AN EARLY FLIGHT TUESDAY MORNING highlights construction of a new bridge at the east edge of the Lawrence Turnpike service area.

Service area construction coming along By Brenna Hawley bhawley@ljworld.com

Traffic on the Kansas Turnpike is down to one lane at the service center east of Lawrence. The Kansas Turnpike Authority is working to replace a section of 1950s concrete road between mile markers 208 and 211 . The Lawrence Service Area will

remain open during the construction. Rex Fleming, engineer and project manager for KTA, said the project, which started last spring, should be finished by November. Crews have pulverized the concrete and graded the road, and they will soon bring in the crushed pavement to lay a base. “Within a few weeks we’ll start laying asphalt,” he said.

“We still have the other side to go.” The project includes rebuilding bridges that crossed the service station onand off-ramps. Crews are extending the ramps for safer entry and exit, and the bridges were not tall enough for cars to drive under. Fleming said they would be moving traffic from lane to lane to keep the service station open.

The KTA is also completing construction on exit 204 in Lawrence. At 7 a.m. Thursday, traffic exiting westbound will be switched to the new, permanent ramp. It’s hoped, Fleming said, that traffic heading west onto the turnpike will be switched to a new ramp Monday morning.

Kassie Liebsch wants to be near her parents in Wisconsin. Rodney Jones would prefer to spend the next few years in nearby Leavenworth. Thomas Blubaugh hasn’t indicated a preference. Just where the three co-conspirators in the KU tickets scandal will be incarcerated depends on the U.S. Bureau of Prisons. Two others are still awaiting sentencing. “Often the defense attorney or the inmate will ask for a specific designation for whatever reason,” said Chris Burke, a spokesman for the bureau in Washington, D.C. “It is just a recommendation. We try to comply with those whenever we can, but we can’t always do it.” Absent appeals, Liebsch, Jones and Blubaugh each will be responsible for surrendering — whether that’s to the bureau, to the U.S. Marshal’s Service or perhaps even to a specific institution — at an as-yet-unannounced time and date.

Kobach defends stance on illegal immigration Commissioners Hundreds gather in protest outside Lied Center

By Joe Preiner jpreiner@ljworld.com

Hundreds of Kris Kobach critics waited outside the Lied Center on Kansas University’s West Campus on Tuesday evening to let him know what they thought of his work with anti-immigration legislation. Kobach, Kansas Secretary of State, lectured as part of the J.A. Vickers Sr. and Robert F. Vickers Sr. Memorial Lecture Series. Kobach is known nationally for his work in helping to draft the Arizona anti-immigration policy, which has been called the most broad and strict policy at the state level. Since taking office in January, he has focused on introducing similar legislation in Kansas focused on immigration policy and voter fraud. His lecture Tuesday was titled, “State and Local Laws Discouraging Illegal Immigration: Their Economic and Security Impact.” Bill Dymacek was among the members of the outdoor crowd, many of whom held signs in protest of the Kansas Secretary of State. “This immigration thing is just the smoke screen in my opinion,”

Dymacek said. “I’d have more respect for him if he’d be honest about it and just say this is a chance to get fewer minorities to vote because they tend to vote more Democratic and it’s more votes for Republicans.” While the crowd engaged in chants such as “No hate in my state,” “Educate don’t discriminate” and “No one is illegal,” the participants remained peaceful. Members of the Lawrence Action Network for Diversity were trying to educate those attending the lecture on the bigger picture. “We’re well overdue for a big policy change,” group member Tanya Golash-Boza said. “What’s happened is states have taken it up, which is not a good idea. We certainly don’t want to waste money on something the federal government needs to take a stand on and figure out a way to legalize.” Inside the Lied Center, there was Mike Yoder/Journal-World Photo much more support for Kobach’s ideas and proposed legislation. KANSAS SECRETARY OF STATE KRIS KOBACH SPEAKS Kobach talked about the actions he Tuesday about the economic and security impact of illegal believes states should be taking on immigration during the Kansas University School of Business’ J.A.

DEATHS B ETTY J UNE R ICHARDSON WALLIS CONDRY Funeral services for Betty June Richardson Wallis Condry, 80, Lawrence, will be at 12:30 p.m. Saturday at Floral Haven Funeral Home Chapel, Broken Arrow, Okla.

Mrs. Condry, the mother of C. Rex Wallis of Bonner Springs, died Monday, April 11, 2011, at Brandon Woods at Alvamar Nursing Center.

Lyla Jean George Lyla Jean George, 85, of Oskaloosa, died Monday, April 11, 2011, at Hickory Pointe Care Center in Oskaloosa. She was born October 5, 1925 at Pleasant Grove, KS., the daughter of Dewey Basil and Anna Mae Williams Terry. She had lived in Oskaloosa many years. George Lyla was a homemaker and she also worked as a painter and wallpaper hanger for many years in Jefferson County. She was a member of the First Baptist Church of McLouth.

The bureau determines where, exactly, an inmate will be incarcerated after receiving documentation from the judge in the case, Burke said. The bureau does not disclose where or when an inmate will report, both for security and privacy reasons. Liebsch, a former systems analyst at Kansas Athletics Inc. who served less than a year as leader of the department’s ticket office, has asked to be assigned to a center near her parents in Wisconsin. She made the request during her sentencing hearing in Wichita, as her parents sat in the back row of the gallery. She is scheduled to spend 37 months in prison, a total that could be reduced by 15 percent for good behavior. The bureau has two camps for minimum-security female inmates in Illinois. “I hope they can find a place,” U.S. District Judge Wesley Brown told Liebsch, who was crying during her hearing. “Good luck and take care.” Jones, former assistant athletics director for the

She was preceded in death by a son, William “Bill” George, and two brothers, Cecil Terry and Frank Terry. Graveside Services will be at 10:00 a.m. Saturday at the Pleasant View Cemetery in Oskaloosa.

Williams Fund, asked Brown to help him be assigned to the federal prison camp in Leavenworth. That’s so that he could be close to friends, family and other supporters during his 46-month sentence, which could be shortened by nearly seven months for good behavior. The camp for minimumsecurity inmates is the same place where NFL quarterback Michael Vick was incarcerated for his conviction on animal-abuse charges. Brown reminded Jones that he actually has no control over prison assignments, saying that such duties were the responsibility solely of the Bureau of Prisons. “It’s their job,” Brown told Jones and his attorney. Blubaugh, a former paid consultant to Kansas Athletics, did not request a specific prison assignment. He was sentenced Monday to spend 46 months in federal custody. Blubaugh’s wife, Charlette Blubaugh — former leader of the ticket office — is scheduled for sentencing Thursday in Wichita. Sentencing for Ben Kirtland, former associate athletics director for development, is set for May 12. — Schools reporter Mark Fagan can be reached at 832-7188.

KBA refutes Wagle’s attacks By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — State Sen. Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, on Tuesday resumed her attack on the Kansas Bioscience Authority with new criticisms, but leaders at the economic development agency said she was wrong. In an email to reporters, Wagle cited a YouTube video of KBA President and CEO Tom Thornton speaking before a business group in Wisconsin as evidence that Thornton was wasting taxpayers’ money. In the talk, Thornton talks about a KBA plan to try to attract venture capital firms, saying that the firms are not required to invest in Kansas companies. Wagle said Thornton was showing “disdain” for Kansas taxpayers. “Our goal is to create new jobs and foster economic growth in Kansas, not Illinois, not Wisconsin, and not any other state,” Wagle said. But KBA board chairman John Carlin and David

the city was positioning itself well for a rebound in the economy. “Economic times continue to be tight and revenues remain pretty flat,” Amyx said. “Despite these challenges, I strongly feel the City Commission has made wise choices and has provided resources where they are needed most.” Amyx, who will remain on the commission, also closed out his one-year term as mayor. Commissioners unanimously elected Commissioner Aron Cromwell to serve as mayor. Cromwell also sounded a theme that the city has done well considering the problems in the broader economy. The city has added to its cash reserves during the last four years, has avoided large-scale layoffs of employees and has continued to make community investments — most recently winning voter approval for an $18 million expansion of the Lawrence Public Library. “The last two years I have been on this commission, we have been having an economic firestorm,” Cromwell said. “But because of the leadership that has sat up here before me, we’re in a pretty good position. I don’t know that folks realize how fortunate we are in Lawrence.” Newly elected commissioners Hugh Carter and Bob Schumm both joined the com-

Vranicar, president of Heartland Bioventures, the commercialization arm of the KBA, said the agency’s plan to lure venture capital firms has been hugely successful. “We’ve gone from no venture capital firms to three, and our expectation is there will be more soon,” Vranicar said. He said those companies are not legally required to invest in Kansas businesses, but the KBA steers them toward in-state companies. And funds invested by the KBA into the venture capital firms comes back in investment returns to benefit KBAled programs, he said. Carlin said, “We’re very proud of what’s been done.” In a news release, Wagle also said the KBA awarded $5 million to Midwest Venture Partners, which she said “didn’t even have a venture fund.” But Vranicar said KBA has not invested anything in Midwest Ventures. “They did not meet all of our requirements,” he said. Wagle has been critical of the KBA for the past several

mission on Tuesday. Incumbent Mike Dever was sworn in for a second four-year term after finishing second in last week’s election. Schumm, as the top vote-winner in the recent election, unanimously was elected to serve as vicemayor. That puts him in position to serve a one-year term as mayor in April 2012. “It feels good to be here. It has been 18 years since I’ve last been here,” said Schumm, who has served two previous stints on the commission, the most recent from 1987 to 1993. Rob Chestnut and Lance Johnson both ended their terms on the commission. Neither Chestnut — who served four years — nor Johnson — who served two — sought re-election. Both outgoing commissioners praised the work of city staff members and said Lawrence residents were served well by its elected leaders. “You guys are based on principles,” Johnson said to fellow commissioners. “I was very blessed to serve in that environment. Not one decision was made here for selfish reasons.” Chestnut said he expects that same type of service will continue. “This is a great city that has a great heart that really believes in being a community,” Chestnut said. “And that’s why no matter what we face, we’ll have a great future.” — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362.

immigration issues. He also touched on what makes states successful in implementing those actions as well as the legal ramifications of such legislation. Kobach, who is Ivy League educated, also cited numerous state statistics on illegal immigration in Kansas, highlighting what he believes to be the serious issues. Among those numbers, Kobach said an estimated 70,000 illegal aliens currently reside in the Sunflower State. He called Kansas a “destination state” and a “passage state” for illegal immigration. Kobach also addressed issues of financial ramifications endured both by allowing illegal immigrants to stay and returning them to their home countries. “We’re at a dangerous

months. Recently, it was revealed that the Johnson County District Attorney’s office had launched a criminal investigation into the KBA, but has refused to say what is being looked into. KBA officials have denied any wrongdoing. Last week, Gov. Sam Brownback asked that the KBA undergo a forensic audit. The board agreed and hired a firm, but Brownback and Wagle have questioned whether the audit will be independent of the board’s influence. “This auditor has been hired by the KBA and will be directed by the KBA to only look at expenditures that are legitimate. They will not dig in the dirt. The fox is guarding the hen house,” Wagle said. But Carlin has said the audit will be independent and has invited Brownback and legislative leaders to share any concerns or information with the auditors. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

Passover events for students planned By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

Members of the Kansas University Jewish communities will commemorate Passover with upcoming celebrations open to the public. “This is one of the most central and widely celebrated holidays because it’s very central to the birth of our nation,” said Rabbi Zalman Tiechtel of the Rohr Chabad Center for Jewish Life, which serves the KU and surrounding communities. KANSAS The holiUNIVERSITY day is celebrated with a Seder dinner, a religious celebration that features a variety of different foods designed to remind Jews of the suffering of their people over the generations, Tiechtel said. “What’s unique about Passover in America is that we’re celebrating our freedoms,” he said. It’s a family-oriented holiday, Tiechtel said, and the celebrations partially are designed to make sure that students who are far from home have a “family” to celebrate with. Anyone interested in participating in a Seder dinner can sign up online at hawkseder.com. The center may also be reached at 8328672. Seders will be at 8:30 p.m. Monday and Tuesday at the Chabad Jewish Center, 1201 W. 19th St. Students and children are asked to pay $10 per dinner, and adults are asked to pay $25 per dinner, though no one will be turned away for lack of funds. The KU Hillel organization will also be sponsoring a Shabbat to commemorate Passover, said Erika Meltzer, vice president of KU Hillel. Signup is available online at kuhillel.org (though registration must be completed by today. For the Seder dinner at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Maceli’s, 1031 N.H., the cost is $18 per person. — Higher education reporter Andy Hyland can be reached at 832-6388.

Egypt detains Mubarak’s sons Egyptian prosecutors ordered detention of the former president’s powerful sons for 15 days while allegations of corruption and the abuse of their authority are investigated, state television said early today. The move, the most dramatic in a series of investigations against top regime officials, comes just hours after former President Hosni Mubarak, 82, was hospitalized with heart problems as he too was to be questioned by prosecutors. Gamal Mubarak, his younger son, was a top official in the ruling party and was widely seen as being groomed to succeed his father before 18 days of popular protests brought down the regime on Feb. 11. 2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

U.S. holds to limited Libya role Despite rebel setbacks and an increasingly public rift with NATO allies, the U.S. will stick to its plan to remain in the back seat of the Libya air campaign, the Obama administration insisted Tuesday after three weeks of air missions that have failed to turn the tide against Moammar Gadhafi. France’s defense minister declared that without full American participation, the West probably would not be able to stop attacks by Gadhafi loyalists on besieged rebel cities. U.S. officials said they were comfortable with their role and had no plans to step up involvement, even as British and French officials said Washington’s military might was needed to ensure the mission’s success. The Americans said NATO could carry out the operation without a resumption of the heavy U.S. efforts that kicked it off last month. 2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

Poll: Support of health care law drops Amid a budget debate that will affect the health care of virtually every family, a new poll finds support for President Barack Obama’s overhaul at its lowest level since passage last year. But in a ringing defense of Obama’s policies, Medicare chief Donald Berwick pleaded Tuesday for more time on the health care law, and branded a leading Republican plan “unfair and harmful” and “a form of withholding care.” The Associated Press-GfK poll showed that support for Obama’s expansion of health insurance coverage has slipped to 35 percent, while opposition stands at 45 percent and another 17 percent are neutral. That nearly ties the previous low in September 2009, when after a summer of heated town hall meetings dominated by critics, only 34 percent supported Obama’s approach. 3 | NEW YORK CITY

Huge airliner sends small plane spinning A frightening collision between one of the world’s largest airliners and a commuter jet on a dark, wet tarmac at Kennedy Airport is underscoring worries about ground accidents as U.S. airports begin handling a new generation of giant planes. A total of 586 passengers and crew members were aboard the two aircraft Monday night when the left wing of an Airbus A380 operated by Air France clipped a Bombardier CRJ-700 regional jet flown by Comair, spinning the smaller plane nearly 90 degrees. No one was injured. The superjumbo Airbus is so immense — as tall as a seven-story building, with a wing span as wide as a Manhattan block — that its wing could have almost cleared the smaller plane. But not quite. The collision happened at one of the nation’s most congested airports on a rainy night when flashing lights reflecting off wet tarmac can obscure small aircraft. It comes as airports around the country are beginning to receive a new class of huge aircraft.

Student receives award for work in Douglas County; others honored By Brenna Hawley bhawley@ljworld.com

Mckenzie Brungardt collects blood, responds to disasters around Douglas County and helps with health and safety education while she volunteers at the American Red Cross. In the last three years, she’s put in 200 hours each year of volunteer time, helping with office tasks, serving as a CPR training aide and responding to fires. And in Brungardt’s spare time, she attends seventh grade at West Junior High School. Brungardt is the youth recipient of the 2010 Wallace Galluzzi Outstanding Volunteer of the Year award, given by the United Way Roger Hill Volunteer Center. She was recognized Tuesday afternoon at the Celebration of Volunteers luncheon as part of National Volunteer Week. Adult awardwinner Katie Becker and more than 50 other volunteers or groups were honored at the luncheon, some being recognized for as many as 37 years of service to their organization. Brungardt wasn’t aware she had won before the ceremony. She was surprised when she received the honor and had advice for other young volunteers. “No matter how old you are, you can always make a difference,” Brungardt said. “I just like doing something that other kids wouldn’t do.” The award is named for Wallace Galluzzi, who served as chair of the United Way cam-

For people who felt pressured to drink, he suggested mixing a glass of ice, tonic water and a lime, and sloshing it on people occasionally at parties. “Don’t let those pressures sucker you in,” he said. But he didn’t say not to drink — he suggested that students do so in a more responsible manner. That meant less bragging about drunken idiocy and quitting complaining about being bored and having nothing else to do.

“If you’re bored in college, you’re probably not mature enough to be there yet,” he said. Sarah Nettles, of Sigma Kappa sorority, is a sophomore from Leawood. She was at last year’s event, too, and she said that Barnes was more laid-back than last year’s presenters and that he seemed to connect with more students, while making clear that bad choices can have serious consequences, even death. “Especially talking to a group of college students, it’s the elephant in the room that no one talks about,” she said. Still, Rumage said he’s aware that many won’t take it to heart. It’s a tricky problem — he doesn’t drink hard alcohol anymore after Wren’s death and other events in his life, but knows he can’t force good decisions on others. “You can’t scare people into doing the right thing,” he said. “You have to provide people with the information and hope they do the best they can.” — Higher education reporter Andy Hyland can be reached at 832-6388.

If a sports announcer were broadcasting the Take Charge Challenge competition, here’s what you’d likely hear: “At the bottom of the first quarter, Lawrence is trailing Manhattan 2 to 1. The Little Apple’s done a fine job of reaching out to students, homeowners and local businesses. If River City wants to win it, they’ve got to increase their focus on switching out incandescent light bulbs and post better numbers at community events. There’s a lot on the line here, folks.” And really, there is a lot on the line: $100,000. Since January, Manhattan and Lawrence have been competing to see whose residents can save the most energy. The winner receives $100,000 to spend on a renewable energy project. In the first two and a half months of competition, Manhattan has Lawrence beat in two of the three categories: ● Four percent of Manhattan residents, close to 2,500 people, have been involved in the process. The Take Charge Challenge Manhattan leadership team has reached out at home shows, basketball games and through Kansas State University’s campus and Greek system. In comparison, about 1 percent of Lawrence’s population has participated. ● Both Lawrence and Manhattan have switched more than 3,000 incandescent bulbs to more energy efficient compact fluorescent ones. However, because Manhattan has fewer residents, the per capita amount of energy saved is higher. ● Lawrence has dominated in one area: the number of energy efficiency audits done on homes. In Lawrence, 51 audits have been done compared with four in Manhattan. That’s good news because that’s the category that saves the most energy and money, according to Lawrence and Douglas County sustainability coordinator Eileen Horn. “It’s great to be leading in this category because it is the one that requires the most front-end prep work,” Horn said. At the start, Lawrence’s leadership team focused on reaching out to homeowners and neighborhood associations to encourage people to make significant changes to their homes, Lawrence’s Take Charge Challenge coordinator Margaret Tran said.

Shooting charges against woman dropped By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Charges filed against a 21year-old Lawrence woman in connection with a 2008 shooting were dropped after a judge found Tuesday there was not enough evidence presented against her at a preliminary hearing. After one witness and Stephen Patterson, who was shot that day, testified that they did not remember specifics about the events, Douglas County prosecutors did not ask District Judge Paula Martin to bind Asia Shanae Morrison over for trial. Morrison had faced aggravated battery and aggravated robbery charges related to the April 2008 shooting of Patterson. “Ms. Morrison maintained her innocence from the beginning, and the evidence today and last week just proved that that was the case,” defense attorney Carl Folsom said. Assistant District Attorney Michael Allen did ask Martin

to order co-defendant Dustin D. Walker, 26, to face a trial on an aggravated battery charge, but Martin said she would rule on that later. Patterson, 23, testified in Tuesday’s preliminary hearing that he was high after smoking PCP that day and said he only recalled waking up in the hospital. Patterson was shot in the left leg, and the bullet exited and became lodged in his right calf. Patterson is currently in custody, accused of violating parole for 2009 convictions for drug possession, aggravated assault and battery. Brandy Souza testified last week and Tuesday that she was in the apartment at the time of the shooting, but she didn’t remember much because of drug use. Prosecutors earlier this year filed aggravated battery and aggravated robbery charges against Walker and Morrison for the April 22, 2008, shooting of Patterson at an apartment in the 2500 block of Redbud Lane.

Souza did testify that Morrison and Walker had come to Patterson’s apartment to pick up Morrison’s son, but Folsom said there was no evidence that Morrison knew what had occurred. According to testimony last week, Walker told police that Patterson had a gun, charged him during an altercation in the apartment, and that the gun discharged during the struggle. He said he left the apartment and later learned Patterson had been shot. He also told police Morrison had already left the apartment during the struggle. Defense attorney John Kerns argued Martin should dismiss the charges against Walker as well. Walker faces a trial Monday as the defendant in an unrelated shooting that occurred Dec. 5, 2010, at South Pointe Apartments, 2310 W. 26th St. — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

Douglas County Senior Services director resigns By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

Douglas County Senior Services announced Tuesday that John Glassman has resigned his position as executive director. He has served in the position for four years and has agreed to continue until a replacement is found. Glassman, 62, said he is pursuing other opportunities in the field of aging and plans to stay in the Lawrence community. “Some new avenues opened up for me where I

In the coming weeks, Lawrence’s Take Charge Challenge plans to reach out to more university students, something Manhattan has been more focused on and which partially explains its high community participation numbers. “We are planning to be at almost every major community event possible to get the community engaged,” Tran said. Both Tran and Horn think Lawrence can easily catch up to Manhattan. “We are down, but we aren’t out,” Tran said. No matter which city comes out ahead, the real winner is the homeowner who saves money. So far, the two towns have made energy efficiency upgrades that will save $13,000 in natural gas costs and $3,000 on electric bills. So, want to be a team player? Here’s how you can help Lawrence be the Take Charge Challenge champion.

John Glassman in June 2007 wanted to put my time and energy,” he said. “It’s time to take another step, so I did.” Emily Donaldson, Senior Services board chair, said a search committee has been formed and the position is being advertised. “We want to find someone Whole house retrofits ● Through the Kansas Energy Office’s Efficiency Kansas program, homeowners can sign up for an audit that details what improvement projects will save the most energy and money. These audits typically run between $500 and $600, but until the end of September, they can be done for $100. To sign up, go to efficiencykansas.com. ● Once the audits are completed, homeowners have the option of making those home improvements. To cover the cost, zero-percent interest loans are available through Westar Energy. The loans, which can be as much as $20,000, can be repaid through the monthly electric bill. Other energy efficiency measures ● The most significant measure in this category is the number of incandescent light bulbs that are switched to CFLs. As a step in the right direction, Take Charge Challenge will be handing out free CFLs at Saturday’s Earth Day Celebration in South Park. have given more than $160 million in services to the county, and 39.3 percent of the county had volunteered at some point. She said volunteers were a huge asset to any organization in town, and recognizing young volunteers soon was beneficial in the long run. “Most people who volunteer started early,” she said. “Passion is the No. 1 thing.”

with an understanding of the aging community, particularly in Douglas County,” she said. “We want someone who will be able to look to the future so that we can continue to provide services to everyone 60 and over.” Douglas County Senior Services, a nonprofit organization, has nine full-time staff members and an annual operating budget of $970,000. Its mission is to provide services that allow seniors to stay independent in their homes. Those services include meals, exercise classes, tax assistance and transportation.

Glassman said the job has been a great learning experience. For example, he never thought he would be working with the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and other businesses on ways to attract retirees to the community. “I think about growing older here myself, and in 15, 20 years, I am going to need services that have not been invented yet,” he said. “I want to be part of helping to develop them.”

● Anyone who has switched to CFL bulbs since Jan. 1 can earn points by registering the switches online at takechargekansas.org. The Take Charge Challenge leaders also will have sign-up sheets at community events for residents to record the changes. ● Small businesses also can participate by switching T12 bulbs to the more efficient T8 ones. ● Another way to compete in this category is to install a programmable thermostat through Westar Energy’s Watt Saver program. Customers can sign up to have a free, programmable thermostat installed in their home (it comes with a $300 value). Residents can control their thermostats from any computer connected to the Internet. In return, Westar can cycle on and off air conditioners and heat pumps during the hottest days of the year to lessen the energy loads during the periods of highest demand. So far, Lawrence has had 94 programmable thermostats installed compared with 17 in Manhattan.

Community participation ● Kansas University students should be on the lookout for Take Charge Challenge events around campus. Organizers plan to set up a booth at the KU Energy Conference from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. Thursday at the Oread hotel, 1200 Oread Ave. Afterward there will be a brown bag lunch for KU faculty and staff. ● On Saturday, Take Charge Challenge volunteers will be at the Earth Day Celebration in South Park. Stop by their booth and say hi. Visiting the booth is one way to help earn community participation points. ● Saturday afternoon, Westar is having a do-it-yourself home energy audit class that will teach homeowners how to assess the amount of energy being lost in a home and how to make energy-saving improvements. The class will be at the South Park Recreation Center in conjunction with the Earth Day Celebration.

For B ecker, who has become a court-appointed special advocate for children since retiring as a school teacher, the payoff from volunteering is worth the hundreds of hours she’s put in. “You feel a part of your community,” she said. — Reporter Brenna Hawley can be reached at 832-7217.

WHY DO I HEAR... BUT NOT UNDERSTAND? Study by Cambridge University in England Reveals Key Answer Until recently, there was no practical way to identify dead regions of hearing cells in the ear. However, a new British-developed procedure using standard test equipment now allows for identification of dead hearing cell regions. The study suggests that the presence or absence of dead regions may have serious implications in the fitting of hearing aids. This research reveals that amplifying dead cells is a mistake which will result in poorer speech understanding in noise. A new type of digitally programmable microcircuit is now available using nanoScience technology that can be programmed to bypass the dead cells. As a result, the patient’s usable hearing cells receive amplification, thereby improving speech understanding in noise. “We are employing a

like method in our diagnostic sound booths using a sound field speech in noise procedure,” said Christina Pinkley, HIS of NuEar Hearing Center. “This test simulates hearing in a noisy crowd. We are able to de-

termine maximum speech understanding by frequency shaping this new hearing aid.” The results have been phenomenal. For the first time, a patient is able to actually realize the exact percentage of speech understanding im-

provement in noisy listening environments. These new products come in all shell sizes, including the smallest digital models. During its release, NuEar Hearing Center is offering this new frequency-shaping

hearing instrument on a 30-day satisfaction trial. Call the NuEar Hearing Center office for a no-obligation appointment.

BRIEFLY Panel backs center’s designation efforts KANSAS CITY, KAN. — A panel that had been skeptical of the Kansas University Cancer Center’s application for federal designation is now supporting the bid. The advisory panel says the center had made remarkable progress in the last year KANSAS in its efforts UNIVERSITY to be named a National Cancer Institute. Such a designation would make it one of the nation’s most prominent cancer centers. The cancer center plans to file its application in September. The advisory panel told KU Cancer Center director Roy Jensen in a letter last week that it supports the bid. The Kansas City Star reports that a year ago, the same panel suggested the university wait a year or two because it had not developed enough of the laboratory and patient research that the National Cancer Institute requires of applicants.

Thursday, the club will be having its monthly rave party, which typically attracts about 600 people. The cover charge is $5, and 50 percent of it will be donated to Just Food. “I figured it was a good night to give back to the community a little bit,” said Patrick Schilling, manager. “It’s the least we can do.” The party goes from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. in the Cave, which is inside the Oread hotel at 1200 Oread Ave. In February, Just Food leaders announced they needed to raise $100,000 for operating expenses because they lost a federal grant or they would have to close the pantry.

More charges filed in Walmart robbery Douglas County prosecutors have filed charges against two more Lawrence men in connection with a December armed robbery at Walmart, 3300 Iowa, bringing the total number of defendants in the case to six. Prosecutors filed one count each of conspiracy to commit robbery against Nathan Todd Moses, 30, of Lawrence, and Andrew Dean Schmutz, 21, of Lawrence, in connection with the Dec. 13, 2010, robMoses bery at Walmart’s money center. The men are accused of serving as lookouts during the robbery. Judge ProTem James George set Schmutz bond for both men at $5,000 on their own recognizance, and Schmutz and Moses were released from jail Tuesday after appearing in court. Prosecutors charged two women, Jadin M. Schmutz, 20, of Lawrence, and Billie Jean Jessup, 20, of Summerdale, Ala., with conspiracy to commit robbery for also allegedly serving as lookouts during the incident. In February, prosecutors charged two Lawrence men, Lonnie Scott Schaefer, 22, and William Oliver Paterson, 19, with several counts in connection with the armed robbery.

According to officials with Tulsa, Okla.-based Leake Auction Co., the car, which had about 87,000 miles on it, sold for $74,500. The car turned up in a garage at a Lawrence apartment complex and was sold as part of a lawsuit involving a $600,000 ruling by a Texas court against one-time Lawrence residents Rex and Gail Youngquist.

EDITORIALS

Back to work The Lawrence City Commission needs to ramp up its consideration of key city issues.

he new mayor’s been sworn in. We’ve heard a State of the City address from the previous mayor. And two new members have been seated on the Lawrence City Commission. So it’s time for city commissioners to get back to work. During the past couple of months, the City Commission hasn’t tackled many weighty issues. It’s not crystal clear why the City Commission agendas have contained few items of substance. Perhaps it was a reluctance on the part of the city to handle major issues during a time that many in Lawrence had hoped they’d be watching the Kansas University basketball team play in the NCAA tournament. But it’s also possible that the City Commission didn’t want to address any issues before last week’s city election. If that’s the case, it’s unacceptable. Unlike their counterparts in Washington, D.C., the work of elected officials in Lawrence should not grind to a halt before an election. Commissioners shouldn’t adopt an attitude of “let the next group of commissioners grapple with this one.” The residents of Lawrence expect and deserve better.

Key endorsement Various accomplishments in the last year have moved Kansas University closer to its goal of gaining designation as a comprehensive cancer center.

he Kansas University Cancer Center’s effort to be designated as a comprehensive cancer center appears to be on the fast track. An advisory panel assembled to review and evaluate KU’s progress toward seeking the designation from the National Cancer Institute gave a key endorsement this week after apparently being impressed by work completed in the last year. A year ago, the advisory group had suggested KU take another year or two to strengthen its application to the NCI. After a recent review of KU’s progress, however, the advisers noted the project’s “remarkable growth” in the last year and endorsed KU’s plan to submit its application to the NCI this fall. During the last year, the KU center attracted key funding commitments and hired some top researchers. The recently announced merger with the Kansas City Cancer Center also was a major boost. The fact that U.S. News and World Report last month named KU Hospital as the top hospital in the Kansas City metropolitan area also should help strengthen the cancer center effort. Being named an NCI comprehensive cancer center is a lofty goal. Although some may have wondered whether KU was shooting too high, the major strides taken in the last year seem to have put that goal well within KU’s reach.

Why the odds favor Obama re-election By Dick Polman The Philadelphia Inquirer

Hey, President Obama has formally announced his re-election bid! I’ve added the exclamation mark to help ratchet up the excitement. It has been a long and difficult slog since Inauguration Day, so I’m going to assume that the looming inevitability of another presidential campaign is about as welcome as the prospect of trace radioactive elements in your milk. Still, attention must be paid. If you’re not up for pondering Obama’s current victory odds, no problem, I’ll do it for you. Here are the seven easy-to-read factors: ● Incumbency. Care to guess how many Democratic presidents have been defeated for a second term in the last 120 years? A grand total of one. That fact alone has prompted Matthew Dowd, the Republican pollster for George W. Bush, to conclude that “the odds heavily favor President Obama.” Incumbents are tough to beat, and this one will be raising and spending roughly $1 billion. Meanwhile, the nonpartisan Pew Research Center poll reports that 47 percent of Americans favor Obama’s re-election, while 37 percent want someone from the other party; his numbers are virtually identical to Bush’s numbers in April 2003 (the same point in the election calendar) — and way better than Bill Clinton’s numbers in March 1995. Plus, Obama’s job-approval rating is higher than Ronald Reagan’s rating in April 1983. Bush, Clinton, and Reagan all won second terms. ● The economy. Obama-haters see him as a one-termer, a casualty of the Great Recession, in the mode of Jimmy Carter (the only defeated Democrat these last 120 years). But Carter’s economy in 1980 was considerably worse. The big measure that year was the socalled Misery Index — the jobless rate plus the inflation rate equaled 21.9 percent. Obama’s current Misery Index is a mere 10.9 percent, and economists expect it to shrink further. If voters (especially in the critical Rust Belt states) perceive that the economy is improving — and even GOPfriendly economists see the jobless rate dropping below 8 percent by Election Day — Obama is wellpoised to benefit. ● Foreign crises. In the immortal words of Donald Rumsfeld, this is the big “unknown unknown.” Perhaps Obama will screw up somewhere just as badly as Carter did when he ordered the ill-fated mission to rescue the American hostages in Iran. Vot-

ers remember that kind of visceral failure. Short of that, Obama has to keep a lid on the bad guys abroad and ideally ensure that we are capably fighting no more than several wars at one time. ● Rallying the troops. I’m referring here not to the troops abroad but to the Democratic troops at home. Obama needs to rekindle the ’08 grassroots energy; it may not be so Incumbents easy the second are tough to time beat, and this around. In his camone will be paign mesraising and sage to the spending base last roughly $1 week, he offered no billion.” soaring rhetoric about hope and change; instead, he said: “We’ve always known that lasting change wouldn’t come quickly or easily. It never does.” Given the hard realities of governing in polarized Washington, and Obama’s various capitulations (Guantanamo is still open, the GOP is winning on budget cuts), can he stoke fresh enthusiasm among the young, minorities, women, and white liberals — all of whom are needed to offset his ongoing weakness among whites in general? ● The Republicans. It speaks volumes about the sorry state of the GOP that reality TV star Donald Trump can fulminate about the phony birth-certificate issue and wind up, in a new national poll, tied for second place in the

“

2012 Republican trial heats. It speaks volumes that the top aspirant, Mitt Romney, garners support from only 20 percent of the party electorate. The GOP hasn’t been this leaderless since Wendell Willkie came out of nowhere to win the nomination in 1940. Plus, thanks to tea party and birther pressure, the eventual nominee may well be too conservative for the independent swing voters. Obama’s vulnerabilities notwithstanding, you can’t beat something with nothing. ● The sleeping giant. That’s the traditional nickname for the Hispanic electorate; for years we’ve tracked its inexorable growth, awaiting proof of its clout. The proof has arrived, courtesy of the new U.S. Census. On the presidential election map, Hispanic voters, by dint of their numbers, are increasingly crucial in such states as Ohio, New Jersey, Florida, Nevada, Virginia, North Carolina, Colorado, Iowa, Arizona, and Georgia. Obama, buoyed by landslide Hispanic support in 2008, won all those states except the last two. The Republican candidate, whoever it is, will need to trim Obama’s Hispanic margin, but given the GOP’s woeful track record with minorities, and its frequent anti-immigrant outbursts, I suspect the party will again fare poorly with America’s fastest-growing electorate. If I were counseling the Republicans, I’d suggest tapping Florida Sen. Marco Rubio for the vicepresidential slot (key state, ethnic bonding — a twofer!), but for some reason the GOP has not

called me lately for advice. ● Likability. Granted, an election is too important to be a personality contest. But don’t kid yourself, this stuff matters. People liked Reagan back in the day, even when they fundamentally disagreed with his take on issues. People like Obama today, regardless of the issues. All the polls say so; in an Associated Press survey last month, 84 percent of Americans said he was likable (a number so huge that it presumably includes some of the people who think he was born in Kenya or Indonesia). And Obama’s team is taking full advantage. The campaign announcement video features a North Carolina white guy who says: “I don’t agree with Obama on everything. But I respect him and I trust him.” That message is aimed straight at the independent swing voters who often weigh likability as much as the issues. Indeed, Dowd, the aforementioned Bush pollster, says the GOP needs a “new brand” candidate who can neutralize Obama’s charisma. Is Romney more likable? Is Tim Pawlenty? Trump and his hair? So, in the absence of the unforeseeable, we can probably expect Obama to prevail, perhaps eking it out by a margin akin to Bush’s squeaker in 2004 — the narrowest reelection win since 1916, and a likely template for the polarized politics of the 21st century. The result, whatever it is, will naturally solve nothing; we’ll all keep arguing. Yet somehow we’ll muddle through. We always do. — Dick Polman is a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

New rules

Broad blame

To the editor: Our elected officials in Washington are responsible for the poor economy. They don’t talk about what they are getting accomplished. They make excuses for things not getting done and blame the other party for their failures. They take no ownership. A committee is delegated to study the issue. They talk about cutting Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid but never talk about cutting their staff or office budget or announce that they will take a pay cut. There is no leadership. What needs to be done is set some new rules for Congress. Term limits are needed to keep our officials in touch with reality. Members of Congress should not be able to exclude themselves from legislation passed that affects us. Congressional salaries and pay increases should be set by voters of their represented state. Eliminate the special retirement program for members of Congress and fold it into the Social Security program. They should receive what the average middle-class American gets from Social Security. And presidential trips need to be reduced. Look up “cost of presidential trips" on the Internet. It will open you eyes. Members of Congress talk about how hard they work. Congress has had three vacations since the first of the year. How many vacations have you had? Success is measured by results, not effort. We should expect more from members of Congress — and pay less. All Congress is successful at is fighting along party lines. That is why we are at where we are today. Scott Henderson, Lawrence

To the editor: While Dolph Simons Jr. presents one possible narrative in his Saturday Column of April 9, “Budget showdown didn’t have to happen,” I believe two main arguments he offers to defend his premise can be refuted. First, Simons blames the Democrats. He explains that when they held both bodies of the Congress and the executive branch, they did nothing to constrain “government handouts” which he implied was the cause of the “gigantic, constantly growing debt.” We have had numerous instances in recent times where the same conditions existed for those in the Republican Party and nothing was done to control the debt and, in fact, the debt was increased. Maybe both parties are to blame. Second, Simons voiced concern about the nation’s budget crisis and its “welfare and fiscal health...” which he implied was being given low priority for political purposes. While it is a fact that our budget is not balanced, why are targeted cuts toward our most vulnerable citizens the only answer? Perhaps we have a revenue problem. We have given generous tax cuts to our most wealthy citizens and corporations without the concomitant promised increase in jobs and our economy. Maybe we should attempt another approach and raise taxes and end “government handouts” for these groups. Many of our large corporations paid no corporate tax and some of our wealthiest citizens pay less in tax than those less fortunate. As to political manipulation, it strains credulity to blame one party over another. I believe in that domain parity may

exist and, in fact, Republicans may be playing the better game. Bob Wittman, Lawrence

Pitts response To the editor: Leonard Pitts Jr. in his column of April 10, states that, “This nation took so much from the men and women it kidnapped.” “This nation” did not kidnap anyone. The kidnapping was done by slave traders who operated like pirates. I would also like to remind Mr. Pitts that the kidnapping could not have taken place without the help of local tribal chiefs. These tribal chiefs aided and abetted these “slavers” to satisfy their own greed. That some of the American colonies were complicit in its dealings is truthful, but to infer that it was state sponsored is not. American fought against American. Brother fought against brother. A bloody, horrific war was fought to end the atrocity of slavery. That was this nation’s penance and final legacy to slavery. If a bunch of Southern bigots want to parade around waving their stars and bars, proclaiming how they made the ultimate sacrifice against “northern aggression,” let them. We all know who and what they are. In my opinion, Mr. Pitts, you refuse to face the truth in the present day. Welfare enslaves our nation’s people of color and robs them of the will to achieve a better standard of living. It has destroyed the two-parent black family. Abortion slaughters the black youth of tomorrow at a rate exponential of other races. You can’t see the present because you are blinded by the past. Scott Burkhart, Lawrence

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for April 13, 1911: YEARS "Eudora is AGO enjoying the IN 1911 delightful sensation this week of a glimpse into a case of domestic incompatibility. The wife of Dr. Charles Payne, a prominent physician of Eudora, has mysteriously left home, presumably without taking the trouble to inform her husband of her destination. Eudora is buzzing with excitement over the affair. On Friday Mrs. Payne was driven to Lawrence by Mrs. Betta Krause and boarded Santa Fe passenger No. 1. She took only enough clothes to fill two grips and left her two children, both under ten years of age, in the Eudora home. Dr. Payne was in Kansas City that day and did not know of her absence until his return. The Paynes have lived in Eudora about four years. Mrs. Payne is a striking looking brunette with a dashing air. She originally lived in Oskaloosa." — Compiled by Sarah St. John

FREE STATE GIRLS 3, LAWRENCE HIGH 0

Kick-started Loneker’s goal is game changer for Firebirds

O-line coming together for KU By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

By Ben Ward Journal-World Sports Writer

Offensive chances were scarce to begin Tuesday’s girls soccer City Showdown, so Free State High’s Kylee Loneker decided to take a chance. As the Firebirds secured possession deep in the offensive third, the ball found Loneker smack in the center of the field. She paused — looking more like a field goal kicker than soccer player on the LHS football field — and rifled a high arcing shot toward the net from about 30-yards out. The shot, which Loneker said she’s practiced quite a bit, floated just above leaping Lawrence High goalie Megan Fleming’s outstretched fingertips and into the net, lifting the Firebirds to a 3-0 victory on Tuesday night at LHS. “When it went in, it was insane,” Loneker said. “It felt kind of like a game changer,” LHS senior Clare Payne said. “We weren’t expecting it at all.” It sure kick-started the Firebird offense, which was slowed in the first half by a strong defensive showing from the Lions. A few minutes after Loneker’s strike, Abbey Casady found Alexa Harmon-Thomas, who raced down the sideline and behind the defense, then snuck one past Fleming to put the Firebirds ahead, 2-0. And only a few minutes later, Kathryn Sarraf fed the ball to a streaking Harmon-Thomas, who had her shot blocked, only to have Sarraf boot in the loose ball. “You see a goal like that and it energizes everybody else,” FSHS coach Kelly Barah said. Barah had plenty of good things to say about the Lions (24) and f irst-year coach Joe Nemzer. “They really made us play a style of soccer that we’re not used to, in terms of playing congested,” Barah said. “Seeing those other goals come as a result of problem solving was good.” FSHS (4-1) had a handful of chances in the first half, but only mustered two shots on net as a result of the stingy defense,

With Brad Thorson and Sal Capra lost to graduation, the Kansas University football team will have to replace two offensive lineman who combined for 48 starts during the past two seasons. As daunting as that task may seem, it’s made easier by the return of two players who have combined to start nearly half that many during their KU careers. After missing large chunks of the 2010 season, O-lineman Jeff Spikes and Trevor MarA lot of us rongelli are have been back this spring.

The same five players — Spikes, Marrongelli, Tanner Hawkinson, Jeremiah Hatch and Duane Zlatnik — have run with the first team throughout spring practice, and KU coach Turner Gill said earlier this week that it looked like it would stay that way. “They’re pretty much where they are going to be,” Gill said. “Right now, I’ll say we’re pretty well set, but I’m not going to say it couldn’t change somewhere in the future.”

Free State tennis sweeps Lawrence By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

Ever since Free State High School opened in 1997, its boys tennis team has never lost the annual dual with Lawrence High. The streak continued on Tuesday. The Firebirds swept the Lions, 9-0, at the annual City Showdown dual at the Lawrence Tennis Center. “It was a really nice result for us to beat them as cleanly as we did there,” FSHS coach Oather Strawderman said. Strawderman’s girls tennis team also swept the Lions, so he ends the school year with an 180 record against the city rivals. And if the win against LHS was-

n’t enough, the wins will help Free State in Sunflower League and regional seeding. The sweep was a little in doubt late in the afternoon, when Lawrence freshman Thomas Irick stormed back from a 3-0 deficit to take a 4-3 lead against Free State junior Andrew Craig in the No. 1 singles match. Craig broke Irick’s serve in the next game and won the next four to earn the victory. Last season, Craig qualified for the state tournament in doubles with Dravid Joseph, who graduated. This season, Craig is focusing on singles. That transition from doubles to singles hasn’t been difficult for

UConn’s Walker declares for draft STORRS, CONN. (AP) — Connecticut’s Kemba Walker says the school’s decision to put his name and number on the wall of its basketball arena helped him decide it was time to head to the NBA. “I think from that point out it did, because it was like coach just kicked me out,” the junior AllAmerican said. “It says 2008 to 2011 (on the banner), so it was like he’s (saying), ‘Let’s get him out of here.”’ Walker announced Tuesday he will enter the June draft. He said he

COLUMBIA, MO. — For his first dinner out as the new Missouri basketball coach, Frank Haith took his family to Murry’s, which had an appealing choice on the menu. “The special that night was ’Spaghetti Haith,’ which was pretty unbelievable,” Haith said in his office Tuesday. “My wife said, ’You owe it to (them) to get the special.’ And so I did get the special.” That was a week ago — and still stands as the last moment of peace he had before becoming consumed in a whirlwind of sleeplessness, indiscriminate eating and travel all swirling toward one end. Recruiting. Recruiting the players he’s inheriting, who in his words lost their “father figure” when Mike Anderson left them for Arkansas; recruiting the fan base, which largely has been lukewarm at best about his hiring; recruiting assistant coaches, crucial to the foundation and perception of his program. And, most immediately to some, recruiting prospects for the future with the five-week spring signing period set to begin today. For all he’s expended, all indications on Tuesday were Haith would have no signings to announce today. While Haith feels urgency to get recruiting buzzing with three scholarships to give, he is determined not to act just to appease, either. Not that the impulse wouldn’t be understandable after the initial furor over his seven-year record at Miami, which included one NCAA Tournament appearance and a 43-69 ACC record. “I don’t feel like because of the criticism of the hire that I have to do something right away just to prove something to people,” he said. “I’m not going to operate like that. In due time that will take care of itself.” As for the moment, “I don’t want to just give out scholarships just to be giving them out just so I can say I got one done on the first day. Because then that’s usually one that ends up not working out and transferring.” Besides, he added, “We’ve got a team in terms of depth that can play next year, and so that’s something I have to really look at in terms of recruiting decisions.” Unless he can line up big men for immediate help, Haith said, he in some ways has to think in terms of the next two recruiting classes, because MU will lose six players after next season. “Maybe we want to look at transfer situations,” he said, noting players then would be with the program a year and know the system for the 2012-13 season. Since meeting with the players April 5 before his introductory news conference, Haith said he picks out a couple guys every night and “stays in touch.” “We need to build relationships where they understand what I’m all about,” he said. Taking care of himself can wait. “I’ve been in a lot of different cities,” he said. “I can’t even remember where I started, to be honest with you. “No one’s going to put more pressure on me than I put on myself,” he said, adding, “I think this is a gold mine, I really do.”

record 965 points, accounting for 45 percent of the Huskies’ offense. Walker on Tuesday thanked coach Jim Calhoun “for turning me into a man.” Calhoun had advised Walker to leave. “He’s ready to move on as a basketball player, both emotionally and physically,” Calhoun said. “He just completed the finest basketball season in the history of this university — in 111 years I believe it is. He’s done everything humanly possible in my opinion that he possibly can do.”

Bonds jury still hasn’t reached verdict SAN FRANCISCO — Jurors in the Barry Bonds case remained mostly out of sight on day 3 of their deliberations. They never entered Judge Susan Illston’s courtroom on the 19th floor of the Phillip Burton Federal Building, spending about six hours behind closed doors Tuesday without reaching a verdict. Except for a couple of quick breaks and a timeout for lunch, that was it. No questions for the judge. No readbacks of testimony. And no clues as to which way, if any, the eight women and four men who will decide the home-run king’s fate are leaning. With each passing hour today, speculation will mount as to whether the jury even will be able to reach a verdict on the four charges: three counts of making false statements to a grand jury in 2003 and one count of obstruction of justice. Only the dozen jurors really know what’s going on.

MLB MVP Hamilton to miss 6-8 weeks DETROIT — Texas slugger Josh Hamilton is expected to miss six to eight weeks after breaking his upper right arm on a headfirst dive into home plate Tuesday, a daring dash the AL MVP later called “stupid.” Hamilton tried to score from third on a foul popup near the Detroit dugout in the first inning. Third baseman Brandon Inge and catcher Victor Martinez both chased the ball, leaving the plate unprotected.

Dodgers place SS Furcal on DL SAN FRANCISCO — Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Rafael Furcal has been placed on the 15-day disabled list after he broke his left thumb while sliding into third base on a steal during a 6-1 win over the San Francisco Giants on Monday night. The Dodgers made the move Tuesday, when Furcal headed to Los Angeles to be examined by a hand specialist.

Attorneys and Hall of Fame defensive end Carl Eller met with U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan for about four hours.

They at all going on offense. outmatched us today.” The Lions didn’t get their first shot on net — a good rip by senior Marley Sutter — until nearly halfway into the second half. “They were playing their game while, we were playing to what they were playing,” Payne said. “We weren’t making runs, we weren’t passing. We were just kicking it to our forwards, trying to get them to shoot it, and it wasn’t working.” Loneker said the Firebirds made a few adjustments at the break, and to start the second half, the mood on the field was much different.

— LHS coach Joe Nemzer “I think it was calm down, play our game,” Loneker said. Whatever the mindset, it certainly worked. “The second half, we started off pretty well,” Nemzer said. “But again, you lose track of one of those girls and bad things happen. They outmatched us today.” FSHS will play host to Shawnee Mission South at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, while LHS will play host to Olathe Northwest at 7 p.m. on Thursday.

Buchner, Mallory Neet, Miranda Rohn and Annie Odrowski took second, also in a state-qualifying time. Also for the Lions, Rohn won the 200 IM and the 500 freestyle. Buchner took first in the 100 backstroke. Odrowski placed second in the 200 freestyle and 100 backstroke. Neet added a second-place finish in the 100 freestyle.

Getting that group established up front could be critical for Kansas. The Jayhawks have a plethora of talent at running back and Gill has made no secret of the fact that he’d like to base his offense around the ground game. Having such a veteran cast filling those roles can only help as far as junior defensive end Toben Opurum is concerned. “This is definitely one of the most experienced groups we have on the field right now,” Opurum said. “It’s a completely different offensive line than last year’s. They’re in better shape and they’re moving a lot better. I think overall they’re going to be a better offensive line than we had last year.”

Players on KU’s wish list include DeAndre Daniels, 6-8, 180, from IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla.; Jamari Traylor, 6-7, 210, also from IMG; and Trevor Lacey, 6-3, 190, from Butler High in Huntsville, Ala. Daniels, who is ranked No. 9 by Rivals.com, is scheduled to visit Duke this weekend. He also has KU, Texas and Kentucky on his list. Lacey told Rivals.com on Tuesday he will visit Alabama this weekend and likely KU the following weekend. He has a final list of KU, Alabama, Auburn, UConn and Kentucky. “My interest in Kansas is serious,” Lacey told Rivals. “Coach Self is a great coach, Kansas is a winning program and they’ve got playing time available for me. A few guys are graduating and the Morris twins are leaving early, so I could step in and play right away.” Lacey, Rivals.com’s No. 34rated player, averaged 31.4 points, eight rebounds, 3.1 steals and 2.6 assists per game last season. Traylor, who is unranked, will visit Oklahoma State this weekend, according to Zagsblog.com. Traylor, who has visited Indiana, also is planning on visiting KU with St. John’s, Memphis and Mississippi State in the mix.

but I can tell when he’s excited about something and I know he’s looking forward to signing with Kansas Wednesday,” Christian Life Center coach Carlos Wilson told Rivals.com. “He's been great for us and I know his teammates really like him. I've enjoyed coaching Ben and the guys have enjoyed having him around.” McLemore, who chose KU over Missouri, averaged 16 points and seven rebounds in six games at the Houston school. He started the year at Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Va., but was dismissed for violating undisclosed team rules. KU, which signed point guard Naadir Tharpe in November, has three remaining scholarships to give in the Class of 2011, four if Josh Selby declares for the NBA Draft. Previously a walk-on, Conner Teahan received a scholarship this year because one was available. He figures to receive one again his senior year with KU figuring to not fill all available slots. “We need to get at least one more commitment from a big and at least one more perime● ter commitment, too,” said Porter off the board: Otto Self. “We may sign more than that, too. It depends on how Porter, a 6-9, 200–pound forward from Scott County Centhings fall.”

Roberts hired at Florida: Former KU assistant coach Norm Roberts and former Arkansas head coach John Pelphrey on Tuesday were named assistant coaches on B i l ly D o n ova n’s F l o r i d a staff. Roberts was head coach at St. John’s for six seasons. “Being from New York, I’ve known Norm for a long time,’’ Donovan said. “He’s an outstanding coach, he’s a great recruiter, has high character and integrity and I’m thrilled to have him on our staff here at Florida.” ●

Softie at hear t: It was revealed at Monday’s KU basketball banquet that Self had his players cut down the nets at Allen Fieldhouse following a practice after KU’s regular-season ending victory at Missouri. The Jayhawks, who wrapped up the u n d i s p ute d t i t l e a t M U, obviously couldn’t cut down the nets in Columbia. Self, who felt his team hadn’t had a chance to celebrate much the past couple seasons, brought out a ladder and scissors in the fieldhouse. The ceremony was videotaped, parts of it shown at the banquet. — Assistant sports editor Gary Bedore can be reached at 832-7186.

him. He is undefeated against regional opponents. “He’s doing really, really, really well,” Strawderman said. LHS coach Chris Marshall wasn’t upset with Irick’s loss, mostly because it seemed that every shot he hit just missed the line. The misses came at the perfectly wrong time, too — a missed overhead slam at game point helped Craig tie the match at 4-4. “He’s playing the point right,” Marshall said. “It’s just a matter of getting a little better footwork and a little better prep, and those shots will be in. It’s tough when you start missing and you’re missing that close. It gets frustrating.” In No. 1 doubles, the Free State tandem of seniors Chris

against the Falcons. Shane Willoughby went 3-for-4 with a double. Matt Sutliffe added four RBIs and Troy Willoughby went 3-for-5 with a basesloaded triple. Jake Johnson earned the victory, giving up two earned runs in five innings and striking out five. Stoll said the victory was a great conf idence booster going into the River City Festival this weekend.

LAWRENCE HIGH FRESHMAN SINGLES PLAYER THOMAS IRICK RETURNS A SERVE against Free State junior Andrew Craig on Tuesday at Lawrence High School. Helt and Patrick Carttar took down Lawrence High seniors Connor Schmidt and Ilan Rosen, 8-3. Strawderman said the early success of the doubles teams helped the Firebirds build a strong foundation for the rest of the day.

For the Lions, the 0-3 start was ominous. “You start 0-3 in doubles and it kind of snowballed on us today, but hey, the weather was nice,” Marshall said. The Lions play again today at Olathe South. The Firebirds host a quadrangular Friday.

Spikes agreed, but not in a way that sounded as if he was knocking last year’s crew. In fact, when talking about this year’s group, he was more than happy to exclude himself from the equation. “The sky’s the limit,” Spikes said. “And I’m not saying that just because it’s our team. Not even including myself, if you just look at the experience we have and the athleticism and the strength. We’re constantly working on strength, constantly working on technique.” Spikes continued to hammer the final point. “You can’t lose with technique,” he added. “You can’t. As an offensive lineman, that’s the key to success. You could be the smallest guy going against the biggest, best guy, but if you have better technique than him, you’re gonna be successful. (Offensive line) Coach (J.B.) Grimes

emphasizes that every day. We work on it every single day.” While the ins and outs of the offensive line usually aren’t noticed outside of their own circle, the play of KU’s line already has caught some eyes this spring. “Most people don’t really respect what they do,” sophomore wide receiver Chris Omigie said. “I like to see the linemen going downfield and knocking a linebacker on their back. We’ve had some linemen that really get after it and I like to give props to them because not many people appreciate how difficult it is to play on the offensive line.” With seven practices remaining before the April 30 spring game (1 p.m., Memorial Stadium), the Jayhawks will return to the field today for spring practice No. 8.

Mariners 3, Blue Jays 2 SEATTLE — Rookie Michael Pineda dazzled in the first home start of his career, taking a shutout into the eighth inning for his first professional win, and Seattle beat Toronto. The 22-year-old, making just his second start, left the Blue Jays guessing all night. He was clocked as high as 99 mph on the stadium radar g u n , b ut a l s o wo rke d i n n a s ty o ff- s p e e d p i tc h e s , including a biting slider that twisted Travis Snider for his sixth strikeout to end the seventh. Ryan Langerhans hit a tworun homer in the third off Toronto starter Ricky Romero, who was otherwise brilliant. Romero (1-1) retired 14 straight at one point and pitched into the eighth.

Freshmen lead KU women’s golf team WACO, TEXAS — The Kansas University women’s golf team finished sixth at the Baylor Spring Invitational behind strong play from freshmen Meghan Potee and Thanuttra Boonraksasat on Tuesday. Potee was the top finisher for the Jayhawks, tying for 15th after firing a final-round 77 to finish with a 54-hole 228. Boonraksasat rebounded from a tough first day to finish five strokes back from Potee in a tie for 29th. The freshman shot a tournament-best 68 in the final round, the lowest by a freshman at KU and the second-best round in KU history. Senior Grace Thiry tied for 32nd with a 234. Junior Katy Nugent and senior Meghna Bal both tied for 42nd (236).

MINNESOTA 4, KANSAS CITY 3 (10)

Tejeda struggles out of bullpen MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — While Kansas City’s young relievers once again gave the Royals a chance to win. It was a veteran who couldn’t make a pitch when it was most needed. Danny Valencia hit a basesloaded single with one out in the 10th inning to lift the Minnesota Twins to a 4-3 victory over the Royals on Tuesday. While the Twins’ bullpen pitched four perfect innings, including the 10th by Dusty Hughes (1-0), reliever Robinson Tejeda struggled for the Royals. “So far this year he’s had the ability to make a big pitch when he’s needed to and he just couldn’t make it tonight,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. Tejeda (0-1) gave up a oneout single to Delmon Young and walked Michael Cuddyer. Then came Jason Kubel, who crushed a pitch to right-center where Jeff Francoeur nearly made a nifty running catch with his glove outstretched and his body bent awkwardly at the wall. Francoeur dropped it after crashing into the wall, though, giving Kubel a really long single and loading the bases for Valencia. Francoeur thought it was a home run off the bat. So did Tejeda. “For me I don’t care how far you have to go. Once it’s in my glove it’s in my glove,” Francoeur said. “That’s what was frustrating for me. I have to make that play once it’s in my glove.”

Royals starter Jeff Francis got his third straight no-decision, allowing three runs in seven innings and retiring 12 of his last 13 batters. Francis has a 2.61 ERA this season. “I thought Francis threw the ball really well again. We’re just not getting the help for him,” Yost said. “I thought he pitched great.” Rookie relievers Aaron Crow and Tim Collins were impressive. Crow worked a scoreless eighth and Collins got Joe Mauer to fly out with runners on first and third to end the ninth.

BIG 12 FOOTBALL

Iowa St. putting faith in young, dynamic RBs AMES, IOWA (AP) — In a scrimmage last week, Iowa State running back Shontrelle Johnson bounced outside for a run that initially appeared so hopeless even coach Paul Rhoads stopped watching. A jubilant roar from the offense brought Rhoads’ vision back to his speedy sophomore, who broke out of a tight scrum with a stiff-arm, squirmed away from a pair of open-field tackles and sped to the end zone. It was the kind of play that Rhoads, now in his third season at Iowa State, has wanted to see more of since he arrived in Ames. Though Iowa State is about as young as it can be at tailback, Rhoads is optimistic that the inexperienced quartet of Johnson, Duran Hollis, James White and Jeff Woody can provide the explosiveness that’s been lacking from the offense. “Very excited about our running back position,” Rhoads said Tuesday. “The position is very dynamic right now. Shontrelle, Duran Hollis, James White all have the ability to make a lot of people miss on one given play.” It’s still tough to handicap the race to replace departed star Alexander Robinson, who graduated after rushing for 946 yards and nine touchdowns for the Cyclones (5-7) in 2010. Heading into Saturday’s spring game, it appears that Johnson has distanced himself from the pack by the slightest of margins. The 5-foot-9, 180-pounder out of Deland, Fla., who chose the Cyclones over the likes of Florida and Georgia Tech, split backup duties with Woody a year ago. He averaged 6.2 yards on just 35 carries in his first season at Iowa State, putting up 102 yards in a win over Texas Tech and adding a 33-yard TD run to help beat Kansas. “That’s pretty much my game. Shifty, quick and being able to make guys miss,” Johnson said. That’s not Woody’s game at all. The sophomore from nearby Pleasant Hill, Iowa, is a bruiser at 6-feet and 232 pounds. Though Iowa State

About all anyone knows about 5-foot-9, 203-pound redshirt freshman Duran Hollis is that his nickname is “Duck,” though he’s athletic enough to have earned serious Division I interest in basketball as well. “James White has just got this blazing speed,” Woody said. “Duck is kind of a combination of just mix and match the skills from the other three. He’s got a good, balanced abil-

ity. The diversity of the group adds to its strength.” Iowa State also has a tight race going for the starting quarterback job, and Rhoads said that won’t be settled until fall. Jerome Tiller and juniorcollege transfer Steele Jantz are both considered athletic enough to handle the significant running duties Iowa State asks from its quarterbacks. Still, a solid running game could really help either quarterback get settled as a firstyear starter. The depth the Cyclones have at running back should give them plenty of options and teams can never have enough tailbacks. Johnson is hoping that he can make it tough for the coaching staff to keep him off the field. “The more I carry the ball the more I get a feel for the defense. That’s what kind of back I think I am,” Johnson said.

Nebraska’s Big Ten inclusion creates ‘meat-grinder’ division O M A H A , N E B . ( AP ) — The Fisher household figures to be a flash point for the new Nebraska-Iowa rivalry in the Big Ten. Sean Fisher will be a junior linebacker at Nebraska this fall. Cole Fisher will be a freshman defensive back at Iowa. Cathy Fisher of Omaha might want to invest in one of those half-Cornhusker, halfHawkeye jerseys for moms with split allegiances. “My parents make jokes about it pretty frequently,” Sean Fisher said Tuesday during the Big Ten Legends Division spring football teleconference. “Unfortunately, we both play defense, so I don’t think I’ll probably get the opportunity to tackle little brother, which would be fun, unless it’s on special teams. It’s all in good fun within the family.” Fun isn’t the word Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald uses when discussing the challenges for him and his Legends brethren. “It’s going to be a meatgrinder,” he said. “You have to find a way to win and move on.” The Cornhuskers, who leave the Big 12 officially on July 1, figure to have the toughest road to the first Big Ten championship game on Dec. 3. They play Ohio State, Michigan State, Northwestern and Iowa at home and Wisconsin, Minnesota, Penn State and Michigan on the road. Coach Bo Pelini said the Huskers haven’t worked on any Big Ten opponents in spring practice, preferring instead to focus on shoring up their own areas of concern.

Pelini played at Ohio State and understands Big Ten rivalries. The Huskers haven’t had a true rival since Oklahoma in the old Big Eight days. Having Iowa as a border rival fits the bill for Huskers fans hankering for a red-letter opponent. The feeling is mutual on the other side of the Missouri River. “I think the most requested team or opponent through the years has been Nebraska,” Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz said. “When you go to events, people ask, ‘Are you going to be picking them up in nonconference?’ Outside of playing Iowa State, that’s been the most asked question. You get out toward western Iowa, and they’re closer to Nebraska’s campus than ours.” ●

Making the rounds: Even though Nebraska will play Washington three times in one calendar year, the Huskers will see 24 different opponents in two seasons with their entry into the Big Ten. The Huskers’ schedule will let them know in a hurry where they stack up in their new league. “I definitely think it’s a way to measure yourself against some of the competition that has done such great things in terms of going to bowl games and having success,” Fisher said. ●

Hoke history lesson: Firstyear Michigan coach Brady Hoke takes over a team that lost six of its last eight games, the last three by a combined 137-49.

That isn’t acceptable in Ann Arbor. “We’re getting ready to play the 132nd year of football at Michigan in the 2011 season,” Hoke said. “When you have all that legacy, all the tradition that’s there, we’re going to be accountable to it. We’re going to play for the guys who have worn that winged helmet before and understand the expectations are high and should be high. For us, it’s something we need to uphold and embrace and be accountable to.” Offensive coordinator Al Borges is installing a pro-style system, and former Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Greg Mattison’s charge is to shore up the Big Ten’s worst defense. Defensive tackle Ryan Van Bergen said when he thinks of great defenses, he thinks of those Ravens units molded by Mattison. “When you come in with a reputation like that,” Van Bergen said, “everything the guy says is gold to you.” ●

It’s my turn: The wait is almost over for Iowa quarterback James Vandenberg. He’s in line to take over after backing up three-year starter Ricky Stanzi for two years. Two years ago, Vandenberg started at Ohio State and in a win over Minnesota that clinched an Orange Bowl berth. He saw limited action last season. “The thing that most impressed me was how James prepared last year,” Ferentz said. “All of us had total confidence if he had been called upon.”

Roundup

Trail Blazers 102, Grizzlies 89 PORTLAND , O RE . — LaMarcus Aldridge had 22 points and 11 rebounds and Portland locked up the sixth seed in the Western Conference with a victory over Memphis. The Blazers, who won their third straight, will have to wait until the regular season’s final games tonight to learn their opponent for the first round of the playoffs. Memphis, which played without starters Zach Randolph and Tony Allen, was still jockeying for seeding. The Grizzlies and New Orleans are wrestling between the final two spots with just one game to play apiece. The Grizzlies visit the Clippers while the Hornets are at Dallas tonight. Portland wraps up the regular season at Golden State. Apparently, Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins decided to rest Randolph and Allen, who were not in the starting lineup against the Blazers but were in uniform on the bench.

Lakers 102, Spurs 93 LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant scored 27 points and Los Angeles snapped its fivegame losing streak at a potentially high cost, losing center Andrew Bynum to a hyperextended right knee in a victory over San Antonio’s role players. The Lakers’ hopes for a third straight NBA title might have taken a significant blow when Bynum fell to the court after stepping on DeJuan Blair’s foot during the second period. The shot-blocking 7footer will have an MRI today, when the Lakers wrap up the regular season at Sacramento. Lamar Odom scored 23 points as the Lakers struggled to hold off the Spurs, who rested stars Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker with the Western Conference’s top seed already wrapped up. Gary Neal scored 16 points and Matt Bonner had 13 for the Spurs, whose four-game winning streak ended. Spurs coach Gregg Popovich didn’t worry about falling into a tie with surging Chicago (61-20) for the NBA’s best overall record, yet his junior varsity nearly knocked off the discombobulated Lakers, who couldn’t breathe easily until Bryant’s three-pointer put them up, 96-88, with 2:55 to play. Pau Gasol had 17 points and 17 rebounds for the Lakers (56-25), who will get the No. 2 seed in the West with a win at Sacramento or a loss by Dallas (56-25). The Lakers hadn’t won since April 1, falling apart after a sparkling 17-1 stretch. They still haven’t fixed the defensive execution issues that have plagued them this month — but if Bynum’s potential absence doesn’t get the champs’ attention, maybe it can’t be got.

Bulls 103, Knicks 90 NEW YORK — Derrick Rose might have already done enough to wrap up the MVP award. The race for the NBA’s best record will go to the final day. Rose and the Chicago Bulls stayed in the race for it, overwhelming the New York Knicks to start the second half and winning on Tuesday night for their eighth straight victory. Rose scored 26 points for the Bulls, who opened the third quarter with a 26-2 spurt over the first 7-plus minutes and improved to 6120. Luol Deng added 23 points and 10 rebounds, and Carlos Boozer had 14 points and 22 boards as Chicago outrebounded New York. 51-33. “We came out kind of soft,” Rose said. “Second half, Tibs (coach Tom Thibodeau) came in at halftime and talked to us and we changed things.” The Bulls host lowly New Jersey on tonight. Just in case he still needed to, Rose put on a show for the MVP voters watching the nationally televised game, shooting 10-of-19 and throwing down a few crowd-pleasing dunks as the Bulls ran away from the Knicks after losing the first two meetings. “Rose is amazing. His athletic ability is ridiculous. He’s come farther, quicker, faster than anyone expected,” Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni said. “He’s playing at a level that not many people play.” Carmelo Anthony scored 21 points for the Knicks who had their seven-game winning streak snapped. Locked into the No. 6 seed and a firstround matchup with Boston, New York rested Amar’e Stoudemire for the third straight game, though his sprained left ankle was well enough to play.

Kids 2 and up can have educational fun in the kitchen Q:

I want to have my 3year-old son start helping me cook, but I’m not sure where to start. Can you help?

Working together in the kitchen can be a satisfying experience for you and your child. The kitchen provides a perfect learning environment for children while providing a bonding experience for both of you. Cooking together can be a recipe for building relationships and learning important life skills. Cooking with kids takes time, effort and patience, and it can be very messy at times. The food may not look as attractive as when you do it yourself; however, the benefits make it well worth the effort. Kids learn some important lessons along the way, such as: ● Basic cooking skills, including cleanup ● Reading and math skills as they read recipes and measure ingredients ● Eating healthfully ● Self-confidence ● Self-care and personal responsibility

● Following directions and cooperation Learning is not the only benefit children receive while cooking with parents. Studies show that children also are less likely to abuse drugs in the future as a result of spending time with their parents while they are young. Most children enjoy helping in the kitchen if they are given the opportunity. Here are ways that children of different ages can help in the kitchen:

2-year-olds can: ● Wipe tabletops. ● Scrub and rinse fruits and vegetables. ● Wash and tear salad greens. ● Break cauliflower. ● Snap green beans. ● Play with utensils. ● Bring ingredients from one place to another. 3-year-olds can: ● Wrap potatoes in foil for baking. ● Knead and shape dough. ● Mix ingredients. ● Pour liquids (not hot liquids). ● Shake liquids in a cov-

ered container. ● Apply soft spreads. ● Put things in the trash. 4-year-olds can: ● Peel oranges or hardcooked eggs. ● Mash bananas or cooked beans with a fork. ● Cut with kid-safe scissors — i.e., parsley, green onions, dried fruit. ● Set the table. 5- to 6- year-olds can: ● Measure ingredients. ● Use an egg beater. ● Cut with a blunt knife. Let your child be creative. Set out three or four healthy foods and let him make a new snack or sandwich from them. Please be sure to use foods that your child can eat without choking.

Top that sirloin with some delicious guacamole Guacamole is so good, I firmly believe it is wasted on tortilla chips. So I decided to come up with a suitable platform on which it could truly shine. And since fatty foods — even healthy ones like avocados — have a delicious affinity for salty foods, I decided to play with steaks. What I came up with was a simple marinated sirloin — started on the stove and finished in the oven — topped with a spicy, creamy guacamole. If you’re a beef purist, you can skip the marinating of the steaks, but I found the vinaigrette added a wonderful zing to the meat that worked so well with the avocado. This recipe is incredibly versatile. It’s easily started ahead — the steak can be marinated overnight. And it can be served as a generous entree (as described in this recipe), or cut into thin strips across the grain and served on toasted baguette rounds and topped with the guacamole for a party.

Think outside the brown bag for great weekend sandwiches I

love a good sandwich, which drives Mr. Meat and Potatoes crazy, because he packs sandwiches every day for his lunch. To him, a sandwich is some sort of lunch meat or bologna, a slice of American cheese and a thick slather of Miracle Whip on white bread. Seriously, am I alone in this, or is Miracle Whip the devilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spread? I would rather lick my garage floor than eat Miracle Whip in or on anything. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to pull one over on old Mr. Meat and Potatoes. Last time I bought store-brand Whip and was quickly informed that it is not only sub-par, but that it was flat unacceptable. As if Miracle Whip could be made worse. I swear, he must not have been raised right, to think that stuff is edible. Anyway, I digress. On the weekends, I often like to dream up a good sandwich for a Saturday lunch. My sandwiches have nothing to do with Mr. Meat and Potatoesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; weekday sandwiches. I

â&#x20AC;&#x153;THE FLYING FORKâ&#x20AC;?

a blog by Megan Stuke mean, they are the caratand-a-half diamond earrings to a silver stud tongue piercing. Not that he has a pierced tongue. But for some reason Mr. Meat and Potatoes is less than thrilled with being served a sandwich on the weekend, even if it is the Heidi Klum of sandwiches. Still, I press on. I was thinking about the Subway Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki sandwich the other day. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of my little guilty pleasures. But there are things about it I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t love, and since we rarely eat out anyway, I decided to put together my own version right here in my kitchen. I usually have a

bag of frozen chicken thighs in the freezer (we like thighs better than breasts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; much more flavorful and less dry) so I got to rummaging around and pulled together what I really have to admit is an improvement on the fast food sandwich. Only, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing teriyaki about it. Oh well, I was just going for the general idea anyway â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a chicken sandwich with onion-y and Asian flavors. First, I sauteed some onions in butter, soy sauce, Sriracha, salt, pepper and minced garlic in a hot skillet until they were almost blackened. In the meantime, I whipped up a sauce for the chicken. I made two sandwiches, so I cut up two large chicken thigh pieces, which was more than enough meat to load up the buns. For the sauce, I stirred together 1/2 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 teaspoons Sriracha, 1 teaspoon dried ginger and a teaspoon of sesame oil. I added about

1/4 cup of water, for volume, and whisked it all together, then poured 2/3 of it over the chicken to quickly coat and marinate while the onions continued to cook. When the onions were done, I moved them to a bowl and set them aside and dropped the chicken into the pan. If you need a little more oil, go ahead and add it. I think I added a tiny bit to make the cooking easier. Just saute the chicken until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done, occasionally pouring on a little more sauce to create a nice glaze over each piece. Then spread some hoagie rolls with a good smear of butter and toast them under the broiler. You will be tempted to skip this step because you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any softened butter and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like to mess with the broiler because you have a tendency to burn things in there (oh, is that just me?) but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. The toasted bread is the key to any good sandwich, in my never-known-

Speedy turkey and sides, fresh off the press By J.M. Hirsch Associated Press Writer

Admittedly, I am totally late to the panini press party. But Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve totally fallen for mine. After purchasing one on a bit of a whim, then barely using it, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve suddenly discovered the many and often unexpected ways to use it to make my weeknight cooking faster, easy and less messy. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts, for example, cooked so quickly and so well, there was no time for them to dry out. Bacon crisped up perfectly in no time. French toast on the panini press totally rocked. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even get me started about the hash browns. So for this recipe, I decided to do the entire meal on the press â&#x20AC;&#x201D; meat and a veggie side. For the meat, I opted for turkey tenderloins sliced into thin medallions. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather do chicken, just get thinly sliced chicken breasts or slice regular breasts into cutlets. A quick Asian-style marinade effortlessly added tons of flavor and the medallions cooked in no time on the press. For the side, I went with sliced portobello mushrooms and asparagus, both of which have the heft to stand up to the high heat of the press.

McClatchy Newspapers

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rare that I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give a recipe that lists Brie as an ingredient a second look. When this soft, creamy cheese is at peak ripeness, it tastes rich and slightly tangy. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard just to have one bite or one spread of melted Brie on a baguette slice, but you really should. Brie can have a butterfat content of more than 45 percent, and some triple-cream Bries have a higher percentage. Often you will find Brie served with fruit or light crackers. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ripe, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soft but not totally spreadable. To soften it more, you can serve it en croute. Take a wheel of Brie, wrap it in a sheet of puff pastry and bake until golden brown. Once baked, the rich, creamy cheese oozes out when you slice into it. It makes for a grand appetizer that guests will love. Brie has a short shelf life because it ripens as it ages, so pay attention to the package â&#x20AC;&#x153;best byâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;use byâ&#x20AC;? date. This cheese ripens from the outer edges to the center, so you can determine if Brie is mature by lightly touching the center of the cheese to see if it is soft. It also should look a little plump. At major grocery stores, you will find Brie in small and large wheels or triangularshaped segments. Brie is in the soft-ripened cheese cate-

onions, and I sprinkled on a little shredded mozzarella (a slice of provolone might have been better, but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any), and then popped it back under the broiler for just a minute to melt and get everything nice and warm. Mr. Meat and Potatoes lapped his up and I think he came in the kitchen after to pick at the leftover pieces of chicken. The next time I make a hot sandwich for lunch heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll still be a little disappointed, but secretly I know he loves them. I mean, it canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be chicken fried steak at every meal, right? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Read more Flying Fork online at Lawrence.com.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Add the turkey rounds, turning to coat each. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a second medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, hoisin and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add the asparagus and mushrooms, then toss to coat evenly. Set aside until the meat is ready. Heat the oven to 200 degrees.

In todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recipe, the Brie makes up part of a sauce that just lightly coats the penne pasta. Crimini mushrooms and arugula also add interesting flavors to this quick pasta dish. Criminis â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a brown variety of the white mushroom â&#x20AC;&#x201D; have more of that hearty, earthy taste that I prefer. You can f ind criminis, sometimes called Italian mushrooms, at most g rocery stores. The sharp, peppery flavor of arugula gives this dish an unexpected edge. Arugula has soft, delicate notched leaves. It can be used with other salad greens, put on sandwiches or stirred into soups. You also can saute arugula as you would spinach and serve it as a bed of cooked greens with poultry, meats and fish. Arugula has a short shelflife and keeps, at best quality, about three to four days in the refrigerator. This recipe calls for 4 cups of arugula, but you can add more if you like because it cooks down. If you buy it in bunches, rinse well under cool water and trim the thick stem ends. This dish serves four, but you can cut it in half for two. The leftovers hold up nicely, at least a day or two.

to-be-humble opinion. While the bread toasted, I made a spread. While I detest Miracle Whip, I can stand mayonnaise, but only when it is doctored up with a lot of other delicious stuff â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eat it just plain. Ever.

Onto the toasted bread went the chicken, and I drizzled the reserved marinade over it. Then on went the

YOUR 2011 LAWRENCE CSA GUIDE Get a constant stream of locally grown foods into your home all season long By Sarah Henning sarah@lawrence.com

The hardest part of healthy eating isn’t the actual digestion — it’s getting those healthy ingredients into your house. If you don’t buy it, you won’t eat it. There’s a way you’ll get your healthy foods and help the local economy with one easy step: join a CSA. A CSA, or community supported agriculture, is a way to get locally grown produce at a good price while helping to ensure a local farmer’s

income. The way it works is that you sign up for a share of a local farm or group of farms. Through that share, you’re basically subscribing to receive fruits and vegetables produced during our prime growing season — roughly May through October — which you’ll get weekly in a pickup location. The farmer gets a guaranteed customer, and you get guaranteed fresh produce into your house at a price that’s generally cheaper than retail. Lawrence is a hotbed of CSAs, with ones both large and small. Some have multiple pickup days, and some have set foods per week. Some let you

pick out what you want, and some carry unusual items that you won’t normally find at the market or in the store (dewberries, anyone?). And, in addition to produce CSAs, there are also CSAs that provide customers with animal products, such as meat and eggs. So, pretty much, if you live in or around Lawrence, there’s a CSA for you. All you have to do is sign up, and those healthy foods will be on your kitchen counter and ready to eat in no time. — Staff writer Sarah Henning can be reached at 832-7187.

Spring Creek Farm The basics: This small, 21-person CSA is based near Baldwin City. It has two sizes of bags — full and two-thirds — and the average bag has five types of veggies plus herbs. The costs: $348.75 per season for the full bag, $236 per season for the two-thirds bag. Eggs are also available each week for an additional $4 per dozen. There are a limited amount of subscriptions available for people who want to trade labor for veggies. Pickups: Wednesday afternoons in Baldwin City and Gardner, Saturday at the Lawrence Farmers’ Market, Eighth and New Hampshire streets. Still spots available? Yes Something special: The farm uses organic and sustainable methods, and in a boon for those folks who like to plan, it sends an e-mail out to subscribers each week so they know exactly what to expect in their bags. Contact/more information: Send e-mail to springcreekcsa@yahoo.com or call (785) 633-5292.

The basics: Mellowfields offers a small CSA May through October, culling vegetables from its four urban plots around Lawrence. The costs: Lump sum or monthly. Email mellowfields@gmail.com for pricing. Pickups: Thursday evenings at the Cottin’s Farmers’ Market in Lawrence. Still spots available? No, but there is a waiting list. Something special: Mellowfields is a sustainably farmed CSA that specializes in heirloom varieties and even saves some of its own seed. Contact/more information: Go to www.mellowfields.com or send email to mellowfields@gmail.com.

Rolling Prairie Farmers Alliance The basics: This CSA offers two sizes of shares — a regular share (6 to 8 items) and a smaller “economy bag” (5 to 7 items). Produce featured includes choices of greens, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, raspberries and more from seven area farms. The costs: Deposit is $75 ($85 for new members), and bags are $17 per week for the regular size, $14 for the economy bag. Included in the cost is a copy of “The Rolling Prairie Cookbook” by Nancy O’Connor for first-time subscribers. Pickups: Monday (regular bag) at The Merc, 901 S. Iowa, in Lawrence, Wednesday in Kansas City (Overland Park and Roeland Park), Thursday (economy bag) at Local Burger, 714 Vt., in Lawrence. Still spots available? Yes Something special: Lawrence’s oldest CSA, this one’s been around since 1994 and serves more than 300 households per week during its season, which runs roughly between May and November. All the farms practice organic growing practices, though not all are certified by the USDA. Contact/more information: Go to www.rollingprairie.net.

CSA usage 101 Signed up for a CSA and have no idea how you’re going to use it all before it goes bad? Don’t worry, We’ll have weekly write-ups on Lawrence.com and Wellcommons.com with tips and recipes for your constant stream of veggies. The write-ups will begin as soon as the CSA bags start rolling in, but if you want to see how writer Sarah Henning finished up her bags each week last year, check out her archived “Bye-Bye Bounty” posts on Wellcommons.com.

To Celebrate Earth Day, April 22, The Merc will no longer offer plastic shopping bags

'Happy Endings’ gives nod to ‘Friends’ formula The 1990s revival continues with “Happy Endings” (8:30 p.m. and 9 p.m., ABC), an unabashed attempt to return sitcoms to the days of “Seinfeld” and “Friends.” “Endings” hails from executive producer Jamie Tarses, linked to “Friends,” “Wings” and other 1990s hits. As on “Friends,” the shenanigans begin with a runaway bride. Dave (Zachary Knighton) and Alex (Elisha Cuthbert, “24”) are ready to take their vows when a buff dude on Rollerblades careens down the aisle declaring his love for Alex. As soon as you can say, “I've already seen 'The Graduate,'” Alex bolts, leaving Dave, and their posse of friends, in the lurch. They're shocked that they'll have to choose sides in this uncivil war. Not to give too much away here, but Alex returns after a week or so, leaving the old gang to spend a lot of time cracking wise at diners and over brunch. Alex's sister, Jane (Eliza Coupe), and her husband, Brad (Damon Wayans Jr.), have bought into the suburban dream and want to start a family so much that they've committed to a harsh and a healthy diet. Penny (Casey Wilson) is facing the big 3-0 without a man and with about 20 pounds more than she'd like. She drags a handsome if slightly brittle boyfriend to her birthday party, only to have Max (Adam Pally), the gang's gay friend, point out that he's probably not playing on Penny's team. Max, too, has some extra weight and looks, say his friends, like Paul Rudd gone to seed. As much as “Endings” leans to “Friends,” it only serves to remind us how difficult it can be to establish four or five distinguishable characters on an ensemble comedy. Dave and Alex's friends are a witty, popsavvy bunch, even if they seem to have trouble ever branching out and making any other friends. This sense of clique-y claustrophobia is enhanced by the fact that we really don't know what these characters do to pay the rent. “Endings” has some funny dialogue, and it arrives in rapid-fire fashion. But every character pretty much sounds the same. Having spent all of their adult years together, these folks have begun to look, and even talk, alike. Bottom line: “Happy Endings” is not half as bad as I expected. And that makes it better than most of the sitcoms to emerge in 2011. ● “The Franchise: A Season with the San Francisco Giants” (8:30 p.m., Showtime) takes a documentary look at last year's world champions. ● “Witness: Disaster in Japan” (9 p.m., National Geographic) examines the misfortunes in the wake of the massive earthquake.

Tonight’s other highlights ● The eight remaining contestants choose songs made famous by movies on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox). ● Cameron takes his love of the stage a step too far on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC). Fred Willard stars on a second (9:30 p.m.) episode. ● On two episodes of “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” (NBC), one case leads to many others (8 p.m.), Benson bonds with a victim (9 p.m.). ● Alyssa Milano guest stars on “Breaking In” (8:30 p.m., Fox). ● New mothers vanish on “Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior” (9 p.m., CBS,). ● Violence interrupts Raylan and Winona on “Justified” (9 p.m., FX).

Answer: Yesterday’s

“

Dear Annie: I’m a 47-yearold father of four kids. My oldest, “Janet,” is 24 and lives on her own. I adopted Janet when she was 2. Her mother made it clear that Janet is to never know that she is not my biological child. Janet’s mother and I are now divorced, and I have moved on to a happier life. I have always treated Janet the same as my other kids. I co-signed for her car and covered when she missed payments. When she needed money, I was there for her. When she graduated from college, I forgave the $4,000 she owed me for her tuition. Janet’s mother never offered a dime to help. Unfortunately, Janet has inherited her mother’s tendency to drink and take advantage of people. She appreciates nothing I’ve done for her. I finally couldn’t take it anymore and stopped trying to help. That was 18 months ago, and we haven’t spoken since. This is causing problems with my other kids. They want me to forgive everything. But I need Janet to admit she is out of control. She hasn’t responded to any of my past letters, so why should I keep trying to make her see that she needs to grow up and stop hurting herself and her family? Janet still owes me more than $21,000 in school loans
