delayed action Thursday apparently to debate his nomination.

And the Lawrence attorney is not getting support of his home state’s two Republican U.S. senators.

Sens. Pat Roberts and Jerry Moran — neither serve on the judiciary committee — announced they oppose Six’s

nomination to the federal bench.

President Barack Obama nominated the Democrat in March to sit on the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Six lost his attorney general election bid to Derek Schmidt in November.

In a statement Thursday afternoon, Roberts, the state’s senior senator who urged judiciary

committee members to vote against Six, mentioned the former attorney general’s testimony at a May confirmation hearing.

“Based on that hearing, a review of the committee record will show several areas where his answers were not forthcoming or where issues of his judgment in handling cases as attorney gener-

TOPEKA — The Kansas Board of Regents on Thursday approved $26 million in tuition and fee increases for public universities, including Kansas University, and several board members blamed the Legislature for decreasing its tax dollar commitment to higher education.

“I wish we didn’t have to do this,” said Christine DowneySchmidt of Inman. “This is the option we have left until our partners come back and help us with this process.”

“Everything is going up except state funding. The question is who is going to pay for it,” said Dan Lykins of Topeka.

For now, the answer is students will have to pay more.

Starting this fall at KU, tuition and required fees will increase 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 will increase from $9,504 to $10,179, a $675 increase or 7.1 percent. Graduate students Please see REGENTS, page 6A

Lawrence no longer home to Hallmark retail store

By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

Lawrence is home to hundreds of Hallmark employees who work at one of Hallmark’s major production centers for Hallmark cards, Hallmark ribbons, Hallmark bows and Hallmark-brand stickers.

But the city no longer is home to a Hallmark Gold Crown store.

The former Rod’s Hallmark at 2329 Iowa now operates as Rod’s Cards & Gifts, a change effective two weeks ago for the entire 10-store Rod’s chain, which includes shops from Manhattan to St. Joseph, Mo. Employees and management at the Lawrence store referred questions to

the office of owner Rod Henning, who has been unavailable for comment. While the office voicemail still answers as “Rod’s Hallmark,” Henning’s chain no longer is receiving deliveries from Hallmark and instead is looking into offering cards and other products from either American Greetings or Designer Greetings.

“It was a personal decision with Rod,” said Taylor Wallace, a supervisor at the Manhattan store.

The Rod’s stores are selling out of their remaining inventories of Hallmark cards, wrapping paper and other items.

Rod’s has several stores in and around Kansas City, Mo., where Hallmark Cards Inc. has its corporate

headquarters; Rod’s also has a store in Leavenworth, where Hallmark has a plant that makes Hallmark bags and other party items.

Within the past year, Rod’s closed its store in Topeka, where Hallmark has another production center.

While Hallmark sells cards through “mass channels” — such as supermarkets, drugstores and other retailers — in Lawrence and elsewhere, its Gold Crown stores are considered the premier channel for distributing its cards, gifts and other items for decorating and entertaining. There are more than 3,000 Gold Crown stores in the United States, of which 385 are owned by Hallmark itself.

Linda Odell, a Hallmark spokeswoman, said she could not comment about any individual retailer but acknowledged that Hallmark would look into opportunities to return the Gold Crown flag to Lawrence, which has had a production plant at 101 McDonald Drive since 1958.

“Anytime a store closes, we are always looking at the location and what the business and consumer needs are to see whether it is feasible to put in another Hallmark Gold Crown store,” Odell said. “Clearly, if there’s Hallmark Gold Crown business to be done, we would like to do that.”

Ceremony recognizes graduates of GED preparation program

By Joe Preiner jpreiner@ljworld.com

With the turn of a tassel, it was over.

Chris Wilson and 24 other students put the finishing touches on their graduation from the Lawrence Public Schools’ Adult Learning Center on Thursday night at Free State High School.

Wilson, a 28-year-old Lawrence resident, was one of two graduate speakers at the ceremony. He recounted his early struggles in the program aimed at preparing students for the GED test. He gave a heartfelt account of the time he spent working with teachers and fellow students, giving thanks to his mother, family and friends for their support.

“I’ll miss the teachers,” Wilson said.

“They were big supporters that helped us and pushed us and got us there. Like that little engine that could, just barely nudged over the hill.”

Teachers and staff for the Adult Learning Center were in attendance along with Lawrence School Board President Rich Minder and other education leaders.

The 25 graduates at the ceremony Thursday were only a portion of the 88 who passed the GED test for the academic year. Many who finished the program last fall have since gone their own way.

DEATHS Gene Burnett 1919-2011 Barbara Burnett 1920-2007 Gene Burnett passed away Wednesday, June 15, 2011.

He was born in Wellsville, KS on Dec. 4, 1919, to Frank and Allene Burnett. His family eventually settled in Lawrence, where he graduated from high school in 1937.

While in high school he began a life-long interest in flying. He would ride his bike to the airport, where he did odd jobs and had the opportunity to learn welding. In 1939, he married Barbara Ann Knott, and they moved to Kansas City, where he worked at a defense plant during the war. It was there he earned free flying lessons by getting the highest score on an entrance test. He obtained his pilot’s license, and by the end of the war he had bought his first airplane – a Stearman biplane that had been used as a military trainer. He attained instructor and commercial licenses as well. He owned several private planes through the years and even built a “Starduster Too” biplane in his own workshop. By the time of his last flight at age 84 he had accumulated over 6,500 hours.

After the war he and his family moved back to Lawrence. He opened Midwest Manufacturing and later Burnett Instrument Company. He manufactured surgical instruments, most of which he designed himself, and held many patents.

He designed and manufactured the first electric skin grafter. He also designed many plastic disposable examining instruments.

Other products included a cast saw, a hand therapy device, and dental devices.

The business was sold in 1970.

Gene served on the Board of Directors of the 1st National Bank (now USBank) from 1970 to 1990; the Board of Directors of Lawrence Savings; was Vice President of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce in 1970; was a member of Sertoma, receiving their Service to Mankind Award in 1973; and a member of Kiwanis, receiving their Substantial Citizen Award for years of service to the community in 1979. He was a member of the Lawrence Memorial Hospital Board for 10 years, during the first major expansion. He and Barbara were contributors to the Bob Billings Cardiac Unit. Gene was active with

Barbara and Gene Burnett the Lawrence United Fund for 24 years, and with Habitat for Humanity – donating materials and labor, receiving their Volunteer of the Year award in 1999. He was awarded the Baker University Lawrence Business Person of the Year award in 1991.

Although Gene and Barabara never attended Kansas University they made many contributions.

After selling the company, they decided to give back something to their field of business. They donated a major portion of the funds needed to build the Gene and Barbara Burnett Burn Center, which was opened in 1973 at the Kansas University Medical Center, and also funds to establish a hand surgery unit there.

Gene served on the KU Medical Advisors Committee from 1974-1984 and received a certificate of appreciation from them in 1977. The KU Medical School presented him with a certificate of appreciation for service to KU as a member of the Chancellor’s Association in 1979. He served 5 years on the Advisory Board of the KU Surgeons Association.

After he flew track coach Bob Timmons around Lawrence to plot the KU Relays marathon, he became the marathon manager. He helped design a more efficient wind gauge to determine the velocity for track events.

In 1987 he was the recipient of the Fred Ellsworth Medallion for providing “unique and significant service to the university.”

After retirement Gene was involved in a number of projects. He owned and managed a cattle ranch in Jefferson County from 19732000, was an investor in oil exploration in Western Kansas from 1973-1983, and developed three real estate projects: the rental units of Parkway 4000 and Parkway

work and determination to finish.

“It’s a big goal to set,” Johnson said of passing the 7.5hour test. “Finally the stars align and everything falls into place and something starts to click and we finish. That’s the reward.”

That reward was given to Jessica Cheek, 27, while her children watched from their seats. Graduates from preschool and second grade themselves, Gracee and Kelcee Reese said they were proud to see their mother finish, though they admittedly weren’t much help with the homework.

“I just played,” Kelcee laughed.

Proud father William Green watched as his son Holden, 18, walked across the stage to receive his diploma.

Understanding that high school isn’t for everyone, Green was happy to see his son take an important step.

“I feel like I completed a part of my parenting that was needed,” Green said. “It’s a step now that’s already taken care of.”

And while graduates mingled with family and took pictures with friends following the ceremony, the future waited outside.

Wilson, diploma in hand, said he was ready for it.

“It’s time to start something new,” he said. “It’s time to get the ball rolling again.”

spokeswoman for the committee, told The Associated Press the delay came because some members wanted to debate his nomination. The debate and vote is now scheduled for next Thursday.

Several Kansas and national abortion groups have criticized Six’s nomination and ties to former Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, Obama’s current Health and Human Services secretary who appointed him attorney general. But attorneys have praised his nomination, citing his integrity and legal abilities. An American Bar Association committee rated him as “well qualified” for the position.

During the May confirmation hearing, Six mostly was g rilled by the ranking Republican on the committee, Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, on abortion issues stemming from his tenure as attorney general and his

6000, and the private housing area on Broadmoor Drive.

In 1972, Gene and Barbara donated funds for the Burnett Center for Religion and Performing Arts, including an adjoining auditorium, at Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas. They also provided funds to renovate the music department of the college. It was named in memory of Barbara’s brother, Thomas DeWitt, who attended Bethany.

In 2000, Gene established a scholarship at Lawrence High in honor of his wife.

The Barbara Burnett Scholarship, endowed in 2008-09, is presented each year to a student who is interested in pursuing a career in a health or medical-related field.

Gene was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church since 1938 and chaired nine different committees. He was Boy Scout Master of Troop 58 at the church from 1955-1963. The highlight of his Scouting experience was a trip to Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico. Barbara became a member of the church at the age of 9 and was an active member of the women’s organizations.

Barbara died in November of 2007. Gene’s younger brother, Jim Burnett, preceded him in death. His older brother, Donald, lives in Colorado. Also surviving are three grandchildren, Shannon and Kristi, and Andrew, and six greatgrandchildren.

The family wishes to thank Gene’s home caregivers, Lisa Arch and Irene Garcia, and the staff at Douglas County Visiting Nurses and Hospice and Brandon Woods South for the wonderful care they gave him.

Gene and Barbara will be remembered at the 10 o’clock worship service at Trinity Lutheran Church on July 17, followed by the annual Corn Fest, which will be dedicated to them.

Donations in their memory may be made to Lawrence Habitat for Humanity, 720 Connecticut, or the Lawrence Schools Foundation, for the Barbara Burnett Scholarship, 110 McDonald Drive and may be sent in care of Warren-McElwain Mortuary.

judicial views on the issue.

“After thoroughly reviewing Mr. Six’s qualifications and testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, I will not be supporting President Obama’s nominee to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals,” Moran said in a statement.

Moran’s office did not elaborate when asked Thursday.

Carl Tobias, a University of Richmond law professor who follows the federal judiciary, said Thursday it was too soon to tell whether lack of support from the two Kansas senators would harm Six’s nomination.

“I think we need to know the basis of that opposition, and we’ll see,” Tobias said.

Six is a former Douglas County judge whose father, Fred Six, is a retired Kansas Supreme Court justice. He began his law career nearly

Senate OKs repeal of ethanol tax credits The Senate voted Thursday to repeal tax credits for producing ethanol, a vote that budget cutters hope will demonstrate a growing appetite in Congress to end special interest tax breaks to help reduce government borrowing.

The Senate voted 73-27 to repeal the $5 billion annual subsidy, just two days after rejecting an identical measure. The tax credit provides 45 cents a gallon to oil refiners who mix gasoline with ethanol, a renewable, liquid fuel additive that comes mainly from corn in the U.S. The measure will now be added to a bill renewing a federal economic development program. The prospects for the overall bill are uncertain, but Thursday’s vote clearly endangers the ethanol tax credit, which would expire at the end of the year anyway, unless Congress renews it.

Biden: Trade-offs ahead in budget talks Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday that negotiators for a plan to cut the federal deficit have completed a thorough review of the government’s budget and will turn to the difficult trade-offs needed to cut trillions of dollars over the coming decade.

Biden said that both sides have signaled what they might be willing to accept as part of a larger agreement but that they haven’t tackled really tough decisions on health care or new revenues. He spoke to reporters after the eighth in a series of meetings aimed at producing an agreement on budget cuts that would accompany must-pass legislation to allow the government to keep borrowing to avoid a default on its obligations.

Biden said that Democrats are willing to go along with changes to federal health care programs and domestic agency budgets if Republicans are willing to accept new revenues and curbs on the Pentagon budget.

The study also found teens drink water, milk and fruit juices most often — a pleasant surprise, because researchers weren’t certain that was the case.

“We were very pleased to see that,” said the study’s lead author, Nancy Bener of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Still, a quarter have at least one soda each day. And when other sugary drinks like Gatorade are also counted, the figure is closer to two-thirds of high school students drinking a sweetened beverage every day.

Chicago-based Playboy says it is affixing red and yellow stickers over the cover image of 24-year-old Crystal Harris. The stickers say, “Runaway Bride in this issue!” The 85-year-old Hefner announced Tuesday that the pair will not wed.

The issue is due on newsstands today.

Harris appears on the July cover wearing a sailor hat with the headline “America’s Princess introducing Mrs. Crystal Hefner.” The pair were to be married Saturday at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles.

Pentagon dreams of interstellar travel The Defense Department first proposed Star Wars.

Now it wants Star Trek.

DARPA, the Pentagon’s research agency that helped foster the Internet, wants someone to dream up a way to send people to a star.

The winner will get half a million dollars for the idea. This month 150 competitors answered the federal government’s initial call for private sector cosmic ideas. Officials say some big names are among those interested. The plan is to make interstellar travel possible in about a century.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is spending a total of $1 million on the project. After presentations are made this fall at a conference in Orlando, Fla., DARPA will decide in November who gets the money.

Negotiators representing more than 900 educators in the Lawrence school district are pushing back against their administrative bosses, arguing that teachers and other licensed personnel deserve larger raises and better benefits than they’ve been offered.

And the Lawrence Education Association representatives brought numbers to back them up, as they work to form a master agreement to determine compensation and working conditions for educators for 2011-12.

Union negotiators on Thursday reiterated their stance that the district should boost wages for licensed educators by $1,500 a year, and that the boost should remain in place as years go by.

District negotiators last week had offered to boost salaries by $500, in a one-time payment that would come in December but not remain on the books for future years.

David Reber, the union’s lead negotiator, dismissed the district’s offer as unfair and offered up justification: According to data compiled by the Kansas National Education Association, using numbers reported by the Kansas State Department of Education, the “total compensation package” enjoyed by different employee groups in the district ranks: ● 75th statewide for teachers, averaging $51,089. ● 47th for administrators, averaging $87,574. ● 20th for the superintendent, averaging $158,269.

AUDRIE HUMMELGAARD, of rural Linwood, turns 102 today. She grew up near Lone Star, helping do work on the family farm, and has remained active ever since.

Happy birthday to Audrie Hummelgaard. She turns 102 today.

After more than a century of roaming Kansas and beyond — she’s been to 46 states — she’s content to stay in her red-brick home in rural Leavenworth County north of Eudora.

Last year, she was still cutting her grass with a riding mower.

Now legally blind and mostly confined to a wheelchair, Hummelgaard spends her days washing clothes, cleaning the house and doing other chores.

“Might not be as good as

some people want it,” she said as she swept the floor from her chair. “But when you get to 102, who cares?”

She grew up with four sisters and six brothers on her parents’ farm near Lone Star, where she learned to milk cows and drive a combine with a team of horses.

“It was pretty hard work,” she said, recalling one year

SOUND OFF

Q:

Are bicycles allowed on Kansas Highway 10 between the eastern edge of Lawrence and Interstate 435? I saw two highschool-aged cyclists and was concerned for their safety.

A:

Cycling is permitted on state highways, even those with speed limits you would find on an interstate — where cyclists can’t go. So the teens were not breaking the law, though transportation officials share the reader’s concern.

“They can (ride there), but it’s not encouraged,” said Kim Qualls, KDOT’s public affairs manager for northeast Kansas.

What’s the most you’d be willing to pay for a college education?

Asked at Dillons, 1015 West 23rd St.

Julie Bell, art history major, Lawrence “Honestly I don’t know. I go to KU and wish tuition would go down.”

Robert Raines, high school senior, Linwood “Probably around $24,000 to $25,000.”

Paul Hahn, therapist, Lawrence “Honest answer: I don’t think anyone knows. I spent twice as much on my master’s as I did on my bachelor’s.”

Shannon Mock, medical bills and calling, Lawrence “I wouldn’t want to go any higher than $30,000.”

LAWRENCE Man convicted in daughter’s battery A Douglas County judge has convicted a 33-year-old Lawrence man on an aggravated battery charge related to a December incident in which his daughter, who was 5 months old at the time, broke her arm.

Curtis J. Johnson entered a no-contest plea to the aggravated battery count during a Thursday morning hearing in front of District Judge Kay Huff.

Prosecutors had accused Johnson of abusing the girl after she was taken to a doctor’s office with bone fractures and later hospitalized.

Johnson initially faced a charge of felony child abuse or an alternate count of aggravated battery before he pleaded Thursday to aggravated battery, which is also a felony.

Family members after Johnson’s December arrest had said the girl’s injuries were an accident, but prosecutors disagreed.

According to state sentencing guidelines, Johnson would face anywhere from 11 months to 34 months in prison, but he could qualify for probation unless he has two past convictions of person felonies.

Huff is scheduled to sentence Johnson Aug. 8.

ON THE RECORD LJWORLD.COM/BLOTTER

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT • Police early Thursday morning arrested a 20-year-old man who was accused of inappropriately touching a woman inside The Hawk, 1340 Ohio, and punching a bar staff member in the face, said Sgt. Matt Sarna, a police spokesman.

Sarna said about 1:30 a.m. a bar employee observed the suspect grab the woman, and while the man was being escorted outside he struck the employee on the side of the face. A Lawrence officer driving by the area observed bar staff members restraining the man on the ground and later arrested him.

The bar employee did not require medical attention, Sarna said. The suspect was not formally charged on Thursday, meaning he could appear in court this afternoon if charges are filed then.

Group: Church could do more for sex abuse victims

By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

ONLINE: See more at LJWorld.com

Advocates against sexual abuse in the Catholic Church were in Lawrence on Thursday urging local church officials to be more proactive in outreach to victims.

David Clohessy, director of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, said his organization is concerned about the potential for more sexual abuse victims of former Kansas priest John Martin Fiala.

Fiala, 52, was arrested by U.S. marshals in Lawrence last September and extradited to Texas, where he is fac-

that when times are tough, the district must be responsible with its expenditures.

“But it seems like what money there is ought to go around equitably,” Reber said.

“It doesn’t seem equitable.”

Reber also distributed charts outlining what each member of the union’s negotiating team earns in Lawrence, and would be earning in other districts within commuting distance: ● Reber, a Free State High School biology teacher, earns $49,830 in Lawrence, while he could make $59,800 in Kansas City, Kan.

“The local church officials have a moral and civic obligation to reach out and try to find anyone he may have hurt,” Clohessy said. Those are steps the Archdiocese of Kansas City, Kan., has yet to take, he said.

“We’ve seen no evidence that they’ve done real outreach,” he said.

Clohessy said there have not been any reported allegations that Fiala sexually abused anyone during his tenure in Kansas.

Rose Hammes, director of communication and planning for the Archdiocese of Kansas City, Kan., took issue with Clohessy’s allegations in an emailed statement to the Journal-World on Thursday.

“The SNAP statements are erroneous. We did work with all of the parishes that had contact with Fiala, inviting anyone from those parishes, if they had suffered abuse, to contact us. It was published in the parish bulletins. No one contacted the Archdiocese,” Hammes said.

A June 2010 Journal-World investigation outlined allegations of sexual abuse in all four of the Kansas Catholic Dioceses. At that time, no one from any of the Dioceses would agree to an interview with the Journal-World regarding allegations of abuse.

ing criminal charges for the alleged sexual abuse of a minor.

Fiala is also charged with trying to hire a hit man to kill Fiala the alleged victim, according to San Antonio Express-News reports.

Fiala served in the St. Joseph’s parish in Shawnee in 2001 and 2002, followed by several months at a parish in Holton, according to news reports.

Clohessy spoke at a news conference in front of the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center, 11 E. 11th St.

After quitting high school, Audrie earned $9 a week at the SH Kress & Co. dime store in Lawrence. She tested light bulbs by plugging them into a socket on the counter before selling them to customers. Her savings bought her a Ford Model A in 1927.

Later, she was an inspector for the Hercules Powder Co.

Arts Commission chairwoman who is the leader of the private fundraising group formed by Brownback that he says will be able to fund the arts in Kansas.

Attendees of the meeting on Thursday noted that Kansas had attracted national attention for being the first state in the country to take such a move. Arts advocates have also said that the cut in funding also means that Kansas could be at risk of losing $1.2 million in federal funds from the National Endowment for the Arts.

The meeting was attended by more than 50 people, and was organized by the advocacy group the Kansas Citizens for the Arts. Organizers said they planned to host similar events to brainstorm strategies and organize support across the state, with the goal of restoring public funding.

“It may not happen in the next legislative session,” said Ann Evans, co-chairwoman of Kansas Citizens for the Arts.

“We may need to have another election.”

Sarah Carkhuff Fizell, one of the event’s organizers, said the Kansas Citizens for the Arts was exploring the potential for forming a political action committee that would financially support political candidates that supported the arts in Kansas.

Kansas Poet Laureate Caryn Mirriam-Goldberg attended the meeting Thursday, and read a poem to the crowd.

She was affected by the governor’s decision, having previously received a $2,500 stipend, a $2,000 travel budget and staff support from the Arts Commission.

“I’m living in limbo, but I’m still writing poetry,” she said.

at the Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant. In the great flood of 1951, while her house was under six feet of water, her husband, Clarence, rescued neighbors with a rowboat.

They moved in a trailer from place to place for his construction projects — including building missile silos in Idaho — before settling in her present home farther north of town. Audrie always had meals ready promptly at 5:30 p.m., with pies and cakes after: “He

loved sweet stuff.”

She admits things have been a little tougher since Clarence died in 2000 after 63 years of marriage.

Nothing big is planned for Audrie’s birthday, just some cake and coffee with friends.

Meals on Wheels might bring her favorite lunch: chicken enchilada casserole.

Tuition and fees under the KU Compact — for first-time, degree-seeking freshmen — will increase from $4,366 to $4,611, or $245, which is a 5.6percent increase. That cost will be fixed for four years.

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

Since the KU Compact has been in effect for several years, 65 percent of returning undergraduates will see no tuition increase, according to KU. Students at KU Medical Center will see a 4.9 percent increase.

All the regents schools were granted increases. For a resident undergraduate, the tuition and fee increase at Kansas State will be 3.8 percent; Wichita State, 5.1 percent; Emporia State, 6.8 percent; Pittsburg State, 6.5 percent; and Fort Hays State, 3.6 percent.

Regents members said the tuition increases were needed to cover increased costs in utilities and employee health insurance, pay for increased mandates from the Legislature, and make up for continued budget cuts.

The budget signed into law

by Gov. Sam Brownback allocates an estimated $744 million to higher education for the fiscal year that starts July 1. That is down from the $753 million for the current fiscal year. During the two years prior to that, higher education was cut by approximately $100 million as the state reeled from the recession.

Regent Jarold Boettcher of Manhattan said the tuition increases are tied to the decreasing state commitment to higher education. “It’s not an accident. It’s not a coincidence. It’s a fact,” he said.

KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little said the increases at KU were needed to make up for increasing costs, such as in health insurance and utilities, and also will be used to give raises to top faculty, increase the availability of high-demand classes, and for student retention support services.

She said private universities and public universities in faster growing states are trying to lure away faculty.

Additionally, about $400,000 of the increase will be added to the $10.3 million in need-based grants.

“We are going to continue to do everything we can to make sure students who want to come to KU, who can do college work, have an opportunity to do that,” she said.

Native plants blooming with medicinal possibilities

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Neat rows of mint, echinacea and sage are among about 70 plant species that fill a large garden plot just east of the Lawrence Municipal Airport.

The Kansas University Native Medicinal Plant Research Garden is just a year old. Last spring, the land lay freshly tilled and barren as crews worked to install an irrigation system.

Today, it is blooming with life.

The plants — all native to Kansas — have been selected for their healing powers with the hope that they will someday find new uses as herbal products and compounds for pharmaceuticals, pet medicine or cosmetics.

“We believe native plants of Kansas and the Great Plains have an important role to play in terms of human health,” said Kelly Kindscher, a senior scientist at the Kansas Biological Survey and head of the botany side of the research program.

The garden has sparked the interest of all ages, from toddlers to those in their 90s.

“It is a beautiful place. It is a living place. We are seeing more animal life out here than we did last year,” said Kirsten Bosnak, who is the project coordinator for the medicinal plant research program.

The research garden has spawned other projects on the cultivated one-acre piece — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can of land. be reached at 785-423-0668.

YOU’RE INVITED The public is invited to tour the KU Native Medicinal Plant Research Garden at 10 a.m. Saturday. The garden is located on Douglas County East 1600 Road, which is just north of U.S. Highway 40 and next to the Lawrence Municipal Airport.

A student community garden of vegetables, herbs and fruit trees is thriving. Westar Energy provided reclaimed lumber for a shade structure, and an art student planted a dye garden.

The student group Engineers Without Borders is working on a solar composting toilet, and an educational garden has even been planted for the children next door at Prairie Moon Waldorf School.

“By starting on this, we’ve had a lot of things that are spin-offs,” Kindscher said.

But the primary purpose of the garden is for research.

About 20 of the 70 plant species in the research garden are being grown in large enough quantities so they can be studied in chemistry labs, which requires about 20 pounds of the plant.

If needed, the program has another four acres for expansion.

“Our plan is if we f ind things that are interesting,

then we will need to grow out more of that,” Kindscher said.

Many of the plants that grow in the research garden were collected from the wild and are largely a mystery to modern day science. But technology has made them easier to study.

“They haven’t been looked out for their chemistry. And now our chemistry techniques are so much better.

We can screen a hundred plants at once for all sorts of different things,” Kindscher said.

The plants are also steeped in Native American tradition.

For instance, one of the mint varieties has been burned to provide relief on hot summer days, and sage is often used in sweat lodges to purify the body.

Those historical uses provide leads for researchers, Kindscher said.

The success of the garden is partially due to the students, both those from KU and Haskell Indian Nations University, who have spent many hours tending to it.

This summer, Lauren Service, a senior in environmental studies, scored a grant to work at the garden.

“This kind of contributes to a lot of what I believe in,” Service said. “Plants aren’t just here for visual reasons or chemical reasons. But plants are for people, too, so that we can use them for medicine and food. And that humans are part of nature.”

Weiner resigns amid sex scandal

By Karen Zraick and Andrew Miga Associated Press Writers

NEW YORK — Defiant and combative no longer, New York Rep. Anthony Weiner soberly announced his resignation from Congress on Thursday, bowing to the furor caused by his sexually charged online dalliances with a former porn actress and other women.

Democratic Party leaders, concerned that Weiner could weigh the party down in the 2012 elections, welcomed the announcement after days spent trying to coax, push and finally coerce the wayward 46-year-old into quitting. Known as brash, liberal and ambitious, Weiner had run for mayor of New York in 2005 and had been expected to do so again. He was in his seventh term in Congress.

At an appearance in Brooklyn that drew hecklers as well as supporters, Weiner apologized “for the personal mistakes I have made and the embarrassment I have caused,” particularly to his wife, Huma Abedin.

Pregnant with the couple’s first child, she was absent as she had been 10 days ago when Weiner first admitted sending inappropriate messages and photos to women online — after earlier denying emphatically he had done so.

In his brief farewell appearance, Weiner said he initially hoped the controversy would fade but then realized “the distraction that I have created has made that impossible.”

That conclusion echoed

ANTHONY WEINER ANNOUNCES HIS RESIGNATION from Congress during a news conference Thursday in Brooklyn, N.Y. Weiner resigned after a scandal spawned by lewd photos of himself that the New York lawmaker sent online to numerous women. party off icials who had become worried that the intense public focus on Weiner — and the Republican political rhetoric sure to follow — would complicate their campaign efforts in 2012.

“Congressman Weiner exercised poor judgment in his actions and poor judgment in his reaction to the revelations,” House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi said in a statement released moments after he spoke.

“Today, he made the right judgment in resigning.”

Weiner made his announcement at the same senior citizen center in Brooklyn where he announced his candidacy for the New York city council in 1992.

He declined to answer questions, leaving unaddressed whether he envi-

sioned his resignation as the end of a once-promising political career — or merely a painful pause of uncertain duration.

“Now I’ll be looking for other ways to contribute my talents so that we live up to that most New York and American of ideals,” he said.

Nor did he explain his presence in New York, several days after issuing a statement that said he was seeking treatment. Other Democrats said he had left the city to do so.

He had succeeded his mentor, Sen. Chuck Schumer, who vacated the seat to run for the Senate. The senator, one of a few prominent Democratic leaders who did not call for Weiner’s resignation, issued a statement saying the congressman “has served his community, city and country well for over two decades.”

Weiner’s departure marks the end of a bizarre period born of the New Yorker’s use of social media such as Twitter and Facebook.

His problems began on May 28 when a website run by conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart posted a lewd photograph of an underwear-clad crotch and said it had been sent from Weiner’s Twitter account to a Seattle woman.

And as the scandalous chapter neared its conclusion, a former pornography actress who exchanged emails and messages over Twitter with him said Wednesday at a news conference he had asked her to lie about their interactions.

Ginger Lee said she and Weiner exchanged about 100 emails between March and June after Lee posted a supportive statement about the congressman on her blog. He then contacted her on Twitter, Lee said. They mostly discussed politics, but he would often turn the conversation to sex, she said. “‘I have wardrobe demands, too. I need to highlight my package,”’ Weiner wrote Lee, in an email read aloud at the news conference

by Lee’s attorney.

Weiner’s initial reaction after the first photo became public more than two weeks ago was to lie, and he did so repeatedly, saying his Twitter account had been hacked.

But he pointedly did not report the incident to law enforcement — a step that could have opened him to charges of far more serious wrongdoing.

Economy gets small lift as layoffs ease

WASHINGTON (AP) — Fewer Americans applied for unemployment benefits last week and builders broke ground on more homes in May. The latest data offered some hope that the economy may be improving after hitting a slump in late spring.

Unemployment benef it applications fell to a seasonally adjusted 414,000, the Labor Department said. It was the second drop in three weeks and a positive sign that layoffs are slowing.

Still, applications have been above 400,000 for 10 straight weeks, evidence that the job market is weak compared to earlier this year.

Home construction rose last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 560,000 units per year, the Commerce Department said.

Economists say the pace of construction is far below the 1.2 million homes per year that must be built to sustain a healthy housing market. Many credit-strapped builders are struggling to compete with low-priced foreclosures.

The modest improvements in two of the economy’s most troubled areas were enough to give Wall Street a lift after a major sell-off the previous day. The Dow Jones industrial average gained 64 points in afternoon trading. Broader indexes also rose.

Investors seemed to look

past fears that Greece will be forced to default on its bonds — an event that could trigger another financial crisis — and a poor readout of manufacturing conditions in the Northeast from the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.

Unemployment applications had fallen in February to 375,000, a level that signals sustainable job growth. They stayed below 400,000 for seven of nine weeks. But applications surged in April to 478,000 — an eight-month high — and they have declined slowly since then.

Economists said the steady decline in unemployment applications signals that the job market is improving, but at a very slow pace.

“This is not a derailing of the economy,” said Bricklin Dwyer, an economist at BNP Paribas. “This is a period of weak growth, and we’re going to see this for some time.”

The elevated level of applications suggests that companies pulled back on hiring in the face of higher gas and food prices, which have cut into consumer spending. Hiring has slowed sharply since applications rose.

Employers added only 54,000 net new jobs in May, much slower than the average gain of 220,000 per month in the previous three months.

The unemployment rate rose to 9.1 percent from 9 percent.

Lawrence residents asked to help make push in Take Charge Challenge

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

In the battle to determine whether the Little Apple or the River City can save the most energy, Lawrence leaders have decided to shift fronts.

On Thursday, the latest standings in the Take Charge Challenge were released. The contest is a friendly competition pitting Lawrence and Manhattan against each other with the winner receiving $100,000 to spend on an energy efficiency project.

Thursday’s standings revealed that Lawrence lost the lead it had briefly gained in May. While Lawrence residents continue to outshine Manhattan in the number of home energy audits performed (166 to 42), they trail slightly in the per capita number of light bulbs that have been changed. In all, Lawrence residents have switched 17,393 incandescent light bulbs to compact fluorescent ones since the contest began in January.

Lawrence also lags in the percentage of the community that has participated in Take Charge Challenge events.

Manhattan has had 18 percent of its population involved while Lawrence has had 11 percent.

With just three and half months left before the end of the competition, city of Lawrence communications manager Megan Gilliland said it’s time to make some changes.

“Now we need to start looking at areas we haven’t focused on yet,” Gilliland said.

Here are three things residents can do that Lawrence leaders think will help win the Take Charge Challenge: ● Businesses should consider switching from T-12 fluorescent lighting to the more energy efficient T-8 lighting.

Just like switching to CFL bulbs, those changes can earn points by being registered online at takechargekansas .org. ● Along with light bulb switches, one of the categories in the competition measures how many resi-

dents install Westar’s WattSaver thermostat.

Customers can sign up to have a free, programmable thermostat installed in their home (it comes with a $300 value). Residents can control their thermostats from any computer connected to the Internet.

In return, Westar can cycle on and off air conditioners and heat pumps during the hottest days of the year to lessen the energy loads during the periods of highest demand.

By having 300 people sign up for the WattSaver thermostats, Lawrence could push ahead in the Take Charge Challenge, Gilliland said. ● Lawrence residents can help earn points in the third category by simply stopping by the Take Charge Challenge booth at downtown’s Final Fridays event June 24. Take Charge Challenge representatives will be at the Global Cafe, 820 Mass., from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m. Those stopping by can sign up for a raffle for a whole house lighting retrofit worth $800.

Al-Zawahri succeeds bin Laden as al-Qaida leader

By Hamza Hendawi Associated Press Writer

CAIRO — Osama bin Laden’s longtime second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahri, has taken control of al-Qaida, the group declared Thursday, marking the ascendancy of a man driven by hatred of the United States who helped plan the 9/11 attacks.

Al-Zawahri is considered the organizational brain of the terror group, highly skilled at planning and logistics. Analysts said he could set his sights on a spectacular attack and on building up alQaida’s already robust presence in Yemen to establish his leadership credentials.

His fanaticism and the depth of his hatred for the United States and Israel are likely to define al-Qaida’s actions under al-Zawahri’s tutelage. In a 2001 treatise that offered a glimpse of his violent thoughts, al-Zawahri set down al-Qaida’s strategy: to inflict “as many casualties as possible” on the Americans.

“Pursuing the Americans and Jews is not an impossible task,” he wrote. “Killing them is not impossible, whether by a bullet, a knife stab, a bomb or a strike with an iron bar.”

Al-Zawahri’s hatred of

America was also deeply personal: His wife and at least two of their six children were killed in a U.S. Al-Zawahri airstrike following the 2001 U.S. invasion of Afghanistan after the 9/11 attacks.

The Egyptian-born alZawahri had been expected to inherit al-Qaida’s leadership, although the delay in announcing his succession led some counterterrorism analysts to speculate about a power struggle following the May 2 killing of bin Laden in a U.S. raid in Pakistan.

“The general command of al-Qaida, after completing consultations, declares Abu Mohammed, Ayman alZawahri, God help him, the one leading the group,” said a statement attributed to alQaida and posted on militant websites, including several known to be affiliated with the group.

It gave no details about the selection process but said the choice of al-Zawahri was the best tribute to the memory of the group’s “martyrs.”

Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said the U.S. will pursue the new al-Qaida leader just as it did bin Laden.

“As we did both seek to capture and succeed in killing bin Laden, we certainly will do the same thing with Zawahri,” he said at a news conference in Washington.

Al-Zawahri, who turns 60 on Sunday and has a $25 million bounty on his head, takes control of al-Qaida at a time when it is struggling to stay relevant in the face of popular uprisings across the Arab world that are demanding Western-style democracy instead of the pan-Islamic nation sought by Islamists.

Still, the lawlessness gripping Yemen, a poor Arabian Peninsula nation, offers alQaida a rare opportunity to gain a strategic foothold in the Arab world, bringing it a step closer to the ability to export its extremist brand of Islam to the region.

“He will send his best f ighters and organizers there,” said Abdel-Rehim Ali, an Egyptian expert on terrorism and extremist Islamic groups. “Yemen is the closest target and a great start for alZawahri to realize his dream of an Islamic emirate.”

Al-Qaida militants and their allies in Yemen already have taken advantage of the turmoil there to seize control of towns in the south and strike deals with local garrisons to train with weaponry and live openly.

Al-Zawahri, a trained surgeon who hails from an upper-middle-class Cairo family, lacks the populist appeal of his late boss, throwing into doubt whether he would be able to lure young Muslims, particularly in the West, to join al-Qaida’s cause.

In Washington, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said al-Zawahri lacks the “peculiar charisma” of bin Laden and said there is suspicion about him among militants because he is Egyptian.

Lawmakers pan Obama claim on hostilities in Libya

By Donna Cassata Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — Republicans and Democrats on Thursday derided President Barack Obama’s claim that U.S. air attacks against Libya do not constitute hostilities and demanded that the commander in chief seek congressional approval for the 3-month-old military operation.

In an escalating constitutional fight, House Speaker John Boehner threatened to withhold money for the mission, pitting a Congress eager to exercise its power of the purse against a dug-in White House. The Ohio Republican signaled that the House could take action as early as next week.

“The accumulated consequence of all this delay, confusion and obfuscation has been a wholesale revolt in Congress against the administration’s policy,” said Sen. John McCain, the top Republican on the Armed Services Committee who has backed Obama’s actions against Libya.

The administration, in a report it reluctantly gave to

Congress on Wednesday, said that because the United States is in a supporting role in the NATO-led mission, American forces are not facing the hostilities that would require the president to seek such congressional consent under the War Powers Resolution.

The 1973 law prohibits the military from being involved in actions for more than 60 days without congressional authorization, plus a 30-day extension. The 60-day deadline passed last month with the White House saying it is in compliance with the law.

The 90-day mark is Sunday.

In the meantime, Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi has maintained his grip on power, and the White House says if the mission continues until September, it will cost $1.1 billion.

Instead of calming lawmakers, the White House report and its claims about no hostilities further inflamed the fierce balance-of-power fight.

“We have got drone attacks under way, we’re spending $10 million a day,” Boehner told reporters. “We’re part of an effort to drop bombs on

Gadhafi’s compound. It doesn’t pass the straight-face test, in my view, that we’re not in the midst of hostilities.”

Sen. Jim Webb, D-Va., a combat veteran and member of the Armed Services Committee, scoffed at the notion.

“Spending a billion dollars and dropping bombs on people sounds like hostilities to me,” Webb said.

Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., called the claims “really totally bizarre.” Rep. Tom Rooney, R-Fla., said telling Congress and Americans “that this is not a war insults our intelligence. I won’t stand for it and neither will my constituents.”

The White House pushed back, singling out Boehner and saying he has not always demanded that presidents abide by the War Powers Resolution. White House spokesman Jay Carney said Boehner’s views “stand in contrast to the views he expressed in 1999 when he called the War Powers Act ‘constitutionally suspect’ and warned Congress to ‘resist the temptation to take any action that would do further damage to the institution of the presidency.’”

Scientists ID flash in distant galaxy LOS ANGELES (A P ) — Astronomers think they have solved the mystery of an extraordinary flash spied in a faraway galaxy, saying it came from a massive black hole that devoured a star after it wandered too close.

The awesome energy released by the feeding frenzy was f irst detected by NASA’s Swift satellite on March 28 and was later confirmed by a fleet of space and ground telescopes.

Some scientists initially thought the bright flash was a gamma-ray burst from a star collapsing, but flaring from such an event typically lasts only a few hours.

Instead of fading, the cosmic outburst continued to burn bright and emit highenergy radiation that could be observed even today.

Two separate teams pored through data and concluded that an unsuspecting star the size of our sun likely got sucked in by the powerful tug of a giant black hole. Until then, the black hole had been relatively inactive. The findings were published online Thursday in the journal Science.

As the black hole gobbled up the star, it streamed a beam of energy straight at Earth that was recorded by telescopes. The stellar feast occurred in the heart of a galaxy 3.8 billion light years from Earth. A light year is about 6 trillion miles.

“This was clearly different than anything we’ve ever

Dividing lines School boundaries aren’t carved in stone, but local school officials shouldn’t be too quick to shift the dividing line between Lawrence’s two high schools.

O

n the eve of a new school board being seated, the issue of boundary lines for Free State and Lawrence high schools has surfaced again.

There is no strong groundswell for change, but school board members, including some joining the board next month, are willing to look at the options.

School Board Member Bob Byers pointed out at Monday’s meeting that “boundaries are not permanent.” That’s true, but boundary changes have an impact on students and families and, when the board makes a change, it should be for a good reason.

The high schools’ lone dividing line — the one that has stood for all 14 years since Free State opened northwest of Sixth Street and Folks Road — runs along 15th Street and Bob Billings Parkway. Students who live north of the boundary line attend Free State and those who reside to the south go to Lawrence High.

The east-west line was established in an effort to provide a relatively equal racial and socio-economic balance between the two schools. Nearly 15 years on, the decision appears to be a sound one, even if a good number of elementary school students split up for the three years of junior high before rejoining their friends and classmates in high school.

Maybe because of the junior high years, when some students make new friends who later go on to a different high school, our community’s public high school students are more friendly with those who attend their “rival” school. Along the way, they have been in clubs together, were teammates in sports and played in the same band. So, when they look across the football field during the annual LawrenceFree State game, they see friends.

Are there advantages to having all students from a given elementary school also attend the same junior high and high school? Maybe, but such a strategy also could lead to inequities from school to school, especially at the junior high and high school levels.

Today, Lawrence High has more students than Free State and a higher percentage of students who qualify for free and reduced lunches and more minority students. That is a situation the community should monitor, but it’s not necessarily a negative. If those factors affect student achievement, district officials should look at a variety of ways to address those concerns.

School board members can look at academics, demographics and other factors and see if there are any consistent trends that a high school boundary change might improve, but changes in the 15th Street line shouldn’t be undertaken lightly.

The entire community must benefit from whatever moves are made.

From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for June 17, 1911: “Since the action taken by Mayor Bishop and the city council at its meetYEARS ing last Monday night, there has been a AGO marked difference in the rate of speed IN 1911 indulged in by various auto drivers and motormen about the public streets of the city. With the speed limit fixed at eight miles an hour, many drivers have been in the habit of traveling at more than double this rate which resulted in much complaint being made against them.”

Stable transition will be difficult in Libya W A S H I N G T O N — The botched defection several months ago of Musa Kusa, Libya’s former foreign minister, illustrates the uncertain strategy that has plagued the NATO campaign against Col. Moammar Gaddafi.

But even so, the Gaddafi regime is feeling enough pressure to send an emissary to Washington this week to explore a possible negotiated settlement.

Kusa, a prominent member of Gaddafi’s inner circle, fled to Britain on March 30. His departure was initially touted as a major blow to the Libyan regime.

But new details suggest it was an ill-planned rush job that has backfired. Kusa left Britain in mid-April and is now under wraps in Doha, Qatar.

The financial assumptions in the Libya strategy may need reexamination too. The White House had hoped that, by this summer, Gaddafi’s regime would be running low on money and would begin to implode. But one insider says the Libyan strongman still has a stash of about $10 billion inside the country.

What has emerged is a stalemate between Gaddafi’s military forces and the rebel movement, calling itself the Transitional National Council, headquartered in Benghazi. Neither the rebels nor their NATO backers have had much success yet in encouraging powerful tribes to switch allegiance — which, analysts say, is the key to regime change there.

The U.S., France and other

What has emerged is a “stalemate between

Gaddafi’s military forces and the rebel movement, calling itself the Transitional National Council, headquartered in Benghazi.”

countries hope to tip the balance toward the TNC by recognizing it as the official representative of the Libyan people. But that has been a paper title, so far, and the TNC has been unable to lure enough “reconcilable” members of Gaddafi’s circle to form a coalition government.

The Libya standoff is prompting the new interest in a political settlement. Gaddafi’s intelligence chief, Abdullah al-Senussi, sent an emissary who will meet this week with a senior representative of the Obama administration. The message is that Gaddafi will give up power and retreat into the desert, while technocrats in his regime work with the TNC

to form a transitional government. Senussi, widely feared in Libya, would apparently also withdraw from power. The U.S. response couldn’t be learned.

The Kusa defection is a classic case of covert confusion. The Libyan official had originally planned to defect to France. A French intelligence officer is said to have contacted him on March 10 during a meeting of the African Union in Addis Ababa. A French intelligence official met him again on March 29 at the Royal Garden Hotel in Djerba, Tunisia, and pitched him about defecting, promising residency, financial help and legal immunity.

The French plan faltered the next morning after Paris demanded that, as part of the deal, Kusa appear publicly with President Nicolas Sarkozy when he arrived in Paris and denounce Gaddafi.

Kusa refused, and initiated frantic contacts with MI6 representatives in London about fleeing there. The British first asked for three days to work out details, but when Kusa said he had to leave immediately, MI6 hammered out the basics in several hours, and the Libyan flew to Farnborough Airport, southwest of London.

Kusa’s escape to Britain got off to a bad start. MI6 officers met him at the airport, but his visa paperwork wasn’t ready for several hours. The British weren’t demanding that Kusa publicly renounce Gaddaf i, but they weren’t offering him immunity from prosecution, either, in the

1988 Lockerbie bombing and 1984 shooting of a British policewoman. His debriefing at a safe house on the southern coast was rocky, in part because of the media frenzy about his defection — with Kusa reading tabloid headlines such as the Daily Mail’s description of him as Gaddafi’s “Fingernail-Puller-in-Chief.”

When Kusa’s passport was returned to him in mid-April, he promptly left for Qatar, nominally to attend a meeting of the “contact group” opposing Libya. He hasn’t left Doha since. The defection mishaps have been a “laughingstock” back in Libya, and undermined hopes of other recruitments, according to one intelligence source.

Whatever the NATO coalition’s miscues, the fact that Gaddafi’s circle has sent an emissary to Washington suggests that military pressure is slowly taking its toll. The problem is that because Libya’s tribal politics are so backward — CIA officers used to refer to the Libyan power elite as “the Flintstones” — a stable transition will be difficult. The TNC rebel movement still seems like a ragtag mix of ex-Gaddafi officials and Islamist militants.

If there’s a deal that can get Gaddafi out, end the fighting, unite the tribes and create a reasonably stable coalition government run by technocrats, the correct answer for the Obama administration would be “yes.”

California search raises alarm I bet you didn’t know that federal law enforcement officers representing the Department of Education (DOE) can break down your front door if you are suspected of violating the law.

I was not aware of this until I heard what happened to Kenneth Wright of Stockton, Calif. On June 7, at 6 a.m., Wright was awakened by a knock on his door. According to his account, he came downstairs in his boxer shorts, but before he could reach the door, federal police officers stormed in. They were looking for his estranged wife, who was not in the house.

Wright has no criminal record.

Wright told local TV station “News 10” he was grabbed by the neck and taken outside to his front lawn. He says officers then awakened his children, ages 3, 7 and 11, and put them in a Stockton patrol car while his house was searched.

“They put me in handcuffs in that hot patrol car for six hours, traumatizing my kids,” he said.

DOE spokesman Justin Hamilton told the TV station that federal agents with the Office of Inspector General (OIG) served the search warrant. Hamilton would not say why the raid took place, but he said it was not because someone had defaulted on student loans, as some local media initially reported.

A statement from the OIG said: “The reasons for our search warrant are currently under seal by the court and cannot be discussed publicly.” The statement added: “OIG ... is responsible for the detection and prevention of waste, fraud, abuse and criminal activity involving Department of Education funds, programs and operations.” If they were consistent, they’d be breaking down the doors of many failing public schools that are wast-

a gang of cops, acting “onIfbehalf of the

Department of Education, can break down your door in possible violation of the Fourth Amendment, then none of us is safe.” ing taxpayer funds and allow especially poor and minority children out so they can choose better schools and have a brighter future.

Constitutional attorney John Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute in Charlottesville, Va. (Rutherford.org), says the Stockton incident is one of a growing number of examples threatening the Fourth Amendment, which guarantees “the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures ...”

Whitehead says the passage of the U.S. Patriot Act “opened the door to other kinds of invasions” beyond the search for terrorist suspects.

Worse, the courts are increasingly approving this cozy association between government and the police. “The problems inherent in these situations,” he says, “are further compounded by the fact that SWAT teams are granted ‘no-knock’ warrants at high rates, such that the

warrants themselves are rendered practically meaningless.”

Two recent cases demonstrate the threat. In an 8-1 Supreme Court ruling last month (Kentucky v. King), Whitehead says the court “effectively decimated the Fourth Amendment by giving police more leeway to break into homes or apartments without a warrant when in search of illegal drugs which they suspect might be destroyed if notice were given.”

In the other ruling, the Indiana Supreme Court (Barnes v. State) said people do not have the right to resist police officers entering their homes illegally. Resistance, notes Whitehead, can be as simple as saying, “Wait, this is my home.

What’s this about?”

If governments are permitted to slowly erode the Fourth Amendment and the public won’t resist, then not only that amendment, but others protecting speech, religion, the right to keep and bear arms and who knows what else could be in jeopardy.

Incidents like the one in Stockton should cause conservatives and liberals to be more vigilant about the encroaching power of government.

If a gang of cops, acting on behalf of the Department of Education, can break down your door in possible violation of the Fourth Amendment, then none of us is safe.

The New York Times reports the FBI’s approximately 14,000 agents are being given “significant new powers” that will allow them more freedom to search databases, examine your trash and use surveillance teams to scrutinize the lives of people who attract their attention.

Worried now?

— Cal Thomas is a columnist for Tribune Media Services.

To the editor: My wife and I just spent the better part of three days in Lawrence and loved being there. We stayed at the Eldridge (loved the restaurant and bar) so could just walk out the front door and head to shopping or dining or, in my case, the Lawrence Arts Center for a meeting. Walking up and down Massachusetts Street is a treat. The buildings are interesting as are the stores and restaurants. Spectators, Wink, the Dusty Bookshelf, Love Garden Sounds, Waxman and the restaurant 715 were all terrific. Many communities do not have vibrant downtown cores; Lawrence does. And we noticed the city is investing in the continued beauty by improving the streetscape.

We are looking forward to our next trip.

Art Thompson Lincoln, Neb.

Phelps parallel?

To the editor: This letter is in reference to the Leonard Pitts Jr. column published in the June 6 Journal-World, “Dancing spurs legal overreaction.”

In 2008, Mary Brook Oberwetter and some friends were arrested for doing a silent interpretative dance at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, D.C. Oberwetter sued.

“Last month,” Pitts wrote, “a federal court dismissed the case, ruling the government is not required to allow ‘the full range of free expression’ in a space built for ‘a solemn commemorative purpose.’”

What is more solemn commemorative space than a combat soldier’s gravesite?

Yet the Supreme Court ruled that Fred Phelps and his brood of hagglers can demonstrate in a manner they choose. Can Fred and family do in Washington, D.C, at the National Cemetery as they do in small town U.S.A.?

Corps repairing levee it blew up in SE Mo. CHARLESTON , M O. (AP) — Southeast Missouri farmers were elated over news that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would quickly repair the Birds Point levee that was intentionally breached in early May to relieve flooding upriver.

“They’re doing backflips as we speak,” Mississippi County Presiding Commissioner Carlin Bennett said about the news. “It’s a temporary levee, it’s not a permanent fix. But we’re so glad that something is finally going to be done.”

Gov. Jay Nixon announced Wednesday that the corps was mobilizing the Memphis District to rebuild the three breach points in the levee to 51 feet, which is nearly a foot lower than it was when the corps blew parts of it up. Bennett said the lower level is enough to offer farmers flood protection as they go back to work in their fields.

“If the area were to flood again, it would put a lot of people out of business,” he told the Southeast Missourian.

The corps said work on the levee began Thursday after-

noon and that crews would stabilize the three intentionally breached sections of the levee and also repair areas affected by water running over them.

“The main purpose of this construction work is to establish a safe road for official use only over the areas of the frontline levee that were impacted by the operation of the floodway,” Jim Pogue, the corps’ Memphis district spokesman, said in a news release. He said those repairs would be a base for future permanent repairs.

The levee was breached to relieve pressure on the floodwall in Cairo, Ill., sparing the town but inundating about 130,000 acres of Missouri farmland.

Nixon said the decision to rebuild by Maj. Gen. Michael Walsh, commander of the corps’ Mississippi Valley Division — and the man who ordered the levee to be breached — was “absolutely critical” for the farmers in the area who needed protection to get new crops in during the current growing season.

Firebird trio part of all-star setback

By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

BELTON, MO. — Over the course of their careers at Free State High, Justin McCandless, Dylan Perry and Preston Schenck learned to hate the best players on their Sunflower League opponents.

After being selected to the Kansas all-star team for the MoKan All-Star Game, the three were forced to confront some of their rivals for 10 days of practice.

“The first day or two, everyone was kind of shy and awkward,” Schenck said. “We were just like, ‘I remember that kid. I hated having to go up against him.’”

Even though Kansas lost to Missouri, 21-13, in Thursday night’s game at Belton High, all three left with new friends and grins on their faces.

When McCandless, Perry and Schenck — all set to play for Baker University this fall — met their adversaries from the high school season, they found out that the bad guys weren’t all that bad.

“Once you get time to actually get to know them, they’re all really good people,” Perry said.

All three were honored to be selected.

McCandless played right guard for the entire game. Perry rotated in as the quarterback. As the free safety, Schenck roamed the secondary. He also helped on special teams.

Perry had a chance to lead Kansas to a potentially gametying score.

McIlroy surges to early Open lead B E T H E S D A , M D . ( AP ) — Rory McIlroy is becoming a master at these major championships.

At least on Thursday.

Showing no linger effects from a Sunday collapse at the Masters, the 22-year-old McIlroy made the toughest test in golf look like child’s play at Congressional with a 6-under 65 to build the biggest 18-hole lead at the U.S. Open in 35 years.

He missed only one green. He was the only player in the 156man field without a single bogey.

And just like that, McIlroy wound up atop the leaderboard after the opening round for the third time in the last four majors.

“It felt like quite a simple 65,” McIlroy said. “I didn’t do much wrong.”

The trouble has been finishing them off.

There were questions about how McIlroy would respond

Nearly 150 hurt in Vancouver riot VANCOUVER , B.C. (AP) — Almost 150 people required hospital treatment and close to 100 were arrested after rioters swept through downtown Vancouver following the Canucks’ loss to the Boston Bruins in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup final.

Vancouver Coastal Health spokeswoman Anna Marie D’Angelo said Thursday that three stabbing victims had been admitted, and a man was in critical condition with head injuries after a fall from a viaduct. Rioting and looting left cars burned, stores in shambles and windows shattered over a roughly 10-block radius of the city’s main shopping district.

It was similar to the scene that erupted in 1994 following the Canucks’ Game 7 loss to the New York Rangers, but the latest violence shocked Canadians unaccustomed to such riots.

Police Chief Jim Chu said nine officers were injured, including one who required 14 stitches after being hit with a brick and some who had bite marks. He said 15 cars were burned, including two police cars. A local business leader estimated more than 50 businesses were damaged.

Chu called those who incited the riot “criminals and anarchists,” and officers identified some in the crowd as the same people who

smashed windows and caused trouble through the same streets the day after the 2010 Winter Olympics opened.

“These were people who came equipped with masks, goggles and gasoline,” Chu said. “They had a plan.”

In Boston, five men arrested during celebrations of the Bruins’ win appeared in municipal court Thursday.

Police said one man encouraged a crowd near TD Garden to turn on police and dared officers to arrest him.

Authorities said he shouted obscenities, took off his shirt and threw his belt at the officers. He

was arrested on charges including inciting a riot.

Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson said “organized hoodlums bent on creating chaos incited the riot” in his city, while city councilor Suzanne Anton said the rioting has shaken Vancouver and overshadowed the hockey team’s playoff run.

“I would never have believed that Vancouver would be a city where there would be looting,” she said. “I just feel such a profound sense of disappointment. We like to think we live in paradise here in Vancouver. It’s hard to imagine here.”

Anton said there was no loss of life or police brutality.

“. . . (It’s an honor for me just to have his name mentioned with mine,” said Larry Bird this week about Dirk Nowitzki.

Put my response down as “Wow.” We will call it a “resurrection,” because from the standpoint of perception, maybe even more local than national, The Dirk did resurrect his basketball career over the past nine weeks.

Think about that. In the world of pro sports, how many careers have been forever altered, from a positive standpoint, 13 years into it?

But those Bird comments?

Be it the MVP award for the NBA finals, be it the world championship ring that’s coming for all the Mavericks, be it “everything” else The Dirk has accomplished in a decade-plus, mark “it’s an honor for me just to have his name mentioned with mine” is a quote that puts the gravy on the chicken fried steak.

When The Dirk was 20 years old, first arriving in a foreign country (Texas) with a bad haircut and an oversized earring, the Bird comparisons had already started.

It was the ultimate compliment, of course, but those Bird comparisons also became the ball-and-chain that hung forever around The Dirk’s neck.

He’s no Larry Legend, right?

I’d say no, but also say this about Bird: He’s not a guy who now does many interviews and he’s not a Hall of Famer who loosely throws around compliments about today’s players.

As a player, Bird always spoke frankly, and was also known as one of the most fierce competitors ever, plus one of the most legendary trash-talkers on the court.

But when he agreed to come on local ESPN radio Wednesday, Bird was loose, funny and, as someone who doesn’t know Larry Bird, I can only guess on this, but he seemed to be speaking from the heart.

When the “comparisons” question was asked on 103.3 radio, Bird said, “I don’t get into that. That’s for other people to debate. I just know that I love his game. I like his demeanor on the court, the way that he loves to play.

“You can compare him to me if you want to. I’m just happy for the young man, and it’s an honor for me to just have his name mentioned with mine.”

Granted, there will be those who scoff at that comment, claiming that Bird was simply “being nice.”

But it doesn’t matter. Winning a world championship, being named the finals’ MVP and now the Bird comment, all fit nicely into the resurrection of The Dirk’s basketball perception.

I’ve always maintained The Dirk’s harshest critics were a local fandom as opposed to the national audience.

And watching everything that has happened in his career, particularly in the last five years, can anyone claim there weren’t doubts about The Dirk being able to lead the Mavs out of the basketball wilderness and into the throne room?

Don’t start lying to me. Sure, the doubts surfaced at times, particularly after the dark days following what happened in the finals of 2006. Then there were four more years of those dark days that continued into this season. “Can they win it all with Dirk?” became an ongoing local question that even surpassed “Can the Cowboys win with Romo?”

As the former coach and now as president of the Indiana Pacers, Bird said Wednesday he had seen Dirk play in high school in Germany and thought that Nowitzki “had it all,” basketball-wise.

Well, not exactly. Not in the beginning, and certainly not for the first half of his career. All this changed over 13 years. And that change finally hit home this season.

SMOKE PLUMES RISE from police cars set on fire following Vancouver’s loss to Boston in the Stanley Cup final on Wednesday in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Baggy pants lead to player’s arrest SAN FRANCISCO — A University of New Mexico football player’s saggy pants led to his arrest and removal from an airplane at San Francisco International Airport, authorities said Thursday.

DeShon Marman, 20, was boarding a flight Wednesday to Albuquerque, N.M., when a US Airways employee noticed his pants were below his buttocks, and his boxer shorts were showing, Sgt. Michael Rodriguez of the San Francisco Police Department told the San Francisco Chronicle.

Marman refused the employee’s request to pull up his pants and failed to comply immediately when she asked him to get off the plane, Rodriguez said, adding Marman injured a police officer when he was being arrested.

The player was arrested on suspicion of trespassing, battery of a police officer and obstruction of a police investigation, Rodriguez told the Associated Press.

Marman’s mother, Donna Doyle, told the newspaper her son was emotionally fragile after the funeral of his close friend, who died 11 days after being shot.

A US Airways spokesperson said the airline forbids inappropriate attire.

The NBA received the highest grade ever issued on racial and gender hiring practices among men’s professional leagues, continuing a recent trend.

The league received an A+ for race and an A- on gender for a combined A in this year’s Racial and Gender Report Card from the Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport at the University of Central Florida.

While the NFL and Major League Baseball have shown significant improvement on racial and gender hiring in recent years, the NBA is the only men’s pro league to receive a combined A. TIDES has been studying diversity hiring in sports since 1987.

“I think it’s the leadership of (NBA Commissioner) David Stern,” said Dr. Richard Lapchick, director of TIDES.

Transfer eyes KU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Former Loyola Marymount University basketball player Kevin Young, who attended classes at Barstow (Calif.)

Community College during the 2010-11 school year, made an unofficial recruiting visit to Kansas University this week.

Young, a 6-foot-8, 215pound forward out of Perris (Calif.) High, has two years of collegiate eligibility remaining. The San Diego Union-Tribune reports that he signed a financial aid agreement with San Diego State last November. Athletes are allowed to sign just one letter-of-intent per their college careers.

Young averaged 10.9 points and 5.5 rebounds per game during his sophomore season at LMU after averaging 9.1 points and 7.2 boards his freshman season. He hit 45.4 percent of his shots in two seasons (242-533), including 27.3 percent of his threes (38139). He owns freshman records at LMU for rebounds, steals and blocks.

He moved on to Barstow CC, where he also was a member of Reggie Howard’s coaching staff.

“He’s a tremendous athlete that plays above the rim,” Howard told

KEVIN YOUNG WATCHES THE ALUMNI SCRIMMAGE at Bill Self’s basketball camp Wednesday at Horejsi Center. sandiegostate.rivals.com.

“He's a quiet kid. I call him the ‘Quiet Assassin.’ He's got speed and he plays at 100 percent.

He's easy to coach and open to things. If he makes a mistake, he still plays hard. He’ll make several plays above the rim.”

Playing for Puerto Rico, Young averaged 7.7 points and 5.0 rebounds a game in the

2009 U19 World Championship in Auckland, New Zealand. He hit 55.2 percent of his shots overall and scored 18 points with 12 boards against Lithuania. Young, who reportedly is leaning heavily toward committing to KU, averaged 16.1 points and 10.8 rebounds and 3.7 blocks a game his senior season at Perris High.

UNOFFICIAL BOX SCORE

Mo-Kan CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

On first and second down, Perry hit his intended receiver in the hands, but the ball tumbled to the turf. Blue Valley’s PJ DeBey caught Perry’s throw on third down, but the referee ruled DeBey out of bounds.

Kansas was forced to punt, and Missouri effectively drained the clock, securing the victory.

Perry said he felt a little pressure.

“The cool thing about this game is that it really didn’t matter too much,” Perry said.

“It was really about just having fun. And I think that’s what everybody did for the most part.”

Perry finished 3-for-8 with 13 yards through the air and picked up 11 yards on the ground.

Schenck recorded a couple of nice tackles — one saving a likely touchdown.

McCandless opened up holes on the line for Kansas’ talented running backs to scoot through.

Oakland roughs up Royals OAKLAND , C ALIF . (AP) — Jemile Weeks played through some nerves, Gio Gonzalez played through an illness, and the Oakland Athletics played well enough for their first series win under interim manager Bob Melvin.

Weeks had two hits and drove in three runs, and Hideki Matsui homered to lead the Oakland Athletics to an 8-4 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Thursday.

Matsui’s solo blast gave him a combined 499 homers in Japan and the U.S. and helped Oakland win a second straight game for the first time since a four-game streak May 26-29.

“The first couple of days were shaky from nerves and I just tried to stay confident,” said Weeks, hitting .344 (11 for 32) since his June 7 callup.

“I’m just going out there and playing as hard as I can.”

Melky Cabrera had two hits and drove in a run for the Royals, who lost their second straight. Jeff Francoeur, Wilson Betemit and Brayan Pena each added an RBI. “He was establishing his fastball and left it up in the zone and we were chasing it,” said Francoeur, who also struck out four times. “That’s not a good combination, especially when you throw 94 miles an hour like he does.”

Daric Barton drove in two runs, and Coco Crisp and Kurt Suzuki each had an RBI in support of Gio Gonzalez (6-5), who ended a personal threegame slide for his first win since May 17.

“There were a couple of innings where I had to sit down and take a deep breath,” Gonzalez said. “My throat is a little sore and I feel a little weak but I didn’t want to show any weakness.”

Gonzalez allowed two runs on five hits over six innings. He walked two and struck out 10.

“He’s usually pretty animated and he was subdued,” Melvin said. “You could tell he was feeling it.”

Jeff Francis (3-7) gave up a season-high six runs on nine hits over 31⁄3 innings, his second- shortest outing of the season. He walked two and did not strike out a batter in a game for the first time.

“I was falling behind guys in certain situations and that doesn’t do me any good,” Francis said.

U.S. Open. You can’t be thinking about what’s happened before. You’ve got to just be thinking about this week, and how you can best prepare, and how you can get yourself around the golf course.”

He took a route unlike any other player on an overcast day with a few light showers just as he finished up his round.

McIlroy was three shots clear of former PGA champion Y.E. Yang and Charl Schwartzel, the South African

who captured the Masters two months ago at McIlroy’s expense.

“It’s a long way to go, but it’s nice to get yourself in contention,” Schwartzel said. “If you start falling too far behind on a tough golf course, things can get a little bit too far in front of you. You need to stay in there with a chance.”

British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen was at 69, joining a small group that included Sergio Garcia and Ryan Palmer, the lone Ameri-

can among the nine players who broke 70.

Defending champion Graeme McDowell had a 70.

Phil Mickelson played alongside McIlroy, and it must have looked familiar. The last time the U.S. Open came to Congressional in 1997, Mickelson played with Colin Montgomerie, who also shot Boys Junior Amateur Thursday at Salina Municipal 65.

“It’s coming fast,” Schenck said.

After the players turn in their borrowed Free State helmets, they will have officially moved on from their high school careers.

“It’s going to be a little weird,” McCandless said.

BASEBALL MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Yankees outlast Rangers, 3-2, in 12 innings The Associated Press

American League Yankees 3, Rangers 2, 12 innings N EW Y ORK — Journeyman Brian Gordon kept the Yankees close in a most unlikely start, then Brett Gardner hit a winning single in the 12th inning that sent New York past Texas for a three-game sweep Thursday.

The Yankees became the first team to sweep AL champion Texas this year. New York won for the sixth time in seven tries and sent the Rangers to their season-worst fifth loss in a row.

Gardner’s one-out hit off Michael Kirkman (1-1) ended an afternoon that began with baseball’s latest feel-good story.

Orioles 4, Blue Jays 3 TORONTO — Jeremy Guthrie pitched five shutout innings before a strained back forced him to leave the game, and Baltimore scored two runs in the ninth inning before holding off Toronto.

Vladimir Guerrero and Luke Scott opened the ninth with back-to-back singles against Toronto closer Jon Rauch. Derek Lee followed with a swinging bunt that Blue Jays third baseman Jayson Nix charged on, but Nix’s throw home was high, allowing pinch-runner Nolan Reimold to score for a 3-2 Orioles lead.

Red Sox 4, Rays 2 ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. — Adrian Gonzalez homered, and David Ortiz, Darnell McDonald and Dustin Pedroia drove in runs to back starter Clay Buchholz and lead Boston to a victory over Tampa Bay. The win was the 11th in 12 games for the AL East leaders, who concluded a 10-day, ninegame trip with an 8-1 record — Boston’s best mark on a trip of at least nine games since 1977.

1 The Red Sox retained a 1 ⁄2game lead over the New York Yankees in the division and dropped the third-place Rays 1 5 ⁄2 off the pace by rebounding from losing the opener of the three-game series to win the final two.

Braves 9, Mets 8, 10 innings ATLANTA — D.J. Carrasco’s balk in the 10th inning gave Atlanta a victory over New York.

Diory Hernandez doubled with two outs in the 10th and took third after first baseman Lucas Duda mishand l e d Jo rd a n S c h a fe r ’s grounder.

With Jason Heyward at the plate, Carrasco (0-2) clearly stopped and then restarted his motion as he prepared to deliver a pitch. Plate umpire James Hoye called the balk as Heyward celebrated at the plate.

Daughter should ignore dad’s demand for money

Dear Daughter: Unless Dad is planning to take you to court for that money, we think you should ignore his demand. It is mean-spirited and punitive. Some disturbed and misguided parents try to hurt the ex-spouse by going

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

to me, my sister asked me to mail it back. I did.

Is there some rule of etiquette about what happens to gifts you give to parents? Is my brother entitled to take this back because he was the one who gave it to them? Or can the surviving parent give it to whomever he chooses? It made me sad to return it, because I knew I wouldn’t be able to enjoy that memory of my mother again. — Just Wondering

after the children. We hope Dad will calm down, and Dear Wondering: When a while you’re waiting, please gift is given, it belongs to the consider both legal and emotional counsel. Your college counseling department should be able to help.

Apparently, there is a sizable and growing television audience who see the 1984 comedy “Ghostbusters” as a kind of documentary. Or maybe, a career inspiration.

And this fanciful realm of ghost detectives has broken itself into professionals and amateurs. A new series “Paranormal Challenge” (8 p.m., Travel) offers the untrained and apparently “unaccredited” a chance at an apprenticeship of sorts.

Hosted by Zak Bagans of “Ghost Adventures” fame, “Challenge” invites amateur spook sleuths to sites considered haunted, arms them with appropriate gadgetry and sets them loose amid the ectoplasm. The team that returns with the most “evidence” is declared the winner. And in a fitting twist, the night’s champion will receive neither prize nor title. The winner’s sole compensation will be a newfound “respect” in the community of paranormal believers. And we all know that’s worth twice its weight in pixie dust! ● As somebody who has to churn out a column every day, I have nothing but sympathy for cable programmers trying to entertain viewers and maintain their network’s mission and identity day after 24hour day. But sometimes cable stations slip and lose their focus.

I always wondered how Planet Green would come up with a steady supply of ecologically oriented series. But I never dreamed it would be airing shows like “UFOs Over Phoenix” (7 p.m.); “Return to Area 51” (8 p.m.); and “Nazi UFO Conspiracy” (9 p.m.)! Unless it defines these as shows about little green men. ● Jimmy Kaplow, aka “Flea Man” (7 p.m., National Geographic), has spent his professional life haggling for treasures at yard and estate sales and wants to pass on his wisdom.

He offers simple rules that apply to transactions big and small: Find out what buyers want and make a personal connection with them. And above all, know your product, whether it’s a toy tractor or a luxury car. He’s equally emphatic about things to avoid: Never waste time on folks who don’t seem interested in buying.

Move on! And never, ever get sentimental and lose sight of what things are worth.

Using these strategies, he helps families get rid of the items they don’t need and get the cash necessary for more pressing matters.

In the first installment (7 p.m.), Jimmy tries to help a family liquidate a house filled with inherited antiques to cover their daughter’s medical school tuition.

Episode two (8 p.m.) features a Bible linked to George Washington and a lesson in haggling over vintage Barbie dolls.

Tonight’s other highlights ● Ed takes a bullet on the way to the maternity ward on “Flashpoint” (7 p.m., CBS). ● Coach Taylor tells Vince that he’s got to put the team first on “Friday Night Lights” (7 p.m., NBC). ● A dashboard becomes a crime scene on “Bones” (7 p.m., Fox). ● Jamie Lee Curtis appears on “Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution” (8 p.m., ABC). ● The new vessel Gojira comes to the rescue on “Whale Wars” (8 p.m., Animal Planet). ● Agents hunt for Baby Grace on “FBI: Criminal Pursuit” (9 p.m., Discovery ID).

Universal Crossword Edited by Timothy E. Parker June 17, 2011

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Friday, June 17: This year, emphasize key issues and people in your life. Though you are a sign that seems to go from one topic to the next, your focus will be penetrating. If you are single, you will meet someone quite special. Don't allow your relationship to move too fast.

If you are attached, this year you share on a very deep level, adding to the heat of the bond. Capricorn is an anchor.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ People have expectations that you can barely meet. On one level, you need to discuss an investment with a family member. Tonight: Happy to head home.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ Once more, it is what you say and how you say it that determines the end results. Try to detach and understand where someone is coming from. Tonight: Share with friends.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★★ You might want to review a personal situation more carefully. A partner gives feedback that makes you feel very

recipient, who can then do with it as he or she chooses. In many instances, however, people who are cleaning out their belongings often return items to the original givers. You did the right thing returning the nativity set to your brother. It obviously means as much to him as it does to you, and we are certain that fighting over it would not have pleased Mom. Bravo for taking the high road.

Dear Annie: My mother passed away last year. When my sisters put up the Christmas decorations for Dad, they asked if I wanted a nativity set. I said “yes,” and they mailed it to me. I really enjoyed looking at it last Christmas. It was a lovely reminder of my mother.

A few weeks ago, my brother decided he wanted that same nativity set and called my sister to see if she knew where it was. Apparently, he had given it to my parents many years before and wanted to take it overseas with him. Instead of telling my brother that she had given it

good. Tonight: Treat someone to munchies and a drink.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ Defer to others and listen to what they share. A meeting could become a social happening at the last minute. Invite a family member, loved one or friend to join you after work. Tonight: Go along for the ride.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★ Stay even and level with a boss who keeps making requests.

You could get overwhelmed quickly. News from a distance proves to be a real eye-opener.

Tonight: Mix in a walk or some exercise.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★★ Don't share all your ideas with a partner.

He or she might misinterpret what you are saying.

You don't want to create a problem, do you? Tonight: Ever playful. It is the weekend, you know!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★ Let go of worry.

It is getting you nowhere fast. Relax and share with someone you respect.

Tonight: Stay close to home.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★ Say the right words, and someone could acquiesce. Others make an effort. They each have their own reasons, and

might not be as clear as you would like. Tonight: Hang out.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21) ★★★★ Listen to what is happening between you and another person. A conversation could point you in a new direction. A friend could be unusually somber or touchy. Tonight: Your treat.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★★ Consider a risk and be creative. News comes in from others. How you put together your needs with another person's reflects your interpersonal skills. Tonight: All smiles. The world is your oyster.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★ Continue to maintain a low profile. Your sense of direction tells you to go off and do something you have always wanted to do. Tonight: Knock your socks off.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ Zero in on what you want. Others would be only too pleased to not only pave your path, but to celebrate your success at the end. Tonight: Where your friends are.

Dear Annie: My father is a dentist and earns a good living, but he is going after my money. When I graduated from high school, he took the money relatives and friends sent me and kept it for himself. A year later, he and Mom were going through a divorce, and he subpoenaed my work records to find out what I was earning. Their divorce was finally settled, but when Dad found out I was awarded a partial college scholarship of $980, he wanted “his share.”

Mom and Dad both paid for my college tuition, but I worked hard to earn that small scholarship so I could stand on my own two feet. I am frustrated and a little disgusted with my father’s greed.

Shouldn’t he feel proud of his daughter’s accomplishment instead of trying to steal it?

His true colors came out during the divorce, and I took my mother’s side. Now he apparently has divorced me, as well.

I support myself and don’t believe he is entitled to my money. What should I do? — Spurned Daughter
