Mike O’Neal on Friday said he was banning a union official from the House gallery over a dispute stemming from last week’s protests. O’Neal, R-Hutchinson, said Bruce Tunnell, executive vice

president of the Kansas AFLCIO, encouraged workers to be disruptive while the House voted on an anti-union bill. And, O’Neal said, Tunnell removed his lobbyist identification badge during the protest.

“That is not appropriate,” O’Neal said, adding that Tunnell would be prohibited from the public viewing gallery for the rest of the legislative session. Tunnell denied he removed his ID badge or did anything inappro-

Douglas County District Judge Peggy Kittel on Friday sentenced a Lawrence man to serve a prison term of 50 years to life for raping and sexually molesting two girls. “It was certain in this case that the defendant had a fiduciary relationship with these children,” Kittel said before sentencing Donald L.

The Topeka girls, who now are 9 and 11, would frequently stay at Brown’s northern Lawrence home in between school and church activities. “The request is that Donald Brown never get out of prison,” said Chief Assistant District Attorney Amy McGowan, who prosecuted the case. Kittel granted McGowan’s request to have Brown serve two life sentences back to back. On each sentence, Brown will not be eligible for parole until after serving 25 years. McGowan had asked for one life sentence for each victim in the case. In December, Kittel sentenced Brown’s wife, Natasha M. Brown, 34,

Original basketball rules on display at museum By Bill Draper Associated Press Writer

KANSAS CITY, MO. — An unabashedly fanatical Kansas University basketball fan helped unveil the game’s original rules Friday on Missouri soil, but James Naismith’s creation will be in Kansas City less than three months before heading to its permanent home in Lawrence, Kan., in June. David Booth and his wife, Suzanne, purchased Naismith’s “Original Rules of Basket Ball” in December for $4.3 million in a Sotheby’s auction with the intent of eventually putting them on permanent display on the Kansas campus. But f irst, they’re on display through May 29 at Kansas City’s Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, where the nearly 120-year-old document is more than two centuries younger than the eight huge Jan Leyniers tapestries that adorn the giant hall’s walls. They were officially unveiled Friday afternoon in a ceremony attended by Booth family members, members of the Kansas athletics staff and the media.

Museum director Julian Zugazagoitia said having the rules displayed at Nelson-Atkins will bring a whole new audience to the facility to see not only the basketball documents but the works of art spread throughout the museum. Zugazagoitia, who has been director of the museum for six months, said he has been fascinated by Kansas City’s love of all sports — especially basketball. “Here you have a game that was invented, the man lived to see it go to the Olympics, which was also an amazing feat, and what a better thing than someone that is also so close to home,” he said. Naismith penned the 13 rules on Dec. 21, 1891, for the YMCA training school in Springfield. His boss had given him two weeks to come up with a new indoor activity for his gym class, and he wrote down the rules on the eve of that deadline. He gave the list to his secretary, who typed them up on two pages that Naismith pinned on a bulletin board Please see RULES, page 4A

Lawmakers say inquiries into KBA could jeopardize NBAF By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Democratic and Republican leaders said Friday that state Sen. Susan Wagle’s inquiries into the f inancial dealings of the Kansas Bioscience Authority could jeopardize efforts to get the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility built in Kansas. Wagle, R-Wichita, said the criticism was off-base. Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka said, “I think that Sen. Wagle is playing a dangerous game of high-stakes poker.” Anything negative related to the KBA, an organization that helped Kansas win NBAF, could affect congressional funding of the project, Hensley said. Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, agreed. “It’s not helpful,” Morris said.

things were being handled and the unethical actions of Tom Thornton and the waste of taxpayer money.” In her letter to the committee, Lynch said that while at the KBA she paid Thornton’s personal bills, picked up his children’s nanny and negotiated and purchased a Toyota Camry for his personal use. The letter also included details of Thornton’s $1 million life insurance policy for which the board agreed to pay premiums. Thornton said Lynch, who wasn’t at Friday’s meeting, was terminated for cause. He also said those bills were paid from his personal bank account and that his contract, which included the life insurance policy, was approved by the board. Thornton’s salary is at $265,000 a year. He received a $100,000 bonus last year, and another $43,000 is spent on

change the structure of the KBA’s governing board. But Senate Majority Leader Jay Scott Emler, R-Lindsborg, said the Senate hasn’t debated that bill because it would make it appear that Kansas officials are not unified on NBAF. “We don’t need any negative publicity,” he said. Gov. Sam Brownback and state legislative leaders were in Washington, D.C., earlier this week to lobby for NBAF funding. Morris said he felt confident that Congress would come through with the funding, but added that Kansas officials must continue to work with Congress on the issue. House Speaker Mike O’Neal, R-Hutchinson, who also went on the trip to Washington, said he believed the federal funding “appears to be on track.”

insurance and retirement benefits. KBA board chairman and former Kansas Gov. John Carlin defended Thornton, saying he came with the experience of having worked for a former U.S. speaker of the House and an Illinois technology development organization. Carlin credited Thornton for the state landing the National Bio and AgroDefense Facility. “He understood instantly how to put a plan together to make that possible. I don’t think we had anyone else,” Carlin said. “We don’t have too many that have the experience he had.” Sen. Ty Masterson, RAndover, said he was bothered by how the KBA traveled, including nights at the Ritz-Carlton and limousine service. He asked Carlin if he signed off on that spending. “We approve of that level if it is appropriate for what is being done,” Carlin responded. “We deal with folks who travel in those circles and, consequently, from time to

time, yes, we have to do something that a lot of us Kansans, including myself, would say that is a little beyond what is necessary.” After the meeting, Carlin said those costs were associated with a trip to Washington, D.C. The KBA chose the hotel because a meeting was being held there. The limo service was used to transport a large group of people and was cheaper than paying for multiple cab rides. Much of Friday’s hearing was spent with the KBA defending the need to spend more than $2 million to employ a staff of 21. More than half of the staff makes more than $100,000, and last year $206,500 was handed out in employee bonuses. “We have to pay the salaries to attract the talent and to retain the talent to get the job done,” Carlin said. Next Friday, the Commerce Committee will discuss a forensic audit of the KBA.

I have prayed for guidance on what I can do to atone for my sins.” Brown said he accepted responsibility for his actions and that he would try to help other inmates while in prison. “I promise to do what I can to help prevent these types of crimes in the future,” he said. McGowan said Brown had essentially used the older girl as his sexual partner and “groomed” her by giving her gifts in exchange for sex acts. “A true pedophile is someone who has, as their sexual ideal, a small child and most generally a girl, and that’s what you have here,” McGowan said. Kittel said she could recall only one other case in her legal career when someone was having ongoing intercourse with a young girl. “This was not a one-time offense but ongoing sexual abuse of two little girls,” the judge said. Kittel also said that if Brown ever is granted parole he must register as a sex offender and be subject to electronic monitoring for the remainder of his life.

When the bill came up for a final vote in the House, several union members in the gallery shouted “vote no.” At that point, about 50 union members were kicked out of the gallery.

State legislative leaders said that because Congress is intent on cutting federal spending, Kansas officials need to stand unified to protect NBAF funding. President Barack Obama has recommended $150 million in his budget proposal for the facility this year. Wagle, chairwoman of the Senate Commerce Committee, has held hearings into salaries and spending at KBA. She also wants an audit done of the agency. Wagle said her goal is to help NBAF. “I’m making sure NBAF is a success by making sure the Bioscience Authority is accountable for its actions and expenditures,” she said. “It looks worse if we do nothing. Everyone wants the Bioscience Authority to be successful, but to not check into allegations would be irresponsible.” The Commerce Committee has produced a bill that would

Tucson suspect charged with murders Federal prosecutors on Friday announced new charges against the suspect in the attempted assassination of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, accusing him of killing six people and wounding 13 others who were exercising the fundamental American “right to meet freely, openly and peaceably with their member of Congress.” U.S. Attorney Dennis Burke called the 49-count indictment returned Thursday against Jared Lee Loughner “comprehensive and is solid, and covers all the murdered and injured victims” who were at the political event held by Giffords outside a Tucson grocery store. “There are no distinctions at all between the victims,” Burke said, adding that they “were exercising one of the most precious and fundamental rights of American citizens.” 2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

House wants defense of gay marriage ban House Speaker John Boehner said Friday the House may go to court to defend the federal law against gay marriage, which President Barack Obama’s administration has concluded is unconstitutional. Boehner said he would convene a group of bipartisan congressional leaders that has the authority to instruct the House counsel to represent the chamber in court. The panel would include Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va.; Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.; Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi DCalif., and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md. “The constitutionality of this law should be determined by the courts — not by the president unilaterally,” the Ohio Republican said in a statement. “This action by the House will ensure the matter is addressed in a manner consistent with our Constitution.” The Obama administration last month announced it would no longer defend the constitutionality of the federal law that bans recognition of gay marriage. 2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

Research satellite plunges into sea For the second time in two years, a rocket glitch sent a NASA global warming satellite to the bottom of the sea Friday, a $424 million debacle that couldn’t have come at a worse time for the space agency and its efforts to understand climate change. Years of belt-tightening have left NASA’s Earthwatching system in sorry shape, according to many scientists. And any money for new environmental satellites will have to survive budget-cutting, global warming politics and, now, doubts on Capitol Hill about the space agency’s competence. The Taurus XL rocket carrying NASA’s Glory satellite lifted from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California and plummeted to the southern Pacific several minutes later. The same thing happened to another climate-monitoring probe in 2009 with the same type of rocket, and engineers thought they had fixed the problem. “It’s more than embarrassing,” said Syracuse University public policy professor Henry Lambright. “Something was missed in the first investigation and the work that went on afterward.” 3 | ATLANTA

Big drop in kids’ ear infections Ear infections, a scourge that has left countless tots screaming through the night, have fallen dramatically, and some researchers suggest a decline in smoking by parents might be part of the reason. Health officials report nearly a 30 percent drop over 15 years in young children’s doctor visits for ear infections. That’s half a million fewer trips to the pediatrician each year, on average. Why the numbers are declining is a bit of a mystery, but Harvard researchers think it’s partly because fewer people smoke, meaning less irritation of children’s airways. Many doctors credit growing use of a vaccine against bacteria that cause ear infections. And some think increased breast-feeding is protecting more children. 4 | BOSTON

Harvard president welcomes ROTC Harvard University officially welcomed the ROTC back to the nation’s oldest college Friday as other elite campuses considered whether to lift their decades-old bans now that Congress has voted to allow gays to serve openly in the military. Harvard President Drew Gilpin Faust and Navy Secretary Ray Mabus signed an agreement that establishes the Naval ROTC’s formal presence on campus for the first time since the Vietnam War era. Other schools, including Columbia, Yale and Brown, are discussing whether to follow suit.

Steve Nowak’s new “office” is a 126-year-old former bank with stained-glass windows, intricately carved wooden window sills and brass door hinges. As the new director of the Douglas County Historical Society, Nowak is tasked with encouraging others to visit that office, the Watkins Community Museum of History, and the artifacts it holds. Monday was the first day on the job for Nowak, who came to Lawrence from Ohio with more than 22 years of experience at the Toledo Museum of Art. Dale Slusser, president of the Douglas County Historical Society Board, said the board was looking for someone who could provide programming, increase educational outreach efforts and curate exhibits. Nowak had all of those skills, and Slusser hopes they will breathe new life into the museum. “What we really need at this moment in history of the historical society is a leader with confidence who can lead us through some pretty dramatic transformations,” Slusser said. During the past decade, the museum has struggled with declining membership and funding. Since 2008 the historical society and museum have been without a full-time leader. At that time, museum director Rebecca Phipps was dismissed as the board attempted to reorganize the nonprofit.

A downtown Lawrence restaurant has changed its menu and its ownership. Consequently, Teller’s, 746 Mass., is on a much firmer financial foundation, according to its new owner. “We are back on track now,” said general manager Tom Wilson, who recently formed a group to buy the restaurant. “When I got here, the restaurant was trending down about 30 percent, and now we’re up 12 percent. We’ve almost had a 45 percent swing.” Wilson joined Teller’s as its general manager last year, and brought in a new chef from the Denver area. “Our menu previously was 80 percent Italian,” Wilson said. “Now it is about 15 percent Italian.” The restaurant has adopted a “World Cuisine” philosophy that has several ethnic dishes along with some American favorites. More menu changes are on the way. Wilson said new twists to the menu will be introduced on Monday, including the addition of lobster. Wilson has had a 20-year management career in the restaurant industry, largely with the chain that owns Macaroni Grill. But Wilson said he’s committed to keeping Teller’s an independent operation. “My goal has just been to stabilize it with a little corporate knowledge in a noncorporate environment,” Wilson said. — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362.

Susan Wagle, chairwoman of the Senate Commerce Committee, and her fellow committee members for taking a hard look at the manner in which the Kansas Bioscience Authority has used public dollars to compensate its employees. Friday morning, the committee held the second of three meetings to investigate whether the KBA, particularly KBA CEO Tom Thornton and president John Carlin, have compensated KBA employees in a wise and prudent manner. Thornton’s salary of $265,000, plus a bonus last year of $100,000, as well as the salaries and bonuses paid to 12 of the KBA’s 21 staff members, have caught the attention of Wagle and other state legislators. These 12 staff members had 2010 salaries that started with one at $100,000, and ranged up to $175,000. These people also received bonuses totaling more than $100,000. These salaries and bonuses have been called “lavish” by Wagle and other state legislators. Sen. Chris Steineger, R-

This is not a good reputation for the individual charged with leading the state’s efforts to attract new bioscience business and create jobs. And yet, at Friday’s meeting in Topeka, he was defended by Carlin. The former governor, along with a number of KBA cronies and Thornton supporters, were present to support Thornton’s actions. Carlin said he approved of Thornton’s spending habits. Wichita leaders have made it clear they are angry at the manner in which KBA dollars have been allocated, with Kansas University and Kansas State University receiving the large majority of funds and Wichita getting the short end of the allocation stick. Several years ago, when Ford Motor Co. President and CEO Alan Mulally was in Lawrence for a chamber of commerce presentation, he said Wichita could be, and should be, the world’s center for the study and use of composite materials. At that time, he said the next generation of airplanes, as well as a growing number of other products, will be built with composites. Please see COLUMN, page 4A

With Nowak, Slusser said the historical society hopes to focus on creating programming and changing exhibitions at the museum. “The cornerstone is educational — and to do that you have to get people into the building,” Slusser said.

Wichita leaders have asked for increased funding for research and development in these fields but claim they have been denied or refused adequate and justified support from the KBA. The KBA is a great concept, and it can help bring about a tremendous good for the state and its residents. Given this opportunity, and given the millions of dollars it has authority to spend, it deserves the best possible leadership and vision. It also should be remembered that individuals who are spending other people’s money should be more careful in allocating these funds than they would be in spending their own money. The KBA has built an office building for themselves at the Olathe-Kansas State business

park. Asked about the building, an Olathe off icial described it as a costly and beautiful shrine to Thornton. Some, such as Carlin and others, say the salary paid to Thornton is justified because of the highly competitive environment among states trying to attract bioscience business, industry and jobs. That’s an understandable argument, but high salaries, or even higher salaries, would be justified only if and when the individuals holding the jobs are performing in an exceptional manner and have the respect of those with whom they work. In any business, you usually get what you pay for. Thornton and Carlin talk about helping to create 1,233 jobs through Jan. 31. It’s not clear what their timetable is for this 1,233 number, but in the first couple of years of the KBA, with different leadership, a substantially smaller staff and far fewer financial handouts, the authority

“You look at things and learn to read them in such a way that tells you what was important and what (people’s) aspirations were, what they believed and what life was like 100 years ago,” Nowak said. One area where Nowak has some catching up to do is uncovering Lawrence’s rich history. The St. Louis native already has been given a long list of reading recommendations. And he has quickly learned that Lawrence residents take the city’s early days seriously. “What has surprised me the most is the real interest and passion people have for Civil War and early territorial history,” he said.

BRIEFLY Crime on campus dropped in 2010

Kansas University Public Safety officers said reported crimes on KU’s Lawrence campus dropped in 2010 from 2009, while officers made more arrests for alcohol and drug violations in a partnership with other agencies. As his office released its annual report Friday, public safety Chief Ralph Oliver said fewer incidents of assault, theft and robbery accounted for the majority of the decrease. In 2009, 706 crimes were reported on campus compared with 692 in 2010. Both were down from the 956 crimes reported in 2000. — Reporter Christine Metz can be reached Robberies on campus at 832-6352. dropped from eight in 2009 to zero in 2010. “The department took a very proactive stance in 2010, placbrought in new companies ing uniformed and plainclothes that now provide between 3,500 and 4,000 jobs.

officers in the areas where the robberies had occurred in 2009,” Oliver said in a statement. KANSAS UNIVERSITY “Being able to have a greater presence in those areas really made a difference.” Three students were robbed in connection with one March 2009 incident at McCollum Hall, and in April 2009 another student reported being robbed in the parking lot of the same residence hall, according to news reports.

the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin. Booth, a Kansas graduate who now is a Texas businessman and major university donor, said he attended high school in Lawrence and lived at 1931 Naismith Drive. He noted that Naismith signed the bottom of the original rules in 1931, 40 years after they were typed. In true Jayhawk fashion, Booth couldn’t help but take a couple of lighthearted jabs at Missouri during the ceremony. “I went to high school at Lawrence High,” he said. “That’s where we learned of the Civil War and how some evil people from Missouri came over and burnt down Lawrence. I approach this with a little bit of trepidation.” Josh Swade, an avid Kansas basketball fan who attended the university and now is a tel-

evision producer in New York, played a big role in persuading the Booths to purchase the rules. As did Phog Allen’s grandson, who went to the Booth home days before the auction to urge the family to bring the rules to Kansas. “Dr. Mark Allen, grandson of Phog Allen, called us up and said he’d like to come down and have dinner with us,” David Booth said. “That was a Wednesday night before the auction. He came to Austin and really impressed us with how important it was that these come to KU, so we decided to bid on it.” Swade is working on a video documentary of the path the rules have taken, from Swade’s efforts after he heard last year the rules were going on sale to the Booths’ winning bid via telephone in the Sotheby’s auction.

Here’s the great thing about me: I love to play and am very outgoing with people and other cats, but I’m not a rowdy boy. That’s why everyone likes me so much — I know when to say when! I’m about 8 months old, with a classy black coat and curious green eyes. I’m not crazy about all noise here, but in a loving home, I know the world will become a beautiful place.

I’m friendly, full of joy, and gosh I can’t wait to share with you. A pit bull mix, I’m 1 to 2 years old and have a beautiful soft brown coat marked with white. I’ll take all the play time you can give me! I’m a sweet girl, maybe too exuberant for little kids, but older kids will love me. I’m smart and could be a good watchdog. I most definitely will be your loyal and steadfast best friend forever.

I was an adorable little girl when I came to the shelter as a puppy. Sadly it’s now 8 months later and I’m still here, a little bigger, but even more adorable. I’m happy-go-lucky, outgoing, eager to learn, and I really long for affection. I feel overlooked sometimes because I’m a black Lab, which are “common”. But please give me a chance — the friendship I’ll provide is certainly NOT common. It will be truly special.

BACKGROUND

The grant does not obligate the city to take over ownership of the 1950s-era depot. The city has expressed a desire to take over ownership of the building but has been unable to secure grant funding to undertake about $600,000 of needed repairs. This new grant — which

comes from the Federal Railroad Administration and the Kansas Department of Transportation — would put the city in a position to have all the architectural drawings completed for any future renovation. The grant requires a $25,000 match from the city.

SPENDING CUTS

Democrats unveil counteroffer By Andrew Taylor Associated Press Writer

Facing a federal deficit of $1.6 trillion, the White House and Congress have struggled to produce a long-overdue plan for the ongoing budget year. House Republican leaders are under pressure from tea partiers in their ranks for significant spending cuts, putting them at odds with Democrats who control the Senate. The Democratic plan unveiled by Reid, D-Nev., completely restores money the House GOP cuts from education, health and job training programs. It provides a modest increase for homeland security rather than the 2 percent cut proposed by Republicans. And it softens cuts to housing subsidies and community development grants, while restoring about $5 billion in foreign aid, including help for allies in the war on terror like Afghanistan and Pakistan. But it’s not likely to please the Defense Department. The Pentagon has already

complained that the slightly more generous House measure would leave it without enough money to meet vital military requirements. Reid promises votes next week on both plans but said he doesn’t expect either to win the 60 votes needed to pass. “Our plan recognizes that we’re not in a competition to determine who can cut the most, without regard for the consequences,” Reid said. He said House Republicans’ plan “is based in ideology, ours is based in reality. These are decisions about real money that solve real problems that affect real lives.” Sen. Mitch McConnell, RKy., a participant in Thursday’s talks with Vice President Joe Biden and congressional leaders, said the Democratic plan does nothing more than the status quo. It falls far short of a Housepassed GOP bill slashing domestic agencies by 13 percent or more on average.

W A S H I N G T O N — Senate Democrats unveiled a detailed counteroffer Friday seeking to undo tens of billions of dollars in cuts Republicans would make to education, housing and other domestic programs. With the two parties maneuvering for advantage in their budget clash, the Democratic plan conforms to President Barack Obama’s opening gambit to cut another $6.5 billion from domestic agencies.

By Jeannine Aversa Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — Companies added more workers in February than in any month in almost a year — a turning point for the economy that finally pushed the unemployment rate below 9 percent. Economists say the stronger hiring should endure all year. The 222,000 jobs the private sector created more than offset layoffs by financially squeezed state and local governments. They slashed 30,000 jobs, the most since November. The unemployment rate sank to 8.9 percent, the lowest since April 2009. The rate has now fallen almost a full percentage point in just three months — the sharpest drop in a generation. Hiring last month was broad — factories, trucking companies, health care providers, construction firms, hotels and restaurants all added jobs. “Bottom line: The labor market is turning the corner,” said Michael Darda, chief economist at MKM Partners, an economic research firm. The figures suggest the economy has entered a healthier phase typical of what economists call a virtuous cycle: Americans are spending more, which raises corporate prof its, which leads to hiring and then more spending and growth. During the recession, the cycle was more vicious than virtuous: Waves of layoffs suppressed consumer spending, which lowered corporate profits and triggered more job cuts.

On Wall Street, another spike in oil prices rattled investors and overshadowed the good news on hiring. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 88 points, one day after posting its biggest gain of 2011. Other forces are still working against the economic recovery. State and local governments are expected to keep shedding jobs. And inflation and higher gas prices resulting from the Middle East unrest pose threats. Still, economists now think private companies will feel comfortable enough to add 200,000 jobs a month through the rest of this year. That would be an improvement from the average of 150,000 jobs created during the past three months. It takes about 125,000 new jobs a month just to keep up with population growth and hold the unemployment rate stable. It could take up to 300,000 to reduce the unemployment rate significantly, economists say. Stronger job growth should put the economy on track to grow at a roughly 4 percent annual rate in the first three months of this year, economists said. That would be much better than the 2.8 percent pace in the final three months of 2010. Job creation has been the missing ingredient in the economic recovery. The economy’s service sector, which employs most of the work force, is expanding at the fastest pace in more than five years. Shoppers are spending more. U.S. exporters are selling more abroad. Stock prices have surged.

37 killed as Gadhafi forces battle rebels By Maggie Michael Associated Press Writer

TRIPOLI, LIBYA — Moammar Gadhafi’s regime struck back at its opponents with a powerful attack Friday on the closest opposition-held city to Tripoli and a barrage of tear gas and live ammunition to smother new protests in the capital. At least 37 people died in fighting and in an explosion at an ammunitions depot in Libya’s rebellious east. The bloodshed signaled an escalation in efforts by both sides to break the deadlock that has gripped Libya’s 18day upheaval, which has lasted longer than the Egyptian revolt that led to the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak and inspired a wave of protests across the region. So far, Gadhafi has had little success in taking back territory, with several rebel cities repelling assaults and the entire eastern half of the country under rebel control. But the opposition forces have seemed unable to go on the offensive to march on pro-Gadhafi areas. Meanwhile, in Tripoli — Gadhafi’s most important bastion — his loyalists have waged a campaign of terror to ensure that protesters do not rise up in significant numbers. Friday’s assault on the rebel city of Zawiya, about 30 miles west of Tripoli, appeared to be the strongest yet by Gadhafi’s forces after repeated earlier forays against it were beaten back. In the morning, troops from the elite Khamis Brigade — named after the Gadhafi son who commands it — bombarded the city’s western edges with mortar shells, heavy machine guns, tanks and anti-aircraft weapons, several residents said.

LIBYAN REBELS who are part of the forces against Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi stand with an anti-aircraft gun as they prepare the frontline Friday near Ras Lanuf, west of the town of Brega, eastern Libya. evening, another brigade had opened a front on the eastern side. Armed Zawiya citizens backed by allied army units were fighting back. The commander of the rebel forces — Col. Hussein Darbouk — was killed by fire from an anti-aircraft gun, said Alaa al-Zawi, an activist in the city. Darbouk was a colonel in Gadhafi’s army who defected along with other troops in Zawiya early in the uprising. A witness in Zawiya’s hospital said at least 18 people were killed and 120 wounded. Libyan state TV reported the attackers had retaken the city. But al-Zawi, the witness and other residents said it remained in rebel hands, with skirmishes continuing after nightfall.

A doctor on the scene said pro-Gadhafi fighters would not allow medics to treat the injured, opened f ire on ambulances trying to assist and hauled away the bodies of some of the dead in an apparent effort to keep death toll reports low. The gunmen killed a wounded rebel with three shots as a medic tried to pull him to safety, then even threatened to shoot the medic, the doctor said. The doctor and witnesses spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation. The day’s other fighting took place at Ras Lanouf, a small oil port 380 miles east of Tripoli, just outside the long swath of eastern Libya controlled by the opposition. Rebels attacked Ras

Lanouf on Friday afternoon, feeling flush with victory after repelling Gadhafi forces who attacked them days earlier at Brega, a larger oil facility just to the east. Fighters armed with Kalashnikovs and heavy machine guns were seen streaming in pickup trucks and other vehicles from Brega heading in the direction of Ras Lanouf. They battled about 3,000 pro-Gadhafi troops, mainly around the facility’s airstrip, said a resident of the town. She reported heavy explosions starting around 4 p.m. As night fell, the explosions eased, she said, but it was not clear who was in control of the complex, which includes a port and storage facilities for crude coming from fields in the deserts to the south.

Vietnam scrambles to save sacred turtle By Tran Van Minh Associated Press Writer

HANOI, VIETNAM — Hundreds of people are working around the clock to clean up a lake in the heart of Vietnam’s capital in hopes of saving a rare, ailing giant turtle that is considered a sacred symbol of Hanoi. Some experts fear pollution at Hoan Kiem Lake is killing the giant freshwater turtle, which has a soft shell the size of a desk. It is one of the world’s most-endangered species, with only four known to be alive worldwide. Teams of people are cleaning debris, pumping fresh water into the lake and using sandbags to expand a tiny island to serve as a “turtle hospital.” The rescuers may even try to net the animal for the first time as part of the effort. The Hoan Kiem turtle is rooted in Vietnamese folklore, and some even believe the animal that lives in the lake today is the same mythical creature that helped a Vietnamese king fend off the Chinese nearly six centuries ago. It swims alone in the lake

IN THIS PHOTO TAKEN THURSDAY, a rare giant soft-shelled turtle shows an open wound on its neck at Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi, Vietnam. Hundreds of people are working around the clock at the famous lake in hopes of saving the beloved turtle that’s believed to be sacred. and in the past has been glimpsed only rarely sticking its wrinkled neck out of the water. But it has recently surfaced much more frequently, alarming the public with visible raw open wounds on its head, legs and shell. Meetings were called, a council was established and 10 government agencies were put to work to try to save it. It’s the first time anyone has tried to capture the turtle, and Vietnamese have flocked to the lake in hopes of spotting it — a sign of good luck — as newspapers run daily articles about its plight.

“For the Vietnamese, the Hoan Kiem Lake turtle is the most sacred thing,” said retired state employee Nguyen Thi Xuan, 63, who traveled from a suburban district to try to get a glimpse of the animal. “He has helped the Vietnamese to defeat foreign invaders and also helped the country to have peace. I hope he will live forever.” The lake, which measures 1 mile, is a city landmark for its curved red bridge leading to a temple on a tiny island. Weeping willows and other leafy trees shade a sidewalk that rings the water, a popular site for tourists and Hanoians to exercise and relax. But the lake has been trashed with everything from bricks and concrete to plastic bags and raw sewage. It is not uncommon to see men urinating directly into the murky water. The pollution is slowly killing the Hoan Kiem turtle, a Vietnamese biologist warned. “I believe the injuries were caused by sharp edges from debris in the lake,” said Ha Dinh Duc, who has studied the lone turtle for 20 years and considers himself its caretak-

Attacker’s gun jammed, sparing airman By David McHugh Associated Press Writer

KARLSRUHE, GERMANY — U.S. Senior Airman Nicholas J. Alden was standing outside of a bus at Frankfurt Airport when a young man first asked him for a cigarette, then whether he was bound for Afghanistan. When Alden answered yes, the 21-year-old Kosovo Albanian fatally shot him, point blank, in the back of the head, then stormed aboard the bus shouting “Allah Akbar” — Arabic for “God is great.” He shot and killed Airman 1st Class Zachary R. Cuddeback, who was at the wheel, then shot and injured two others, German authorities said Friday. Gunman Arid Uka then pointed his FN 9mm pistol at yet another airman seated on the bus. “He pointed his pistol at his head and pulled the trigger twice, but the pistol jammed and no shots came

out,” prosecutor Rainer Griesbaum told reporters in Karlsruhe. Jammed, empty shell casing prevented the weapon from firing. Those casings saved up to six other lives — the number of cartridges left in the magazine. Uka, who was raised and schooled in Germany, refused to speak Thursday when brought before a judge and formally charged with two counts of murder and three counts of attempted murder. But shortly after the attack, he told police that he had taken the weapon and two knives to the airport specifically to kill Americans “as revenge for the American mission in Afghanistan,” Griesbaum said. Uka said a YouTube video he saw the day before the incident allegedly showing a brutal raid on a home by U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan had inspired him to prevent what

he considered “further atrocities.” When he saw the busload of 16 airmen parked outside Terminal 2 awaiting transport to the nearby Ramstein Air Base, he approached Alden, 25, from South Carolina, who was assigned to the 48th Security Forces Squadron at RAF Lakenheath in England. Cuddeback, 21, hailed from Virginia and was assigned to the 86th Vehicle Readiness Squadron at Ramstein Air Base in Germany. He was the only airman in uniform. The others were dressed in civilian cloths. After his weapon jammed, Uka fled. The 22-year-old airman he last tried to shoot chased him into the airport terminal, where he and police overpowered the attacker. The two U.S. airmen who were wounded have not been identified, and one of them remained hospitalized in critical condition on Friday.

er. “The poor quality of water also makes the conditions unbearable for the turtle.” The turtle rescue team hopes to coax the creature onto land so they can treat the wounds. Sandbags have been built up to expand a small island for it to emerge. But if it does not crawl onto the platform by itself, a net will be used to capture it. Veterinarians will then work at the so-called “turtle hospital” to take skin and shell samples for analysis, and will then determine how to treat it. Photos reveal scars and pink open sores on its head and legs. A white fungus-like material also covers a large section of its shell, which also has lesions. One American turtle expert, who has lived in Vietnam for 14 years, says he’s not convinced the ailments are life-threatening because the creature’s behavior has not changed significantly. It is surfacing on warm days, as it should, and appears to be swimming freely and feeding. No one knows the turtle’s age or gender, but turtle experts estimate it is probably between 80 and 100-plus years old.

unmistakable is “that…towhat’s the Middle Easterner,

Iraq today is the only functioning Arab democracy, with multiparty elections and the freest press.” It began on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s first Asia trip when she publicly played down human rights concerns in China. The administration also cut aid for democracy promotion in Egypt by 50 percent. And cut civil society funds — money for precisely the organizations we now need to help Egyptian democracy — by 70 percent. This new realism reached its apogee with Obama’s reticence and tardiness in saying anything in support of the 2009 Green Revolution in Iran. On the contrary, Obama made clear that nuclear negotiations with

the discredited and murderous regime (talks that a child could see would go nowhere) took precedence over the democratic revolutionaries in the street — to the point where demonstrators in Tehran chanted “Obama, Obama, you are either with us or with them.” Now that revolution has spread from Tunisia to Oman, however, the administration is rushing to keep up with the new dispensation, repeating the fundamental tenet of the Bush Doctrine that Arabs are no exception to the universal thirst for dignity and freedom. Iraq, of course, required a sustained U.S. military engagement to push back totalitarian forces trying to extinguish the new Iraq. But is this not what we are being asked to do with a no-fly zone over Libya? In conditions of active civil war, taking command of Libyan air space requires a sustained military engagement. Now, it can be argued that the price in blood and treasure that America paid to establish Iraq’s democracy was too high. But whatever side you take on that question, what’s unmistakable is that to the Middle Easterner, Iraq today is the only functioning Arab democracy, with multiparty elections and the freest press. Its democracy is fragile and imperfect — last week, security forces cracked down on demonstrators demanding better services — but were Egypt to be as politically developed in, say, a year as is Iraq today, we would

To the editor: Integrity is defined in the dictionary using words such as purity, honesty, honor, goodness and morality. Integrity is doing the “right” thing at the “right” time. It is apparent that Brigham Young University still believes in integrity. Too many times when someone does something inappropriate, they quickly try to blame others or make excuses. It is unfortunate that this action will have a negative impact on the basketball team, but I know they will stay focused on what is really important in life: Honor your commitments and accept the consequences if you do not.

think it a great success. For Libyans, the effect of the Iraq War is even more concrete. However much bloodshed they face, they have been spared the threat of genocide. Gadhafi was so terrified by what we did to Saddam & Sons that he pleabargained away his weapons of mass destruction. For a rebel in Benghazi, that is no small matter. Yet we have been told incessantly how Iraq poisoned the Arab mind against America. Really? Where is the rampant anti-Americanism in any of these revolutions? It’s Yemen’s president and the delusional Gadhafi who are railing against American conspiracies to rule and enslave. The demonstrators in the streets of Egypt, Iran and Libya have been straining their eyes for America to help. They are not chanting the anti-war slogans — remember “No blood for oil”? — of the American left. Why would they? America is leaving Iraq having taken no oil, having established no permanent bases, having left behind not a puppet regime but a functioning democracy. This, after Iraq’s purplefingered exercises in free elections seen on television everywhere set an example for the entire region. Facebook and Twitter have surely mediated this pan-Arab (and Iranian) reach for dignity and freedom. But the Bush Doctrine set the premise.

SAUDI ARABIA

Saudis should offer Libya humanitarian aid

do not want tanks rolling in from Egypt or the U.S. bombing Gadhafi’s barracks in Tripoli. It is a courageous stand but how long they stick to it remains to be seen. Humanitarian aid, however, is another matter. There is clearly a humanitarian crisis on the LibyanTunisian border, which needs immediate help. Recently, some 70,000 refugees — mostly Egyptians — have crossed the frontier and while the Tunisians are doing their best to provide food, medical aid and what shelter they can, they have been overwhelmed by the enormity of the crisis. The Egyptian authorities have been slow on the uptake. ... Egypt has a navy. It has not been involved in the country’s political crisis. The task of sailing along the North African coast — a two-day trip at most — to pick up stranded Egyptian citizens is a simple one. In the present climate, this delay is not going to help the Egyptian military’s reputation. ... So what aid is the Arab world sending? What aid is Saudi Arabia and other Gulf Cooperation Council countries sending? Saudi Arabia has always been very generous in helping others in a crisis but often the perception is that it sends help only after everyone else has done so or after it is criticized for not doing anything. That must not be allowed to happen this time. Food and medicine must not be used as a weapon against the Libyan people. Saudi Arabia should be ready to provide humanitarian aid to Libya immediately.

What the Lawrence Journal-World stands for

ESTABLISHED 1891

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 5, 1911: YEARS "Fifty years ago AGO today, a Lawrence IN 1911 man, J. B. Watkins, stood in the center of the square at Washington and heard Abraham Lincoln deliver his first inaugural address. With the exception of J. B. Usher also of Lawrence, there is probably not another Kansas man who saw Lincoln on that memorable occasion. ... Another Lawrence resident has vivid memories of that inauguration a half century ago. Mrs. Margaret Usher, 93 years old, attended the inaugural ball in the White House that night. She still has the dress she wore on that occasion.”

American greed To the editor: Why is it that the poor people and the middle class in this country always have to pay for the greed of the rich people? Three years ago, a handful of greedy bankers on Wall Street brought down the entire U.S. economy. Millions of good, hard-working Americans, who have played by the rules all their lives have lost their jobs, their homes, their savings, retirement plans and even their health care for what? Why do school teachers in Wisconsin have to pay for these billionaires’ insatiable greed? This is not right! Why aren’t the greedy Wall Street bankers in prison like Bernie Madoff? Why do they continue to receive their outlandish salaries and bonuses, while the very taxpayers who bailed them out have lost everything? Now that the greed of these people has brought the entire country down, our new Republican governors are kicking them when they are down. This will not be forgotten! I applaud the Journal-World for bringing to light how the billionaire Koch brothers contributed heavily to the Wisconsin governor’s race and now are in the process of extinguishing the last glimmer of hope and dignity that the school teachers of that state have. It will not be communism

or terrorism that brings this great country down; it will be the insatiable greed of a handful of extremely rich and powerful men who will not rest until they own everything. Will we stand by and allow this to happen? As one person, I feel helpless. Perhaps if we all stand up together, we can do something. Rose Thomas, Eudora

Precious dollars To the editor: The GAO just released a comprehensive report on waste and redundancy in the federal government, highlighting numerous overlapping programs and agencies that spend billions of taxpayer dollars with little or no oversight. The numbers are staggering and cover the entire scope of the federal government’s reach. A recent survey reviewed federal programs alphabetically and counted 4,700 programs before it even got to the middle of the alphabet. Our elected officials should begin immediately to reduce the unnecessary waste of our resources. Perhaps we should put the same fire under our other elected officials. Have the folks in Topeka, City Hall, at the school district offices, and in county government assured themselves and us that their use of tax dollars is as efficient and effective as is possible? At a time when many of us taxpayers are juggling expenses to pay for the ever-increasing price of gasoline and the food we buy, our locally elected officials should be making sure that the dollars we sent them are being put to the best use and not just paying lip service to the idea of fiscal responsibility. For example: Do the high salaries and bonuses of the Kansas Bioscience Authority reflect the actual progress and accomplishments of that agency? Or is this an example of lax oversight and an agency that is responsible unto to itself? Every taxpayer should demand that our government agencies actually work as though they had to justify every dollar spent. Ken Meyer, Lawrence

KU looks to snap MU’s home streak By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

COLUMBIA, MO. — Awful on the road, Missouri’s basketball team has been awesome at home this season. “I think that’s true for the most part with most teams across America. It’s a natural phenomenon,” Kansas University coach Bill Self said with a shrug, referring to squads struggling in enemy gyms and excelling in their own. “I don’t know details. I don’t know their team, but usually

with us we are much more active at home than away from home from things like the energy of the crowd. That’s why it’s called homecourt advantage. I’m sure they’ll be turned up big-time for us.”

The Tigers (22-8, 8-7 Big 12), who play host to rival KU (28-2, 13-2) at 11 a.m. today, are a perfect 17-0 in Mizzou Arena — 7-0 in Big 12 games. On the road, MU is 2-7 overall and 1-7 in the league. Lending hope to MU fans regarding the NCAA Tournament, the Tigers are 3-1 on neutral courts. “People take pride in protecting their home turf. That basically sums it up,” MU junior center Steve Moore told the Columbia Missourian, asked about the home/road discrepancy.

“The ambiance is just a different feel,” MU junior guard Kim English theorized to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “You can’t compare scores. You can’t compare games. It's just a different beast on the road. You just have to come prepared from the get-go.” MU coach Mike Anderson has tried to sidestep the issue. “I just talk about us getting better,” Anderson said. His Tigers actually played one of their best road games in

Party’s over, boys

Pioneers squash Lions’ state dreams By Clark Goble

Journal-World Sports Writer

OLATHE — After a 63-50 seasonending loss to Leavenworth, senior Jake Johnson stood in the hallway outside the Olathe North gymnasium and stared into space. Other members of the Lawrence High boys basketball team fiddled with their cell phones. Some looked straight down at the ground. There just wasn’t much to say. “It’s been such a good ride,” Lawrence High coach Mike Lewis said. “It’s been a roller coaster. We just buckled in and tried to hold on. You blink and it’s over. That’s what hurts.” The Lions, just two days after upsetting top-seeded Olathe South, took an early 5-4 lead before watching the Pioneers sustain a 22-2 run. Leavenworth led by 16 points in the middle of the second quarter. “We didn’t have any offensive firepower to get ourselves back into it,” Lewis said. “It was pretty obvious that they were the better team tonight.” Junior KJ Pritchard, the Lions’ leading scorer during the season, wasn’t 100 percent after spraining his ankle in Wednesday’s victory. He couldn’t drive to the basket with the authority he did during the season and was forced to settle for jumpshots. Lewis said having Pritchard at full strength might have helped, but noted that high school basketball is subject to randomness on a night-to-night basis. Junior Anthony Buffalomeat led the Lions (8-14) with 12 points. Pritchard and junior Logan Henrichs added 10. The Pioneers (16-6) held a 29-

B A L D W I N C I T Y — The festive mood normally present when the doors swing open at 3:15 p.m. and students file out of the building after a day of classes at Baldwin High was replaced by long faces and quiet voices on a dreary Friday afternoon. Many at the school were in mourning for Wes Leonard, the high school basketball player from Fennville, Mich., who collapsed on the basketball court seconds after hitting a gamewinning layup for his high school’s undefeated team Thursday night. Leonard was pronounced dead at the hospital two hours after hitting the shot. The chief medical examiner for Ottawa County in western Michigan filed the cause of death as cardiac arrest brought on by dilated cardiomyopathy, a condition that enlarges and weakens heart muscles and can go undetected. Leonard, 16, had spent the first 11 years of his life in Baldwin. The family moved to Michigan when he was in the sixth grade. Most of the country came to know of Leonard’s athletic ability, kind soul and tragic death by watching ESPN SportsCenter reports throughout the day Friday. The sadness hit closer to home, took deeper root, in Baldwin City. The Leonards and Gaylords of Baldwin remained close after the Leonards moved.

On one hand, tonight’s game at Kansas marks the end of the regular season for Kansas State and forward Chantay Caron, a 2009 Free State High grad. On the other, it’s actually the beginning of something bigger. For the first of what figures to be four times in her college career, Caron will return to the town in which she starred as a

like I was crazy for wearing purple.” That’s not the case anymore, nor was it really ever in the Caron house. At 6:30 tonight, when Caron and the Wildcats (19-9, 9-6 Big 12) take on Kansas (19-10, 6-9), there will be plenty of purple people on hand to support the former Firebird. In the previous Sunflower Showdown, a 65-60 victory by KSU in Manhattan, Caron started and scored three points, but

played just five minutes. She said she’s hoping for more time on the floor this time around, particularly because this one figures to be played in front of even more friends and family members. “Coming home, I mean, I’m excited, and I want to go in and have a good game,” she said. “But, to me, it’s really no different than any other game. It’s just in my hometown.” Please see CARON, page 4B

Royals sting Garza, rally past Cubs, 5-4 SURPRISE, ARIZ. (AP) — Matt Garza was bruised, though certainly not battered. Garza gave up one single in two scoreless innings Friday, then pulled from the Chicago Cubs’ 5-4 loss to the Kansas City Royals after he was hit by a liner off the bat of Jeff Francoeur. The ball ricocheted off Garza to shortstop Starlin Castro, who threw out Francoeur at first base.

Cubs manager Mike Quade, and the trainer rushed to the mound, but Garza shook off the pain and finished the inning by retiring two more hitters. “Everything’s fine,” said Garza, who had a baseball-size welt on his back. “It’s just one of those things. I would rather take it now than later. At least I know my body can take it.” Max Ramirez came in to hit for

Garza, who threw 20 strikes in 26 pitches. The Cubs jumped to a 4-0 lead with Tyler Colvin going 3-for-3, including a home run in the first off Bruce Chen and an RBI double in the fifth off Patrick Keating. Royals rookie Eric Hosmer tied it in the sixth with a grand slam off left-hander John Gaub, who walked Alcides Escobar, Mitch Maier and Mike Moustakas to load the bases.

“Hosmer had a phenomenal atbat,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “He was fouling off pitches until he could get something he could drive and he didn’t miss it. He waited back on a 3-2 breaking ball and just smoked it.” Maier singled home Joaquin Arias, who led off the seventh with a single, for the go-ahead run. Maier is 8-for-8 with two walks in his past 10 plate-appearances.

COMMENTARY

Big plans in works for Texas TV By Barry Horn The Dallas Morning News

The coming-to-a-television-set-nearyou-soon Texas Longhorns cable network took a giant step forward this week when ESPN announced it was putting Dave Brown and Stephanie Druley in charge. Brown and Druley, unknown outside the self-proclaimed World Wide Leader’s headquarters, have been heavy hitters in Bristol, Conn. Their moving to Austin shows just how serious ESPN is about its investment. Of course the $300 million ESPN is sending to the University of Texas was a pretty good indicator of the media giant’s intent. Bringing Time Warner in on the deal ensures the network will get plenty of carriage. And now, Brown and Druley signal that quality programming is ahead. Brown has been in charge of getting top-notch college football matchups on ESPN. Before that, he was ESPN’s college basketball matchup guru. He understands the tick-tock of both games and knows just about everyone there is to know in college sports. Druley has been in charge of the network’s NFL studio shows, which from a production standpoint have been first-rate on her watch. Brown no doubt was selected to help grease the wheels with Texas’ Big 12 rivals who see a Longhorns network as a loselose proposition for them. That’s a “lose” in exposure and a “lose” in the competitive world of recruiting. “I hope those schools look at it that when we do games involving them, it’s more exposure for their programs as well,” said Brown, ever the diplomat. “The other schools in the Big 12 are important. We can’t function without them. I look forward to working with all of the athletic directors on a closer basis.” Brown was speaking via cell phone this week on a commute from Georgetown to Austin. Turns out his brother and sister as well as their parents already live in the Austin area. Originally from Syracuse, N.Y., Brown’s brother earned a master’s degree at Texas and decided to stay in the area and ply his trade in the architecture business. His sister so enjoyed visiting her brother, she too settled in Austin. The parents followed. Given the opportunity to join his family and being in on the ground floor of a new venture, Brown didn’t have to think twice. Druley is from Houston. She is a Texas grad. She’s coming home. Most famously in these parts, she was the executive who chose Fort Worth over Dallas to be ESPN’s Super Bowl home. She is on vacation and was unavailable for comment. Brown promised that the yet-to-benamed network, scheduled to be launched in August, will mirror the ESPN model. He expects to have as many as 75 people on staff by launch time. “We will model everything we do after what we have done at ESPN,” he said. “That means we will put on as many live events as we can. And then, which is the reason it’s so outstanding that Stephanie is here, we will offer a lot of studio programming that will give us a strong offering to complement the games.” So on a college football Saturday, for example, the Longhorns network will offer a Texas GameDay pregame and return after the action airs on ABC, ESPN or Fox Sports Net with an exhaustive postgame. During the week, Brown hopes to “offer any kind of behind-the-scenes access we can get. “We want to build as tight an emotional connection between athletes and fans as we can,” he said.

NFL, union agree to one-week extension WASHINGTON — Buying time to try to close big gaps on big issues, the NFL and the players’ union agreed Friday to extend the deadline for negotiating a new collective bargaining agreement by a week. The current labor deal had been set to run out Thursday night. But the sides used an initial 24-hour extension to discuss and vote on the second, lengthier delay. After taking the weekend to assess their positions, the NFL and union will resume mediation Monday, then have until the end of next Friday to talk. “We’re obviously having a lot of dialogue,” Commissioner Roger Goodell said Friday, the 11th day that he and NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith have spent time at the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. “We met for a lot of days. And we are going to meet for more.” Although the seven-day extension is the first true signal that owners and players might avoid a protracted legal skirmish and work stoppage, it’s clear they are not close to a new CBA. “It’s a challenge,” NFL general counsel and lead labor negotiator Jeff Pash said. “We’ve got very serious issues. We’ve got significant differences.”

NFL Packers’ McCarthy extended MILWAUKEE — Mike McCarthy embraced Green Bay’s culture from the first day he arrived as coach of the Packers. After his first Super Bowl championship, he’ll stay in the NFL’s smallest market for years to come. McCarthy signed a new multiyear contract Friday less than a month after the Packers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers, 31-25, for Green Bay’s 13th NFL championship. In five seasons, McCarthy has led the Packers to three playoff appearances, including this year’s Super Bowl and an NFC title game in 2008, while also deftly handling the transition from Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers and this season’s spate of injuries.

Burress to leave prison in June NEW YORK — Former New York Giants Super Bowl star Plaxico Burress is to get out of prison in June, after officials agreed Friday to shave about three months off his time behind bars in a gun case. With Burress’ release date now set for June 6, his agent and lawyer said he’s looking to return to football — and a number of teams are looking at him. “He’s counting the hours,” lawyer Peter M. Frankel said. “He’s extremely positive.”

COLLEGE BASKETBALL Pac-10’s top scorer suspended SPOKANE, WASH. — Washington State’s Klay Thompson, the leading scorer in the Pacific10, will not play in today’s game against UCLA after he was cited for suspicion of marijuana possession following the team’s victory over Southern Cal. Coach Ken Bone made that decision Friday morning. The loss of Thompson, who is averaging more than 21 points per game, is a major blow as WSU seeks to keep alive its hopes for an NCAA berth.

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL Texan gives birth, coaches AUSTIN, TEXAS — Amber Branson is one tough basketball coach. Shortly after coaching Lipan High to a regional semifinal victory on Feb. 25, Branson gave birth to daughter Leslie. And about 15 hours later, she was back on the bench guiding the Lady Indians to another win and the school’s first berth in the Texas state tournament since 2003. “I was pretty tired,” Branson said Friday, a few hours before Lipan was routed by defending champion Neches, 65-26, in the semifinals of Class 1A Division II, the division for the state’s smallest schools. “I never felt like I couldn’t do it. God’s been good to me this week.”

GOLF Stanley leads Honda by shot PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLA. — Delighted to be 5-under par at the midway point of the windy Honda Classic, Rory Sabbatini predicted the score would be enough to win the tournament. A few hours later, his lead was gone. The gusts of more than 20 mph abated some, and Kyle Stanley took advantage with his late tee time Friday, shooting a 4-under 66 for a one-stroke lead over Sabbatini.

AUTO RACING Kenseth snares Vegas pole LAS VEGAS — Matt Kenseth was all too aware of his lousy qualifying record, and even with a fast car, he figured he’d screw up his Friday lap around Las Vegas Motor Speedway. He didn’t, though, instead turning a flawless lap at 188.884 mph to set a track record. It was the fifth pole of Kenseth’s career, and first since Darlington in 2009. Kenseth, who broke Kurt Busch’s year-old qualifying record of 188.719, will attempt to break his 72-race winless streak in Sunday’s race. His last victory was in 2009 at California.

Morningstar recalls Antlers By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

COLUMBIA, MO. — As of earlier this week, Brady Morningstar hadn’t been bothered by Missouri’s infamous student cheering section, “The Antlers.” “It’s kind of surprising because they phoned me all last year,” Morningstar, Kansas University’s senior guard from Lawrence, said. “Both of ’em, Missouri and K-State, called me (last year),” he added. “I never answer (their) calls. I never talk to them on the phone. That’d waste my (cell) minutes. I need minutes,” he added, laughing. Counting his red-shirt season, Morningstar has an 8-1 record against rival Mizzou — 3-1 in Columbia, site of today’s 11 a.m. Border War battle. “The fans are fun at K-State and Missouri, but different,” Morningstar said. “K-State … they are at halfcourt and Missouri behind the basket. They say some mean things. The meanest thing? It probably wouldn’t be appropriate to put on camera or radio. It’s all fun and games. To me the more stuff they say ... the more fun it is.” Like Morningstar, senior Tyrel Reed is looking forward to his final trip to Mizzou Arena. “It’s a game everyone circles on their schedule every year,” Reed said. “The rivalry goes back hundreds of years. It’s big. It’s who people hate around here. I’ve grown up my whole life not liking Missouri. “Even though I went on a visit there (as senior recruit at Burlington High), I knew in my heart I wanted to be a Jayhawk. We have to go take care of business. We know they have a good program. They really do. It’s going to be a tough one.” The Jayhawks, who have clinched at least a share of their seventh straight Big 12 title, can wrap up an undisputed conference crown today. A loss, coupled with a Texas victory over Baylor, would make KU and UT co-champs. “I think it’s Missouri, the rivalry more than anything else,” KU coach Bill Self said of motivation for today’s game. “If you play shirts and skins with nobody in the stands, I think our guys would be excited to play. I’m sure theirs would, too. That (rivalry) is primary. Actually, a chance to win the league outright is also a big factor.” Self has a 16-3 career record versus Missouri — 13-3 in eight years at KU.

Lawrence this season. KU outlasted MU, 103-86, in a game the Jayhawks led, 46-42, at the break. “I’d be shocked if there were that many points scored (today) — shocked,” Self said. “But it’ll be a fast game. They want to play fast. We want to play fast. It can be misleading, a misnomer because there are so many more possessions (in an up-tempo contest). More possessions usually produce more points. We have to do a better job defensively. We allowed it to be a H-O-R-S-E contest the first half against them, and of course they stepped up and made shots.” KU’s Marcus Morris scored a team-leading 22 points in the first meeting. Mario Little had 17 points off 7-of-9 shooting, while Markieff Morris, Tyshawn Taylor and Travis Releford had 16, 13 and 10, respectively. Lawrence Bowers scored 19 to lead Mizzou, followed by Phil Pressey (17) and Ricardo Ratliffe (12). “I think it’s something we will focus on defending their motion,” KU junior guard Taylor said. “They do a lot of backcutting and fade screens, single down. We’ll practice hard. I think we’ll be ready.” On the intangible side, the Jayhawks realize they can wrap up an undisputed Big 12 title with a victory. If KU loses

“I don’t know if it’s anything other than history,” Self said of the sometimes-bitter rivalry. “I’ve only been a part of it going on eight years, and I was part of a great Missouri rivalry when I was at Illinois also. This one is more intense, and there is more hatred. I think this stems back from ... I don’t think it’s the players or coaches or anything as much as it is how people have been raised — the area of the country where they have been raised. It comes back to statehood, both places. There is certainly a lot of pride that exists in both states, and this is the game that many people circle that are fans of each respective school.” ●

Early start: The Border War has an early-bird start time of 11 a.m. today. “It’s as good as it gets,” Morningstar said. “It’s what you want to have, going on the road. At Missouri, go get a win, early-morning game, have a good bus ride home, but you’ve got to get your work done there first. “Come (today), we’ve got to be ready because they’ll be ready. I know that.”

Manning’s father passes away at 68 J-W Staff Report

Former Kansas University assistant coach Ed Manning, father of current assistant coach Danny Manning, died Friday morning in Harris Methodist Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas. Ed Manning, who battled a long-standing heart condition, was 68. Services for Manning are pending. “This is a huge loss for our family and the Jayhawk family,” Danny Manning said Friday. He rode the bus to Columbia, Mo., Friday afternoon with the rest of KU’s coaches and players for today’s game against Missouri. “Many people have already reached out to us in such a short period, and we are very grateful for all the thoughts, well wishes and prayers for my father and for us.” Ed Manning played basketball collegiately at Jackson State in Jackson, Miss. He then played professionally in the NBA, ABA and overseas. Following his professional basketball career, Manning

was an assistant coach at North Carolina A&T. He would later become an assistant coach at KU under coach Larry Brown from 1984-88. During that time, KU won the 1984 Big Eight tournament, advanced to two NCAA Final Fours (1986 and 1988) and won the 1988 national championship. Additionally, KU won the 1986 Big Eight regular-season and postseason championships en route to its Final Four appearance with Manning on the sidelines. Following his stint at KU, Manning followed Brown and was an NBA assistant coach with the San Antonio Spurs. He then worked as a scout in the NBA, in recent years for the Spurs. “Today, KU not only lost someone who was very instrumental to the success of Kansas basketball in the mid 1980s, but also a very good man who was thought of so highly by everyone who came in contact with him,” said Kansas head coach Bill Self, who was on staff at KU in 1985-86.

I think that’s the most important thing. It’s always about being happy. “I’m here,” he said. “We’re talking about Kansas. We’re getting ready for Kansas. That’s what we’re getting ready for. That’s what I want to talk about. We’ve got a big game coming up. My point to you is that, No. 1, I’m a Missouri Tiger. We love it here. I said we’re going to win a national championship.

and Texas beats Baylor, the Jayhawks share the league title with UT. “I think it’s both,” Taylor said of the motivation being winning league outright and beating a rival. “It’s definitely a rivalry. We know they will play us tough there. They are undefeated at home. The last time we played a rival on the road, it wasn’t too good (84-68 loss to Kansas State on Feb. 14). We’ve got to be better than we were at K-State. I think we know that. “I think we’ll be ready for their pressure, and the atmosphere will be crazy. We have to be ready to respond,” Taylor added. Self noted: “We’ve only played one road game since KState — Oklahoma,” he said of last Saturday’s 82-70 victory. “It was a game we made shots early. We didn’t feel the pressure in that game. We are going to feel some pressure (today).” That’s full-court pressure. KU suffered just 12 turnovers against an MU team that didn’t press much in Lawrence. Last year, KU suffered 19 turnovers in a 77-56 victory in Columbia. At home, the Tigers are holding opponents to 39 percent shooting and 29 percent from threepoint range, while forcing 21 turnovers per contest. MU ranks third in the country at 9.7 steals a game. “When we’re at home, the crowd kind of feeds off our energy, and we kind of do the same off theirs,” said MU’s

Marcus Denmon, a 6-3 junior guard out of Kansas City (Mo.) Hogan Prep. “It (Mizzou Arena) is a tough place to play in, and that kind of helps us out.” The Jayhawks are 13-3 overall versus Mizzou in the Self era. KU owns a 4-3 mark in Columbia, where, as Marcus Morris indicated, the pressing Tigers resemble “gnats that won’t get out of your kitchen when you leave dishes in there a long time.” “One thing you want to do,” Self said, “is take advantage of their aggressiveness, if you can. Like a lot of teams out there, if you are passive against them, their pressure becomes greater. We need to attack their pressure. That’s not any hidden secret at all. Sometimes we’ve had success doing that, and sometimes we have not at all. “They are a team that you can’t get hung up on turning it over once or twice in a row; when you put that much pressure on people, you will turn it over some. We have to make sure we limit our turnovers and take care of the basketball, be in attack mode. Then when we do screw up, our mistakes don’t lead to easy baskets.” KU, by the way, is 8-1 on the road this season, 6-1 in enemy gyms in league action. “It’s fun, a different kind of adrenaline rush,” KU sophomore Elijah Johnson said of the road. “Pride is something we have. We’ll see what happens.”

Kansas blanked, 12-0 J-W Staff Reports

LEBO — Khadre Lane scored 14 points, but Seabury Academy’s boys basketball team fell in the Class 1A sub-state semifinals, 63-45, to Waverly on Friday. “This is definitely bittersweet,” Seabury coach Ashley Battles said. “We played the absolute hardest schedule of any 1A team in the state. A lot of people look at 1A and don’t think it’s that impressive, but I can tell you, anyone in that gym could see that was the real deal.

BRIEFLY Walthall third at state WICHITA — Free State’s Justin Walthall bowled the highest series of his high school career at the best possible time, rolling a 725 to finish third at the Class 6A state bowling championships on Friday at Northrock Lanes. Walthall received a medal for his third-place finish. Nick Conrad, Free State’s other boys participant, rolled a 593 series. On the girls side, Free State’s Alyson Butler posted a 523 series, while McKenzie Dever bowled a 386 series.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -WORLD mate Dayton Valentine, now a sophomore who competed on the varsity football and basketball teams this season, placed second with three home runs. Holly Gaylord introduced a smile to her tear-filled face at the recollection of the home run derby. “My husband (Scott) was pitching to him, and he hit a line drive so hard at my husband, my husband fell and broke his ribs,” Holly said. Valentine, the secondplace finisher in the derby, learned of his friend’s tragic death Friday morning from watching ESPN and blurted out, “No way!” at the TV. “Our fathers were friends before we were born,” said Valentine, who made his father, Jeff Valentine, proud days before his death from cancer by helping Baldwin High to a playoff victory on the football field four months ago. “I remember Wes winning that home run derby. He was always a really good athlete.” Knowing how close the Gaylords are to the Leonards, Dayton’s mother, Marilee Valentine, brought pizza Friday to the Gaylords. “She was a real comfort,” Holly Gaylord said. “That’s the kind of community we have. We all pull together. We still feel like the Leonards are part of our community, even though they’re not.” For example, Holly said, Jocelyn Leonard came to town during the summer to sing at an Arnold family wedding. Jocelyn also used to sing the national anthem at the Maple Leaf Festival in Baldwin. Watching the coverage of Wes Leonard’s death on ESPN, Holly said, “felt like a dream.”

Added Caleb: “It just doesn’t click.” Detective John Hanson with the Lawrence Police Department coached Leonard when he played for the fourthand-fifth-grade Baldwin Bulldogs football team. “He was a great kid from a great family,” Hanson said. “He was one of those kids, the way he handled himself playing football, you knew he would excel at some sport.” Hanson remembered Leonard, a fullback and middle linebacker for the Bulldogs, needing to shift from a blocker to the featured running back late in the annual Toy Bowl championship game in 2004. “If I remember right, he scored the winning touchdown,” Hanson said. Leonard scored the winning touchdown with four minutes left in a 13-12 victory against the Lawrence Cougars, according to a Baldwin City Signal report. Hanson said the family moved early in Wes’ sixthgrade year, and Hanson remembered bringing their Baldwin Bulldogs jerseys to Wes and his younger brother Mitchell before the family moved. “The Leonards just kind of light up a room whenever you’re near them,” Holly Gaylord said. “Anybody would agree with me about that. Gary just called me two weeks ago and wanted to know what we were doing for spring break. Now we’re going to his son’s funeral.” Leonard died one day before the 21st anniversary of Loyola Marymount University basketball star Hank Gathers collapsing on the court and dying, triggered by his heart condition known as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

If that’s the case, Duncan has had plenty to be proud of this season. After committing to K-State as a sophomore at Free State, Caron never wavered in her desire to play for the Wildcats. While she improved during each season of her prep career, she kept her expectations in check for her first year of college ball. And then a funny thing happened. Caron became a starter. “I’m pretty happy with the way my first year has gone,” Caron said. “There was a lot that I wasn’t expecting to happen. Like starting, for instance. I was expecting to be a role player and having a set role and going in to do that. I didn’t expect to come in and just jump right in.” Although she has been a starter in the score book, she’s also been thrust into the role of supporting actress. While playing in 24 games for KSU, Caron has made 10 starts and averaged three points and two rebounds per game in 12 minutes.

“Athletically and defensively, she definitely fits in and she can play with anybody,” said Duncan, who not only has kept his eye on KSU box scores but also has gone to watch the ’Cats practice a couple of times. “I do think she’s gotten better, and, as a role player, I think she can help them win.” Though Kansas is locked in to the No. 8 seed in next week’s Big 12 tournament in Kansas City, Mo., the Jayhawks will be playing to regain some momentum after falling, 72-36, at Iowa State earlier this week. A victory would give the Jayhawks seven conference wins, the most in a single season under coach Bonnie Henrickson. It also could deal a blow to KState’s seed in the conference tourney. Kansas is 14-3 at home this season, and the Wildcats are 6-7 on the road. KU seniors Krysten Boogaard and Marisha Brown will be playing their final game at Allen Fieldhouse.

BRIEFLY Geubelle jumped 6.18m (2003.50 feet.) on her fourth attempt. The mark was her longest of the year. Fellow sophomore Francine Simpson also had a top jump of 6.18m (20-03.50 feet.), but finished second because her nextbest jump was shorter than

Geubelle’s. The mark was Simpson’s second-best of the season. Some KU track athletes will be in South Bend, Ind., today for the Alex Wilson Last Chance Meet, while others will be in Ames, Iowa, at the ISU NCAA Qualifier.

Nets 116, Raptors 103 L O N D O N — Brook Lopez scored 25 points, and New Jersey ended a six-game losing streak by beating Toronto on Friday in the first regular-season NBA game played in Europe. Deron Williams added 16 points and 11 assists at the O2 Arena despite playing with injuries to both hands — a strained right wrist and bruised left hand. It was the All-Star guard’s first win with the Nets since being acquired from Utah last week. DeMar DeRozan led Toronto with 30 points and Andrea Bargnani added 23. Attendance was an announced sellout of 18,689, but there were some empty seats.

————

I hope to live in a more healthy manner, give up distracting activities Friday The Rev. Rob Baldwin, pastor, Trinity Episcopal Church, 1011 Vt.: I am observing Lent this year in a couple of different ways. At Trinity we are having a special Lenten class on the book of Revelation, with dinner and worship at 6:30 p.m. each Wednesday. I n my p e r s o n a l d i s c i pline, I am going to try to g ive u p t h e d i s t ra c t i n g , often pointless, time wasting activities in my life like silly games and obsessively checking Facebook or news websites, and f ind more productive ways to use that time to do things that really matter like spending time with my family and friends

and in prayer. I also am hoping to live in a more healthy manner. I have realized that I am rapidly approaching the age my grandfather was when he died very Baldwin unexpectedly of a heart attack, and I would like to not repeat that for my own children. My advice for people who are looking to adopt a Lenten discipline is to not look for a cheap and easy way to participate by giving up something

picayune in nature. Giving something up may not be the answer at all, but perhaps taking something on, like a new ministry or a commitment to daily prayer. The purpose of a Lenten discipline is not to be miserable or publicly pious, but to be intentional about transforming your life into something of which both you and God can be proud. Jesus said that whatever we ask for in his name will be given to us, and that includes the strength and support to tackle the difficult areas of our lives that we know don’t look like they should. — Send e-mail to Rob Baldwin at rb@trinitylawrence.org.

Giving up desserts to celebrate the significance of Easter Doug Heacock, contemporary worship leader and director of media and communications, Lawrence Free Methodist Church, 3001 Lawrence Ave.: I have memories from my school days of classmates asking one another, “What are you giving up for Lent?” For a long time, I had only a rough idea of what that meant, because Lent was not really a big deal in the evangelical religious tradition in which I grew up. I knew it all began on Ash Wednesday, and that on Easter Sunday, people who gave things up for Lent could have them once again, but that was the extent of my understanding. Consequently, the observation of Lent has not been a

significant part of my walk as a believer. But a few years ago, my wife decided to begin observing Lent in various ways, such as giving up sweets and desserts during the Heacock Lenten season, in order to prepare for a more meaningful Easter celebration. This year, I’m going to do the same, and for the same reasons — not because I think it will help me earn favor with God, and not because of the associated health benefits, but because I think it will help me be better prepared to

celebrate the significance of Easter, and that preparation is what Lent is really about. Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus, the central, defining event of the Christian faith — it really IS a big deal. By observing Lent, I’m hoping that even my small acts of self-denial during the days preceding Easter will remind me of the One “who loved me and gave himself up for me” (Galatians 2:20). Those reminders of the kindness and love of Jesus can lead me to repentance, and to gratitude for what Jesus accomplished for me — forgiveness, peace with God and hope for the future.

Dear Picky: Constant nose picking can be an obsessivecompulsive disorder triggered by stress. Or it could be that her nose itches a lot. Or anniesmailbox@creators.com she may have sinus problems, in which case using a saline law may not have dealt with spray might help. But some this very kindly, but try to see habits are so ingrained, they it from her perspective. She are done unconsciously.

If you prefer to avoid her for the rest of your life, that’s up to you, but we’re sure your brother would appreciate it if you could somehow forgive her.

order for your sister to stop sticking her fingers up her nose, she will have to be aware that she’s doing it and want to stop. At the very least, she should do it in private. It is not an attractive process to watch.

Dear Annie: My sister is almost 50 years old and still picks her nose in public. When I am with her, it is very embarrassing. She uses a tissue, but nonetheless shoves her fingers up her nose. It is not subtle. I’ve told her to stop doing this and to blow her nose like a normal person, but she

‘Fast’ chronicles the wedding process of racer and model Driver Kyle Busch and model Samantha Sarcinella’s prepare for their big day on “Fast and Fabulous: A NASCAR Wedding” (7 p.m., Style). The worlds of car racing and fashion models don’t regularly mingle, so “Fast” promises to be something different. Or maybe not. For starters, subtract three points for any show that uses the word “Fabulous” in the title. And three more points for referring to Busch as a “bad boy.” There are “crazy” bachelor and bachelorette parties and elaborate shopping sprees. And a few pole-dancing lessons, too. Help yourself. ● Starting Saturday and airing at various times throughout the month, “The Best of Laugh-In” (Saturday, PBS, check local listings) becomes part of the PBS pledge programming lineup. While many shows claim to have “revolutionized” television, “Laugh-In” really qualifies, having single-handedly sped up the pace of variety shows and comedy delivery. Clearly a period piece, this fun retrospective could use a little explanatory narration to put the “Laugh-In” experience in some historical and cultural context. While the show clearly reflected the counter-cultural currents of its time (196873), it always invited famous conservatives and “squares” such as the Rev. Billy Graham, John Wayne and presidential candidate Richard Nixon to join the shenanigans. Some of the more silly and absurd physical comedy from “Laugh-in” predate and anticipate “Monty Python’s Flying Circus.” And also unmentioned here in this nostalgia-fest is how quickly some of the talent was forgotten while others have flourished. By 1975, “Saturday Night Live” would make “Laugh-In” look old-fashioned. But by that year Goldie Hawn was appearing in Hal Ashby’s great movie “Shampoo” and Lily Tomlin and Henry Gibson were starring in Robert Altman’s “Nashville,” arguably one of the greatest American movies ever made.

Yesterday’s

Dear Annie: My brother was scheduled for open-heart surgery involving three different procedures. I hadn’t seen him for several months and wanted to visit before the operation, as I feared he might not make it through. The day before his surgery, my wife and I were driving the two-hour trip to his home when we received a call from his wife. She said she didn’t want us coming, that she was already stressed out and didn’t want anyone else using up the time she and her children had with my brother. I told her how much it meant to me to see him, but she said, “Don’t bother coming. My children and I don’t want you here.” My sister-in-law has always been a strong-headed woman, but this was too much. Our conversation turned into a shouting match. I was so angry and upset that I could hardly drive the car back home. I told my wife that what she did was unforgivable and I would never speak to her again. Fortunately, my brother’s surgery was a success, and he is recovering. I will see him as soon as I can, but only when his wife is not around. I will never get over what she did. How would you handle this? — Angry in NYC
