The number of people who are homeless is increasing in Douglas County, and so are the odds that they’re female, a new report from City Hall suggests.

Homeless totals in early 2011 grew to 226 people — up from 104 in 2009 — according to an official “point-in-time” count conducted by city and county leaders once every two years.

The survey also found that the number of women who are homeless increased sharply, rising to 44 percent in 2011 compared with 25 percent in 2009.

Loring Henderson, director of the Lawrence Community Shelter, said the numbers were a Loring Henderson, mixed bag.

“I don’t think the number of director of the homeless people has really grown Lawrence at all,” he said. “I just think the Community count is better. I don’t know that you can rely on 226 being a good Shelter, thinks the numbers number either, but it is better.”

Henderson said he thinks the haven’t grown; new report does a better job of the way of showing who is homeless and counting has some of the reasons why. He agrees with the f inding that simply improved.

Intersection camera to help fight crime

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

There’s a new crimefighter in town, and it’s hanging from a traffic light in west Lawrence.

The Lawrence Police Department confirmed Friday that it has installed video cameras at the intersection of Clinton Parkway and Wakarusa Drive to capture the license plate numbers of vehicles suspected in a crime.

“We would like to take a look at having cameras installed in other intersections, depending on how well they work and how the public reacts to them,” said Sgt. Matt Sarna, a spokesman for the department. “But right now, we’re just in the test phase.”

The cameras are connected to a system that allows police officers to enter the plate number of a suspect’s vehicle, for example, into a computer system. The camera then keeps an eye out for the license plate and sends an immediate notification to the police department once it is spotted.

Sarna said department leaders examined a similar system that is in place in the Kansas City

metro areas. He said the cameras likely could be useful in finding vehicles associated with robberies, child abduction cases or other instances where a tag number is known and time is of the essence.

The cameras will not be used to ticket motorists who run red lights. Such systems are used in other states, but the city’s traffic engineer said that red-light cameras are not legal in Kansas. The state Legislature would have to pass a new law that would allow people to be ticketed in such a manner.

Sarna also said the system is not set up to record live video at the intersection. He said the department plans to use the system only as a “community safety initiative during an emergency.”

The cameras were purchased with grant funds, but details about their cost weren’t immediately available Friday afternoon. Sarna said the only cost to the city was installation, which he said was nominal.

Cables are not a ‘silver bullet’ to stop wrecks, KDOT warns

OLATHE — Kansas Department of Transportation officials told reporters Friday afternoon that cable median barriers on divided highways weren’t a “silver bullet” in stopping all accidents as the state studies the safety of Kansas Highway 10.

“Cable barriers are not benign. They don’t solve all the problems and can in some situations create problems,” KDOT Secretary Deb Miller said Friday. “So our deliberations must center on whether they provide more benefits or create more liabilities. The question isn’t, do we

TOPEKA — Conservative Republicans on Friday sought more cuts to schools, social services and prisons.

The proposal — crafted by House Appropriations Committee members Anthony Brown of Eudora, Owen Donohoe of Shawnee and Kasha Kelley of Arkansas City — would slice another $138 million from a previous budget approved by the House.

Donohoe said the measure reflected frustration felt by some legislators who have been encouraged

by Gov. Sam Brownback, a Republican, to propose deeper cuts but then have been unable to see them through.

“All I’ve heard from the governor and everybody is bring us cuts and we’ll consider them,” Donohoe said.

Donohoe also said the proposal would produce a state budget ending balance of $200 million, which is much larger than previous budget proposals.

Brownback has said he wants a healthy ending balance to cover potential revenue shortfalls later in the year. He noted that former Gov. Mark Parkinson made budget cuts because of revenue decreases.

“That’s not the Kansas way, to over-appropriate,” Brownback said. “It would be wise to have bigger ending balances.”

But several Republicans and Democrats on the Appropriations Committee said the proposed cuts were too deep and were being proposed too late in

cable barriers on K-10 east of Lawrence. KDOT in a 2008 study decided to install cable barriers on two highways that have shorter medians than K10 near Topeka and Wichita.

Officials were scheduled to study K-10 and other four-lane highways again next year until Brownback’s directive, Miller said.

Two Eudora residents, 5year-old Cainan Shutt and 24year-old Ryan Pittman, died in a crossover crash east of the Church Street interchange, leading Eudora Mayor Scott Hopson to write a letter to Brownback asking the state to immediately install cable median barriers from Lawrence east to Interstate 435 in Johnson County.

Brownback also directed KDOT to expedite a project to be completed this year to widen the shoulders and install rumble strips along K10 in Douglas County. Those features are already in place in Johnson County.

Ali Shutt, Cainan Shutt’s mother, after the news conference said her family and supporters were thankful for Brownback’s directive but said the state needed to do more than just install rumble strips on K-10. She said cable barriers would help prevent dangerous cross-median accidents that often result in head-on collisions.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -WORLD

“We realize that this still could cause accidents, but it’s going to save the next person on the other side,” said Shutt, whose children were riding with their grandparents, Danny and Ann Basel, to attend an Easter egg hunt.

Miller and Younger said cable median barriers have proved to be effective, especially on Missouri highways, but they said generally Kansas fatalities from cross-median crashes have been low compared with other states. Miller also said Missouri four-lane highways generally have narrower medians.

Shutt and other supporters through a Facebook page have expressed alarm that the April 16 accident was the second cross-median fatality crash since August. Another fatality accident occurred in October when a woman was driving the wrong way near De Soto.

According to KDOT, nine cross-median fatality crashes have occurred on K-10 since 2000 resulting in 10 deaths.

But officials said K-10’s fatality crash rate from 2004 to 2008 was 0.56 per 100 million vehicle miles traveled while the statewide average on all highways was 1.23 per 100 million vehicle miles traveled.

Younger said the state annually averages five crossmedian crash fatalities on its entire 1,000 miles of four-lane divided highways.

Younger and Miller said the cable barrier study also must take into account potential drawbacks, like an increase in

accidents, injuries or damage because a cable barrier can limit drivers from being able to recover in a wider median.

Miller also said cable barriers can cause delays for emergency responses and they are not designed to stop large trucks.

“What we try to do is look broadly at the system, at the type of crashes we’re having on our system and look at systemic changes we can make that make a difference,” said Miller, who called the April 16 crash a tragedy.

A cable median barrier costs an estimated $150,000 per mile to install plus an average $20,000 to $25,000 per mile to maintain it annually, according to KDOT. Kansas Highway Patrol troopers have said they are still investigating the cause of the April 16 crash, including the possibility that drugs contributed after a preliminary autopsy indicated marijuana, benzodiazepine and methadone were in the system of Pittman, who drove the car that struck the westbound minivan Cainan was riding in.

Miller said KDOT would meet on May 12 with city officials, including from Eudora and Lawrence, to talk about forming a local group to provide input for the cable median study, and KDOT officials hope to reach a decision in the next four to six months.

When Karen Weber Cancilla was previously on the Kansas University campus, things were different. Girls wore black skirts to class, a number of city streets weren’t paved, “West Side Story” had won a Best Picture Oscar and Dick Harp was coach of the men’s basketball team.

That was 50 years ago.

Cancilla, who now lives in California, returned to campus Friday for the first time since graduating for the 50-year reunion of the KU class of 1961.

The event, held in the Kansas Union Ballroom, featured nearly 200 graduates and guests of the Jayhawk nation.

Cancilla said the campus had changed plenty since her days as a student, a contributing factor to her recently getting lost.

Her saving point of reference?

Strong Hall.

“I was like, I know where I’m at,” she said about recognizing the building that used to serve as the union. “If Strong hadn’t been there, I’d still be turned around out there.”

Many of the alumni in attendance, including Cancilla, mingled and reminisced with former classmates as well as fraternity and sorority brothers and sisters. The atmosphere was one of friendship

They didn’t know each other back then but they said they enjoyed getting to know each other at the reunion. and shared experiences. Dennis Park, a 1961 graduate and current Oklahoma resident, made the trip back to Lawrence with his wife, Anne.

He fondly recalled the time he spent on Mount Oread.

“I liked it so well it took me five years to graduate,” he joked.

South Carolina residents James Redfearn and wife, Jan, agreed a lot had changed, though not everything.

“We went to The Wheel this afternoon and had a beer,” Jan said, smiling. “It has not changed at all.”

The reunion’s festivities

included dinner, music and the presentation of gold class pins to commemorate the graduates’ induction into the Gold Medal Club.

KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little performed the honor of distributing the pins to the loyal Jayhawk graduates.

“It’s just another evidence of how committed the students and alumni of KU are to the university,” Gray-Little said. “The things that they do reflect well on the university.

They are so important to us.

The count was taken on Jan. 26, but results were released on Friday. The count includes only people who are “literally homeless,” which is different from some other homeless counts. Some counts include

people who are “doubling up” by sleeping on a friend’s couch or a similar situation.

This count only includes people who are in an emergency shelter, transitional housing or are sleeping in cars, under bridges or other places not meant for human habitation.

Gov. calls for more oversight of KBA

1 | BEIRUT

Rights group says 42 killed nationwide Security forces opened fire Friday on demonstrators trying to break an army blockade on the southern city of Daraa, while thousands of others across Syria defied a protest ban and denounced President Bashar Assad’s harsh crackdown on a six-week uprising. At least 42 people were killed, including 15 in the march on Daraa, according to witnesses and a human rights group.

The protesters in cities across Syria — including the capital of Damascus — called for Assad’s ouster, with some chanting “We are not afraid!”

Human rights activist Mustafa Osso said 42 people were killed, but the death toll could rise. His human rights group, based in Syria, compiles casualty tolls from the crackdown.

A witness in Daraa — the heart of the uprising — said residents stayed indoors because the city has been under siege by the military since Monday, when thousands of soldiers backed by tanks and snipers stormed in. People were too afraid even to venture out to mosques for prayers, the witness said.

“We are in our houses but our hearts are in the mosques,” the witness said, speaking by satellite telephone and asking that his name not be published for fear of reprisals.

2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

Appeals court won’t halt stem cell funds Opponents of taxpayer-funded embryonic stem cell research lost a key round Friday in a federal appeals court ruling that gives support to the Obama administration’s expansion of the promising but disputed approach to finding disease cures.

In a 2-1 decision, a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington ruled that opponents are not likely to succeed in their lawsuit to stop federal financing of stem cell research and overturned a district judge’s order that would have blocked the funding.

The panel reversed an opinion issued last August

by U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth, who said the research likely violates the law against federal funding of embryo destruction.

The White House said the ruling was a victory for scientists and patients. “Responsible stem cell research has the potential to treat some of our most devastating diseases and conditions and offers hope to families across the country and around the world,” spokesman Nick Papas said.

Researchers hope one day to use stem cells in ways that cure spinal cord injuries, Parkinson’s disease and other ailments.

Wedding party: Friends gather early to celebrate royal marriage

By Brenna Hawley bhawley@ljworld.com

ONLINE: Watch the video at LJWorld.com

Jane Budde puts on this type of party every 30 years. At least, that’s been the case so far.

A 4:30 a.m. start time didn’t stop Budde and eight of her friends from gathering to watch the royal wedding live, something many of them did together when Prince Charles and Lady Diana got married in 1981. Armed with hats, English tea and, in one case, a feather boa, the women watched coverage of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding early Friday morning.

“We love to have a good

time and love to celebrate things,” Sheryl Jacobs said.

Jerree Catlin was getting ready for the party, convinced she didn’t care about the wedding. Then, as she watched the coverage, she changed her mind.

“I got sucked in,” she said.

Goose bumps prickled the ladies’ arms when Kate Middleton walked down the aisle in her gown, which many say drew inspiration from dresses worn by Princess Diana, Grace Kelly and Maria in “The Sound of Music.”

The women stood when the queen entered the church.

All of the women at the party had traveled to England and been inside Westminster Abbey, where the ceremony

took place.

“I’ve been to London a lot, and it’s fun to see the places,” Ange Stalcup said.

Middleton’s gown, the hats of wedding attendees and the choir were all hot topics at the party.

“Nobody does it up like the British,” Markie Bieri said.

Budde said the best part about the party was watching with good friends, and seeing that William and Kate seemed to be a happy couple made it even better.

“It’s what’s good about the world,” said Kathy Hurt, Budde’s sister. “We need to believe in the fairy tale.”

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback on Friday pushed for more oversight of a state economic development agency that is under investigation.

“I have a number of concerns,” Brownback said about the Kansas Bioscience Authority.

“I support the mission of the KBA,” he said at a news conference, but added, Brownback “it has to be done right.”

The KBA is responsible for investing tax dollars to lure bioscience companies and research to Kansas.

In recent weeks, state officials have said the agency is under investigation by the Johnson County District Attorney’s Office.

Prosecutors, however, have refused to say what they are looking into. Brownback said he met with the Johnson County district attorney and said he is “concerned,” although Brownback Please see KBA, page 4A

SATURDAY COLUMN

Firing reveals broader concerns at KU Medical Center

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

“We are facing a potential upheaval; a lot of people are questioning whether they want to stay here.”

This is the opinion of an outstanding faculty member in the Kansas University School of Medicine. Others have expressed the same concern, but this very serious matter has remained veiled because of concern that if this situation becomes public it might derail or postpone the KU Medical Center’s chances of receiving the highly prized National Cancer Center designation.

The lid came off this explosive issue with the firing earlier this month of Dr. Curtis Klaassen, a university distinguished professor and chairman of the department of pharmacology, toxicology and therapeutics at KUMC in Kansas City, Kan. He has been on the medical center faculty since 1968 and is one of the school’s true all-stars. A fellow faculty member described him as a “good man at heart with an excep-

tional reputation. He is known internationally and he has made his department out of nothing. He is highly successful and does a great job with new faculty members and his post-doctoral students.”

Klaassen was fired April 12 in a letter from Barbara Atkinson, executive vice chancellor and executive dean of the School of Medicine.

The letter stated, “This letter is to officially notify you in writing that you are no longer chair of the Department of Pharmacology, Toxicology and Therapeutics at the University of Kansas School of Medicine as of our meeting on April 6, 2011, when I told you this then. In that meeting, I gave you the opportunity to characterize this dismissal as a resignation from the chair position. However, to date, I have not received a letter of resignation, even after the reminder e-mail I sent to you on April 8 to give me your decision no later than Monday, April 11.

“You are relieved of any and all responsibilities related to the chair position. You are not to direct or lead the faculty and may no longer call department faculty meetings.

You are not to interfere with the f inancial management of the department in any way.

“I have appointed Dr. Gerald Carlson as the interim chair, and you are to cooperate with him and

COMMENTARY report to him on all matters. Sincerely, Barbara.”

On April 10, Atkinson sent a memo to medical school faculty, and perhaps others, saying, “I want everyone to know that this action was taken only after very careful consideration and deliberation. I particularly considered what would be in the overall future best interests of the department and the programs of the medical center and the university.

“Because at its essence, this is a personnel matter, it would be inappropriate to discuss this decision further here except to say that the chairs of all KUMC departments serve at the pleasure of the Dean and/or Executive Vice Chancel-

lor…”

Senior faculty members, graduate students and post-doctoral students told this writer that many medical school faculty members have left their administrative posts at KUMC during Atkinson’s tenure because they were “fired, forced to ‘resign,’ marginalized or left because they apparently found it impossible to interact with the dean.”

They add that she does not follow the university’s guidelines and has hired faculty, chairs and many people in the cancer center without search committees. She also does not provide annual written evaluations of faculty who report to her.

Anger over Atkinson’s actions and behavior is particularly intense among faculty and students in the basic sciences departments.

Chairmen of various medical school departments say the school’s promotions and tenure committee denied tenure for nine faculty last year, and the dean overturned eight of the nine decisions. They say most faculty won’t run for faculty governance committees or, if they do,

they don’t attend meetings because it is “the dean’s way or the highway.”

Others say they are worried about the financial solvency of KUMC under Atkinson’s leadership.

“The bottom line is that KUMC appears to be autocratic. There appears to be no freedom of speech, no joint governance and no transparency,” said a group of graduate and post-doctoral students.

This unrest is not something that just popped up with Klaassen’s firing.

In September 2010, a group of seven KUMC faculty members, now known as the “Group of Seven,” told Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little about a number of their concerns. All seven faculty members were chairs of their various departments, and they originally titled their concerns a “Declaration of No Confidence by the Committee of 7.”

Later they met with the chancellor and talked about a wide range of matters. This prompted a letter Please see KUMC, page 4A

from Gray-Little to Atkinson, telling her about the meeting and that many topics had been discussed. The chancellor added, “Much of our discussion focused on governance. The chairs expressed the view that faculty in general and department heads in particular, have little or no voice in the governance of the school, contrary to school policy. As a result, they feel they have no part in influencing decisions that affect them directly.”

In another part of the letter, Gray-Little stated, “… the chairs were chagrined that those discussions did not lead to a pattern of consultation for making clinical decisions.”

She added, “The recent changes regarding the organization and leadership of reproductive biology form the latest flash point. As you can imagine, they expressed substantial dismay about these decisions, but even more about the longer term implications of this type of decision making. For example, they feel the faculty in their departments are beginning to be alienated from the senior administration. They cite instances in which they have not been able to honor commitments to recently hired faculty members because of changes made without consultation. As a result, this has eroded trust in the administration and makes new faculty believe that the School of Medicine is not a desirable place to be in the long term, which weakens their commitment to KU. The chairs cited other particular examples to illustrate their disenfranchisement, but the underlying issue was the same.

“I know there are always multiple approaches to explaining and understanding an issue. I write you because of the depth of distress that I sensed in the chairs and their concern about not only their domains of responsibility, but also the long-term economic viability and governance of the School. Sincerely, Bernadette Gray-Little.”

This letter was written Aug. 27, 2010, and apparently had no effect because Atkinson’s governance at the medical school seems to be the same, if not worse.

Other faculty members have written to Atkinson calling attention to their concerns, but, again, there has been little if any corrective action.

It is obvious Klaassen is a deeply committed KUMC faculty member. It’s also clear he has been fighting for his department and is terribly upset and frustrated about what is happening to the basic sciences at the medical school. He worries about the fiscal sustainability of the medical school considering the recent approval by the Kansas Board of Regents for a medical school program in Salina and improvements to the medical school in Wichita. Those actions came at a time when regents acknowledge they have no money to pay for the new and expanded operations. Many at the Kansas City medical school are fearful money will be diverted from their budgets to pay for programs in Salina and Wichita.

They fault the regents for their lack of fiscal competence in starting these programs with no money.

Klaassen is passionate about his department and what is happening at the school. As one associate said, “He probably let his control slip in dealing with the dean, and now he is paying the price.”

Join us for the Lawrence Humane Society’s

Mutt ‘n Strut

According to a number of faculty members, Atkinson rules by fear. No one wants to counter or question her actions and policies. She does what she wants without asking for input from others at the school.

One observer said, “Dr. Klaassen was not f ired because he was incompetent or did anything wrong but rather because he dared to differ with the dean. He probably was very aggressive and she fired him.”

This faculty member said, “Atkinson is destroying the very structure of the basic science department, and Dr. Klaassen has tried to do what he can to protect and strengthen the departments.”

It’s not a happy family at the KU medical school, but Atkinson’s critics are quick to point out she is “politically smart.” They claim she was able to maintain her position and power during former Chancellor Robert Hemenway’s latter years, when he was not on top of the situation as much as he should have been.

Then she realized GrayLittle would hesitate to make any major changes so soon after moving into the chancellor’s office. Also, with the medical center pulling out all the stops to try to be certified as a National Cancer Center, the chancellor would not want to make any changes in the school’s leadership that might damage that effort.

Nevertheless, it is clear there is little genuine support for Atkinson among many at the school. They do not challenge her for fear of severe recrimination. They claim many of her decisions have had, or will have, severe financial repercussions and that it will “cost a ton of money to find another chair of K laassen’s department.”

It’s clear there are serious

problems at the KU medical school and that this has been known by insiders for some time. Unfortunately, little has been done to correct the situation.

This is another case of Kansas regents either being in the dark or not having the courage to do anything about it. Does Gray-Little have the courage to do anything about it? Or are people so fearful about endangering the NCI designation that they are willing to put up with Atkinson’s disruptive leadership?

If Dr. Roy Jensen, director of the KU Cancer Center, has put together a compelling case for the Comprehensive Cancer Center, it’s likely to be approved, although not necessarily on the f irst attempt.

University officials obviously do not want the public to know about the ugly situation within the medical school, but it would be wrong to continue the cover-up.

The integrity and reputation of the school is too important not to confront the leadership issue and make the proper corrections.

A leader who lacks respect and admiration and rules by fear, a disregard for policies, questionable fiscal management and not telling the truth should trump any concern over raising questions among those who will decide whether the school deserves recognition as a National Cancer Center.

What has been allowed to go on at the medical school is wrong and must be corrected.

Regents, as well as the chancellor, should be embarrassed for having allowed this situation to fester.

Kansas deserves better. Who is going to step up and restore enthusiasm and sound direction at the School of Medicine? Or is Atkinson untouchable?

refused to say what his concerns were.

In the past month, the KBA’s president and chief executive officer Tom Thornton resigned and took a job with the prestigious Cleveland Clinic. Prior to that, Thornton had been accused by state Sen. Susan Wagle, RWichita, of conflicts of interest. Thornton and John Carlin, the KBA board chairman and former Democratic governor, denied he had any conflicts.

Legislative leaders — Republican and Democratic — have also defended Thornton, saying he was a good leader at KBA and was integral in helping the state land the National Bio and AgroDefense Facility, to be built in Manhattan.

over the agency’s financial records. The KBA complied, but Brownback has since said he didn’t think the audit would be independent enough.

Wagle, who is chair of the Senate Commerce Committee, said that while the investigation and audit are going on there has been talk of restructuring the KBA board to allow university leaders, who currently serve as advisers, to be voting members of the board.

Wagle said the proposal would be temporary and is aimed at making “sure we have oversight of the finances.”

Brownback said he supported such a plan, calling it a “prudent move” for perhaps one year.

Democrats have alleged that Brownback, a Republican, is seeking to get control of the KBA, but Brownback has denied that is the case.

Prosecutors on Friday filed four charges against a 19-yearold Olathe woman accused of running over her boyfriend’s foot with a vehicle Thursday during an altercation in a parking lot in the 1900 block of Massachusetts Street.

Douglas County prosecutors charged Christina Rojas with reckless aggravated battery, aggravated assault, misdemeanor battery and reckless driving.

Police said the man’s injuries were not believed to be serious.

Rojas was released from jail Friday afternoon after posting $2,000 bond.

A judge ordered her to have no contact with her boyfriend and set her next court appearance for 2 p.m. Monday.

The public can drop off tablets and capsules. Liquid products, like cough syrup, need to be securely sealed in the original container. Lewis said participants should remove prescription labels before turning them in.

The drop-off service is free and will be anonymous. Officers cannot accept intravenous solutions, needles or illegal drugs.

Organizers say the drop-off sites are a community effort among pharmacists, law enforcement, substance abuse advocates and others.

Kansas University operated a drop-off site on Wescoe Beach on campus Thursday, and students dropped off 36.7 pounds of unused medication, said KU Public Safety Capt. Schuyler Bailey.

In Eudora, Byrne’s Pharmacy is accepting medications from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today at its new location, 600 E. 20th St. Laura Calwell, the Kansas riverkeeper, said people should not flush drugs down the toilet because the substances are tough to eliminate from water systems and the chemicals can cause problems for animals living in bodies of water. “There’s a lot of education that needs to happen,” she said. “It’s a relatively new problem.”

Tax lien sought to collect KU debt

A former employee who owes Kansas Athletics Inc. $56,000 after pleading guilty for his role in a ticket-stealing conspiracy now faces the prospect of a tax lien in Douglas County.

This week, the department filed documents seeking to register a post-judgment lien against Jason Jeffries, a former assistant director of ticket operations who pleaded guilty to failing to notify authorities about the ongoing tickets scam, which prosecutors say lasted for five years and cost the department at least $2 million.

Jeffries has been ordered to pay the department $56,000 in restitution. Should Jeffries attempt to sell property in the county, the lien would prevent him from passing clear title until the debt to the department had been paid, said Jim Marchiony, a department spokesman.

“This is a method of attempting to collect on that debt,” Marchiony said.

Judge won’t delay ticket-scalping sentence WICHITA (AP) — A judge has refused to give a former Kansas University athletics official an extra 30 days before starting his prison term for taking part in a $2 million ticket scalping conspiracy.

Rodney Jones had requested the delay so he could have orthopedic surgery.

U.S. District Judge Wesley Brown denied the request Friday without comment. Jones has been ordered to start serving a 46-month sentence at the federal prison in El Reno, Okla., on May 2.

The former KU assistant athletic director pleaded guilty in January to one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States.

Jones also was ordered to pay $1.3 million in restitution.

the budget process.

“Anything we have done in this committee is pretty much going out the window with this amendment,” said Appropriations Chair Marc Rhoades, R-Newton.

Rep. Sharon Schwartz, RWashington, said that filing the amendment so late in the session meant that the budget subcommittees couldn’t review the impacts of the cuts.

The Brown-Donohoe-Kelley amendment would reduce base state aid to schools to $3,602 per pupil. Schools currently receive $4,012 per pupil, and the current House budget position is $3,762 per pupil.

Committee members said the amendment would also short the prison system by $44 million and would decrease funding for disability services.

Rhoades said the committee would vote on the measure Monday.

Even rescuers hobbled by worst tornadoes since 1932

By Jay Reeves and Greg Bluestein Associated Press Writers

TUSCALOOSA, ALA. — Southerners found their emergency safety net shredded Friday as they tried to emerge from the nation’s deadliest tornado disaster since the Great Depression.

Emergency buildings are wiped out. Bodies are stored in refrigerated trucks.

Authorities are begging for such basics as flashlights. In one neighborhood, the storms even left firefighters to work without a truck.

The death toll from Wednesday’s storms reached 329 across seven states, including 238 in Alabama, making it the deadliest U.S. tornado outbreak since March 1932, when another Alabama storm killed 332 people. Tornadoes that swept across the South and Midwest in April 1974 left 315 people dead.

Hundreds if not thousands of people were injured Wednesday — 990 in Tuscaloosa alone — and as many as 1 million Alabama homes and businesses remained without power.

The scale of the disaster astonished President Barack Obama when he arrived in the state Friday.

“I’ve never seen devastation like this,” he said, standing in bright sunshine amid the wreckage in Tuscaloosa, where at least 45 people were killed and entire neighborhoods were flattened.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, first lady Michelle Obama and Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley greet residents Friday in the Alberta neighborhood in Tuscaloosa, Ala., as they toured tornado damage. it “a humanitarian crisis” for his city of more than 83,000.

Maddox said up to 446 people were unaccounted for in the city, though he added that many of those reports probably were from people who have since found their loved ones but have not notified authorities. Cadaver-detecting dogs were deployed in the city Friday but they had not found any remains, Maddox said.

At least one tornado — a 205 mph monster that left at least 13 people dead in Smithville, Miss. — ranked in the National Weather Service’s most devastating category, EF-5. Meteorologist Jim LaDue said he expects “many more” of Wednesday’s tornadoes to receive that same rating, with winds topping 200 mph.

Tornadoes struck with unexpected speed in several states, and the difference between life and death was hard to fathom. Four people died in Bledsoe County, Tenn., but a family survived being tossed across a road in their modular home, which was destroyed, Mayor Bobby Collier said.

By Friday, residents whose homes were blown to pieces were seeing their losses worsen — not by nature, but by man. In Tuscaloosa and other cities, looters have been picking through the wreckage to steal what little the victims have left.

Overwhelmed Tuscaloosa police imposed a curfew and got help from National Guard troops to try to stop the scavenging.

Shuttle Endeavour launch delayed CAPE CANAVERAL, FLA. (AP) — The president was on his way.

Space shuttle Endeavour’s astronauts were riding out to the launch pad in a van. And a wounded Rep. Gabrielle Giffords had flown in from her Houston rehab hospital to watch her husband blast off Friday on the historic, next-to-last shuttle mission.

Then it all came to a sudden stop.

Without warning, a faulty heater part forced NASA to scrub the launch and slam the brakes on the space agency’s biggest event in years, a flight

made more fascinating to many by the plight of Giffords and her husband, Mark Kelly, the mission commander.

Endeavour’s flight was delayed until at least Monday.

“Bummed about the scrub!!

But important to make sure everything on shuttle is working properly,” Giffords’ staff tweeted.

Travel plans for the Arizona congresswoman, who is still recovering from a gunshot wound to the head from an assassination attempt in January, are still up in the air, said her spokesman, C.J.

President Barack Obama and his family came to Cape Canaveral anyway, and he and his family met with Giffords for about 10 minutes.

Karamargin said only that Giffords was pleased to meet with them.

As many as 700,000 tailgaters and other spectators had been expected to pour into the seaside area for the liftoff, one of the biggest launch-day crowds in decades.

The gown was classic-looking, in silk gazar with long intricate lace sleeves, and it will probably be a force of pop culture for years to come.

Obama may be moving toward something resembling a doctrine. One of his advisers described the president’s actions in Libya as “leading from behind.”

— Ryan Lizza, The New Yorker, May 2 issue WASHINGTON — To be precise, leading from behind is a style, not a doctrine. Doctrines involve ideas, but since there are no discernible ones that make sense of Obama foreign policy — Lizza’s painstaking two-year chronicle shows it to be as ad hoc, erratic and confused as it appears — this will have to do.

And it surely is an accurate description, from President Obama’s shocking passivity during Iran’s 2009 Green Revolution to his dithering on Libya, acting at the very last moment, then handing off to a bickering coalition, yielding the current bloody stalemate. It’s been a foreign policy of hesitation, delay and indecision, marked by plaintive appeals to the (fictional) “international community” to do what only America can.

But underlying that style, assures this Obama adviser, there really are ideas. Indeed, “two unspoken beliefs,” explains Lizza. “That the relative power of the U.S. is declining, as rivals like China rise, and that the U.S. is reviled in many parts of the world.”

Amazing. This is why Obama is deliberately diminishing American presence, standing and leadership in the world?

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

Obama thinks anti“Americanism is a verdict on America’s fitness for leadership.”

Take proposition one: We must “lead from behind” because U.S. relative power is declining. Even if you accept the premise, it’s a complete non sequitur. What does China’s rising GDP have to do with American buck-passing on Libya, misjudging Iran, appeasing Syria?

True, China is rising. But first, it is the only power of any significance rising militarily relative to us. Russia is recovering from levels of military strength so low that it barely registers globally. And European power is in true decline (see their performance — except for the British — in Afghanistan and their current misadventures in Libya).

And second, the challenge of a rising

Chinese military is still exclusively regional. It would affect a war over Taiwan. It has zero effect on anything significantly beyond China’s coast. China has no blue-water navy. It has no foreign bases. It cannot project power globally.

It might in the future — but by what logic should that paralyze us today?

Proposition two: We must lead from behind because we are reviled. Pray tell, when were we not? During Vietnam? Or earlier, under Eisenhower?

When his vice president was sent on a good will trip to Latin America, he was spat upon and so threatened by the crowds that he had to cut short his trip.

Or maybe later, under the blessed Reagan? The Reagan years were marked by vast demonstrations in the capitals of our closest allies denouncing America as a warmongering menace taking the world into nuclear winter.

“Obama came of age politically,” explains Lizza, “during the post-Cold War era, a time when America’s unmatched power created widespread resentment.” But the world did not begin with the coming to consciousness of Barack Obama. Cold War resentments ran just as deep.

It is the fate of any assertive superpower to be envied, denounced and blamed for everything under the sun.

Nothing has changed. Moreover, for a country so deeply reviled, why during the massive unrest in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Yemen, Jordan and Syria have anti-American demonstrations

been such a rarity?

Who truly reviles America the hegemon? The world that Obama lived in and shaped him intellectually: the elite universities; his Hyde Park milieu (including his not-to-be-mentioned friends, William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn); the church he attended for two decades, ringing with sermons more virulently antiAmerican than anything heard in today’s full-throated uprising of the Arab Street. It is the liberal elites who revile the American colossus and devoutly wish to see it cut down to size. Leading from behind — diminishing America’s global standing and assertiveness — is a reaction to their view of America, not the world’s.

Other presidents take anti-Americanism as a given, rather than evidence of American malignancy, believing — as do most Americans — in the rightness of our cause and the nobility of our intentions. Obama thinks anti-Americanism is a verdict on America’s fitness for leadership. I would suggest that “leading from behind” is a verdict on Obama’s fitness for leadership.

Leading from behind is not leading. It is abdicating. It is also an oxymoron. Yet a sympathetic journalist, channeling an Obama adviser, elevates it to a doctrine.

The president is no doubt flattered. The rest of us are merely stunned.

— Charles Krauthammer is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

‘Birther’ debate unworthy of America When President Obama told the media why he had released his long-form Hawaiian birth certificate, all I could think of was Pakistan.

Yes, Pakistan, where no conspiracy theory is too bizarre and you’ll hear that 9/11 was a Zionist plot — and Osama bin Laden a U.S. agent. Ordinary Pakistanis turn to conspiracy theories to explain the overwhelming problems that face them.

But those unhinged theories distract them and their leaders from dealing with real problems that could do them in.

So I felt a painful twinge of recognition when Obama said he’d decided on the release because the birther flap was eclipsing the debate over the budget.

“We do not have time for this kind of silliness,” Obama told the press. He is right.

Yet I fear the culture of conspiracy is getting a grip on a nervous American nation in a manner all too reminiscent of Pakistan, with the same poisonous effect on our pol-

“

I hope Obama’s gesture will jolt them. I hope NBC will dump Trump, and we won’t become the land of the fearful …” itics. And just as in Pakistan, these theories are cynically fueled by politicians who think they will garner votes.

It’s much easier to understand why conspiracy theories run wild in Islamabad — or the Middle East for that matter — than it is in America. In Pakistan and the Arab world, governments and militaries operate in secret, with few institutional checks and balances.

So people with little control over their lives turn to conspiracy theories to give their world some shape. In the Arab countries, these theories are promoted by media that are mostly state-controlled. In Pakistan, where the media are nominally free, it is often ready to print outrageous stories without checking facts.

America’s checkered history in Pakistan provides some grist for these theories, which are then wildly embroidered.

Officials often plant tales about nefarious American behavior in order to deflect pressure on themselves.

Thus we get stories that the United States is planning to seize Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal, or has 9,000 Blackwater

security men roaming Pakistan and setting off bombs that are blamed on the Taliban. Then there’s the theory that bin Laden is Jewish; or that the London transport bombings were orchestrated by the CIA to drum up support for America’s war on terrorism; or that India’s intelligence agency carried out the 2008 attacks in Mumbai so it could blame Pakistan.

You get the drift.

So it’s easy to see how the gullible in Pakistan are manipulated in a fashion that makes it impossible for that country to deal with its most pressing issues. But why is this happening here?

The birther business is a sad symbol of the irrational thinking that has seeped into our public discourse. We can blame it on the times, or the bad economy, or on the power of talk radio and the irresponsible side of the Internet. But conspiracy culture is distorting our political debate.

In America, we have a free press and dogged reporters, so we had plenty of proof that Obama was born in Hawaii.

Senior public officials there said repeatedly that the long-form birth certificate is no longer used, and that the computer-generated form is their official birth certificate.

Dr. Chyome Fukino, a former state health director in Hawaii and lifelong Republican, told CNN that Obama “was absolutely born here in Hawaii.” She had seen Obama’s long-form document.

So there should have been no need for the president of the United States to produce a document no longer considered official in order to satisfy birthers.

But who cares about facts?

Not Donald Trump, the birther-booster extraordinaire, who informed CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Monday: “I’ve been told very recently that the birth certificate

is missing ... or doesn’t exist.” When Cooper pressed for Trump’s source, this wouldbe president said he couldn’t reveal it.

Has he revealed it now that the issue is moot? Of course not. He knows that many birthers will claim the document the White House obtained is a fake, and he wants to profit from their blindness.

Indeed, the Conservative Action Alerts website has already put out this message: “We still need to ask the same questions we have been — where’s the birth certificate?” And Trump had the chutzpah to say he’s “proud” of his role in this farce.

So the birther issue will roll on, promoted by the crazies and political cynics.

Fringe groups once on America’s margin have taken center stage in Republican politics. This week Public Policy Polling found that 51 percent of Republicans who plan to vote in the 2012 primaries believe Obama wasn’t born in the U.S.A. I hope Obama’s gesture will jolt them.

I hope NBC will dump Trump, and we won’t become the land of the fearful, where Americans forsake facts for the more comfortable pap provided by political manipulators.

If that kind of mind-set takes hold of large segments of the population, in a country where information IS available, we are heading for deep trouble. That is the mind-set that embraces the worst kind of demagogues. I’ve seen it abroad.

I can’t believe the Republican Party would choose Trump as its nominee, and I still doubt a majority would elect him or another such con man. Such folly would prove the United States had joined the sad community of nations where the wildest theories are cherished as truth.

Voting issues To the editor: No one should be surprised that the new Kansas law that requires “proof of citizenship” to register to vote will be a big factor in limiting the number of registered voters in our state. It is unfortunate that the issues which were so clearly laid out in your April 25 article weren’t delineated months ago. For example, why were potential costs to married women and identify theft previously ignored?

But what is still missing is the analysis of why such a law would be so desirous of the radical right. That analysis is clear and unforgiving: Every study of U.S. election results indicates that the smaller the voter turnout, the more likely it is that radical right candidates and radical right causes will be voted into office or enacted. That is the kind of information that voters need in order to be able to influence their elected off icials to defeat such measures. Has anybody talked to the ACLU yet?

K-10 thoughts To the editor: When I travel K-10 I notice that the majority of drivers don’t use turn signals when changing lanes. Turn signals are very helpful to me and alert me to changes on the roadway. Many vehicles have darkly tinted windows, which makes it difficult to view “body language” of the person in the vehicle I’m following.

Therefore, turn signals are my most visible sign of another driver’s intent.

Vehicles which pass me often return to my lane very close to my vehicle, which causes me to put on my brakes to quickly decelerate. One traffic safety person advised that it is safe to return to the right-hand lane in front of another vehicle — after you can see both front tires of that vehicle on the pavement in your rearview mirror. This is the standard I use, and it works well.

I wonder how much it would cost to install those temporary concrete barriers that I often see on the turnpike when roadwork is being done? Maybe they could be installed on the K-10 median for the short-term without a big expense to the state. They wouldn’t need to be installed end-to-end, necessarily. A break in between barriers, less than the width of a car might be sufficient to prevent crossover accidents.

Teen’s sagging pants provoke police scuffle DERBY (AP) — A Kansas high school student says school resource officers hit him with a Taser and broke his arm after he refused to pull up his pants.

The Wichita Eagle reports that Derby police say 17-yearold Jonathan Villarreal resisted and swore at the officers on Wednesday near Derby High School after being told to pull up his sagging pants.

Villarreal says he refused to pull up his jeans because school was out. He claims officers broke his arm and gave him a black eye during the scuffle, and used a Taser because he kept trying to get up.

Derby Police Chief Robert Lee says Villarreal swore at the officers and refused to go back inside the school. He says the Taser was used after Villarreal became aggressive. Police are investigating.

Webb locked in spring QB battle — again

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

At last year’s annual spring football game, Kansas University quarterback Jordan Webb was in the middle of a battle for the starting QB position and took the field hoping to make the kinds of plays that would wow the coaches and inspire them to pick him as their starter.

A year later, Webb enters today’s spring game — 1:30 p.m. at Memorial Stadium — with a much different mind-set even though he’s in a similar position.

“Really, you just have to treat (the spring game) like it’s a practice and try not to press for things,” said Webb, who again f inds himself competing for KU’s starting quarterback job.

“It’s the f irst Webb time you are in front of a bigger crowd, so you are gonna want to make plays, but you just gotta stay within the system and work the offense.”

According to teammates, that has been a strength of Webb’s this spring. Last year, as a roughedged, red-shirt freshman getting his first feel for Saturdays, Webb often found that he knew the right play but pressed too hard and made the wrong one.

The gambler attitude resulted in a roller-coaster season in which Webb threw for 1,195 yards and seven touchdowns but also eight interceptions in nine games.

Asked recently which Jayhawks had stood out this spring, KU receiver Christian Matthews did not hesitate.

“Probably Jordan Webb,” Matthews said. “He’s growing up, and he’s getting the ball to us. We don’t see many bad balls from him. He knows what he’s doing, he’s not trying to force anything, and he’s just making the good plays. (Offensive coordinator) Coach (Chuck) Long, I mean, you just need a year with him.”

Webb, now a third-year sophomore, admitted that he was much more relaxed on the practice fields this spring compared to the way he felt a year ago. He also agreed with Matthews and said learning to stay within the

system was a major focus of his this offseason.

“My grading in the scrimmages and throughout practice has really shown that,” Webb said. “It has a lot to do with (being comfortable) in the offense and just knowing what the coaches want and just trying to execute that.”

KU coach Turner Gill has seen that pay off for both Webb and senior Quinn Mecham.

“When you have experience, you are going to be a lot more

KANSAS CITY’S JARROD DYSON (1) IS CONGRATULATED by hitting coach Kevin Seitzer, left, and Alex Gordon (4) after scoring on a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning. The Royals tripped the Twins, 4-3, on Friday in Kansas City, Mo.

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Royals snap six-game skid, 4-3 KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Jarrod Dyson made the Kansas City Royals’ roster out of spring training because of his speed.

That paid off Friday night, with Dyson scoring the winning run on a sacrifice fly shortstop Alexi Casilla caught in shallow left field with his back to the infield in the eighth inning as the Royals rallied for a 4-3 victory over the Minnesota Twins to snap a six-game losing streak.

Kansas City trailed, 3-2, in the bottom of the eighth when Wilson Betemit doubled with one out and moved to third on Kila Ka’ahiue’s single. Dyson ran for Ka’ahiue and stole second on the first pitch as catche r D rew B ute ra ’s t h row s k i p p e d i n to ce n te r f i e l d , allowing Betemit to score the tying run and Dyson to advance to third.

Dyson then came home on Alcides Escobar’s pop up, scoring easily.

“I got a chance to showcase some speed,” Dyson said. “When I saw it go up, I thought it was going to fall in. I saw Casilla running hard, but he would have to set his feet to make a strong throw, but I felt by then I’d be at top speed.”

Dyson said “that’s a first” for him, scoring on a sacrifice fly to shortstop.

“All the years I’ve coached, managed and played in the big leagues, I’ve seen it one other time, and that was Rafael Furcal,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

“Dyson read it, tagged and was at full speed in his first step. He was really scooting.

“Dyson has that type of ability, that type of speed that he can win a ball game. He helps us win games in situations late in the game when we need to tie it or we need to win it. That’s proof of that again. You’re not going to see that very often.”

PRAY AND PLAY PLAYERS RECRUIT PERRY ELLIS (RIGHT) MUSCLES UP FOR A LAYUP and two points. Ellis scored 19 points in a losing effort against Dream Vision on Friday at the Jayhawk Invitational at Coffin Complex.

Perry Ellis stood in a corner of Haskell’s Coffin Complex, signing autographs and conducting interviews after scoring 19 points in Wichita Pray and Play Players’ 69-56 loss to Dream Vision in Friday night’s marquee pool-play game of the 2011 Jayhawk Invitational.

“I’ve gotten used to it over the years. I was nervous about it my freshman year, but now, I mean, I know it’s going to happen, so I just deal with it,” the 6-foot-8, 220-pound Wichita Heights junior forward said of all the attention.

Ellis — he hit seven of 12 shots and four of six free throws while grabbing five rebounds — definitely felt the love of a crowd of about 200 fans. Those local fans, of course, hope Rivals.com’s No. 19-rated player in the Class of 2012 chooses KU over Kansas State, Kentucky, Memphis, Oklahoma and Wichita State.

“It’s always a good environment coming here, to have all the fans watching you and cheering you on. It’s pretty fun,” said Ellis, who said he plans to make five official visits this fall before choosing a college.

“It’s exciting,” he added of recruiting heating up as his senior year of high school nears.

Ellis — he has led Heights to three straight state titles and a Class 6A-record 44 consecutive victories — said the only negative Friday was the fact his team lost to a star-studded Dream Vision squad.

Shabazz Muhammad, a 6-5 junior combo guard from Las Vegas’ Bishop Gorman High who is ranked No. 3 in the Class of 2012, scored 17 points off 6-of-15 shooting and grabbed f ive boards.

NFL DRAFT

Chiefs pick intriguing LB in third round

By Doug Tucker Associated Press Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY , M O. — A gifted linebacker who plummeted from first-round projection to thirdround reality and insists he doesn’t even follow the NFL could be Kansas City’s most intriguing draft pick of 2011.

Justin Houston, a pass-rushing dynamo at Georgia, is also one of the biggest gambles the normal-

ly conservative Scott Pioli ever took.

Many evaluators had pegged Houston as a late first-round pick until reports citing unnamed sources indicated there may have been a problem with a drug test during the NFL combine in February. But there he sat when the Chiefs picked 70th in the third round Friday night, and they decided to roll the dice.

K.C. also took Rodney Hudson (center, Florida State) in the second round and Allen Bailey (defensive end, Miami) in the third round on Friday.

“I was honest with them, told them it was a mistake I made and I’m putting it behind me,” said the 6-foot-2, 285-pound Houston.

“I think they trusted me, and they took a chance, and I’m going to make them proud for taking that chance.”

The Statesboro, Ga., native had 10 sacks and 18.5 tackles for loss last year.

If Houston plays with the talent and drive that once made him a top prospect, the Chiefs will have the complement to passrush specialist Tamba Hali they so desperately need.

“There’s certainly risk here,” Pioli said. “He had a situation that is why he was available when he was available.”

K.C. BOUND Chiefs draft picks, so far: 1 (26).

Jonathan Baldwin, WR, Pittsburgh 2 (55). Rodney Hudson, C, Florida St. 3 (70). Justin Houston, LB, Georgia 3 (86). Allen Bailey, DE, Miami (Fla).

COMMENTARY

Hinrich injury casts pall on series

Ump tweet gets Guillen suspended by MLB CHICAGO — Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen has been suspended for two games for arguing balls and strikes and then complaining about his ejection on Twitter during a game.

Major League Baseball announced Friday that Guillen also had been fined an undisclosed amount. It was the first time baseball has penalized a player, coach or manager for use of the social networking site during a game.

Guillen was tossed Wednesday night for arguing with plate umpire Todd Tichenor in the first inning of Chicago’s game against the New York Yankees. The combustible manager then went on Twitter to say the ejection was pathetic.

Guillen was expected to miss home games Friday Guillen and today against Baltimore.

It’s not the first time Twitter has gotten a member of the Guillen family in trouble with the White Sox. Guillen’s son, Oney, left the team’s scouting department after posts criticized the front office in spring training 2010.

The episode led to season-long friction between Guillen and general manager Ken Williams that had been patched up.

By K.C. Johnson Chicago Tribune

Jamal Crawford answered his phone before one ring had completed.

“How crazy is this going to be?” Crawford asked both excitedly and rhetorically.

The affable guard was referring to his Hawks’ upcoming Eastern Conference semifinal series against the Bulls, which would have been a lot more fun if Kirk Hinrich hadn’t suffered a “significant strain” to his right hamstring late in the Hawks’ closeout victory over the Magic.

Hinrich, who told one source he felt his hamstring “pop,” is doubtful for the whole series.

“We need to have him,” Crawford said before news of his status broke.

Indeed, Hinrich represented a crucial element — particularly at the defensive end — for the Hawks, who haven’t shown much trust in backup Jeff Teague. Moreover, Crawford and Hinrich, both popular former Bulls, played well in the Magic series.

Crawford, last season’s NBA Sixth Man of the Year, averaged a team-high 20.5 points in 29.8 minutes and shot 45.9 percent from three-point range.

“I played as well as I have in any playoff series,” said Crawford, who bowed out in the second round last season after spending his first nine seasons on non-qualifying teams. “I was more relaxed and confident. Last year, I didn’t know what to expect.

“That’s why we have confidence against Chicago, who we have a lot of respect Hinrich is one for. I think it will be of the top an evenly matched series. I don’t think defenders in the there will be league. He has blowouts either the ability to way. We have athletes and a good guard multiple coaching staff. So positions and do they. It’s going to brings a lot of be a lot of fun.” toughness.”

Crawford spent his first four seasons with the Bulls before leaving in a — Bulls coach sign-and-trade transaction with the Tom Thibodeau Knicks in 2004. He has been gone so long he won’t face any former teammates in this series, but the same can’t be said for Hinrich.

Traded to the Wizards to clear salarycap space on draft night last June, Hinrich endured a losing season with Washington before landing with the Hawks near the trade deadline. Now Hinrich, who spent his first seven seasons with the Bulls, including six with Luol Deng, faces more adversity.

“We love Kirk, but we know he’s trying to beat us,” Deng said before the injury’s severity was known. “I have a lot of respect for Kirk. I came in at 19 with him as my point guard. All those guys, Kirk, (Andres Nocioni), the way they played the game rubbed off on me. They always played hard.”

That quality, plus his defensive prowess, make it easy to call Hinrich a player Tom Thibodeau would have loved to coach.

“I have a lot of respect for him because of the way he competes,” Thibodeau said.

“He was in here (the Berto Center) a lot this summer, you could see his professionalism. That’s the way of the league. Sometimes you get the opportunity, and sometimes you don’t.

“Hinrich is one of the top defenders in the league. He has the ability to guard multiple positions and brings a lot of toughness.

“Crawford is such a big part of their team also. Usually at the end of the game, you’re looking at Hinrich, Crawford and Joe Johnson on the perimeter.”

No longer, thanks to the injury. Former teammate Joakim Noah, who used to call Hinrich “Kirky Worky,” wished he could play, calling him “a helluva competitor.” Crawford wished Hinrich could too.

“We had aspirations playing as well as the Bulls are when I was there,” Crawford said. “We’re happy for them, but not too happy since we want to beat them.”

BASEBALL Braves’ coach disciplined ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves placed pitching coach Roger McDowell on administrative leave Friday while they investigate allegations he made homophobic comments and crude gestures toward fans before a game in San Francisco last weekend.

McDowell also is accused of using a baseball bat to threaten a fan objecting to his actions.

The de facto suspension of McDowell came hours after the team announced it was looking into the arrest Thursday night of starting pitcher Derek Lowe on drunken-driving charges, a double dose of trouble for a team that has always prided itself on avoiding offthe-field incidents.

The altercation at AT&T Park in San Francisco took place Saturday during pregame batting practice. Justin Quinn was in the stands with his wife and 9-year-old twin daughters when he noticed McDowell hectoring three men and asking them, “Are you guys a homo couple or a threesome?”

After the coach made crude sexual gestures with his hips and a bat, Quinn said he shouted, “Hey there are kids out here.”

According to Quinn, McDowell said kids don’t belong at a baseball park, picked up a bat, walked up to Quinn and asked him, “How much are your teeth worth?”

Lowe apologized Friday after being charged with drunken driving, saying he hoped his arrest would not be a distraction to the team.

Gordy Wright, a spokesman for the Georgia State Patrol, said a trooper stopped Lowe’s vehicle about 10 p.m. Thursday after it was spotted racing another car down an Atlanta street. The trooper detected an odor of alcohol and administered a field sobriety test, which resulted in Lowe’s arrest.

The 37-year-old right-hander was charged with DUI, reckless driving and improper lane change, Wright said.

“

The 23-year-old right-hander was arrested

by Cincinnati police on April 18 after trying to leave Macy’s with six T-shirts having a total value of $59.88. He said before the Reds’ game Friday against Florida that he was trying to exchange T-shirts he’d purchased on April 2 that were too small.

Instead of seeking help from a clerk, he simply left the already-purchased T-shirts, picked up new ones and tried to leave the store.

Security personnel stopped him and called the police.

LHS junior breaks track record J-W Staff Reports

TOPEKA — The oldest trackand-field record on the books at Lawrence High is no longer.

LHS junior Blake Hocking put the shot 62 feet, 9 inches to win the title Friday at the Topeka Seaman Relays and erase the 59-year-old school record.

“As soon as it left his hand, I knew it, he knew it, his father knew it,” Lawrence coach Jack Hood said. “We just started whooping.”

The previous record-holder was Bill Nieder, who went

a bruising 6-11 center from Edison High in Fresno, Calif., chipped in 13 points off 6-of-11 shooting with 10 rebounds.

“It was a great game. There were a lot of good players in this game,” said Muhammad.

“Perry Ellis is a good player.

We went against him last year.

“We have a good team this year. Nobody hogs the ball.

Everybody is involved. Last year I was averaging about 30 (ppg). This year I don’t have to carry that much of a load. I can get my teammates involved and pass and get rebounds.”

Muhammad — he weighs a solid 215 after playing in the Invitational at 180 last year — said recruiting “is pretty heavy right now. I’ve been talking to a lot of coaches:

comfortable,” Gill said. “You know what the expectations of the coaches are, and that makes the offense a lot easier to execute.”

Though he expects the competition at quarterback to continue into August — when freshmen QBs Brock Berglund and Michael Cummings join the squad — Webb has been pleased with his performance this spring and hopes today will give him a chance to show people how much he has improved.

While many eyes will be on Webb and the other quarterbacks today, there also will be plenty of other areas to keep an eye on. Here’s a quick look:

on to star at Kansas University and was a two-time Olympian and one-time gold medalist.

As a senior at LHS, Nieder became the first prep ever to put the 12-pound shot 60 feet.

His school record of 60-9 3/8 stood since 1952 — until Hocking, who had flirted with the mark several times this season, bettered it.

“His mother, his father and me … we were all pretty pleased,” Hood said. “I gave him a hug for about f ive minutes that held the event up.”

Hocking is the top-ranked thrower in the state. A show of his dominance in the event Friday: The runner-up toss was more than 10 feet shorter, 52-7.

Lawrence’s other winner Friday was TaMiya Green, who won the girls 300 hurdles in 47.62 seconds.

Free State had two individual winners: Lynn Robinson (800-meter run, 2:25.32) and Alexa Harmon-Thomas (long jump, 5-6).

The Lions will travel Friday to the Shawnee Mission North Relays.

Kansas, Duke, North Carolina, Arizona, UCLA, some other schools. It’s pretty hectic going through the process.

I’m blessed to have an opportunity to do it.”

Asked about KU’s chances, Muhammad said: “They are really realistic. This is my second year coming down here.

It’s really fun. I’ve talked to a lot of players — Elijah (Johnson), Tyshawn (Taylor), the (Morris) twins. Bill Self is a great coach. I could see myself being here.”

Of Lawrence, he noted: “I like it. It’s really green. I didn’t know it was that green. I like being out here.”

defense that included the 6-11 Upshaw, who, by the way, said KU was on his still-growing list of schools.

Ellis, who some say resembles former Duke player Shane Battier, also had a pair of inside slams off feeds, one from Free State’s Evan Manning.

Muhammad, a left-handed shooter, showed a nice touch on a 12-foot jumper and standstill three. He also drove the baseline for a conventional three-point play. Admittedly his shot was off, yet he still managed his 17 points.

Dream Vision will play pool play games at 10:20 a.m. today at the Lawrence High main gym and 1:50 p.m. today at the LHS auxiliary gym. Pray and Play Players will play at 9:10 a.m. today at Lawrence High’s main gym and 3 p.m. at Central Junior High. The 17and-under finals are 2:15 p.m.

Also, the two teams will split up on the two sidelines, with the offensive coaches going on the blue sideline and the defensive coaches staying on the white sideline.

Though the offensive lines will stay consistent on each team, Gill said all of the other position groups would be interchangeable.

“The reason for the format we have ... we really don’t have quite a few of the defensive tackles,” Gill said. “We’ve only got four guys going. We’ve got to be able to give them a break.”

Newcomers galore At the top of the list of newcomers to watch for is Blue Springs, Mo., running back Darrian Miller. Miller, who wears No. 3, has had a solid spring and will look to keep that going in front of fans at Memorial Stadium.

KU senior linebacker Steven Johnson said Friday that Miller “knows how to slip through little creases” and admitted he’d missed a few tackles on the freshman in the spring.

“After practice, I stare at him,” Johnson said with a smile. “He knows that I hate it, but I’ve gotten a few on him, too. It’s a battle between me and him. But he’s a great player, and I’m looking forward to seeing what he can do in the spring game.”

Though Miller will be the easiest of the newcomers to spot, there are a few others who warrant attention. Also keep an eye out for linebacker Malcom Walker (44), defensive tackle Pat Lewandowski (91), offensive lineman Dylan Admire (75), defensive end Julius Green (99) and wide receiver Connor Embree (89).

NATIONAL LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Howard, Phillies pound New York The Associated Press

Phillies 10, Mets 3 P H I L A D E L P H I A — Ryan Howard hit two homers, including a grand slam, and drove in six runs to back rookie fill-in Vance Worley and lead Philadelphia on Friday.

Howard launched a two-run shot into the second deck in right field off starter Mike Pelfrey in the fourth inning to give Philadelphia a 2-0 lead. After making contact, Howard dropped his bat and stared in admiration for a couple of seconds at the 427-foot drive before trotting around the bases.

Marquis (3-0) struck out seven and walked none in his fourth major-league shutout and first since 2009 with Colorado. Always a dangerous hitter, he helped his own cause with an RBI single and is batting .385.

On-again, off-again lockout is on again

By Bob Glauber Newsday

Less than 12 hours after NFL teams reopened their doors to players in response to a preliminary injunction that lifted the 6-week-old lockout, those doors are closed once again.

A three-judge panel from the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis on Friday night granted the NFL’s request for a temporary stay of an injunction by Federal District Court Judge Susan Nelson that lifted the lockout Monday.

NFL vice president of communications Greg Aiello said that teams “have been told that the prior lockout rules are reinstated effective immediately.”

The appellate court did not decide whether to keep the stay in place while it considers whether to overturn Nelson’s injunction. That will be a separate decision that could come as soon as next week.

If the appeals court doesn’t extend the stay, the league will resume operations. The league had been expected to

Chiefs owner Hunt says resolution to labor dispute in distant future KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt does not foresee labor peace coming soon to the NFL. “I do believe there is a compromise that gets a deal done,” said Hunt, who was part of the owners’ negotiation team. “But at this point I don’t think the sides are ready to discuss that. And it takes both parties. That’s the key. If you’ve got one side that wants to make a deal and the other one doesn’t, open the free-agency signing period and allow trades of players in the coming days, perhaps as early as Monday.

But Friday night’s decision puts those plans on hold.

Two of the three judges from the Eighth Circuit voted to grant the stay. A third, Kermit Bye, dissented.

“The purpose of this administrative stay is to give the court sufficient opportunity to consider the merits of

then it doesn’t matter how close we might have been when we were (in negotiations) in Washington. It just isn’t going to happen.”

Hunt spoke Friday shortly before a federal appeals court in St. Louis granted the owners’ request to put on hold temporarily the district court ruling of Monday, which had lifted the 45-day lockout and allowed players back inside team facilities.

Hunt said he believes all 32 teams are being hurt by

the dispute, but declined to say how far apart the two sides are.

“I can’t disclose what happened on those mediations because, in one case, they were court-ordered and what takes place there is supposed to stay confidential,” he said. “There are three or four key issues. But I think the most important one is the salary cap and what’s the right level for the salary cap.”

Hunt, whose late father,

the motion for a stay pending appeal,” the court’s decision read.

In dissenting, Bye said he found no need for the stay because the league failed to show why this represented an “emergency situation.”

“Because I expect our court will be resolving the actual request for a stay in short order, I see little practical need for granting an emergency temporary stay in this

non-emergency situation,” Bye wrote.

Bye also said in his dissent that the NFL did not demonstrate that there would be “irreparable harm” by not granting the stay.

Attorney Jim Quinn, who is representing 10 players suing the NFL on antitrust grounds, called the ruling “totally expected and routine. The only thing unexpected was that Judge Bye was so reluc-

Lamar, founded the Chiefs and the American Football League, believes there will be a 2011 season but is not as confident that training camps will open on time in late July.

“That’s harder to predict.

The league does have some contingencies built in that would allow the schedule to be adjusted so that we could hopefully get a full schedule in,” Hunt said. “But I can’t predict whether we’re going to get to camp on time or not.” tant to give them even a short stay because (the NFL) can’t show any injury from having to comply with the nation’s antitrust laws like everyone else in America.”

NFL fans appear to be growing frustrated with the back-and-forth nature of the labor dispute, and showed that displeasure during the first two nights of the draft.

When commissioner Roger Goodell greeted fans at Radio

City Music Hall on Thursday night, he was booed loudly.

Each time he walked to the podium to announce the firstround picks, he was booed again.

And Friday night, there were more boos.

“It’s the fans’ frustration,” Goodell said Friday morning on a conference call with Jets fans. “I hear it directly from them. They want football. I want football. That was a clear indication of me not being able to solve that (labor situation). That’s my responsibility, and I accept it.”

Players began returning to team facilities early Friday to work out, get playbooks and meet with coaches. Those who wanted to work out were required to provide proof of their own medical insurance, given that the NFL no longer is providing insurance after the NFL Players Association’s decision to decertify as a union last month.

Jets receiver Braylon Edwards, scheduled to become a free agent, put it simply on Twitter: “Looks like we’re unemployed again.”

Lockout news overshadows Day 2 of draft NEW YORK (AP) — Even as Ryan Williams was bear-hugging Roger Goodell at the draft Friday, the NFL was getting ready to shut down all other business.

The Virginia Tech running back waited in a side room at Radio City Music Hall for 37 picks. Arizona finally called his name at the sixth spot in the second round — moments before the league was granted a temporary stay against an injunction that blocked its lockout of players.

Hours later, the NFL sent a memo to the 32 clubs that “the prior lockout rules are reinstated effective immediately.”

The teary-eyed Williams embraced the commissioner

and former Cardinals cornerback Aenaes Williams, who made the announcement. Ryan Williams’ family and friends followed him on stage — about two dozen people in all — surrounding him and Goodell in a sea of celebratory supporters.

They had no idea Williams would not be allowed to report to the team for anything but a news conference with the lockout reinstated while a court in St. Louis hears the league’s appeal.

“When I went to visit, they told me I would not slip past pick No. 38,” Williams said, his eyes still wet. “And I respect them 100 percent.

Williams left school with two years of eligibility

remaining. He rushed for 1,655 yards and 21 touchdowns, averaging 5.6 yards per carry, as a redshirt freshman in 2009, but was limited by a hamstring injury last season.

“The passion that I play with separates myself from a lot of people on the job,” he said.

Williams said the prolonged stay wasn’t that bad for his family and friends because “they got another day out in New York.”

Earlier, the fans’ mood over the labor dispute hadn’t changed as, for the second straight night, they showered Goodell with boos. And that was well before the league went back into lockout mode.

Two high-profile quarterbacks preceded Williams and his entourage to the stage.

Cincinnati selected TCU QB Andy Dalton. The Bengals’ incumbent, Carson Palmer, has demanded a trade, and the addition of Dalton could pave the way for Palmer’s exit — whenever the league allows it.

“We spent a lot of time on this, no question,” Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said. “It’s a big, important, important pick, important piece.”

San Francisco immediately traded up with Denver to get the next spot and select the next QB: Colin Kaepernick of Nevada. He also was an outstanding baseball prospect, a former pitcher with a powerful arm.

Kaepernick was watching the draft with his family in Turlock, Calif., about a twohour drive from the 49ers’ practice facility in Santa Clara. He was so excited he was contemplating making the drive immediately — even though he might be turned away when he gets there.

“That just makes it that much easier for my family, friends to come and see me,” Kaepernick said. “I know everybody in Reno was hoping I went to the 49ers as well. For me, it was the perfect pick.”

Patriots coach Bill Belichick pulled a surprise to begin the round: He stood still.

Given their willingness to trade down every year, the

Patriots heard from several teams interested in that slot before taking Virginia cornerback Ras-I Dowling. Hall of Fame linebacker Andre Tippett announced the pick.

The final pick of the second round was Kentucky’s Randall Cobb, an All-American all-purpose player projected as a receiver in the pros, who went to Green Bay. Twelve players from the Atlantic Coast Conference went in the second round.

Still waiting to be chosen were All-American linebacker Greg Jones of Michigan State, and Boston College linebacker Mark Herzlich, who is making a comeback from cancer.

NBA PLAYOFFS

Grizzlies finish off Spurs

By Teresa M. Walker Associated Press Sports Writer

MEMPHIS, TENN. — Zach Randolph had 31 points and 11 rebounds, and the Memphis Grizzlies advanced to their f irst Western Conference semifinals and made NBA history in knocking off the topseeded San Antonio Spurs, 99-91, on Friday night.

Memphis had been the franchise best known for empty seats and the unenviable NBA mark for playoff futility at 0-12 after being swept in its first three appearances. This time, a third straight sellout crowd cheered every bucket with a couple of signs begging the Grizzlies to “Finish Them” in a town in desperate need of a hero.

The Grizzlies needed 10 seasons, but they have become just that as only the second No. 8 seed to upset a No. 1 seed since the NBA expanded the opening series to a best-of-seven.

They will play Oklahoma City in the semifinals.

Marc Gasol had 12 points and 13 rebounds for Memphis.

Tony Allen added 11 points, and rookie Greivis Vasquez had 11 off the bench playing 24 minutes with Mike Conley in foul trouble most of the game.

Tony Parker led San Antonio with 23 points, Manu Ginobili had 16, Tim Duncan 12 and Antonio McDyess 10.

The Spurs led only twice at 2-0 and again at 80-79 when McDyess hit a 15-footer with 4:41 left.

BOX SCORE SAN ANTONIO (91) Jefferson 0-2 0-0 0, Duncan 5-13 2-2 12, McDyess 4-7 2-2 10, Parker 10-17 3-4 23, Ginobili 6-14 2-2 16, Hill 3-10 0-0 6, Neal 3-12 2-2 8, Splitter 2-4 0-0 4, Bonner 3-4 1-2 9, Green 1-2 0-0 3. Totals 37-85 12-14 91.

MEMPHIS (99) Young 4-6 0-0 9, Randolph 12-22 7-8 31, Gasol 6-9 0-2 12, Conley 3-9 3-4 9, Allen 4-9 3-4 11, Vasquez 4-8 3-4 11, Battier 1-1 0-0 2, Mayo 1-3 46 6, Arthur 3-6 2-2 8, Haddadi 0-0 0-0 0. Totals 3873 22-30 99.

San Antonio 16 27 23 25 — 91 Memphis 24 22 24 29 — 99 3-Point Goals—San Antonio 5-22 (Bonner 2-3, Ginobili 2-8, Green 1-2, Jefferson 0-1, Parker 0-1, Hill 0-2, Neal 0-5), Memphis 1-9 (Young 1-1, Allen 0-1, Conley 0-2, Randolph 0-2, Vasquez 0-3).

Fouled Out—Hill. Rebounds—San Antonio 44 (Duncan 10), Memphis 49 (Gasol 13). Assists— San Antonio 15 (Parker 4), Memphis 12 (Conley 3). Total Fouls—San Antonio 26, Memphis 18. A— 18,119 (18,119).

That’s when Randolph, the man cast off and unwanted when he arrived in Memphis in the summer of 2009, took over and scored 17 of the Grizzlies’ 29 points in the fourth quarter.

He scored 10 of the next 14 for Memphis, with his hook putting Memphis ahead to stay at 81-80. Conley added a jumper, then Randolph hit a fallaway jumper, two free throws and another fallaway jumper for an 89-82 lead with 1:55 left. Randolph went to the bench to a huge cheer with 3.4 seconds left.

The Spurs, winners of 61 games in the regular season and the dynasty with four NBA titles with Duncan, turned the ball over three straight times while Randolph was putting away this franchise’s biggest win. One desperate pass from Ginobili went right off Parker’s hands.

Ginobili also had a big shot

How former Jayhawks fared Darrell Arthur, Memphis Pts: 8. FGs: 3-6. FTs: 2-2.

Xavier Henry, Memphis Did not play (knee injury)

to help the Spurs stay alive.

This game, he had an even more amazing shot, beating the buzzer at the end of the third quarter as he tossed up the ball from half court off balance and trying to beat the clock. He had been three of 10 from the floor before that lucky attempt pulled the Spurs to 70-66.

It just wasn’t enough for a team that couldn’t beat the Grizzlies in Memphis during the regular season and or the postseason. The Spurs ended this season dropping nine of the last 10 on the road and 16 of the last 19 in the postseason away from San Antonio.

Parker opened the game with a pair of free throws, then the Grizzlies took over. Allen scored on a floater in the lane, Randolph tipped in the ball as the start of 10 straight points by the Grizzlies. That prompted Spurs coach Gregg Popovich to scream at a referee for a timeout. But Vasquez and Allen scored for a 14-0 spurt before Parker finally answered with a layup.

For Memphis, it was almost as dominant as the third quarter of Game 4 when the Grizzlies outscored the Spurs 30-15.

LAWRENCE PRESBYTERIAN MANOR BOOK CLUB met Feb. 17 in the manorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chapel. From left are guest Diane Bricker and residents Ann Bricker, Audrey Mortensen, Jan Roberts, Dorothy Maxwell, Al Sellen, Jane Sellen, Betty Jo Miller, Phyllis Talmadge and Maggie Carttar; with Mary Lou Warner, center.

WARREN CORMAN, LAWRENCE, LEFT, recently retired his position as Kansas University architect. Here, he visits with presidential historian Richard Norton Smith on Jan. 30 at the Dole Institute. As the first permanent director of the Dole Institute of Politics, Smith worked closely with Corman during the design and construction of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dole Institute facility, which was dedicated in 2003.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;As a religious professional, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your take on vampires as popular figures in entertainment?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x201D;

It is fiction: we should focus on reaching out to our community The Rev. Matt Cox, pastor, EastLake Community Church, 2734 La. (South Junior High): This is an intense theological quandary that has been around for centuries. Certainly any self-described â&#x20AC;&#x153;vampireâ&#x20AC;? will tell you that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve survived many ages of bigotry, but havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t faced a greater challenge than destroying the mod- Cox ern sparkly myths of the tween sensation â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twilight.â&#x20AC;? I mean seriously â&#x20AC;&#x201D; sparkling in the sun?

Perhaps the incomprehensible craze surrounding â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twilightâ&#x20AC;? has inspired the vampire community to forgive the

minor discrepancies of Anne Riceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Interviewâ&#x20AC;? franchise and even the loose-yet-interesting interpretations of the Underworld series.

But seriously, for the same reason some hair dryers still come with a warning that says â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do not use while sleeping,â&#x20AC;? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure this is a type of question that may actually be relevant in some circles because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to unnecessarily overreact on peripheral issues of entertainment. Be they vampires, wizards, elves or whatever other fantasy creature you can think of, we have to remember one thing: itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fiction.

Some of the most renown authors wrote about wild, imaginative races and beings, but were also people of significant faith. For some reason, we have this odd temptation to make figures in enter-

tainment a target for â&#x20AC;&#x153;what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re against.â&#x20AC;? Sure, the quality of certain franchises may vary â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and you should discern what you take in. But to throw out entire genres or fictional figures as a whole is plain ignorant and a giant waste of time.

The more time we spend marching against trivial issues is directly proportionate to the time lost that we could be actively reaching out to our community with the free love God provides and the family He wants everyone to be a part of.

God doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done, how youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown up or what particular f iction you have on your bookshelf. He wants to grow you from right where you are. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Send email to Matt Cox at matt@eastlakelawrence.com.

But Jesus is real! He entered history, proved he is God through his â&#x20AC;&#x153;super-human abilities,â&#x20AC;? shed his blood on the cross and rose again so he could extend an amazing, yet actual offer for â&#x20AC;&#x153;immortalityâ&#x20AC;?: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to lifeâ&#x20AC;? (John 5:24).

Stop living in a fantasy world â&#x20AC;&#x201D; choose the reality revealed in the Bible! Receive immortality by acknowledging your Immortal Creator. If we trust in the super-human, God-man, Jesus Christ, we will experience the reality called heaven that will make even a Stephenie Meyer novel seem boring.

So, why vampires? If we ask the â&#x20AC;&#x153;vampyre subculture,â&#x20AC;? we find that vampire popularity is a symptom of something bigger â&#x20AC;&#x201D; something deeper.

One group from this subculture says actual bloodsuckers are rare (thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a relief).

They say most are simply fascinated with the immortality and super-human abilities vampires have.

If thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true, then vampire popularity is nothing novel.

People have always craved â&#x20AC;&#x153;immortality and superhuman abilities.â&#x20AC;? Our natural tendency, though, is to try to get what we want without going to the only true source of life and goodness: Our Creator (i.e., God).

So, let me recommend a much better obsession than pale, blood-sucking murderers: Jesus Christ. Everyone knows vampires arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t real.

The Rev. Shaun LePage, pastor, Community Bible Church, 906 N. 1464 Road: Why wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vampires be popular â&#x20AC;&#x201D; donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t we all have friends who drink blood?

Arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all popular kids in school murderers?

I know, I know â&#x20AC;&#x201D; modern writers make vampires more likable (i.e., young, beautiful, vegetarian), but still, why LePage vampires? If you met actual blooddrinkers, you would be repulsed by them (even â&#x20AC;&#x153;vegetarianâ&#x20AC;? vampires). If you saw a victim of one of the wannabe Draculas who decided he was an actual vampire, you would vomit.

Sigma Alpha Iota Lawrence Alumnae and Patroness Chapter will host the Kansas University Beta Beta Collegiate Chapter with a rose luncheon at 10 a.m. May 7 at the home of Jackie Shmalberg, 326 Homestead Drive.

Campaign aims to keep kids from smoking Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

Since then they have quit calling, and I haven’t spoken to them in eight months. She recently told my brother that I called and yelled at her, which is completely untrue.

I’ve had a couple of minor health scares recently. I’m tired of trying to please these two utterly self-centered people. I do not feel like extending the “olive branch” yet again, but part of me feels guilty because they are getting older. What would you do? — Fed Up with Family

lifesaving cause. We hope your letter will inspire others Dear Fed Up: Extending an to become involved. Thank olive branch doesn’t mean you on behalf of so many.

The one-hour special “Hollywood at Home” (7 p.m., HGTV) offers a voyeuristic variation on a rather old theme. Oddly enough, none of the homes is located in Hollywood.

“Home” allows the famous to show off their private pads, and more to the point, explain why the homes they have and the stuff they own, reflect their tastes and make a statement about who they “are,” even though, in several cases, at least, the homes were designed and furnished by professionals.

The celebrity homemakers include actor John Leguizamo, who shows off a Greenwich Village brownstone.

Lara Spencer explains how her mid-century Beverly Hills pile shows off her inner Rat Pack. Trace Adkins opens up a Nashville hideaway. Skater Evan Lysacek offers a tour of a Las Vegas bachelor pad, and musician Paul Schaeffer plays a few tunes on the Hammond organ located in his Westchester, N.Y., home, a place he’s turned into a personal shrine to singer James Brown. And lest we forget, journalist Lisa Ling discusses how she, her husband and their architect have gone out of their way to make their new home a palace of eco-friendly consumption and construction — right down to recycled nails and building material.

Watching “Homes,” I was struck by how little television has changed in a half century. Some time back, I reviewed a DVD collection of Edward R. Murrow’s “Person-to-Person” TV shows — a celebrity profile series made possible by the miracle of a “coast-to-coast” cable hook-ups in the mid-1950s. Murrow would interview bold-faced names in their homes while he sat (and chain smoked) in his New York studio. Viewers got to see movie stars in their homes, putting on a show of domesticity for viewers watching from their own living rooms.

While the banal chitchat of the celebrity interview has changed little in 55 years, the opulent abundance of the contemporary celebrity home is hard to ignore. In her segment, interviewer Lara Spencer explains how much time and money was spent to evoke the swagger of 1960s swingers. But while watching Murrow’s “Person-to-Person” interview with Frank Sinatra, I was struck by the austerity of his brand new house. Sinatra went out of his way to show off a built-in “Hi-Fi” record player that would seem antique by today’s standards. He didn’t need stuff to seem cool. He was cool. In another segment, Tony Curtis sneaks away from wife Janet Leigh to show Murrow his prize possession: a rather modest model train set.

It’s naive to think that life was all so simple then, but it’s rather clear that celebrities, and perhaps their audiences, were less obsessed with or defined by their possessions.

Tonight’s other highlights ● NASCAR action (6 p.m., Fox). ● Boxing (7 p.m., CBS). ● A fugitive in search of exoneration on “Chase” (7 p.m., NBC). ● Christian Bale stars in the 2005 comic book adaptation “Batman Begins” (7 p.m., ABC).

handing out cash. If the only thing your father values in this relationship is money, we don’t see the point. Since you apparently still want some type of contact with your father, however, we recommend you take the finances off the table. Call Dad if you like. Send chatty letters and emails with updated family news, and expect nothing in return. You will be an attentive daughter and will have no reason to feel guilty.

Dear Annie: When I was 5, I had to live with my dad and my stepmother, “Joann,” who was physically, emotionally and verbally abusive. After 12 years, I left to live with my biological mom.

My relationship with Joann has been tenuous at best. She didn’t bother to attend my high school or college graduations.

When I married, she not only refused to come, but tried to keep my father away, as well.

The two of them have been absentee grandparents to my sons, their only grandchildren, who are now 15 and 20.

Joann decided to retire early, which meant they wanted money from my siblings Dear Zachar y Morris: and me every month. My husBless you for taking on this band said absolutely not.

Dear Annie: Adults are supposed to set a good example, but I literally can’t go anywhere without seeing adults smoking. That is not surprising because in West Virginia alone, more than one in four adults smoke. It is no wonder that across the country more than 3,500 kids will try their first cigarette today.

Thankfully, states across the U.S., including mine, are enacting laws to deter smoking, including implementing smoke-free facilities, creating tobacco taxes and establishing tobacco-prevention programs.

However, I know tobacco companies are still finding ways to hook kids on smoking.

I am not the kind of guy to just stand by when something bothers me, so for the past few years, I have worked with the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, letting people in my town know that Big Tobacco is still targeting teens. We need to do more to pass state laws protecting kids and to send a message to tobacco companies that we know what they are doing.

One way your readers can get involved is by visiting www.tobaccofreekids.org to learn more about what is being done in their own state and how they can help. — Zachary Morris, age 19, Smithers, W.V.
