THE CITY OF EUDORA GETS ITS WATER from wells under land that is owned by Lois Hamilton, who in 2003 began letting the city drill waterwells on her property. Those nine wells pump 195 million gallons of water a year and provide the residents of Eudora with all their drinking water.

t has been 44 years since Lois Hamilton really called these parts home.

But as she drives along the rutted roads that criss-cross the flat farm fields that are nestled between the Wakarusa and the Kaw north of Eudora, she still has a story for every piece of land.

Hamilton, 72, will point at a pickup truck in a driveway and tell a story about its owner. She’ll point at a plowed field and tell you who owns it. She’ll point at another and tell you about the banker who financed it.

But the story she lingers on the longest is about her father’s hand. She points at the 90-acre field that is now hers but once was her father’s. Fred Neis farmed about 3,000 acres in and around the Kansas River valley. He did it with a fourthgrade education, and with the help of Hamilton’s mother, who taught him how to read.

And he did it with a happy hand, so to speak.

“I remember how he would bring his deep plow over to

“

Lois is just an example of a genuinely civic-minded individual who cares about the community. She grew up here, owned businesses here, got her start here, and went on to have a wildly successful career. But she never forgot where she is from, and she always has taken steps to ensure the city has what it needs.”

— Eudora City Administrator John Harrenstein help out a neighbor,” Hamilton said. “The neighbors would always come out and ask him how much they owed him. And he would just wave his hand and say, ‘Not a thing, not a thing.’ He always would just wave his hand.”

The 90-acre field is now dotted with nine blue wellpipes that stick a couple of feet above the fertile soil.

Hamilton in 2003 began letting the city of Eudora drill water wells on the property.

The city owns the few square feet that each well sits upon, and the water rights that go with each well.

Those nine wells pump 195 million gallons of water a year, and provide the residents of Eudora with all their drinking water. For this,

Harrenstein, who has been on the job in Eudora for less than two years, became acquainted with Hamilton when she called him and said she thought it was time for her to donate another well to the city.

know what to think. In this job, it is kind of like getting a Monopoly card that says ‘Advance to Go.’” City managers can spend a lot of time worrying about matters such as where a city will get its water in the future.

Some cities out in Western Kansas have such concerns that they give their residents free rain barrels. In the eastern part of the state, scarcity isn’t yet such an issue, but the water is usually far from free.

Cities and rural water districts often pay the state thousands upon thousands of dollars each year to access water rights in rivers like the Kaw or lakes like Clinton. If you try to get your water from private wells, that usually comes at a hefty price to purchase the resource-rich land.

“There is obviously a financial benefit,” Harrenstein said, although Eudora residents do pay a fee for water service since the city still has treatment and distribution costs to cover. “But the real benefit is we have somebody who really wants to work with us.

Mayor to send letter urging K-10 cable barriers

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Add the city of Lawrence to the list of organizations and individuals calling for more safety measures to be added to Kansas Highway 10 following an April 16 double fatality crash.

City commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting unanimously agreed to have Mayor Aron Cromwell send a letter to state officials supporting the idea of adding cable barriers to the median of the highway.

“It is hard when we’re reacting to a tragedy,” Cromwell said, “but the intention is to prevent the next one.”

Cainan Shutt, a Eudora preschooler, and 24-year old Ryan M. Pittman, also of Eudora, died in the crash when Pittman’s eastbound Toyota Camry crossed the grassy median near the Church Street interchange into the westbound lanes and struck a minivan driven by Cainan’s step-grandfather, Danny Basel.

Gov. Sam Brownback on Monday sent a directive to the Kansas Department of Transportation ordering the agency to immediately reopen a study into a cable barrier system for the road. His directive also ordered that a local task fore be formed.

City commissioners on Tuesday said they felt it still was important for Lawrence to make its voice heard, and Cromwell said the letter would urge the state to take a broad look at safety issues on the highway.

Leavenworth County Undersheriff Ron Cranor said Monday his department is awaiting a coroner’s report regarding the death of Bret A. Clark, 48, Bonner Springs. He died April 11 at Kansas University Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., according to a recent notification from the coroner to the sheriff’s office.

Clark was injured in a motorcycle accident about 4 p.m.

“I won’t tell you what I sold it for,” she says with a laugh.

Hamilton left Eudora three weeks after her father died at the age of 59. She had just married a husband who was sick and would get sicker. She needed to make a living. She had taken classes at various business schools, and one of her former classmates was looking for a business partner.

Come to find out, Hamilton had a knack for understanding property. She would be part of many business ventures over the years — she was an owner of the Eudora lumberyard, took over struggling hardware stores, and for years bought and sold distressed hotel properties.

Even though she left Eudora at age 27, it is still the longest place she has ever lived.

“Most of my life I lived in a hotel room for a few weeks or a few months,” Hamilton said. “Eudora is still the main place in my heart.”

Now semi-retired, she lives in Hot Springs, Ark. Lately, though, she’s been spending more time in Eudora.

Hamilton emerged as one of the chief opponents of a plan to build a sand plant operation on 196 acres across the road from her property and the city’s well field. She recently sent out more than

month while the county has a cost of $543 per month. When adding another person to a plan, costs jump to $183 for the employee and $1,062 for the county.

The county provides its own insurance.

The county has 618 employees using its health insurance, with about 700 eligible for the service. The county extends coverage to various agencies, including Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department, Extension Council and townships.

County Administrator Craig Weinaug guessed that extending coverage would add seven to 10 people to the plan.

“It’s no different than if we add employees and if we add their dependents,” Plinsky said.

Weinaug said the county’s insurance is reviewed every year around this time, and that he’d spoken with employees over the years who were interested in coverage for domestic partners.

Hamilton, though, urges people not to make too much of it. Life is about lending and taking a helping hand from time to time. Hamilton has battled cancer three times, battled diabetes to the point that she once weighed 379 pounds (more than twice what she weighs today), and spent 21 days in a coma in 2005 after flipping a golf cart.

Street. “As you slide to the south, it becomes more of a warehouse look.”

But commissioners did approve the most controversial element of the plan — a drive-thru pharmacy along New Hampshire street. Several neighbors urged commissioners to reject that part of the plan, saying it would place store traffic too close to existing residences.

But a majority of commissioners said a pharmacy drive-thru wouldn’t be nearly as disruptive to neighbors as a fast-food drive thru — for instance — and commissioners said they wanted to work with Dillons to make redevelopment of the existing site feasible.

“I don’t mean any offense to the people who work there, but this is one of the worst retail centers we have in the city currently,” City Commissioner Mike Dever said. “It is just horrible. It is an island of concrete. The look there is nothing we want to preserve.

The value of these proposed improvements to the community will be tremendous.”

Commissioners approved the drive-thru portion of the plans on a 4-1 vote, with Mayor Aron Cromwell, who lives about a block from the site, opposed.

Brian Folmer, director of real estate for Dillons, said the company would work with the city’s Architectural Review Committee to try to make the west facade more appealing to commissioners.

Adding windows to the design is a possibility, although Dillons believes that will make the building less energy eff icient and could create some safety concerns by allowing light to shine into areas where meatcutting and other similar work will take place. Adding ivy to the side of the building also will be up for discussion.

— City Commissioner Mike Dever The city’s Architectural Review Committee previously had suggested adding murals to the side of the building — done by community artists — but Folmer said Dillons had experienced problems with graffiti at other sites that featured murals.

Folmer said he hoped that design changes could be approved by the city in 30 to 60 days, which would allow construction to begin shortly thereafter. The existing store will be closed and razed during the construction process.

The new store likely will take nine to 12 months to construct, Folmer said.

Several neighbors told commissioners that they supported the idea of a new Dillons on the site but believed the company was asking for too many concessions from the city.

The company already has received variances that reduced the amount of parking required and eliminated some of the building setbacks on the site.

“It is a bigger store and a taller store, and it is going to be 25 feet closer to our homes,” said Mary Wharff, president of the Barker Neighborhood Association, who opposed the drive-thru.

The proposed operators of the plant have produced studies that disagree with such assertions, but Hamilton won a victory this week when the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission recommended denial of the plant’s application.

It now goes to the Douglas County Commission.

“Oh, I’ll fight it until the end,” Hamilton said. “I’m stubborn.”

But even more than that, she said, she’s determined to keep giving Eudora water.

When she returns to the town she grew up in, it becomes harder to recognize. But that doesn’t sadden her. She wants Eudora to grow. Eventually, she would like to see it twice as large as it is today, so that it can have more of its own amenities.

“But if they’re going to grow, they’re going to need more water,” Hamilton said.

“I’ve already told them, I’ll take care of that.”

The contract with Huron Consulting Group is for up to $2.28 million if all its initiatives are implemented. It will be paid for with private funds.

The contract also provides for additional rates to pursue more initiatives if KU desires.

Huron, which is based in Chicago, will have teams working with advisory committees on the Lawrence campus and at KU Medical Center.

Using savings from the process, KU officials say they hope to be able to invest in new priorities outlined in an ongoing strategic planning effort.

Obama asking for boost in oil output As the high cost of gasoline takes a toll on politics and pocket books, President Barack Obama said Tuesday he is calling on major oil producers such as Saudi Arabia to increase their oil supplies to help stabilize prices, warning starkly that lack of relief would harm the global economy.

“We are in a lot of conversations with the major oil producers like Saudi Arabia to let them know that it’s not going to be good for them if our economy is hobbled because of high oil prices,” Obama told a Detroit TV station.

His remarks signaled a broad new appeal in the face of skyrocketing gasoline prices in the United States, and they came as he reiterated a call for Congress to repeal oil industry tax breaks.

Women surpass men in getting degrees For the first time, American women have passed men in gaining advanced college degrees as well as bachelor’s degrees, part of a trend that is helping redefine who goes off to work and who stays home with the kids.

Census figures released Tuesday highlight the latest education milestone for women, who began to exceed men in college enrollment in the early 1980s.

The findings come amid record shares of women in the workplace and a steady decline in stay-at-home mothers.

The educational gains for women are giving them greater access to a wider range of jobs, contributing to a shift of traditional gender roles at home and work. Based on one demographer’s estimate, the number of stay-at-home dads who are the primary caregivers for their children reached nearly 2 million last year, or one in 15 fathers.

Arts Commission’s future still in question

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Advocates for the Kansas Arts Commission on Tuesday said the fight to keep the commission alive is still going on.

Earlier in the 2011 legislative session, the Senate rejected an executive order by Gov. Sam Brownback that would have abolished the Arts Commission.

But the battle over funding the

agency continues as legislators reconvene the session today.

The Senate has included $698,000 in funding, but the House retains $200,000 in passthrough funding to the Kansas Arts Foundation, the newly created not-for-profit fundraiser that Brownback envisioned would replace the Arts Commission.

2010 marked record Latino voters

2 | COLORADO

Homemade bomb suspect found A man suspected of leaving a homemade bomb at a Colorado shopping mall — initially raising concerns about a possible Columbine-inspired plot — was captured Tuesday without a fight outside of a grocery store after he was spotted having coffee.

Federal and local officials allege 65-year-old Earl Albert Moore planted a pipe bomb and propane tanks in the Southwest Plaza Mall in the south Denver suburbs last week. The explosives were found April 20 after a fire in a hallway at the mall’s food court, but they didn’t detonate.

The discovery came on the 12th anniversary of the Columbine shootings, and the mall is just two miles away from the high school where teenage gunmen killed 12 students and a teacher in 1999. Both the fire and the school shootings occurred about the same time of day, and a pipe bomb and propane tanks were also found at Columbine after the shootings.

said Brownback’s support of rural economic development should extend to providing arts funding in rural areas.

“His plan to encourage people to move to those depopulating areas is admirable, but why would anyone want to live there if there is nothing for them or their families to do?” Evans asked.

More Latinos than ever voted in the November 2010 election as a relatively young population reached the voting age, a fresh sign that the fastest growing U.S. minority stands as a formidable force in electoral politics.

A study by the Pew Hispanic Center found that 6.6 million Latinos, who mainly pick Democrats, voted in 2010, up from the 5.6 million who voted in the previous contests in 2006. As a share of the electorate, Latinos made up 6.9 percent of the 96 million voters in 2010, up from 5.8 percent of the 96.1 million voters four years earlier. The center released its report on Tuesday.

Among those record voters were 600,000 Latinos who turned 18 each year between 2006 and 2010 as well as 1.4 million foreign-born adult Latinos who became U.S. citizens and therefore eligible to vote, the center said.

Storms have unleashed more than a foot of rain across the region, and the forecast offered little hope for relief. Another, larger system was brewing along the same path, bringing several more days of rain and the possibility of tornadoes.

Despite the punishment the region has already endured, the weather was expected to get worse — and soon. Another line of storms moving through Oklahoma and Texas carried the same threat of tornadoes and flooding but over a broader area that stretched from Dallas to Louisiana and up to Memphis.

The storm system dumped heavy rain on seven states and spawned at least one tornado Monday in Arkansas. The twister killed four people and blasted a path of destruction through the town of Vilonia, 25 miles north of Little Rock. Six others died in floods.

Massages to raise funds for survivors in Richmond fire

She worked two jobs and attended classes three times a week at WellSpring School of Allied Health, 947 N.H. But early Monday, her life changed dramatically. A fire roared through her house in Richmond, killing her husband and three of her four children.

Students at WellSpring are banding together to raise money to help pay for hospital bills and funerals of the four family members.

— Madeleine McGeorge, a classmate of Ashley Schendel, who lost her husband and three of her four children in a Richmond house fire early Monday Practicing massage therapists will give 10-minute chair massages for a minimum $15 donation from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Thursday at the school.

“It feels good to be doing something. Yesterday when I found out, I felt really useless,”

said Madeleine McGeorge, one of Schendel’s classmates.

The fire at Schendel’s house was reported about 1:40 a.m.

Monday, and by the time firefighters arrived, the house was engulfed in flames. Ashley Schendel, 25, and 9-year-old Alexis Best escaped the fire. Schendel’s husband, Bryce, 25, as well as Zoey Schendel, 5 months, Jace Best, 6, and Ayden Best, 5, died.

McGeorge, 20, said Schendel hoped to open her own massage therapy business with her sisterin-law about a block from her home. Schendel worked two jobs in nursing homes and traveled almost 50 miles from Richmond to class in Lawrence.

McGeorge said the family had no life insurance, so Schendel must pay for four funerals. She suffered some burns, but her 9year-old has more severe burns.

McGeorge said Schendel probably wouldn’t be able to practice for a while because of her injuries.

Sarah Prentice, 30, said classmates had met some of Schendel’s children and always saw her working extra hard to finish her classes.

“She’s just kind of part of our family,” Prentice said. “This is a huge tragedy, so we want to help out as much as we can.”

TOPEKA — A new study that says Kansas has a high tax burden on new business investment is being cited by House leaders as a reason to cut state income taxes.

But a Kansas public policy group said Tuesday that the study shows the need for more analysis of the state’s tax structure.

The sides are facing off over tax policy as legislators return today to put together a state budget for the fiscal year that O’Neal starts July 1 and how to pay for it.

The study showed that Kansas ranked 48th among states in competitive tax burden on new investments. The report was released recently by the Council on State Taxation and conducted by the accounting firm of Ernst & Young.

In an interview with The Associated Press, House Speaker Mike O’Neal, RHutchinson, said of Kansas’ ranking, “It really points to the fact that Kansas needs to get more competitive.”

O’Neal is pushing legislation that would cut individual and corporate income taxes as tax revenues to the state grow.

Under the bill, the top corporate tax rate could drop

According to Eudora police Sgt. Tom Willis, officers discovered stolen property in his vehicle — about $1,600 worth of items reported stolen from the Lawrence Antique Mall, 830 Mass.

from 7 percent to 3.5 percent, and the individual income tax could be phased out completely.

But the Kansas Economic Progress Council said the tax burden study also recommends legislators examine the entire tax system instead of focusing on eliminating a single tax.

“Although Kansas did not rank well in this study, most states without an income tax did not rank high,” said Bernie Koch, executive director of the KEPC. “A few are in the top 10, but many of the states without an individual income tax are ranked in the middle or the bottom of this study,” Koch said.

In fact, the top two states, Maine and Oregon, levy individual income taxes with top rates of 8.5 percent and 11 percent — higher than Kansas’ top rate of 6.45 percent.

Koch said KEPC supports strategically lowering taxes that affect business but only after careful study of the state’s tax structure.

Senate leaders have expressed concern over the House Republican plan, saying it would prevent the state from keeping up with funding needs for social service programs, education and pensions.

The state is facing a projected revenue shortfall of approximately $500 million in the next fiscal year.

New roof on hold for Kennedy School

By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

Kennedy School will not be getting a new roof this summer, as members of the Lawrence school board say they don’t want to influence upcoming work on a plan to consolidate elementary schools.

Board members on Monday declined to accept a $546,737 bid from American Roofing to replace the entire roof at Kennedy, 1605 Davis Road.

Instead, board members told staffers to keep a close eye on water leaks and make

tables, to make it easier for more students to get in, eat and get out.

Plans also are in the works for a brick-encased scoreboard at the football stadium, where a new, arched ticket booth also would be built in time for the coming football season. A booster group is busy raising money for the work, which will be expected to spread to other athletics venues in the years ahead.

Add to that a new class schedule — with the school’s late-start day shifted from Wednesday to Thursday — and the Lions will be beginning the 2011-12 school year with more than just another 400 or so ninth-graders who otherwise would’ve been in junior high school.

“We’ll be ready,” Principal Matt Brungardt said. “We’re plugging along, working on final building plans, getting the master schedule ready, trying to hire some teachers — to prepare for the arrival of ninth-graders in August and getting everybody ready to go, all 1,600 kids.”

Some of the changes already have been put in motion.

The board approved hiring

consolidate Cordley, Kennedy and New York schools, so that only one or two schools remain within the next two to three years.

“If you maintain the status quo, then that can be interpreted as a neutral position,” said Rich Minder, board president.

Board members did agree to hire American Roofing, for $118,673, to replace the roof over the auditorium at West Junior High School, which on July 1 will become West Middle School.

spot repairs as quickly as possible. Such leaks are inevitable, as teachers have been known to place 55-gallon trash cans in their rooms to serve as catch basins.

“We can deal with these things in the short term, as long as it is short term,” said Frank Harwood, the district’s chief operations officer.

Board members said they didn’t want a roof investment to influence the upcoming work of the district’s yet-tobe-appointed Central and East Lawrence Elementary School Working Group.

Among the group’s tasks will be recommending how to

NEW CENTRAL NAME CHOSEN Central Junior High School will get a new, yet historic, name come July 1.

The school at 1400 Mass. will be known as Liberty Memorial Central Middle School, both reflecting the switch to handle grades 6 through 8 next year and to honor the building’s original name granted when it was dedicated as Liberty Memorial High School in 1923.

Lawrence school board members approved the change Monday on a 5-1 vote, with Mark Bradford opposed and Mary Loveland abstaining.

Earlier this month, board members agreed that the Lawrence school district’s other three junior highs — South, Southwest and West — would retain their directional names as middle schools, also effective July 1.

Wichita-based Gerken Environmental, for $72,500, to remove the asbestos coating on the ceiling of the school’s annex building, once home to district headquarters. Floor tiles also include asbestos, and must be removed before renovations can begin.

The board also approved a $86,696 contract with Diamond Everley, of Lawrence, to replace the roof over the original science addition, which is at the southern end of the school.

Alexander Open Systems will be paid $79,410 for 84 new security cameras and mounting equipment, under a contract approved Monday by board members.

Board members also approved the new schedule, which will be the same startand-stop times at Free State High School:

● Monday, Tuesday and Friday: 8:05 a.m. to 3:05 p.m. ● Wednesday: 8:05 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. ● Thursday: 9:05 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Getting out early on Thursdays, new this coming year, will mean fewer early dismissals for students participating in athletics events, Brungardt said. That’s because more competitions — especially for JV football and volleyball — are scheduled for Thursday afternoons.

The schedule change largely was dictated by bus schedules, but administrators will accept any extra benefit where they can get one.

“We’re going to take credit for it,” he said, with a laugh.

Democrats Discussion touts benefits of bill push for encouraging engineering training tax change, Peck resolution

Legislative session reopens today

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — As the legislative session reconvenes, Democratic leaders said Tuesday that they would push for a resolution condemning a Republican legislator for remarks he made about undocumented immigrants. And they support a tax change to pump more revenue into state coffers.

But facing huge Republican majorities, Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka and House Minority Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence didn’t predict the chances that their proposals would have during the session that reopens today.

Davis said the remarks of Rep. Virgil Peck, R-Tyro, are worthy of a vote of condemnation in the House.

“He has brought LEGISLATURE shame on the institution” of the Legislature, Davis said.

During a House committee meeting in March, Peck compared illegal immigrants to feral hogs and said perhaps the state should shoot them from helicopters. He later said he was joking and issued a two-sentence apology in a news release.

On the tax front, with legislators poised to make deep cuts in education and social services, Hensley said he would propose “de-coupling” the state tax system from federal tax cuts made in December.

Earlier this month, state revenue forecasters said the state would lose $53 million in the next fiscal year in likely tax revenue because of federal tax code changes.

The new federal tax provisions were made on business expensing, bonus depreciation, removal of limitations on itemized deductions for highincome taxpayers, and other tax credits.

“Our budget would be in the black but for the fact the feds made these tax changes,” Hensley said.

Democrats have proposed breaking off the state tax code from federal tax cuts in the past, but Republicans have rejected the idea.

O V E R L A N D P ARK — Representatives from Kansas universities, the Kansas Legislature and Kansas engineering f irms gathered Tuesday morning to tout the benefits of a bill that would provide funding to allow universities to train more engineers.

The plan calls for spending $4 million in the fiscal year that starts July 1, 2012, and $7 million for each year after, using funds from gaming revenues. Universities would provide matching funds.

Some highlights of the forum: ● More engineering construction on campus: At Kansas University, state funds would be used to construct a new addition to the ongoing construction near Learned Hall, said Stuart Bell, dean of KU’s engineering school.

The existing building project, funded by a grant from

the National Institute for Standards and Technology and private donations, will house several research projects, but won’t have dedicated classroom space, Bell said.

The new funding would be applied to a second phase that would construct a 101,000-square-foot building for additional classroom and lab space. ● Sparking more money: Bell said he was planning for even more revenue from tuition from new students and increased donations.

Tuition dollars would likely be spent on new faculty and staff, and donations would be used for new scholarships and professorships, Bell said.

“We see the state’s part of this as the first leveraging piece,” he said. ● Increasing numbers: Kansas Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, said he would like to see the bill result in a 60 percent increase in the number of

engineers trained in Kansas.

That would mean a move from about 900 graduates to 1,500 statewide, he said. ● No distribution decisions: Bell said that he didn’t yet know just how much money KU would be getting from the proposal and that distribution mechanisms would be worked out later. It possibly could be done through the Kansas Board of Regents, he said. ● Working together: Andy Tompkins, Regents president and CEO, praised the three engineering schools in the state — at KU, Kansas State and Wichita State — for working together.

“They’re going to always be competitive,” Tompkins said, but they were able to work with legislators to accomplish more together than they would have separately.

Report: Air is safe at Kennedy School The air inside Kennedy School is safe for workers, students and anyone else entering the elementary building across the street from the Douglas County 4-H Fairgrounds, according to a report by the Kansas Department of Labor.

Since last year, members of the Lawrence Elementary School Facility Vision Task Force had raised concerns about the school’s SCHOOLS air quality, prompting the district to order private testing and analysis.

“This review did not find any conclusive or evidential support that the work environs are detrimental or harmful to workers employed there,” said Clifford Morris, the department’s acting director for industrial safety and health.

Site examination did reveal that some air-return ducts had been blocked by furniture and some other minor problems, but “no major areas of concern,” said Rick Doll, district superintendent.

Libyan government troops target port

By Ben Hubbard Associated Press Writer

A B O A R D T H E R ED S T A R 1 — Libyan government forces on Tuesday bombarded the port of Misrata, in a virtually nonstop assault on the sole lifeline of a battered population that has been under siege for the past two months.

While forces loyal to Moammar Gadhafi pulled out of the city over the weekend under pressure from NATO airstrikes, they have since unleashed a withering rocket and mortar barrage on Misrata that has killed dozens. The bombardment Tuesday was constant throughout the afternoon and into the evening, and loud explosions could be heard thundering across the city.

“It was horrific, like a scene from World War II,” said resident Saddoun el-Misurati who was waiting to evacuate his mother from the port when the rockets began to

Gates hints at bombing risk to Gadhafi WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. took its first steps Tuesday short of military assistance to aid Libyan rebels, even as Defense Secretary Robert Gates said that Libyan military command centers “wherever we find them” are legitimate targets for U.S. and NATO air attack, suggesting that strongman Moammar Gadhafi himself is increasingly in danger.

The Obama administration eased its sanctions on Libya, a move that will allow the oppofall. “I stopped counting after nine.”

Hundreds of residents, including migrant African laborers, had been waiting at the port for the expected afternoon arrival of the Red Star 1, an Albanian ship chartered by the International Organization of Migration to evacuate people from the besieged city.

sition forces to sell the oil it controls and use the income to buy weapons and other supplies. The White House also ordered the expenditure of up to $25 million in surplus, nonlethal goods and commodities to support and protect the rebels.

At a joint news conference with British Defense Minister Liam Fox, Gates said that NATO planes are not targeting Gadhafi specifically but will continue to take aim at his command centers.

The crowd gathered on the docks scrambled for cover when the rockets began falling, hiding in cars and shipping crates or just fleeing the port area, said el-Misurati.

Even after sundown, Gadhafi’s forces continued to shell the port.

Survey: Economy will be OK if oil prices tamed

By Jeannine Aversa Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — The American economy is now strong enough to withstand Middle East turmoil and the Japanese nuclear crisis. Only a big rise in the price of oil could stop it now.

Those are the findings of an Associated Press survey of leading economists, who are increasingly confident in a recovery that is nearly two years old. They expect the economy to grow faster every quarter this year.

In part, that’s because the economists think Americans will spend more freely in the coming months. Higher stock prices have made people wealthier. And a cut in the Social Security payroll tax is giving most households an extra $1,000 to $2,000 this year.

American exports and corporate spending, which have helped drive the recovery, are also expected to remain strong, according to the quarterly AP Economy Survey.

The one factor that could make a second recession a possibility would be a jump in oil prices to $150 a barrel, economists say. Oil trades at about $112 a barrel now. The record high, set in the summer of 2008, is about $147 a barrel.

“The economy is regaining some of its lost muscle and now seems to have a much thicker skin than it did six months or a year ago, and that’s helping it handle various negative forces,” said

Lynn Reaser, a board member of the National Association for Business Economics.

While oil has risen almost $40 a barrel since Labor Day, analysts think it would take something extraordinary to drive the price all the way to a new record — either supply disruptions because of a new front in the Mideast unrest or action by the Federal Reserve that brings down the value of the dollar.

Economists think gas prices, now averaging $3.87 a gallon and rising every day, will stabilize by summer and drop to about $3.50 by fall.

Rising gas prices are taking up much of what Americans are pocketing from the Social Security tax cut.

Still, Americans are spending more on furniture, cars and electronics. Apple Inc.’s earnings, for example, nearly doubled in its most recent quarter, helped by record sales of iPhones and the popular iPad. And businesses are buying more computers and other equipment. Last week, Intel Corp., the world’s biggest semiconductor company, said its quarterly profit rose 29 percent. Corporate demand for PCs and the backroom hardware that powers computer data centers fueled orders for Intel chips. And Honeywell said its quarterly profit jumped 40 percent because of more demand for its industrial products.

The AP survey collected the views of 42 private, corporate and academic economists on a range of indicators.

said he was trying to leave on a small, previously arranged vessel when a barrage of at least 10 Grad rockets slammed into the port around 9 p.m., forcing him to hide under a table in offices near the main entrance.

With Gadhaf i’s troops besieging the city on all sides by land, the port has become a key point in the battle for Misrata.

It has served as a lifeline for the city, allowing in desperately needed medical supplies and food and ferrying out residents looking to flee the fierce fighting that has left swaths of the city in ruins.

Tuesday’s assault by proGadhafi forces temporarily suspended the flow of aid and people.

The battle for Misrata, which has claimed hundreds of lives in the past two months, has become the focal point of the armed rebellion against Gadhafi since fighting on the eastern front near the city of Ajdabiya is deadlocked.

Plugs pulled on alien search devices SAN FRANCISCO — In the mountains of Northern California, a field of radio dishes that look like giant dinner plates waited for years for the first call from intelligent life among the stars.

But they’re not listening anymore.

Cash-strapped governments, it seems, can no longer pay the interstellar phone bill.

Astronomers at the SETI Institute said a steep drop in state and federal funds has forced the shutdown of the Allen Telescope Array, a powerful tool in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, an effort scientists refer to as SETI. The shutdown came just as researchers were preparing to point the radio dishes at a batch of new planets.

Rushed action Rushing to appoint a new elementary school working group is a disservice to incoming school board members.

L

awrence school board business shouldn’t grind to a halt between the time new members are elected in April and when they take office on July 1. However, especially when a majority of the board seats are due to turn over, board members need to show some judgment on committing incoming members to a certain course of action.

The board’s decision Monday night to push forward on a process for realigning several district elementary schools calls that judgment into question. Although one newly elected board member has openly criticized the process and makeup of an elementary school working group, the board nonetheless voted to move ahead and have the group appointed and working by the time new board members take their seats.

Whether or not other new board members are concerned about the process, they represent a majority of the board that will work with the elementary school group and act on its recommendations. They deserve to have a say in how the group is formed and how it approaches the possibility of consolidating six centralcity elementary schools into three or four.

The district needs to move forward on this issue, but it’s only reasonable to wait until the new board is seated. The goal is to consolidate the elementary schools within two or three years, so waiting two months to start the process isn’t critical. It would be far better to have the input of new board members before an elementary school group is selected and working rather than risk an abrupt change in direction after the new board is seated.

It’s not like the current board doesn’t have enough to keep it busy as it finalizes budget cuts and oversees the transition of ninthgraders into four-year high schools next year.

It’s reasonable to wonder if current board members are pressing the elementary school issue in an effort to try to make sure the new board continues in the same direction the current board has set. That’s understandable, but it’s not fair to the new board members.

Three current board members chose not to seek re-election and another one failed in her re-election bid. The members elected on April 5 are all new to the board, but they will represent a majority of the board after July 1 and will be the ones responsible for the district’s future.

The realignment of district elementary schools is an important issue that will have a significant effect on the city’s future. Rushing the process through before July 1 is insulting to the new board members and a disservice to the district.

Waiting won’t ease budget-cutting pain WASHINGTON — It’s a truth of economics and life that if you have bad news coming, take the hit early and get it behind you.

You can’t start building until the debris is out of the way.

Modern illustrations of this “pain, then gain” approach start with Paul Volcker, Mr. Tough Guy, who as Fed chairman sharply raised interest rates in 1979 to break the inflationary psychology that had a grip on the United States. Volcker’s decisive move brought on a recession, but he built the foundations for prosperity that lasted 25 years.

Ben Bernanke earned a place on the list when he let Lehman Brothers fail in 2008 — allowing the bubble economy to burst — and then created an innovative new set of monetary facilities to provide liquidity to the markets.

The recovery of the U.S. financial system from that near-death experience has been remarkable, at least for banks, even though it hasn’t yet delivered on growth and employment.

Among contemporary politicians, British Prime Minister David Cameron deserves credit for “taking the hit” early with an austerity budget that helped Britain escape its own financial crisis. When he took office, Britain’s debt problem, as a percentage of its GDP, was comparable to Ireland’s or Portugal’s.

Cameron bit the bullet and slashed ministerial budgets an

average of 19 percent. Bond traders took Britain off their target list, and a slow recovery began.

For a counterexample of the costs of taking nasty medicine in small doses, look elsewhere in Europe — especially at its most flagrant debtor, Greece. For a year now, Greece and its eurozone partners have been dancing around the fact that the country must restructure its debts or default. All the interim facilities and special funds and gimcracks haven’t changed that reality. According to the Financial Times, the markets last week were pricing the probability of a Greek default over the next five years at 67 percent, compared to 55 percent a month ago.

But Greek restructuring means pain for private banks that

still hold Greek debt and for the European Central Bank. So it’s delayed and delayed, even though most analysts assume “a haircut” is inevitable.

The result of this waiting game is a death of a thousand cuts.

Investors keep betting that the soothing talk is nonsense.

Spreads widen, the crisis grows and measures that might have been sufficient six months before become inadequate. It’s a rolling cascade of concessions, never sufficient to stop the contagion.

To state the obvious: Attempts to avoid the pain of restructuring just make it worse in the end.

That’s why many analysts now question the survival of the eurozone itself. Without the central pain dispenser, in the form of a binding common fiscal policy, a common currency may be impossible.

What’s the lesson for the United States as President Obama and the Republicans maneuver for position on the budget fight — with the clock ticking toward an early July deadline for raising the debt ceiling? You wouldn’t know the answer by watching Obama bantering last week with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, as if this were just a problem of assembling enough “friends.” No, it’s about pain — and how to share it in a way that’s fair and also acceptable to retropopulist Republicans.

The longer Obama waits to

hammer out his budget deal, the greater the collateral damage is going to be. David Smick, a leading financial analyst, says that some foreign central bank regulators are warning about the risks of U.S. Treasury securities. Last week’s warning by Standard & Poor’s that it might cut America’s AAA bond rating will increase such concerns. Wall Street was also buffeted by rumors that a slowing China may reduce its purchases of Treasuries.

The market jitters are the first cuts of the knife, but many more will come until Obama and the Republicans reach an agreement.

In a global economy, traders who sense weakness will keep selling until they see decisive action.

“Cut your deal, get it done,” advises Smick. “Present a downward-sloping trend line that gets to a compromise endgame,” with a mix of spending cuts and revenue increases. Obama’s task is a bit like shaping an Israeli-Palestinian peace settlement: Everyone knows what the basic elements will be; the challenge is transforming these unspoken requirements into a formal deal.

What’s crazy in this budget season is the hope that you can buy some relief with just a little harsh medicine. To quote Shakespeare’s “Macbeth”: “If it were done ... then ’twere well it were done quickly.”

Offensive speech still protected The RINO (reverend in name only) Terry Jones is like his fellow RINO, Fred Phelps, but in political drag.

Jones, the “pastor” (PINO?) of the tiny and inconsequential Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville, Fla., was jailed last week in Dearborn, Mich., “following a jury trial that found he was likely to create a ‘breach of the peace’ for plans to protest outside the Islamic Center of America in Dearborn,” according to the Detroit News. Jones and his associate Wayne Sapp were taken into custody after they refused to post a $1 “peace bond.” A judge then barred Jones and Sapp from entering the property of the Islamic Center — the largest mosque in the U.S. — for three years. The two posted bond and were released, but they promised to return on Friday.

Last month, Jones burned a Koran, which led to demonstrations and deaths in the Middle East.

Let’s get the obligatory and obvious out of the way before moving to the central issue in this case. Jones is a publicity hound and an offense to the One he claims to follow.

Having said that, what about Jones’ First Amendment rights?

In 1977, the Illinois Supreme Court, after instruction from the U.S. Supreme Court, allowed the National Socialist Party of America to march through Skokie, Ill., home of many Holocaust survivors. The Illinois Supreme Court even ruled that the hated swastika was a form of free speech and thus entitled to First Amendment protection. So, though neo-Nazis marching through a predominantly Jewish town wearing swastikas might be considered offensive, the court ruled, it was not illegal.

In the case of Fred Phelps and

This is America, and “public sidewalks should

be for the use of the public to practice even offensive speech and peaceful assembly. That some ‘fear’ violence is no excuse for prior restraint of speech and assembly.” his family, all members of the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan., who carry outrageous “Thank God for dead soldiers” signs and claim America is being punished because of its growing tolerance for homosexuals, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the 8-1 majority: “Speech is powerful.

It can stir people to action, move them to tears of both joy and sorrow, and — as it did here — inflict great pain. On the facts before us, we cannot react to that pain by punishing the speaker.”

Speech with which one agrees is easy to defend. Most would defend political speech with which they disagree, although a minority would censor it. The strength and uniqueness of the First Amendment is that it defends even hate speech. The response to speech we don’t like is not less speech, but more. In Skokie, some Holocaust survivors created a museum to commemorate those who were murdered by

the Nazis. That’s the correct reaction. Overcome darkness with light. Overcome speech you don’t like with speech you do like.

In the Jones case, what are the Dearborn authorities thinking?

Isn’t Islam a “religion of peace”?

President Obama — and George W. Bush before him — has said it is. If lawful speech and assembly brings an unlawful act of violence, shouldn’t the lawbreakers be the ones punished?

This is America, and public sidewalks should be for the use of the public to practice even offensive speech and peaceful assembly. That some “fear” violence is no excuse for prior restraint of speech and assembly. From whom is the violence feared?

What the Muslims in Dearborn and elsewhere in the country should be told is that in America, we do things differently than in countries where Muslims have political control. If you want to be tolerated, you have to tolerate others, including those whose beliefs you don’t like. We don’t conform to your religious laws; you conform to our secular laws.

We are about freedom.

If you have an agenda, don’t bring it here. In fact, if our ways are so offensive to you, why are you here? Why come to a land regarded by some Islamic leaders, and many followers, as “the Great Satan”? Why not stay in your home country, or, if you were born in America and embrace Islam, why not live in countries where Islam is the dominant religion? Or do you wish to dominate and subjugate the rest of us to your Sharia law?

If that is your goal, we will oppose you and even demonstrate against it. Except, apparently, in Dearborn, Mich.

To the editor: I had to laugh when I read that our most recent school task force decided that “detached mobile buildings (were) substandard for instruction.” Oh, goodness! Here I thought that I did a pretty good job of teaching American history in a portable at West Junior High.

It seemed that the curtains and the posters I paid for made a rather inviting atmosphere. We had temperature control that surpassed anything inside the building in those days before classroom air-conditioning. The students were not disrupted by banging lockers or hall traffic, and we seemed to concentrate on and vigorously discuss the lessons of each day. I sure thought we all felt lucky to be there.

Oh well, I apologize to Mrs. Loveland and all those parents who sent me their cherubs to teach. I did not realize that we were so handicapped by our environment.

Troubling data To the editor: The Journal-World recently published some disturbing data on the average growth of salaries in Lawrence and its surrounds as compared to the state and sister college communities. While there was growth over a five-year period, Lawrence lagged behind the statewide average and did not stack up well against similar college atmospheres. It is significant that Manhattan could nearly double the salary growth that Lawrence had in the same time frame.

The facts show that the community is not attracting the businesses that other communities around us are and can be seen as a barometer of how our community is viewed elsewhere. For those who see Lawrence as a premier city in the state and region, the salary data presented should be an alarm signal, prompting a detailed inspection of what may be the root causes of this disparity.

Current and recent city and county administrations, along with various special interest groups have made decisions that greatly affect the job and income growth of this community. Some will blame student wages, others will say that it is a lack of vision for the community. Still others will feel that Lawrence has been following the wrong vision. With only 13.5 percent of the registered voters caring who makes decisions for the community, it would seem that few in Lawrence really care if it loses its place as one of the more influential communities in Kansas.

Don’t be surprised if you see the center of attention in Kansas moving westward.

Legislative employee retires at age 102 LINCOLN, NEB. — Nebraska centenarian Sally Gordon has reached her final day in the Legislature, the latest turn in a life story that dates to the Taft administration.

The 102-year-old assistant sergeant-at-arms retired Tuesday with hugs, flowers and praise from well-wishers at the Capitol.

Gordon was 75 years old when she started working for the Legislature in 1984. Every day when weather allowed, she walked seven blocks to the Capitol from her Lincoln home.

Gordon also has worked for three governors, hobnobbed with Shirley MacLaine and Gene Kelly, and once chatted with President Lyndon B. Johnson on the steps of Air Force One. Gordon estimated she held between 15 and 20 jobs in her 84-year working career. The list includes stints as a court reporter, an employee at an engraving company and a secretary to three Nebraska governors.

At the Nebraska State Capitol, she shuttled notes to lawmakers and helped prepare for legislative floor debate each morning.

Hawthorne Heights Hawthorne Heights swing by the Bottleneck, 737 N.H., as part of their United Scenes of America tour. The Dayton, Ohio, band made waves during the middle portion of the last decade as one of the many bands to ride the emo wave — emo, of course, being shorthand for sadly written songs that sound happy when only half listened to.

All kidding aside, the band still has a feverishly devoted fanbase, as their angst-ridden, all-or-nothing approach to romance and relationships certainly connected with plenty of people. Just parse through the band’s Facebook page for proof of this.

Their newest album, “Skeletons” is out now via Wind-up Records.

Hawthorne Heights is joined by After Midnight Project, Handguns, Maps for Travelers and The Strive.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Football breakout hopefuls

Wide open race Richard Gwin/ Journal-World Photo

The white tents already dot the hill. You can almost smell the fried doughnuts, the sausages, the honey pork tenderloin kabobs. Footballs will fly through the air Saturday outside Memorial Stadium, where for a one-day tease, it will be football season.

Kansas football fans, young, old and in between, know how to tailgate, regardless of the prospects of their favorite college football team. No shortage of big-name former Jayhawks, from John Hadl to Darrell Stuckey and Kerry Meier, are expected to be milling about as part of their annual football reunion weekend that coincides with the spring football game.

Second-year Kansas football coach Turner Gill said after Monday’s practice he expected to determine by today the format for the spring football game. He said he wasn’t sure whether the team would have enough healthy defensive tackles to play a conventional blueagainst-white scrimmage. That’s the problem with intrasquad games: It takes a shortage at just one position to foil plans.

Gill can only do what he can do, based on the available healthy bodies, but here’s hoping he has enough to play a game, and if so, that game pits the first team against the second team, rather than giving one team the first-string offense, the other the first-team defense.

The better the first-stringers look, the bigger their names will become to a fan base that hasn’t had a chance to connect to many of them yet in part because 3-9 seasons that start with a loss to an FCS team, North Dakota State.

FREE STATE JUNIOR MADELINE DIEKER (11) TRIES WORKING AROUND Shawnee Mission North’s Ilena Navarro. The Firebirds blasted the Indians, 8-0, on Tuesday at FSHS.

Free State soccer destroys SM North

By Ben Ward Journal-World Sports Writer

The best kind of confusion broke out after Free State High’s soccer game on Tuesday night.

As the Firebirds packed up their gear and began to make their way off the field, a voice rang out: “Raise your hand if you scored a goal.”

Plenty of hands shot into the air, and plenty of smiles followed after the Firebirds dismantled Shawnee Mission North, 8-0, on Tuesday night at FSHS. “I think we just came out with the mind-set that we were going to score,” said senior Hillary Yoder, who scored twice and tallied an assist. “Yesterday, we had so many missed opportunities, I think we just got them out of our system.”

It wasn’t merely a matter of shots finding the back of the net, either.

FSHS (8-3) controlled the game from start to finish, rarely letting SM North move past midfield, if at all.

The Firebirds, who have won three straight, were simply too strong on the attack; they possessed the ball with confidence, set up a multitude of chances with crisp passing, and ultimately made it a long evening for SM North’s defense.

Goalkeepers Elena Auer and Anneliese Ann Hierl combined for the shutout — though neither was tested with a serious scoring opportunity.

“The good thing is seeing us play well and finish on top of that,” coach Kelly Barah said.

“That’s the most exciting thing.”

Kathryn Sarraf, Kylee Loneker, Maddie Dieker, Chelsea Casady, Alexa Harmon-Thomas and Regan Keasling each scored for the Firebirds, who cruised into the half with a 6-0 lead.

That didn’t stop the Firebirds from staying aggressive after the intermission.

Aside from two second-half goals, there could have been plenty more if not for a few nice saves and a few narrow misses.

“Our second half was just as good as our first half … we just want to get better,” Yoder said.

“We don’t want to take a step backwards.”

FSHS will play at Olathe South at 7 p.m. on Thursday. Barah called it another good opportunity to see where the Firebirds stack up against one of the best teams in the Sunflower League.

Pair of KU targets to display talents in Lawrence tucky, Texas, UCLA, UNLV, Arizona, USC and many others.

NFL, players struggle through lockout limbo The Associated Press

Lockout has turned into limbo for NFL players and owners, and everyone is stuck there for the time being.

“It drives me insane, that’s what it does,” said Chicago rookie J’Marcus Webb, who was told he and a handful of other Bears couldn’t use the team’s weight room Tuesday.

“I’m trying to eat healthy and work out, do my job and right now I’m just stuck at home working out and watching cartoons all day.

“What’s up with that? Let me get back to what I do best.”

That could take a while. The 2011 season, and the business between 32 teams and their thousands of anxious players, is in a holding pattern. With more court

fights and appeals expected, the NFL said it needed “a few days to sort this out” and provide some rules for everyone to follow.

“We are in the process of determining throughout the league as to just how we’ll proceed and when we’ll open the new year across the league, the new football year,” Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said. “We have not done that.”

By Jim Souhan Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

Tuesday, after hearing that the league’s lockout had been lifted by a federal court in Minneapolis, some NFL players showed up for work.

They were politely turned away.

Imagine the inevitable escalation. Next time the players show up, they will be targeted by poison-tipped arrows and Kenny G CDs. The time after that, they will be scalded by vats of boiling oil and invited to listen to Zygi Wilf recite the Gettysburg Address.

Where will man’s inhumanity to man end?

Actually, in the court of public opinion, this battle should already be over. The NFL players — a loose-knit and sometimes dysfunctional group of young men with shortterm careers, frequent head trauma and a history of losing that would make the Timberwolves blush — have whipped the owners the way viral infections whip Joe Mauer.

We all know that the players who reported to work on Tuesday did so for strategic and symbolic reasons. If NFL teams allowed them to meet with coaches or work out, that would provide evidence that the lockout had ended. If NFL teams turned away players, then the owners would look even more petty and imbecilic than usual.

Because we knew this, it is logical to assume that owners knew this. And yet they allowed themselves to be hustled, proving that billionaire owners of sports teams are rarely as savvy as their portfolios would lead you to believe.

Taking the players’ side in this dispute is rough. It puts me on the same side as Drew Rosenhaus’ smirk, Brandon Marshall’s rap sheet, Jay Cutler’s sneer and DeMaurice Smith’s hat, which I hope came with a really good bowl of soup.

There’s not much of a choice, though.

You can either side with the players, who are willing to work, and work under the terms of a collective bargaining agreement that made the owners lots of money, or you can side with the owners, who have shut down a game at the height of its popularity so they can afford plutonium countertops on their ninth yachts.

Smith, the executive director of the NFL Players Association, shouldn’t be trusted.

He is using this high-profile and highly litigious conflict to raise his personal stock and profile. You don’t have to trust him, though, to agree with him. On ESPN’s “Mike & Mike in the Morning” radio show, Smith said: “To be in state where the National Football League is allowing this kind of chaos to occur, I’m not sure it’s a great day for football. ... And we’re in a world where the owners of the National Football League opted out of a contract that was fine. They went to the Supreme Court to try to stick it to the players and they lost.

They tried to keep revenue sharing from happening in 2010 and they lost. A judge ruled that they gamed the TV contracts to lock the players out and they lost. And then they lock the players out and took football from our fans, and yesterday they lost.”

Every word of that is true.

The problem with sports owners is they are forced to transition from shadowy worlds where their ruthlessness and back-room calculations gain them competitive advantages, to a world of bright lights and iridescent scoreboards where they are forced to compete with men of similar wealth and cunning.

To get ahead in this public world, they can’t undercut their fellow owners. They eagerly settled for undercutting their own players.

At least the draft will be held this week, even if free agency and personnel swaps are up in the air.

FSHS softball drops twinbill

By Ben Ward Journal-World Sports Writer

For Free State High softball coach Lee Ice, Tuesday’s doubleheader against Olathe North was the same story, just on a different night.

After a five-run second inning brought them even, the Firebirds fell, 14-7, in the nightcap of a doubleheader on Tuesday night at FSHS. FSHS (4-8) fell, 7-2, in the first game.

“We’re basically in catch up mode all the time,” Ice said.

“We got that game tied and we can’t shut it down.”

After only managing three hits in the first game, the Firebirds smacked nine in the nightcap — six of them coming in a f ive-run second inning that tied the game at 66.

With two outs and two on in the inning, A’Liyah Rogers smacked an RBI single to center to score Elizabeth Hazlett.

runs scored and a home run in the two games — the Firebirds couldn’t stay close.

“I can’t fault our pitching.

(They’re) going to throw to contact, the other team is going to hit the ball, and we’ve got to make the plays,” Ice said. “Typically when we give teams more than three outs in an inning, they score three or four runs.”

Parker also doubled in the final Firebird run in the second game, and second baseman Katy Davis stood out defensively.

Hill, Hazlett and Samuels tallied Free State’s hits in game one.

The Firebirds will play host to Shawnee Mission West in a doubleheader at 4:15 p.m.

Lawrence soccer suffers 9-0 setback

By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

Lawrence High soccer coach Joe Nemzer has never questioned his team’s talent and potential.

But after a 9-0 loss to Olathe East at home on Tuesday, Nemzer began to question just about everything else.

“I think the score says it all,” Nemzer said.

The Hawks poured in goals early, taking a 5-0 lead after the first 20 minutes.

Wideouts CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

game set for 1 p.m. Saturday, Omigie and Matthews are two of the many candidates vying to become the man.

“The group as a whole is probably a deeper group than I had here before,” said wide receivers coach David Beaty, who coached at Rice last season after two years at KU. “Deeper, talent-wise, in terms of the types of guys that we have. We still need to perfect our craft to try to get back up to those guys that have been All-Big 12 type players here before, and those kids understand that. They know they’ve got a lot to live up to, and they’re working towards it.”

Outside of senior Daymond Patterson, who led KU’s wideouts in receptions (60), yards (487) and touchdowns (two) in 2010, the Jayhawks don’t have a single receiver who hauled in more than 10 catches last season.

Junior slot receiver D.J. Beshears leads the list with 10 catches for 69 yards and a touchdown. Omigie is next with seven grabs, Erick McGriff follows with six catches for 61 yards and Pick (three for 18) and Matthews (one grab) round out the list of returning receivers who played last season. Although those numbers aren’t the kind that garner much attention, Beaty says this group has talent.

Though Beshears did little in the passing game in 2010, he was one of the Jayhawks’ most electric playmakers. He broke a school record with 922 kickoff return yards on 36 returns and also added 213 yards and two TDs rushing. Those numbers alone indicate that Beshears could provide a spark if the Jayhawks can get him the ball. That hasn’t been

LHS sophomore Elizabeth Burney, who impressed Nemzer with her effort on Tuesday, said she thought the large deficit could be a learning experience for the Lions.

“There are mistakes that you can make that you know they’re mistakes, and there are things that we kind of need to work on as a team,” Burney said.

She also said the loss could motivate the team during this next week of practices.

a problem this spring.

Beshears has benefited from extra reps in the slot with Patterson sidelined because of injury.

Of course, it was not just Beshears who received extra reps this spring. KU coach Turner Gill did all he could to make sure all of his receivers — including 2010 red-shirts Ricki Herod, Brian Maura, Andrew Turzilli and walk-on Connor Embree — got a fair chance to flash their skills.

“There are a lot of guys getting a lot of reps and opportunities to see if they can produce,” Gill said. “That is what we are all about.”

For the receivers themselves, the crowded quarters is nothing new.

“There’s always competition at the wide receiver spot because there are so many of us,” Omigie said. “Everybody wants to be the go-to guy so we’re always out here working hard, competing against each other and doing our best.

We’re all out here going hard against the defense to show coach that we can be the guy.

So the competition is really intense right now.”

With just two practices remaining before Saturday, Matthews said he had identified an easy way to get noticed.

“If you don’t block, then you will not play,” Matthews said. “That is the biggest thing with coach Beaty.”

Another way, according to Omigie, was to make key catches when called upon, something the unit struggled with in 2010.

“We talk about that a lot,” Omigie said. “Our thing this year is that we are trying to show the coaches that we have that ability to make big plays whenever they give us the chance. All we have to do is prove it to them in the upcoming spring game and keep doing our thing in practice. Hopefully they will get the message.”

“We know what we need to do to turn it around,” Burney said. “It’s just execution.”

Lately, the Lions (2-8) have been playing with a defensive mentality in the early part of the first half in an effort to stymie and wear down the opponent’s attack.

That’s a sharp contrast from Nemzer’s attack-oriented goals early in the year, when the Lions picked up their two victories.

“I think now we’re at the point where we have to go

back to what’s been our success and live or die by it,” Nemzer said. “If it happens, cool. And if not, at least we go out with our boots on.”

With the Lions not playing until Monday against Shawnee Mission East, Nemzer and his coaching staff will have significant practice time to work out some of the kinks and improve on the basics.

“There’s no place to go but up,” Nemzer said.

The SYF Players will also play at 12:40 p.m., and 4:10 p.m., Saturday both at LHS main gym.

Rays-Twins, postponed, rain M I N N E A P O L I S — Minnesota went through a seemingly charmed first season in outdoor Target Field last year, with the kind of weather luck that is Home Away unheard of in these parts.

The Twins postponed their 6-4 10-3 game with Tampa Bay on 4-5 7-6 Tuesday due to heavy rain in 7-5 5-8 the Twin Cities. It’s their sec6-5 4-7 ond postponement in the first 4-10 5-5 month of the season after having just one all of last year.

Mariners 7, Tigers 3 DETROIT — Miguel Olivo hit a bizarre home run and Felix Hernandez extended his dominance of Detroit in Seattle’s victory.

Hernandez (3-2) beat the Tigers for the seventh straight time, allowing three runs — two earned — on four hits in six innings.

White Sox 3, Yankees 2 NEW YORK — Late substitute Brent Lillibridge made two spectacular catches in a row to save the White Sox in the ninth inning, and Gavin Floyd pitched Chicago to a victory over a suddenly slumping New York team.

Lillibridge entered as a pinch-runner in the eighth and scored on Paul Konerko’s go-ahead homer off struggling setup man Rafael Soriano (1-1).

Robinson Cano then hit a line drive to right and Lillibridge charged in, making an all-out dive to snag the ball for the final out.

CHICAGO BULLS’ JOAKIM NOAH (13) SIGNALS “VICTORY” TO HIS TEAMMATES as he walks to the bench during the fourth quarter against the Indiana Pacers in Game 5 of their first-round playoff series. The Bulls won the game, 116-89, and the series on Tuesday in Chicago.

Bulls finish off Pacers The Associated Press

Bulls 116, Pacers 89 C H I C A G O — Derrick Rose scored 25 points, Luol Deng added 24 and the Chicago Bulls finally played like a top seed, knocking off the Indiana Pacers in Game 5 to wrap up their f irst-round playoff series Tuesday night.

The top-seeded Bulls can breathe a little easier after getting a dominant performance by their MVP candidate and an emphatic victory that came on the heels of four dramatic games.

They can also turn their attention to the Eastern Conference semifinals, where they’ll meet Atlanta or Orlando.

Rose seemed just fine after spraining his left ankle in Game 4, hitting eight of 17 shots. He dominated in the early going and came up big in the third after the Pacers pulled within four. He scored 10 points over the final six minutes, and Chicago ended the quarter on a 23-8 run to blow the game open.

Joakim Noah added 14 points and eight rebounds, and the Bulls won a playoff series for the first time since they swept Miami in the first round in 2007 even though Carlos Boozer scored just two.

Danny Granger scored 20 for the Pacers. Tyler Hansbrough added 14 points and 11 rebounds, but the Pacers trailed the entire way and committed 21 turnovers.

Richardson scored 17 points and J.J. Redick added 14 to help the Magic stay alive in the playoffs with a victory over the Hawks.

The win kept alive the Magic’s hopes of becoming the ninth team in NBA history to win a playoff series after trailing, 3-1. If they can win Game 6 Thursday in Atlanta, they would host the decisive Game 7 on Saturday.

Magic center Dwight Howard battled foul trouble throughout the night and had just one field goal, finishing with eight points and eight rebounds. Orlando didn’t need his offense, though, as it broke out of a series-long shooting slump with 11 three-pointers.

Andrew Bynum had 18 points and 10 rebounds, and Pau Gasol added 16 points as the two-time defending NBA champions roared back from a slow start in a pivotal game for their threepeat hopes with another dramatic playoff performance by Bryant, who injured his ankle in Game 4.

Trevor Ariza scored 22 points and Chris Paul had 20 points and 12 assists for the seventh-seeded Hornets, who have lost three of four since their stunning Game 1 victory.

LHS baseball blanks Olathe East J-W Staff Reports

O L A T H E — Garrett Cleavinger pitched a completegame, one-hitter and Lawrence High’s baseball team shut out Olathe East, 40, on Tuesday.

Cleavinger had his no-hit bid broken up in the fifth inning. He walked three and struck out 10.

“He was really special,” LHS coach Brad Stoll said. “He was going right at guys, throwing a

lot of first-pitch strikes. I’m very proud of him.”

So did the no-hitter enter the LHS coach’s mind once Cleavinger started sending Hawks batters to the bench?

“Well, the way baseball is, no one even thinks to bring it up,” Stoll said. “But in the back of your mind, you’re thinking, ‘He could throw a no-hitter.’

Once they got that hit, we started talking about how special it could have been.”

Customer Appreciation

C L E V E L A N D ( A P ) — The Kansas City Royals are starting to slide back to a place they know all too well — the bottom of the AL Central.

Giving up five home runs, the Royals lost their fourth straight and seventh in nine games on Tuesday night, 9-4 to the Cleveland Indians, who won their eighth in a row at home and are showing signs of being more than an early season fluke.

Justin Masterson won his fifth straight start, a stunning personal turnaround from last season, Jack Hannahan homered twice and Shin-Soo Choo hit a three-run shot as the Indians snapped a threegame losing streak and 1 opened a 2 ⁄2-game lead over the Royals.

“It hasn’t affected our confidence,” DH Billy Butler said.

“Look what we did, we had a chance to win the game, even though we were down. We have to battle through it.

That’s all we can do.”

Chimichurri an excellent accompaniment to grilled meats Q: A:

What is Chimichurri?

Chimichurri is an Argentinean sauce that is simply a flatleaf parsley pesto with garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil. It is a thick sauce that is as common in Argentina as ketchup is in the United States. It works well with beef, pork, fish and chicken. Grill the meat to enhance the flavor even more. Here’s a simple recipe using Chimichurri Sauce with beef, provided by the National Cattlemen's Beef Association.

STEAK WRAPS 12 ounces grilled beef steak, cut into slices 3 cups fresh baby spinach 1/2 large red bell pepper, cut into thin strips 4 medium whole wheat tor-

tillas (8 to 10-inch diameter) Chimichurri Sauce: 1 cup fresh parsley leaves 2 cloves garlic 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar 1/4 teaspoon salt Place parsley and garlic in food processor or blender container. Cover and process until finely chopped. Add oil, vinegar and salt. Process just until

blended. Spread each tortilla evenly with Chimichurri Sauce, leaving 1/4-inch border around edge. Top with equal amounts spinach, bell pepper slices and beef slices on top two-thirds of tortilla. Fold bottom of tortilla up over filling. Fold right and left sides to center overlapping edges. Secure with wooden picks, if desired.

Makes 4 servings.

Nutrition information per serving, using top sirloin steak: 340 calories; 16 g fat (3 g saturated fat; 9 g monounsaturated fat); 49 mg cholesterol; 410 mg sodium; 25 g carbohydrate; 3.7 g fiber; 30 g protein.

This recipe is an excellent source of protein, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, iron, selenium and zinc; and a good source of fiber.

Also, here’s some other types of sauces matched with meat that can turn dishes from drab to fab in seconds:

Mojo: Typically served with pork, this Cuban sauce has a citrus and garlic base with cumin, salt and pepper.

Chermoula: Add a Moroccan flair to fish with this sauce made from parsley, cilantro, garlic, paprika, cumin, crushed red pepper, lemon juice and olive oil.

Harissa: Originating in North Africa, this chili sauce has cumin, red chili peppers, garlic, coriander and lemon juice. Serve with lamb, beef, pork, fish and chicken.

Hollandaise: One of the basic “mother” sauces to make a variety of other sauces. It is made with egg yolks, clarified butter, lemon juice, salt and pepper. This is a classic with fish.

Change it into a béarnaise sauce with shallots, chervil, peppercorns and tarragon, and it is the perfect match for beef and chicken. Replace the

tarragon with mint and this French paloise sauce is tasty with lamb.

Exotic sauces are creating new flavors to tempt consumer palates. A maple curry sauce not only works with pork, fish and chicken, it makes a tasty glaze when the meat is roasted with carrots, onion and tomatoes.

Banana ketchup puts a new twist on traditional ketchup.

This combination adds tropical elegance to seafood, shellf ish, smoked pork and smoked chicken.

Q: What are Ramps?

A: Ramps, Allium tricoccum or Allium tricoccum, var. burdickii, also known as wild leeks, are native to the eastern North American mountains. They can be found growing in patches in rich, moist, deciduous forests and bottoms from as far north as Canada, west as Missouri

and Minnesota, and south as North Carolina and Tennessee.

In early spring, ramps send up smooth, broad, lily-ofthe-valley-like leaves that disappear by summer before the white flowers appear.

The bulbs have the pleasant taste of sweet spring onions with a strong garlic-like aroma. The bulbs are best used in the spring, but by summer they tend to be somewhat tough.

Always exercise caution when harvesting and consuming plants from the wild and ensure that you have positively identified any plants that you plan to consume.

ORANGE PISTACHIO AND GOAT CHEESE CRUSTED PORK CHOPS

Chops a satisfying alternative to usual Mother’s Day fare

By Alison Ladman For The Associated Press

This hearty Mother’s Day dinner is as beautiful as it is delicious. Because while moms may like pretty things, it doesn’t mean they don’t also want a dinner that leaves them satisfied. To round out this recipe and make it a meal, a quick salad or some green beans and rice pilaf would be perfect.

ORANGE PISTACHIO AND GOAT CHEESE CRUSTED PORK CHOPS Start to finish: 45 minutes Serves: 4 Zest and juice of 2 oranges 1/2 cup finely chopped pistachios 4 ounce log soft goat

cheese 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper Four 6-ounce bone-in or boneless pork chops 1/2 cup white wine 1 cup chicken broth 1/2 cup orange juice 1 tablespoon cornstarch Salt and ground black pepper, to taste Heat the oven to 375 F. In a small bowl, combine the orange zest and juice, the pistachios, goat cheese, allspice, salt and pepper.

Arrange the pork chops in a small metal roasting pan.

Spread a quarter of the pistachio mixture over the top of each chop. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chops reach 155 F at the thickest part. Transfer the pork chops

to a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm while preparing the sauce.

Place the pan on the stovetop over medium heat. Add the wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. In a small glass, mix the orange juice and the cornstarch, then add to the pan, stirring until thickened.

Strain the sauce through a mesh strainer, if desired.

Adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper. Serve the sauce with the pork chops.

Flowered cake perfect for Mother’s Day

By Alison Ladman For The Associated Press

Instead of giving your mother a bouquet of flowers for Mother’s Day, consider a flowered cake.

This beautiful and easy-to-make cake features the flavors of lemon and honey and is swathed with a cloudlike blanket of honey meringue. It then is crowned with masses of sugared edible flowers.

Be sure to buy flowers that are safe to eat, as many flowers are sprayed with pesticides. Most grocers sell edible flowers with the herbs in the produce section.

LEMON HONEY TRIPLE-LAYER CAKE Start to finish: 1 hour 20 minutes (40 minutes active), plus cooling Servings: 12 For the cake: 2 cups sugar 1 cup honey 6 eggs Zest of 1 lemon 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) butter, melted and cooled 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, sifted 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1 1/2 cups ginger ale For the filling: 1 cup water 1 bag Earl Grey tea 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/4 cup honey 2 tablespoons cornstarch 3 eggs yolks (reserve the whites for the frosting) 2 tablespoons butter For the honey meringue frosting: 1/2 cup honey 4 egg whites 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar For the sugared flowers: 1 egg white Pinch of salt Edible flowers or petals Ultra-fine sugar

LEMON HONEY TRIPLE-LAYER CAKE Heat the oven to 325 F. Coat three 9inch cake pans with baking spray, then line the bottom of each with a round of parchment paper.

To make the cakes, in a large bowl use an electric mixer to combine the sugar, honey, eggs, lemon zest, vanilla and salt. Beat until well combined, about 1 minute. Add the butter and beat again.

In another bowl, stir together the flour and baking powder.

With the mixer on, beat the ginger ale and flour into the honey-sugar mixture in 2 additions, alternating. Divide the batter between the prepared pans and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

To make the filling, in a small saucepan over medium-high, combine the water, tea bag, lemon juice and honey.

Bing to a simmer then remove from the

heat and steep for 3 minutes. Discard the tea bag.

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and the 3 egg yolks. While whisking, add a small amount of the hot lemon water to the egg yolks. Continue to whisk while adding small amounts of the liquid until half the lemon water is incorporated. Pour the yolk mixture into the pan and whisk to combine. Continue to cook until the mixture returns to a simmer and thickens. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and press plastic wrap directly onto the surface. Refrigerate until cold.

Once the cakes and filling have cooled, assemble the layers.

Use a large, serrated knife to carefully slice the top dome off each layer horizontally to create 3 level layers of cake. Be sure to remove the parchment paper from the bottom of the cakes. Place one layer of cake on a serving platter, then spread half of the filling over the cake. Add a second layer and repeat with the filling. Top with the third layer of cake, overturning the final layer so the bottom is up. Set aside.

To make the meringue, in a small saucepan over medium, heat the honey until simmering.

In a large bowl use an electric mixer to beat the 4 egg whites and the cream of tartar until very foamy. Slowly add the hot honey while continuing to beat. Continue to beat the whites until they form stiff, glossy peaks. Frost the cake with the meringue, swirling it with the back of a spoon.

To sugar the flowers, in a small bowl beat the egg white and salt until frothy.

Using a small, clean paintbrush, paint the flowers with the egg white. Sprinkle with sugar. Decorate the cake with the flowers.

Taste the ‘huge difference’ between something local harvested today and something from California harvested who knows when

By Sarah Henning

You-pick tips

sarah@lawrence.com

● Call before you head out to a you-pick, no matter what the hours or what the website says. Quantity of ripe produce can vary and the last thing these operations want to do is disappoint you. ● Wear the right clothing. You’ll probably be on your knees and you’ll definitely be out in a field, so it’s best to wear protective clothing and sun gear. ● Make sure to know if there is a limit on the amount you can pick at any one time.

Some you-pick operations don’t allow large quantities. Others are limited by the amount of ripe produce any particular day. ● Don’t bring dogs or any other animals with you. Children, however, are encouraged.

As a child, Jane Wohletz thought the world of her uncle’s strawberry patch.

“I always wanted a you-pick strawberry patch. I remember doing it when I was little and loved it, loved it so much,” she says. “I just remember going out there with my brothers and my mom and we’d pick and then she’d do jam and we’d help her.”

Now she’s got her very own 20,000-plant you-pick strawberry patch at her family farm off 1100 Road in Lawrence, Wohletz Farm Fresh. The farm, which has been selling produce under the name Tomato Allie at the Lawrence Farmers’ Market for years, opened the you-pick patch last year. Besides wanting to emulate her childhood memories, Wohletz says it’s good to let consumers know that there is a difference between locally grown berries and the ones that have to travel from California or abroad to get to the store.

“The flavor is incredible. The ones in the store, when you break one open, it’s got the white core and they’re not juicy.

I think people just think that’s normal,” she says. “Ours, when you cut them open, are red all the way through and you get the juice out of them. That’s a huge difference.”

Wohletz Farm Fresh joins a bushel of local you-pick operations that allow non-farmers to come in and pick their own fruits and veggies from spring until fall, sometimes at a great discount to what consumers would pay retail.

Deviled eggs — in their infinite variety — are a heavenly treat “THE FLYING FORK” W e have the post-Easter blues. Who’s with me?

We’re sick with ham and potatoes and chocolate bunnies and post-traumatic family withdrawal and egg-hunting fever.

And we are sick of hard-boiled eggs. You see, I insisted on coloring eggs with Johnny. And you know, not just a few eggs. A friend had given me a couple dozen farm fresh eggs, all brown and green and beautiful, and dang if I didn’t boil up every last one of them.

Johnny wasn’t so thrilled with the process, but I was in heaven. It had been a good 20 years since I dyed an egg and I wasn’t waiting another minute. I was going, and I was going big.

But you know, after a week of eating hard-boiled eggs for every breakfast and snack, we grew a little tired of them, so I decided to make them new again. Enter the deviled egg. It’s no secret that I

a blog by Megan Stuke think eggs are nature’s perfect food, and that I want eggs with and on everything, so it stands to reason that I would love any and all deviled eggs, and it’s true, I do. But I especially love a deviled egg that is a little nontraditional. It started years ago with my friend Sherry’s wasabi eggs, and I’ve been throwing random ingredients into deviled-egg filling ever since. You can do capers or salmon or diced-up shrimp. You could try stirring in some artichoke hearts or a little pesto. Or what about a little white bean puree, or

Live Eardthly Frien

some bacon? Cheese? Why yes, I think I’ll have some with cream cheese and maybe we’ll try some feta. The possibilities are limitless, because eggs? They are nothing if not the perfect vehicle for all sorts of other flavors.

This time I opened up the fridge to see what I could add to my eggs, and came up a little disappointed. I was out of wasabi, no shrimp or smoked salmon just lying around. I was too lazy to fry bacon and too tired to make pesto. So I went for big flavor with little effort. After all, isn’t that what we all really want on any given weeknight anyway?

First, I have to say that I have two fairly strict rules about deviled eggs, no matter what the rest of the ingredients. First, it has to be mayonnaise, NOT MIRACLE WHIP, and second, it has to have a little vinegar or else the filling is too creamy and not tart.

With those basic elements, let’s begin.

I decided on deviled eggs with curry and horseradish deviled eggs.

We are big on spicy and big on strong flavors and both of these additions deliver just that.

The process is straightforward.

1. Boil eggs.

2. Let them cool, preferably overnight.

3. Peel eggs.

4. Slice them in half and remove the yolks carefully.

5. Mix up your filling as you see fit.

Both of my fillings had the same basic ingredients, save the few key differences. I started with six eggs for each, then added 2 teaspoons of fresh chives to the yolks. Then I added a hefty pinch of salt (eggs need salt), a tablespoon of white vinegar, a heaping spoonful of mayonnaise and a few turns of the black pepper grinder.

To the horseradish bowl I added a tablespoon of horseradish, and was ready to stir. To the curry bowl I added a tablespoon of storebought curry powder (if you make your own curry it will probably be stronger, so adjust down) and a teaspoon of spicy Dijon mustard.

With a fork, mash and stir until the mixture is smooth. Then arrange the egg “boats” on a pretty plate and begin filling. I didn’t feel like searching for a pastry bag or fixing tips so I just shoveled my filling into a ziplock baggie and cut the corner off. It made the piping easy, if not fancylooking. A pastry bag and tip would make a much fancier presentation, but you know, this stuff is just for me and Mr. Meat and Potatoes and we don’t need no stinking fancy eggs.

Once everything was piped in, I sprinkled with fresh chives over the top, and, voila, the resurrected eggs (get it?) were ready to eat. And eat, we did.

this rather peculiar, not to mention condescending.

The real problem is his need to blame others for his behavior. Last Saturday, he wasn’t able to mow the lawn. No big deal. Rather than say he couldn’t get to it, he rambled on about how our son usually does it, the sun was too bright, etc. Our children are now beginning to notice. My husband insists this is how normal people act. Our teenage anniesmailbox@comcast.net daughter commented that but she seems distant. I am “normal people” don’t make sick over this. Can you help? excuses, and they take responsibility for their actions. How — Sick in Scranton can I get him to see the poor Dear Scranton: Please try to understand that this is not a reflection on your ability to be a friend. It is simply that you do not fit into this particular group of women. It could be that Cathy’s friends are jealous of your longer relationship and are trying to marginalize you.

Or it simply could be that you have different tastes and emotional needs. The best way to retain your friendship with Cathy is to remove yourself from this group. See her on your own. You’ll enjoy it more.

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

In case you hadn’t noticed, the media is ablaze with fascination for the upcoming royal wedding. The union of Prince William and commoner Kate Middleton is essentially a ceremony in another country involving an institution Americans rather emphatically rejected way back in 1776. Do Americans care about this? Or is this just a media frenzy, not unlike the pre-Oscar hullabaloo for a film nobody bothered to see?

My wife believes, as she does in almost every matter not related to the workings of the TV remote control, that I’m completely wrong and wrongheaded about this. Everyone loves a wedding, she insists.

And everyone wants to see the dress.

Her take on things certainly explains why Meredith Vieira and Matt Lauer host “Inside the Royal Wedding” (7 p.m., NBC). Or why the Bio channel is repeating the 2011 Lifetime movie “William & Kate” (7 p.m., Bio), starring Camilla Luddington, followed by a full-fledged “Biography” (9 p.m., Bio), titled “Kate Middleton: Uncommon Bride.” BBC America repeats “Prince William’s Africa” (7 p.m., BBC America). It’s about the young man’s visit to Botswana. But the title might infer that the whole continent belongs to him and him alone.

But even if you find the royals less than fascinating, it’s impossible to deny the devotion of their subjects. At least some of them. “Extreme Royal Collections” (9 p.m., TLC) visits with three women who have taken Windsor-mania to near “Hoarders” levels. British-born Margaret has more than 30,000 commemorative teacups and other ephemera. A wealthy American collector has spent upward of six figures on royal gowns dating from Charles I to Princess Diana. An Australian couple has established a bus-tour destination/tourist trap with their vast assortment of royal kitsch.

Perhaps the oddest moment of “Collectors” is when Margaret stands besides a lifesize wax dummy of Prince William and confides her best wishes toward him, his fiancee and his family — his mother and grandmother in particular. Even Margaret recognizes that she’s talking to a waxwork, but there’s nothing insincere about her affection. In that moment, it’s easy to understand the particular if peculiar pull of the royals. For all of their foibles, they embody a powerful combination of the religious and the patriotic, with a large dose of celebrity thrown in for good measure.

The dime-store idolatry on display here reminds us that some saints, or at least their statues, are more popular than others.

It’s safe to say that the demand for Diana ephemera remains healthy, while Camilla and Charles trinkets gather only dust.

GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT By Kevin Carr

Dear Fran: Your husband seems to be indulging in a little self-aggrandizement meant to make himself look good at the expense of others. We don’t know who he is trying to impress, but it obviously isn’t working. Perhaps if you call it to his attention, he will see that he would gain far more respect if he held himself accountable.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Wednesday, April 27: This year, you get a new beginning. In June, you enter a new life and luck cycle. Often, the first year of this period draws unusual events — some longed for, and others unexpected.

If you are single, you could meet someone of significance this year. If you are attached, the two of you seem to exchange happiness rays between you.

Pisces can be counted on.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★ You might want to take a stand and revise a project or plan.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ You will want to visualize more of what you want. Work on conveying these abstract ideas in a more concrete manner.

Dear Annie: I have known “Cathy” since grade school. We are now in our 50s. In the past several years, we have become close again. Last summer, I set up a luncheon with “Lois,” a mutual friend of ours. Cathy also brought two of her own friends. The women seemed nice, and we got together a few times for dinner and we also took a few trips as a group, but I always felt like a third wheel.

I haven’t heard from Cathy much lately, so I finally asked her if something was wrong.

Evidently, her friends aren’t crazy about me. Lois informed me that I had done some things that made them angry.

One was that I left the beach early so I could get ready for dinner, and the other was that I didn’t participate in a discussion. (As I get older, I like to listen more and talk less and never thought it would offend anyone.) I barely remember these things, but I apologized to both ladies for not being more in tune with their feelings.

My husband and other friends were astonished that grown women would be so angry over something so trivial.
