An anonymous donor has contributed $4 million to fund spinal cord research at Kansas University Medical Center.

The research will be led by Peter Smith, director of KUMC’s Institute for Neurological Disorders and director of the Spinal Cord Injuries Repair Program, and Randolph Nudo, director of Smith the Landon Center on Aging.

Smith’s research focuses on stem cells and their potential to alleviate spinal cord injuries. The research involves converting cells from a patient’s skin to cells that mimic stem cells, from which neurons can be generated.

Nudo’s research uses microelectronics to develop a system Nudo that can stimulate healthy neurons above and below the injury to carry messages from the brain to other parts of the body.

The donation supports the same kind of translational research that KUMC was recognized for

T O P E K A — Kansas Board of Regents members on Wednesday said legislators need to know that how much they fund schools — or don’t fund schools — affects how much students pay in tuition.

“Tuition ought to be part of this discussion,” said acting regents chair Ed McKechnie.

The board, which oversees higher education in Kansas, is preparing a proposed budget to be submitted to Gov. Sam Brownback and BOARD OF REGENTS the Legislature.

Today, the board is expected to approve tuition increases for all six public universities, including Kansas University.

KU has proposed increasing tuition and required fees from $4,012 to $4,234, a $222 or 5.5 percent increase for an undergraduate taking 15 hours. The tuition for a non-Kansas resident would increase from $9,504 to $10,179, a $675 increase or 7.1 percent.

Graduate students would face a 5.5 percent increase for residents and 5.9 percent for nonresidents.

Tuition and fees under the KU Compact — first-time, degreeseeking freshman — would be fixed for four years and would increase from $4,366 to $4,611, or

TOPEKA — A Kansas University-run scholarship program that puts physicians in underserved areas in the state has become such a success that it needs more money, officials said Wednesday.

Kansas Board of Regents member Jarold Boettcher said the program “has a tremendous impact and is one we should work hard to protect.”

In preliminary budget discussions, KU has requested authorization to seek $1.87 million in additional funding for the Medical Loan Program for the fiscal year that starts July 1, 2012.

The program is administered by the KU Medical Center and provides tuition, fees and a monthly stipend for students at the KU School of Medicine.

The loans can be repaid by entering a primary care specialty and then practicing in an underserved county in Kansas for one year for each year of loan support.

Friends, family of crash victim maintain memorial

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

When friends and family of Matthew Thompson, a Lawrence man killed in a November 2004 motorcycle accident, decided to place a cross at a spot near where he was killed — in front of Graystone Apartments, 2512 W. Sixth St. — they wanted it to last.

So, after talking with city officials, they placed an iron cross four-feet deep in cement.

And more than six years later, the cross still stands, and friends frequently change the flowers and decorate the cross.

“He meant a lot to us,” said Beverly Turpin, who, along with her twin sister, Barbara Pine, keep the cross up to date. Seasonally, they change decorations at the site.

“It really fits in very nicely,” Smith said. “The timing couldn’t be better.”

The donation will help support salary, staff, research infrastructure and other expenses for the research projects.

Private donations are often useful in providing a flexible funding source for projects the NIH might not be interested in supporting, Smith said.

“We’re seeing this sort of philanthropy-university partnership becoming much more common these days,” Smith said.

Snow, for a couple of years.

There’s also usually a gathering of friends at the site near Christmas, said Thompson’s sister, Amy Cox. “That was his favorite holiday,” she said.

Memorial crosses dot roadways across the state, said Kimberly Qualls, spokeswoman for the Kansas Department of Transportation. Qualls said the state doesn’t have a policy regarding the roadside memorials.

The agency also doesn’t keep track of the number or memorials.

Thompson’s cross is technically on city-maintained property near the sidewalk.

City officials have received no complaints, said Megan Gilliland, city spokeswoman.

Turpin said she’s pleased the cross has remained, as it helps her “keep remembering (Thompson).”

College to auction off Kansas artists’ pieces

Doctors

LINDSBORG — Bethany College plans to auction 11 artworks by Kansas artist Birger Sandzen, who created most of his work while teaching at the central Kansas college in the 1900s.

The auction Aug. 13-14 at the Manitou Gallery in Santa Fe, N.M., also will include a collection of the college’s Native American pottery, college officials announced Tuesday. The event is designed to raise money for Bethany’s scholarship funds.

Sandzen, who immigrated from Sweden to teach at Bethany in 1894, is one of the most well-known artists who did most of his work in Kansas, said Ron Michael, curator at the Sandzen Memorial Art Gallery in Lindsborg. The artist traveled around the nation with his work, which often featured Kansas landscapes.

The collection is significant because of the quality of pieces and the time span — from about 1910 to 1940, said Charla Nelson, gallery director at Manitou Galleries.

“This grouping is by far the most important that’s ever come up at one place at one time,” she told The Wichita Eagle. “You can actually see his very distinctive style develop over the works that we’ve got.”

been funded by tax dollars, and by those who fail to satisfy the service commitment, who are then required to repay the loan plus a 15-percent penalty, according to a regents memo.

But over the years, more recipients have been satisfying their service obligation.

Ten years ago, 350 recipients were re-paying the loans; now that number has fallen to 28, according to the memo.

The program supports about 120 loans per year.

Next year, the program will have about $4 million, but will need $5.8 million, creating the shortfall.

Without additional support, fewer physicians will be available to serve in underserved areas of the state, the memo states.

The regents board is expected to work on its budget proposal this summer and submit it to Gov. Sam Brownback in September.

$245, a 5.6 percent increase.

Nonresident students would see an increase from $10,769 to $11,304, or 5 percent.

The board has come under fire in recent years for approving tuition increases that exceed inflation, but regents have noted that the Legislature’s funding of higher education continues to decline.

McKechnie, a former legislator and member of the House Appropriations Committee, said when board members meet for a retreat in August they should discuss ways to approach legislators.

“Do we say to the Legislature that we really need this amount, and if you don’t fund this, tuition is going to be ‘X’?,” McKechnie said.

He said higher education officials also need to emphasize to legislators that there are system-wide costs that are beyond their control, such as health insurance and utilities.

Like much of state government, public higher education has sustained budget cuts over the past couple of years.

The budget just signed into law by Brownback allocates an estimated $744 million to higher education for the fiscal year that starts July 1. That compares with $753 million for the current fiscal year.

During the two years prior to that, higher education was cut by $100 million.

Board members said they hope to get a proposed budget for the next fiscal year to Brownback by Sept. 15.

Brownback will submit his budget recommendation to the Legislature in January when the 2012 session starts.

In recent years, the board has started budget discussions later in the year, but now officials said they wanted to begin earlier to get more input.

“Trying to move this up a little bit is helpful all the way around,” said Regents President and Chief Executive Officer Andy Tompkins.

LAWRENCE HUMANE SOCIETY

1 | YEMEN

Militants step up attacks amid turmoil Al-Qaida-linked militants temporarily seized parts of a provincial capital in southern Yemen on Wednesday, the latest in a series of brazen attacks by extremists taking advantage of the turmoil in the poor Arab nation.

The increasingly bold fighters are expanding their reach after wounded President Ali Abdullah Saleh left Yemen for Saudi Arabia and cast the country into deeper chaos. Their gains in a nearly lawless region of southern Yemen lend urgency to U.S. efforts to bolster military capabilities that can be used to strike at the terrorist network.

Yemen is at the southern corner of the Arabian Peninsula close to the Gulf’s vast oil fields and strategic shipping lanes in the Arabian and Red seas.

It is home to one of the most active al-Qaida branches, which has been linked to several nearly successful attacks on U.S. targets, including the plot to bomb a Detroit-bound airliner in December 2009.

The group also put sophisticated bombs into U.S.addressed parcels that made it onto cargo flights.

Shelter director candidate visits

By Paul Koepp Special to the Journal-World

The frontrunner to take the helm at the Lawrence Humane Society met with shelter volunteers and community members Wednesday at The Oread, 1200 Oread Ave. It was a chance for Dori Villalon, a seasoned veteran of animal shelters

across the country, to offer her vision for an institution that was recently shaken by the suspension and subsequent resignation of its longtime director.

“She’s our top candidate at this point,” said Emily Peterson, president of the society’s board of directors, adding that Villalon’s personality makes her the “right fit” for Lawrence

during a period of transition for the shelter.

Over drinks and hors d’oeuvres, volunteers pressed Villalon on her fundraising abilities and stance on putting down animals. Some expressed concern over space issues, a perceived lack of transparency and Please see SHELTER, page 5A Villalon

Arrests after fatal raid roil relations Pakistan has arrested informants who helped the U.S. zero in on Osama bin Laden, U.S. and Pakistani sources said Wednesday in the latest damaging repercussion from the fatal raid that angered and embarrassed Pakistanis as much as it thrilled Americans.

Authorities in Pakistan also have failed to expedite the entry of CIA officers into the country, despite agreeing two weeks ago to form a new joint intelligence-sharing team to hunt al-Qaida, two senior U.S. officials told The Associated Press. The joint team was intended to rebuild trust on both sides that was badly damaged by fallout from the May 2 raid deep inside Pakistan.

Pakistan considers the raid a violation of its sovereignty and is incensed that the U.S. withheld plans from its nominal ally for fear that the Pakistanis would tip off bin Laden. Many Pakistanis are angry with their own Army — the country’s pre-eminent institution — for failing to intercept the U.S. Navy SEALs who carried out the raid.

Officials in Pakistan deny arresting informants and insist their government is cooperating to issue visas for U.S. intelligence officers, but they provide no timeframe.

They in turn complain that the U.S. has shared very little intelligence with them from the bin Laden operation.

Boehner has fewer millions than Pelosi New House Speaker John Boehner doesn’t have as many millions as his predecessor, Nancy Pelosi, but like many new committee chairmen and other leaders, he has holdings in companies that have major financial stakes in the actions of Congress.

For Boehner, that includes a portfolio of stocks in oil companies, financial firms, communication companies and pharmaceuticals. Holdings among other lawmakers include farmland, real estate and investments in high tech companies.

None of this is violates congressional ethics rules.

The rules state that members can’t use their official positions for personal gain and limits to $26,100 what they can earn as a director of a business or for actual work performed outside Congress. They, however, do not limit personal investments, a source of considerable wealth for many lawmakers.

Boehner, a Republican and son of an Ohio bar owner, derives much of his nest egg from his career as a small businessman before coming to Congress more than two decades ago, said his spokesman, Michael Steel, “Boehner’s day-to-day investment decisions are made by a professional financial adviser. He is not consulted on individual transactions,” Steel said.

U.S. births down for 3rd year U.S. births apparently have declined for a third year in a row, probably because of the weak economy.

Births had been on the rise for years, and the number hit an all-time high of more than 4.3 million in 2007.

But the count has been dropping since then. Last year, it fell 3 percent to slightly more than 4 million births, according to preliminary figures released Wednesday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

It’s possible the decline is leveling off: The falling birth rate seemed to bottom out in October, November and December. However, it’s too early to say whether that marks an end to the trend, said Paul Sutton, a CDC demographer who was the report’s lead author.

The police department and city will have a public retirement reception from 10:30 a.m. to noon Friday in the jury assembly room in the basement of the Lawrence Douglas County Judicial and Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St.

Almost left the profession As Urbanek reflected on his career this week he said he almost left the profession about one year after he was hired as a Lawrence officer in 1985. He had an opportunity to work for the U.S. Postal Ser-

vice, but he said he decided to stay based on his comfort with other officers and his interest in day-to-day work.

He grew up in Topeka, graduated from Washburn University with a business degree and eventually worked for the Kansas Highway Patrol before beating out about 100 applicants for a Lawrence officer job.

He grew into the career, although he hadn’t thought about working in law enforcement growing up.

“When I was a kid it never entered my mind to ever end up being a cop. I wanted to be a cowboy,” said Urbanek, who in retirement plans to work on Please see OFFICER, page 5A

O L A T H E — Kansas Bioscience Authority will consider up to $29.7 million in new investments in the upcoming fiscal year, according to a plan approved by its executive committee on Wednesday.

The plan includes about $20 million for commercialization projects and $9.7 million for research and development.

David Vranicar, the authority’s interim president and CEO, said the total available amount for investments fell slightly from last year’s total, when about $36 million was spent on investments.

That’s partially because of caps on state funding for the authority and partially because of the authority’s judgments on the appropriate amount of funding.

Vranicar said the authority intends to make the plan available to the public in the coming days.

“There is a lot of activity under way,” he said. “We continue to see a lot of interesting companies and innovations.”

The executive committee made a few cosmetic changes to the wording in the plan before it was released but made no major changes when it discussed the plan in open session Wednesday.

The authority’s priorities listed in the plan are similar to those in previous years. It hopes to: ● Provide business assistance and strategic investments to help Kansas bioscience companies start up and grow. ● Support Kansas University’s application to achieve National Cancer Institute designation. ● Attract additional eminent and rising-star scholars to the state. ● Continue to support the state’s efforts to secure federal appropriations for the construction of the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility in Manhattan. ● Increase commercialization of new technology by linking industry and academia in established centers of innovation.

Father, son killed in skid loader accident

EPA regional director to speak at library

Two Topeka residents, a father and young son, died in an accident involving a skid loader Tuesday evening on the west side of Perry Lake about 6 miles east of Meriden.

According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, the piece of construction equipment, a 1980 Case skid loader, tipped forward, ejected both occupants and rolled over. The accident report identified the two victims as Michael A. Fawl, 28, and Michael H. Fawl, 5.

The man was taken to a Topeka hospital where he later died, while the boy was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the report.

The accident occurred on West Shore Road North, which is just west of Yacht Club Drive.

Neither crash victim wore a seat belt.

Karl Brooks, regional director of the Environmental Protection Agency, will speak Saturday in Lawrence.

The Douglas County Democratic Committee is putting on the event, which will take place at 10 a.m. at Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vt. Brooks, who was an associate professor of history and environmental studies at Kansas University before his appointment, will give a talk titled “Confronting Environmental Challenges Today.”

The EPA’s Region 7 includes Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and nine tribal nations. Among the EPA’s responsibilities is enforcing the Clean Air and Clean Water acts.

On Saturday, Brooks will discuss where the nation is on the road to a clean environment and explain the everyday challenges of implementing environmental laws. He also will take questions about his work.

Man convicted of attempted solicitation Laura Moore, library employee, Liberty, Mo. “Cleaning the bathrooms.”

John Berry, customer service representative, Redwood City, Calif.

“Scooping the cat box.”

A 38-year-old Lawrence man was convicted of attempted aggravated indecent solicitation of a child Wednesday morning after entering a plea in the case, Douglas County prosecutors said.

Lawrence police had arrested Alejandro Gutierrez Trevino on April 7 after a family member accused him one night earlier of making an indecent solicitation for a 12-year-old girl to commit a sex act.

Police and prosecutors alleged the offense occurred in the 1300 block of Prospect Avenue in east Lawrence.

District Judge Kay Huff is scheduled to sentence Trevino on Aug. 2. According to Kansas sentencing guidelines, he could face 11 months to 34 months in prison, but he could likely qualify for probation if he has no significant criminal history.

ON THE RECORD

A speaking performance at the Kansas Capitol on Saturday will honor Kansan artist John Steuart Curry, who painted two murals in the Capitol.

Actor and historian Don Lambert will portray Curry at 10 a.m. in the House chamber, basing his performance on friendships with the artist’s widow, son-in-law, brother and sister.

Curry’s family donated works of his art to the Kansas Historical Society, Kansas University’s Spencer Museum of Art and Kansas State University’s Beach Museum of Art. A classmate of Curry’s father, a KU graduate, acted as a patron for Curry and served on a commission that brought

• Lawrence police arrested a 23-year-old Lawrence man accused of stealing his ex-girlfriend’s car keys as she was downtown early Wednesday morning, but he was later released from jail after no charges were filed Wednesday.

Sgt. Matt Sarna, a police spokesman, said a 20-year-old Lawrence woman alleged the suspect had forcibly grabbed her keys out of her hand while she was standing in the sidewalk about 12:45 a.m.

Wednesday in the 900 block of Massachusetts Street.

Sarna said police later found the suspect and took him to the Douglas County Jail on a robbery charge pending a decision about formal charges. Police identified the suspect as an exboyfriend of the woman.

According to jail records, the man was later released because prosecutors in the district attorney’s office did not file formal charges. Cheryl Wright, a district attorney’s office spokeswoman, said charges weren’t filed Wednesday and that the case will be under review.

IRS revokes tax-exempt status of nonprofits

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

ONLINE: See two databases of Lawrence and state cases at LJWorld.com

The Internal Revenue Service has revoked the taxexempt status of more than 100 Lawrence nonprofits who failed to file the proper paperwork for the past three years, according to recently released IRS documents.

But some of the Lawrence nonprofits on the list had valid reasons for not filing documents or had recently filed the correct forms.

The national list has more than 300,000 groups and shows nearly 4,000 in Kansas.

IRS spokesman Michael Devine, said the list was released after the agency sent more than a million letters to nonprofits warning about a pending revocation of taxexempt status. A 2006 change in the tax law mandated that all nonprofits file some sort of documentation with the IRS, so some groups that had never been required to file are now obligated to do so.

Organizations that failed to file for 2007, 2008 and 2009 ended up on the list, he said.

Nonprofits on the list can still function, but losing taxexempt status means some would be required to now pay taxes, and donors might not be able to claim deductions for funds given to such agencies, Devine said.

LAWRENCE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL

New board member a familiar face

By Jane Stevens jstevens@ljworld.com

At Wednesday morning’s Lawrence Memorial Hospital Board of Trustees monthly meeting, a new board member joined, an old board member left, the plans for the kitchen remodel were unveiled, the hospital’s benefits to the community in 2010 were reviewed, and, in reaction to the devastating tornado that destroyed a hospital in Joplin, the staff discussed what would happen should a tornado hit LMH. And consultant David Schuh, with Larson Allen, went into great detail about yet another aspect of Chestnut health care reform. His presentation is part of the hospital board’s long-term effort to prepare for the big changes anticipated as a result of the U.S. Affordable Health Care Act, said Janice Early, director of community relations.

Larson Allen — a group of accountants, consultants and advisers — helped the hospital with its long-range financial planning and is now continuing with preparing for the changes sure to come in 2014, when the bulk of the act’s mandates go into effect.

Rob Chestnut, former

Lawrence mayor, is the new board member. He was voted in Tuesday night, and this was his first meeting.

Because employees can’t be board members, this was the last board meeting for Dr. Greg Schnose, whose Internal Medicine Group was purchased by LMH.

Kitchen remodel The kitchen remodel is scheduled to begin July 5. The kitchen and dining room will close on July 15 for the sixmonth remodel. A 40-foot by 40-foot kitchen trailer will be hauled in next week to serve 300 patient meals a day. It will take three days to set up, said LMH vice president Jeff Novorr, and the kitchen staff will do some test runs to make sure everything works before they close the kitchen and switch over to the temporary service.

For staff and visitors, the hospital has arranged meals from the Lawrence Originals restaurant group. So far, nine Lawrence restaurants have signed up to sell meals on a rotating schedule. Each day, two restaurants will be responsible for 500 lunches and 100 dinners.

“We’ve been working with them to keep the cost to five dollars per meal,” said Novorr.

The restaurants will also cater the hospital’s special events.

Tornado preparedness After the tornado destroyed a Joplin hospital, Gene Meyer, LMH chief executive officer, sent an email to Dana Hale, vice president of nursing, to ask: Are we prepared?

Yes, said Hale, and related the recent experience, before the Joplin tornado, when Lawrence came under a tornado warning and sirens went off in parts of town.

When the staff was given the word, they followed an emergency plan, which they had used in practice drills.

They drew curtains and blinds across windows. They moved patients to interior hallways and conference rooms or below ground. Elevators were stopped and secured so that no one could use them.

During severe weather, a nursing supervisor keeps track of the storms and where the warnings are to determine how and when the hospital staff should react, said Early.

“That’s what Joplin did, too,” she said. “They had five minutes’ warning.”

The biggest challenge are the critical care patients in the ICU, where the Joplin hospital had deaths. “Patients on ventilators can’t really be moved far,” said Hale. They were scooted as far away from windows as possible and covered with pillows and blankets to protect them from any flying debris.

Hale said that based on an email she received from a nurse at the Joplin hospital, she was now advising LMH nurses to grab a wallet or purse and shoes for each patient they move.

Novorr described how if a hospital is damaged by a tornado or earthquake, the event triggers an automated response from area hospitals, which provide information on the number of beds available.

Edgerton man faces trial for alleged child sex crimes A Douglas County judge ordered a 45-year-old Edgerton man to face a trial later this year on seven child sex-crime charges involving a 5-year-old girl and a 6-year-old girl.

District Judge Peggy Kittel made the ruling Tuesday afternoon after hearing evidence in a preliminary hearing that was continued from April.

rates of euthanasia at the shelter.

Villalon said she always tries to “exhaust every possible resource before euthanizing an animal.”

“As an open-door shelter, it’s always a challenge because you don’t know what’s going to come in that door,” she said.

In an interview, she added, “The ultimate goal is we want to save as many lives as possible and always be increasing that number.”

The shelter, 1805 E. 19th St., is currently waiving all adoption fees for cats in an effort to relieve overcrowding. It takes in about 7,500 animals each year.

Villalon said the society can better use its website to get out the message that despite almost $300,000 in annual funding from the city and Douglas County, the shelter depends on contributions from the community.

his rural Lawrence property, where he lives with his wife, Kerrie Urbanek.

But now he’s seen many changes brought on after more than 30 years working in law enforcement. Urbanek served six years as a patrol officer, including more than a year working in the drug investigation unit before he was promoted to sergeant in 1991. After stints on patrol and with the department’s training unit, he was promoted to lieutenant and later captain by Chief Ron Olin, who retired last fall.

For the past year he’s been in charge of the department’s information technology division, but he’s perhaps best known for serving more than 10 years before as a patrol supervisor.

The mother of the 6-yearold girl testified in April that she saw her daughter touching the groin area of the suspect in her family’s backyard last year.

The 5-year-old is the daughter of her boyfriend, who had often worked in construction with the suspect.

Douglas County Sheriff’s officers testified the two girls

“

— Dori Villalon, a candidate to take over as the new director for the Lawrence Humane Society shelter it certainly can’t be just the board,” she said.

Major corporate gifts and long-term pledges are needed alongside the annual donations that many community members already make, she said.

Former city manager Mike Wildgen has been interim director since Midge Grinstead resigned in March in the wake of a controversy over employees’ overtime pay.

The board placed Grinstead on administrative leave for 28 days last fall for unspecified personnel reasons. In February, three months after she returned, the shelter announced it would give workers $10,000 in back pay.

‘A genuine person’ The profession has changed over nearly 30 years, especially with advancements in technology, but Urbanek said it was still important today for officers to try to establish a rapport with people when they respond to a call, no matter what it is.

“Every dealing that you have with anybody is very important, and it always has been,” he said.

His longtime colleagues say Urbanek’s interactions with the public helped make him a successful officer.

“His demeanor and the way he treats people, he’s a genuine person. He’s going to be sorely missed,” said Capt.

Mike Pattrick, who supervises the department’s detectives.

Khatib said Urbanek’s influence is all over the department, including being an architect of the recent law enforcement responses to

board’s meeting the previous night, Villalon sought to reassure volunteers and board members about the shelter’s direction.

She met with staff at the shelter earlier Wednesday and said she was encouraged by what she saw.

“This is a new Humane Society,” she said. “It’s a new time at the Lawrence Humane Society, so let’s start fresh from there.”

Villalon was most recently vice president of animal protection at the American Humane Association. Before that, she directed shelters in San Francisco, Cleveland and Boulder, Colo. She earned a bachelor’s degree in animal welfare management from Sonoma State University in California.

Peterson said the board’s search committee picked one other finalist, but that candidate has not yet been invited to Lawrence. The board has not yet made an offer to Villalon.

As director, Grinstead was paid a salary of $50,000.

Final Four celebrations downtown in the last decade, including the major celebrations where in 2008 when Kansas University won the national championship and interactions between officers and the public were generally positive with no major incidents.

Urbanek may not have grown up wanting to patrol the streets, but he says now he made the right choice.

“The most misunderstood aspect of law enforcement is that we are just people. We have hopes and fears just like everybody else, and we go out every day and deal with other people, who have problems.

We help them to the extent we can,” he said. “This job is obviously not for everyone, but I still believe after all these years it’s a very honorable profession.”

Lego CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

While the projects range from large to small, and fantastic to realistic, they share a common foundation: Their creators’ skill assembling some of the 3,900 different molded-plastic elements — bricks, doors, figures, trees, platforms — that have made Lego the world’s fourthlargest toy company, with 485 billion different pieces produced since the late 1950s.

George Reynolds, a 52year-old unit secretary at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, entered one of his finest works: A near-to-scale model of St. Luke AME Church, 900 N.Y. Just like the real church, his Lego model has stainedglass windows, two air conditioners out back, and seating for 125 inside — even if Darth Vader is in his congregation, the piano player isn’t a piano player, and the church choir actually is made up of basketball players.

“I thought, ‘Everybody needs a little bit of Jesus,’ so I put everybody in there,” said Reynolds, who has a room in his Lawrence home dedicated to Legos, which he’s been collecting and building with since 1965. “I was going to put Chewbacca in there, but he’s too big.”

W I C H I T A — A judge who decided against ordering an anti-abortion activist to stay away from an abortion doctor he allegedly threatened now must decide whether to throw out a lawsuit the U.S. Justice Department f iled against the activist.

U. S . D i s t r i c t Ju d ge J. Thomas Marten is weighing whether to toss the lawsuit a ga i n s t A n ge l D i l l a rd , which the department filed under a federal law aimed at protecting access to abortion services. The government contends the 44-yearold Valley Center woman sent a threatening letter to Dr. Mila Means, a Wichita doctor who is training to offer abortion services at her practice.

Dillard wrote a rambling letter in January saying thousands of people from across the United States were looking into Means’ background: “They will know your habits and routines. They know where you shop, who your friends are, what you drive, where you live. You will be checking under your car every day — because maybe today is the day someone places an explosive under it.”

Marten, calling the First Amendment the “absolute bedrock of this country’s freedom,” denied in April the government’s request for a preliminary injunction seeking to keep Dillard at least 250 feet away from the doctor. He said at the time that although Dillard’s letter was clearly meant to intimidate Means, it did not constitute a “true threat.”

The judge also ordered both sides to present written briefs before he sets a hearing on a defense request to dismiss the lawsuit, which was filed by the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act. A hearing date has not yet been set.

The last of those court pleadings was filed late Tuesday night — setting the stage for a courtroom showdown on the limits of First Amendment protections that will decide whether the Justice Department’s civil complaint survives.

Dillard’s defense attorney, Donald McKinney, argued in his filing that in order to comply with First Amendment safeguards the government must show that the speech consisted of more than intimidation and that

This weekend, Lawrence’s Youth Sports Complex will play host to a fast-paced competition featuring flying discs and dogs running after them.

It’s the first-ever Land of Oz Disc Dog Championships, an event sponsored by a disc dog club from the Kansas City area.

Six events will test dogs and their owners on speed and accuracy. One example features four circles marked on a f ield. Owners must throw a disc to their dogs so they can catch it inside a circle.

the speaker intended to inflict bodily harm, rather than cause “merely anxiety or fear.”

“Angel Dillard is entitled to First Amendment protection,” McKinney wrote. “She has already paid dearly to defend herself from the government’s onslaught. The First Amendment should be eroded no further.”

The government contends Dillard’s speech is not protected by the First Amendment, arguing in a court document that the reference to explosives under the doctor’s car is impossible to downplay.

“It is the crux of the threat and presents a truly frightening image, and any attempt to minimize its importance as Defendant does is simply to ignore reality,” the Justice Department wrote. “Moreover, Defendant cannot hide her threat behind the guise of political statements.”

“This is her fun job,” she said. “Playing with your dog is just a blast.”

Registration for the event begins about 8:45 a.m. Saturday at the soccer fields at Lawrence’s Youth Sports Complex, 4911 W. 27th St. The event, which is free and open to the public, will begin at 9:30 a.m.

While some seating will be available, Wilhelm suggested spectators bring lawn chairs to watch the event.

Pre-registration is not required, and the competition features a novice category for beginners, Wilhelm said. She said the club hopes to make the event an annual one.

Tony Burnett, vice president and treasurer of the Kansas City Disc Dogs club,

said that the activity is growing in popularity. The Kansas City club has grown from about four members to more than 30 in the last five years.

“We seem to be doing something right,” he said.

“We have lots of new members joining the club.”

Commissioners also approved a petition to set up a benefit district for the Rock Creek Cemetery, 755 East 250 Road in Marion Township.

Taxes for those living in the district would be raised approximately $6 for every $1,000 paid. The funds would be used to help maintain the cemetery. People living in the district will have to elect a board before a mill levy can be placed on the property.

The idea for the district, which has been in the works for more than two years, garnered petition signatures from between 70 and 80 percent of the affected residents.

Roles of American dads diverging

By Hope Yen Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — Nearly half of American dads under 45 this Father’s Day say they have at least one kid who was born out of wedlock. And the share of fathers living apart from children is more than double what it was not so long ago.

In encouraging news, though, among married fathers, children are said to be getting more attention from both parents at home than ever before.

A Pew Research Center report highlights the changing roles of parents as U.S. marriage rates and traditional family households fall to historic lows.

For example, college-educated men who tend to marry and get better jobs are more involved with their children than lesser-skilled men struggling to get by.

“When a father can’t provide monetarily for his offspring, he often becomes estranged,” said Beth Latshaw, an assistant sociology professor at Appalachian State University, who researches changing paternal roles. She pointed to an economic advantage for college graduates hired at companies with better benefits and familyfriendly policies, contrasted with the situation for the larger ranks of low-wage workers.

“As a result, many women now raise children outside of marriage or without a father figure,” Latshaw said.

Pew’s survey and analysis of government data, released Wednesday, found that more than one in four fathers — or 27 percent — with kids 18 or younger live away from at least one of their children. That number is more than double the share of fathers who lived apart from their kids in 1960.

On the other hand, married fathers who live with their children are devoting more time helping their wives with caregiving at home, a task once

seen almost exclusively as a woman’s duty. Such fathers on average now spend about 6.5 hours a week on child care, which include playing, helping kids with homework or taking them to activities. That’s up from 2.6 hours in the 1960s.

The 6.5 hours is still just half the amount of time mothers spend per week. Still, it is a gap that is narrowing; in the 1960s, fathers put in onefourth the time mothers did.

“Father’s Day reminds us parents that we have no more solemn obligation than to care for our children. But far too many young people in America grow up without their dads, and our families and communities are challenged as a result,” President Barack Obama said Wednesday in calling for fathers to be more involved.

Next Sunday is Father’s Day. Obama has often reminded Americans how his father left his family when the future president was a small child, describing a “hole in a child’s life that no government can fill.” The Health and Human Services Department in conjunction with the Ad Council is now running public service advertisements this week urging fathers to “Take Time to Be a Dad Today,” and the administration next week is expected to announce new support for local fatherhood programs.

The ads this year focus on Hispanic fathers and military dads sharing small moments with their children.

The Pew study, entitled “A Tale of Two Fathers,” found sharp differences based on race and education. Black and Hispanic fathers were much more likely to have children out of wedlock, at 72 percent and 59 percent, respectively, compared to 37 percent for white men. Among fathers with at least a bachelor’s degree, only 13 percent had children outside marriage, compared to 51 percent of those with high school diplomas and 65 percent of those who didn’t finish high school.

● Internet radio station Pandora Media’s IPO struck the right chord with investors Wednesday despite the static in the overall stock market.

Pandora’s stock surged by as much 63 percent in their market debut before pulling back later in the session. The shares closed at $17.42, still a decent gain amid the market’s broader decline. It marked a 9 percent increase from Pandora’s initial public offering price of $16 and a nearly six-fold increase from what Pandora’s own board thought the stock was worth just six months ago.

The performance shows the recent market slump hasn’t dampened the enthusiasm investors have for new stock offerings from rapidly growing Internet services.

You’re sitting in a freshly drywalled house, drinking coffee from a plastic foam cup and talking on a cellphone. Which of these is most likely to be a cancer risk?

It might be the sitting, especially if you do that a lot.

Despite all the recent news about possible cancer risks from cellphones, coffee, styrene and formaldehyde in building materials, most of us probably face little if any danger from these things with ordinary use, health experts say. Inactivity and obesity may pose a greater cancer risk than chemicals for some people.

“We are being bomHEALTH barded” with messages about the dangers posed by common things in our lives, yet most exposures “are not at a level that are going to cause cancer,” said Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, the American Cancer Society’s deputy chief medical officer.

Linda Birnbaum agrees.

She is a toxicologist who heads the government agency that just declared styrene, an ingredient in fiberglass boats and Styrofoam, a likely cancer risk.

“Let me put your mind at ease right away about Styrofoam,” she said. Levels of styrene that leach from food containers “are hundreds if not thousands of times lower than have occurred in the occupational setting,” where the chemical in vapor form poses a possible risk to workers. “In finished products, certainly styrene is not an issue,” and exposure to it from riding in a boat “is infinitesimal,” she said.

Carcinogens are things that can cause cancer, but that label doesn’t mean that they will or that they pose a risk to anyone exposed to them in any amount at any time.

They have been in the

As bank fees escalate, prepaid cards go mainstream

By Pallavi Gogoi Associated Press Writer

Rising fees have chased millions of people away from banks and into prepaid debit cards.

In just a handful of years, prepaid cards have become the fastest growing payment method in the U.S. Just this week, American Express became the first mainstream financial company to offer a prepaid card.

But the cards have problems of their own. Complex fee schedules. Few of the consumer protections afforded to bank and credit card customers. No ability to build credit history.

Consumer advocates are raising concerns and demanding more oversight and at least one state is investigating prepaid card issuers.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is expected to step up oversight of the industry when it launches in July.

“People are using prepaid cards as checking accounts and the government ought to regulate it similarly,” says Suzanne Martindale, staff attorney for Consumers Union, a nonprofit advocacy group that is concerned about unfair prepaid card fees.

Even so, Americans spent $140 billion using prepaid cards in 2009, according to the latest data available from the Federal Reserve. That’s a 21.5 percent increase each year over four years. The amount

of money loaded onto the cards is expected to reach $552 billion in 2012 from $330 million three years ago, according to the Mercator Advisory Group, a research firm.

Prepaid cards have gone mainstream by catering to the ranks of the unbanked — people who don’t have a bank account. Nearly one in five Americans are unbanked, a 2009 government report found, and the number is growing.

Prepaid cards can be used to pay bills or buy merchandise in the same places a bank-issued debit card can be used. So it’s no wonder prepaid is the fastest growing method of payment over the last five years.

This year, the IRS issued tax refunds on prepaid cards to about 600,000 bank accountfree households. Social security payments for the unbanked have been loaded onto prepaid cards since 2008. And a growing number of small companies pay employees using the cards. On Tuesday, American Express joined the fray. The card giant launched a prepaid card in an effort to expand its customer base.

Most new prepaid card customers are seeking refuge from new and escalating fees, consumer advocates say. Among them: $3 to print an account summary at a Bank of America ATM; $12 a month for checking accounts with a balances below $1,500 at Chase and Bank of America; overdraft fees of $35 that most banks charge.

A MAN USES A CELLPHONE Tuesday in Oakland, Calif.

Despite all the recent news about possible cancer risks from cellphones, coffee, styrene and formaldehyde in building materials, most people face little if any danger from these things, health experts say. news because two groups that periodically convene scientists to decide whether something is a carcinogen issued new reports.

Last month, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, part of the World Health Organization, said there is a possibility cellphones raise the risk of brain tumors.

“The operative word is ‘possibility,”’ said Lichtenfeld, who among others has pointed out the thin evidence for this and the fact that cancer rates have not risen since cellphones came out.

Last week, the National Toxicology Program, part of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences — both of which Birnbaum heads — issued its report.

It adds to the list of known carcinogens formaldehyde, which is in building materials and some hair-straightening products, though Birnbaum said on-the-job exposure is the main concern. The list also adds a plant substance in some “natural” arthritis remedies, aristolochic acid.

Six other things were dubbed “reasonably anticipated” to be carcinogens, including

styrene and another herbal medicine ingredient, riddelliine (rih-DELL-een).

Since 1971, the international cancer agency has evaluated more than 900 substances.

Just over 100 have been deemed carcinogens, 59 are called probable carcinogens, and 266 others are possible ones.

In this last category of possibles — besides the electromagnetic energy from cellphones — are coffee, engine exhaust and talc-based body powder.

Talc in its natural form may contain asbestos, though products sold for home use since the 1970s have been asbestos-free. Again, most risk is thought to involve occupational or unusual

exposure to natural talc.

The evidence on coffee has gone back and forth for years, with no clear sign of danger and some suggestions of benefit.

However, known carcinogens include alcoholic beverages, estrogen treatments for menopause symptoms, birth control pills, certain viruses and parasites, and even some drugs used to treat cancer, such as cyclophosphamide and tamoxifen.

“Most people would probably be shocked to see the number of things they interact with every day” on these lists, Lichtenfeld said.

Here’s the problem: The agencies that pass judgment on a carcinogen don’t regulate it or determine what levels or routes of exposure are a concern and for whom.

“People immediately assume it’s going to cause cancer at any exposure level, and that’s simply not true,” said A. Wallace Hayes, editor of the scientific journal Food and Chemical Toxicology, and an industry consultant.

The rule is “RITE” — Risk Is equal to Toxicity times Exposure — and “they’ve left out half of the equation” by not saying how much exposure is a concern, Hayes said.

“The organizations that list these substances as possibly carcinogenic have to be conservative. That means if there’s any reasonable evidence, way before it’s a sure thing, they have to say, ‘Let’s be cautious.’ That’s their job — to raise the flag,” said David Ropeik, a consultant and author of “How Risky Is It Really? Why Our Fears Don’t Always Match the Facts.”

Dream home turns out to be snake den

By Jessie L. Bonner

R E X B U R G , I D A H O — They slithered behind the walls at night and released foulsmelling musk into the drinking water. And they were so numerous that Ben Sessions once killed 42 in a single day.

Shortly after buying their dream home, Sessions and his wife discovered it was infested with thousands of garter snakes. For the next three months, their growing family lived as if in a horror movie. More than a year after they abandoned the property, the home briefly went back on the market, and they fear it could someday attract another unsuspecting buyer.

The five-bedroom house stands on nearly two pastoral acres in rural Idaho, about 125 miles southwest of Yellowstone National Park. Priced at less than $180,000, it seemed like a steal.

But the young couple soon learned they would be sharing the home with reptiles at least two feet long that had crawled into seemingly every crevice.

Associated Press Writers

THE RESIDENCE NEAR REXBURG, IDAHO, now known locally as “The Snake House,” is shown above on June 9. The five-bedroom house on a nearly 2-acre lot in the eastern Idaho countryside seemed like a steal at $178,500. But it wasn’t long before Ben and Amber Sessions realized it was infested with hundreds upon hundreds of garter snakes. AT LEFT, BEN SESSIONS POINTS to a note on a real estate document that says the home he and his wife had purchased in 2009 was free of snakes.

snakes were real.

“I felt bad,” said Dustin Chambers, a neighbor. “By the time we knew someone had bought it, they were already moving in. It was too late.”

Among locals, the property is known simply as the “snake house,” he added.

‘Satan’s lair’ The pests were impossible to escape no matter the hour of the day.

At night, the Sessions would lie awake and listen to slithering inside the walls. During the day, the family often had to eat out because their well water smelled like the musk released by the snakes as a warning to predators.

But because of the paperwork they had signed, the couple had little recourse when they decided to flee the home. They filed for bankruptcy, and the bank foreclosed on the house.

The Sessions left in December 2009, the day after their daughter was born and just three months after moving in.

“We’re not going to pay for a house full of snakes,” Sessions said.

His wife, Amber, said she felt like their family was starting to fall apart.

“It was just so stressful,” she said. “It felt like we were living in Satan’s lair. That’s the only way to really explain it.”

House sale ‘not right’ Several months ago, the house briefly went back on the market.

Now owned by JP Morgan Chase, it was listed at $114,900 in December, according to Zillow.com, a real estate data firm. That price fell to $109,200 in January.

Then, the Animal Planet network featured the Sessions’ story in its “Infested” series.

The listing was removed, and it has stayed off the market while Chase decides what to do with it.

A Rexburg real estate company that was hired to sell the house referred all questions to a Chase spokeswoman in Seattle.

Darcy Donahoe-Wilmot did not return repeated phone calls from The Associated Press. But she told a business columnist for Dow Jones Newswires that the bank had contracted to have the snakes trapped and released elsewhere.

Sessions said that he has been diagnosed with snakerelated post-traumatic stress disorder and that the house should be condemned.

“It’s not right to continue to sell this home,” Sessions said.

He and his wife said they still have nightmares and have not recovered financially.

White House defends Libya mission

By Julie Pace Associated Press Writer

W A S H I N G T O N — Defying congressional criticism, the White House insisted Wednesday that President Barack Obama has the authority to continue U.S. military action in Libya even without authorization from lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

In a detailed, 32-page report to Congress, the White House also put the cost of U.S. military operations in Libya at about $715 million, as of June 3, with the total increasing to $1.1 billion by early September.

It was the first time the administration has publically detailed its legal rationale for continuing the Libya campaign without receiving congressional authorization within the 60-day window set in the War Powers Resolution. Officials argued that because the U.S. has a limited, supporting role in the NATOled bombing campaign in Libya and American forces are not engaged in sustained fighting, the president is within his constitutional rights to direct the mission on his own.

“The president is of the view that the current U.S.

Gates: Afghanistan is not ‘war without end’

Garter snake den While setting up a chicken coop, Sessions lifted a piece of sheet metal and was startled to see a pair of snakes slither away. A few days later, he found more and soon started to collect dozens in buckets. At times, there were so many in the yard that the grass seemed to move.

If he rapped a stick against the roof overhang, he could hear dozens scatter, their scales sliding against the aluminum. After he removed some panels of siding, dozens of snakes popped out. When he made his way through the crawl space to investigate further, he found snakes everywhere.

That’s when he realized his family was probably living atop a garter snake den where the nonpoisonous reptiles congregate in the fall and winter.

Sessions quickly developed a daily snake-fighting routine. Before his pregnant wife and two small boys got out of bed, he would do a “morning sweep” through the house to make sure none of the snakes had gotten inside.

One day, his wife screamed from the laundry room, where she had almost stepped on one. He rushed in to find that she had jumped onto a counter.

“I was terrified she was going to miscarry,” he said.

When they bought the house, the Sessions signed a document that noted the snake infestation. They said they had been assured by their real estate agent that the snakes were just a story invented by the previous owners to leave their mortgage behind.

They soon learned that nearly everyone else in this tiny college town knew the

military operations in Libya are consistent with the War Powers Resolution and do not under that law require further congressional authorization because U.S. military operations are distinct from the kind of ‘hostilities’ contemplated by the resolution’s 60-day termination provision,” the White House said.

The administration’s defense of the Libya mission comes in response to a nonbinding House resolution passed this month that chastised Obama for failing to provide a “compelling rationale” for U.S. involvement in Libya.

The resolution gave the administration until Friday to respond to a series of questions on the mission, including the scope of U.S. military activity, the cost of the mission and its impact on other U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

But the report appeared to do little to quell congressional criticism. A spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said the White House was using “creative arguments” that raised additional questions.

Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., who has introduced a resolution similar to the House measure, said he was amazed

that the administration did not believe U.S. forces were facing “hostilities” in Libya, saying generals have told lawmakers otherwise in classified briefings.

“The way the administration handled this entire affair left people on both sides of the aisle very perplexed,” said Corker, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

Adding to the congressional pressure on Obama, a bipartisan group of 10 lawmakers on Wednesday sued the president for taking military action against Libya without war authorization from Congress. The lawmakers said Obama violated the Constitution in bypassing Congress and using international organizations like the United Nations and NATO to authorize military force.

While Obama did not seek congressional consent before ordering U.S. airstrikes against Moammar Gadhafi’s forces nearly three months ago, the White House maintained that the president is not in violation of the War Powers Resolution. Boehner sent Obama a letter this week stating that the 90-day window runs out on Sunday.

The home was probably built on top of a winter snake den or hibernaculum, where snakes gather in large numbers to hibernate, said Rob Cavallaro, a wildlife biologist with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game.

In the spring and summer, the reptiles fan out across the wilds of southeastern Idaho to feed and breed. But as the days get shorter and cooler, they return to the den in search of warmth.

WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Robert Gates on Wednesday bluntly rejected suggestions that Afghanistan is a “war without end,” defending the U.S. military operation amid fresh congressional pressure on President Barack Obama to withdraw a significant number of U.S. troops beginning next month.

Gates acknowledged the war fatigue throughout the country and on Capitol Hill as the Afghan conflict nears the decade mark with lives lost and billions Gates of dollars spent. But he argued that the United States and its NATO allies have made progress in building up Afghan security forces to prevent the al-Qaida terrorist network from a dangerous revival.

“I know people are frustrated. The country has been at war for 10 years. I know people are tired,” Gates told the Senate Appropriations defense subcommittee. “People also have to think in terms of stability and in terms of the potential of (al-Qaida) reconstitution. What’s the cost of failure?”

In the coming days, Obama will confer with Gates as well as senior military and administration officials and decide how many of the 100,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan to withdraw in the initial round of troop reductions. Several lawmakers are clamoring for significant cuts, citing the killing of Osama bin Laden and CIA Director Leon Panetta’s assessment that less than 100 al-Qaida members remain in Afghanistan.

Twenty-seven senators, Democrats and Republicans, sent a letter to Obama on Wednesday pressing for a

shift in Afghanistan strategy and major troop cuts.

“Given our successes, it is the right moment to initiate a sizable and sustained reduction in forces, with the goal of steadily redeploying all regular combat troops,” the senators wrote. “The costs of prolonging the war far outweigh the benefits. It is time for the United States to shift course in Afghanistan.”

Signing the letter was a fourth of the Senate, 25 Democrats and two freshman Republicans, Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky.

Gates insisted that the war is heading toward an end date of 2014 in a somewhat testy exchange with Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. “This is not a war without end,” Gates said. “Troops will be coming down during that period. The costs of these wars is coming down dramatically. The cost of these wars will drop between fiscal 2011 and 2012 by $40 billion and between ’12 and ’13 probably by several tens of billions of dollars more. I think the prospects of having a more stable Afghanistan in terms of a country that can defend itself ... I’m not talking about a Vermont democracy here.”

“Neither am I, Mr. Secretary, and you know that,” Leahy interrupted.

“I know,” Gates said, “but what I’m talking about is we are not in the business of nation building. What we are trying to do is build an Afghan national security forces to the point where they have the ability to defend that country and so that the Taliban and alQaida cannot reconstitute themselves in that country.”

Gates’ back-and-forth with Leady was an anomaly in what was likely his last congressional appearance after 4 1/2 years as Pentagon chief.

Gates is retiring June 30 and several senators praised Gates.

“This nation is truly in your debt for turning the tide in Iraq and Afghanistan,” said Sen. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii.

LAWRENCE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

Collaboration will make Lawrence better

By Tom Kern Lawrence Chamber of Commerce

About one year ago, I spent several weeks in an intensive Kansas Leadership Center training program that brought together people from communities across the state. The purpose of the program was to teach us how we can make progress on the daunting challenges that communities face.

The key concept I found most important in that course was “how we can work together” to help our

communities remain places we want to live, work and raise our families. I also learned that all of us have different operational styles and approach problem-solving in different ways. It is incumbent on us, as individuals or organizations, to understand our own style preference and recognize those of other community members. We can find opportunities to collaborate or we can choose conflict and confrontation.

Lately I’ve noticed that in working to resolve issues for the Lawrence community many of us – and I include the Chamber of Commerce in this generalization – are falling back into the conflict and confrontation model

when we address issues of interest to the broader community. Individuals and groups define their own position and objective on a community issue and develop a strategy to make their position the “right choice.” We put labels on anyone who disagrees or has a different perspective on the issue. If we are “right,” then they must be “wrong.”

We become defined by the position we take. We align ourselves with like-minded groups and individuals and strengthen our positions by discrediting those that disagree with us.

It’s an approach we see often in Washington DC, and I suspect many of us criticize elected of-

Monte Soukup, Leadership Lawrence Class of 2011

cer at Douglas County Bank, graduated from Leadership Lawrence this May. The long-time Lawrence resident said Leadership Lawrence opened her eyes to parts of town she hadn’t noticed before.

“It broadened my perspective about my town,” she said. “I’m a part of the activities taking place, the services offered. I understnad more, and I feel I can contribute more to the discussion on issues in Lawrence.”

Monte Soukup, Senior Vice President for Property Management at KU Endowment, also graduated this May. “It gave me an insight into all the great things that are happening in Lawrence, but also helped me understand some of the challenges the community faces,” he said.

New connections are also a major benefit of Leadership Lawrence, Jennings said.

“You make some great contacts, and I’ve made some great friends,” she said.

We spoke at each other, but not to each other. We did not engage in civil dialog among all concerned parties to find common ground or discuss a collaborative solution to the issue. We all were focused on promoting our own agenda and we forgot there are other more productive ways to resolve community issues.

As examples of choosing collaboration over confrontation, I would point to the development of the Oread Hotel and the recent location of the Berry Plastics warehouse project along Farmer’s Turnpike. These were complex, emotional issues for the community and yet we found a way to

Rep. Kevin Yoder Visits Lawrence

Eileen Hawley/Lawrence Chamber of Commerce

Conversation with a Congressman: Dale Willey, President of Dale Willey Automotive, chats with U.S. Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kansas) Friday, June 10. Rep. Yoder met with a group of 60 Lawrence business leaders and community members to discuss his constituents’ concerns. Hot topics included the impact of partisan politics on Congress’s ability to get work done and the impact new health insurance regulations will have on the business community.

The event was held in the Atrium at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

Lawrence Chamber of Commerce members will get a firsthand look at one of the fastest growing food trends in the nation when they visit three local agricultural facilities June 24.

That trend is the purchase of locally-grown food. During a closeup look at farming and local food production, Chamber members will visit Hoyland Farm, Pioneer Soybean Research Facility and Nunemaker-Ross’ Bismarck Gardens. People attending this event will roll up their sleeves and spend a casual but informative evening enjoying locally grown produce, homemade ice cream and grainfed beef while learning how local agri-business contributes to our economy.

According to Julie Mettenburg, coordinator for Our Local Food – Kaw River Valley, Kansans spend about $767 million annually on fruits and vegetables, $32 million of which is captured by Kansas farmers. Douglas County is home to more than 1,000 active farms occupying approximately 220,000 acres of pasture and cropland.

According to the 2007 agriculture census, the current 2011 value of soybeans, corn and wheat in Douglas County exceeds $44 million.

“The USDA predicts local food sales will continue its dramatic growth trend,” Mettenburg said.

“Consumers have shown a preference for buying local food products and you now can find locallygrown fruits and vegetables in big

Recent discussions concerning the environmental chapter of Horizon 2020 provide an excellent example of this process in work.

People or groups supporting the chapter were categorized by some as “tree huggers, anti-growth or anti-development.” On the other side, groups questioning the chapter or asking for more community input were characterized as “antienvironmental, Chamber types or pro-growth.” For several months, we engaged as a community in an often contentious back-and-forth on the intent and possible results

Lawrence appreciates the value of supporting its local agri-businesses, an appreciation that may be seen in the many seasonal offerings at local restaurants and the broad attendance at Farmer’s Markets.

The USDA predicts that directto-consumer sales, through venues such as Farmer’s Markets, will grow by more than 10 percent through the next year.

Chamber members are encouraged to sign up for an event that

promises to be enjoyable and educational, sampling locallygrown food as they learn about local farming in Kansas. Children are welcome to join their parents touring these local farms, and can bring their own fishing pole to try their luck at Bismarck Lake. The optional farm tour begins at 4 p.m. with the casual picnic mixer following at 5 p.m.

The Chamber thanks its sponsors Frontier Farm Credit and Boulevard Brewing Co. for their support of this agri-business mixer.

Lawrence Chamber of Commerce members now have a new tool that makes it easier than ever for them to do business with other local businesses.

The Chamber is introducing “ChamberBid,” an online system that allows members to request – and respond to – bids for products or services.

This member-to-member business service will go live in early July and provide another avenue for members to identify new business opportunities within the local community.

“We’re excited to introduce our members to the ChamberBid program,” said Cathy Lewis, Vice President of Membership. “We’re providing this service because we

As a community, I believe strongly that Lawrencians want to work together, collaboratively, to face the daunting challenges of balancing quality of life issues with the need for continued economic growth and prosperity. No doubt we will have a number of community issues to resolve over the next year that will test our community will. My hope is that we will also remember we have choices in how we address those challenges.

Like everyone else in the community, the Chamber needs to remember that too.

Education exodus The veteran Kansas teachers now leaving the field will be hard to replace.

F

or years, educational experts have been warning of the impending retirement of a generation of experienced public school teachers, but seeing some of those numbers on paper still is sobering.

A report released Tuesday by the Kansas Department of Education showed that more than 1,500 teachers retired in the 2010-11 school year. In the four previous years, retirements in the state had ranged between 1,000 and 1,100.

Kansas State Board of Education Chairman David Dennis, a Republican from Wichita, blamed the increase on continued low pay coupled with increased pension costs and fears that the state will move to a 401(k)-style retirement plan. As a public school teacher himself, Dennis probably has a pretty good read on the situation.

Budget cuts also have had an effect.

Statewide teaching positions were reduced by 350 slots this school year and 260 the year before. The previous three years, the reductions were 49, 21 and 7 respectively.

The number of teacher layoffs in the last two years amounts to more than belt-tightening. It’s a demoralizing comment on the importance lawmakers place on public education and classroom teachers.

It would be nice to think that school districts are trimming the least productive and effective members of their teaching and administrative staff to make a leaner and meaner organization. That probably isn’t the case. Many of the teachers who are retiring have many years of experience that will be lost. People who are retiring early or leaving teaching for some other reason probably are doing so because they feel underappreciated and overworked and believe they will be happier and more satisfied in another job.

It’s not much of a recommendation for a career that is one of society’s most important jobs. Even the state school board’s Dennis said, “If I was in college right now looking at what I want to do with the rest of my life, I am not sure I would choose teaching as a profession.”

Unfortunately, many young people considering their futures probably share that sentiment. Retirements and other pressures are pushing many highly qualified teachers out of our public schools. Unless society and government find better ways to support and reward good teachers, it’s hard to see who will replace them.

Republicans have Hispanic star in Texas WASHINGTON — For a conservative Texan seeking national office, it could hardly get better than this: In a recent 48-hour span, Ted Cruz, a candidate for next year’s Republican Senate nomination for the seat being vacated by Republican Kay Bailey Hutchison, was endorsed by the Club for Growth PAC, FreedomWorks PAC, talk radio host Mark Levin and Erick Erickson of RedState.com. And Cruz’s most conservative potential rival for the nomination decided to seek a House seat instead.

For conservatives seeking reinforcements for Washington’s toolimited number of limited-government constitutionalists, it can hardly get better than this: Before earning a Harvard law degree magna cum laude (and helping found the Harvard Latino Law Review) and clerking for Chief Justice William Rehnquist, Cruz’s senior thesis at Princeton — his thesis adviser was professor Robert George, one of contemporary conservatism’s intellectual pinups — was on the Constitution’s Ninth and 10th Amendments. Then as now, Cruz argued that these amendments, properly construed, would buttress the principle that powers not enumerated are not possessed by the federal government.

Utah’s freshman Sen. Mike Lee, who clerked for Justice Sam Alito, has endorsed Cruz. The national chairman of Cruz’s campaign is Ed Meese, the grand old man of Reagan administration alumni.

office anywhere, this story is as good as it gets: At age 14, Cruz’s father fought with rebels (including Fidel Castro) against Cuba’s dictator Fulgencio Batista. Captured and tortured, at 18 he escaped to America with $100 sewn in his underwear. He graduated from the University of Texas, met his wife — like him, a mathematician — with whom he founded a small business processing seismic data for the oil industry.

By the time Cruz was 13, he was winning speech contests sponsored by a Houston free enterprise group that gave contestants assigned readings by Frederic Bastiat, Friedrich Hayek and Ludwig von Mises. In his early teens he traveled around Texas, and out of state, giving speeches.

least 50 percent between 2000 and 2010. The four states with the largest Hispanic populations — California, Texas, Florida and New York — have 151 electoral votes.

One in five Americans lives in California or Texas, and Texas is for Republicans what California is for Democrats — the largest reliable source of electoral votes and campaign cash. In 2005, Texas became a majority-minority state; in five years Hispanics will be a plurality; in about two decades, immigration and fertility will make them a majority.

But, Cruz says, unlike California’s Hispanics, those in Texas “show a willingness to be a swing vote.” Furthermore, the three Hispanics elected to major offices in 2010 — Florida’s Sen. Marco Rubio, Nevada’s Gov. Brian Sandoval and New Mexico’s Gov. Susana Martinez — are Republicans.

“It took Jimmy Carter to give us Ronald Reagan,” says Cruz, who believes the reaction against Barack Obama will give the Republican Party a cadre of conservatives who take their bearings from constitutional law as it was before the New Deal judicial revolution attenuated limits on government. This cadre is arriving: Sens. Lee and Rubio were born seven days apart, and Cruz six months earlier.

The parties’ profiles are often drawn in the Senate. The Republican profile is becoming more Madisonian.

PUBLIC FORUM

OLD HOME TOWN From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for June 16, 1911: “When Charles Brown, band-master of the Lawrence Band, went up to Dick’s YEARS hall last night for the regular band pracAGO tice he left his bicycle in front of the IN 1911 building, but when he returned for it later in the evening it was gone. Evidently the two wheeled vehicle has charms for local thieves as several have been reported stolen in the past few weeks. It is getting extremely dangerous to leave a bicycle on the street any more without a pad lock. Mr. Brown is collector for the Home Telephone Company and the loss of his bicycle interferes very much with his business.”

At Princeton, he finished first in the 1992 U.S. National Debate Championship and North American Debate Championship.

As Texas’ solicitor general from 2003 to 2008, Cruz submitted 70 briefs to the U.S. Supreme Court and he has, so far, argued nine cases there. He favors school choice and personal investment accounts for a portion of individuals’ Social Security taxes. He supports the latter idea, with a bow to the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who said such accounts enable the doorman to build wealth the way the people in the penthouse do.

Regarding immigration, Cruz, 40, demands secure borders and opposes amnesty for illegal immigrants, but echoes Ronald Reagan’s praise of legal immigrants as “Americans by choice,” people who are “crazy enough” to risk everything in the fundamentally entrepreneurial act of immigrating. He believes Hispanics are — by reasons of faith, industriousness and patriotism — natural Republicans. He says the military enlistment rate is higher among them than among any other demographic, and he says an Austin businessman observed, “When was the last time you saw a Hispanic panhandler?”

The Republican future without Hispanic support would be bleak. Forty-seven percent of Americans under 18 are minorities, and the largest portion are Hispanics. One in six Americans is Hispanic. In 37 states, the Hispanic population increased at

To the editor: Have you ever been bumped from an airlines flight because they sold more tickets than they had seats?

Oh, they do usually make it up to you by offering you another flight and usually a voucher for a future flight. That seems fair but it still does not make any sense. How can they sell 205 tickets for a plane that holds 200? That is just wrong.

So does it make sense that Stouffer Place at Kansas University charges a single mother a $35 application fee in June 2011 then contacts her a week later to tell her that all of the units were “already assigned back in April 2011; thanks for your interest”? (And thanks for the $35.)

If all of the units were taken two months ago and they knew it, I feel this information should have been shared with the applicant before Stouffer accepted the $35 fee. It does not make any sense to me and I think it is just wrong, but maybe the Stouffer Place administration took lessons from their neighbors at the KU Athletics ticket departthat comes with it.

Racial inequities mark drug war Dear President Obama: Right after your election, somebody asked if I thought having a black president meant black people’s concerns would now receive attention at the executive level. I told them I expected the opposite.

There used to be a saying — only Nixon could go to China.

Meaning, of course, that only he, as a staunch anti-communist, had the credibility to make overtures to that nation without accusations of being soft on communism. By the inverse of that political calculus, I never expected that you, as a black man, would do much to address black issues.

And the limitations of your presidency where African-Americans are concerned have never been more obvious than they are this week.

On Friday it will be 40 years since the aforementioned President Nixon asked Congress for $155 million to combat a problem he said had “assumed the dimensions of a national emergency.”

Thus was born the War on Drugs.

Seven presidents later, the war grinds on. And if it has made even a dent in drug use, you could not prove it by me — nor, I would wager, by most observers.

Last week, the Global Commission on Drug Policy, a group of international leaders including Kofi Annan, the former secretarygeneral of the United Nations, issued a report that begins with this unambiguous declaration: “The global war on drugs has failed.”

BRIEFLY Board rejects plan to fingerprint educators

KDHE: Salina plant violates air standards

TOPEKA — The State Board of Education has rejected a proposal that would have required Kansas educators to pay a $50 fee and have their fingerprints kept on file.

The board voted 6-4 Tuesday to reject a requirement that some 40,000 educators who SCHOOLS got their licenses before 2002 would have to have their fingerprints on file with the Kansas Bureau of Investigation. The requirement would have applied only to licensed staff, not other school district employees.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reported that the proposal, if it had been also approved by the attorney general, would have provided instant notification to the state Department of Education if a licensed teacher had been arrested or entered into a diversion agreement for an offense that could lead to the loss of their teaching license.

SALINA — A Salina battery facility has been cited for violating federal air quality standards for lead.

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment said Wednesday that the Exide Technologies battery plant exceeded national air quality standards for lead emissions.

The company builds lead-acid batteries.

Monitoring by KDHE showed two instances when lead pollution exceeded the National Ambient Air Quality Standard.

John Mitchell, KDHE director of environment, said the department and Exide are working together to reduce lead emissions.

KDHE also said it would hold public meetings on air quality on June 28 at the Saline County Sheriff’s Office.

KDHE said it’s required to monitor air near facilities that emit more than one-half ton of lead per year, and the Exide plant is the only facility in Kansas that meets that level.

KANSAS MEN’S BASKETBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

2-iron suits Woodland just right Approaching lightning inspired Lee Trevino to utter one of golf’s most memorable quotes when he suggested it would be safe to keep playing as long as everyone used 1-irons.

“Even God can’t hit a 1-iron,” Trevino said.

The club, too hard to hit, pretty much has gone the way of the leisure suit, and the 2iron is becoming more and more rare by the day. Even a vast majority of the world’s greatest golfers prefer hybrid clubs to the 2-iron because they are easier to hit.

Former Kansas University golfer and Topeka native Gary Woodland carries a 2-iron, and it just might be the key club in his bag at the Congressional, site of the U.S. Open that kicks off today, one week after Woodland played 36 holes at Lawrence Country Club. Jon Zylstra was in the group with Woodland.

“I was most impressed with his 2-iron stinger off the tee that he hit out here,” Zylstra said.

Selling golf clubs out of the pro shop is among Zylstra’s duties as head pro at LCC, so when he sees a club that doesn’t look familiar to him, his curiosity is piqued.

“When he looked at the Titleist 2-irons, he picked that one out,” Zylstra said. “They told him it was designed for Davis Love, and Davis Love didn’t like it. Gary said he told them, ‘Well, I love it.’”

Zylstra quickly found out the 2-iron loves Woodland back.

“He hit it from a fairway bunker on No. 12 (at LCC), straight uphill, 256 yards to eight feet from the pin,” Zylstra said. “On No. 6, from the tips (a 406-yard hole), he hit it to just short of the 100-yard marker. A 2-iron!”

Zylstra said the club has “an extra-stiff shaft, and it’s just a rocket coming out there.”

Ross Randall, the man who recruited Woodland to KU as a transfer from Washburn University, where he played basketball, explained why Woodland prefers the 2-iron to a hybrid, or for that matter, any other club in his bag when hitting off the tee box.

“When he hits a hybrid, it goes too high and might even go too far,” Randall said. “He hits a 2 so he can control it and keep it down. He’s done with letting it rip. I told him a long time ago he would learn to do that. It’s nice to have that distance when you need it, but if you keep trying it, you’ll hit it out of bounds.”

Jason Seeman, a former KU golfer, an LCC member and the national sales manager for the Bushnell golf division, played with Woodland, Zylstra and a few others last Thursday. (Seeman and KU golf coach Kit Grove recently finished second, losing in a playoff, in the KGA four-ball tournament.)

Seeman, who also carries a 2iron, shared a Woodland tidbit that shows just how straight his head is screwed on these days.

Woodland’s agent had a $500,000 bonus clause from Titleist in Woodland’s contract if he led the PGA Tour in driving distance.

Woodland had him take it out so he wouldn’t be tempted to use his driver too often.

“That shows how much confidence he has in his ability,” Seeman said.

It’s justified. Woodland stung a 2-iron 287 yards off the tee on his final hole of the Transitions in Orlando, site of his first PGA tour victory.

Said Zylstra: “I asked him about Congressional, and he said he played it about three weeks ago, and he felt confident.

He said it’s going to be long and tight and said his 2-iron is going to be a great weapon for him.”

NBA veteran Gooden returns to Lawrence

By Gary Bedore gbedore@lworld.com

Drew Gooden, who had last played in Bill Self ’s basketball campers game in June of 2005, brought his talents to Kansas University’s Horejsi Center on Wednesday afternoon.

“I think it was just time for me to do it, so that’s why I’m here. It’s great

to be back. It feels good to be back,” said Gooden, a nine-year NBA veteran who played power forward at KU from 2000 to 2002.

He scored 12 points and grabbed seven rebounds in the KU Alumni Team’s 70-58 loss to the current Jayhawks.

“I wanted to come back and see the upgrades, see how the school looked, how the facility looked and

compared to when I was going here.

I mean, it’s night and day,” said Gooden, especially impressed by the new players’ locker room and lounge.

B E T H E S D A , M D . (AP ) — Golf ’s second major championship of the year seems to have a new name.

It’s the U.S. Wide Open.

Only a small part of that is because of Tiger Woods. He’s not at Congressional because of injuries to his left leg, and he has been missing from the top of leaderboards for more than a year. This is the first U.S. Open since 1999 that Woods is not No. 1 in the world.

The top two players in the world ranking are Luke Donald and Lee Westwood, neither of whom has won a major. Parity U.S. OPEN has returned to golf so much so When: Todaythat 10 players Sunday have won the last 10 majors, Where: and the last Congressional, three major Bethesda, Md. champions are Reigning champ: still in their Graeme McDowell 20s.

Jack Nicklaus, a four-time U.S. Open champion, used to listen to players gripe about the narrow fairways, thick rough and rockhard greens and rule them out of contention. Before long, it was a short field he had to beat.

Congressional isn’t getting much criticism this week. The last several years, the USGA has been trying make the U.S. Open live up to its reputation as the “toughest test in golf” without simply making the course as hard as it could.

“If you’re complaining about playing this course,” Padraig Harrington said Wednesday, “you’re complaining that you can’t hit the shots,” The Irishman, who has fallen out of the top 50 in the world, spent his final day of practice with Masters runner-up Adam Scott and World Golf Championship Please see U.S. OPEN, page 3B

Bridge program paying dividends ————

Five-year-old class helps acclimate incoming KU freshman athletes

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kevin Anderson/Journal-World Photo

HOWARD GRAHAM, CENTER, LEADS a group of Kansas University athletes on a tour of downtown Lawrence. Graham conducted the tour as part of the Bridge program, which acclimates incoming freshman KU athletes to Lawrence, on Wednesday on Massachusetts Street.

During their Wednesday afternoon tour of downtown Lawrence, six freshmen on Kansas University’s football team were part of a rescue mission that placed a trio of baby birds who had fallen out of their nest back near their home.

The act was loaded with symbolism, as Wednesday’s tour was a part of KU’s Bridge program, a f ive-year-old endeavor that seeks to familiarize incoming

freshmen in all sports with their new home.

For some, like defensive back Adonis Saunders, running back Dreamius Smith and linebacker Ben Heeney, finding comfort in Lawrence isn’t that difficult. All three newcomers hail from the Sunflower State and frequently visited Lawrence.

But for others, such as cornerback Chris Robinson, of Lake Mary, Fla., or offensive linemen Travis Bodenstein (Springdale, Ark.) and Luke Luhrsen (Wheaton, Ill.), KU’s campus

and the city that surrounds it are a world away from what they’re used to.

“This class actually helps a lot,” Bodenstein said. “I didn’t know where anything was when I got here, even stuff on campus, so this helps me get used to where I’m at.”

The other football players present Wednesday were: place kicker Alex Mueller, wide receiver JaCorey Shepherd, running back Tony Pierson and linebacker Ryan Karlin.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA — The Boston Bruins had waited 39 long years for another drink from the Stanley Cup, and Tim Thomas was awfully thirsty.

When the Bruins and their brilliant goalie barged into a hostile Canadian rink surrounded by another 100,000 screaming fans outside for Game 7, they emerged with the championship they wanted.

Thomas made 37 saves in the second shutout of his landmark finals performance, Patrice Bergeron and rookie Brad Marchand scored two goals apiece, and the Bruins beat the Vancouver Canucks, 4-0, Wednesday night for their first championship since 1972.

“I think I went even further than I thought,” Thomas said. “I never envisioned three Game 7s in one playoff series and still being able to come out on top.”

Bergeron scored the eventual game-winner in the first period and added a short-handed score in the second to keep the Cup away from the Canucks, who have never won it in nearly 41 years of existence. Star goalie Roberto Luongo again failed to match Thomas’ brilliance, giving up 18 goals in the last five games of the finals.

NBA Heat offer Chalmers MIAMI — Getting in position to try to keep Mario Chalmers has become the first personnel move of the Miami Heat offseason.

As expected, the Heat extended a qualifying offer Wednesday to Chalmers, making him a restricted free agent and giving Miami the right to match any contract he receives over the summer.

Chalmers has said he wants to remain with Miami, though he likely will generate some interest once free agency begins. The Kansas University product made $847,000 this season.

“We’re encouraged by Mario’s progress,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said earlier this week after the team’s exit meetings. “He’s a combination guard and he’s a guard that can start under the right circumstances. He’s also a great fit coming off the bench because of the energy that he provides and his ability to change the game, either with his scoring or defense or playmaking, and that’s a unique quality to have coming off the bench.”

Chalmers has spent all three of his NBA seasons with Miami, averaging 7.9 points and 3.7 assists during regular-season play, 8.1 points and 2.7 assists in playoff games. He was Miami’s fourth-leading scorer behind Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and LeBron James in the NBA finals, which the Heat lost to the Dallas Mavericks in six games.

FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY PLAYERS SCOT POLLARD, LEFT, AND COLE ALDRICH WELCOME other players on the court for Bill Self’s basketball camp on Wednesday at Horejsi Center.

Rock Chalk Roundball Classic is the last time I touched the court or gym shoes or a basketball. I was lucky to even get to the rim today.”

He had a blast being reunited with Gooden.

“I love Drew. It was a pleasure finally being teammates with him one year in Cleveland,” Pollard said. “He is my kind of guy. He’s a walking double-double. The guy knows where the ball is, he finds it, he gets rebounds without really trying. He and Nick Collison together in college was an unreal frontcourt.

Drew’s a great guy, and I love seeing him.”

Gooden said there’s a chance he and other NBA players just might be working out in Lawrence this fall and winter if there’s an NBA lockout.

“I can envision that,” Gooden said. “I’m one of the guys saying, ‘Hey, if this does go into November, December, I mean, what better place would there be to train than here in Kansas?’

“To at least practice with the team or be around the

facility, I think that’s a great idea. That’s been brought up.

The union is trying to prepare some places in certain cities where a lot of NBA guys stay in the offseason and set up some workouts like that.

There’s going to be stuff for us to do if there is a lockout, but to come back to your school, there’s no better atmosphere and focusing on getting ready for the season than that.”

One of the stars of Wednesday’s camp game would love to spend more quality time with Gooden, who, by the way, has played with a whopping nine NBA teams.

“I remember watching him a lot (at KU growing up),” said Kansas Citian Releford, who hit six of nine shots, including three three-pointers. “I got to guard him at the beginning of the game and most of the game. He was trying to come at me earlier, and I was going right back at him. It was a lot of fun.”

Gooden, who missed 40 games last season because of a case of plantar fasciitis, enjoyed shaking off the rust.

Bridges CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

In all, 40 student-athletes are expected to participate in the Bridge program this year, an all-time high for the class that spans two months and provides a couple of credit hours to each student. Tuesday, about 16 student-athletes from other sports walked Mass Street and became acquainted with one of the city’s most popular spots.

Wednesday, it was all football, as 10 members of coach Turner Gill’s first full recruiting class walked the streets and checked out the stores that line both sides of the popular strip of town.

“The whole purpose is so they become comfortable with their new hometown of Lawrence, Kan.,” instructor Adam Miller said. “Some of them don’t have transportation, some of them haven’t gotten outside of the dorms yet, so we just want to get them to Mass Street and kind of show them the city of Lawrence.”

First up was a meeting with the mayor, Aron Cromwell, at City Hall. Then, Bridge instructors Miller and Howard Graham each took a group of guys up one side and

The USGA didn’t have the course exactly as it wanted because of oppressive heat the week before that kept it from cutting the greens as low as usual, fearful of them dying.

Even so, there already were brown patches on some of

Most popular among this bunch were the shoe stores, sports-apparel businesses and Framewoods, 819 Mass., the frame store that features a giant photo of Wilt Chamberlain and Mario Chalmers’ famed “miracle” shot from the 2008 NCAA title game in the window.

The tour ended at Sylas & Maddy’s, the locally owned ice cream store at 1014 Mass.

About the only complaint from Harrington — more subject for architectural debate — was moving back the tee on No. 12 to make it play 471 yards. It took away the option of hitting a draw around the dogleg, and replaced it with another strong hole to start the back nine.

It was suggested to Harrington that Congressional already had ample length at the end.

from how to cook to writing papers.

“None of these students have taken a college course before,” Miller said. “So we teach them how to write a paper, how to communicate with professors. We take them for tours around KU.” Miller pointed to past research that backs up the importance of a program like Bridge. Statistics have shown that in the five years the program has been around, those student-athletes who participated were more likely to

“It’s an ample start,” he said.

“And the middle is not that easy, either.”

Some things never change.

There was another Nicklaus comment that caught the attention of Geoff Ogilvy, who won the U.S. Open five years ago at Winged Foot.

“The U.S. Open is 72 holes of bad breaks with the occasional surprise,” Nicklaus once said.

“Which is kind of how it feels,” Ogilvy added. “It really is 72 holes of trying to not get annoyed at bad breaks.

They’re the guys who do it best.”

A’s sign former Kansas pitcher Walz to minor-league deal J-W Staff Reports

admitted he felt like an oldtimer while playing before 800 Self campers Wednesday.

“It’s funny how the kids out there are 8-9 years old, and I’ve been in the league 10 years now,” Gooden said.

“When I was at Kansas, they weren’t probably even thought of yet, so it feels good to see the youth coming in. It feels good to play with the younger guys on this team now. They’re athletic. It seems like none of them even broke a sweat out there.”

Gooden’s losing Red team included 36-year-old former NBA power forward Scot Pollard, who, in playing for the f irst time in a full year, impressed with nine points and six rebounds. Oklahoma City Thunder center Cole Aldrich had 13 points and 10 boards, while recent KU grads Brady Morningstar and Tyrel Reed chipped in 10 and eight points, respectively.

KU junior forward Travis Releford scored 15 points to lead the winning Blue team.

Elijah Johnson had 11 points, Thomas Robinson 10 points and seven boards, Conner Teahan nine points and Tyshawn Taylor eight points, six rebounds and six assists.

“We stayed with them for a while. We’re old. We’re out of shape. We got tired. They got easy transition baskets. A young team outran us,” said Pollard, who will play two games in two days.

He will compete in today’s Rock Chalk Roundball Classic charity game, (involving former KU players) set for a 7 p.m. tipoff at Free State High’s gym.

“I just hope I can walk (today),” added the 6-foot-11, 275-pound Pollard, who played for five teams in an 11year NBA career. “Last year’s

Baseball First-Year Player Draft.

Walz was assigned to the team’s Class A Short-Season affiliate, the Vermont Lake Monsters. Vermont Lake opens its New York-Penn League season Monday against the Lowell Spinners, a Boston Red Sox affiliate.

Walz led KU in wins last year, going 6-5 in 14 starts with 85 strikeouts in 902⁄3 innings.

He f inished with a 3.97 earned-run average, while holding the opposition to a .241 average. He was named All-Big 12 honorable mention for the second time in his career.

“I am exhausted right now,” Gooden said. “That’s a talented team. Thomas Robinson is going to be a great player. He has great upside, great strength, leaping ability, skill.

He needs more playing time at this level, show he can dominate this level, then one day be able to play at the next level. He has upside for that definitely.”

Gooden said he’ll be rooting for all the Jayhawks again next season.

“Something that’s huge in an NBA locker room is representing your college, and me having to always be the only Jayhawk on the team, I’m always fending for myself and defending myself,” Gooden said. “It’s huge following college basketball.

You don’t understand how much NBA players follow college basketball and how big a fan they are of their alma mater.” ●

Draft talk: Former KU forward Markieff Morris worked out for his hometown Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. He told the Philadelphia Inquirer it would “mean a lot” to be selected by Philly in the June 23 draft.

“I can help the team,” he said. “I’m a stretch four, and I’m tough. I have that Philly pride, so they like that about me a lot. ... It was a good workout. I definitely wanted to impress these guys as much as possible.”

remain in school through graduation.

A few former student-athletes who are living proof of that are planning to speak to this year’s group later in the summer.

Former KU basketball standout Cole Aldrich, now with the Oklahoma City Thunder, and former football standouts Mike Rivera, now with the Miami Dolphins, and Darrell Stuckey, who plays for the San Diego Chargers, each participated in Bridge to kick off his college career.

This year’s Bridge class runs through July 28, with the final week of classes taking place at the Spencer Art Museum, where each athlete will give a speech that introduces one of the works of art hanging on the walls.

“The main goal is just for them to learn how to be successful in the college environment,” Miller said.

Though it’s early, the feedback seemed favorable.

“I actually really like this class,” Saunders said. “I don’t like just sitting in a lecture class, so it’s cool to get out and do things.”

Added Robinson: “Yeah, this is cool because it showed me where everything is.”

KANSAS CITY SHORTSTOP ALCIDES ESCOBAR (2) THROWS over Oakland’s Daric Barton to complete a double play in the seventh inning. The Royals fell to the Athletics, 2-1, on Wednesday in Oakland, Calif.

Royals upended, 2-1 OAKLAND, CALIF. (AP) — Josh Outman allowed four hits over seven innings, and the Oakland Athletics gave new manager Bob Melvin his first home victory by beating the Kansas City Royals, 2-1, on Wednesday night.

Cliff Pennington and Daric Barton had RBI singles off starter Luke Hochevar (4-7), who took a no-hitter into the sixth inning before it all fell apart.

The scuffling A’s had lost three straight and 13 of 14 in a streak that began under Bob Geren. Melvin improved to 24 since taking over for the fired Geren.

Outman (2-1) struck out two and walked two in the deepest outing of his majorleague career without allowing a run. Andrew Bailey pitched a perfect ninth for his second save in three chances.

Kansas City’s Alcides Escobar had three hits, including a double off reliever Brian Fuentes in the eighth, to tie his

Dear Seaside: In many instances, being a godfather is a serious religious responsibility. If Tony isn’t interested in a relationship with his godchild, he should bow out and ask Mara to find someone else. But if he continues in this role, it will necessitate ongoing, regular contact with Mara. It doesn’t matter

Teens face fate worse than death on MTV Only on MTV would four teens facing imminent death (not to mention a dwindling supply of oxygen!) take time out for a chatty game of “Truth or Dare.” The made-for-TV drama “The Truth Below” (9 p.m., MTV) careens quite quickly from an innocent ski weekend to an avalanche.

Trapped together, four photogenic types let their egos rage.

Jenna (Gillian Zinser) pouts because Dante (Nick Thurston), the alpha-male of the crew, doesn’t pay enough attention to her. Ethan (Reid Ewing) cracks wise and makes obnoxious gibes about his prowess and insinuates a casual intimacy with Jenna. You might recognize Ewing as Haley’s boyfriend Dylan from “Modern Family.” Liam (Ricky Mabe) is the mouse at the tea party, a wheezing asthmatic with mother issues to boot.

The game of true confessions hardly makes sense except as a means to propel the movie and inspire flashbacks and kill time between the avalanche and story’s resolution, a very long one hour later. And this being MTV, those confessions involve virginity, gang rape and the perverse invasion of privacy.

For all of its faults, “Truth” hews to at least one essential truth: Young people (at least in movies) may talk about sex all the time, but the subjects of chance encounters, destiny and the notion of an early poignant death are never very far from the surface. Even when you’re buried beneath a mountain of snow. ● A dusty, crowded facility in Austin, Texas, becomes the setting for “Boxing Gym” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings), the 2010 documentary study by Frederick Wiseman. This gym’s clientele appears to have as many women as men, and a fair amount of children as well as older men seeking the discipline of a boxer’s training.

As in other Wiseman films, the camera hovers over the proceedings like the proverbial fly on the wall, allowing viewers snippets of unfinished conversations and the trance-inducing repetitive action of sparring and training. At times it seems like “nothing” is happening, but an hour later you realize you’ve been submerged into a subculture all its own. ● TCM invites viewers to spend the night screaming along to drive-in shockers from the 1950s and ’60s, beginning with “Attack of the 50 Foot Woman” (7 p.m.) and concluding with “The Killer Shrews” (3:45 a.m.). Look for a young Ron Howard in “Village of the Giants” (8:30 p.m.) from 1965.

Tonight’s other highlights ● Two participants face elimination on “So You Think You Can Dance” (7 p.m., Fox). ● Shred and dead on “CSI” (8 p.m., CBS). ● A baptism by fire on “The Office” (8 p.m., NBC). ● Rachel wants to hit the reset button on “Glee” (8 p.m., Fox). ● A time capsule project requires reflection on “Parks and Recreation” (8:30 p.m., NBC). ● Laura Prepon guest stars on “Love Bites” (9 p.m., NBC). ● Forced back to port on “Swords: Life on the Line” (9 p.m. Discovery).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Thursday, June 16: This year, your focus needs to remain on a key partnership. For some of you, two relationships could take a higher priority.

One could be professional.

Finances and taking risks could be hot issues. If you are single, you will quickly fall into a close bond. If you are attached, the two of you become closer, but often there are periods of withdrawal, followed by greater closeness. Capricorn helps ground you.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ Your ability to handle a problem allows for greater efficiency. Your intuition guides you with someone you put on a pedestal or must answer to. Tonight: A must appearance.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★ Touch base with an expert before making a full declaration about your next step. You might not be comfortable with what is being suggested.

Tonight: Look at a different approach.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★★ A partnership increases in importance.

Your instincts come through for you once more,

though you need to keep yourself under control.

Tonight: Dinner for two.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★★★ Defer to friends or associates. A boss tends to act in the most unexpected manner.

Look at the situation positively; at least you are not bored. Tonight: Go with a suggestion.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★ Recognize what you must accomplish.

Whether it's the thought of the weekend or the pressure of a situation, you focus and do what is needed. Tonight: Get some rest.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ You might be amused by someone's unpredictability, but it might be wise not to let this person know. Communicate your intentions in a meeting or get-together.

Tonight: Say "yes" to an offer.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★ Work with a family member and don't back off. Your ability to move in a new direction and let go could be stalemated.

Tonight: Order in.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★ Your ability to communicate your needs allows greater flex from others. Sometimes you get quite nervous as you deal with one associate or person in your daily life.

Dear Annie: I have known “Tony” for 17 years, and we’ve dated for the past seven. He has one ex-girlfriend who has remained in his life. When “Mara” became pregnant (by another man), she asked Tony to be the godfather. At first he told her no, because he thought it would make me uncomfortable (you think?), but after she pleaded with him that there was no one else, he agreed to do it. He told me he was only doing a favor for her and it didn’t mean he would be involved in the child’s life.

I accepted the situation as best I could. Since then, we have all been together a couple of times, and Mara is so self-absorbed, it makes me uncomfortable. She never includes me in the conversation.

A year ago, Mara called about getting together so Tony could see his godchild. I was going to be out of town that weekend, so Tony turned her down. But that same weekend, she somehow arranged some kind of drama and called Tony to come over and help her out. She knows how to manipulate and play the helpless female. Fortunately, nothing happened because Tony didn’t fall for it.

The problem is, when Tony told me about that weekend, it made me wonder about
