City leaders approve plans for library expansion

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Cromwell

A see-through parking garage and a terra cotta-inspired library sound like a good beginning to the next chapter of an expanded Lawrence Public Library.

Commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting unanimously approved “concept plans” for a $19 million expansion of the public library, including the idea of a parking garage covered by a perforated steel mesh and a li-

brary with an entirely new facade.

“I think for the money we’re spending, we’re getting a tremendous signature facility,” said Mayor Aron Cromwell.

Tuesday’s approval allows Lawrence-based

Gould Evans architects to draw up more specific plans that ultimately can be put out for bid in about the next seven months.

Many of the design basics have been set by what library leaders promised voters during

last November’s election: 20,000 square feet of new space, a doubling of children’s area space, a doubling of space for meeting rooms, space for 100 additional public computers and a parking garage for at least 250 cars.

But details about how the building and parking garage at Seventh and Vermont streets actually will look have drawn more discussion from neighbors and the city’s library board.

Lawrence resident Ranita Wilks has heard the horror stories about women with disabilities who have had such humiliating experiences during a doctor’s appointment that they didn’t go back.

Sometimes, it’s an issue of not having a mammogram machine that’s adjustable or a restroom that’s not wheelchair accessible. Sometimes, it’s a provider’s attitude or lack of education. Wilks said a woman with cerebral palsy didn’t go back for a Pap smear after her doctor told her she would

Independence Inc. and Health Care Access have teamed up to offer a free class on how to become an educated medical consumer.

It will be from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. today at Independence Inc., 2001 Haskell Ave. Participants will receive course notes and a book, “What To Do When Your Child Gets Sick.”

The class is open to anyone and will address the following questions:

Do you leave the doctor’s office having more questions than when you entered?

Do you feel you want to take a more active role with your doctor when communicating about your disability?

Do you wonder whether your symptoms justify a trip to the doctor?

Do you need help knowing where to get resources before going to the doctor?

About 10 years later, she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer.

Wilks, 44, who suffered a spinal cord injury at age 4 and uses a wheelchair, also has had difficult experiences. She shared them during a oneon-one interview at Independence Inc. in Lawrence, where she works as an independent living skills specialist.

A panel studying the safety of Kansas Highway 10 east of Lawrence will ask the state to install two stretches of cable-median barriers near Eudora and De Soto and farther east in Johnson County, two committee members told the Journal-World Tuesday.

“All we can do is get the facts and make the best decision we can possibly make. I think we’re on the right road for this,” said Eudora Mayor Scott Hopson, a committee member. “We’re hopefully going to get these barriers in the right locations.”

The possible installation of the barriers on the busy commuter highway in Douglas and Johnson counties has been a hot topic for the Kansas Department of Transportation since a deadly April 16 cross-median crash near Eudora. Two Eudora residents, including 5-year-old Cainan Shutt, died in the accident.

Brownback Soon after the crash, Hopson wrote to Gov. Sam Brownback asking him to direct KDOT to install the barriers for 23 miles — between Lawrence and Interstate 435 in Johnson County.

Brownback ordered KDOT to work with local stakeholders to study cable barriers and the highway’s safety.

Last summer Johnson County commissioners initiated a proposal for a pilot project that would have KDOT install cable-median barriers along K-10 at a two-mile stretch near the Kansas Highway 7 intersection and a one-mile stretch near Eudora because of the deadly and serious crashes that have occurred in those areas in the last decade.

Two Johnson County women were also injured in a cross-median crash in July near Kansas Highway 7.

That project was estimated to cost $125,000 per mile with Johnson County picking up 20 percent of the cost in its county.

Now Johnson County Commissioner Jim Allen, who also wants cable along the whole 23-mile stretch, said the K-10 committee has extended its recommendation for a cable-median barrier from Eudora east to Lexington Avenue in De Soto.

“I think KDOT wants to see a demonstration that cables actually work,” Allen said.

The local committee is also expected to ask KDOT to lobby the Kansas Legislature to designate K-10 as a safety corridor — a program modeled after other states — making the highway eligible for higher fines for traffic violations and additional enforcement.

KDOT officials said Deputy Secretary Jerry Younger, the state transportation engineer, would meet with committee members at 10:30 a.m. today at the Eudora Community Center, 1628 Elm St.

Regulations can reduce risk of deadly explosions at grain elevators

By Michael J. Crumb and Roxana Hegeman Associated Press

WICHITA — No one needs to tell Steven Stallbaumer about the dangers of working in grain elevators.

He was unloading fertilizer outside a Kansas elevator in 1998 when it exploded, killing seven workers. The blast

knocked Stallbaumer underneath a railroad car, and he figures that saved his life. A big motor fell from the top of the elevator and landed beside the dump truck where he had been working.

“All I heard is a boom, boom,” Stallbaumer said.

A similar blast killed six people last weekend at the Bartlett Grain Co. elevator

“We do work in a very dangerous environment, and unfortunately there have been accidents,” said Darwin Franzen, the general manager at Farmer’s Cooperative Co. in Hinton, Iowa. “You try as hard as you can, but sometimes there is something that causes these terrible accidents to occur.”

Farmers take corn and other grain to elevators to be stored and sometimes processed before it’s marketed and sold. There are more than 10,000 commercial grain-handling operations nationwide, with large numbers in Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska and Texas. Fine, highly combustible dust particles flow through the buildings as

the grain is moved. A spark from equipment or an overheated bearing on a conveyor can ignite the dust, sending a pressure wave that detonates the rest of the dust floating in the facility.

Specifically, there are two major design elements related to the exterior. Plans call for the parking garage, which would be at least 3.5 stories tall, to have a perforated steel or aluminum exterior that would be unique in downtown. Architects said they were recommending the material because it would allow light and air to better enter the garage.

On the library itself, architects are proposing that a new exterior shell be built for the entire existing library building. The new exterior design includes large amounts of terra cotta stone and an almost random pattern of long, horizontal windows. Architects said their studies found that new exterior walls were the best way to improve the energy efficiency of the approximately 40-year-old building.

wanted or talking about her options.

“She just assumed that I wasn’t going to be a mom,” Wilks said, with frustration in her voice. “Women with disabilities aren’t supposed to be sexually active, or you are not going to be moms or anything of that nature. That’s a common theme among women with disabilities.”

Wilks is part of a Community Engagement Initiative project in Lawrence that’s working to improve health care access for people with disabilities. The project has specific steps and guidelines to help achieve success, and it was developed by Kansas University’s Research and Training Center on Independent Living.

It’s just one of about a dozen projects to come out of the center each year, which recently was awarded a fiveyear, $4.25 million grant from the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research.

Glen White is director of KU’s Research and Training Center on Independent Living, or RTCIL, which serves about 450 independent living centers across the country, including Independence Inc. KU works in partnership with other colleges to research issues pertaining to people with disabilities and from that research it creates training programs to help them — hence its name.

White said the center’s main goal is to make sure its

work is relevant to the one in eight people who have a disability.

“You can make the greatest product and invention in the world, but if people don’t use it or like it, then what’s the use of spending all of the money? We don’t want it on a bookshelf collecting dust.”

White said the key component of their research is people with disabilities.

“We don’t want to just create something for people with disabilities. We truly want to have them involved, and that’s really critical in the research that we do,” he said.

“We want them to advise us as we go along.”

About 10 employees work at the center, which is on the fourth floor of the Dole Human Development Center on KU’s main campus.

One-third of them, including White, have disabilities.

White said he was injured in a car accident at age 15 and it left him paralyzed from the waist down.

“So, I’m not just talking from the ivory tower; these are things that I’ve experienced every day of my life,” he said.

Among the center’s research projects under way:

Academic success. It is teaching students with disabilities how to advocate for themselves at Kansas University, Kansas State University, Haskell Indian Nations University and other colleges.

White said students need to know what accommodations they are entitled to under the American With Disabilities Act and how to respectfully ask professors and university personnel about those accommodations so they can be academically successful.

White recalled attending a

junior college in Minnesota where he depended on other students to carry him to a class that was up four flights of stairs.

“I didn’t know any better, and I didn’t know how to advocate,” he said. “Now, there’s a new law that’s opened the doors for a lot of people. Although the law exists, it doesn’t mean it still doesn’t happen.”

Living well. The center has created a training manual to help people with disabilities learn to exercise and eat healthier. This includes learning how to read labels and cook healthier.

Participants also visit community recreation centers to see how accessible they are and learn exercises they can do. This program is offered in a number of cities, including Lawrence, where it is provided through Independence Inc. and Wilks is coordinator.

“Sometimes isolation and depression can be high in people with disabilities and exercise helps reduce things like pressure sores and depression and just getting involved in the community helps overall health,” she said.

Some participants have lost between 15 and 40 pounds and improved their overall function through the program.

Access to health care.

The KU center developed a guide to help communities pull together to remove barriers for people with disabilities. In Lawrence, the project is under way. First, they gathered information about what the barriers are for people with disabilities.

Now, the center and Independence Inc. are meeting with health professionals to

can be greatly reduced if we provide a new skin for the building,” said Jane Huesemann, an architect with Gould Evans.

Commissioners approved the design on a 5-0 vote, but Commissioner Mike Amyx did ask several questions about the choice of the exterior materials. Amyx said he wanted more assurances from architects that the materials would hold up and had been well-tested on other projects.

“I just want to make sure that when I look at the building 25 years from now that I’m proud to say my thumbprint is on that building,” Amyx said.

Huesemann said architects were confident in the materials, saying that the terra cotta was similar to brick and would provide the city with an easy-to-maintain exterior for a reasonable price.

Commissioners also briefly touched on two other issues: how large the adjacent parking garage should be and whether the library should move out of the building to

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD an as-yet-undermined location while renovation work is under way. On both issues, commissioners agreed to decide later.

Commissioners will get more information about the cost of adding another level — or about 75 spaces — to the garage when the project goes out for bids. On the issue of temporarily moving, commissioners asked for a report from city staff on how much such a move may save in time and money on the project.

In other business, commissioners:

Unanimously directed staff to move ahead with plans to begin a program that would allow small-scale farmers to use vacant city property for crop production.

Unanimously approved an agreement with Kansas City-based Ripple Glass to set up at least four glass recycling bins in the community.

“It’s kind of like going into a building that’s burned and trying to determine what happened,” Allen said.

The agency blamed the 1998 blast at the DeBruce elevator on corporate decisions to allow grain dust to accumulate, skip repairs and abandon preventive maintenance of equipment. Investigators found the most probable ignition source was a conveyor belt roller bearing that had seized up from lack of lubrication and become hot enough to ignite dust in the area.

Federal regulations have become tougher since the late 1970s, when the nation saw an average of 25 grain elevator explosions each year. During six days in December 1977, grain elevators exploded in Louisiana, Texas, Illinois and Mississippi, killing 50 people and injuring another 50.

The government’s top grain inspector threatened to close down all U.S. export grain elevators until safety could be assured. The industry responded by doing research on grain dust explosions, modifying equipment and building safer facilities. For example, many companies now move grain from the bottom to the top of storage facilities with outdoor “bucket elevators.” That way, if a part should overheat or create a spark, it won’t come in contact with dust inside the building.

“When you look at the history of dust explosions, those

(interior) elevators have been a primary source where explosions have most often occurred,” said Dirk Maier, head of the Department of Grain Science and Industry at Kansas State University.

OSHA revamped its regulations in 1987. Experts say a key to reducing explosions has been simple rules, such as banning welding when grain is being moved and dust is kicked up. Many explosions also were caused by sparks from malfunctioning machines, which are now watched more closely to ensure they’re well-oiled and don’t overheat. Other improvements have included stricter codes for electrical systems and valves that relieve pressure if an explosion occurs.

In Kansas, some elevators now use magnets to pull out bits of metal that can mix with grain when it’s harvested or transported, reducing the risk of a possible spark.

The result has been fewer than nine explosions per year between 2001 and 2005, the latest period for which OSHA has data available. Explosions also have become less deadly as automation has reduced the number of workers in many facilities. The number of fatalities dropped from an average of 21 in the late 1970s to about one a year between 2001 and 2005.

Maier said the grain industry has been “very proactive” in making changes to improve safety.

Access to health care is a real problem in Lawrence.

During a community forum in June, people with disabilities identified the following as top barriers:

Transportation. No public transportation available evenings and Sundays, lack of inexpensive alternatives for off-hours, and insufficient spaces at health facilities, including LMH.

Infrastructure. Inaccessible facilities and equipment, insufficient number of providers for specialty needs, and lack of durable medical equipment providers and services.

Knowledge and attitudes. Lack of knowledge about effective delivery of preventive services for people with disabilities, stereotyping, unwillingness to provide accommodations, and focusing on a person’s disability rather than the person’s overall health.

Time to deck the halls 1 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

Panel predicts future of wild weather Freakish weather disasters — from the sudden October snowstorm in the Northeast U.S. to the record floods in Thailand — are striking more often.

And global warming is likely to spawn more similar weather extremes at a huge cost, says a draft summary of an international climate report obtained by The Associated Press.

The final draft of the report from a panel of the world’s top climate scientists paints a wild future for a world already weary of weather catastrophes costing billions of dollars. The report says costs will rise and perhaps some locations will become “increasingly marginal as places to live.”

The report from the Nobel Prize-winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change will be issued in a few weeks, after a meeting in Uganda. It says there is at least a 2-in-3 probability that climate extremes have already worsened because of manmade greenhouse gases.

Deaths from painkiller abuse increase

3 | ILLINOIS

Inmates freed as crack penalties eased Antwain Black was facing a few more years in Leavenworth for dealing crack. But on Tuesday, he returned home to Illinois, a free man.

Black, 36, was among the first of potentially thousands of inmates who are being released early from federal prison because of an easing of the harsh penalties for crack that were enacted in the 1980s, when the drug was a terrifying new phenomenon in America’s cities.

The 1980s-era federal laws punished crack-related crimes much more severely than those involving powdered cocaine — a practice criticized as racially discriminatory because most of those convicted of crack offenses were black.

More recently, the penalties for crack were reduced to bring them more in line with those for powder, and Tuesday was the first day inmates locked up under the old rules could get out early.

Some 12,000 prisoners are expected to benefit from reduced sentences over the next several years, with an estimated 1,900 eligible for immediate release as of Tuesday. On average, inmates will get three years shaved off their sentences. The reductions do not apply to people found guilty of crack offenses under state laws.

Study links drinking to breast cancer Whether sipping beer, wine or whiskey, women who drink just three alcoholic beverages a week face slightly higher chances for developing breast cancer compared with teetotalers, a study of more than 100,000 U.S. nurses found.

The link between alcohol and breast cancer isn’t new, but most previous studies found no increased risk for breast cancer among light drinkers. The new research provides compelling evidence because it followed so many women for up to almost 30 years, experts said.

Still, the study only shows an association between alcohol and breast cancer; it doesn’t prove that drinking causes the disease. There could be some other reason light drinkers appeared to be at higher risk — maybe they were less active than nondrinkers or had unhealthy diets, said Dr. Susan Love, a breast cancer expert and author who runs a Santa Monica, Calif.-based research foundation.

2 | NEW YORK CITY

The number of overdose deaths from powerful painkillers more than tripled over a decade, the government reported Tuesday — a trend that a U.S. health official called an epidemic, but one that can be stopped.

Prescription painkillers such as OxyContin, Vicodin and methadone led to the deaths of almost 15,000 people in 2008, including actor Heath Ledger. That’s more than three times the 4,000 deaths from narcotics in 1999.

Such painkillers “are meant to help people who have severe pain,” said Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, which issued the report. “They are, however, highly addictive.”

The report shows nearly 5 percent of Americans ages 12 and older said they’ve abused painkillers in the past year — using them without a prescription or just for the high. In 2008-09 surveys, Oklahomans reported the highest rate of abuse; the lowest was in Nebraska and Iowa.

K-State to seek KBA’s help in recruiting elite faculty members

By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

OLATHE — The president of Kansas State University on Tuesday told members of the Kansas Bioscience Authority’s board that he intends to seek their help in attracting prominent faculty members to Kansas State.

Kansas State in the future will target members of prestigious national academies as part of President Kirk Schulz’s plan for the university to become a top 50 public research university by 2025.

“If we hire well, then these are going to be difference-makers in our state,” Schulz said.

Schulz told the KBA board he hoped to take advantage of the state-sponsored authority’s Eminent Scholars program, which provides funding to universities to hire elite faculty members.

On Monday, the board approved a measure that streamlined the approval process for members of the National Academy of Sciences to qualify for the program.

The type of faculty members Schulz said he wants to hire can cost between $6 million and $10 million to bring to the university,

including salary, research startup funds and other costs. He said he wants to hire four to five such faculty members over the next five years, in areas of strength for Kansas State, including animal health, plant pathology and food safety and security.

Schulz said he hoped to attract KBA support in the future as a funding partner, similar to what Kansas University has done with several faculty members who support its KU Cancer Center.

KBA financial support would come in addition to the university’s own internal funding, joined with private funds from Kansas State’s endowment, Schulz said.

Kenny Wilk, a KBA board member and member of the Kansas Board of Regents, asked Schulz whether it made more sense to bring in new members of the national academies or to try to grow them in Kansas’ own universities.

KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little drew a parallel to KU’s cancer effort, saying it can take a long time — many years — to have a faculty member’s research profile grow to the point that he or she gains access to significant funds from the

National Institutes of Health.

The nomination of faculty members to the prestigious national academies can only be done by other Gray-Little members of the academies. As Kansas State currently doesn’t have any members, that hampers the university, Schulz said.

Presidents of other universities, he said, will often encourage their own faculty members to nominate other people at those same universities.

“It’s a very closed-door, country-club style of process to get people in,” he said, adding that Kansas State doesn’t now have any faculty members who are part of the national academies.

David Vranicar, interim president and CEO of the KBA, asked Kansas State to provide the board with some additional information on the specific areas in which it was looking to recruit faculty so the board could be more prepared for the forthcoming requests for assistance.

While the U.S. economy struggles with stagnant GDP, sluggish personal income and tanking consumer confidence, Lawrence’s economy has its own technical issues to deal with.

Like making its workforce more technical.

A crowd of about 150 people at the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce’s 2011 Economic Forecast Breakfast on Tuesday was told that area educators need to do a bit more to help boost the local economy in the future.

“If we are going to have an economy based on high-tech businesses, we have to make sure we have a workforce that is compatible,” said Charles Krider, a Kansas University business professor and presenter at the conference. “We’re not quite there yet.”

Ron Guerin, operations manager for Lawrence-based Computerized Assessments & Learning, said his company is an example of a firm that is struggling to find high-tech employees. The company develops computerized solutions for scoring a variety of standardized tests.

The 35-employee company recently expanded into the space formerly occupied by the Lawrence Athletic Club on East 23rd Street, and is looking for six computer engineers with a very specific set of skills. Guerin said such engineers are plentiful in India, and his company is seriously contemplating outsourcing the unfilled engineering position to an Indian firm.

“I’m afraid we’re very close to the point of creating a half-dozen software development jobs, but not for the local economy but rather for the Indian economy,” said Guerin, who said the Please see WORKERS, page 4A

County judge considering release of child molester

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

A Douglas County judge is considering whether a 32-yearold man convicted of sexually assaulting two boys in Douglas County in December 2001 should be placed on parole or remain in custody for further sex-offender treatment.

Dale D. Patterson Jr. has been serving a prison sentence since he pleaded no contest in 2003 to two counts of aggravated crimi-

nal sodomy.

Prosecutors accused Patterson of pulling a BB gun on the two boys and asking them to commit sex acts on him.

During a trial Patterson this week before Chief District Judge Robert Fairchild, prosecutors argued that Patterson should remain in custody to receive more treatment because

doctors believe he is a high risk to re-offend because of a mental abnormality or personality disorder.

Andrew Bauch, an assistant Kansas attorney general, argued in court Tuesday that two experts who reviewed Patterson’s case said he was a risk to re-offend.

Bauch said the experts considered statements Patterson made to a detective about other possible male victims for cases in which he was never charged.

But defense attorney Carl Fol-

som argued it was improper for the doctors to consider those cases because any statements were hearsay and Patterson could not refute those allegations in court. Folsom said a defense expert witness, who didn’t consider those allegations, didn’t make a finding that Patterson was a pedophile.

Fairchild said he would rule later in the case.

Kansas posts test score Nettleton Manor gains in math, reading APARTMENTS

By John Milburn Associated Press

TOPEKA — Kansas students posted gains in math and reading scores on 2011 National Assessment of Education Progress tests, especially when compared with scores from 2003, education officials announced Tuesday.

State Education Commissioner Diane DeBacker gains were particularly strong in Volunteers needed for math and among English language learners.

company has been recruiting for the positions for abwout two years.

Beth Johnson, vice president of economic development with the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said Lawrence’s highly educated workforce is a strength for the community. But she said local leaders are working to train future employees on the specific skills needed by Lawrence employees. Johnson said the school district is working with Johnson County Community College to develop specific “career pathways” for high school students to explore. Johnson said opportunities exist for Kansas University and other education providers to partner with the Kansas Department of Commerce to create custom-tailored training programs for specific employers.

Also at the conference, Michael Davern, a vice president of Chicago-based Nuveen Investments, said despite the negative tone of the national media, he was cautiously optimistic that the

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

economy would not fall back into recession.

“If you go through all this news, you’ll be so depressed that you’ll be looking for your therapist,” Davern said.

“The only thing I haven’t mentioned is that the Mayan calendar ends in 2012.”

Davern said data on personal income, personal spending, business investment and weekly jobless claims are all stronger than they were during the recession. Data derived from surveys — such as the Consumer Confidence Index — have been negative, Davern said.

He thinks consumers are feeling more negative then they actually are acting.

“There are a lot of negatives out there in the press, but the data does not show we’re in a recession,” Davern said. “But we are at a really important time. We can take these numbers and move forward or we can fade back.”

The event was part of the chamber’s revamped Lawrence Business Expo, which features booths from about 80 area companies at the Holiday Inn Lawrence.

Nation’s report card shows U.S. kids slightly improved in math WASHINGTON (AP) — Some progress. Still needs improvement.

The nation’s report card on math and reading shows fourth- and eighth-graders scoring their best ever in math and eighth-graders making some progress in reading. But the results released Tuesday are a stark reminder of just how far the nation’s school kids are from achieving the No Child Left Behind law’s goal that every child in America be proficient in math and reading by 2014.

Just a little more than one-third of the students were proficient or higher in reading. In math, 40 percent of the fourth-graders and 35 percent of the eighth-graders had reached that level.

The figures were from the National Assessment of Educational Progress.

“The modest increases in NAEP scores are reason for concern as much as optimism,” said Education Secretary Arne Duncan. “It’s clear that achievement is are to reach 100 percent proficiency in math and reading by 2014 on assessments developed and administered by each state, though President Barack Obama is encouraging states to apply for waivers to allow for more time to reach those marks.

Kansas is expected to apply for a waiver in February.

In 2011, 36 percent of Kansas fourth-graders taking the NAEP test were proficient or better in reading, compared to 32 percent nationally. In math, 48 percent of fourthgraders were proficient or better, compared with 39 percent nationally.

At the eighth-grade level, 36 percent of Kansas students taking the reading test were proficient or better, compared with 32 percent nationally, while 40 percent were proficient in math, compared with 34 percent nationally.

not accelerating fast enough for our nation’s children to compete in the knowledge economy of the 21st century.”

There were few noticeable changes in the achievement gap between white and black students from 2009. While the gap is smaller than in the early 1990s, the new test results reflect a 25-point difference between white and black fourth- and eighth-graders in reading and fourth-graders in math.

However, Hispanic students in eighth grade made some small strides to narrow the gap with white students in both math and reading. In reading, the gap was 22 points in 2011 compared to 26 in 1992 and 24 in 2009.

The reading test asked students to read passages and recall details or interpret them. In math, students were asked to answer questions about topics such as geometry, algebra and number properties and measurement.

Asked on Massachusetts Street

Luke Otter, brewer, Lawrence “No. Can’t ski in Kansas.”

WICHITA (AP) — Investigators are trying to determine if anti-Islam letters sent to a mosque in west Wichita are connected to a fire that caused serious damage to the building on Monday.

The leader of the Islamic Association of Mid Kansas, Abdelkarim Jibril, said the mosque received about eight letters starting four to six months ago, although the letters stopped about a month ago, The Wichita Eagle reported. The letters criticized Islam, called the prophet Muhammad a pig and contained drawings that mocked the prophet.

The leaders of the mosque had planned to turn the letters over to authorities but had not done so before a fire struck the mosque Monday morning, Jibril said.

“We don’t know if any of the letters have any relationship to the fire at this point.

It’s something we’re looking into though,” said Wichita fire Lt. Troy Thissen.

The FBI and the Bureau of

Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives joined the fire investigation Monday.

The blaze, which was reported at 12:45 a.m. Monday, spread quickly. It caused at least $130,000 damage but might have totaled the mosque because of extensive damage to the attic and roof supports, Wichita fire Capt. Stuart Bevis said. The cause of the fire has not been determined.

“We’re going to be taking a lot of steps” to review evidence because the fire involves a religious meeting place, Bevis said.

Jibril, who has been president of the association for most of its 32-year history, said it appeared the letters were written by the same person because they contained the same types of pictures and same handwriting.

One of the messages said “I don’t need to know anything else about you but 9/11,” and another contained drawings of Muhammed with a beard, Jibril said.

,

“We don’t allow pictures of the prophet,” he said. Most of the letters were mailed from somewhere in Texas, he said.

About 30 or 40 people attended Friday services at the mosque, which also held Sunday school classes, classes in Arabic, holiday prayers and other gatherings, said Jibril, who said it would be rebuilt.

Hussam Madi, a spokesman for the Islamic Society of Wichita, who delivered sermons at the mosque, said the fire was “very, very sad” for the people who prayed there.

Although two mosques are available in east Wichita, the mosque on the west side served members of the Muslim community throughout the city, Madi said. Muslims who fly out of town on Fridays often stop there to pray before they leave, he said.

ON THE RECORD LJWORLD.COM/BLOTTER and that he had to go to the LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT him Lawrence Memorial Hospital to • A 20-year-old Lawrence man suffered a head injury in a fight early Tuesday morning in Oread neighborhood. Sgt. Matt Sarna, a Lawrence police spokesman, said the man was found at South Park about 2 a.m. Tuesday. He said he got into a verbal altercation with another man earlier in the 1300 block of Ohio Street. The victim said that while they were on the ground fighting, he was struck in the back of the head with an unknown object, and the suspect fled. Sarna said the suspect was not identified other than being a white man. The victim was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital by ambulance for treatment of a cut to his head. Hospital officials said Tuesday evening that he had been treated and released, but did not give a time.

• A Kansas University student pleaded guilty Tuesday to a misdemeanor battery charge for punching another student in the face and breaking his nose in July. District Judge Peggy Kittel sentenced Andrew B. Dickinson, 22, who had initially faced a felony aggravated battery charge in the case, to serve six months on probation and complete an outpatient treatment program for alcohol.

Dickinson’s defense attorney Hatem Chahine said Dickinson had been drinking early July 1 and hit the other man in the face in the 1000 block of Massachusetts Street. The victim in the case had alleged Dickinson “sucker punched”

receive treatment for a broken nose. “I regret my actions. It was a mistake,” Dickinson told Kittel in court. “I’m sorry for the victim.” Assistant district attorney Mark Simpson said the victim supported the resolution of the case, and Kittel ordered Dickinson to pay the victim’s medical bills. Dickinson can perform community service work to cover court costs in the case. During the sentencing, Dickinson told Kittel the incident occurred as bars downtown were closing, and the judge said she often gives advice to parents and KU students to avoid that time of the night because of the number of intoxicated people leaving the area at once. “I tell them to get home before the bars close,” Kittel said, “because things happen that you normally wouldn’t think you’d be involved in.”

• A 15-year-old boy was transferred to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after he hit a car near Woodlawn and Oak Tree drives at about 3:30 Tuesday afternoon. Sgt. Troy Squire said the boy was riding a bike, unable to stop and hit a moving Volkswagen. The boy was not wearing a helmet and had minor head injuries.

Hospital officials said Tuesday evening that he had been treated and released, but did not give a time. Squire said no criminal citations had been issued.

scrapping its plan to charge a $5 monthly fee for debit card purchases after outraged customers threatened an exodus.

The about-face comes as customers across the country petitioned the bank and mobilized to close their accounts in favor of credit unions and community banks. The outcry prompted other major banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co., to cancel trial tests of their own debit card fees.

Anne Pace, a spokeswoman for Bank of America, declined to say whether there was a spike in account closures following the September announcement that it would start charging the fee.

MF Global, the securities firm led by Jon Corzine, admitted using clients’ money as its financial troubles mounted, a federal official says. The FBI is expected to investigate whether the firm’s actions violated criminal laws, according to two people familiar with the situation.

An MF Global executive told regulators early Monday that the company had diverted client money, according to an official familiar with a separate probe by regulators. It isn’t clear where the money ended up or what it might have been used for, the official said.

Greek government chaotic with debt deal in doubt

By Elena Becatoros Associated Press

ATHENS, GREECE — The Greek government teetered and stock markets around the world plummeted Tuesday after a hard-won European plan to save the Greek economy was suddenly thrown into doubt by the prospect of a public vote.

One day after Prime Minister George Pap a n d r e o u Papandreou stunned Europe by calling for a referendum, the ripples reached from Athens, where some of his own lawmakers rebelled against him, to Wall Street, where the Dow Jones industrial average plunged almost 300 points.

Papandreou convened his ministers Tuesday night, and a spokesman said the prime minister was sticking to his decision to hold the referendum, which would be the first since Greeks voted to abolish the monarchy in 1974. Papandreou has also called a vote of confidence in his government, to be held midnight Friday.

“The government is not falling,” said Angelos Tolkas, a deputy government spokesman.

Under a recently amended law, a referendum can be called by presidential decree on issues of grave national concern, if it is proposed by the cabinet and approved by absolute majority in the 300-member parliament.

With several of his lawmakers rebelling, it was unclear whether Papandreou would have enough support to push the idea through. Although he had not set a specific question or date for the referendum, ministers indicated it would likely be held in January.

Papandreou’s decision upended a deal that was the product of months of work

by European leaders who were trying, sometimes opposed by their own people, to agree the details of a second bailout for Greece and shore up their own economies in the name of saving the euro, the common currency.

The deal would require banks that hold Greek government bonds to accept 50 percent losses and provide Greece with about $140 billion in rescue loans from European nations and the International Monetary Fund.

But Greeks have been outraged by repeated rounds of tax increases and salary and pension cuts imposed as the government struggles to meet the conditions of a first, $153 billion bailout the country has been relying on since May 2010. With Greece facing a fourth year of recession next year, unions have held frequent strikes, and protests have often degenerated into riots.

A Greek rejection of the second rescue package could cause bank failures in Europe and perhaps a new recession in Europe, the market for 20 percent of American exports. It could also cause Greece to leave the alliance of 17 nations that use the euro.

European leaders made no secret of their displeasure.

“This announcement surprised all of Europe,” said a clearly annoyed French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who has been scrambling to save face for Europe before he hosts leaders of the Group of 20 major world economies later this week.

“Giving the people a say is always legitimate, but the solidarity of all countries of the eurozone cannot work unless each one consents to the necessary efforts,” he said.

Group has Plan B for picking president

By Nancy Benac Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Lots of people complain about the shortcomings of the country’s two-party system for picking a president. Now a nonpartisan group is gathering millions of petition signatures — and dollars — to offer people a Plan B. Americans Elect, which grew out of a failed 2008 effort to provide an alternative in the presidential race, aims to secure a slot on the November ballot in all 50 states for a to-be-determined candidate who would be nominated in the nation’s first online convention next summer.

The group, whose backers include both Republicans and Democrats anxious to open up the political process, has raised $22 million so far and secured ballot slots in Florida, Alaska, Nevada, Kansas, Arizona and Michigan. It has submitted signatures for certification in California, Utah and Hawaii.

Americans Elect, whose slogan is “pick a president, not a party,” appears to be on track to secure ballot access across the country, with 1.9 million signatures collected so far. But how it will affect the 2012 race depends on what kind of candidate its delegates select in next June’s online convention, which will be open to any registered voter.

“It’s a fascinating experiment in trying to empower the disenfranchised center in American politics,” says Will Marshall, one of

the group’s leaders and the president of the Progressive Policy Institute, a centrist Democratic think tank. “It uses the power of the Internet and social media to provide a new means for political participation.”

Americans Elect rejects the notion its candidate could turn out to be a spoiler and

says that putting the choice in the hands — or clicks — of millions of registered voters will ensure the selection of a qualified nominee. Leading candidates for the group’s nomination will be required to choose a running mate who is not from their own party to ensure political balance, it says.

EDITORIALS

Busy depot Increased Amtrak ridership figures in Lawrence are a testament to the efforts of a local advocacy group.

A

number of factors may have contributed to an upturn in ridership through the Lawrence Amtrak station, but it seems likely that at least part of the credit belongs to Depot Redux, the grassroots group that has become the guardian angel of the Santa Fe Depot at Seventh and New Hampshire.

Recently released Amtrak ridership figures showed that ridership at the Lawrence depot increased by 26 percent during the fiscal year that ended in September. That compares with increases of 5.1 percent on the Amtrak system nationwide and 3.7 percent on the Southwest Chief, the only Amtrak line that passes through Lawrence. Increased Amtrak ridership may be a reflection of the struggling economy or other factors, but Depot Redux members like to think that the significantly higher ridership numbers in Lawrence have something to do with improved conditions in the building they have adopted.

The group has worked to improve the appearance of the building through landscaping and other efforts and helped convince Amtrak to hire caretakers to open and staff the building for 30 minutes before and after Amtrak’s two scheduled stops each day during the week. Depot Redux volunteers pick up opening and closing duties on the weekends. Before the depot was staffed, it was left unlocked for long periods each night, making it a magnet for homeless residents and vandals. It wasn’t a very safe or attractive place to be in the late-night or early-morning hours when trains arrived.

With regular staff on duty, said Carey Maynard-Moody, a leader of the Depot Redux group, the Lawrence depot is losing its reputation as the “Stephen King station” on the Southwest Chief route.

The ultimate goal of the depot group is for the city of Lawrence to take over the building and make sure it is preserved both for passengers and for its historic significance to the community. Various concerns have rightly prompted city officials to shy away from the financial commitment of taking ownership of the building so far, but talks with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Amtrak continue.

If a suitable agreement can be reached for the city to acquire the building, it will be largely due to the efforts of the dedicated volunteers who formed Depot Redux. In the meantime, the community owes the group its thanks for making this important transportation link a safer and more attractive access point for Lawrence.

Ag can be economic boon

By Gene A. Budig and Alan Heaps

The global population continues to change in many ways.

First, our world is getting more crowded. In 1850, there were 1 billion people in the world. Three billion in 1960. Seven billion in 2010. And by 2050 there will be 9 billion.

Second, people continue to move around. Our cities are getting bigger, with a majority of the world’s population now living in urban areas. In 1900 only 13 percent lived in cities. Today, in the United States, only 16 percent of people live in rural areas.

The remaining 84 percent of Americans who live in the cities and suburbs are pretty much cut off from their primary source of food: farmers. We tend to forget the importance of agriculture in our daily lives and the lives of others in the world. We take our food for granted, rarely seeing past our local grocery store and the occasional green market and butcher shop.

Fortunately others are taking care of this important business.

Cutting-edge universities like Ohio State, University of Nebraska, University of Illinois, and Kansas State University have drawn a sharp focus on programs in food production, environmental quality and sustainability, advanced bioenergy, bio-based products, agribusiness entrepreneurship, meat research, and food processing.

Legislators are also part of this effort. David Heineman, governor of Nebraska and chairman of the National Governors Association, has pledged to underscore the growth and importance of needed research in agriculture across the country.

These smart people understand that what’s good for their constituents is also good for the world. They know that the United States plays a leading role in feeding Budig not only our own country but other countries as well.

In fact, we are the world’s largest agricultural exporter. One out of three American acres is planted for export. Forty five percent or our wheat goes oversees, 34 percent of our soybeans, and more than 60 percent of our sunflower oil. Furthermore, mostly due to cutting-edge research, our producers have the lowest production costs in the world.

E. Gordon Gee, president of the Ohio State University, says agricultural trade with developing nations will grow in the coming decades as population, incomes and food demands grow faster than in developed countries.

“We will be limited only by a lack of creativity, and increased agricultural research is essential

to the future of Ohio and other Midwestern states,” Gee says. “It represents economic opportunity — jobs — for many people.”

James B. Milliken, president of the University of Nebraska, notes that “consumers in developing countries will choose different foods as their incomes rise, moving from staples to more meat, dairy products, fruits and vegetables. Helping to ensure availability of more and better food, reasonable prices and jobs will depend in significant part on university research.”

But strong agriculture also is good for localities.

“Agriculture research produces jobs that carry good salaries,” Gee argues. “Agriculture has been rediscovered by the public, its elected leaders and economists. … Modern day agriculture means new and improved jobs in research, jobs that are certain to grow in numbers and in importance.”

These jobs are needed in rural America right now. They will keep more young people from having to move away from their place of birth and choice, and keep our country in a position to feed itself and the world for years to come.

— Gene A. Budig was chancellor/ president of three major state universities (Illinois State University, West Virginia University and president of Major League Baseball’s American League, and Kansas University) and Alan Heaps is vice president at the College Board in New York City.

Rivalry bias To the editor: I understand the media advantages of a rivalry, but please do not express your pro-Free State bias at the expense of the hard-working athletes. Yes, the students get competitive, but the next day we are still students, peers and friends with our crosstown “rivals.” Referring to the Lawrence High School football team sans Strauss as “declawed” is insensitive, yet typical of the Lawrence Journal-World’s high school sports page. I don’t remember reading anything about the clipped-winged Firebirds after losing Jake Walter in last week’s soccer game.

It is the adults, not the students, who make these remarks and facilitate this exaggerated rivalry. Any member of the LHS football team, including Brad Strauss, will tell you that one person does not make a team. The friendly jersey exchange between Hunter Pierce and Johannes Reiber epitomizes the incredible level of sportsmanship that these athletes have. Both sides practice strenuously, and both sides battle on the playing field. Both sides want to win.

Both sides respect each other.

Please follow the example of these high school students and refrain from letting your personal biases influence your coverage of high school sports.

City needs retiree incentives I think the appointment of a commission to find ways to make Lawrence and Douglas County more appealing to retirees is a very good idea. Lawrence and the surrounding communities enjoy a number of significant advantages in such an effort: Kansas University can provide a multitude of activities for seniors, including the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute run by KU Continuing Education; we are blessed with excellent cultural institutions and programs; the cost of living is moderate; and we have a terrific medical center in Lawrence Memorial Hospital, among other things. But if Lawrence and Douglas County are going to become a major retirement living center, then we also need to think about the special problems retirees face today and will be facing in the decades to come.

Recently, I have been reading a good bit of material about retirement financing and retirement housing in particular. It is clear from my readings that the baby boom generation is facing some significant problems in retirement. First, we (since I am a baby boomer) have become accustomed to living well, better than our parents’ generation.

There is no reason to think that the majority of baby boomers will willingly scale back their expectations in retirement. Second, our generation didn’t save enough to finance retirement on the scale many want. Third, even those who saved have seen their savings decimated by the recession.

Fourth, low interest rates—and the prospect of such rates con-

“

But if Lawrence and Douglas County are going to become a major retirement living center, then we also need to think about the special problems retirees face today and will be facing in the decades to come.” tinuing for years into the future— means that the income produced by retirement savings is far lower than many expected. Fifth, both private and public pensions and Social Security no longer seem secure. Finally, medical expenses and insurance costs continue to rise and can easily wipe out even substantial retirement savings.

All of this means one thing: Many retirees either find themselves with less money than they had planned or are more fearful that their retirement savings will not be enough to provide a secure and comfortable retirement.

From the perspective of places like Lawrence and Douglas County, the financial problems and worries so many baby boomer retirees face today require not only that commu-

nities attempt to provide cultural, sports, and entertainment facilities, but that they also think seriously about how they can create financial incentives to attract retirees.

Nobody who follows the activities of the Lawrence City Commission and the Douglas County Commission can doubt that they know how to hand out financial incentives. Ask any local developer.

I would suggest that the newly appointed commission on retirees think about suggesting programs that would provide financial incentives to retirees and to those developers who are willing to build homes for retirees and pass on savings to the owners or renters.

Perhaps, we might provide new retirees who move to Lawrence an initial grace period in which the retirees pay lower real estate taxes, something like the abatements from taxes we now provide to commercial development projects.

Or, perhaps, the city and county could work with local banks to provide mortgage guarantees to retirees moving into the community, guarantees that could result in lower interest rates.

Lawrence and Douglas County leaders need to be creative if we are to make our community a leading retirement destination. I believe that one important aspect of what will be needed will be creative strategies to provide financial incentives to retirees just as we have traditionally provided for commercial development.

— Mike Hoeflich, a distinguished professor in the Kansas University School of Law, writes a regular column for the Journal-World.

To the editor: We have recycled everything ever since the Walmart recycling center opened years ago. When we shop in south Lawrence several times a month, we drop the materials off at the center. No cost. No problem. Lawrence is thought to have an educated population; maybe we need to place more emphasis on recycling to save natural resources and the environment.

Trash pickup. We have used the same lightweight plastic trash container for 15 years. It cost $15 and will last another 15 years. It is my 15-15-15 plan! It weighs five pounds empty.

Why not insist on not picking up containers that are too heavy? If they are too heavy for the workers, slap a sticker on them requesting that the contents be divided into two containers. Our workers are very good at what they do and are very efficient and should not be required to lift something over 50 pounds.

The city containers that are rented appear to be fairly heavy themselves.

Maybe common sense will prevail!

Warren Corman, Lawrence

Kansas way?

To the editor: Anyone who alleges Gov. Sam Brownback to be unimaginative is clearly mistaken. After all, how many of us would have thought to enlist folks from Florida (Mr. Siedlecki and colleagues) and from New York City’s Park Avenue (the Blackstone Group) to “do things the Kansas way”?

Little ‘Dipper’ KANSAS 84, PITTSBURG STATE 55

Withey matches Wilt

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Jeff Withey now has something in common with Kansas University basketball legend/ fellow 7-footer Wilt Chamberlain.

Both have attained the rarest of rare stat feats — a triple-double in a Jayhawk uniform — yet unofficially.

Withey’s 18-point, 12-rebound, 10-block outing came in Tuesday’s 84-55 victory over Pittsburg State in Allen Fieldhouse. Numbers in exhibitions, of course, don’t count in the record books.

Chamberlain’s triple-doubles also went unobserved because blocks weren’t recorded at KU until the 1970s and the NCAA in the 80s.

“I didn’t know until I came out of the game, and coach (Bill Self) said, ‘Good job, you got a triple-double.’ I was shocked,” said Withey, who had back-toback blocks with two minutes left to record KU’s first tripledouble since Cole Aldrich (20 rebounds, 13 points, 10 blocks) against Dayton in the 2009 NCAA Tournament. That’s the only official triple-double in KU history.

“I love blocking shots. The opportunity was there. It’s something I do. It was ‘all-on’ tonight,” added junior pivot Withey, who noted he averaged eight blocks a game his senior year at San Diego’s Horizon High with a career-best mark of 15 rejections. “I definitely want to make my mark here.”

Withey had a big stat night despite suffering a left ankle sprain on a block attempt with 6:46 left in the first half.

“I heard something pop, and right away I started worrying. I said, ‘Not again,’’’ said Withey, who has been injured often. “I’m Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo blessed it’s nothing serious. I’m just going to be sore a few days.” KANSAS CENTER JEFF WITHEY (5) GETS A HAND ON A SHOT by Pittsburg State forward JaVon McGee during the first half.

Withey recorded a triple-double in KU’s 84-55 victory on Tuesday in Allen Fieldhouse, but the feat doesn’t count because it Please see KANSAS, page 4B came in an exhibition.

Teahan calming influence The team’s three best players didn’t dress. Two were serving the first half of two-game suspensions. The third was injured. Two of the team’s top three freshman recruits will watch all season in street clothes because the NCAA denied them eligibility.

It was enough to make even veteran Kansas University coach Bill Self a little nervous heading into Tuesday night’s exhibition opener against Pittsburg State.

No wonder so many in the announced Allen Fieldhouse crowd of 16,300 that actually was much smaller appeared on edge at tipoff.

Seventy-five seconds later, Conner Teahan was on pace to score 288 points, and Pitt State hadn’t yet scored. With three beautiful long shots, Teahan stretched the defense and plenty of tense nerves. Nobody cheered harder for him than suspended guards Elijah Johnson and Tyshawn Taylor, who would have been feeling pretty lousy watching SportsCenter if things had turned out differently.

Teahan didn’t maintain his pace, but did contribute 21 points, seven rebounds, three assists, five three-pointers and a steal to KU’s 84-55 victory, during which KU outscored the visitors 28-11 in the final 8:45.

Kansas football turns page, looks to future

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s football team, which has lost six games in a row and been outscored by an average of 55-21 in those losses, has found a way to flip the focus in its favor: by turning the page on the calendar.

“I just wanted to talk about what I am telling our team and our coaches as we finish this season,” KU coach Turner Gill said in his opening remarks at Tues-

day’s news conference. “First of all, I am just telling them that it is a new month. We are looking forward to the month of November because it is about how you finish. We need to finish this in a positive way.”

KU will carry a 2-6 overall record, 0-5 in the Big 12, into Saturday’s game at Iowa State.

Although Gill has proven to be an open and honest man no matter the circumstance, he turned to some frequently used cliches to get his team going this week.

“Basically, he wants us to forget about all the games we’ve played up until this point and just start over from scratch,” senior cornerback Isiah Barfield said. “The season starts 0-0, and we want to look at it that way, rather than we’re coming in on a losing streak. We want to come in with the same passion that we had at the very beginning of the season and win the month of November.”

Considering how things have gone lately, that sounds like

a pretty good game plan. Although it has long since been forgotten, Kansas opened the season 2-0 and racked up 981 yards of total offense — 554 on the ground — and 87 points during the season’s first two weeks.

Despite recent struggles, offensive coordinator Chuck Long said the Jayhawks did not plan to make drastic changes and would continue to emphasize the running game.

“We don’t want them to change their attitude,” Long

said. “Right now, we like where we’re at, offensively, as far as attitude. But we’re implementing a new game plan, and we expect a good week of practice.”

Attitude may not be changing, but expectations are. Sunday, the day after KU’s 43-0 loss at Texas, defensive coordinator Vic Shealy informed KU’s players that they should expect to see a new coaching style during the next four weeks.

LHS soccer can’t overcome slow start

LAWRENCE FORWARD ZACHARY WUSTEFELD (9) gets tripped up by Olathe South’s Adrian Thomas in the first half. LHS fell to the Falcons, 2-1, Tuesday in Olathe.

OLATHE — It took a few minutes for Lawrence High’s boys soccer team to find its bearings Tuesday night.

The Lions would love to have that time back.

Olathe South scored twice in the first six minutes and held on for a 2-1 victory in a Class 6A state quarterfinal at Olathe District Activity Center, ending Lawrence’s season.

Falcons senior defender Adrian Thomas fed junior Bryan

Johnson in the box, and the forward won a one-on-one battle with LHS senior goalkeeper Tanner Click to give O-South a one-goal advantage just 86 seconds into the match.

A little more than four minutes later, the Falcons (16-3-1) scored what proved to be the deciding goal when senior forward Nate Opperman made an assertive push from the left wing and found senior midfielder Drew Nick, who slipped the ball inside the left post and over a diving Click.

Lawrence coach Mike Mur-

phy said it is rare to see any team score so quickly on Click, let alone twice in six minutes.

“We were just a little discombobulated back there,” Murphy said of the defense in the opening minutes.

“Both times they had guys winning a one-on-one battle on the outside, and they were just in the right spot to touch it in,” the coach added.

LHS (8-8-3) might have had miscues that allowed O-South to capitalize, but Murphy gave the Falcons their due.

“They did their job,” he said,

“and we weren’t quite up to speed with them yet.”

To the Lions’ credit, they didn’t fold after getting in a discouraging hole. Lawrence junior forward Luke Matthews made the most of an open look on the left side and drilled a goal in the 15th minute, shooting it to the right of Falcons goalkeeper Nick Riggle.

Matthews said the Lions were determined to put up a fight.

“We couldn’t be left out of the game, because we came this far,” he said.

AP Source: Big East readies invites PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Big East is ready to start adding members after spending the last month and a half losing them.

A person familiar with the decision told the Associated Press the Big East will invite Boise State, Navy and Air Force for football only and SMU, Houston and Central Florida for all sports in upcoming days. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the conference was not ready to announce its plan.

Commissioner John Marinatto declined to elaborate on the Big East’s next moves after meeting with the league’s presidents at a Philadelphia hotel Tuesday.

He said he expected the targeted schools to accept, but details still must be worked out with each. “As we’ve learned over the last two months, don’t believe anything anybody tells you. Nothing’s done until it is over. So I’m obviously being very cautious and that’s why I’m reluctant to say names of schools,� he said.

Marinatto did acknowledge the league intends to expand west.

“

As we’ve learned over the last two months, don’t believe anything anybody tells you. Nothing’s done until it is over. � — Big East commissioner John Marianatto Boise State and Air Force, both in the Mountain West Conference, and SMU and Houston, members of Conference USA, would be in the Big East’s western division, along with Louisville and Cincinnati. Navy, an independent, and UCF, also from CUSA, would be part of the league’s eastern division with Connecticut, South Florida, Rutgers and another school. The league would then likely play a conference championship game.

The Big East has been working on a plan to add those six schools and reconfigure as a 12-team football conference since not long after Syracuse and Pittsburgh announced Sept. 18 they would

Hurdles aside, WVU plans 2012 move MORGANTOWN, W.VA. (AP) — Interim Big 12 Commissioner Chuck Neinas said Tuesday he fully expects West Virginia to start play next season despite a hard-line stance from the Big East.

Neinas attended a reception in Morgantown officially welcoming the Mountaineers into the Big 12 on Tuesday, a day after the university filed a lawsuit against the Big East seeking to clear the way for West Virginia to start Big 12 competition next fall.

Neinas, West Virginia athletic director Oliver Luck and university President James Clements were peppered with questions about the lawsuit and the timetable on the Mountaineers’ Big 12 debut. “I’m not concerned because I trust the two gentlemen on each side of me, that’s why,� Neinas said.

The Big East has said it plans to keep West Virginia from leaving for 27 months under the league’s bylaws.

Luck and Clements declined comment on the lawsuit. Filed in Monongalia County Circuit Court, it seeks to declare the Big East bylaws invalid, claiming the conference breached its fiduciary duty to West Virginia by failing to maintain a balance between football-playing and non-football members.

When Neinas was asked what happens if the Big East is successful in delaying West Virginia’s quick exit, “then I guess for the first time in college football history, we’ll have home and home� schedules, he joked. “Oklahoma State told me they don’t want to play Oklahoma twice.�

On a serious note, Neinas said: “We fully expect West Virginia will be there.�

Neinas, Luck and Clements tried to keep the focus on the Big 12’s newest member during the packed reception at the school’s football stadium, which included a pep band playing the Mountaineers’ fight song.

Neinas even wore a striped gold tie and blue shirt in West Virginia’s school colors.

Neinas said West Virginia’s entrance into the Big 12 was contingent on the university being available next year. “We needed a 10th member next season to fulfill our TV commitments,� Neinas said. “There’s an inventory that goes with a contract for TV, so we’ve got to be able to do that.�

He said the immediate availability wasn’t a deciding factor in West Virginia being chosen over Louisville, which briefly entered the picture last week before the choice of the Mountaineers was solidified.

West Virginia becomes the Big 12’s easternmost member, joining Texas, Texas Tech, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Kansas, Kansas State, Baylor, TCU and Iowa State.

Missouri, which was left off the Big 12’s list of members for 2012-13, is expected to finalize a move to the Southeastern Conference soon.

Neinas said Missouri is considered a Big 12 member until it withdraws and the league will accommodate 11 football teams if necessary. “We can do it,� Neinas said. “We don’t have it on paper. But our computers will work out to provide a schedule that will accommodate 11 teams.�

West Virginia wouldn’t simply move into Missouri’s Big 12 football schedule if the Tigers leave.

Instead, “we’re going to have to redo the schedule for a variety of reasons,� Neinas said. “We’re going to have to do some adjusting.�

be leaving for the Atlantic Coast Conference. “We got reaffirmation from our members that that was the way we wanted to go,� Marinatto said. “It was probably a very small part of our meeting today, where they just reaffirmed everything we had been talking about and authorized me to move forward with formal discussions to get this all wrapped up as soon as possible.�

Exactly when was unclear. “We have not received an invitation from the Big East. However, we understand the things are moving in that direction,� UCF spokesman Grant Heston said.

Navy athletic director Chet Gladchuk said Tuesday he had not yet heard from any Big East officials.

A couple weeks after the Big East found out about Pitt and Syracuse, TCU announced it was backing out of a commitment to join the league next year and instead accepted an invite to the Big 12.

Then last week West Virginia accepted an invitation to the Big 12, stripping the Big East of its

most successful football member in recent years. So even with the six potential new members, the Big East still needs another school to get to 12 for the long term.

Temple and Memphis are being considered, the person with knowledge of the Big East’s decision said.

Marinatto said again that the Big East intends to enforce the league’s 27-month notification period and will hold Pitt, Syracuse and West Virginia in the conference until July 2014.

The ACC has said it will not challenge the Big East’s rules, but the Big 12 needs 10 teams to fulfill its television contracts in 2012 and has said it expects West Virginia to replace Missouri and join the league next year.

Even with new members ready to commit, the Big East might not have enough football teams next season without Syracuse, Pittsburgh and West Virginia.

According to Conference USA bylaws, UCF, SMU and Houston would not be able to compete in the Big East until 2013.

TENNIS

Djokovic returns from injury BASEL, SWITZERLAND — Novak Djokovic made his return after missing six weeks due to a back injury and defeated Xavier Malisse 6-2, 4-6, 7-5 in the first round of the Swiss Indoors on Tuesday.

The top-ranked Serb overcame some tense moments but improved to 65-3 on the year.

NBA

Season ‘starts,’ but no games NEW YORK — No KD vs. Kobe, no championship banner in Dallas.

The original start date to the NBA season arrived Tuesday with progress still stalled in the negotiations to end the lockout. No further talks have been scheduled, a person familiar with the situation told the Associated Press.

Players and owners made progress on a number of issues related to the salary cap system over two days last week. But the negotiations fell apart again on the third day, when the sides decided to revisit the revenue sharing split.

Three games had been scheduled for Tuesday. The Mavericks would have opened the defense of their first NBA title at home against Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls.

Houston was at Utah, with Kevin Durant’s Thunder at Kobe Bryant’s Lakers. Most of league would have started today.

Instead, TNT was airing a “Bones� marathon Tuesday night.

Commissioner David Stern canceled games through the end of November on Friday.

With no NBA games to play, Durant was still finding ways to compete and challenge fellow hoops stars.

Durant tweeted Monday he was interested in playing flag football. When fans at Oklahoma State University offered an invitation, he showed up in Stillwater that night to play.

He tweeted later that he threw four touchdown passes and had three interceptions in a victory.

Then Tuesday, LeBron James sent a tweet to the Thunder star that he was interested in setting up a flag football showdown between Durant’s team and his own squad in Akron, Ohio. Durant answered that his team was ready and James should set it up.

Kansas women eager to smell hot dogs

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

It might just be an exhibition, but the Kansas University women’s basketball team’s players and coaches aren’t any less excited about getting the 2011-12 season started.

The result won’t count toward the Jayhawks’ record when they play host to Emporia State at 8 tonight at Allen Fieldhouse. KU coach Bonnie Henrickson said that doesn’t make it insignificant.

“It’s really a barometer for us,” the eighth-year Kansas coach said of her team’s first chance to break out of the preseason practice grind with live competition.

As Henrickson put it, when the smell of hot dogs and popcorn is present courtside, it is time for the players to get down to business.

“They’re kind of champing at the bit to play somebody else, and I think that’ll be good for us,” she said.

The sense of urgency will be dialed up a notch with one of the best Division II programs around coming to the fieldhouse. The Hornets won the national championship in 2010 and were 20-9 last season, when they advanced to the MIAA Tournament title game for the eighth time in program history.

ESU opens the season ranked second in both the MIAA coaches and media polls.

According to Henrickson, that will benefit KU. “It’s been good for us,” she said of the series with ESU, which Kansas leads 6-0 (3-0 in exhibitions, 3-0 in regular season).

“We know they’ll come in

Second-year Hornets coach Jory Collins has four starters returning from last season, as well as nearly 70 percent of the team’s scoring and 63 percent of its rebounding.

“The coaching staff isn’t going to change who they are just because we’re losing,” said Barfield, translating the message. “But coach Shealy said he’s going to coach as hard as he can because we really need to win this month.

If the younger players can’t take that, then I don’t know what to tell them.”

While the task of forgetting about the past sounds simple enough, the players said it would take some work.

“It’s not easy,” junior linebacker Tunde Bakare said.

“But it’s not as difficult as people make it. Basically, when things don’t go your way, you gotta start over again and just make sure you do it right the second time.

And I think we can do that in November.”

VERITAS TIGHT END ANDREW HARVEY PULLS DOWN A RECEPTION at the goal line in front of defensive back Jake Ellis. Veritas beat St. John’s Military School, 44-14, Tuesday at the Eagle’s Nest.

Veritas advances with 44-14 win

By Corey Thibodeaux cthibodeaux@ljworld.com

Whatever St. John’s Military School did to contain Veritas Christian in the first half didn’t work nearly as well in the second half.

Veritas cruised Tuesday night at the Eagles Nest, 4414, in the first round of the KCAA state football tournament and extended its winning streak to 20 games.

“It wasn’t like a lot of our other games over the past couple years where a couple of plays were in the end zone,” coach Doug Bennett said. “We had to work for our points tonight.”

In the first half, the game looked like it was going to be a defensive struggle.

High-scoring Veritas led 16-0 with just under a minute remaining, until senior quarterback Nick Bennett threw an interception, which St. John’s returned for a touchdown.

The Eagles had a 10-point lead at halftime, but it looked as if the Mule Skinners could hang with the tournament’s top seed.

But that wasn’t the case in the Veritas locker room.

“They think they can beat us,” Nick Bennett said. “We have to step up even more now.”

The Eagles scored on the first second-half possession with a Bennett touchdown from a yard out. They then recovered an onside kick and took the ball down for another score, with Bennett hooking up with junior Andrew Harvey for 27 yards. With the two-point conversion and St.

John’s not even having the ball yet in the second half, Veritas led by 24.

Coach Bennett said the offensive surge in the second half had a lot to do with linemen Sam Bear, Bryce Boland and Chris Bolinger stepping up. Fatigue could have also been a factor.

“I don’t know if we wore them out finally in the second half or if we just started executing better,” the coach said.

When the Mule Skinners finally got the ball, they scored their only offensive touchdown of the day from junior Tyler Scott’s run.

The Eagles responded with two more touchdowns and coasted to the victory.

After the game, Veritas found out it was playing against St. Mary’s Academy again in the next round.

“I think both coaching staffs are really looking forward to a rematch after that game where neither defense decided to show up,” Doug Bennett said.

In the teams’ last meeting two weeks ago, Veritas won an 80-72 shootout in its toughest challenge of the season. Nick Bennett said Veritas should be able to slow down St. Mary’s this time around with the confidence it gained from playing St. John’s.

The defense is probably the most important factor in that match-up, Doug Bennett said.

“That’s how you win championships,” he said.

The game will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Eagles Nest.

Why defer?

Winning the opening coin toss has been pretty common for KU this season. Until Saturday, starting the game on defense had not. Prior to the game at Texas, KU had won the toss in five of its seven games and elected to receive each time. Saturday, the Jayhawks again won the toss but this time chose to defer. Asked why Tuesday, Gill hammered home the theme of the week.

“That was mainly for change,” he said. “I think we were talking about the third quarter and just trying to do something a little bit different. We wanted to see if that would make a difference in how we would come out from the opposite side of it, having our offense have the ball versus our defense.

A small victory, if you want to call it that, because there were some pluses that come out of it compared to what we had been doing in the third quarter.”

CB to de-commit?

The fallout from a disappointing season and uncertain future already might have made its way to Kansas.

Lauderdale Lakes (Fla.) cornerback Daniel Gray, 6-foot, 170 pounds, who committed to KU in May, told Rivals.com Monday that he was on the verge of de-committing.

“I’m not really solid (with Kansas),” Gray said. “I’ll put it out (Wednesday) whether I’m still committed or not. I’m going to take a trip to Nebraska on Nov. 25. That’s going to be the first official visit I take.”

Others may follow. Gray told the website he had offers from Florida International, Mississippi and Texas Tech.

North Carolina and Tennessee also have shown interest.

Gray is one of eight commitments that KU has landed from the Class of 2012.

Sunday night, Gill was asked if he thought KU’s sixgame losing streak had hurt recruiting. While his answer may have been true at the time, it now seems clear that things are changing.

“I haven’t had anything in a negative way or anything of that nature at all,” Gill said Sunday. “Everybody’s still interested, the people we’ve been on, and we’ll see how it all shakes out. Everybody understands in recruiting and life and football and sports, you have ups and downs.”

Leading scorer, sophomore Kelsey Balcom, averaged 11.6 points and seven rebounds last year. Henrickson said the 6-footer, who knocked down 23 three-pointers as a freshman, helps ESU spread the floor. With a handful of other long-range options surrounding Balcom — an Olathe South High teammate of Jayhawks freshman guard Natalie Knight — Henrickson said the Hornets play stylistically similar to Big 12 foes Iowa State and Kansas State.

Those ready to spot up and fire from long range for ESU include junior guard Rachel Hanf, who averaged 10.8 points last year and buried 56 three-pointers, sophomore guard Rheanna Egli (35 from downtown) and junior guard Jocelyn Cummings (23 threepointers).

Of course, Kansas won’t be

lacking in talent, either. The Jayhawks (21-13 last year) are led by a talented trio of junior captains. Forward Carolyn Davis led the Big 12 in field-goal percentage (.66) in 2010-11, point guard Angel Goodrich averaged a league-high 6.3 assists a game, and guard Monica Engelman led the conference in three-point accuracy, hitting 43.1 percent of her attempts from behind the arc.

Senior forward Aishah Sutherland and Knight round out the starting five for Kansas, and sophomore guard Keena Mays (12.1 points) provides a spark off the bench.

Henrickson said she will have a specific list of goals for her team’s preseason opener, and the KU staff will be tracking everything from defensive field-goal percentage to deflections and charges as they get their players

back in the habit of being “process-oriented.”

Their primary defensive goal will be not to allow ESU dribble penetration to the middle of the floor, she added.

The coach expects the exhibition to allow her and her staff figure out what things the Jayhawks do well and what things need cleaning up.

“For us to play like we want to play and get out and dictate, pressure and be disruptive, it’s a great chance for us to be able to do that,” Henrickson said.

And it’s a chance for the players to play in front of a crowd, instead of closed practices.

“I get a sense that they’re really excited,” the coach said of the KU players.

KU has an all-time record of 38-9 in exhibition games and has won 12 straight since a 2004 loss to the West Coast All-Stars.

Timmons headed to Hall J-W Staff Reports

Former Kansas University track coach Bob Timmons has been selected for induction into the USA Track and Field Hall of Fame, the organization announced Tuesday.

Joining Timmons in the class of 2011 are Kansas City native Maurice Green, Gail Devers, Vince Matthews, Clarence Demar and Craig Virgin. The six will be inducted into the Hall on Saturday, Dec. 3, at the Jesse Owens Hall of Fame Banquet, which will be held in conjunction with 2011 USATF Annual Meeting in St. Louis.

Timmons, 87, coached at KU from 1968-1988 and led

the Jayhawks to 27 league titles as well as three national championships.

“This is an outstanding honor for an outstanding coach,” said current KU head coach Stanley Redwine. “ C o a c h Timmons helped lay the foundation of the program here at Kan- Timmons sas and he deserves the highest praises for everything he has done for American track and field.”

Timmons coached seven

Olympians, 16 world record holders, 77 NCAA All-Americans and 24 NCAA champions.

His pupils included Olympic greats Jim Ryun and Al Oerter. Under Timmons’ tutelage, Ryun, in his junior season at Wichita East, became the first high school runner to break four-minutes in the mile.

Timmons’ coaching career at Kansas spanned 22 seasons and included four NCAA championships, 13 Big 8 indoor conference titles, 14 outdoor conference titles and four cross country conference titles.

KU features 11 former Jayhawks in the USATF Hall of Fame, the most of any Division I program.

BRIEFLY

Soccer CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

That seemed to give LHS some much-needed momentum, which continued in the 28th minute, when Click thwarted Johnson on an attack by flying forward through the air to punch away a shot.

After Olathe South maintained its one-goal advantage through the first half, neither team could get any offense going in the first 25 minutes of the second half.

Of course, with the Falcons holding a lead, they were clearing the ball on defense pretty quickly, and were not as interested in setting up a counter as advancing to the state semifinals. With scoring windows almost nonexistent, Lawrence only created two shot attempts in the first 35 minutes of the second half.

“It’s a (senior) class that’ll be remembered years from now,” Lawrence senior Gavin Fisher said, with tears in his eyes. “Everyone will be proud of everything we’ve done this season.”

“We needed one group of guys to step up and show what Lawrence High soccer could be all about,” Murphy said, “and these guys did that.”

Seven Jayhawks on academic team Kansas University senior Jordyn Perdue was named to the Academic All-Big 12 first team for the third time in her career to highlight a list of seven Kansas soccer players

named to the conference’s academic list.

Junior Whitney Berry and sophomores Amy Grow, Madi Hillis and Caroline Kastor earned first-team recognition, while senior Kortney Clifton and junior Shelby Williamson were named to the second team.

KANSAS 84, PITT STATE 55

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

PSU wanted Kansas’ best

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

It might have been known that the Kansas University men’s basketball program would be without starters Elijah Johnson (suspension), Thomas Robinson (injury) and Tyshawn Taylor (suspension) for its exhibition opener against Pittsburg State on Tuesday. But that didn’t change the way the Gorillas approached the game.

“For me as a coach, it was prepare for Tyshawn, Elijah and Robinson,” second-year PSU coach Kevin Muff said after KU’s 84-55 victory. “I thought they were playing, so most of our preparation was centered around them, especially Thomas.”

If anything, Kansas’ being without three of its most high-profile players was a disappointment for the Div. II team making its ninth appearance all-time against KU. “For me, it was,” said junior forward JaVon McGee, who finished with eight points and 12 rebounds in 35 minutes. “We thought Robinson was gonna play because some of us looked on Twitter, and he said he was gonna come back for this week. So we still prepared the same way. We didn’t find out until minutes before the game that he wasn’t going to play, so it was kind of a damper, for me.

I wish I could’ve seen what I could’ve done against him.”

Added senior guard Drake Green: “As a player, you do want to go against the top prospect-type guys from a high major D-I. At the same time, whether they were playing or not, we still had to go in with the mind-set that we were gonna give it our best effort.”

For more than 25 minutes, Pitt State’s best effort looked as if it might make things interesting. But, with KU leading by six, senior Conner Teahan drained his fourth of five three-pointers at the 14:05 mark of the second half and sparked a 12-4 Kansas run that opened the door for the rout.

In addition to being impressed with KU’s less-heralded players, Muff said he was proud of his own team, particularly McGee. “I thought JaVon had a heck of a game inside and did a good job trying to attack the basket and make some plays,” Muff said.

The Kansas City, Mo., native made just four of 16 shots, but relentlessly went after the rim and KU’s big men. The biggest obstacle between McGee and a big night was KU center Jeff Withey, who finished with 10 blocks, including two on McGee on one possession.

“I wasn’t expecting him to keep blocking my shot like that,” McGee said. “I thought I was gonna get a few calls, but, you know, that’s homecourt advantage.”

Asked if he ever had faced a better shot-blocker, McGee smiled.

“Yeah, my freshman year.

We played KU here, so I played against somebody better than him,” said McGee, referring to former KU center Cole Aldrich. “Other than that, probably not.”

Withey thinks his tender ankle may have contributed to an 8-of-15 free-throw performance. He was 5-of-10 from the field in his 31 minutes.

“I obviously need to work on my free throws,” Withey said, “but I think my ankle hurt me with the shot — being on my toes.”

Self said he thought Conner Teahan (21 points, seven rebounds, three assists) was sensational on a night Elijah Johnson, Tyshawn Taylor (suspensions) and Thomas Robinson (hyperextended knee) sat on the bench in street clothes.

Yet Withey was not far behind.

“I think it’s good Jeff got a triple-double,” Self said, adding, “he could have had 22-23 (points) if he made his

He’s pretty good at

blocking and altering. I think he can be one of the better shot blockers in our league.”

Yet ... “I told him to not get too excited. They’re 6-4. You

should block shots if you are 7-foot. Still, though, he’s got great timing. I thought he and Teahan were bright spots.”

Self said overall, “It was

Keegan

human species to exercise patience.

“He’s waited his time,” Self said. “And he’s practiced like this for the majority of our practice sessions.”

In his three seasons, Teahan five times reached double digits in minutes, played 218 minutes total and scored 81 points.

During five seasons under the direction of strength and conditioning coach Andrea Hudy, Teahan gradually has added strength and quickness.

“If you looked at the way I was in high school, I’ve always been slow-footed,” Teahan said. “I’m not the quickest guy laterally, but I’ve been able to work with Hudy, and I’ve been able to hold my own. I owe a lot to her and other people I’ve worked with the past four years.”

Teahan fills the most enjoyable of all bench roles. He’s the designated gunner.

“I’m not supposed to hesitate at all,” he said after making five of eight threepointers and eight of 11 field goals. “They might be a little mad at me not taking more shots tonight.”

extremely sloppy first half generated by a mix of inexperienced walk-ons and scholarship players, but thanks to Teahan’s hot shooting display, Pitt State never drew closer than two points (23-21, 4:20 left in the first half).

A fifth-year senior who red-shirted last season, Teahan won’t get as many open looks in the regular season, but he will get significant playing time for the first time in his career.

“Conner’s our sixth man,” ninth-year Kansas coach Bill Self said. “There are no ifs, ands or buts about that.

I like him as that because if he’s hitting, he can stretch it and all those things. But we weren’t going to probably win the game or have a chance to look very good unless Conner was offensive tonight. He’s up 9-0 to start the game. He played well.”

ugly. The first half was hard to watch, but I thought we tried hard.”

KU led, 32-27, at the break.

“Our on-the-ball defense on the perimeter from our big guys was horrific,” Self noted. “We didn’t have any low-post presence the first half. We got it inside a little bit to Jeff the second half.

Naadir Tharpe I thought was going to set the freshman record for turnovers in the first 10 minutes. He calmed down and did some nice things,” he added of freshman point Tharpe, who also almost had a triple-double that included a negative category — nine turnovers, eight assists to go with 12 points in 34 minutes.

“Naadir made a couple of shots and did some good things,” noted Self, whose team also will be without Johnson and Taylor in Tuesday’s exhibition finale against Fort Hays State (7 p.m., Allen).

Robinson should be back for that contest. KU’s regular-season opener is 7 p.m., Nov. 11 versus Towson.

NOTEBOOK: Self ‘nervous’ for short-handed Jayhawks

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University men’s basketball coach Bill Self admitted he had a bit of a queasy feeling entering Tuesday’s exhibition game without Thomas Robinson (hyperextended knee), Elijah Johnson and Tyshawn Taylor (suspension).

“I was nervous before the game, to be honest,” he said.

“Today we actually practiced with that group some (start-

ing five of Conner Teahan, Travis Releford, Justin Wesley, Naadir Tharpe, Jeff Withey). The building was hot, too. There may have appeared to be more anxiety because of that.”

KU officials said fans were running and windows were open as usual; the fieldhouse was just steamier than normal.

All tickets were sold, KU officials indicated, with some empty seats in the corners and in the chairbacks.

and nine turnovers in 34 minutes. He had seven turnovers the first half.

“Coach came in and told me, ‘Seven damn turnovers.’

That was the first thing he said. He said, ‘Seven damn turnovers. Come on. You’re a better player than that,’’’ Tharpe said of Bill Self. “He picked me up, as well as my other teammates. I went out

there, and I settled down defTharpe’s debut: KU fresh- initely.”

man Naadir Tharpe finished This, that: Ben McLemore with 12 points, eight assists

West on team: Anthony West, a 6-foot-6 sophomore forward from Shawnee Mission East, on Tuesday was officially added to the team as a walk-on. West had been practicing with the team since impressing at walk-on tryouts. West, who wears jersey No. 50, has four years of eligibility.

and Jamari Traylor (partial qualifiers able to practice second semester) attended and sat in the stands behind the bench. Both, by the way, will have four years of eligibility at KU starting next season. ... Self said Merv Lindsay (no stats, two minutes) was not a red-shirt candidate this season. He will be eligible to play in games. ... Travis Releford had 14 points, six rebounds and two turnovers in 36 minutes. “He labored tonight,” Self said. “We have to

get his confidence back doing some things with the ball.” ...

Kevin Young (four points, eight rebounds, 20 minutes) had a nice dunk off an inbounds pass from Tharpe in the second half

Block party: If stats counted, KU’s 15 blocks would have tied a school record, set on Dec. 9, 2006, versus Toledo.

CHIEFS

Everything going their way: Chiefs on four-game roll KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — A couple of wins over division doormats. A shutout of a Raiders team playing without its starting quarterback.

An inexplicable fumble that eventually led to an overtime victory.

The Kansas City Chiefs realize everything has been going their way during a four-game winning streak, one that has taken them from NFL laughingstock to a tie atop the AFC West. That’s why coach Todd Haley warned everyone after a 2320 overtime win over San Diego on Monday night to keep an even keel.

Hard as that might be right now.

“We’ve got some fighters,” Haley said. “They don’t care much what anybody says, they just believe in what they’re doing, and what they’re going to be, and what they’re going to accomplish.”

What they’re going to accomplish is anyone’s guess.

How could anyone have any clue after the dramatic turnaround they’ve already experienced?

Left for dead after losing their first two games by a combined 89-10, the Chiefs (4-3) showed some resolve during a road loss to San Diego. They came back home and squeaked out a win over Minnesota, rallied from a big deficit to beat Indianapolis, and then beat the Jason Campbell-less Raiders last weekend to give them tons of momentum heading into a showdown with San Diego.

Under the bright lights on Monday night, with a frenzied Halloween crowd on hand at Arrowhead Stadium, the Chiefs led the whole way against the division-leading Chargers.

Still, San Diego had a chance to win the game in regulation with the ball at the 15-yard line and 48 seconds on the clock. Philip Rivers dropped under center, called for the snap — and never got the ball. It squirted under a pile, a fumble at the most inopportune time, and the Chiefs’ Andy Studebaker came away with it to keep San Diego from kicking a potential winning field goal.

That allowed the game to reach overtime, and Ryan Succop ended it with a 30yard field goal.

“That was a lot of fun,” said Succop, who had three field goals in the game. “Everybody on our team fought as hard as they could. We put everything into it, and to come out on top is great.”

The Chiefs are the first

team in NFL history to lose their first three games and then move into at least a tie for a division lead after the next four. The overtime win forged a three-way tie with San Diego and Oakland.

Sure, the Chiefs have had breaks go their way. The Colts are a different team without Peyton Manning, the Vikings are trying to find someone who can play quarterback. Rivers couldn’t remember the last time he fumbled a snap in a game situation.

But the Chiefs have also taken advantage of every break that’s gone their way, realizing that only by being opportunistic can a team missing three of its brightest stars to season-ending injuries — All-Pro running back Jamaal Charles, Pro Bowl safety Eric Berry and tight end Tony Moeaki — realistically expect to compete for back-to-back division championships.

“Our guys have a common belief that we’re going to come out on top,” said Haley, who has gone from the hot seat after the first two weeks to just plain hot.

“Our guys have handled some adversity, and I think

it’s had a positive effect for these guys, and they believed they were going to win that game, and that made it go their way despite not looking promising there at the end,” he said. “I’m really proud of the guys, and I really care for them. They’re fun to be around and fun to coach.”

Everything is more fun when you’re winning.

The Chiefs should have a pretty good chance to keep it up, too. They host the Dolphins on Sunday, one of two winless teams left in the NFL. Then they welcome the struggling Broncos, whose quarterback situation is just as unsettled as the rest of the teams the Chiefs have played lately.

“The great part about this team is that we continue to keep our heads and continue to work,” quarterback Matt Cassel said. “Our mentality is you just try to get one win and then two wins and three wins. Now we are on a fourgame win streak. Everybody is excited about that, but we know there is a lot of season left to be played. We’re happy about where we are at right now.”

It sure beats where they were a month ago.

Make a plan for leftovers before Turkey Day arrives Q: A:

What can I do with leftover turkey?

This is a question that I get multiple times after the Thanksgiving holiday so I decided to get a jump-start on it this year. Here are several soup recipes using leftover turkey that Alice Henneman, MS, RD, the Extension Educator for the University of Nebraska, shared recently in her Cook It Quick online newsletter. They all look fantastic. The only decision is which one to try first.

They all start with the same basic ingredients of 1 quart (4 cups) low sodium chicken broth and 2 cups of chopped, cooked turkey. Then, they’re modified to reflect different flavor profiles. Each recipe makes about two quarts.

Turkey Mashed Potato Soup (American) In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, sautĂŠ over medium to medium-high heat in 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil: 1 chopped, sweet yellow onion and 1 cup thinly sliced carrots until the onion is translucent and the carrots are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Add 4 cups low sodium chicken broth, 3 cups mashed potatoes and 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves. Continue cooking and stir until broth is smooth.

Add 2 cups chopped, cooked turkey and continue cooking on medium heat until mixture starts to simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes until mixture is heated through. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Turkey Tortellini Soup (Italian) Begin by preparing 8 ounces frozen cheese-filled tortellini according to package directions; set aside. In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, sautÊ over medium to medium-high heat in 1 Tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil: 1 chopped, sweet, yellow onion and 1 cup thinly sliced carrots until the onion is translucent and the carrots are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Add 1 quart (4 cups) low sodium chicken broth, 2 (14.5 – 15 oz.) cans diced tomatoes with Italian herbs, 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning, and 2 finely chopped cloves of garlic; bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Stir in 2 cups chopped, cooked turkey and the tortellini; continue cooking a few minutes until heated through. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. If desired, top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Turkey Salsa Soup (Mexican) Combine 2 cups mild, chunky salsa; 2 cups frozen whole kernel corn; 2 (15-ounce) cans black soybeans, rinsed and drained; 2 cups chopped, cooked turkey; and 4 cups low sodium chicken broth in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. If desired, top with grated cheddar cheese.

Turkey Mediterranean Soup (Mediterranean) In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, sautĂŠ in 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil over medium to medium-high heat: 1 chopped, sweet yellow onion; 1 cup thinly sliced carrots; and 1 red bell pepper, diced, for about 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent and the vegetables are tendercrisp. Add 2 (14.5- to 15-ounce) cans of diced tomatoes; 4 cups low sodium chicken broth; 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped; 1 tablespoon dried basil; and 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano leaves.

Cover pot and simmer for 10 minutes. Add in 2 cups chopped, cooked turkey; and 2 (15-ounce) cans Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained. Continue simmering until heated through.

Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. If desired, top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Here are a few food safety tips for handling leftover soup and turkey:

Make a large batch of soup and enjoy some for another meal. Many soups, with the possible exception of seafood soups, may taste better the

next day. For best safety and quality, plan to eat refrigerated soup within three to four days or freeze it. And avoid letting soup set at room temperature for more than two hours.

Don’t put a large pot of hot soup directly into your refrigerator. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it would take an 8-inch stock pot of steaming soup 24 hours to cool to a safe temperature in your refrigerator.

To speed cooling, transfer

soup to shallow containers, no more than 2 inches deep. Refrigerate promptly. You can place loosely covered foods in the refrigerator while still warm; cover when completely cooled.

When serving soup a second time, reheat it until it’s steaming hot throughout, at least 165 degrees.

Discard any turkey, stuffing and gravy left out at room temperature longer than two hours.

Divide leftovers into smaller portions. Refrigerate or freeze in covered shallow containers for quicker cooling.

Use refrigerated turkey, stuffing and gravy within four days.

If freezing leftovers, use within six months for best quality. — Susan Krumm is an Extension agent in family and consumer sciences with K-State Research and ExtensionDouglas County, 2110 Harper St. She can be reached at 843-7058.

Platter up! Cheese makes for easy entertaining Fork

By Lisa Abraham

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8B

Akron Beacon Journal

A cheese platter is a staple of home entertaining, but spending a little extra time at the cheese shop can help you create a board that rises above the average lump of cheddar.

Cheese is probably the easiest appetizer to serve because it requires no preparation and is universally enjoyed. (There’s a reason why you see it at every party.)

When putting together a cheese platter, there are no rules, but there are a few guidelines that can help make the presentation both tasty and interesting.

First, consider how much cheese you will need.

D.J. Shisler, owner of Shisler’s Cheese House in Copley, Ohio, said the number of guests you will be serving helps to determine this, as well as whether the cheese will be one of the main offerings.

If you’re having just a wine and cheese affair, plan on about 4 ounces of cheese per person. If the cheese platter is one of several offerings, then no more than 2 ounces per guest.

Next consider how many different types of cheese to use. You’ll want at least three, but never more than six.

If you have more than six kinds, the cheeses start to lose their distinction, which, as Shisler said, is a major point. When making your selections, Shisler said the main goal is offering a variety of tastes and textures.

“Make sure that every cheese you put on that platter is different and distinguishable,” he said.

Cheeses come from three main groups — cow’s milk, f goat’s milk, and sheep’s milk.

The best plates offer a combination of the three. You can also pick a theme for the platter, serving all French chees-

IT’S NOT HARD TO PUT TOGETHER an appetizing cheese platter if you follow a few tips. Choose cheeses that offer a variety of tastes and textures, and set out both sweet and savory accompaniments, from fruit to olives to bread. A blue cheese is always a good idea. es, all Spanish or all Italian, for example.

In “The Murray’s Cheese Handbook” (Broadway Books, 2006), authors Rob Kaufelt and Liz Thorpe suggest picking cheeses from the following seven groups: fresh, bloomy (like Brie or Camembert), washed rind (like Taleggio), semisoft, firm, hard and blue.

A good cheese shop will have a variety of each.

Even if you just select three types of cheese, make sure they are each from a different group.

It’s always a good idea to include a veiny blue cheese in the mix. Shisler said folks are often surprised by blue cheese served on its own.

They are so used to having it crumbled into salads that

people often overlook it as a cheese to serve on a board.

Once you make your selections, arrange them on a platter in a clockwise position (you can begin at 6 or 12), starting with the mildest and ending with the strongest.

Finally, garnish the platter with flair.

Selecting the right accompaniments to go with the cheese is as important as choosing the cheese itself.

Dried cured meats, olives, nuts, bread and dried and fresh fruit are all great, traditional choices.

But Shisler said other condiments, such as fig spread or mustards, go well with cheese. Shisler said Spanish quince paste, known as membrillo, is sweet and tart and offsets the sharpness of

Spanish manchego, a sheep’s milk cheese.

Honey is another unexpected accompaniment that can be drizzled on blue or other sharp cheeses such as goat cheese, he said.

Grapes, pears, apples and figs all will help to round out the platter.

Shisler said it’s a good idea to leave the cheese in wedges, but cut a few slices from each to start them off.

When it comes to serving, always make sure that cheese has been allowed to sit at room temperature for at least half an hour or even an hour before serving.

Shisler said cheeses won’t spoil that quickly and the difference in taste between cold cheese and room temperature is remarkable.

Couple the cost with the health factor — Adair would rather avoid additives — and there’s no way any of that stuff will end up in her cart, anyway.

“Healthy has always been my big thing. It’s hard — how do you come up with some-

Of course, I could get a microwave meal and have it done in two minutes, but it’s loaded with sodium,” Adair says. “There was somebody who (did) a cost analysis of a specific convenience item based on the amount of time it saved you. And most of it was just an absolute joke.”

bined it with the rest of the sauce.

Then I added four cloves of garlic, diced, and two heaping teaspoons of kosher salt. I also added a heaping teaspoon of both basil and oregano, and a dash of fennel, which is also not traditional, but I just like it.

Into the pot went a cup of red wine, and I let that simmer for a couple of minutes.

Then I added a can of petite diced tomatoes. (These could be left out if you wanted to be more authentic.) I let that simmer for 10 or 15 minutes.

Longer would be good but we were hungry.

Lastly, about five minutes before serving, I turned up the heat a little and added a cup of milk. I hear there is some debate over whether the milk should really be included, and so I tasted my sauce before I added it and again after, and I cannot suggest strongly enough that you do, indeed, add the milk. It didn’t really taste to me like Bolognese until I added it.

A chef-friend of mine suggested that the addition of the milk causes a mild caramelization and adds a bit of sweetness to the dish. I don’t know about all that — it’s be-

But a wider noodle that can really hold the sauce is preferable.

Regardless, we enjoyed it very much and it was a nice departure from our usual Sunday gravy. Plus, it was full of carrots and celery, so I felt that it was actually health food.

AUDREY ADAIR HELPS HER MOM, KRIS, make dinner by prepping an avocado for the family’s food processor. Kris Adair says gadgets like the food processor and microwave help her get dinner on the table in a flash.

Planning + preparation = dinner in a jiffy

By Sarah Henning sarah@lawrence.com

The fast and the furious: A movie franchise, yes, but also an apt description of dinners made on weeknights this time of the year. Holiday stuff, school stuff, work stuff, and life-in-general stuff are bound to get in the way as daylight savings barrels down upon the dinner table.

But throwing together dinner at a furiously fast pace doesn’t have to mean a sloppy pasta-andstore-bought-sauce concoction or frozen dinners. Instead, it can be healthy, tasty and just as tempting as something you spend all Sunday slaving over.

The trick? Well, there isn’t just one trick, there are a whole bunch of little things that add up to quick weeknight dinners.

Simple recipes = simply more time. Start dinner off right with the right recipe. Busy mom Kris Adair says that when trying to figure out if a recipe is quick, it’s important first to study the ingredient list — don’t just judge it by its name or what book it’s in, she says.

“I adore Rachael Ray ... but she has 15 ingredients or 27 ingredients and I’m going, ‘Oh my gosh, I want five ingredients,’” says Adair, who works part time and has two young girls, Audrey and Maurene. “Once Audrey started school, I started working in the afternoon, and so you go home and you literally just want to sit down. Everybody’s hungry and pulling on your skirts.”

Arm yourself with a plan. Planning ahead of time is the quickest way to cut down on the dinnertime rush, says Kansas City chef Nancy Stark, who plans her meals — and leftovers — in advance.

“If you already know, ‘On Tuesday night we’re going to have pizza and on Wednesday night we’re going to have pad Thai,’ you’ve got all the materials in the house, and you can do a little advance work if you need to,” says

and throwing it in the fridge is the perfect way to get yourself ahead without devoting extra time.

Stock your freezer. Adair has a deep freeze and uses it to help dinnertime by not only freezing prepared meals (like casseroles) but also by storing frozen veggies of all stripes. It’s a system that has evolved over time.

“I’ve learned a lot of tricks, like, you can buy prepackaged onions, well, I can chop an onion and then you freeze it,” says Adair, who has a freezer full of pre-chopped goodies from the CSA bag she received all summer. “When I first started cooking, I would go and buy all that stuff frozen. Until I Kevin Anderson/Journal-World Photo realized that it was just choppedup onions.”

Now, let me be honest here.

What I made, while delicious, was not a “traditional” Bolognese. I admit it here and now, so please don’t sic your Italian grandma on me for defaming the homeland. I made spaghetti alla Bolognese, because that is what I had the stuff for, and that is what sounded good to me at the moment. Sue me. Also, I didn’t have time to make fresh pasta, which is the hallmark of a good Bolognese dish. I do recommend finding said time, but you know, we do with what we have.

Authentic Bolognese sauce has little or no tomato in it.

What I made has tomatoes, and is a sort of an American version.

But, hey, I like tomatoes. And in the absence of fresh pasta, I wanted a sauce more robust than traditional Bolognese, which is somewhat mild. Traditional Bolognese is a perfect compliment for fresh pasta, because the pasta is what you really want to highlight, but I was using dried spaghetti and there’s nothing too spectacular about that.

To start, I heated 1/3 cup of olive oil in a stock pot, and then shredded two large carrots in the food processor. You could use a grater, which might be better because the pieces would be smaller, but I am too lazy and old for all that hand-grating.

I also chopped three stalks of celery into very small pieces, and half a large red onion. All of that went into the hot oil and cooked over medium-high heat for about five minutes.

Then I scooted the vegetables to the outer edge of the pot and added 2 pounds of ground beef to the well in the center. I used a rigid spatula to start breaking up the beef. You want your ground beef pieces to be very tiny, almost granular. As it browned on one side, I began to turn it and allowed it to brown on the other, constantly breaking it up into smaller pieces. You can also use sausage for this, and nothing is ever made worse with sausage.

Once it was all brown, I created yet another well and added one small can of tomato paste to the center. I let that heat for a minute or two and then comPlease see FORK, page 7B

Pay a visit for a better assessment Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

judge from a phone call. You could be projecting your own fears onto a situation where the children are perfectly happy. Please plan a visit to see your brother so you can better assess the situation. If there is indeed such extreme favoritism going on, it will be easier to discuss it with Lenny and his wife when you can lovingly point out what they seem oblivious to. And it also provides an opportunity to give the less-favored brother some extra TLC while you’re at it.

Dear Annie: I have known “Paula” since high school.

She has been married for five years and has a year-old son.

She doesn’t get along with her husband and calls me often, sometimes crying, to tell me all the terrible things he does and says.

Not every phone call is like this. Sometimes the sub-

Texas chefs, nothing much and the animal house Everything is bigger in the Lone Star State. Even the cast of “Top Chef: Texas” (9 p.m., Bravo). For the first time, 29 kitchen professionals will compete for the title of Top Chef in locations including Austin, San Antonio and Dallas. The list gets cut to 16 hopefuls rather quickly, so pay close attention!

Emeril Lagasse, no stranger to cable television, will appear as a guest judge this season, as will Hugh Acheson. Returning taste arbiters include Tom Colicchio, Gail Simmons and Padma Lakshmi.

The “Top Chef” worthies will also prepare meals for a number of notables, from Charlize Theron to Patti LaBelle and Pee-wee Herman. Scream real loud!

“Seinfeld” claimed to be a show about nothing, but this is the real deal. “NOVA” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) presents “The Fabric of the Cosmos,” a mindbending contemplation of space itself.

Not the space you think of when you see a sky full of stars, but empty space, the entity devoid of matter entirely.

Host and physicist Brian Greene explains that this space may not contain anything, but it defines the shape and behavior of the universe. He also tells us how scientists have been thinking about the nature of empty space ever since Isaac Newton. A challenging and thought- provoking hour for those who are up to it.

“Nature” (7 p.m., PBS, check local listings) presents a more accessible science show titled “The Animal House,” a look at the elaborate and amazing shelters built by animals and insects for millions of years. We’re shown how beavers in Jackson Hole, Wyo., can chew up whole forests for their enormous dams and lodges that protect them from fierce winters. We also visit with prairie dogs, which have underground warrens that even include little bathrooms that keep waste separate from their living quarters.

But no building critter has anything on the ants, which, we are shown, really put themselves into their work, using their own bodies as construction material!

Building prowess respects no evolutionary hierarchy. Bugs and bats have become masters of manipulating their shelters, but some higher primates — close cousins to human beings — don’t have enough sense to get out of the rain.

Tonight’s other highlights

Paula is obviously having a difficult time coping. She needs to talk about it — a lot.

If you can allow her to vent, that would be supportive of you. You do not need to offer advice. But if that is too exhausting, it’s OK to tell her gently that you do not have the energy to be her sounding board and you hope she is discussing these things with her therapist.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Wednesday, Nov. 2: This year evokes new energy and spirit in your life. An innate talent or resource might add to your income. If you are single, you will be inclined to spruce up even more and be more expressive.

You might attract a different type of person. If you are attached, the two of you need to delegate your funds together, or keep separate accounts.

Aquarius can trigger you.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Emphasize the long term. Try to gain a realistic overview of what you must accomplish today and by Friday. Tonight: Where the action is.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) State your intentions. Deal with others individually and directly.

A partner or associate assumes a more dominant position than in the past.

Tonight: A must appearance.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Tension builds.

Take an overview and detach. See what is going on behind the scenes. You will understand much more.

Dear Annie: My brother, “Lenny,” lives in upstate New York, and I live in Texas, but we’ve always been close and call each other often. Lenny has been raising two grandsons, ages 9 and 10, since the parents died in an accident four years ago. They are both good boys.

The problem is Lenny’s favoritism. One boy has everything: a smart phone, a TV, a sunny corner bedroom, cool clothes and great Christmas and birthday gifts. You can hear the love in Lenny’s voice when he talks about that child. Not so with the other boy. That child lives in a large, unpainted and windowless storage room next to their laundry. While his brother received an iPod for his birthday, this child got a plastic AM/FM radio.

These boys love each other, but I can see where such disparity has to be affecting them. I have tried to discuss this with Lenny, but neither he nor his wife sees any problem at all because they say they give each child what that boy asks for, nothing more, nothing less. What can I do? I feel my hands are tied while my heart is ripping apart. — Twin in Texas Dear Twin: Someone should pay that family a visit and see what is really going on. It’s sometimes hard to
