Getting a weight off her shoulders

KANSAS HOUSE

Bill creating 401(k) plan for state workers OK’d

By John Hanna Associated Press Writer

TOPEKA — Legislation to create a new 401(k)style pension plan for Kansas teachers and government workers and cut the future retirement benefits of those who won’t switch won firstround approval Wednesday in the state House.

The bill advancing on a voice vote is the most sweeping proposal for changes to the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System being considered by legislators this year. GOP leaders expect the House to pass it on another, final vote, probably Monday.

JERI HOLWICK, A SENIOR AT MCLOUTH HIGH SCHOOL, enjoys a different kind of sport: power lifting. She can squat 325 pounds and has won the state high school 3A power lifting, and hopes to win it again this year. BELOW, Holwick works out in the weight room. “Jeri is the only girl who will come in regardless of whether there’s another girl to lift with,” said Gary Freeman, Holwick’s weightlifting coach at school.

A Kansas University graduate plans to introduce the planet to the haunting and hallowed interior of the world’s great basketball arena, just in time for the nation’s biggest weekend for college hoops.

Next week, Google Earth will open the doors on its virtual Allen Fieldhouse, a 3D digital model detailing everything from the paint on James Naismith Court to the catwalks above and every seating section, scoreboard and championship banner in between.

All as Brian McClendon looks forward to watching his Kansas Jayhawks take the Reliant Stadium court in real life.

“We’ll have that on there if and when they make it to the Final Four,” said McClendon, cofounder of Google Earth and now vice president for Google Earth, Google Maps, engineering and product, who grew up in Lawrence.

If? “It’s when,” he corrected.

Jeri Holwick is one high school girl who says she likes her big legs.

Holwick, a 17-year-old senior at McLouth High School, is a state champion power lifter who can squat 325 pounds.

Those strong legs are doing some work.

This Saturday, she hopes to become a two-time state champion and break records at the state power lifting meet in Marion. She’s on pace to do just that; the state record for squat is 315 pounds.

Power lifting isn’t a sanctioned sport by the Kansas State High School Activities Association, but Holwick has been attending meets around the area all semester.

Her introduction to lifting came in eighth grade when summer lifting was just something to do after cheerleading practice with her older sister.

Her sophomore year, a pair of brothers at McLouth noticed Holwick and started coaching her, and Holwick fell in love with the sport.

“They gave me a sport that I will do till I’m old and wrinkly,” she said.

Now, Holwick lifts Monday through Thursday and is often the only girl in a weight room

filled with boys, many of whom can’t squat as many pounds as she can.

“It’s pretty cool to lift more than the guys,” she said. “I really like lifting with the football guys. They really want to push forward for their football season, so it kind of gives me a drive to do better and really motivates me.”

Gary Freeman, Holwick’s weightlifting coach at school, said most girls have no interest in heavy lifting.

“Jeri is the only girl who will come in regardless of whether there’s another girl to lift with,” he said. “She’ll come in with 35 guys in the weight room, and it will be just her and she will have no problems with it.”

He said the competition is friendly.

“Although she is a girl, it’s kind of a brotherhood,” he said.

“She is a part of it.”

Holwick’s practices include doing squats, cleans and bench press, as well as other auxiliary lifts to increase her strength.

When she feels she doesn’t do well enough, she’ll discipline herself by running suicides until she’s tired.

“It’s not OK for me to come in and slack off,” she said. “The days that I’m not shaking to unlock my car and stuff, I know Please see LIFTER, page 2A

U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts criticizes Obama, Clinton on Lawrence visit

U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts on Wednesday afternoon in Lawrence criticized President Barack Obama for not being more specific about U.S. goals in Libya days after the start of a international campaign to enforce a no-fly zone amid unrest there.

“It’s U.S. policy to have (Col. Moammar) Gadhafi step down, but we have no military contingencies to achieve that other than a protracted civil war, a blood bath?” said Roberts, R-Kan. “It doesn’t make sense.”

Roberts had just spoken to dozens of people during a Lawrence Chamber of Commerce Business After Hours event at the Journal-World’s News Center, 645 N.H.

The state’s senior senator said he believed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton likely knew more than Obama did about the situation and “evidently she called the shots on this.”

“I just would like to have a speech with a great deal of specifics and clarification on what our policy is from the president,” Roberts said.

“And I think we ought to pose the question to the Congress, and I think we ought to vote on it. I mean, we’re putting our people in uniform in harm’s way.”

Roberts also said Congress needed to take action on entitlements and the federal budget this year, as he held a card with two quotes about entitlement reform from 2009 and 2010 attributed to Obama.

“If you look at those quotes, we’re

just asking him to live up to those statements,” Roberts said. “Show us the way, Mr. President, and then we can have an honest discussion about it.”

Dolph Simons Jr., chairman of The World Company, which owns the Journal-World, presented Roberts, a Kansas State University alumnus, with a Kansas University cap, causing the audience, including KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little, to erupt in cheers and laughter.

“The chancellor knows that I cheer for KU when you’re not playing KState,” said Roberts, who also predicted KU’s men’s basketball team would win the national championship.

I didn’t work hard enough.”

Her hard work has paid dividends this season. She’s won all but one meet in the squat and overall lift. She set a meet record squatting 325 pounds in February in Horton, and at the same meet placed first overall for highest overall total lift of squat, cleans and bench press — 615 pounds.

“It’s a big deal when Jeri gets up there,” said Holwick’s father, Dan. “She gives 110 (percent) on everything.”

Although Holwick is involved in other activities, including volleyball and track, power lifting is what she always returns to. In a small school where many students are involved in many activities, she said lifting can provide relief from the stress.

“When I get mad, it makes it a lot better,” she said.

— McLouth High School senior and power lifter Jeri Holwick It’s also a conf idence booster. Holwick said before lifting, she lived in her older sister’s shadow and wasn’t eager to get out of it. She was involved in many of the same activities as her sister, but finally found a way to differentiate herself.

“She can outrun me, and I can outlift her,” she said.

Now Holwick’s confident in her own skin and has moved past her insecurities.

“It’s not just a sport for skinny people,” she said. “I love my sport, and if I have big legs as a consequence, that works for me.”

The House debate Wednesday on its plan came the same day the Senate approved its own but less ambitious plan on a 35-4 vote.

Lawmakers are attacking the forecast $7.7 billion gap between the projected longterm revenues for KPERS and the benefits promised for the next several decades to teachers, judges, police, firefighters and other government workers. The traditional KPERS plans guarantee benefits up front, based on an employee’s salary and years of experience, rather than having them determined by investment earnings.

Negotiators for the House and Senate are likely to draft the final version of the pension legislation. Both chambers’ plans increase the state’s annual contribution to KPERS, starting July 1, 2013.

The House bill would boost the contribution by $10 million, while the Senate measure includes a $23 million increase.

The Senate plan would require public employees to pay a larger percentage of their salaries into the pension system, but it also would give most a modest increase in their benefits in exchange.

The senators’ measure is in keeping with many state officials’ long-held views that Kansas law and past court decisions limit how far the state can go in imposing concessions on public employees.

The House bill goes against that conventional wisdom. It would require teachers and government workers hired after July 1, 2013, to join the new 401(k)-style plan. It would give other employees the option of joining, but if they didn’t, the state would change how it calculates their future benefits — lowering them by $3.7 billion over two decades, according to one state estimate.

But supporters of the bill said that after a decade, the pension system will be back in balance, so that the state’s yearly contributions and KPERS investment earnings will match the annual revenues needed to cover benefits going forward.

“I fear that we’ll have to share the burden across many of us,” said Rep. Steve Johnson, an Assaria Republican who serves on the House Pensions and Benef its Committee.

“There is not a painless solution to a painful problem.”

The House bill originally didn’t include provisions to create the new 401(k)-style plan, but members voted 7444 to add them.

“It makes it a comprehensive bill,” said Pensions and Benefits Committee Chairman Mitch Holmes, a St. John Republican.

McClendon said.

The 3D fieldhouse model goes live today. Just enter Google Earth, turn on the 3D layer and then “fly down and search for Allen Fieldhouse,” he said.

That McClendon dispatched a photographer and a “very experienced 3D modeler” to handle the fieldhouse job should come as no surprise. As a student at West Junior High School, he and friend Steve Dinneen each had “10 games for $10” ticket packages to attend KU home games. The streak continued through Lawrence High, where he graduated in 1982, and the pace picked up while

earning his electrical engineering degree at KU. He’s looking forward to updating the as-yet-unfinished fieldhouse interior soon after April 4, when the NCAA champion is determined in Houston.

“We like to model reality,” said McClendon, whose Google Earth team is using nearly 200 photos taken of the fieldhouse interior by Dinneen.

“Our goal is to match the real world as closely as possible. …

“If they win, we’ll certainly put a 2011 banner inside the fieldhouse.”

Jayhawks get a fan-filled farewell

KANSAS SENATE

Measure approved to deter late-term abortions

1 | AFGHANISTAN

Report: Afghan war should end now The war in Afghanistan has reached a stalemate and the best time to jump-start a political settlement with the Taliban is now, according to a report released Wednesday by a U.S. think tank.

The report, issued by the Century Foundation, said the U.S. and Afghanistan’s neighbors, especially Pakistan, must play key roles in any negotiations.

Demands that the Taliban sever ties with al-Qaida or that foreign troops exit the nation, for example, should be considered goals, not preconditions of talks, the 126-page report said. The group also proposed that a neutral party, perhaps the United Nations, be named to facilitate the process.

2 | TOKYO

Elevated radiation reported in tap water Workers loaded trucks with boxes of bottled water to distribute across the city today after residents cleared store shelves following warnings that Tokyo’s tap water had elevated radiation coming from Japan’s tsunami-damaged nuclear complex.

Anxiety over food and water supplies soared a day after city officials reported that radioactive iodine in the tap water was measured at levels considered unsafe for babies over the long term.

The panic in Japan’s largest city, home to around 13 million people, added to growing fears over the nation’s food supply as nuclear workers at the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant 140 miles to the north struggled to regain control of the facility.

The nuclear power plant has been leaking radiation since the tsunami engulfed its cooling systems, leading to explosions and fires in four of its six reactors. After setbacks and worrying black smoke forced an evacuation, workers were back to work today, said Hidehiko Nishiyama of the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency.

3 | BRUSSELS

London to host meeting on Libya U.S., European, and Arab and African officials have been invited to London next week for political talks about Libya, even as NATO remained deadlocked Wednesday over its role in enforcing a no-fly zone meant to protect Libyan civilians.

France and Britain, in announcing the London talks, appeared to be laying the groundwork for separating the international intervention into military and political sides. The military side could be managed by NATO, while the political side managed by a different group that would include Arab countries and be seen less as Western interventionism.

The U.N. Security Council authorized the no-fly zone to protect Libyan civilians after leader Moammar Gadhafi launched attacks against anti-government protesters who wanted him to leave after 42 years in power.

Douglas County EMT leaves legacy of public service STEVE SMITH, an engineer and emergency medical technician with LawrenceDouglas County Fire Medical for almost 20 years, died at age 50 on Monday.

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Whether Steve Smith was fighting fires in Lawrence or serving his three tours of military duty in the Middle East, he had one thing on his mind.

“He just felt like if he was doing something for somebody else that was beneficial not only to him but to the whole community,” said his father, Robert Smith, of Osage City, “that’s what he was trying to do.”

And family members, friends and colleagues said this week Smith leaves behind a legacy of public service.

“He was one of the most selfless people, most giving people I’ve ever known in my life,” said Karen Glotzbach, a fellow Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical engineer and paramedic.

Robert Steven “Smitty” Smith, 50, an engineer and emergency medical technician for nearly 20 years in Lawrence, died Monday at his Lecompton home from

natural causes, chief Mark Bradford said.

A visitation is scheduled for 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. today at Mustard Seed Church, 700 Wakarusa Drive, and funeral services will be at 1 p.m. Friday at the church. Honor guards from Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical and the U.S. Air Force will participate.

Smith was drawn first to the Air Force from 1981 to 1985, where he spent time in Japan as a radio intelligence analyst. He later enlisted in the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division and went to jump school in 1985 but broke his leg twice, retired from the

Army in 1988 and enlisted as an Air Force reservist.

He served in Desert Storm in 1991 and in United Arab Emirates from October 2001 to November 2002.

Smith took a break from his fire service from May 2009 to January 2010 and returned to Iraq, where he managed security at an Air Force base at Kirkuk. The Air Force posthumously promoted him to the highest enlisted rank of chief master sergeant.

“He knew exactly what freedom meant,” Bradford said. “We take it for granted. I think being deployed he knew what it was for

men and women to sacrifice their lives so we could have freedom as we know it.

And he didn’t take that lightly.”

Gary Smith said during his brother’s last deployment to Iraq, his brother worked 184 days without taking a day off, something he did often to give coworkers a chance to spend more time with their families.

In 2002, those acts of kindnesses could have cost Smith his life when, his father said, he volunteered to work Christmas Day. While fighting a fire that night in an apartment at 213 Hanover Place in Oread neighborhood, Smith fell to the basement in a hole that was burned in the floor. He held on to the hose and alternated between spraying himself down and fighting the flames.

His fellow firefighters were able to get a second breathing apparatus to him, and eventually they rescued him. He was hospitalized for smoke inhalation, but otherwise he was physically fine

and more worried about the firefighters who helped rescue him, Bradford said.

Gary Smith said his brother struggled with bad memories of the event but would still travel around and speak to fellow firefighters about the importance of proper training and how to act under pressure.

“He stressed these things to the people he cared about — ‘I have to be an example to them,’” Gary Smith said.

Aside from his times spent joking with and mentoring to younger firefighters, friends said Steve Smith’s commitment to public service helped him bounce back from tough experiences.

“That takes some courage to go back in, but he did come back,” said Mark Thomas, a fellow engineer who knew Smith for 20 years.

TOPEKA — The Kansas Senate approved a bill Wednesday restricting late-term abortions based on the presumption that a fetus feels pain after the 21st week of pregnancy.

With the 24-15 vote, Kansas follows Nebraska as the second state in the nation to use the fetal pain threshold as grounds for restricting abortion.

“It’s a landmark vote,” said Kathy Ostrowski, lobbyist for Kansans for Life. “We are the first in the pack. Other states are moving in this direction.”

October. The law has yet to face a court challenge, but antiabortion supporters say it creates another compelling reason for states to restrict abortions and invite further review by the U.S. Supreme Court.

“The court is waving us in,” Ostrowski said.

House members approved the bill earlier in the session and are expected to concur with a minor technical amendment to send the bill to Republican Gov. Sam Brownback to sign.

The legislation ties the restrictions to a legal presumption that a fetus can feel pain after the 21st week. The science behind that presumption is still in dispute, however.

Current state law imposes the same restrictions — with an additional mental health exception — but only when a doctor determines the fetus is viable or able to survive outside the womb.

The bill would take away a physician’s discretion to declare a fetus not viable and move ahead with a late-term abortion Please see ABORTION, page 5A

SOUND OFF

Q:

How many points have the Morris twins scored during their careers at KU and has there ever been a set of twins that scored more?

A:

Marcus (1,338 points) and Markieff (905) have combined to score 2,243 points for Kansas.

There are at least four sets of twins who have combined to score more points in NCAA Division I basketball games: 1. Chavis and Travis Holmes (VMI, Class of 2009), 3,668 points; 2. Damon and Ramon Williams (VMI, 1990), 3,252 points; 3. Horace (Clemson, 1987) and Harvey Grant (Oklahoma, 1988), 3,231 points; 4.

Dick and Tom Van Arsdale (Indiana, 1965), 2,492 points.

The twins will play anywhere from one to four more games this season and could play as many as 40 games next season, should they decide to return to school instead of leaving early for the NBA. If they play another 44 games, they would have to combine to average 32.4 points per game to break the record.

STATE • NATION

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Elizabeth Taylor, the violet-eyed film goddess whose sultry screen persona, stormy personal life and enduring fame and glamour made her one of the last of the classic movie stars and a template for the modern celebrity, died Wednesday at age 79.

She was surrounded by her four Taylor children when she died of congestive heart failure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where she had been hospitalized for about six weeks, said publicist Sally Morrison.

“My mother was an extraordinary woman who lived life to the fullest, with great passion, humor, and love,” her son, Michael Wilding, said in a statement.

“We know, quite simply,

that the world is a better place for Mom having lived in it.

Her legacy will never fade, her spirit will always be with us, and her love will live forever in our hearts.”

“We have just lost a Hollywood giant,” said Elton John, a longtime friend of Taylor.

“More importantly, we have lost an incredible human being.”

Taylor was the most blessed and cursed of actresses, the toughest and the most vulnerable. She had extraordinary grace, wealth and voluptuous beauty, and won three Academy Awards, including a special one for her humanitarian work. She was the most loyal of friends and a defender of gays in Hollywood when AIDS was new to the industry and beyond.

But she was afflicted by ill health, failed romances (eight marriages, seven husbands) and personal tragedy.

A private family funeral is planned later this week.

Abortion

jeopardizes the health of a woman and that lawmakers fail to recognize that not all families are healthy or functioning normally.

“While rare, an abortion that takes place after 22 weeks into a pregnancy is most often necessary because of a severe fetal indication or serious medical condition that endangers the life or health of the mother,” Brownlie said. “This bill is an attack on women and families facing wanted pregnancies that have gone terribly wrong.”

The Senate also passed a second bill adding restrictions to late-term abortions and requiring parental consent for minors to have abortions. The House also approved the bill earlier in the session.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

with no restrictions.

Sen. David Haley, a Kansas City Democrat, said the measures were “chauvinistic and patronizing” because men were telling women what to do with their bodies.

But Republican Sen. Ralph Ostmeyer of Grinnell said his wife, daughters and other women in his western Kansas district are urging him to stand up against abortion.

“Protect the unborn. That’s what it’s all about,” he said.

Peter Brownlie, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri, said the legislation

Majority shouldn’t always rule Seaver memory

EDITORIALS

PUBLIC FORUM

In denial State lawmakers who want to impose statewide salary reductions but exempt their own employees from those cuts need to rethink their strategy.

M

embers of the Kansas House Appropriations Committee who voted to exempt their own legislative employees from statewide salary cuts apparently are in denial.

First, their action indicates they don’t understand, or don’t care, that bosses all across the state value their state employees just as much as the legislators value theirs.

Second, they apparently are too dim to understand the public relations ramifications of imposing $19 million in salary cuts on other state employees while exempting their own staff members.

“That is the least we can do to show our support,” Rep. Sharon Schwartz, R-Washington, said of the legislative pay decision. “I don’t see how we can carry on our work without these people.”

Do the legislators who voted in favor of this proposal think that leaders in state agencies across the state aren’t also wondering how they can possibly continue to provide the same level of service with reduced funding that likely will result in reduced staffing levels? The legislators obviously expect all other state entities to tighten their belts and do more with less, but they are unwilling to take such steps in their own operations.

The committee members even approved budget increases for some of their support agencies, such as the Legislative Research Department, the Revisor of Statutes and the Division of Post Audit. Although some committee members pointed out the irony of increasing funding for agencies that work directly for legislators while cutting funding for other state salaries, a majority of members defended the cuts. For instance, they said, the Legislative Research Department needs to be able to hire more workers next year to help legislators with the redistricting process.

Again, if state agencies across the state are being required to tighten their belts, why shouldn’t the Legislature do the same?

The budget approved by the committee provides for 7.5 percent pay cuts for legislators, justices and judges, statewide elected officials, statutory agency heads and all other state employees with annual salaries above $100,000. Pay cuts for those making between $40,000 and $100,000 a year would be implemented on a sliding scale, and, thankfully, there would be no cuts for those earning less than $40,000.

If these cuts are justified for everyone else, why are they not justified for legislative staff?

What message are legislators sending by voting in favor of such cuts for everyone else, while holding their own employees harmless and actually allowing their own support agencies to hire more staff. If legislators are unwilling to share the pain of state salary cuts, they should think again about imposing those cuts on others.

We are gathered here today to look a gift horse in the mouth.

It seems a majority of the American people now favor allowing gay men and lesbians to wed. That majority, according to a Washington Post/ABC News survey released last week, is slender, just 51 percent. But even at that, it represents a significant increase from just five years ago, when only 36 percent of Americans approved.

Other polling organizations have reported similar trends, and for those who believe gay men and lesbians ought to be free to solemnize and formalize their relationships, that is very good news. It means they are — WE are — winning the argument. That is cause for celebration.

But lurking at the edge of celebration there is, for me, at least, a nagging, impatient vexation. That vexation is based in what is arguably an esoteric question: In extolling the fact that the majority now approves same-sex marriage, do we not also tacitly accept the notion that the majority has the right to judge?

Try to imagine for a moment the consternation upon some woman’s face if a story in the paper announced that “X” percentage of Americans now favors allowing women to work outside the home. Try to picture the brisk dialogue that would ensue if you informed some Jewish man that you now supported his right to practice his religion.

If you can appreciate why the woman or the Jew might feel insulted by this putative magnanimity, maybe you can understand the impulse to look this gift horse in the mouth. The news seems to man-

nation this would be if Lyndon Johnson, before signing the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or the Voting Rights Act of 1965, had first taken a poll of the American people.

We tend to regard America, proudly, as a nation where human rights are given. But that stance is actually at odds with the formulation famously propounded by one of the first Americans. Thomas Jefferson, after all, wrote that human rights are “unalienable” and that we are endowed with them from birth.

If you believe that, then you cannot buy into this notion of a nation where rights are magnanimously doled out to the minority on a timetable of the majority’s choosing. You and I cannot “give” rights. We can only acknowledge, respect and defend the rights human beings are born with.

That’s the pebble in the shoe, the popcorn hull between the teeth, that nags at the conscience when one reads polls tracking how many of us approve of other people’s lives and decisions. It’s all well and good that 51 percent of us support the right of gay men and lesbians to tell it to the judge, but really, what hubris makes us think we have a right to say yea or nay in the first place?

One hopes that, as they grapple with the issue of gay marriage, our leaders will also grapple with that question. And f ind in it the courage to understand what Lyndon Johnson did: You don’t do the right thing because it’s popular.

You do it because it’s right.

date a two-tier response. On the one hand, you are grateful to see the majority’s attitudes moderating and hopeful that this will lead to the repeal of laws restricting marriage equality. On the other hand, there is that shadow of annoyance at the notion that human rights are something to be granted at the sufferance of the majority.

We have heard much in these last days of tea and outrage about “the will of the American people.” It is a term often pronounced with such holy reverence that you half expect it to come with its own soundtrack: a woman’s voice soaring in Latin against a wash of atmospheric music that swells behind her.

Yes, the will of the people matters a great deal. Indeed, in a democracy, few things are more deserving of — Leonard Pitts Jr., winner of the 2004 deference.

To the editor: I write to add my remembrance of a very dear friend, James Seaver. In 1974, I called Jim to introduce myself and to tell him I knew very little about opera but wanted to start an Opera Guild to support the Lyric Opera of Kansas City. Jim thought it was a great idea and from that first phone call, a friendship of 36 years began.

I accompanied Jim and his wonderful wife, Virginia, to many operas where Jim would school me in how to listen. He invited me to his home to listen to famous opera singers like Caruso and Callas. We began the opera guild together, and it was very successful.

Lawrence friends loved visiting members’ homes to prepare for the next Lyric Opera production. We proudly made a group contribution annually.

As our friendship grew, I learned that Jim had been a great tennis player at Stanford so the mentoring began again.

He taught me how to play doubles so that he could “save my partners” from chasing after my errant balls. We had wonderful times on the court because he was ever the gentleman encouraging me to improve.

I was in Lawrence a couple of weeks ago when a bit of serendipity occurred. I was attending a play at University Theatre in Murphy Hall, where I saw Virginia in the lobby. When she told me that Jim was in Swarthout Recital Hall, I ran in to give him a big hug and to tell him how much his friendship had always meant to me. I feel so lucky I had a chance to tell him. I will miss him very much.

What’s smart about Libya action?

Libya’s recently resigned ambassador to the United States, Ali Aujali, is optimistic about the outcome of the bombing of his country. He tells me he thinks dictator Moammar Gadhafi will be ousted, that free and fair elections will be held and that a new government will be pro-Western.

From his lips to Allah’s ears.

Given the history of the Middle East, such a notion requires greater faith than that possessed by the holiest of holy men.

After first displaying indecisiveness about Libya, President Obama touted his shotgun marriage to a “coalition” of nations attempting to dislodge Gadhafi. In Brasilia, Brazil, recently, the president used the word “coalition” five times. Was this an attempt to align himself with former President George W. Bush, who advanced a “coalition of the willing” against Saddam Hussein in Iraq?

President Obama seems to be channeling his predecessor. He signed an order closing Guantanamo prison as his first presidential act, but recently announced it will stay open and the military tribunals established by President Bush and supported by Congress will resume. And now, instead of Saddam Hussein, Obama is going after Gadhafi. Is this the same man who delivered a stem-winding, anti-Iraq war speech almost nine years ago in Chicago when he was a state senator?

That speech is worth revisiting.

State Sen. Obama said on Oct. 2, 2002, that he isn’t “opposed to all war,” only “dumb war, rash war.”

Substitute Gadhafi and Libya for Saddam Hussein and Iraq in this excerpt from that speech: “I suffer no illusions about (Moam-

mar Gadhafi). He is a brutal man.

A ruthless man. A man who butchers his own people to secure his own power. He has repeatedly defied UN resolutions. ... He’s a bad guy. The world and the (Libyan) people would be better off without him.”

Here is Obama in 2002, with his ultimate argument against the Iraq war. Again I substitute Libya for Iraq and Gadhafi for Hussein: “(Gadhafi) poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors ... the (Libyan) economy is in shambles ... the (Libyan) military (is) a fraction of its former strength and ... in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history.”

If Obama believed what he said in 2002 about Iraq and Saddam Hussein, doesn’t that seem a good rationale for not committing anymore treasure — which we have run

What is this president’s foreign policy? Does he have one other than pressuring Israel not to build more “settlements”? A “no-fly zone” will not depose Gadhafi and his sons. They must be overthrown, but that is not our announced objective. Does the president seriously believe a Gadhafi-free Libya will suddenly embrace Jeffersonian democracy?

If so, he is a bigger amateur on the world stage than some suspect.

President Obama says, “humanitarian reasons” are a motivating factor for using American and allied forces to topple Gadhafi.

What makes Gadhafi worthy of special humanitarian concerns when many other governments similarly oppress their people?

Gadhafi can’t live forever. The actuarial table will soon catch up with him. What’s the rush, especially if a power vacuum is created in Libya that terrorist groups are all too happy to fill, as they might do in Egypt and other countries in the region that are now experiencing revolutions? Former Ambassador Aujali strongly doubts that will happen, but no one can be certain.

If Iraq qualified as a “dumb war” in Obama’s mind back in 2002, what is smart about starting a third war against Moammar Gadhafi today? Is the United Nations, rather than Congress, now the authority for such action? That’s what Democrats asked when President Bush was in the White House. It remains a valid question under President Obama.

A proposed nuclear waste repository in Lyons was on hold. Gov. YEARS Robert Docking had AGO asked the joint conIN 1971 gressional committee on nuclear energy to postpone funding until tests were completed to prove to Kansans that the facility would be safe. "Kansans are concerned," wrote Docking, "and with justification, that if funds are approved by your committee to continue this project, then we will be unable to halt it if problems are encountered."

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 24, 1911: YEARS "Striking a rig AGO driven by J. M. IN 1911 Flory with sufficient force to cut loose the team from the vehicle and carry the buggy box across the street on the fender, a southbound New Jersey street car threw the three occupants of the buggy out on the brick pavement and perhaps seriously injured Martin Flory this afternoon. The team driven by J. M. Flory seemed to balk when the street car was almost upon the rig. The motorman was powerless to stop his heavy car, and it crashed into the light buggy at almost full speed.”

And when McMurtry and company slow things down with acoustic songs like "Mellinda" the added intimacy only serves to heighten the emotional connection to the song.

BRIEFLY Kansas mulls voter ID, citizenship plans TOPEKA — Kansas is all but certain to start requiring its voters to show photo identification at the polls next year, but a vote Wednesday in the state Senate raised questions about how other election fraud proposals from Secretary of State Kris Kobach will fare.

The Senate passed, 36-3, a bill that includes Kobach’s photo ID proposal.

The measure also includes his plan to require people registering to vote for the first time in Kansas to show election officials a birth certificate, passport or other proof of citizenship but delays the rule

until 2013, a year later than Kobach wanted.

The Senate’s version of the bill also omits proposals from Kobach to increase penalties for election crimes and to give the secretary of state’s office the authority to file and prosecute election fraud cases in state courts.

The House’s version of the bill, approved last month, follows what Kobach wants, and negotiators for the two chambers are expected to draft the final version.

Many Democrats have complained that the GOP secretary of state’s proposals would suppress voter turnout and decrease voter registration numbers.

Senate upholds axing Parole Board TOPEKA — Efforts to block Gov. Sam Brownback’s plans to abolish the Kansas Parole Board and transfer its duties to the Department of Corrections were narrowly defeated Wednesday in the Senate.

A resolution that would have stopped the reorganization failed 20-19, just one vote shy of the number needed to prevent the Republican governor from dismantling the threemember board. Unless another vote is taken, which is unlikely, the change takes effect July 1.

The board is responsible for granting prison inmates parole and deciding when a parole

violation warrants someone getting sent back to prison.

Brownback’s plan would give those responsibilities to senior-level Corrections Department officials, which the governor said would save the state about $500,000 in the next fiscal year.

Critics argue that the plan would create a potential conflict for prison officials who must weigh releasing inmates with concerns about prison overcrowding.

KANSAS MEN’S BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Woodland confident, grounded SAN ANTONIO — Now that there isn’t a hotter golfer on the planet, the demands on Gary Woodland’s time have increased exponentially.

Certainly, I wouldn’t have been offended had he not found the time to call me back Wednesday. After all, he has a tee time with Tiger Woods and Dustin Johnson today in the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill in Orlando, Fla., Woodland’s adopted hometown.

Woodland found the time, and a story he told me on the phone about his restaurant choice for a celebration dinner after his first tour victory, last Sunday in the Transitions Championship in Orlando, showed you can take the boy out of Kansas, but you can’t take the Kansas out of this Topeka boy.

After the victory, Woodland had just fulfilled his multiple obligations when agent Blake Smith asked him where he wanted to feast, not expecting the answer he received.

“Man, I want to go to McDonald’s,” Woodland told Smith. “I just want to get home and watch the KU game.”

And that’s what he did, catching the second half of the victory against Illinois. The dinner plans he made with stunning girlfriend Gabby Granado — they ordered a pizza and ate it in front of the TV — enabled them to watch Friday’s entire telecast of the Boston University game.

Woodland always has mastered that rare juggling act of abundant self-confidence that helps him aim to become the best in his field with a grounded personality, much like his favorite basketball coach, Bill Self.

Woodland’s opinion on Self’s team carries more weight than most. Out of high school, he turned down a golf scholarship from then-Kansas coach Ross Randall to play basketball at Div. II Washburn University.

After a year, he transferred to KU to pursue golf. He still loves talking hoops, specifically KU hoops.

“I think Brady Morningstar is almost the MVP of this team,” Woodland said. “Tyrel Reed has shown great leadership. The twins are two of the best players in the country. Tyshawn (Taylor) has been playing great of late, and coach Self is always the X factor.”

Woodland ranks third on the PGA Tour money list with more than $1.8 million in earnings this season and looks forward to being part of this weekend’s featured pairing.

“Dustin Johnson’s one of my best friends out here,” Woodland said. “We’ve traveled together and played practice rounds, and I’ve always been a fan of Tiger, so that’s going to be exciting.”

Woodland’s victory qualified him for the Masters. He makes his first trip to Augusta, Ga., where he said he will play practice rounds this coming Monday and Tuesday to formulate a game plan with his caddy, Jon Yarbrough. Many tour veterans will skip next week’s Houston Open. Not Woodland. The Final Four is in Houston that weekend.

“I’d love to see them play for a national championship,” Woodland said of the Jayhawks. “Everyone is saying they have an easy road. I don’t know about that. I don’t think there’s any such thing as an easy road.”

He ought to know. He twice in three years made it through grueling Q school and through serious shoulder surgery to land the shot he’s now using to set himself up for a great life.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD MARKIEFF MORRIS (21) CELEBRATES AFTER A DUNK against Illinois on Sunday in Tulsa, Okla. His twin brother Marcus might have received more attention early in his college career, but Markieff has steadily improved with a breakout campaign in his junior season.

Markieff Morris no longer just ‘the other twin’

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

SAN ANTONIO — A couple of weeks ago, Philadelphia’s Prep Charter High basketball coach, Dan Brinkley, saw one of his former big men do something he wasn’t sure was in the player’s best interest.

So, just as he did a handful of years ago back in Philly, Brinkley reached out to Kansas University standout junior Markieff Morris and called him on it.

“I saw him putting up signs on the bench the other day, and I

kind of sarcastically said, ‘Don’t flash gang signs on the bench,’” Brinkley said. “I know he’s never been a part of any of that, but I also know how sensitive some folks can be to that kind of thing, and I wanted him to protect his image.”

One problem. In order for Markieff to protect his image, he first had to create one.

It’s not that the 6-foot-10, 245pound big man was viewed as a trouble-maker. Just an unknown. In fact, the “gang signs” that Brinkley thought he saw offered a peek into

Markieff ’s mind and what was most important to him.

“It’s the F.O.E sign,” said Markieff, detailing each letter as he demonstrated the gesture he and his twin brother Marcus make to honor their credo of ‘Family Over Everything’ during starting lineups. “My coach thought I was throwing up gang signs, and I said, ‘When have you ever known me to be a part of a gang?’ It’s definitely F.O.E.” For two years, the man teammates described as a big teddy bear who could get work as a comedian,

was known by many outside of the KU program as “the other twin.”

Because of an opportunity at forward, Marcus, the more natural leader of the two, stepped into college stardom first while Markieff sat back and waited for a chance to join him.

“It didn’t really matter to me,” Markieff said of having to wait his turn. “Anything to motivate me.

That’s how it goes. I think it’s better to be that way, anyway. Take it step-by-step and take it as it comes.

Scoring a few runs hasn’t been much of an issue for Kansas University’s softball team this year.

The Jayhawks, who have been hitting at a record pace, needed just a few more runs on Wednesday. KU fell, 3-2 and 6-5, to the

No. 13 Tigers in a doubleheader at Arrocha Ballpark.

“They fought,” coach Megan Smith said. “They never gave up, and we proved that we belong.

We proved that we can compete with these types of teams. I’m just really proud of their effort.”

KU (26-5, 0-2 Big 12) fell behind, 2-0, in game one after

back-to-back homers by Megan Christopher and Abby Vock in the third inning. MU later tacked on a run in the fifth on a single and three walks by Allie Clark.

Meanwhile, MU (24-3, 2-0) ace Chelsea Thomas was cruising from the circle.

Royals bullpen falters in 8-7 loss to Cleveland GOODYEAR , A RIZ . (AP) — Carlos Santana and Shin-Soo Choo combined for five hits as the middle of Cleveland’s lineup looks ready to start the season.

Cleveland rookie Cord Phelps tripled in the winning run with none out in the ninth inning for an 8-7 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday.

Manager Manny Acta was more pleased with seeing Santana slide

headfirst for a triple, steal a base and get two hits. The catcher had surgery on his left knee in August.

“First thing I thought was, ‘Nice surgery,”’ Acta said. “I know Choo was impressed. He turned and said, ‘I’ve never seen a five-tool catcher.”

Santana played first base as part of Acta’s plan to keep the young slugger’s legs fresh with an occasional move there.

Anderson leaving MU for Arkansas after all FAYETTEVILLE, ARK. — Mike Anderson is returning to Arkansas to become the Razorbacks’ basketball coach.

The school confirmed the move Wednesday night.

Anderson leaves Missouri after five seasons to return to the school where he was an assistant to Nolan Richardson for 17 seasons. He replaces John Pelphrey, who was fired on March 13.

“Under Mike’s leadership, I am confident the Razorbacks will be successful in the future on and off the court,” Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long said in a statement. “The decision to hire Mike Anderson as head coach is based on my firm belief that he is the right person to lead L.G. Patterson/AP File Photo the Razorback program today and in MIKE ANDERSON WATCHthe years to come.” ES his Missouri team perAnderson’s form during the second departure is certain half against Central to anger Missouri Arkansas in this file photo. Anderson is fans who just six returning to Arkansas to days earlier were become the Razorbacks’ assured by the basketball coach.

Tigers’ coach that “I’m excited about what’s taking place at Missouri, and I plan on being at Missouri.” But they had also grown accustomed to previous flirtations — Anderson turned down $2 million offers and both the Georgia job in 2009 and Oregon one year later.

But the hard feelings felt by Missouri fans over Anderson’s departure were nowhere to be found inside Mizzou Arena at a news conference Wednesday night. Less than 2 hours after a team meeting with Anderson, athletic director Mike Alden repeatedly praised the coach for restoring the national success of a program that rose to prominence under longtime coach Norm Stewart but faltered under Anderson’s predecessor, Quin Snyder.

“We’ve been blessed that he has been with us for the past five years,” Alden said at a hastily arranged news conference. “We wish him nothing but the best.”

Anderson did not attend the news conference, but rising Missouri seniors Marcus Denmon, Kim English and Laurence Bowers also spoke fondly of their former coach. Anderson told them that the call home was too strong to resist, they said.

“I don’t feel coach Anderson would have left here for any place other than Arkansas,” Denmon said.

Anderson was 111-57 in five seasons at Missouri, including an appearance in the Elite Eight in 2009. The Tigers were 23-11 this season, losing to Cincinnati in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. He was 89-41 in four seasons at Alabama-Birmingham before that.

“The time I’ve had off from the game of this football has been a very long time,” he said.

“There’s no way I can make up that ground, the years I’ve been away from the game. But I do have a love for it.”

Sporting Kansas City coach Peter Vermes knows many people will view the tryout as a publicity stunt, either by Ochocinco or the team.

“I’ve said this before — I’ve always considered it from the very beginning to be a long shot. But I can tell you this, we bring trialists in all the time,” Vermes said. “To be frank, they’re always long shots. But we also bring guys in with much lesser physical tools than he has and they get trials with us as well. It’s very normal in our sport to do this. It’s just different because it’s a guy who’s coming from the NFL. “I did not want it to be a media thing for him. He said it wasn’t.”

COURTS Bonds’ friend says he saw syringe SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds looked at the witness stand with a blank expression as a childhood friend and former business partner described how baseball’s biggest star walked into the master bedroom at his spring training home along with trainer Greg Anderson, who had a syringe with a needle. A few minutes later, Bonds and Anderson walked out.

Steve Hoskins testified in federal court Wednesday that he never saw Anderson inject Bonds. The question for the jury will be whether Hoskins’ description, which the defense began to challenge later in the day, is a path toward convicting Bonds of lying when he told a grand jury seven years ago he never knowingly took steroids.

UFL Schottenheimer returns to coaching VIRGINIA BEACH, VA. — Longtime former NFL coach Marty Schottenheimer has been hired as head coach and general manager of the Virginia Destroyers of the UFL. Schottenheimer was introduced Wednesday as the first coach of the franchise. The Destroyers will begin play this season, the third year of existence for the United Football League.

A veteran of 30 years of NFL experience as a coach and player, Schottenheimer has a career coaching record of 205-139-1 (.596).

He coached Cleveland, Schottenheimer Kansas City, Washington and San Diego, taking a Chargers team that was 4-12 in 2003 to 12-4 and the division title in 2004.

Schottenheimer is the fourth prominent former NFL coach to take on the same job in the UFL, joining Jim Fassel (Las Vegas), Dennis Green (Sacramento) and Jerry Glanville (Hartford).

Confronting estranged brother requires patience

Dear Sister: These efforts don’t always turn out the way you think. Telling Tom how much hurt he has caused will make him defensive. Asking him for an explanation will make him angry. Had he

thought he was behaving poorly, he would have fixed it.

Instead, he has found a way to justify his actions.

If all you want to do is vent, go ahead and write Tom a letter, with the understanding that you are not likely to get a useful response. If you are looking to reconcile, you will need to be patient, tolerant and forgiving, with no guarantees. Decide what you hope to achieve by contacting your brother, and then do what will cause your mother the least amount of pain.

NBC may not be anywhere near the top, but that hasn’t stopped the network from keeping much of its Thursday-night schedule intact for fall 2011. “30 Rock” was renewed for next season some months ago. Last week, NBC gave the official pickup notice to “The Office,” “Community” and “Parks & Recreation.”

That leaves two new series, “Outsourced” and “Perfect Couples,” dangling.

It’s interesting to note that while “Perfect Couples” has a dismal chance of returning for season two, it does seem to be part of a trend. No sooner did NBC introduce “Perfect Couples,” about two married couples and a single friend adjusting to adulthood, Fox debuted “Traffic Light,” based on pretty much the same premise.

Neither is terribly good or terribly popular. Not to be outdone, ABC will launch “Happy Endings” next month. That one’s about how couples react when another tandem breaks up.

The renewal notice for “The Office” (8 p.m., NBC) makes official what was long expected: The show will go on without Steve Carell as Michael Scott. Signs of his exit abound in tonight’s episode, when Michael prepares to pop the big question to Holly (Amy Ryan). Ryan, who was rather remarkable in this season’s “In Treatment” on HBO, can also be seen in the new, highly acclaimed film comedy “Win Win.” Carell is not the only “Daily Show” veteran to make good. Ed Helms, who plays Andy Bernard on “The Office,” is also from that Comedy Central series. John Oliver has branched out from his role as a foreign correspondent on “The Daily Show” to play hapless professor Ian Duncan on “Community.” And tonight he gets his second special, “John Oliver’s New York Standup Show” (11 p.m., Comedy Central). ● The crude coming-of-age comedy “The Hard Times of RJ Berger” (10 p.m., MTV) returns for a second season. In my review of the first season, I called it, “Porno for ’tweens” .... “a variation HBO’s ‘Hung’ for an audience not yet out of middle school” and “one of the most depressing depictions of youth ever devised.” But that was before MTV’s by-the-numbers remake of “Skins.”

Dear Annie: I am one of four adult siblings in a family that has always had difficulty communicating. I haven’t spoken to my brother, “Tom,” in many years.

After getting married, Tom never bothered to invite our parents over, and he and his wife missed all the holiday celebrations. His wife is distant and didn’t try to establish a relationship with my parents, even though she is very close to her mother. Eventually, Tom stopped speaking to Mom and Dad altogether.

A few years ago, Dad passed away. I sent Tom an email and called to let him know. He was aggressive and rude on the phone and didn’t show up for the funeral. He never called our mother to console her.

Needless to say, she is still devastated that her only son could behave in such a way.

My parents were never able to confront my brother and ask why he was so mean to them. I have the same problem. I want Tom to know that he has caused a lot of hurt and that he needs to explain himself. How should I do it? — Angry Sister

Markieff CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

I knew it was just a matter of time. And I just think it’s our time right now.”

The numbers indicate that’s true. Together, the Morris twins tallied 31 points and 16 rebounds per game this season in leading KU to a 34-2 record and a spot in Friday’s Sweet 16 in San Antonio.

That Marcus, the Big 12 player of the year, followed up his breakout sophomore season with an even better showing in 2011 seemed expected.

In fact, when the player-ofthe-year voting took place, many voters seemed hell-bent on thinking it through before casting their vote, insisting that someone else in the conference was more deserving, more valuable.

They looked at the Texas roster and found a couple of candidates. Down the road, in Manhattan, there was another. But the one player who nearly matched Marcus’ numbers — 17.3 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 58 percent shooting — never got a look. Even though he averaged 13.4 points and 8.9 rebounds per game while shooting 62 percent and leading the Jayhawks in blocked shots (41), Markieff was tapped second-team allleague.

“Marcus and I laughed at the beginning of the year when people were saying that he could possibly be player of the year because both of us agreed that ’Kieff would have the better year,” Brinkley said.

“What he’s done this year was not even close to a surprise for those who know him.”

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD MARKIEFF MORRIS POSITIONS himself for a rebound between Oklahoma defenders C.J. Washington (5) and Steven Pledger (2) in this Feb. 26 photo from Norman, Okla.

Included in that group are Markieff ’s KU teammates, players who, by now, are as much a part of his family as Marcus or his mother, Angel.

They’re the ones who embraced the Morris twins’ F.O.E. mantra and made it the defining phrase of the 2010-11 season.

As he entered his junior year at KU, Markieff knew he would have to step up this year if his team was to be a contender. No problem. After all, it was Markieff who took the first steps to stardom back in Philly.

As high school sophomores, the Morris twins still were growing — growing into their bodies, growing into their games, growing into life and basketball. Markieff

found his footing more quickly and became a starter on Brinkley’s varsity squad beginning in 10th grade. Marcus came off the bench that year.

“Kieff was a beast,” Brinkley said. “Kieff carried us in a lot of ways in high school.”

His mother remembers that well.

“People here don’t know how he was in high school,” Angel said. “He dominated.

He was a phenomenal player.

And, this year, he’s playing like he played in high school.”

Added Marcus: “Growing up, I always thought Kieff was better. He was bigger, he could always shoot better. With me being a little more mobile, people always said, ‘Oh, he’s better because he can do more

because you can wear it out this time of year if you are not careful. Our guys will stay off their feet. We’ll make them available to you guys (media), other than that, you’ve got to relax.”

The Jayhawks are hoping for a four-night stay in a hotel for the second straight week.

“A little bit,” junior Marcus Morris said, asked if life on the road can be taxing at times. “I mean, just sleeping in those beds, my back kind of hurts now. I feel we have fun on these trips. I don’t feel pressure at all. We are cool, we just need to play how we are supposed to play.”

Of spending so much time in a hotel this time of year, junior guard Tyshawn Taylor said: “It’s not a vacation. I am not at the hotel to go out. I am there to play basketball. Being around my teammates and chillin’ at the hotel, that’s what we do. We’re used to it.”

Arkansas: “I like Mike. He’s been good for Mizzou, no question about that. He’s done a really good job,” Self said, indicating he hoped Anderson “does what’s best for he and his family.”

He said the Tigers would be able to “find a great quality candidate to replace him.”

just need to be good memories.

We need to play well. In order to do that, we need to improve from last weekend in Tulsa, even though we played fine (in beating Boston and Illinois).

“There’s another step we can take and get better. I’m excited about it. Our players will be fired up as well,” Self added.

Self and the Jayhawks left the team hotel for dinner downtown shortly after checking in the hotel Wednesday night.

“After that, we’ll be in lockdown mode,” Self said. “I will not let the guys get out (amid distractions with fans mobbing San Antonio’s famed Riverwalk).

“The further you go, the more attention you get,” Self ● added. “Our guys have to Self on Missouri coach Mike understand that and pace themselves, to be honest, Anderson leaving for

little bit easier for Marcus, but I think that kind of lifted Markieff’s game.”

As his notoriety has risen and people across the nation have gotten used to having to differentiate between which Morris twin they’re referencing when talking KU hoops, Markieff has clung to the laidback personality that has made him one of the most likable guys in the KU locker room. That’s off the court. On the court, at the urging of his coaches, Markieff finally has started to resemble the monster he was in high school.

“He’s so smart, in terms of basketball savvy, that he’ll just take the two points. He doesn’t care about the flash,” Brinkley said. “But coach (Bill) Self and coach (Danny) Manning and I just implored him to dunk the ball emphatically to show that that is part of his game, the nasty and the power and such. That’s the one change I’ve seen in him this year; you’re seeing that he’s attacking the rim much more, and he looks like a much bigger presence because of it.”

Thanks to the endless hours in the gym, and because Markieff had the patience to allow it to pay off, it’s no longer just those close to KU who see “the other twin” looks even more like his brother than they realized.

“I always thought Marcus definitely had a chance, and I thought Markieff had the tools, but I didn’t know,” said Boston University coach Patrick Chambers, who recruited the twins to Villanova. “Now, I can say they both have serious NBA potential.

Kansas has done an unbelievable job with Markieff. He’s become a big-time player.”

Recruiting: Otto Porter, a 68 senior forward from Scott County Central High in Sikeston, Mo., tells Rivals.com he plans to visit KU and Georgetown in the coming weeks. He had been considered a likely Missouri signee prior to Anderson’s decision to leave.

Porter is Rivals.com’s No. 97rated player. KU is expected to land another recruit who was strongly considering MU. He’s No. 17-rated Ben McLemore, a 6-5 senior from St. Louis, who will choose between KU and MU at the NeXt All-American Classic Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo on April 3 in suburban Chicago.

things.’ But that’s not really the truth. Kieff can do all the same things I can do, he just leaves them to me.”

Markieff ’s first chance to prove that came during his freshman season. He started seven games that year, but none after the Jayhawks opened Big 12 play. The next year, Markieff started the first two games before giving way to Marcus, who held down a spot in KU’s first five for the rest of the 2009-10 season.

“Kieff is the ultimate team guy, and I wasn’t surprised, when Marcus took that spot, that Kieff came off the bench happily,” Brinkley said. “I believe that it allowed him to become more comfortable, and it made him hungrier.”

Because of his size and

position, Markieff spent his first two seasons at KU overshadowed by two-time Big 12 defensive player of the year Cole Aldrich. He was on the floor a little more than 15 minutes per game and spent the rest of the time working tirelessly with his brother in the weight room and the gym, making sure that he would be ready when his shot finally came.

“He never cried about it,” Marcus said. “People say he’s the most improved player in the country, but I thought he was there all along. They just didn’t get the chance to see it, but now they do.”

Though the Morris twins go everywhere and do everything together, some might wonder if there were moments when Markieff complained about his role.

Angel doesn’t have to wonder.

“Nope. Never,” she said.

“Both of them would’ve come to me if he was down.”

Markieff said he learned a variety of tricks from Aldrich, whom he still talks to on a regular basis. A lot about defense.

A lot about basketball. A lot about composure and dominating with force while playing for fun. Because of it, he developed into the college player he is today at his own pace.

“Being behind Cole made me who I am,” Markieff said.

“I learned a lot, and I always just tried to take it one step at a time. Even though I don’t ever want to have anything given to me, I feel like I waited my time and I deserved it.”

Added KU senior Tyrel Reed, who similarly followed the path of paid dues to adoration and appreciation: “I think he’s just kind of taken everything in stride. It came a

After an error opened the door for the Tigers in the sixth, Clark surrendered a two-run homer that put MU on top again, 6-5, and the Jayhawks went without a peep in the sixth and seventh.
