Experience seemed to matter Tuesday to the voters in the Lawrence City Commission race — or at least to the ones who showed up. Voters gave big victories to Bob Schumm and Mike Dever, the two most seasoned candidates in the field.

In Holton, he also owned Padden Furniture Store and Federated Department Store for a number of years. He purchased Morris Funeral Home in Winfield in 1973.

BRIEFLY KC man sentenced for dealing meth A federal judge Tuesday ordered a 20-year-old Kansas City, Mo., man to serve 10 years in federal prison for selling methamphetamine in 2010 to undercover officers, including at the service center east of Lawrence on Interstate 70. U.S. District Judge Sam A. Crow in Topeka also ordered Andres Martinez to forfeit $8,400 and two vehicles that were used in commission of the crimes, according to U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom’s office. Martinez had pleaded guilty last year to four counts of traveling in interstate commerce in furtherance of drug trafficking and three counts of distributing methamphetamine. Martinez in his plea admitted on May 27, 2010, and June 14, 2010, he sold $2,400 worth of methamphetamine each time to undercover agents at the service center, which is five miles east of the East Lawrence interchange on the Kansas Turnpike. He also admitted selling $3,600 worth of methamphetamine to an undercover agent at a gasoline station in Topeka and to collecting $1,200 as a payment for meth he sold to an undercover agent in Topeka.

his death. Among the documents released by the FBI were investigators’ notes related to two letters written in 1999 by a woman who was later found to have mental problems. The woman wrote to her former husband in Arkansas City, telling him about a plot hatched in Las Vegas by a group calling itself the All Prayer Warriors. Investigators interviewed the woman, who said she had made up the group’s name and never actually met with anyone when she was in Las Vegas about harming Tiller. The U.S. attorney’s office in Wichita, after reviewing the case, declined to prosecute her, the documents show. The FBI agent in charge of the case agreed with that decision. Nonetheless, Tiller’s lawyer requested that the doctor be provided with protection by the U.S. Marshals Service during July 1999 — the month when the woman’s letter stated the doctor was to be assassinated. The documents do not indicate whether the doctor got the requested protection at that time, although

p.m., and the other two candidates never were able to gain much ground. Mike Machell, a human resources director and chairman of the city’s Library Board, finished in fourth place with 3,362 votes. Lawrence architect Sven Alstrom garnered 2, 254 votes. Candidates said it was hard to determine what issues really motivate voters in the campaign. “I think a lot of this shows that people are still focusing on digging themselves out of their own personal situations,” Dever said. “And I think part of it is that there haven’t been a lot of glamorous issues at City Hall lately.” Dever said he will urge the

the U.S. Marshals Service had at times provided him with such protection. Tiller family attorney Lee Thompson declined to comment Monday on the FBI documents or authorities’ handling of death threats against his slain client. The FBI also investigated claims in November 1996 that an anti-abortion activist living in Milton told an inmate at a women’s prison in Topeka that he planned to kill Tiller. It’s unclear who the inmate or the visitor was because the FBI blacked out all names in the documents. However, Shannon was in that prison at that time. And the inmate told the FBI the same activist visited her at the Sedgwick County Jail in 1993 — the same time Shannon was being held there for wounding Tiller. Jay Greeno, the attorney who represented Shannon at her trial, said he was unaware of any FBI visits to Shannon while she was imprisoned in Topeka. Shannon is currently serving time in a federal prison in Minnesota after being convicted in a series of abortion clinic arsons and bombings. Roeder testified during his murder trial that he visited Shannon when she was imprisoned in Topeka. However, his ex-wife, Lindsey Roeder, said she did not
believe her ex-husband ever lived in Milton. Roeder is serving a life prison sentence. The female inmate told FBI agents that the activist who visited her did not discuss a timetable or plan. She also said she didn’t think the man was serious. The activist denied to FBI agents that he had considered killing Tiller, though he refused to undergo a polygraph. The FBI closed its investigation after federal prosecutors said they considered “the matter hearsay, without foundation, and lacking prosecutive merit.” Other death threats the FBI investigated included that of a woman with a history of threatening Tiller who told a nurse at a Wichita hospital in 2000 that she planned “to finish the job” on the doctor. The U.S. attorney’s office told her defense attorney it would prosecute the woman for her all of her threats — if she made another one. Federal prosecutors also declined to prosecute a Navy veteran who walked into a Topeka veterans’ hospital in 1999 and threatened to kill Tiller. He later told investigators he was not serious but made the threat in an effort to get treatment. In declining to charge him, the U.S. attorney’s office said he was mentally unstable at the time.
commission to continue focusing on balancing budgets, coming up with a plan for the city’s trash service and converting the former Farmland Industries property into a business and industrial park. “I feel like we have built a good foundation over the past few years, and now it is time to build out the rest of the structure,” Dever said. Schumm said he thought three issues swayed voters to varying degrees: opposition to special taxing districts, concern that the city’s living wage provisions may be weakened, and support for finding the Lawrence Community Shelter a new home. “I think I endeared myself to the shelter supporters because I said I really want to take a leadership role on that issue,” Schumm said. “I think there’s more the commission can do on that.” Carter — who is the son of
former mayor Ed Carter, who served briefly with Schumm in the early 1980s — said he wants to focus on improving the city’s economic development efforts. He said he will push to create quarterly business roundtable sessions where elected leaders receive input from local business owners. “I think we’ll find that the small business experts in this community know best how to create an environment to grow jobs,” Carter said. Schumm, Dever and Carter will take their seats at next Tuesday’s City Commission meeting. They will join incumbents Mike Amyx and Aron Cromwell. Rob Chestnut and Lance Johnson both chose not to seek re-election and will finish their terms Tuesday. — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362. Follow him at Twitter.com/clawhorn_ljw.

He wants the public to have a say in upcoming talk about school consolidation. “The community really wants to have some genuine input into the process,” said Ingram, who invites people to email him at ringram@ sunflower.com. “If there’s any one message, that’s it.” Kimball’s campaign included a focus on seeing the task force’s work carried through. She was among two dozen volunteers who spent eight months studying the district’s elementary schools in search of needed upgrades and potential savings. The task force concluded that Wakarusa Valley School should close next year, a decision the school board reached last month. The task force also recommends consolidating six elementary schools into either three or four within the next three to five years. “I think people are very engaged in the issues right now, and I think they’re looking for strong leadership,” Kimball said. “People have followed the (task force) process and want us to honor the community input that has been given so far, through that process.” Masten embraces the task force’s work but cautions that its recommendations must carry true public support to become reality. That’s why
the district needs to improve its communications, especially when it comes to budgets and other major decisions. “Lawrence has got a lot of very smart people, and they want to see the facts for themselves, and they want to have the ability to comment,” Masten said. “And I think the train’s moving a little too fast right now for some people towards closings and consolidations. “If they have to happen, we’ve got to have a very open, understandable process for choosing the schools that we do. I’m not saying they haven’t done a good job of looking at it. I just think the communications side of it has not been as good as it could be.” Diaz Moore wants increase public participation in district business, through task forces and advisory committees — all part of an overall plan to increase transparency that could help everyone move forward after difficult decisions and issues that have surfaced in recent years. “We have to try to rebuild trust in the school district,” Diaz Moore said. “What’s important now is to we have to build community buy in, and make sure we move forward as one community — that even if we disagree with the decisions, we at least understand where they came from.” — Schools reporter Mark Fagan can be reached at 832-7188.

Nuclear plant plugs radioactive leak Workers at Japan’s tsunami-damaged nuclear power plant today finally stemmed a tide of radiation that was pouring into the Pacific and exacerbating concerns over the safety of seafood, the operator said. High levels of contamination have been measured at the shoreline of the Fukushima Dai-ichi complex in recent days, prompting the government to set limits for the first time on the amount of radiation permitted in fish. While officials have said the crack in a maintenance pit plugged early today was the only one found, they have not explicitly ruled out that radioactive water is leaking into the sea from another point. “Right now, just because the leak has stopped, we are not relieved yet,” said Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano. “We are checking whether the leak has completely stopped, or whether there may be other leaks.” Authorities insisted the radioactive water would dissipate and posed no immediate threat to sea creatures or people who might eat them. Most experts agreed.

Congress OKs rollback of health care law Congress sent the White House its first rollback of last year’s health care law Tuesday, a bipartisan repeal of a burdensome tax-reporting requirement that’s widely unpopular with businesses. Even President Barack Obama is eager to see it gone. The Senate voted 87 to 12 to repeal the filing requirement, which would have forced millions of businesses to file tax forms for every vendor selling them more than $600 in goods each year, starting in 2012. The filing requirement is unrelated to health care; however, it would have been used to pay for part of the new health law. Republicans hope it is the first of many such bills, resulting in the entire health care law being scrapped. Democrats say the bill is part of an inevitable tinkering that will be needed to improve the health measure. 2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.
Florida lawmaker tapped to head DNC Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a congresswoman from South Florida and a key White House defender, was chosen by President Barack Obama on Tuesday to become chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee. Obama picked the four-term lawmaker from South Florida to succeed Tim Kaine, who earlier Tuesday announced he would seek a Senate seat in Virginia. The move elevates Wasserman Schultz to a Schultz crucial role as Obama looks toward a re-election campaign that will use the DNC to define his likely Republican rivals. “As Chairman Kaine departs, new leadership must come on,” Vice President Joe Biden wrote Tuesday afternoon to members of the Democratic National Committee, which will have to ratify her selection. 3 | GEORGIA
Storms in South leave 9 dead An enormous tree limb that crashed through a Georgia family’s bedroom killed a father and the young son he was holding in his arms Tuesday as a fast-moving storm system pounded the South with tornadoes, hail and spectacular lightning. At least nine people were killed around the region, including several who died on roads made treacherous by downed trees and power lines. The storms were part of a system that cut a wide swath from the Mississippi River across the Southeast to Georgia and the Carolinas on Monday and early Tuesday. Drivers dodged debris during the morning commute in Atlanta, where one person was killed when a tree fell on his car. Georgia officials estimated the damage at $32 million but that it would likely climb. The National Weather Service had confirmed at least eight of the nearly two-dozen possible tornadoes it was investigating in several states, though the damage in Jackson was blamed on 60 mph winds that weren’t part of a twister. The system that also knocked out power to hundreds of thousands had moved over the Atlantic Ocean by late morning. Crews were restoring power to many.

The lawsuit was filed against the chapter and its national association, 10 unnamed chapter members, the Kansas Alpha House Corp., which owns the chapter house, and Stacy, the house corporation’s president. The Jason Wren Initiative is a seminar conducted on the KU campus in April 2010 aimed at providing education about underage drinking. It was organized by the SAE chapter, its national association and foundation in conjunction with the Delta Gamma Sorority’s KU chapter.

A group of Lawrence business leaders and churches is hoping to thwart an effort to include gender identity in the city’s antidiscrimination policy. The group will host a meeting at 7 p.m. today at Christ Covenant Reformed Presbyterian Church, 2312 Harvard Road. The event is free and open to the public. The meeting is sponsored by Voice of Reason and, according to a flier for the meeting, the group wants to show how the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender “agenda is attempting to transform our culture and how we should respond.” Greg Cromer helped organize the gathering. He said it is in response to an ordinance passed in Manhattan that protects people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender in housing, public accommodations and employment. An ordinance in Lawrence includes sexual orientation but not gender identity. Cromer said the purpose of the meeting is to educate the public on the effect of the Manhattan ordinance. He said inclusion of gender identity to a local ordinance could interfere with the operations of business and religious beliefs. He could not provide specifics, saying that was what the meeting will be about. He said the Manhattan ordinance has created “turmoil.”

An attorney for the father of a Kansas University freshman who died in 2009 from alcohol poisoning at Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity said Tuesday a Douglas County lawsuit “has been resolved to the satisfaction of all parties.” Jay Wren filed the lawsuit in 2009 against the Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity chapter, its national association, the local housing corporation and president John Stacy and other defendants. “Underage drinking should not have but did occur inside the Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter house at KU. Said underage drinking included Jason Wren and other minors,” according to a statement released by Stephen Gorny, Wren’s attorney. “The parties are pleased that the Jason Wren Initiative will continue on a yearly basis and hope that the

The lawsuit alleged fraternity members failed to seek medical help for Wren despite his intoxication and a head injury. Wren had used a fake ID earlier that night to drink alcohol at a restaurant and continued to drink

The experiment worked for Bethany Linville. Holding up her plastic Easter egg Tuesday morning, she was beaming. “The first egg I found was a purple one, but I wanted a green one, so I went searching for a green one,” the Kansas University sophomore from Wichita said. She found one. It matched her green plastic sunglasses frames and green backpack straps, too.

Q:
Did the University of Connecticut’s 53-41 victory over Butler make for the lowest-scoring championship game ever? It has to have been one of the most boring.
A:
Monday’s title game was the lowest-scoring since 82 total points were scored in 1949 when Kentucky beat Oklahoma State 46-36. The Bulldogs set a record for offensive futility, making only 18.8 percent of their shots from the field Monday, the lowest percentage ever in a championship game.

Kansas marked its sesquicentennial — its 150th birthday — on Jan. 29, 2011. To commemorate the occasion, LJWorld.com has created a special feature celebrating our state. To learn more about Kansas’ 150 years of history, click the link on the LJWorld.com home page, or visit LJWorld.com/Kansas150. There, the Journal-World has compiled stories from our reporters and from the Wichita Eagle about the state’s sesquicentennial. The stories cover a wide range of Kansas history, from the campaign to restore the prairie cabin where “Home on the Range” was originally written, to a Lawrence man
who decided to take a bowling tour of the state. Also on our sesquicentennial website, you can look through hundreds of photos that illustrate Kansas from the early days of statehood to the recent past. The photos show life on the prairie, the 1930s Dust Bowl and Kansas aviation manufacturing during World War II. The photos also follow the lives of famed Kansas figures such as Carrie Nation, Amelia Earhart and Dwight Eisenhower. And although the state’s actual birthday has already passed, the celebrations haven’t; take a look at a calendar listing events taking place throughout the year. — Casey Miles

City commissioners approve tax break for Treanor relocation By Chad Lawhorn
“

quarters of a Lawrence architecture firm won a key tax break from Lawrence city commissioners Tuesday. Commissioners at their weekly meeting agreed to provide a tax rebate to Treanor Architects for a project it is planning for the former Strong’s Office Supply building at 1040 Vt. “What we have here is a dilapidated building in downtown,” City Commissioner Aron Cromwell said. “We don’t have many of those, but this is one, and we need to work to take care of it.” The city agreed to use the Neighborhood Revitalization Act, which will allow Treanor to receive a rebate on a portion of the new property taxes that will be generated by the project. The city, county and school district will continue to receive all the taxes they currently receive from the property. But as the project is built and the tax bill rises, Treanor will receive a rebate for the next 10 years. The rebate will start at 95 percent in 2012 and gradually fall to 20 percent by 2021.

“These are the types of issues that need to be brought to the forefront,” Cromer said. A flier for the meeting states, “While we do not support unjust discrimination for persons choosing LGBT lifestyle, we do believe the tradition of natural law must be respected and remain the order. This is why we have chosen to educate the com-

people attended last year’s seminar. “What this does is not only a reminder that we have to be thoughtful and cautious in what we do,” Wing said, “but it also gives these students permission to start a dialogue on what’s healthy and what isn’t healthy. And that they’ve got to watch out for each other.” She said organizers have asked greek chapters to have at least 20 percent of their members attend, but it’s open to all KU students. Jason Wren was living in the SAE house as a pledge because he was no longer allowed to live in a KU residence hall because he’d violated the university’s alcohol policy. According to the autopsy, his blood-alcohol content was 0.362 percent, which is more than four times the legal limit to drive in Kansas. The plaintiffs argued in court last year the chapter had not changed its practices enough regarding underage drinking since Wren’s death. But attorneys for the frater-
— City Commissioner Aron Cromwell After 2021, the project will not receive a rebate. The tax rebate did draw an objection from one member of the public. Jim Mullins, a Lawrence resident and field director for Americans for Prosperity, said he questioned whether the city was properly using the Neighborhood Revitalization Act. “The state gave us this tool to clean up shabby or blighted neighborhoods,” Mullins said. “Not to help a developer get a tax break without adding one new job to the community.” Mullins objected to the fact that the rebate was being offered even though Treanor is proposing only to move employees from two existing offices in Lawrence to downtown. But commissioners said bringing more employees to downtown is an important way to strengthen the overall health of downtown. Commissioners, however, delayed a decision on anoth-
er part of the project. Commissioners said they wanted more information from city staff about the downtown parking system before agreeing to convert a two-hour city parking lot into a 10-hour lot near the 1040 Vt. site. Treanor is asking for the lot to be converted to a 10-hour time limit to accommodate employees. The company also is asking to buy 50 long-term parking passes from the city for $195 each, with assurances that the price of the permits won’t increase for at least 10 years. The newly elected City Commission is expected to hear the parking issue at its meeting April 19. The Douglas County Commission and the Lawrence school board each will have to consider whether they want to be part of the tax rebate program. Both are expected to take up the issue later this month.
munity about the consequences created through ordinances that defy the natural order of human sexuality.” Speaking at the meeting will be representatives of several groups that opposed the Manhattan ordinance. They include Awaken Manhattan, the Alliance Defense Fund, Concerned Women for America and Kansas Family Policy Council. The Lawrence/Douglas County chapter of the Kansas Equality Coalition wants Lawrence leaders to include
gender identity in its anti-discrimination policy. Thomas Witt, chairman of the Kansas Equality Coalition, said the addition of gender identity would have positive effects on the community. He said Lawrence has for years prohibited discrimination based on sexual orientation, and that hasn’t hindered businesses or growth. “That should be proof that banning discrimination is good,” he said.
is just as important as receiving.” Look for other projects soon. One group plans to have a giant recess, another has a surprise in store for an entire floor on campus, and a third plans to have a big public mural where people can write messages. Does Pressman ever worry about all this seeming a little, well, hokey? “Constantly,” she said. “The whole field, there’s always some cynicism out there, like who cares about happiness?”
But that’s why she does scientific research on it — to show that happiness matters on a physiological level. For students like Cody Wilson, a senior from Dallas, it’s a welcome change from other classes. “Usually, when I leave a psychology class, I think, God, there’s so much wrong with me,” he said. “It’s nice to start to see the good part of yourself.”
nity and housing corporation said the chapter has taken proper steps, including expelling nearly two dozen active members after an April 2010 alcohol violation. The parties last month had indicated to District Judge Michael Malone that a settlement was in the works. Tuesday’s statement was the first indication publicly from the sides the suit was resolved, but court personnel said Tuesday nothing had yet been officially filed in district court regarding the settlement. Tuesday’s statement did
not detail any terms of the settlement. When reached Tuesday, Jay Wren declined to comment. “The parties have no further comment on the resolution of this case,” the statement said.

AREA ELECTION RESULTS Editor’s note: All results listed are unofficial.
Eudora City Council, school board Six candidates ran for three spots on the Eudora City Council. Ruth Hughs, Kenneth Massey and John Fiore were elected Tuesday, accounting for nearly 65 percent of votes. Hughs led all candidates with 408 votes, and Massey came in second with 268. Fiore edged Jerry Trober Sr. for the third spot, grabbing 243 votes to Trober’s 231. Maria Nelson and Chris Fiedler earned 201 and 65 votes, respectively. Five candidates ran for four at-large positions on the Eudora School Board. Joe Pyle (419 votes), Belinda Rehmer (418), Mark Chrislip (393) and Daniel Dickerson (332) all earned seats on the board. Bryan Maring came in fifth with 290 votes. Of Eudora’s four voting precincts, Eudora City Hall had the fewest registered voters with 780, but the highest turnout at 17.3 percent. Eudora Church of Christ had the most registered to vote at its precinct, 1524, 15.6 percent of whom voted.
Baldwin City Council, school board Four candidates ran to fill three positions in the Baldwin City Council race Tuesday. Jason Mock received the most votes in all three city precincts with a total of 354, good for 31 percent of the total votes. Coy Weege came in second with nearly 27 percent of the vote, 307 in all. Shane Starky nabbed the last council seat by edging out Kenneth Hayes by just two votes, 241-239. In the City Council race’s three precincts, voter turnout was 14.6 percent at Baldwin Elementary School, which has the most registered voters with 1,500. Nineteen percent of the 1,240 voters registered at Baldwin City Fire Station turned out, along with 19.7 percent of voters at the Baldwin City American Legion, where 1,368 voters are registered. Tony Wedel earned the atlarge position on the Baldwin City School Board with 423 votes, which was 42.9 percent of the total. Wedel defeated Joshua Mihesuah (352 votes) and Robin Bayer (211). Nick Harris defeated Shawn Nelson 610-354 to fill the District 1 position on the city’s school board. Sandy Chapman edged out Ed Kite 431-428 to take the District 2 position. John Dunbar finished last in that race with 125 votes. The District 3 position went to Chad Christie, who defeated Slade Dillon 562-430.
Tonganoxie City Council A new face will be joining the Tonganoxie City Council. Challenger Dennis Bixby and incumbent Bill Peak were elected to the council Tuesday, beating out incumbent Paula Crook, who was elected in 2007. Bixby, a former construction project manager who now is self-employed, was the top vote-getter with 426, while Peak, who is retired from the U.S. Postal Service, had 420 and Crook, who works for Meals on Wheels, with 356. The three candidates were vying for two open seats. Peak was elected for the first time Tuesday. Mayor Jason Ward appointed him in 2010 to fill the position previously held by Tom Putthoff, who resigned in August. Mayor Jason Ward ran unopposed Tuesday. Results won’t be final until Leavenworth County commissioners canvass the votes, a process set to start at 9 a.m. Friday at the Leavenworth County Courthouse.
is administrative secretary at Tonganoxie Elementary School, will take the at-large position currently held by Mildred McMillon, a longtime board member who also served at one time on the state board. McMillon announced in December she would not seek re-election. Running unopposed in the election were incumbents Kathy Baragary, Leana Leslie and Diane Truesdell.
Tonganoxie school bond issue Tonganoxie USD 464 voters soundly said “no” to a $26.9 million bond issue Tuesday. The bond issue, which if passed would have funded a new intermediate school as well as high school and elementary school upgrades, failed with “no” votes making up about 62 percent of the total, 1,111-629. A group opposed to the current bond issue, The Committee for the Kids, organized in the final weeks before the election with the message that the district needed a new elementary school but should not use the proposed plan. Proponents of the bond issue, the Quality for Kids campaign, contended that renovations at the high school were necessary for security purposes in addition to overcrowding at the elementary school. The last bond issue, which funded a new middle school and upgrades to the high school and elementary school, passed in 2004. The last bond issue before 2004 was in the late 1980s when a new junior high — now part of the high school campus — was built.

Spending talks continue with tone of persistence By David Espo Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON — Prodded by an insistent President Barack Obama, Congress’ top two lawmakers sought to reinvigorate compromise talks Tuesday aimed at cutting tens of billions in federal spending and averting a partial government shutdown Friday at midnight. There was at least a hint of flexibility, accompanied by sharply partisan attacks and an outburst of shutdown brinksmanship. According to Democrats, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, suggested at a White House meeting that fellow Republicans might be able to accept a deal with $40 billion in cuts. That’s more than
substantive progress, there was a marked change in tone afterward. Spokesmen for the two issued identical statements, shorn of partisan bickering, saying the two leaders “had a productive discussion. They agreed to continue working on a budget solution.” Obama stepped forcefully into the dispute, at times sounding like an exasperated parent. He convened a meeting at the White House with the chief congressional antagonists, rejected a Republican proposal for an interim bill with sharp cuts and then announced Boehner and Reid would meet later in the day. If they can’t sort out their differences, he said, “I want them back here tomorrow.”
negotiators had been eyeing but less than the House seeks. The speaker’s off ice declined comment, and Boehner issued a statement saying, “We can still avoid a shutdown, but Democrats are going to need to get serious about cutting spending — and soon.” For his part, Senate Majority leader Harry Reid sounded an accusatory note. “I hope the Republicans do what the country needs, not what they believe the tea party wants,” he said at the Capitol. “I mean, it seems that every step we take, it’s something just to poke us in the eye,” he said. Boehner and Reid met privately later in the day. While there was no indication of
And if that doesn’t work, he added, “we’ll invite them again the day after that. And I will have my entire team available to work through the details of getting a deal done.” Obama, eager to regain the confidence of independent voters as he seeks a new term, said the American public expects that its leaders “act like grown-ups, and when we are in negotiations like this, that everybody gives a little bit, compromises a little bit in order to do the people’s business.” At issue is legislation needed to keep the government running through the Sept. 30 end of the budget year, and a desire by all sides to avoid being blamed politically if there is a shutdown.
LIBYA
Rebel leader voices discontent with NATO By Ben Hubbard and Hadeel Al-Shalchi Associated Press Writers
BENGHAZI, LIBYA — A rebel military leader lashed out at NATO Tuesday, saying it was falling short in its mission to protect Libyan civilians. The alliance said ruler Moammar Gadhafi’s forces position heavy weapons in populated areas, preventing some airstrikes. Abdel-Fattah Younis, chief of staff for the rebel military and Gadhafi’s former interior minister, said he was asking the opposition’s leadership council to take their grievances to the U.N. Security Council, which authorized force in Libya to stop government troops from wiping out the anti-Gadhafi uprising that began Feb. 15. NATO forces “don’t do anything” even though the United Nations gave them the right to act, Younis said. He said bureaucracy means that NATO strikes sometimes come eight hours after rebels’ have communicated targets. “The people will die, and this crime will be on the face of the international commu-

LIBYAN REBEL MILITARY LEADER Abdel-Fattah Younis speaks to the media at a hotel in Benghazi, Libya, on Tuesday. Younis lashed out at NATO saying it's not doing enough to protect opponents of Moammar Gadhafi and complained about what he said is a bureaucratic process that means NATO takes hours to respond to events on the battlefield. nity forever. What is NATO doing?” Younis said. NATO last week took control over the international airstrikes that began March
19 as a U.S.-led mission. The airstrikes thwarted Gadhafi’s efforts to crush the rebellion in the North African nation he has ruled for more than four decades, but the rebels remain outnumbered and outgunned and have had diff iculty pushing into governmentheld territory even with air support. The government pushed back rebel forces in a strategic oil town to the east Tuesday, while rebels claimed they fended off an attack by Gadhafi’s forces in one of a string of opposition-controlled towns southwest of Tripoli, the capital. The rebels have maintained control of much of the eastern half of Libya since early in the uprising, while Gadhafi has clung to much of the west. Gadhafi has been putting out feelers for a cease-fire, but refuses to step down as the opposition is demanding. On Tuesday his government announced a new foreign minister: Abdelati al-Obeidi, who has been in Europe seeking a diplomatic solution. He replaces Moussa
N.Y. police: Missing prostitute not among remains discovered on beach O AK B EACH , N.Y. (A P ) — Detectives searching for a missing New Jersey prostitute have uncovered the remains of eight possible victims of a serial killer along a remote New York beach highway, but said Tuesday that none is the woman they have been looking for. “I’m just shocked,” Sherre Gilbert said in a brief telephone interview after learning from Suffolk County detectives that her sister, Shannan Gilbert, was not among the eight bodies found along Ocean Parkway on Long Island in recent months. “I am still hoping for the best outcome.” Shannan Gilbert, 24, who worked as an escort, was last seen last spring in Oak Beach, near where the latest remains were discovered, after apparently meeting a client she had booked through Craigslist. The bodies of four other prostitutes, all of whom advertised their services on Craigslist and were in their 20s, were found along the same highway by police searching for Gilbert in December. A fifth body was located last week about a mile from where the first four were found and police on Monday said they uncovered the remains of three more people. Police have not identified any of the most recent victims and have not definitively linked them to the remains found in December. Detectives suspect a serial killer but so far have no suspects. The four dead prostitutes were found amid a 4-foot-tall tangle of sea grass punctuated by scrubby pine trees. Authorities have identified them as Amber Lynn Costello, 27, originally of Wilmington, N.C.; Megan Waterman, 22, of Scarborough, Maine; Maureen Brainard-Barnes, 28, of Norwich, Conn.; and Melissa Barthelemy, 24, of Buffalo, N.Y.
Although off icers have searched the area several times since December, they intensified a search of the 7.5mile area on Monday. After searching almost exclusively on the north side of Ocean Parkway, which leads to the popular Jones Beach, police
academy cadets, K-9 units and other investigators moved to the south side of the roadway on Tuesday, searching a wide swath of sandy beach down to the ocean. Police said their search of the area for additional victims would resume today.

Koussa, who defected last week. Al-Obeidi’s deputy Khaled Kaim said the opposition council doesn’t represent most Libyans and that alQaida is exploiting the crisis. He accused nations supporting the airstrikes of supporting terrorism “by arming the militias, by providing them with materials, and the coalition’s decision to starve 85 percent of the Libyan population, while there was another course for solving this crisis, which was the political course.” Kaim said “history will not forgive” Libyans who sought foreign help to change the regime. “People will reject them whether they are with or against Moammar Gadhafi,” he said. Some nations, including the U.S., have considered arming the rebels but have not done so. Brig. Gen. Mark Van Uhm of NATO said Tuesday that airstrikes have so far destroyed 30 percent of Gadhafi’s military capacity.

Downtown approach Patience may not be enough to preserve Lawrence’s attractive downtown.
I
t’s natural and should be the goal for most any community to have its central business district be healthy, attractive and inviting. Those who have lived in Lawrence for some time are well aware of the extended debate some years ago about a “cornfield mall” proposed for South Iowa Street along with subsequent proposals for a major mall development in downtown Lawrence. Both plans were rejected as a means of protecting downtown. Today, there are more retail stores on South Iowa Street than were proposed in the rejected blueprint for a cornfield mall. In fact, there is more retail business in that area than in the entire downtown. This matter has been brought to the forefront by a recent statement by Dean Palos, a former Lawrence city planner who played a role in preserving or protecting Lawrence’s cramped and historic downtown in the 1970s an early ’80s. In a Topeka news story, Palos, now director of planning for Johnson County, recalled the differing opinions about Lawrence’s downtown. He was in Topeka to discuss the revitalization of that city’s downtown. Palos said, “There’s no silver bullet. There’s no one thing to do. It’s better to go slow and incrementally. You have to be patient. Lawrence is a testament to people to be patient.” He added, “There was a lot of dissension in Lawrence. Lawrence went through a long time of fractured relationships. But there was a strong sense of self-preservation.” Palos said Lawrence decided downtown would remain the core of retail business for the city and Douglas County. This may have been the goal in the 1970s and ’80s, but it would be wrong today to suggest that downtown is the retail “core” of Lawrence. In many respects, Lawrence faces the same challenges today that it did 30 or so years ago. It continues to struggle to keep downtown attractive, vibrant, safe and lined with successful retail businesses. There are too many vacancies. Too many once-sound businesses are closing or moving to other locations. Downtown Lawrence does not have the space or parking to accommodate even one large “box” store, like those located on South Iowa. That being the case, downtown needs to provide a different shopping draw. One way to do that is to attract stores that offer products and services not found in the usual large shopping area, often dominated by retail chains, stores that make shopping in downtown Lawrence fun both for local residents and for people from out of town. New residential projects may increase downtown’s vitality and boost the need for some businesses that provide basic services. Again, there isn’t room for a major supermarket, but how about a good deli or maybe a Walgreen’s or CVS that offers a broad variety of basic merchandise? City officials have used various tactics to protect the downtown business district, and Massachusetts Street has been designated by one magazine as one of the nation’s best. Nevertheless, downtown Lawrence is not posting the retail sales it once enjoyed, and there is no room for complacency. Just how long will it take for Palos’ “patience” to produce the desired results in downtown Lawrence?

CEO salaries are moral issue During the 2008 presidential campaign when candidate Barack Obama told “Joe the Plumber” that he wanted to “spread the wealth around,” it sounded to a lot of conservatives like socialism: “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need,” in the words of Karl Marx. There is a kind of wealth spreading, however, that ought to meet the political litmus test of conservative Republicans, liberal Democrats and radical Independents. At a time of high unemployment, too many layoffs and too few new jobs in the private sector (230,000 jobs were created last month, according to the Labor Department, but unemployment continues to officially hover at just under 9 percent and Gallup calculates it, without seasonal adjustment, at 10.0 percent), it is disheartening to see so many CEOs having recovered enough from their personal recession to pay themselves salaries and benefits that would have shamed the superrich in America’s Gilded Age. USA Today reported last week in a story on CEO compensation that “three-quarters of CEOs got raises — and, in many cases, the increases were substantial.” Employee pay, on the other hand, effectively stalled. Median CEO pay, reported the newspaper, increased 27 percent last year, meaning the average CEO received $9 million in 2010. Even in a struggling economy, I wager most people could get by on $9 million a year. In a strange twist, General Electric, whose chairman Jeffrey Immelt now advises President Obama on job creation, paid no taxes last year, despite earning $14 billion. But that’s another column. Unlike my liberal friends, I don’t obsess about how much money other people make. What-

One doesn’t have to be “a liberal who believes in income redistribution to see the unfairness in disproportionate pay.”
ever compensation someone can negotiate is f ine with me. Whether a person is “worth” their pay is a subjective matter and open to debate. The moral issue in executive pay is whether management deserves these high salaries while employees are laid off, or denied pay increases. Last April, the Baltimore Sun reported that Stanley-Black and Decker in Towson, Md., announced plans to lay off 4,000 of its 38,000 employees. Yet, according to USA Today, StanleyBlack and Decker CEO John Lundgren made more than $32 million in 2010, up 253.1 percent from the previous year. U.S. Bancorp Chairman Richard Davis was paid $16.1 million in 2010, a 143.0 percent compensation boost. In January, U.S. Bancorp announced that 64 workers in its Milwaukee office would be cut. If I were a CEO being paid such astronomical amounts and people were being laid off, or struggling in a recession, at least in part due to the lack of pay increases, I would
feel morally obligated to take less money. I would ask the chief financial officer of my company to share some of my wealth with loyal employees so that they could continue caring for their families. One doesn’t have to be a liberal who believes in income redistribution to see the unfairness in disproportionate pay. Think of the kudos and favorable press coverage that would come to a corporate chief who shared his wealth, rather than lay off employees. It could change not only the media coverage of big business, but also the way the public perceives the super rich. Heck, some of them might even start voting Republican! Five CEOs saw a slight decline in compensation, according to the USA Today/GovernanceMetrics international data, but they still earned more than most lottery winners receive. President Obama has spoken of some of these CEOs as not “needing” the money they get. Again, that is a subjective judgment. What he should be doing is shaming those companies that lay off workers while paying their top management such exorbitant salaries and benefits. Stockholders ought to demand that no competent worker should be laid off if a CEO earns above a certain amount of money. Stockholders also have a moral responsibility beyond the dividends they receive. Making money is a noble American objective, making a living is a nobler one. Corporations ought to have enough decency and compassion to make sure no worker is let go solely to increase the bottom line or pad the boss’s pockets with more money than he (or she) can ever hope to spend in a lifetime.
Mike Hoeflich it’s fair to say “thatI think the 2012 presidential
campaign will be fought, in part — perhaps, in larger part than ever before — on the Internet and in social media.” But there is something quite different about the upcoming campaign. In the 2008 presidential race, the Obama campaign team had no real competition in exploiting new media. That has changed. In particular, Sarah Palin and the various supporters of the tea party movement are quite experienced in and expert at using social media. Anyone who believes that the tea party movement is no more than a bunch of senior citizens and crazies need only look at the movement’s main website at http://teaparty.net. The site is a highly sophisticated political site which uses flash maps, online donations, Facebook and Twitter. Tea party organizers have
Musical treat To the editor: Kudos to “The Music Man” cast, crew and director. How many opportunities does one have to sit with a smile on your face, tapping your toes for two and a half hours — while watching your friends and neighbors on the stage? I marveled at what this group of people created with their hard work, for our enjoyment. The familiar music, the talented cast, orchestra, costuming and set were perfect in my eyes. At a time when the arts have been challenged, I am so proud of what this community has accomplished through strong music and drama programs in the schools, supplemented by the activities at the Lawrence Arts Center, for intergenerational experiences like this one. I feel lucky to be a part of this. Give yourself a treat and see this wonderful family production. Joan Golden, Lawrence

To the editor: On the anniversary of the new health care law being passed, my congressperson, Lynn Jenkins, said, “Simply put, Obamacare destroys jobs, increases taxes, expands government control and increases the cost of health care for all Americans.” Really? In the last week, projections of lifetime medical expenses for retirees have gone down for the first time. Fidelity lowered the cost from a quar— Cal Thomas is a columnist for Tri- ter of a million to $230,000, a bune Media Services. slight decrease, but one that bucks the 6 percent average increase annually since 2002. The reason, Fidelity reports, is due to Obama’s health care overhaul, closing the doughnut hole and factors in premiums, co-payments and deductibles relative to the overhaul. Late last week the Labor Department reported an unemployment rate of 8.8 percent and the creation of over 200,000 new private sector jobs. Both statistics reflect an improving trend. Opposition is mixed, with some disappointed it did not go further, like me, a supporter of universal care as proposed in HR 676. The changes allowing uninsured children to stay on their parents’ policies until 26 and prohibiting children under 19 being denied coverage for pre-existing conditions would have helped our family with health care costs. Doubtless, it is a confusing program and needs some revision, but overall it appears to be helping a lot of Americans with improved health care. Perhaps Rep. Jenkins should take a less partisan view on this subject and do more to accentuate the positive in the reform. Ace Hickey, Lawrence
Campaigns invade cyberspace After the last presidential campaign I wrote a column in which I called President Barack Obama the first “cyber” president. In using this term I was referring to the fact that then-candidate Obama and his campaign team had made far more sophisticated use of the Internet and social media like Twitter than either his predecessors or his opponents had done. President Obama used the Internet, Twitter and other digital media both to put out frequent updates on his campaign and to bring crowds to live campaign events. In some cases, such as the announcement of his choice of then-Sen. Joe Biden as his vice presidential running mate, President Obama contacted more than one million supporters in this way. This week, President Obama has announced the beginning of his reelection campaign. Already many of his senior staff have begun to establish the organization and strategy for the 2012 race. I think that there is little doubt that one major part of that strategy will be focused on an even greater use of the Internet and social media. In just the few years that have passed from the last presidential campaign, social media like Facebook and Twitter have grown enormously in both size and importance. Internet political blogs have multiplied and extended their influence to more traditional media like television.
PUBLIC FORUM
been quite effective in using Twitter to bring people together for rallies. In short, individuals and groups which will form part of the opposition to President Obama’s reelection bid are now as sophisticated in the use of the new media as the president and his campaign are. The advantage enjoyed by the president in the 2008 campaign may well have disappeared. There’s also a second new force on the Internet which may have some impact on the 2012 presidential campaign: Wikileaks. The disruptive ability of Wikileaks was demonstrated quite clearly last year when the site released thousands of “classified” American diplomatic memoranda. Since that incident, Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, has been hounded by British and American authorities. Will Mr. Assange and his colleagues be able to disrupt the 2012 campaign by acquiring and leaking documents from either the Democratic or Republican campaigns? I think it’s fair to say that the 2012 presidential campaign will be fought, in part — perhaps, in larger part than ever before — on the Internet and in social media. How this will change the nature of the campaign and of American politics in general remains to be seen. — Mike Hoeflich, a distinguished professor in the Kansas University School of Law, writes a regular column for the Journal-World.

KU MEN’S BASKETBALL
Selby in Vegas, hasn’t declared By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Kansas University freshman guard Josh Selby hasn’t declared for the 2011 NBA Draft ... yet. Tuesday’s news that the 6foot-2 Baltimore native is in Las Vegas working out at Impact Basketball with famed trainer Joe Abunasser, seems to indicate he’s leaning heavily in the direction of playing for pay, however. “He’s in Vegas working out. He has no agent. He hasn’t declared for the draft. He hasn’t done any-
thing except work out,” Selby’s mom, Maeshon Witherspoon, said Tuesday in a phone interview. “There’s been no decision. He could come back to school. He could leave,” she added. Witherspoon would not say how long Selby would remain in Vegas. Selby remains enrolled in classes at KU. “Coach (Bill) Self and I agreed on a time limit. When the time limit is up, we’ll let you know,” Witherspoon said. Self said on Tuesday night that
he is OK with Selby working out this week at Abunasser’s training facility. Impact Basketball’s official website refers to Abunasser as “the world’s top basketball trainer and trainer to the pros.” College players must pay their own way to work out at such a facility. “Josh went to Las Vegas with our permission to work out a few days to get a feel for where he’d potentially be (in 2011 NBA Draft). It’s something we did not discourage. We are fine with it,” Self said.
“He has not declared (for draft) nor is he committed to an agent. We said he could have a few days to get a better feel for where he is by working out with some folks in Vegas. “As far as schoolwork, he is OK there. He has put himself in a position he could afford to miss a few days. He will need to get back by next week,” Self added. At least one national news reporter believes Selby is on his way to the NBA.

LAWRENCE HIGH’S AARON GILE HEADS FOR HOME in the fifth inning. Gile hit a two-run double in the inning and the Lions defeated Olathe North, 7-2, on Tuesday at LHS.
LHS wins despite flat start By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer
Early on this season, Lawrence High senior first baseman Aaron Gile has found himself swinging at bad pitches. Curveballs in the dirt. Pitches off the plate. But after hitting a key two-RBI double in the fifth inning in the Lions’ 7-2 win against Olathe North on Tuesday at LHS, Gile recognized that the hit could help him get out of his hitI thought ting funk. “It felt good we were flat to f inally get early.

It put LHS up, 4-2, and the Lions added three more runs in the inning to pull away from the Eagles. Coach Brad Stoll wouldn’t call Gile’s early struggles a slump. “I think he was swinging at some pitches that aren’t his kind of pitches, that aren’t in his nitro zone,” Stoll said. “Today, he finally got some pitches and was more disciplined at the plate.” Stoll said he wasn’t happy with how his team started the game, playing to a 2-2 tie after four innings. “I thought we were flat early,” Stoll said. “I’m not real sure why you’d be flat on a day like this.” Things started to turn around in the top of the fifth inning, when junior pitcher Cameron Solko came on to replace starter Jake Johnson. Solko struck out three of the first five batters he faced, holding the Eagles hitless in the last three innings. “He just went at guys,” Stoll said. “That’s the biggest challenge

FREE STATE’S PRESTON SCHENCK DRIVES in a run. The Firebirds routed Olathe East, 13-3, on Tuesday at FSHS.
Firebirds trounce Hawks, but aren’t perfect By Ben Ward Journal-World Sports Writer
If coach Mike Hill is right about his Free State High baseball team, the rest of the Sunflower League — and Class 6A programs in Kansas — have quite a bit to worry about. Because after the Firebirds throttled Olathe East, 13-3 in six innings, on Tuesday evening at FSHS, Hill and the boys were only moderately pleased with their outing. “You win 13-3 and it looks like a
great performance,” Hill said. “But there were a few things underneath that we’ve got to correct to become the kind of team we want to be at the end.” There was a first-inning error that led to an unearned run, a few wild pitches after strikeouts, and a few missed signs, as Hill pointed out. Aside from that, Cody Kukuk struck out 12 in five innings and the Firebirds pounded out 13 hits, including four straight to open their four-run first inning.
FSHS (4-0) scored two more runs in the second, five more in the third, and ended the game with two in the sixth — a home run by Montana Samuels and a sacrifice fly by Joe Dineen. Colin Toalson doubled twice and scored three runs, Lee McMahon had three singles, and Kukuk had two hits, including a bases clearing triple in the third. The Hawks (1-3) also didn’t help their cause by committing four errors, but all — except a handful — of FSHS’s 13 hits were crushed.
“We were able to get some balls in the air,” said Samuels, who also doubled in a run. “Early, the wind was blowing out really hard, which is nice to have. But we were able to get pitches we were able to hit and put good contact on the ball.” When he wasn’t blowing hitters away with his fastball or freezing them with his curve, Kukuk, at times, struggled with his command. Kukuk (3-0) walked three and Please see FIREBIRDS, page 4B

QB Berglund plans to watch part of spring practices By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
Berglund will not participate in spring practices, but will be in town to watch for a couple of weeks
Three practices into spring drills, the Kansas University football program received some good news Tuesday. Brock Berglund, the threestar quarterback from Highlands Ranch, Colo., who graduated from Valor Christian High last December, enrolled and began taking classes at KU in January and returned home in early March because of “personal circumstances,” told the Jour-
nal-World, via text message, that he would be in town to watch a portion of spring practice. Originally expected to miss the entire spring, Berglund said Tuesday he planned to come to Lawrence to be with the team Wednesday through Saturday for the next two weeks. “I’ll be there to watch, learn and to be with my teammates as a part of the Jayhawk football family,” Berglund said. When he arrives, Berglund will be competing with returning quarterbacks Quinn Mecham, a
senior, and Jordan Webb, a sophomore. His presence this spring, though not as beneficial as if he were actually participating, could help his chances in the race to become KU’s starting QB. “Absolutely,” KU coach Turner Gill said on signing day in February of Berglund having a chance to win the job as KU’s starting quarterback. “All four of the (members of the Class of 2011) who are (enrolled in classes at KU) right now have a slightly better chance because they’ve already gotten acclimated with
the campus and also to their teammates and our coaching staff. They’re six months ahead of the guys who will be coming in later. It doesn’t mean that they’re always going to respond in the right way, but they’ll have a better chance. They’ll have a better chance of not just competing for a job, but competing for a starting job.” Berglund, 6-foot-4, 205 pounds, is the 13th-ranked dualthreat quarterback in the country and the No. 3 player from the Class of 2011 in Colorado. He led
Valor Christian to back-to-back state titles and, last fall, was named the Colorado 4A Player of the Year after throwing for 2,150 yards and rushing for 952 more. He signed with KU after originally committing to Colorado and then backing out on that oral commitment when CU fired Dan Hawkins. Known for having abundant conf idence in his abilities, Berglund said he did not expect anything to be handed to him at Please see FOOTBALL, page 5B

Masters talk centers on Mickelson AUGUSTA, GA. (AP) — He is the talk of the Masters, and for good reason. No other player can top his record at Augusta National over the last decade, with three green jackets, eight finishes in the top five and a signature moment just about every year. That guy used to be Tiger Woods. Now it’s Phil Mickelson. It goes beyond Mickelson being the defending champion, listed for the f irst time as the betting favorite from London to Las Vegas, and at No. 3 in the world being the highest-ranked American for the first time in his career.
Just listen to some of the players. “It seems that everyone has pretty much got Mickelson in the green jacket Sunday evening and there’s not much use in turning up at this point,” U.S. Open champion Graeme Mickelson McDowell said with a small measure of sarcasm. “He’s a great player around Augusta, and if you finish ahead of him, you’ve got a decent chance.”
PGA champion Martin Kaymer, ranked No. 1 in the world, was asked who is the more dominant player at the Masters. “I think Phil,” he replied. And here’s what one player had to say about Woods, a four-time Masters champion. “I don’t think he’ll finish in the top five,” Ian Poulter said. “The shots he was hitting at Doral, they were very inconsistent. You can’t hit shots like that on this golf course and get away with it. I don’t think you want to rely on your short game that much around this place.” Woods hasn’t been chopping it
KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Frank Martin says he’s happy coaching basketball at Kansas State. Still, in a radio interview on Tuesday, the South Florida native indicated he would listen if Miami calls. Martin, who’s had four successful seasons at Kansas State in his first job as a head coach, was born and raised in Miami and was a well-known high school coach in the area. Martin said no one from any other school has called him about a job. “I’ve got a great job. I work with great people,” he said in an interview on a syndicated radio show hosted by Tim Brando. “I look at it like this: 10 years ago as we speak, I was a Div. I unemployed assistant basketball coach collecting no paychecks, Martin having no idea how I was going to pay my rent or my son’s day care bill. Ten years later, I’m at a great place.” Martin was the Big 12 coach of the year in 2010 and led the Wildcats to the Elite Eight. This year, after a rocky start that forced him to change his offense in January, Kansas State finished strong and made the NCAA Tournament for the third straight year. “If people want to throw our name out there, I look at that as a compliment and I look at that as being lucky and fortunate that I’m in a good place right now and that people out there respect what we’ve done,” he said. “But, I haven’t talked to anybody. In this business, it’s hard to ever sit back and say, ’Never say never,’ because then you get called a liar. “But I’m extremely happy. I’m not going to tell you there’s never going to be change, but I’m at peace where I’m at right now.” Volatile, outspoken and highly animated on the sideline, Martin is very popular with Kansas State fans who appreciate that he’s brought the program out of the doldrums. They especially like that he’s beaten Kansas twice, including this season when the hated Jayhawks were No. 1. Bramlage Coliseum is frequently sold out. He signed a five-year contract extension last year that would average out to about $1.5 million annually. But his top players, Jacob Pullen and Curtis Kelly, will be gone next year and he faces a rebuilding job. Miami, in contrast, does not draw well. But Martin, whose mother fled Cuba with her family in the early 1960s, speaks fluent Spanish and recruits in South Florida and the Caribbean. Neither Martin nor athletic director John Currie have returned calls to The Associated Press. A school spokesman said Martin was “out of pocket” and Currie was traveling. Late Tuesday, the school issued the following statement: “We do not comment on any speculative situations.

It was a surprise moment during Tuesday’s victory rally before about 7,500 rabid UConn fans who came to the arena to celebrate Monday night’s 53-41 win over Butler, and chanted “Kemba Walker,” and “One more year.”
Frosh Richmond leaving Illinois CHAMPAIGN, ILL. — Freshman Forward Jereme Richmond has declared for the NBA Draft after one year at Illinois, ending a rocky college career for the highly-touted hoops recruit. The school said Tuesday that Richmond is working out in Chicago to get ready for the June 23 draft but hasn’t hired an agent, a move that could allow him to remain a college player. But the announcement made it clear he’s left Illinois.
Knight gets fresh start at Lamar BEAUMONT, TEXAS — Pat Knight is getting a fresh start at Lamar. The son of Hall of Famer Bob Knight was introduced as the new coach of the Cardinals on Tuesday, less than a month after he was fired by Texas Tech. The 40-year-old Knight replaces Steve Roccaforte, who was fired after going 76-78 in five years. The Cardinals finished 13-17 and 79 in the Southland Conference to tie for ninth place last season.
NFL League, players going to court MINNEAPOLIS — The NFL lockout is about to head to court. With the lockout at three weeks and no end in sight, attorneys for the NFL and its lockedout players will go before a federal judge today in the first round of their fight over the future of the $9 billion business — including the 2011 season. The players — with stars like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees among the plaintiffs and retirees and yet-to-play rookies joining them in support — are asking for an immediate end to the lockout on the basis of “irreparable harm” to their careers.

Fire trucks met the plane.
BASEBALL Bonds’ prosecution rests SAN FRANCISCO — A federal judge ruled jurors in the Barry Bonds trial may not hear a freshly rediscovered recording of two key witnesses — ridiculed by the defense as a “miracle tape” — as prosecutors rested their case 1 against the home-run king Tuesday after 2 ⁄2 weeks and 25 witnesses. The defense said it planned to call up to six witnesses, including possibly Bonds himself, in a presentation that lawyers projected will start and end Wednesday. If that schedule holds up, closing arguments would take place Thursday morning and the case could go to the jury of eight women and four men later in the day.

NC State turns to Gottfried as next coach RALEIGH, N.C. — Mark Gottfried said all the things North Carolina State fans wanted to hear: He plans to contend for a national championship, be a fixture in the NCAA Tournament and go toe-to-toe with the Wolfpack’s highly ranked rivals. Now he’s got to deliver. “Every job in America has different challenges, obstacles, those things that make the job difficult,” North Carolina’s new men’s Gottfried basketball coach said Tuesday. “I’m not backing down from anybody here, period. We want to win.” NC State has struggled the last five seasons under Sidney Lowe. Gottfried, 47, will look to avoid recent disappointing finishes in the ACC, while beating Duke and North Carolina a little more often. Athletic director Debbie Yow said Gottfried will receive a five-year contract with a guarantee of $1.2 million annually, a deal that includes an automatic two-year extension if he leads N.C. State back to the NCAA Tournament in either of the next two seasons.

2004 — Connecticut’s championship sweep is complete. Led by Diana Taurasi, UConn beats Tennessee 70-61. The victory by the women — their third straight and fourth in five years, makes Connecticut the first Division I basketball school to sweep both titles. 2009 — Tyler Hansbrough, Ty Lawson and North Carolina win a national championship, ending Michigan State’s inspirational run with a 89-72 rout. The Tar Heels lead 55-34 at halftime, breaking a 42year-old title-game record for biggest margin at the break and setting the mark for most points at the half.

TEXAS A&M PLAYERS CELEBRATE with the trophy after their 76-70 victory over Notre Dame. The Aggie women won their first national title on Tuesday in Indianapolis.
Texas A&M topples Irish for 1st NCAA title INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Scoring at will, grabbing boards and making a key steal, Danielle Adams saved her best game for the biggest stage and gave Texas A&M its first national championship. Adams scored 22 of her 30 points in a dominating second half and answered the Fighting Irish basket for basket Tuesday night to help the Aggies bring a title to the former all-male military academy with a thrilling 76-70 victory over Notre Dame. “I knew they couldn’t stop me inside so that’s what I did, I took it inside,” said Adams, who became the school’s first All-American just a week ago. No one was happier than Gary Blair, the outspoken A&M coach who hadn’t been in the Final Four since 1998 when he was with Arkansas. Blair bluntly said it was a good thing that top powers like Connecticut, Tennessee and Stanford weren’t in the title game. “We don’t give up,” Blair said. “We might not play the prettiest game in the world but it’s good for women’s basketball to see a Texas A&M and a Notre Dame in this game.” And then his Aggies went out and proved him right in front of a pro-Irish crowd. Tyra White added 18 points for A&M, including a huge three-pointer as the shot clock buzzer sounded to put the Aggies up, 73-68, with 1:07 left. She and her teammates then staved off a final, frantic push by the Fighting Irish and their sensational young star guard, Skylar Diggins. The Aggies are a national championship newcomer and bullied their way through the tournament to get to the top. Like Notre Dame, they vanquished their conference rival on the way, beating Baylor in the Dallas regional final after losing to the Lady Bears three times during the season. Adams, who struggled badly against Baylor, was up to the task and then some against Notre Dame, scoring the second-most points ever in a championship game (Sheryl Swoopes had 47 in 1993).

“We did not find an answer for her,” Notre Dame coach Muffet McGraw said. “We had a plan. We just weren’t able to stop her. ... She’s just a great player. She’s got a big body and we couldn’t get around her.” Both teams reached the championship by knocking off two No. 1 seeds. Notre Dame eliminated Tennessee in the regional final, then swept past Connecticut in Sunday night’s national semifinals, the first time one team has taken down those two women’s basketball icons in the same tournament. A&M also had two impressive wins to get here. After beating Baylor, the Aggies edged Stanford on Sunday night. It was the first title game without a No. 1 seed since 1994 and only the second overall. It also was the first final without either Connecticut or Tennessee since Maryland beat Duke in overtime for the 2006 championship. And it turned out to be a good one. After a back-and-forth first half, and with the Aggies trailing, 48-43, early in the second half, Adams simply took over. The 6-foot-1 center scored 10 of the next 13 points for the Aggies to give them a 56-53 lead midway through the second half. Texas A&M then extended the advantage to 6457 behind the two Sydneys — Carter and Colson. But Notre Dame wouldn’t give up, battling back behind Diggins and Devereaux Peters. The Irish scored nine
of the next 11 points to tie the game at 66 on Diggins’ jumper with 3:56 left. Blair went right to Adams on the next two possessions and she delivered, hitting back-to-back layups. Adams hit nine of her first 10 shots in the second half. After Peters’ putback cut it to 70-68, White hit the huge three. Diggins had two free throws with 40.7 seconds left, and the Irish had one last chance after a turnover by the Aggies with 29 seconds remaining. McGraw called her final timeout, but Diggins turned it over in front of the bench. White hit two free throws to seal the win. Diggins finished with 23 points and Peters added 21 and 11 rebounds for Notre Dame (31-8). Diggins, fighting back tears, said the Irish couldn’t handle A&M’s pressure. “We turned it over too much. I don’t know if it was nerves or what,” she said. “We just didn’t handle the pressure.” Indeed, the night belonged to the Aggies. It hasn’t been easy changing attitudes at a university that began as an all-male military school. Some alumni opposed the decision to begin admitting women in 1963, and school administrators didn’t always see the advantage of funding men’s and women’s sports equally when Title IX passed in 1972. By 1994, A&M had earned its first NCAA Tournament bid and immediately reached the regional semifinals, but the program’s reputation remained stagnant until Blair arrived in 2003. The man with the sharp tongue, quick wit and deep Southern drawl found himself at home recruiting Texas’ best players, and teaming up with others in the athletic department to sell the school. Winning the title Tuesday night will certainly help. The Aggies (33-5) have been riding a relentless defense that didn’t allow more than 50 points until Stanford scored 62 in the semifinals.

twice saw a runner advance to first after throwing a wild pitch on the third strike. “I feel like I didn’t have my best stuff,” Kukuk said. “But you just keep working through it, pumping strikes.” Hill left Kukuk on the mound precisely so Kukuk could extend his pitch count and work his way out of jams, and the senior lefty rose to the occasion. Despite loading the bases in the fifth inning, Kukuk settled down and struck out O-East outfielder Scott Freeman to end the threat. “He’s not going to be dynamite every time he steps on the mound,” Hill said. “He was good today. The expectation is he’ll be unhittable and strike everyone out. The thing that pleased me most was what he did at the end.” The Firebirds play at 5:30 p.m. on Monday at Olathe North.

LHS softball splits doubleheader with O-North The Lawrence High softball team won the first game of all three doubleheaders so far this season. All three times, though, the Lions have lost the second game. On Tuesday, the Lions knocked off Olathe North, 3-0, in the first game but fell, 7-2, in the later tilt. Coach Reenie Stogsdill said she thinks a lot of the second-game struggles have to do with pitching.

The Eagles scored three runs in the first inning, and the Lions couldn’t come back. “Once you see a pitcher four or five times through, you should be able to make adjustments and hit. That’s
KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Any sort of four-game winning streak is a big deal in a town where the local team hadn’t won more than three in a row since September 2009. But Melky Cabrera’s RBI single in the 12th inning Tuesday night not only lifted Kansas City past the Chicago White Sox, 7-6, it gave the Royals their fourth straight victory in their final at-bat. During a 4-1 start to the season, the up-and-coming Royals have wiped out a lead in the eighth inning at home, launched a pair of game-ending homers in the ninth and won on Cabrera’s single. In the season opener against the Angels, the only game they’ve lost, Alex Gordon missed a walkoff homer in the ninth by inches. “These first five games have been the funnest five games I ever played in my life,” said Billy Butler, whose two-run homer tied it 6-all in the eighth. “Hopefully we can get off to a good lead and just cruise to a victory.” Cabrera’s single up the middle off Tony Pena (0-1) scored Chris Getz from second and gave K.C. its first back-to-back wins in extra innings since June 30-July 1, 2006. It also gave Cabrera three RBIs. “As long as you win them, that’s all that counts,” manager Ned Yost said. Jeremy Jeffress (1-0) got two outs for the win, capping another standout performance by a bullpen that contains three rookies. The relievers threw six shutout innings after the White Sox scored four in the first off Luke Hochevar and took a 6-4 lead in the sixth. “There is nothing worse than getting four early and giving it right back,” White Sox starter Gavin Floyd said. Chris Sale relieved Floyd to begin the eighth and gave up the tying homer to Butler. The White Sox had a 4-0 lead after Hochevar’s 13th pitch. Juan Pierre got the game started with a triple into rightcenter and Gordon Beckham followed with a single.
with the first and scoring on a single from senior Kasey Waite after the second. Bell’s defense has always been her strength, but Stogsdill has been impressed with B ell’s conf idence at the
plate. B ell told Stogsdill before the season that she was going to contribute with the bat more. “She’s doing it,” Stogsdill said. “She’s like having a coach on the field. She’s a leader. She takes control. She knows what’s going on. That’s what you want out of your catcher. I think she’s the best catcher in the league.” The Eagles put two runners on in the seventh inning, but Massey struck out the final three batters to lock up the victory.
In the second game, the Lions (3-3) left multiple runners on base and couldn’t recover from a 5-0 hole in the third inning. Bell hit a solo home run, but the Lions couldn’t get the bats going. Stogsdill said it was frustrating to drop the second game, mostly because she just hates to lose. “But I keep seeing so many positive things that I think we’re making strides forward,” Stogsdill said. “We’re gonna get there.” Next up is a doubleheader against vaunted Olathe Northwest at 4:15 and 6 p.m. on Thursday at LHS. Stogsdill considers the Ravens the best team in Kansas. But as she told her team after the game, the Ravens have a loss already this season, so they aren’t unbeatable. “We’re going to come out here and give them everything we got,” Stogsdill said.

Missouri State stifles KU By Jesse Newell jnewell@ljworld.com
Kansas coach Ritch Price wasn’t sugar-coating his team’s offensive effort following a 5-1 loss to Missouri State on Tuesday night at Hoglund Ballpark. “The quality of our at-bats was really poor,” Price said. “It’s as bad of an offensive performance as we’ve had in a long time.” The Jayhawks now have scored one run or fewer in 10 of 28 games this season. KU has just 86 runs in 28 games — an average of 3.1 per game. Before Tuesday, the Jayhawks ranked 286th in runs scored per game out of 292 Div. I teams. Against Missouri State, KU mustered just six hits, with its three seniors Brandon Macias, Jimmy Waters and Casey Lytle combining to go 0-for-12 with five strikeouts. “If Waters and Lytle and Macias don’t hit, we’re not going to score,” Price said. “We’re not talented enough 19 in our lineup for that to take place, and that’s a reality.

not being negative. That’s a reality. Those guys have to hit, have to produce with runners in scoring position or we’re
going to be offensively challenged.” KU was part of a breakout performance by Missouri State starter Pierce Johnson. In his previous two starts, Johnson had allowed a combined 14 earned runs in just 81⁄3 innings. He also came in with an earned-run average of 10.48. He didn’t look the part of a back-end starter Tuesday. The right-hander — who was drafted in the 15th round of the MLB Draft by Tampa Bay in 2009 — allowed just one run in a 117-pitch complete-game effort; his previous career-high was six innings. Johnson also struck out 10 — topping his season-high of five — while walking just one. He became the first pitcher to record 10 strikeouts against KU since 2009. The sophomore found success by getting ahead with fastballs on the outside corner before getting KU’s hitters to chase sliders. “We were swinging at balls in the dirt,” KU first baseman Zac Elgie said. “It’s impossible
to hit the ball when it’s almost bouncing in there every time.” KU barely avoided the shutout, as Lytle scored Elgie on an RBI groundout with two outs in the ninth. Johnson struck out the next batter, KU’s Jake Marasco, to end the game. After winning five straight against Missouri State coming into this year, KU lost both of its meetings against the Bears this year by a combined score of 11-1. “Missouri State obviously wants to come beat us, because they view us as a big dog,” Waters said. “I think we belittle too many people, and it’s come to bite us in the butt. We need to start focusing on going 1-0 every day and stop looking ahead.” Missouri State (17-10) was led offensively by Aaron Conway and Tyler Paxson, who both homered off KU starter Wally Marciel. Elgie and James Stanfield had two hits apiece for KU. The Jayhawks (12-16) will play Missouri at 5:30 p.m. today at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
Border War hits the K By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
Three wins in three tries, and looking to make it four. That’s where the Kansas University baseball team stands entering tonight’s 5:30 contest against archrival Missouri at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. “That’s one of those things that we pride ourselves on, trying to beat them every year,” KU junior Zac Elgie said. “Especially there.” The Jayhawks (12-16 overall, 4-5 in Big 12) are 3-0 alltime against the Tigers (13-15, 1-4) at “The K.” That includes a victory in last year’s defensive battle, in which thenfreshman Thomas Taylor pitched 5 2⁄3 innings, giving up just two hits and no runs. In all, the Jayhawks limited the Tigers to three hits in the 1-0 win. Taylor, a native of Overland Park, is slated to start again tonight. KU won all four games against Mizzou last year, none closer than the one-run game at Kauffman. KU’s lone run in that one came via an RBI sin-
gle off the bat of James Stanfield in the second inning, and, last weekend, Stanfield talked about the emotions that go along with playing at a major-league park. “Before the game, you’re pretty amped up,” he said. “But then, for me at least, once the game starts it kind of all slows back down and is just a game. The crowd and everything definitely gets you all pumped up, but it doesn’t get you out of your head or get you too crazy about it.” Added Elgie: “Playing in Kauffman’s awful fun. My first two years here, there hasn’t been anything better.” Tonight’s game against Mizzou will be the second in a five-game week for the Jayhawks. After taking two of three from No. 19 Baylor last weekend, KU lost to Missouri State at home Tuesday night and will jump back into Big 12 play for one with Missouri before welcoming Nebraska to town for a three-game, weekend series. Although tonight’s game is against Big 12 competition, it will not count toward either team’s
conference record. The regular-season series between the two rivals is set for April 15-17 at Missouri. The Tigers enter tonight’s one-game showdown with the sour taste of a weekend sweep by Texas fresh on their minds. While the Jayhawks are charging toward evening their record at .500, Elgie and Stanfield admitted that there’s something special about playing in the home park of the Kansas City Royals. “Going into Kauffman, if you can’t get pumped up for that game, there’s something wrong,” Stanfield said. Added Elgie: “I remember the first time when I walked in there. You’re just kind of like, ‘Wow. This is incredible.’ You’re kind of in shock at first. But then you get into the same routine, batting practice, take infield and outfield, and it’s the same thing when you’re in between the lines. It’s awful big on the outside, but it’s the same game. It’s such a fun environment, and there’s usually quite a few people there, so hopefully we can get another win (tonight).”
SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ. — The Kansas University men’s golf team finished in 15th place at the Cowboy Classic on Tuesday. The Jayhawks ended the tournament with a score of 870 (296-287-287) to finish 34 strokes behind winner Baylor. “It’s been a rough spring so far,” KU coach Kit Grove said. “I’m not going to say it’s been all bad, because we’ve certainly done some good stuff. But our execution is so poor right now. It’s frustrating because we are giving away a ton of shots around the green and we are missing a lot of short putts. That’s inexcusable because those are the little things that you should be working on everyday.” Although the team has not played as well as Grove would like, he believes his team still has the ability to turn things around. “We’re not playing great, but I think we’re playing a lot better than what we’re showing,” Grove said. “We’ve got some tournaments coming
we put three good rounds together, it’s tough to say how we’re going to finish the season.” Sophomore Alex Gutesha took charge for Kansas, finishing in a tie for 30th with a score of 215. Gutesha finished Tuesday with a round of 70, adding to his scores of 76 and 69 from Monday. His score of 215 is his best score of the spring season. Senior Nate Barbee, who was tied for 18th after the first two rounds, ended the tournament in a tie for 45th with a score of 218. He shot a 72 and 70 on Monday and concluded the tournament with a 76. Junior Doug Quinones finished in a tie for 51st with a score of 219, which included rounds of 73, 75 and 71. Senior Jeff Bell posted rounds of 75, 73, and 73 en route to a 221, placing him in a tie for 65th. Sophomore Dan Waite finished with a score of 227, which put him in a tie for 91st.

Alex Kennedy, NBA reporter for HOOPSWORLD and ESPN1040 contributor, tweeted that “Josh Selby will enter the NBA Draft and hire an agent, according to sources. He’s currently working out at Impact Basketball in Las Vegas.” Responding to that report Tuesday morning, Witherspoon said those reports were not true and no decision on Josh’s future had been reached. She said she was “sorry for the speculation” and would report news when any decision had been reached. Underclassmen have until April 24 to declare for the draft. If they don’t sign with an agent, they can return to school if they withdraw their name by May 8. Selby averaged 7.9 points and 2.2 assists per game last season. He played in 26 of KU’s 38 games, starting 11. During the Big 12 season, he was slowed by a stress reaction in his right foot. ●

Twins undecided: KU juniors Marcus and Markieff Morris have yet to announce whether they will enter the draft or return for their senior seasons. “The twins are back in class, in school.

He not only has great football skills, but he possesses great vision and tremendous leadership abilities.” The Jayhawks were off on Tuesday and will return to the practice field this afternoon for the fourth of 15 spring practices.

Behind the outstanding field performances for the KU men over the weekend, the Jayhawks made a splash entering the rankings at No. 12, while receiving 126.55 points in the computer generated poll. Kansas was just outside of the national rankings in the preseason poll, garnering the 26th spot.

Knockoffs Salt comes in many different forms CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10B
have grocery store stuff although I know that Panang curry paste you can get at the Asian market is particularly desirable. You see a list of spices in my ingredient list, and that’s because grocery store pre-mix is usually lacking, so I doctor it up with the things that appeal to me. We like ours fairly spicy. You can control that by buying a mild curry and not adding too much extra heat. I started by slicing up the red bell pepper into thin rounds and the onion into strips and cooking them at medium-high heat in a large skillet. I did reserve a few pieces of red onion for garnish at the end. Just heat some olive oil, toss the peppers and onions in with salt and pepper and a little curry powder and cook until they’re getting soft, but not all the way to caramelized or limp. Add in some minced garlic toward the end. In the meantime, start your rice. I like a coconut lime rice with this, so I begin by melting a tablespoon of butter in my saucepan and adding the cup and a half of rice. I like to do this with all rice — stir it with a little melted butter and just mildly toast it before I add liquid and bring to a boil. Once your rice pieces are all covered in the fat, add in a can of coconut milk and a cup and a half of water or chicken stock, and bring to a boil. Stir! Once it’s boiling, reduce heat to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Before serving, I zested one lime and squeezed its juice into the rice. Once the rice is started, you can add in your chicken and spices to the skillet. I removed extra fat and skin from the chicken and sliced it into strips. Then I coated each piece with curry powder, salt and pepper, and added them to the skillet. If you need to add more oil at this time, do so, but sparingly. While the chicken cooked, I added the rest of my curry and spices, and moved everything around to get a good coating on each piece of chicken and vegetable. Then I added one can of coconut milk, a cup of chicken stock and the brown sugar, and turned up the heat to reduce the sauce. I got mine a little too reduced and would have liked a little more “soup” with my rice, but overall, it was delicious anyway. To serve, scoop 1 cup of rice into a bowl and then serve the chicken, vegetables and sauce over it. Top with a piece of raw red pepper (the crunch and sweetness of it really liven up the dish), some chopped cilantro and some chopped green onions. I quartered some limes and served those next to it as well, and I liked the freshness of the squeezed lime juice over everything. Because there are so many strong spicy flavors, the complementing sweet and sour of the fresh fruit and pepper were extra nice.
Q:
I enjoyed your column last week on sodium and salt. Can you tell me what the differences are between the different kinds of salt available today?
A:
Many of you have asked this question since reading my column last week so I thought it would be best to just address it in today’s column.
Table salt Mined from underground salt deposits (heavily processed) ● Most trace minerals are removed ● Additives are used to prevent clumping ● Most contain added iodine (i.e., iodized salt) to prevent hypothyroidism ● Fine texture ● Used for cooking, baking and a condiment Sea salt Produced by evaporation of ocean water or saline lake water (little processing) ● Leaves behind an insignificant amount of trace minerals ● Trace minerals do provide a variety of flavors, textures and colors ● Naturally occurring minute amounts of iodine (additional amounts may be added) ● Available in fine or coarse texture ● By weight, it has the same amount of sodium as table salt
● Used for cooking, bak-
ing and a final seasoning to dishes
Kosher salt Comes from underground salt deposits or salt water ● Free of additives ● Does not have added iodine ● Coarse, large-grained ● Used traditionally in the koshering process to cure meats ● Also used for brining, marinating, cooking, toppings (i.e. pretzels) and rimming drink glasses (i.e. margaritas) Rock salt Mined from underground salt deposits ● Not refined — retains more minerals and harmless impurities ● Generally not considered to be edible ● Chunky crystals ● Used for many purposes ● Freezing homemade ice cream ● In a block form, heated at high temperatures to cook fish, shrimp and small cubes of meat or chilled to use as a bed in serving clams and oysters ● De-icers Pickling salt ● Contains no additives, which would cloud the brine ● Fine-grained ● Used to make brines for pickles and sauerkraut Seasoned Salt Table salt mixed with herbs and spices to create

various flavors and colors ● Used to add unique flavors to dishes
Salt substitutes ● Made of potassium chloride, magnesium or amino acids ● Contains little or no sodium ● Some can become bitter when heated ● Used as a table condiment Q: On a food label, what does “low-sodium” mean? A: Many food packages include terms related to sodium. Here are some common terms and their meanings: ● Sodium-free or salt-free — less than 5 milligrams of sodium per serving ● Very low sodium – 35 milligrams or less per serving ● Low sodium — 140 milligrams or less per serving ● Low sodium meal — 140 milligrams or less of sodium per 3 1/2 ounces (100 grams) ● Light in sodium — 50 percent less sodium than the regular version ● Reduced or less sodium

set up a cupcake table at the birthday party of First Management honcho Doug Compton. Thanks to the contacts and exposure she got there, she was suddenly filling orders for various Kansas University sports teams and events, making dreams come true for a huge Jayhawks fan who studied sports marketing at KU. SanRomani launched her storefront operation on Valentine’s Day weekend, using a business model she hopes will make it a “treat” to have a Cami’s Cake item and keeps her from burning out. So, just like in her homebaking days, the majority of the bakery’s business comes from doing cakes and cupcake displays for weddings and parties, but her storefront is open at least once a month for walk-ins. “What we’re trying to do is be open during holidays. We were open Valentine’s Day, we were open for St. ●●● Patrick’s Day, we’re going to When you’re replicating be open for Easter,” she says. restaurant-style dishes at “If someone comes in for a home, the devil is definitely wedding cake tasting, we in the details.

An Assisted Living Community
CUPCAKES FOR AUTISM Cami’s Cake Co. will be selling cupcakes to benefit the Eudora Autism Community Education & Support Society at the Eudora Autism Awareness Walk. The walk, cupcake sale and prize raffle will be from 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday at CPA Park in downtown Eudora. old building at 724 Main St. “I was a little nervous about the storefront, because that’s getting into uncharted territory,” says SanRomani’s sister, Alissa Blake, who does the shop’s books and is paid in cupcakes by Cami herself. “Eudora’s just been a great location for her. That community is so supportive. They came out in droves when she opened up on Valentine’s Day. We had no idea that it would be like that.” Standing in their shop, the SanRomanis seems more than a bit sugar-shocked by the support and the realness of it all, even as they spend a morning unloading real-ascan-be 100-pound sacks of flour and powdered sugar. “It was tough for a while, working so many jobs and trying financially to help her get started,” says Dustin, the official hauler of flour and sugar, when he’s not in teacher mode. “I think the hard work that we’re putting in now, I think will pay off in the future. That’s kind of what keeps me going, and as long as I can keep her pursuing her dream, that’s what I really care about.” — Staff writer Sarah Henning can be reached at 832-7187.

That’s a huge amount that can help fill out the library’s collections, resources and add to its general programing. “That money all reverts back to programming and collections at the library. So, we (partially) fund things like the summer reading program and collections, and the Friends just bought some new computer stations in the children’s library.

CAMI SANROMANI, owner of Cami’s Cake Co., has opened a store in Eudora following her success catering treats at parties, including for Kansas University’s athletic department. The store location is 724 Main St.
Sweet dreams
EUDORA BAKERY TAKES OFF AFTER YEARS OF PLANNING By Sarah Henning sarah@lawrence.com
If Cami SanRomani is any indication, sweet dreams are made of this: Hard work, sacrifice, and lots and lots of buttercream. In the past two years, SanRomani, 27, has gone from baking a few dozen cupcakes in her kitchen for friends to catering for a handful of Kansas University sports teams and opening a storefront shop, Cami’s Cake Co., in downtown Eudora. “The business is booming,” she says. “I never thought in a small town that we would get the business that we’re getting, but it’s really not that far of a drive for people in Lawrence and for the people in Kansas City.” Cami’s Cake Co. grew from a conversation SanRomani had with her husband (then-boyfriend), Dustin, three years ago. On a walk while down in the dumps over work, she began to question her path in life. “I was like, ‘What are you passionate
about?’” says Dustin SanRomani. “And she had always loved all those shows on Food Network and always talked about cakes. And she said she always wanted to do that. I was like, ‘Well, you might as well try.’” She took pastry classes for a year within the culinary education program at Johnson County Community College, and once she felt ready, she started off baking for friends and contacts she made through Dustin’s job as a second-grade teacher at Eudora Elementary. “He’s been my No. 1 advocate, by far,” she says of Dustin, whom she married in 2009. “He worked probably more than three jobs a lot of time, just to pay for the flour and sugar and the time that I wasn’t working. It’s 100 percent him: He encouraged me to pursue it. He funded it. He’s everything.” After a year of making cupcakes here and there, business ramped up CAMI SANROMANI had an all-American bake sale Saturday at her store, Cami’s Cake exponentially when Cami’s Cake Co. Co., at 724 Main St., Eudora. She directs customers to her Facebook page to check Please see CAKES, page 9B for walk-in times to sample her treats.
Make your own knockout restaurant knockoffs
We
don’t eat out very often. My husband gets so tired of me saying, “But I can make that at home!” when he suggests we go out to this restaurant or that. I mean, I have made almost a perfect copy of the amazing Star Bar burger (yes, I know their secrets, and no, I’m not telling), I make a mean “restaurantstyle” enchilada with chili gravy, and I’ve even been known to roll my own sushi. You want Red Lobster? I can boil a crustacean and make a killer cheesy biscuit. Craving wings? I’ll break out our fryer and cut up some celery.
It’s just so much cheaper. I can’t justify going out to a restaurant where we will either have to entertain a fidgety toddler and therefore not really enjoy the experience so much, or basically end up paying double for our meal with the high cost of babysitters these days. Especially when I can make it at home, in my yoga pants, for a fraction of the cost. Yes, there are dishes to do after, but that’s why we have husbands. Recently, I had a hankering for Zen Zero, but I had some chicken thighs thawed in the fridge and figured I would just try my own hand

COCONUT CHICKEN CURRY
a blog by Megan Stuke at a little coconut curry. And it was so good. We all agreed, and I’m still having lurid thoughts about it a week later. It was fast and easy, required only two pots, and cost pennies on your restaurant dollar.

First, let’s talk about curry powder. I need to remind you that there is no such thing as a “curry plant” and when we talk about curry we rarely all mean the same thing. Curry is a mixture of spices, and what constitutes a curry can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. You can mix up your own curry or you can buy a premix, that’s all up to you.

Confiding in someone can ease traumatic memories
Dear Secret: Sometimes these things surface when you are under stress, or in your case, you may have some form
Annie’s Mailbox
Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net
My husband cannot take drugs for erectile dysfunction. He also cannot take time off of work to have hernia surgery. His job might not be waiting for him when he returns. Maybe he’ll do it when he retires. I will unhappily live with my problem, but if other men see themselves in this letter, I hope they will think about their wives once in a while. — Just Wanted To Share
Dear Share: Ask your husof post-traumatic stress disorder because you never dealt band if you can accompany with the earlier abuse. Con- him to his next doctor’s fiding in your husband could provide much-needed emotional support, but since this is so difficult for you, we recommend you contact RAINN (rainn.org) at 1-800-656HOPE. Their trained counselors will help you work through this.
What if a charming but overwhelmed guy was shanghaied into some supersecret agency and learned to love it? That’s essentially the plot of “CHAOS,” which debuted on CBS last Friday. And it pretty much covers “Breaking In” (8:30 p.m., Fox), premiering tonight. Bret Harrison (“Reaper”) stars as Cameron, a professional slacker who is ambitious in spite of his best efforts. He has used his hacker skills to live large as a perpetual student. Seven years into this hoax, he’s busted by Contra Security, a shadowy organization hired by institutions to catch hackers and scam artists like Cameron. Headed by the enigmatic Oz (Christian Slater), Contra makes Cameron an offer he can’t refuse: Join them or face the music, which means jail time and a nearmillion-dollar tuition bill. After establishing this rather slick premise, “Breaking In” descends into some rather pat office hilarity. Cameron suffers any number of indignities at the hands of his colleagues. And when he brings them to the attention of Oz, the big boss utters his catchphrase, “I’ll allow it.” Despite his star status, Slater isn’t given much else to say or do. ● Imagine the Three Stooges on drugs and you’re halfway to joining the writing staff for “Workaholics” (9:30 p.m., Comedy Central). Three slackers who work as telemarketers scheme to keep the college party going well into middle age. The first episode largely revolves around their frantic efforts to secure clean urine so they can pass a company mandated drug test. And from that rather thin premise, many rude and funny scenes ensue. ● The new series “Extreme Couponing” (8 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., TLC) doesn’t follow the casual saver but profiles compulsive clippers for whom coupon discounts have become “a way of life.” Is it any wonder that these two premiere halfhour segments give way to “Hoarding: Buried Alive” (9 p.m., TLC)? ● A shop catering to the beauty-contest business becomes the setting for “Glamour Belles” (9 p.m., Lifetime Movie Network), a new unscripted series.
Tonight’s other highlights ● It’s down to nine on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox). ● The documentary “Earth Made of Glass” (7 p.m., HBO2) follows the search for answers about the 1994 Rwandan genocide. ● A holiday from technology on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC). ● Can face masks get around security cameras? Ask the “MythBusters” (8 p.m., Discovery). ● A killer roams Oklahoma City on “Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior” (9 p.m., CBS). ● Terrence Howard guest stars on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” (9 p.m., NBC). ● A religious parade ends with a deadly accident on the season finale of “Off the Map” (9 p.m., ABC). ● The Bennetts and the coal company stand on the brink on “Justified” (9 p.m., FX). ● “Ben Franklin’s Pirates” (9 p.m., National Geographic) looks at efforts to thwart privateers in the late 18th century. Part of “Expedition Week.”

appointment so you can discuss this and see about changes to his medication. The doctor might also give your husband suggestions for making your physical relationship closer. You also should try talking openly and lovingly with your husband, explaining that affection, even without sex, can improve your relationship and make both of you happier.
Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married for 30 years. We had a wonderful sex life until the past five years. Between the medication for his high blood pressure and the pain of two hernias, his interest in me has gone right out the window. I crave some sort of affection. I tried letting him know we can have some closeness without these problems getting in the way, but he just rolls over and goes to sleep.

Dear Annie: I need to talk to someone. No one knows about this — not even my husband of 19 years. I am now 40, and when I was a young girl, I was molested for a period of time by a hired man on the farm my dad owned. He said if I ever told anyone, he would hurt me, and I believed him. I never went to my parents. I was also raped my second year in college by a fellow classmate. He was convicted, and my family knows about that, as does my husband. But for some reason, I couldn’t tell anyone about the earlier molestation. I was still afraid this man was going to hurt me. Lately, I have been having nightmares about it and don’t know why. The guilt, pain and anger are eating me up inside. I don’t attend church, so I cannot speak to a pastor. And I have no close friends nearby who I would feel comfortable confiding in. Besides, how do you bring up something like this? Please help me. Should I tell my parents now? I’m afraid of saying anything to them or to my husband because it would be terribly hurtful. Why is this happening now? — A Horrible Secret

Notable ● Diamond Foods Inc. took
its biggest bite yet of the snack business with a $1.5 billion deal to buy the Pringles brand from Procter & Gamble Co. The deal is the biggest in a stack of acquisitions for Diamond and will more than triple the size of the maker of Emerald nuts and Pop Secret popcorn. Adding Pringles will make it a distant second in the snack business to PepsiCo’s Frito-Lay, which controls nearly half of the market.

Poll: Few baby boomers feel good about retiring By Alan Fram Associated Press Writer
W A S H I N G T O N — Baby boomers facing retirement are worried about their finances, and many believe they’ll need to work longer than planned or will never be able to retire, a new poll finds. The 77 million-strong generation born between 1946 and 1964 has clung tenaciously to its youth. Now, boomers are getting nervous about retirement. Only 11 percent say they are strongly convinced they will be able to live in comfort. A total of 55 percent said they were either somewhat or very certain they could retire with financial security. But another 44 percent express little or no faith they’ll have enough money when their careers end. Further underscoring the f inancial squeeze, 1 in 4 boomers still working say they’ll never retire. That’s about the same number as those who say they have no retirement savings. The Associated Press-LifeGoesStrong.com poll comes as politicians face growing pressure to curb record federal deficits, and budget hawks of both parties have expressed a willingness to scale back Social Security, the government’s biggest program. The survey suggests how politically risky that would be: 64 percent of boomers see Social Security as the keystone of their retirement earnings, far outpacing pensions, investments and other income. The survey also highlights the particular retirement challenge facing boomers,

who are contemplating exiting the work force just as the worst economy in seven decades left them coping with high jobless rates, tattered home values and painfully low interest rates that stunt the growth of savings. “I have six kids,” said Gary Marshalek, 62, of South Abington Township, Pa., who services drilling equipment and says he has repeatedly ref inanced his home and dipped into his pension to pay for his children’s college. His inability to afford retirement “sounds like America at the moment,” Marshalek said. “Sounds like the normal instead of the abnormal.” Marshalek was among the 25 percent in the poll who say they plan to never retire. People who are unmarried, earn under $50,000 a year, or say they did a poor job of financial planning are disproportionately represented among that group. Overall, nearly 6 in 10 baby boomers say their workplace retirement plans, personal investments or real estate lost value during the economic crisis of the past three years. Of this group, 42 percent say they’ll have to delay retirement because their nest eggs shrank. Though the first boomers are turning 65 this year, the poll finds that 28 percent already consider themselves retired. Of those still working, nearly half want to retire by age 65 and about another quarter envision retiring between 66 and 70. Two-thirds of those still on the job say they will keep working after they retire, a plan shared about evenly across sex, marital status and education lines, the survey finds.

German teen over the moon for her jumping cow Luna By Veronika Oleksyn Associated Press Writer
LAUFEN , G ERMANY — When Regina Mayer’s parents dashed her hopes of getting a horse, the resourceful 15year-old didn’t sit in her room and sulk. Instead, she turned to a cow called Luna to make her riding dreams come true. Hours of training, and tons of treats, cajoling and caresses later, the results are impressive: Not only do the two regularly go on long rides through the southern German countryside, they do jumps over a makeshift hurdle of beer crates and painted logs. “She thinks she’s a horse,” the golden-haired Mayer joked on a recent sunny afternoon as she sat atop the impassive brown-and-white, grass-munching cow. It all started about two years ago, shortly after Luna was born on the Mayers’ sprawling farm in the hamlet of Laufen, just minutes from the Austrian border. They started off with walks in the woods during which Luna wore a halter. Then Mayer slowly got her cow more accustomed to human contact and riding equipment. About six months later, it was time to see how Luna would respond to a rider on her back. Mayer sat in the saddle, and all went as planned — at least at first. “She was really well behaved and walked normally,” said Mayer, decked out in
WASHINGTON (AP) — A hightech entrepreneur unveiled plans Tuesday to launch the world’s most powerful rocket since man went to the moon. Space Exploration Technology has already sent the first private rocket and capsule into Earth’s orbit as a commercial venture. It is now planning a rocket that could lift twice as much cargo into orbit as the soon-to-beretired space shuttle. The first launch is slotted for 2013 from California with follow-up launches from Cape Canaveral in Florida. Space X’s new rocket

REGINA MAYER JUMPS WITH HER COW LUNA over a hurdle in Laufen, southern Germany, on Tuesday.

riding gear. “But after a couple of meters, she wanted me to get off! You could see that she got a bit peeved.” Luna and Mayer are now soul mates, spending most afternoons together once the teen — who aspires to become a nurse one day — comes home from school. Their extensive routine involves grooming, petting, jumps and a roughly onehour ride. That’s also the case in winter, when Mayer lovingly drapes a blanket over Luna to keep her warm. It’s a lot of work “but I enjoy it,” Mayer said. Her efforts have paid off.
Now, Luna understands commands such as “go,” “stand” and “gallop.” If she feels like it, that is. “When she wants to do something she does it, when she doesn’t, she doesn’t,” said Mayer, who proudly says Luna thinks of her as her mother. “And she’s often very headstrong but can also be really adorable.” Luna’s stubborn streak meant that teaching her pony tricks wasn’t always easy, Mayer noted, saying she sought tips from a cow expert in Switzerland on how to deal with “steering” problems.

Only the long retired Saturn V rocket that sent men to the moon was bigger. “This is a rocket of truly huge scale,” said Space X president Elon Musk, who also founded PayPal and manufactures electric sports cars. The Falcon Heavy could put 117,000 pounds into the same orbit as the International Space Station. The space shuttle hauls about 54,000 pounds into orbit. The old Saturn V could carry more

than 400,000 pounds of cargo. The old Soviet Union had a giant moon rocket bigger than the Falcon Heavy, but it failed in all four launch attempts. Another Soviet rocket, also bigger than Falcon Heavy and designed to launch its version of the space shuttle, had one successful flight more than 20 years ago. While the new Space X rocket is designed initially for cargo, it satisfies NASA’s current safety requirements for carrying humans and after several launches could carry people too, Musk said.
