Government shutdown would close national parks

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Just when the Battle of Black Jack was getting some national buzz, the government threatens to shut down.

If Republicans and Democrats in Washington can’t reach an agreement on a budget by midnight, much of the federal government closes shop, and that means shutting down the 394 parks and historic sites run by the U.S. National Park Service.

That includes the Topeka-based Brown v. Board of Education National Historic Site, which currently features an exhibit on the Battle of Black Jack. The battle fought in Douglas County in 1856 is being called the first fight in the lead-up to the Civil War. David Barna, chief spokesman for the National Park Service, said that if the government shuts down, all the national parks, monuments, war sites and preserves would close, all visitors would have to leave and 17,000 workers would be on furlough. The national parks are getting

about 800,000 visitors per day.

“That’s the big impact,” he said.

“They (visitors) won’t have this experience, which is really sad.” In addition, the agency’s website also would be shut As for how down. It receives a Kansas will be million hits per affected, Gov. day, mostly from Sam Brownback’s school children office is taking a working on class reports and adults wait-and-see planning their approach. vacations.

Social Security recipients would still get monthly checks, but military troops would not receive their full paychecks, according to the federal government. The air traffic control system would continue, as would emergency response agencies and the Border Patrol.

In Kansas, Gov. Sam Brownback’s office was taking a wait-and-see attitude. Brownback’s spokeswoman, Sherriene Jones-Sontag, said the

office wasn’t going to answer questions about a federal shutdown until it happened because there were so many variables in what could be affected.

At Kansas University, spokesman Jack Martin said grants and additional requests by students for financial aid could be delayed.

Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug said as far as county services go, people won’t see any difference at all.

And in the agricultural sector, reports indicate that services related to law enforcement and public health, such as meat, poultry, eggs and grain inspections would continue. Funds have also been made available for nutrition programs and food stamps.

The Kansas Department of Transportation reports that a federal shutdown would have no effect on highway projects. The federal transportation funding law was extended

by President Barack Obama through Sept. 30, according to KDOT spokesman Steve Swartz.

TOPEKA — State officials said Thursday that “minuscule” levels of radiation from the damaged nuclear power plant in Japan have been detected in Kansas but posed no health threat.

“We understand the concern Kansans may have,” said Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer, who is also a surgeon.

“What we are seeing is a minuscule blip on the meter.

The consensus remains from international, national and state health experts that this does not pose a Colyer health risk to Kansans,” Colyer said.

The magnitude-9.0 earthquake and ensuing tsunami that struck Japan on March 11 started a nuclear crisis at the Fukushima Dai-chi facility. Explosions rocked two reactor buildings resulting in the release of dangerous nuclear radiation.

The Environmental Protection Agency, Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and other federal agencies in the United States have been monitoring the situation.

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment conducts a wide variety of soil, air, water, vegetation and animal life samplings on a weekly and quarterly basis.

KDHE Secretary Robert Moser, who also is a physician, said the elevated levels of radiation in the United States, including Kansas, were expected.

“While these levels are well below any need for public concern, we are working with county health departments in case Kansans have any questions,” Moser said. “We will also continue to monitor our state’s environment and report future spikes in these levels if they were to occur,” he said.

Kansas Agriculture Secretary Dale Rodman said the Kansas food supply is safe and secure.

The Food and Drug Administration and U.S. Department of Agriculture has been working on the situation with the Japanese government to ensure imported food is safe to eat, officials said.

Officials advised Kansans against taking potassium iodide, which can block radioactive iodine.

Potassium iodide is only appropriate when one is close to an incident at a nuclear facility, they said.

The market will get under way downtown for the first time this year at 7 a.m. Saturday with a record number of vendors.

New vendors coming to Farmers’ Market ———

Sales begin downtown at 7 a.m. Saturday

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Visitors to this year’s Downtown Lawrence Farmers’ Market should expect to see some new vendors and products, from dog treats to blueberry bushes.

At 7 a.m. Saturday, the market, in the 800 block of New Hampshire, will officially begin its 35th year.

A record number of vendors asked to sell at the market this year, market coordinator Tom Buller said. In fact, some vendors had to be turned away.

“It’s a commentary on the historic success of the market,” Buller said. “We get a lot of interest from people over a wide area of northeast Kansas. Lawrence has a very successful farmers’ market and word gets out.”

Combined, the Saturday, Tuesday and Thursday markets will have a total of about 100 vendors.

Throughout the year, shoppers should expect to see about 15 to 20 new vendors.

Many of them will be selling prepared food, such as baked goods, soups, sandwiches, flavored sodas and even dog treats.

There also will be more fruit and vegetable growers; one in particular will be selling blueberries and blueberry bushes.

While the market staples of fresh tomatoes and sweet corn won’t be available for a couple of months, there will be plenty of greens for sale this time of year.

Buller expects there to be lettuce, spinach, salad mixes, green onions, eggs and meat.

“I’m always surprised by the first day of market. You never know what people will bring,” Buller said.

If temperatures are in the 80s and rain holds off until the evening (as the National Weather Service is predicting), then Buller anticipates about 30 vendors Saturday.

April is considered to be the soft opening of the Saturday market.

May is the grand opening with the arrival of two weekday markets.

From April through the end of September, the Saturday market will run from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. In October, the hours shift from 8 a.m. to noon. The Saturday market ends on the Saturday before Thanksgiving.

Both the Tuesday market, in the 1000 block of Vermont Street, and the Thursday market, 4932 W. Sixth St., are from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. and run from the first week of May to the end of October.

A defendant suspected in a 2008 shooting and robbery at a Lawrence apartment told an officer the gun accidentally went off and that he was acting in self-defense, according to testimony Thursday at a preliminary hearing.

Dustin D. Walker, 26, of Lawrence, said that Stephen Patterson, 23, had charged at him during an altercation April 22, 2008, in Patterson’s apartment in the 2500 block of Redbud Lane, Lawrence police officer Michael Ramsey said about a 2008 interview he had with Walker.

Douglas County prosecutors earlier this year filed charges of aggravated robbery and aggravated battery against Walker and Asia Shanae Morrison, 21, of Lawrence, accusing them of participating in a robbery that left Patterson shot in the leg. A witness testified Thursday that Morrison and Walker had come to Patterson’s apartment that day to pick up Morrison’s son.

Ramsey testified that Walker told him he became nervous when two men exited a back bedroom as Walker was in a heated conversation with Patterson. Walker told police Patterson charged him and pulled out a firearm, but Walker said when he wrested it away from Patterson the gun went off.

Walker said he left the apartment and learned later that Patterson had been shot.

He also told police Morrison had already left the apartment.

“He said they did not take anything from Mr. Patterson,” Ramsey testified.

Walker was already in custody when he was charged because he’s accused as the suspect in an unrelated shooting that occurred Dec. 5, 2010, at South Pointe Apartments, 2310 W 26th St. Patterson — who is currently in custody accused of violating his parole for 2009 drug possession, aggravated assault and battery convictions — briefly took the stand during Thursday’s preliminary hearing, but he declined to testify, so District Judge Paula Martin appointed him an attorney in the case. The hearing is scheduled to continue at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday.

Morrison remains free on $30,000 bond, according to jail records.

12 children killed in school shooting A gunman roamed the halls of an elementary school in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday and killed 12 children, lining them up against a wall and shooting them in the head at point-blank range as he shouted, “I’m going to kill you all!”

It was the worst school shooting in Brazil — and would have been deadlier if the gunman had not been shot in the legs by a police officer, who said the man then fell down some stairs and shot himself in the head.

Images taken with a cell phone and posted on YouTube showed students fleeing wildly, screaming for help, many with their white and blue school shirts soaked in blood.

Rio de Janeiro state’s Secretariat of Health and Civil Defense said in a statement on its website that at least 12 other students were injured, many by gunfire, and taken to hospitals. At least two were in grave condition. Officials earlier reported 18 injured.

The dead included 10 girls and two boys, plus the gunman, according to the Health and Civil Defense department. Those killed were between the ages of 12 and 15.

St. Patrick’s Day Parade raises record amount 3 local groups split $66,000

By Brenna Hawley bhawley@ljworld.com

Glynn Sheridan has a problem, but it’s a problem he doesn’t mind too much. He has more money for his organization, Junior Achievement, than he has volunteers to carry out the mission for which the money was raised.

The Lawrence St. Patrick’s

Day Parade broke its previous record of $52, 500 with 2011 fundraising, collecting $66,000.

Junior Achievement, Cooper’s Cause Foundation and Imagine Drop-In Childcare received $22,000 each during a presentation Thursday at Capital City Bank, 740 N.H. Sheridan said the money Junior Achievement received would allow the organization to move into at least 40 more classrooms. It is present in more than 200 classes, teaching children real-world skills with a focus on business.

Sheridan, who is on Junior

Achievement’s board of directors, said that in the past he’s had to turn down requests from schools to bring in the program because of lack of funds. Now they need more volunteers to teach children.

“It’s a great problem to have,” he said.

Kristi Keefer, co-founder of Cooper’s Cause Foundation, said the $22,000 donation was the largest the organization had ever received. She said it took the organization, now in its fourth year, a couple of years to Please see PARADE, page 5A

Report: Minorities get poorer health care From cradle to grave, minority populations tend to suffer poorer health and get poorer health care than white Americans. In a first-of-its-kind report, the government is recommending steps to reduce those disparities.

The plan being released today runs the gamut from improving dental care for poor children to tapping “promotoras,” savvy community health workers who can help guide their Spanish-speaking neighbors in seeking treatment.

But it acknowledges that giving everyone an equal shot at living a healthy life depends on far more than what happens inside a doctor’s office — or steps that federal health officials can take.

HHS wouldn’t put a dollar figure on its own pending projects, but said it plans to pay for them with money already in hand and not subject to Congress’ ongoing budget battle.

Stores turn in surprisingly strong sales The economic recovery keeps defying expectations and getting stronger. Robust consumer spending in March is the latest sign that the rebound is entering a self-reinforcing cycle of improvement.

Shoppers shrugged off worries about higher gas prices and treated themselves at the mall last month. Retailers from Costco to Victoria’s Secret reported surprisingly good sales Thursday, and analysts said people would have spent even more but for the late Easter. The results were the latest economic report to come in better than expected. The private sector added more than 200,000 jobs in each of February and March, and the unemployment rate has fallen more than a full percentage point, to 8.8 percent, in just four months.

EMPORIA (AP) — Ford Motor Co. CEO Alan Mulally has won a spot in the Kansas Business Hall of Fame at Emporia State University.

Mulally is a graduate of Kansas University and former top executive at Boeing. He was chosen for the Hall of Fame for his work in stabilizing Ford financially.

Emporia Mulally State says the other 2011 inductee is the late Joseph G. McCoy, who developed the Kansas town of Abilene as a principal shipping point for Texas cattle coming up the Chisholm Trail.

Although Emporia State is home to the Business Hall of Fame, an induction ceremony June 29 will be at Butler Community College in El Dorado.

Gov. Sam Brownback is expected to be among the guests.

President Barack Obama praised Thursday a newly finalized free trade agreement with Colombia as good for the U.S. economy and American workers.

During an Oval Office meeting with Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos, Obama said the pact would boost U.S. exports to Colombia by $1 billion per year and support thousands of American jobs.

The Obama administration announced a breakthrough on the long-stalled trade deal Wednesday after the Colombian government agreed to take additional steps to protect workers’ rights, including the right to organize. Labor rights had been a key concern for U.S. officials given the high rate of violence against union members in Colombia.

Obama praised Santos, who is a Kansas University graduate, for his commitment to tackling the issue of labor rights.

Q:

Where is Butler Uni- LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT versity located and • Lawrence police arrested a where does it play its 54-year-old Lawrence man Wednesday afternoon after a home basketball games?

A:

Butler University is located in Indianapolis, Ind., f ive miles from downtown. The Bulldogs play their home basketball games on campus at Hinkle Fieldhouse, a red-brick building constructed in 1928.

It was a site of Indiana High School Athletic Association playoffs from 1928 to 1971 with an interruption from 1943 to 1945 during World War II. The popular movie “Hoosiers” is based loosely on Milan High, a town of 160 residents that won the Indiana state title at Hinkle Fieldhouse in 1954. Bobby Plump, who hit the game-winning shot for Milan and was fictionalized as a character named Jimmy Chitwood, went on to become a star at Butler. Chitwood’s big shot in “Hoosiers” was filmed at Hinkle Fieldhouse.

Comparisons between the movie “Hoosiers” were made to the Butler Bulldogs team that lost to Duke in the 2010 title game. In the 2011 title game, Butler lost to Connecticut and would have had trouble hitting the side of barn-like Hinkle Fieldhouse, shooting .188 in a 53-41 loss and making just three two-point field goals, six fewer than the previous low mark in an NCAA title game.

The suspect remained at the Douglas County Jail Thursday, but prosecutors had not yet filed official charges.

Thursday’s kickoff event was just one of several planned locally for the rest of the month. Shields, who’s speaking at the high schools while in Lawrence, said people often read “To Kill a Mockingbird” for the way it highlights important social issues.

“It addresses one of the most important questions posed to human beings, which is how do you get along with people who are different,” Shields said. “It’s something we all wrestle with.”

District could reap $85K from tax break

By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

Lawrence school district could expect to receive another $85,000 in revenue from a new architecture office under a tax-break plan up for review Monday night by the Lawrence school board.

Board members will consider the Lawrence school district’s portion of a neighborhood revitalization plan for Treanor Architects, which intends to locate its headquarters at 1040 Vt. The meeting begins at 7 p.m. Monday at district headquarters, 110 McDonald Drive.

The full agenda and links to reports is available at USD497.org.

Lawrence city commissioners already have approved the city’s portion of the project, and Douglas County commissioners also will be asked to approve granting a break on its portion of anticipated additional tax revenues that would be generated by the project.

A cost-benefit analysis conducted for the city and county shows that the district could expect to receive an additional $85,000 in revenue during the next 15 years as a result of the project, if the taxbreak plan were approved.

The plan wouldn’t cost the district anything, according to the report.

Board members will be expected to vote on the plan April 25.

Among other items on the agenda for Monday’s meeting: ● Consider approving new names for Lawrence’s junior high schools, effective July 1: Central Middle School, South Middle School, Southwest Middle School and West Middle School. ● Receive a report about transition activities for students at Wakarusa Valley School, which is set to close at the end of this school year. ● Receive a report about “Ongoing Cash Balance Reporting,” a plan to update reports monthly that detail the amount of money in each fund within the district budget. ● Discuss issues related to a recommendation from the Lawrence Elementary School Facility Vision Task Force, one that calls for consolidating six elementary schools into three or four within the next three to five years. ● Discuss possible expansion of full-day kindergarten programming. ● Discuss potential budget cuts for the 2011-12 academic year. ● Consider approving boundary changes to account for the closure of Wakarusa Valley School.

Volunteers needed for Day of Caring

By Brenna Hawley bhawley@ljworld.com

Keeping up with maintenance at Kennedy School can be tough. Gardens around the building regularly need care, and tasks such as clearing the gutters and painting door frames sometimes arouse too much curiosity from the students.

“You can’t do that stuff when the kids are around.

They’re too curious,” said Crystal Harris, Title 1 reading specialist and PTO president at the school.

That’s why Harris responded to the United Way’s call for participant locations for the annual Day of Caring, set for April 16.

About a week away from the event, the United Way still needs more than 180 volunteers to fill all the volunteering spots available throughout Douglas County.

“

It’s good for the soul.

It makes you feel good about yourself, and it’s especially good to go out with a group of people.”

— Shannon Reid, AmeriCorps member at United Way Kennedy is only one of 33 volunteer opportunities available that day. Only six have all the volunteers they’ve requested, and many do not have any volunteers signed up yet.

Shannon Reid, AmeriCorps member at United Way, said the event attracts a lot of community groups who volunteer together. Often groups from businesses, churches and student groups will sign up for the same opportunity.

“It’s fun to get together with hundreds of people and go out at the same time,” Reid said.

No deal reached in government spending talks Deadline for agreement is midnight tonight

By David Espo Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — Time growing short, President Barack Obama and congressional leaders failed to reach agreement Thursday night on a compromise to cut spending and head off a midnight tonight government shutdown that no one claimed to want.

Obama, House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid all said the differences had been narrowed in a pair of White House meetings during the day. They directed their aides to work through the night in pursuit of a deal.

“I expect an answer in the

morning,” Obama said in an appearance in the White House briefing room shortly after his second sit-down of the day with the lawmakers.

The comments capped a day in which the president, Reid, D-Nev., and Boehner, ROhio, bargained and blustered by turns, struggling to settle their differences over spending cuts and other issues while maneuvering to avoid any political blame if they failed.

With the economy just now beginning to create jobs in large numbers, the president said a shutdown would damage the recovery. “For us to go backwards because Washington couldn’t get its act together is just unacceptable,” he said. The White House announced he had postponed a scheduled trip to Indianapolis for the morning.

But agreement remained elusive, and Republicans passed legislation through the House at mid-day to fund the

City trash task force ready to tackle issues

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Think of them as a unique group of Dumpster divers.

Members of Lawrence’s new Solid Waste Task Force made it clear at their first meeting Thursday that they’re ready to dive headfirst into Lawrence’s biggest trash issue in decades.

The city-appointed task force agreed that it will spend nearly a year meeting to determine whether Lawrence’s trash and recycling systems need major overhauls. Certainly, some on the committee already are leaning that direction.

“I would like to see some dramatic changes and some dramatic improvements at the end of this,” said task force member Daniel Poull, who also serves on the city’s Sustainability Advisory Board.

Items that likely will be on the task force’s agenda include possible privatization of the city’s trash system, a new curbside recycling program, greater automation of the service that could require residents to use special trash carts instead of cans, and new pricing systems that charge people based on how much trash they generate.

But none of those issues got any serious discussion at the Thursday meeting.

Instead, task force members introduced themselves and decided that they would meet once every two weeks for the next several months.

They also told city staff members that they would like to take several field trips, including to the landfill, to a special recycling collection facility in Kansas City, and to follow city trash workers as they do their jobs. City Manager David Corliss said it likely will be possible to have some of the task force members ride on the back of the trucks and collect trash to better understand the service.

The task force also expressed interest in holding a special meeting in the next few months to give residents an opportunity to express what they think ought to be done with the trash service.

“I think it will be important to have a listening meeting where we do a really good job of advertising it to the public because we really want to hear what they have to say,” Corliss said.

City Commissioner Aron Cromwell, who is serving as chairman of the task force, said he envisions the task force spending several months learning about the

current solid waste operations of the city, then spending several months discussing options for improving Cromwell the service, and then finalizing the recommendations by “doing a reality check” to make sure all recommendations are financially feasible.

“We have to be responsible to the citizens of Lawrence, and that means whatever we do has to be done in a very economical way,” Cromwell said.

The task force is schedule to deliver a set of recommendations to city commissioners by March 1, 2012. City commissioners will have the final authority for approving any changes to the trash system.

The task force has 11 members. In addition to Cromwell and Poull, they are: ● William Beeson, a loader for the city’s sanitation department ● Suzi Cammon, a Lawrence resident who has been active in environmental issues at schools ● Joe Harkins, a retired member of the Kansas Corporation Commission and former secretary of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment ● Sam Porritt, a city resident interested in environmental issues ● l Ralph Reed, a Lawrence resident interested in the city’s trash system ● Charlie Sedlock, a Lawrence resident and an executive with the city’s landfill provider ● Jeff Severin, director of Kansas University’s sustainability office ● Christine Tomlin, a Lawrence educator who said she volunteered to serve on the task force because she loves the city’s current trash service ● Dan Wethington, an engineer at Lawrence’s Bartlett & West

Pentagon for six months, cut $12 billion in domestic spending and keep the federal bureaucracy humming for an additional week. “There is absolutely no policy reason for the Senate to not follow the House in taking these responsible steps to support our troops and to keep our government open,” said Boehner.

Obama flashed a veto threat even before the bill passed on a 247-181, mostly party-line vote. The administration issued a statement calling it “a distraction from the real work” of agreeing on legislation to cover the six months left in the current fiscal year, and there was no indication Reid would allow a vote on it.

As they left the White House after the evening meeting, Reid and Boehner issued a brief written statement that said they had narrowed their disagreements and said they would “continue to work through the night

to attempt to resolve” the remaining ones.

Republicans want deeper spending cuts than the Democrats favor and also are pressing for provisions to cut off federal funds to Planned Parenthood and stop the EPA from issuing numerous antipollution regulations.

“They’re difficult issues.

They’re important to both sides and so I’m not yet prepared to express wild optimism,” said the president.

In a shift in position, Obama said he would sign a short-term measure keeping the government running even without an agreement to give negotiations more time to succeed.

That was one of the options available to Reid, although Boehner said he was confident Democratic lawmakers would persuade “Reid and our commander in chief to keep the government from shutting down” by signing the House-passed bill.

Status quo poses risks for Israel

EDITORIALS

Law leadership Kansas University’s new law school dean has plans to build the school’s program and reputation.

K

ansas University appears to have landed a winner with the selection of Stephen W. Mazza as the new dean of the School of Law. Hopefully, other current or future search efforts at KU will be as successful.

Mazza has been acting dean since Gail Agrawal left to become dean of the University of Iowa School of Law in July 2010. He was named permanent dean last week.

Mazza has an excellent academic background, studying law at the University of Alabama and New York University. He has practiced tax law in a large Atlanta firm and served as an acting professor at New York University. His book — “Tax Controversies: Practice and Procedure” — written with Leandra Lederman, is considered a definitive text on tax procedure and tax litigation.

He joined KU in 1998 and, since becoming acting dean, has been traveling throughout the state and the country telling the story of the KU School of Law. The school continues to be well respected and is considered a top-tier public law school

by U.S. News & World Report. But enrollment is down, and the school is facing competition in the region from the law schools at Washburn University and the University of MissouriKansas City. Given that competition, increasing enrollment at the KU law school may not be as important as ensuring that the school provides a high quality legal education to its students.

What matters most is improving the school’s excellence. He says he will work to increase scholarship offerings to help attract outstanding students.

The law school faculty is enthusiastically supporting Mazza’s selection as dean. In turn, he pledges to improve their compensation, which will help to attract and retain top professors.

Mazza is eager to do what he can to build the school of law into a true regional and national leadership position. His plans for the future put him in a good position to reach those goals.

While revolutionary fever sweeps through the Arab world, the Mideast peace process remains frozen.

President Obama, burned by early peace efforts, is preoccupied with myriad other problems. Israeli leaders are struggling, with scant enthusiasm, to turn out a new peace proposal.

Uncertainty about the outcome of the Arab Spring makes Israel and Washington uneasy about resuming peace efforts.

But Mideast events are moving so swiftly that inaction carries greater risks.

As Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said last month, Israel will face “a diplomaticpolitical tsunami” in September: If the peace process remains inert, the United Nations will probably vote to recognize a Palestinian state encompassing all of the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem. “Paralysis, rhetoric, inaction will deepen the isolation of Israel,” Barak says.

So it’s significant that a group of prominent Israelis, including former heads of the Mossad and Shin Bet (the external and internal intelligence services), have just put forward a new peace plan in hopes of prodding their government.

The group, which also includes former military men, scholars, and businessmen, said it was responding to the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative, a groundbreaking proposal that never got traction in Israel. That plan called on all Arab states to recognize Israel in exchange for an Israeli withdrawal to the 1967 borders and a settlement of the Palestinian refugee issue on which both sides agree.

The Israeli group is calling for a Palestinian state in the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem, with small territorial swaps. It also calls for Israel to return the Golan Heights. The quid pro quo

Trudy Rubin trubin@phillynews.com

However, the Israeli “initiative reminds us that

there are negotiating precedents to build on. It makes no sense to start over from scratch, as Netanyahu has tried to do, and reject progress made by previous Israeli leaders. Nor would it make sense for Netanyahu to propose — as many expect — that an interim Palestinian state be declared on little more than 40 percent of West Bank land (minus East Jerusalem). This would only reaffirm an untenable status quo.”

would be an end to all Arab claims against Israel and full peace.

One of the plan’s backers, former Shin Bet director Yaakov Perry, told the Jerusalem Post that the West Bank status quo presented a mortal threat to Israelis. He says the group wants to counter Israel’s growing international isolation and dispel the notion that the Jewish state is opposed to peace talks.

I think this Israeli initiative serves other important purposes as well.

First, it reminds us that the only territorial basis for an Israeli-Palestinian peace is the 1967 borders with small adjustments. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects this framework, saying it predetermines the final outcome. But this is the basis on which previous Israeli leaders conducted talks for more than a decade.

This is also the basis on which Netanyahu’s predecessor, Ehud Olmert, came close to a deal with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in 2008.

Few Americans are aware of the progress Olmert and Abbas made on defining a future Palestinian state’s borders: Olmert suggested Israel keep 6.3 percent of West Bank land so as to hold on to some settlements, and Abbas offered 1.9 percent, with a compromise possible.

The two sides were hung up over whether Israel would keep the large settlement of Ariel, which protrudes like a finger into the waist of the West Bank and makes territorial contiguity difficult.

Olmert and Abbas also agreed that a Palestinian state would be demilitarized, possibly with NATO troops on its border with Jordan. They agreed that Jerusalem would include the sovereign capitals of both states, and they came up with the creative idea of assigning control of Jerusalem’s holy places to a committee of five countries: Palestine, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the United States, and Israel.

The two leaders were still working on the thorny issue of refugees (on which much progress had been made during negotiations when Barak was prime minister, in 2000 and early 2001). Unfortunately, the talks petered out after Olmert announced he would step down

due to a corruption investigation, and after the 2008 Gaza war began.

However, the Israeli initiative reminds us that there are negotiating precedents to build on. It makes no sense to start over from scratch, as Netanyahu has tried to do, and reject progress made by previous Israeli leaders. Nor would it make sense for Netanyahu to propose — as many expect — that an interim Palestinian state be declared on little more than 40 percent of West Bank land (minus East Jerusalem). This would only reaffirm an untenable status quo.

And, finally, the new Israeli plan reminds us that the Arab Peace Initiative is still alive — barely. Its chief sponsor, Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah, is still on his throne, but old and ill. His support is critical, but he might not be around for much longer.

Many will argue, of course, that the downfall of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, and other uncertainties in the region, make it too dangerous for Israel to gamble territory for peace.

Perry, the former intelligence chief, begs to differ.

He argues that, under current conditions, Israel won’t have the option of standing still, so it is better to get in front of international pressure. He believes that the Arab upheavals have created “an excellent opportunity” for Israel to present new ideas that may appeal to an emerging generation of Arab reformers.

Israel does not have the luxury of “sitting on the sidelines anymore,” he told the Jerusalem Post. There are big risks involved, but they are not as great as the risks of doing nothing.

I believe he is right.

Oh, so dry. The fluid that made Milwaukee famous, together with a choice assortment of similar beverages, had been inopportunely YEARS seized by the hateful police just at the banquet AGO hour. The silver and glassware were glittering in IN 1911 tempting array and the place cards were just being laid, when Chief Herd and his squadron descended unexpectedly upon 911 Mass. and unceremoniously emptied the refrigerator of at least eight quarts of Schlitz, six quarts of fine old wine, and forty-eight quarts of Pearl Springs whiskey. … Before the banquet closed, some of the participants ripped the screening of the vault window at headquarters and recovered the six quarts of wine."

To the editor: We are asking the committee for renaming the current “Central Junior High School” to please return the name “Liberty Memorial” to this school.

Liberty Memorial Middle School only changes ONE word from the original tribute name, Liberty Memorial High School.

LMHS was built in memory of the 19 Lawrence High School students and alumni who died during World War I, in battle, from wounds or from the severe flu epidemic of 1918. Bronze plaques on either side of the auditorium stage display the names of these brave men, and a collage of the students’ photos is displayed in the front hallway. Liberty Memorial is a historical and meaningful name, not just a directional name, as the other junior highs use.

The 19 Lawrence students and alumni gave their lives while they were in their teens or 20s. These brave young men are buried in cemeteries in France, in America and even in Oak Hill Cemetery here in Lawrence. Please honor the memory of students by keeping “Liberty Memorial” (which is etched in stone about the front doors) as the everlasting name for this school.

At the beginning of each school year, the principal tells new students about the history and significance of the school’s name and their responsibilities to honor its history. I hope that at the opening assembly this fall, 88 years after the school’s opening, the principal will continue to educate students about the origin of their school and the continued pride they should feel in attending “Liberty Memorial Middle School.”

Mary Demeritt Gordon, Lawrence, and 16 other LMHS graduates

Defiant act To the editor: We have heard about the burning of the Quran by a Rev. Jones in Florida. I must report that he did nothing that Muslims don’t do with a Quran that is old, worn out, incomplete and useless.

In his act of burning it, he has made himself old, worn out, incomplete and useless. A true man of God, regardless of the faith he practices, would never destroy a book revered by another religion. A real man of God would have self respect and fear of God. I don’t believe that Rev. Jones understands what that means. He knew that his foolish action meant that a few hundred people would die; some of his own faith. As a Muslim, I am not angered or astonished by his actions. Instead, I am weary of the constant bashing of Mus-

lims and fear of Islam. Yes, we know there are those who have hijacked it and have committed terrible and despicable crimes against others. We hate that, too.

But all of us, like millions of other Americans, want to live in peace and harmony with our neighbors and are good citizens in this land of the free.

We totally and unequivocally disparage the actions of those terrorists who have stolen our religion. But Rev. Jones, in his ignorance, has burned our holy book as a show of defiance. Like all actions we make, it is God who shall judge on what is right and what is wrong.

It promised that in the book he burned.

David L. Omar, Lawrence

Misinformation To the editor: I feel I must respond to Kent Hayes’ letter of April 5.

In my opinion, one reason this country is deteriorating at an alarming rate is that misinformation is tossed about without any verification as long as it fits someone’s political agenda. Second, American voters accept the information as gospel simply because it comes from a media source.

For example, Hayes states, in regard to income taxes, that “General Electric and several of the oil companies paid nothing and received billions in rebates.” This is simply fabrication, but was accepted because it was reported by the “credible” New York Times. It has been corrected by several sources, including CNNMoney.com (“The truth about GE’s tax bill,” April 4).

Hayes goes on to state that Sam Brownback, Lynn Jenkins and all our other GOP legislators are “the puppets who make the laws that permit this outrage” and “our existing economic woes are a direct result of Republican policies.”

It was recently discovered that tucked away in Obama’s national health care law is a provision that has already paid nearly $2 billion to unions (surprise), state public employee systems, and large corporations to subsidize health insurance for early retirees (WashingtonExaminer.com, April 5).

As I recall, there was not a single GOP vote to pass this monstrosity.

Finally, it was the Democratic party that abdicated one of Congress’ most basic functions: passing a federal budget. Now, according to the White House press secretary, “time is of the essence” to avoid a government shutdown. This dog won’t hunt any more. There are too many channels to access the truth rather than accepting “credible” drivel.

Woodland at Masters

KU MEN’S BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

‘Blasters’ steal spotlight

NBA bound

His college coach at Kansas University, Ross Randall, watched the Masters coverage with wife Linda from their winter home in Boynton Beach, Fla., and his mind wandered to the days Gary Woodland, a strapping athlete who could crush a golf ball, worked so hard at polishing the rough edges.

“I can remember all those times we’d stand on the putting green (at Alvamar), freezing our behinds off, moving snow off the green so he could putt,” Randall said.

Woodland’s sunny Masters debut got off to a rough start Thursday. His bogey on No. 10 put him at 3-over par, where he remained through 12. Oh well, at least he qualified.

Eagle, par, birdie, near-ace birdie, birdie, birdie. Six-under par over the final six holes.

Tied for seventh with a 69. One stroke ahead of Phil Mickelson.

Two strokes in front of Tiger Woods. Are we all dreaming, or is this really happening?

Mashing drives. Attacking pins. Draining putts. Golf announcers jacked beyond belief, marveling at how much fun Woodland, 26, Venezuelan Jhonattan Vegas, 26, and Spaniard Alvaro Quiros, 28, were having while tearing up the back nine of Augusta National. One referred to them as “blasters.”

The Blasters and one much younger star stole the show on the first day of the greatest golf tournament. They fed off each other’s hot putters and fistbumped. Quiros shot a 33-32— 65 — his previous best score at Nick Krug/Journal-World File Photo Augusta National was 75 — and KANSAS FORWARD MARCUS MORRIS, LEFT, AND MARKIEFF MORRIS CONGRATULATE each other in this file photo is tied for the lead with Irefrom the Jayhawks’ victory against Iowa State on Feb. 12 Allen Fieldhouse.

When Woodland stood over a long putt on No. 17, Randall kept his fingers crossed, hoping for a two-putt. Woodland drained it, and Randall turned to Linda:

Fresh faces lead Masters AUGUSTA, GA. (AP) — The flair of Rory McIlroy. The sheer power of Alvaro Quiros. These are but two of the fresh faces in golf who offered more evidence Thursday at the Masters that a new generation is on the way.

And that’s only going to make it tougher on Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods.

The 21-year-old McIlroy, who opened with a 63 at St. Andrews last summer in the British Open, again delivered exquisite shots on one of golf’s biggest stages for a 7-under 65. It was such a clean round that he didn’t make a bogey and was left wondering how much lower he could have gone if not for missing five birdie chances inside 10 feet.

“It wasn’t maybe as exclusive or spectacular as the 63 at St. Andrews,” he said. “But it was very solid from start to finish.”

Then came Quiros, a 28-yearold Spaniard whom many consider the longest hitter in the game. Blasting away on a course where he had never shot better than 75, he spun an approach back to three feet on the 18th hole to catch McIlroy atop the leaderboard.

They had a two-shot lead over a pair of South Koreans, former PGA champion Y.E. Yang and K.J. Choi.

Quiros was in the final group of the day, and it was as explosive as there is in the game. He was joined by former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland and Jhonattan Vegas, two Augusta newcomers who qualified in recent months with their first PGA Tour win — more examples of a shift toward youth, two players built more for football and basketball than for golf.

They all bash it, and did they ever put on a show.

They combined to make 10 birdies and two eagles over the last six holes, enough reason for the gallery to stick around even as Woods was long gone and Mickelson was on the practice range in the fading sunlight.

Woodland, who played Division II basketball for one year, played his final six holes in 6under par for a 69. Vegas, such an exciting young player that his colleagues call him “Johnny Please see MASTERS, page 5B

LeBron James’ mother arrested M I A M I B E A C H , F LA . (AP ) — The mother of Miami Heat basketball star LeBron James was arrested by Miami Beach police after she was accused of assaulting a valet worker because it was taking too long to have her car delivered.

Police said Gloria James had a strong odor of alcohol on her breath, and her eyes were bloodshot when officers arrived at the

hotel about 4:47 a.m. Thursday.

She was released with a promise to appear on charges of simple battery and disorderly conduct.

Closing arguments wrap up in Bonds trial SAN FRANCISCO — The eight women and four men sat in the jury box for more than 41⁄2 hours, listening to angry arguments from federal prosecutors and Barry Bonds’ attorneys at the end of a 12-day trial that exposed the dark world of baseball’s Steroids Era. Now, Bonds’ fate is up to them.

After listening to tawdry accusations of drug use, theft and body parts that grew (Bonds’ head) and shrank (his testicles), the 12-member panel gets to decide whether the home run king will become a convicted felon.

Bonds’ trial on charges he lied to a grand jury more than seven years ago when he denied knowingly using performanceenhancing drugs ended Thursday with closing arguments from both sides that were filled with virulence and self-righteousness.

The jury’s first order of business when it starts Bonds deliberations today — the day the World Series flag is raised at nearby AT&T Park, home of Bonds’ San Francisco Giants — is to elect a foreman. Then it must sort through the testimony of 25 witnesses and hundreds of exhibits that include syringes, vials and dizzying computer graphs of drug tests.

By Doug Tucker Associated Press Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, MO. — Look who’s leading the AL Central. It’s none other than the Kansas City Royals, the youngest and poorest team in the majors.

After a wacky week that included four wins in their final at-bat, the surprising Royals are 4-2 and feeling cocky. They’ve stolen more bases than any other team in the majors, and they’ve already eclipsed their longest winning streak (three games) since September 2009.

A one-time phenom that many people were about to give up on — Alex Gordon — is batting .379 with six extra-base hits. A couple of rookies in the bullpen have been nearly unhittable. A young shortstop who came over from Milwaukee in the Zack Greinke trade made a spectacular defensive play that probably saved one of their comefrom-behind wins.

And please do not say it’s early. To longsuffering fans who’ve endured losing records 16 of the past 17 seasons, it’s late.

At the very least, it’s about time.

“We’ve been coming out to about 15 or 20 games a year for I don’t know how long,” said Sal Luper, sitting in the right field bleachers at a recent game, a big “K.C.” on his cap. “Finally, it looks like they’re going to start creating some real excitement.

Finally. I don’t know how long it’ll last, but I like the way this team plays.”

So does Ned Yost, their tough-minded manager.

“They were playing great baseball all through the spring and they’ve brought it up here with them,” Yost said.

A former Milwaukee manager, Yost believes in being aggressive. It’s an attitude that seems to align perfectly with the spirit and mettle of a team whose opening day average age of 27. 2 makes them the youngest in the majors.

The Royals took Thursday off before heading for Detroit with a major-leagueleading 14 stolen bases. Nobody else was even close.

Their record was a half-game ahead of the White Sox in the AL Central entering Thursday’s play.

Their confidence, in spite of a 12-inning, 10-7 loss to Chicago on Wednesday, was soaring.

“I’ve never had more fun playing baseball than I’ve had this week,” said Billy Butler, the designated hitter who’s also off to a good start with a .364 average and two home runs. “This team just feels like it will find a way to win. We never give up.”

The Royals are not just young. Their payroll of a little more than $36 million also makes them the lowest-paid. But that seems only to add to a never-say-die attitude that’s already produced two walkoff home runs.

If they had managed to bring in runners in the 10th or 11th inning on Wednesday, the Royals would have set an American League record with five straight wins in their last at-bat to start a season.

“The guys here know they can play at this level,” said catcher Matt Treanor, who came over from Texas in the final days of spring training and brings valuable World Series experience to a fuzzy-cheeked clubhouse.

“Young guys know they can pitch and compete and the guys who have been around a little bit help them feel comfortable at this level.”

It was Treanor and first baseman Kila Ka’aihue who treated hope-starved fans to those walkoff homers in the season-opening series against the Angels.

“We’re not going to be intimidated by anybody,” Treanor said. “If we go out and play our game every day, we’re going to have a lot of wins.”

LeBron James said after the Heat practiced Thursday afternoon.

“It’s a personal matter. It’s being taken care of.”

Police said several witnesses supported valet worker Sorel Rockfeller’s account of the alleged assault. LeBron James said people are helping his mother with the situation, and that he was not at the hotel with her early Thursday.

MLB Twins’ Nishioka breaks fibula NEW YORK — The Twins’ heralded Japanese import, Tsuyoshi Nishioka, broke his left fibula after the Yankees’ Nick Swisher slid into him at second base while breaking up a double play in Minnesota’s 4-3 loss on Thursday afternoon.

Nishioka was placed on the 15-day disabled list, and he will be examined by Dr. John Steubs today in Minnesota as the Twins determine how long he will be out.

Closer Lidge targeting midseason PHILADELPHIA — Phillies closer Brad Lidge says he’s still hoping to return by the All-Star break.

Lidge has been sidelined since spring training due to a strained right rotator cuff. When Lidge was shut down last month, the team said he wouldn’t pick up a baseball for three to six weeks. That meant once he returned, he’d have to work his arm into throwing shape.

Lidge said Thursday that if there are no serious setbacks, he plans to rejoin Philadelphia by midseason.

HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL 50-run rout in Texas prompts change DALLAS — Last month, Richardson Lake Highlands High School in Texas beat another prep baseball team by more than 50 runs.

Highlands and Dallas Samuell play again tonight.

The first game ended either 53-0 or 57-0, like the winning coach tallied it up. Either way, it was the most lopsided game in state history.

It has already led to a change in the mercy rules in the local school district. Games can now be called if there’s a 15-run margin after three innings.

HIGH SCHOOL SOFTBALL

LHS splits with O-Northwest

By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

After hitting an RBI triple to beat vaunted Olathe Northwest in the 11th inning on Thursday, Lawrence High senior catcher Kristen Bell just stood on third base.

She looked confused.

“I knew we scored the winning run, but I was like, ‘Am I gonna get called out if I step off?’” Bell said. “So I wasn’t taking any risks.”

Once Bell was swarmed by teammates storming from the Lions’ dugout, she had no choice but to step off.

Bell’s RBI gave the Lions a 2-1 victory in Game One. The Lions fell, 5-0, in Game Two, but coach Reenie Stogsdill said her players should recognize that they can play with anybody like she has been telling them all season.

The Lions (4-4) led, 1-0, going into the seventh inning of Game One, but nearly gave the game away.

The Ravens’ Mikayla Warren singled to open the inning.

After a pitch to the next batter bounced in the dirt, Warren took off toward second base, drawing a throw from Bell.

The ball squirted out of shortstop Marly Carmona’s glove and scooted past center fielder Megan Wilson covering the throw.

Warren raced all the way home, scoring the tying run.

“I can just tell you that I’m so happy that we won that game because I would have

LHS pitcher Lauren Massey went 11 innings for the win, striking out seven.

O-Northwest’s Jacinda Ramos, who will pitch at UMKC next year, struck out 14 in the loss.

Bell said everyone on the

team desperately wanted the win.

“It really helps our confidence,” Bell said. “I mean, we just played one of the best teams in the state and beat them.”

In the second game, the Ravens scored three runs off Massey and didn’t look back.

bogey on the first two holes to begin his round.

LHS junior Logan Henrichs shot a team-low 78, which he felt could have been even lower were it not for a few missed chances in the short game, including back-to-back bogeys to end his round.

“Actually, I don’t think I hit a bad drive today,” Henrichs said with a grin.

Devon Weber (85), Conner Henrichs (87), Blake VonBlaricum (92), Robbie Andrews (97) and Rito Mendez (99) rounded out the Lions’ scoring.

Two newcomers to varsity competition, Weber and Conner Henrichs, were singled out for their performances by coach Dirk Wedd.

“Overall it’s a good start for us,” Wedd said.

“We got three pretty good innings out of her, so hopefully that’ll build her confidence and help us later in the year,” Stogsdill said.

And though the Lions have split all four doubleheaders this season, Thursday’s split felt a lot different.

“A win like that is so fun,” Bell said.

Since the Lions had to go extra innings to pick up the win, they won’t have a full practice today. That doesn’t mean they’ll be slacking off, though.

“These kids have the best work ethic of any team I’ve ever had, and so I think if they just keep working hard, good things are going to happen,” Stogsdill said.

Boston Massacre: Sox start 0-6 ————

Cleveland’s suicide squeeze sinks Boston, 1-0 The Associated Press

Indians 1, Red Sox 0 C L E V E L A N D — In a season where nothing has gone right, the winless Red Sox found a new way to lose Thursday.

A couple of them, in fact.

The Red Sox lost their sixth in a row when the Cleveland squeezed home the only run in the eighth inning, then trapped pinch-runner Darnell McDonald off second base for the final out in a one-run victory.

“It can’t get any worse than this, and there’s only one way to go,” third baseman Kevin Youkilis said.

“That’s up.”

At 0-6, the Red Sox are off their worst start since 1945, when they lost a team-record Tony Dejak/AP Photo eight straight. Boston, favored by many to win the World BOSTON THIRD BASEMAN KEVIN YOUKILIS, RIGHT, CAN’T HOLD ONTO THE BALL as Cleveland’s Series, returns to Fenway Park Travis Buck slides safely into third base in the third inning.

WR Henry signs CFL deal

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Former Kansas University wide receiver Marcus Henry, a key member of KU’s 2008 Orange Bowl championship team, has a new home north of the border.

Henry, 6-foot-4, 210 pounds, signed with the Edmonton Eskimos of the Canadian Football League on Tuesday. He joined the CFL after a three-year stint in the NFL, during which he spent two years on the New York Jets’ practice squad and a portion of last season with the Carolina Panthers.

Though he never found his way onto an active NFL roster, it appears big things could be in Henry’s future in Canada.

“We’re very pleased to sign Marcus,” Eskimos GM Eric Tillman said. “He’s a big smooth target, a legitimate 64 receiver who should create some matchup problems for opposing teams. As the old saying goes, ‘You can’t coach

Mickelson and Woods, with six green jackets between them in the last decade, blended in more than they stood out.

Woods played in the morning in only a moderate breeze, ideal conditions for scoring.

But he lost his way starting the back nine with consecutive bogeys, made only one birdie on the par 5s and had to settle for a 71.

“I would rather be where Rory’s at,” Woods said. “But, hey, it’s a long way to go. We have a long grind ahead of us.

size,’ and Marcus is not only tall, but he also plays big.”

Henry, a sixth-round pick of the Jets in the 2008 NFL Draft, played four seasons at Kansas, including a senior year in which he started all 13 games for the 12-1 Jayhawks and finished with 1,014 yards and 10 touchdowns. It was as much his time at KU as his time in the NFL that caught Tillman’s eye.

“During his career at Kansas, Marcus caught quite a few contested balls utilizing his height and jumping skills,” Tillman said. “Upgrading our receiving corps was one of our top offseason priorities, and we feel signing Marcus is another step in the right direction.”

Henry was in Lawrence last month as he attended KU’s pro day and mingled with former teammates. He’ll join the Eskimos immediately and will begin preparing for the team’s season opener, which is slated for June 17.

for former KU football players this weekend, many of whom will be in town to attend the Saturday wedding of former KU safety Darrell Stuckey and Lacie Reed, the older sister of KU basketball player Tyrel Reed.

Stuckey, who was drafted in the fourth round by the San Diego Chargers in the 2010 NFL Draft, spent most of last year living in Southern California, helping to plan the wedding from afar. He’s been back in Lawrence, working out and talking wedding, since late January, and the two Jayhawks will be married Saturday afternoon in Lawrence.

Stuckey said the couple invited more than 300 people to the ceremony — many of them former teammates — and joked that they’d have to have bouncers at the door to make sure people didn’t crash the event.

fers — there are a couple of other noticeable changes to the 2011 spring football roster.

Four players are listed at different positions than they were on the 2010 roster: Tyler Hunt, a junior from Lawrence, has moved from fullback to tight end; Randall Dent, a sophomore from Grand Prairie, Texas, has moved from defensive tackle to offensive line; Kevin Young, a sophomore from Olathe, has moved from defensive end to defensive tackle; and Keba Agostinho, a sophomore from Katy, Texas, also has moved from defensive end to defensive tackle.

One curious thing about the new roster is that, despite roughly six months having passed since the last one was released, the heights and weights of all returning players were the same. Those numbers are likely to change when the official season rosRoster changes ter is released, as several playIn addition to the presence ers appear to have added or Stuckey set to tie the knot of a handful of new names — dropped weight in the offseaLawrence will be a hotbed some walk-ons, some trans- son.

to warm up and I’m sure they will start making the pins a little more difficult as the week goes on. I’m right there in the ballgame. I’m only six back, and as I said, we’ve got a lot of golf ahead of us.”

Mickelson was far more erratic off the tee, hitting tee shots into the Georgia pines and spraying one so far into the azaleas left of the 13th fairway that he looked like he was on an Easter egg hunt as he searched for his ball. He hit only four fairways, last in the field of 99 players.

As always, his superb chipping kept him from dropping shots on three straight holes around the turn. His only mistake came on the 18th, when he hit his approach into the gallery left of the green and chipped too hard, missing a 7foot par putt for a 70.

I am 72 years old and wear a size 8. The things that fit me are too young by 40 years and don’t go with my gray hair. I would look silly in that stuff.

If my daughter doesn’t like it, it’s her problem, not mine. -Skinny Old Lady

Dear Skinny: We think you should dress as you please, their lives. But it is horren- but an occasional update can dously unfair to expect the do wonders for attitude. surviving spouse to remain There are appropriate clothes locked in a mourning period that does not allow future happiness with someone else.

Cathy’s children are being particularly nasty by publicly deriding her.

However, please urge Cathy not to rush into anything. She is lonely and vulnerable to marrying for the wrong reasons. She should take her time to get to know this man better, allow her children and family members to understand his character, and make every effort to let all of them accept him. Of course, the final decision about marriage should be hers. anniesmailbox@comcast.net

Singing talent from the fresh to the familiar After a series of auditions in Los Angeles, Nashville, Dallas and Austin, 10 worthies compete on “CMT’s Next Superstar” (8 p.m., CMT). The five men and women singer/songwriters vie to be “discovered” and coached into becoming an emerging country artist. They range in age from 22 to 50 and will perform before a series of celebrity talent scouts. Thea Andrews (“Entertainment Tonight,” “Top Chef Canada”) hosts. ● In other musical news, “Foo Fighters” (9 p.m., Vh1) traces the 16-year history of the band and includes some clips of Dave Grohl’s earlier days as the drummer for Nirvana and how Grohl, Chris Shiflett, Nate Mendel, Taylor Hawkins and Pat Smear united as a band. We also sit in with the Foo Fighters as they assemble their new album in Grohl’s garage. ● When British rockers The Who declared, “I hope I die before I get old,” they had no idea of the employment opportunities for venerable rock ’n’ rollers. Ringo Starr, now 70, probably broke ground for those who would follow when he assumed the voice of “Thomas the Tank Engine” in a British cartoon debuting in 1984.

Tonight, Ozzy Osbourne adds to his numerous television credits as the voice of The Earth Troll in a new episode of “Fish Hooks” (7:30 p.m., Disney). The Earth Troll is actually a character dreamed up by Oscar to scare Milo into becoming more environmentally sensitive and embrace the practice of recycling. ● You may know him from such shows as “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?”) but tonight Jeff Foxworthy takes a seat on “Shark Tank” (7 p.m., ABC) not as an entertainer but as an “entrepreneur.” And while we’re in the land of make-believe, we’re also treated to the sight of former “Sopranos” star Vincent Pastore as the first entertainer to pitch a business idea.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Friday, April 8: This year, opportunities keep tumbling into your path. On one side is a spoiled little kid who feels the power and abundance of these opportunities. On the other side is an adult who makes strong, solid choices. Which is your path? If you are single, you could have a lot of fun dating, though you might not always be in love with this or that person! If you are attached, the two of you can be found cooing more often together! Gemini understands you well.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ The path of abundance easily leads to excess. You will note that that also might be true of emotions. Tonight: Making the most of every minute.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★ You might be surprised by everything that goes on around you.

Though you would like to join in, perhaps the sure bet is to observe. Tonight: Join a pal. (TGIF!) Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★★ You hit your month's power days. Can anyone stop a ball rolling

downhill? Yes, and you could hit a bump or two.

Tonight: On a roll, so to speak.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★ You might want to try another approach or do something vaguely different. Your path seems convoluted to some, but what counts is you know why you are heading this way.

Tonight: Play it low-key.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★ Emphasize the collective rather than the individual. You will find many answers and responses. Tonight: Just be yourself.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ You make your way best by assuming responsibility for everything that involves you.

Tonight: Follow through on a call first.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★★ You sway from one opinion to another. Though some people might see this seesaw activity as a problem, it only reflects your ability to grasp and incorporate both sides of an issue. Tonight: Split as fast as humanly possible.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★ The best approach might be to let someone else lead and show his or her true colors.

Dear Annie: My sister-inlaw, “Cathy,” has been a widow for more than 18 months. Before her husband passed, they lost a young son in a tragic accident.

Cathy recently met a divorced man through a church site for singles and is the happiest I’ve seen in a long time. The problem is her adult children. They are attacking her on Facebook with snide remarks, calling her crazy and saying she needs to be committed. We have told them their mother is happy and they should let her move on with her life, but it falls on deaf ears.

I feel it is no one’s business (including these children) what Cathy chooses to do. She is anxious for the family to meet this gentleman, and he is so taken with her that he is ready to get married after six months of church preparations.

When her husband died, Cathy was in a sad situation, financially and emotionally.

She is heartbroken about her children’s attitude and disrespect. What do you think? — Hoping She Finds Happiness and a Companion

Roundup The Associated Press

Bulls 97, Celtics 81 C H I C A G O — Derrick Rose scored 30 points, and the Bulls closed in on the top seed in the Eastern Conference by beating Boston on Thursday.

The Bulls’ 17th win in 19 games put them four games up on Boston and Miami with four to play and eliminated the Heat from getting the No. 1 seed.

The Celtics, who play the Heat on Sunday, still have a mathematical shot albeit a remote one.

But barring a collapse, Chicago will be the top seed in the East.

It’s another step for a team that expected big things after a major overhaul, and all the Bulls have done is deliver their best season since Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen made cham-

Crossovers

Nicolas Batum added 21 to lead Portland over Utah.

Wallace scored 20 points in the second half as the Blazers wore down the injury-hampered Jazz, who had only nine healthy players.

The win moved Portland (4633) into sole possession of the sixth spot in the Western Conference. The Blazers are a half game ahead of New Orleans.
