KANSAS FORWARD MARCUS MORRIS (22) HANGS ON THE RIM after a dunk against Richmond in the first half. KU — the final remaining No. 1 seed — slammed the Spiders, 77-57, Friday in San Antonio to advance to the Elite Eight.

KU to meet VCU in Elite Eight
SAN ANTONIO — The edict from Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self to his players in preparation for Friday night’s Southwest regional semifinal game against Richmond was twofold: 1. No layups off backdoor cuts; 2. No three-pointers. Then Self and assistant coach Joe Dooley spent three days changing their players’ basketball brains, altering where they stood in relation to the player they were guarding. Basically, instead of playing between the ball and your man, players were told to play between their man and the basket. Had a quick guard adept at driving to the hoop and finishing, a Tyshawn Taylor-type player, driven against that defense, he might have scored 40 points because he would have blown by his defender and nobody would be there to help onto him. Instead of playing “down the line” in a position to help on drives to the hoop, the KU defenders blocked the cutters’ path to the hoop by staying in front of them. It frustrated the life out of the slower Spiders, who couldn’t compete and lost, 77-57, in the Alamodome, where Kansas feels right at home.
Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com
The Spiders didn’t have that Taylor type of guard, and they don’t take that approach to getting the ball inside. They get it there with back-door cuts, a door slammed shut by Kansas players who in three days of practice changed their minds so completely they allowed just one bucket on a back-door cut the entire game, and that was late, after the outcome had been decided and Tyrel Reed surrendered it. Three-pointers? Richmond shot 26, most of them rushed, even desperate. The Spiders made just four of them. That’s a .154 three-point percentage for a team that brought a .414 mark into the game. Other than Michigan, Kansas didn’t play a team all year that Please see KEEGAN, page 7A

COMING SUNDAY
“The first three innings I was on the corners and down, too,” Burgarner said. “At the end, I don’t know if it was fatigue, but I felt good. I think the biggest difference was I started missing over the middle and up, and the ball was flat. Sometimes you can do that and get outs, but they were putting really good swings and hitting the ball hard.” The 21-year-old lefty is 1-4 with a 7.17 earned-run average in seven spring training games. He’s allowed 29 hits in 21 1⁄ 3 innings, while striking out 25.
Alex Gordon led the Royals offense with three hits, including two doubles, and drove in four runs, raising his RBI total to 20. Kila Ka’aihue had two doubles and three RBIs, while Jeff Francoeur homered, his first since the first exhibition game. Melky Cabrera went 2-for-3 to raise his Cactus League-leading average to .490. The Giants had nine hits in the first three innings before the Royals had one. Royals right-hander Vin Mazzaro allowed three runs on nine hits in the first three innings.

SAN ANTONIO — Richmond coach Chris Mooney called three timeouts during the first 15 minutes Friday. None curbed the bleeding. Indeed, no tourniquet was going to work during this NCAA Southwest Regional. Kansas’ talent, size and depth were all that Mooney foreshadowed, and the Jayhawks cruised to a 77-57 victory, ending the Spiders’ tournament run and ninegame winning streak. But give the Spiders this: Trailing 35-11 late in the first half, they could have bailed. They could have turned the game into an epic thrashing. They didn’t. Kevin Anderson kept attacking, Kevin Smith still fought, and Justin Harper flashed his NBA potential. Of course, they weren’t nearly enough against an offense that shredded Richmond’s zone from start to finish. “Credit to them,” Anderson said. “They never let us back in the game.” Seventeen times a No. 12 seed had played a No. 1 in a regional semifinal. Seventeen times the big dog had prevailed, most recently last year, when Kentucky bested Cornell 62-45. The 18th time was not the charm for Richmond. Here’s how grim was it for Richmond (29-8). Midway through the first half, Kansas reserve Josh Selby hit corner three-pointers on consecutive possessions. Selby hadn’t made a three since the Big 12 quarterfinals and hadn’t made two in a game since Feb. 1. Here’s how deep and versatile Kansas (35-2) is. Later in the first half, 6-foot-9 reserve forward Thomas Robinson got caught in a defensive switch against Anderson, Richmond’s electric point guard. Anderson tried everything to shake Robinson off the dribble, but Robinson stuck. Frustrated, Anderson forced a drive and shot. Robinson rebounded, rifled an Unseld-like (Google it, kids) outlet pass to Brady Morningstar and raised his arms like a champion boxer as Morningstar converted a layup for a 29-9 lead. Robinson wasn’t the lone example of Kansas’ depth. Nine Jayhawks scored in the first half, seven had rebounds and six had assists. For the game, Kansas’ bench outscored Richmond’s, 31-8, with Robinson contributing 12 points and a game-high 14 rebounds. The Spiders weren’t at their best, 33.8percent shooting was their second-worst of the season because of Kansas. The biggest issue, Mooney said prior to tipoff, was: “Can we defend Kansas?” Understand, the Spiders aren’t defensive slouches. They rank 18th nationally in scoring defense, 11th in three-point percentage defense and 34th in shooting percentage D. But Kansas boasts arguably the college game’s most complete offense. The Jayhawks lead the nation in shooting percentage and assists and rank sixth in scoring. “Kansas is probably the most committed team I’ve seen at throwing the ball inside,” Mooney said. Twins Marcus and Markieff Morris average a combined 31.2 points and 15.7 rebounds. Mooney chose to zone the Jayhawks, and they made him pay, hitting 9-of-20 from beyond the arc. Harper had 22 points and nine boards, but his teammates were a combined 13-of47 (27.7 percent), no way to hang with an offensive power such as Kansas. In the program’s only other Sweet 16 appearance, in 1988, Richmond lost to topseeded Temple by 22 points. Friday you knew instantly the Spiders were in for a similar evening.
SWEENEY TO RETIRE AS A ROYAL Mike Sweeney wanted to end his career the same way he started it, as a member of the Kansas City Royals. So the former slugger signed a one-day minor-league contract with Kansas City, then officially retired Friday as a member of the Royals. “I’m walking away with no regrets,” Sweeney said. The 37-year-old Sweeney was a five-time All-Star with Kansas City. He said he would remain with the Royals in “some capacity” to work with minor leaguers.
Killer of UConn player gets 18 years VERNON, CONN. — The man who fatally stabbed University of Connecticut football player Jasper Howard during an on-campus fight in 2009 tearfully apologized to Howard’s family Friday as he was sentenced to 18 years in prison. John Lomax III, dressed in an orange prison jumpsuit with his hands and feet shackled, sobbed loudly as he told Howard’s family that he regretted what he did. “I know it hurts. I know it hurts,” Lomax said to Howard’s relatives and friends in a courtroom packed with more than 70 people. “I would never want this to happen to any family. Even though you may despise me, I don’t despise you. We’re all God’s children. I don’t hate y’all. I love y’all.” The 22-year-old Lomax, of Bloomfield, had been charged with murder, but pleaded no contest to first-degree manslaughter in January. He had faced up to 20 years in prison. Investigators believe the fight started over a comment a player made about a woman. Howard died of a single stab wound. Rockville Superior Court Judge Terence Sullivan noted that Lomax had no previous criminal record, had a job and supported his child. “You’re really not a bad person, but you’ve done a very, very bad thing,” Sullivan told Lomax. “You took the life of Jasper Howard ... and there was no reason for it. In taking his life, you took from him and his family all that he was ... and all the things he could have been.”
COLLEGE FOOTBALL Top recruit detained, not arrested COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina’s top football recruit, Jadeveon Clowney, was detained and handcuffed briefly by Columbia police early Friday morning because authorities say he fit the description of a burglar. Clowney was questioned and released.
Mich. St. cuts ties to booster club EAST LANSING, MICH. — Michigan State suspended all activities with a football booster club after learning the Michigan Lottery Commission is investigating the organization. The Downtown Coaches Club is a nonprofit organization that runs raffles at the university’s football games, among other activities. Athletic Director Mark Hollis said in a statement released Friday that he became aware several weeks ago that the club had some financial reporting issues.
Report: Tressel forwarded e-mails COLUMBUS, OHIO — Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel forwarded emails to Terrelle Pryor’s mentor that accused the star quarterback of selling memorabilia to a man under federal investigation, the Columbus Dispatch reported Friday. Citing unnamed sources, the newspaper reported that Tressel sent the information to Ted Sarniak, a businessman in Pryor’s hometown of Jeannette, Pa. Ohio State director of compliance Doug Archie told the paper that Sarniak and Pryor are longtime friends and that Sarniak was the player’s primary contact during recruiting. Tressel will sit out the first five games next season and was fined $250,000 by the university for failing to notify the school about emails he received last April involving two players and questionable activities involving the sale of memorabilia.

Royals destroy Giants, 15-3 SURPRISE, ARIZ. (AP) — Madison Burgarner is struggling to regain his World Series form. The Kansas City Royals, last in the American League Central last season, battered Burgarner for eight runs on 10 hits, six of them for extra-bases, in beating the Giants, 15-3, Friday night in spring training action. Last October in Game 4 of the World Series, Burgarner allowed three hits in eight scoreless innings in beating Texas. Friday, Burgarner retired nine of the first 10 batters he faced before yielding eight runs.

NFL Ex-Raider Robbins gets five years MIAMI — Former NFL lineman Barret Robbins has been sentenced to five years in Florida prison for a drug-related probation violation. A Miami-Dade County judge imposed the sentence Friday, more than a year after crack cocaine was found in Robbins’ car after a traffic stop near Dallas. Robbins was a Pro Bowl center for the Oakland Raiders, playing a total of nine seasons. He didn’t play in the 2003 Super Bowl after disappearing several days before the game and then showing up incoherent the night before. The Raiders released him in 2004 for steroid use.
Green Bay’s Jolly arrested again HOUSTON — Troubled Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Johnny Jolly has been arrested on another drug charge in Houston. Houston police spokesman Victor Senties said Jolly was pulled over about 12:45 a.m. Friday. Senties said officers discovered a bottle containing 600 grams of codeine under the passenger’s seat and another bottle with an unidentified substance in the driver’s side door. Jolly was suspended by the NFL without pay for all of last season for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy. The ban stemmed from a separate drug arrest.
Teams altering ticket plans The New York Giants and Jets, Carolina Panthers and Buffalo Bills made changes to their season-ticket plans this year to account for the lockout, with the Giants taking the biggest step by not requiring renewals until the labor stoppage ends. According to a survey of all 32 teams by the Associated Press, 17 teams are not changing ticket prices, nine are raising them, four are decreasing them — and two are both raising and decreasing, depending on seat location. San Francisco and Kansas City, for instance, are dropping some prices and raising others.
MLB Yankees, Brewers complete trade PHOENIX — The New York Yankees traded right-hander Sergio Mitre to the Milwaukee Brewers for outfielder Chris Dickerson on Friday, a deal that could benefit both banged-up teams. The Yankees also reached agreement on a minor league deal with Kevin Millwood. The 36-year-old righty was 4-16 with a 5.10 earned-run average last season with Baltimore, where his 3.26 runs per game of support was among the lowest in the majors.
NBA Hornets’ West done for season NEW ORLEANS — Hornets leading scorer David West has a torn left knee ligament and is out for the season, a development that dims New Orleans’ playoff prospects. West was injured Thursday night in the Hornets’ 121-117 overtime win at Utah. He was taken off in a wheelchair holding his head and grimacing in pain after going down hard after a dunk.

KU baseball toppled in extras J-W Staff Reports
COLLEGE STATION , T EXAS — Kansas University’s baseball team stayed with the No. 6 team in the country Friday night, but came up just short. The Jayhawks fell to Texas A&M, 2-1 in 10 innings, in front of a packed crowd of 4,765 fans at Olsen Field. Texas A&M pinch hitter Troy Stein hit the game-winning RBI single in the 10th inning. Kansas broke a three-game winning streak and fell to 1011 (2-2 Big 12). A&M won its fourth-straight game and improved to 17-5 (3-1 Big 12).
Friday marked KU’s third extra-inning loss this season. KU’s bats were quiet most of the night, but the Jayhawks tied the game in the ninth when pinch hitter Alex DeLeon drove a two-out, two-strike double to score Kevin Kuntz. Kansas starting pitcher T.J. Walz took a no decision despite pitching one of his best games. He went 7 2⁄ 3 innings and allowed one run, four hits and a walk. Walz struck out 10. The senior righty allowed just one hit after the third inning. KU will take on Texas A&M again at 2:05 p.m. today.

EAST REGIONAL
Kentucky upsets OSU NEWARK , N.J. (AP) — Brandon Knight did it again. Knight knocked down a jumper with five seconds remaining as the fourth-seeded Wildcats stunned topseeded Ohio State, 62-60, on Friday in the East regional semifinals. Senior center Josh Harrellson held his own against Ohio State super freshman Jared Sullinger, scoring 17 points and grabbing 10 rebounds as the Wildcats (28-8) advanced to play North Carolina on Sunday for a trip to the Final Four. Knight, who knocked down a game-winner in Kentucky’s second-round victory over Princeton, shrugged off another sluggish performance to drill the biggest shot of his career. Kentucky coach John Calipari opted not to call timeout after Ohio State’s John Diebler hit a three-pointer to tie the game at 60 with 21 seconds remaining, and Knight delivered a silky 15-foot jumper. Ohio State rushed down the floor, but William Buford’s three-pointer clanked off the rim and the rebound was tapped out of harm’s way. The Wildcats, who struggled to win close games earlier in the season, rushed onto the floor as the buzzer sounded. DeAndre Liggins, like Harrellson a leftover from Billy Gillispie’s days at Kentucky, hopped atop a table and pounded his chest as Knight

stood at halfcourt and soaked in the moment. The victory proved sweet vindication for the two holdovers, who were mostly spectators last season as Calipari revitalized the program behind a star-studded freshmen class led by John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins. Harrellson and Liggins took this year’s group of youngsters under their wing and delivered the kind of savvy veteran presence the Wildcats could have used last season, which ended with a loss to an experienced West Virginia squad in the East regional final. Liggins finished with 15 points for the Wildcats, who beat Ohio State for the first time in the NCAA Tournament behind a suffocating defense that limited the Buckeyes to 32 percent shooting. Sullinger led Ohio State (34-3) with 21 points and 16 rebounds, but the Buckeyes
fell in the regional semifinals for a second straight season. Sullinger said in the aftermath he expects to return for his sophomore year, if only to wash out the taste of a bitter end to an otherwise spectacular season. Ohio State rolled through the regular season but like the last two top overall seeds entering the NCAA Tournament, the Buckeyes are going home early. The win gives Kentucky a chance to avenge a loss to the Tar Heels earlier in the season. The Wildcats fell, 75-73, in Chapel Hill in December, a game in which they gave away several chances to win. Those days seem long gone. Kentucky has won nine straight and developed the kind of grit Calipari knew would come if he stayed patient with his freshmenladen roster. The Wildcats succeeded where so many teams have failed this season against the Buckeyes, dominating them on the defensive end. Kentucky swarmed the three-point line, limiting the sharpshooting Buckeyes — who’d made 28 three-pointers in easy victories over TexasSan Antonio and George Mason — to just 6 of 16 threepointers. Ohio State wasn’t any better inside the arc, shooting just 33 percent from the field as everyone besides Sullinger struggled to find room against
Kentucky’s myriad of defensive looks. “I think, honestly, some of the shots we missed we were making all year,” said Diebler, who finished with 16 points. “You have to give them credit, I thought they did a good job channeling shots with their length, but we’ve faced length all year. They just didn’t go in.” The first NCAA meeting between the two schools in 24 years had a Final Four feel. There were 19 lead changes, with no team leading by more than three points over the final 17 minutes. It’s a situation where the Wildcats had faltered early in the season. At one point they were 0-6 in games decided by five points or less. Those days seem like a long time ago. Kentucky made all the big plays when it mattered as Ohio State blinked in the face of the Wildcats’ unrelenting pressure.

EAST REGIONAL
Tar Heels dominate NEWARK , N.J. (AP) — Catch ’em if you can. After repeated early, deep def icits this postseason, North Carolina flipped the script Friday night, dismantling Marquette, 81-63, in an East Regional semifinal that was over before the half. North Carolina got off to its customary slow start, then seized control to move within a game of reaching the Final Four for the third time in four years. “I looked up at the clock and it was 10-8 their favor, and the next time I looked at the clock is when I went off at halftime and it was 40-15,” North Carolina coach Roy Williams said. “I knew we were doing very well to say the least.” Those 15 first-half points were the second-fewest allowed by North Carolina in a half in 144 NCAA Tournament games, and the Marquette’s 20 percent shooting from the field came on 6-of-30 shooting that was the second lowest by an opponent in an NCAA Tournament game. Just a year after missing the NCAA party, the kids from Chapel Hill are ready to steal the show. Tyler Zeller had 27 points and 15 rebounds, while John Henson added 14 points and 12 rebounds for the secondseeded Tar Heels in the rout at the Prudential Center. Harrison Barnes added 20 points and six rebounds. North Carolina (29-7) will face Kentucky on Sunday for a spot in Houston. “It means a great deal to all of us,” Zeller said. “We’ve been working for this all year and finally put ourselves in a situation and we have to go out and play Sunday.” The Tar Heels looked scary against Marquette (22-15). Friday’s dominating defensive performance was an eyeopener. “I still think we can play better,” Carolina guard Dexter Strickland said. “We haven’t played to our potential.” Marquette’s miserable game meant the Big East’s

rebounds. “It was uncharacteristic of us, and actually, it was pretty embarrassing.” Marquette had only two bad games down the stretch, and both came in this building. Three weeks ago, they were blown out by a sub .500 Seton Hall team in a game that seemingly put the Golden Eagles out of the NCAA Tournament. Marquette, however, played well enough in the Big East Conference tournament to make the show then knocked off Xavier and fourth-seeded Syracuse. Going against North Carolina was a mismatch. “We had zero assists at halftime, and we never do that,” said Jimmy Butler. “I had no idea what was going on. We had to be able to adjust and get some baskets, but we let them get away with doing whatever they wanted to do. The toughest team usually wins, and we def initely were not the tougher team.”

By Jesse Newell jnewell@ljworld.com
S AN A N T O N I O — Kansas University freshman Josh Selby didn’t think he ever could get as riled up as teammate Markieff Morris was during the team’s huddle right before KU’s game against Richmond on Friday. “Kieff was so pumped up, some drool was coming out of his face,” Selby said with a laugh. “So I’m like, ‘Kieff, man, you’ve got to watch that. That almost got on me.’” The joke ended up being on Selby a little bit later in the Jayhawks’ 77-57 victory over the Spiders. After Selby knocked down consecutive threepointers to put KU ahead 25-9, Richmond called timeout, and Markieff couldn’t help but notice something funny after Selby stopped celebrating. “He had a little spit on
his face,” Markieff said with a smile. “So I told him, ‘Hey man, come here, you’ve got spit on your face. Use my shirt. Wipe your spit off your face.’” Markieff, who had two fouls and knew he would be sitting on the bench for the remainder of the half, offered his jersey to Selby so he could clean up. Here’s Selby’s take: “I was so hyped up, he said drool was on my face. So, I don’t know, we were just both into the game. It was just a heat-of-the-moment thing.” Selby had plenty of reason to be excited Friday. The Baltimore native broke out of a 4-for-24 three-point shooting slump, making three of five threes against Richmond. “Josh was really good. He guarded well, too,” KU coach Bill Self said. “He’s really labored with his shot. It looks the same to
me, it just hasn’t been going in. I thought that was big for us tonight for him to get a couple down early.” When Selby f irst checked into Friday’s game, Markieff Morris told him to play confidently and told him that the team needed him. Selby said the words helped him, as he hit his first two shots. The 6-foot-2 freshman finished with nine points on 3-for-9 shooting — his highest point total since a 14-point effort against Texas Tech on Feb. 1, a span of 11 games. “He was in a slump for a while, but we still need him,” Markieff Morris said. “He’s still a big part of this team, and he’s still a great guard to have. “One game where we don’t have anything going, he’s going to be that guard we can go to. He’s going to put a spark into us.” PLAYERS ON THE KANSAS BENCH ERUPT after a three-pointer by the Jay

The incident was shown during the national telecast of the game. “I guess that’s what they do before games. They were dancing. Coach was trying to get us to hustle out,” Markieff Morris said. “We were trying to get out. They were trying to not let us out. A few words were exchanged, and then we ran out.” Self said the hallway runin was much ado about nothing. “There were two teams coming out at the same time,” he said. “It’s what happened yesterday when somebody reported some crap which is totally ridiculous and sends a wrong message. That got way too much play, a lot more than it should have.” He was referring to Marcus Morris saying, “You boys better be ready,” to a cart of Richmond players driving by on the way to the interview room Thursday at the Alamodome. Marcus Morris, who scored 13 points off 4-of-10 shooting with seven rebounds and three assists, agreed with his coach that Friday’s hallway run-in was overblown. “Everybody was laughing about it. The other team was laughing there. We had an exchange of words. It’s all fun and games,” Marcus said. The Jayhawks definitely let their actions speak vo l u m e s Fr i d ay in advancing to Sunday’s 1:20 p.m. Elite Eight contest against Virginia Commonwealth. “We jumped on them early,” Marcus Morris said. “We did a great job early.

We tried to control the game, speed them up and make them play our game.” Noted Markieff: “We tried to take their guard out of the game. Tyshawn did a great job. He changed the pace of the game.” KU senior Morningstar had seven points, while freshman Josh Selby hit two threes in a 21-2 run that gave KU its 31-9 lead. KU extended the run to 254 to take a 24-point lead (35-11) with 4:39 left in the half. Richmond sliced the gap to a workable 15 points (3722) with 1:27 left in the half following an 11-2 run. The Jayhawks led, 41-22, at halftime behind a stout
defensive effort that held Richmond to 29 percent shooting (9-for-31 overall and 3-for-14 from three). KU hit 50 percent of its first-half shots and made five of 10 threes. “I feel like a couple of us were open. Me and Tyrel (Reed, six points, 2-for-4 three-point shooting) hit some open shots, and when they started to fall, they did a good job penetrating and kicking it. My team gave me the ball, and I was knocking it down,” added Morningstar, who made four of seven threes. Morningstar was called for a technical for woofing at Richmond’s Kevin Smith after hitting a second-half three. The two moments earli-
er had words on KU’s defensive end. “I got ahead of myself. I’m not good enough to run my mouth after I make a shot,” Morningstar said. “That’s basically what it is. A mistake on my part. I apologize for that.” Self wasn’t amused. “They got into it on the other end. The officials talked to them. A 25-yearold should know officials will be looking at the next deal,” Self said. “That was not smart at all. I probably used a different term (in talking to Morningstar). But Brady played great.” Up by 19 at the break, the Jayhawks were never seriously threatened the second half. “The first half today ...
that was a pretty good basketball team playing,” Self said. “I didn’t like the way we finished the game. It wasn’t a giddy or happy locker room. I think we should enjoy it. We came here to win two games. We’re only halfway home. We know the next game will be the hardest we’ve played so far in the NCAA Tournament.” Markieff Morris thinks the Jayhawks will be raring to go. “I think we are hungry,” Markieff said. “I think we are scared to lose. A lot of people talk about the seeds we are playing and how we play to the level of our competition in the tournament, it’s lose or go home. We don’t want to go home.”

His face ablaze with intensity, the coach at times didn’t just scream defensive instruction, he demonstrated it, sliding his feet as he was challenging his players to do the same, only far quicker in sneakers than he did it in shiny shoes. Self said the skirmish between the Kansas and Richmond players in the hall a few minutes before tipoff was no big deal, but it might have been a big deal in a positive way, given how the Jayhawks started the game with such intensity. “It’s hard to say we wouldn’t have played like that if that
S A N A N T O N I O — In the moments following Richmond’s 77-57 loss to Kansas University in the Sweet 16 at the Alamodome on Friday night, a media-relations official informed Richmond senior Kevin Smith that he had to stick around the locker room until 8:52 p.m. Smith wasn’t happy. In addition to dealing with the emotional crash that came with the end of his college career, Smith was peppered with questions from reporters about the handful of confrontations between the Jayhawks and Spiders that started during pregame in the 12foot-wide tunnel, carried over to introductions and finally subsided late in the second half. For a game decided by 20 points, there were quite a few intense moments. During pregame, as the Spiders huddled in the tunnel, the Jayhawks attempted to run past them, and pushing and shoving ensued. Security guards jumped in to separate the teams and restore order. “It’s a man thing,” Smith said. “Would you let a man walk through you? I wouldn’t think you would. They thought they were playing some boys with that one. But that’s before the game, and that has nothing to do with the 40 minutes that were played.” Added Richmond forward Josh Duinker, who was seen shoving KU’s Thomas Robinson in retaliation during the off-the-court encounter: “It’s a narrow tunnel, and (Kansas) was right behind us coming through. People were just excited for the game, so things got kind of tangled up a bit, but nothing serious. It didn’t get under our skin at all. That’s not the way we do things.” The mini-fracas then spilled onto the court. First, Robinson and UR senior Dan Geriot brushed shoulders during warm-ups. Then, during introduction of the starting lineups, KU junior Markieff Morris and Smith whiffed on the customary handshake at mid-court. Smith rolled his eyes and laughed it off. Morris did not react. Later, Geriot and KU senior Mario Little also were tangled up and had to be separated. That one was more a product of NCAA-Tournament-style hustle than trash talk. In the second half, KU’s Brady Morningstar carried the torch in the trash-talk department. At one point, after Morningstar’s terrific defense forced Smith out of bounds, the KU senior popped the ball out of Smith’s hands, and words were exchanged. One official called the two together for a warning.

KANSAS FORWARD MARCUS MORRIS, TOP, and Richmond forward Justin Harper contest a possession. Seconds later, Morningstar drilled a three-pointer over Smith that put Kansas ahead, 63-38. He instantly began barking in Smith’s direction. Morningstar was hit with an immediate technical foul. Smith was hit with more frustration. “He made like a noise,” Smith said. “I don’t know. It was some kind of noise. He said it running away each time. You can put that in there if you want to.” Knowing that no more yapping would be tolerated, Morningstar let his eyes do the work after another threepointer a few minutes later. Instead of telling him about it, Morningstar simply glared at Smith as he ran back on defense. Smith did not react. “We didn’t worry about that,” Smith said. “If they want to talk, that’s them. We came here to do the things we needed to do to win the game, and they came here to do the things they needed to do, plus some. Good luck to ’em. If they find someone in the tournament they think they can talk to like that … but we weren’t gonna back down.” All week, the Spiders kept the focus on what they had done to get here and refused to let the star power of top-
seeded Kansas get in their heads. But Richmond looked rattled during the game’s opening minutes, and KU roared to a 35-11 lead befitting the top seed and second-ranked team in the country. Smith insisted that the Spiders’ poor start had more to do with his team missing shots and was not a product of any of the mix-ups. “We just couldn’t get out of the mud,” he said. “You’d have to look it up, but I can’t imagine when the last time we shot that poorly was. It’s tough.” Although the game got out of hand in spots, Richmond coach Chris Mooney said the minor altercations should not be the lasting impression from KU’s latest victory. “They’re a great team,” Mooney said. “I think it’s an iconic program, and (KU) coach (Bill) Self is one of the very best coaches in college basketball. It’s a first-class program. What gets in your head is the record and the statistics and just how good they are.” As the Richmond locker room cleared and the reality of the dream season coming to a close settled in, Smith was heard asking one final question. “Is it 8:52 yet?” he said.
didn’t happen,” Little said. “We’ve been watching TV. It’s kind of hard not to play like that when guys are saying we can’t play against a matchup, just talking about us like we weren’t 32-2 coming into the tournament. So we were all turned up and paid attention to detail. Everybody was tuned in. Everybody was focused, and it showed. We concentrated on locking up and had fun with it.” Might Kansas be in the midst of becoming as efficient defensively as offensively? “Our offense is so good,” Little said. “I don’t know if we can ever catch up to that. Defensively, we’re making strides. In this tournament, there could be a day we’re not making shots, so we have Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo to lock up our man and do the little things to get us over KU’S MARIO LITTLE (23) AND JOSH SELBY (32) wrestle for a possession with Richmond’s Derrick Williams. the hump.”

Arizona, UConn back among powers ANAHEIM, CALIF. (AP) — Lamont Jones spent his last spring break staring at his dorm room walls in Tucson, fuming over Arizona’s failure to make the NCAA Tournament after 25 straight trips. Kemba Walker had a few similarly sleepless nights in Storrs when Connecticut also missed the tournament last spring. “It happens to all great programs from time to time, but I just decided I wouldn’t go through that again,” Walker said.

ARIZONA’S DERRICK WILLIAMS (23) SHOWS his school spirit during the Wildcats’ upset of Duke on Thursday in Anaheim, Calif. Arizona will play UConn today. coach Sean Miller’s debut season. With a roster built around California talent with an East Coast pugnacity, Arizona won the regular-season Pac-10 title before taking apart defending national champion Duke in Thursday’s regional semifinals. “I didn’t expect the dramatic change to happen so fast,” said Kevin Parrom, a Bronx native and Arizona’s top bench scorer. “It feels good that we’re making our own mark in the history books.” Derrick Williams believes Arizona grew into its talent down the stretch, and nobody did it better than the high-flying forward from nearby La Mirada, Calif., himself, scoring a career-high 32 points during the Wildcats’ evisceration of Duke. Williams knew Arizona’s history when he decommitted from Southern California along with Jones and Solomon Hill to join the Wildcats two years ago — and he’s also talked to fans hungry for another title because their T-shirts from Arizona’s 1997 championship are getting a bit tight. “It was only a matter of time before we bought into what the coaches were selling us,” Williams said. “It’s a chain reaction, and you can believe in what they’re saying when
you’re at a winning program like ours.” The Huskies also stayed home last year, but it was just one disappointment in a few years of trouble for veteran coach Jim Calhoun, who dealt with punishment for recruiting violations and what the NCAA labeled “failing to create an atmosphere of compliance.” UConn scuffled through a .500 regular season in Big East play this winter before winning five games in five days to take the conference tourney, followed by this remarkable cross-country NCAA run. Not much in basketball can surprise the 68-year-old coach, but he’s pleasantly thrilled by Walker’s ability to take charge of two straight tournaments in dramatic style. Walker scored 36 points in UConn’s win over secondseeded San Diego State on Thursday, his seventh game with at least 24 points in the Huskies’ last nine outings. “It’s never unexpected to me. It’s joyous to me,” Calhoun said. “It’s always going to have a special place for me because of the group, because of the way we started the season. ... Nothing seems to get them down. The kids really do want to win and listen, and this group has done as good a job as any team I’ve had in a long, long time.”

Butler isn’t just Cinderella team NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Butler’s Brad Stevens likes being the young coach from the small school whose second straight run deep into the NCAA Tournament is capturing the imagination of the basketballloving public. More important to him, though, is how his FLORIDA players see VS. BUTLER it. “The cool What: Elite Eight part is — our guys — When: 3:20 p.m. it’s not today above their Where: New imaginaOrleans tion,” TV: CBS (5, 13, 205) Stevens said of upsetting one higher seed after another. “It’s just what they think that we have to do next.” After knocking off a pair of major-conference powers in their last two tournament games — top-seeded Pittsburgh of the Big East and
fourth-seeded Wisconsin of the Big Ten — Butler (26-9) will try to send home secondseed Florida (29-7) of the Southeastern Conference in today’s Southeast regional final. If Butler succeeds, the Bulldogs will be back in the Final Four for a second-straight season. Gators coach Billy Donovan made it clear he’s the last person who needs to be convinced of what a threat the feisty Bulldogs are to the bigmoney, big-school programs that entered the tournament as higher seeds and with higher expectations. And Donovan’s reasons have to do with more than just what Butler has done. “You’re starting to see the teams that maybe are nonBCS teams moving on and advancing in this tournament,” Donovan said, referring to George Mason’s Final Four appearance in 2006 and
Butler’s national title game appearance last year, not to mention the exploits of VCU and Richmond, who were playing in regional semifinal games on Friday night. “Butler has proven that they’re as good as any program in the country,” Donovan said. “You don’t get to a national championship game or the amount of sweet 16s they’ve gotten to by just being a Cinderella story. That doesn’t happen year after year.” One subplot to this matchup is Florida’s history of ending Butler’s season. None of the current regulars on either team were a part of that, but most remember when the Gators ousted Butler in the 2007 regional semifinals and most have been told about the Gators’ dramatic 6968 overtime victory over Butler in the first round in 2000 — a game that ended on Mike Miller’s running jumper as time expired.

LAWRENCE RESIDENT ROBERT WHITE BURNS old, dead, dry grass as he does some yard work during cool temperatures Friday.
TOPEKA — A former Lawrence church youth leader who was convicted for having a sexual relationship with an underage girl who was in the youth group will get a new trial under a ruling Friday by the Kansas Court of Appeals. Christopher Cormack will be tried again within the next three months, Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said. “It is our intent to retry the case,” Branson said. Cormack was convicted in 2008 of one count of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.
He was sentenced to 59 months in prison, but has been free on an appeal bond. The woman testified that she had a sexual relationship with Cormack, who was her youth ministry coordinator at Trinity Lutheran, for more than two years beginning in 1999 when she was 15 and he was 28. Under state law, aggravated indecent liberties with a child is engaging in “sexual intercourse with a child who is 14 or more years but less than 16 years of age.” Cormack admitted he had sexual intercourse with the girl on multiple occasions, but said all Please see RETRIAL, page 2B
Public can discuss changes to library plan at forum Parking garage a chief concern “ We recognize what we have right now is not a great solution.”
By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com
Make no mistake about it, the design for an $18 million expansion of the Lawrence Public Library is still being drawn in pencil. The city will host another public forum to discuss design issues and possible changes for the project at 7 p . m . M o n d ay a t t h e
— Jane Huesemann, a project manager for Gould Evans library, 707 Vt. “We’ve termed this as our listening tour,” said Steve Clark, one of the lead architects on the project with Lawrence-based Gould Evans. Architects have devel-
oped a conceptual floor plan for the main level of the library — it is the same plan that was presented during last year’s bond election — but the tweaking is now beginning. Jane Huesemann, a project manager for Gould Evans, said she’s already heard from several members of the public concerned about how a new parking garage would connect with the library. Currently, the plans call for people to walk through a narrow corridor to get to the Vermont Street side of the
library. Huesemann said designers will look for a better alternative. “We recognize what we have right now is not a great solution,” Huesemann said. But Clark said that simply adding more entrances to the building can become tricky because that could increase operating costs for the library by creating more security issues. The design of the adjacent parking garage also is creating several questions from the public. Specifically, residents want to know how tall
it will be, but Clark said that hasn’t yet been determined. It could be four stories tall when viewed from the Kentucky Street side, but Clark said he couldn’t commit to a height yet. That’s because if other site changes are made that affect the footprint of the garage, the structure will either grow or shrink in height. “But we recognize that everybody would like a shorter garage if possible,” Clark said.

Peck CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
The comment caused a national uproar. Peck said he was joking, and initially refused to apologize. But, under pressure from Republican leaders, he issued a twosentence apology, saying his statement was “regrettable.” Many organizations said Peck’s apology didn’t go far enough and that he should resign. Peck has refused, and House Republican leaders have said they have accepted Peck’s apology, calling Peck “a valuable member.” O’Neal has said Peck’s comments were a “personnel matter” and that he wouldn’t discuss it further. Presente.org, a national online advocacy group for Latinos, coordinated an
online petition drive calling for Peck’s resignation. The drive had more than 58,000 signers. Guadalupe Magdaleno of Wichita appeared Friday at a news conference on the Capitol steps. She said Peck’s comments could “put wrong ideas in sick minds.” The group of 10 people then delivered a box of petitions to the offices of Brownback and O’Neal. In Brownback’s office, Florentino Camacho of Kansas City, Kan., told one of Brownback’s staffers, “We want (Peck) fired. He is putting our lives, our kids’ lives, and our wives’ lives and our families in jeopardy,” said Camacho, a former state director for the League of United Latin American Citizens. “I have grandkids. I’m afraid a crazy person is going to hurt them.” No one was present in
O’Neal’s off ice when the group tried to deliver the petitions there. Myrna Orozco, an undocumented immigrant from Kansas City, Kan., said of Peck, “While he might have thought that this dehumanizing joke was funny, we do not believe that the genocide of children, mothers and fathers is funny.” Lalo Munoz, head of the Latino Information Network of Kansas, said, of Peck’s remark, “Those comments have no place in Kansas political discourse.” Democratic leaders in the Legislature have also called for Peck’s resignation. Peck has said he will not resign and has refused to talk further about the issue.

Woman pleads guilty in KU gunman hoax Staff reports
A 20-year-old woman pleaded guilty Friday morning to falsely reporting a crime in connection with an April 2010 incident that prompted police to lock down Kansas University’s largest residence hall as they searched for a reported gunman. The crime was later discovered to be a hoax. Douglas County prosecutors said District Judge Sally Pokorny sentenced Kori B. Williams to serve six months — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can of unsupervised probation be reached at 785-423-0668. for the misdemeanor conviction. Samuel L. Moore of Kansas City, Kan., had pleaded guilty to obstruction in the case last June and received a one-year probation sentence for lying to KU Public Safety officers. On April 30, police were investigating a reported domestic incident at McCollum Hall after a resident heard a male voice in the next room say, “Where’s my gun?”

Part of highway renamed to honor WWII hero TOPEKA (AP) — A task seen as long overdue was completed Friday with the signing of a bill honoring a Kansas sailor who was the first Medal of Honor recipient of World War II. Donald K. Ross was a machinist serving on the USS Nevada the morning of Dec. 7, 1941 , when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. During the course of the battle, Ross fought to keep the ship afloat and functioning despite repeatedly knocked unconscious. On Friday, Gov. Sam Brownback signed a bill designating a stretch of Kansas 18 as the Medal of Honor Recipient Donald K. Ross Memorial Highway. Brownback said he was impressed with the Ross story and felt it was a fitting tribute for Kansans to recognize. “He was at Pearl Harbor and Normandy. How many people are at the two, yet alone survive, and win the Medal of Honor,” Brownback said. The idea to honor Ross, who was a native of Beverly in Lincoln County, began with Kansans Joe Cassell and Jack Meili. The men knew Ross and considered him their hero growing up. They approached
Rep. Elaine Bowers, a Concordia Republican, about seeking a bill to honor Ross. “This guy was a hero. He was a farm boy. He probably learned to swim in a farm pond. And to read what he did,” Bowers said. Adm. Chester Nimitz, commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, presented Ross with the medal in April 1942. Ross continued to serve in the Navy during World War II and retired in July 1956 at the rank of captain. He died May 27, 1992, in Bremerton, Wash. In 1997, the Navy commissioned the guided-missile destroyer USS Donald K. Ross in his honor. Brownback was surprised it took so long to honor Ross in his home state.

City likely to OK new downtown street lights
Dean candidate to take part in forum
Lawrence city commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting are expected to approve a plan to replace 115 street lights along Massachusetts Street. The city plans to spend approximately $170,000 to replace aging lights with LED lights in the 800, 900 and 1000 blocks of Massachusetts Street. The funding is coming from an energy efficiency grant the city received through the federal stimulus. The new lights are expected to reduce energy consumption by 40 percent to 50 percent. The lights also will look slightly different than the current lights. The current lights use a square, plain pole, while the new lights will feature more of an old-time cast iron look. City crews have installed a few of the lights downtown in previous years when replacements were needed. The lights are expected to arrive in about six weeks. City crews will do the installation work. City commissioners meet at 6:35 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall.

Perry man indicted on fraud charges A federal grand jury has indicted a 66-year-old Perry man on charges of Social Security fraud and six counts of theft of government funds accusing him receiving disability payments when he was not eligible. The grand jury in Kansas City, Kan., indicted Jerome K. Flynn this week alleging the fraud occurred from January 1998 to March 2009 in Jefferson County, according to U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom’s office. The indictment alleges Flynn received $98,000 in Social Security Title II Disability payments for which he was not eligible because he returned to work at a “substantial level in June 1998” but did not report his work activity and earnings to the Social Security Administration. Grissom’s office said that if Flynn is convicted he faces a maximum penalty of five years in federal prison and a maximum $250,000 fine on the Social Security fraud charge and a maximum 10 years and $250,000 fine on each theft charge.

Special Olympian pushing for gold By Brenna Hawley

Powerful quake kills more than 70 A powerful earthquake that toppled homes in northeastern Myanmar has killed more than 70 people, and there were fears Friday the toll would mount as conditions in more remote areas became known. The Thursday night quake, measured at magnitude 6.8 by the U.S. Geological Survey, was centered just north of Tachileik town in Shan State near the Thai border. It was felt hundreds of miles away in the Thai capital, Bangkok, and the Vietnamese capital, Hanoi. Myanmar state radio announced Friday that 73 people had been killed and 111 injured. It said 390 houses, 14 Buddhist monasteries and nine government buildings were damaged. Earlier in the day, news broadcasts had put the death toll at 74. No explanation was given for the decrease. 2 | TORONTO
Opposition brings down government Canadian opposition parties brought down the Conservative government in a no confidence vote Friday, triggering an election that polls show the Conservatives will win. The opposition parties held Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s government in contempt of Parliament in a 156-145 vote for failing to disclose the full financial details of his tougher crime legislation, corporate tax cuts and plans to purchase stealth fighter jets. Opinion polls expect Harper’s Conservative Party to win re-election but not a majority, meaning he likely will continue to govern with a minority in Parliament, dependent on opposition votes to stay afloat. The opposition parties combined hold the majority of the seats in Parliament with 160, while the Conservatives have 143. But in the latest twist, there is a chance the leftof-center parties might join forces in a coalition if Harper wins another minority government on the expected election date of May 2. 3 | WASHINGTON, D.C.
1st melanoma drug to extend life cleared The Food and Drug Administration has approved a breakthrough cancer medication from Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. that researchers have heralded as the first drug shown to prolong the lives of patients with advanced skin cancer. The federal health agency approved the injectable drug, called Yervoy, for late-stage or metastatic melanoma. Melanoma is the deadliest type of skin cancer, but the FDA has only approved two other drugs for advanced melanoma. The newest of those drugs was cleared more than 13 years ago. Neither drug has been shown to significantly extend patient lives. Known chemically as ipilimumab, the biotech drug only worked in a small segment of patients studied, and on average they lived just four months longer than patients given older medications.

Brady Tanner has more than 550 pounds of weight on his back. That’s not his struggle, though. He’s got to dip down and touch a medicine ball so his hips are lower than his knees. That’s what the judges will look for in June when he’s competing against athletes from around the world in Athens, Greece. He’s pushing himself for a reason. “I want to win four gold medals,” he said. Tanner, 31, is one of three Kansans nominated by the state to become members of Team USA for the Special Olympics World Games this summer. He’s joining 316 other athletes from around the country to compete June 25 through July 4, and he will go up against other powerlifters in three different lifts and an overall competition. Before going to Greece, he’s heading to San Diego for training camp with Team USA. When he gets there Sunday, it will be the first time he’s met his coaches for the games, and the first time they will have a chance to evaluate him. Brady has been ramping up his training in preparation for camp, lifting one more day than normal with his father and trainer, Gary Tanner. “He goes as hard as he can as long as he can,” Gary said. “He has no boundaries, no limits.”
Impressive growth Brady has been a fixture in Douglas County and Kansas Special Olympics competitions since 2000, but he wasn’t always able to do shrugs with 100-pound barbells.

The older brother of two sisters, Brady was skinny in high school and started bulking up only when he hung out with Haskell Indian Nations University’s football team in the off-season. “He just took off. He hasn’t stopped yet,” said Gary, who is the interim athletic director and head golf coach at the

That enthusiasm is what has taken Brady to where he is today: Preparing for the biggest competition available to Special Olympians. “He understands that this is the highest level,” Gary said. “He really wants to do well.

TOPEKA — Senate Republican leaders on Friday showed no appetite for a proposal by House Republican leaders to cut the pay of state employees by $19 million. “For us to decrease their pay is not the way we should be going,” said Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton. This week, the House Appropriations Committee approved a plan to cut on a sliding scale the salaries of state employees making more than $40,000 per year, up to 7.5 percent for those earning more than $100,000 per year. The cut would apply to state officers, including legislators, justices and judges, statewide elected officials, and statutory agency heads. But the Appropriations Committee voted to exempt legislative staff from the pay cut. Senate Vice President John Vratil, R-Leawood, a member of the Senate Ways and Means Committee, said no one on the committee was interested in cutting the pay of rank-and-file state employees. The Ways and Means Committee proposal includes only a 7.5 percent cut to state officers. Both plans are expected to be debated next week in the full House and Senate and probably end up in a conference committee for lengthy negotiations. Democrats have been critical of attempts by House Republican leaders to cut state workers’ pay. “I am very concerned about the message we are sending to faculty and researchers,” said House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.
SATURDAY COLUMN
Kansas Bioscience Authority deserves closer inspection By Dolph C. Simons Jr.
Has the Kansas Bioscience Authority performed in the manner envisioned by those who drafted the legislation that created the authority or the legislators who approved the unique and creative method to raise money to help attract and recruit bioscience-related industry and business to the state? The general answer should be a resounding “yes,” but there are many aspects of the KBA operation that raise serious questions and concerns. This is why state Sen. Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, chairwoman of the Senate Commerce Committee, has held recent hearings on the salaries of KBA President and CEO Tom Thornton and other employees. These hearings also have opened up other questions about the KBA and Thornton’s actions. The KBA started off well in 2005 and was very successful in attracting new business and new jobs to the state. KBA operated on a lean budget with a small staff and, yet, it was able to attract a number of businesses and generate much interest throughout the country about Kansas as an ideal site for bioscience businesses. KBA officials also were alert to possibilities of helping existing companies already operating in the state to expand their facilities and add new jobs. The KBA was so successful it started to attract the attention of then-Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and some of her political sidekicks. The authority started off as a nonpolitical entity with directors appointed by both Democratic and Republican
officeholders and the governor. Anytime an authority has the potential of handing out close to $580 million, it is bound to be looked upon as a powerful force that can be used for a number of reasons. Clay Blair, former chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents, an individual deeply involved in efforts to encourage Kansas leaders to be more aggressive in attracting research-based industries, served as the first chairman of the KBA. He was extremely effective but resigned when it became apparent Sebelius and her Democratic cronies wanted to take control of the authority. With Sebelius’ approval, Democratic members of KBA’s board — former Gov. John Carlin, former Kansas Congressman Dan Glickman, former state Rep. Ed McKechnie and, possibly, Sandra Lawrence — engaged in a phony, backhanded and shameful effort to get rid of Blair. CEO Thornton was one of the most aggressive individuals in trying to push Blair aside. These individuals wanted to use the KBA as their checkbook and a way to strengthen their position in the state. In many ways, it was similar to Sebelius’ trying, unsuccessfully, to take control of the Kansas University Hospital board. There were some very close to the situation who acknowledged the effort against Blair was wrong and politically motivated but claimed they couldn’t or wouldn’t do anything about it. They had no courage or backbone. During its first two years, KBA identified and recruited a number of companies and sold them on the benefits of moving to Kansas. Likewise, the KBA worked with existing
Comprehensive Dentistry -Wisdom Teeth - Implants - Crowns - Sedation
Kansas companies helping them to expand their operations. Today, these companies have a total of 3,500 to 4,000 employees. A state investigator assigned to determine whether Blair had done anything wrong told this writer, “The persons calling for the investigation are the ones who should be investigated for wrongdoings and their motives, not Blair.”
COMMENTARY All this is in the past. How about the present? Several weeks ago, Sen. Wagle opened hearings about the KBA, its spending habits, high salaries and leadership. For example, Thornton paid himself a salary of $265,000 last year, plus a bonus of $100,000 plus liberal fringe benefits. He and his wife, also a KBA employee, are paid a total close to $500,000. His defenders claim he is not overpaid and that he runs a tight ship. These supporters are quick to point to two matters as evidence Thornton is doing a good job and deserves the high salary. First, KBA Chairman Carlin recently was quoted as saying, “The authority’s dogged determination led to Kansas winning the National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility.” This is baloney! Sure, KBA dollars were used to pay expenses for trips to Washington, dinners and cocktail parties, limos, etc., but it was the hard and effective work of the Kansas congressional delegation that deserves credit for securing the highly prized facility.
Sen. Pat Roberts was the leading force and, if the state hadn’t had the Pat Roberts building at Kansas State University to offer, free of charge, to the government to use during the transition of the Plum Island facility to Manhattan, NBAF would be located someplace else. Carlin and other KBA cheerleaders also point to 1,195 new jobs they say were created by KBA investments. (Apparently the jobs created under Blair’s leadership don’t count.) It would be interesting to know what these 1,195 jobs cost (considering the tens of millions KBA has handed out), over what period these jobs were created, how many have been for positions at KU and KSU and what private businesses have been brought to Kansas. KBA is a novel and great legislative achievement. It is unfortunate, however, that partisan politics has entered the picture and that KBA leadership has not reflected credit on the authority. Granted, it has given away millions upon millions of dollars, but this is pretty easy to do. It’s not hard work and such handouts are an easy and effective way to win friends and admirers — and to keep these recipients from raising any questions. Some say it is wrong to ask questions about the KBA because it might cause the federal government to think about moving NBAF to another state. If there is a delay on the project, it will be due to the critical fiscal situation in the country, not because some are calling for more oversight of the KBA. It is interesting that some state lawmakers don’t see any need for more or closer oversight of KBA. For example, Senate President
Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, has praised both the KBA and Thornton, saying he has 100 percent confidence in Thornton. Wagle’s hearings have focused new attention and concern about the KBA, and it obviously has touched some tender spots with Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, who called Wagle’s hearing a “witch hunt.” He claimed Gov. Brownback, and apparently Wagle, are “determined to undermine the Bioscience Authority and it couldn’t come at a worse time.” It is believed Wagle plans to hold additional hearings. Also, it is believed she and others are concerned and disappointed it has taken Thornton and his associates so long to provide materials and information requested by the Senate committee. Some have wondered why Thornton has not been more prompt and forthcoming in providing the requested information. Wagle has opened what appears to be a can of worms, and Thornton, Carlin and their supporters apparently would like to put the lid back on this situation. At a time when the state is facing severe fiscal constraints, it is difficult to understand why some lawmakers are not applauding Wagle’s effort to make sure there is proper and sufficient oversight of how KBA, under the leadership of Thornton and Carlin, is using more than $500 million of taxpayers’ money. — The writer of this column served on the original board of directors for KBA and resigned just prior to the end of his first three-year term, indicating he did not wish to be reappointed.

ting lower than normal, which is what the world judges will look for. The low squat means having the hip joint lower than the knee joint, which they practiced by having him squat down to a medicine ball on the ground. “It makes it harder when I have to touch that thing,” said Brady, who competes in the 242-pound weight class. “He wants to push me harder.”
“With normal children, it’s, ‘You were out too late’ or ‘You wrecked the car.’ We’ll never have that. It’s kind of neat.” The trip to San Diego won’t be all work and no play, though. The team will bond together at a baseball game, a beach party and a dance, about which Brady is particularly excited. “I’m going to go boogie,” he said. After the trip, Brady and Gary have about two months of training before he heads to Athens for the world games. Brady’s mother, Janie, and his sisters, Jamie Davis and Jennifer Morris, often pitch in to help him train at Haskell, where Brady is enrolled in a racquetball class. “It’s kept our family tight,” Gary said. Brady’s positive attitude shows through while training, and he won’t give up until he’s achieved his goals. Longterm, that’s four World Games gold medals. In training, though, it’s just squatting down low enough to touch the medicine ball. “That’s no good at all. I’m going to get that,” Brady said.

“
Americans always overreact — they can afford to overreact.” — Bret Kimmel, president of Dallas-based Military Outdoor Clothing survival pods said they have seen an increase in inquiries after the tsunami. Home Depot is experiencing a run on supplies such as first-aid kits, batteries and masks. Online sites that sell survival kits are backed up for days. Lalo has set up an earthquake preparedness section in the back of his store, past the ski masks, long underwear and studded belts that his Hollywood customers usually demand. He wants them to buy the pouches of water that have a shelf life of five years, the 6-inch blocks of food that contain 3,000 calories and the first-aid kits that come in red backpacks. Some want supplies for a more forbidding future. “I want a gas mask,” said Los Angeles resident David Kim, 71, who schlepped into the store carrying a gas mask that he bought after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. He wanted a new one. “You don’t need a gas mask, man,” Lalo said, trying to pry one from his hands. The gas masks Lalo sells are usually used for movie props. The filters expired in 1987. Customers don’t seem to care. Disaster shopping, for many, is a haphazard affair. People waiting in line last week eyed others’ baskets warily, making mental checklists to make sure they hadn’t missed anything they needed. “Light sticks. Good idea,” said a woman in line after seeing a stranger grab a few. She added them to her basket already brimming with items.
Lacy Murrell wanted a hazmat suit, but Lalo doesn’t sell them — or think anyone needs them. Murrell said he plans to make his own suit with a can of lead paint, a hair dryer and a rain jacket. “I’ve been watching this round-the-clock since the tsunami,” he said. “We may see some radiation in the nottoo-distant future.” Some are going to even greater lengths. Larry Hall of Florida is selling spots in a yet unbuilt survival condo in Kansas — $900,000 for half a floor in a condominium that will go 14 stories underground. Hall said he received 368 inquiries about his condos in one day after the tsunami. Typically, he gets maybe two a day. “Americans always overreact — they can afford to overreact,” said Bret Kimmel, president of Dallas-based Military Outdoor Clothing, which has seen a huge
increase in demand for gas masks and chemical suits since the tsunami.
Give them what they want Lalo said he hates watching customers buy things they won’t need. But if customers want ponchos to protect themselves from radiation, or if they demand potassium iodine tablets, he knows, as a manager, he must give them what they want. He has spent a good deal of time on the phone, trying to order more iodine tablets, first-aid kits and camping supplies. It’s not easy to get supplies when everyone seems to want them. “It’s like pulling teeth,” Lalo said. Along with people shopping for disaster gear, Lalo still had his regular customers buying boots, jackets, wool hats and other provisions for regular life. They included actor Colin Farrell, who was browsing the Dickies trousers aisle last week. Said Farrell: “I am preparing for the disaster of getting caught in society without a pair of pants.”

I have a soft gray coat with awesome black stripes and an extra-cute face. I even do a little talking. So, let’s talk about our relationship — I know we’re made for each other!

I came in with my littermates when we were only 8 weeks old. Five months later, my brother, Lachika, and I are the only ones still without a home. Why, why why? It doesn’t make sense. We are such personable and outgoing boys — people lovers to the max! I’m soft gray with bright white. Just oh so handsome, so sweet, and such a good boy. Come find out for yourself!
There are lots of black cats in this world, but none quite like me. Why? ‘Cause I’m everything you could want in an honest-to-gosh wonderful kitty. I’m about 10 months old and dashingly debonair, which means my sparkling personality will charm the socks off you! You can call me good looking, too, just please look my way. Because I’m looking: for love, for home, and for you.

HERO
Hey, if you open this Pandora’s box you’ll find nothing but sunshine, love, and happiness. That’s me; just a super good kitty and ready to soak up some affection. I’m 1 to 3 years old and my beautiful “tortoiseshell” coat with peach highlights and cool brown stripes makes me one pretty lady. I like other cats, but I’m longing for the human touch. So, let’s get in touch and go home!
I stick close to people because all the noise at the shelter scares me a little. I am a bit timid here, so would someone please take me home where I can relax and be the real me? I’m a sweet girl, 2 to 3 years old, and quite an elegantly marked calico kitty. You’ll see what I mean when you see me. I spend my days imagining the home I’ll have someday — someday soon I hope.
Everyone needs a hero, and I want to be yours! I’m about 10 months old and my extra fluffy coat is white but for black ears, tail, and saddle patch — all in all, quite a unique look! And, oh my, do I love to play. But I’m a well-balanced boy, always taking time for getting and giving affection. And when you come and take me home, you’ll always know that you’re MY hero!

BOTTOM LINE
BACKGROUND
City commissioners will consider closing down parts of Massachusetts Street and providing other services for the upcoming Kansas Half Marathon.
The event is slated for Sunday, April 17. The races would start at 7:30 a.m. and would follow a route that starts at Haskell Indian Nations University, travels through the Park Hill Neighborhood, crosses back over the Haskell campus to the Burroughs Creek Trail, travels north on the trail through east Lawrence and to downtown on Massachusetts Street and then will follow the same route back to Haskell. Organizers are asking that Massachusetts Street from Eighth to 11th Street be closed from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. to accommodate the runners and allow for setup and removal of various
barricades and signs. The police department, however, is recommending closure from 7:30 a.m. to 11 a.m., based on past experiences with the event. The event would close about 230 parking meters along Eighth and along Massachusetts streets. The city also is being asked to donate traff ic control, stand-by medical services, and Dumpsters for the event. Traditionally such services have cost the city about $10,000 in staff time, according to the city manager’s office. Proceeds from the half marathon will benef it Lawrence’s Health Care Access.

Breach possible at troubled nuclear plant By Shino Yuasa and Jeff Donn Associated Press Writers
TOKYO — A possible breach at Japan’s troubled nuclear plant has escalated the crisis anew, two full weeks after an earthquake and tsunami first compromised the facility. The development suggested radioactive contamination may be worse than f irst thought, with tainted groundwater the most likely consequence. Japanese leaders defended their decision not to evacuate people from a wider area around the plant, insisting they are safe if they stay indoors. But officials said residents may want to voluntarily move to areas with better facilities, since supplies in the tsunami-devastated region are running short. The escalation in the nuclear plant crisis came as the death toll from the quake and tsunami passed 10,000. Across the battered northeast coast, hundreds of thousands of people whose homes were destroyed still have no power, no hot meals and, in many cases, no showers for two weeks.
Nuclear problems The uncertain nuclear situation delayed efforts to stop the overheated Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant from leaking dangerous radiation. Work was under way today to inject fresh water into one unit, said Hidehiko Nishiyama, a spokesman for Japan’s Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency, or NISA, amid concerns about dumping large amounts of potentially corrosive seawater onto the reactors. Low levels of radiation have been seeping out since the March 11 quake and tsunami knocked out the plant’s cooling system, but a breach could mean a much larger release of contaminants. The most likely consequence would be contamination of the groundwater. “The situation today at the Fukushima Dai-ichi power plant is still very grave and serious. We must remain vigilant,” a somber Prime Minister Naoto Kan said Friday night. “We are not in a position where we can be optimistic. We must treat every development with the utmost care.” The possible breach in the

The temperature and pressure inside the core, which holds the fuel rods, remained stable and was far lower than what would further melt the core. Suspicions of a possible breach were raised when two workers suffered skin burns after wading into water 10,000 times more radioactive than levels normally found in water in or around a reactor, NISA said. Water with equally high radiation levels was found in the Unit 1 reactor building, Tokyo Electric Power Co. officials said. Water was also discovered in Units 2 and 4, and the company said it suspects that, too, is radioactive. Officials acknowledged the water would delay work inside the plant. Radioactivity in seawater just outside one unit tested some 1,250 times higher than normal, probably from both airborne radiation released from the reactors and contaminated water leaked into the sea, Nishiyama said today. But he said the amount posed no immediate health risk.
Troops open fire as protests explode across Syria By Zeina Karam and Bassem Mroue Associated Press Writers
DAMASCUS, SYRIA — Troops opened fire on protesters in cities across Syria and proand anti-government crowds clashed in the capital’s historic old city as one of the Mideast’s most repressive regimes sought to put down demonstrations that exploded nationwide Friday demanding reform. The upheaval sweeping the region definitively took root in Syria as an eight-day uprising centered on a rural southern town dramatically expanded into protests by tens of thousands in multiple cities. The once-unimaginable scenario posed the biggest challenge in decades to Syria’s iron-fisted rule. Protesters wept over the bloodied bodies of slain comrades and massive crowds chanted anti-government slogans, then fled as gunfire erupted, according to footage posted online. Security forces shot to death more than 15 people in at least six cities and villages, including a suburb of the capital, Damascus, witnesses told The Associated Press. Their accounts could not be independently confirmed. The regime of President Bashar Assad, an ally of Iran and supporter of militant groups around the region, had seemed immune from the Middle East’s three-month wave of popular uprising. His security forces, which have long silenced the slightest signs of dissent, quickly snuffed out smaller attempts at protests last month. Syrians also have fearful memories of the brutal crackdown unleashed by his father,
Hafez Assad, when Muslim fundamentalists in the central town of Hama tried an uprising in 1982: Thousands were killed and parts of the city were flattened by artillery and bulldozers. The Assads’ leadership — centered on members of their Alawi minority sect, a branch of Shiite Islam in this mainly Sunni nation — have built their rule by mixing draconian repression with increasing economic freedom, maintaining the loyalty of the wealthy Sunni merchant class in the prosperous cities of Damascus and Aleppo. Bashar Assad now faces the same dilemma confronted by the leaders of Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen and Bahrain — ratchet up violence or offer concessions. A day earlier, his government seemed to test the latter track, offering to consider lifting draconian emergency laws and promising increased pay and benefits for state workers. As massive crowds rejected the offers, the worst violence appeared centered around Daraa, where the arrest of a group of young men for spraying anti-regime graffiti last week set off a cycle of growing demonstrations and increasingly violent government crackdowns. The Syrian government said 34 had been slain in Daraa before Friday, while the U.N. human rights office put the figure at 37. Activists said it was as high as 100. Thousands poured into Daraa’s central Assad Square after Friday prayers, many from nearby villages, chanting “Freedom! Freedom!” and waving Syrian flags and olive branches, witnesses said. Some attacked a bronze statue of Hafez Assad.
Radioactive water Plant officials and government regulators say they don’t know the source of the radioactive water discovered at units 1 and 3 of the six-unit complex. It could have come from a leaking reactor core, associated pipes or a spent fuel pool. Or it may be the result of overfilling the pools with emergency cooling water. The possible breach in the plant’s Unit 3 might be a crack or a hole in the stainless steel chamber of the reactor core or in the spent fuel pool that’s lined with several feet of reinforced concrete. The temperature and pressure inside the core, which holds the fuel rods, remained stable and was far lower than what would further melt the core. Suspicions of a possible breach were raised when two workers suffered skin burns after wading into water 10,000 times more radioactive than levels normally found in water in or around a reactor, NISA said. Elevated levels of radiation have turned up elsewhere, including the tap water in several areas of Japan. In Tokyo, tap water showed radiation levels two times higher than the government
standard for infants, who are particularly vulnerable to cancer-causing radioactive iodine, officials said. The scare caused a run on bottled water in the capital, and Tokyo municipal officials are distributing it to families with babies.
‘Worse than any movie’ The nuclear crisis has compounded the challenges faced by a nation already saddled with a humanitarian disaster. Much of the frigid northeast remains a scene of despair and devastation, with Japan struggling to feed and house hundreds of thousands of homeless survivors, clear away debris and bury the dead. “It’s still like I’m in a dream,” said Tomohiko Abe, a 45-year-old machinist who was in the devastated coastal town of Onagawa trying to salvage any belongings he could from his ruined car. “People say it’s like a movie, but it’s been worse than any movie I’ve ever seen.” The off icial death toll stood at 10,151 today, with more than 17,000 listed as missing, police said.

Latest developments in Arab world’s unrest By The Associated Press
A look at the latest developments in Mideast political unrest on Friday:
LIBYA Qatar becomes the first Arab country to fly combat missions over Libya after NATO agrees to take command of the no-fly zone part of air operations against Moammar Gadhafi’s regime. French and British jets strike Libyan military targets around a besieged eastern city, as talks in the Ethiopian capital to find a way out of the crisis produce a statement from the Libyan government representative saying his country is ready to talk with rebels and accept political reform, possibly including elections. JORDAN Protesters demanding reforms clash with government supporters in the center of Jordan’s capital, pelting each other with stones until security forces charge in and beat protesters, as unrest intensifies in the key U.S. ally. The clashes, in which more than 100 are injured, are the most violent in more than two months of protests. A government supporter dies of a heart attack during the unrest. YEMEN Facing growing calls for his resignation, Yemen’s longtime ruler tells tens of thou-
sands of supporters that he’s ready to step down but only if he can leave the country in “safe hands,” while anti-government protesters mass for a rival rally. The president’s remarks recall a similar statement by Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak days before he was ousted on Feb. 11.
BAHRAIN Security forces fire tear gas at anti-government protesters after a prominent Shiite cleric vows that their demands for the Sunni monarchy to loosen its grip on power will not be silenced by “brutal force.” Activists say one person died. Bahrain’s government, meanwhile, brushes aside suggestions for an international investigation into the deaths of protesters during the month of unrest or allegations that police attacked wounded protesters at a hospital. SAUDI ARABIA Several hundred Shiite Muslims protest in eastern Saudi Arabia to demand the release of detainees and show support for fellow Shiites protesting against the Sunni monarchy in nearby Bahrain, a Saudi news agency says. The protesters call on the Saudi government to withdraw its troops from Bahrain, where they are leading a 1,500-strong Gulf military force helping shore up the Sunni monarchy.

MIDLAND, TEXAS — Baby Jessica is all grown up. She’s Momma Jessica now. The toddler who tumbled down an abandoned water well and got trapped more than two decades ago turns 25 today, a milestone that gives her access to a trust fund of up to $800,000 donated by thousands of sympathetic strangers who spent 2 1/2 days glued to the television until she was free. Jessica McClure Morales is now a contented stay-at-home mother of two, and her youngest is 18 months old — the same age she was when her accident drew the eyes of the world to this oil-patch city. She lives less than two miles from the site of the 1987 rescue. “That’s all Jessica has ever wanted was to be a mom and have a family,” said her father, Lewis “Chip” McClure. “She’s a good mom and keeps her eyes on her kids. She’s certainly a doting mother.” McClure Morales has no memory of being wedged in the pipe or of the 15 operations that followed her ordeal, according to her father. A scar from her hairline to the bridge of her nose is still visible where her head rubbed against the wall of the well. She also lost a toe to gangrene because one leg was pinned above her head in the underground shaft. These days, she and her husband run a mobile carand truck-washing business out of their home, according

IN THIS OCTOBER 1987 FILE PHOTO, RESCUE WORKERS carry 18-month-old Jessica McClure to safety in Midland, Texas, after she was trapped for 58 hours when she plunged 22 feet into an abandoned water well. Now married with two children, Jessica McClure Morales turns 25 today and gains access to a trust fund of up to $800,000, the result of donations from thousands of sympathetic strangers across the globe glued to the television until she was freed. to a recent interview she gave to the Dallas Morning News. In October 1987, McClure and his wife, Reba “Cissy” McClure, were poor teenagers struggling to make ends meet during the depths of the oil bust. While visiting her sister, Jessica’s mother left her in the yard while she went to answer the phone. Moments later, Jessica came upon the 8-inch well opening and fell inside. Her plight captivated an immense television audience. Alone and 22 feet below ground, Baby Jessica sang about Winnie the Pooh. It was “a nightmare that got worse and worse,” recalled her father, now 42, who makes his living selling aircraft in Tyler. When rescuers f inally brought her to the surface, her head was bandaged. She was covered with dirt and bruises, and her right palm was immobilized to her face. The image was ingrained in millions of people’s memo-
ries and won a Pulitzer Prize for Odessa American photographer Scott Shaw. A 1997 poll taken by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press found that coverage of Princess Diana’s death earlier that year was rivaled only by Jessica’s rescue in worldwide attention over the previous decade. At the time of the accident, sympathetic strangers showered the family with teddy bears, homemade gifts, cards and cash. McClure said his daughter has talked about first setting up trusts for her two children’s college education. He said he’s encouraged her to find a financial adviser. “We’ve talked about it quite a bit,” McClure said. “That’s going to be a challenge. It’d be a challenge to anyone. She’s a very settled and down-toearth girl. She’ll be fine.” Bank documents show the couple’s home was purchased with help from the trust. Carroll Thomas, Midland’s
mayor in 1987, said the city’s reputation benefited from the rescue. Most people around the world had not heard of Midland back then. “They had a good feeling about Midland because they read about it and saw how hard we were working,” he said. “It went on so long.” About three years after the TV cameras left, Chip and Cissy divorced. Both have remarried. McClure Morales’ mother, now known as Cissy Porter, did not respond to a phone message. McClure said he and his exwife allowed their daughter to decide whether to talk to the media once she became old enough. She has spoken publicly just three times and declined interview requests from The Associated Press. Jessica’s low-key personality has helped her adjust over the years, her father said. “She’s not a center-of attention person,” he said. “She just doesn’t think a whole lot about it.”

OMG! Online abbreviations make Oxford dictionary By Jill Lawless
Although the new abbreviations are associated with modern electronic communications, some are LONDON — OMG! LOL! The surprisingly old. The first confirmed use of OMG was venerable Oxford English in a 1917 letter by a British admiral. Associated Press Writer
Dictionary approves of the three-letter, Internetinspired expressions you use for “Oh, my God!” and “Laughing out loud.” It is adding them to the authoritative reference book’s latest online update. You can now text the news to your BFF. That’s “best friends forever.” All three expressions — and IMHO, or “in my humble opinion” — are among 900 new words included this week. Cracking the dictionary, however, is no easy task. “The OED is quite cautious,” said Graeme Diamond, OED’s principal editor for new words. Terms made popular online are only included among the dictionary’s 300,000 entries when they have crossed over into everyday use, Diamond said. Although the new abbreviations are associated with modern electronic communications, some are surprisingly old. The f irst confirmed use of OMG was in a 1917 letter by a British admiral. “Things people think are new words normally have a
longer history,” Diamond said. Editors publish updates to the online Oxford every three months. The OED’s Internet version was launched in 2000 and gets 2 million hits a month from subscribers. It may replace the mammoth 20-volume printed edition, last published in 1989. The new update also includes: ● “muffin top,” “a protuberance of flesh above the waistband of a tight pair of trousers.” ● wag, “wives and girlfriends.” It was first used in 2002 to describe the female partners of members of the England soccer team. Now it denotes the glamorous and extravagant female partners of male celebrities. “By our standards, wag is a real rocket of a word,” Diamond said. “To go from being coined in 2002 to being included in 2011 is quite unusual.” ● “heart” as a verb, a casual equivalent of “to love” that is represented with a symbol, as seen on millions of sou-
venirs proclaiming “I (heart) New York.” It may be the first English usage to come from T-shirts and bumper stickers. “At some point, people started to vocalize what the symbol was rather than what the symbol stood for,” said Fiona McPherson, another editor. “People now talk about hearting things left, right and center.” Well, the latest update hearts the Road Runner cartoon character. The word “meep” — a short, highpitched sound — made the cut. There are other new terms from the online world, including ego-surfing (the practice of searching for your own name on the Internet) and dot-bomb (a failed Internet company). Diamond said the Internet has revolutionized the way lexicographers work, giving them a huge amount of new evidence of word use. Which brings us to another new online-inspired word: TMI, “too much information.”

Police question teen about school shooting M A R T I N S V I L L E , I ND . ( AP ) — Dustin Tatum was leaving his middle school cafeteria Friday when he heard a loud bang, then chaos ensued as a teacher rushed him and several fellow students into a classroom, locked the door, turned off the lights and ordered everyone to hit the floor. Only later did Tatum learn his close friend, a 15-year-old classmate, was shot in the stomach and that police were
identifying the alleged shooter as a former student expelled from the central Indiana school just days earlier. “It was a nightmare hearing my friend just got shot and he’s being lifelined to the hospital,” said Tatum, 14. The lone victim, Chance Jackson, was listed in critical but stable condition Friday evening at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis, where he was taken by helicopter.
The former 15-year-old student suspected in the attack was arrested miles away on the south side of Martinsville about an hour after the shooting, which unfolded before 7 a.m. Friday, just as classes were about to begin, State Police Sgt. Curt Durnil said. The teen was being questioned at the county jail as Morgan County prosecutors reviewed possible charges against him.

president is obsessed “withThepretending that we are
not running the operation — a dismaying expression of Obama’s view that his country is so tainted by its various sins that it lacks the moral legitimacy to ... what? Save Third World people from massacre?” Obama deemed it a great diplomatic success that the League deigned to permit others to fight and die to save fellow Arabs for whom 19 of 21 Arab states have yet to lift a finger. And what about that brilliant U.N. resolution? ● Russia’s Vladimir Putin is already calling the Libya operation a medieval crusade. ● China is calling for a cease-fire in place — which would completely
undermine the allied effort by leaving Gadhafi in power, his people at his mercy and the country partitioned and condemned to ongoing civil war. ● Brazil joined China in that call for a cease-fire. This just hours after Obama ended his fawning two-day Brazil visit. Another triumph of presidential personal diplomacy. And how about NATO? Let’s see. As of this writing, Britain wanted the operation to be led by NATO. France adamantly disagreed, citing Arab sensibilities. Germany wanted no part of anything, going so far as to pull four of its ships from NATO command in the Mediterranean. France and Germany walked out of a NATO meeting on Monday, while Norway had planes in Crete ready to go but refused to let them fly until it had some idea who the hell is running the operation. And Turkey, whose prime minister four months ago proudly accepted the Gadhafi International Prize for Human Rights, has been particularly resistant to the Libya operation from the beginning. As for the United States, who knows what American policy is. Administration officials insist we are not trying to bring down Gadhafi, even as the president insists that he must go. Although on Tuesday Obama did add “unless he changes his approach.” Approach, mind you. In any case, for Obama, military objectives take a back seat to diplomatic appearances. The president is

obsessed with pretending that we are not running the operation — a dismaying expression of Obama’s view that his country is so tainted by its various sins that it lacks the moral legitimacy to ... what? Save Third World people from massacre? Obama seems equally obsessed with handing off the lead role. Hand off to whom? NATO? Quarreling amid Turkish resistance (see above), NATO still can't agree on taking over command of the airstrike campaign, which is what has kept the Libyan rebels alive. This confusion is purely the result of Obama's decision to get America into the war and then immediately relinquish American command. Never modest about himself, Obama is supremely modest about his country. America should be merely “one of the partners among many,” he said Monday. No primus inter pares for him. Even the Clinton administration spoke of America as the indispensable nation. And it remains so. Yet at a time when the world is hungry for America to lead — no one has anything near our capabilities, experience and resources — America is led by a man determined that it should not. A man who dithers over parchment. Who starts a war from which he wants out right away. Good God. If you go to take Vienna, take Vienna. If you’re not prepared to do so, better then to stay home and do nothing.
land two out of every three new construction jobs. Hispanics also contribute essential numbers to the ranks of teachers, professors, lawyers, medical doctors and nurses, and the military. And the growth in this population is no longer a local issue, affecting only the coasts and the southwest. The Hispanic population is now growing in the South and the Midwest, in states like Alabama, Budig Louisiana, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Nebraska and Delaware. In Arizona, where the Hispanic population is 180,000 less than predicted, the opposite is occurring. Hispanics see Arizona as being hostile to their presence, because it was the first state to enact a law penalizing businesses for knowingly hiring undocumented immigrants. Additionally, the U.S. Census Bureau projects that the Hispanic population will grow from 15 percent in 2008 to 30 percent by 2050. That means one in three Americans would be Hispanic. And by the same year, 54 percent of the country will be minority. Once again, an immigrant group is writing its own powerful and positive story in America, the land of opportunity. But this story will only have a happy ending if society meets its obligations to this growing and diverse

population. And key to meeting our obligations is providing the education they need and deserve. Sadly, this is not the current case. Far too many Hispanic students are not completing high school. Just one in 10 Hispanic high school dropouts has a General Educational Development (GED) credential, widely regarded as the best “second chance” pathway to college, vocational training, and military service. This is a tragic waste of intellect and skill. As the Hispanic population grows and spreads, it will heavily influence American politics, culture and economics. Whether that influence is positive will depend largely on education. If Hispanic Americans are to capitalize on their skills, language and ambition, they will need a well-rounded education to meet their already deep appreciation for learning and passion for creativity. Some sectors are already responding. Community colleges across the country have reached out to many Hispanic students with notable success. More than half of the Hispanics enrolled in higher education are in two-year institutions. Appreciably more cooperation is needed from the four-year colleges and universities if the professional needs of America are to be met. The Ohio State University has, in recent times, become a national model for minority receptivity in the health sciences where it has opened more medical and nursing slots to able students of color.

sities are following rigorous suit. To meet the needs of this growing population, more and more businesses, foundations and associations are taking an active role in recruitment and scholarship programs. The College Board gives a clear example of what organized groups can do. “As America’s largest educational association, the College Board has made a long-term commitment to serve as a convener, to ensure that education services are equitable and fairly distributed, and to take strong stands on issues such as the importance of bilingualism and sound immigration policy,” Gaston Caperton, president of the College Board, has said. He has put his money where his mouth is by taking a strong stance on the DREAM act, bringing educators together to sort out thorny issues, and by being a great supporter of language education. More and more organizations with might are coming forward, but the challenge is great and time is short. It’s time for the nation to acknowledge that our future relies, in no small part, on the growth and development of our Hispanic friends and neighbors. Let’s see if we can help them help themselves, and, in the process, us all. We can ill afford to miss this golden opportunity. — Budig is a distinguished professor at the College Board in New York City, and the past president/chancellor of three major state universities, including Kansas University. He also served as president of Major League Baseball’s American League (1994-2000).

What is the best way to share your beliefs with strangers? ————
Share an honest encounter, tell the truth, invite others The Rev. Joanna Harader, pastor, Peace Mennonite Church, 615 Lincoln St.: This Sunday, people in many churches will hear the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman (John 4:3-42). The Bible tells us that “(m)any Samaritans ... believed in (Jesus) because of the woman’s testimony.” So let’s look at how she shared her beliefs. First, she encountered Jesus for herself. She spoke to him. She listened to him. She questioned him. One might even say she argued with him. The conversation between Jesus and this woman is the longest dialogue with Jesus recorded in the Bible. Then, after encountering Jesus for herself, the woman went back to the city and shared her testimony: “Come
| 11B.
and see a man who told me everything I have ever done! He cannot be the Messiah, can he?” (v. 29) Her testimony is invitational, not dogmatic: “Come and see.” Her testimony is based on her personal experience with Jesus, not on some lofty theological construct: “a Harader man who told me everything I have ever done.” Her testimony reveals her curiosity about the deepest questions of faith, not her certainty: “He cannot be the Messiah, can he?” I guess I’m not sure how we share our beliefs with

strangers — and friends — successfully. But I think this woman at the well gives us insight into how to share our beliefs faithfully. First, have an honest encounter with Jesus. A probing, listening, comfortable encounter. Then share honestly about what we have experienced. Tell the truth about our encounter. Tell the truth about our questions. And invite others to come and see. Ultimately, bringing people to faith in Christ is not up to us. The people of the woman’s city came to see Jesus because ● of what she said.

By not just talking, but by living the authentic Christian life The Rev. Shaun LePage, pastor, Community Bible Church, 906 N. 1464 Road: There are many popular methods for sharing one’s faith: The media blitz — radio, television, mailers. Street preaching and knocking on doors. The “ big event” approach offers free pizza, awesome entertainment and (in small print) an evangelist. The “forced conversion” approach is still being used by some. And let’s not forget the “prophet of doom” approach: shouting thanks to God for “dead soldiers” and waving banners declaring what “God hates.” But, the New Testament directs Christians to an incarnational approach. Absolutely, we must speak the gospel (good news) of Jesus Christ. We are sadly deficient —
indeed, unloving — if we fail to tell people what the Bible teaches about Jesus: “And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). But, most of our instructions for sharing our faith are about living what we believe — “being” people worthy of Jesus’ name. Being the church of Jesus Christ. Jesus said, LePage “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35). He said his followers were to “be” his
witnesses — not just “do” witnessing (Acts 1:8). The Apostle Paul taught us not only to “speak” but also to “pray” and “conduct ourselves with wisdom toward outsiders” (Colossians 4:4-6). He taught us to “adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in every respect” by “living sensibly, righteously and godly ... zealous for good works” (Titus 2:9-15). Is this the most successful way to share? Yes! Statistically, most Christians were converted through the words and life of a friend or family member who authentically lived the life and patiently explained the truth. This is the “incarnational” approach — not just talk, but living the authentic Christian life. — Send e-mail to Shaun LePage at shaun@community-bible.org.

Tours to resume at Cedar Crest TOPEKA — The doors at the Kansas Governor’s Mansion will be open to the public again in two weeks. Gov. Sam Brownback’s spokeswoman says tours of the mansion will begin on April 4. The tours had been postponed in late December as former Gov. Mark Parkinson’s administration left and Brownback’s administration moved in. The mansion, called Cedar Crest, was built in 1928 and became the governor’s official residence in 1962. The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that public tours are every Monday from 1 to 3:30 p.m. and Tuesdays by appointment only. Tours start every half hour and last about 30 minutes.

Scouts go high-tech with smartphone sales By Meghan Barr
ALISON BORODKIN OF SOLON, OHIO, left, waits for Girl Scout Caroline Moore to run her credit card for the purchase of some Girl Scout cookies Monday at Parkside Elementary School in Solon.
Associated Press Writer
P A R M A , O H I O — The Girl Scouts were selling their cookies the old-fashioned way, pulling a creakywheeled red wagon laden with Thin Mints and Samoas down a suburban street. But the affair took a decidedly 21st-century twist when, with a polite smile, one of the girls pulled out a smartphone and inquired: “Would you like to pay with a credit card?” The girls are among about 200 troops in northeast Ohio who are changing the way Girl Scouts do business. For the first time, the girls are accepting credit cards using a device called GoPayment, a free credit card reader that clips onto smart phones. Girl Scout leaders hope that allowing customers to pay with plastic will drive up cookie sales in a world where carrying cash is rapidly going the way of dial-up Internet. Keeping pace with changing technology is a priority lately for the historic Girl Scouts, an organization that’s preparing to celebrate its 100th anniversary next year. “Normally I think a lot of customers would love to buy cookies, but they have to walk by the booth because they’re

If the Court finds the child is a child in need of care, the Court may also find that the father is unfit by reason or conduct or condition which renders the father unable to care properly for the child, the conduct or condition is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future, and the parental rights of the father should be terminated. The Court may also order the father to pay child support. On the 9th day of May 2011, at 10:30 a.m., the father and any other person claiming legal custody of the child must appear for a formal and an admit or deny hearing before the District Court, Division 6 at the Douglas County Law Enforcement and Judicial Center, 111 E 11th Street., Lawrence, Kansas.

Ten troops in San Diego, Calif., are also testing out the device this month. “I know there’s a lot of interest across the country with other Girl Scout councils,” Love said. “So I wouldn’t be surprised if you see it everywhere this time next year.” GoPayment is just one of several popular mobile payment devices that took off in 2010, with hundreds of thou-

U.S. job growth uneven
W A S H I N G T O N ( A P ) — U.S. companies have added jobs for 12 straight months, giving some of the hardest-hit states a lift. But the gains have been uneven and several states are still losing jobs. California and Michigan, which each suffered some of the worst job losses during the recession, are adding jobs again. California last month had its single best month for job creation in more than two decades. Still, six states lost jobs from February 2010 through last month. Among the worst for job creation in that time were New Mexico and New Jersey, states that only a year ago were in the middle of the pack. Overall, 44 states added jobs in that stretch, one of the
best year-over-year showings since the recession ended in June 2009. And the unemployment rate has fallen in 41 states. The February report from the Labor Department on state and regional employment is the latest sign that job growth is picking up. Nationwide, employers added 1.3 million net jobs in that period. California, which was still losing jobs as recently as September, has added nearly 200,000 jobs in that time. That’s second only to Texas, which added 254,200 net jobs. Nearly half of that increase in California occurred in February, when the state gained 96,500 jobs. That’s the most on record dating back to 1990.

‘Grandfather’s Birthday’ story remembered
Dear Daughter: Happy to. Here it is:
It Was Grandfather’s Birthday by Rudy Joe Mano (reprinted with permission) It was Grandfather’s birthday. He was 79. He got up early, shaved, showered, combed his hair and put on his Sunday best so he would look nice when they came. He skipped his daily walk to the town cafe where he had coffee with his cronies. He wanted to be home when they came. He put his porch chair on the sidewalk so he could get a better view of the street when they drove up to help celebrate his birthday. At noon, he got tired but decided to forgo his nap so he could be there when they came. Most of the rest of the after-
ter from “Loving Auntie,” whose 10-year-old nephew has begun correcting the grammar of the adults around him. When I was 8 years old, we lived with my grandparents. Grandma often corrected Grandpa’s grammar and pronunciation in front of other people. I felt so embarrassed for him, although he quietly accepted the corrections from his beloved wife. His family moved here from Denmark, anniesmailbox@comcast.net and he had to drop out of noon he spent near the tele- school in third grade to help phone so he could answer it support his family after his when they called. He has five married children, 13 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. One son and a daughter live within 10 miles of his place. They hadn’t visited him for a long time. But today was his birthday and they were sure to come. At suppertime, he left the cake untouched so they could cut it and have dessert with him. After supper, he sat on the porch waiting. At 8:30, he went to his room to prepare for bed. Before retiring, he left a note on the door that read: “Be sure to wake me when you come.” It was Grandfather’s Birthday. He was 79.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Saturday, March 26: This year, you will have a natural audience. You can lead or instrument changes. Responsibilities might feel demanding and sometimes drag you down. If you are single, you might not be as up for relating as in the past. If you are attached, help your sweetie lighten up. Capricorn makes demands. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ Make calls and let friends know your plans. They might enjoy joining you. Your creativity flourishes. Tonight: Could be a late one. Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ Reach out for someone at a distance. Try to understand what is going on with a friend by imagining what it must be like to live his or her life. Tonight: How about a movie? Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ Relate on an individual level. People seem to be far more responsive. Have you not been giving certain loved ones and/or friends enough attention? Tonight:
A curious professor opens an ornate box, unleashing the “Scream of the Banshee” (8 p.m., Syfy). And that can’t be good. “Scream” also happens to be the 200th made-for-Syfy shocker to air on Saturday nights since 2002. Has it only been 200? I stopped counting after “Dinocroc.” Or was it “Mansquito”? “Frankenfish”? “Sharktopus”? On a recent “Modern Family,” Phil and Claire celebrate their decidedly lowbrow tastes by sneaking off to the mall to catch something with a title suspiciously close to “Sharktopus.” Not to quibble with a sitcom over realism, but you really can’t see bad movies made this cheaply in the theaters anymore. They all go straight to DVD, or straight to Syfy. Sadly, the grade Z shocker genre — once referred to “exploitation movies,” and later appreciated as psychotronic parables filled with peculiar messages and meanings — has been relegated to a tiny niche. Much as Weird Al Yankovic devoured the once-diverse novelty-song market, Syfy seems to have the grade Z monster-movie business all to itself. ● It’s hard to tell if Norm MacDonald is more famous for being on “Saturday Night Live,” or for being fired from “Saturday Night Live.” Tonight he challenges his old show head-on with “Norm MacDonald: Me Doing Stand-up” (10:30 p.m., Comedy Retired Supreme Court Central). This serves as a warm-up of sorts Justice Sandra Day O’Confor his new Comedy Central series “Sports nor is 81. Actor-director Show with Norm MacDonald” debuting Leonard Nimoy is 80. on April 12. Actor Alan Arkin is 77. House Democratic Leader Tonight’s other highlights Nancy Pelosi is 71. Actor ● NCAA Basketball Tournament (5:40 James Caan is 71. Journalp.m., CBS). ist Bob Woodward is 68. ● A new crew appears on “Dancing with the Stars” (7 p.m., ABC). ● Fans of “Mildred Pierce” (7 p.m., TCM) can put themselves in the mood for the HBO version on Sunday with the 1945 adaptation starring Joan Crawford. ● George attends his father’s funeral on “Being Human” (8 p.m., BBC America). ● Scheduled on “48 Hours Mystery” (9 p.m., CBS): A father struggles to clear his son’s name. ● Stephanie envisions the end of the line on “No Ordinary Family” (9 p.m., ABC). ● Helen Mirren and Emily Blunt appear on “The Graham Norton Show” (9 p.m., BBC America). ● Russell Brand hosts “Saturday Night Live” (10:30 p.m., NBC), featuring musical guest Chris Brown.
Cult choice If Todd Haynes can re-adapt “Mildred Pierce” why can’t Jonathan Demme remake “The Manchurian Candidate” (7 p.m., AMC)? Series notes An old beau needs help on “Harry’s Law” (7 p.m., NBC) ... On back-to-back episodes of “Cops” (Fox), Nevada (7 p.m.), Texas (7:30 p.m.) ... Murder in D.C. on “Criminal Minds” (8 p.m., CBS) ... Cultrelated on “Law & Order: Los Angeles” (8 p.m., NBC) ... John Walsh hosts “America’s Most Wanted” (8 p.m., Fox) ... A corpse in a fountain sprouts clues on “Law & Order: SVU” (9 p.m., NBC).
