The old hand of the Lawrence City Commission finished Tuesday’s primary election with the upper hand, but two newcomers also closed in on commission seats. City Commissioner Mike Amyx, who is seeking his fifth term on the commission, took the top spot in Tuesday’s primary election, besting the 11-candidate field by more than 500 votes.

Slushy storm better for street crews, not for trees By Matt Erickson, Sara Shepherd and Ian Cummings

The second snowstorm to move through Lawrence in less than a week closed schools, cut power to some homes and reduced turnout for the city’s primary election Tuesday. But the snowfall wasn’t as heavy as expected, and the wet snow made for easier work for city road crews. In all, the city received 5 to 7 inches of snow before the storm ended around noon, according to the National Weather Service, on top of as much as 11 inches from ThursSara Shepherd/Journal-World Photo

Area streets and trees were packed with snow, and more than 1,500 Douglas County residents were without power in the morning as Lawrence woke up to its second major winter storm in less than a week.

Sequestration to have no immediate effect on schools By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

The Lawrence school district probably will not have to make immediate cuts to federally funded programs for the rest of this academic year if automatic U.S. government funding cuts take effect as scheduled on Friday. “We would have enough in reserves in those funds to get us through this school year, so we would not have to make immediate cuts,” Lawrence Superintendent Rick Doll said in an interview after the Lawrence school board meeting Monday night. Thursday is the deadline

for Congress and President Obama to reach agreement on a deficit reduction package before a series of automatic, across-the-board cuts known as Doll “sequestration” take effect. The federal cuts would mainly affect two programs in Lawrence and other public school districts: Title I funding, which provides supplemental money to high-poverty schools; and special education services under the

Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act, or IDEA. Federal funding for subsidized school lunches would be exempt from the sequestration cuts, according to the Congressional Research Service. “We don’t know, but we think we have enough reserves to get us through on the Title I and the special ed piece to get us through this year so we don’t have to make any immediate cuts if that happens,” Doll said. Although state and local officials have not been given exact numbers, Doll said he has heard estimates that the cuts would be between 8 percent and 10 per-

cent of annual spending. According to state-by-state estimates released by the White House this week, the cuts would mean a loss to Kansas schools of about $5.5 million in Title I funding and $5.3 million in special education funding. The Lawrence district has six elementary schools that qualify for Title I funding: Hillcrest, Kennedy, New York, Pinckney, Schwegler and Woodlawn. According to the district’s budget for this year, it expects to receive about $1.8 million in federal Title I funding and about $2.3 million in federal special education funding.

The April 2 election will determine the three winners who will join incumbents Bob Schumm and Mike Dever on the City Commission. Amyx said he felt the election turned on concerns about city finances and spending on new projects. “There is a lot of concern from voters about their paychecks and the amount of money going out the door right now,� Amyx, a downtown barbershop owner, said. “I think people view me as a good fiscal manager, and that is what I’ll focus on in the future.� The primary results could be seen as a mixed message from voters on the proposed Rock Chalk Park recreation center project: Amyx opposes it, but Farmer and Riordan have generally indicated they favor it. But the clearest conclusion that came out of Tuesday’s primary may have been what didn’t happen: Large numbers of residents didn’t vote, apparently due to a snowstorm that hit the city as polls were opening.

LORRAINE KAY LICCARDI Lorraine Kay Liccardi, 55, of Topeka, KS passed February 20, 2013 at her home, following a hard, 1&1/2 year fight against Endometrial Cancer. She was born July 16, 1957 at Seneca, KS, the daughter of Donald P. and Teresa M. (Wiltz) Stallbaumer. Lorraine grew up in Seneca and Sabetha. She graduated in 1975 from Nemaha Valley High School, and remained close with several childhood friends, including her best friend, Dana. Lorraine loved to be social, and was a member of “The Witches� Pool League. She had so many good friends, so many good times, and so many great stories. Mosaics, photography, crocheting, anything she set her mind to, she showed she was a very talented artist. Lorraine even received a 1st place trophy for a record set at a powerlifting competition in 2002. Lorraine gave birth to a beautiful baby girl in February of 1975, Veronica Rae Stallbaumer. She met a great guy, Jerry Liccardi, and they were married in June of 1984. As life throws us all curve balls, they would later divorce in 1991. However, they would remain good friends eternally. Later, in 2000, she met another good guy, and after a ten year courtship, she married Brian Mott in June of 2010. They remained together until her passing. Lorraine began working for Southwestern Bell in June of 1975 as a Telephone Operator, and after 37 years, retired from AT&T in January of 2013, as a Telecommunications Technician. She was a proud member of CWA Local 6407. She was always

Chestnut, chief financial officer for a Topekabased company and former city commissioner: 1,769

Criqui, an executive with Lawrence-based Trinity In-Home Care and a member of the city’s Human Relations Commission: 1,677

Soden, owner of a Lawrence pet care business and former president of the East Lawrence Neighborhood Association: 1,532 The five candidates not moving on are:

Judy Bellome: 1,296

Michael Rost: 351

Reese Hays: 308

Will Olson: 100

Nicholas Marlo: 39 The race featured only one incumbent, Amyx, although Chestnut is only two years removed from the commission. Voters, however, were open to new faces on Tuesday. Farmer, 29, said economic issues continue to be a major theme he hears from residents. “People want to be able to grow up here and retire here, and right now with the tax base and job situation, people are finding that difficult to do,� he said. All of Tuesday’s results are unofficial. They won’t become official until election officials canvass — or make a final review — of the ballots on Monday. Douglas County Clerk Jamie Shew said there were about 150 provisional ballots that still need to be added to the totals, but that number is not expected to make a difference in the outcome of the six candidates moving on to the general election.

day’s storm. Gusts up to 30 mph will continue to blow snow around and reduce visibility this morning, National Weather Service meteorologist Jenifer Bowen said. The good news: The NWS forecast shows high temperatures above freezing for the next few days and rising into the 40s at the beginning of next week. City snowplows cleared main roads early in the day Tuesday and then moved onto neighborhood streets during the afternoon. Last week, that didn’t happen until the morning after the storm hit. “It’s heavy. It’s wet. It’s slushy,� city of Lawrence spokeswoman Megan Gilliland said of Tuesday’s snow. “We’re actually seeing some water pooling at intersections from the melting.� The wet snow stuck to tree branches and power lines in the morning, leading to cracked and fallen trees and power outages for hundreds in Douglas County.

Many took advantage of advance voting over the past couple of days to cast their ballots. Turnout picked up a bit during the afternoon, but still was reported to be light. City crews weren’t the only ones working hard to clear the snow. An army of landscapers and private contractors were working around the clock — using everything from tractors to snowblowers to shovels — to clear parking lots and sidewalks across the city. Matt Blair, with Lawrence Landscape, had been pushing a snowblower up sidewalks for more than 12 hours, since 1 a.m. Tuesday. “We work till we get it done,� he said over the motor of the snowblower. By 2:30 p.m., he admitted he was ready to be done with the snow. “But it’s a job,� he added. The effects of the storm were worse outside Lawrence, where heavier accumulations and blowing snow made travel difficult. The heaviest snow from the storm fell in a narrow area that missed Lawrence. Parts of Osage County reported up to 10 inches. The snow turned major roads such as I-70 and K-10 into snowpack and then slush for much of the day. But authorities reported few accidents or other incidents from the weather. Elsewhere in Kansas, state officials reported two fatalities on I-70 related to the winter storm that started moving through the state Sunday. One person died in an accident in Ellis County, near Hays, Monday night, and another died Monday morning in Sherman County, near Goodland.

A project to improve traffic flow near Ninth and Kentucky streets is set to begin in July. Lawrence city commissioners on Tuesday approved a plan to widen Ninth Street between Kentucky and Tennessee streets to accommodate a center turn lane. “I have seen a lot of accidents at those two intersections,� Mayor Bob Schumm said. “This really will be an improvement.� Schumm The design also will allow for eastbound and westbound bike lanes on Ninth Street.

Alec Joseph Shanelec was arrested at the Lawrence Police Department’s offices in the Judicial and Law Enforcement Building, 111 E. 11th St., about 1 p.m. Tuesday and booked into Douglas County Jail on suspicion of aggravated battery.

Q:

Over a year ago the Kansas State Board of Education found that the Lawrence school district had retained far too much money in the district’s contingency fund. What was the exact dollar amount of that overage? The state mandated that those funds be spent. Has this money been spent? If so, how exactly was the money spent? The amount of money a district is allowed to hold in a contingency reserve fund is set by statute. The Kansas State Board of Education has no role in regulating that amount. According to information provided by the Lawrence school district, the cap has been set at 10 percent of the district’s general fund expenditures since Fiscal Year 2009. That law had a sunset provision, meaning if the law had not been renewed, the cap would have reverted to 6 percent of expenditures. In 2011, the Kansas Legislature allowed the sunset to expire, meaning the Lawrence school district would have had to spend down about $3 million from its contingency reserve fund for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012. However, midway through the fiscal year, the 2012 Legislature reversed that decision and passed a bill permanently setting the cap at 10 percent. For the current fiscal year, the district has budgeted to end the year with $6.6 million in its contingency reserve fund, which is 9.966 percent of its budgeted general fund expenditures for the year.

come, pregnant women, people with disabilities and elderly people. The $2.8 billion program is funded with federal and state dollars. Medicaid in Kansas doesn’t cover low-income adults who don’t have children. And a nondisabled adult with children is eligible only if his or her income is below 32 percent of the poverty level, which is approximately $5,000 per year. That is about the most difficult eligibility level in the country. But starting in 2014, the ACA creates an eligibility level of 138 percent of the federal poverty level, which is $15,415 per year for an individual and $26,344 per year for a family of three.

sans would be covered under the expansion. The federal government would pay all the costs of expansion for three years and then ratchet that down to 90 percent of the cost over the next several years. Numerous Kansas hospitals and health care providers had urged the committee to reject the resolution. A statewide poll conducted on behalf of the Kansas Hospital Association found that 60 percent of Kansans support expanding Medicaid. After learning that Medicaid expansion would bring $800 million in federal funds to Kansas over three years, 62 percent of Kansans supported the expansion. The poll of 610 Kansans was conducted in December and has a margin of error rate of plus or minus 4 percent.

Hagel confirmed for defense post WASHINGTON (AP) — A deeply divided Senate voted on Tuesday to confirm Republican Chuck Hagel to be the nation’s next defense secretary, handing President Barack Obama’s pick the top Pentagon job just days before billions of dollars in automatic, across-the-board budget cuts hit the military. The vote was 58-41, with four Republicans joining the Democrats in backing the contentious choice. Hagel’s only GOP support came from former colleagues Thad Cochran of Mississippi, Dick Shelby of Alabama and Mike Johanns of Nebraska — all three had announced their support earlier — and Rand Paul of Kentucky.

The vote came just hours after Republicans dropped their unprecedented delay of a Hagel Pentagon choice and allowed the nomination to move forward on a 71-27 vote. Hagel, 66, a former two-term Nebraska senator and twice-wounded Vietnam combat veteran, succeeds Defense Secretary Leon Panetta. Hagel is expected to be sworn in at the Pentagon today. Hagel joins Obama’s retooled second-term, national security team of Secretary of State John Kerry and CIA Director-

designate John Brennan at a time of uncertainty for a military emerging from two wars and fighting worldwide terrorism with smaller, deficit-driven budgets. Among his daunting challenges are deciding on troop levels in Afghanistan as the United States winds down its combat presence and dealing with $46 billion in budget cuts set to kick in on Friday. He also will have to work with lawmakers who spent weeks vilifying him. Republicans had opposed their onetime colleague, casting him as unqualified for the job, hostile toward Israel and soft on Iran.

Reading initiative fails to advance By John Milburn Associated Press

TOPEKA — A Kansas Senate committee on Tuesday narrowly rejected Gov. Sam Brownback’s proposal to hold back third-graders who fail the state reading test. The 6-5 vote means the bill remains in the Senate Education Committee, where its prospects for the remainder of the session are uncertain. Brownback wants to bar schools from promoting third-graders to fourth grade if they fail to read at a proficient level on state tests. The bill also included a grant system for early education programs aimed at boosting reading skills. The Republican governor was disappointed following the vote. He has made improving fourthgrade reading proficiency a goal of his administration, first broaching the concept during the 2010 gubernatorial campaign and later announcing the initiative during his State

of the State address in January. “It’s early in the process. We’ll work with legislators,� Brownback said. “It’s an important topic.� Opponents, including Republicans and both Democrats on the committee, questioned the bill’s impact on students and the lack of parental involvement in the decision to hold students back a grade. Sen. Dan Kerschen, a freshman Republican from Garden Plain, said school districts already have the authority to retain students and that local control of the process was working well. Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, a teacher, said the bill was “bad public policy� and that more focus should be on the causes of poor reading scores and early learning programs. “It makes absolutely no sense. We’re making a serious mistake if we think we’re going to pass this bill in this legislative session,� said Hensley, a Topeka Democrat.

Sen. Jeff Melcher, a Leawood Republican, said the cost to the state in future school years to promote a child who wasn’t prepared to succeed was potentially greater than the cost of retaining the student or providing other resources. “How many resources are wasted by allowing a nonreading fourth-grader to move on?� Melcher said. Sen. Steve Abrams, an Arkansas City Republican and chairman of the committee, had amended the bill to allow for schools to give students a chance to take a second, alternative test to measure their reading proficiency. The move, which Brownback approved of, addressed concerns that the bill was too harsh and didn’t take into account students who may have had extenuating circumstances that affected the outcome of the first exam. Abrams said it was unclear whether the reading proposal would surface again this session, which ends in May.

Notable Beer lovers across the U.S. have accused Anheuser-Busch of watering down its Budweiser, Michelob and other brands, in class-action suits seeking millions in damages. Budweiser and Michelob each boast of being 5 percent alcohol, while some “light� versions are said to be just over 4 percent. Lead lawyer Josh Boxer of San Rafael, Calif., says former Anheuser-Busch employees have said it is corporate practice to water down products. The excess water is added just before bottling and cuts the stated alcohol content by 3 percent to 8 percent, he said.

Music, movie groups plan piracy offensive WASHINGTON (AP) — Internet users who illegally share music, movies or TV shows online may soon get warning notices from their service providers that they are violating copyright law. Ignore the notices, and violators could face an Internet slow-down for 48 hours. Those who claim they’re innocent can protest — for a fee. For the first time since a spate of aggressive and unpopular lawsuits almost a decade ago, the music and movie industries are going after Internet users they accuse of swapping copyrighted files online. But unlike the lawsuits from the mid-2000s — which swept up everyone from young kids to the elderly with sometimes ruinous financial penalties and court costs — the latest effort is aimed at educating casual Internet pirates and convincing them to stop. There are multiple chances to make amends and no immediate legal consequences under the program if they don’t. The Copyright Alert System was put into effect this week by the nation’s five biggest Internet service providers — Verizon, AT&T, Time Warner Cable, Comcast and Cablevision — and the two major associations representing industry — the Motion Picture Association of America and the Record-

DILBERT

ing Industry Association of America. Under the new program, the industry will monitor “peer-to-peer� software services for evidence of copyrighted files being shared. Each complaint will prompt a customer’s Internet provider to notify the customer that their Internet address has been detected sharing files illegally. Depending on the service provider, the first couple of alerts will likely be an email warning. Subsequent alerts might require a person to acknowledge receipt or review educational materials. If a final warning is ignored, a person could be subject to speed-throttling for 48 hours or another similar “mitigation measure.� While proponents say it’s not the intention of the program, it’s possible the alert system will be used to initiate lawsuits. The number of Internet users subject to the new system is a sizable chunk of the U.S. population. Verizon and AT&T alone supply more than 23 million customers. The Motion Picture Association of America estimates some 29 million people have downloaded or watched unauthorized movies or TV shows online, mostly using technology such as BitTorrent, a popular peer-to-peer protocol.

Brazil’s economy must look outward

EDITORIALS

Medicaid equation Some new studies help clarify the Medicaid expansion choice that faces Kansas.

S

ometimes it’s good to stand on principle, but sometimes, by taking a rigid stand, you’re just cutting off your nose to spite your face. That’s sort of the choice facing Kansas legislators and the governor when it comes to accepting the expansion of Medicaid in the state as part of the federal Affordable Care Act. Kansas is one of a handful of states that has not agreed to the expansion, which will be fully funded by the federal government for the first three years and 90 percent funded by federal dollars after that. Gov. Sam Brownback has expressed concern about the cost of expanding Medicaid and shares the concern of some state legislators about accepting federal funds that they fear may not be available in the future. They also are adamantly opposed to the Care Act and see refusing the Medicaid funds as one of the few avenues available to them to protest the implementation of that law. A number of Kansans may agree with that principle, but the practicality of this issue was brought into clearer focus this week in news reports about the release of a couple of studies about the impact of the Medicaid expansion on Kansas. Those studies came from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the Kansas Hospital Association. KDHE estimated that the Medicaid expansion would provide coverage for about 226,000 Kansans and would cost the state about $616 million more than without the expansion. The hospital association essentially agreed with that cost figure but went on to look at the impact of an estimated $2.2 billion influx of federal matching funds that would be part of the expansion. According to the hospital group, the expanded Medicaid program would generate 3,500 to 4,000 new health care jobs and contribute about $112 million in new state tax revenue over the next seven years. It also estimated that the state would save $312.5 million it now spends to cover the cost of care for indigent patients. Balancing the costs against the benefits, the hospital association concluded the state would come out about $82 million ahead over the next seven years. Other staunch opponents of the Affordable Care Act — notably Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer — have reached the conclusion that their states have too much to lose by not accepting the federal Medicaid funding. If Kansas stands on principle and refuses those funds, no one in Kansas will pay less federal tax; that money simply will go to other states while 226,000 Kansans go without health care coverage and continue to place pressure on hospital emergency rooms and indigent care funds. This may not be an easy choice for Kansas lawmakers, but as they consider the expanded Medicaid program they have to consider how much a decision to stand on principle by rejecting this federal funding could or would cost the state in the long run.

Brazil, South America’s biggest country, may become a global economic superstar in the future, but it will have to stop being an inward-looking giant. There is new evidence that, despite President Dilma Rousseff’s announcement last week that Brazil will have a record grain crop this year, the country’s huge oil discoveries, and the unique propaganda opportunity Brazil will gain from hosting the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games, recent trade trends don’t bode well for the country. The World Bank last week published a report entitled The Brazilian Competitiveness Cliff that shows Brazil’s exports of high-valued industrial goods aren’t doing well. It says Brazil is facing “considerable competitiveness challenges.” Translation: the country is falling behind other emerging powers. The report, written by World Bank economists Otaviano Canuto, Matheus Cavallari and Jose Guilherme Reis, says that Brazil’s overall exports have more than doubled in recent years, largely thanks to a steep rise in world commodity prices. But that’s way below the export performance of other big emerging countries, it says. While Brazil’s exports of goods and services grew by 262 percent over the past decade, the average export growth for other emerging economic powers such as Russia, India, China and South Africa was 439 percent, the study says. Brazil’s trade integration with other countries “is among

While Brazil’s exports of goods and services grew by 262 percent over the past decade, the average export growth for other emerging economic powers such as Russia, India, China and South Africa was 439 percent, the study says.”

the lowest in the world,” and there are “no recent signs of improvement,” it says. While trade accounted for 29 percent of Brazil’s economic output in 2005, the figure fell to 23 percent in 2010, it says. What’s worse, while Brazil is by far Latin America’s leader in high-tech exports — its Embraer planes, for instance, are among the world’s best-selling aircraft, “there is a clear reduction in the share of high-technology exports in recent years,” the report says. The share of high-technology exports fell from 10.4 percent of Brazil’s total exports in 2000 to 5 percent in 2010.

Conversely, Brazil’s share of commodity exports — mainly soybean sales to China — increased from 46 percent to 63 percent over the same period, the report says. In other words, Brazil has become too food exportsdependent, and too Chinadependent. Over the past decade, Brazil’s high-tech exports have grown by a modest 36 percent, compared with China and India whose high-tech exports increased by 873 percent and 389 percent respectively, the report says. Among the reasons behind Brazil’s unimpressive export performance are the country’s overvalued currency, which makes labor costs more expensive, low productivity, high logistics costs, and a maddening government bureaucracy that increases the costs of doing business, the report says. “The Brazilian government is very conscious of these issues, and is moving to correct them,” Canuto, the report’s lead author, told me in a telephone interview. “But it must act fast, because the growth factors that worked well for the country in recent years have exhausted themselves. World commodity prices will not keep growing as they have in the past 10 years,” he added. Other economists see a brighter picture, stressing that Brazil’s economic growth is likely to recover from an anemic 1 percent last year to 3.5 percent this year, and that Rousseff’s government plans new infrastructure auctions to the private

sector that indicate a shift away from statist policies. Also, unlike most of its neighbors, Brazil is taking serious steps to crack down on corruption and to improve education standards. Rousseff recently launched a plan to send 100,000 Brazilian university graduates to pursue mostly science and engineering degrees in U.S. and European universities. My opinion: I’m a great fan of Rousseff’s anti-corruption campaign, and of her moves to internationalize Brazil’s higher education system, as well as of her social programs for the poor. In almost every aspect — except its foreign policy, which remains too friendly with some of the world’s worst dictatorships — Brazil should be a model for its neighbors. But Brazil must insert itself faster into the global economy. At a time when the world seems to be moving into free trade mega-blocs, such as the Trans-Atlantic Partnership announced Feb. 12 by President Obama that would create a U.S.-European Union free trade bloc, Brazil cannot afford not to have free trade agreements with the United States, the European Union, or virtually any other free trade bloc outside its neighborhood. Brazil can’t keep relying on its domestic consumption either, nor on ever-rising commodity prices. If it doesn’t cease being a self-absorbed giant, it risks becoming a “once-emerging power.” — Andres Oppenheimer is a Latin America correspondent for the Miami Herald.

From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for Feb. 27, 1913: “The heaviest police YEARS court fine on the records AGO of the Lawrence court IN 1913 was passed yesterday afternoon against C. V. Williams, a north side cobbler. Williams was convicted yesterday afternoon of violations of the prohibitory law … Williams … has been conducting a small shoe shop at 302 Rhode Island. He dispensed soda water on the side to increase the profits of his business. Recently complaint was made to the authorities that refreshments were not limited to pop and that whiskey was being sold at the place.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Gaps threaten dropout progress By Robert Balfanz and John Bridgeland

The nation’s high school dropout challenge is no longer a silent epidemic and many of America’s dropout factories are closing or being retooled. Our annual update to the nation provides both encouraging evidence that reform efforts are bearing fruit and disturbing news about the graduation gaps that remain. The most recent data show that the nation has experienced the first significant growth in high school graduation rates in 40 years. Pushed forward by a five percentage point gain between 2006 and 2010, the country is finally on pace to reach the national goal of a 90 percent high school graduation rate. Students who graduated in 2010 entered high school in 2006, when efforts to reform large, low-performing high schools that produced the most dropouts were intensifying. Examples of states, districts and schools making significant gains in graduation rates are growing, from Tennessee and Alabama, to the cities of New York and Cincinnati, and to schools in Washington County, Md., and Houston. The poster school for TIME’s Dropout Nation in Shelbyville, Ind., boosted its graduation rate from about 70 percent seven

years ago to 90 percent today. The states of Vermont and Wisconsin have already met the 90 percent goal. Other evidence of accelerating progress reinforces these gains. There are 583 fewer dropout factory high schools (graduating fewer than 60 percent of their students) and 1 million fewer students attending them in 2011 than in 2002, with a pace of progress much faster in the last half of the decade than the first. A more accurate calculation of graduation rates used in 47 states across the country shows nearly half have graduation rates of 80 percent or better. Encouragingly, the greatest gains have been among the populations and in the states with the furthest progress to make to strengthen our opportunity society, among Hispanics, African-Americans, and the high-poverty states of the south. But our national leaders have been good at sounding alarms, setting national education goals, and not meeting

them. The groundbreaking 1983 “A Nation at Risk” report offered sober evidence of our educational decline, while citing rising high school graduation rates over previous decades as a ray of hope. Three successive presidents challenged the nation to reach the 90 percent high school graduation rate goal by certain dates, only to see those deadlines missed or the pace of progress too slow to meet them. The story this year is also full of challenges. Twentythree states are not on pace to meet the 90 percent goal. While the greatest gains have been among students of color, graduation gaps among students of various races, ethnicities and needs remain so large they imperil progress. One-third or more of African-American students in 20 states and Hispanic students in 16 states will not make it to the graduation line with their class. There are no states in which the graduation rate for white students is so low. For students with disabilities or limited English proficiency, graduation rates are often far worse. The last decade ushered in an era of progress, starting with the reforms of No Child Left Behind to close achievement gaps and boost graduation rates. Multiple sectors focused on breaking up,

reforming or replacing the lowest-performing schools, creating more personalized learning environments and seeing the critical importance of extra supports for students entering 9th grade. In recent years, reforms have included using early warning systems to identify those students whose chronic absence, bad behavior, and poor performance in reading and math signal early trouble. With better data, nonprofits have retooled to match the tutors, mentors, and caring adults with those students most in need. This past decade’s gains show that progress is possible, but it also highlights how far the nation has to go in creating an opportunity society that ensures all students have an equal chance to finish high school, ready for college and the workforce. To achieve this end, we must spread and sustain what we now know works to the communities and students who need it the most. — Robert Balfanz is director of the Everyone Graduates Center at Johns Hopkins University’s School of Education and John Bridgeland is CEO of Civic Enterprises.

KANSAS MEN’S BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Cyclones give boost to college hoops AMES, IOWA — The ugliness of the aftermath late Monday night deflected attention from the prettiest college basketball game in this season littered with ugly ones. The return of beautiful basketball for 45 minutes Monday night in Hilton Coliseum can be traced to two factors. No. 1: Iowa State coach Fred Hoiberg’s fastpaced, spread-the-floor-andlet-the-shooters-shoot brand of basketball. No. 2: Kansas can compete and win games played at every pace. KU wins the majority of close games and Iowa State tends to lose them, in part a function of Kansas playing more sound defense. Give Hoiberg credit for elevating the Iowa State program in terms of victories and popularity, even though the Cyclones fell just short, 108-96, in overtime on a night two calls from officials went against the Cyclones late in regulation. Basketball programs across America that repeatedly find themselves on the wrong side of the NCAA Tournament bubble need to emulate what Hoiberg is doing. He gets more out of transfers than their previous coaches because he encourages them to shoot and frees their minds. “We’re playing with a tremendous amount of confidence on the offensive end, as much as any team I’ve been around,” Hoiberg said. “We share the ball. We space the floor. We trust each other at that end of the court. We just have to carry it over and find a way to grind out those stops when they matter most.” Both teams hit big shot after big shot, so many of them tightly guarded. “I know Fred’s crushed and I would be too if the outcome were different because both teams played so well,” Self said afterward. ‘He’ll watch the tape and I’ll watch the tape. I guarantee you I don’t know if we’ve had two teams in the same game execute as well offensively as both teams did tonight. That was two

AN IOWA STATE FAN, CENTER, IS RESTRAINED BY COURTSIDE SECURITY after approaching and yelling at Kansas coach Bill Self, left, following the Jayhawks’ overtime victory on Monday in Ames, Iowa. Self discussed the encounter on Tuesday and said he did not feel threatened by the man, who was escorted away without incident.

Self downplays run-in with ISU fan; Big 12 eyes no-call

“

By Gary Bedore

It was not a serious deal at all like people made it out to be. ... I didn’t feel in the least bit like anything would come of that. It was a fan voicing himself in a way he was a little animated.”

gbedore@ljworld.com

A middle-aged man in glasses wearing a gold Iowa State shirt yelled insults in the face of Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self after the Jayhawks’ 108-96 overtime win over the Cyclones late Monday night in Hilton Coliseum. “I don’t think I got rushed. That dude didn’t really come at me. I really think I could have taken him without any problem,” Self joked on Tuesday’s Hawk Talk radio show. A police officer grabbed the man and escorted him away from KU’s coach. “It was not a serious deal at all like people made it out to be. Maybe his body language made it look differently,” Self added of a person he heard was “a big booster of the Cyclones.” “I didn’t feel in the least bit like anything would come of that. It was a fan voicing himself in a way he was a little animated. The words weren’t bad.”

— Kansas basketball coach Bill Self on a postgame encounter with an Iowa State fan after Monday’s game

Self did say it was a bit alarming fans were so close to the players after a hotly contested game. Several ISU students pelted the Jayhawk players with debris as they headed to the locker room. “They could probably make some corrections to make sure they (fans) don’t have access to players after a game like that,” Self said. “I know when we’ve been at Missouri in heated times, there’s security escorting the players out. After the handshake line it probably could be tightened up a bit.” Des Moines TV station WOI-DT reported Tuesday that Iowa State police confirmed they were investigating two Twitter death

threats to Elijah Johnson, who dunked at the end of the game rather than running out the clock. Screenshots taken by other Twitter users on Monday night showed one person suggesting attacking the KU bus with “30 bullets” and another making racist comments directed at Johnson. Both Twitter accounts had been deactivated by Tuesday evening. “I guess there were some things said, some threats made. That is sad,” Self told the Journal-World. “That person should be investigated and looked at. You can’t take things like that for granted. The person making those statements ... that situation needs to be looked into.”

Self said he had received a nice e-mail from an Iowa State student. “The student said he hated how fans coming on the court throwing things totally took away from what was a good night,” Self said. “I responded. I said, ‘Hey it was a good night. Even if the outcome was different, I’d say it was a great atmosphere and fun game to be part of.’ I was never nervous about it. There were some things being thrown. It’s just frustration. I will say this about Iowa State fans: I like them. They are good. They are loyal and enthusiastic.” O League weighs in on nocall: The Big 12 Conference released the following statement Tuesday: “The Big 12 Conference acknowledges that officiating errors were made at the end of regulation during last night’s Kansas at Iowa State men’s basketball game.

City basketball squads turn attention to sub-state Fresh off victory, FSHS boys confident By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

If Free State High boys basketball coach Chuck Law had a choice, his Firebirds would open the postseason with the comfort and familiarity of facing one of its Sunflower League foes in the first round of sub-state. That’s not how the Class 6A bracket worked out, however. The Firebirds hit the road today for a 7 p.m. game at Gardner-Edgerton. “I think the fear of the known is better than the fear of the unknown,” Law said, describing the negatives of facing a team for the first time in the playoffs. According to the coach,

FSHS (9-11) could have prepared more easily for a fellow Sunflower program, such as Lawrence or Olathe East, than GEHS (12-8), an unknown Eastern Kansas League commodity. The Blazers’ physicality and talent is one matter; scouting against their various game plans is another. “They run a million sets on offense, they run a multitude of different defenses and switch up quite frequently,” Law said. “When you have two days to prepare ... that’s a little confounding.” Considering all the cons of taking on a foreign opponent, FSHS junior forward Khadre Lane said he and fellow Please see FIREBIRDS, page 4B

LHS boys out to prove recent loss a fluke By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

After ending the regular season with losses in three of their last four games, members of Lawrence High’s boys basketball team trust their resiliency to carry them out of a funk just in time for the postseason. “We’ve played some good teams and it’s been a rough stretch,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said of losses to Shawnee Mission South, Olathe East and rival Free State the past two weeks. “There’s no getting around it.” The most troubling setback came just five days ago, in the regular-season finale at Free State. Senior Lions

guard Jake Mosiman said it wasn’t Lawrence’s night and the stats backed him up. LHS made just 13 of its 49 shots (27 percent). “We couldn’t shoot, we couldn’t make layups — in the first half, at least. It was crazy,” Mosiman said. “Everything was rolling out, and that’s not us. We know that.” Neither Lewis, nor starters Mosiman, Austin Abbott, Drake Hofer, Anthony Bonner, Justin Roberts and their teammates, expect a repeat of the nightmarish shooting today, when Lawrence plays host to Blue Valley West (119) in the first round of substate, at 7 p.m. Please see LIONS, page 4B Mosiman

Injured fans explore legal options ORLANDO, FLA. (AP) — The attorney for three NASCAR fans injured last weekend during a race the day before the Daytona 500 says they are exploring a possible lawsuit, but some experts say they could face tough obstacles in winning damages. Matt Morgan, the Orlandobased lawyer for the fans, said at a news conference Tuesday than any suit would focus on the safety fence used along the track at Daytona International Speedway. He said he hopes to reach a settlement with NASCAR to avoid a lawsuit. More than 30 people were injured last Saturday after a horrific wreck in a secondtier NASCAR series race sent

chunks of debris, including a heavy tire, into the stands. Morgan declined to provide the identities of his clients, but said two of them were seated directly in front of the crash and sustained injuries ranging from a fractured fibula to abdominal swelling. All have been released from the hospital. Some experts say there could be grounds for a lawsuit, and that courts have looked past liability waivers written on the backs of sporting event tickets. Others maintain the ticket is a legal contract that could be hard to overcome in court. “Ultimately, I believe it would be gross negligence,� Morgan said. “We all know that when

you go to a race you assume a certain amount of risk. But what people don’t assume is that a race car will come flying into the stands... That’s why they make the fences.� Asked to comment on the fans’ retention of a law firm, NASCAR spokesman David Higdon wrote in a statement, “We are unaware of any lawsuits filed.� Daytona International Speedway is owned by International Speedway Corp., a NASCAR sister company. Spokesman Andrew Booth said, “As per company policy, we do not comment on pending litigation.� Donnalynn Darling, a New

York-based attorney who has been practicing personal injury law for 30 years, said there is a theory that a spectator who buys tickets to a sporting event assumes the risk of objects coming out of the field of play, such as a foul ball at a baseball game. But she said there is also a foreseeable risk question that promoters of events also accept. “Did the sporting event promoter take action to prevent that specific risk?� Darling asked. “In terms of this fence... it was put up to prevent people from being hurt. You have people who were not only injured by falling debris, but by the failure of the fence.�

Butler homers in KC win GOODYEAR, ARIZ. (AP) — Terry Francona named his openingday starter and then watched the Kansas City Royals thump a couple of Cleveland’s relievers. Billy Butler homered and drove in three runs Tuesday for the unbeaten Royals in a 4-1 win, handing Cleveland its first loss in six spring games. Before the game, Francona told Justin Masterson in the dugout that he would be the Indians’ starting pitcher in Toronto on April 2. Francona didn’t think it was an odd venue to make such an announcement. “I was excited to tell him and didn’t feel like holding it in,� he said. “I just wanted to let Masty get his legs under him. He’s the leader of our staff. We want him to be the leader. I think it’s an honor.� It will be Masterson’s second season-opening start. A year ago, the 28-year-old struck out 10 over eight innings against the Blue Jays in Cleveland, allowing two hits and one run in a game that the Indians went on to lose in 16 innings, 7-4. Royals manager Ned Yost has yet to reveal rotation plans. In fact, Wade Davis became the first rotation pitcher used this spring by Kansas City. Acquired with fellow right-hander James Shields from Tampa Bay this winter, Davis started and gave up one single over two innings. “He was real solid, kept the ball down and changed speeds well,� Yost said. Butler singled in a first-inning run off loser Matt Albers and a two-run homer off Giovanni Soto in the fifth. “Billy just hits, no matter what time of year,� Yost said. “Another great day for him.� Eric Hosmer had an RBI triple in the Royals’ third off Bryan Shaw and Matt Carson hit his second home run for Cleveland, in the eighth off Brian Sanches.

Krzyzewski says he won’t return as U.S. coach NEW YORK — Mike Krzyzewski said again Tuesday he doesn’t plan to return as U.S. men’s basketball coach after leading the Americans to two Olympic gold medals. Saying “my stance hasn’t changed,� Krzyzewski told ESPN Radio he expects USA Basketball to name a new coach this summer. The Hall of Fame Duke coach said during and after last summer’s Olympics that he wasn’t planning to return to the position he’s held with the national team since 2005. However, he still hasn’t confirmed that decision with USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo, who has said they will talk after the college season. Krzyzewski “I’ve loved, loved, loved, and it’s been an honor being with the USA Basketball team,� Krzyzewski said in the interview. “And to coach the team and work with Jerry these seven years has been marvelous. “And we’re in a good spot,� Krzyzewski added. “We need to keep building.� Krzyzewski led the Americans to Olympic gold in 2008 and 2012, and a world basketball championship in 2010. The Americans also won bronze in the 2006 worlds, their first tournament under his guidance, and haven’t lost a game since. The Americans automatically qualified for the 2014 World Cup of Basketball in Spain by winning gold in London. Colangelo originally said he planned to name a new coach around the new year, but put off those plans so he could talk to Krzyzewski once the Blue Devils’ season was finished. The delay created speculation Krzyzewski was open to a return, but he told ESPN Radio that USA Basketball wouldn’t make an announcement during the season, anyway. If Krzyzewski is indeed finished, Colangelo will first have to determine if he wants to stay with a college coach or go back to someone from the NBA. Before Krzyzewski, the Americans had been led by someone from the pros since 1992, when NBA players were first allowed to play in the Olympics.

Maine team bus crashes GEORGETOWN, MASS. — A bus carrying University of Maine basketball players crashed on a highway north of Boston on Tuesday night, injuring the driver and several students, state police said. The driver was seriously injured and was being taken by helicopter to a hospital, police said. Twenty-two students were being evaluated or treated for minor injuries, they said. The bus was going southbound on Interstate 95 at around 8:30 p.m. when it crossed onto the northbound side and went into a wooded area near Georgetown, a town of about 8,000 residents 30 miles from Boston. A state police car that stopped at the scene was struck by another car. The trooper who had been driving it was hospitalized with what appeared to be minor injuries, police said.

Rodman visits North Korea PYONGYANG, NORTH KOREA — Former NBA star Dennis Rodman brought his basketball skills Tuesday and flamboyant style — tattoos, nose studs and all — to a country with possibly the world’s strictest dress code: North Korea. Landing in Pyongyang with VICE television, the American athlete and showman known as “The Worm� became an unlikely ambassador for sports diplomacy at a time of heightened tensions between the U.S. and North Korea. Rodman is joining three members of the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team and a VICE correspondent for a news show on North Korea that will air on HBO later this year, VICE told The Associated Press in an exclusive interview Tuesday before they landed.

Woods, McIlroy play two rounds PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLA. — Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy faced off Sunday in match play, just like so many golf fans wanted to see. Only hardly anyone saw them. And it didn’t even count. After both were eliminated in the first round of the Match Play Championship, No. 1 and No. 2 in the world played two rounds Sunday morning at The Medalist. McIlroy said Woods won the first 18 holes, and he won the second match. The Medalist is the home club of Woods. McIlroy said former NFL receiver Ahmad Rashad joined them. McIlroy and Woods are tied at 2 in their headto-head matches. Woods beat him in the World Golf Finals exhibition last year Turkey, while McIlroy beat him a few months later in an 18-hole exhibition in China.

Annett out indefinitely CHARLOTTE, N.C. — NASCAR driver Michael Annett has a fracture and dislocation of his sternum that will require surgery. Aric Almirola will replace him in the Nationwide Series this weekend at Phoenix. Annett was injured in a wreck during the Nationwide Series race Saturday at Daytona. He spent one night in the hospital, but was seen Tuesday by two different doctors in North Carolina who diagnosed the injury. Annett will not be able to compete for an indefinite amount of time. Almirola will drive the No. 43 Pilot Flying J Ford, and Richard Petty Motorsports will evaluate its options moving forward.

All-Star race bonus offered CONCORD, N.C. — NASCAR’s All-Star race format has been changed again, but this time to discourage drivers from riding around at the back of the field. Charlotte Motor Speedway owner Bruton Smith has posted a $1 million bonus as incentive to a driver who wins all five race segments. The overall winner of the Sprint All-Star race gets a $1 million payout.

Heat 141, Kings 129, 2OT MIAMI — LeBron James had 40 points and 16 assists, Dwyane Wade scored 39, and Miami pushed its winning streak to 12 games by outlasting Sacramento in double overtime on Tuesday night. Ray Allen added 21, Chris Bosh finished with 15 and Chris Andersen had 10 for the Heat, who remained six games clear of second-place Indiana in the Eastern Conference standings. Miami’s 12-game winning streak is the longest in the NBA and matches the second-longest in franchise history. Marcus Thornton scored 36 points for Sacramento, the most by any reserve in the NBA this season. DeMarcus Cousins finished with 24 points and 15 rebounds, Tyreke Evans added 26 points, John Salmons 15 and Isaiah Thomas 14 for the Kings. James became the first NBA player to finish with at least 40 points and 16 assists since Kevin Johnson — now the mayor of Sacramento — had 42 and 17 for Phoenix against Denver on April 3, 1994. Kings coach Keith Smart said before the game that sometimes “great teams get a little bored with the regular season and they need something to get them going.” The Heat didn’t seem to be bored by the second overtime. After a late non-call that James wanted, he simply seemed mad. James scored inside to open the second extra session, yelling “and one” at referees as his way of insisting he was fouled as well. But after one sensational sequence, the game was pretty much sealed. Thornton had a chance to give the Kings the lead after a Heat turnover, but his shot at the rim was blocked by Wade, who came down and set up James for a three-pointer — a five-point swing, in essence, and the Heat had a 131-127 lead. James scored again, then added two free throws and found Bosh for a dunk and 10-point lead with 1:29 remaining. Sacramento lost its sixth straight and fell to 1-16 against Miami since March 2004. The Heat missed key free throws late in both regulation and the first overtime — Wade missing a pair with 21 seconds left in the fourth, and James missed one of two with 29.3 seconds left in the opening extra session. In the first OT, the Kings had a chance for the late lead and potentially the win, but Thomas had a layup blocked by Bosh, and Allen grabbed the rebound for the Heat with 5.7 seconds left. Miami put the ball in Wade’s hands, and he found James near the basket. James’ shot missed, and he complained he was fouled by Salmons on the attempt. Referees disagreed with that, but after a lengthy review to determine possession, they awarded Miami the ball with 0.4 seconds remaining.

SACRAMENTO’S DEMARCUS COUSINS, LEFT, AND Jason Thompson pressure Miami’s Dwyane Wade. The Heat defeated the Kings, 141-129 in double overtime, Tuesday night in Miami. Magic 98, 76ers 84 PHILADELPHIA — Arron Afflalo and Tobias Harris scored 16 points apiece, and Orlando snapped a 10game road losing streak. Andrew Nicholson contributed 13 and Nikola Vucevic had 12 points and 19 rebounds for the Magic (16-41), who hadn’t won on the road since Jan. 12 against the Los Angeles Clippers. E’Twaun Moore had 12 points and a career-high 10 assists, while Maurice Harkless had 10 points for the Magic. The Magic won for just the seventh time all season on the road while also snapping a five-game skid overall. The Sixers lost their sixth straight game, their longest streak in nearly three years. Damien Wilkins led the struggling Sixers with a season-high 14 points, while Jeremy Pargo added 14. Dorell Wright also had 11 and Evan Turner 10 for Philadelphia, which fell a season-worst 11 games under .500 at 22-33. This latest defeat came against the Magic, who started two rookies and featured five rookies and three second-year players on their roster. Orlando also entered this game having lost 28 of its last 31.

Cavaliers 101, Bulls 98 CHICAGO — Dion Waiters scored 25 points to help make up for the absence of Kyrie Irving, and Cleveland snapped an 11game losing streak against Chicago. While Irving rested a sore right knee in street clothes on the sideline, Waiters converted a fadeaway jumper and a layup before Tyler Zeller drove along the baseline for a layup that helped Cleveland open an 87-78 lead with 7:33 left in the game. The Bulls were down two when they got the ball back with 37 seconds left, but Luol Deng missed a long jumper.

Nets 101, Hornets 97 NEW ORLEANS — Deron Williams scored 33 points, Brook Lopez added 20 while playing against his twin brother, Robin, and Brooklyn snapped a twogame slide with a victory over New Orleans. Williams did not score for much of the second half, but drained a timely three-pointer with 1:24 left, then added a fadeaway jumper, followed by six free throws in the final 18.7 seconds to seal it.

Keith Bogans added 12 points for Brooklyn, hitting all four of his shots, including three threepointers in the fourth quarter, when New Orleans nearly erased a deficit that had been as large as 22 points in the second quarter.

KU women hope to make magic at Hilton, too By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Count KU women’s basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson among those who hope what KU senior Elijah Johnson did to Iowa State during Monday night’s 108-96 overtime victory will have a lingering effect on Hilton Coliseum. At 7 tonight, just two days after Johnson torched Iowa State for 39 points to keep the KU men atop the Big 12 standings, Henrickson’s club will step into the same venue looking for a much-needed victory of its own. Although comparisons between the men’s and women’s game are not made often, Henrickson said this week’s back-toback battles with the Cyclones could be unique. “I think you look at that parallel of, ‘OK, how did they do it?’ They made plays. And a senior made plays,” Henrickson said. “And it’s more magnified because it’s guys that are friends of ours and the relationship we have with the program.”

KANSAS FORWARD BUNNY WILLIAMS PICKS UP teammate Angel Goodrich while Lamaria Cole lets out a scream as Kansas players celebrate their overtime victory against Iowa State on Jan. 30 at Allen Fieldhouse. The Jayhawks hope to have similar success against the Cyclones in today’s match-up at Hilton Coliseum. Although Henrickson spent most of Monday night watching film of the 23rdranked Iowa State team her Jayhawks knocked off, 7875, in overtime on Jan. 30 at Allen Fieldhouse, she tuned in to the men’s game when it mattered most.

“I was watching film and following it on my phone and once I saw about three minutes left I turned it on and said, ‘I don’t want to miss this,’” Henrickson said. What she witnessed was an explosion from

Ex-KU football stars build buzz at NFL combine By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Three days after former Kansas University offensive lineman Tanner Hawkinson hit the turf at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis for the timing portion of this year’s NFL combine, former KU safety Bradley McDougald capped things off with a solid showing on Tuesday. McDougald, a former wide receiver who switched to safety during the final two seasons of his KU career, finished near the top in several drills and, according to one veteran NFL scout interviewed by the JournalWorld, helped his draft stock in the process. “What he did, he kept himself in the mix,” the scout said of McDougald. “He helped himself. He did it all. He competed and those numbers are good, solid.” McDougald’s 40-yard dash time of 4.74 seconds landed him in the middle of the pack among the safeties at this year’s combine, but the scout said for a guy with McDougald’s size — 6-foot, 215 pounds — that number was not too surprising. “It’s adequate,” the scout said. “You can play with that speed.” What’s more, McDougald’s 19 reps of 225 pounds in the bench press, which put him fifth among safeties at the combine, demonstrated what KU fans already knew — that McDougald’s game is more about power than speed. As for the rest of his results, his 34.5-inch vertical jump landed him in the middle of the pack, his 122-inch broad jump placed eighth and his times in the three-cone (7.7 seconds) and 20-yard shuffle (4.44) agility tests were average, according to the scout. “He’s a safety with some size,” the scout said. “So those are good numbers, and he’s put himself in a position where now we have to see how he plays.” As for the 6-5, 298-pound Hawkinson, who participated in the timing portion of the combine with the rest of the offensive linemen on Saturday, the scout was most impressed by his mobility. Hawkinson’s 5.07-second 40 time was fifthfastest among O-linemen — “I would say that’s very good,” the scout said — and his three-cone time (7.52) and 20-yard shuffle

Johnson, who outscored Iowa State 8-3 in the final 29 seconds of regulation and 12-6 in overtime. “I was happy for him,” Henrickson said. “As much as he’s been such a great player here during his career, it was exciting

to see him play with that kind of confidence.” That’s another area she’s hoping will rub off on her senior-laden squad, especially given that the two games are being played so closely together and the impressive support Iowa State’s men’s crowd routinely gives its women’s program, as well. After falling behind by 18 points with just under nine minutes to play in the first meeting, Henrickson’s Jayhawks turned up the tempo and roared back to force overtime. During that stretch, the Jayhawks shot in 10 seconds or less on 85 percent of their possessions. Henrickson is hoping to see a similar style prevail tonight. “We’re gonna have to hit some jump shots and turn up the defensive pressure to get out in transition,” she said. “We need to push after a miss and a make. That’s what we had success with toward the end of the second half and overtime down here.” The Jayhawks (16-10 overall, 7-8 Big 12) have lost four of their last six games and two straight.

BRIEFLY Seabury girls’ game postponed Tuesday night’s Class 2A sub-state girls basketball game at Bishop Seabury Academy was postponed due to inclement weather. The No. 4 seed Seahawks (8-9) will now play host to No. 5 seed AlmaWabaunsee (8-11) at 6 p.m. today. Seabury athletic director Eric Nelson said he and school officials were prepared to go ahead with a Tuesday game, but Wabaunsee couldn’t get school board approval for traveling to Lawrence in wintry conditions.

KU tennis, which climbed to No. 65 in Tuesday’s ITA Women’s Division I Team Rankings, also postponed a match. Today’s previously scheduled match against UMKC will now be played at 3 p.m. Thursday.

I think it was a very good showing for KU football.”

Next up for both Jayhawks, should they choose to participate, is KU’s annual pro timing day on March 15, when a handful of NFL scouts come to Lawrence to test those players not invited to the combine in preparation for the NFL Draft, April 26-28.

“We’ve really let that go,” Lewis said. “That was a fluke and the kids know that.” The Lions (12-8, ranked No. 7 in Class 6A) have held high postseason expectations all year and their recent 1-3 stretch hasn’t changed that. “We’re not the type of group that will sit around and pout about it,” Lewis said. “Our guys re-focus and use that as motivation.” In preparing for the Jaguars, of the Eastern Kansas League, Lawrence’s coaches and players have zeroed in on 6-foot-7 forward Joey Lillis and his team’s motion offense. Lewis said BVW works each offensive possession to the fullest and will pass the ball “25 or 30 times” to find the best shot. Part of that strategy involves wearing out defenders. “They’ll come down and just screen and re-screen and just beat you up with screens,” Lewis said. Lillis most often benefits from the Jaguars’ patience and routinely scores in double figures. Mosiman said the Lions, though undersized, are up for the challenge of defending Lillis and the BVW interior game.

“

The postseason is just a different season. You’re starting over completely. We’re gonna come out with a fire that we need to win these two games to get to state and just show everybody what we can actually do.” — Lawrence High senior guard Jake Mosiman “Their strength is their big guys and our strength is our guards,” Mosiman said, “so we’re gonna play that to our advantage.” Defensively, Lewis said all five Lions on the floor will have to communicate, be in position and take sound gambles through pressure when they can. Mosiman said the Lions are excited to execute the game plan and open substate. “The postseason is just a different season. You’re starting over completely,” he said. “We’re gonna come out with a fire that we need to win these two games to get to state and just show everybody what we can actually do.” The LHS-BVW winner moves on to a sub-state final on Friday against either Olathe South (15-5) or Olathe North (5-15).

They have also been plagued by slow starts that left them just short at the end. “It’s in there, we have it in us,” Henrickson said. “But when are we gonna learn the lesson to start with it and go ahead and play like that for 40 minutes? It’s more nightmarish than cool, I’ll tell you that.” As for how to fix it, Henrickson said the responsibility fell on everyone involved. “We played ourselves into this hole,” she said. “And now we gotta play ourselves out of it. Everyone has to do more and that starts with me.”

starters Logan Bannister, Cole Moreano, Reshawn Caro and Keith Loneker, as well as the rest of the 10-player rotation, should harness the positives of a simplistic approach. “We get to go out and play as hard as we can and do our jobs,” Lane said. A key aspect of Free State’s strategy will involve contesting all shots on the perimeter, especially those being fired by senior sharpshooter Kyle Huppe. The Firebirds played physical defense through most of their City Showdown win over Lawrence on Friday. Lane said junior Blake Winslow helped set that tone and Free State would like to duplicate the effort against GEHS: “Probably play the exact same game we did Friday, because (the Lions) had a bunch of shooters.” Finishing the regular season with a victory against LHS, Law said, should help give Free State — which had lost four of its previous five — a boost, because there is an added excitement in preparing for the Blazers, who have won five straight. “The focus and attention to detail will certainly be better considering we won the game Friday,” Law said, “as opposed to if we coughed up that 15-point lead. That would’ve been devastating.” Lane agreed having that “winning feeling” lifted the Firebirds’ morale. To keep it alive, Law said FSHS must rebound the ball well against a very athletic, aggressive opponent. The Blazers, he added, could be the best transition team Free State has faced this season. With that in mind, the coach said his team can’t afford empty, oneshot-and-done possessions on offense. “If we don’t get in there and get some pressure on them on the offensive glass and get some stickbacks,” Law said, “and if we fall prey to we shoot it, one guy’s gonna rebound it and the other three are just gonna stand around and watch, they’re gonna get out in transition.” Though the sub-state opener is on the road, Law said it shouldn’t be a “huge deal.” The Firebirds have played 13 games away from FSHS this season, going 5-8 at road and neutral sites. The winner of tonight’s game at GEHS moves on to face Olathe East (12-8) or Olathe Northwest (911) in a sub-state final on Friday.

GOLDEN GOPHER FANS — AND ONE CHICKEN — RUSH THE COURT after Minnesota defeated No. 1 Indiana, 77-73, on Tuesday in Minneapolis.

Minnesota tops No. 1 Indiana The Associated Press

Minnesota 77, No. 1 Indiana 73 MINNEAPOLIS — Indiana was starting to settle in again at No. 1 after weeks of shuffling at the top of the national rankings in this wildly unpredictable season of college basketball. Trevor Mbakwe and Minnesota stepped forward, flexed their muscles and did their best to push the Hoosiers out. Mbakwe had 21 points and 12 rebounds to help the Gophers take down top-ranked Indiana on Tuesday night, the seventh time the No. 1 team in The Associated Press’ poll has lost a game this season. “We’re trying to do big things so we have to learn from this mistake, but we have to dust it off real fast,” Hoosiers star Victor Oladipo said. Andre Hollins added 16 points for the Gophers (19-9, 7-8 Big Ten), who outrebounded Cody Zeller and the Hoosiers by a whopping 44-30 and solidified their slipping NCAA tournament bid with an emphatic performance against the Big Ten leader. The fans swarmed the court as the last second ticked off, the first time that’s happened here in years. “We weren’t physical enough on the glass. That’s the bottom line,” Indiana coach Tom Crean said. Zeller was held to nine points with four turnovers for the Hoosiers (24-4, 123), who have held the No. 1 ranking for 10 of 17 polls

this season including the last four. Oladipo scored 16 points, but 14 of the 17 points by Jordan Hulls came before halftime. “Cody’s certainly capable of a lot,” Crean said, “and I think he’ll bounce back just fine.” Mbakwe, a sixth-year senior, posted his conference-leading seventh double-double. At 24 years old, he was a man among boys in many ways in this game, dominating both ends of the court when the Gophers needed him most. Minnesota had 23 offensive rebounds. “We did need to play with a sense of urgency, play with a little edge,” Gophers coach Tubby Smith said. “I think Trevor set that tone for us.” Elliott Eliason, who played every bit as well as Zeller, the slender sophomore in the post on the other side, scored seven straight points for Minnesota to tie the game at 46 shortly after Oladipo’s reverse layup had given the Hoosiers a 44-36 edge, their biggest of the game. Hollins, who missed eight of his first nine shots, scraped off a high screen by Eliason to pull up for a three-pointer and give the Gophers a 51-48 lead. Mbakwe got a rebound to keep a key possession alive then grabbed another board to set up his off-balance bank shot to make it 56-53 in favor of Minnesota. Mbakwe was called for a loudly questioned blocking foul, his fourth, with 4:39 remaining on Zeller’s fast-break layup and free throw that put the Hoosiers up 59-58. But Austin

Hollins answered with a pump-fake layup that drew a foul for a threepoint play and a two-point advantage for the Gophers. The Hoosiers didn’t lead again, and Joe Coleman’s fast-break dunk with 2:35 left gave Minnesota a 6861 cushion, enough of one to withstand a couple of three-pointers by Christian Watford and one by Hulls in the closing minutes.

No foul was called on the play, and Niang was later whistled for a loose-ball foul against Johnson, who hit two free throws with 4.9 seconds remaining to send the game to overtime. Also, with 23 seconds left, it appeared Jeff Withey committed his fifth foul, but the foul was assessed to Kevin Young. “I would say, ‘Hey we were fortunate we got a no-call there,’” Self said. “It could have easily been a charge. (But) how many times at the end of games do you have no-calls in those situations? “We were fortunate. I will not say we weren’t. It could have easily been called and if it was I couldn’t have complained. On the flip side, there are

say that in a season you see 30-29 games, 50-45,” Hoiberg said. “If nothing else, we gave our fans their money’s worth. We try to play a very exciting style of basketball. We try to get it out and we have five playmakers on the floor at one time. We’ve created a buzz because of our style of play and we’re going to continue to play that way. We just have to find a way to get some stops. And when we do that, I think we have a long season ahead of us.” By long season, Hoiberg meant one that includes NCAA Tournament success.

Soup so thick and satisfying, Fork you don’t even need bread

I

’m not even going to pretend any of us are about to make something new for dinner tonight. We’ve all been cooped up far too long, we’ve eaten the same things for days and we’re all probably going for our well-known comfort foods. But once the snow melts enough so that driving isn’t treacherous (let’s hope that’s soon), please run out and get the ingredients for this recipe. It’s creamy, healthy, comforting. Fact is, it’s so creamy that you don’t even need bread to dip into it. Seriously, and we’re huge “bread with soup� people. You can have it, but you won’t miss it if you neglect to grab a baguette. Some tips: Start soaking the cashews before you leave for work, and if you have a stick (immersion) blender, use that for the cashew cream instead of the blender. Heed the directions at the bottom about adding water when reheating. We reheated it on the stove top instead of the microwave and that seemed to work well.

Eat Your Vegetables

Sarah Henning Chickpea and Rice Soup with a Little Kale 3/4 cup cashews, soaked in water for two hours or overnight 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 medium, yellow onion, thinly sliced 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon dried rosemary 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme 1 teaspoon salt Fresh black pepper 3/4 cup rice, rinsed 3 ribs celery, thinly sliced 1 cup carrots, diced chunky 5 cups vegetable broth 1 24 oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed (about 3 cups) 4 cups chopped kale Thinly sliced green onion, for garnish Drain the cashews and place them in a blender with

one cup of water. Blend until completely smooth, scraping the sides of the food processor with a spatula occasionally to make sure you get everything. This could take one to five minutes depending on the strength of your blender. Preheat a stock pot over medium heat. Saute onion in olive oil with a pinch of salt for about five minutes, until translucent. Add garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper and saute a minute more. Add rice, celery and carrots and then pour in the broth. Cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling, bring down to a simmer, add the chickpeas, and let cook for about 15 more minutes, until rice is cooked and carrots are tender. Add the cashew cream and kale, and simmer until kale is wilted, three to five more minutes. You may need to add water to thin the soup if it seems too thick. Taste for salt and seasonings and let sit for 10 minutes or so to allow the flavors to marry. Serve topped with green onions. It thickens as it cools, so if you have leftovers, just thin with a little water when you reheat. — Recipe from theppk.com. — Check out Sarah Henning’s Eat Your Vegetables blog at Lawrence.com.

Cereal flavors increasingly moving out of the box ANGIEL TRAN MAKES FRUITY CEREAL MILK using Fruity Pebbles cereal Feb. 21 at the Momofuku Milk Bar kitchen in New York. Cereal is going out of the box. Milk, ice cream, muffin mix and more are being infused with the flavor of the classic childhood treat.

By Michelle Locke Associated Press

Breakfast cereal flavors are jumping out of the box. Milk, ice cream, baking mixes and more are getting infused with the flavor of the classic childhood treat. There’s even a line of lip balms and a cereal-flavored vodka. Snap, crackle, what? The trend ties into a broader hankering for retro foods and flavors, heavy on the comfort factor, says Cathy Nash Holley, publisher and editor-in-chief of the trade magazine Flavor & The Menu. Chefs have been using cereal for a while as crusts and coatings on savory items. What’s new is that cereals are being used in a more whimsical sense, even calling out the brand name for an added sense of playfulness. So you have desserts like the Shaved Ice Sundae with a topping of Cap’n Crunch at Talde in New York City or the Rice Krispies that top a flourless chocolate cake at Morimoto NY. Looking beyond restaurant menus, there are lip balms that come in the flavors of Trix (Silly rabbit, lip balm is for kids!?!), Cocoa Puffs and Count Chocula, among other flavors. Betty Crocker has cereal-flavored muffin mixes including Cinnamon Toast Crunch. And Three Olives released a cereal-flavored vodka called Loopy with a strikingly Froot Loopsstyle motif on the bottle. A fruity delight in every... er... shot? But it’s possible that may have been a little too spirited an attempt at the trend. After first pitching a story on the product to the AP, company representatives suddenly went radio silent, and ultimately declined to comment on their own story. A query to Kellogg’s, makers of Froot Loops, also netted a “no comment.� On the restaurant scene,

Christina Tosi, founding chef of Momofuku Milk Bar, a bakery in New York, is a pioneer in cereal creations, an obsession that began in 2007 when she was developing a panna cotta for the opening menu of chef David Chang’s Momofuku Ko restaurant. There were two problems. One, the dessert menu was a blank, and two, the new freezer that was supposed to hold ice cream for that nonexistent dessert menu was on the fritz. Panna cotta seemed like a good idea, but it needed to be something a bit more interesting than the regular version of that dessert. So Tosi, who had been experimenting with versions of steeped milk for some time, ran to the store and bought every powdered and dried thing they had and made several milk-infused flavors, including cereal milk. It was a hit and at Chang’s suggestion she took things a little further, making cereal milk ice cream as well as a line of cereal milk. Tosi’s cereal milk is a little more sophisticated than the stuff you slurp up after indulging in a bowl of, let’s say, Cocoa Pebbles, having more in com-

mon with steeped milk, a staple of traditional cuisine. But it taps into the same themes of comfort and nostalgia as that bowl of flakes enjoyed as a latenight snack. Cereal milk is “relatable and fun,� Tosi said in an email interview. “Making a connection with something you eat is what we believe really strikes a chord, sparks a memory and keeps you obsessed.� Today, Momofuku Milk Bar sells cereal milk ice creams, including a soft serve cereal milk ice cream. Also available is a cereal milk mix that contains toasted cornflakes, light brown sugar and salt for those who want to whip up a batch at home. “There’s no end to what can be done with cereal milk. We love finding new ways to tap into the memory sensor of people’s minds and stomachs, and cereal is so broad in flavor, texture and possibility,� Tosi says. “Currently, cereal milk soft serve is our favorite, combining the love of breakfast cereal with the guilty pleasure of ice cream, though late at night, a cereal milk White Russian also does the trick.�

onstrations for county libraries in Topeka and Salina, but this will be his first such demonstration in Lawrence, according to the Oread.

medium heat until everything is well-combined and warm. That’s it! So simple, but it looks like you have slaved for hours. The colors are lovely and the flavors rich and a little bit sophisticated. No one has to know you just pulled the stuff out of the fridge on a whim and made it in your sweatpants. It’s good stuff for snowy weather and satisfies the more “Meat and Potatoes� among us while also meeting my girlie criteria for green things in my food. It makes a lot, so be ready to have company or eat leftovers. I opted for leftovers, because I like to wear sweatpants, and company might want to see my bathroom at some point.

THIS ROASTED ROSEMARY LEG OF GOAT RECIPE only takes 10 minutes to prepare and is ideal for a weekend when you want a bold, richly flavored dinner that sports tons of slow-roasted deliciousness without needing to spend the day slaving in the kitchen.

Low, slow rosemary goat an easy 10-minute prep By J.M. Hirsch Associated Press

When is a recipe that takes many hours a fast and easy recipe? When it takes just 10 minutes of your time to prepare. Admittedly, this recipe for roasted goat isn’t weeknight-friendly. But it is ideal for a weekend when you want a bold, richly flavored dinner that sports tons of slow-roasted deliciousness without needing to spend the day slaving in the kitchen. But first, we must address the issue of goat. Plenty of people think it’s a little sketchy. But when properly prepared it is crazy delicious, akin

to the best dark meat turkey you’ll ever taste. You probably won’t find it at most mainstream grocers; farmers’ markets or ethnic markets are where to go to hunt down this dinner. For this recipe, ask for the shoulder roast, sometimes labeled leg roast. In fact, getting the meat probably is the hardest part of the whole recipe. Once you’ve got it, all you do is trim off any fat, rub it with an herb and spice blend, then pop it in a Dutch oven with some carrots and white wine, then ignore it for several hours (or until the meat is so tender you can cut it with a spoon). If you want to add

some roasted potatoes to the mix, add 1 pound of lightly oiled new potatoes to the pot (around the goat) during the last hour of cooking.

check the meat about every 30 minutes after it has roasted for 3 hours. Start to finish: 4 hours (10 minutes active) Servings: 4 servings 3 large carrots, cut into 2-inch lengths Slow Roasted 1 medium yellow onion, Rosemary Leg roughly chopped 2 large sprigs fresh Of Goat rosemary, leaves only This recipe was written 4 cloves garlic, for a 2 1/4-pound bone-in chopped leg of goat, which will make 1 teaspoon dried thyme about 4 servings. If you 1 teaspoon fennel seeds can’t find that size, or need 1 teaspoon cumin seeds a larger one in order to 1 teaspoon kosher salt feed more people, estimate 1 teaspoon black pepabout 2 hours of roasting percorns per pound. We also found 1/2 teaspoon smoked that using a ceramic Dutch paprika oven slowed the cooking 1/2 teaspoon ground slightly; a cast-iron pot dried sage accelerated it. It’s best to 1/2 teaspoon ground

coriander 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 1/4-pound bone-in goat leg 2 1/2 cups white wine Heat the oven to 425 F. Arrange the carrots and onion in a Dutch oven. In a mini processor or spice grinder, combine the rosemary, garlic, thyme, fennel, cumin, salt, peppercorns, paprika, sage, coriander and cloves. Grind until a coarse paste forms, then transfer to a small bowl. Add the olive oil and mix to form a loose paste. Set aside. Use a knife to trim away any fat on the exterior of the meat. Rub the oil-and-spice blend

thoroughly over the meat, massaging it into any splits or separations. Set the meat on top of the carrots and onions in the pot. Pour the wine into the pot (not over the goat, which would wash away the seasoning rub). Set in the oven and cook for 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 300 F, then cook for another 3 1/2 hours, or until the meat falls away easily from the bone.

Fast, healthy pear crisp good in any season Pork By Sara Moulton

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8B

Associated Press

Sometimes, even on a weeknight, you really crave a little dessert. But making dessert takes time, and you already are spending time cooking up the main event, namely dinner. That’s where this recipe comes to the rescue. It’s a quick, easy and delicious pear crisp that calls for just five ingredients — pears, granola, lemon juice, apricot jam and a pinch of salt. Pears are just now at the tail-end of their season. Yes, I know we can find pears all year these days. But believe me, those specimens are going to be nowhere near as electrifying as a fully-ripened in-season local pear. The problem is the relative rareness of such pears. Ralph Waldo Emerson was onto something when he wrote, “There are only 10 minutes in the life of a pear when it is perfect to eat.” In other words, most of the time, no matter where it comes from, our pears aren’t at the peak of perfection. And for those times, when pears are unripe and you don’t have time to let them ripen, this recipe comes in mighty handy. Baking an unripe pear not only makes it tender, it also crystallizes and magnifies the fruit’s flavor. Happily, any kind of pear — and there are many varieties — will work in this recipe, as will a mix of varieties. Pears also have a lot to offer in terms of health. They’re a good source

CHERRY-TOPPED COFFEE-ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN is shown served on a platter. Roasting meat with coffee is an effortless way to add gobs of flavor to whatever you are making.

ROAST

Add lots of flavor to roasted pork using this secret ingredient By J.M. Hirsch Associated Press

Coffee has become my new favorite ingredient when roasting meat. It’s an effortless way to add gobs of flavor to whatever I am making. All I do is add whole coffee beans to whatever spice blend I am using as a wet or dry rub, then grind it to a powder and apply to the meat. The coffee provides deep, rich flavors with just a hint of

Creamy sausage, bow tie pasta for the non-dieting crowd THE FLYING FORK I am thrilled to report that six weeks postpartum, I am only 5 pounds over where I was when I started this babygrowing journey. So that is the good news. The bad news is I was only halfway to my goal weight when our little Lily surprise derailed my Weight Watcher efforts. So now I still have to finish that weight loss task, plus the five extras. I’m almost ready to dive head first back into Weight Watchers, but

by Megan Stuke I’m waiting until after St. Patrick’s Day because I’m participating in many of the fundraising efforts of the Lawrence St. Patrick’s Day Committee, and much of that includes

beer and bar food. It just seems counter-productive to even begin when I know failure lurks around every corner. I’m taking full advantage of these last couple of weeks of freedom with food and using a lot of ingredients that will go the way of the dodo when I start counting points again. For example: heavy cream. And sausage. And pasta. Oh, let’s just throw all three in a dish together, what say you? I created this little mas-

terpiece one afternoon while I stood around in my pearls and high heels and waited for my husband to come home from work. I’m taking this stay-at-home time very seriously, you see. Also, my house is spotless, you could eat off my bathroom floor, and my children never have a speck of spit up on their clothes or dirt on their faces. At least, that is how it seemed in my head. Please see FORK, page 6B

acid. It’s a combination that works wonders for roasted meat. I’ve tried the spicecoffee combination called for below on both beef and pork tenderloins; both were fantastic. You also could use it on chicken breasts or thighs for a “blackened� chicken. The seasonings can be applied to the meat right before roasting. But if you have a little extra time, the flavor is even better if you rub the spices on the meat, then

refrigerate it for several hours before roasting. And if you’d rather use these flavors in a wet rub, don’t hesitate to add a little olive or canola oil to the blend. If you’re looking for a simple and speedy dinner, make the roasted pork tenderloin in this recipe and serve it as is with a side salad or some roasted vegetables. Or for something partyworthy, slice it, slap it on rounds of baguette, Please see PORK, page 7B

Dear Annie: My daughter is a drug addict who is in and out of jail. Over the past 14 years, we have taken custody of her four children. Two of the kids are great. However, the other two are the problem. The oldest girl just turned 18 and moved out. This kid made our lives miserable. She saw counselors multiple times and began cutting herself, and we finally had to have her committed to a hospital. We did whatever we thought would work, but nothing did. She quit school and now lives with any friend who will take her in. Now, one of the other girls is 13 and doing the same thing. It’s as if they lose their minds once they hit middle school. Her grades are down, she is getting into trouble at school, she cuts classes and has briefly

Cerner’s move will impact all facets of business in Legends/West Village By Elvyn JONES

C

erner Corporation has already changed the skyline of western Wyandotte County with the first of the twin nine-story towers rushing toward completion on its State Avenue campus. But area business leaders say the project has the potential to make greater changes to the county’s landscape and economy. Cindy Cash, president and CEO of the Kansas City, Kan., Area Chamber of Commerce, said Wyandotte County, and the Legends/West Village area in particular, have experienced many large and exciting projects since work started in 1999 on the Kansas Speedway. But, she said, the Cerner towers being built on a 58-acre campus on the southwest corner of State Avenue and West Village Parkway could take the county and the immediate area in a different direction. Cerner Corporation, a North Kansas City, Mo., based health care software developer, broke ground on the first of the towers in March 2012 and it’s expected to be completed in mid-year. The company announced in September that it would start work early on the second tower and that building now

ejones@theworldco.com is expected to be finished near the end of 2014. Cash noted the different nature of the development and its potential to be a difference maker was found in the name the project: Cerner Continuous Campus. The name reveals Cerner Corporation’s staffing plans for the 4,000 employees who will eventually work in the new Wyandotte County home of the company’s ITWorks, which manages the internal computer networks of health-care providers Cerner serves, and RevWorks, which assists clients in their billings, reimbursements and other accounting areas. Cash said those employees would start to have an effect when the first 1,000 workers report to work in Wyandotte County with the opening of the first tower. “That’s going to be a continuous campus,� Cash said. “There’s going to be activity in that world around the clock.� The 24-hour staffing would offer new opportunities to restaurants and retail establishments, Cash said. And the frequent clients Cerner has indicated would visit the new towers would

benefit Wyandotte County’s motels and hotels, she said. She agrees with a statement that Kansas City, Kan./Wyandotte County Unified Government Mayor Joe Reardon made last year that the Cerner development could lead those doing business with the company or those firms in similar or associated ventures to locate nearby. Cash noted the two towers would be very visible marketing tools for recruiting those or other businesses to the county. “It’s another piece of the development puzzle,� she said. “We are looking at two office buildings on the I-435 corridor. We hope it opens up other opportunities for more office towers on the corridor as other companies are intrigued by what is happening on State Avenue.� Cerner’s development agreement with the state made available $147 million in STAR bonds financing for the campus. In addition, the promise of 4,000 new jobs in the state with an average yearly salary of $54,000 leveraged additional incentives. Matt Keith, communications assistant with the Kansas Department of Commerce,

said the project qualified for $78.25 million in tax credits and saving through the state’s IMPACT funds, High Performance Incentive Program and other programs. It is in line for additional personal property tax savings through Enterprise Zone job credits, the amount of which will be determined when the value of the development is established, he said. Peggy Pugh, branch manager of Reece & Nichols Realty’s Wyandotte County office, said the promise of those new jobs was already affecting the local residential real estate market, pointing to a 306-unit apartment complex being built on North 110th Street between State Avenue and Parallel Parkway. Although those apartments would capture some of the new Cerner employees, she is confident many would look for new homes within the county. That is a prospect on developers’ radar, but most were taking a wait-and-see approach until the towers are finished and start populating, she said. “In the best-case scenario, we’d like to get some of them — at least half,� she said. “There’s good access to the north and south, so it should benefit the entire county.�

Casino revenues dip, but officials plan for growth

By Caroline BOYER

cboyer@theworldco.info

T

he Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway may have gotten a slow start, but casino officials say they are right where they want to be. After Hollywood had a stellar opening month in February 2012, revenue during the inaugural year of the casino didn’t quite reach original projections. But Dean Doria, vice president of marketing, says the year fit the pattern often seen at new casinos for Penn National Gaming, which runs the state-owned casino. “The first year went as we expected – we opened up with large crowds, and then things died down a little as people went back to their usual routines, before they started ramping back up again,� Doria said. The slowdown after opening is reflected in the 3 percent of gaming revenues the casino gives to local governments through the state.

The Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., last year projected it would receive $3.7 million in casino revenue in 2012: $2.3 million for the county, $1.1 million for the Kansas City, Kan., share. The cities of Bonner Springs and Edwardsville also receive some of the revenue. The revenue distributions take about two months to parcel out, so numbers from December are not yet available, but Edwin Birch, public information officer for the Unified Government, said the total amount of revenue distributed to the local governments thus far from 2012 was $3.09 million: • Wyandotte County – $1,546,294 • Kansas City – $773,147 • Bonner Springs – $486,000 • Edwardsville – $287,147 Those numbers may see a significant increase thanks to the holiday shopping in December, when Doria said retail

traffic from Village West boosted traffic at the casino. “Especially in December, we felt that we benefitted from that because of the additional retail traffic from the holidays,� he said. The casino also may see more visitors in the future on weekends when races take place at the Kansas Speedway. Traffic related to the first race that took place after the casino’s opening, in April 2012, caused some problems for casino visitors, but by the second race in October, Doria said most of those issues had been solved. “Crowds were much better the second race for us, I think partially because people were more aware we were here,� he said. “Hopefully by the third race coming up in April, it will be even better.� The casino celebrated its first anniversary Feb. 3 with a $15,000 giveaway and other rewards for

gamblers, and on Feb. 7, it planned to present a $1.1 million check to the county to fulfill a charitable contribution agreement: $500,000 of which would go to local charities, $100,000 to parks and recreation, and another $500,000 to be split among the non-host school districts in the county. “As corporate citizens, we’re proud to be able to fulfill that commitment,� Doria said. Birch said the Unified Government Commission continues to meet in order to lay out a plan and set policy as to how the additional casino dollars with be distributed from the local charity contribution. As for the future, Doria said the casino remains committed to its original agreement of constructing a hotel within two years of the casino’s opening, but the company is still working to find hotel to partner with. The hotel would be built on the casino’s west side.

KCKCC, Providence among those offering healthcare opportunities By Melissa TREOLO

T

2013 5

mtreolo@theworldco.info

raining and job opportunities in the healthcare field abound in and around Wyandotte County. At Kansas City Kansas Community College, educational opportunities include the registered nurse and licensed practical nurse programs. “And then we have two variations where the LPN can become an RN, and also the variation where a respiratory therapist or paramedic can become an RN,� said Shirley Wendel, dean of allied health and nursing. Other options include the physical therapy assistant program, exercise science, mortuary science and EMT technician training. And while an associate degree is the highest educational level available at the two-year college, KCKCC has agreements with other schools — such as Kansas University — that allow students to complete degrees in fewer than four years, Wendel said. The registered nursing

program at KCKCC attracts about 250 students, Wendel said. “We’re one of the largest programs in the state,� she said. “We’ve been at capacity since 2006.� The school admits 60 new students into the program each semester, she said. IN REFOCUS MODE Part of the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth Health System, the University of St. Mary has “a very good reputation, particularly in nursing education,� said spokesman John Shultz. But of late, he said, the college has made some updates to its healthcare education offerings, he said, “more finely focusing on health care education right now.� In June 2012, St. Mary launched its first doctorate program, offering students the chance to earn a doctor of physical therapy. “The DPT has been tremendously popular,� Shultz said. In 2011, the college also began offering students a chance to earn an accelerated nursing degree.

“The point of that program is for folks who are looking basically for a second career,â€? Shultz said. Other offerings include the health information management program, as well as an online program for students who already hold an associate’s degree as a registered nurse but are looking to pursue a bachelor’s degree. Shultz said about 150 students from across the county are taking part in the online program. WHAT ABOUT AFTER THE DIPLOMA? Wendel and Shultz said it can be tough to land a job as a nurse or other healthcare provider. “It’s probably been the tightest I’ve ever seen it in 40 years,â€? Wendel said. “But (employers are) still hiring ‌ there’s more job openings in healthcare than other fields.â€? And hospitals in Wyandotte County say they are looking to hire new graduates. “We like to hire new grads, most places do,â€? said Kendra

Consiglio, human resources business partner for Providence Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan. “It gives you the opportunity to really teach that individual how the things work on your floors, specifically to the care that maybe this gives or each unit gives.� Consiglio said Providence has several staff nursing positions open right now, and generally hires more than 200 people a year for different areas of the hospital. On what stands out to Consiglio when looking at applicants, she said attention to detail goes a long way. “I look at how they have formatted their actual resume,� she said, noting that spelling errors are enough for a resume to go to the bottom of the pile. “(I need to see) that they’ve taken the time to put that together and present it in a professional nature.� Cynthia Smith, recruitment manager for the KU Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., estimated the hospital hired more than 1,500 people in 2012 — largely due

to the hospital’s purchase of the Heartland Healthcare Center in Overland Park and because the hospital earned status as a National Cancer Center Institute. “And with that achievement comes a lot of positions around research and new specialty areas,â€? she said. Smith said the hospital hired 175 new clinical nursing positions last year, and is beginning the hiring process for more nurses now. Other open positions include those in allied health, management and information technology. Smith said it was a good idea to follow a course of education that focuses on healthcare in some way, but that not doing so wouldn’t necessarily keep someone from getting a job at KU Hospital. “We have many positions that are just requiring a high school diploma. ‌ We always tell people, get in now, at whatever level you are. And then we will assist you to go to the next level, because we’re an academic medical center. Academia’s what we’re about.â€?

Area’s retail development spurs construction of apartment complexes

By Caroline BOYER

Wyandotte County. The need for housing for those who work at the retail area and those who soon will be working at the Cerner Corp. campus means Tiner’s new complex will have many potential renters. “The deal I’m excited about is, when you get upscale apartments, you’re looking at having more house sales,� said Tiner, who also developed the Bonner Springs single-family neighborhood Lei

Valley, where house prices in the last decade have gone from a maximum of $190,000 to a maximum of $320,000. Edwin Birch, public information officer for the county, said four other apartment complexes are in the works in western Wyandotte County, with a total of more than 1,480 apartment units. The most visible apartments, immediately west of the retail area, will be the $34 million

Village West Luxury Apartments, a 306-unit complex that broke ground Jan. 18 at 110th Street and Stadium Drive. The apartments, which will include attached and detached garages, walking trails, clubhouse, and an interior water feature, are expected to be complete by September. At the groundbreaking of the apartments, Joe Reardon, Mayor and CEO of the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., reflected on the housing developments that the county’s growth has spurred. “We’ve focused on this amazing asset here in Village West, and we decided long ago to invest in economic development projects that would attract people to work and live in our community like the high-quality jobs with Cerner. Those pieces of

the puzzle are forming together in an amazing way,â€? Reardon said. In addition to Tiner’s complex in Bonner Springs, to be called “The Villages,â€? other apartments in some stage of development are: • Delaware Ridge, under construction at State Avenue and 130th Street, with 228 one- to three-bedroom market rate units. • Prairie Heights, in the planning stages at State Avenue and 126th Street; market rate apartments to be built in five phases and consist of about 340 one- and two-bedroom units. • Raintree 1 LLC’s yet-to-benamed 592-unit, $50 million apartment complex at 1300 S. 94th St., Edwardsville, a project that has been in the works since 2007. Plans call for the one- to three-bedroom units to be built in two phases.

uy Tiner, a Wyandotte County residential developer, is preparing to build a 248-unit, gated apartment complex sometime in the next year — one of several apartment developments in the works in western Wyandotte County. Why bring such a large development to a small town of about 7,300? “I think that Bonner Springs is ready,� Tiner said. The readiness comes from several factors: the city’s highway access, easily taking residents to various points in the Kansas City metropolitan area; the improvements the city and county are doing to local streets; and perhaps the biggest factor, the Village West economic growth engine in western

Wyandotte County officials pin hopes on additional single-family homes NEW APARTMENT COMPLEXES may be popping up quickly in the next year, but the Unified Government is hoping housing across the county begins to grow at the same rate. The county and Board of Public Utilities this year are waiving certain fees for new home construction. The county also is moving forward with a plan aimed at improving housing in older areas of the county, called the Neighborhood Stabilization program. Edwin Birch, public information officer for the Unified Government, said that the Unified Government, Wyandotte Economic Development Council and BPU had two joint meetings with homebuilders, bankers and Realtors in November to inform them about the incentives aimed at sparking new singlefamily home construction in the county. The county is waiving building permit, inspection and sewer-connection fees this year for single-family home construction on lots platted prior to August 2012. Group members shared their thoughts on the incentive program and offered suggestions on how the entities could all work together to build out some of the existing subdivisions, which eventually led into the discussion of more model homes and the upfront expense that makes it even

riskier and challenging for the developer to build them. The county also is looking at improving housing options in older areas with the Neighborhood Stabilization Program 3, aimed at eliminating abandoned, foreclosed and tax-delinquent property. Thanks to the program, 16 new threebedroom, two-bath homes are under construction in the 2200 block of Quindaro Boulevard, one of the areas the county identified as being hardest hit by blight. Housing and Urban Development mandated the use of a mapping tool using Census tract information to identify the foreclosure risk factor. The results of this mapping tool directed the program to the area from 10th through 27th streets along Quindaro. Interested buyers will be required to attend an eight-hour HUD approved homebuyer counseling session. “The vacant lots that are now occupied by new homes are a great success story in the area of greatest need,� said Nathan Barnes, Unified Government commissioner who represents the area. “The people who have ties with the community understand that these new residential homes prove there is a desire to move back into the neighborhood if a diverse supply of housing is available.�

Shopping opportunities now include Sam’s Club By Ann Margret MONTEMAYOR

T

he fate of the Legend Outlets shopping area is still unknown in 2013, but 2012 was a year of new stores and restaurants for the popular destination. KKR Real Estate Fund Holdings bid $131.5 million for the shopping center at an auction Jan. 25, but no information about a final deal has been released. Page Communications Principal Lee Page, who handles public relations for the Legends Outlets, said he couldn’t comment on the sale. On the retail side, March saw two new stores when Uniform Destination, offering medical scrubs opened, followed by Dress Barn, a women’s fashion retailer Crazy 8, a fashion retailer for children, held its grand opening in August and Toys ‘R’ Us opened in October in time for the holiday shopping season.

Representative Jenna Smith said there aren’t any new stores announced yet for 2013 other than Five and Dime General Store, which is set to open this spring The only new restaurant last year was Chiusano’s Brick Oven Pizzeria, a locally owned and operated brick oven-style pizzeria. It replaced Cheeseburger in Paradise. Several businesses decided to close last year, including Rack Room, Palmer’s Candies and Ice Cream and Nick and Willy’s Pizza. Outside of the Legends Outlets, Kansas City, Kan., got its own Sam’s Club in October, in the Plaza at the Speedway shopping center. It’s opening ceremony was a big event for the county, and Joe Reardon, mayor and CEO of the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., and county commissioners attended the event. Its opening added 175 jobs to the area.

Kansas Speedway to debut road course in August

By Justin NUTTER

ince first opening its gates in 2001, Kansas Speedway has established itself as one of the premier venues in all of stock car racing. Beginning this summer, it will have the opportunity to make its mark “inside” the oval. A new, 2.37-mile infield road course will make its national debut under the lights on Aug. 16 when the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series and Continental Sports Car Challenge Series make their first-ever stop in Kansas. “In some way, shape or form, (a road course) has always been talked about at the speedway,” said Chris Schwartz, vice president of marketing and sales. “It started to become reality four or five years ago as the casino license started to become a reality. We’re excited about it. It exposes the speedway to a group of people that normally wouldn’t be thinking about us.” Construction of the new track began when Kansas Speedway began repaving its oval after the STP 400 on April 22, 2012. The track was completed on Sept. 22 and first tested by Grand-Am racing teams at a public event on Oct. 28-29. “The drivers, they absolutely gushed about the challenge of the course, how fast it was, and the setting,” Schwartz said. “That’s something we take great pride in: representing Kansas City and the region. We passed our first test, if you will, with flying colors.” In addition to road racing, the new track will allow for Formula One, motorcycle and go-cart events. The addition of Kansas to the Grand-

Am schedule gives local road racing fans the chance to see events they used to have to travel across multiple state lines to attend. The next-closest event on the 2013 schedule will take place nearly 500 miles away, at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Kansas Speedway joins Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, as new additions to the road racing schedule. The inaugural race in August will mark just the third time Kansas has played host to a night event since lights were added to the track in early 2011. “Road racing is pretty spectacular,” said Herb Branham, Grand-Am’s managing director of communications. “There’s a lot of action, which is really even more highlighted with the headlights on. It’s a pretty great spectacle. All the stars are aligned for this to be a great debut for Grand-Am at Kansas Speedway.” Branham added that Kansas is already considered a top candidate for Grand-Am’s joint schedule with the American Le Mans Series in 2014. The organizations announced a merger in September. Fans can already purchase tickets for the inaugural Grand-Am event, but additional event details have yet to be announced. The speedway will open its 2013 racing schedule on April 20-21 with the SPF 250 and the STP 400 — the first two of six events. “Our schedule this year is one that we’re proud of,” Schwartz said. “We’ve got a busy season at the speedway, but we’re looking forward to a great year.”

MLS All-Star game coming to KC Sporting Park KANSAS CITY SPORTS FANS got a taste of the national spotlight when the Major League Baseball All-Star Game made its way to Kauffman Stadium last July. As it turns out, the city won’t have to wait long to once again play host to some of the country’s top athletes. On Jan. 10, Major League Soccer announced Sporting Park — home of Sporting Kansas City since June 2011 — as the host of the 18th annual All-Star Game, to be played in front of a national television audience on July 31. “We like to make a push for all the big events,” said Rob Thomson, executive vice president of communications at Sporting Park. “Since our stadium opened a year and a half ago, we’ve had some huge events. Whether it’s the attention or other players seeing our stadium, we love being on the big stage.” The MLS All-Stars will play an international team to be announced at a later date. They earned a 3-2 win against Chelsea in last year’s All-Star Game, played at the Philadelphia Union’s PPL Park. The All-Stars are 6-2-1 all-time against international clubs. Similar to MLB All-Star weekend, there will be events in the days preceding the game itself. A schedule has yet to be announced. “You’ll see a ton of major soccer celebrities and stars in town,” Thomson said. “There will be huge community events that will benefit local charities, and there will be other big festivities, parties,

gala events and dinners. MLS does a good job with their events.” Sporting Kansas City — formerly the Kansas City Wizards — is the last of the 10 original MLS teams to play host to an All-Star game, but the franchise has hardly been short on thrills in recent years. The team defeated Manchester United in 2010 at Arrowhead Stadium in front of a crowd of more than 55,000, and thousands of fans flocked to Kansas City’s Power and Light District that same year for a team-sponsored World Cup watch party. Marquee events — several not directly related to Sporting KC — have been just w w as prevalent since the team moved to Sporting Park. The United States men’s and women’s national teams have each made stops in Kansas City, and the stadium was one of just three venues to play host to a CONCACAF (Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football) men’s Olympic qualifying tournament last spring. Fans haven’t just shown up for special events, either, as Sporting KC sold out 17 of its 18 home games last year, including a U.S. Open Cup victory against the Seattle Sounders on Aug. 9. “That’s just one more example of the work that’s been done in Kansas City,” Thomson said. “It started with our fans and the support they’ve shown. They understand the game; they’re very wellversed in soccer, which has been a spedup process in the last four or five years.”

Improvements planned for highways, bus routes throughout county By Ann Margret MONTEMAYOR

I

mproving transportation for drivers and transit riders has been a priority for Wyandotte County during the last year. With a new bus route and work about to begin at Kansas Highway 7 and U.S. Interstate 70, transportation officials are hoping residents find it easier to get where they’re going. THE INTERCHANGE After suppressing some of its fears about Kansas Department of Transportation’s K-7/I-70 interchange project, the city of Bonner Springs decided to submit revisions for its memorandum of understanding in November. Despite the uncertainty of the memorandum, KDOT metro engineer Jim Pickett doesn’t expect the debate over revised plans to delay the project’s first phase. “We both, the city and us, have tried to understand the other’s position and do our best in accommodating that,� Pickett said. The $300 million interchange project is separated into 10 phases, including single-point urban interchanges at K-7 and Kansas Avenue and K-7 and 130th Street. The first three phases should take about two years to complete. Since the project’s inception, Bonner Springs has had concerns about KDOT’s proposal, but it wasn’t until the city of Olathe backed out of its memorandum of understanding last year that it decided to ask for revisions, Bonner Springs City Manager John “Jack� Helin said. Helin said the city’s main concern with the project is that construction would move forward whether or not the improvements were truly needed according to traffic calculations. Construction of new interchanges could also harm the business community, Helin said, and without specific deadlines for all phases, it’s hard to attract new businesses. Some of the city’s revisions include determining a “no earlier than� date before work would begin on interchanges beyond the I-70 interchange and examining actual traffic counts that would be reached before any interchange is constructed. When Bonner Springs City Council members approved a memorandum of understanding in November, they also agreed the city will terminate the memorandum unless satisfactory revisions are made. Neither KDOT nor Bonner Springs

amontemayor@theworldco.info officials think it will come to that, however. “We said ‘Let’s come up with a mutually agreeable plan,’� Helin said. “We are at a critical junction and we understand the responsibility of cooperating with KDOT to move traffic.� Pickett said KDOT will respond to the revisions soon, but he doesn’t foresee a problem working with the city’s concerns. “We’ve broken the overall project into phases that can be constructed when they’re needed,� he said. “We don’t want to build anything until it’s needed.� Pickett said the first phase of the project will likely start on time this spring with rebuilding the Riverview Avenue Bridge and realigning 122nd Street and Riverview Avenue. The interchange project had been funded through phase 3 and recently gained funding through the design and right of way acquisition of phase 4 by federal earmark funds. Although the project hasn’t technically broken ground, the city of Bonner Springs is already preparing for the first phases. Helin said the city is preparing to take bids in March for the relocation of utilities along the corridor to 134th Street. As soon as the first phase is completed in fall 2014, drivers will start to reap the benefits of the project, Pickett said. For more information about the interchange project, visit k7andi70interchange.org. NEW ROUTE While two transit centers along the new State Avenue/KCK Connex bus line are still under construction, the route has already proved to be a popular among riders. The 14-mile route runs from 10th and Main in downtown Kansas City, Mo., through downtown Kansas City, Kan., and ends at Village West at 109th Street and Parallel Parkway. Edwin Birch, Unified Government public information officer, said ridership for all Wyandotte County routes is expected to surpass 1.3 million when numbers are in for 2012, which is a 15 percent increase from 2010. Once completed, the new transit centers in downtown Kansas City, Kan., and Indian Springs are expected to play a large role in the entire transit system. “More than half (of riders) will go through the new metro and Indian Springs centers,� Birch said.

After breaking ground in July 2012, the Downtown Kansas City, Kan., MetroCenter, at Seventh Street and Minnesota, is expected to be completed in June. Officials broke ground on the Midtown KCK MetroCenter, at 47th and State Avenue, in September and expect it to be completed in August of this year. Once completed, the transit centers should lead to a quicker ride from downtown Kansas City, Mo., to western Wyandotte County, said Emerick Cross, UG transportation director. “Transit riders and community members have all expressed great enthusiasm and interest in all of these new transit ventures,� Cross said. CONNEX transportation enhancements are going well, Cross added, and he’s received positive feedback from transit riders.

“In general, our transit riders are very grateful for the improvements and are looking forward to seeing the final product,� he said. Even though construction isn’t complete on the new transit centers, ridership rates have proved the success of the new route, Birch said. In October, growing passenger demand on Saturdays meant new larger buses for the KCK Connex route. Providing hourly trips between 6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. on Saturdays, the route averaged 860 riders before the bus upgrade and 960 after larger buses were put in service “This definitely goes to show a commitment by Unified Government to respond to requests from residents to improve the transit system,� Birch said. “Our buses are full.� To view route maps and times, visit kcata.org.

Recreational opportunities abound

By Stephen MONTEMAYOR

he water boils — and, in winter, little icebergs crash — at the confluence of the Kansas and Missouri rivers at Kaw Point Park. Seen as a sacred point by Native Americans centuries ago and explored by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark in the early 1800s, the point, and a surrounding park, is ready to be discovered again. “The magic of this park is the confluence of the two rivers,� Kaw Point Park chairman Mike Calwell said. “People are always enchanted by rivers. You just can’t help the feeling of when you stand and see two rivers crash together. And at night it’s really an unparalleled scene when it takes on a rainbow color.� Recreation opportunities abound in Wyandotte County and some, like Kaw Point Park, converge leisure with history. Calwell and a board of directors gathered to renovate the park after the 1993 flood and years of neglect. What had become more or less a junkyard transformed into a 10-acre park that in October was designated as a Natural Historic Trail Destination. Now,

smontemayor@theworldco.info with the oversight of a board of directors and scores of annual volunteers, Kaw Point Park is as attractive as ever. “You can get amazing stuff done with 200 people on a 10-acre piece of property,� Calwell said. Another recent addition is a $2.5 million natural stone amphitheater. At the Confluence of Nations Plaza, the focal point of the park, flags from 19 regional native tribes are represented and an open-air education pavilion describes the events of Lewis and Clark’s 1804 stay at the point. A 24-hour boat ramp was constructed in 2004 at the confluence of the two rivers and 600 yards of biking and hiking trails line the park, also open 24 hours a day. “When people come through, I never fail to hear someone say, ‘Man, what a cool place; how come I didn’t know about it?’� Calwell said. SPEND A DAY AT THE LAKE Wyandotte County Lake Park offers recreation opportunities as diverse as the park is expansive. Scenic nature and bridle trails surround the lake and the F.L.

exhibits of the various native wildlife from around the lake area. The library is also host to the annual Eagle Day Celebration, which typically takes place each year in late January or early February. Up to a dozen species of fish can be caught in the 407-acre lake. Edwin Birch, public information officer for the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., also said the Kansas University women’s rowing team will use the lake on occasion. Birch called the lake one of the hottest recreation spots in Wyandotte County, with fishermen and boaters a presence year round. With 16 shelters surrounding the lake, Birch said, the lake is a popular destination for many living both within and outside the county. Wyandotte County Park in the northern tip of Bonner Springs is also a popular destination, and is also the site of multiple high school cross-country meets each fall. For a full list of the dozens of parks in Wyandotte County, visit wycokck. org. SOCCER FIELDS STILL FORTHCOMING Birch said that while basketball

remains a popular youth activity across Wyandotte County, soccer has continued to swell in popularity. A growing Hispanic population coupled with the presence of Sporting Kansas City — and the franchise’s promise to build a new 18-field tournamentquality soccer complex at Wyandotte County Park — has helped stoke the sport’s popularity in the area, Birch said. The soccer fields were part of the deal that brought Sporting Park and the Cerner office development to the VillageWest area. Though Sporting KC’s late 2012 target passed without ground breaking on the project, the club insists it is committed to building the fields, which would be placed along the northern areas of the park with others near the Wyandotte County Historical Museum. “We’re trying to make this the best project for as many people as possible,� Sporting KC spokesman Rob Thompson said. “If we rolled it out two years ago, it wouldn’t have been as robust as we are trying to make it now.� Thompson said more news from the club would come soon, calling recent

Progress media reports indicating Sporting KC had reneged on its promise “unfair.� “We set the deadline with this, and it is something we are prioritizing, something that makes the most amount of sense for people,� Thompson said. Added Birch, “It’s taking a little bit longer than what had been expected. They want to make sure everything is the best quality, just like their own soccer stadium.� GO 18 HOLES Sunflower Hills Golf Course, 12200 Riverview Road, Bonner Springs, is home to the annual Wyandotte County Open, the longest running tournament of its kind in the greater Kansas City area. Wyandotte County is also home to Dub’s Dread Golf Course, 12601 Hollingsworth Road, Kansas City, Kan., and Painted Hills Golf Course, 7101 Parallel Parkway, Kansas City, Kan. Dub’s Dread was named one of the state’s top 10 golf courses by Golf Digest in 1996 and since it opened in the early 1960s has seen golfers such as Byron Nelson, Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus try to solve it. Painted Hills is adorned by tree-lined fairways and features a banquet facility capable of serving up to 275 guests or an additional 125 on its veranda overlooking the golf course.

EVEN MORE • Reservations for community or recreation centers can be made in person at the Unified Government’s administration office, 5033 State Ave. Birch said the community centers fill up around holidays and are popular for annual arts and craft events. • Both Kansas City, Kan., and Kansas City, Mo., mayors celebrated the completion of the bi-state Kansas and Missouri Bike Trail project in late 2012.

The concept for the Riverfront Heritage Trail came about more than 14 years ago. Designed as a fully accessible, welllit bicycle and pedestrian pathway, the trail extends from the riverfront through some of the most historic parts of bi-state Kansas City. • An ongoing partnership with the Kansas City T-Bones minor league baseball franchise, the Wyandotte County Parks Foundation and the Unified Government continues to produce

2013 11

accessible playgrounds in the county. The new playgrounds, the latest of which was unveiled near the main entrance of Wyandotte County Lake Park, are part of an effort to build playgrounds throughout the county that are accessible per the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. • Schlitterbahn Kansas City Waterpark begins its fifth season in 2013 and second in which visitors will get the park’s full experience after years of expansion. Lodging and retail developments are still in the works, but the park’s aquatic amenities are now at full strength. The park’s 2013 season extends from May 24 to Sept. 2. The full 2013 season price for ages 12-54 is $124.99, although an early-bird special of $109.99 is still under way at schlitterbahn.com. Meanwhile, ages 3-11 and 55 and older can save $10 off the full 2013 price of $84.99. General admission in 2013 will run from $28.99 for an all-day pass for children and seniors and $36.99 for ages 12-54. • A plow once owned by President Harry Truman is among the more than 300,000 agricultural relics on display at the National Agriculture Hall of Fame. In 1960, President Dwight D. Eisenhower issued a rare federal charter to the National Agricultural Center and Hall of Fame, also called the Ag Center, to serve as a national museum of agriculture as well as a memorial to farmers.
