String of fatality accidents underscores randomness ————

After relative lull in 2010, 5 people have already died this year in county

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

When a piece of metal last Tuesday struck and later killed Cindy Burnett through the windshield that was supposed to protect her, the Lyndon woman became the fifth person to die on a Douglas County road so far this year.

That’s already nearly twice as many deaths than occurred in all of 2010, when three people were killed in traffic accidents in Douglas County.

Burnett also became the fourth person to die in less than two months — a period that started with a high-prof ile crossover crash April 16 on

Bike trail designed for riders to take break

Kansas Highway 10 near Eudora that killed 5-year-old Cainan Shutt and the driver of the other car. That accident has spurred a study on the safety of the median of the major commuter highway between Lawrence and the suburban Kansas City area.

But at this point, the number of traffic deaths in Douglas County so far this year doesn’t seem to be approaching a record, compared with two decades worth of Kansas Department of Transportation data.

For example, 18 people died on Douglas County roadways in 1995, the most in statistics reviewed starting with 1990.

More recently 14 people died in

2008 and 2003, and 15 were killed in 2006 crashes.

Steven Schrock, a Kansas University assistant professor of civil engineering, said it’s not uncommon for a few fatality crashes in one area to occur with a short time after a long period when there are zero or very few, which can cause emotional reactions from the public.

“They’re random by definition,” said Schrock, who studies highway safety.

He said state transportation officials must examine several years worth of data to determine trends about safety on specific roadways, which is what Gov.

DOUGLAS COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPUTIES investigate a vehicle that was struck by a piece of metal that flew off another vehicle. Cindy Burnett, 48, of Lyndon, was killed in the accident on the South Lawrence Trafficway last Tuesday.

Greensburg has advice for towns torn up by tornadoes: Be patient GREENSBURG (AP) — Officials in the south-central Kansas town of Greensburg, which was nearly wiped out by a tornado four years ago, have some advice for other tornado-ravaged towns: Take time rebuilding.

Greensburg hosted a meeting Thursday with representatives from Tuscaloosa, Ala., and the eastern Kansas town of Reading.

An April tornado killed 43 people in Tuscaloosa. Last month, a tornado hit Reading, killing one resident and damaging 200 homes.

The visitors spent two days in Greensburg last week to see how the town recovered after a May 2007 tornado destroyed most of Greensburg’s infrastructure and homes and left 11 dead. The visitors have toured rebuilding

Accidents CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Sam Brownback has requested KDOT do when studying whether to place a cable barrier on the K-10 median.

Kim Qualls, a KDOT spokeswoman, said the state looks at trends for accidents on specific roadways and by the type of cause, such as inattentive driving or crossmedian crashes.

“That’s why we review every situation. We look at all the details,” she said.

All of the fatality accidents in Douglas County this year have occurred on different roads: ● Kyle Snyder, 22, of rural Lecompton, died Feb. 4 in icy conditions when his pickup truck collided with an oncoming train in a crossing at East 950 Road. ● Cainan Shutt and Ryan Pittman, 24, both of Eudora, died in the April 16 crash when Pittman’s eastbound car crossed the median and struck the minivan Shutt was riding in with his grandparents and sister, who were all injured.

The final autopsy report is not yet complete, but the Kansas Highway Patrol is investigating whether Pittman’s drug use could have contributed to his reaction time. ● Terry S. Star, 37, of Ottawa, died when his vehicle rolled early on May 18 off of U.S. Highway 59 about 5 miles south of Lawrence and into a field west of the highway. ● Cindy Burnett was riding in the passenger seat about noon Tuesday when her husband was driving the vehicle on the South Lawrence Trafficway north of Clinton Parkway, and she was struck by a metal object.

Sheriff ’s officers last week were still investigating the case and trying to find the driver of a dark-colored oncoming pickup truck hauling a trailer with a piece of heavy equipment because officers believed the driver did not know the metal object came from the trailer.

Beyond studying the safety of certain stretches of road, Qualls said KDOT also looks at certain types of crashes for trends.

According to KDOT statistics, the type of accident that killed Burnett on Tuesday is relatively rare on Kansas roads when compared with the total number of crashes.

For example, 73 loss-of-cargo accidents were reported statewide in 2009, out of 61,145 total crashes. In all lossof-cargo crashes reported from 1990 to 2010, eight people died.

Alain Deroulette, a Lawrence resident who is a self-employed painter, said Burnett’s tragic death is a good reminder for all drivers to secure items, especially in pickup trucks. He says he sees objects falling in the road often and luckily there are no injuries or major damage.

“It’s incredible how often it happens, and we don’t hear about it,” Deroulette said.

Qualls said crash statistics can bring about certain educational campaigns as well, like against texting and driving or reminding drivers to be extra careful to secure objects in their vehicles.

“We all need reminders,” Qualls said. “And it’s important that we keep those educational messages out there as well as new ones.”

THE MISSOURI RIVER, seen running between South Sioux City, Neb., left, and Sioux City, Iowa, right, continues to rise, overflowing its banks as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers continues to increase the flow of water through dams in South Dakota. The river could rise to its highest level in almost 60 years.

Along Missouri River, towns pray that levees will hold ————

Several breaches reported; flooding this year could be worse than 1993 The Associated Press

Six hundred residents in southwest Iowa were ordered Sunday to evacuate their homes after the Missouri River breached a levee across the border in Missouri.

The evacuation covers nearly half of the town of Hamburg, said Stefanie Bond, spokeswoman for the Iowa Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management. Residents, most of them on the south side of the city of 1,141, were being told to get out within 24 hours.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reported a levee was breached Sunday morning south of Hamburg in Missouri’s Atchison County. The corps’ Col. Robert Ruch said crews had been working Saturday on another issue near the breach and all workers were evacuated.

Gen. Derek Hill, head of the Iowa Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management, characterized the breach as a “boil” — a leak that “shoots out like a small geyser” — that was 1 inch to 1 1/2 inches in diameter.

Iowa sent a Blackhawk helicopter Sunday to drop roughly 1,000-pound sandbags on the levee, Hill said, adding it was too dangerous to use ground crews. It was not known how long the work would take.

“It’s a technique that’s been used before by the corps,” he said. “There’s no guarantees but we hope it will (work).”

Rhonda Wiley, emergency

Towns in peril In South Dakota, the Army Corps of Engineers began construction of a backup levee Sunday to protect the town of Dakota Dunes. Corps engineer LeeJay Templeton said the 1.4-mile long secondary levee is slated to be completed by Thursday.

The Missouri River was expected to rise about 8 feet to 1,098 feet above sea level

by June 14 in the city of about 2,500 people, some of whom have evacuated ahead of the planned crest. Officials said construction of the primary levee is still under way to protect the city 2 feet beyond the projected high level.

The levee leak affecting Hamburg is about five miles southwest of the city. Hill said that because the land is flat, any water pouring through will back up into Hamburg.

Last week, Bond said Hamburg residents were told not to rely on the levee to protect the city. Fremont County offi-

cials requested 130,000 sandbags from the corps.

‘Historic event’ This year could be one of the wettest on record in the Missouri River basin, according to the corps. Officials are predicting record river flows and large releases from reservoirs in the Dakotas because of steady spring rain and above-normal snowpack. The corps has warned that the overflowing river isn’t likely to crest until mid- to late June and water will remain high for weeks or even months.

As a result of the increased releases, the Missouri River is predicted to rise 5 to 7 feet above flood stage and spill over its banks in numerous spots along Iowa and Nebraska before heading into Missouri.

“This really is an historic event,” said Jody Farhat, who leads the Corps’ Water Management Division in Omaha, Neb. The only time the river has been higher in the past six decades was in 1952. During that flood, the river crested above 44 feet at Sioux City, and above 40 feet at Omaha.

This summer, the river is expected to reach as high as 37 feet at Sioux City and 36 feet at Omaha.

Precise comparisons between this year and 1952 are difficult because five major dams have been built since then and the Missouri River was dredged to make it 8 to 10 feet deeper. ● Missouri has suffered string of disasters this spring. Page 5A

Tuscaloosa’s director of planning and development, agreed that rebuilding was a complex issue. People want to get businesses up and operating and the city wants the employment. But it is a delicate balance to see, with planning, what could develop, he said.

“It’s human nature to want to get back to normalcy to where you were the day before the storm,” McConnell said. “But we have to adjust to a new normal."

management director for Atchison County, Mo., said another nearby levee had a similar break Saturday, but Wiley said crews were able to repair it. She said levees along the Missouri River have been weakened by the river’s recent high water levels.

“We anticipate these compromises rearing their ugly heads all up and down the levee system throughout this event,” Wiley said Sunday.

“It’s not a pretty picture. But today nobody appears to be in imminent danger at this moment.”

State warns of tobacco sticks

1 | ISLAMABAD

24 dead after bombings A suicide bomber attacked a bakery in Pakistan’s northwest, killing 18 people, and another bomb in the volatile region left six others dead. The attacks were the latest in a wave of bloodshed to hit Pakistan since the U.S. raid that killed al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden.

Also Sunday, a Pakistani security official said authorities were nearly certain that a recent U.S. missile strike killed al-Qaida commander Ilyas Kashmiri.

The suicide bomber struck the bakery in a neighborhood where army personnel live in the town of Nowshera, police said. At least two soldiers were among the dead.

The attacker was a young man carrying around 18 pounds of explosives. The blast caused some gas cylinders in the bakery to explode, leading to a fire that left many of the 40 wounded in serious condition, said Fazal Maula, a police official.

Earlier in the day, a bomb exploded at a bus stop in the Matani area of the northwest, killing six people and wounding several others, officials said. It appeared to have been planted at the bus stop, as opposed to a suicide attack.

Sprouts likely culprit of E. coli outbreak The terrifying E. coli outbreak in Europe appears to have been caused by vegetable sprouts grown on an organic farm in Germany, an agriculture official Sunday as the toll climbed to at least 22 dead and more than 2,200 sickened.

Preliminary tests found that bean sprouts and other sprout varieties from the farm in the Uelzen area, between the northern cities of Hamburg and Hannover, could be traced to infections in five German states, Lower Saxony Agriculture Minister Gert Lindemann said.

Many restaurants involved in what is now the deadliest known E. coli outbreak in modern history had received deliveries of the sprouts, which are often used in salads, Lindemann spokesman Gert Hahne told The Associated Press.

Definitive test results should be available today, Lindemann said.

MICHAEL ROBBINS, LAWRENCE, RIDES for the first time on a new 1.75-mile mountain bike path in North Lawrence, between the river and the levee. The trail was recently completed by Art King and members of the Lawrence Mountain Biking Club.

New route takes mountain bicyclists off the beaten path

Several miles east of the Kansas River Bridge, a treecovered island sits squarely in the river.

It’s an island that Art King had remembered from his days of fishing the river decades ago and one he rediscovered several years back as he bushwhacked his way from a mountain bike trail to the edge of the river bank.

That day, King didn’t decide to build a trail to the picture perfect spot, but it got him thinking.

“What if there was a trail

where you could share this view with others?” he wondered.

Now there is, thanks to hundreds of hours of work from King and other volunteers with the Lawrence Mountain Bike Club.

The trail is a 1.75-mile loop that begins roughly at the 2.5mile mark on the mountain bike trails that run along the Kansas River in North Lawrence.

The intent of the new trail is to create a welcoming environment for novice mountain bike riders and to throw in enough twists to make it fun for the more experienced ones. Much of the trail was funded by a $2,500 donation from LiveWell Lawrence, which was looking

Israeli troops on Sunday battled hundreds of proPalestinian protesters who tried to burst across Syria’s frontier with the Golan Heights, killing a reported 20 people and wounding scores more in the second outbreak of deadly violence in the border area in less than a month.

The clashes, marking the anniversary of the Arab defeat in the 1967 Mideast war, drew Israeli accusations that Syria was orchestrating the violence to shift attention away from a bloody crackdown on opposition protests at home. The marchers, who had organized on Facebook, passed

by Syrian and U.N. outposts on their way to the front lines.

“It will be for someone who is fairly proficient with riding a bike, but it will be their introduction to riding on single track, natural tread, dirt trails,” King said.

Beginner mountain bikers can easily get to the trail by biking east along the levee, which is a way to avoid the more technical terrain of the mountain bike trail that starts at the boat ramp parking lot near North Eighth and Oak streets.

King discussed the art of trailmaking. “The first thing you need is a destination point, a place for the trail to go,” he said.

Health dept. concerned about appeal to youths

By Jane Stevens jstevens@ljworld.com

The state Department of Health and Environment is warning Kansans about the new tobacco sticks.

The sticks are being test-marketed in Kansas and have been sold in convenience stores since March.

The 2.5-inch birch sticks covered with finely milled tobacco are called spit-free tobacco.

KDHE on Tuesday called attention to the products on the World Health Organization’s World No Tobacco Day, because leaders say the products are too easily accessible by teens, and children can mistake them for candy.

Philip Morris is selling Marlboro Smokeless Tobacco Sticks as an alternative to cigarettes, and U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Co. is selling Skoal Smokeless Tobacco Sticks as an alternative to chewing tobacco. Both companies are owned by Altria Please see TOBACCO, page 5A

Agency seeks suggestions from public for list of native Kansas species

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

People have lived in Kansas for more than 10,000 years. So it might be surprising that we continue to find new species with which we share the land.

For instance, consider moths.

There are more than 2,000 different species of them in Kansas, and they are among the 25,000 different invertebrates that call Kansas home.

“There are a whole bunch of insect fauna out there that we are still learning about,” said Ken Brunson, wildlife diversity coordinator

843-8991

3401 W. 6th

for the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks.

As part of the process to update a statewide plan known as the Future of Kansas Wildlife, the KDWP is asking for the public’s input on a list that tracks all native species of the state.

That list is important because it is from there that the state determines what species are in the greatest need of conservation. That conservation list, which is a kind of watch list of animals whose populations could be declining, has some 300 species on it.

The species at greatest risk are given priority when the state designs wildlife conservation proj-

ects that are funded with millions of dollars in grants.

“It’s a pre-emptive strike. It’s being proactive to try to work with species while there are good populations of them and to work with to keep them from being listed as threatened and endangered species,” Brunson said.

River City Heating & Cooling 785-841-COOL (2665)

But before the state can make the Species of Greatest Conservation Need list, officials need to make sure they have a complete list of all the species that exist in Kansas.

Keeping an updated list is harder than you’d think.

For example, DNA and genetic testing may show that an animal many thought to be one species is actually the result of two different ones.

Research, such as the work being done on moths, reveals new species.

And there can be birds spotted that haven’t ever been sighted in Kansas before.

Along with having 25,000 differ-

ent kinds of invertebrates, Kansas has more than 700 different kinds of birds, fish, amphibians, reptiles and mammals.

“We want to make sure we don’t miss any important ones,” Brunson said.

If you know about a species that the KDWP doesn’t, comment on its website at kdwp.state.ks.us/news/otherservices/Kansas-CWCP/KansasCWCP-Updates-and-Revisions.

The KDWP is taking recommendations until July 1.

LJWORLD.COM/BLOTTER

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT • Former Kansas football player Elvis Patterson was arrested in Douglas County on Kansas Highway 10 early Saturday morning on charges of driving under the influence. He was released on $250 bail and is scheduled to appear in court at 3 p.m. June 17.

The 51-year-old Patterson, who currently resides in Lenexa, played for KU as a defensive back and defensive end from 1981 to 1983. He went on to play in the NFL and was on two Super Bowl champion teams, Super Bowl XXI with the New York Giants and Super Bowl XXVIII with the Dallas Cowboys.

• Multiple gunshots were reported outside The Cave nightclub at The Oread, 1200 Oread Ave., early Sunday morning.

Officers responded to the scene around 2:15 a.m.

According to Lawrence Police Sgt. Kirk Fultz, nobody was injured and police did not make any arrests. Fultz also said police did not find any bullet holes. The incident is still under investigation.

According to Journal-World blogger Operation 100, emergency dispatch scanner traffic reported a shooter driving by and firing a rifle into a crowd outside the nightclub. No vehicle or suspect description has been given.

As of 3 p.m. on Sunday, there were no updates released by police, and more information probably wouldn't be available until today, Fultz said.

• Eudora police were led on a high-speed chase early Sunday morning and eventually lost sight of the vehicle after it crossed into Leavenworth County.

Eudora police attempted to pull over a vehicle in the 1000 block of Main Street around 3 a.m. after the vehicle failed to yield, according to Douglas County emergency dispatch.

The pursuit continued into Leavenworth County, where police eventually lost the vehicle.

Eudora police were not able to provide any additional information about the incident. A spokesperson from the Leavenworth County Sheriff’s Office said their agency was involved, but also could not provide additional details.

According the Journal-World blogger Operation 100, emergency dispatchers reported that suspect vehicle was a red SUV with a Florida license plate.

ACCIDENTS • A man was transported via air ambulance to the Kansas University Hospital after falling from a third-story balcony of an apartment complex in the 3600 block of Clinton Parkway in Lawrence at 9:55 p.m. Sunday, according to Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Division Chief Lyle Schwartz.

MISSOURI

Disastrous spring tough on residents, economy

By David A. Lieb Associated Press Writer

JEFFERSON CITY, MO. — First a tornado tore through the St. Louis airport. Then rising waters swamped small towns and flooded miles of fertile farmland along the Mississippi River. Then the nation’s deadliest tornado in six decades ripped apart the city of Joplin.

Thirty days of destruction in Missouri. Billions of dollars of damage. And it may not be done, as communities along the Missouri River from St. Joseph to St. Louis brace for a new round of flooding.

The economic aftershocks of Missouri’s spring of disasters may be felt for years, even by many who weren’t personally affected by the storms. Insurance premiums are likely to increase for home and vehicle owners.

Restaurants and retail shops are likely to see lower sales in southeast Missouri. Utility rates are likely to rise in the southwestern part of the state. And Missouri’s budget — already out of balance — now is tens of millions of dollars deeper in the hole, which could lead to more cuts to government services and schools.

“It’s not just the loss of lives, but this is a horrible economic blow to the state of Missouri,” said state House Speaker Steven Tilley, a Republican whose home district is near the Mississippi River.

Missouri may be an extreme example. But it’s far from alone in a spring of brutal weather.

Tornadoes have wreaked havoc from Alabama to Massachusetts, while floods have inundated states from Montana to Louisiana. The recent Joplin tornado and a series of twisters that ravaged the South in late April caused a combined insurance loss of up to $8 billion, according to preliminary estimates from

STORM DAMAGE IS SEEN NEXT TO A PARKING GARAGE outside terminal one at St. Louis International Airport in St. Louis in this April 22 file photo. A month packed with tornadoes and flooding has caused billions of dollars of damage in Missouri, And the economic aftershocks may be felt for years.

Eqecat, a firm that analyzes the effect of catastrophes for insurers and government agencies.

Even before the recent flooding in the West and upper Midwest, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said about 6.8 million acres had been flooded this year — an area equivalent to the entire state of Massachusetts.

One recent day, highway engineer Richard Wallace drove his four-wheel drive truck down the gravel of Mississippi County Road 310 in southeast Missouri to survey the damage from receding floodwaters. He was forced to stop.

“I’m looking at a section right now that looks like part of the Grand Canyon,” said an amazed Wallace, staring at a gaping crevice in the road.

“It’s just unreal.”

In Mississippi County, where the corps blew open the Birds Point levee to relieve flooding pressure on nearby Cairo, Ill., local officials estimated the water may have caused $75 million in damage to roads, bridges and public infrastructure. Flooding also wiped out about half of the county’s farm acreage — a particularly severe blow

for an area that ranks among Missouri’s leading wheat and soybean producers and whose economy depends on agriculture. Missouri Farm Bureau President Blake Hurst says 570,000 acres of cropland have been flooded, costing Missouri farmers anywhere from $150 million to $400 million.

Less money for farmers also means less money for retailers, restaurant owners and just about everyone else in the region. The flooding is projected to reduce sales revenues by $93 million in Mississippi County alone — a decline of about 14 percent, said Bruce Domazlicky, director of the Center for Economic and Business Research at Southeast Missouri State University.

In Joplin, a powerful tornado that killed at least 141 people also damaged about 18,000 vehicles, more than 8,000 homes and 500 commercial properties. Among the buildings damaged was a hospital that employed 1,700 people.

Ten days after the Joplin tornado, the state said major insurance companies already had received 17,000 claims, a figure that’s likely to rise.

Path CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Once King found a destination point, he worked to create a path. At first his only access to the area was on deer trails. Slowly the retired Olathe firefighter flagged out a route that was bike-friendly and then cleared the path with a mower and chain saw.

A big hurdle was cleared on May 14 when 32 volunteers spent a day to completely open up the path. After the five-hour work day, King biked the first loop that afternoon with two mountain bike buddies.

“It was pretty rewarding after two years of working on it and maybe a year before that just dreaming about it,” King said.

The trail goes through a canopy of trees, open grasslands and along the river bank. A bench made of a sycamore tree and old plastic bucket marks the view of the island that so inspired King.

“For the people starting out, it’s a good place to take a break,” King said.

The trail has enough turns so no one can go too fast, which will help make beginner mountain bike riders more comfortable. For those looking for more of a chal-

Group, according to the Wall Street Journal, which did a story in February about plans to market the sticks in Kansas.

“As the state’s health agency, KDHE is particularly concerned about the potential appeal of these new tobacco sticks to youth,” KDHE Secretary Dr. Robert Moser said. “The packages are so small that they could easily be concealed in a shirt or pants pocket and youth could use tobacco sticks in front of parents or teachers while appearing to have a simple toothpick in their

lenge, several log ramp obstacles are already under construction and sit just off to the side of the trial.

As he designed the trail, King mapped it so riders would have to navigate through narrow openings in trees and pedal through what he calls mini-half pipes.

“The mix of novice riders and more experienced riders is not going to be a conflict.

They will blend together because everyone is going to be moving slow,” King said.

Along the existing mountain bike trails, signs indicate where bikers should enter.

Signs still need to be put in place along the levee, but King is waiting for the trail to become a little more refined before inviting beginner mountain bike riders to venture onto the course. As of Sunday, ropes were temporarily put up to close off the

far end of the trail due to high water in the river.

He encourages experienced trail riders and runners to start using the trail, which will help get it in shape.

One stormy afternoon last week, several mountain bikers were already pedaling their way through groves of trees.

“I love the new trail,” said Forest Miller, a Linwood resident who bikes the river trails several times a week.

“It’s a good heart-rate getter, a good little workout.”

Shortly after Miller rode through, another group of mountain bikers could be heard in the distance, clearly enjoying one of the challenges King had built into the trail.

“That is why I do this, the smiles and hollers,” King said.

mouth. We are also concerned about the risk of young children accidentally ingesting these products.”

They look like chocolatecovered sticks, and, according to the KDHE, taste like candy. Both brands are being sold in four flavors: rich tobacco sticks, original tobacco sticks, mint tobacco sticks and smooth mint tobacco sticks. They come in packs of 10 sticks.

Besides the adverse health effects of the sticks, KDHE staff are worried that children, if they find the sticks, will ingest them and suffer nicotine poisoning. The estimated minimal lethal pediatric dose is 1 mg of nicotine per 2. 2 pounds of body weight, according to KDHE.

Eating just 1 mg will cause a child to become nauseous and start vomiting. The nicotine content of the Marlboro and Skoal sticks isn’t known, but Camel, which has been marketing dissolvable sticks, lozenges and tongue strips for a couple of years, packs 3.1 mg of nicotine into each stick.

A smoker typically takes in about 1 mg of nicotine per cigarette.

Good Housekeeping put out a video about the Camel products when they were first being sold.

If you smoke and want to quit, or are an organization that wants information about how to help people quit smoking, call the Kansas Tobacco Quitline 1-800QUIT-NOW (784-8669).

— Reporter Christine Metz can be reached at 832-6352.

Eqecat estimates there are up to $3 billion of insured losses in Joplin. Historically, insurance premiums often have risen in areas hit by catastrophic events as insurers update their risk models used to set rates.

Until the Joplin tornado, Missouri’s single largest insurance catastrophe in the past decade was an April 2001 hail storm in the St. Louis area that caused about $700 million in damage, said Brent Butler, government affairs director for the Missouri Insurance Coalition. In the following two years, the average homeowners’ insurance premium in Missouri shot up 29 percent, according to figures provided by the state insurance department.

The Joplin tornado “could have an effect on everybody’s insurance rates eventually — but it will be eventually, and I wouldn’t call it dramatic,” Butler said.

If tornadoes result in premium increases for hard-hit states such as Missouri and Alabama, “the good thing is, because everybody is going to pay more, maybe it’s not much more,” said Erwann Michel-Kerjan, managing director of the Risk Management and Decision Processes Center at the University of Pennsylvania.

Electricity rates also are likely to rise as a result of the tornado. The Empire Electric District Co, which serves about 150,000 people in southwest Missouri, figures the tornado caused $20 million to $30 million in damage to its infrastructure and wiped out 10 percent to 15 percent of customer demand for electricity.

Solicitation “ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

donations and grants in 2009.

The funds are used for programs all over the world, from education programs in Guatemala to disaster relief in tornado-ravaged Joplin, Mo. Laurie Styron, an analyst for the American Institute of Philanthropy, said her organization has performed an analysis of Save the Children’s financial statements.

They’ve found the group is very efficient with its money, as 89 percent of funding collected goes to services.

“They actually get an ‘A’ from us,” she said.

But that’s not the whole story, said Styron, citing some concerns specifically about how the group is raising funds in Lawrence.

The workers are paid by an outside contract agency hired by Save the Children, according to the organization’s spokesman, Steven Fisher.

That type of fundraising isn’t very cost-effective, Styron said, because the money donated goes to cover the wages of the workers first, then to the contractor, then to Save the Children. If someone gave to the charity directly — online for instance — more money goes to the charity.

“Sometimes they even lose money,” Styron said. “This charity is breaking even. If they’re lucky.”

Fisher said Save the Children hadn’t heard complaints about the soliciting in Lawrence but said the organization is sensitive to local concerns.

“We want to know” if there are problems, he said. “We want to make sure we’re working in the community in a way that everyone’s happy.”

We want to make sure we’re working in the community in a way that everyone’s happy.”

— Save the Children spokesman Steven Fisher City code issues Nonprofits, or people in general, don’t need a specific license to solicit money on public property, said Toni Wheeler, attorney for the city of Lawrence. Legally, the practice is no different from panhandlers who ask for money. And though the city has heard complaints about both, making any changes to the city code that would prohibit soliciting is an uphill First Amendment battle.

“It’s constitutionally protected conduct,” Wheeler said. City officials looked at requiring panhandlers to get soliciting licenses back in 2009, but legal research highlighted some of those constitutional issues. “It’s difficult to regulate First Amendment speech.”

In 2006 the city enacted an ordinance outlawing “aggressive panhandling,” which prohibits behavior such as panhandling within 20 feet of an ATM, blocking someone’s path, or using verbal or physical threats. It is also illegal to panhandle on private property.

BRIEFLY Palin: I didn’t ‘mess up’ Paul Revere history WASHINGTON — Sarah Palin insisted Sunday that history was on her side when she claimed that Paul Revere’s famous ride was intended to warn both British soldiers and his fellow colonists.

“You realize that you messed up about Paul Revere, don’t you?” “Fox News Sunday” anchor Chris Wallace asked the potential 2012 presidential candidate.

“I didn’t mess up about Paul Revere,” replied Palin, a paid contributor to the network.

“Part of his ride was to warn the British that were already there. That, hey, you’re not going to Palin succeed.

You’re not going to take American arms. You are not going to beat our own well-armed persons, individual, private militia that we have,” she added. “He did warn the British.”

Palin, who again said she has not decided whether to run for president, was asked about the Revolutionary War hero during a stop Thursday in Boston on her East Coast bus tour.

“He who warned the British that they weren’t gonna be takin’ away our arms by ringing those bells, and makin’ sure as he’s riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be sure and we were going to be free, and we were going to be armed.”

Wounded leader departs, setting off celebrations

YEMENI ARMY SOLDIERS, LIFTED BY ANTI-GOVERNMENT PROTESTERS, react as they celebrate President Ali Abdullah Saleh's departure to Saudi Arabia, in Sanaa, Yemen, on Sunday. Thousands of protesters are dancing and singing in the Yemeni capital Sanaa after the country's authoritarian leader flew to Saudi Arabia to receive medical treatment for wounds he suffered in a rocket attack on his compound.

“Saleh will come back.

Saleh is in good health, and he may give up the authority one day but it has to be in a constitutional way,” al-Janadi said. “Calm has returned.

Coups have failed. ... We are not in Libya, and Saleh is not calling for civil war.”

His sudden departure raised many questions, including whether his Saudi hosts want him to return. The Saudis have backed Saleh and cooperated in confronting alQaida and other threats, but they are now among those pressing him to give up power as part of a negotiated deal.

Saudi Arabia has watched with concern the anti-government protests that have spread to other neighboring countries like Bahrain and is

eager to contain the unrest on its doorstep.

An opposition party official said Sunday that international mediators, including the United States and Saudi Arabia, tried to get Saleh to sign a presidential decree passing power to his vice president before he left for Saudi Arabia — a strong indication that they are trying to push Saleh from power permanently.

Saleh refused to sign the declaration, offering only a verbal agreement, but the negotiations delayed his departure, the official said.

A foreign diplomat involved in Saleh’s trip confirmed the story. Both spoke on condition of anonymity in order to discuss private talks.

Indiana abortion debate could cost state $4.3 billion in Medicaid funds

Unofficial count in Peru shows win for leftist LIMA, PERU — Unofficial results showed leftist military man Ollanta Humala narrowly winning Sunday’s bitterly contested presidential runoff against the daughter of disgraced former President Alberto Fujimori after promising the poor a greater share of Peru’s mineral wealth.

Results announced by the independent election watchdog group Transparencia gave Humala 51.3 percent of the vote against 48.7 percent for Keiko Fujimori with more than 90 percent of the ballots counted. The error margin was 1 percentage point.

Official results were not expected until later Sunday night, but Transparencia’s track record in previous elections is solid.

Gates: U.S. support troops should be sent home first

SANAA, YEMEN — The departure of Yemen’s battlewounded president for treatment in Saudi Arabia set off wild street celebrations Sunday in the capital, where crowds danced, sang and slaughtered cows in hopes that this spelled a victorious end to a more than threemonth campaign to push their leader from power.

Behind the festive atmosphere, many feared Ali Abdullah Saleh, a masterful political survivor who has held power for nearly 33 years, will yet return — or leave the country in ruins if he can’t. Hanging in the balance was a country that even before the latest tumult was beset by deep poverty, malnutrition, tribal conflict and violence by an active alQaida franchise with international reach.

Saleh, who was taken overnight to a military hospital in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, underwent successful surgery on his chest to remove jagged pieces of wood that splintered from a mosque pulpit when his compound was hit by rockets on Friday, said medical officials and a Yemeni diplomat. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they did not have permission to Drugs in studies boost release the information.

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -WORLD

— Christopher Arterton, professor of political management at George Washington University and expert on federal-state issues $4. 3 billion in Medicaid money to strike a blow for the right-to-life movement?

Some conservative members of Republican-controlled legislatures argue it’s time for states to risk serious penalties to defend their principles and throw off federal mandates. And the Medicaid program, with its rising costs and strict rules, has been a particular target of ire.

Is the Obama administration actually willing to leave low-income families without health care to punish a defiant state?

“Like any game of chicken, it’s about who blinks first,” said Ed Haislmaier, senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation’s Center for Health Policy, a conservative think-tank.

Planned Parenthood has filed suit to challenge Indiana’s law, so the courts could have a say in how the dispute is resolved.

The Obama administration directed Indiana this week to drop its ban on Planned Parenthood, which the legislature passed this spring after becoming considerably more Republican and conservative in last fall’s midterm election. The Department of Health and Human Services said the state cannot legally pick and choose which agencies provide health care to people

covered by the federal-state program. The warning letter cited a federal statute that directs the withholding of all Medicaid funding from a state if it violates federal law.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said this week that 19 states have gotten into disputes with the Obama administration over health care funding, and all amended their plans to keep their money. He said he expects Indiana to do the same.

Arizona reversed course last year after HHS threatened to withhold money because the state had frozen its children’s health program.

Some Republican lawmakers in Texas also proposed dropping out of the Medicaid program this year but backed away because of the financial impact.

Republican lawmakers in Indiana are refusing to back down.

“Indiana’s on solid legal ground,” said state Sen. Scott Schneider, an Indianapolis Republican who sponsored the measure to cut off Planned Parenthood.

“There’s no reason for us to change course at this time.”

Indiana conservatives are clearly hoping the administration will blink if it comes to cutting off health insurance for poor people. The money pays for all kinds of routine health care.

FORWARD OPERATING BASE WALTON , A FGHANISTAN — A soon-to-begin U.S. troop withdrawal from Afghanistan should leave combat power intact as long as possible to press an anti-Taliban offensive, U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Sunday. He said support troops should go first.

On his final trip to assess a war in its 10th year, Gates told soldiers the endgame in Afghanistan is more likely to turn out well if the drawdown promised by President Barack Obama begins with an emphasis on removing noncombat forces rather than the infantry and others still trying to cement recent gains against a resilient Taliban.

“If it were up to me, I would leave the shooters for last,” he said.

The f inal decision is Obama’s. The commander in chief soon will receive from Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan, a range of options on how to begin the withdrawal in July and how to pace it over perhaps 18 to 24 months, Gates said at this dusty logistics base in Kandahar province.

Obama planned to gather his national security team today for his monthly meeting on Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Military commanders typically want to keep as much firepower at their disposal as they can, for as long as they can, to achieve their mission.

In the case of Afghanistan, the White House wants to

ensure that the president’s oftrepeated promise to begin a withdrawal in July yields more than a token Gates gesture. The war has grown increasingly unpopular in Congress.

Gates met with Petraeus shortly after he arrived in Kabul on Saturday. Both men will soon end their tenures.

Gates retires June 30.

Petraeus has been nominated to be the next CIA director, replacing Leon Panetta, whom Obama has chosen to succeed Gates at the Pentagon.

Gates said the main purpose of his visit was to deliver his personal thanks to troops. At each encounter Sunday, as he mentioned his gratitude for their efforts and the sacrifices of their families, he choked up.

“You all will be in my thoughts and prayers every day for the rest of my life,” he said in a shaky voice to a group of several hundred soldiers and Marines at Camp Dwyer, an outpost on a bleak patch of Helmand province.

Gates said Obama’s Cabinet has yet to begin a formal discussion of how to proceed with the planned troop withdrawal.

It has not even been decided, he said, whether Obama will announce only the number of troops to go home in July or whether he also will set a departure timeline, over a longer period, for all 30,000 of the extra troops that he sent to Afghanistan in 2010.

Work experience Summer jobs can teach teens many lessons they may not learn in school.

I

n a recent column for the Journal-World, former Kansas University Chancellor Gene Budig made the case that public schools in America should strongly consider lengthening their school year. Nationwide, only about a fourth of teens will be able to find summer jobs, he noted, and their time might be better spent in the classroom.

A longer school year probably would pay off educationally, but it would be too bad for youngsters to lose the experience of holding a summer job.

Whether it is working 9 to 5 in an office or mowing lawns in the neighborhood, holding a job teaches some valuable lessons. You have to show up on time ready to take direction and complete a job to the boss’s satisfaction. Many employers say the biggest challenge to hiring good workers for full-time permanent jobs these days is finding people who will show up, with a good attitude, eager to learn and work.

People who display those attributes can be taught the specific skills required in the job, but it’s hard to teach work ethic.

It may take some effort to find a job, but according to local employment services, the outlook for teens is better this year than last. While the national jobless rate lingers at about 9 percent, as of April, Kansas had an unemployment rate of 6.3 percent, which was down from 6.8 percent in March 2011 and 7.1 percent in April 2010.

The Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department still is hiring for seasonal jobs like lifeguards and referees. Local restaurants and other service businesses often hire teens. Mowing, gardening, baby-sitting are other options. The jobs may not be glamorous but they’re a start.

For teens who can’t find a paying job, a regular volunteer job is another great choice. A number of local service agencies depend on regular volunteers. The local Roger Hill Volunteer Center noted last week that Trinity In-Home Care, LINK and CLO’s Midnight Farms all are seeking youth volunteers this summer. There’s no pay involved, but volunteer jobs provide a lot of satisfaction and teach skills that might help youngsters get paying jobs in the future.

It’s all about the experience. What students learn in the classroom is important, but holding a part-time or summer job teaches a whole different set of skills. It’s an experience every teenager should have.

Pressing questions for GOP hopefuls Even in Iowa and New Hampshire, where voters expect to meet each of the presidential candidates at least once, few people get a chance to ask them more than one question. For those of us who live elsewhere, even one question is out of the question.

But if I had a chance to pose just one, here’s the one I’d put to some of the major Republican contenders: ● Newt Gingrich, former speaker of the House: You may be one of the most important Republicans in the second half of the 20th century, having moved

David Shribman from gadfly to House speaker, even as you moved the Republicans in the House from hopeless members of an oppressed minority into a robust majority. Still, hardly any of your former colleagues — the ones who, presumably, owe you the most for their positions and influence — have given your candidacy a second thought.

By definition, leaders have to have followers, which prompts this question: Why do Republican office holders shy away from you in such numbers and with such fervor, and, to reverse the classic formulation Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. applied to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, do you combine a second-class personality with a first-class intellect? ● Mitt Romney, former governor of Massachusetts: You’re the front-runner — and you face a problem at the front of the calendar. Last time out, in 2008, Iowa smacked you down, placing you 9 percentage points behind Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas (but 12 points ahead of the eventual nominee, Sen. John McCain of Arizona, which underlines the unpredictability of the state).

Though you have high name recognition there, you are mostly known for not being enough — not conservative enough, not consistent enough, not Christian enough (which is the prejudice that dares not speak its name).

You know that a smart governor, Bill Clinton, once skipped Iowa and won the whole thing.

You might, too. But Clinton had a pretext — the presence in the race of an Iowa native son, Sen. Tom Harkin. That’s where Rep. Michele Bachmann may come in handy. Though she represents Minnesota in the House, she’s

from the aptly named Waterloo, Iowa. So: Do you compete in Iowa? ● Tim Pawlenty, former governor of Minnesota: You’re the new conservative darling, all the more alluring because you come from the state that spawned liberal darlings Hubert H. Humphrey, Walter F. Mondale and Paul Wellstone. (Not that conservatism, of the social nature, hasn’t been flourishing in the state for the past quarter-century. It’s just that few people outside Minnesota have noticed the sea change in the state that was the only one Mondale carried in 1984.)

But there remain nagging questions about your economic conservatism, underlined by the comments of former GOP Gov. Arne Carlson, who admittedly is no friend of yours. Still, you must answer this question: Did your actions as House majority leader and then as governor ease or exacerbate the current fiscal crisis in Minnesota? ● Jon M. Huntsman Jr., former governor of Utah: You’ve moved seamlessly from your role as U.S. ambassador to China into presidential candidate, following a star turn in Beijing with a star turn in Lebanon and Portsmouth, N.H. You have a facile answer, but not a thoughtful answer, to the question that is on the minds of both Democrats and Republicans: How could you serve a president as ambassador to perhaps the most important nation on Earth and then run against him for president?

Huntsman’s “disloyalty to the

president of the United States, regardless of the president or to which party the president belongs,” wrote Erick Erickson, managing editor of the conservative website RedState.com, “should not be rewarded by any patriot of this country.” ● Rick Perry, governor of Texas: You presumably know that two of the last three Republican presidents have been governors and that nine of the last 10 have been from the banks of the Ohio or west of it. You know, too, that Republicans have been the guardians of state prerogatives for the last several decades. But how does a man who believes that the federal government’s role should be minimized and that the states’ roles should be maximized explain why he wants to step away from the governor’s office in Austin — where there are no term limits — and move into the Oval Office in Washington? ● Rick Santorum, former senator from Pennsylvania, and Michele Bachmann, House member from Minnesota. You both infuriate your opponents and beguile your supporters, the former primarily social conservatives, the latter primarily economic conservatives. But with you, Mr. Santorum, having lost your re-election bid in 2006 by 18 percentage points and you, Ms. Bachmann, having run behind the GOP presidential candidate in every county in your district in 2008, how can you expect to run credible elections nationwide? ● Sarah Palin, former gover-

nor of Alaska: You’re the biggest media star in the party, with the potential of raising the most money (and the most hackles from the left), but your unpredictability may have been transformed from an asset into a disadvantage. Just last week you were on a political tour with no evident theme or purpose, except to project yourself onto the national scene. But a question lingers: Why did you resign a position of political leadership with barely any notice and no apparent reason, and if it was to influence the national debate, how have you done so? ● Ron Paul, House member from Texas. You’re the straightest shooter in this group, the truest believer, the most consistent political figure. Plus you have perhaps the most devoted core of supporters of any American political figure since Barry Goldwater — and, something that can be said for no one else listed in this column — the respect and admiration of your opponents. You’ve run for president three times now, and this question nags at you: Are you enhancing or diminishing your views by making them the basis of a presidential campaign, and do you risk becoming something of a Harold Stassen, who is remembered more for being a perennial presidential candidate than for being a creditable governor of Minnesota and president of the University of Pennsylvania?

Look, no one wants people dancing at national monuments.

Folks doing the electric slide at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial would ruin the spirit of reverence and reflection it inspires. Still, it is hard to believe we need a federal law, a court ruling or squadrons of police in order to enforce that restriction. Sadly, we have all three.

It seems that one night in April 2008, a woman named Mary Brooke Oberwetter and some friends went to the Thomas Jefferson Memorial in Washington to celebrate the third president’s 265th birthday with a silent, interpretative dance. For this, they were arrested by U.S. Park Police.

Oberwetter sued. Last month, a federal court dismissed the case, ruling the government is not required to allow “the full range of free expression” in a space built for “a solemn commemorative purpose.” A few days back, protesters took to the Memorial to dance their dissent silently.

The result is captured in videos that have gone viral. We see police pull apart a couple who are quietly swaying together. One guy who fails to respond to police orders is body slammed and appears to be choked by an officer. Another, who does comply, is nevertheless thrown to the floor by an officer and what appears to be a civilian because he moved his arms semi-rhythmically.

All of this unfolds in the shadow of Jefferson beneath this inscription: “I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

The threat of other “people’s disapproval is

usually enough to make us behave. It is not a perfect system, but it works way more often than not.”

dancing at national monuments then ensue? No. This would be unlikely for the same reason you don’t ordinarily see in public swastika T-shirts or other items that are objectionable, but arguably constitutional.

We are social creatures and, as such, typically conform to the mores and norms of our society. The threat of other people’s disapproval is usually enough to make us behave. It is not a perfect system, but it works way more often than not.

So what’s most offensive about these arrests for crimes of Terpsichore is not the insult to free expression, but the insult to common sense, the implied assumption that unless some guy waving his arms around is thrown to the ground and handcuffed, the rest of us will indulge our secret desire to do the Macarena in the temple of Lincoln.

There is something heavyhanded and totalitarian in that assumption.

Give folks a little credit. People visiting solemn public places usually require little more than a placard or two to keep them in line — certainly not the weight of federal law or a police boot.

We hear so much blather lately about the ability of the free market to regulate itself. Too bad some of us have so little respect for the ability of free people to do the same.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for June 6, 1911: YEARS “The school AGO board has fixed the IN 1911 length of the next school term at thirty-six weeks. School will commence on Sept. 11 and continue 15 weeks until December 22. Closing three days before Christmas for two weeks, it will reopen January and continue 21 weeks until May 31.”

“November is the most dangerous month for fires in Lawrence, while less occur in August than any other period of the year. This condition is easily explained by the fact that practically no stoves are burned in August … Twentyeight frame dwellings were caught on fire during the year and nineteen business buildings suffered from the same fate.”

Aspen cabins for sale, cheap (but new owners can’t stay)

History lesson Students from Janet Breithaupt’s third-grade class at Sunflower School spent part of May 13 on a field trip looking at architecture and history in Old West Lawrence, meeting Assistant City Manager Diane Stoddard, and searching Oak Hill Cemetery, which was created as a response to Quantrill’s Raid. Pictured at the James Naismith monument in Memorial Park Cemetery, from left, are Zach Peterson, Ashton Williams, Gentry Dennison and Max Northrop.

Larry Northrop submitted the photo.

ASPEN, COLO. (AP) — Aspen doesn’t usually have a problem with real estate — but public officials are struggling to get rid of three historic cabins in the area.

The city owns a vintage 1950s cabin it has tried to sell online for as low as $661. The catch? The owner has to haul the structure away from a city park where it’s sitting.

And in nearby Pitkin County forest land, the county is trying to get rid of two cabins on a parcel now owned by the U.S. Forest Service. Those cabins also need to be cleared from the area.

The city’s cabin is a holdover from the Deep Powder cabins, which were cleared a few years ago in a redevelopment. Figuring they might have historic value, Aspen officials kept two and put them for sale on an eBay-like website for excess government property.

The Aspen Daily News reports the two cabins sold for $500.99 and $661. However, the buyer of the more expensive cabin pulled out, telling the city he could not get a permit to haul the 600-squarefoot cabin across state lines.

Aspen historic preserva-

tion planner Sara Adams said the current strategy is a “sealed auction.” A classified ad listing asks interested buyers to bid what they think the cabin is worth and send the offer into City Hall. The highest bidder will get the cabin.

The auction is scheduled to end Wednesday, but the city could extend the time frame, as no bids have been received yet, Adams said.

Adams said it could cost some $10,000 to move the cabin, and the city wants to avoid having to move it to the dump.

“I’ve talked to everyone I can think of to see if anyone can use them,” she said.

The U.S. Forest Service has an unwanted cabin problem of its own not far away. The agency has two cabins about the same age on land given by Pitkin County in 2009.

One of them, the Sunnegga cabin, was built by wellknown dog sledder Stuart Mace. Starting in 1955, Mace and his Toklat huskies were featured in the television series “Sgt. Preston of the Yukon.”

Mace ran a gift shop out of the cabin in his early days, selling native-American

wares and his handmade dinosaur bone jewelry there.

Mace moved his operations out of the cabin over the years. The cabin was moved to its current site 1977.

The Forest Service considered the Sunnegga cabin as a warming hut for the Nordic ski trail that crosses the property but discarded the idea.

Pitkin County is now responsible for getting rid of the Sunnegga cabin, either by demolishing it or transporting it to another location where it could be preserved.

Dale Will, director of Pitkin County’s open space department, said the county can afford to demolish it, but not pay the $20,000 estimated cost of moving it.

The other cabin dates to the late 1940s. A history of it compiled by open space ranger Trevor Washko characterizes it as a refuge built and used by Henry Fitzpatrick, a hard-drinking and eccentric prospector, to get away from his wife in Aspen.

The Aspen Daily News reports that if buyers can’t be found for the properties, they’ll be demolished by Dec. 22.

“I would be heartsick if it comes down to a demo with the Sunnegga cabin,” Will said. “It’s just a beautiful piece of Stuart Mace’s handiwork ... But if nobody buys it, we’re going to have to do whatever we have to do to get it off there.”

BILL SELF BASKETBALL CAMP

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Kukuk’s options favorable The Major League Baseball amateur draft gets under way at 6 p.m. today, but Free State High graduate Cody Kukuk isn’t expected to get selected until Tuesday, when Rounds 2 through 30 take place.

Kukuk, a hard-throwing lefthander who features a 93 mph fastball, an even temperament and a competitive nature, already has signed a national letter of intent to play baseball at Kansas University, but the odds are against him ever throwing a pitch for the Jayhawks.

As a high school prospect, Kukuk has more leverage than a college junior and more still than a college senior. He has an attractive option — playing Big 12 baseball for the hometown university — that will enable him to be bold in contract negotiations with whichever club chooses him.

Scouts who attended Free State’s games to evaluate Kukuk privately estimated he would get chosen anywhere from the third to sixth round. Based on the 2010 draft, that means he very well could get in excess of a $500,000 signing bonus, plus a clause that guarantees his college education will be paid for by the ballclub. About half the players who sign out of high school eventually take advantage of the guaranteed free college education.

Unlike the football and basketball drafts, the most talented players don’t necessarily get picked the highest. Several ballclubs, such as the Pittsburgh Pirates, long have been known to place as high a priority on signability as playing ability.

Clubs not interested in investing huge bonuses might draft a 15th-round talent in the sixth round in order to save money. A scout might approach such a prospect, ask him and his family if he were drafted that high would he settle for a signing bonus in line with a much lower-round choice. If the answer is yes, the two parties have a wink-and-nod deal.

Word on the Major League Baseball scouting circuit is that organizations that don’t set aside much money for draft choices aren’t likely to waste a pick on Kukuk because he’ll go to KU before settling for less money than comparable prospects receive. The grapevine has it that Kukuk’s initial bonus request will be in the neighborhood of $1.2 million. That doesn’t mean he won’t negotiate down from there, but it does mean he’s not going to be susceptible to a wink-and-nod deal.

Baseball America makes available to online subscribers the signing bonuses received by draft choices through the years.

A study of 2010 draft data revealed that 78 percent of the players selected out of high school in rounds three through six signed rather than continuing their baseball careers in college. Right-hander Ryne Stanek, out of Blue Valley High in Overland Park, turned down an $850,000 bonus offer after being drafted in the third round by the Seattle Mariners. He now pitches for Arkansas.

The average bonus for high school signees by round: Round 3. $562,890.91; Round 4. $515,375; Round 5: $530,428.57; Round 6. $575,000.

Kukuk will become the second 6-foot-4 athlete from Free State High chosen in a professional sports draft in the past five-plus weeks. The Minnesota Vikings selected defensive lineman Christian Ballard with the ninth pick of the fourth round of the NFL Draft.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FRESHMAN BEN MCLEMORE, RIGHT, OBSERVES the campers during Bill Self’s basketball camp on Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse. Next to McLemore is KU junior guard Elijah Johnson.

Freshman McLemore settling in to new surroundings

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Ben McLemore, who witnessed Kansas University basketball mania for the first time at Late Night in the Phog, experienced his second dose of the craziness on Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse.

The 6-foot-5, 185-pound KU freshman shooting guard from St. 1 Louis, sat at a table for 2 ⁄2 hours, signing autographs for wave after wave of wide-eyed youngsters on hand for orientation at the fourday Bill Self basketball camp.

“The players told me how it was going to be. I didn’t believe it for real. I had to see it for myself. It’s pretty shocking, all these people wanting our autographs. It’s pretty fun,” said McL e m o re, wh o a r r ive d i n Lawrence for summer school on Saturday afternoon.

“I’m here to work hard every day, stay focused on my books.

That’s the main thing I’m going to be worrying about this summer — the books,” added McLemore, who, after being dismissed from Oak Hill Academy second semes-

ter, graduated from Houston’s Christian Life Academy.

McLemore said he finished the semester with straight A’s.

“That was a good thing, a big ol’ plus,” he said with a smile.

McLemore has arrived at KU with a reputation as a high-flying athlete with an ability to hit the deep three as well as drive the lane and baseline for vicious slams.

“My freshman and sophomore year, everybody thought all I can do is dunk, so I got my mid-range game and three-point shot consistent,” McLemore said.

“I’ll be more a slasher. I’m going to shoot, dunk on people, stuff like that.”

He said he considers himself, “a wing, a shooting guard, a slasher for real. That’s what I want to be, a slasher all over the place,” McLemore stated.

He averaged 16 points and seven boards at the Houston high school after exploding for 28.3 points and 12.7 rebounds his junior year at St. Louis’ Wellston High. His Oak Hill stats have been unavailable.

Keselowski edges Earnhardt Jr. in STP 400

By Luke Meredith Associated Press Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, KAN. — Dale Earnhardt Jr. was charging again, hoping that this time he’d come out on top in a frantic late fuelmileage battle.

But leader Brad Keselowski stretched his tank perfectly Sunday to win the Sprint Cup STP 400 race at Kansas Speedway — and extend Earnhardt’s winless streak to 106 races.

Miami prevails in huge Game 3

MIAMI’S LEBRON JAMES DUNKS in the second half against Dallas. The Heat edged the Mavs in Game 3, 88-86, on Sunday night in Dallas.

DALLAS (AP) — Dwyane Wade kept soaring and scoring, doing everything he could to get the Miami Heat a crucial win toward an NBA title.

Chris Bosh and Udonis Haslem provided the final push to seal the key victory.

Bosh made a 16-foot, go-ahead jumper from the baseline with 39.6 seconds left and Haslem pestered Dirk Nowitzki the rest of the way as the Heat held on for an 88-86 victory over the Dallas

Mavericks on Sunday night for a 2-1 lead in the NBA finals.

“This is a total win,” said Wade, who led Miami with 29 points and 11 rebounds. “You want to win the game on the defensive end of the floor and we got a stop.”

Recent history says this was a huge win for the Heat. The Game 3 winner in a tied finals has won the championship all 11 times since the 2-3-2 format began in 1985.

The Heat go into Game 4 on Tuesday night with a chance to do what they did in 2006: win it all on Dallas’ floor. They’ll need to win that game and the next, on Thursday night.

With all its star power, many expected Miami to be planning a victory parade by now, especially after a solid victory in Game 1.

Nadal beats Federer for 6th French title PARIS (AP) — Regardless of the setting or the surface, Rafael Nadal confounds Roger Federer the way no other man can.

Put the two greats of the game on opposite ends of a court in a Grand Slam final — particularly at Roland Garros, on the red clay that Nadal rules — and the one-sided nature of the rivalry grows even more pronounced.

Grinding along the baseline, using every inch of his wingspan to extend points, whipping fearsome forehands this way and that, Nadal flummoxed Federer yet again Sunday in a riveting, highlight-filled match, beating him 7-5, 7-6 (3), 5-7, 6-1 for a record-tying sixth French Open championship and 10th major title overall.

“He plays better against the better ones, and that’s what he

showed today,” said Federer, owner of 16 Grand Slam trophies.

“He’s a great champion, on clay, especially.”

There’s no question that Nadal is as good as it gets in Paris — 451 for his career, and the same number of titles there as Bjorn Borg — but the Spaniard already also has shown that he is much more than the King of Clay. And Sunday’s victory only will raise more questions about whether Federer truly deserves to be called the Greatest of All-Time if he is not even the Greatest of Right Now. Nadal leads their head-to-head series 17-8. That includes a 6-2 advantage in Grand Slam finals and a 5-0 edge at the French Open (in the 2005 semifinals, and the 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2011 finals).

COMMENTARY

Zambrano’s outburst unacceptable

By David Haugh Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Summing up the way so many people on the North Side probably felt Sunday night, Jim Hendry just sighed when he answered the phone. On the eve of Major League Baseball’s amateur draft, Hendry took precious time away from preparing for the Cubs to pick ninth overall to compare Carlos Zambrano’s shenanigans.

It has been that kind of bad-meetsworse week for the Cubs’ GM, the kind in which Zambrano has behaved as if he owns stock in Chicago sports-talk radio stations.

“You don’t want Carlos to break his bat over his knee in frustration with himself (as Zambrano did Tuesday night) and risk getting hurt, but if it’s not directed at his teammates, I’m OK with that from time to time,” Hendry said in a phone interview from Arizona. “But what I’m not OK with is calling out teammates publicly, and even privately if somebody’s giving their best effort.”

Hendry stressed that he was in draft meetings all day and didn’t hear about Zambrano ripping closer Carlos Marmol or calling the Cubs “a Triple-A team” after a 3-2 loss in 10 innings to the Cardinals. By 9:30 Sunday evening, Hendry had yet to speak with manager Mike Quade about the incident, which he planned to address first thing this morning.

But judging from the tone of Hendry’s voice and the way he has handled similar outbursts by Zambrano and Milton Bradley, I would be surprised if this deed went unpunished. Nothing from Hendry’s track record with discipline suggests it will.

When Zambrano went ballistic against former teammate Derrek Lee in the dugout at U.S. Cellular Field last June, Hendry suspended him and ordered anger-management classes. When Milton Bradley ripped fans and the team environment at the end of the 2009 season, it was his last act as a Cub. Will it be Zambrano’s? Hendry refused to speculate on the options he will consider until he discussed the matter with Quade after a good night’s sleep.

“I see it as the height of frustration,” Hendry said. “Obviously Marmol has done a tremendous job for a long time. He had a bad week, and unfortunately Zambrano was the victim of that and it cost him a couple victories. (But) Carlos’ is not behavior I would ever condone. You have to be a good teammate in these situations.

When times are the toughest, you have to be above that, and he clearly wasn’t today.”

No, Zambrano was the same immature hothead he swore he wouldn’t be again.

I understand why Hendry needs to gather information and sort through issues related to the players association.

But if it were me, after severing all ties with whatever therapist signed off on Zambrano’s anger management last July, the Cubs’ next move seems easy. Suspend Zambrano as long as it takes Hendry to find a trade partner willing to take on a contract scheduled to pay the pitcher $18 million in 2012 with a player option in 2013. If it takes all season for a Cubs team already out of contention, so be it.

Zambrano is making Quade look like an enabler. He risks doing more harm off the mound for a young, impressionable team than good on it — and he’s the Cubs’ best pitcher.

Zambrano belittling teammates in a selfish outburst should have emptied whatever was left in Chicago’s well of patience with the overpriced prima donna.

numbers and asked for an assessment, Nadal replied: “Well, it means I can play well, too.”

“When you talk about these statistics, when you try and make these comparisons, really it’s not very interesting to me,” continued Nadal, who would have ceded the No. 1 ranking to Novak Djokovic with a loss Sunday. “I’m very happy with what I have, with who I am. I’m not the best player in the history of tennis. I think I’m among the best. That’s true. That’s enough for me.”

He’s rapidly gaining on Federer.

Nadal turned 25 Friday, making him about six months younger than Federer was when the Swiss star collected his 10th major title.

This was their first meeting in a Grand Slam final in more than two years.

WEST DES MOINES, IOWA — Bob Gilder rolled in a 30-foot birdie putt on No. 18, then watched Mark Brooks bogey the hole to escape with a one-stroke victory Sunday in the Principal Charity Classic.

Brooks seemed assured of his first victory in seven starts on the Champions Tour when he led by three strokes with four to play. But he hit into the water on 17 and needed a nifty putt just to make bogey, then three-putted on 18 to hand the title to Gilder, who also won this tournament in 2002.

Noren wins Wales by two shots NEWPORT, WALES — Unheralded Swede Alexander Noren captured his second European Tour title by winning the Wales Open on Sunday, shooting a 1-under 70 for a twostroke victory.

The 127th-ranked Noren finished at 9-under 275 at Celtic Manor, where he’d led since the second round.

NBA Pistons fire coach Kuester DETROIT — The Detroit Pistons fired coach John Kuester on Sunday, four days after Tom Gores completed an agreement to buy the team from Karen Davidson.

Kuester was 57-107 over two seasons with Detroit, which failed to make the postseason in consecutive years for the first time since missing the playoffs three straight times from 1993-95. This past season was a dreary one, with the proud franchise making more news for internal squabbling than any on-court accomplishments.

Matsuzaka spoke Sunday for the first time since the Red Sox placed him on the 60-day disabled list so he can have Tommy John surgery, likely this week.

Matsuzaka is in the fifth year of a six-year deal he signed when Boston brought him over from Japan. With a recovery time of 12 to 14 months, his future with Boston is uncertain.

Stricker holds on; Woodland sixth

GOLF Long putt gives Gilder trophy

SPORTS ON TV TODAY

| SPORTS WRAP |

DUBLIN, OHIO — Steve Stricker finally found the winning formula at the Memorial on Sunday.

Stricker, who had never finished in the top 10 in his 11 previous trips to Muirfield Village, built a big lead with more flawless golf on the front nine, then relied on his silky putting stroke for two clutch pars to hang on for a one-shot victory.

He closed with a 4-under 68, lagging from 20 feet for a two-putt bogey on the 18th hole. By then, the hard Stricker work was over. Stricker twice saved par from bunkers on the 16th and 17th holes, making putts of 15 feet and 7 feet to go to the last hole with a two-shot lead.

“It wasn’t pretty,” Stricker said to tournament host Jack Nicklaus walking off the 18th green.

The biggest consolation prize went to former Kansas University standout Gary Woodland, who had a 68 to finish alone in sixth.

Woodland likely will move to about No. 40 in the world ranking, making him virtually a lock to get into the U.S. Open. He had been scheduled for a 36-hole qualifier this morning in Columbus, Ohio.

Matt Kuchar and Brandt Jobe each closed with a 65 to tie for second.

The 44-year-old Stricker moved to No. 4 in the world and became the highest-ranked American for the first time in his career. He won for the 10th time, and the seventh time since he turned his game around five years ago.

Dustin Johnson closed with a 65 to finish fourth, followed by Rory McIlroy (68).

Stricker, who led by four shots at the turn, made it more interesting than it needed to be, 1 especially after a 2 ⁄2-hour storm delay that slowed his momentum following a spectacular bunker save behind the 12th green.

He had a three-shot lead with five holes to play when he missed a short birdie on the 14th, then pulled his tee shot into the woods on the par-5 15th to make a bogey. His lead was down to two, and he faced a tough finish.

CAMPERS WAIT IN LINE to have basketballs, shirts, posters and other items autographed by Kansas University basketball players during the Bill Self basketball camp on Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse.

Camp

“

It’s a big relief. It was a hard decision. I had difficult choices and stuff, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B people pulling me here “I’m like every other fresh- and there. It was a good man wanting to come in here decision. I’m happy I’m and work hard,” said here now, though.”

McLemore, who will be rooming this summer with sophomore walk-on Niko Roberts.

“As a freshman you know you don’t have a spot (in rotation), so you come in and work at it and get one.”

He’s willing to take his chances at a school he’s wanted to attend for some time. It just took him a little while to convince his mom, Sonya, a Missouri fan, that KU was the place to be.

“It’s a big relief,” he said of stepping on campus. “It was a hard decision. I had difficult choices and stuff, people pulling me here and there. It was a good decision. I’m happy I’m here now, though.”

His mom and two cousins drove him here Saturday from St. Louis. Sonya is totally at peace with her son choosing KU over her beloved Tigers.

“It was a good drive. I was sleeping most of the way,” said McLemore, the No. 34-rated prospect in the Class of 2011

by Rivals.com. “It got a little emotional. Every time we stopped, I talked to her about it (leaving home), about college and stuff.”

McLemore currently is joined on campus by fellow freshman Naadir Tharpe, a 6foot point guard from Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, N.H. Two other members of the freshman class, Braeden Anderson and Jamari Traylor, will be here in coming days.

“It’s nice,” McLemore said of hanging out with Tharpe.

“I’ll get real tight with him.

He’s going to be the point guard. That’s what you are supposed to do.”

Tharpe is a big fan of McLemore’s game.

“He’s definitely a great player. I’ve seen him play a couple times at Oak Hill. I played against him,” Tharpe said. “He works real hard. He can rebound the ball well. Seeing him at Oak Hill, he’s definitely improved his jump shot.”

KU junior Thomas Robinson likes what he’s seen out of both newcomers.

“I think they get along with everybody. It will be a smooth

— Freshman Ben McLemore, a St. Louis native, on picking Kansas to attend school and play college basketball transition for them,” Robinson said. “Those guys have their head on straight. They know what they want to do, come in here and work hard and that’s their main focus.

They fit right in. I think the coaches take care of that part.

They know the type of guys that will fit in with us, along with the talent.” ●

Super Mario: Tharpe grinned when he was asked if he watched former KU guard Mario Chalmers of the Miami Heat sink a big game-tying three near the end of Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

“Of course I did. Of course I did,” Tharpe said.

What was he thinking?

“KU,” Tharpe exclaimed.

The Heat ultimately lost that game against Dallas, but, helped by 12 points from Chalmers, defeated the Mavs, 88-86, in Game 3 on Sunday.

“I got a text from one of our recruits saying, ‘Do you remember him ever making another big shot like that?’’’

KU coach Bill Self said of an unnamed prospect texting him after the huge Game 2 trey from the corner.

Chalmers, of course, sent the 2008 national title game against Memphis into overtime with a three.

“That didn’t surprise me at all. Mario is a good shooter.

With the game on the line, he’s a great shooter,” Self said.

KU received some publicity near the end of Game 2. The announcers reminded the country of Chalmers’ big three versus Memphis.

“That’s cool because he made probably the biggest shot in Kansas basketball history. That’s a memory none of us will ever forget,” Self said.

K A N S A S C I T Y , M O . — It seemed as though the Kansas City Royals had a perfect chance to climb in the standings.

The Minnesota Twins came to Kauffman Stadium with the worst record in the majors and eight players, including Joe Mauer, Jason Kubel, Jim Thome and Francisco Liriano, on the disabled list. Plus, Justin Morneau and Denard Span did not play the final two games of the series because of injuries.

Instead, the Twins capped a four-game sweep of the Royals with a 6-0 victory Sunday.

Brian Duensing and Matt Capps combined on a sevenhitter, and Jason Repko drove in three runs.

“It’s a good time to take advantage and we didn’t,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “The Minnesota Twins came in here with all their stars gone, all their big players out of the lineup and kind of a mix-and-match lineup, if you will, and they kicked our tails four straight. They did it.

They came in and they weren’t playing great baseball.”

All three Twins runs in the first inning were unearned after Eric Hosmer’s throwing error to second on Alexi Casilla’s bunt.

“I was maybe just a little too aggressive right there,” said Hosmer, a rookie first baseman. “I should have taken the safe route and got the out. That’s things I’ve got to learn.”

Losing pitcher Jeff Francis (2-6) needed 29 pitches to get out of the first, but allowed just one more run and made it through seven innings.

“I wasn’t too sharp the first inning, walking two guys.

That didn’t help us,” Francis said. “After that, I was throwing strikes and getting

r 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 1 0 6

groundball outs. It’s hard for a team to play from behind a lot.

I didn’t help us out by doing that.”

Duensing (3-5) gave up six hits with one walk and four strikeouts in his longest outing of the season and avoided becoming the f irst Twins starter in four years to lose six straight decisions. The lefthander had five losses and two no-decisions since beating Cleveland on April 23.

He was replaced in the ninth by Capps.

“A really good performance

by Mr. Duensing,” Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. “With the heat out there, to last that long was pretty impressive.”

Matt Tolbert, who had two doubles on Saturday night, had a two-run triple off Jesse Chavez in the ninth.

The Twins had not recorded a four-game sweep since winning four in a row against Oakland from July 12-15, 2007.

They had not swept four from Kansas City since Aug. 3-6, 2006.

The slumping Royals managed only six runs in the four games and were shut out for the third time. They are 3-12 in their past 15 games.

Miami recovered to lead, 81-74, with 6:31 left. Everyone knew Nowitzki would drive Dallas’ rally, but it didn’t matter. He still scored 12 straight points — six free throws, a layup, a dunk and a tough jumper — tying it at 86.

The Mavericks of course went back to Nowitzki on its last two chances, and his streak ran out. He tried passing out of a Haslem-led double team and threw the ball into the stands, then hit the back iron on a jumper over Haslem as time ran out.

Haslem anticipated what Nowitzki was going to do and walked the fine line between disrupting the shot while avoiding a foul.

Repko’s first hit in 15 at-bats drove in two runs as the Twins took a 3-0 lead in the f irst inning with three unearned runs. Ben Revere, on first with a leadoff single, sped to third when Hosmer threw wildly to second on Casilla’s sacrifice bunt.

With runners at second and third, Michael Cuddyer popped out and Danny Valencia walked, loading the bases.

One run scored on Delmon Young’s f ielder’s choice grounder. Repko then delivered a two-run single up the

middle that was just barely out of second baseman Mike Aviles’ reach.

Luke Hughes doubled off Francis in the sixth inning and scored on Repko’s RBI single.

BUSCH CLEARED

Since then, Keselowski logged a third-place finish, raced his way into the AllStar race and, on Sunday, earned a victory that could help him nab a wild-card spot in the Chase to the Sprint Cup championship.

“It’s because of the bad finishes and the struggles that we had to get here that I really appreciate this win,” Keselowski said. “We’re in good shape. A few more wins like this and we can make the Chase.”

The buzz before the Sprint Cup race was about the altercation between team owner Richard Childress and Kyle Busch that followed Saturday’s Trucks Series race.

NASCAR said Kyle Busch did nothing to violate his probation.

Kyle Busch, who led 11 laps, wound up 12th after his eventful weekend.

“It was a solid day,” he said.

“Qualified up front and ran decent much of the race. We probably had a seventh or eighth-place car (Sunday) and just kind of got off fuel mileage there at the end.”

KANSAS CITY, KAN. — NASCAR cleared Kyle Busch for his role in an altercation with 65-year-old car owner Richard Childress after the Trucks Series race at Kansas Speedway.

Childress might not be so lucky.

NASCAR president Mike Helton said Sunday that Busch didn’t violate his probation during the incident Saturday night.

Busch “did nothing that would have warranted the actions of Richard Childress,” said Helton, who declined to discuss details of what occurred between the two.

Penske, including the announcement that technical Tom German was leaving the team to attend a graduate program at MIT. But Keselowski also took exception to a comment Busch made that it had been several years since he’d had a teammate capable of running the same pace as him.

●

Notes: Yost said Joakim Soria is close to reclaiming his closer’s role after two promising outings. ... The Twins are hopeful RHP Nick Blackburn, who left Saturday’s game with a stiff back, won’t miss his next start. ... Morneau was out with a sore left wrist and Span was nursing a stiff neck. ...

Morneau’s next game will be No. 1,000. ... Royals DH Billy Butler was 3-for-3 with a walk and Hosmer had a single to run his hitting streak to seven games.

Use technology to stay in touch with kids

Dear Dejected: We agree that your sons don’t call as much as they should, but there is no rule that says children must be the ones to initiate contact. We suggest you call them once a week. Send emails. Text the grandkids. Be upbeat. Plan visits. And please look into activities to keep you socially active and engaged. It sounds as if you

learned how to make healthy substitutions, such as lean turkey for ground beef. I introduced a new vegetable a month, serving it the same way once a week for four weeks. It worked.

I never once blamed the diabetes. I’d say, “We are trying new things.” Over time, we all began making better food choices. I began walking and invited my husband to come with me. As we walked, we talked about our day, the anniesmailbox@comcast.net kids, our dreams, and it will need to be less focused on turned into a nighttime ritual. your children.

Genius, fame and paranoia loom large in the thoughtful and entirely captivating documentary “Bobby Fischer Against the World” (8 p.m., HBO).

A brilliant and focused child of a single mother with a politically radical background, Brooklyn-born Bobby Fischer would seem an unlikely candidate for international fame. His single-minded dedication to the game of chess began early and by age 8, Fischer was beating much older players, sometimes challenging dozens of them at a time. The film offers a wealth of footage of the young Fischer, a curiosity for the media long before his defeat of Russian chess master Boris Spassky at the 1972 championship made him a worldwide hero.

“Fischer” does a great job of exploring the ancient game of chess and its insular society of world class champions.

It also recalls the emphasis the Soviet Union put on the game as part of its propaganda efforts.

The film’s title has more than a double meaning, spending its final half documenting Fischer’s descent into paranoia; his renunciation of his U.S. citizenship, his celebration of the 9/11 attacks, and his obsessive anti-Semitism.

The mere effort of describing Fischer’s rise and fall implies some causal link between his unique gift and his pathetic self-imposed exile. But making sense of his madness, or anyone’s mental illness, remains beyond the powers of any film, even a movie as spellbinding as “Bobby Fischer Against the World.” ● HGTV used to be the place you learned to do things yourself. Now that’s why you watch DIY. HGTV is now home to shows about passive people who have things done for them by expert celebrity hosts bearing product placements by the truckload. This trend continues with a vengeance on “HGTV’d” (8 p.m., HGTV) where a network fan gets a makeover in the form of network promotion.

But no sublimation of the personal to the corporate is more complete than “My Yard Goes Disney” (7 p.m., HGTV) a sixepisode series about folks turning the back garden into a fully licensed mini-theme park. Personally, I’d like to see a show dedicated to the people who live next door to these Disney dreams. That’s a ripe situation for a comedy. Or perhaps homicidal longings.

Tonight’s other highlights ● Gordon Ramsay returns to “MasterChef” (7 p.m., Fox). I wish he wouldn’t. ● Goren and Eames return on “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” (8 p.m., NBC). ● A bootcamp trainee falls ill on “House” (8 p.m., Fox). ● Bill Murray hosts a gathering of greats on “Eric Clapton Crossroads Guitar Festival 3” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings). ● A housewife and veteran (Catherine Bell) tries to save her kidnapped husband in the 2011 drama “Last Man Standing” (8 p.m., Lifetime). ● The new teen series “Switched at Birth” (8 p.m., ABC Family) offers a variation on an ancient theme. ● A witness needs protection on “Hawaii Five-O” (9 p.m., CBS). ● One victim leads to another on “Law & Order: Los Angeles” (9 p.m., NBC). ● Social climbing and homicide mingle on the new true life mystery series “Behind Mansion Walls” (9 p.m., Investigation Discovery).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Monday, June 6: This year, you greet many different changes.

Your ability to communicate is scrutinized, mainly by you. As a result, you decide to become a more effective conversationalist.

If you are single, you are appealing nearly the moment you are introduced to someone. Many suitors surround you. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy each other more and more. Leo is fun to be around.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ You easily could misdirect your energy. You might need to coax a partner into your way of thinking. Tonight: Avoid losing your temper.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★ Realize everyone has limits, even if you do not. See them. When determined, you could be pushed to the max. Your instincts guide you financially. Tonight: Happily moseying home.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ Your word choice lets someone know how very determined and serious you are. An issue could turn explosive if

you're not careful. Tonight: Hang out with your friends.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ Be aware of your finances when making decisions. Pick and choose how much you want to be involved with certain people and your level of commitment.

Tonight: Your treat.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★★ Others respond strongly to what seems like just you! Listen to feedback, knowing you can still dominate and not dig your heels in over issues. Tonight: Stay even.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★ Zero in on possibilities, especially financial ones. You'll come out understanding a lot more and why you need to approach a situation with a new perspective or style.

Tonight: Try an early bedtime.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★ Your friendship means much more than you realize. Try not to manipulate, and be open about what you want.

Tonight: Where your friends are.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★ Be willing to take a stand and make that difference. Not everyone can be efficient. A partner could be pushing you very hard to have what he or

she wants. Tonight: Togetherness works.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21) ★★★★ Keep reaching out for new answers. You discover the more empathetic you become, the better you understand others' views. Tonight: Read between the lines.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ You have a way of dealing with people that separates you from many.

Others seem to air out their feelings, coming to a strong conclusion but not necessarily a good result. Tonight: Accept an invitation.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★★ You might want to do something differently from many of the people surrounding you. Of course, this need to be offbeat is not new. Tonight: Defer to others.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★ Maintain a level head while others seem to swing back and forth. They might not be sure what they want any more than you are. Tonight: Trying to get too much done — take time for yourself, too.

Dear Annie: This is for “Concerned Wife,” whose husband was diagnosed with diabetes. Six years ago, that was me. I believed I couldn’t control what my husband ate, and then realized I did the cooking and shopping. When my husband went to the doctor, I went along and asked to see a dietitian. I went to diabetes classes.

My children were also at risk because diabetes runs in the family. We began with small, healthy changes. I quit buying soda and served water or low-fat milk. I cut back on the carbs and cooked more protein and vegetables. To reduce sodium and sugar, I cooked more from scratch. I

Dear Annie: Two years ago, after my wife died, I moved to another state to live with my brother and his wife because they needed help.

I have three sons, all of whom now live far away. They call two or three times a year.

I’d like to hear from them more often, so I call them when I want to talk. I have hinted strongly that I wish they would call more frequently, but the last time I did that, my oldest son asked if I was having a “pity party.”

They do say they love me before hanging up, but I wonder if it’s true since they so rarely keep in touch on their own. I even bought an expensive computer with a camera so I could see my grandkids, but my son says he doesn’t have time to set it up. I don’t want to create a problem, but I am. — Feeling Dejected
