DOUG NICKEL, A COORDINATOR of multimedia advertising at Kansas University, cruises down Jayhawk Boulevard on his way home from work on Tuesday. Nickel has been biking to work since 1996, and to KU since 2008 when he began his job there. His commute takes him up and down the steep east side of Mount Oread. This week is Bike to Work Week.

As the school year nears an end and summer activities to keep children occupied are rolled out, several agencies are recruiting volunteers to serve those interests. Page 2A

In Lawrence, the commute doesn’t get much tougher than pedaling up Mount Oread.

But the steep hill hasn’t kept Doug Nickel from making the trip to work daily on his bike.

“On the way to work, it (takes) about 10 minutes, and about four minutes of it is pretty serious bike riding up 14th or 17th streets,” Nickel said. “On the way home, it’s about five minutes. It can be very fast. There is sort of a line between adventurous and crazy. I just try to

May 16-20 is celebrated throughout the country as Bike to Work week. Cycling advocates say the habit is one that benefits all of us.

“It is definitely good for the pocketbook, it’s good for the waistline, and it’s good for the environment and relieves congestion,” said Todd Girdler, the senior transportation planner for the Lawrence-Douglas County Metropolitan Planning Organization.

To encourage businesses to embrace employees who pedal their way to work, the city of Lawrence sent letters this year.

Officials at Kansas University’s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences said they were happy to help 93-year-old Margaret Shirk earn a degree that she never applied for seven decades ago.

Shirk walked down the hill and finished all her courses, she just never applied for her degree.

Under the existing policy, she was able to use her requirements from the 1930s to obtain her degree in the 21st century.

But a new policy would prevent her — and many others who leave school just a few hours shy of a degree — from earning that degree without fulfilling the current degree requirements.

The new policy essentially places a 10-year time limit on using the requirements from the student’s date of admission, said Kim McNeley, assistant dean of CLAS, unless they stay continually enrolled in school.

“Sometimes, folks think about a liberal arts and sciences degree and think it’s the same thing as it was 100 years ago,” McNeley

THE FORMER FIRE STATION at 1839 Mass., now the Douglas County Fire Medical investigation center, is once again home to an American LaFrance pumper truck, right. The truck, No. 68, arrived in Lawrence 56 years ago today and was based at Station No. 2 when it was in service. It is now awaiting restoration.

Shiny and bright red, the state-of-the-art truck rolled out of a rail car into Lawrence.

The $27,500 pumper truck came equipped with a 10cylinder engine, two batteries and a 500-gallon water tank, and would serve Lawrence t h ro u g h s o m e o f i t s m o s t tumultuous times until it was taken out of service years later.

But that year — 1955— it was brand new.

Fifty-six years ago today, Lawrence purchased the American LaFrance pumper and branded as No. 68. The pumper was taken out of full service in 1968 and was used as a reserve truck until the 1980s, when a local firefighter bought it at auction.

In 2009, he donated the truck back to the department. Now, the truck sits in the LawrenceDouglas County Fire Medical’s investigation center, 1839 Mass., awaiting restoration.

Bill Stark, administrative division chief, said the pumper was unloaded off the train near the waterworks on May 16, 1955.

There, it underwent a four-hour test until the fire chief accepted it.

“This would have been the state-of-the-art truck,” Stark said.

For the first time in Lawrence, all four firefighters on a pumper could sit in the cab, although two were squished facing backward.

Mitzvah Day extends tradition of good deeds

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

The Lawrence Humane Society received some extra help Sunday, as members of the Lawrence Jewish Community Center teamed up to volunteer with the animals and work on projects around the shelter.

Leah Terranova and her two sons, Oliver and Giova Rubenstein, ages 6 and 4, spent their afternoon building an outdoor rabbit enclosure, while other family teams started other projects or played with the shelter animals. Another group of volunteers would be coming shortly, while some other members of the center would be cleaning the grounds at

Clinton Lake.

Terranova said the volunteer work was an organized mitzvah, which is the Jewish tradition of doing a good deed. Group members compared their day of service to the annual Day of Caring event from last month.

“We’re just helping out,” Terranova said simply.

Members of the Lawrence community stopping by to pitch in is an appreciated, and common, occurrence at the humane society, said volunteer coordinator Elliot Werner, who supervised the workers Sunday.

“We see a lot of that out here,” he said.

current politics — everything from President Barack Obama’s chances of being reelected to the capture of Osama bin Laden.

Woodward, the author of 16 best-selling nonfiction books, also gave some insight into the inner workings and early start of a man often cited as one of the best investigative reporters in American history.

When asked how he first became interested in journalism, Woodward said it all began when, as a kid, he worked as a janitor for his father’s law firm. After hours, the young Woodward’s interest in secrets was piqued as he snooped around the legal files in between his cleaning duties.

“Everyone has a secret,” Woodward said. “It’s usually in the lawyer’s file.”

Bush as well as his most recent book, “Obama’s Wars,” about the current president. From extensive in-depth interviews, Woodward painted complex pictures of both presidents, the decisions they make and how they’ll be viewed by history.

biking to work: ● People who cycle to work are more productive and take less time off for sickness. ● Without having to fight traffic jams, cyclists arrive at work less frustrated. ● More exercise keeps them more alert. ● With more people biking to work, fewer parking spaces are used. ● Organizations that encourage biking to work are often seen as environmentally friendly.

The city has never done a study on how many employees bike to work, Girdler said. But he knows it is a small percentage that could easily grow.

“If your trip is three miles or less, it is an easy bike ride,” Girdler said. “I think if you have a commute that short, you should look into it, look at more details and see if it would really work.”

Nickel said he bikes to work about 85 percent of the time.

When the temperature falls below 25 degrees, he walks.

Since he doesn’t have to pay for gas or parking, Nickel estimates that he saves hundreds of dollars a year. An added bonus is that he is sure to score an awesome parking spot every morning — at the bike rack.

“It’s a good way to start the day,” Nickel said.

said. “We don’t think that’s the case.”

The requirements have changed over the decades.

Math requirements are much stricter today than in the past, and elements like a course in non-Western culture have been added. For employers, especially, she said, the college wants to ensure that degrees issued from KU are all comparable to each other and represent that a student has learned a similar set of skills.

If a student is readmitted 10 years or more after the initial degree-seeking term, the student must use the most current set of requirements.

Such time limits are common in KU’s professional schools but have been lacking in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, which has the largest number of KU students, McNeley said.

of the firefighters who would ride on the truck after he joined the force in 1964. It was used as a reserve beginning in 1968, when the force bought newer trucks to replace it. But tense relations in town led to riots in the late ’60s and early ’70s, and the pumper was pressed into service again.

“During the riots, I was on that truck,” Mallonee said. “I grew up with that truck.”

Stark said the fire department often loaded up all of its trucks during that time because countless fires were breaking out around the city.

“When they had riots going on, they’d staff it up,” Stark said.

By the 1980s, the truck was taken out of service completely. Mallonee saw it regularly at Station No. 1, where he said the city parked it when they stopped using it. Then it went up for sale.

“The city put it up for auction, so I put in a bid for it. I had no idea what it would go for,” said Mallonee, who retired as a fire lieutenant in 1994.

He won the auction and immediately fixed it up. He put in a new head gasket and f ixed the cylinders and brakes. The truck joined two more fire trucks, a 1937 model and a 1945 model, thatMallonee already had at home.

“I didn’t want to see them sold or somebody junk them out or something like that,” he said.

IN 1955 THE CITY OF LAWRENCE received an American LaFrance pumper, which was state of the art at the time. Bill Stark, administrative division chief, sits in the old truck at the station near 19th and Massachusetts streets. Firefighters plan to restore the truck so that it can be used in parades and educational settings shape. Many trucks were often scrapped by departments, but Mallonee wanted them preserved.

“I decided to donate it back to Lawrence Fire,” he said.

In 2009, Mallonee donated the truck to the Lawrence department. Now the truck sits in the investigation center, which was once the station where the truck was based.

Stark said a group of firefighters plans to restore the truck.

“Compared to the trucks nowadays, everything about this truck seems small,” he said.

A comparable truck today would cost about $600,000, he said. The truck is only about 25 feet long, much shorter than modern trucks.

To sound the siren, the driver has to pump it, while still concentrating on shifting the manual transmission and pumping the brakes to stop.

With only 26,620 miles, the truck seems young, but it’s got 43,388 engine hours on it.

Stark said the first goal for the restorers would be to get the engine safe to drive again by checking the brakes and wiring. The project would be good for morale in the department, especially for those who like to tinker or love department history, he said.

“It’s a rare opportunity to get a truck back that you don’t have to pay for,” said Stark, who joined the department in 1981.

There’s no deadline for finishing the restoration, which will be done during off-hours, Stark said.

As part of the department’s historical group, Stark and the other firefighters want to show people what the old engine was like and use it in parades and educational settings.

“This is a conversation piece,” he said. “We try to engage people.”

ies in KU’s School of Engineering, said all readmitted engineering students must meet the current school requirements, but added it’s seldom a major issue for students.

Students in the college will be grandfathered in to the old rules, McNeley said, provided they apply for the summer session. The deadline to apply is May 24 for readmitted students. She said the college had tried to reach out to as many people as possible who would be affected by the change.

“Once they hit 90 hours, we stay in contact every semester,” McNeley said of students who left in good academic standing, making sure that students understand their options for readmission and to check on their plans.

The college doesn’t have contact information for all former students, she said, but has reached out to the ones whose information they had.

Even if the students have to use new requirements, their old coursework would still be counted, so they’re not start-

ing from zero, McNeley said.

Jim Yonally, a former state representative who is Shirk’s son-in-law, said that while he would have been disappointed in KU’s decision not to grant Shirk a degree — “She earned it,” he said — he would have understood the university’s reasoning.

“I earned an Ed.D. in 1972.

With that degree, I would be qualified to be a superintendent,” he said. “But woe to the school district that would hire me today.”

Equipment failure knocks out power

1 | LIBYA

Report: NATO aircraft hits oil port NATO aircraft blasted an oil terminal in a key eastern city at nightfall Sunday, Libyan TV reported, after Britain urged the alliance to widen its assault on areas controlled by ruler Moammar Gadhafi.

Libya’s deputy foreign minister Khaled Kaim sharply condemned that call, describing it as a “provocation.”

The Libya TV report said the bombs hit methanol tanks at the oil port of Ras Lanouf, causing leaks.

NATO officials had no immediate comment.

The reported attack came as the Libyan conflict appeared largely stalemated, with each side claiming gains one day, only to be turned back the next.

Libyan rebels said Sunday they have taken full control of the western port city of Misrata, 125 miles from Tripoli, the only major city in western Libya with a significant rebel toehold. The rebel claim could not be confirmed.

An equipment failure at a Sixth Street substation left thousands of Lawrence residents without power early Sunday morning.

The outage affected areas east of Iowa Street and lasted from about 6 a.m. to about 9:15 a.m., said Erin La Row, a spokeswoman for Westar Energy. However, power was restored to

most of the 5,300 customers affected by the outage by 7:45 a.m.

As of Sunday evening, however, La Row said she was not able to provide detailed information about what caused the equipment failure.

“Equipment failure in general happens from time to time.

Unfortunately it does happen,” La Row said. She said Westar would likely have more information on the outage today.

Sunday’s outage was at least the third since Feb. 23, when a switch failure on a power pole near 25th and Alabama streets, which La Row said had caught fire, cut power to about 750 customers in the area from Kasold Drive to Haskell Avenue and 25th to 37th streets. La Row was not able to confirm whether the switch failure caused the pole fire or vice versa.

A larger outage, affecting nearly 2,000 customers,

Crafting a ‘small and intimate’ business

At least 29 killed in massacre Assailants killed at least 29 people — decapitating most of the victims — on a ranch in a part of northern Guatemala plagued by drug cartels, national police said Sunday.

The massacre took place early Sunday in the town of Caserio La Bomba in Peten province near the Mexico border, according to National Civil Police spokesman Donald Gonzalez. Among the 29 dead were two children and two women.

It is one of the worst massacres since the end of Guatemala’s 36-year civil war in 1996.

Gonzalez said police are investigating whether the attack is related to Saturday’s killing in Peten of Haroldo Leon, the brother of alleged Guatemalan drug boss Juan Jose “Juancho” Leon.

“Juancho” Leon was killed in 2008 in an ambush that Guatemalan authorities blame on Mexico’s Zetas drug cartel, which has increasingly wrested control of the drug trade outside Mexico, at times by eliminating their competition.

Guatemalan police said the victims of Sunday’s massacre were bound and their bodies showed signs of torture. They were believed to have worked on the farm. Police found a message written in blood at the scene saying: “Salguero, we’re coming for you.”

Police did not say who Salguero was.

Shuttle OK for takeoff; Giffords to watch With wounded Rep. Gabrielle Giffords on hand to watch, the space shuttle Endeavour is poised to give the work week a roaring and historic start this morning, overcoming wiring problems that grounded it last month.

Giffords’ arrival Sunday afternoon included a quick fly-by of Endeavour on the launch pad, then she bid husband Mark Kelly goodbye at the bucolic beach house used by shuttle crews before launch.

“Gabrielle is excited for tomorrow’s launch. Do you plan to see history in the making?” her staff tweeted.

Later, her staff added: “Gabrielle & Mark said goodbye during visit before launch. Beach House made for picturesque setting.”

NASA officials said conditions — from weather to technical issues — couldn’t look much better for the scheduled 7:56 a.m. CDT launch today.

During the past year, Lawrence High School junior Jordan Gaches has learned that he’s not alone when it comes to dealing with teenage issues.

He said he can get stressed and overwhelmed about grades and schoolwork.

Sometimes, he worries about life after graduation and what he’s going to do.

“I previously thought I was the only one having these sorts of thoughts and going through these experiences, but I’m not,” he said.

Saddles, jackets, shoes, pianos, paint and stringed instruments line the rooms. Later, Barlow’s brother will come to work.

For Barlow, 56, his leather business in North Lawrence is all about family. He started BKB Leather, 811 Elm St., after he injured himself at his construction job. He started play-

occurred on March 22 when a transformer at the electrical substation near Sixth and Tennessee streets — the same substation associated with Sunday’s outage — was damaged when a bird flew into it. That outage was concentrated in and around the downtown area.

The coalition was started last fall through the Lawrence Arts Center, which received a one-year, $10,000 grant from the Kansas Volunteer Commission. The arts center decided to partner with GaDuGi SafeCenter.

The students have been working on a production of the 1890s play “Spring Awakening,” which is about teen sexuality. The play will be shown this weekend.

“It’s about that awkward age where you just start waking up to the real world,” Gaches said. “You really start to realize that I am a sexual being. Not everything happens for the best, it seems. There sometimes are sad endings.”

Q:

SOUND OFF

I was watching the Memphis Grizzlies play in the NBA playoffs, and I didn’t see former KU player Xavier Henry — who was drafted by the Grizzlies — on the court at all. Did he get cut from the team?

A:

Henry is still a member of the team, but he’s listed as medically inactive for the playoffs with a sore right knee. Henry hasn’t logged any minutes for the team since February. He averaged 4.3 points per game for the season.

Q:

I recently heard that former Nebraska quarterback Joe Dailey left Turner Gill’s coaching staff at KU this offseason. Where’d he go and who replaced him?

ON THE RECORD

A:

Dailey, who played at NU when Gill was an assistant with the Huskers, accepted a position at Bethune-Cookman as the quarterback coach. Dailey coached under Gill at both Buffalo and Kansas and now will be working under Bethune-Cookman coach Brian Jenkins. Replacing him at KU as the on-campus recruiting coordinator is Scott Johnston, who most recently worked with the Nebraska football program as an intern.

BKB LEATHER OWNER BRUCE BARLOW WORKS TO REPAIR a leather belt as his wife, Kris, watches and dog Isadora Duncan sleeps on the floor nearby. Barlow says that over the years he’s thought about expanding his business or moving it to downtown but in the end balked at the idea because he appreciates the intimate feeling of his store as it is.

Leather

“

We’re going to stay here, keep it small and intimate. Most customers like that.”

weight as new.

“We just fix things and make things. It’s all pretty exciting,” Barlow said.

Originally started in Barlow’s laundry room, the business grew and eventually moved to a location across from Johnny’s Tavern, 401 N. Second St. But Barlow decided to bring it home eight years ago and built his shop next door to his house.

He has one full-time employee, along with his sonin-law and brother working for him. Isadora, a dog named for a turn-of-the-century dancer, wanders around the shop along with cats Blixen and Agnes and a bird he’s had for 18 years.

“We’re going to stay here, keep it small and intimate,” Barlow said. “Most customers like that.”

Barlow’s shop specializes in what he calls “old school thinking,” repairing the old and tired. The cobblers repair shoes ranging from zebrastriped spike heels to yearsold loafers. In fact, one man has Barlow repair the same pair of shoes every year.

“It’s just word of mouth

— BKB Leather owner Bruce Barlow, on the decision to build his shop next door to his house in North Lawrence and we try to do good work,” he said.

And in a down economy, some people would rather fix their old favorites than buy replacements. It’s all about saving old things, something Barlow’s good at — the wood stove in the shop is decades old, and he’s never thrown away a sole he’s taken off a shoe in 20 years. Many adorn a tree outside the shop.

“A lot of our job here is teaching people how to take care of their stuff,” he said.

Casey Smith, 32, married Barlow’s daughter, and then became one of the shop’s cobblers. He uses glue, blades and some creativity to repair shoes, something that has become an art form for him.

“Sometimes you become the artist and make it look how you want it to look,” Smith said.

Barlow often works on more specialized projects, such a leather-rimmed mirror or a custom belt similar to the 30-year-old one he wears.

He uses high-quality

leathers, usually from Canada and occasionally from France or England. Leather prices have gone up just like everything else. Barlow said he used to be able to buy leather for 90 cents per foot, but now it’s $7 to $10 per foot.

The cost is worth it to him, though, and the prices he charges go up proportionally.

“It doesn’t pay to buy anything to compromise the quality,” he said.

Barlow likes to take on new projects, and remembers the one that perplexed him most: a removable skin for a basketball.

“He doesn’t know how to say he doesn’t know how to do something,” said his wife, Kris, who operates a quilting business in their home.

The variety of work Barlow’s shop does keeps them busy; he says it’s actually five shops in one. And having his family around makes it a comfortable environment, one he hopes will last for years.

“There’s no way I could do this by myself,” he said.

Awakening

“The counselors at my high school should be renamed ‘schedulers.’ In no way is their occupation to counsel, except about college and classes. I have never once considered walking into my counselor’s office and expressing my troubles or asking him for advice.”

Gaches said he can talk about anything with his parents, but has learned that’s not always the case for his peers.

He said many students feel like they can’t go to their parents or school counselors. He said there is a stigma associated with the WRAP (Working to Recognize Alternative Possibilities) specialist provided by Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center.

“It’s like you must be getting beaten at home or pregnant or something really bad is going on if you see the WRAP worker,” he said.

That’s why the coalition is working with GaDuGi Safe Center to start a teen mentoring program.

The coalition is working on a 30-minute documentary about teen pregnancy and sex education, and members interviewed their peers.

Christie Dobson, arts outreach coordinator for GaDuGi, said, “Kids have really great insights into the issues, and so their creativity is really, really important for us and our outreach and prevention measures.”

The students are blogging about teen issues at springawakeningatlac.blogsp ot.com and encouraging others to join the conversation.

SHANNON DRAPER, EDUCATION OUTREACH COORDINATOR AND TEACHER AT LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL, directs The Lawrence Arts Center City Youth Theater’s Wake Up Coalition production of the play “Spring Awakening.”

‘SPRING AWAKENING’ The Lawrence Arts Center City Youth Theater’s Wake Up Coalition is presenting “Spring Awakening,” a play about teenagers who are discovering their sexuality. The play covers topics such as teen pregnancy, suicide and sex education.

The play will be performed from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 N.H. Cost is $8.50 for adults and $6.50 for senior citizens.

There will be a post-show discussion and public service announcements created by members of the coalition for the GaDuGi SafeCenter will be shown.

Coalition, and has become a confidante for many. She said she has been surprised by how many of her peers have had thoughts of suicide.

“It’s a very real problem and it’s present in our community,” she said.

She said the coalition should be a wake-up call to the community that teens are having sex, drinking alcohol, taking drugs, feeling bullied and having suicidal thoughts, among other issues.

“We are not here to push our beliefs on anybody or even to take a certain stance on these things. We are just acknowledging that they do happen in our community and we are here to listen and talk about it,” she said.

Funding concerns Just as the coalition is gaining momentum, it has lost its funding.

Two weeks ago, Shannon Draper, education outreach coordinator at the arts center and director of “Spring Awakening,” said she learned that the Kansas Volunteer Commission had been disbanded.

“Now, the issue is how do we keep something going,” she said. “We’ve got invested, committed kids and concerned kids who feel it’s important to talk openly and honestly with each other and with adults.”

The students are determined to keep the coalition going. They say too much is at stake.

IMF director’s hearing in sex assault case delayed to today

PALESTINIAN PROTESTERS CARRY A COUCH TO BLOCK THE ROAD during clashes with Israeli troops, not seen, following a demonstration to mark the 63rd anniversary of “nakba,” which is Arabic for “Catastrophe,” in the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Issawiyeh on Sunday. The term “nakba” is used to mark the events leading to Israel’s founding in 1948.

At least 15 dead after Arab protesters swarm Israeli borders Obama is expected to deliver a Mideast policy speech in the coming week.

Deadly clashes also took place Mitchell along Israel’s nearby northern border with Lebanon, as well as in the Gaza Strip on Israel’s southern flank. The Israeli military said 13 soldiers were wounded, none seriously.

Sunday’s unrest — which came after activists used Facebook and other websites to mobilize Palestinians and their supporters in neighboring countries to march on the border with Israel — marked the first time the protests that have swept the Arab world in recent months have been directed at Israel.

The events carried a message for Israel: Even as it wrestles with the Palestinian demand for a state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem — areas Israel captured in the 1967 Mideast war — there is a related problem of neighboring countries that host millions of Palestinians with aspirations to return.

The fate of Palestinian refugees is one of the thorniest issues that any IsraeliPalestinian peace deal will have to address.

Palestinians were marking the “nakba,” or “catastrophe” — the term they use to describe their defeat and displacement in the war that followed Israel’s founding on May 15, 1948. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were uprooted. Today, the surviving refugees and their descendants number several million people.

Each year, Palestinians throughout the region mark the “nakba” with demonstra-

N E W Y O R K — Dominique Strauss-Kahn’s reputation with women earned him the nickname “the great seducer,” and not even an affair with a subordinate could knock the International Monetary Fund leader off a political path pointed in the direction of the French presidency. All Strauss-Kahn that changed with charges that he sexually assaulted a maid in his hotel room, a case that generated shock and revulsion, especially in his home country.

Police said the maid picked Strauss-Kahn out of a lineup.

Unless the charges are quickly dropped, they could destroy his chances in a presidential race that is just starting to heat up.

An arraignment expected Sunday night was postponed until today. Strauss-Kahn’s lawyer William Taylor said testing for evidence delayed the arraignment.

“Our client willingly consented to a scientific and forensic examination,” Taylor said. Strauss-Kahn is “tired, but he’s fine.”

The IMF, which plays a key role in efforts to control the European debt crisis, named an acting leader and said it remains “fully functioning and operational” despite Saturday’s arrest of its managing director.

A second lawyer for Strauss-Kahn, Benjamin Brafman, told The Associated Press that his client will plead not guilty. He and another lawyer went in and out of the Harlem police precinct where Strauss-Kahn was being held early Sunday afternoon and declined to answer reporters’ questions until the arraignment.

“He intends to vigorously defend these charges and he denies any wrongdoing,” Brafman said Sunday night.

Brafman is one of the city’s most high-profile defense attorneys. His clients have included mobsters and such celebrities as Sean “P. Diddy” Combs and ex-New York Giants star Plaxico Burress.

As water rises, residents warned: Get out

arrested less than four hours after the alleged assault, plucked from first class on a Paris-bound Air France flight that was just about to leave the gate at John F. Kennedy International Airport.

The white-haired, welldressed, thrice-married father of four was alone when he checked into the luxury Sofitel hotel, not far from Manhattan’s Times Square, on Friday afternoon, police said. It wasn’t clear why he was in New York. The IMF is based in Washington, and he had been due in Germany on Sunday to meet with Chancellor Angela Merkel.

The 32-year-old maid told authorities that when she entered his spacious, $3,000a-night suite early Saturday afternoon, she thought it was unoccupied. Instead, StraussKahn emerged from the bathroom naked, chased her down a hallway and pulled her into a bedroom, where he sexually assaulted her, New York Police Department spokesman Paul J. Browne said.

The woman told police she fought him off, but then he dragged her into the bathroom, where he forced her to perform oral sex on him and tried to remove her underwear. The woman was able to break free again, escaped the room and told hotel staff what had happened, authorities said.

Strauss-Kahn was gone by the time detectives arrived moments later. He left his cellphone behind.

“It looked like he got out of there in a hurry,” Browne said.

The NYPD discovered he was at JFK and contacted officials at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs the airport. Port Authority police off icers arrested him.

The maid was taken by police to a hospital and was treated for minor injuries.

Stacy Royal, a spokeswoman for Sofitel, said the hotel’s staff was cooperating in the investigation and that the maid “has been a satisfactory employee of the hotel for the past three years.”

Strauss-Kahn was arrested on charges of a criminal sex act, attempted rape and unlawful imprisonment.

Authorities were looking for any forensic evidence and DNA.

Kerry: U.S., Pakistan at critical juncture ered that the terror leader had been living for years in a compound in a military garrison town that includes Pakistan’s equivalent of West Point.

“I think the important thing here is not to get into a recriminatory finger pointing, accusatory back and forth. The important thing is to understand that major, significant events have taken place in last days that have a profound impact on what we have called the war on terror, a profound impact on our relationship as a result,” Kerry told reporters in the Afghan capital.

He added that “we need to find a way to march forward if it is possible. If it is not possible, there are a set of downside consequences that can be profound.” He did not elaborate.

There are growing calls in the U.S. House and Senate to cut billions of dollars in aid to Pakistan.

“It is no secret that there are members of Congress who have made a call for a change in the aid program,” Kerry said.

Kerry, a Democrat from Massachusetts, was making one of the most significant visits to Pakistan by an American official in years.

In an indication of the seriousness of the visit, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari, Prime Minister Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and army chief Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani met ahead of Kerry’s arrival later Sunday.

BRIEFLY Egypt’s Christian leader calls for end to sit-in CAIRO — Christian protesters disregarded a call by their faith’s top Egyptian leader to end a weeklong sit-in in front of a government building on the Nile, remaining in place Sunday, a day after a mob attacked them and their supporters, injuring 78.

The sit-in aimed to draw attention to the plight of Christians, who have been the target of several attacks by Muslim fundamentalists in the weeks since Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak was forced from office by a popular uprising.

The head of Egypt’s Coptic Orthodox Church, Pope Shenouda III, said in a statement that outsiders have infiltrated the sit-in of largely Christian demonstrators, making the situation even more explosive.

“This has exceeded the mere expression of opinion,” the statement said, “harming Egypt’s reputation and your reputation.”

He warned that Egypt’s military rulers and interim civilian government were losing patience with the protesters and that they “will be the losers if this sit-in continues.”

6 more earthquake victims declared dead WELLINGTON, NEW ZEALAND — A New Zealand coroner has officially declared as dead six people who are believed to have been killed in February’s earthquake in Christchurch even though their bodies have not been identified.

The finding today by chief coroner Neil MacLean finally gives names to all of the 181 people listed as killed in the quake that struck the southern city on Feb. 22.

Police earlier identified 172 of the quake’s 181 victims, but said the remains of nine other people were too incomplete for them to be identified forensically.

MacLean said he was making the official ruling that the remaining victims were killed to help their families grieve.

MacLean is expected to made a similar declaration for the final three victims on Tuesday.

Pakistan: Gunmen kill man in consulate car ISLAMABAD — Gunmen shot at a car belonging to the Saudi consulate in Pakistan’s largest city today, killing the man who was driving it — a Saudi national who was alone in the vehicle, police said.

The shooting in Karachi came just days after two hand grenades were tossed at the consulate building, exploding but not hurting anyone. Police official Tariq Dhareji said today’s shooting occurred in the same upscale neighborhood where the consulate is located.

It was not immediately clear if the slain man was a diplomat at the consulate.

The driver “was perhaps going to the consulate from his residence when two gunmen riding on a motorcycle showered the car with bullets,” police official Zameer Husain Abbasi said. He said a 9 mm pistol was used in the assault.

The motives for the two attacks were not immediately clear, and there have been no claims of responsibility.

Zurich voters keep ‘suicide tourism’ alive ZURICH — Voters in Zurich have overwhelmingly rejected calls to ban assisted suicide or to outlaw the practice for nonresidents.

Zurich’s cantonal voters by about a 4-to-1 margin Sunday defeated both measures that had been pushed by political and religious conservatives.

Out of more than 278,000 ballots cast, the initiative to ban assisted suicide was opposed by 85 percent of voters and the initiative to outlaw it for foreigners was turned down by 78 percent, according to Zurich authorities.

Assisted suicide is legal in Switzerland, and has been since 1941, provided the helper isn’t a medical doctor and doesn’t personally benefit from a patient’s death. About 200 people a year commit suicide in Zurich.

“It’s everybody’s own decision. It must be allowed — they do it anyway,” said Felix Gutjahr, a Zurich voter who opposed the ballot initiatives.

Engineering boost Expanded university engineering programs have the potential to provide a major boost to the Kansas economy.

I

n the closing hours of their 2011 session, Kansas legislators took a large and positive step to produce more engineering graduates in the state.

A bill passed early Friday morning will allocate $10.5 million per year to boost engineering programs at the state’s three largest universities: Kansas University, Kansas State University and Wichita State University. Also attached to the bill is a provision that gives KU authority to issue $65 million in bonds to build a new 100,000-squarefoot engineering classroom building adjacent to the 34,600-square-foot engineering lab building already under construction.

The goal of the legislation is to increase the number of engineering graduates from Kansas universities from the current 875 per year to 1,365 per year by 2021. Funds for the program will come from revenue generated by state-owned casinos, along with matching funds from the three universities.

Producing more engineers is a solid strategy to help build the Kansas economy. A quick check of online job sites Friday showed hundreds of Kansas job listings for engineers in a variety of disciplines: aerospace, manufacturing, information technology, transportation and others. Kansas needs people to fill those jobs.

One challenge, of course, is to keep those engineers in Kansas once they have completed their degrees. Over the years, Kansas universities have done a great job of producing graduates in engineering and other highdemand fields and then watching those graduates leave the state to pursue their professional careers. Kansas was a great place to be from.

In the current tight job market, the availability of engineering jobs here in Kansas likely would be a strong incentive for many engineering graduates to at least start their careers here. Once they are established, they may decide to stay a little longer.

There are no guarantees, but faced with an obvious shortage of engineers in a variety of industries, Kansas lawmakers have taken a reasonable course by investing in programs that could help fill that need.

GOP still seeking strong candidate NORTH CONWAY, N.H. — Stand in the center of this famous old town and look to the north. There’s Mount Washington with its earlyMay mantle of white clinging to the ravines. Look to the east and there’s Mount Cranmore, the storied ski hill still with traces of snow. All about there is the feeling that the transition to the new season hasn’t quite arrived.

So it is with the political season that is beginning in this state, for six decades the site of the first presidential primary. The struggle for the Republican presidential nomination hasn’t really begun. Indeed the field, like so many of the old farms along the rural byways, seems almost empty right now.

In other years when the political field seemed incomplete, there was a giant on the sidelines, contemplating his options. One time it was California Gov. Pete Wilson, another it was Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson. Both Republicans were duds once real campaigning began in North Country towns like this and in the cities and suburbs to the south.

Once it was New York Gov. Mario M. Cuomo. In the end, a plane destined for Concord, N.H., to file campaign papers never took off, and so the Cuomo campaign didn’t take off either.

This time is different. There is no giant abroad in the land, weighing a campaign, consulting pollsters and fundraisers about his prospects. The main figure in that position isn’t a giant at all, but a diminutive man with an iron will and a gold-plated resume, Gov. Mitch Daniels of Indiana, whose prospects shot up when a truly large figure, the husky Gov. Haley Barbour of Mississippi, stepped aside.

There’s another reason this time

David Shribman I have argued in this “space that the eventual

challenger to Obama will rise in stature and in prospects merely by possessing the Republican presidential nomination. I still believe that.” is different. It’s the utterly changed landscape since the slaying of terrorist leader Osama bin Laden in a Pakistan mansion where he hid in plain sight. Now President Barack Obama seems like a giant killer, in part because he ordered the killing of a giant figure — perhaps the biggest so far of the 21st century.

Where once the president seemed weak, indecisive, even lacking in audacity — I wrote these things myself only some weeks ago — now he seems strong, decisive, audacious. Where once he seemed overwhelmed by the problems that came to his in-box, he now seems confident and efficient in dealing with them and perhaps even ready to begin some new initiatives of his own.

There has been no more dramatic a transformation of an American president in decades.

Ones that come close include Gerald R. Ford’s pardon of Richard M. Nixon, which worked to his disadvantage in the polls but not in history; Nixon’s trips to China and

Soviet Russia, which worked to his advantage both in the polls and in history; and Harry Truman’s firing of Gen. Douglas MacArthur, which now is regarded as having re-established one of the bedrock principles of American civic life.

The other major effect of the bin Laden killing is to diminish some of the peripheral figures on Republican lists, especially businessman and television figure Donald Trump, who was transformed from caricature to cartoon in a few hours’ time.

I have argued in this space that the eventual challenger to Obama will rise in stature and in prospects merely by possessing the Republican presidential nomination. I still believe that.

But Joel Goldfield, the St. Louis University political scientist, maintains that major party candidates who win their nominations against a weak or depleted field may be inherently weaker in general elections than those who prevail over a stronger field.

The best example: John F. Kennedy was able to defeat Richard M. Nixon in 1960 in part because he defeated a formidable group of opponents, including Hubert H. Humphrey, Lyndon B. Johnson and Stuart Symington.

The same was true of Ronald Reagan, whose 1980 campaign against Jimmy Carter was enhanced because he was able to defeat such rivals as Senate Minority Leader Howard H. Baker Jr., former director of central intelligence George H.W. Bush, former Treasury Secretary John Connally and former GOP vice presidential nominee Bob Dole.

“A strong field greatly helps the candidate who ultimately gets the nomination,” says Scott Reed, who managed Dole’s later campaign, when he won the 1996 GOP

nomination only to be defeated by President Bill Clinton. “It makes him or her more substantive, more knowledgeable and more capable in the general-election fight. It really helps to be tested in the primary and caucus season.

It’s a great warm-up for the general election — and it’s one of the few big advantages you can’t buy.”

True — as long as the fight isn’t vicious and long, in which case, as James A. Johnson, who managed Walter F. Mondale’s 1984 campaign, argues, “The strong field emphasizes everybody’s weakness, because a strong field is about differentiation.”

Still, the Republicans seem to be seeking the presence of someone else. This new figure — and his or her identity still seems unknown — would have plenty to run on, the bin Laden episode notwithstanding.

The public is frantic about gasoline prices, which are in the $4-per-gallon range. The success against al-Qaida hasn’t brought any sense of bipartisanship to Capitol Hill, nor any realistic prospect of attacking a deficit that seems incomprehensible and a set of entitlements that seem insupportable.

So while the president isn’t home free yet, the Republican search continues.

Republicans control 29 of the nation’s governors’ offices, but none besides Daniels is widely known. The situation is the same in the Senate, where Rand Paul of Kentucky and Marco Rubio of Florida are perhaps the most appealing names, but Rubio has stepped aside and Dr. Paul’s father already is running. So for now — perhaps for a while — the GOP wait continues.

WASHINGTON — The day before he suffered a fatal tear in his heart last December, a frustrated Richard Holbrooke confided to a colleague: The Obama administration had tried everything to convince Pakistan to crack down on terrorism, including threats and special-assistance packages, but none of it seemed to work. Why wasn’t Pakistan getting the message?

The question posed by Holbrooke in his final hours as U.S. representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan looms even larger now. Despite years of American requests that Pakistan dismantle al-Qaida and its allies, it turns out that Osama bin Laden had been hiding for six years near a military training academy two hours north of Islamabad.

A catalogue of these U.S. pleas, assembled from interviews with knowledgeable officials, makes disturbing reading. Washington has been passing the same message, through two administrations: The Pakistani military promises action, but hedges its bets; the U.S. pledges cooperation, but acts unilaterally. As the problem festers, mutual mistrust increases.

The story moves inexorably toward the U.S. raid on bin Laden’s compound, which ripped the veneer of cooperation.

Repairing relations in the aftermath would require a degree of honesty and partnership that neither side seems able to muster.

One key policymaker grimly predicts: “This comes to a bad end.”

David Ignatius davidignatius@washpost.com

America keeps “warning, and Pakistan

keeps promising cooperation, but the impasse continued … ”

Let’s start with the final months of the Bush administration: A sharp warning was delivered July 12, 2008, in Islamabad by Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Stephen R. Kappes, then deputy director of the CIA. The two warned that Sirajuddin Haqqani, a Taliban leader with links to Pakistani intelligence, knew about the activities of Arabs in al-Qaida. They issued a similar warning about Maulvi Nazir, a warlord in the Pakistani tribal areas who the U.S. believed had connections to both al-Qaida and Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence directorate.

Pakistani officials assured the American visitors that the Haqqani network “will not be provided with any support by any agency of Pakistan,” a source recalls. But U.S. officials believe

the Haqqani network’s contacts with ISI continued. It remains the deadliest insurgent group in eastern Afghanistan.

Another warning came on Dec. 2, 2008, from Gen. Mike Hayden, then CIA director, a week after the Nov. 26 terrorist attack in Mumbai. Hayden warned Pakistani officials that there was “no doubt” the attack was the work of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Kashmiri separatist group with a “close nexus” to the ISI. He demanded that Pakistan close LeT training camps and dismantle its infrastructure.

That never happened.

On Dec. 19, 2008, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice bluntly admonished a visiting Pakistani official: “There are people in ISI who know everything about LeT. They have the information. ...

You have to make a strategic decision that association with terrorism has come to an end.”

The Obama administration proposed a broad alliance with Pakistan, in the hope that this would encourage better cooperation against terrorist groups.

President Obama said in a Nov. 11, 2009, letter that the two nations should be “long-term strategic partners,” and that they should find “new and better ways to work together to disrupt” alQaida and other terrorists.

Gen. Jim Jones, then national security adviser, hand-delivered Obama’s letter. He warned orally that “the U.S. expects Pakistan to make an unequivocal commitment against terrorism.” The

subtext was that the U.S. would strike al-Qaida with or without Pakistani support, including inside Pakistani territory.

Jones was back in Islamabad in May 2010 with another stern message. “If an attack against the U.S. or American interests takes place in Afghanistan it would be because Pakistan turned a blind eye towards some of these networks, even if it did nor cause or sponsor the attack,” Jones said, adding bluntly: “We still do not have clear commitments from Pakistan regarding some of these organizations. We are not certain if Pakistan rejects all forms of terrorism.”

So it has gone, month to month, administration to administration. America keeps warning, and Pakistan keeps promising cooperation, but the impasse continued up to the moment the stealth helicopters landed in the compound in Abbottabad.

How do you deal with a country that is caught in a lie? It’s tempting to say the U.S. should cut off aid to Pakistan and let them sort out their own problems. But we tried that once before in the 1980s, to protest their secret acquisition of nuclear weapons, and it didn’t work out very well. Truly, this is Pakistan’s problem, and the United States should work with its allies to send a common message: Pakistan cannot achieve its national ambitions until it gets its head straight about terrorism.

Historic Fort Scott drops park fees FORT SCOTT (AP) — National Park officials recently entertained about 300 elementary students visiting the historic Fort Scott grounds. If a decision to drop the entrance fee is successful, there could be more activity on this one-time frontier outpost.

Chief Ranger Kelley Collins said the $3 fee was imposed starting in the mid-1980s to help support the operations, raising between $20,000 and $25,000 each year.

The fee was dropped May 1, Collins said, in part because it cost the park service more to collect the fee than it brought in.

The Pittsburg Morning Sun reported the historic site, established by the National Park Service in 1978 in southeast Kansas, maintains 13 permanent, full-time staff members. There are no fences around the grounds, making it difficult for staff to collect fees from each visitor.

Collins said she hopes the site’s new policy will attract more visitors to the 1842 post who otherwise might decide to go elsewhere.

A museum on the grounds will have enough money to operate, Collins said, and it is hoped that more visitors will yield more donations to help the historic site with projects.

NORTH CAROLINA BASKETBALL COACH ROY WILLIAMS STANDS WITH THE GALLERY just to the right of Kansas coach Bill Self as Self hits during the Celebrity Skins Game. Williams and Randy Towner beat Self and Notah Begay, 4-to-2, in the benefit event Sunday at Firekeeper Golf Course in Mayetta.

Williams treated warmly in return to region

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

M A Y E T T A — Bill Self, who crushed a drive about 300 yards early in Sunday’s Celebrity Skins Game, heard no oohs and aahs from a gallery of about 250 fans at Firekeeper Golf Course.

“Silence!” Self, Kansas University’s basketball coach, said with a big smile, thrusting his arms, palms up, over his head.

That brought a bunch of laughs from several fans who took awhile to wake up on an unseasonably cold morning, as well as one of Self’s opponents.

That’d be former KU coach Roy

Williams, who along with former Alvamar pro Randy Towner defeated Self and PGA golfer Notah Begay 4-to-2, with three holes tied in the nine-hole competition.

“It’s never silent in the fieldhouse. That’s why it’s the best,” North Carolina coach Williams said to Self.

That was not the only compliment Williams — who coached in KU’s Allen Fieldhouse for 15 years before heading to the Dean D o m e i n C h a p e l H i l l , N.C . , where he has worked the last eight seasons — tossed KU’s way.

“People say time heals a lot of

University’s men’s basketball team, which is awaiting word from several potential recruits. Page 3B. things. There were some hard feelings when I left,” Williams said. “I said the day I left, I say now and I’ll say 30 years from now, my two favorite schools are North Carolina and Kansas.

“I didn’t want ’em to beat us by 3,000 points, which is what it felt like in San Antonio,” Williams cracked of the Jayhawks’ 84-66 vic-

tory over UNC in a 2008 Final Four semifinal, “but I was really pulling for them to win (in final against Memphis). I do it all the time.

When somebody mentions my time at the University of Kansas, it brings a smile to my face. That’s the way I always want to feel. It’s still a great, great place, and you can’t beat Allen Fieldhouse.”

Williams, who signed a batch of autographs on a day he was treated warmly by the fans, was in a great mood after sinking a 30-foot birdie putt on No. 16, rolling a 60footer within a couple inches on No. 10 and blasting a booming drive on No. 18. The golfers played the back nine of the Firekeeper

course, which had its grand opening Sunday.

“You see how much better a golfer Randy is now that I’m coaching him,” Williams cracked of Firekeeper general manager Towner, who dazzled with birdie putts of 10, 8 and 8 feet on holes 10 through 12 and a 10-footer on No. 17.

“Randy played great. He was probably 2 or 3 under on his own ball,” Self marveled.

Self had plenty of his own highlights. He was long off the tee, drew a 40-foot putt within an inch on No. 13 and sank a six-foot birdie putt on No. 16.

KU baseball completes lopsided sweep

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

John Young/Journal-World Photos

KANSAS PITCHER SCOTT HEITSHUSEN, LEFT, TOSSES THE BALL to first baseman Wally Marciel for the final out of Kansas’ game against Alabama A&M. KU completed a fourgame weekend sweep with a 16-2 victory Sunday at Hoglund Ballpark.

Sunday, for the fourth straight game, Kansas University’s baseball team pounded visiting Alabama A&M in seven innings, this time by a 16-2 margin that gave the Jayhawks their first four-game winning streak of the season.

Considering the wins against A&M actually dropped the Jayhawks’ RPI rating, it was easy to see why nobody in the KU clubhouse was doing cartwheels over the performance.

There was, however, a reason for the Jayhawks to be proud Sunday, and that was the main thing on KU coach Ritch Price’s mind following the lopsided victory.

“I thought we did a really nice job of playing with class,” Price said. “Sometimes when you get into games like that, it can get out of hand, and you never want to disrespect the game. That part’s really important to me. And I thought our players did a firstclass job of respecting the situa-

The Jayhawks scored in all but one inning, including five-spots in the first and sixth, and again pounded 18 hits. One of them literally lit up the scoreboard, as senior outfielder Jimmy Waters’ second-inning home run banged

off the video board in right field.

Waters’ team-leading seventh homer gave Kansas a 7-0 lead and left Waters smiling long after the game had ended. See, the only other time Waters had rocked a home run into the scoreboard came during intrasquad games.

“Actually, I broke the P in

Hoglund Ballpark on (KU pitcher Colton) Murray one fall,” Waters said. “But never in a live game.”

Murray, KU’s regular closer who started Sunday’s game, remembered the moment all too well. In fact, as soon as Murray saw Waters make contact on his latest home run, his thoughts shifted back to that fall day, and he found himself rooting for Waters’ blast to repeat the feat.

“I was kind of hoping he’d hit another letter up there so he could forget about mine,” Murray said.

The outing — Murray pitched four innings, gave up two hits and one run while striking out three — didn’t provide the ninthinning drama Murray is used to, but the Jayhawks appreciated the change of pace.

“I was pleased for Colton,” Price said. “He’s gone, like, one inning, four games in a row, where every pitch was pressurepacked. Today, he got extended.

He found his rhythm again and, Please see BASEBALL, page 3B

NBA PLAYOFFS

Thunder clinch spot in West finals ————

Rose sparks Bulls to Game 1 throttling of Heat, 103-82 NBA PLAYOFFS SCHEDULE

The Associated Press

Thunder 105, Grizzlies 90 OKLAHOMA CITY — Coming off his worst performance in the playoffs, Kevin Durant couldn’t get his shots to fall again.

Then he caught a glimpse of his mother dancing around during a timeout, and, like magic, the ball started going through the net.

Durant scored 39 points for his best offensive outing of the series, Russell Westbrook had his first playoff triple-double, and the Oklahoma City Thunder advanced to the Western Conference finals with a victory over the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 7 on Sunday.

“I knew she had those dance moves,” Durant said. “She used to do it all the time when I was young.

She was having fun. I was glad to see that.”

Soon enough, he was having fun, too — and the Thunder are twostepping into Texas for the franchise’s first appearance in the West finals since losing in the NBA finals in 1996 as the Seattle SuperSonics.

Game 1 against the Mavericks is Tuesday night in Dallas.

Durant, the NBA scoring champion the past two seasons, followed the lowest-scoring game of his two postseason appearances with one of his best. He heated up in the second quarter after the entertaining exchange with his mother, put the Thunder in control late in the third, then put it away with a pair of two-handed slams in the fourth.

“Durant is a special player, one of the best players in the NBA,” said Memphis star Zach Randolph, who was limited to an inefficient 17 points and 10 rebounds. “The kid is a gym-rat. He works hard.

He’s one of my favorite players.

You’ve got to give him kudos and

Bulls 103, Heat 82 CHICAGO — Derrick Rose scored 28 points, Luol Deng contained LeBron James, and Chicago struck first in the Eastern Conference finals, pulling away to beat the Heat in Game 1 on Sunday night.

The Bulls are off to a good start in this series after sweeping the Heat during the regular season.

They went on a 10-0 run midway through the third quarter, then pulled away in the fourth. As the final minutes ticked away, fans could not contain themselves, chanting “Over-rated!” and “Beat the Heat!”

Game 2 is Wednesday night in Chicago, and they’ll certainly take another performance like this.

Rose settled down after committing three early turnovers and showed why he is the MVP. He hit three three-pointers and the Bulls converted 10 of 21 in all.

Deng had 21 points. He hit four threes, had four steals, seven rebounds and simply put the clamps on The King, holding James to 15 points on 5-of-15 shooting.

Carlos Boozer added 14 points and nine rebounds. Joakim Noah had 14 rebounds, and the Bulls pounded the Heat on the glass, 4533. Chris Bosh led Miami with 30 points and nine rebounds. Dwyane Wade scored 18 points, but the Heat simply were overmatched down the stretch.

The Heat were leading, 58-57, midway through the third when the Bulls made their run, reeling off 10 straight and seizing the momentum.

Rose and Bogans started it by nailing three-pointers. A steal by Bogans against Wade led to two free throws by Rose after he got knocked to the floor.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL A&M taps Murray State’s Kennedy

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLA. — In a playoff for the first time on the PGA Tour, K.J. Choi conquered an island green and more pressure than he can remember Sunday to win The Players Championship.

He won’t forget the way it ended — and neither will David Toms. Toms went from narrowly missing an 18-foot birdie putt for the win on the 17th hole at the TPC Sawgrass to missing a 31⁄2-foot comeback putt for par, handing Choi the biggest win of his career.

COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS — Billy Kennedy returned to Texas A&M on Sunday, leaving Murray State to replace Mark Turgeon as the Aggies’ basketball coach.

“I think he is the perfect fit for Texas A&M,” athletic director Bill Byrne said in a statement.

“In talking to several people who I respect in college basketball, they mentioned Billy as an outstanding basketball coach, but an even better person.”

Turgeon left last week to coach Maryland.

The 47-year-old Kennedy, a former assistant at A&M, will be introduced on the campus today.

Kennedy was the Ohio Valley Conference coach of the year twice in his five seasons with the Racers.

ST. PAUL, MINN. — Derek Boogaard’s relatives and fans shed tears Sunday as they remembered the former NHL tough guy as a “teddy bear” who was as generous and kind as he was burly and tough, a somber end to a weekend during which his distraught family agreed to donate his brain to medical researchers.

The 28-year-old Boogaard was found dead in his Minneapolis apartment Friday, five months after he sustained a season-ending concussion with the New York Rangers. He was the older brother of Kansas University senior women’s basketball player Krysten Boogaard.

Derek Boogaard’s agent and a spokeswoman for the Boston University School of Medicine confirmed Sunday that his brain will be examined for signs of a degenerative disease often found in athletes who sustain repeated hits to the head.

“It’s an amazing thing he did and his family did. Hopefully, that’ll bring some information,” agent Ron Salcer said. “We don’t know exactly the impact that the concussions might have played.”

Salcer spent three days with Boogaard in Los Angeles earlier in the week. Salcer remarked about his client’s brightened demeanor, after suffering through a winter of not being able to play or even be active while his head healed.

“He seemed very good, and that’s what makes it more painful,” Salcer said. “He was really starting to feel better about everything.

He was in great shape.”

Minneapolis police said there were no outward signs of trauma, but results of an autopsy are expected to take several weeks. There is no known concussion connection to his death, but at Boogaard’s wish his family signed papers to donate his brain to the BU Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy.

Upcoming week big for Kansas basketball

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

MAYETTA — The last week of the spring signing period figures to be a huge one for Kansas University’s men’s basketball team.

“How we do could very well determine whether or not we have a chance to win the league next year or have a chance to just keep our head above water,” KU coach Bill Self said Sunday, speaking in generalities of today through Wednesday, the last three days of the signing period.

“If we are able to finish strong, we’ll be good. ...

There’s not many guys left out there that can really play because everybody signed (early). We just happen to be recruiting three or four of them. We still have three kids we’ve got to sign, or two kids at least.”

Self can’t talk about specific prospects in accordance with NCAA rules.

It’s common knowledge, however, that the Jayhawks are pursuing: No. 10-ranked DeAndre Daniels, a 6-foot-8 forward from IMG Academies in Bradenton, Fla., who is considering KU, Texas and Duke; No. 24 Trevor Lacey, a 6-3 combo guard from Butler High in Huntsville, Ala., considering KU, Kentucky, Alabama and Auburn; and No. 141 Jamari Traylor, a 6-7 forward from IMG considering KU, Oklahoma State, Indiana and Texas Tech.

Self said he’d never gone this late in the process with so many players still undecided.

“It’s been weird,” he said.

“We’ve had kids sign late before, (but) I haven’t had an experience where the kids we are recruiting have no intention of doing anything early.

ONLINE ■ Kansas University’s men’s

basketball team has either won or shared the Big 12 regular season title for seven straight seasons. Will anyone in the conference challenge the Jayhawks next year in their quest for No. 8 in a row?

Big 12 blogger Eric Sorrentino breaks it down in the latest Conference Chatter blog, only on KUsports.com.

That’s OK. Everybody has different game plans in recruiting. Some like to sign early.

Some like to wait to see how everything plays out, which I think can be smart at times.

“I don’t think I’ve been in a situation where three or four kids you really want all decide, ‘Hey we’re going to wait until the end of the sign-

obviously, he’s a very important person for us.”

Said Murray of trotting out to the mound in the first inning instead of the last: “I had to somehow just get excited, and the way I did that was by focusing on the fact that it was a start.

And then I tripped on the way out to the national anthem.”

Although KU’s four-game sweep of the Bulldogs won’t make national headlines, it did come at a great time for a team that struggled during the past two weekends. Last weekend, KU was swept at Oklahoma. The previous weekend, the Jayhawks dropped three straight at Texas Tech. Although the competition wasn’t on par with those opponents, the Jayhawks found a way to take plenty of positives out of this weekend’s sweep.

“It’s better than not playing,” Price said. “We just needed to play and get that winning taste back in our mouths.”

The Jayhawks (26-27) will close the regular season this weekend with three games against Kansas State. Friday’s contest will take place in Manhattan, and the Saturday and Sunday games will be at Hoglund Ballpark. KU needs to win at least two of three to

They have demands on their time. They are out there trying to get the best recruits they can for next season. For them taking a day to do this is special for me.”

It was a morning with a lot of laughs to go with great golf shots.

“If I practice hard the next year-and-a-half, I’ll have a shot at the Senior Tour,” added the 48-year-old KU coach. “It may take three years. I have no shot at doing anything other than hacking it around with some guys on the weekends.”

Notes ■ Williams addressed his coaching future Sunday.

“As long as my health holds, I’d like to go another six to 10 years at least, but I am enjoying the dickens out of it,” he said.

“I am 60 years old now.

Coach (Dean) Smith stopped at 66. He told me he didn’t want me to stop that early, so that’s the reason I picked the number six. I picked 10 ... no reason, round numbers. I don’t want to be out there at 71 or 72 if I don’t have my health.”

■ Self and Begay earned $3,500 for Self’s Assists Foundation. Williams and Towner won $6,500 for Boys and Girls Club of Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation. The casino provided the prize money.

KU and the three other Big 12 rowing schools — Kansas

Players actually do not have to sign letters-of-intent. They can sign financial-aid documents upon reporting to campus.

Lacey says he’ll announce his college choice at 2 p.m.

Wednesday. Daniels and Traylor have not yet announced their plans.

“Certainly there’s a variety of reasons why maybe they haven’t signed yet,” Self said, again not mentioning anybody by name. “In their world, they are valid reasons. I’m not going to try to convince them to hurry up and sign. Hopefully, as it plays out we’ll have a chance to wear on them a little bit in a very positive way.

Other people are trying very hard, too. The schools that have one or two scholarships left would love to have these kids.”

KU already has landed guards Ben McLemore and

Naadir Tharpe and forward Braeden Anderson.

“We have playing time to offer, but it’s not going to be easy for anybody to come in and beat out guys who are returning. They will have to come in and work and perform to have a chance to play a lot,” Self said.

North Carolina coach Roy Williams, who has completed his recruiting for the upcoming season, said at Sunday’s Celebrity Skins Game: “With four scholarships this time of year, it can’t be comfortable (for Self), but I have a feeling he and his staff will figure it out.

“They will be a fun team to watch. Like I said, I think they were the best team in the country this year, but college basketball, the one game and you are out is not always conducive to having the best team win. I’ve been there before myself.”

SCOREBOARD

Skins game “I kept the ball in play. I didn't putt great, but for me, a 12handicap, I probably played OK. I think I only had a couple of bad miss-hits,” Self said.

He was asked about his coaching counterpart, who admittedly takes Skins competitions seriously.

“Roy loves golf. I like it OK,” Self said. “His passion for it is a little different than mine. That’s what golfers do. They take it seriously. If I practiced more, maybe I’d take it a little more seriously. It’s good Roy is here.

I think he did such a great job when he was at KU for 15 years.

He deserves the pat on the back the fans give him when he is around. It was a good day.”

Four-time PGA champ Begay, who designed the course, made a 40-foot birdie putt on No. 13 and four-footer for birdie on 14.

“You can be a golf fan or a basketball fan and enjoy today. At least I brought in some guys I know I can beat.

That’s the luxury of being the designer,” Begay said with a

ing period.’ We need to hit a home run late, but I think we are in a position to do so, but it hasn’t happened yet.”

Self said he thought the Jayhawks, “were in pretty good shape with the junior recruiting class.”

So it’s a matter of finalizing this year’s roster — he has four scholarships available — then moving on to the Class of 2012.

“Nobody is pulling our chain. Nobody is pulling the other schools’ chain. It’s a situation ... we have the Charlie Villanueva kid we had at Illinois. He never signed. It’s why he ended up going to Connecticut because there were some things that happened late.

“It’s really not frustrating, but it is a little nerve-wracking because we know how important it is to lock these last couple up.”

Husband’s behavior may be sign of mental health issue

Dear Illinois: Your husband seems a little paranoid. Has he always been like this? If it is a relatively new phenomenon, or if he is getting worse, please ask him to see his doctor for a complete checkup.

Sometimes these problems are neurological in origin and can be treated. They also can be signs of incipient dementia or a reaction to medication. If

I went home hungry, and the others went home perplexed. I think my friend should have told me about their plans instead of assuming I would know. Now, I never go anywhere without plenty of cash. I think people who issue invitations should make it clear what activities are included and who is expected to pay for what. In this particular situation, did I anniesmailbox@comcast.net do the right thing? — Puzzled that is not the case, however, about Propriety and your husband is unwilling Dear Puzzled: Yes, although to work on the marriage, you may need to separate for your it also would have been OK to own mental health.

CBS ends its Monday night season a week early. The network continues to dominate the ratings for the night. The one gray cloud on the horizon is the welldocumented implosion of “Two and a Half Men,” or rather its star and inspiration, Charlie Sheen.

“How I Met Your Mother” (7 p.m., CBS) wraps up its sixth season of romantic flashbacks with Ted getting cold feet about being a best man. CBS liked “Mother” so much that they basically cloned it with “Mad Love” (7:30 p.m., CBS), a lukewarm mid-season vehicle for Sarah Chalke (or at least her hair) that wraps up with Ben and Kate reminiscing.

“Mike & Molly” (8:30 p.m., CBS) may pass itself off as something “different” — a love story between two plus-sized characters — but it couldn’t be more old-fashioned, punch linedriven and predictable. It’s the kind of sitcom that made people hate sitcoms.

There was never much doubt that “Hawaii Five-O” (9 p.m., CBS) would succeed. Forget its classic pedigree: It’s essentially a generic blow-’em-up cop drama set on the gorgeous island location that made “Lost” such video catnip. The only way “Five-O” would fail is if it aired on NBC. Over on NBC, “Chuck” (7 p.m., NBC) wraps up with his wedding ceremony still in mortal peril. “The Event” ends its first (and probably final) season next Monday.

Another returning show ending its season tonight is “Castle” (9 p.m., ABC).

Look for the author crime-solver to find a link to his mother’s murder. “Castle” has proven durable for ABC as a fairly bloodless mystery throwback to the “Murder She Wrote” genre with a hint of sexual tension (“Moonlighting,” “Bones”) thrown in.

Not the most cutting-edge series on the dial, but compared to stuff that passes for “wit” on “Dancing with the Stars” (7 p.m., ABC) it’s terribly sophisticated.

“90210” (7 p.m., CW) ends its season with a graduation, and Blair faces a big decision on the season finale of “Gossip Girl” (8 p.m., CW).

“House” and “The Chicago Code” end their seasons next Monday. “House” will return. “Chicago” has been deep-dished. ● “American Experience” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) reaches back 50 years to the spring of 1961 with “Freedom Riders.” It recalls a band of idealistic young people, both black and white who boarded public buses in Washington, D.C. and Nashville and tried to ride them unmolested through the deep South, where segregation still held sway. They were confronted with savage violence that made headlines the world over.

“Freedom” does a good job of describing the rather nuanced politics of the time.

Neither President John F. Kennedy nor civil rights leader Martin Luther King exactly championed their agenda. But the story belongs to young people (now 70ish) committed to civil rights and nonviolence and ready to die for their cause.

Tonight’s other highlights ● Thirteen tries to bend the rules on “House” (7 p.m., Fox). ● Martinez returns to the White House on “The Event” (8 p.m., NBC. ● A fistfight at a reception after an infant’s baptism sets the tone for another season of “Real Housewives of New Jersey” (8 p.m., Bravo). ● “Law & Order: Los Angeles” (9 p.m., NBC) offers a plot inspired by the shooting of Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

simply say that you left your wallet at home and would repay anyone who covered the cost. When someone else is providing transportation, it is helpful to know where you are going. If a meal is included, those expected to attend should be informed. However, most people assume others either have cash or a credit card with them at all times. As you have painfully learned.

Dear Annie: I was recently invited to attend a friend’s confirmation. Since I do not drive, my friend’s family offered to pick me up and take me home from the church.

However, when the confirmation was over, the family drove to a nearby restaurant for brunch.

No one had mentioned to me that there would be a brunch afterward. I had only enough money for a cup of coffee and was very embarrassed. People kept asking me why I wasn’t eating, but I felt it would have been rude to say that I was caught by surprise and couldn’t pay for a meal. I’m sure someone would have offered to pay for me, but that would have

Dear Annie: My husband and I can no longer communicate effectively with each other, and our eight-year marriage is suffering as a result.

It’s like we are living in two separate worlds. In his, no one is trustworthy, including me.

We are all out to get him. He sees signs of intentional disrespect from others where there are none, and when some minor issue doesn’t go his way, he has a temper tantrum like a 2-year-old. He is verbally abusive. He’s also convinced that the economy will collapse soon, so he’s started stockpiling food.

We spent a year in weekly couples counseling with absolutely no positive progress. I have been unable to get him to go to counseling on his own. I cannot live like this anymore and am thinking about a separation. We each have grown children from previous marriages, and they are on their own. Help. — Illinois

Mariners-Indians, ppd., rain C L E V E L A N D — The Seattle Mariners’ game in Cleveland was postponed by rain Sunday, the second straight day a contest between the teams was called off because of inclement weather.

Red Sox 7, Yankees 5 NEW YORK — Kevin Youkilis hit a tying three-run homer, David Ortiz had a go-ahead drive, and Boston completed a sweep of reeling New York to reach .500 for the first time this season.

Jon Lester (5-1) shrugged off a slow start to beat New York again, and Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit his first homer with Boston as the Red Sox swept a three-game series in the Bronx for the first time since April 2004.

Heavily favored to win the AL East, the Red Sox opened the season 0-6, but finally evened their record (20-20) on their fourth try.

Despite jumping out to a 41 lead, the Yankees matched their longest losing streak since May 2009 by losing their fifth straight — all at home.

Reds (finally) beat Cards’ Carpenter The Associated Press

Reds 9, Cadinals 7 C I N C I N N A T I — Brandon Phillips hit a bases-loaded double in the seventh inning that ended Chris Carpenter’s outing and his five-year streak of beating the Reds.

Carpenter (1-3) hadn’t lost to the Reds since June 6, 2006, winning his last 10 decisions.

Left-hander Travis Wood (3-3) gave up back-to-back solo homers by Lance Berkman and Yadier Molina in the second inning, but little else against the NL’s most prolific lineup.

Giants-Cubs, ppd., rain CHICAGO — Sunday’s series finale between the Cubs and Giants was postponed by rain.

Cubs officials announced the postponement three hours before the game was scheduled to start. It was raining lightly in Chicago, and forecasts called for little improvement.

Sunday’s game would have featured Giants ace right-hander Tim Lincecum (3-3) against Cubs righty Carlos Zambrano (4-1).
