Awarded since 1950, it honors “an American journalist who exemplifies William Allen White’s ideals in service to his profession and his community.” Other journalists who’ve been chosen for the honor include Jim Lehrer, Bernard Shaw and Bob Woodward.

Crowley engaged the audience at the Kansas Union

TOPEKA — The Kansas Senate leader said Friday he had no interest in a bill that would allow concealed carry of weapons on college campuses.

“I think it’s a bad idea,” said Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton. He said combining concentrations of young people and guns doesn’t make sense.

House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence, whose district includes Kansas University, said, “I think that we need to let the Morris Regents institutions police those issues themselves. They know what the security concerns are, better than the 165 legislators.”

While KU and other Regents schools oppose the proposal, Davis said he has heard more from community colleges wanting to make sure the bill doesn’t become law.

This week, House Bill 2353 was approved by the House Federal and State Affairs Committee and is headed to the full House for consideration.

The measure, by Rep. Forrest Knox, RAltoona, states that people who are licensed to carry a concealed gun would be allowed to bring a weapon into a state or city facility unless the building had adequate security measures, such as electronic screening equipment and guards, to ensure that no weapons could be brought in.

Representatives of colleges, cities and counties and other groups have lobbied against the legislation, saying it would be cost prohibitive to have security systems at all entrances. That means concealed carry would have to be allowed in their facilities, they said.

Two years ago, a similar bill by Knox was approved by the House but it got bogged down in the Senate.

term through reforms to Medicaid, school finance, KPERS — and secure our state’s future with clean water.”

It’s not unusual for Democrats to criticize Brownback, a Republican, but Brownback’s plans on school funding and taxes have been criticized by Republicans, too.

Brownback’s tax proposal would reduce income tax rates, give thousands of businesses a tax break, eliminate numerous deductions and credits, including home mortgage interest and Earned Income Tax Credit, and keep in place the 6.3 percent state sales tax, which under current law is set to decrease to 5.7 percent next year.

In order to phase out income taxes, Brownback wants to cap state spending growth at 2 percent per year. House Republican leaders have also expressed support of a 2 percent cap.

But Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, said funding increases in Medicaid caseloads and the needs of the public pension system alone would eat up 2 percent budget growth.

A 2 percent limit, Morris said, “makes for a permanent budget crisis every year because everything else will be cut.”

Morris said a similar measure, called the Taxpayer Bill of Rights, was instituted in Colorado and

Crowley ran through the Republican candidates one by one — Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul — adding her observations.

Romney has staying power but hasn’t been able “to collect the passion,” while Gingrich “holds the anger” of dissatisfied conservatives, she said. Ron Paul, meanwhile, will fight to the end, hoping to bolster his political clout. And Santorum, still standing, is proving his conservative values to voters, Crowley said.

In a career covering politics, Crowley said it was the unknowns on the campaign trail that have kept her engrossed all these years.

“I don’t know who will win anymore than you do,” she said.

In the fall, though, Crowley predicted, the election will hinge on the economic climate

was a disaster.

Brownback’s plan on school finance plan has also drawn heat.

Senate Vice President John Vratil, R-Leawood, said, “The Senate Education Committee had hearings on the governor’s school finance bill three days this week, and if you look at the number of conferees testifying in favor compared to the number testifying in opposition, the governor’s bill is in trouble.”

Brownback’s plan would eliminate state limits on local taxes for schools and give local districts more authority in spending. Another part of Brownback’s plan — posting teacher evaluations on school district websites — was removed by Republicans after the proposal sparked outrage.

Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka said there is nothing wrong with the current school finance formula, but that the system is underfunded because of budget cuts made over the past several years. A Democratic proposal would phase in restoration of those lost dollars.

Democrats also said other centerpiece items of Brownback’s agenda — privatizing Medicaid and switching the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System to a 401(k)-style system for future workers — were raising alarms in the Legislature as legislators learn more about the issues.

and whether it improves enough to satisfy the undecided voters.

“Can the White House sell the trajectory of the economy?” said Crowley, whose numerous other journalism awards include an Emmy and an Edward R. Murrow Award.

Audience members lined up, asking Crowley questions about topics ranging from Iran to Herman Cain to Eliot Spitzer’s canceled CNN show.

Crowley, whose career at CNN began in 1987, spent the day at Kansas University, chatting with professors and aspiring journalists, sharing her advice for those pursuing a career in news.

While Crowley said she has concerns about the growing aspect of news that requires journalists to perform many tasks, she was impressed by KU’s journalism students.

“I always like talking to the journalism students,” Crowley said, adding that was the best part of her trip to Lawrence. “And knowing there’s this great group coming up that cares about journalism.”

House approves redrawing of Kan. district boundaries

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — When it came to redrawing their own political boundaries, Kansas House members generally got along well.

“I applaud the House for their extensive communication and cooperation in keeping communities of interest together,” LEGISLATURE said House Speaker Mike O’Neal, RHutchinson.

House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, agreed but added on Friday that Democrats “certainly took our licks. But some of that is to be expected for the minority party.”

guilty if they have reasonable doubt about the truth of “each” claim prosecutors were required to prove and that they should find him guilty if they have no reasonable doubt as to the truth of “any of the claims” required to be proved.

“The transposition turns proof beyond a reasonable doubt inside out and permits the state to convict with patently insufficient evidence,” the opinion reads.

Chief Judge Richard Greene and Judge G. Gordon Atcheson issued the opinion along with Neosho County District Judge Timothy Brazil, who sat with the appellate court on the case.

The House approved the new district lines on a 109-14 vote and the proposal next goes to the Senate.

Usually the Senate doesn’t alter the House plan and the House doesn’t alter the Senate plan.

The Senate hasn’t approved its map yet.

Population migration and loss resulted in western, central and southeastern Kansas each losing a House district, and Court in 2007 upheld the earlier direct appeal of Miller’s guilty verdict.

This appellate case was actually an appeal of a civil case Miller had filed against the state alleging his constitutional rights were violated during the trial and he was wrongfully imprisoned because his assistance from counsel in the case was ineffective.

The court of appeals panel in this decision found his previous attorney on the earlier appeal was ineffective for not finding and raising the jury instruction issue.

“The error so undermined Miller’s constitutional rights that controlling authority from the United States Supreme Court requires he be granted a new trial,” the judges wrote in the opinion.

In this new appeal, Lawrence attorney Jessica Kunen represented Miller,

Davis said Douglas County legislators — Republican and Democratic — met numerous times to work out a plan for Douglas County.

“We have an eclectic group,” he said. “But we worked together.”

Essentially, Davis and state Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, had to take in more residents.

This is because of a census readjustment based on a state constitutional provision that excludes nonresident college students and nonresident military personnel from being counted for redistricting purposes.

The district represented by state Rep. Anthony Brown, R-Eudora, has been readjusted to allow a new district in Johnson County, so his district takes in a little bit more of southeast Lawrence.

Miller, who was also a board member at Veritas Christian School, had told jurors in the trial that he was sleeping in another room when he heard Mary Miller, a Kansas University librarian, having an unknown attack and went to comfort her before she died.

Branson said prosecutors were still comfortable with the conviction.

“I have no doubt that the jury reached the correct opinion in this case,” Branson said.

“Having personally talked to some of the jurors after the trial, I believe they had no doubt in their verdict.”

AARP urges opposition to Westar rate hike

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — As state regulators consider Westar Energy’s proposed rate increase, which would give shareholders a 10 percent profit, AARP Kansas is stepping up calls for people to oppose the decision.

“AARP understands that essential utility service cannot be provided at a loss,” said AARP Kansas Director Maren Turner.

“However, the rate of return on investment for utilities should be fair and reasonable, and not a dime more. There is

BRIEFLY Historian to discuss traveling tombstone Lecompton Historical Society recently received the tombstone of one of three men from the town killed in Quantrill’s Raid in 1863.

Paul Bahnmaier, the society’s president, said the tombstone — of laborer James O’Neil, born in Ireland and associated with the Free State political party — had been found about 20 years ago in a dump. It was then in a shed and a pasture.

“It’s a strange in-and-out story,” Bahnmaier said of its journey.

Historian Katie Armitage will give a talk, part of the society’s Bleeding Kansas lecture series, at 2 p.m. Sunday about the survivors of the raid that will include information about O’Neil and his family. The talk will be at Constitution Hall, 319 Elmore St. in Lecompton.

“I’m delighted to tell that story,” Armitage said of O’Neil’s life.

Bahnmaier said he hoped O’Neil’s tombstone, plus those of the other two Lecompton men killed in the raid, would eventually be put in Maple Grove or Lecompton cemeteries.

Girl hurt in accident on Kansas Highway 33 A 7-year-old Olathe girl was taken to Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., after a one-vehicle accident Friday afternoon in southeastern Douglas County.

Sgt. Steve Lewis, a Douglas County Sheriff’s spokesman, said the girl’s injuries were not life-threatening. Her mother, Kristina Turnley, 28, was driving a southbound Nissan Altima on Kansas Highway 33, which is East 2300 Road.

The car drifted off the west side of the road when she over-corrected, causing the vehicle to cross the road, spin around and strike the ditch east of the road, Lewis said. The crash occurred about 1:10 p.m. about one mile north of the Franklin County line.

“

The rate of return on investment for utilities should be fair and reasonable, and not a dime more. There is simply no justification to award Westar stockholders excessive profits which will be coming out of the pockets of struggling Kansas families.”

— AARP Kansas director Maren Turner simply no justification to award Westar stockholders excessive profits which will be coming out of the pockets of struggling Kansas families,” Turner said.

The staff of the Kansas Corporation Commission and We-

star filed a proposed settlement agreement that would give Westar a $50 million rate increase. According to the agreement, $41 million of the $50 million, would be paid by Westar’s residential and small

business customers.

The other $9 million would be paid by larger customers, such as Kroger, Walmart, Boeing, Spirit Aerosystems, Cargill Inc., Hawker Beechcraft, Coffeyville Refinery and Occidental Chemical, all of whom are supportive of the agreement or not opposing it.

Westar, the state’s largest electric utility with more than 650,000 customers, had initially requested a $91 million rate increase. The Citizens’ Utility Ratepayer Board said Westar should decrease rates by $11.6 million.

EMMA HERTIG, 11, A STUDENT AT DEERFIELD SCHOOL, sets up her potato power project Friday for this year’s USD 497 District Science Fair at South Middle School.

Students show off projects at county science fair today

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Daniel Mangiaracino has been waiting most of his life to participate in a science fair — well, at least since before he was in kindergarten.

On Friday, the Bishop Seabury sixth-grader was busy setting up his exhibit board, the tallest one in the room, in the gym at South Middle School, 2734 La. Daniel’s project measured sugar content using a laser.

He’d been working on it since the start of the school year. In all, he has spent nearly 150 hours researching and experimenting, he estimated.

“I’m very, very excited,” he said, noting it was almost as much fun as History Day. Daniel’s project was one of more than 300 that was entered into the USD 497 District Science Fair. Sponsored in part by the Douglas County Science Fair Asso-

ciation, the event is opened to all public and private school students throughout the county. About 800 students are expected to participate.

From 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. today, the fair will be open to the public. Along with the student’s work, the science expo will have handson activities from Kansas University’s science and engineering departments, animals from Pet World and representatives from local astronomy and conservation clubs.

Since October, students and teachers have been preparing for the fair. The intent is to help students grasp the process behind scientific research.

Each of the projects will be judged on how the student gathered data, displayed the data and came to conclusions based on the data. Along with a exhibit board, each of the projects comes with a written report.

“It’s an opportunity to apply the scientific method, from the development of an inquiry and question that they want to test to forming a hypothesis and some type of procedure to test that hypothesis and collect the data,” said Anne Hawks, Lawrence Public Schools curriculum specialist.

While the event is to encourage budding scientists, it also tests math and language arts skills.

The projects on display Friday night ranged in topics from what gender had the most bacteria in their bathroom to the effects of electric voltage on plant growth. The fair is divided by physical science, life science and engineering projects.

Many of the projects involved some kind of food, such as which food would spoil fastest, whether potatoes or lemons could power a light bulb or if peppermint improved reaction time.

A plan to convert a South Lawrence trailer park into a development that will have nearly 1,000 bedrooms for local college students is set for a key vote at Lawrence City Hall.

City commissioners on Tuesday will consider approving a variety of rezoning and permit applications for Aspen Heights, a proposed development that will convert the Gaslight Mobile home village into a unique complex of about 300 student apartments.

But the project, proposed by an Austin, Texas-based development firm, won’t feature traditional, large apartment buildings. Instead, developers are proposing 304 house-like structures — each with two to four bedrooms — over a 40-acre site.

“We know that students like to feel like they are at home,” said Charlie Vatterott, executive vice-president of development for Aspen Heights.

But the development will cause residents of the Gaslight CITY Village to find new homes.

COMMISSION “The developers have said that people could stay until the end of the school year,” said Tom Horner III, an executive with Edwardsville-based Mid-America Manufactured Housing Communities, the trailer park’s ownership group. “I think it will be after June 1 because you can’t really expect people to end school and then move that next week or so.”

Horner said his company is committed to paying the moving costs of residents who want to relocate their mobile home to a nearby Lawrence mobile home park.

Horner estimated there are more than 200 vacant lots at Lawrence mobile home parks and fewer than 130 mobile homes will be affected by the sale of Gaslight. He said that number is shrinking because people already are beginning to find other living accommodations.

City commissioners are being asked to approve several aspects of the development.

Details of the plan include:

Earlier Wales was in a fight with a woman inside, and she had left the house and was treated for injuries at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

District Judge Sally Pokorny is scheduled to sentence Wales March 30.

electronics was stolen on Wednesday from the 1300 block of Tennessee Street, according to police reports.

ACCIDENT REPORT • An injury accident on Interstate 70 between Lecompton and Lawrence on Friday caused one person to be extricated from his vehicle plus two further accidents, traffic delays and a 100-plus-gallon diesel fuel spill on the highway.

Kansas Turnpike Authority Trooper Craig Corbett said a Chevy Suburban got a flat tire and stopped in the center lane headed east at about 6:20 p.m. A Chevy Malibu then hit the Suburban and the Malibu’s driver, a 40-year-old Lawrence man, had to be cut out of the car.

The driver and two passengers received only minor injuries, he said.

Traffic slowed around the scene of this accident and, at about 7 p.m., a Parkville woman veered into the left rear side of a semi-truck, rupturing its gas tanks and dislodging its batteries. She was not hurt in the accident, KTA Trooper Alex Petigna said.

Shortly after this accident, a pickup-truck driver slid on the diesel fuel on the road and ran into the median. He was not hurt.

The Journal-World does not print accounts of all police reports filed. The newspaper generally reports: • Burglaries, only with a loss of $1,000 or more, unless there are unusual circumstances. To protect victims, we generally don’t identify them by name.

• The names and circumstances of people arrested, only after they are charged.

• Assaults and batteries, only if major injuries are reported.

• Holdups and robberies.

CORRECTIONS The Journal-World’s policy is to correct all significant errors that are brought to the editors’ attention, usually in this space. If you believe we have made such an error, call (785) 832-7154, or email news@ ljworld.com.

takes the same position.

But the Personhood Kansas Committee, the Wichita-area group promoting the proposed amendment, strongly disagrees, and Chairman Bruce Garren said he’s surprised that Kinzer won’t at least agree to a hearing, particularly because there’s interest among Kinzer’s colleagues.

“We have 25 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives. You’d think that would be enough to get a hearing,” Garren said. “It’s really frustrating.”

Both chambers would have to adopt the proposed amendment by two-thirds majorities — something that’s likely in the House but uncertain in the Senate. If both did, the measure would go on the statewide ballot in the Aug. 7 primary election, where approval by a simple majority would add it to the Constitution.

Passage of a bill like the one Kinzer favors would require only simple majorities in both chambers and Brownback’s signature.

Kinzer is pushing a 68page bill to rewrite the state’s “informed consent” law on abortion, requiring doctors to provide certain information before terminating a woman’s pregnancy. Among other things, it would require doctors to allow their patients to hear a fetal heartbeat. The bill also would ensure there is no change to printed materials for patients, including one part that discusses alternatives to abortion and says, “What about adoption?”

Also, the bill would prohibit schools from incorporating materials for any group that provides abortion services into classes that deal with human sexuality or sexually transmitted diseases.

Women go red at event to support heart health She credits her husband, Gary, for exercising and eating healthier, too.

“It would be more difficult if I had to do it alone,” she said.

Her advice for other women is to take care of themselves — eat right, exercise, don’t smoke and try to eliminate stress.

“This wasn’t something that just happened. It was building up for years,” she said.

Also during the luncheon, Susan Lunte, a professor of chemistry and pharmaceutical chemistry at Kansas University, spoke about students who are conducting research on cardiovascular disease, American’s No. 1 killer.

She said they are studying why arteries become clogged and ways to detect heart disease in early stages.

Kirsten Flory, co-chair of the event, said she hoped the event raised awareness about heart disease and empowered women to lead healthier lifestyles.

“It’s not something that you can wake up one morning and get. It’s something you can tackle so you can never get it.

That’s what was empowering to me,” she said.

Julie Crowe suffered a massive heart attack just over a year ago at age 52.

“I was very lucky — very lucky,” the Lawrence resident said Friday while attending the eighth annual Go Red For Woman Luncheon and Expo in Kansas Memorial Union’s ballroom.

The event was a fundraiser for the American Heart Association and it was attended by about 200 people who were mostly clad in red.

Crowe, who works in human resources at Kansas University, shared her story through an eight-minute video that was shown during the luncheon.

“It’s a life-changing event,” she said. “I’m a totally different person now.”

For 30 years, she had smoked about a pack of cigarettes per day. She also didn’t care much about exercising and eating healthy despite the fact that heart disease was prevalent in her family. Crowe said her mother had a heart attack at age 50, bypass surgery at 55 and died of heart disease at 66.

Crowe said she didn’t heed the warning signs of extreme tiredness and jaw and shoulder pain until it became so painful she went to the hospital.

She said the hospital did a thorough exam and ran tests that showed she was OK. She said the pain subsided for a couple of days but then returned, so her primary care doctor had her complete a stress test.

“I jokingly told the tech not give me a heart attack,” she said. Her blood pressure was high during the test but there was no pain; she returned home

and about 30 minutes later she began having chest pain.

“It was chest pain like I had never ever had before,” she said, adding she took two baby Aspirins to see if it would help — something she learned from her mother. While suffering the chest pain, she received a call from the doctor’s office. The stress test showed that she had suffered a heart attack.

While on the phone, she described her symptoms and they told her to get to the emergency room.

Within 32 minutes, she had a stent put into her blocked artery, and within 10 days she was back at work.

“I’m counting my blessings and appreciating what’s important in my life,” she said.

Crowe said she had her last cigarette on the day of her heart attack.

“When you get the holy bejesus scared out of you, I just quit. I am not lying.

I have not had the desire even once to pick up a cigarette,” she said.

She exercises at least 60 minutes a day and bought a treadmill for those days when she doesn’t want to go outside. She doesn’t eat — Health reporter Karrey Britt can be at restaurants as often and does a lot more label read- reached at 832-7190. Britt’s health blog ing.

Under fire, Obama adjusts Handcrafted Solid AMISH Wood Furniture stance on birth control policy

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Under fierce election-year fire, President Barack Obama on Friday abruptly abandoned his stand that religious organizations must pay for birth control for workers, scrambling to end a furor raging from the Catholic Church to Congress to his re-election foes. He demanded that insurance companies step in to provide the coverage instead.

Obama’s compromise means ultimately that women would still get birth control without having to pay for it, no matter where they work. The president insisted he had stuck by that driving principle even in switching his approach, and the White House vehemently rejected any characterization that Obama had retreated under pressure.

Yet there was no doubt that Obama had found himself in an untenable position. He needed to walk back fast and find another route to his goal.

The controversy over contraception and religious liberty was overshadowing his agenda, threatening to alienate key voters and giving ammunition to the Republicans running for his job. It was a mess that knocked the White House off its message and vision for a second term.

Leaders from opposite sides of the divisive debate said they supported the outcome — or at least suggested they probably could live with it. Cardinal-designate Timothy Dolan of New York, the head of the nation’s Roman Catholic bishops and a fierce critic of the original rule covering hospitals and other employers,

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, accompanied by Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, announces the revamp of his contraception policy requiring religious institutions to fully pay for birth control Friday in the Brady Press Briefing Room of the White House in Washington. said the bishops were reserving judgment but that Obama’s move was a good first step.

The bishops’ organization later issued a far more skeptical critique contending that the new approach offered insufficient protections for religious employers and calling that unacceptable.

Republicans hoping to oust Obama from the White House were conceding nothing. Though not mentioning the birth control issue, Newt Gingrich assailed the president’s views of religious rights and said “I frankly don’t care what deal he tries to cut. ... If he wins re-election, he will wage war on the Catholic Church the morning after he’s re-elected.”

Mitt Romney, the frontrunner in the campaign for the GOP presidential nomination, said the decision didn’t change anything.

“Today he did the classic Obama retreat, all right, and what I mean by that is

it wasn’t a retreat at all. It’s another deception,” Romney said while campaigning in Portland, Maine.

Obama, acknowledging he wanted a resolution to the controversy, ordered advisers to find a middle ground in days, not within a year as had been the plan before the uproar. He said he spoke as a Christian who cherishes religious freedom and as a president unwilling to give up on free contraceptive care.

“I’ve been confident from the start that we could work out a sensible approach here, just as I promised,” Obama said. “I understand some folks in Washington may want to treat this as another political wedge issue, but it shouldn’t be. I certainly never saw it that way.” Under the new plan, religious employers such as charities, universities and hospitals will not have to offer contraception and will not have to refer their employees to places that provide it.

If an employer opts out of

the requirement, its insurance company must provide birth control for free in a separate arrangement with workers who want it.

“Very pleased,” was how Sister Carol Keehan, president of the Catholic Health Association, reacted in a statement distributed by the White House.

Her trade group represents Catholic hospitals that had fought against the birth control requirement, and Keehan said the new arrangement addresses the concerns it had.

In searching for a way out of the crisis, Obama also had to be mindful not to anger many women and fellow Democrats.

Planned Parenthood, a prominent women’s health organization, said Obama had reaffirmed his commitment to birth control coverage. The group’s president, Cecile Richards, added, though, that it would be monitoring for “rigorous, fair and consistent” enforcement so women get the promised coverage.

Sandusky seeks visits with grandkids

By Mark Scolforo Associated Press

BELLEFONTE, PA. — Jerry Sandusky declared Friday that people have turned against him, moments after the ex-Penn State football coordinator asked a judge for greater freedom while he awaits trial on child sex abuse charges.

Sandusky was in a Centre County courtroom and asked a judge to let him see relatives, including supervised visits with his grandchildren, and friends. He denies the criminal allegations.

The judge could rule early next week on Sandusky’s request.

Sandusky also said he felt people who had been welcomed in his home were now trying to keep him confined indoors.

“I’ve associated with thousands of young people over the years,” said Sandusky, 68, the former Penn State defensive coordinator charged with 52 criminal counts involving 10 victims over 15 years.

“And now, all of a sudden, because of allegations and perceptions that have been tried to be created of me, now I can’t take our dog on my deck and throw out biscuits to him.”

Sandusky’s home borders an elementary school and its playground. After he sought permission to see relatives and friends and leave his home to help lawyers prepare his case, the attorney general’s office countered with a court filing that said neighbors expressed concern for the safety of children. A teacher and intern also reported that he had

Egypt’s military warns of plots on eve of strike

By Ben Hubbard Associated Press

CAIRO — Egypt’s military rulers warned Friday that the country faces conspiracies that seek to topple the state and spread chaos, in a message intended to undermine activists who plan to mark the anniversary of President Hosni Mubarak’s overthrow with anti-army protests.

The statement from the council of generals who took power when Mubarak stepped down on Feb. 11, 2011, came on the eve of a planned general strike aimed at pressuring the military to give up power.

Protest groups have grown harshly critical of the military’s handling of Egypt’s transition to democracy, accusing the army of trying to protect its

power and committing human rights violations that rival those of Mubarak’s regime. Thousands rallied outside the defense ministry Friday to call for the immediate transition of power to a civilian authority.

In a statement read on state TV Friday, the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces said it would not bow to pressures to accelerate the transition.

“Never will we bow to threats, nor succumb to pressures, nor accept ultimatums,” it said.

The message said the army had played an essential role in Egypt’s transition and warned of plots that seek to strike “a mortal blow” to the revolution by sewing discord between the army and the people.

been watching children from his back deck.

Prosecutors want an order that restricts Sandusky to the inside of his home, which a county probation officer said would be unusual for people under inhome detention.

His lawyer, Joe Amendola, told Judge John Cleland that Sandusky had not sought probation officers’ approval for adult visitors, but he was seeking the judge’s permission because he sensed the officers were reluctant to do anything out of the ordinary. An investigator said none of the complaints involved Sandusky approaching children.

State prosecutor Jonelle Eshbach told the judge that a clearly defined trip to help his legal team would be one thing, but she was against letting

him have visitors. The allegations include charges he sexually attacked a boy in the basement of his home, while his wife was upstairs.

“This home was not safe for children for 15 years, and it’s not safe for children now,” Eshbach said. “We think that the actual contact, visitation with his grandchildren is not a good idea. And we also feel that way with regard to visitors.”

Prosecutors noted that one daughter-in-law strongly objects to increased contact between her children and Sandusky, while Amendola presented the court with letters from Sandusky’s children, and notes and drawings from his grandchildren, expressing their desire for increased contact.

Politics drives retreat on insurance issue WASHINGTON — At the National Prayer Breakfast last week, seeking theological underpinning for his drive to raise taxes on the rich, President Obama invoked the highest possible authority. His policy, he testified “as a Christian,” “coincides with Jesus’ teaching that ‘for unto whom much is given, much shall be required.’”

Now, I’m no theologian, but I’m fairly certain that neither Jesus nor his rabbinic forebears, when speaking of giving, meant

“

The contradiction is glaring, the hypocrisy breathtaking. But that’s not why Obama offered a hasty compromise on Friday. It’s because the firestorm of protest was becoming a threat to his re-election.”

some obligation to the state. You tithe the priest, not the tax man.

The Judeo-Christian tradition commands personal generosity.

But no matter. Let’s assume that Obama has biblical authority for hiking the marginal tax rate exactly 4.6 points for couples making more than $250,000 (depending, of course, on the prevailing shekel-to-dollar exchange rate). Let’s stipulate that Obama’s prayer-breakfast invocation of religion as vindicating his politics was not, God forbid, crass, hypocritical, self-serving electioneering, but a sincere expression of a social-gospel Christianity that sees good works as central to the very concept of religiosity.

Fine. But this Gospel according to Obama has a rival — the newly revealed Gospel according to Sebelius, over which has erupted quite a contretemps. By some peculiar logic, it falls to the health and human services

secretary to promulgate the definition of “religious” — for the purposes, for example, of exempting religious institutions from certain regulatory dictates.

Such exemptions are granted in grudging recognition that, whereas the rest of civil society may be broken to the will of the state’s regulators, our quaint Constitution grants special autonomy to religious institutions.

Accordingly, it would be a mockery of the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment if, for example, the Catholic Church were required by law to freely provide such “health care services” (in secularist parlance) as contraception, sterilization and pharmacological abortion — to which Catholicism is doctrinally opposed as a grave contravention of its teachings about the sanctity of life.

Ah. But there would be no such Free Exercise violation if the institutions so mandated are deemed, by regulatory fiat, not religious.

And thus, the word came forth from Sebelius decreeing the exact criteria required (a) to meet her definition of “religious” and thus (b) to qualify for a modicum of independence from newly enacted state control of American health care, under

which the aforementioned Sebelius and her phalanx of experts determine everything — from who is to be covered, to which treatments are to be guaranteed free-of-charge.

Criterion 1: A “religious institution” must have “the inculcation of religious values as its purpose.” But that’s not the purpose of Catholic charities; it’s to give succor to the poor. That’s not the purpose of Catholic hospitals; it’s to give succor to the sick. Therefore, they don’t qualify as “religious” — and therefore can be required, among other things, to provide free morningafter abortifacients.

Criterion 2: Any exempt institution must be one that “primarily employs” and “primarily serves persons who share its religious tenets.” Catholic soup kitchens do not demand religious IDs from either the hungry they feed or the custodians they employ. Catholic charities and hospitals — even Catholic schools — do not turn away Hindu or Jew. Their vocation is universal, precisely the kind of universal love-thy-neighbor vocation that is the very definition of religiosity as celebrated by the Gospel of Obama. Yet according to the Gospel of Sebelius, these very same Catholic institutions are not reli-

gious at all — under the secularist assumption that religion is what happens on Sunday under some Gothic spire, while good works are “social services” that are properly rendered up unto Caesar.

This all would be merely the story of contradictory theologies, except for this: Sebelius is Obama’s appointee. She works for him. These regulations were his call. Obama authored both gospels.

Therefore: To flatter his faithbreakfast guests and justify his tax policies, Obama declares good works to be the essence of religiosity. Yet he turns around and, through Sebelius, tells the faithful who engage in good works that what they’re doing is not religion at all. You want to do religion? Get thee to a nunnery. You want shelter from the power of the state?

Get out of your soup kitchen and back to your pews. Outside, Leviathan rules.

The contradiction is glaring, the hypocrisy breathtaking. But that’s not why Obama offered a hasty compromise on Friday. It’s because the firestorm of protest was becoming a threat to his reelection. Sure, health care, good works and religion are important. But re-election is divine.

Aging secretary responds on KanCare

By Shawn Sullivan Secretary, Kansas Department on Aging

Last week in Lawrence, an advocacy group presented several inaccuracies about KanCare, the Medicaid reform plan proposed by Gov. Sam Brownback. I would also like to take this opportunity to respond to an editorial questioning the inclusion of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) within KanCare. It is important for Kansans to understand the challenges the state faces under the current system, why the governor tasked the lieutenant governor, secretary of KDHE and me to transform it and how the reform will improve the lives of thousands.

In Kansas, Medicaid serves as a safety net for 383,000 elderly, disabled and low-income families and children. Since 2000, the growth in spending for the Kansas Medicaid program has averaged 7.4 percent annually. If this spending growth is allowed to continue, Kansas will be forced to either cut spending on other state responsibilities like education and public safety — or follow the lead of other states and cut provider rates, restrict eligibility and reduce services provided.

None of those are options for Gov. Brownback. When we set out to transform Medicaid, our vision was to serve Kansans in need with a transformed, fiscally sustainable

program that provides high-quality, holistic care that promotes personal responsibility.

There have been questions about the administration’s plans to implement KanCare in January 2013, specifically for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We believe there are great opportunities for improvement with the health outcomes and mental health coordination for developmentally disabled Kansans. Sullivan Under KanCare, consumers will be able to access the system through their current providers and case managers as they do now, without cuts in services. It is important to note that the professional associations for physicians and also mental health centers support this inclusion because of the enhanced care coordination that will occur through health homes to be created within KanCare.

This week’s editorial questioned whether Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) of Kansas not bidding on KanCare was because of the scope of the KanCare plan and its timeline and also countered a quote from me that BCBS does not cover Medicaid in other states.

What the Lawrence Journal-World stands for

The editorial was correct to point out that independent BCBS association licensees in other states are Medicaid providers. However, it is still important to know that BCBS has not been a Medicaid provider in Kansas. Based on the BCBS of Kansas model, we were surprised months ago to learn it was considering bidding on KanCare, but welcomed its interest in serving vulnerable Kansans.

The KanCare plan proposes that mental health, physical health and long-term services and supports will be coordinated through a KanCare health home. This will enhance care coordination and will require KanCare vendors to phase-in implementation for all consumers with complex needs within the first two years of KanCare.

KanCare will improve health outcomes, better coordinate all care and, in time, will bend down the cost curve of Medicaid. KanCare will maintain current benefit levels to Kansans who depend on Medicaid while also maintaining provider reimbursement and improving the care of the whole person.

I encourage all Kansans to learn more about KanCare from the Kansas Department on Aging’s website at www.agingkansas. org. Please feel free to submit any questions about KanCare to KanCare@kdheks.gov.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 11, 1912: YEARS “At a meetAGO ing of the IN 1912 Federation of Women’s Clubs held yesterday afternoon in the small Fraternal Aid Hall and attended by about thirty women, the general welfare and social purity of Lawrence were discussed.

The outcome of the meeting was that various committees were appointed and resolutions passed to see what can be done to keep the standard of Lawrence as high as it has always been. The general idea gained from the meeting ... is that there is no desire to say that Lawrence is bad or that there are many more evil influences here than elsewhere, but that with the growth of the city and the many students who come here to school it is only right that certain actions be taken to make Lawrence always as fine a town in which to live as it has always been.”

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

1952 champs return to KU The 1952 Kansas national championship basketball team gathered Friday night at Bill Hougland’s house, the back of which overlooks the 17th green at Lawrence Country Club.

Nobody was talking golf.

Everybody was talking about how much they enjoy this season’s overachieving KU basketball team. And when they discussed the qualities of their own team of 60 years ago, they mentioned intense defense, working the ball inside and an unselfish approach to the game.

The more they chatted, the more it became apparent not much has changed with Kansas basketball in the past 60 years.

“I don’t know about that,” said Bob “Trigger” Kenney, the team’s best outside shooter and the nation’s free-throw percentage leader that year. “We had over a 40-inch vertical leap. That was all of us combined.”

Kenney lives in Scottsdale, Ariz., and is in town for today’s game against Oklahoma State, a 3 p.m. tipoff in Allen Fieldhouse. Six players from the ’52 squad will be honored at halftime.

Clyde Lovellette, who dropped 33 points and 17 rebounds on St. John’s in the national title game, came in from North Manchester, Ind. Reserve Bill Heitholt made the trip from Commerce, Texas. Lawrence residents Hougland and Bill Lienhard, the starting forwards, and Al Kelley, a reserve guard, also will take center court at halftime. Health issues prevent Charlie Hoag from participating.

The Jayhawks will wear retro uniforms, although not short shorts. Cheerleaders will fashion longer skirts and bobby sox.

The 1952 and 2012 teams share more than fashion similarities.

“Very impressive,” Heitholt said of this year’s team. “They play intense defense. That’s what we were known for too.”

Also, both squads feature a superstar — Lovellette then, Thomas Robinson now.

“I love the way Robinson plays,” Kenney said. “He’s my favorite guy, and he was last year. The guy is a tough rebounder. And he’s certainly a hustler. I think he’s one of the best players in the country, if not the best. And Clyde was a great player.

Not many people, I suppose, know that now. Clyde was a great shooter. He made damn near everything he shot.

Three-time All-American, the premier player in his era. He led the nation in scoring and damn near everything else.”

As in ’52, Kansas does a good job feeding the ball inside, though not always to the satisfaction of coach Bill Self standing courtside or Lovellette watching from his living room.

“I saw a lot of times they could have gotten it inside and they didn’t,” Lovellette said. “I say, ‘Why don’t you get it in?’ Of course they don’t hear me in that television.”

Self gave the ’52 players a tour of the facilities Friday afternoon, and Lovellette, who had given his letter jackets to his brothers, was presented with a brand-new one, just the beginning of a weekend with a distinct family reunion feel to it.

FREE STATE’S CHELSEA CASADY (32) RUNS INTO THE OLATHE SOUTH DEFENSE under the basket on Friday at Olathe South. The Firebirds lost to the Falcons, 52-50 at the buzzer, despite Casady’s game-high 18 points.

O-South girls clip Free State, 52-50, in final seconds

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

OLATHE — All season long, Free State High’s girls basketball team had talked about Friday night’s game at Olathe South.

The Firebirds had never beaten the Falcons in program history. “This is the year,” they thought.

And it nearly was. However, O-South senior guard Megan Balcom drilled a threepointer at the buzzer to keep the Falcons undefeated — both this season and all-time versus Free State — with a 5250 victory.

FSHS junior guard Kennedy Kirkpatrick had hit her second of two free throws with 16 seconds left to break a 49-all tie and put the Firebirds (12-4) ahead by a point. The Falcons (15-0) brought the ball down the floor and couldn’t find a driving lane or open look against Free State’s half-court defense, so O-South coach

FREE STATE’S LYNN ROBINSON HUGS Olathe South’s Megan Balcom after the Firebirds lost, 52-50, on a Balcom threepointer at the buzzer. Both players play on the same summer team.

Steve Ingram was forced to call a timeout with two seconds remaining.

Falcons sophomore Bailey Rinehart made the in-bounds pass from the right sideline to Balcom at the top of the key.

Even though she had missed

all four of her three-point tries up to that point and was 2-for-9 from the floor in the first 31:58 of the game, Balcom stroked the straight-away three-pointer from about 24 feet to snap the Firebirds’ seven-game winning streak.

Said Free State coach Bryan Duncan: “When you can force a shot like that, you’ll take your chances.”

Just thinking about the game-winning shot minutes later was like a blow to the gut for Firebirds junior Chelsea Casady.

“Ugh,” she muttered, when it was brought up.

The worst part was Casady had a great look at the shot, which she can now see playing over again in her head.

“I was going out to guard her, and the minute I turned, I was like, ‘It’s going in,’” she recalled, calling it a “perfect shot.”

After the dismayed Firebirds walked off the floor, Duncan knew there wasn’t much he could say in the locker room to make the emotional players feel better.

“I think we were all sick to our stomachs,” he said.

KANSAS MEN’S BASKETBALL

Withey looks to stay hot against Oklahoma State

KANSAS CENTER JEFF WITHEY, (5) SCORES two of his 17 first-half points against the Baylor Bears on Wednesday in Waco, Texas. Withey scored a careerhigh 25 points in the game.

Kansas University basketball center Jeff Withey, who exploded for a career-high 25 points on Wednesday at Baylor, today will be cheered on by a legend who averaged 24.5 points a game in his three-year KU career.

That person would be 82-year-old Clyde Lovellette — the No. 4 scorer in school history — who will be honored at halftime of today’s KU-Oklahoma State game (3 p.m., Allen Fieldhouse) with other members of the Jayhawks’ 1952 NCAA title team.

“It’ll be cool to meet him and know he’s watching us play,” said Withey, a 7-foot, 235-pound junior, who is a tad bit taller than the 6-10 Lovellette. “I’m just going to go out like it’s any other game.”

It’s possible the presence of Lovellette may be today’s motivating factor for Withey, who admittedly sometimes needs extra prodding from ‘POKES IN teammates THE PHOG to get ultraenthused for What: Oklahoma games. “ B e f o r e State (12-12 the game I’ll overall, 5-6 be sitting Big 12) vs. around try- Kansas (19ing to get 5, 9-2) myself ready.

It helps me whenever they (teammates) hit me on the chest or say something. I don’t hold grudges against them for doing that. I know they are trying to get me fired up,” he added.

KU coach Bill Self also motivates Withey, who takes an 8.8 scoring, 5.8 rebound average into today’s game.

“Talk to him. Yell at him.

Challenge him,” Self said with a smile, referring to getting nice-guy Withey ready for action. “The whole thing this year is he’s really a good player. He can impact a game in so many ways. He doesn’t do it as consistently as what I think he’s capable of, but Please see KU MEN, page 5B

NCAA denies UConn waiver request STORRS, CONN. (AP) — The NCAA on Friday turned down the University of Connecticut’s request for a waiver that would allow its men’s basketball team to play in the 2013 national championship tournament.

UConn doesn’t qualify for the tournament because of belowstandard academic results, but it requested a waiver last month.

The school proposed alternate penalties, including playing a shorter schedule next season, forfeiting the revenue awarded to the Big East for participating in the 2013 tournament, and barring coach Jim Calhoun from meeting offcampus with prospective recruits during the fall 2012 contact period.

University President Susan Herbst said she’s disappointed by the decision of NCAA staff to reject that proposal, but said the school will appeal.

Under rules approved in October, a school must have a twoyear average score of 930 or a four-year average of 900 on the NCAA’s annual Academic Progress Rate, which measures the

academic performance of student athletes.

Connecticut’s men’s basketball scored 826 for the 2009-10 school year. UConn’s score for the 2010-11 school year is expected to be about 975.

That would not be high enough. It would give Connecticut a two-year score of 900.5 and a four-year average of 888.5.

According to a new Forbes magazine poll, Tiger Woods is the second most disliked athlete in America. He is ranked just behind Michael Vick, the convicted dogfighting criminal. He is ranked just ahead of Plaxico Burress, who also did prison time, on a gun charge.

Really?

Woods’ marriage suffered an epic fail two years ago, selfinflicted. No one could defend his behavior in that regard. But does the man truly belongs between two former jailbirds on a most-loathed list? The poll-takers should have shown up for Thursday’s first round of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Here is what they would have seen: — Woods hitting the ball extremely well 90 percent of the time, good enough to shoot a 4-under-par 68 at Spyglass Hill Golf Course, putting him in a tie for 15th place after 18 holes. — Woods showing as much teeth as he has in a long while, smiling often, jogging perkily off one tee box and even chuckling when his amateur playing partner, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, bounced his drive off a cart path at No. 17. — Woods picking up fan support as the day progressed, even though he has snubbed this tournament since 2002.

For example, at the fifth green, the same spectator who heckled Romo after a bad chip shot with a yell of, “Don’t quit your day job,� turned around a few seconds later and shouted at Woods: “Tiger! Win this one!

Win it!� — Woods receiving a loud cheer at the ninth green, his final hole of the day after starting his round on the back nine.

Then, as he walked off the green after sinking his par putt, Woods tossing his golf ball into the gallery, aimed specifically at an avid fan with a bleachedblond Afro who had followed him all 18 holes.

Now, let’s be honest. Woods is still not Mr. Warm and Friendly-Wink-At-You Fuzzy Guy. He uttered epithets after at least two bad fairway iron shots Thursday — one of them unheard by the gallery because he looked toward the ocean and yelled. But more than once, he also acknowledged voices from the crowd. At the 15th hole, one man’s “Go get-em, Tiger� drew a response of, “Thanks, bud.�

On another tee box, as Woods waited for the fairway to clear ahead of him — again — during the six-hour round, he twirled his driver like a baton in an almost carefree way.

Oh, he is still not the Tiger Woods of old. The galleries that once flocked three-deep around every fairway to watch him now ebb and flow in terms of crowd size. Fans now drop in and out of his round, rather than being riveted to it. We keep waiting. When will the old Tiger Woods appear, the one that made the PGA Tour bend to his will?

It’s the wrong question. The question should be: When will Woods become the best Woods he now can be? And what will that Woods look like? Over the next two days, we might well learn. As a bonus, he might even become more likable.

CHARLIE WI FOLLOWS THE FLIGHT OF HIS SHOT OFF THE 18TH TEE at Pebble Beach. Wi fired a 3-under 69 on Friday for the second-round lead in the Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

Wi up by three at Pebble Beach Pro-Am PEBBLE BEACH, CALIF. — On a day when sunshine gave way to a light rain, two things stayed the same Friday at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Charlie Wi was still atop the leaderboard, and Tiger Woods didn’t hole enough putts to make up ground.

Wi escaped most of the rain at Pebble Beach, where he holed a wedge from the 13th fairway for eagle and limited the damage to a bogey on his final hole for a 3-under 69 that allowed him to open a three-shot lead.

Dustin Johnson was caught off guard by the rain in the worst way. He stood in the fourth fairway at Spyglass with a short-sleeve shirt, hands thrust in his pocket, as his caddie sent a friend running up the hill to the parking lot to retrieve his rain gear. His short game let him down, and the two-time Pebble champion had to settle for a 72 that put him three back.

Woods, meanwhile, again looked poised to make a move over at Monterey Peninsula. He missed a 5-foot birdie putt on No. 9 and failed to make birdie on the par-5 10th when he pulled his second shot into the gallery. He had to settle for a 2-under 68, leaving him six behind.

Phil Mickelson struggled in sunshine. In rain, he ran off five birdies for a 65 at Monterey Peninsula that put him five shots behind.

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL

LHS boys demolish O-North

By Jesse Newell jnewell@ljworld.com

Bryce Montes de Oca built the Lawrence High lead, but it was Jake Mosiman that helped deliver the knockout blow.

The two players combined for 37 points, leading LHS to a 72-51 victory over Olathe North on Friday night at LHS gym.

“Everybody was dishing really well,” Mosiman said, “and we were just finding the open shot.”

Most of the shots early were from Montes de Oca, as the 6-foot-7 forward had eight of LHS’s first 10 points as the Lions opened a 10-4 lead.

“I had a size advantage, so I just used my advantage,” Montes de Oca said. “I was patient and let things come to me and didn’t try to force anything.”

The sophomore continued his production in the second quarter, scoring eight straight LHS points as the Lions took a 34-26 advantage at halftime.

Through 16 minutes, Montes de Oca was up to 16 points on 7-for-9 shooting.

“It was a nice combination of efforts there where he was doing his job, the guards were getting him the ball and he was finishing,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said. “He’s pretty hard to stop when he gets position.”

When Montes de Oca picked up his third foul less than two minutes into the third quarter, it was Mosiman who emerged for LHS. The 5-foot-11 junior put in a three-pointer, a runner with a foul and another three during a 10-0 LHS run that pushed the Lions’ lead to 47-28.

“The guys have a lot of confidence in him,” Lewis said of Mosiman. “It’s ex-

LHS’s ball movement, which included a few crisp assists from KJ Pritchard, helped the team to an efficient night offensively.

The Lions made 59 percent of their field goals (29 of 49) and also 38 percent of their three-pointers (six of 16).

Montes de Oca led LHS, posting a game-high 20 points on 9-for-13 shooting.

“He really worked the defense well,” Lewis said.

“We passed the ball to him where he needed to

catch it, and he finished.”

Mosiman contributed 17 points off the bench, going 6-for-9 from the floor and 2-for-3 from three-point range.

Pritchard added 10 points, while Shane Willoughby posted nine points on 4-for-5 shooting.

The Lions also dominated the glass, out-rebounding the Eagles, 37-21.

Lewis said he was happy with his team’s effort, especially on the night of Winter Court with a few extra alums in attendance.

“For us to play well ... all the guys are feeling good about it,” Lewis said.

FSHS falls short at Olathe South

By Benton Smith

Lawrence High girls lose rhythm, fall to Olathe North, 43-34 A struggling Lawrence High offense didn’t get any favors going up against Olathe North’s Jessica Sheble.

The 6-foot-3 junior dominated the inside, posting 20 points, 14 rebounds and nine blocks in North’s 43-34 victory over LHS on Friday night.

“It’s hard to simulate (her size), but we knew it was coming,” LHS coach Nick Wood said. “When that happens, that can’t be an excuse.”

The Lions were able to get good shots early, building an 11-8 lead before North’s Jabria Leggett hit a buzzer-beating three to end the first quarter.

From there, LHS couldn’t seem to find its rhythm offensively. The Lions made just 13 of 49 shots (27 percent).

“We competed pretty hard, but at the end of the day, they were getting loose balls. They were getting the offensive rebounds. They were getting the extra possessions,” Wood said. “Those

little things were the difference in the game.”

Following a Christina Haswood three, LHS cut the lead to 37-30 with 6:16 remaining.

The Lions weren’t able to get many shots up after that point. Thought LHS had just nine turnovers in the first three quarters combined, it had nine giveaways in the fourth quarter.

“We were just giving them

the ball,” LHS junior forward Monica Howard said.

“Those were valuable possessions that we needed.”

As a result, the Lions scored just four points in the final 6:16 and no points in the final 3 1/2 minutes.

“It felt like just when we were about to turn the corner, make a bigtime run, we didn’t value it enough and we lost our composure,” Wood said.

Howard led LHS, posting 12 points on 5-for-10 shooting with a team-high nine rebounds. Haswood added eight points off the bench, which included 2-for-3 three-point shooting.

North also held a huge advantage at the free throw line, where it made 18 of 32 shots. LHS finished just 5-for-12 from the stripe.

The Eagles also out-rebounded the Lions, 42-26.

Sheble, who made her first six field-goal attempts, finished 7-for-11 from the floor and 6-for-7 from the free throw line.

Free State, 22-7, in that stretch as the Firebirds went 2-for-11 from the field and turned the ball over five times. With that, a 10-point halftime lead for FSHS turned into a five-point deficit with eight minutes to go.

“We knew they would make a run,” Duncan said.

“They’re a great team.

They’re undefeated for a reason. It would’ve been real easy for us to kind of fold.”

The Firebirds already led 13-10 after the first quarter, when Kirkpat-

rick scored seven of her 16 points, and they started piling on in the second, when the Falcons struggled with seven turnovers and 5-for-13 shooting.

Casady (who finished with a game-high 18 points) had seven points, two steals and two rebounds in the second quarter, which she capped with a smooth baseline jumper off a pass from Jackie Garcia with just three seconds remaining.

The shot appeared to give FSHS momentum, and

secured a 31-21 halftime lead.

Duncan said when Casady plays like that, the Firebirds are a tough out.

“She was crucial for us tonight,” Duncan said.

“She just had that look in her eye that she was there to play.”

Firebirds Garcia, Abbey Casady, Lynn Robinson and A’Liyah Rogers scored four points apiece in the loss.

Though the buzzerbeating heartbreaker was difficult for the Firebirds to go through, Duncan

LAWRENCE HIGH FRESHMAN MARISSA POPE, RIGHT, and Olathe North’s Jabria Leggett battle for possession on Friday at LHS.

OLATHE — There isn’t much mystery around what has cost Free State High’s boys basketball team on the road this week.

The Firebirds tried another furious fourth-quarter comeback at Olathe South on Friday night, but again fell short (as they did three days earlier at Leavenworth), this time losing 49-44.

The problem, FSHS coach Chuck Law said, is obvious.

“It’s not like we haven’t talked about trying to find ways to get off to a better start,” the coach said after Free State went 2-for-7 with four turnovers in the first quarter, leading to a 17-5 hole.

It was the second game in a row that the Firebirds (5-11) had a “sleepwalk” stretch against a top-10 team. So even an 18-9 Free State advantage in the fourth quarter left the visitors five points behind No. 9 O-South (12-4).

“We are so listless and so unemotional at the beginning of games and you can’t do that against this team,” Law said. “These guys are good.”

The Falcons held a 4026 lead after three quarters, but Free State mounted a huge counter-attack in the final four minutes.

Senior Brett Frantz (11 points) hit his third threepointer of the night with three and a half minutes left to cut the hole to seven points.

With 3:02 to play, senior forward Gabe Patterson (13 points, 10 rebounds) hit a free throw that cut the O-South lead to 4539. Less than 30 seconds later, he made a short

turn-around jumper off the glass to get Free State within four.

A little more than 30 seconds after that, senior point guard Shawn Knighton drove to the paint and dished to Patterson for another bucket, making it a 46-43 O-South advantage.

Falcons miscues, meanwhile, helped ignite Free State’s late push. O-South was 4-for-11 from the foul line in the fourth quarter before senior Luke Hougland helped salvage the game by going 3-for-4 at the line in the final 29 seconds.

The Firebirds got within two points (46-44) on a Patterson free throw with 1:14 left in the fourth. Still, they couldn’t tie the game or take the lead in the final minute, despite some good looks.

Law said it was a “great effort” by his team just to cut O-South’s lead to two.

“They did everything they were asked to do to get us back in the game, but just couldn’t get that last key basket to fall,” he said.

At 7 p.m. Tuesday, Free State plays host to Shawnee Mission Northwest.

look where he started this year. He’s one of the most improved players in the country. It’s just that when he teases you and shows you what he’s capable of, you always want a little bit more.”

Withey’s breakout game at Baylor — he shattered his old career high scoring mark of 15 points versus Oklahoma on Feb. 1 — came with a batch of NBA scouts in the stands.

He was asked Friday if the presence of the talent evaluators had him extra enthused.

“I don’t really think about that during the game. After the game I realize obviously Baylor has a lot of talent and there were going to be a lot of NBA guys around,” Withey said. “They are going to be everywhere. It doesn’t matter if they are there or watching on TV at home.

It’s cool to be able to play in front of people like that.

It’s an honor. It’s exciting.”

Draftexpress.com currently lists Withey as a mid-second-round NBA draft pick following his senior season (2013). He was asked Friday if more games like Wednesday’s might force him to make a decision about entering the draft or returning to school after this, his junior campaign.

“I am blessed to be where I’m at (KU),” Withey said. “If I can even be blessed to have the opportunity to make a decision, I’ll make the decision at that time. As of right now, I’m just trying to play one game.”

He, Elijah Johnson and Travis Releford would be three returning starters next season.

Tyshawn Taylor (senior) and Thomas Robinson, who is expected to turn pro after his junior campaign, will be the only lost starters.

“We will all be seniors.

OKLAHOMA STATE’S LE’BRYAN NASH (2) SHOOTS against Texas Tech’s Jaye Crockett on Jan. 31 in Lubbock, Texas.

With Ben (McLemore) and Jamari (Traylor) and all the freshmen coming in, that would be a great team,” Withey said.

“We’ve got Perry Ellis coming in. He’s a McDonald’s All-American. And a lot of other guys. The future is bright for sure.”

Withey is trying to help KU (19-5, 9-2) trip Oklahoma State (12-12, 5-6) and stay on course for KU’s eighth straight league title. KU and Missouri are

tied for the league lead at 9-2.

“I know they play kind of small like Missouri with four guards,” Withey said of OSU. “ (Le’Bryan) Nash has been playing well lately and they have a lot of guys who can shoot from the outside. They are very athletic, so we’ll have to be ready to play.”

KU was a finalist for frosh forward Nash, who averages 15.5 points in league play — 13.4 ppg

overall. Guard Keiton Page averages 14.2 ppg.

“They’re fast. They’ve got more highlight dunks and things like that than anybody in our league probably has,” Self said.

“Markel Brown may be the best athlete in our league period. (Brian) Williams is an athlete. Nash is an athlete. (Michael) Cobbins is an athlete. I like their team, and they run good stuff offensively. Last year, we had a pretty good

team, and we blew ‘em out and beat them by one (6362) in Kansas City,” Self added with a smile.

O This, that: KU’s players will wear 1952 throwback jerseys today. ... KU leads the all-time series with Oklahoma State, 104-53.

Harvard edges Penn, 56-50 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — This is one exhilarating stretch for Harvard basketball. Jeremy Lin is an overnight sensation in the NBA, and Corbin Miller and company are working on an undefeated Ivy League schedule.

Miller and Kyle Casey scored 17 points apiece, Keith Wright grabbed 13 rebounds and No. 25 Harvard edged Penn, 56-50, on Friday night.

The Crimson (21-2, 7-0) snapped a tie midway through the second half with an 11-2 run that gave them the needed cushion to hang on for their ninth straight win. Harvard looks to keep its unbeaten conference season alive Saturday at Princeton.

Harvard coach Tommy Amaker said it’s too early to think about a perfect Ivy season.

“We have a long way to go to think of ourselves as anything along those lines,” he said. “We’re working toward becoming a contender on a consistent basis. But right now, we’re full steam ahead with what’s right in front of us.”

The Crimson are rooting just as hard for an Ivy title as they are for a former teammate.

Even at Harvard, “Linsanity” has struck.

Penn’s student section made a sign that read “Not Even Jeremy Could Help You Tonight.”

Harvard could have used Lin — its former star and the latest toast of New York with the Knicks — against the pesky Quakers.

Lin did just about everything at Harvard except lead the Crimson into the NCAA tournament.

Lin scored 25 points Saturday — after crashing at teammate Landry Fields’ place because his brother, with whom he normally stays, had company. He then scored a career-best 28 Monday in his first NBA start, a victory over Utah.

The Crimson were peppered with as many questions about Lin as they were about shutting down Penn’s Zack Rosen and Tyler Bernardini.

Rosen kept the Quakers (12-11, 4-2) in the game with a three-pointer well above the top of the arc that cut it to 53-50 with 23.7 seconds left. The Crimson hung on from the free-throw line and beat Penn for the sixth straight time.

Rosen scored 16 points and Miles Cartwright had 12 for Penn, which has lost two of three to drop out of contention in the conference.

“I think there’s a lot of basketball to be played,” Penn coach Jerome Allen said. “We’re going to need some help.”

Harvard has a firm grip on first.

This could be the season Amaker leads Harvard to the NCAA tournament.

There is no conference tournament for the Ivy, leaving little room for a losing streak.

“This is one of the somewhat drawbacks of our conference is how challenging and difficult it can be to win our league,” Amaker said.

Gillispie happy to be coaching again LUBBOCK, TEXAS (AP) — Billy Gillispie likes where he is, despite a winless Big 12 record so far in his first season at Texas Tech.

Keen to be back coaching after two years away, Gillispie began the season with a Red Raiders roster that included just one starter in three returning players from Pat Knight’s team. There were 10 new players — all but one of them freshmen.

There is talent but not enough experience, said Gillispie, who insists he is OK with his team being winless in 11 conference games. “Overachieved” is how he characterized his team’s performance this year.

“Nobody wants to have the record that we do right now,” he said. “But when you look at the improvement that they’ve made and the approach that they’ve started to take, all the good things that really don’t show up in the final score, I’m very, very proud of where we are.”

Gillispie’s view of the season heading into tonight’s home game against

TEXAS TECH COACH BILLY GILLISPIE GESTURES during the second half of a game against Texas on Feb. 4 in Austin, Texas.

Oklahoma (13-10, 3-8) isn’t unfamiliar.

In his first season at UTEP, the Miners finished 6-24. In his second year, in 2004, Gillispie led UTEP to a share of the WAC title and its first NCAA tournament appearance since 1992 after it went 24-8, tying the NCAA record for most improved team from one season to the next.

At Texas A&M, he led the Aggies to three consecutive 20-win seasons and was chosen AP Big 12 coach of the year in 2005.

Red Raiders fans, who haven’t seen their team in the NCAA tournament since 2007, would love to see the 52-year-old Texan do it again.

Knight was fired after going 50-61 in 3 1/2 seasons. He failed to lead the Red Raiders to the tournament after taking the reins when his famous father resigned during the 2008 season. Pat Knight now coaches at Lamar.

The winless conference record hasn’t hurt recruiting, Gillispie said, adding that responses from re-

cruits overall was better than he imagined.

“We’re way ahead,” Gillispie said. “They’ve seen the track record (of my coaching stops), they know what’s going to happen, they just don’t know when, either. But they know that we need to continue to upgrade our roster to make it happen.”

Texas Tech athletic director Kirby Hocutt said he is “not pleased” with the win-loss record, but he understands.

“I have complete confidence in Billy Gillispie, that he is going to return us to NCAA tournament participation,” said Hocutt, who hired Gillispie last March after less than a month in his own job. “It’s a process and a journey and as much as we want immediate success in the society we live in today that’s not always reasonable.”

The Red Raiders haven’t won a game since Dec. 30.

Gillispie said he and his staff keep the players focused on the next game, and it’s helped.

Gillispie was out of

coaching for two seasons after his firing in 2009 from Kentucky. The Wildcats went 40-27 in his two seasons and missed the NCAA tournament for the first time in 17 years.

Gillispie, who grew up about 250 miles southeast of Lubbock, knew what to expect coming back to West Texas.

“The bottom line is winning, and I’m a winner, and we turn these programs around,” Gillispie said. “But for anyone to think there wasn’t going to be some hard days and some hard times you really haven’t paid very close attention. That’s what happens when you take over a program that needs a little fixing.”

Gillispie isn’t frustrated because he knew what he was taking on.

“If the guys weren’t playing hard, if the guys weren’t having great spirit, if the guys weren’t trying to get better, if they weren’t trying to win then I think that’s the time to get frustrated,” he said.

“But absolutely not. No frustration on my part.”

your will. As tempting as it is to give more to Dora than the others, it could create all sorts of resentments later. The division of your estate should be relatively equal, but you can make special gifts of pieces of jewelry or sentimental items. If you think your children will behave themselves, it can help to discuss this with all of them in advance, asking each child to select one item that they would like to have.

And yes, you can give it to them while you are around to see them enjoy it.

Network fare is rehashed NBC offers viewers a second glance at the pilot of “Smash” (9 p.m.). The show had a healthy audience last Monday, so look for the network to offer viewers plenty of chances to get hooked. It’s certainly spent enough (reported to be more than $25 million) promoting this extravaganza, so it behooves the network to give as many folks as possible the chance to see what all the fuss is about.

I’m still not convinced that a large TV audience will care about the success or failure of a fictional Broadway show. And I don’t see why NBC doesn’t air this program at an earlier hour.

At least once.

“American Idol” and “Glee” regularly air at 7 p.m., and they’re clearly the show’s inspiration. Breaking in a new show at 9 p.m. is always difficult. And debuting one that’s not a familiar police procedural has proved to be nearly impossible.

Prior to “Smash,” NBC will also offer viewers a chance to catch two hours of “The Voice” (7 p.m.).

ABC airs three episodes of “Cougar Town” (8 p.m.) in hopes of reminding viewers that the comedy returns next Tuesday.

“Parking Wars” (8 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., A&E) returns for a fifth season, as does “Billy the Exterminator” (9 p.m., A&E).

Cesar Millan celebrates a milestone of his own with the 150th episode of “Dog Whisperer” (7 p.m., Nat Geo Wild) dedicated to unruly dogs that come between couples and newlyweds. Just in time for Valentine’s Day.

Tonight’s other highlights

John Walsh hosts a two-hour “America’s Most Wanted: Crimes of Passion Special Edition” (7 p.m., Fox).

The Peanuts gang talks of love in the 1975 special “Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown” (7 p.m., ABC).

Revival and confusion on “The Fades” (8 p.m., BBC America).

Gina Holden and Mark Sheppard star in the 2012 adaptation of “Jules Verne’s The Mysterious Island” (8 p.m., Syfy).

Judi Dench and Dev Patel appear on “The Graham Norton Show” (9:15 p.m., BBC America).

Zooey Deschanel hosts “Saturday Night Live” (10:30 p.m., NBC), featuring musical guest Karmin.

Whether this might be going on a playful adventure, getting a massage or anything else that might please you makes no difference. Tonight: Remain nonreactive.

I already have given Dora two nice heirlooms, and I know she would like to have my mother’s sterling silver.

Suicide bombers kill 28 in Syria; rebels deny involvement

By Albert Aji Lee Keath Associated Press

ALEPPO, SYRIA — Two suicide car bombers struck security compounds in Aleppo on Friday, killing 28 people, Syrian officials said, bringing significant violence for the first time to an industrial center that has largely stood by President Bashar Assad during the 11-month uprising against his rule.

Anti-Assad activists denied any involvement and accused the regime of setting off the blasts to smear the opposition as government forces pummel rebels in one of their main strongholds, Homs. State media touted the bombings as proof the regime faces a campaign by terrorists, not a popular uprising.

The military stepped up

Soldiers who have been bombarding the central city made their first ground move, storming into one of the most restive neighborhoods.

Navy names ship for Giffords

By Kim Geiger Tribune Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus announced Friday that the next Independence variant littoral combat ship will be named after Gabrielle Giffords, the former Arizona congresswoman who survived being shot in the head last January when a gunman opened fire as Giffords met with constituents outside a Tucson grocery store.

Six others, including 9-year-old Christina Taylor-Green, were killed in the shooting and 13, including Giffords, were wounded.

Mabus said the ship’s sponsor will be Roxanna Green, Taylor-Green’s mother. In naval tradition, a ship’s sponsor’s “spirit and presence guide the ship throughout its service life,” according to a Defense Department statement.

Giffords was presented with an artist’s rendering of what will be the USS Gabrielle Giffords at a Pentagon ceremony Friday afternoon.

“I am pleased to honor Gabrielle Giffords and the people of Arizona with the naming of this ship,” Mabus said. “Giffords and the ship’s sponsor, Roxanna Green, are sources

of great inspiration and represent the Navy and Marine Corps qualities of overcoming, adapting and coming out victoriously despite great challenges.”

The decision was announced shortly after Giffords visited the White House, where she watched as President Barack Obama signed into law the final bill she introduced as a congresswoman. Giffords retired last month to focus on her recovery.

The morning blasts in Aleppo, Syria’s most populous city, ripped apart the facades of the local headquarters of the Military Intelligence Directorate and a barracks of the Security Preservation forces.

At the Directorate, windows were shattered and a large crater was torn into the pavement outside the entrance. A weeping correspondent on staterun TV showed graphic footage of at least five corpses, collected in sacks and under blankets by the side of the road.

Security officials said suicide bombers in explosives-packed vehicles tried to smash through the entrances of both sites. At the barracks, Brig. Firas Abbas told an Associated Press reporter on a gov-

BISMARCK, N.D. — Facing pressure to bring in more students as North Dakota’s booming oil industry made it tougher to coax new high school graduates into college, Dickinson State University began looking overseas to boost its enrollment.

China, which sends more students to U.S. universities than any other nation, became one of the school’s more reliable suppliers of young people.

But as an audit made public Friday revealed, lax recordkeeping and oversight resulted in hundreds of degrees being awarded to students who didn’t finish their course work. Others enrolled who couldn’t speak English or hadn’t achieved the “C’’ average normally required for admission.

The report depicts Dickinson State as a diploma mill for foreign students, most of whom Lawrence

were Chinese. Of 410 foreign students who have received four-year degrees since 2003 — most of them in the past four years — 400 did not fulfill all the graduation requirements, it said.

The report raises questions about whether public universities, strapped for cash at a time of sharply declining state support for higher education, are cutting corners to attract foreign students who typically pay full out-of-state tuition. It also comes amid an unprecedented boom in the number of Chinese students studying at U.S. universities.

Dickinson State could face penalties from the U.S. State Department for violations of the federal student visa program, as well as sanctions from the Department of Education, the Department of Homeland Security and the Higher Learning Commission in Chicago, an accreditation agency, the report said.

William Goetz, chancellor of the North Dakota university system, and Dickinson State’s new president, D.C. Coston, did not respond to emails and phone calls from The Associated Press. They held a news conference Friday in Dickinson to present the audit’s findings.

“We will be telling (the affected students) that their records do not indicate they sufficiently completed the requirements,” Coston said at the news conference.

“Dickinson State stands ready to work with them individually to figure out what might be necessary for them to reach a point of completion.”

Coston also held a meeting with students that was interrupted by a university lockdown after a professor was reported missing with a gun. Doug LaPlante, 59, was found dead of an apparent selfinflicted gunshot wound Friday afternoon near a Dickinson intersection, police said.

Capt. Ammar al-Wawi of the Free Syrian Army, a rebel group that wants to bring down the regime by force, denied involvement. He said fighters from his group had a short gunbattle with troops several hundred yards from the Directorate about an hour before the explosion but did not carry out the bombings.

“This explosion is the work of the regime to divert world attention from the crimes it is committing against the people of Homs,” he said.

The blasts were the fourth such dramatic suicide attack since late December. All occurred on Friday mornings against various security headquarters and prompted the same exchange of accusations.

State television cited the Health Ministry as saying 28 people were killed in the two blasts and 235 wounded. The dead included 11 security personnel killed at the barracks, 13 military personnel killed at the military intelligence building and four civilians, security officials said.

State TV blamed “terrorists.” But anti-government activists accused the regime of setting off the blasts to discredit the opposition and avert protests that had been planned in the city on Friday.

Netflix and Hulu air new scripted originals

By Jake Coyle Associated Press

NEW YORK — Within just over a week, Netflix and Hulu are both debuting their first stabs at original scripted programming.

The shows amount to a milestone in Internet television, an early sign of the leveling between broadcasting and streaming. Programming options between TV and the Web are increasingly separated by little more than the “video source” button on your remote.

But the most salient thing about the new offerings from Netflix and Hulu are just how “TV” they are.

Earlier this week, Netflix released all eight episodes of “Lilyhammer,” a fish-out-of-water drama starring Steve Van Zandt (“The Sopranos”) as a New York mobster relocated to Norway. On Tuesday, Hulu will premiere “Battleground,” a faux-documentary sitcom about the young operatives of a middling political campaign in Wisconsin.

Each has a broadcast pedigree. “Lilyhammer” was produced for the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (a lesser known NBC) and began airing there in January. As a script, “Battleground” was initially purchased by Fox

(whose corporate parent, News Corp., is a co-owner of Hulu, along with Walt Disney Co. and NBCUniversal).

That both “Battleground” and “Lilyhammer” look and feel so much like broadcast shows is a signal of their high-quality (though “Lilyhammer” is notably better made) and their lack of innovation.

These are ultimately just a couple of new shows among hundreds, only ones consumable through a new distribution method.

The 50-minute “Lilyhammer,” for which Van Sandt is also a producer and writer, is the more intriguing of the two. It often feels almost like a parody of a “Sopranos” spinoff: If we’re going to have Silvio in Scandinavia, then how about Paulie Walnuts in Walla Walla? Or Uncle Junior in Jakarta?

“Battleground,” judging by its first two episodes, is a light, watered-down knockoff of “The Office,” moved a little farther west and focusing on a slightly younger demographic. Its 13 episodes will debut every Tuesday.

For Hulu and Netflix, the shows don’t need to be masterpieces, just conversation-starters — drops of newness to freshen up their extensive libraries and garner media coverage in articles like this one.
