KU prof: ‘I felt like I had enough’ 12/21 ‘Mayan’ forecast a fallacy Girl eschews birthday gifts in favor of helping victims of hurricane
By Ian Cummings
icummings@ljworld.com
A 9-year-old girl in Perry made a special request for her birthday this year, and it wasn’t a pony or a new toy. Asking instead that her friends and family donate money to help hurricane victims on the East Coast, she raised hundreds of dollars for the American Red Cross. Weeks after Superstorm Sandy killed more than 100 people and displaced thousands in New York and New Jersey, many remain without their homes and are struggling through the winter. Jaedin Turner hasn’t forgotten them, and she used her Dec. 2 birthday party as an occasion to raise about $500 for Red Cross relief efforts on the East Coast. She then sought matching funds from area businesses, and will have raised about $1,000 by the end of the year. When Jaedin saw news footage of the hurricane’s devastation of New York, it hit home for her, she said. She’d visited New York City with her mother two years ago and recognized some of the flooded areas. When her birthday approached and the subject of gifts came up, she decided to do something about it. “I felt bad that everyone lost pretty much everything,� she said. “And I felt like I had enough.� When Jaedin and her

Expert on ancient civilization says no apocalypse was ever predicted By Matt Erickson merickson@ljworld.com
If the world doesn’t end Friday, John Hoopes says, please don’t blame the Mayan civilization. Whatever you’ve heard or will hear in the run-up to a date that’s been assigned special significance — Dec. 21, 2012 — it’s just not true that the Mayas predicted that the apocalypse would happen on that day, the Kansas University archaeologist says. “Hopefully they won’t be angry and resentful and feel like it was the Mayas who pulled this big trick on everybody,� Hoopes said of anyone who’s bought into the doomsday frenzy. “Because it wasn’t.� Hoopes, an associate professor of anthropology at KU, has spent nearly a decade studying the “2012 phenomenon,� the belief that some sort of global transformative event — be it the end of the world, the arrival of extraterrestrials or something else — would occur on Dec. 21 of this year. While that belief is often associated with a supposed prophecy made by the Mayas, the people who really deserve credit are countercultural groups and New Age adherents in the United States from the 1970s to Please see MAYAN, page 5A

$92.5M bond issue sought ——
School board asking voters for maximum By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

JAEDIN TURNER, 9, OF PERRY, is raising money for the American Red Cross to help victims of Superstorm Sandy, which devastated much of the East Coast in October. For her recent birthday, she asked friends to donate and sought matching funds from area businesses. She has raised more than $800 so far. mother, Brandi Turner, approached area businesses to match Jaedin’s donation to the Red Cross, they found willing partners in Topeka, at Hill’s Pet Nutrition and Binswanger Glass, and in Perry at Hamm, a construction
and contracting company, as well as Perry’s First State Bank and Trust. The money will go toward maintaining shelters for displaced people in New York, said Jo Ann Long, regional development
director for the Red Cross in Kansas. It will also help provide food, cleanup kits and programs to help people get back on their feet. Long said it wasn’t uncommon anymore
The Lawrence school board voted unanimously Monday to seek voter approval for a $92.5 million bond issue, the maximum amount the district could issue without having to get permission to exceed the state cap on bonded indebtedness. S c h o o l board members are calling it a “no tax increase� bond SCHOOLS proposal because it would not require the district to raise its property tax mill levy. That’s because the district is retiring other bonds this year. Still, they admitted, that may be a hard message to sell to voters. “The job for us is to ensure we can communicate this to the public, that this is not a luxury, and that these are not only things that are needed but are long, long overdue,� said board member Rick Ingram. Before the vote, board members received the results of a public opinion survey of

The local Red Cross chapter is still sending volunteers to the East Coast and collecting donations, and will continue until at least the end of the year. Long said Kansas residents can help by texting â&#x20AC;&#x153;Red Crossâ&#x20AC;? to 90999 to make a $10 donation, or by taking the next opportunity to participate in a blood drive. Donations also can be dropped off or sent to the Douglas County Red Cross chapter, 2518 Ridge Court, No. 205, Lawrence, KS 66046. More than 300 blood drives on the East Coast were canceled by the hurricane, Long said, leaving the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospitals in shorter supply than usual.

A 20-year-old Olathe man was charged Monday with attempted robbery, attempted kidnapping, attempted burglary and falsely reporting a crime, all stemming from a Dec. 14 incident. Connor McKenzie Mayhan, who had his left arm in a sling during Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s court appearance, is accused of participating in a botched armed robbery attempt, during which he was shot in the arm. Lawrence police say Mayhan and co-defendant Alex Eftekhar, 21, are suspected of trying to force their way into a home in the 1200 block of New Jersey Street just after midnight Thursday. At least one of them was wearing a ski mask and armed with a rifle. A resident at the home blocked the two from entering, and at some point in the incident Mayhan received a gunshot wound to the arm, police said. Officers said they learned through interviews that because the wound required medical attention, Mayhan and Eftekhar called police and reported that they had been robbed at their home in the 800 block of Mississippi Street.

New poles may be in-
stalled in Lawrence neighborhoods as part of Black Hills wireless meter-reading project If you still get riled up about a new cellphone tower being erected in the county, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so stuck in the 1990s. These days, the argument is just as likely to be about communication equipment that is erected right next to your house. Perhaps some of you remember that a few residents of Old West Lawrence expressed concern about AT&T installing large boxes of communication equipment on city rights-of-way near peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homes. The boxes were for AT&Tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s U-Verse service, and the city was caught a bit off-guard by the trend. But city officials have since created a new agreement that covers placement of that equipment. Well, the trend continues, and this time it is with the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest natural gas company: Black Hills Energy. Black Hills Energy plans to begin an Advanced Metering Infrastructure project in the city. If you are a meter reader, that should make you cringe because meter readers, it appears, likely will have time to hang out with telegraph operators and pager salesmen. What it means to everybody else is poles. There likely will be more poles springing up in the city. The poles will house an antenna-like device, a communications box and a solar panel. Based on what I previously have heard from Black Hills, most natural gas meters in Lawrence send out a signal that contains your usage information. Currently, a van full of equipment drives up and down the streets of Lawrence and captures the signal and the data. But with the new system, strategically placed antennas will capture the data and send it to a central billing location. That will eliminate the driving up and down the streets of Lawrence to read the meters. Black Hills is proposing 29 antenna sites. Ten of the sites are on existing traffic signals. The remaining 19, however, will require the installation of a new pole. As proposed, most of the poles will be placed on city right-of-way â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a couple will be on property owned by Black Hills â&#x20AC;&#x201D; meaning most of the poles will show

BRIEFLY Animal cruelty at fraternity reported Lawrence police were called Friday night to the Beta Theta Pi fraternity, 1425 Tennessee St., to investigate an animal cruelty complaint involving a turkey, Lawrence Police Sgt. Trent McKinley said. Police determined that a live turkey had been kept in a cage during a party the house was hosting. Witnesses reported that the turkey had been â&#x20AC;&#x153;poked by individuals through the cage and heckled during the evening,â&#x20AC;? McKinley said. The turkey was also â&#x20AC;&#x153;chased and abused by several individuals present at the party, seriously injuring the animal.â&#x20AC;? Before police arrived, someone killed the turkey, â&#x20AC;&#x153;stating he did so to end its suffering,â&#x20AC;? McKinley said. No one was arrested, but police have forwarded the investigation to the Douglas County District Attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office for possible charges.

$13M more donated toward KU business building By Matt Erickson merickson@ljworld.com
Kansas University on Monday announced $13 million in additional donations toward the planned new building for the KU School of Business, following an initial $20 million gift from the Capitol Federal Foundation that was announced in October. The most recent contributions put the business school and KU Endowment well past halfway to a fundraising goal of $48 million to $50 million for the $65 million building. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The gifts, I believe, are in-
Task force on teachers unions criticized
credibly significant, because they are from a lot of different people who have deep ties to the university and to the business school,â&#x20AC;? said Neeli Bendapudi, dean of the KU School of Business. Among contributions announced Monday were four greater than $1 million:
$2.5 million from the Hall Family Foundation of Kansas City, Mo.
$2.5 million from David and Suzanne Booth of Austin, Texas.
$1.4 million from Dana and Sue Anderson of Los Angeles.
$1.1 million from Howard and Debbi Cohen of Leawood.
The Hall, Booth and Anderson family names already adorn buildings on campus because of past contributions to other areas of Bendapudi the university. And David Booth in 2010 bought James Naismithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original rules of basketball for $4.3 million, providing what will be the focal point of a new museum and student center to be located across Naismith Drive from the new business building.
David Booth, Dana Anderson and Howard Cohen are alumni of the business school.

Officials with the Kansas National Education Association are sharply criticizing a governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s task force recommendation that calls for revising or narrowing state laws that govern collective bargaining rights of teachers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It angers me,â&#x20AC;? said Mark Desetti, a lobbyist for KNEA, the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s larg- Brownback est teachers union. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have worked very hard to build collaborative relationships. Collective bargaining around this state works. Our teachers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go out there and demand exorbitant salaries, and they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a right to strike. They go out there, and they work with their school districts.â&#x20AC;? Last week, Gov. Sam Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School Efficiency Task Force held its final meeting to decide on a set of recommendations aimed at improving schoolsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; efficiency so that more of their budgets Please see TEACHERS, page 4A

Official: No signs Teachers of trauma in death of ex-Lawrence woman CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A
â&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x201D;
Body was found in daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s garage By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com
A medical examiner did not discover any signs of physical trauma to the body of a former Lawrence woman found dead last month in her daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s garage in Oklahoma, McIntosh County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Detective Jared West said. However, authorities are awaiting further toxicology results for Erlene McCune, 79, whose body was discovered in Eufaula, Okla., two months after her daughter signed her out of The Windsor assisted living facility in Lawrence. McCuneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter, Shelly D. Maytubby, has been charged with desecration of a human corpse after police found her motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body wrapped in a sheet in Maytubbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s garage. Maytubby is being held on a $50,000 bond. According to Oklahoma authorities, Maytubby signed McCune, who suffered from dementia, out of The Windsor on Sept. 12. Several weeks ago, McCuneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family contacted Oklahoma police, con-
cerned about the womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s whereabouts. Police questioned Maytubby, who told them her mother had run off with a truck driver named Santa Claus. Police continued to investigate, finding McCuneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body on Nov. 27. Police said they also found $12,000 at Maytubbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home, which raised suspicions that Maytubby may have been financially exploiting her mother. Maytubby was arrested on a charge of unlawfully disposing of human remains, obstructing an officer, disrupting an investigation and financial exploitation by a caregiver. However, she was only charged with desecration of a human corpse â&#x20AC;&#x201D; punishable by up to seven years in prison. West said police have also seized several of McCuneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bank accounts to help determine whether other financial crimes may have occurred. Maytubbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next court appearance is set for Jan. 23. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reporter Shaun Hittle can be reached at 832-7173. Follow him at Twitter.com/shaunhittle.
Gold coins found in Salvation Army kettles to be auctioned By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com
rare coins to verify that they are authentic. Similar donations have been reported by other Salvation Army units around the country. Last week, a gold coin valued at $500 was found wrapped inside a $100 bill in a Salvation Army kettle in New York state. Earlier in the week, a bell ringer in Wichita received a $50 gold Canadian coin. The benefit dinner and auction will be at 6 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 26, at the Lawrence Country Club. The event is open to the public. Admission will be $40 per person and will include a dinner prepared by club chef Frank Sheldon. People wishing to attend are asked to RSVP by Jan. 19 by calling The Salvation Army 785-843-4188, ext. 107, or by emailing Watts at barry_watts@ usc.salvationarmy.org.
Officials at The Salvation Army of Douglas County found some unique and valuable items recently when they opened up one of their red kettles to count the money people had dropped in. Inside one of the kettles, they found three solid gold coins valued at more than $1,700 each, contributed by an anonymous donor. Several days later, officials said, another bell ringer received another anonymous gift: an 1880 Liberty Head $5 gold coin. The coins will go up for auction at a benefit dinner The Salvation Army will hold next month. Barry Watts, development director for the local Salvation Army, said officials at the agency have spoken to one of the individuals who donated the â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Education reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 832-7259.

would be directed toward classroom instruction. According to the draft report, one of those recommendations is for the state to, â&#x20AC;&#x153;review/ narrow the Professional Negotiations Act to prevent it from hindering operational flexibility/ resource assignment.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The current topics (and) categories that are subject to negotiation limit the basic ability for a district superintendent to efficiently manage district resources,â&#x20AC;? the draft report stated. Democrats and education groups were critical of the governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s task force from the outset, noting among other things that it was made up mainly of accountants and included no one with professional experience in education. Kansas House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, said he was disappointed in the draft report. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree with the premise that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to make schools more efficient by compensating teachers less,â&#x20AC;? Davis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have never heard a whole lot of complaining about the collective bargaining process. I think that most school administrators and school board members go through that process wishing that they could do more to help compensate teachers. But unfortunately, when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not able to adequately fund education, we get put in a situation where teachers are pitted against other needs of a school district.â&#x20AC;? Last year, the Ohio Legislature passed a law that greatly limited collective bargaining rights of teachers, but voters in Ohio later repealed that law in a ballot referendum. Also last year, Wisconsin passed a law stripping teachers and many other public employees of col-
A 29-year-old Lawrence woman was sentenced Friday in Douglas County District Court to two years of probation for her involvement in a New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day assault at Burrito King, 900 Illinois St. Kristin E. Silva, one of two defendants in the case, pleaded no contest in October to one charge of aggravated battery as part of a plea agreement with prosecutors. Silva was accused of assaulting a woman in the drive-thru lane. The co-defendant in the case, April A. Jones, 25, pleaded no contest in September to a similar charge and also received two yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; probation. KPHQ /,%(57< +$// CEEGUUKDKNKV[

lective bargaining rights. That resulted in unsuccessful efforts to recall Republican Gov. Scott Walker from office. Desetti said he thinks the task force recommendation may represent the first step toward a similar effort to limit collective bargaining for teachers in Kansas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This certainly moves in that direction,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say to strip (teachers) entirely of bargaining rights. It says revise or narrow the Professional Negotiations Act to prevent it from hindering operational flexibility and resource assignment. You know, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;resource assignment,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; like what you pay teachers.â&#x20AC;? Ken Willard, a member of the Kansas State Board of Education who chaired the task force, declined to comment on the report last week, saying it would be premature to comment before it is finalized and delivered to the governor. The Kansas Association of School Boards reported in its email newsletter after the meeting that some task force members had said superintendents had told them that collective bargaining agreements limit management flexibility. But Lawrence Superintendent Rick Doll said that hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been the case locally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a good relationship with our teachers association, so I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really say thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a problem for us,â&#x20AC;? Doll said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the things I say, kind of tongue-in-cheek, is if it seems like this mythology was thought up by people on drugs, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because it was,â&#x20AC;? Hoopes said. The 12/21/12 date was first linked to the end of the 13th bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;akâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;tun in an archaeologistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book in 1983, and it was popularized amid the New Age Harmonic Convergence event in 1987. Its convergence with the winter solstice and a peculiar astrological alignment caused it to draw more notice. Personal computers allowed adherents to publish their own texts about the 2012 phenomenon, and the emergence of the World Wide Web in the 1990s fueled it further. Fears of Y2K doomsday scenarios stoked the fire. Mel Gibsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2006 movie â&#x20AC;&#x153;Apocalyptoâ&#x20AC;? heightened interest in the Mayan civilization, and the 2009 disaster film â&#x20AC;&#x153;2012â&#x20AC;? turned the apocalypse theory into a full-blown cultural force. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of a weird thing: a very obscure calendar of one of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many cultures,â&#x20AC;? Hoopes said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become a global phenomenon.â&#x20AC;? Though that phenomenon has been linked to misperceptions and myths of the Mayas, Hoopes has tried to use the hype as an opportunity to educate, commenting on the subject in The New York Times, USA Today, numerous TV shows and other media outlets. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s published academic articles on the subject and served as an author and editor for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;2012 phenomenonâ&#x20AC;? article on Wikipedia. (The article, which he says is perhaps the best source on the subject, will be Wikipediaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s featured article on Dec. 20.) After he returns from his conference in Helsinki, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be joining other archaeologists at Chichen Itza, perhaps the bestknown Mayan city, in Mexico, where a music festival and other celebrations will mark the occasion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I saw this as an opportunity to teach about ancient indigenous cultures of the Americas,â&#x20AC;? Hoopes said. But what his studies on the subject have taught him about most, he says, is not the Mayan civilization but modern-day American culture, and how its various sects, forces and media can take an idea to unimagined places. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you want to study a weird, exotic culture, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to travel across the world or into the jungles of Central America,â&#x20AC;? Hoopes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right here around us.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly true, he says, that Friday would mark a significant date in the Long Count calendar that the Henry Chapman, Mayas used, according to film student, modern interpretations.

Former employee suing Lawrence restaurant for discrimination A former employee of Ingredient, 947 Massachusetts St., filed a lawsuit against the restaurant last week in federal court, alleging civil rights violations. Rueben Madrigal, who was employed at the restaurant until August, says he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;harassed by the co-owner, managers and my co-workers because of my disability and nation origin,â&#x20AC;? according to court documents. Madrigal, who in the court documents says
he suffers from posttraumatic stress disorder, alleges that employees would continually come up behind him and make loud noises, startling him. Madrigal says that he informed management but that no action was taken. Madrigal is seeking $75,000 in damages. In the lawsuit, Madrigal states that he filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which issued him a letter of â&#x20AC;&#x153;no finding.â&#x20AC;?
Ingredient owner Nick Wysong was not aware of the lawsuit when contacted by the Journal-World. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sad to read that,â&#x20AC;? Wysong said after being provided a copy of the lawsuit. Wysong said that he was aware Madrigal had filed complaints through other avenues, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, but that none of those complaints had shown any findings of civil rights violations.

Finally, $5.7 million would be earmarked for expanding career and technical education programs at the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Community Connections Center, 2600 W. 25th St. Superintendent Rick Doll said the district is in negotiations with Johnson County, Kansas City and Neosho County community colleges to offer four programs at that facility: health science, machine technology, networking and commercial construction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;None of this is frivolous, Sanburn or extra, or icing on the cake,â&#x20AC;? said school b o a r d president Vanessa Sanburn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have some real Diaz Moore cake to build when it comes to base services.â&#x20AC;?

400 head-of-household registered voters in the district. According to that poll, 55 percent of those responding said they either favored or strongly favored the bond issue for the purposes that were outlined. That support jumped to 75 percent when they were told the bond issue would not require a tax increase. The poll was conducted in early December by the Johnson County firm Patron Insight, a consulting firm the board contracted with to measure voter attitudes about the district and the level of public support for a bond issue. But Ken DeSieghardt, chief executive officer of the company, said the concept of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;no tax increaseâ&#x20AC;? bond issue is one that some voters may forget as the campaign moves forward, and one that other voters may never believe. If approved, most of the bond proceeds â&#x20AC;&#x201D; $70.9 million â&#x20AC;&#x201D; would be used to upgrade the 14 elementary schools, including expansions at some of the buildings. Most of that would go toward the six â&#x20AC;&#x153;coreâ&#x20AC;? elementary schools in older neighborhoods of central and east Lawrence: Cordley, Hillcrest, Kennedy, New York, Pinckney and Sunset Hill. Free State and Lawrence high schools also would be slated for some expansion and remodeling, totaling about $4.5 million. About $5 million would be dedicated for districtwide technology upgrades, such as enhanced wireless infrastructure at the two high schools and four middle schools. An additional $5.7 million would be budgeted for mechanical, electrical and plumbing upgrades at the two high schools and four middle

2 funerals begin sad procession Authorities: Topeka
man who fatally shot 2 officers dies By John Hanna Associated Press
TOPEKA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A man with a history of theft and weapons convictions gunned down two police officers investigating possible drug activity in a Kansas grocery parking lot, and was later killed after an armed standoff, authorities said Monday. Hundreds gathered outside Topeka police headquarters with candles in memory of Cpl. David Gogian and Officer Jeff Atherly. Members of the slain officersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; families attended Monday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vigil along with dozens of law enforcement officers in uniforms. The man who opened fire on the officers Sunday night was David Edward Tiscareno, 22, of Topeka, said Kyle Smith, deputy director of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation. Shawnee County Sheriff Herman Jones said Tiscareno was seated behind the driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seat of a car stopped in the parking lot of a Topeka grocery store when police ordered the occupants to get out. After shooting two of the three responding officers, Tiscareno got back into the car and drove from the scene. The third officer returned fire, Jones said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were people inside the store,â&#x20AC;? Jones said during a news conference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were residents who saw this going on. There were people driving. There was a multitude of witnesses there.â&#x20AC;? Gogian and Atherly were shot in the head, according to authorities. Based on a tip, law enforcement officers found Tiscareno holed up early Monday at a house about a mile away. When negotiations broke down, Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents fired tear gas inside. Tiscareno then emerged from the home with a gun and officers opened fire, according to the Shawnee County sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, which is leading the investigation.

Smith said investigators believe Tiscareno fired a shot outside the home before authorities returned fire. Tiscareno was declared dead at a hospital. Topeka police Chief Ronald Miller described his 280-officer force as â&#x20AC;&#x153;numb.â&#x20AC;? Online court records show Tiscareno was charged in September 2008 with one count of theft of less than $1,000. He pleaded no contest in April 2009 and was sentenced to 12 months of supervised probation. His probation was revoked in January 2010. In March 2011, he was charged with criminal use of weapons and was sentenced that September to 12 months unsupervised probation, also after pleading no contest. A notation in court records available online said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This defendant should be advised against carry a firearm.â&#x20AC;? Court records also show that in February 2011, Tiscareno was evicted from an east Topeka apartment for failing to pay the rent and that a local hospital sued him for failing to pay almost $9,100 in bills. Jones said he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure whether there was a drug deal or drug use going on in the store parking lot; the person who called authorities reported drug activity. The third officer at the scene was not hurt and has been placed on administrative leave with pay, which is standard procedure when an officer is involved in a shooting, authorities said. The other people who were in the car when the shootings happened have been questioned. Authorities would not say whether they might face charges.
NEWTOWN, CONN. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Opening a long and almost unbearable procession of grief, Newtown began laying its dead to rest Monday, holding funerals for two 6-year-old boys â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one a football fan who was buried in a New York Giants jersey and one whose twin sister survived the school shooting rampage. Two funeral homes filled with mourners for Noah Pozner and Jack Pinto, the first of the 20 children killed in last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s massacre to receive funerals. The gunman also killed six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary, and his mother in her home, before committing suicide. A rabbi presided at Noahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s service, and in keeping with Jewish tradition, the boy was laid to rest in a simple brown wooden casket with a Star of David on it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If Noah had not been taken from us, he would have become a great man. He would been a wonderful husband and a loving father,â&#x20AC;? Noahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s uncle, Alexis Haller, told mourners, according to remarks he pro-

MOURNERS HUG each other before a funeral service for 6-year-old Noah Pozner on Monday in Fairfield, Conn. Pozner was killed when a gunman killed 26 people, including 20 children, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown Friday.
Newtown, a community of 27,000 people 60 miles northeast of New York City, will face many more funerals over the next few days, just as other towns are getting ready for the holidays. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like we have to get back to normal, but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if there is normal anymore,â&#x20AC;? said Kim Camputo, mother of two children, 5 and 10, who attend a different school. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll definitely be dropping them off and picking them up myself for a while.â&#x20AC;? Beyond Newtown, parents nervously sent their children back to class in a country deeply shaken by the attack, and in a measure of how the tragedy has put people on edge, schools were locked down in at least four places. As investigators worked to figure out what drove Lanza to lash out with such fury â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and why he singled out the school â&#x20AC;&#x201D; federal agents said he had fired guns at shooting ranges over the past several years but there was no evidence he did so recently as practice for the rampage.

BRIEFLY Benghazi attack probe complete WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; An independent investigation into the deadly Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, is complete, and Congress will be briefed on its findings this week, the State Department said Monday. The classified report by the Accountability Review Board will be sent to Capitol Hill on Tuesday, a day before the panelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two most senior members will testify in closed session before the House and Senate foreign affairs committees. The board was established to examine the attack that killed U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens and three other Americans.

Differences narrowing in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fiscal cliffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; talks By David Espo and Jim Kuhnhenn Associated Press
cession to Boehner, although it came with an asterisk. The president wants lower-income re- Obama cipients to receive protection against any loss from scaling back future cost-of-living increases, these officials said. Nor did Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offer include raising the age of Medicare eligibility from 65 to 67, a Republican goal that has drawn particularly strong objections from Democratic liberals.
Several officials also said during the day that Boehnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offer late last week to accept Boehner higher tax rates included provisions that would mean higher taxes on investment income and dividends earned by wealthy Americans and also in the estate tax. The people who described the talks did so on condition of anonymity, citing the secretive nature of the discussions.
The maneuvering is aimed at reaching an agreement that would include cancellation of a scheduled year-end hike in taxes for nearly all wage-earners as well as spending cuts at the Pentagon and in domestic programs across the government. Economists inside and outside the government have warned that the combination of the two, set to begin at yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end, could send the economy into recession. The new offer that was given to Boehner at the White House closed the gap between the two men
considerably on a framework for a deal. Other major issues are part of the negotiations. Without action by Congress, for example, longterm unemployment benefits will expire for millions at the end of the year, and doctors will face a cut in the payments they receive for treating Medicare patients. Obama has also called for assistance for hard-pressed homeowners as well as fresh economic stimulus measures, and some Democrats want to include a sizeable amount of disaster aid in any legislation to offset the cost of Superstorm Sandy.
WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; President Barack Obama has agreed to curtail future cost-of-living increases for recipients of Social Security and softened his demand for higher taxes at upper income levels, narrowing differences with House Speaker John Boehner in â&#x20AC;&#x153;fiscal cliffâ&#x20AC;? talks, people familiar with the talks said Monday. Speaking a few hours after Obama and Boehner met at the White House, these people said the president was now seeking a higher tax rate beginning

Unisex Easy-Bake oven on the way PROVIDENCE, R.I. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Hasbro says it will soon reveal a gender-neutral Easy-Bake Oven after meeting with a New Jersey girl who started a campaign calling on the toy maker to make one that appeals to all kids. McKenna Pope, 13, of Garfield, N.J., got more than 40,000 signatures on her online petition at Change. org and the support of celebrity chefs including Bobby Flay, who backed her call for Hasbro to make a gender-neutral oven and to include boys in the ads. She was prompted to start the petition after shopping for an Easy-Bake as a Christmas present for her 4-year-old brother, Gavyn Boscio, and finding them only in purple and pink.
Bangladesh fire ruled sabotage DHAKA, BANGLADESH â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A Bangladesh government committee investigating the garment factory fire that killed 112 people last month said in its findings that the blaze was sabotage, probably by someone who worked there. But the panel said that no matter who set the fire, the owner of the factory also should be punished for the deaths because he neglected worker safety. Some government and garment industry officials had alleged soon after the Nov. 24 fire that it was an act of sabotage, though a fire official said casualties would have been greatly reduced if the factory had followed safety rules. The factory lacked emergency exits and Hossain has said only three floors of the eight-story building were legally built. Surviving employees said gates had been locked and managers had told them to go back to work after the fire alarm went off.

Call to action Curbing gun violence in American will require a multifaceted approach.
T
he shooting deaths of two police officers in Topeka Sunday evening provided a tragic local connection to the 26 shooting deaths on Friday in a Newtown, Conn., elementary school. In both cases, the apparent killer also is dead. Law enforcement officials will try to piece together the circumstances of both incidents while government officials, mental health authorities and others try to come up with ways to prevent what has become an all-too-common scenario. The horrible fact that 20 of the shooting victims in Newtown were 6 and 7 years old has provided new incentive and urgency to trying to stop the cycle of violence. One of the first reactions from government officials is to renew effort to control gun ownership across the nation. Reducing the number of guns, especially high-powered assault weapons, could have a positive impact, but the issue of gun violence in America is a complex problem that requires more than one approach. One is to deal with the kind of mental illness that often drives horrific incidents like the one in Newtown. After Friday’s shooting, a mother and writer from Boise, Idaho, shared a wrenching online account of life with her 13-yearold son who already is exhibiting frightening symptoms and behaviors. A few weeks ago, after she asked him to return his overdue library books, he pulled a knife and threatened to kill his mother, then himself. Police officers came and took him to the hospital emergency room but there were no beds in the mental hospital so they sent him home with a prescription designed to treat psychotic conditions. The mother readily admits that her son’s problems are too much for her to handle, but because many state-run treatment centers and mental hospitals in Idaho have been closed, the only advice her son’s social worker could offer was to get her son charged with a crime so “the system” would “create a paper trail.” How desperate must a mother be to take that advice concerning her high-IQ, sometimes loving son? Unfortunately, there probably are families right here in Kansas facing a similar dilemma. State hospitals have been closed in recent years, and it’s extremely difficult, especially for people with limited financial resources, to find in-patient mental health care. We can’t keep using our jails and prisons as a substitute for mental health facilities. Many experts also wonder about the impact of our violent culture on people who may already be predisposed to violence. Video games and many movies and television shows glorify and normalize violence in a way that may make it somehow more acceptable to someone who has trouble controlling his or her emotions and discerning the difference between right and wrong. As a society, maybe we need to reexamine our “entertainment” values. We applaud the commitment of officials in the wake of the Newtown shootings to “do something” about gun violence in America. It is a challenging issue that won’t be easy to solve, but the tragic deaths of six educators and 20 young children certainly should concentrate our attention to the task.
U.S. policy in Syria lacks clarity As President Obama enters his second term, Syria has become the most urgent test of his foreign policy leadership and style. If Obama finally takes ownership of the effort to unseat Bashar al-Assad (which would not require U.S. troops or planes), there’s still a chance of preventing a Syrian implosion. If the administration leads from in front, it may be possible to head off a strategic disaster that would endanger Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, and Israel. Yet early signs indicate that Obama will continue the muddled Syria policy of his first term, while continuing to lead from way, way behind. Our Syria policy is unclear to both our enemies and our allies, as well as to the Syrian rebels. The administration has long called for Assad’s ouster, but has not really pursued it. It has chased a diplomatic option, even though Assad’s main ally, Moscow, won’t dump him until it believes he is virtually defeated. As for sending Patriot missile batteries to Turkey, that has symbolic value, but it won’t affect the situation on the ground in Syria. Washington has outsourced the arming of rebel groups to Gulf states that prefer Islamist fighters. Meantime, the United States won’t help arm secular and moderate rebel commanders. So do we want Assad gone or don’t we? Do we want an Islamist Syria or don’t we? Ordinary Syrians are also cynical about the U.S. “red line” on the use of chemical weapons. They feel it gives Assad a virtual green light to use any other weapon against civilians. No wonder a Turkish official told me during a recent visit to Ankara: “We want more clarity in the United

The longer this conflict lasts, and the stronger the Islamists become, the more likely it is that sectarian war will spill over Syria’s borders.” States position. People expect more from the United States.” This lack of clarity haunts U.S. policy even after the election. Last week, the United States, with European and Arab allies, recognized a new Syrian civilian opposition council that it had helped godfather. The hope is that this group will provide a means to funnel more humanitarian aid into Syria. (Since U.S. and allied officials were able to organize this group after our presidential election, one wonders why they couldn’t have done it before.) However, U.S. policymakers still insist this new civilian group — not the rebel fighters — is the key to overthrowing Assad. The new council supposedly will be able to convince Assad’s Alawite sect and other minorities that they can safely abandon their support for the regime. U.S. officials also hope the council will be able to assert civilian control over rebel fighters. Such hopes are badly misplaced. Civilians alone cannot determine the Syrian
zation. True, the group has some al-Qaida links. But it has waged and won some of the toughest battles against Assad’s forces, which is why most rebel commanders oppose the U.S. designation. Echoing many other rebel commanders, Col. Akidi told me: “We are not united with jihadi groups, but we fight together with all people who fight Assad.” For the same reason, the president of the new civilian rebel coalition, Mouaz al-Khatib, disagreed publicly with the blacklisting of the group. If the United States were arming non-Islamist rebels, they wouldn’t need Jabhat al-Nusra’s help. If the administration weren’t outsourcing to the Saudis and Qataris, non-Islamist fighters would be in a stronger position. Instead, U.S. officials have sown confusion over whom they support. They have undermined secular fighters and given a boost to those with beards. And they have confused our friends and opponents as to our aims, making a negotiated settlement less likely as neither Moscow nor Tehran thinks we are serious about ousting Assad. The Syrian dictator probably doesn’t think so, either, which will encourage him to try to hold on in Damascus. The longer this conflict lasts, and the stronger the Islamists become, the more likely it is that sectarian war will spill over Syria’s borders. The only chance of preventing that is to speed up the endgame. That would require Obama to convince all parties, friend and foe, that he wants Assad gone. Rhetoric will be no substitute for concrete actions. The time remaining is short. — Trudy Rubin is a columnist and editorial board member for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Dec. 18, 1912: YEARS “A CORRECAGO TION — A mistake IN 1912 was made (in an earlier edition) in regard to the ages of boys allowed to frequent pool halls of the city. The report should have read that all boys under the age of nineteen would not be allowed to play in the halls instead of eighteen as the paper stated. This makes only a difference of a year but it takes in a large number of High school students, who otherwise would be allowed to play.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

endgame. Unless Obama’s policy becomes more robust — and more convincing to the region — the Syrian conflict will spiral out of control. The arguments for not arming the rebels are long outdated. If we were concerned weapons might fall into the wrong hands, we should have put more resources into vetting rebel commanders. U.S. officials have been permitted to meet with Free Syrian Army commanders only in the last few months. And from what I hear, the amount of CIA resources devoted to the task is still underwhelming. Even now, there is plenty of information about key Syrian rebel commanders who are secular or moderate Muslims to whom weapons could be directed. But they are skeptical at best, and hostile at worst, about U.S. intentions. Col. Abdul-Jabbar Akidi, a secular senior rebel commander in Aleppo, told me in November: “Syrians believe that America is with Bashar Assad. America does not support us.” It’s no wonder he feels that way, since we have outsourced delivery of weapons to the Qataris and Saudis. By doing so, we’ve ensured that the lion’s share goes to hardline Salafi militias or those linked to the Muslim Brotherhood. The Saudis were handed control of a major meeting of Free Syrian Army commanders last week in Turkey with the goal of setting up a unified command. Early reports say the command includes many with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and Salafists. Why should we be surprised? Perhaps the strongest indicator of a policy muddle was last week’s designation of the Syrian rebel group Jabhat alNusra as a terrorist organi-

Horrible, horrible thing. the high-powered ammunition used at Sue Hess, the school shooting would do to the Lawrence bodies of 6- and 7-year-old children.
Deadly mix
The extreme gun advocates in our midst will predictably argue that this was the solitary act of a madman. That much is true. But it is also true that someone put the assault weapon and high-powered ammunition into circulation. This type of weapon and ammunition has only one purpose: To kill human beings. The country has seen enough of these mass shootings. The distribution of assault weapons and high-powered ammunition must be regulated. The extreme gun advocates believe that the Constitution affords them the right to the unrestricted access to even the most powerful assault weapons and ammunition. I say this to those people: Go to Connecticut. Sit down with par-
Near insanity
To the editor: The headline in the Dec. 15 JournalWorld concerning the killings in Newton, Conn., was ironically telling: “Little anyone can do.” Certainly, nothing more could have been done that day at Sandy Hook Elementary School, but much can be done to distinguish such violence. Intelligent and protective gun control legislation must be enacted to begin the process of societal change. America can no longer be the wild, wild west. We must join the civilized world and severely restrict gun ownership. If we can change attitudes about drunken driving and smoking in public places we can
make responsible decisions about the proliferation of machines designed for the sole purpose of killing people. We have reached a stage of near insanity with our tolerance of easy access to absurd, senseless, and obscene weaponry. J.D. Parr, Baldwin City
Patton timing To the editor: I liked the article by Chief Justice Nuss on the justice selection system (JournalWorld, 12-16), but his information on Gen. Patton is not correct in saying that “his troops stormed Normandy beaches.” The troops liked the speech referred to, but the Third Army did not get to Normandy until later. Instead, Patton’s Army in England played a different role in making the Germans believe the invasion would come elsewhere. Albert Sellen, U.S. Third Army, Lawrence

A look at KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top 10 recruits
Close to home
Charlie Weis and his staff of assistants, motivated by a 1-11 season, hit the road sprinting after junior-college recruits. So far, 16 juco standouts have committed to play football for Kansas University. Based on the other schools that offered them scholarships, KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs, and last and least, their highlight films (everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highlights look great, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re highlights), here is one guess at the 10 most promising, listed in reverse order so as to build up the drama toward the list of BCS-conference schools that offered the No. 1 player: 10. Mike Smithburg, 6-3, 300, OL, Iowa Western: Shaved his trademark, mustache-less beard Monday, so he might only weigh 299 now. Coming out of high school, he needed to make his body bigger and stronger to attract the attention of Div. I schools, and he accomplished his goals, always a good sign. BCS conference offers: Illinois, South Florida. KU recruiter: Buddy Wyatt. Anticipated arrival: January. 9. Tedarian Johnson, 6-3, 285, DT, Hinds: One of three Johnsons in this recruiting class (high school tight end Ben and junior college safety Isaiah), Tedarian will earn immediate playing time if he can show he explodes off the line of scrimmage, a quality KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s D-tackles have lacked since James McClinton exhausted his eligibility. BCS conference offers: Iowa State, Mississippi State, Texas Tech. KU recruiter: DeMontie Cross. Anticipated arrival: January. 8. Zach Fondal, 6-5, 295, OL, American River: Tanner Hawkinson manned the lefttackle position well for the Jayhawks and wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be easy to replace. Fondal will try to win the job. BCS conference offers: Arkansas, South Florida. KU recruiter: Rob Ianello. Anticipated arrival: January.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FRESHMAN ANDREW WHITE III POSES FOR A PORTRAIT prior to the season. White grew up near the University of Richmond campus and was recruited by the Spiders, who tonight will face White and the Jayhawks at Allen Fieldhouse.
KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s White familiar with tonightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foe By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
A blue-chip basketball prospect living just 15 minutes from the University of Richmondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campus, Andrew White III spent a lot of time with the Spidersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; players and coaches the past few years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I played pickup there probably twice a week. I played with their whole roster just about,â&#x20AC;?

The unfortunate part of recruiting is calling the school you are close with and telling them you are not going there. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure they understand I had a good situation in both places,â&#x20AC;? added White, who chose KU over Richmond, North Carolina State, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, Texas and Georgetown.

by eighth-year coach Chris Mooney: â&#x20AC;&#x153;They run that Princeton offense. On defense, they switch about everything,â&#x20AC;? White said of Richmond, which has defeated Wake Forest, Hampton, Liberty, North Carolina Wilmington, Wofford, William&Mary, Old Dominion, James Madison and Stetson and lost to Ohio and Minnesota. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have to have our feet moving and be ready for backcuts if we are going to defend the Please see WHITE, page 3B

KANSASâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; MONICA ENGELMAN (13) FLOATS PAST KIARA ETIENNE on her way to the basket against Prairie View Please see KEEGAN, page 3B A&M on Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse.
Monica Engelman usually isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t one to celebrate on the basketball floor, particularly regarding her own accomplishments. But Engelman, a senior guard on Kansas Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team, showed Sunday a crack in her normally stone-faced on-court persona after hitting a threepointer in the first half of the Jayhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; victory over Prairie View A&M at Allen Fieldhouse. It was nothing
flashy nor self-promoting; Engelman just pointed to KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bench, where players and coaches stood up to celebrate what one would assume to be a rather meaningless three early in a nonconference game. The shot held significance for every member of the Jayhawks, though, because it was Engelmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first threepointer of the season. Engelman, a 5-foot-11 shooting guard from San Antonio, made 30 from threepoint range as a freshman and 41 as a sophomore be-

New league ponders question of faith By Justin Pope Associated Press Education Writer
As a chunk of the Big East transforms itself into a mostly or even all-Catholic basketball league, the conference faces a choice: play up or play down its faith-based roots? With Catholic higher education already struggling to strike a balance between faith and financial security, either course carries both challenges and opportunities. On the one hand, the seven schools that announced Saturday theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll set off on their own â&#x20AC;&#x201D; St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Georgetown, Marquette, DePaul, Seton Hall, Providence and Villanova â&#x20AC;&#x201D; have already made clear theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look to non-denominational institutions that otherwise fit their profile, such as Butler, to expand. But even if they do so, the conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s identity will likely lie with its core of Catholicrooted schools. To be sure, going overboard with that identity could harm recruiting of nonCatholic students â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both athletes and non-athletes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and limit expansion. But a moderate embrace could help institutions reconnect their sports programs to their missions, and reinvigorate their religious identities at a time when important groups on campus fear itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s slipping away. Think of a non-secular Ivy League, but with much better basketball. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a coincidence that the seven schools that announced Saturday theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re separating from the Big East are all Catholic. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re each part of a tradition that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries â&#x20AC;&#x201D; church institutions that sprang up to serve urban immigrant communities. Neither their demographics nor tightly-packed city campuses lent themselves to football players and stadiums (Notre Dame, with space to grow in Indiana, proved the exception to the pattern). Basketball was a better fit for city schools, and each has done well with it. The problem today is that college athletics revolves around big-time football dollars. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s left behind the niche these Catholic schools inhabit â&#x20AC;&#x201D; basketball powers where football is either second-fiddle (Georgetown, Villanova) or not played at all (the others). So theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re setting off on their own and, for now, seem likely to market themselves as a national league. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The criteria that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll set forth will be non-denominational,â&#x20AC;? Villanova athletic director Vince Nicastro said Sunday, adding the group will be looking for schools that are committed to top-tier competition, are â&#x20AC;&#x153;attractive media entities,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;care about the holistic development of their student athletes.â&#x20AC;?
NASHVILLE, TENN. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Chris Johnson went 94 yards for the longest touchdown run in the NFL since 2006, and the Tennessee Titans beat the Jets 14-10 on Monday night to eliminate New York from playoff contention. Jake Lockerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first touchdown run of the season put Tennessee ahead late in the third quarter, and the Titans intercepted four passes by a struggling Mark Sanchez to snap a three-game skid. After bumbling around all night, the Jets somehow still had a chance to win when they took over at the Tennessee 25 with 47 seconds left following a 19-yard punt by Brett Kern. But Sanchez fumbled a low shotgun snap, Bilal Powell inadvertently kicked the ball away, and the Titans recovered to seal it. It was a fitting end to an ugly game that left New York coach Rex Ryan cursing to himself as he walked off the field.
The Jets (6-8) needed to win their final three games and get help elsewhere to earn a playoff spot. Instead, the Titans sacked Sanchez three times and got a fourth on Tim Tebow. Jason McCourty and Michael Griffin each had two interceptions, keeping New York out of the playoffs for a second straight season after reaching consecutive AFC title games. Johnson, with the names of the victims of Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shootings in Connecticut written on his cleats, ran a franchise-record 94 yards for a TD in the second quarter. Lockerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 13-yard touchdown run at the end of the third put the Titans (5-9) ahead to stay. The Jets took a 10-7 lead when Sanchez and Jeff Cumberland connected on a 17-yard touchdown pass with 3:19 to go in the third. The Titans responded on their next possession with Lockerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quarterback keeper around left end, capping a seven-play, 64-yard drive.

Blue Jays acquire Mets ace R.A. Dickey in trade NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Eager for a new challenge and certainly a better chance to win, R.A. Dickey broke the news of his trade even before the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets. A few minutes ahead of the teamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; announcing the seven-player swap Monday that sent the NL Cy Young Award winner to Toronto, he tweeted his thanks to Mets fans and added he was all set to pitch for the Blue Jays. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now that its official, I want to say that I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the words to express how grateful I am to you for the steadfast support,â&#x20AC;? Dickey posted on Twitter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank you for making me feel wanted.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Looking forward to a new chapter with the Jays,â&#x20AC;? he wrote. Toronto acquired the 38-year-old knuckleballer and catchers Josh Thole and Mike Nickeas. The Mets got top catching prospect Travis dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arnaud and veteran catcher John Buck, plus minor-league right-hander Noah Syndergaard and outfielder Wuilmer Becerra. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was an extraordinary privilege for us to be part of his career,â&#x20AC;? Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said about Dickey on a conference call. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The final chapter has not been written.â&#x20AC;? Earlier in the day, Dickey and the busy Blue Jays agreed to a new contract, clearing the way for the Mets to send him to a team thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spending a lot of money trying to join baseballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s elite. Toronto has now acquired All-Stars Jose Reyes, Josh Johnson, Mark Buehrle, Melky Cabrera and Dickey since the season ended. Dickey was already signed for $5.25 million next year. His new contract adds two more seasons for $25 million â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he will get $12 million in both 2014 and 2015, plus thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a club option for 2016 at $12 million with a $1 million buyout. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just so close to contention,â&#x20AC;? Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just about one season. This allows us to put what we feel is a contending team together for an extended run, for a three-to-five-year period.â&#x20AC;? Dickey needed to pass a physical before the teams announced the deal. He became the fourth pitcher to win the Cy Young and be traded before the next season, joining David Cone, Pedro Martinez and Roger Clemens. Alderson said the Metsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; preference going into the offseason was to re-sign Dickey. But as the winter meetings approached in early December, Alderson said Dickeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s value â&#x20AC;&#x153;in a possible trade was also sky-rocketing. At some point, those lines crossed.â&#x20AC;? Several teams made runs at a deal for Dickey, with Texas and the Los Angeles Angels among those in the mix. Alderson said while some clubs popped in and out of trade talks, Torontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interest remained steady. Alderson said the Mets didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t completely decide to trade Dickey until they saw the final package that Toronto offered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was a complicated deal,â&#x20AC;? Alderson said. The Blue Jays have missed the playoffs since winning their second straight World Series crown in 1993, and have boldly moved to reshape a team that went 73-89 last season in the rugged AL East. Last month, they acquired a high-priced trio â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Johnson and Buehrle on the mound, Reyes at shortstop â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in a 12-player trade with the Miami Marlins. Toronto later signed Cabrera, an All-Star outfielder with San Francisco whose season ended when he was suspended 50 games for a positive testosterone test. Dickey becomes part of a stellar Toronto rotation that includes Johnson, Buehrle and returning starters Ricky Romero and Brandon Morrow.

Duke jumps to No. 1 in AP poll Duke is back in a familiar place â&#x20AC;&#x201D; No. 1. The Blue Devils advanced one spot to replace Indiana at the top of the Associated Pressâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Top 25 on Monday, drawing closer to UCLAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record for most No. 1 rankings. Duke has reached No. 1 at least once in a record 16 seasons under coach Mike Krzyzewski, and has played more games as the No. 1 ranked team in 33 years under Coach K (209) than as an unranked team (141).

IN THIS SEPT. 27, 2012, FILE PHOTO, FORMER NEW YORK METS STARTER R.A. DICKEY PITCHES against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Citi Field in New York. The Mets traded Dickey, the NL Cy Young winner, to the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday. No team in the country has the rĂŠsumĂŠ that the Blue Devils do: They own three wins over teams ranked in the top five at the time â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thenNo. 3 Kentucky, then-No. 2 Louisville and thenNo. 4 Ohio State, all in a span of 16 days. Indiana (9-1) held the top spot from the preseason poll through the first five weeks of the season. Butler beat the Hoosiers 88-86 in overtime Saturday. The Blue Devils (9-0), whose only game in the past 21â &#x201E;2 weeks was a victory over Temple on Dec. 8, received 62 first-place votes from the 65-member national media panel. They will debut their latest No. 1 ranking at home Wednesday night against Cornell. It is the 123rd week Duke has been ranked No. 1, 11 weeks behind UCLA. All but 31 weeks of Dukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stay on top have come since the 1991-92 season. The Blue Devilsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; last time at No. 1 was an 11-week run in 2010-11. Michigan (11-0), which received the other No. 1 votes, and Syracuse moved up one place each to second and third. They were followed in the top 10 by Arizona, Louisville, Indiana, Ohio State, Florida, Kansas and Illinois. Butler (8-2), which beat then-No. 9 North Carolina last month in the EA Sports Maui Invitational, moved into the poll at No. 19. This is the Bulldogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; first appearance in the rankings since the first week of 2010-11. Wichita State (9-1) dropped out from 23rd after losing 69-60 at Tennessee. The Shockers spent two weeks in the rankings. North Carolina, with 107 weeks, is the only other school ranked No. 1 for at least 100 polls.

UConn, Baylor, Duke and Notre Dame rounded out the first five. The Irish are followed by Georgia, Kentucky, California and Maryland. Louisville fell six spots to No. 14 after losing at Colorado.

KU HOOPS NOTEBOOK
Self recalls last Richmond game By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Four current University of Richmond basketball players and three from Kansas University played in KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 77-57 NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 victory over the Spiders on March 25, 2011, in San Antonio. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got out on Richmond, 29-9, and played about as well as we could play the first half,â&#x20AC;? said KU coach Bill Self, whose Jayhawks led, 41-22 at halftime. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We traded baskets the second half. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a good program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a chance to take dominance over the city of Richmond that field,â&#x20AC;? Self added on Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hawk Talkâ&#x20AC;? radio show, noting, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we came up short versus VCU, who beat us the next game (7161 in Elite Eight).â&#x20AC;? Richmondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Darien Brothers started and had five points and Cedrick Lindsay two points,
while Derrick Williams and Greg Robbins did not score. For KU, Elijah Johnson had four points and Jeff Withey one rebound. Travis Releford played but did not score. That was a game in which both teams stared each other down in a hallway prior to pre-game warm-ups. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played them in the tournament. Their (Princeton-style) offense is a little different from what we played against,â&#x20AC;? Releford said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working on it the last few days. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be another interesting game to play.â&#x20AC;?
ing on college,â&#x20AC;? said McLemore, who is projected to be picked 17th in the first round by draftexpress.com and third by nbadraft.net. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been doing, focusing on school. The semester is over. Now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just focusing on basketball. I know a lot of people are talking about NBA. As far as me, I just strictly talk about basketball and school.â&#x20AC;? McLemoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, Kevin, is a senior guard at Normandy High in St. Louis. Is Kevin being recruited by any major colleges? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not that I know of,â&#x20AC;?

Withey-mania: Fans can follow Jeff Witheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s progress this season at witheyblockparty.com. Withey has 50 blocks, an average of 5.6 blocks per game. He has 215 career blocks, 43 shy of tying Greg Ostertagâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s KU record.

team well. What they do in practice is perfecting that offense, moving as quickly as they can to get the ball moving, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be on our toes for this game.â&#x20AC;? Junior guard Darien Brothers and sophomore forward Derrick Williams each average 14.8 points a game, while reigning A-10 rookie of the year Kendall Anthony averages 13.9 ppg and junior guard Cedrick Lindsay 10.7 ppg. Formerly coached by Jerry Wainwright, Richmond defeated KU, 69-68, in Allen Fieldhouse during Bill Selfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first season at KU. The Jayhawks stopped the Spiders, 7757, on March 25, 2011, in an NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 game in San Antonio. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I watched that game live (on TV),â&#x20AC;? White said of the NCAA contest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;KU had guys like the (Morris) twins, Brady (Morningstar) ... as a matter of fact, four weeks ago, before I even looked to this game, I watched that tape along with the VCU tape (KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 71-61 loss in Elite Eight) to see what was going on a couple years ago. I have a fresh memory of that Sweet 16 game in my head.â&#x20AC;? White is coming off his finest outing of the sea-

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FRESHMAN ANDREW WHITE III MEETS THE PRESS prior to practice Monday, the eve of the Jayhawksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; meeting with Richmond. son. The 6-foot-6 guard/ forward scored a careerhigh 15 points off 6-of-8 shooting while playing 10 minutes of Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 8960 rout of Belmont. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a lot of confidence going into this game,â&#x20AC;? White said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I always try to be confident. Just because I had a good shooting game doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change a whole lot for me. If I get in, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to go with the same approach, play as hard as I can and contribute on both ends of the court.â&#x20AC;? Of White, KU coach Self said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think he can add some things to our team. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another weapon. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s learning, growing. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fabulous kid. He just wants to try to fit in and help. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a guy you
can put in there, and if he makes a couple (threes), great. If not, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good enough in other areas heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to hurt us. I need to play him more, to be candid.â&#x20AC;? Senior Travis Releford says he is confident when White (5.1 ppg off 50 percent shooting; 7-of-15 from three) enters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Andrew is one of the best shooters on our team. To see him with the confidence he has and coach has for him was a good feeling and good sign for our team,â&#x20AC;? Releford said of Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always looked for his shot. Coach tells him to look for it, because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a good shooter. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to keep him from shooting the ball.â&#x20AC;?

only attempted three more the rest of her junior season). â&#x20AC;&#x153;For her to get her three back up,â&#x20AC;? Goodrich said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gonna be really good for our team.â&#x20AC;? Even though Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play Engelman late against A&M (because she wanted CeCe Harper defending the Panthersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Latia Williams), she called Engelmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 11 points, eight rebounds and four assists one of the starting guardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best efforts of the season. Engelman agreed: â&#x20AC;&#x153;More than anything, I was more aggressive. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what made it a better game compared to the rest.â&#x20AC;? After averaging 12.1 points as a sophomore and 7.8 as a junior, Engelman has scored six or fewer points in five of KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first 10 games. Henrickson said the No. 19 Jayhawks need Engelman to provide a scoring punch to compliment senior forward Carolyn Davis (15.9 points) and Goodrich (12.6). According to Goodrich, Engelman, who scored a career-best 24 points her sophomore year against Fordham, looked a little more like her old self Sunday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen it before. Her sophomore year and freshman year, she was a player that had a lot of potential, brought a lot to the team,â&#x20AC;? Goodrich said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know she can do it. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a senior now. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s her last year. She should be excited to go out with a bang.â&#x20AC;? Positivity has not been a problem for Engelman, who has gone 32-for-83 from the floor (39 percent) and averaged 7.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.0 assists this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m struggling with making shots, when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m struggling with something else, I can always contribute,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So if thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting a stop, getting a steal, getting a rebound, then Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still contributing to the team though I may not be as involved scoring.â&#x20AC;? Her 25 offensive rebounds lead KU, and Henrickson is encouraged every time she sees Engelman attack the offensive glass or get to the rim, because those plays lead to drawing fouls. Engelman hit 87 percent of her free throws as a junior and has made all eight attempts this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want her to just settle for jump shots,â&#x20AC;? Henrickson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want her to be more aggressive, because that (free throws) is great offense for her.â&#x20AC;? As far as scoring totals go, Engelman, who has 900 career points, doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think negatively after a low output. Nor does she keep a specific number she wants to hit each time she plays. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather just let it happen,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m scoring a little bit more now.â&#x20AC;? When Engelman looked at the box score after Kansas beat Prairie View A&M, she was more upset about failing to get 10 rebounds than she has been after any of her low-scoring games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gonna come,â&#x20AC;? Engelman said of improving her shooting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you work hard, if you do what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re supposed to do, the points are gonna come.â&#x20AC;? Not that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stressing over it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d much rather get a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; instead of having 50,000 points,â&#x20AC;? Engelman said.

might want to shorten her words so she fits in better. Of course, she may become protective of her accent, believing it is linked to her identity, and be resistant to change.

Athletes’ feats are highlighted Signs that we’ll soon be auld lang syne-ing our way out of 2012 arrive with increasing frequency. “Real Sports With Bryant Gumbel” (9 p.m., HBO) gathers a round table of wise men and women (including Mary Carillo, Frank Deford, Jon Frankel, Bernard Goldberg, Armen Keteyian and Andrea Kremer) to discuss and review the best sports stories of the year. In addition to the headlinegrabbing wins and losses, Gumbel’s panel recalls Jeb Corliss, who donned a pair of wings and “flew” off Table Mountain in South Africa; Alex Zanardi, a former Formula 1 driver who did not let an accident, and the loss of both legs, slow him down; and the Isle of Man’s dangerous motorcycle race, a competition that has claimed more than 230 lives over the years. I’m no sportswriter, but two stories that conveniently dovetail with my New York fandom stand out. Who could resist Linsanity? This time last year, Jeremy Lin was sitting on the New York Knicks bench and sleeping on a friend’s couch. But after a teammate’s injury made him a starter, he led the team to one of the most exciting winning streaks in New York history. In a sports world filled with big egos, Lin reacted to instant celebrity with modesty, good humor and expressions of faith. Last December, few would wager that 38-year-old New York Mets pitcher R.A. Dickey would compile a 20-3 record and win Major League Baseball’s Cy Young Award. Like Lin, Dickey projects a thoughtful side, and he has said he would have become an English professor had he not taken up baseball. And, like Lin, he is centered by his beliefs. Lin has since left New York, and Dickey’s future is uncertain, but both men certainly made the sports world a little brighter in 2012.

Incorporate them once you are sure that they are applicable. Tonight: Get a nap first. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Zero in on your priorities. Others need to know them if you want to have their support. Tonight: Out among the crowds. Gemini (May 21-June 20) A boss or older friend pushes you to such an extent that you might want to ditch him or her and leave the scene.

a handful arrived. My point is this: When asked to RSVP to an event, DO SO. Don’t ignore it or ask the bride to pass on your regrets. She has enough details on her plate right now. It takes just a minute to respond to an invitation, and it is just plain rude not to. — Too Many Leftovers Dear Leftovers: We agree, but this problem has been around so long, we suspect your words of warning will go unheeded. So this is for the hosts: If someone has not RSVP’d to an invitation by the date requested, please phone them and find out whether they plan to come. (We hope invitees will be embarrassed enough that it will inspire them to behave ACROSS better next time.) — Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O.

will enjoy this popularity, both professionally and personally. Tonight: Go along with plans. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your mind is full of creative ideas and solutions, but you might not be demonstrating and applying them. As a result, an opportunity could be lost. Tonight: Get some exercise. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Allow your imagination to freely wander, but be careful. If you burst into laughter, everyone will want more information than you choose to give. Tonight: Pretend that it’s the weekend. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Comparing you with a stick in the mud generally does not apply, but today is different. Adapt your schedule accordingly. Tonight: Play the role of couch potato. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) No one can say that you aren’t expressive in letting others know what’s on your mind. Nevertheless, someone just does not get it. Tonight: Run an errand on the way to meet a friend. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Know that you aren’t the only one trying to stretch a dollar. Talk to friends if you are in a jam, and get suggestions on how to complete your holiday shopping. Tonight: Balance your checkbook. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be surfing the wave of life, as you feel content and valued. Take a second to enjoy these feelings. Tonight: Your wish is someone’s command! — The astrological forecast should be read for entertainment only.

Dear Annie: For the past 18 months, I’ve been dating a woman who resides two states south. We are planning on her moving north to live with me. My problem is her thick Southern accent. ‘‘Beth” habitually holds the last word of a sentence and draws it out. Her voice slides up and down when saying a simple word such as “town” so that it has multiple syllables. A couple of my friends have also noticed how pronounced her drawl is. I have hinted to Beth about it on occasion, but it hasn’t made a difference. I have to admit, this speech pattern is both repulsive and abrasive to me. Beth has many loving qualities, but I worry about the drawl. I can barely tolerate it now, and I fear it will eventually drive me crazy.
