PITTSBURG

Comprehensive care offered in convenient, affordable setting

PITTSBURG — A community health center in this small southeastern Kansas town of 20,000 is garnering national attention.

That’s because it provides care for anyone regardless of their income or insurance, and it is doing it successfully. Its growth is off the charts, and it has come during the worst economy in decades.

When it was founded in 2003, the center had 3,300 patients, 6,600 patient visits and a $1.3 million budget.

Last year, it had 21 , 300

patients, 70,300 patient visits and a $9.3 million budget.

It went from 15 full-time employees to 135, the majority of whom hold good-paying jobs like doctors, psychiatrists, dentists and nurse practitioners.

Mark Turnbull, director of economic development in Pittsburg, said the center has helped the economy. More importantly, it has provided critical medical services for SHAWN BRUCE, 21, and Kasey Fowler, 23, of Girard, brought their a very low-income popula- 11-month-old daughter, Anabell Bruce-Fowler, to the clinic tion, especially at a time because she was not feeling good.

Call it Electronic Recycling Wars.

On Saturday, Lawrence residents will have two places to choose from to drop off unused or obsolete electronic items.

Between 500 to 700 vehicles usually arrive at the city’s semi-annual electronic recycling event as resi-

dents unload 25 to 35 tons of computer equipment, televisions and small appliances.

For the past several years, the city had used the Topeka-based processing center Extreme Recycling. Earlier

this year, the city switched to the Kansas City, Mo., nonprofit Surplus Exchange after evaluating proposals from several electronic recycling and refurbishing companies.

But the change won’t keep Extreme Recycling away from Lawrence that day.

While the city will be gathering electronics at Free State High School, Extreme Recycling will be partnering

with Douglas County Bank to provide residents the chance to recycle electronics and shred documents in downtown Lawrence.

Planning a recycling event on the same day as the city’s collection was intentional, said Greg McGrew, the human resources manager for Extreme Recycling.

“For those who have used

TOPEKA — On the surface, it appears the House and Senate have hit a roadblock on coming to an agreement on the budget because of differences of opinion on how much the state should be spending, and where.

While those differences exist, there also are numerous other issues swirling beneath the budget talks that must be dealt with before majorities in the House and Senate will agree on a state spending plan for the fiscal year that starts July 1.

“The final solution has got to be something not only 21 senators will support but 63 Republicans (in the House) can support and get to the governor,” House Speaker Mike O’Neal, RHutchinson, said.

And many of those policy issues are ones pushed by a group of Republicans in the House.

In a news conference in his office, O’Neal outlined what measures he wants the Senate to consider. They include: ● A bill that would make it more difficult for union and labor group political action committees to raise funds from their members. ● Removing the exemption that casinos have to the state law that bans public indoor smoking. ● School bills that would allow districts to use money from special funds, such as at-risk programs and building construction, to pay for operating expenses, and require districts to report their budgets in a uniform manner.

“If we get stonewalled on some of these issues this year, they’re certainly coming back next year,” O’Neal said.

And, he said, next year those issues may not be “as tasty,” comparing the situation to a parent making a child eat for breakfast what the child refused to finish for dinner the night before.

But the Senate has approved a major piece of legislation that has so far sat in committee in the House.

That is the one that would use bonds and state gambling revenues to beef up engineering programs at Kansas University,

KU researchers unlock pieces of autism puzzle

By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

Kansas University researchers are continuing to break new ground in the fight against autism and related disorders.

Much of that research is done on the Lawrence campus and at KU Medical Center under the auspices of KU’s Kansas Center for Autism Research and Training.

All kinds of projects are ongoing, from research into behavioral interventions, to new kinds of medical treatments, to using eye movements as a way to provide an earlier diagnosis.

“With the rising numbers of kids with autism, I think it’s becoming a real red flag to

society,” said Matt Reese, a KUMC researcher and codirector of the K-CART research center.

K-CART, founded in 2008, has provided so-called “discovery grants” to help spark new research.

“The discovery grants are like pilot studies,” said Debra Kamps, director of K-CART. “They direct us to additional research and provide data to support research grant proposals.”

The grants are provided by a combined $1 million contribution from KU and KUMC over five years. Faculty compete for the rela-

tively small grants, typically ranging from $25,000 to $40,000.

They are bringing forth new techniques, like the use of brain-imaging technology to study brain patterns in developing children, Kamps said.

Still, she said, some of the greatest successes have come in intervention work. “We’re working on enabling children to interact with their parents,” she said.

Those successes were echoed in a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, which reported that studies have shown secretin, a hormone thought to be a potential treatment for autism spectrum disorders, has shown no benefit for children with the

disorders.

The article said intensive behavioral treatments involving hours practicing skills with a therapist weekly for years have been effective, along with some medical treatments. Many of those treatments, however, still lack high-quality research to back their effectiveness and can involve unwanted side effects.

Doctors at KUMC are using telemedicine and videoconferencing technology to reach patients in the far corners of the state, in addition to traveling to help people in person, too.

“We’re finding we can just as accurately diagnose over telemedicine,” Reese said.

“And people seem to be just

as satisfied.”

Kathryn Ellerbeck, a developmental-behavioral pediatrician at KUMC, works on autism research and has examined secretin, but is in the very preliminary stages of the research and is now looking to see whether the hormone levels are different in children with the disorders.

“There are not as many specific medical things we can do,” Ellerbeck said. “I wish we had great things that could take care of making these social things better, but we just don’t. Not yet, anyway.”

Heartland clinic adds Medicaid, cuts fees

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

Heartland Community Health Center is offering deeper discounts and accepting Medicaid in an effort to provide more affordable health care in the Lawrence community.

“Our goal is to make health care accessible. I think our previous fee of $30 was too much of a barrier for a lot of folks,” CEO Jon Stewart said.

Now, a patient earning $13,612 annually or less will pay $10 for a standard office visit, instead of $30. For a family of four to qualify, its combined income is $27,937 annually or less for a $10 visit.

Those annual income figures are 125 percent of the federal poverty level.

Other fees are: ● $30 — for a patient earning between $13,613 and $21,780. For a family of four, it’s between $27,938 and $44,700. ● $70 — for a patient earning $27,781 or more. For a family of four, it’s $44,701 or more.

Stewart said the average cost for an office visit elsewhere is $95.

In 2010, Heartland, a safety net clinic located on the east end of the Riverfront Mall, served 1,200 patients. Of those, 68 percent fell below 100 percent of the federal poverty level. Only 4 percent were in the highest income level.

Heartland recently received approval to accept Medicaid as a form of insurance in addition to Medicare and some private insurance.

In April, there were 9,200 people on Medicaid in Douglas County, and there were 300 licensed Medicaid providers. These include physicians, mid-level practitioners, nurse practitioners,

therapists, audiologists, podiatrists, chiropractors and optometrists. Although these providers are licensed, they may not accept Medicaid patients.

“We’ve received a lot of calls in the past from Medicaid patients who didn’t know where to turn. They were having trouble f inding a provider,” Stewart said. “So, I certainly anticipate that we will help fill a need in the community.”

Heartland received a twoyear $200,000 grant from the Sunflower Foundation of Topeka in November that h a s h e l p e d h i re a n u rs e p ra c t i t i o n e r a n d s o c i a l worker.

On March 1, Karin DenesCollar, a licensed clinical social worker at Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, began providing screenings and therapies alongside primary care providers. She works 20 hours a week now, but is expected to be working full time in the next four to six weeks.

All of the recent changes are part of Heartland’s larger mission to provide an integrated medical home for patients — regardless of income or insurance.

It has applied to become a Federally Qualified Health Center. If approved, it would bring hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal funding to provide care. Stewart anticipates to learn whether it is accepted by Aug. 1.

when many residents have suffered pay cuts or layoffs.

The average per capita income in Crawford County is $29,900, about $10,000 less than the state average.

“It has been a very big help to families,” Turnbull said.

The clinic also serves residents in nearby Oklahoma and Missouri as well as others who drive 150 miles for care when they have no place left to turn.

“It’s not like poverty or the need for care stops at the state line,” said Jason Wesco, chief operating officer. “We just don’t turn people away.”

Integrated care The Community Health Center of Southeast Kansas, commonly called CHC/SEK, is unique in that it provides more than just medical care in its 15,000-square-foot building, which is located just a few blocks from the town’s main street.

It also offers dental and mental health services along with a lawyer, patient care navigator and pharmacy.

Providers and patients enjoy the integrated system.

While sitting in the waiting room, Michelle Mitchell, of Arma, said her family has used the center for its medical, mental health and pharmacy services.

“We’ve done about everything here,” she said. “It’s convenient. It’s easy to use.”

Mitchell has private insurance and her 12-year-old son, Richard Brown, is on a Children’s Mercy Hospital health plan. But Mitchell said she used the center when she was uninsured.

“It doesn’t matter whether you have insurance or whether you can pay at the time or not,” she said. “They send you a bill and you pay what you can, when you can, and they don’t harass you about it.”

There’s also no wait. Her son had an asthma attack in the morning, and she was able to get an appointment with a pediatrician right away.

“This is great,” she said of the center.

‘Job is easier’ Cheryl Rajotte, a family nurse practitioner, has worked in the Community Health Center since it provided only medical care and she was the only one providing it.

She had to call community doctors for help. Some were receptive, others weren’t.

Back then, she had no relationships with dentists or psychiatrists. If someone had a toothache, she couldn’t do anything but say, “Go to the dentist.”

That’s different now.

“My job is a lot easier because I have resources within my building,” Rajotte said. “I have patient consults with internal medicine doctors, pediatrics, dentists, pharmacists — all within a phone call or walk down the hallway.”

She remembers when the clinic got its start and the private health sector was concerned about the center stealing patients. She knew better.

Rajotte was the town hospital’s emergency room director before helping start the Community Health Center. She saw the patients who were coming into the ER. Many just couldn’t afford care.

“They were getting episodic, most-expensive type care,” she said. “Now, they have a medical home, and we can coordinate their care.”

Beyond basic services The clinic has an internal medicine doctor, two pediatricians and two family medicine doctors on its staff. It has specialists in cardiology, orthopedics and podiatry, who provide care at the center on a part-time basis.

The center has three chairs in its dental clinic and it offers everything from

Dr. Patrick Lancaster said he had a patient who was on seizure medicine that caused her gums to grow over her teeth. She switched medications, and then they fixed her teeth.

“She’s smiling again and going for job interviews,” he said.

“That’s where we fill a huge gap — being able to provide the sliding fee scale, so if somebody wants to take care of their teeth and couldn’t afford it elsewhere, they could do it here.”

The center also provides dental services, from fillings to varnishes, in 33 school districts. Last year, it provided dental screenings for 30,000 students.

In the mental health area, the center offers counseling, testing and medication management. There are four psychiatrists and one clinical social worker, and they see about 65 patients per day.

Dr. Darwin Anderson, psychologist, said he has about 1,500 clients. Illnesses range from depression and anxiety to schizophrenia and childhood disorders.

The center also has a parttime attorney who has 60 open cases. She helps patients with anything from divorce to housing issues.

And there is a patient navigator who meets with patients during their first visit to go over the services and answer questions.

The Community Health Center has four small clinics that offer one or two services: ● Downtown Pittsburg — dental. ● Baxter Springs — dental and medical. ● Iola — dental. ● Columbus — dental, medical and pharmaceutical.

Wesco said the center has applied for a grant to open a clinic in Coffeyville. He said he also believes there is a need for affordable care in Chanute, Parsons and Fort Scott.

“A lot of it will depend on the communities,” he said.

“We never go anywhere that we are not invited. It’s hard enough to do the work; we don’t need to face opposition as well.”

Keys to success The Community Health Center is governed by a 15member board that includes patients and community representatives.

Its $9. 3 million budget comes from grants, donations and patient service. The breakdown: ● 20 percent — federal grants. ● 6 percent — state grants. ● 6 percent — private foundation grants and contributions from individuals and businesses. ● 68 percent — patient service. This includes reimbursement for Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance and reduced fees for services.

CHC/SEK is a Federally Qualif ied Health Center, which means it gets costbased reimbursement for its Medicaid services. In return, it has to follow federal guidelines.

“Our goal is to provide good quality health care primarily to

He said the center has been successful because there is a great need for it services. Not only is the area financially poor, but its health is too.

Hope for Heartland Jon Stewart, CEO of Heartland Community Health Center in Lawrence, toured the southeast Kansas center in February.

“They’ve done some incredible things with that program, and it certainly is an inspiration to us. I see an awful lot of potential through that program,” he said.

Heartland also provides care regardless of a person’s ability to pay or insurance. It offers counseling and a food pantry, and it has applied to become a FQHC center, which would bring in hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal funding.

With the funding, Heartland would provide dental services and more.

“The whole goal has been to provide these kinds of services and have it happen in a very integrated, coordinated way and really try to meet needs,” Stewart said.

CHC/SEK has become the place of choice for its patients, instead of the place of last resort. That’s what impresses Stewart the most.

“Certainly, that is what we want to be viewed as,” he said.

“The place that is doing business and doing health care really, really well.”

‘The Johnny Appleseed of boat ramps’

1 | CAIRO

Church burned, 12 killed in riots Relations between Egypt’s Muslims and Christians degenerated to a new low Sunday after riots overnight left 12 people dead and a church burned, adding to the disorder of the country’s post-revolution transition to democracy.

The attack on the church was the latest sign of assertiveness by an extreme, ultraconservative movement of Muslims known as Salafis, whose increasing hostility toward Egypt’s Coptic Christians over the past few months has met with little interference from the country’s military rulers.

Salafis have been blamed for other recent attacks on Christians and others they don’t approve of. In one attack, a Christian man had an ear cut off for renting an apartment to a Muslim woman suspected of involvement in prostitution.

‘Security threat’ diverts Delta flight A Delta Air Lines flight from Detroit to San Diego was diverted to Albuquerque, N.M., on Sunday because of a security scare but authorities found “no suspicious devices” on the plane, an FBI spokesman said.

Agency spokesman Frank Fisher declined to clarify the nature of the “potential security threat” that caused Flight 1706 to land in New Mexico. He said agents searched the plane and interviewed the crew and 107 passengers before clearing the aircraft to fly again.

Albuquerque International Sunport spokesman Daniel Jiron also declined to say what the potential threat was. No one was arrested.

Train crash injures 34 A commuter train from New York pulling into a station for its final stop crashed into the bumpers at the end of the tracks Sunday morning, injuring 34 people, shutting down service for hours and putting this morning’s commute in jeopardy.

None of the injuries in the PATH train’s 8:30 a.m. crash was considered life-threatening, though several victims were taken away on stretchers or put in neck braces as a precaution, Hoboken Mayor Dawn Zimmer said. The injured, who mostly sustained cuts and bruises, were taken to three area hospitals for treatment, and most, if not all, were expected to be released later in the day.

River continues to rise; evacuation urged

A group of Kansas University students is asking the public to illuminate their preferences for, well, illumination.

Last month, six LED lights went up along the center walkway between KU’s School of Pharmacy, Structural Biology Center and Multidisciplinary Research Building.

The lights, on a 90-day loan program through Cooper Lighting, sit on 20-foot poles and can be distinguished in daylight by having thinner fixtures. At night they throw off a more evenly distributed and different shade of light.

Part of the demonstration project will have pedestrians weighing in on two varieties of LED lights and how they compare with the traditional metal halide lights.

Last year, KU Environs was awarded $5,000 from the Student Environmental Advisory Board to set up LED streetlights on campus in front of the Kansas Union. However, the university discarded the idea because the lights were too modern-looking for the area.

So, the plan moved to West Campus and changed in scope.

Now, KU Environs is working with Design Construction and Management to create a new campus lighting standard.

the groundwork for a boat ramp.

This spot, like more than a dozen others along the Kansas River, is helping to build what Calwell calls “an army of advocates.”

At age 70, Calwell works part time for the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. His job is to foster support among communities and local governments to build access points along the river. His goal is to have a river access point every 10 miles along the Kansas River.

“He has been quite successful at it,” said Steve Adams, the natural resource coordinator with the KDWP. “He simply spends the time with people to build a rela-

tionship, to explain what we are trying to accomplish and how that fits into the local area.”

When Calwell started building boat ramps almost a decade ago, there were just three access points along the Kaw’s 173-mile run. Now there are 14 with more in the works.

“People call me the Johnny Appleseed of boat ramps,” Calwell said. “I go out and plant the seed and start another one and then start another one.”

The first boat ramp was at St. George, a tiny town between Wamego and Manhattan.

“Small towns are better than the big towns,” Calwell said.

Japan won’t abandon nuclear power Atomic power will remain a major part of Japan’s energy policy despite the ongoing crisis at one tsunami-crippled plant and a looming shutdown of another while its quake protections are improved, a government official said Sunday.

Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshito Sengoku also said no reactors other than the three units at the Hamaoka power plant in central Japan would be shuttered over quake and tsunami concerns.

There is “no need to worry” about other reactors, Sengoku said. “Scientifically, that’s our conclusion at the moment.”

Man striving to develop Kansas River’s accessibility

3 | NEW JERSEY

The swollen Mississippi River has swamped houses in Memphis and threatens to consume many more, but its rise has been slow enough that some people were clinging to their normal lives just a bit longer. That much was clear Sunday from an unexpected smell — barbecue — in a neighborhood that already lost three houses.

Memphis residents have been abandoning lowlying homes for days as the dangerously surging river threatened to crest at 48 feet, just shy of the 48.7-foot record, set by a devastating 1937 flood.

Officials went door-to-door Sunday, warning about 240 people to get out before the river reaches its expected peak Tuesday. In all, residents in more than 1,300 homes have been told to go, and some 370 people were staying in shelters.

MIKE CALWELL, WHO WORKS PART TIME FOR THE KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE AND PARKS, has spent the past few years building boat ramps along the Kansas River from Salina to Kansas City.

So far 14 have been put in place, like this one in De Soto. His hope is that the more people are able get on the river, the more they will appreciate the importance of keeping it clean.

After standing in silence for five minutes with about a dozen other people in South Park Sunday, Lawrence resident Karl Schorno was in a reflective, man-of-few-words mood.

When asked why he participated in the action designed to raise awareness for children’s rights, Schorno had a simple answer.

“My wife,” he said.

His wife, Karen, a member of One Hundred Good Women, a local philanthropic organization that organized the Mother’s Day event, was all smiles.

“He did it for Mother’s Day for me,” she said.

At exactly 1 p.m. Sunday, the Schornos and others stood in a circle and recited a statement promoting protection for all children, which included issues such as access to clean water, education and housing. Across the United States and in 75 coun-

tries around the world, other groups were reciting the same statement in a collective action of solidarity.

One Hundred Good Women has organized the event locally, known internationally as “Standing Women,” since 2007.

Kris Barlow, a board member of One Hundred Good Women, said the annual event helps her “honor the children.”

“It’s a special thing,” she said.

Those interested in taking the survey should go to the bioswale area between KU’s School of Pharmacy, Structural Biology Center and Multidisciplinary Research Building on KU’s West Campus. The six lights along the main walkway are marked by signs.

Nearby are paper surveys that pedestrians can fill out. The survey is also available online, which can be accessed by taking a picture of a bar code on a smart phone or by using a URL address.

Horse owner hopes to start program for kids at training center “

By Elvyn Jones

ejones@theworldco.info

Over coffee during a recent morning in her horse barn west of Tonganoxie, Valerie Francis admitted with a little embarrassment she didn’t know exactly how many horses she owns.

“I own about 25,” she said. “That’s not the most I’ve ever owned.”

Laughing, Laureli Orona, the trainer at Francis’ Moriah Training Center, ducks into an office at the barn to confirm Francis does indeed own 25 horses.

Francis said horses have been a lifelong passion.

“I was born that way,” she said. “I was one of those little kids from the beginning of time who was crazy about horses. I can’t remember when I wasn’t.”

And there is talk among abortion opponents in the House about sending to the Senate another abortion bill — this one would require women to buy extra insurance if they wanted to be covered for abortion.

The way to do that is to “Small towns have more of a bring them out on the river. And once you are out on cohesive family mentality. the river, they are going to get hooked and they are Everybody knows everybody, going to want to come back.” and everybody knows who can do what.”

But Calwell’s crowning achievement is in an urban spot along the river. He was among those who helped develop Kaw Point Riverfront Park in Kansas City, Kan. Kaw Point, which was a stop for the Lewis and Clark Expedition, was once an overgrown riverbank next to a nearly abandoned industrial area.

Today, it’s a place where people come to fish off the boat ramp, walk along wooded trails and take in a performance at the stone-seat amphitheater.

“We’ve got 10 acres of land that is almost like an oasis here,” Calwell said.

In many communities, boat ramps have been the starting point for parks and open space.

For others, they have helped spruce up a public spot that was previously overlooked.

When the boat ramps go in, vandalism and trash dumping tends to go away, Calwell said.

Well, it doesn’t completely disappear.

In De Soto, rusted cans, newspapers, a license plate, a Bible and a computer bag were piled up at the bottom of the boat ramp. And Calwell had just

and beautiful,” she said. “My philosophy is if you’re going to own a horse, it should be pleasing to look at.”

Since buying her first Morgan, Francis has done her part to advance the breed — first at a barn in Basehor and the last 15 years at her Tonganoxie farm. She has and continues to participate in regional and national shows and is a regular each October at the Morgan Grand National World Championship in Oklahoma City.

With the support of her husband, Dean, she and her horses have won too many championships “to even try to remember,” Francis said.

She has been named the nation’s No. 1 Morgan breeder by the United States Equestrian Federation, has had several top horses of the

— Mike Calwell, who has spent the past few years building boat ramps along the Kansas River put up signs and cameras at Kaw Point warning would-be vandals to “smile, you’re on camera.”

Calwell’s vision for a river trail extends to Lawrence. He’d like to see a portage put in at Bowersock Dam, which would make it easier for boaters to float through Lawrence. The closest access points are at Burcham Park above the dam and below the dam at North Eighth Street in North Lawrence.

A portage is part of the expansion plans for the Bowersock Mills & Power Co. The dam’s owner-operator, Sarah Hill-Nelson, said it was among the requirements from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

“We like to consult with Mike and keep him in the loop,” HillNelson said. “But it will really be up to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.”

Along with his work with the KDWP, Calwell is an active member of Friends of the Kaw, a group that has support in Lawrence. His wife, Laura Cal-

well, is the Kansas Riverkeeper for the organization that works to keep the river healthy.

The organization’s mission explains Calwell’s motive for building boat ramps.

“My philosophy is if we are going to protect our river, then we need to get to the heart and soul of the people who live around here. The way to do that is to bring them out on the river.

And once you are out on the river, they are going to get hooked and they are going to want to come back,” Calwell said. “And, if someone wants to come along and dredge the river or pollute the river, to them it is going to be like building an oil derrick on your favorite golf course.”

Bringing people to the river just might work.

“Every time I’m at an access point, there is always someone there,” said Adams of KDWP. “They seem to be extremely popular.”

year by the same organization, and had the stallion who was the foundation of her stable named one of the top-10 producing stallions based on how well his offspring did in the show ring.

With the show season starting, Francis will attend one to two shows a month through October. But she also has a goal of adding a children’s focus to the “adult” activities at Moriah Training Center.

Orona is a part of that change. She came to Moriah about 18 months ago, succeeding Michael Graham, the barn’s trainer of 14 years who Francis said grew up attending horse shows with her four children.

The California-raised Orona has been a professional trainer for 11 years and was working at a north Kansas City barn when Francis’ insurance agent told her there might be an opening at Moriah.

“It worked out great,” Fran-

cis said. “Things have improved here dramatically.”

Together the two women are working to share their love of horses with a new generation by starting a one-daya-week horse camp for the summer, Francis said.

“(LED lights) have been considered with many projects recently and shot down.

They don’t know what model to go with, and that is what this project is helping with,” Environs President Celeste McCoy said.

The hurdle with using LED lights is the cost to install them.

They can be almost twice KANSAS as expensive UNIVERSITY as more traditional lights. The ones being considered on West Campus would cost about $2,000 per light. That’s compared with $1,200 for the metal halide ones.

But over time, LED lights are expected to save money by lowering energy bills and lasting longer. LED lights use about half the energy that traditional ones do, which can make a big difference for lights that cost $800 a year to keep on.

“In the long term, it saves money,” McCoy said.

The group has spent more than a year and a half doing research on what LED lights would work best and be most cost-effective. Group members even took a field trip to a Walmart in Leavenworth to see in person what one brand of LED lights looked like.

In the end, they decided to go with Cooper’s Venus and Talon models.

“We want to set a precedent for putting in new lights in the future,” McCoy said.

Obama: ‘Getting our man’ outweighed risks of raid WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama ordered the commando raid that killed terrorist leader Osama bin Laden after deciding the risks were outweighed by the possibility “of us finally getting our man” following a decade of frustration, he said in a Sunday broadcast interview.

The helicopter raid “was the longest 40 minutes of my life,” Obama told CBS’ “60 Minutes,” with the possible exception of when his daughter Sasha became sick with meningitis as an infant.

Monitoring the commando raid operation in the White House Situation Room a week ago, Obama said he and top aides “had a sense of when gunfire and explosions took place” halfway around the world and knew when one of the helicopters carrying Navy SEALs made an unplanned hard landing. “But we could not get information clearly about what was happening inside the compound,” he said.

Public opinion polls have shown a boost in Obama’s support in the days since the raid, and his re-election campaign was eager to draw attention to the interview.

Jim Messina, the president’s campaign manager, emailed supporters encouraging them to watch the program. The note included a link to a listing of all of the network’s local aff iliates around the country — and another one requesting donations to Obama’s re-election effort.

In the interview, Obama said that as nervous as he was about the raid, he didn’t lose sleep over the possibility that bin Laden might be killed.

Anyone who questions whether the terrorist mastermind didn’t deserve his fate “needs to have their head examined,” he said.

Obama said bin Laden had “some sort of support network” inside Pakistan to be able to live for years at a highsecurity compound in Abbottabad, a city that houses numerous military facilities.

But he stopped short of accusing Pakistani officials of harboring the man who planned the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks that killed nearly 3,000.

“We don’t know who or what that support network

U.S. wants access to bin Laden widows ISLAMABAD (AP) — The United States wants access to Osama bin Laden’s three widows and any intelligence material its commandos left behind at the al-Qaida leader’s compound, a top American official said in comments broadcast Sunday that could add a fresh sticking point in already frayed ties with Pakistan.

Information from the women, who remained in the house after the commandos killed bin Laden, might answer questions about whether Pakistan harbored the al-Qaida chief as many American officials are speculating. It could also reveal details about the day-to-day life of bin Laden, his actions since the invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 and the inner workings of al-Qaida.

The women, along with was. We don’t know whether there might have been some people inside of government, people outside of government.” He said the United States wanted to investigate further to learn the facts, “and more importantly, the Pakistani government has to investigate.”

Some members of Congress have called for a cessation of U.S. aid to Pakistan, at least until it becomes clear what role, if any, the government played in bin Laden’s ability to avoid detection for years. But Obama said that since the Sept. 11 attacks, “Pakistan has been a strong counterterrorism partner with us” despite periodic disagreements.

The president was guarded in discussing any of the details of the raid, and offered no details that have not yet been made public.

Discussing his own role, he said the decision to order the raid was very difficult, in part because there was no certainty that bin Laden was at the compound, and also because of the risk to the SEALs. “But ultimately, I had so much conf idence in the capacity of our guys to carry out the mission that I felt that the risks were outweighed by the potential benefit of finally getting our man,“ he said.

several children also picked up from the house, are believed to be in Pakistani army custody. A Donilon Pakistani army official declined to comment Sunday on the request, which U.S. National Security Adviser Tom Donilon revealed on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

The CIA and Pakistan’s spy agency, known by the acronym ISI, have worked uneasily together in the past on counterterrorism, but the unilateral U.S. raid — done without Pakistan’s advance knowledge — has exposed the deep mistrust that scars a complicated if vital partnership for both nations.

Two influential lawmakers rebutted calls for a cut-off in American aid to Pakistan, an inconstant ally in the long struggle against terrorists.

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said: “Everybody has to understand that even in the getting of Osama bin Laden, the Pakistanis were helpful.

We have people on the ground in Pakistan because they allow us to have them.

“We actually worked with them on certain parts of the intelligence that helped to lead to him, and they have been extraordinarily cooperative and at some political cost to them in helping us to take out 16 of the top 20 alQaida leaders with a drone program that we have in the western part of the country,” he said.

The senior Republican on the committee, Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana, said: “Pakistan is a critical factor in the war against terror, our war, the world’s war against it, simply because there are a lot of terrorists in Pakistan.” He also noted that the nation possesses nuclear weapons, and said a cut-off in aid could weaken the United States’ ability to make sure they do not fall into the hands of terrorists.

Pentagon examining explosive expenses of health coverage

By Donna Cassata Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — A military built for fighting wars is looking more and more like a health care entitlement program.

Costs of the program that provides health coverage to some 10 million active duty personnel, retirees, reservists and their families have jumped from $19 billion in 2001 to $53 billion in the Pentagon’s latest budget request.

Desperate to cut spending in Washington’s time of fiscal austerity, President Barack Obama has proposed increasing the fees for working-age retirees in the decades-old health program, known as TRICARE. After years of resisting proposed increases for the military men and women who sacrificed for a nation, budget-conscious lawmakers suddenly are poised to make them pay a bit more for their health care, though not on the president’s terms.

The current fees, unchanged in 11 years, are $230 a year for an individual and $460 for a family. That’s far less than what civilian federal workers pay for health care, about $5,000 a year, and what most other people in the U.S. pay.

Obama is seeking a fee increase of $2.50 per month for an individual and $5 per month for families, which approaches the current price of a gallon of gasoline.

Future increases starting in 2013 would be pegged to rising costs as measured by the national health care expenditure index produced by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which projects 6.2 percent growth.

“Health care is eating the department alive,” Defense Secretary Robert Gates said bluntly — two years ago.

The explosive expense of health care rivals what the Pentagon shells out to buy fighter aircraft, submarines and high-tech weapons, and is about half of the $118 billion that the Obama administration wants in the next budget to fight the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, backs Gates’ proposal to raise fees for working-age retirees in the next budget, and he has the support of the committee’s top Democrat, Rep. Adam Smith of Washington state.

But McKeon, R-Calif.,

843-8991

3401 W. 6th

rejects the plan to link increases in 2013 and beyond to the health care expenditure index. He wants to tie any future increases to military retirees’ cost-of-living adjustment, which this year was zero.

McKeon planned to release his version of the defense bill today. The legislation says members of the military face “unique and extraordinary demands and make extra sacrifices over the course of a 20-30 year career in protecting freedom for all Americans. Decades of sacrifices is a significant prepaid premium for health care that is over and above what the member pays in money.”

The full committee meets Wednesday to pull together an overall defense bill for the budget year beginning Oct. 1.

The committee is expected to override members of its personnel subcommittee who last week unanimously approved a one-year prohibition on any increase in health care fees.

Efficient choice Let’s hope KU’s decision to initiate a thorough study of its operations by an outside consulting group proves to be wise.

T

he plan to initiate a thorough study of how to bring about more efficiency and effectiveness in Kansas University’s effort to provide a superior academic research experience for its students, and for the benefit of the state, is a worthy and timely project.

KU officials recently announced they have signed a $2 million-plus contract with Huron Consulting Group to conduct a study to bring about “resource optimization and organizational transformation in higher education” ... how to save money, take advantage of current facilities, eliminate or change inefficient operations, how to generate more revenue and making those changes, which will result in a better, more efficient institution.

Apparently no facet of the university will be off base for the consultant’s investigators.

Every part of the school’s operation will be examined, whether relative to potential revenue improvements, to cost cutting possibilities, maintenance techniques, student services, the operation of the athletics program, dining services, campus police expenses, the alumni and endowment associations, and even the possibility of selling prime real estate.

According to a Huron promotion piece, “each $1 million in cost reduction or revenue enhancement is equivalent to a $20 million endowment.”

It sounds as if this is a good decision by senior university officials; however, many faculty and alumni question whether it was necessary to hire an outside firm to conduct the study.

Are there faculty members at KU who could have put together a plan to initiate a similar investigation? When faculty salaries have been reduced, could the $2 million-plus have been spent to pay for a comprehensive study

by KU faculty and graduate students?

Some will say it is better to have an outside company experienced in studies such as this to make sure it is free from any bias while others will say KU has faculty and courses that teach individuals how to conduct such a study and why not pay them rather than hire an outside company.

Wouldn’t KU faculty have a better firsthand knowledge of how the school is run and who has the power to make needed changes, or will, as others say, using KU faculty allow bias to enter the picture?

Hopefully the decision to initiate a thorough study of KU’s operation will prove to be a good move. The sales pitch of spending $1 million to save the school $20 million makes good sense, and cents.

His ’best night’ and its 2012 implications President Barack Obama’s stunning announcement that U.S. forces had killed Osama bin Laden is first and foremost an enormous American victory that eliminates a vicious adversary who both masterminded anti-Western terrorism and symbolized the dark side of Islamic fundamentalism.

But bin Laden’s death also has important domestic political implications.

W. Bush stressed his post-9/11 leadership in 2004, it provides a powerful boost for Obama’s standing as a strong leader and counters frequent Republican charges that he’s indecisive.

And it shows the problems GOP hopefuls face in challenging an incumbent president, as was clear in the somewhat strained statements several issued after the Obama’s surprise announcement Sunday night.

Obama’s success came against a backdrop of his difficulties in trying to complete the U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, lay the stage for starting a similar drawdown from Afghanistan and cope with the complex Libyan situation without becoming enmeshed in another major war or failing to protect insurgents trying to overthrow Moammar Gadhafi.

Indeed, it may help Obama follow through on his promise to begin withdrawing U.S. forces from Afghanistan this summer.

And his announcement that U.S. forces had killed the modern-day mastermind of international terrorism came just 66

WASHINGTON — When there’s political upheaval in Tehran, it’s often interwoven with the explosive question of possible outreach to the United States.

And that may be the case with a recent feud between President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a n d Su p re m e L e a d e r A l i Khamenei.

The key figure in this dispute is Esfandiar Rahim-Mashaei, Ahmadinejad’s former chief of staff and said to be his choice as successor in the next Iranian presidential elections scheduled for 2013. In recent months, Mashaei is said to have initiated a series of contacts attempting to open a dialogue with the United States.

This new outreach follows Ahmadinejad’s efforts in 2009 to explore a possible nuclear deal with the West, which were rebuffed by Khamenei. Paradoxically, the hard-line president, notorious for his anti-Israel rhetoric, would also like to take credit for a deal that eases Iran’s isolation and opens the way for greater contact and cooperation with the West.

“He (Ahmadinejad) craves recognition from outside, and Mashaei is his instrument,” says one senior administration official.

The political ferment in Tehran is one more sign of the Arab Spring, an earthquake that is shaking the entire Middle East.

In this environment, both Ahmadinejad and Khamenei understand that the legitimacy of their increasingly isolated regime is in danger. Ahmadine-

presidential candidates, including developer Donald Trump, former Speaker Newt Gingrich and former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty.

Other Republicans, including several 2012 hopefuls, either downplayed — or totally withheld — any direct references to Obama, lest they say something too complimentary about the man they hope to unseat.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney congratulated “our intelligence community, our military and the president.”

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum limited their comments to praising military and intelligence operatives.

Though Obama’s poll standings rose immediately, the longer political impact may be harder to f igure. After all, domestic issues still expect to dominate the 2012 campaign, and bitter budget battles lie ahead.

But bin Laden’s death gives

Obama a tangible boost in one historically accurate measure of presidential re-election prospects: American University historian Allan Lichtman’s system that rates an incumbent in re-election trouble if at least six of 13 “keys” to the presidency turn against him.

Some are pre-determined by such factors as a president seeking re-election and the GOP gaining mid-term election House seats. But others hinge on events, including two on the economy and two on foreign policy.

So far, Obama had done well on one foreign policy “key” by avoiding a foreign or military disaster but less well on the one rewarding a major success. Bin Laden’s death assures him that signal achievement.

It’s just one more reason why David Gergen, a top White House aide for both Republicans and Democrats, said on CNN, “It’s the best night of his presidency.”

years after the announcement of the death of another purveyor of mass evil, Nazi Germany’s Adolf Hitler.

It also came eight years to the day after Bush famously proclaimed a premature end to military operations in Iraq beneath a sign declaring, “Mission Accomplished.”

Obama asserted, from the outset, that he had made bin Laden’s killing or capture “the top priority of our war against terror,” a statement that could be seen as veiled criticism of Bush for overstressing Iraq or continuity with his predecessor’s vow to get bin Laden “dead or alive.”

On Sunday, Obama phoned Bush, who responded with a warm statement calling it a “momentous achievement” and congratulating Obama “and the men and women of our military and intelligence communities who devoted their lives to this mission.”

Former Vice President Dick Cheney also commended Obama, as did House Speaker John Boehner, 2008 Obama rival John McCain and some potential

say Mashaei “hasSources sent multiple signals indicating that he wants to meet with American representatives.”

jad’s circle seems to favor outreach; Khamenei and the clerics want deeper retrenchment.

Sources say Mashaei has sent multiple signals indicating that he wants to meet with American representatives. U.S. officials say there hasn’t been a meeting, and that’s probably because Washington isn’t clear precisely who Mashaei represents or what his agenda for talks might be.

Although President Obama has never dropped his offer to talk with Iran, it would be risky for the U.S. to engage any single faction. That’s likely one explanation for U.S. wariness about Mashaei’s overtures.

“The history of U.S.-Iranian relations is littered with corpses of failed contacts, where the U.S. was talking with a single faction or an intermediary who couldn’t deliver,” says a

senior administration official.

Given the widespread rumors about Mashaei’s travels, it is likely that Khamenei and his allies are aware of his efforts to open a channel to Washington. A search of the Iranian press doesn’t yield any hard information about Mashaei’s outreach, but it may help explain the recent attacks by mullahs on him and his patron, Ahmadinejad.

The public turmoil included an unusual warning from Khamenei that he “will never allow deviation in the movement of the Iranian nation” and a chorus of criticism by senior clerics against Ahmadinejad and his allies, who are referred to in the Iranian press as “the perverted team.” In parliament late last month, Speaker Ali Larijani, who is a key Khamenei loyalist, declared, “The perverted group will never succeed!”

Ahmadinejad boycotted Cabinet meetings for 10 days last month, and when he returned last weekend, he said in a show of loyalty that he was “ready to die” to defend Khamenei and was “a servant of the political system.”

According to Iranian press reports, the president added defensively: “Impeachment requires a reason. What have I done?”

The political battle erupted, according to these reports, after Ahmadinejad and Mashaei attempted to get greater control over the intelligence ministry, prompting the resignation of Heydar Moslehi, its director. But

on April 20, Khamenei refused to accept the resignation and Moslehi was reinstalled — in an unusual public rebuke by the supreme leader of Ahmadinejad.

Mashaei is described as a clever operator who, like Ahmadinejad, mistrusts the clerical establishment. The dislike is mutual. Iranian media have reported that a cleric close to Khamenei named Mojtaba Zolnour argued: “Currently, the actual president is Mashaei.

Intervention in the affairs of various ministries and the episode with the Ministry of Intelligence are the result of his intervention. ... These people do not believe in clerics and Velaayat-e-Faqih (rule by the clergy). They want Islam without the clergy.”

Mashaei isn’t the only Iranian who has indicated a desire to meet with Americans. Similar signals are said to have come last year from Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the mayor of Tehran and a rival of Ahmadinejad who is thought to be close to Khamenei. But this track apparently didn’t lead anywhere.

What’s intriguing is that the battles among Iran’s leaders take place as Muslims from Morocco to Pakistan are questioning their regimes and seeking greater selfdetermination. The ferment inside Iran may seem different, spoken in the arcane language of Shiite religious politics, but it’s part of the same process.

Fort Riley joins environmental fight ————

Post charged with achieving ‘net zero’ water use by 2020

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

By 2020, Fort Riley plans to return every drop of water it draws from groundwater and freshwater sources back to the watershed.

It’s a concept known as net zero, and last month the Kansas post was one of 19 locations the U.S. Army tasked with reaching net zero conservation goals by 2020.

Along with net zero water, the Army announced six installations that would have net zero energy, which would require the base to use only as much energy as it produces, and six installations that would have net zero waste, meaning the military compounds would reduce, reuse or recover their waste so nothing ends up in the landfill.

Two installations — Fort Bliss in Texas and Fort Carson in Colorado — will have a pilot project that will strive to be net zero in all three categories.

Katherine Hammack, assistant secretary of the Army for installations, energy and envi-

ronment, called the plan “a significant step in addressing the Army’s sustainability and energy security challenges.”

The Army didn’t give many details on what a net zero post would look like at Fort Riley.

However, an email from Army spokesman David Foster mentioned tools Fort Riley could use to reach the 2020 goal. They included:

DILBERT

● Finding where water is leaking out of the distribution system. ● Reusing wastewater from bathtubs, showers, sinks, washing machines and dishwashers. ● Building low-impact development. ● Using more eff icient appliances and machinery. ● Providing more educational programs. ● Increasing water conservation.

The hope is that Fort Riley and the other military installations participating in the project will become centers of

environmental and energy excellence, showcase best management practices and demonstrate effective resource management, according to an Army press release.

Fort Riley was one of six out of 23 applicants chosen for the net zero water project.

Specifics for the program will be discussed this summer, Fort Riley spokesman Eric Zenk said. The Army noted that public participation will be part of the process.

The NFL’s labor strife has several former Jayhawks in …

Lockout limbo

Journal-World Photo Illustration

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Most years, at least a few former Kansas University football players would have been scooped up by NFL teams by now.

While the departed Jayhawks aren’t always drafted into the professional ranks, many often have been given an opportunity to make a roster by signing as free agents in the hours following the draft.

That time has come and gone. The threeday NFL Draft ended April 30, and, because NFL players have been locked out by the owners, teams are not able to sign free agents, trade players, deal with contracts or conduct any football-related business. In short, as it stands right now, it’s as if there is no NFL. Cornerback Chris Harris held out hope he would be drafted and felt almost certain he would get a shot via free agency.

Harris remains in limbo, but the four-year starter in the Jayhawks’ secondary isn’t sweating it too much.

“I haven’t really been Harris worrying about it because we’re rookies,” Harris said. “And rookies don’t get their contracts until the season starts anyway. You still gotta get through camp and make the team.”

Of course, in order for that to be a possibility, there has to be a camp in the first place. With the on-again, off-again status of the league’s latest labor dispute, there’s no telling when that time will come. Had this been a normal year, the NFL’s newest crop of players would be preparing to report to rookie camps this weekend. Instead,

they’re left wondering when they’ll get their shot and if there will be a 2011 season.

“The main way it affects us is we usually have a rookie mini-camp, and while the lockout’s still going on we won’t have that,” Harris said. “But all the teams I’ve talked to have been telling me to be ready to go for rookie camp. It sounds like they’re planning on having it at some point.”

Harris and his 2010 teammates aren’t the only former Jayhawks impacted by the lockout. Last year, Dezmon Briscoe (Cincinnati), Kerry Meier (Atlanta) and Darrell Stuckey (San Diego) all were drafted into the NFL. They should be Stuckey preparing for their second year in the league. Instead, they’ve been forced to work out on their own while awaiting the outcome. All three were back in Lawrence last week and took time to discuss the league’s status.

“Usually a rookie makes his biggest jump in the offseason between his first year and his second year,” said Stuckey, a safety with the Chargers. “That first year, you finally get the feel for the game, you understand what’s demanded of you and what they really want and what you need to do to be

out there. And when you get to the offseason, you’re able to work on (those) things and really get the grasp of what the defense’s or the offense’s scheme was and how you fit into it. So I think that’s the only downfall to this offseason, but I’m out there working hard. I’m ready to go back, and whenever we get a chance to get back out there with our coaches I’m going to do whatever’s needed of me next year.”

Briscoe, a wide receiver who now plays for Tampa Bay, said a few of his teammates had organized practices during the work stoppage. Tampa quarterback Josh Free- Briscoe man, a former Kansas State QB, most often has been the ringleader of such workouts, an act that impressed Briscoe.

“He’s an incredible guy,” Briscoe said of Freeman. “He’s really been working hard with us as far as finding a place where we can work out since we can’t be at the facility. We actually had a workout at (the University of) South Florida. They opened their facilities to us with open arms, and we appreciated it and just got some work done.”

Mike Rivera, a 2009 KU graduate, is in a

different situation. Unlike Harris or the trio of players drafted in 2010, Rivera entered the NFL as a free agent. In 2009, he was on Tennessee’s practice squad. He split his time between Green Bay and Miami last season.

This year, Rivera hopes to earn a spot on the Dolphins’ 53-man roster, and every day the lockout continues becomes a lost opportunity for him.

“It’s kind of a bad deal because you don’t get to have an offseason with the team right now,” he said. “It makes it difficult because that’s when you learn a lot. You get to work out with the team and get to know the team and all that stuff.”

Despite the bad break, Rivera has kept a positive attitude and taken advantage of the opportunity to spend time with family and work out at KU with friends and former teammates.

“As far as how long it’s gonna be, I keep reading the stuff in the papers and seeing the stuff on the news, and they say it’s gonna keep getting extended, so I think it’s Rivera gonna be awhile,” Rivera said. “Pretty much what you see on the news is pretty accurate. Really, for me, it comes down to how I do in training camp and in the preseason, so, not much changes even though the lockout’s happening.”

Though each of the former Jayhawks is affected in different ways, all agree on one thing.

“I hope they can get everything worked out soon so we can all get back to our jobs and start getting some work done,” Meier said.

Royals positive despite setback A’s take finale, 5-2, but Royals won six of nine on homestand

KANSAS CITY ROYALS FIRST BASEMAN ERIC HOSMER stands on a commemorative Mother’s Day base during the Royals’ 5-2 loss to Oakland on Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.

K A N S A S C I T Y , M O . — Even though it ended Sunday with a 52 loss to Oakland, there was much about this nine-game homestand for the Kansas City Royals to like.

For one thing, it marked the debut of slugging rookie first baseman Eric Hosmer, the most heralded rookie to arrive in K.C. since Bo Jackson. Hosmer sold tickets, created excitement and doubled off the right-field fence

in three games against the Athletics.

For another, KC won six of nine. Any team that can win six of every nine home games could be in for an interesting year.

But now it’s back on the dreaded road. The team that went 0-6 in its last road foray is now headed for New York and Detroit.

“We had a bad road trip last time,” manager Ned Yost said.

“That doesn’t mean we’re a bad road team. It just means we had a bad trip. you have bad home stands, you have bad weeks. You

have bad series. It’s our time to go on the road and we look forward to it.”

Kevin Kouzmanoff and Kurt Suzuki each homered for the A’s, and Conor Jackson collected three hits on Sunday as Oakland took the series, two games to one. It was the first home series the Royals have lost all year.

In another encouraging development, the Royals have notched a major-league-best six walkoff wins already this year.

Smith-led Atlanta evens series with Chicago, 2-2 PLAYOFF GLANCE

The Associated Press

Mavericks 122, Lakers 86 DALLAS — So long, Phil.

So long, chances for another Lakers three-peat.

Hello, Western Conference finals for Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks.

Jason Terry tied an NBA postseason record with nine threepointers, and the Mavericks matched a league playoff mark with 20 threes on their way to a victory over the Lakers on Sunday and a sweep of their second-round series against the most successful coach in NBA history and the twotime defending champions.

Terry made five threes in the second quarter, personally outscoring Los Angeles, 20-16, in the period and helping Dallas lead by 24 at halftime. Terry finished with 32 points.

Dallas made 20 of 32 shots from behind the arc.

Early in the fourth quarter, the Lakers were so devastated that Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum resorted to throwing cheap shots.

They were ejected 45 seconds apart, with Jackson sitting on the bench looking as if he’d already checked out. Kobe Bryant soon joined him on the sideline, with deep reserves playing out the final minutes of what turned out to be the second-widest margin of defeat in Lakers playoff history and in Jackson’s storied playoff career.

By then, the 65-year-old Jackson knew it was over — the game, the series and his remarkable career.

“It’s been a wonderful run,” he said.

The Zen Master is retiring again, and he says it’s for good this time. The sour taste of his first sweep in 21 postseasons, and his second-widest margin of defeat, can’t override all the sweet days.

A Hall of Famer since 2007, he leaves with a record 11 titles, and only 10 series losses. Take away Red Auerbach, who won nine championships, and Jackson won more titles than any two coaches combined.

He won six championships with Michael Jordan, three with Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal, and the last two with Bryant leading the way.

DALLAS GUARD JASON TERRY REACTS to converting a three-point basket against Los Angeles in the first half. Terry finished 9-of-10 from three-point range and scored 32 points, and the Mavericks torched the Lakers, 122-86, on Sunday in Dallas.

He had to be talked into coming back this year. The lure of chasing a 12th title, bundled neatly as four three-peats, did it, but he knew it would be tough with a team worn down by three straight years of reaching the finals. “(That) puts a lot of strain on the basketball club from all angles: personalities, spiritually, physically, emotionally, and getting charged up for game after game and assault after assault when you go in and play a team,” Jackson said. “It was a challenge bigger than we could beat this year.”

Hawks 100, Bulls 88 ATLANTA — The Atlanta Hawks finally won a second-round playoff game at home.

They can thank a guy who frequently gets booed by the home fans, and a young guard who wasn’t supposed to be playing much at all.

Josh Smith answered his critics with a huge game — 23 points, 16 rebounds and eight assists — and fill-in Jeff Teague came up with the Derrick Rose-like plays down the stretch to lead the Hawks past the Bulls, evening the Eastern Conference semifinals at two games apiece.

The Hawks snapped a ninegame home losing streak in the second round, their misery dating to a May 13, 1996, win against Orlando.

Smith is frequently criticized by Atlanta fans for his inconsistent play. He heard nothing but cheers in this one, staying away from the outside jumpers, dominating on the inside and finding the open man with crisp passes. Teague has been an even bigger surprise filling in for injured Kirk Hinrich.

Former K-State coach Prince pleased with settlement MANHATTAN — Former Kansas State football coach Ron Prince says he is satisfied with a settlement reached with the school that calls for him to receive $1.65 million.

Announced on Friday, the settlement also absolves Prince of any wrongdoing in a dispute over a memorandum of agreement that Kansas State had contended was signed without the knowledge of then-president Jon Wefald.

After Prince was fired at the end of the 2008 season, the school said it accidentally discovered the agreement signed by Prince and then-athletic director Robert Krause.

Under that pact, Prince was supposedly owed $3.2 million by Kansas State and the Intercollegiate Athletic Council in addition to a severance payment of about $1.3 million.

Under terms of the original agreement, he was not to receive any portion of the money for almost five more years, and the full amount would not have been paid until the end of 2020.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL Capel joins coach K at Duke DURHAM, N.C. — Former Oklahoma coach Jeff Capel has taken a job on the Duke staff.

Coach Mike Krzyzewski said Sunday that the former Blue Devils guard will be one of his assistant coaches. Capel spent the past nine seasons as a head coach at Virginia Commonwealth and then Oklahoma. The Sooners fired him in March following their second consecutive losing season. Krzyzewski calls Capel “a great fit in our program.” He scored 1,601 points as a four-year starter in the 1990s.

GOLF Glover back in winner’s circle CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Lucas Glover had gone 41 tournaments and nearly two years since winning the U.S. Open for his last victory. His win Sunday in the Wells Fargo Championship was every bit as demanding.

KU hires associate AD

Walk-off slam sinks KU, 11-7

J-W Staff Report

Terry Mohajir, senior associate athletic director at Florida Atlantic University, has been hired as Kansas University’s associate athletic director for development and marketing, KU AD Sheahon Zenger announced Sunday.

Mohajir, who worked as football assistant offensive line and game-day special team’s coach at KU from 199396, will assume responsibility for the Williams Educational Fund. He will also direct the marketing and game-day experience staffs. He will begin his duties May 31.

Mohajir also was a football ticket sales and promotions account executive for KU athletics from 1996-97 and earned a master's in sports management at KU in 1997.

“We are delighted to welcome Terry back to the KU family,” Zenger said. “He has earned great respect through his professional accomplishments, but what matters as much to me is his breadth of experience here at KU. He earned his master’s degree here, so he is familiar with the academic side of campus. He also coached and gained experience in ticket sales and marketing.”

Mohajir at Florida Atlantic oversees development, marketing, ticket sales, corporate sales and the media relations department. Mohajir graduated from Arkansas State University in 1993.

“After meeting Sheahon Zenger and hearing his vision for KU athletics, I couldn’t resist being a part of his aggressive plans for the program,” Mohajir said. “We have a lot of work to do and strong leadership in place to accomplish big goals.”

“We’re in the ballgame,” said Jeff Francis, who took the loss Sunday. “When we’re in those games, we’re winning them more often than not.

That points to our record and that points to the kind of guys we have on this team. We lost this game. But we’re always in them and we’re never giving up ’til the last out is made.”

Oakland’s Tyson Ross (2-2), who moved into the rotation last month when Dallas Braden went on the disabled list, went six innings and gave up two runs on six hits, with three walks and four strikeouts. He has not allowed a home run in 282⁄3 innings.

Brian Fuentes pitched a 1-23 ninth for his ninth save in 11 opportunities.

“I’ll take 6-3 all the time,” said Yost. “The 6-3 is OK. But we played good baseball the entire homestand. That’s what

N O R M A N , O K L A . — Oklahoma’s Ricky Eisenberg smashed a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the ninth inning, pacing the Sooners to an 11-7 victory over Kansas University on Sunday at Mitchell Park.

The home run off Colton Murray (2-3) was the first of the season for Eisenberg and was the first walk-off home run for the Sooners since a 76 victory over Oral Roberts in the first game of the 2010 NCAA Tournament.

Senior Brandon Macias hit a two-run homer in the top of the ninth inning off OU closer Ryan Duke which tied the score.

It followed Chris Manship’s leadoff homer in the same inning.

OU’s Eisenberg finished with six RBIs. KU junior Zac Elgie hit three doubles, which tied a KU record.

In sweeping the three-game series, OU improved to 35-13 overall and 13-9 in the Big 12.

KU, which has lost eight straight to OU, fell to 22-27, 9-15.

The Jayhawks fell into a tie for ninth place in the league standings after both Oklahoma and Nebraka won their Sunday games. KU has five walk-off losses in league play.

The Jayhawks will entertain Alabama A&M at 6 p.m. Friday

Wilson Betemit’s throwing error let Coco Crisp reach base to start the game, and Daric Barton followed with a double.

Jackson’s RBI single made it 10 and then Josh Willingham brought Barton home with a fielder’s choice grounder.

Kouzmanoff’s home run off Francis with two outs in the sixth put the A’s on top, 3-0.

Suzuki added a solo shot in the ninth off Louis Coleman.

Francis (0-4) was charged with three runs on eight hits 1 in 6 ⁄3 innings.

Ross took a 3-0 shutout into the sixth but got in trouble with a throwing error when he tried to scoop Melky Cabrera’s infield single to first.

my friends on their birthdays.

Our 25th wedding anniversary is coming up, and I know I will be disappointed. For our 20th, I asked my husband if he would replace the engagement ring I lost. I gave him two years’ notice and got a card instead. This man does not have a romantic bone in his body. It would be nice if he put some kind of thought into one of these occasions. anniesmailbox@comcast.net Any suggestions? — Neglectdoctor’s note saying she is ed visually impaired at night.

Dear Neglected: It will help Another alternative is to provide transportation on those if you stop expecting your nights when she is on call. Can a friend or relative drive her?

Are there trains or buses? Can she carpool with another staffer or work out an arrangement with a taxi company? Please look into all the possibilities.

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

The anguished parent of a beloved child victim hosts a series dedicated to finding the missing and bringing criminals to justice. Sound familiar? That’s a pretty good description of “America’s Most Wanted,” the Fox Network’s longest-running series and one of the most dependable series in the history of television. And it also describes “Vanished with Beth Holloway” (9 p.m., Lifetime), debuting tonight.

The host is, of course, the mother of Natalee Holloway, the college senior who disappeared at the end of a 2005 vacation in Aruba and whose plight became the center of what has seemed like millions of hours of speculation on cable news and gossip shows.

But before Beth Holloway can begin looking for vanished people, she must first rehash the story of her daughter’s disappearance.

And before she can even begin doing that, Lifetime will air the 2011 cable drama “Justice for Natalee Holloway” (7 p.m., Lifetime), in which Tracy Pollan plays Beth Holloway. Please don’t confuse it with the 2009 cable drama “Natalee Holloway.” Tracy Pollan starred in that, too.

Despite her many cable news appearances, Beth Holloway has a long way to go before arriving as a convincing TV host.

Her delivery is shaky when it is not stiff.

She certainly lacks the blunt authority that John Walsh projects on “Most Wanted.”

She may project an aura of being just another concerned mother when discussing her own missing daughter, but it probably won’t wear well as she begins to discuss other family’s tragedies. ● “American Experience” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) presents “Soundtrack for a Revolution,” a look at the songs, known as “Freedom Songs” sung at Civil Rights rallies, picket lines and in jail cells as thousands organized to fight segregation.

“Soundtrack” also features performances of Freedom Songs by contemporary artists, including John Legend, Joss Stone, Wyclef Jean and The Roots. ● A week before the “Chuck” (7 p.m., NBC) season finale, Chuck’s wedding to Sarah nears, and his mom (Linda Hamilton) needs saving once again.

While this show has not yet been officially canceled, it’s more than a safe bet to assume that next week’s airing will be its last. For the record, its title will be “Chuck Versus the Cliffanger.”

“Chuck” first aired in 2007 and, like “Heroes” sort of fizzled out around the time of the TV writer’s strike. It had a decent two-year run that NBC decided to stretch into a four-year forced march. A fifth season would not be wise. But then again, neither was a third.

Tonight’s other highlights ● An ailing boxer gets a second chance on “House” (7 p.m., Fox). ● “Dancing with the Stars” (7 p.m., ABC) continues. ● Sterling finds an unlikely ally on “The Event” (8 p.m., NBC). ● Teresa takes on corruption on “The Chicago Code” (8 p.m., Fox). ● Danny is exposed to deadly toxins on “CSI: Miami” (9 p.m., CBS).

Dear Annie: I'm worried about my younger sister, “Louise.” I recently retired, and Louise will be eligible to retire in four years. She is a full-time operating-room nurse who is required to rotate being on call at night.

The problem is that Louise’s night vision has become terrible this past year.

Her optometrist says that it will undoubtedly get worse the older she gets. Every time my phone rings at night, I fear it’s someone calling to say Louise was killed in a car accident on her way to the O.R. She’s already had a few nearmisses.

Louise has spoken to her supervisor about this, but their policy is “take it or leave it.” If she quits, she'll lose a significant portion of her hard-earned retirement money.

Louise means the world to me. I always assumed our families would grow old together, but now I’m genuinely concerned for her safety. Maybe if her supervisor reads this in the paper, he will be more understanding and accommodating of their experienced, longtime senior nurses who simply cannot drive at night anymore. — Scared Sister
