Ex-Williams Fund leader pleads guilty in tickets case Rodney Jones also agrees to cooperate in prosecution of others By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

WICHITA — Rodney Jones pleaded guilty Friday to his role in a five-year conspiracy to steal, distribute and pocket proceeds from the sale of Kansas University basketball and football tickets through ticket brokers. Selling season basketball tickets through one broker alone generated proceeds of more than $975,000, the former assistant athletics director admitted in U.S. District Court in Wichita. “Are you telling the court that you’re guilty?” asked U.S. DisFormer ticket trict manager Kassie Judge Liebsch, had Wesley pleaded guilty to Brown. conspiracy the “Yes, day before. sir,” Jones said. Brown accepted Jones’ guilty plea to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, a conviction punishable by up to 20 years in prison, a $250,000 fine and responsibility for paying on a monetary judgment of up to $2 million. “He has accepted responsibility for his role in the diversion and sale of tickets from Kansas University,” said Gerald Handley, Jones’ attorney. “He deeply regrets his involvement in this episode. He apologizes to the university for his conduct. He has agreed to and is cooperating with the authorities to resolve the issues that are

TOPEKA — Democratic leaders in the Legislature on Friday criticized Gov. Sam Brownback’s proposal to cut base state aid per pupil back to levels last seen in the 1990s. They said the Legislature should try to repeal some tax exemptions and loopholes to find additional funds for schools. “To me, funding schools is the absolute most important thing that we can do,” House Democratic Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence said. The proposed cuts will result in teacher layoffs, larger Brownback class sizes and local property tax increases, educators and legislators have said. “Teachers deeply understand that students and their learning will suffer when teachers, counselors, librarians and support professionals lose their jobs,” said Blake West, president of the Kansas National Education Association. “Every community in our state depends upon its local schools,”

SATURDAY • JANUARY 15 • 2011

TOPEKA — The Kansas Sierra Club on Friday filed a legal challenge to the state permit for an 895-megawatt coal-burning electric power plant in southwest Kansas.

The lawsuit alleges that the permit issued last month by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment fails to adequately control hazardous pollutants that could endanger Kansans. It also says that the permitting process was improperly influ-

enced by special interests. “When it comes to millions of tons of pollution for a coal plant that is not needed for Kansas, there is no place for mistake or misconduct,” said Stephanie Cole, a spokeswoman for the Kansas Sierra Club. The proposal by Sunflower

Electric Power Corp. to build a coal-fired plant near Holcomb has been at the center of controversy for several years. In 2007, then-KDHE Secretary Roderick Bremby rejected Sunflower Electric’s proposal to Please see SIERRA, page 5A

Proposed legislation calls for prison in hit-and-runs By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

After hearing from victims’ family members, Kansas lawmakers have introduced a bill that would make those who leave the scene of a fatal hit-and-run accident face prison time. The bill would increase the punishment for the crime to up to 32 months in prison. Charles Branson, Douglas County district attorney, said that one of the hardest things he has to do is explain to families of victims why the law doesn’t allow defendants to be held accountable for their crimes. “We have a problem in Kansas with DUIs and people circumventing DUI laws,” Branson said.

And in many of these hit-and-run cases, that’s exactly what’s happening, he said. Defendants are leaving the scene, and often turning themselves in the next day to Branson rob the state of evidence in a DUI case. As it stands today, someone who leaves the scene of a fatal crash would likely face only probation. “I think everyone knows it’s the right thing to do, to stay at the scene of an accident, and at least call the authorities for help,” said Jeff Stolz, whose sister-in-law, Rachel Leek, died in a hit-and-run accident in October 2009.

Leek was riding her bicycle just south of 10th and Tennessee streets when she was hit and left unconscious. State Rep. Paul Davis, DLawrence, and state Sen. Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City, said at a Friday news conference that they supported the legislation. Davis said he introduced it after he heard from families who had been affected by the law, and saw defendants get off with lighter sentences than they deserved. “As folks in Lawrence and Douglas County are well aware, we’ve had a couple of terrible tragedies in the last couple years,” Davis said. Leaving the scene of a fatality accident would increase from a level nine person felony to a level five per-

son felony. The severity of the punishment for the charge of leaving the scene of an accident that caused great bodily harm would also increase under the bill, as the charge would increase from a level 10 to a level eight person felony. Davis expressed optimism that the bill would become law, and hearings for the bill will be scheduled soon. “I’ll be ecstatic if it happens,” said Ryan Crum, who has also fought for the changes in the law since his father, Thomas Crum, was killed in a hit-and-run accident in May 2008. “Basically what I wanted to do was force people to do what’s right.” — Higher education reporter Andy Hyland can be reached at 832-6388.

The owner of MagnaGro International, a Lawrencebased agricultural fertilizer company that has caught the ire of federal agencies and the city, was arrested Friday afternoon on a federal warrant. According to Douglas County Jail records, Raymond Glen Sawyer, 59, was booked into the Douglas County Jail just before noon on a federal hold warrant without bond. But federal officials said they could not comment on the arrest. According to federal court records, U.S. District Judge Julie A. Robinson on Wednesday filed a sealed order in the 2008 case against Sawyer and the company, 600 E. 22nd St., that had been closed since July of 2010. In that case, Sawyer pleaded guilty in 2009 to discharging waste from a fertilizer operation into the city’s sewer system. He received five years of probation, and Sawyer and the company had to pay a $240,000 fine. A spokesman for U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said Friday afternoon he could not comment on matters that have been sealed by a federal judge. In October, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued a civil complaint and compliance order against MagnaGro for failing to tell the agency what hazardous wastes were on the site. In April of last year two men suffocated when they were overcome by fumes from a material being mixed at the site. City officials later declared the site “unfit for human occupancy” and boarded the doors.

New judge takes seat on bench By George Diepenbrock 1 | TUNISIA

gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Leader driven from power in uprising After 23 years of iron-fisted rule, the president of Tunisia was driven from power Friday by violent protests over soaring unemployment and corruption. Virtually unprecedented in modern Arab history, the populist uprising sent an ominous message to authoritarian governments that dominate the region. The office of Saudi King Abdullah confirmed early today that ousted President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and his family had landed in Saudi Arabia, after several hours of mystery over his whereabouts. “As a result of the Saudi kingdom’s respect for the exceptional circumstances the Tunisian people are going through, and with its wish for peace and security to return to the people of Tunis, we have welcomed” him, the statement said. Tunisians buoyant over Ben Ali’s ouster faced uncertainly, however, about what’s next for the North African nation. The country was under the caretaker leadership of the prime minister who took control, the role of the army in the transition was unknown, and it was uncertain whether Ben Ali’s departure would be enough to restore calm.

For Kay Huff, the idea of becoming a judge was mentioned before she even started law school. Huff’s thesis adviser at Reed College in Oregon brought it up when she was an undergraduate. And after she became a lawyer, Huff clerked for the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. “I thought being a judge would be a nice thing, a thing that I would aspire to,” she said Monday during an interview. On Friday, her aspiration became a reality as the Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo Lawrence attorney was sworn in as Douglas County’s newest JONATHAN KAHN, LEFT, WATCHES as his wife, Kay Huff, is sworn in judge.

Report: Women should be in combat Women should finally be allowed to serve fully in combat, a military advisory panel said Friday in a report seeking to dismantle the last major area of discrimination in the armed forces. The call by a commission of current and retired military officers to let women be front-line fighters could set in motion another sea change in military culture as the armed forces, generations after racial barriers fell, grapples with the phasing out of the ban on gays serving openly. The newest move is being recommended by the Military Leadership Diversity Commission, established by Congress two years ago. The panel was to send its proposals to Congress and President Barack Obama. It is time “to create a level playing field for all qualified service members,” the members said.

Republicans are sure to call attention to the “changes” initiated by Obama and question whether they have been good or bad for the country. Unemployment numbers are likely to remain high, and forecasts call for even greater numbers of home foreclosures. They will say the economic situation is worse today than it was when Obama moved into the White House and that he has not fulfilled the pledges he made during his first presidential campaign. How will the Tucson shooting affect the next 22 months of desperate Democratic efforts to bounce back from the 2010 elections? And how will the GOP structure its efforts to oust Obama and gain numbers in the House and Senate? How will Democrats try to counter the tea party efforts? How long will Democrats use their hatred of Bush as a means to energize their campaign workers and contributors? Neither those in the Republican nor Democratic trenches want to be portrayed as breaking any truce that may have come about due to the Tucson shootings, but, chances are, hard-hitting attacks will emerge within a short time. It’s a massive political war with huge stakes on the outcome. The verbal bullets are bound to start flying sometime soon as memories and nicesounding pledges begin to fade.

Under health reform, can my son stay on my health insurance until age 26 or through age 26? What are the requirements for him to do so?

CLEARANCE 10%-70% SALE

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act requires insurers that offer dependent coverage to make the coverage available until the adult child reaches age 26, according to the Kansas Insurance Department. Both married and unmarried children qualify for the coverage. The rule applies to all plans in the individual market and to new employer plans. It also applies to existing employer plans unless the adult child has another offer of employerbased coverage. Beginning in 2014, children up to age 26 can stay on their parent’s employer plan even if they have another offer of coverage through an employer. For more information, visit the U.S. Health and Human Services website at www.hhs. gov/ociio/regulations/adult_ child_faq.html or call the Kansas Insurance Department at 785-296-3071.

According to Lawrence police Sgt. Dave Hubbel, a man had been arguing with the attendant about the functionality of the facility’s vacuum. The man was upset and tapped what appeared to be a handgun on the window in front of the attendant. The man then left the scene but the attendant was able to record the license plate of the vehicle. Officers later found the suspect in his home and arrested him on charges of aggravated assault. A BB gun was found in the vehicle. No one was injured during the incident.

Sierra Club challenges coal-fired plant CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

build two 700-megawatt plants, citing the project’s carbon dioxide emissions’ impact on climate change and health. The Legislature tried to overturn the decision but was thwarted by then-Gov. Kathleen Sebelius’ vetoes. After Sebelius left office in 2009 to become a Cabinet secretary for President Barack Obama, Mark Parkinson became governor and brokered a deal with Sunflower that allowed Sunflower to seek a permit for one 895-megawatt plant. As the permit decision neared Bremby again, some supporters of the project complained that Bremby was dragging his feet.

In November, Bremby was suddenly no longer secretary. Parkinson had said he asked Bremby to take a job to help manage the transition of incoming Gov. Sam Brownback and Bremby refused. Just weeks after Bremby was gone, the new permit was issued by John Mitchell, who was serving as acting secretary of KDHE. At the time, Mitchell said, “I am conf ident that we have the best permit possible for Kansas. The Sunflower proposed expansion project meets all current state and federal requirements for issuing the permit.” Under the proposal, Sunflower’s partner, Tri-State Transmission and Genera-

The Environmental Protection Agency has also announced that it would review the permit to see if it complies with the Clean Air Act. The lawsuit, which was filed in the Kansas Court of Appeals by attorney Bob Eye and attorneys for Earthjustice, alleges that the permit fails to set appropriate limits for hazardous pollutants, such as mercury. Sunflower has maintained that the plant would be among the cleanest coalburning plants in the nation.

Former Williams Fund director pleads guilty in KU ticket scam case CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Kansas City area told authorities that he “understood that the tickets were being obtained legally,” said Richard Hathaway, assistant U.S. attorney. But that was not the case, as such tickets were taken before they could be made available to donors through normal channels. Also part of the scheme, Hathaway said: ● The Internal Revenue Service used a variety of investigative techniques to discover that ticket brokers in the Kansas City area were receiving “an inordinate number” of KU basketball season tickets. These brokers were writing large checks to “cash” and then “a friend and associate” of Jones was taking the cash to Jones. ● The IRS sifted through the associate’s trash and found corresponding ticket stubs that all had consecutive numbers except for one. Jones was identified as having received those tickets. ● The IRS and FBI went to

KU and determined Jones had not been reporting this outside income, thus violating both NCAA and university rules. ● The IRS determined Jones had converted 450 “cash hoards” into money orders from Western Union, each for $400 to $500 so he could avoid currency reporting requirements. After Hathaway had finished, Brown asked Jones to confirm what he’d heard. “Is that a true and accurate statement of what happened?” the judge asked. “Yes, sir,” Jones said, using the phrase he would repeat more than 50 times during his 45-minute hearing. As part of his plea agreement, Jones pledged to cooperate with authorities on any future investigation, hearings or trials regarding the case. He also must forfeit any assets gained as a result of the scheme. No assets have yet been forfeited, Hathaway said. In addition to Liebsch, two other former co-workers of

Jones already have pleaded guilty and are cooperating with prosecutors: Jason Jeffries and Brandon Simmons await sentencing March 7 on charges that they failed to notify authorities about the scam. Sentencing for Liebsch is set for 10 a.m. March 30, and Jones is scheduled to be sentenced at 10:30 a.m. March 31. In exchange for their cooperation, federal prosecutors have agreed to recommend reduced sentences in relation to those outlined in federal sentencing guidelines. Jones remains free as he awaits sentencing, and Brown reminded him that he must comply with conditions stipulated in his bond agreement. “It says, in effect: ‘Keep your nose clean,’” Brown said. Jones chuckled slightly before leaning in toward his microphone. “Yes, sir,” he said. — Schools reporter Mark Fagan can be reached at 832-7188.

Bond revoked for man convicted of robbery

live chat? E-mail it to wmathews@ljworld.com.

A Douglas County judge on Friday agreed to revoke bond for an 18-year-old Lawrence man who was convicted a week ago of robbery and other charges. District Judge Sally Pokorny on Jan. 7 had agreed to let Jermel Fleming continue on bond until his Feb. 7 sentencing after a jury convicted him of robbery and four other charges in connection with a June robbery of a Kansas University student in the 900 block of Tennessee Street. But last weekend Lawrence police arrested Fleming on a warrant, and prosecutors accused him of intimidating a witness in the case. Attorneys in court Friday said the intimidation allegations stemmed from a Dec. 28 text message he sent to a Lawrence woman before the trial. Defense attorney Branden Smith had argued the woman was not subpoenaed as a witness in the case, but Pokorny ruled that was not a legal requirement.

Candidates seeking school board seats

Dads Group hosting swimming event

Candidates are lining up to run for seats on area school boards. Four candidates filed Friday at the Douglas County Courthouse: ● Marlene Merrill, for one of four seats on the Lawrence school board.

She is an attorney and member of the district’s Lawrence Elementary School Facility Vision Task Force. ● Tony Wedel, for the atlarge position on the Baldwin City school board. ● Bryan Maring, for a seat on the Eudora school board. The filing deadline for candidates is noon Jan. 25 at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Mass. The filing fee is $5.

Don’t leave running car unattended By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

Lawrence police are warning residents not to leave their cars unattended as they try to warm them up in cold weather after five cars have been stolen in the last week. “Don’t leave it in your driveway where they can see exhaust because they are going to take it,” said Sgt. Matt Sarna, a police spokesman. “Don’t leave yourself vulnerable to that type of situation.” Sarna said four of the vehicles have been recovered. Police are still looking for the fifth vehicle. “Locking the doors may deter some thieves, but many

will simply break the glass using a rock or tool in order to gain entry into the vehicle,” Sarna said. Sarna said residents should not leave their vehicles running and unattended whether they are in the driveway or if they run briefly inside to grab something at a convenience store. It’s also against a city ordinance to leave running vehicles, and a violation can carry an $80 fine plus $53 in court costs. Police see these types of thefts every winter, Sarna

said, but officers are concerned to have so many in a short period of time. “This year we’ve seen more than we want to see,” he said. Other tips from Sarna: ● Turn off the engine, remove the key and lock your vehicle each time you leave it. ● Never leave children unattended in a vehicle. ● Anyone with information about a stolen vehicle or another crime can call police at 785-832-7650 or Douglas County Crime Stoppers at 785-843-TIPS (8477). — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

New judge Huff takes seat on bench CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Chief District Judge Robert Fairchild as her husband, Jonathan Kahn, a retired attorney, helped her put on her new robe. Huff replaces District Judge Jean Shepherd, the county’s f irst female judge who had served since 1984. Huff, 53, promised to be fair and impartial. She will handle criminal, limited civil, divorce and other family law cases after former Gov. Mark Parkinson nominated her in December. “It is hard to replace Judge Shepherd since many years of judicial experience walk out of the courthouse with her,” Huff said. “But I’m proud to have the opportunity to be a judge in Douglas County.” Shepherd and retired judge Jack Murphy, along with the county’s other judges and Kansas Supreme Court Jus-

tice Eric Rosen, looked on as Huff spoke during the ceremony in Fairchild’s courtroom at the judicial center, 111 E. 11th St. Dozens of her family members plus fellow attorneys and judicial employees were in attendance. Huff has been in private practice in Lawrence since 1991 handling both criminal and civil work. In addition to her time as a judicial clerk, Huff has also served as a public defender in Olathe and as a criminal appeals attorney in New York from 1985 to 1988. “It shows how well-rounded she is and what she’s going to bring to the bench,” Fairchild said. She grew up on a farm in northwest Missouri. She said moving to the Lawrence area two decades ago allowed her to be closer to family and said her roots would come into

play during her time on the bench. “My parents believed in hard work and believed in community,” Huff said. Fellow attorneys and friends were enthusiastic about Huff taking office. “She’s bright, intelligent, curious and interested in the community — a real solid addition to the bench,” said Charles Whitman, a Lawrence defense attorney. Huff, who will attend training for new Kansas judges next week, expects her job to be a challenge and says she intends to focus on making sure all parties in her courtroom get to voice their concerns. “I think the process is important,” she said, “in that people are heard.” — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144.

Guilty verdict returned for sex abuse CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

A jury of six men and six women found Richard Gonzalez, 68, guilty of aggravated criminal sodomy and aggravated indecent liberties with a child. Because of the age of the victim, Gonzalez faces 25 years to life in prison on each count. His defense attorney said an appeal was a certainty and criticized the fact the girl took the stand and didn’t talk about her allegations, Rather, he said, prosecutors were able to use as evidence the video of a 2009 interview the girl did with a social worker. “Obviously Mr. Gonzalez is an innocent man,” defense attorney Branden Bell said. “It’s unfortunate that in these types of cases the Legislature has carved out specif ic exceptions of the typical rules of evidence that basically don’t really allow you to present a defense.” According to testimony, the girl told her mother the man molested her during nap time at the day care. The girl, who had started attending the day care earlier in the summer, was eventually examined at a hospital, and investigators began looking into the case. McGowan said it was significant that the girl brought up the allegations unsolicited one day to her mother. “The only thing she had to protect her was the ability to tell somebody else about it,” McGowan said during closing arguments. But Bell told jurors the girl had an overactive imagination and that investigators improperly interviewed the girl, causing her to detail the allegations. “There is not one piece of evidence the state has brought to you that is uncon-

troverted,” he said during closing arguments. Gonzalez lived on the property in 2009 that was home to the Miles of Smiles Child Daycare Center southwest of Lawrence. According to Kansas Department of Health and Environment records, the day care center closed in July 2010. The defendant’s daughter Gloria Windholz, who owned the business, testified Thursday for the defense and said she would spend nap time with the girl when she was in her care and that she never saw anything improper happen. Bell said it was important that before this case Gonzalez had never been accused of any remotely similar acts even though he had been around children for 10 years in Windholz’s day care. But McGowan told jurors other witnesses said Windholz told them she would often sleep upstairs during nap time so she couldn’t have always been with the girl. “What we have charged and proven, what the defendant did, is deviant behavior,” McGowan said, “and it requires some stealth to do it.”

Victims’ testimony Although the victim said she didn’t remember the allegations and didn’t want to

talk about them when she testified in court Wednesday morning, McGowan said the state had enough physical evidence to support what she told the social worker in the 2009 interview. “The system just isn’t built for young children as victims of crimes,” the prosecutor said. Jurors heard medical evidence from a sexual assault nurse who examined the girl and DNA evidence from an investigator who tested a sample found in the girl’s underwear. Bell has argued the state’s DNA evidence in the case is suspect, but McGowan said the testing could not exclude the defendant’s DNA. Bell said no one, including investigators, ever asked the girl if she made up the story. “We’ll never know what she would have said if she was asked that, and that’s reasonable doubt,” Bell said. But McGowan said there was enough DNA and medical evidence to corroborate the girl’s allegations. “That is rare to find in a case of child sexual abuse,” she said. Judge Sally Pokorny is scheduled to sentence Gonzalez on Feb. 21. — Reporter George Diepenbrock can be reached at 832-7144. Follow him at Twitter.com/lawrencecrime.

I certainly attract attention — I’m a bull terrier mix, all white but for those two black eye patches. Yes, I’m a very pretty girl. At only one year old, I’m friendly, well mannered, attentive, and I love to play. I’m also protective of those I love, and I’d like to be the only dog in your home. I’ll want to be loyal and devoted to that special someone. Plus, for a limited time my adoption fee has been reduced to just 35 bucks!

I was an adorable little girl when I came to the shelter as a puppy. Now, 8 months later, I’m still here, a little bigger, and even more adorable. I’m happy-go-lucky, outgoing, eager to learn, and I really long for affection. I’m a black Lab and please give me a chance — you’ll never find a better friend than me. And right now my adoption fee is only $35 total!

Could you ask for a sweeter face? I’m a well-mannered blue heeler/Australian cattle dog, white with red ticking all over except for my happy black ears! I’m 5 to 6 years—just the right age to settle down with you. I’m a friendly girl, enjoy the outdoors, love to play, know basic commands, and have so much to give to a new family. Know what else is sweet? My special reduced adoption fee: 35 dollars!

I’m an eye-catching boy with my soft black and white coat. But it’s that little black spot on my nose that gets me a smile from everyone! I’m just a kid, about 15 months old. And although I don’t care for all the noise at the shelter, I’m very social and very loving, and I get along great with other cats. Hey, away from the fray in a home of my own, just imagine what I could be!

I was lost almost a year ago, so I’ve been “on the hunt” for a new loving home for a long time now. I’m quite the inquisitive girl, and my big bright eyes enjoy watching the world around me. I just need a bigger world, like your world! I’m 2 to 3 years old, and my striped coat is super soft. I like a good petting session, am very outgoing, love to play, and am longing to be the joy of your life.

I stick close to people because all the noise at the shelter scares me a little. I am a bit timid here, so would someone please take me home where I can relax and be the real me? I’m a sweet girl, 2 to 3 years old, and quite an elegantly marked calico kitty. You’ll see what I mean when you see me. I spend my days imagining the home I’ll have someday — someday soon I hope.

My breed, a border collie mix, is known for being intelligent, athletic, and eager to learn. That’s me, all right! And my black and white coat makes me a “looker” too. I’m a young lad, kind and loving, and very playful. I’ll need daily exercise to live a happy and healthy life. If you want an active, eager-toplease companion, I’m for you. Do you have $35? That’s my special adoption fee right now. Come on!

HOLIDAY SPENDING

Blue Dandelion, a children’s boutique,

‘Record’ not as good as it looks By Ellen Gibson Associated Press Writer

Holiday spending reached the highest level on record last year, but that news isn’t as good as it sounds. The $462 billion in holiday spending reported by a trade group on Friday handily tops the $453 billion peak reached in 2007, before the economy took a nosedive. Take a closer look, though, and these figures don’t tell the whole story. Just because Americans spent more this holiday season doesn’t mean they bought more. That button-down shirt you bought your father in 2010 probably cost more than it would have three years ago. But the government figures on which the National Retail Federation bases its holiday sum do not take into account rising prices. Although infla-

tion has been tame over the past few years, holiday spending would have had to clear $478 billion to signify spending was back to pre-recession levels. That’s not all. The population of the U.S. has grown by 8 million people since the previous record was set. That means there were millions more shoppers in stores this Christmas, driving up the sales total. But the average spending per person is still lower than it was a few years ago, suggesting consumers are still slower to pull out their wallets. “Everyone is talking about great holiday sales, and it’s undeniable that the consumer mood has improved. But even if spending surpassed its previous peak, the population has been growing, so we’re still catching up,” said Chris

Christopher, senior economist at IHS Global Insight. The holiday season is defined by the NRF as the two months starting Nov. 1 and ending Dec. 31. November revenue was strong as retailers rolled out discounts early, while December was a little weaker. But stores didn’t have to slash prices as Christmas approached the way they did in 2009, and many merchants reported strong growth. This past season’s revenue marked a 5.7 percent increase over holiday 2009. That’s the strongest gain since 2004. While encouraging, that doesn’t mean shoppers have recovered from the loss of $11 trillion in household wealth. From the consumers’ perspective, the economy hasn’t improved dramatically from last year, as credit remains tight, unem-

where every child is a star.

ployment hasn’t budged below 9 percent, and home values are still depressed. Consumer confidence is hovering at the same level as a year ago and well below the point that signals a stable economy.

2011 MLK EVENTS Beyond the Dream... Now What?

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

Notable ● The government will wind down its largest and most complex rescue from the 2008 financial crisis, a $182 billion package to save insurer AIG, by selling stock over the next two years. The plan could net taxpayers billions in profits. American International Group Inc. paid its $21 billion outstanding balance to the New York branch of the Federal Reserve on Friday and converted preferred stock owned by the Treasury Department into more than 1.6 billion shares of common stock that can be sold on the open market. The common stock gives the government a 92 percent ownership stake. The Treasury Department is expected to start selling its shares in March.

Friday’s markets Dow Industrials +55.48, 11,787.38 Nasdaq +20.01, 2,755.30 S&P 500 +9.48, 1,293.24 30-Year Treasury +0.04, 4.53% Corn (Chicago) +6.25 cents, $6.49 Soybeans (Chicago) +6.5 cents, $14.23 Wheat (Kansas City) —8.5 cents, $8.60 Oil (New York) +14 cents, $91.54

Thawing credit expected to bolster auto sales in 2011 By Susan Tompor Detroit Free Press

D E T R O I T — All of Detroit knows all too well that car and truck sales for 2011 will stall if the U.S. economy stops accelerating. But auto sales depend heavily on the ability of consumers to borrow, too. Most people are not taking stacks of hundred-dollar bills — or writing checks for the full amount — when they buy a new car. So lots of deals didn’t get done when lenders put a vise grip on car loans during the depths of the recession. But after three years of sharp declines, forecasters see positive signs for the economy and credit. Jeff Schuster, executive director of forecasting at J.D. Power and Associates in Troy, Mich., said consumers who want to take out auto loans are likely to succeed in 2011, continuing a trend that took off slowly in the summer. Schuster said J.D. Power expects U.S. car and light truck sales to reach 12.8 million in 2011 — well below historical levels but well above 2009’s 10.4 million. Last year, Americans bought about 11.6 million vehicles.

For some younger buyers, the car market could be particularly inviting in 2011. Schuster noted that many consumers 18 to 35 had been shut out of the new car market during the recession because of their lack of credit history and lack of savings for a bigger down payment. For some younger buyers, the car market could be particularly inviting in 2011. Schuster noted that many consumers 18 to 35 had been shut out of the new car market during the recession because of their lack of credit history and lack of savings for a bigger down payment. Younger buyers accounted for 26.5 percent of new vehicle sales in 2006. But that number fell to 20.2 percent in 2009 — and since then has been increasing gradually. Now, he said, younger consumers could benefit significantly by more available credit — and that’s likely to help boost car sales in 2011.

The week before the shooting, she e-mailed a friend: “We need to figure out how to tone our rhetoric and partisanship down.” She had good reason to worry. In March, after she voted for Obama’s health-care bill, the glass on the front door of her Tucson office was shattered. During her re-election campaign last year, her opponent, Jesse Kelly — a Republican with tea-party backing who defeated a moderate Republican in the primary — appeared in a Web advertisement holding an assault weapon.

he said at a rally, “ ... if you dare to stand up to the government, they call us a mob. We’re about to show them what a mob looks like.” This kind of vitriol — the constant demonization of government with language that invites violence — has become the norm for some conservative pundits and candidates. Jared Lee Loughner, the accused Tucson shooter, appears to be deranged and has no known political affiliation. Yet, in troubled times, the mad and the unstable can find validation in the language of a Jesse Kelly and of other rhetorical bomb-throwers. Talk of “gangster government” (a term used by Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., the founder of the House Tea Party Caucus) is magnified many times over by repetition on chat shows and the Internet. FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III observed after the Tucson shooting: “The ubiquitous nature of the Internet means that not only threats, but hate speech and other inciteful speech, is much more readily available to individuals than ... it was eight or 10 or 15 years ago.” Such language can help provoke “lone wolves or lone offenders” into “undertaking attacks,” he said. Yet, unlike in Pakistan, the shooting of Giffords offers a chance for our pols and pundits to modify their language. It’s telling to note who has and hasn’t done this so far. Congressional Republicans, including Michele Bachmann, paid tribute to

Giffords. (But will Bachmann stop tossing vicious verbal grenades at opponents?) Rush Limbaugh, however, shrilled that “the left” was out to suppress debate. Newt Gingrich used the moment to accuse liberals of being weak on terrorists. And Sarah Palin, whose website had included a U.S. map with crosshairs on the districts of 20 Democratic candidates, including Giffords’, has not spoken publicly about the shooting. Instead, she posted an Internet video calling criticism of her rhetoric a “blood libel.” Unlike the mullahs of the right, Sen. John McCain unequivocally denounced the Tucson shooter, saying, “Whoever did this, whatever their reason, they are a disgrace to Arizona, this country, and the human race.” Nor did they grasp the message of Giffords’ astronaut brother-in-law, Scott Kelly, which was beamed down from the International Space Station. He decried the “unspeakable acts of violence and damage we can inflict upon one another, not just with our actions, but also with our irresponsible words.” Kelly added a phrase that should shame the pols and pundits for whom vitriol is an elixir: “We’re better than this.” We’re so different from Pakistan, with its sermons of hate, aren’t we? Aren’t we? — Trudy Rubin is a columnist and editorial board member for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

To the editor: The Public Forum letter titled “Be selective” requests being selective about cutting or not repealing the Affordable (Health) Care Act. Beware of benefits from a government that is here to help you. We do not deny a need for health care reform, just not a 2,000-page morass of a law that includes hiring a projected 16,000 IRS agents to enforce the law. We need enforcement agents for something so wonderful? This act is economically unsustainable. I know what the CBO says. But anyone can make a project work with 10 years of income and six years of expenditures. So debating “government speak economics” will not get us closer to justifying the current law. We can’t speak intelligently about the law because The Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) has yet to write the many provisions required because our elected officials passed the “buck”! Why has President Obama and HHS granted 222 organizations waivers from the law? (See: http://www.hhs. gov/ociio/regulations/approved_applications_for_waiver.html for a list of waivers granted through Dec. 7, 2010.) Why did HHS have to write a rule to grant exemptions if the law is so economical and has wonderful benefits? Government-run Medicare and Medicaid programs are going broke. Medicare has rising premiums, reduced payments to doctors and rising premiums for Medigap insurance. Medicaid is being eliminated for some. Don’t be seduced by promises the government has already proven they can’t sustain.

To the editor: The Philippines, Indonesia, Somalia, Sudan, Pakistan, Turkey, Nigeria and Egypt all have one thing in common. In the last 25 years, Christians have been killed by Muslims in those nations solely because they were Christians. Most Muslims respond to this fact by saying they personally were not involved or it is a different sect or that only the more violent Muslims do that or even that the persons perpetrating these acts are not really Muslims. Well, the killings are done in the name of Allah, no matter who is doing them and they are lauded in mosques as

appropriate. If Muslims really do not want to be labeled as violent murderers, they should not be complacent or just give lip service as has been the usual reaction. They need to show us and the rest of the world they really care by deposing every imam that teaches jihad against non-Muslims or if someone criticizes Muhammad. They should make sure that every mosque that supports these actions be closed. And they should expose every supposed or real Muslim who in any way is involved in these violent teachings and/or acts. Only then will I and many other Christians and probably non-Christians believe that Islam is not a violence-based religion. Hugh Wentz, Lawrence

Prime programs To the editor: Friday’s article about the possibility of eliminating some of the smaller degree programs at Kansas University did not mention an additional factor: Many of them attract top-notch students to KU. Physics for example has consistently had the highest average ACT score of any undergraduate major, and many of the others listed are very high. Just the sort of thing we need to eliminate! Adrian Melott, Lawrence

Only ‘suitable’? To the editor: While listening to Gov. Brownback’s State of the State address, I was struck by the use of the word “suitable” to describe the sort of education he envisions for the children of our state. “Suitable?” Is that all? I would hope the state of Kansas could do more for our children than provide them with an education that is merely adequate. He charges the Legislature with the task of defining what a “suitable” education is for our future Kansans. For legislators without children in the Kansas public schools, that definition will probably be based on a desire to cut the education budget. They may want to dismantle important programs and probably do away with arts education altogether. Sports, on the other hand, will likely continue to be well funded. Don’t all children in Kansas deserve quality, well-rounded educations? Brownback’s rhetoric implied that only those fortunate to send their children to private schools could hope for good quality educations. All other children in Kansas will be subject to an education system that is only suitable. Megan Helm, Lawrence

Proposed school budget criticized CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

West said. “Cutting state aid per pupil not only cuts jobs, it cuts into the heart of the community.” But Republicans rose to defend Brownback, a Republican who introduced his first state budget proposal on Thursday. House Speaker Mike O’Neal, R-Hutchinson, said the governor was showing leadership in tough economic times. The recent recession will cause state government to reset, and result in several more years of cuts, O’Neal said. “We are just going to have to bite the bullet,” he said. Brownback’s plan would reduce base state aid per pupil from $4,012 to $3,780 over the rest of the current school year and the next school year. That would be the lowest basestate-aid-per-student level since the 1999-2000 school year. Brownback said his proposals were necessary to balance the budget without a tax increase and to help bridge an estimated $550 million revenue shortfall. And his staff said total school funding would actually increase $129 million under his budget, but that figure includes funds to cover obligations for retirement, special education and debt payments on capital projects. School finance experts say the base state aid per pupil f igure shows true spending on students in the classroom. The proposed reduction in base state aid results from Brownback’s decision not to replace expiring federal stimulus funding that had helped prop up the education budget over the past two years. Davis and Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka said the cut would be actually deeper because failing to replace the federal funds carries into a third year, bringing the total reduction in base state aid per pupil to $362 — a 9 percent cut that would set the level at $3,650 per student, which would be the lowest since the 1996-97 school year. But O’Neal said there are areas in school finance that the state pays for that it probably shouldn’t. “I will submit that the education that our children should be mandated to have and the state pay for is something less than the sum total of all curriculum that is being offered right now,” he said. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

Zodiac revelation stuns horoscope readers By Jocelyn Noveck and Chris Willliams Associated Press Writers

Sofia Whitcombe began her day with the startling realization that she might not be exactly who she thought she was. “My whole life, I thought I was a Capricorn,” the 25year-old publicist said. “Now I’m a Sagittarius? I don’t feel like a Sagittarius!” It felt, she said, like a rug had been pulled from under her feet. “Will my personality change?” she mused. “Capricorns are diligent and regimented, and super-hardworking like me. Sagittarians are more laid back. This is all a little off-putting.” Countless people reacted on social networks Friday to the “news” that the stars have shifted alignment, astrologically speaking. No matter that the astronomy instructor who started it all in a weekend newspaper interview said it was an old story — very old; 2,000 years old, actually — and that astrologists were insisting it wouldn’t change a thing. The story had traveled around the blogosphere like, well, a shooting star. Some people seemed

PARKE KUNKLE, WHO TEACHES ASTRONOMY at Minneapolis Community and Technical College and called attention to the changing astrological signs, poses Friday for a photograph in his office in Minneapolis, Minn. angry. “I believe it’s a zodiac scam,” said Jose Arce, a 38year-old from Fort Lee, N.J., who runs a body shop. “I’ve known myself to be a Sagittarius, I believe, since I was born. So to come up now with some new sign? It’s unacceptable!” But others weren’t so ready to curse the stars. Kathy Tor-

pey always felt like she was “a Scorpio trapped in a Sagittarian body” — emotional and creative, she said, more than competitive and intellectual like Sagittarians. So on Friday, even though she pays little heed to horoscopes, Torpey said she was thrilled to discover that she may have always been a Scorpio, after all. “You have no idea what relief and joy I felt after hearing the wonderful news of the zodiac changes,” wrote the 43-year-old mother of two from Willow Grove, Pa., in an e-mail, tongue-in-cheek to be sure. “Up until now, I felt like my whole life has been a lie!” Astrologers across the country reported a wave of calls, emails or website hits from concerned clients. “People are more attached and loyal to their signs than they thought,” said Eric Francis, editor of PlanetWaves.net, who said he had had 25,000 hits on his site since midnight. “It’s interesting how many people are panicking their sign is wrong.” Astounded by all the kerfuffle was the man who started it, astronomy instructor Parke Kunkle. In an interview Sunday in the Star Tribune of Minneapo-

lis, Kunkle had explained that the Earth’s wobbly orbit means it’s no longer aligned to the stars in the same way as when the signs of the zodiac were first conceived, about 5,000 years ago. That means, Kunkle said, that when astrologers say the sun is in Pisces, it’s really in Aquarius, and so on. “Astronomers have known about this since about 130 B.C.,” Kunkle told The Associated Press Friday in his office at the Minneapolis Community and Technical College, his phone ringing constantly, as it had since the article came out. (One person had even demanded: “Give me my sign back.”) “This is not new news. Almost every astronomy class talks about it.” New news or old, most people had never heard it before. And one of the more fascinating elements of the story was talk of a new sign altogether. By the reckoning of Kunkle and other astronomers, astrologers are not only a month off in their zodiac signs, but they are neglecting a 13th constellation, Ophiuchus (Ooh-FEE-yew-kus) the Serpent Bearer, for those born from Nov. 30 to Dec. 17.

According to myth, Ophiuchus became a healer when he killed a snake and another appeared with an herb in his mouth that revived the dead one, said Amy Sayle, an astronomy educator at the Moorehead Planetarium at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Mary-Iris Taylor, a writer in St. Louis, had seen the story of Kunkle’s zodiac on TV, but on Friday, she read a link a friend had posted on Facebook and realized she was an Ophiuchus. And what, she wondered, did that mean? “I’d just like to know what I’m supposed to be like now,” she said. “As a Sagittarius, I was supposed to be the life of the party — at least, that’s what I wanted it to mean,” she laughed. “Now what?” According to many astrologists, she shouldn’t worry. Linda Zlotnick, an astrologer for 32 years in St. Paul, Minn., said she and fellow astrologers have long known of the issue raised by Kunkle, but that the most commonly used zodiac — tropical — isn’t affected by it. Zlotnick said the sidereal zodiac, which isn’t as widely used, IS based on the constellations.

Commission approves Wichita-area casino TOPEKA — Kansas regulators gave an Iowa company permission Friday to build a stateowned casino south of Wichita after concluding that misdemeanor charges against the firm and two top executives in their home state shouldn’t stop the project. The Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission approved background reports on Peninsula Gaming of Dubuque, Iowa, and seven of its officers, along with the company’s contract with the Kansas Lottery to build and run the casino. Peninsula expects to break ground on in Mulvane by April and open a temporary casino in February 2012. The state would claim at least 22 percent of the revenue — the percentage rises as revenues do — because under Kansas law, the lottery owns the rights to the new gambling and the gambling equipment. The state’s share is expected to be $35 million in the first full year the casino operates off the Kansas Turnpike, 18 miles south of Wichita.

KU to clash with Big Ten-bolting NU By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Still hope for Taylor on ‘D’ Something so startling happened Friday afternoon that I marked down the date, Jan. 14, 2011, and the time, 3:17 p.m. For the first time in 51 years, somebody changed my mind. That somebody was basketball buff Dr. Artie Shaw, a retired psychologist who lives on a 120-acre farm on the border of Leavenworth and Douglas counties. The topic of discussion: Kansas University junior guard Tyshawn Taylor’s defensive ability. Taylor’s one of the quickest college basketball players in the nation, longer than most point guards, and appears to have good stamina, three terrific components for any defender. Yet, I maintained, he’ll never become a consistently stellar defender because he’s not blessed with the ability to focus for long stretches of time, such as the entire shot clock, for example. You either have a brain that lends itself to sharp focus or you don’t, and there isn’t much you can do to change it. Not so fast, said the good doctor who moved in 1952 from Brooklyn, N.Y., to Lawrence to study for his master’s and doctorate degrees. Simply because he has two more degrees than I do doesn’t make him right and me wrong, I thought, and dug in for what I was sure would be another victory, of which there are many because I get to decide who wins. “That’s a learned skill, in my opinion,” Shaw said. “It’s easier for some than for others, but a lot of it is discovering what you have to concentrate on. Everyone uses the word focus now. I always used concentrate. It seems to me it’s something we can learn and we use it in things we care about and don’t use it in others.” Shaw is more than a basketball enthusiast. He said he has visited 379 national-park sites. “I have an interesting memory for things I care about, things in history and sports,” Shaw said. “If you ask me who acted in a given movie, I don’t remember until someone reminds me.” That’s when, without trying, he changed my mind, made me realize there is hope for Taylor developing into a consistent defensive stopper. Taylor cares about winning. What he needs to care about daily in practice is concentrating on doing the right things with his feet, his crouch, his hands and his determination to adhere religiously to the scouting report. He cares deeply about all those things and he’ll keep his man from getting past him. He does that and winning will take care of itself. “I really believe in his quickness, his anticipation and his toughness, in a lot of ways, that I thought he could be a lockdown defender for us, maybe as good a college guard defender as there was, and he hasn’t gotten to that point yet,” KU coach Bill Self said. “Hopefully, he will. He’s played really well at times and he’s been inconsistent at times, but I really think that that’s one area where inconsistency shouldn’t happen because you can control that night in and night out.” How can he control it? By making it a priority, one possession at a time, by taking great pride in his ability to prevent the other team from getting into its offense. When Taylor plays like that, the opposition gets pushed to its heels, begins to self-destruct and watches Kansas put on a show at the other end.

Nebraska’s men’s basketball team — which has made an appearance in Lawrence each and every winter since 1922 — today may be visiting Allen Fieldhouse for the final time. The Cornhuskers, who are 750 all-time in Kansas University’s tradition-rich building, are headed to the Big Ten Conference next season. “I hadn’t thought of that, to be honest,” KU coach Bill Self said on the eve of today’s 1 p.m. matchup between the Jayhawks

FREE STATE BOYS BASKETBALL 65, OLATHE NORTH 51

Up, up and away

Free State boys tested, but fly past O-North

By Ben Ward Journal-World Sports Writer

FREE STATE’S ERIC WATSON GOES UP FOR A BUCKET during the first half. The Firebirds defeated Olathe North, 6551, on Friday in Olathe.

OLATHE — Free State High boys basketball coach Chuck Law was far from satisfied with a doubledigit first half lead. Even as the Firebirds were looking dominant in the first half, Law continued to bark at them, demanding that they play harder, that they not relent. Law, who told his team in practice how great a second half team Olathe North has been this year, knew the Eagles would eventually catch fire and make a run. O-North indeed rallied, whittling a 17-point lead down to as close as three, but the Firebirds held on, regained their edge, and pulled away for a 65-51 victory on Friday night at Olathe North. “We talked about zero-zero at halftime, and that didn’t work very well,” Law said with a grin. “Maybe I’ll give a different speech next time around.” Aside from a four-minute stretch to begin the second half, the Firebirds — who forced 21 turnovers and only committed five — dictated the flow of the game with defensive pressure. “When we’re attentive and paying attention to detail, we’re really good,” Law said. “When we lose focus and we mess up our assignments and don’t communicate with one another, we break down and teams get opportunities to score like (they) did in the second half.” Junior Georgi Funtarov (21 points) and senior Eric Watson (17 points) led the Firebirds, who carried a 34-17 lead to the half mainly by irritating the Eagles with their trademark man-toman pressure. Watson and Funtarov each dunked in transition as FSHS continually looked to push the Please see FSHS, page 4B

OLATHE SOUTH 59, LHS BOYS 37

Lawrence High boys pummeled by O-South By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

OLATHE — Lawrence High senior Garrett Wagner went up for the Lions’ first shot of Friday’s game and was promptly rejected by Olathe South junior Tyler Thomas. And from there, with the Falcons up by 14 points just two minutes into the first quarter, the rout was on. In its own gymnasium, Olathe South cruised to a 59-37 victory over LHS. Kameron Lindsay led the Falcons with 22 points on a perfect night of shooting, going

8-for-8 from the field and 6-for-6 from the line. Lindsay was dominant, but it was the Falcons’ 1-2-2 press that really sealed the Lions’ fate. LHS coach Mike Lewis said his team expected the defense. They weren’t ready to handle it, however, turning the ball over 11 times in the first quarter. “The press really, really stirred us up. Really got us out of our comfort zone. Really just shattered our confidence as a team,” Lewis said. “It was almost like you got hit by a freight train.” To open the game, the Falcons forced four Lion turnovers in just

a minute and a half, converting on fast break layups to open up an early lead. By the end of the first quarter, the scoreboard above the Lions’ bench accurately depicted the type of game it had been. Olathe South 25, Lawrence High 4. Lewis was impressed with the Falcons starters, which included four talented seniors and Thomas, a 6-foot-7 junior. “Those guys were a well-oiled John Young/Journal-World Photo machine,” Lewis said. “We were OLATHE SOUTH’S KAMERON LINDSAY BEATS a 1987 squeaky Ford Escort.” Lawrence High’s Garrett Watner to a loose Please see LHS, page 4B ball.

Royals agree to terms with Francis, Gordon KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Without making any predictions, Jeff Francis says he can see parallels between the young Kansas City Royals of 2011 and the pennantwinning Colorado Rockies he pitched for in 2007. That’s one reason the 30-year-old left-hander agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Kansas City on Friday, a deal worth about $2 million.

“I think they’re on similar paths that Colorado was five or six years ago,” Francis said. “So, I’ve seen it happen and I know it can be done. It’s certainly an exciting time for an organization.” Also on Friday, the Royals settled on a $1.4 million, one-year deal with outfielder Alex Gordon, leaving first baseman Billy Butler and right-handed pitchers Kyle Davies

and Robinson Tejeda as the only arbitration-eligible players still unsigned. Earlier this week, righthander Luke Hochevar avoided arbitration when he agreed to a one-year deal for $1.76 million. Francis was 17-9 with the Rockies in 2007 when they won 21 of 22 games in a September run to the NL wild-card spot and advanced to the club’s first World Series. He

NFL PLAYOFFS

Baltimore, Pittsburgh meet again PITTSBURGH (AP) — Looks like another winter classic in Pittsburgh. Some NFL rivalries are manufactured. Some ebb and flow depending on the teams’ records. Then there’s Ravens vs. Steelers, one that is as real as it gets. The games usually are meaningful, with an intensity that isn’t faked and a physicality that caused Pittsburgh wide receiver Hines Ward to label it the Black and Blue Bowl. The eighth meeting in three seasons between AFC North rivals that are very much alike in makeup and personality will leave the winner one victory short of the Super Bowl. The survivor of today’s AFC divisional game meets the winner of Sunday’s Jets-Patriots game in the AFC championship game on Jan. 23. Yes, another big Ravens-Steelers game, only a month and 10 days since the last. Yet many in Baltimore and Pittsburgh couldn’t wait for it. “Both sides know when the whistle blows, you’re going to get what we got and we’re going to get what they got,” said Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis, whose renowned nastiness fits perfectly into a rivalry where emotions run high and scores run low. “So, once again — I love to use this — here we go again.”

Falcons to take on Packers ATLANTA — Bart Starr. Lambeau Field. Ray Nitschke. Heck, they even named the Super Bowl trophy after Green Bay’s most famous coach. Yep, the Packers are just oozing with tradition. The Atlanta Falcons? Not so much. But the Falcons (13-3) are the top seed in the NFC playoffs heading into tonight’s divisional game against Green Bay (11-6). Atlanta merely needs to win two more games to reach the Super Bowl for only the second time in franchise history. Both would be at the Georgia Dome, where the team is 20-4 over the last three seasons. Up first, Atlanta will have to get by a franchise with a much more impressive resume over the long haul. The Packers have won a record 12 NFL titles, compared to zero for the Falcons. Green Bay has 21 Hall of Famers. The Falcons have none.

The potential No. 1 overall pick announced his decision Friday at his old high school, saying he didn’t make up his mind until that morning after long talks with his coaches and his parents and a solitary drive around his hometown. The deciding factor? “I was thinking, ‘What more could I accomplish my senior year?”’ Fairley said.

Thome and the Twins agreed Friday to a $3 million, one-year contract, doubling his salary after he provided a big lift last season.

Guard Woolridge Kansas vs. Nebraska Jayhawks, Huskers to collide today still learning Probable Starters

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Phoenix native Royce Woolridge admits the winter of 2010-11 has provided a shock to his system. “Not too bad. I’ve got some new jackets and stuff, but it’s a little cold, definitely,” said the 6-foot-3, 182-pound freshman guard out of Sunnyslope High. “I’ve been learning a lot,” Woolridge added, not referring so much to the climate, but competing at the highmajor college level. “It’s been a great experience for me to be able to practice with all the players and learn from them. “The biggest challenge is defense and learning where to be defensively, but everybody on the team is helping me work on that,” added Woolridge, who has logged an average of 3.9 minutes a game in nine of KU’s 16 games. He’s scored nine points with nine assists against three turnovers. “Defense is probably the hardest part, to get it and understand it. Coach (Bill Self ) gets on everybody because he wants perfection when it comes to defense. That’s one thing he wants us to be perfect at.” A natural scorer who averaged 30.2 points per game last season, Woolridge has been working at both shooting guard and point guard on the scout team at practice. “I wanted to see if there’s other things I could do to help the team out. I feel if I worked on my point guard skills I’d have both aspects of my game and it’d help my game out,” Woolridge said. “I’ve learned so much already. I’ve learned I’m capable of doing things I didn’t think I was capable of doing because they (teammates) push me harder to work on my game more.” Woolridge, who is not part of the rotation, said he’s never second-guessed his decision to play and not red-shirt this season. “I knew I wanted to play a little bit this year and have a little bit of experience,” he said. “It wasn’t really like a decision thing. It was just something that happened. I’m just happy to be part of the team and be able to be around all these players and like an organization like this. That (playing time) is nothing that’s a problem at all with me. I’m just happy to be here.” Self had no problem with Woolridge electing to play this season. “I didn’t talk to him a lot about it. If we want to redshirt him moving forward we can red-shirt him moving forward,” Self said. “Royce has shown some flashes of doing some good things. He’s behind in some areas. He’s also behind some guys we

Releford update: KU sophomore Travis Releford, who sprained his left ankle in the first half of Sunday's Michigan game, is doubtful for today’s 1 p.m. game against Nebraska. “It’s a little disappointing, because I thought he would be back by now. We all did, and he's worked hard getting treatment, but it still may be a couple more days,” Self said. Self said it was not a highankle sprain. “Just a sprain. Pretty severe one, though,” Self said. ●

Superman not needed: Coach Doc Sadler’s Nebraska team led KU by four points with 13 minutes left in last year’s 75-64 loss in Allen. The Huskers went 2-14 in league a year ago; KU 15-1. “As I told the team, I think this is the first year since I’ve been here that every time we go on the court, we should have the mind-set that we don’t have to play like Superman to win,” Sadler told the Journal-Star. “We had our opportunities (Wednesday in 77-69 loss at Missouri) but we did not get it done. I know the players are disappointed. I’m disappointed, but it's over.” ●

ranked seventh in field goal percentage defense (37.3) and 24th in scoring defense (60.9 ppg). “When other teams don’t score, you are always in the game,” Self said. “I learned that from coach (Eddie) Sutton (as assistant at Oklahoma State) and Doc learned that from coach Sutton (at Arkansas). Especially away from home ... take care of the ball and don’t give up easy baskets gives you a chance. That’s been a good formula for them.” The Huskers, who opened the Big 12 season with a 63-62 home victory over Iowa State, had a 10-game winning streak snapped, 77-69, Wednesday at Missouri. “They don’t let you get the ball down low as much. They sag on the big fellas,” said KU junior Marcus Morris, who scored 20 points off 9-of-15 shooting with 11 rebounds in Lawrence last year after scoring 19 points off 7-of-8 shooting with seven boards in an 84-72 KU victory in Lincoln. “Seeing K-State lose twice, once at home, definitely is a wake-up call,” Morris noted. “The Big 12 is serious. Anybody can lose. I feel we have a target on our chest because we are (six-time) defending (league) champions.” Morris erupted for a career-high 33 points in KU’s 84-79 Big 12 opening victory

over Iowa State on Wednesday in Ames. NU counters with double-digit scorers in Jorge Brian Diaz (10.4 ppg) and Lance Jeter (10.0). “There’s definitely a sense of urgency,” Morris said. “Margin (of victory) doesn’t matter. Conference is conference. You don’t want to lose in conference because of how important it is. “I’d rather have lost all those (15 nonconference) games if it means we win every conference game,” Morris added “When you really want to buckle down and play to every detail ... it’s in conference.” In the nonconference campaign, Nebraska lost to Vanderbilt and Davidson, claiming a marquee victory over Southern California. “I can’t wait,” KU freshman guard Josh Selby said of his first meeting versus NU. “I know it’s going to be crackin’ tomorrow (in fieldhouse) because it’s our first home Big 12 game. I will be a little nervous, but I can’t wait to play the game. “It has been a wake-up call because Duke lost to Florida State. That shocked me,” Selby added. “Anything is possible in this basketball game.” The Jayhawks hold a 68game homecourt win streak. “It’s important to us and the fans. We just want to keep it (streak) so they can stay happy. The more happy they are, the more they’ll make us better,” Selby said.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Beaty officially re-joins KU as assistant By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The man who once came to Kansas University to replace an outgoing wide-receivers coach has done it again. KU football officials conf irmed Friday that David Beaty, KU’s wide receivers coach from 2008-09, will rejoin the Jayhawks in 2011. Beaty will coach KU’s receivers and hold the title of co-offensive coordinator. “David has a great energy and a fantastic football mind,” KU coach Turner Gill said. “We are excited to have coach Beaty and his family back with the Jayhawk football program.” Beaty’s return to Kansas continues a cycle between two schools over the past five

years. Before coming to KU to replace Tim Beck in 2008, Beaty was the receivers coach at Rice. Last year, Beaty was Rice’s offensive coordinator. Beaty, 40, comes to KU to replace Darrell Wyatt, who left Gill’s staff after one season to take a similar job at Texas. Though Beaty many in the program were sad to see Wyatt go, Gill said bringing Beaty in to replace him was huge, particularly for recruiting. “He has an excellent reputation in the state of Texas as a coach and recruiter, accord-

ing to the high school coach- High, is a three-star prospect and was one of Wyatt’s top es there,” Gill said. recruits.

of their team, it should come as no surprise that Jackie Garcia and the Free State High girls basketball team take defense pretty seriously. Especially in practice, where Garcia and fellow captains Lynn Robinson and Paige Rothwell have made sure to push their teammates to keep the intensity high. Behind their now-customary stifling defense, Free State rolled to a victory at Olathe North on Friday night. The Firebirds began the first quarter with a 24-9 bar-

rage and, aside from a sluggish second quarter, never looked back. “You certainly don’t put the game away in the first quarter but I think we set the tone,” coach Bryan Duncan said. FSHS, led by 13 points, six assists and five rebounds from Kennedy Kirkpatrick and 12 points from Robinson, shot only 29.8-percent for the game but controlled throughout thanks to a sound defensive effort. The Firebirds (4-3) harassed the Eagles into 30 turnovers.

KU’s Finley sets record in shot-put J-W Staff Reports

Sophomore thrower Mason Finley had a record-setting day as he scored 10 points in leading Kansas University’s track and field team to a 190171 victory over Missouri on Friday at Anschutz Pavilion. Finley threw the shot-put 20.71 meters (67-11.50 feet), a KU school record. Finley’s 20.71-meter toss ranks as the top mark in the NCAA and the world in 2011. It serves as an ‘A’ Standard qualifying mark for the 2011 World Championships and the 2012 Olympic Games. “One of my goals is to be in the record book,” Finley said. “However, I never thought it would come this early in my career. It is a great accomplishment and I am pumped to have it happen (Friday) at the dual meet with Mizzou ... I also helped my team get a win over our rivals.”

LHS boys upended by Olathe South, 59-37 LHS seemed sped up by it, rushing the ball past the halfcourt line only to make silly passes against the 1-2-2 zone. But after the quarter, the Lions (3-6) didn’t call it a night. The Falcons pulled out of the press and the Lions won the second quarter and lost by

just two after halftime. Junior KJ Pritchard led the way with 11 points. Lewis liked that his team competed until the end, but the first quarter created a hole that even the three-point shooting Lions couldn’t hope to make up.

“They were a solid defensive team on a mission, and we got back on our heels and got knocked on our butts,” Lewis said. “And everybody was there to see it. There’s no hiding that one.” ● Box score on page 5B

LANSING — It only took one unproductive quarter Friday night to send the Tonganoxie High girls basketball team home with its fourth straight loss. For the Chieftains, a listless third quarter at Lansing led to a 40-31 Lions victory. LHS (4-3 overall, 4-0 Kaw Valley League) opened the second half with a 9-0 run as Tonganoxie failed to score a single point until the final two minutes of the third quarter. THS senior Danielle Miller finally broke the drought with 1:34 to go in the third, when she put in an easy inside basket on an assist from fellow forward Tavia Brown. With f ive missed f ield goals, five turnovers and two misfires at the free-throw line in the third, Tonganoxie (2-5, 1-4) squandered its two-point halftime advantage. THS plays at 6 p.m. on Tuesday against De Soto in the f irst round of the Tonganoxie Invitational.

How important a factor is religious education in deepness of faith? ————

Religious education creates a sense of belonging Robert Minor, professor emeritus in Kansas University’s religious studies department, 1300 Oread Ave: It’s difficult to measure “depth of faith.” We’re stuck with selfreporting, and, as one pollster remarked: the questions most misreported by respondents are “likeli- Minor hood to vote” and “regularity of attendance at a religious service.” Claims about the relationship between religious education and belief are anecdotal and rarely without selfinterest in the results. However, a Pew Research Center poll released last September revealed how little Americans know about religions including their own.

It found that atheists and agnostics know the most. Mormons ranked highest on questions dealing with the Bible and Christianity, and Jews on questions dealing with world religions. One would expect that a religion’s education would mean a better knowledge of one’s own faith, but years of university teaching convinced me that it only results in limited knowledge of elements of a believer’s religion — those the teaching institution prefers to emphasize, with many seemingly important teachings surprisingly missing. There’s also plenty of survey evidence that younger Americans are leaving their religions more than ever, but that doesn’t mean they don’t consider themselves religious. There is growth in Americans identifying themselves as atheists, agnostics, pagans and spiritual but not religious.

But conveying of factual knowledge might not be the most influential result of children receiving an education in parochial schools, catechisms, and once-a-week Sunday school–type programs. Likewise, internalizing orthodox beliefs or knowledge of a religion’s scriptures in depth, seem not to be the key to the futures even of those who will attend their institutions till death. It’s the non-intellectual elements of religious education that appear to have the most long-lasting effect. Religious education reinforces in those who receive it a belonging, a community, a larger identity, and an outlet for charity so they are comfortably familiar and less emotionally threatening than independently questioning them and creating alternatives.

Beyond books, other people, experiences deepen faith The Rev. Tom Brady, senior pastor, First United Methodist Church, 946 Vt. and 867 Highway 40: I think religious education is a huge factor in shaping the depth of our faith. Education is much more than the passing of knowledge from one person to another. More importantly, education is a Brady way of passing on insights, values and experiences. My response to this question comes from the bias of my own personal experience. Most religious education begins at home with parents and family. My parents shaped the depth of my faith by having morning devotions

after breakfast. As a family, we would read Scripture and a devotional thought written by someone else. We would talk about it and then close in prayer. This daily discipline was an opportunity for them to teach me about having faith in God and to share past experiences related to their faith. This education at home was supplemented with further education in the church. Through worship, Sunday school classes, confirmation class and youth group gatherings, I was blessed with a wide variety of teachers and mentors who helped shape my faith. Again, I was able to learn from their experiences, their values and their life insights. I don’t believe that faith is acquired through books alone (or formal education alone) but that it comes through other people. Another important part of

my religious education came while spending four years in seminary. Not only did I learn about vital aspects of faith in the classroom, but I was given opportunities to put my faith into practice. It was the application of what I was learning in different ministry settings: prisons, hospitals, nursing homes, psychiatric hospitals and local churches that deepened my faith greatly. Again, it was the people. Faith in God was how many of these people coped with the tremendous life challenges they faced. The hope and peace that they found through their faith contributed to the richness and depth of my own faith. I count all these people and all these experiences as a part of my religious education.

Daughter, 24, has to make own choices Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

have suggested she bathe twice a week, telling her it will make her feel good, but it doesn’t help. The last time she was in our family room, our daughter asked if the baby had a messy diaper. I know she reads your column, so maybe if she sees it in black and white, she will do better. — Tired of Being Around the Funk

Dear Tired: When was the last time Mom had a complete physical and an evaluation? It going to make decisions that is not unusual for people her you will like. But you must age to lose some sense of allow her to make her own choices, even when you disagree, and even when there are unpleasant consequences — such as your husband’s refusal to welcome her home. But also understand that your family’s extreme censure may convince Martina to stay with this man out of sheer stubbornness. Keep meeting with her elsewhere so you can see how she’s doing. She needs to know her family still loves and cares about her. anniesmailbox@creators.com

Much like General Motors and other proud institutions, “The Miss America Pageant” (8 p.m., ABC) has looked extinction in the eye and survived — for now. The pageant returns to ABC for the first time in five years after wandering in the desert of basic cable (CMT and TLC) with various elements of “reality” gimmickry added in an attempt to goose ratings. Long associated with Atlantic City, N.J., the pageant moved to Las Vegas, Nev., in 2006, a change that some think has added to the notion that Miss America has lost her soul as well as her old address. But I’m from New Jersey and therefore biased. Once a ratings powerhouse, Miss America has faltered while glitzier competition like Donald Trump’s Miss USA and Miss Universe have grown. Many people contend that the pageant has never adjusted well to the post-feminist era and that a “beauty contest” is silly and irrelevant at a time when there are women on the Supreme Court and serious contenders for the presidency. But that argument hardly holds water when you think of the lingering popularity of the debauched Cinderella fantasies peddled on shows like “The Bachelor.” It’s fitting that Miss America returns to ABC, home to that exercise in romantic delusion. Now, if they can get it back to the Jersey Shore, where it belongs ... ● The market for Miss America may be iffy, but the ratings for NFL football only grow. Last week’s Saturday-night game between the Jets and Colts attracted around 30 million viewers, an “American Idol”-sized number. Fox certainly hopes for similar results when Green Bay and Atlanta (7 p.m., Fox) meet. ● “Great” is not a word I use all that often. But “great” is exactly how I described “Carlos” (7 p.m., Sundance), the three-part miniseries repeating on Sundance tonight and next Saturday. Edgar Ramirez (“The Bourne Ultimatum”) stars in the title role as the world’s most hunted terrorist responsible for bombings, kidnapping and murder on several continents. A French-American co-production, “Carlos” was filmed in Austria, France, Germany, Hungary, Lebanon and Morocco. The movie’s subtitled dialogue also switches frequently from English to French, Spanish and Arabic. It’s a smart, demanding and rewarding series for a discerning viewer.

Today’s other highlights ● The four-pawed set excels at the Incredible Dog Challenge National Finals (2:30 p.m., NBC). ● The Ravens and Steelers tangle in the AFC Divisional Playoff Game (3:30 p.m., CBS). ● Deadly tree creatures on “Primeval” (8 p.m., BBC America). ● Ed Quinn stars in the 2011 shocker “Behemoth” (8 p.m., SyFy). ● Scheduled on “48 Hours Mystery” (9 p.m., CBS): a man’s deception and a woman’s disappearance. ● Keanu Reeves, Emilia Fox, Marcus Brigstocke and Imelda May appear on “The Graham Norton Show” (9 p.m., BBC America). ● Gwyneth Paltrow hosts “Saturday Night Live” (10:30 p.m., NBC), featuring musical guest Cee Lo Green.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Saturday, Jan. 15: This year, you move in a new direction because you feel more innovative. You also will want to spend more money on yourself, and you probably need to. Don't avoid the doctor or certain necessities that make you feel better. If you are single, you meet people when you least anticipate it. If you are attached, the two of you could see a lifetime goal realized this year. Gemini offers different talents but can work well with you. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★★ Finally, you experience a day without obligations. Why not go out? Visit with a neighbor or a missed friend. You find out how sorely missed you were, too. Tonight: Dinner and visiting with friends. Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★ You might notice that you are tired and on a slow downhill slump. You do for everyone else, why not do for you? Schedule a massage, take a snooze or just become a couch potato. Tonight: Continue the take-care-of-me theme.

smell, and we suspect Mom does not realize there is an odor. She also may fear slipping in the bathtub, so be sure yours has grab bars and nonslip mats. If she is not seeing a geriatrician, make an appointment for her, and alert the doctor to check for these problems.

Dear Annie: My 78-yearold mother-in-law has terrible hygiene and smells awful. She comes to our house, sometimes for weeks at a time, and will not take a bath or a shower.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★ Step back out of the limelight for a while. Much-needed personal time might be necessary. A partner could be extremely difficult and touchy. Tonight: Not to be found. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★★ You are like coffee percolating. You have lots of energy, but your direction might be unclear. Make plans to join friends for racquetball or some other favorite pastime. Tonight: You are the party. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★ Check in with an older friend or relative. You can be sure someone needs an extra push. You are more in tune with the possibilities, especially as you have an excess of energy. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★★ Reach out for a loved one at a distance. You could be tired and exhausted, more than you are aware. Tonight: Let your mind roam. Go for something different.

Dear Annie: I am 55, married for 29 years, and the mother of three children. The problem is our middle child, “Martina,” who is living with a 50-year-old divorced father of two. One of his children is married with kids, so our 24year-old daughter is living with a grandfather. Martina lied to us for eight months, and when we found out about the relationship, we were furious and threw her out. The fight was nasty and physical, and the police were involved. Now my husband wants nothing to do with Martina, and our oldest daughter won’t speak to her sister. Our son doesn’t approve of Martina but hasn’t cut her off. I have seen Martina a few times since our fight. I have told her that I love her but will never accept the relationship. Martina wants to come to our house for a visit. My husband says if she comes home, he will leave. But, Annie, I miss her terribly and don’t want to choose between my husband and my child. When I was young, my parents divorced, and I had to choose which one to invite for birthdays and holidays. It was awful. What can I do? — Torn Mom
