “Quaker Reader.”

Nobody was speaking and

CHARLOTTE TRITCH OF LAWRENCE HOLDS HER SON, MAX, the only male and youngest attendee at the Kappa Kappa Gamma Alumnae Association cookie exchange held Dec. 4 at Bella Sera. Sophomore members of Omega Chapter at Kansas University joined alumnae for the festivities. The women brought almost 200 pounds of food, which was donated to the Penn House food pantry.

IS

“me” circus and let everyone complain and form committees about unimportant things like the color of the carpet.

This is a direct contradiction to the organic, selfless family we see in the first churches in the book of Acts of the New Testament.

Although every Christian will admit the amazing things God has done for us personally and eternally, at some point we need to take a step of true spiritual depth and maturity that turns our identity of worship from “What can God do for me?” to “How can I love God and others, especially those who have yet to learn about Jesus?”

Accommodate friend to keep his hands out of ice bucket

Dear Phil: That is one solution. The other is to ask him why he doesn’t use the tongs.

Some people find them difficult to grasp. Your friend may have some arthritis and not want you to know. Try putting a serving spoon in the bucket and see if it makes a difference. The hosts could also bring out the ice bucket and fill everyone’s glass at the beginning of the dinner, precluding the need for your friend to stick his hands in it.

Dear Annie: Two months

I was absolutely stunned and hurt by her accusations. I explained that everything possible had been done to locate her, and that I did the best I could with the information I had at the time. I later learned that she called the funeral home and my friend’s apartment manager, blaming them, as well.

My friends tell me she probably feels guilty for not keeping in contact with her father and this is why she is lashing out. They say I shouldn’t anniesmailbox@creators.com blame myself, but I am heartago, a dear friend died. He had sick at the thought that pernamed me as his emergency haps I could have done more contact and had given me a in this situation. What do you copy of his living will. I knew he had two children, but they did not have a close relationship, and I had only a vague idea of their first names and where I thought they resided.

After his death, I did everything I could think of to find them. So did the hospital and funeral home. A search of my friend’s possessions turned up no information. The funeral director tried the sheriff’s office and the State Patrol. We all searched the Internet and came up with nothing.

Two days ago, I received an irate phone call from his daughter, who claimed she recently found out about her father’s death via the Internet.

She told me it was my responsibility to try to get in touch with her and accused me of having no morals.

Child actresses past and present meet in ‘Smooch’ Child actresses from two generations meet in the cable romantic comedy “Smooch” (8 p.m., Hallmark). Former “ER” star Kellie Martin was well known to viewers as a juvenile performer on “Life Goes On.” She’s joined here by the remarkably poised 11-year-old actress Kiernan Shipka, known to “Mad Men” viewers as Don’s troubled and precocious little girl, Sally Draper.

Part of a steady onslaught of romantic comedies leading up to Valentine’s Day, “Smooch” offers a whimsical riff on an old fairy tale. Shipka plays the matchmaking daughter of a widowed mother (Martin).

And she’s convinced she’s found mom a prince of a catch (Simon Kassianides, “Quantum of Solace”), who may have some amphibian relatives.

Normally I’m a tad concerned when actors of great promise end up in formulaic films. But given the grim nature of Sally Draper’s story, I’m happy for the young Shipka to broaden her range with some comic relief. ● Speaking of comic relief, the star of “Mike & Molly” gets a one-hour standup special “Billy Gardell: Halftime” (8 p.m., Comedy Central). The larger-than-life comic, who plays a cop but acts like a standup comic on his CBS sitcom, performs from his hometown of Pittsburgh.

He offers rants and zingers about marriage, parenting, technology and the sudden, insistent presence of hand-sanitizers.

Today’s highlights ● Catch a “Top Gear” (noon, through 5 a.m., Monday, BBC America) marathon. ● The gang returns in the 2007 sequel “Shrek the Third” (8 p.m., ABC), a film welcomed by fans of the franchise but criticized for treading water and recycling gags. ● Edgar Ramirez stars in the three-part Golden Globe-winning French-American miniseries “Carlos” (7 p.m. Sundance), airing in its entirety tonight. ● A road trip gets creepy when crows force a car off a road and into a cornfield in the 2010 shocker “Husk” (8 p.m., SyFy). ● Scheduled on two episodes of “48 Hours Mystery” (CBS), murder claims a mother (8 p.m.), and a celebrity dog trainer (9 p.m.). ● Dana Carvey hosts “Saturday Night Live” (10:30 p.m., NBC), featuring musical guest Linkin Park.

Cult choice Colin Firth appears to be the safe bet for this year’s best actor Oscar for the “King’s Speech,” an award some say he should have won for the 2009 drama “A Single Man” (8 p.m., Showtime), directed by Tom Ford and adapted from a novel by Christopher Isherwood.

SOUNDS FAMILIAR by Henry Quarters

Dear Sad: We think your friends are right. You did nothing wrong, and the girl undoubtedly feels guilty. It’s easier for her to blame others than recognize that her father didn’t care if she knew about his death. Your job was to attempt to find the children, and you fulfilled your duty honorably. Our condolences on your loss.

Dear Annie: We live in a community made up mostly of retired couples who rotate having dinner get-togethers. One of the men in our group seems unable to keep his hands out of the ice bucket. His usual routine is to remove the ice tongs, stir the ice around with his hand and then lift some into his wife’s glass and his own.

We’ve told him that this is unsanitary, but it seems to go over his head. When filling my glass after him, I will often go to the refrigerator to get ice, and he always says, “There’s still ice in the bucket.”

His latest procedure is to announce to the whole room that he washed his hands before coming over. Then he dives into the ice bucket. Are we expecting too much? Two ice buckets, one for him and one for everyone else? — Phil from Philly

Storm dashes some Super Bowl plans 6 hurt when ice falls from stadium

By Schuyler Dixon Associated Press Writer

David Holloway/Animal Planet Photo

PRODUCER ANDREW SCHECHTER takes on the role of referee as he appears on the field with various puppies in this undated photo released by Animal Planet for “Puppy Bowl VII,” airing Sunday at 2 p.m. CST on Animal Planet.

Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl becomes big event

By David Bauder

“

It’s my job to keep a clean game — clean in — On Sunday, every sense of the word.”

Associated Press Writer

N EW Y O R K competitors will race around the field, score touchdowns, slam into each other and bark at their opponents when things get a little rough.

Yes, it’s Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl.

The network’s annual cutea-thon started seven years ago to entice television viewers bored with endless Super Bowl pregame shows and has become one of Animal Planet’s most popular events. The idea is simple: Take a bunch of adorable puppies and film them running around, sniffing and wrestling with each other for two hours.

All together now: Aww. The original inspiration was the Yule Log, a popular Christmas broadcast in the New York City market that airs a loop of wood burning in a fireplace with a holiday music soundtrack.

“Somebody said to me, ‘Babies and puppies, they tear open your heart,’” said Marjorie Kaplan, president and general manager of Animal Planet. “There is just something about how excruciatingly cute they are.”

The Puppy Bowl has a football theme, with the dogs scoring “touchdowns” if they cross a goal line with a chew toy. There’s no such thing as going too far in this sport, which has a “blimp” staffed by hamsters, chickens as cheerleaders and a musical halftime show starring cats.

The event, which runs for two hours and starts at 2 p.m.

CST, averaged nearly 1.1 million viewers last year for Animal Planet, the Nielsen Co. said. That’s nearly twice what the network averages in prime time.

It’s become big enough that it even has product placement, with a car company paying for the right to have its vehicle drive the border terriers, beagles, pugs, spaniels and Schnauzers out onto the field, Kaplan said.

— Andrew Schechter, a producer of the show who serves as the on-air puppy referee. Schechter is also responsible for mopping up after the untrained competitors.

“It’s like eye candy,” said Andrew Schechter, a producer of the show who serves as the on-air puppy referee. “To know Puppy Bowl is to love it.”

Schechter holds pups up for adulation when they score touchdowns and calls puppy penalties. As with most referees, there’s no glamour in the job; Schechter is also responsible for mopping up after the untrained competitors.

“It’s my job to keep a clean game — clean in every sense of the word,” he said.

A total of 47 pups participated in this year’s Bowl, competing for the MVP Award, or Most Valuable Pup. Basically, the cutest dog wins.

Animal Planet casts the show, which was filmed last fall in the New York area, with the help of an animal adoption agency. Participating dogs are usually available for adoption, although most from this year’s show already have homes. They’re often snapped up because agencies advertise the dogs as “stars” of Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl, Schechter said.

Schechter usually attends Puppy Bowl parties — seriously — to watch the event every year. What’s most fun for him is seeing people react to the show, he said.

“I don’t think anyone here thought it would become a cultural phenomenon,” Kaplan said.

Animal Planet will repeat the Puppy Bowl a couple of times on Super Bowl night, ensuring constant canine action if the real football players start dogging it and viewers search for alternatives.

Zuckerberg dad: Mark got computer exposure young N E W Y O R K ( A P ) — Mark Zuckerberg’s father said in a radio interview Friday that an early exposure to computers inspired his son’s interest in technology, and he encouraged parents to support their children’s strengths and passions with a balance of “work and play.”

“My kids all grew up around the office and were all exposed to computers,” said Dr. Edward Zuckerberg, a dentist. “There are advantages to being exposed to computers early on. That certainly enriched Mark’s interest in technology.”

Zuckerberg said he computerized his offices in 1985.

His son Mark Zuckerberg, cofounder and CEO of Facebook, was born in 1984 and was raised in the house where his father’s dental offices are located in Dobbs Ferry, N.Y., in suburban Westchester.

The dentist spoke for an hour on Westchester station WVOX in an interview with Paul Feiner, supervisor of Greenburgh. Dobbs Ferry is a village in the town of Greenburgh.

The dentist said his own computer science background was “limited” — he majored in biology in college — but he said he’s “always been technologically oriented in the office” and “always had the latest high-tech toys,” including an early Atari 800.

“It came with a disk for programming,” he said. “I thought Mark might be interested and I imparted that knowledge to him. From there it took off.”

He said Mark got a book on programming, but “ultimately his ability to program was self-taught.”

Feiner and a number of callers to the live radio program asked Zuckerberg for advice on parenting.

“Probably the best thing I can say is something that my wife and I have always believed in,” he said. “Rather than impose upon your kids or try and steer their lives in a certain direction, to recognize what their strengths are and support their strengths and support the development of the things they’re passionate about.”

ARLINGTON , T EXAS — Runways too snowy to receive airliners packed with football fans. Sidewalks too icy for cowboy boots. Temperatures too cold to distinguish Dallas from Pittsburgh or Green Bay. Just two days before the Super Bowl, a fresh blast of snow and ice canceled hundreds of flights, transformed highways into ribbons of white and caused dangerous sheets of ice to fall from Cowboys Stadium, sending at least six people to the hospital. It was enough to turn the biggest week in American sports into a Super Mess.

The six people hurt Friday were private contractors who had been hired by the NFL to prepare the stadium for the game. One man was hit in the head, another in the shoulder.

None of the injuries was considered life-threatening.

Most stadium entrances were closed as a precaution.

Officials raised the temperature inside the arena in an attempt to melt any remaining ice.

The Dallas-Fort Worth area received as much as 5 inches of snow overnight, and by Friday morning downtown Dallas hotels were selling ski hats and scarves alongside cowboy hats. A winter storm warning was issued for suburban Arlington, home of the $1.3 billion stadium where the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers are to play Sunday.

“It looks like, ‘Oh, no, I’m back in Canada,’” said Sammy

WORKERS TRY TO CLEAR A SIDEWALK near the Dallas Convention Center in front of a Super Bowl XLV logo after a morning snowstorm on Friday in Dallas. The Green Bay Packers meet the Pittsburgh Steelers in NFL football’s Super Bowl on Sunday in Arlington, Texas.

Sandu, a 32-year-old property developer from Kelowna, British Columbia. “It’s just pouring down snow. Are we still at home, or have we left?

We didn’t drink that much last night, did we?”

Forecasters expected game day to be mostly sunny, with highs in the 40s, which would probably not be warm enough to melt all the snow and ice.

Sandu made it to Dallas with his father Thursday, but other members of their party weren’t so lucky. His brother still hoped to arrive from Miami in time for the game, but a friend abandoned the trip after a flight from Vancouver was canceled.

Like much of the region, airlines were struggling to recover from a massive blizzard earlier in the week that brought up to 2 feet of snow and bitter cold temperatures to as much as half the nation.

More than 300 arriving

flights were canceled at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, a hub for American Airlines. The city’s smaller airport, Love Field, was closed before dawn because of snow on the runways, but it reopened by noon. Love is home to Southwest Airlines.

Andy Williams, a 51-yearold attorney from Grafton, Wis., said he was frustrated to find his American flight from Milwaukee delayed for about five hours. He was already planning ahead for the worstcase scenario.

“If this flight gets canceled, I’ll start driving down tonight,” he said. “Clearly it’s not my first choice but, at least you’re in control of your own destiny at that point.”

But the chilly temperatures were not expected to faze the teams competing in the real event, nor their hardy fans, who are used to cooler climes. The temperature in

Dallas on Friday stood at 20 — the same as Pittsburgh.

Green Bay was slightly colder at 17.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said the cold snap didn’t bother his team.

“We’re kind of used to inclement weather,” Tomlin said. “At least from my perspective, it hasn’t changed how we’ve worked at all.”

Asked if the weather could affect future Super Bowl bids, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said the conditions this year have been exceptional.

“We’ve had a winter to remember. Some would say to forget,” Goodell said. “It’s going to be a great weekend for us, and the weather’s getting better.”

The Super Bowl is scheduled to be played in Indianapolis next year and in the open-air New Meadowlands stadium in New Jersey in 2014.

With no room to put snow, waterways beckon

By Jay Lindsay

A MOUNTAIN OF SNOW TOWERS over the back parking lot Tuesday at The Loop shopping center in Methuen, Mass. With snow piling up along the East Coast, cities are debating whether to dump some of it into waterways.

Associated Press Writer

BOSTON — Imagine the East Coast’s largest cities mixing a brew of salt, motor oil, trash and grocery carts and dumping it into rivers and harbors.

It’s allowed in emergency situations, and some officials staring at massive snow mountains in densely populated areas of the winter-walloped Northeast say that time is now, even as others warn dumping snow in water comes with big problems.

“There’s a lot of stuff in this snow that if I isolated it and threw it in the river, you’d have me arrested,” said John Lipscomb of the New Yorkbased environmental group Riverkeeper.

Snow from the East Coast’s insistent winter is being plowed into banks that are narrowing roads and highway ramps like hardening arteries, blocking drivers’ sight lines, and forcing schoolchildren to break paths like cattle as they walk down buried sidewalks. In a normal winter, the snow melts on a good day or is carted off to designated dumps where it eventually filters its pollutants through the earth or is treated before ending up in sewers.

This is not a normal winter.

Many East Coast cities, including Boston, Hartford, Conn., and New York are on their way to setting seasonal snowfall records, and the extra snow means extra road salt and human refuse that gets swept up by plows.

The federal Environmental Protection Agency doesn’t directly regulate dumping snow but recommends against dumping it in water. It also urges state and local governments to include snow disposal restrictions in storm water management plans.

Some states and municipalities restrict dumping snow into waterways out of fear of harming water life and polluting drinking water. Massachusetts is one of them.

Even so, state Sen. Jack Hart has called for a “Boston snow party,” with snow being poured into Boston Harbor like tea was long ago. Despite the state’s long battle to clean up the once-notoriously polluted nook of Massachusetts Bay, he’s getting support from unlikely allies.

Mo. governor orders state to help plow local roads JEFFERSON CITY, MO. (AP) — With most of Missouri’s interstates and highways clear of snow, Gov. Jay Nixon ordered state workers on Friday to help counties plow local roads.

The storm that hit Missouri earlier this week dumped up to 21 inches of snow in some parts of the state and freezing rain in other areas. Even with local governments sending out their plows, hundreds of local roads remained covered with feet of snow four days later.

The Missouri Department of Transportation usuBruce Berman of the group Save the Harbor, Save the Bay said that he normally wouldn’t support such dumping, but that high snow banks are making it dangerous to just move around Boston, and that the deep and active harbor can handle it.

“When there’s a compelling reason — and believe me, these storms have given us a compelling reason — to snow dump, I support it,” Berman said.

But Boston has yet to seek to dump its snow in water. It has found room for nearly 71 inches of snow this year, about 50 inches more than it usually gets by this time of year, according to the National Weather Service. New York has seen about 58 inches; typically it has gotten 12 by now.

ally only clears interstates and state and federal highways, but Nixon said he was taking “an unprecedented action” and ordering the department to help plow roads in 44 counties that had received record snowfalls.

“Many Missouri counties and cities need our help,” Nixon said. “We’ll do everything we can to return road conditions to normal, so vital health care, education and commerce can resume throughout Missouri.”

Many small towns have no way to plow their streets, with just a few hundred peoThe most heavily developed section of Portland, Maine, is on a peninsula, and its main snow depository is packed full after about 52 inches of snow this winter.

But city spokeswoman Nicole Clegg said it has enough nearby alternatives to avoid dumping it in nearby Casco Bay, though it would have considered it a few years ago.

“People started discussing the environmental consequences of putting the snow in Casco Bay,” she said. “It just didn’t make sense.”

In Philadelphia, excess snow is piled onto a city lot because state environmental rules prohibit dumping in water, said city spokesman Mark McDonald. But last year, a snow-clearing crew

ple and no municipal workers, said Richard Sheets, deputy director of the Missouri Municipal League.

Some communities have hired private contractors to do the job, but Sheets said paying for contractors and road salt will be difficult when local budgets are already thin.

“They have to have a balanced budget, so they’re going to have to take it out of something else,” Sheets said. “They’re really struggling because they might not have the equipment or the personnel for something like this.” was caught dumping snow in the Schuylkill River and ordered to stop after someone posted a picture of it online.

The hazards of too much snow mixing with a lot of humanity were well evidenced by a blizzard that paralyzed New York after Christmas. Many pedestrians simply gave up trying to use the sidewalks, instead walking down the middle of partially plowed streets. Uncollected trash piled up for days.

Ed Coletta of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection cautioned that besides the junk that ends up in snow piles — everything from common trash to grocery carts — it can freeze in large chunks and threaten boat traffic.
