Disability education to get a boost

LEGISLATIVE SESSION BEGINS

FOLLOW THE MAJORITY Starting today, all eyes will be on conservatives’ plan to reshape Kansas

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

A

s the 2015 legislative session gets underway today, conservative Republicans will enjoy an almost unprecedented level of power, giving them a unique opportunity to reshape government.

From overhauling the school finance system to changing the way state Supreme Court justices are chosen and revamping local government elections, analysts say conservative Republicans in the Kansas Legislature now have the chance to consolidate a vast amount of political power under the Legislature and governor.

“It makes sense for Gov. (Sam) Brownback,” said Chapman Rackaway, a political science professor at Fort Hays State University. “His philosophy from the very beginning has been that he thinks the Democrats have been able to pepper other branches with appointees and people who thwart his agenda from going through, and so he

Top issues to watch:

By Elliot Hughes Twitter: @elliothughes12

l State budget: One of the first issues lawmakers will face is

Gov. Sam Brownback’s plan to close a projected $280 million revenue shortfall in this year’s budget. His plan, much of which needs legislative approval, fills much of the hole with one-time transfers of money from other funds into the state general fund, creating about a $648 million budget hole for next year. Brownback will outline his budget plan when he gives the State of the State address at 6:30 p.m. Thursday. l School finance: On Dec. 30, a three-judge panel in Topeka ruled for a second time that public schools in Kansas are unconstitutionally under-funded and suggested as much as $548 million in additional money might be needed to correct the problem. K-12 education funding already makes up about half of the state budget.

The state is likely to appeal the ruling, which could delay the need to take action for at least another year. But Brownback and many Republicans have said they want to completely overhaul the school finance system that has been in place since 1992. l KPERS: Lawmakers passed a major overhaul of

the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System in 2012, but this year the state is having trouble making the increased contributions that were promised for the troubled pension system.

Brownback has called for taking another look at the pension system and has even suggested turning it over to a private insurance company to manage.

A project funded by one of the largest research grants in Kansas University history and that aims to change education for students with severe cognitive disabilities is nearing completion.

“This is really the start of something that I expect is going to eventually radically SCHOOLS change education,” said Neal Kingston, the man behind the project.

Since 2010, Kingston, a KU professor of psychology and education research, and his colleagues have been working to build a new system for state education departments for measuring the progress of students with cognitive disabilities.

The project is called Dynamic Learning Maps. It’s a computer program that essentially visualizes all the things a student should learn, in successive order, in English language arts and math.

And it orders it all like a massive road map, displaying different paths a student can take to learn a skill, such as understanding what an emotion is and building up to why a character in a text would feel a certain emotion.

If a student is having trouble learning a skill, the map allows teachers to track back and identify a gap in the student’s knowledge that blocks him or her from advancing.

“You need a road map,” Kingston said. “That’s what we’re about.”

Brittany Reynolds, a bartender, said that she wasn’t surprised at all to hear about the ranking and that bartenders in Lawrence make good money. But Reynolds, who bartends at Louise’s, 1009 Massachusetts St., said that despite the benefits to business, she hopes people act responsibly.

“We always hope that everyone is safe and doesn’t take it too far,” Reynolds said.

Lawrence resident Brian Bay said he was surprised at the top ranking because the drinking in Lawrence seems typical of a college town.

“In any college town, there’s going to be a lot of drinking,” Bay said.

“There’s nothing unusual compared to other college towns in America.”

But for now, his mission is to give students with cognitive disabilities a better chance at acquiring academic skills.

He said it is too often thought that students of this kind should be mainly taught functional skills, like learning how to dress themselves.

“It starts with the improving of the lives of these children,” he said.

“It starts by providing models for teachers — what can be done, how children can learn better and more.

“It starts by giving children control over their lives. Many of these children have no control over anything in their lives.”

Old framing raises risk of home fires

Celtic concert

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @conrad_swanson

Throughout the winter months, firefighters often see an increase in the number of house fires, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Chief Mark Bradford said.

Some of those fires are worse than others, and the framYou will have ing method faster fire spread used when the home in the balloon-type was built construction than can have a you would the big impact on the se- other, and a greater verity of a chance of severe fire, Brad- damage.” ford explained.

B e t w e e n — Lawrence-Douglas County the 1830s Fire Medical Chief and the Mark Bradford mid-1900s, most wooden homes were built using a method called balloon framing, Bradford said. With this method, the house’s studs extend the entire height of the home.

“The walls are open from the crawlspace or basement all the way up to the attic,” he said. “You will have faster fire spread in the balloon-type construction than you would the other, and a greater chance of severe damage.”

Around the 1950s, the balloon framing method was replaced by platform framing, where each floor of a home is framed separately, Bradford explained.

“So if you have a fire, it stops it at that floor level and doesn’t allow that to go up,” he said. “And that’s the way it’s still used today.”

Pat Smith, a home inspector for McKinney Home Inspection, said there isn’t a surefire way of knowing what type of home someone in Douglas County is living in.

“It’s kind of all based on the year the house was built in, the era and who built it, really,” Smith said. “If everything is sheet-rocked over or plastered over, it’s really hard to tell exactly what’s there and whether it’s a balloon frame or a regular stick-built home.”

Because it’s difficult to tell from a home’s exterior how it’s constructed, Bradford said, Lawrence firefighters take precautions when they enter any house.

“Normally, we’ll send someone to the attic almost immediately, regardless of where the fire is,” he said. “Because we will have fire extension throughout. In (a balloon frame house), you’re going to have fire spreading vertically and theoretically fairly quickly.”

There are precautions firefighters can take when approaching a fire, but there is little someone can do in a balloon-frame house, Bradford said. That doesn’t mean residents should panic, he added.

If a homeowner is already renovating a balloon-framed house, then they can place two-by-fours in the open spaces between the floors to act as a fire stop, Bradford said.

Realistically, Bradford added, it’s best for residents to simply be aware of their surroundings and take normal fire precautions.

Big Brothers Big Sisters needs over 100 mentors

By Rochelle Valverde

“

Twitter: @LJWorld

January is National Month, but because of a lack of male volunteers Big Brothers Big Sisters of Douglas County is limiting the number of boys accepted for its mentor programs.

To match a mentor to every child already on the waiting list, which is about 75 percent boys, BBBS needs more than 100 additional volunteers, said Leilani Tuttle, program director.

“It’s very disappointing for the boys to wait, wait, wait,” Tuttle said.

The need is actually significantly more than 100 volunteers, but BBBS stopped accepting additional boys for the Community-Based program waiting list because some were waiting two to three years before receiving a mentor, Tuttle said. The Bigs in Schools program, which requires a lesser time commitment from vol-

— Leilani Tuttle, program director for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Douglas County unteers, is still open to both boys and girls.

Once BBBS matches a mentor with a child for the program, the pair decides on activities to do together around town. Tuttle said activities like going for a walk or hike, playing a game or going out for ice cream are simple but can make a difference.

“It’s like planting little seeds,” Tuttle said. “I think what comes from that is those kids learn that they are cared about, that they’re worthy and they really do gain confidence.”

Community-Based program mentors spend one to two hours with their

“little” three to four times per month for at least a year. Bigs in Schools program mentors visit their little for about 30 minutes per week during the child’s lunch or after-school program for a minimum of two semesters. Volunteers are needed for both programs, Tuttle said.

Men, women, married couples and families can volunteer to mentor a child. Informal information sessions are held every Tuesday at 5:15 p.m. and Wednesday at noon at the United Way, 2518 Ridge Court. For more information, visit douglas.kansasbigs.org or call 843-7359.

ON THE RECORD Marriages

Officials called 17 times in abuse case Wichita — Prosecutors have learned that Kansas welfare officials were contacted 17 times before police removed a 14-yearold girl who weighed just 66 pounds from her home.

The Wichita Eagle reports that the Kansas Department of Children and Families initially provided prosecutors information about nine allegations of abuse or neglect. But prosecutors, acting on questions raised by The Eagle, recently discovered eight additional reports of suspected abuse.

The 14-year-old girl and three other children were taken into protective custody in March. A child-inneed-of-care petition alleges that the girl’s adoptive parents at times chained her in a basement and gave her a bucket to use as a toilet.

The parents have denied the allegations.

Deal paves way for Dale Willey to expand E

ven with recent weather so cold that my wife actually has consented to turn the thermostat up to 59 degrees and will allow me to shear an extra sheep for the kids, I do know of one place that is hot. South Iowa Street continues to be the hot spot for big commercial real estate deals. The latest is a deal by Dale Willey Automotive to accommodate a significant expansion of the Chevrolet/GMC dealership.

The dealership has completed a deal to purchase the Pay-Less furniture and mattress store at 2800 Iowa St., which is just up the street from the dealership’s current location at 2840 Iowa St. The dealership for several years has owned the large car wash that is between the furniture store and the dealership. Jeff Hornbeck, general manager of the dealership, told me the purchase will allow an expansion of the dealership. Those plans are still in development, but Hornbeck said the furniture store location likely will become the headquarters for a larger used car division of the dealership.

“It really will just give us more lot space for everything,” Hornbeck said.

That’s right. Now that you have finished chipping through the ice in your cereal bowl, you have started to comprehend what this

wants to have a bit of interbranch supremacy at Cedar Crest.”

Conservatives first took control of the Legislature after the 2012 elections, Rackaway said, when Brownback and his allies backed conservative challengers in the GOP primaries and successfully unseated a number of moderate Republicans in the state Senate.

“What we saw in 2014 was a validation of the single-faction control that was granted to conservatives in 2012,” Rackaway said.

Not only did Brownback win reelection in 2014, Republicans also picked up five seats in the Kansas House, where the GOP now has a 97-28 majority over Democrats, the widest margin since the 1953-54 session.

Rep. Tom Sloan, a moderate Republican from Lawrence, said during a Chamber of Commerce breakfast Thursday that moderates now hold only about 23 of those 97 seats, meaning the other 74 are held by conservatives.

That’s more than enough to pass legislation in the 125-member House, where it takes a simple majority of 63 votes to pass a bill. And as long as those 74 conservatives stay unified, they would only need to find an additional 10 votes to reach the two-thirds majority needed to pass a constitutional amendment.

In the Senate, the GOP has a 32-8 majority over Democrats, and conservatives have shown several times that they can muster a two-thirds majority, or 27 votes, on key issues.

article really means. No more buying a bargain mattress from the most brightly painted store on South Iowa Street.

No more back-up plan of becoming a ninja-like, sign-spinning marketer of incredibly low-priced mattresses, sofas, love seats and other such furniture pieces that have frequently been advertised at many a street corner by Pay-Less sign holders over the years.

Hornbeck said current plans call for the furniture store to remain in business at the location for the next several months. Technically, our plans to become sign spinners may still be alive. I haven’t yet gotten in touch with the owner of the Pay-Less business to determine whether he plans to reopen elsewhere in Lawrence or if this marks the end for the company. I’ll let you know when I get an update on that.

As for the dealership, this latest deal continues a trend of strong growth for Dale Willey. The company became the

“Crucial here is not so much how the Republican right addresses specific questions, like the budget or school funding, but how it seeks to restructure state government in many ways,” Loomis said.

Loomis has written previously that political power in Kansas has traditionally been spread diffusely between state and local governments, and among various branches and agencies within state government.

But in recent years that has been the source of increasing tension as conservatives have grown in numbers in the Legislature, only to see many of their policies blocked or stymied by the courts and, to some extent, the Kansas State Board of Education.

That tension came to a head in 2005 when the Kansas Supreme Court first declared state funding for public schools unconstitutional and ordered the Legislature to increase spending by hundreds of millions of dollars.

Conservatives, who then controlled a majority of the Republican caucus but not a majority of the House as a whole, at first refused to

expand Medicaid. Many hospitals, especially those in rural areas, also support an expansion because the same federal law also reduces their Medicare reimbursement rates.

Brownback and most Republicans in the Legislature oppose the idea. l Abortion: Anti-abortion groups are lobbying this year for a bill that would ban abortions once a fetal heartbeat can be detected, which is usually about six to seven weeks into a pregnancy. A bill to that effect was introduced in 2013 but did not pass. l Gay rights/religious freedom: Last year the Kansas House passed a bill that would make it legal for individuals to refuse to provide service or accommodations to same-sex couples if doing so would violate their religious beliefs. It quickly died in the Senate amid a storm of protest from business groups that said it would interfere with personnel policies of private businesses. In light of recent court rulings making gay marriage legal in Kansas, at least for now, supporters of the so-called “religious freedom” bill are expected to bring it up again.

comply. They argued that only the Legislature has the power to appropriate money, and therefore only they could determine what is adequate funding for education.

This year, another court ruling on school finance hangs over the Legislature, only this time conservatives hold a clear majority in both chambers.

“Clearly, they want to change the school funding formula and the constitutional language on equity,” Loomis said. He thinks many on the right would like to see vouchers enacted.

“In short, this would completely change the state’s approach to public education,” Loomis said.

nor wants selection of all judges to be consolidated under the governor’s office, and so that’s going to be a front-burner issue for this Legislature,” Rackaway said. “They’ll get it done. They have plenty of loyalty to the governor.

They share his goal on this.

So I think that would be a pretty easy thing for them to get done.”

Rackaway said another major issue likely to come up this year will be moving the dates of municipal and school board elections to coincide with state and federal elections in November of even-numbered years, and possibly making them partisan races.

Currently, those offices are nonpartisan, and the local elections are held in April of odd-numbered years.

“It could certainly give the state GOP the opportunity to exercise more control over the local level,” Rackaway said. “But it also opens up the opportunity for significantly higher turnout and perhaps more attention paid to those races and issues than we see now.”

Rackaway said one thing that may moderate the urge to consolidate power is the knowledge that circumstances change, and that conservatives won’t always control the Legislature, and Brownback won’t always be the governor.

“Then all of a sudden, all of that consolidation of power under the governor’s office that Brownback wanted can be used to deconstruct everything that he has put together,” Rackaway said.

Rackaway said he thinks the highest priority for conservatives this year will be gaining control of the judiciary by changing the way Supreme Court justices are selected.

Currently, the Kansas Constitution provides that an independent nominating committee made up mostly of lawyers screens candidates and submits three names to the governor, who then selects one.

A similar statute existed for Court of Appeals judges, but conservatives successfully changed that through legislation in 2013 so that now the governor appoints appellate court — Peter Hancock can be reached at judges, subject to Senate 785-354-4222.

The other race The Lawrence school board also is in need of strong, qualified candidates.

T

he Lawrence City Commission election is drawing more than the usual amount of interest this year, but the Lawrence school board race has gotten little attention — and that’s too bad.

The local school board plays an important role in the community and is responsible for setting policy for one of Lawrence’s greatest assets: its public schools. The job is particularly demanding right now because of the uncertainty surrounding the amount of state school funding and the manner in which it is allocated.

By Friday, only three candidates had filed for a seat on the board. Because two unexpired terms on the board were filled by appointment in the last year, local voters will elect five members of the seven-member board on April 7.

The five board members whose terms will expire on June 30 are Bob Byers, Marcel Harmon, Rick Ingram, Shannon Kimball and Randy Masten. Ingram and Kimball are the only incumbents who have filed in the race. They are joined

by Lindsey Frye, a member of New York Elementary’s Parent-Teacher Association. Candidates have until noon on Jan. 27 to file for election.

Unfortunately, it’s not unusual for the school board race to attract a small field. In 2013, four candidates ran for three seats on the board. Board members serve without pay in a job that makes them the target of criticism far more often than praise.

It’s no wonder that the field usually is small, but the interests of both local school children and local taxpayers depend on the willingness of well-motivated and knowledgeable individuals being willing to serve. Board members need to represent the community as a whole and not be beholden to the interests of a particular neighborhood or group. The best board members know that the right decision isn’t always the one that makes everyone happy.

It’s not an easy job, but it’s an important one.

The Lawrence City Commission race appears to be headed toward a large slate that presents some real choices to local voters. Hopefully, by the time the filing deadline rolls around two weeks from now, the same will be true of the school board field.

Low gas prices spur talk of tax hike Washington — For 32 years I’ve been advocating a major tax on petroleum. I’ve got as much chance this time around as did Don Quixote with windmills. But I shall tilt my lance once more.

The only time you can even think of proposing a gas tax increase is when oil prices are at rock bottom. When I last suggested the idea six years ago, oil was selling at $40 a barrel. It eventually rose back to $110. It’s now around $48.

Correspondingly, the price at the pump has fallen in the last three months by more than a dollar to about $2.20 per gallon.

As a result, some in Congress are talking about a 10or 20-cent hike in the federal tax to use for infrastructure spending. Right idea, wrong policy. The hike should not be 10 cents but $1. And the proceeds should not be spent by, or even entrusted to, the government. They should be immediately and entirely returned to the consumer by means of a cut in the Social Security tax.

The average American buys about 12 gallons of gas a week. Washington would be soaking him for $12 in extra taxes. Washington should therefore simultaneously reduce everyone’s FICA tax by $12 a week. Thus the average driver is left harmless. He receives a $12 per week FICA bonus that he can spend on gasoline if he wants — or anything else.

If he chooses to drive less,

“

The hike should not be 10 cents but $1. And the proceeds should not be spent by, or even entrusted to, the government. They should be immediately and entirely returned to the consumer by means of a cut in the Social Security tax.” it puts money in his pocket.

(The unemployed would have the $12 added to their unemployment insurance; the elderly, added to their Social Security check.)

The point of the $1 gas tax increase is not to feed the maw of a government raking in $3 trillion a year. The point is exclusively to alter incentives — to reduce the disincentive for work (the Social Security tax) and to increase the disincentive to consume gasoline.

It’s win-win. Employment taxes are a drag on job creation. Reducing them not only promotes growth but ad-

vances fairness, FICA being a regressive tax that hits the middle and working classes far more than the rich.

As for oil, we remain the world champion consumer.

We burn more than 20 percent of global output, almost twice as much as the next nearest gas guzzler, China.

A $1 gas tax increase would constrain oil consumption in two ways. In the short run, by curbing driving. In the long run, by altering car-buying habits. A return to gas-guzzling land yachts occurs every time gasoline prices plunge. A high gas tax encourages demand for more fuel-efficient vehicles. Constrained U.S. consumption — combined with already huge increases in U.S. production — would continue to apply enormous downward pressure on oil prices.

A tax is the best way to improve fuel efficiency. Today we do it through rigid regulations, the so-called CAFE standards imposed on carmakers. They are forced to manufacture acres of unsellable cars in order to meet an arbitrary, bureaucratic “fleet” gas-consumption average.

This is nuts. If you simply set a higher price point for gasoline, buyers will do the sorting on their own, choosing fuel efficiency just as they do when the world price is high. The beauty of the tax — as a substitute for a high world price — is that the incentive for fuel efficiency remains, but the extra money collected at the pump goes

right back into the U.S. economy (and to the citizenry through the revenue-neutral FICA rebate) instead of being shipped overseas to Russia, Venezuela, Iran and other unsavories.

Which is a geopolitical coup. Cheap oil is the most effective and efficient instrument known to man for weakening these oil-dependent miscreants.

And finally, lower consumption reduces pollution and greenhouse gases. The reduction of traditional pollutants, though relatively minor, is an undeniable gain.

And even for global warming skeptics, there’s no reason not to welcome a benign measure that induces prudential reductions in CO2 emissions.

The unexpected and unpredicted collapse of oil prices gives us a unique opportunity to maintain our good luck through a simple, revenue-neutral measure to help prevent the perennial price spikes that follow the fool’s paradise of ultra-cheap oil.

We’ve blown this chance at least three times since the 1980s. As former French Foreign Minister Jean Francois-Poncet said a quartercentury ago, “It’s hard to take seriously that a nation has deep problems if they can be fixed with a 50-centa-gallon” — 90 cents in today’s money — “gasoline tax.” Let’s not blow it again.

K-12 science standards key to Kansas success

By Marcel Harmon

Astrophysicist and well-known science advocate Neil deGrasse Tyson once said that “science literacy is the artery through which the solutions of tomorrow’s problems flow.” From the depletion of the Ogallala Aquifer (the main source of water in the western third of our state) to maximizing Kansas’ renewable energy potential, our state has a long list of complex challenges and opportunities to address over the coming years. And this will require a combination of well prepared engineers and scientists working with policy makers, government officials and citizens with a grasp of science and engi- Harmon neering.

The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), a set of K-12 benchmarks establishing what students should know and be able to do in science and engineering at each grade, were developed with this in mind — to increase the depth of science and engineering understanding, not just for future scientists and engineers, but for every student.

The Kansas State Board of Education adopted these standards in 2013 and renamed them the Kansas College and Career Ready Standards for Science (KCCRSS).

Much has already been written about the need for more technical professionals, how a strong K-12 science and engineering curriculum forms the base of a strong Kansas economy and how greater science and engineering literacy is needed among the general population. However, another key benefit of these science standards is the interdisciplinary nature that has been built into them.

Scientists and engineers, whether in academia, government or the private sector, commonly work in integrated, interdisciplinary teams that blur traditional boundaries to provide the most creative and effective solutions. For example, keeping people thermally comfortable within a building, while also maximizing other aspects of building and occupant performance, is a complex problem involving an understanding of principles ranging from heat and sound transfer to organizational development.

YOUR TURN To do this, mechanical engineers must work closely with architects, daylighting specialists, energy modelers, electrical engineers, structural engineers, acoustical engineers, contractors, facility managers and controls specialists. And increasingly, with the recognition that a deeper understanding of occupant wants/needs is critical for a successful built environment(i.e., social/ cultural factors often have a larger influence on clothing choice than maintaining thermal comfort), anthropologists and other behavioral experts are also being consulted.

The NGSS/KCCRSS recognizes this blurring of traditional boundaries and seeks to provide students a deeper understanding of core scientific and engineering concepts that cross-cut disciplines. It’s also intended to expose students to locally relevant, real world applications that extend outward to include the arts, history, agriculture, etc. This is necessary preparation for high school graduates who are ready to take the next step in becoming engineers and scientists capable of effectively working in interdisciplinary teams to solve 21st century problems. Just as important, the standards intend to equip students with the foundational scientific and engineering literacy needed to be citizens in our 21st century democracy.

However, adequate public education funding is required for successful implementation as well as the development of assessments that don’t compromise the primary goals of the standards, including their interdisciplinary focus.

It will take dedicated personnel allowed to devote the necessary time, from the state level down to our individual school districts.

But Kansas’ current inadequate levels of education spending—confirmed by the recent court ruling in the Gannon case — with potential additional cuts as a result of the state’s looming budget crisis, is a significant threat to successful implementation of the KCCRSS. In several ways, Kansas public education is at a crossroads this legislative session, and the choices made will either open up or further clog the artery through which the solutions of our state’s future problems flow.

— Marcel Harmon has an interdisciplinary background in anthropology and engineering, was a member of the Kansas NGSS Review Committee and is a Lawrence school board member.

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Jan. 12, 1915: “Ground was broken this morning by John Constant at 1201 Oread avenue for the years first real apartment house in Lawrence. ago The house will occupy a tract of ground IN 1915 with a frontage of 100 feet on Oread and over sixty feet on Twelfth and will have eight apartments, four on the first floor and four on the second. The house will be built upon lines recently worked out in the east and will be particularly desirable for families of two. In a space of 19x23 feet plans are worked out which give a living room, clothes closet, bath room, bed room, dining room and kitchenette. The kitchenette which is about 5x10 feet contains sink, stationary table, range refrigerator and kitchen cabinet…. Between the bath room and the kitchenette is a space which during the day is used as a dining room and at night, by removing the table and pressing a button, a wall cabinet drops and forms a bed with springs and mattress complete. The advantage of an apartment of this sort is that very little furniture is required. In fact with a few chairs, a library table, a book case and a few rugs you are ready for housekeeping.”

Step 5: Overlap the two ends of the gasket and cut the gasket 1 inch longer than needed. Cut the second end at an angle opposite the first to allow the ends to fit snugly together within the groove.

Step 6: Remove the gasket material and coat the inside of the groove with a bead of gasket cement. Smooth the glue along the channel and up the sides of the groove.

Step 7: Gently place the gasket material into the groove, starting in the middle of one side of the door. Press gently to ensure the material is adhered properly.

Step 8: Once the gasket fully encompasses

the door, cut away excess material, press the end into place and coat the joint with some additional gasket cement to keep the ends from fraying.

Step 9: Allow the cement to set for a few minutes and remount the stove door.

Step 10: Tape a piece of paper over the glued gasket joint to keep it from sticking to the stove. Shut the door and lock it into place.

Step 11: Open the door and test the seal by placing a piece of paper between the door and the stove. Shut the door. If the paper pulls out easily the seal will need to be built up by gluing additional gasket material beneath the new gasket.

Step 12: Properly sealed, the door should shut easily and a piece of paper should be difficult to pull out along the perimeter.

ood-burning stoves require a tight seal around their door for optimal efficiency. Replacing a worn-out fiberglass gasket is an important part of stove maintenance.

Step 1: Measure the width and length of the existing gasket. Purchase a new gasket similar in size, but slightly longer, along with some stove gasket cement.

Step 2: With the fire out and the stove cool to the touch, remove the stove door and lay it on a protected flat surface.

Step 3: Pull away all remnants of the old gasket. Use a screwdriver and hammer to chisel away dried gasket cement. Use a wire brush and steel wool to thoroughly clean the gasket groove.

Step 4: Cut one end of the gasket material at an angle and lay the new gasket into the groove.

Start in the middle of the door perimeter. Keep the material loose. Do not stretch or clump it.

History awaits Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

This coach brought to you by ____ Jim Harbaugh has a new title. As most know, he no longer is the San Francisco 49ers head football coach.

What many might not know is that Harbaugh now is Michigan’s “J. Ira and Nicki Harris Family Head Football Coach.”

That’s right, a maize-andblue-crazed family donated $1 million in exchange for the naming and endowment of the head football coach position at Michigan. It happened last February, before which time the coach’s name simply was Brady Hoke. Then inflation kicked in, and Harbaugh signed a seven-year contract that guarantees him a $5 million salary in each of the first three years, $5.5 million in the fourth and fifth years and $6.05 million in the sixth and seventh years.

Incentives reportedly could bring his average annual salary to nearly $8 million.

When you’re packing The Big House, which holds 109,901 spectators, it’s easier to pay football coaches than when you rank fourthlast among power-five conference schools in attendance, as did Kansas, which had absolutely no shot at hiring Harbaugh this time.

The endowing and naming of coaching positions is in its infancy, but since it brings in cash, the practice will mushroom.

Soon, corporations or small businesses — depending on the enormity of the position — will get into the arena, cranking up namingrights prices. It won’t stop there.

Fast-forward 10 years.

For the first time, a basketball coach, in order to finance the long overdue football stadium renovations at his school, agrees to sell naming rights to him, not to his position, but to him as a human being.

It’s announced at a news conference in the middle of a season in which the coach is trying to figure out how to motivate his team, ravaged by early exits to the NBA, to its 21st consecutive Big 12 regular-season title.

After discussing the naming-rights issue, coach Warren Buffett reviews particulars of that day’s game.

Dallas (ap) — Ohio State and Oregon will meet in a game that has never been played for a trophy that has never been raised.

The winner tonight in North Texas can be called the truest champion in the history of major-college football.

The first College Football Playoff national championship game matches the second-seeded Ducks and fourth-seeded Buckeyes at AT&T Stadium.

“It’s college football history,” Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said Sunday during a news conference with Oregon coach Mark Helfrich, with that new championship trophy sitting in between them.

The days of bowls, polls and the BCS having the final say about who is No. 1 are over.

The playoff that fans wanted for

Oregon, Ohio St. so long — and finally got — will determine a single champion.

Oregon (13-1) and its Heisman Trophywinning quarterback Marcus Mariota are in search of the program’s first national title, the last remaining goal for a school that has barged onto the national stage over the last two

decades with ostentatious flare and flashy uniforms.

Ohio State (13-1) is shooting for national championship No. 5, but the first under coach Urban Meyer, who returned to his home state three years ago to take over a college football goliath that was looking to start its next golden age.

Tradition rich vs. cutting edge.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SENIOR GUARD ASIA BOYD (0) LOSES THE BALL UNDER THE BASKET while being double-teamed by Kansas State’s Shaelyn Martin (50) and Breanna Lewis during the Jayhawks’ 58-52 loss Sunday in Manhattan.

Wildcats make most of KU turnovers

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Manhattan — Kansas University women’s basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson and her Jayhawks walked off the Bramlage Coliseum court Sunday afternoon disappointed in what transpired in the Sunflower Showdown, and regardless of what hap-

pens next, they’ll look back at the rivalry game as a win they gave away.

KU turned the ball over 14 times in the second half, only hit six of 23 field goals in the final 20 minutes and saw a 14-point first-half lead vanish in a 58-52 loss to Kansas State.

“We’re our own worst enemy,” Henrickson said after

Kansas failed to earn its first Big 12 win and turned the ball over 23 times, leading to 21 KState points. “We just let it go and were careless and lackadaisical.”

Sure, K-State (11-3, 1-2) forced some of those miscues, but Henrickson said far too many KU giveaways were self-inflicted.

“We’ve gotta be better,

more disciplined,” the coach said, “attack and make the right decisions.”

An issue throughout the loss, turnovers plagued KU (9-7, 0-3) for a span of more than six minutes early in the second half. The Jayhawks lost the ball six times, coinciding with an 0-for-7 scoring Please see KU WOMEN, page 3B

Jayhawks go wild over Garrett’s goal

Please see KEEGAN, page 3B Garrett

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Wayne Selden leaped high into the air on the Kansas University basketball bench, teammate Devonté Graham breaking his fall on the way down as both Jayhawks joined a wild celebration after senior Christian Garrett scored the first

basket of his college career with 1:56 left in Saturday’s 86-54 rout of Texas Tech in Allen Fieldhouse.

Also, Jamari Traylor jumped up and down while pumping his right fist, Hunter Mickelson and Cliff Alexander waved towels wildly, Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk and Kelly Oubre Jr. screamed and Brannen Greene and

Perry Ellis pranced about with smiles on their faces in recognition of the 6-foot-3, 185-pounder’s drive through the lane and floater that drew nothing but net.

“Coach told us to run normal ball-screen offense, but he definitely had everybody open the lane up so I could drive it and score,” said Garrett, who breezed by two

Meyer’s milestone Meyer can become the second coach in college football history to win national championships with two schools, joining Nick Saban, who won the BCS title in 2003 with LSU and then three more titles with Alabama.

Meyer won national titles with Florida in 2006 and 2008.

A third championship would make Meyer the ninth coach in college football’s poll era (dating to 1936) to win at least three championships. Bear Bryant leads with the six he won at Alabama.

Super Mariota Mariota can become the seventh Heisman Trophy winner since 1996 to win the national championship in the same season he won the Heisman. Florida State’s Jameis Winston did it last season.

Another victory in what is very likely his last college game would top off a career that can go down as one of the best in college football history.

Mariota has thrown for 10,463 yards, 103 touchdowns passes and just 13 interceptions while winning 35 games in three seasons as Oregon’s starter.

“Our No. 1 concern is their quarterback,” Meyer said.

The Buckeyes hope to contain the fast-moving Mariota with a defensive line, led by Bosa, that is among the best in the nation.

“They’ve got an awesome front seven,” Mariota said.

“Big, physical guys that really control the line of scrimmage.”

Title game has LHS lineman rapt

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Lawrence High junior Amani Bledsoe is ready to sit back and watch the college football national game tonight, but he has a different view than anybody else.

According to ESPN’s Recruiting Nation, Bledsoe is the only defensive end in the nation, among players in the class of 2016, who holds scholarship offers from both Ohio State and the University of Oregon. The two schools will play at 7:30 p.m. at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Hoops CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Further explaining the play, Garrett said: “Crossover dribble, make a lefthanded layup. (It was) nothing special. It’s hard to get in there (lane) at the end of the game. It wasn’t like I was going to do anything special, just make a layup.”

Garrett said he hadn’t dwelled on the fact he had yet to score in a regular-season game as a Jayhawk. He did score two points against Fort Hays State in exhibition action his junior year.

“I don’t really even think about it,” Garrett said of being blanked until Saturday. “It’s actually funny. You can take it what it is ... Me and Perry (Ellis) pray before every game. Last night we both prayed before the Lord, (and God was) saying he is going to play good, and I was going to score. With those kind of things, you wait and see it play out.

“It happened, so we both looked at each other and kind of smiled. It was cool,” Garrett added after Ellis’ 15-point effort in the win over the Red Raiders.

Garrett further explained on Twitter after the game: “Whether you believe it or not lol doesn’t really matter.

Me and @PElliz (Ellis) prayed before game last night and God told me I was gonna score. So all glory to God and thanks for the love u guys. Something small u make huge and from the coaches to teammates to fans..u guys r special.”

Garrett, who averaged 14.0 points, 7.0 assists and 6.3 rebounds his senior year at IMG Academy in Florida, also had an assist Saturday on a late three

by Evan Manning.

“I love it when Evan and Tyler (Self) and all of them (scout team members) score because they work hard in practice.

Sometimes they even bust us in practice,” freshman guard Graham said.

“It’s good to see them out there and make shots.”

“Like Devonté said, they work very hard in practice. It feels good to see them out there making shots,” noted freshman forward Alexander.

Black’s big game: Garrett scored his first points several hours after his good buddy, Tarik Black, had a breakout game for the Los Angeles Lakers. Former KU power forward Black scored 14 points off 4-of-4 shooting (6-for-7 from the line) and grabbed nine rebounds in just 17 minutes of action of the Lakers’ 101-84 win over Orlando on Friday night.

Black sought out Lakers’ coach Byron Scott and thanked him for the playing time after the game.

“It definitely means a lot to know that both the schools in the title game have offered you,” Bledsoe said. “It just shows what potential you have, what kind of school you can go to … the type of opportunity I have.”

getting traded from Houston to L.A.), coach shook my hand and told me that as long as I work hard, I’ll be all right out here. Usually coaches don’t even really talk to us like that unless you’re their franchise player or their top draft pick,” Black told the Los Angeles Times. “Undrafted guys? They don’t give you the time of day.

Coaches here have shown me love from day one.”

Of Black’s performance, L.A. guard Nick Young told espn.com: “He was an animal out there.”

Guard Jeremy Lin added: “That was awesome, man. Awesome.”

Scott noted: “He’s picked up everything extremely well and extremely fast. That’s why in the second half I didn’t hesitate to put him in.”

ESPN noted that Black doesn’t have a nameplate above his locker. The 6-11, 267-pounder doesn’t worry about such trivial matters.

“God brought me this far and I don’t think he brought me this far to fail,” Black told espn.com. “It was a blessing to play in Houston. I’m very grateful to that organization. No bad blood at all. It’s a business decision. I knew what happened. It took place and it was onto the next phase and the next thing to come and it was the blessing of coming here.”

Reporters in L.A., by the way, like the ones in Kansas, have picked up on the fact Black shakes the hand of media members and says, “Thank you for the opportunity,” after every interview. To see an interview after the Orlando game go to http://ljw. bz/1BRZcjW l

Bragg pots 31: Future KU forward Carlton Bragg tied a career high with 31 points in Cleveland Villa Angela-St. Joseph High’s 72-59 win over Mentor on Saturday night. It was the 6-foot-9 Bragg’s first game since offering an oral commitment to KU. Bragg, by the way, might be 6-10 by the time he’s a Jayhawk. He’s listed as 6-10 by his high school and Cleveland media, 6-9, 225 by the recruiting services.

has piqued his interest, and he has followed it closely.

“I don’t know who’s going to win,” said Bledsoe, backing away from any prediction.

“I’m just excited to see the game.”

Bledsoe, who led Bledsoe the Sunflower League with 13 sacks this year, also holds offers from Kansas University, Kansas State, Arkansas, Missouri, Nebraska, North

Carolina State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, TCU and Texas Tech. He picked up his offer from TCU on Thursday.

He heard from a lot of fellow players when he started receiving his first offers last summer that the recruiting process can be a little wild, and it has lived up to the billing.

“Yeah, it’s been pretty hectic,” Bledsoe said.

“I’ve been able to adjust.

I mean, it can be fun, but at the same time, it can be busy and take up some time. You just have to find a way to work around it.”

As the NCAA national

title game passes by, Bledsoe continues to workout in the offseason through various weight classes and programs, including Lawrence’s speed school.

He earned first-team AllSunflower League honors on both sides of the ball for his play last season, and he’s preparing to take it up a notch next year.

“It was exciting,” Bledsoe said of his postseason awards. “I wasn’t expecting both sides of the ball.

I’m proud of myself. But there’s always room for improvement, so I just have to keep moving forward.”

drought that stretched from a Chelsea Gardner jumper at the 18:22 mark to a Caelynn ManningAllen layup with 10:44 remaining.

In the meantime, the Wildcats took advantage with an 11-2 run that gave them their first lead since 2-0, before Manning-Allen’s point-blank bucket put Kansas back ahead, 41-40.

As Henrickson pointed out, KU used eight players and each but sophomore forward Jada Brown (11 minutes) had at least one turnover. Freshman guard Chayla Cheadle, who led the Jayhawks with 15 points, turned it over five times, and senior guard Asia Boyd finished with four.

“It’s by committee right now,” Henrickson lamented.

Manning-Allen (four points and six boards) scored one of KU’s three interior second-half baskets with 7:47 left, giving Kansas a 43-41 lead as Gardner (three secondhalf points in 10 minutes as she battled foul trouble) sat on the bench. Gardner finished with 13 points and just four rebounds.

K-State’s Kindred Wesemann knocked in two free throws to give the Wildcats the lead for good with 4:49 to play.

“The more they attacked, the more we didn’t counter that by being as aggressive on the offensive end,” Henrickson said.

As if things couldn’t get any worse for Kansas, which had won four of the previous five in the rivalry series, the Wildcats’ Ashia Woods (15 points) lofted an off-themark lob pass inside, and it went through the hoop with 2:58 to go, boosting K-State’s lead to 49-44.

“We needed to keep attacking instead of playing outside of the zone.”

Senior guard Natalie Knight (12 points, seven rebounds, five assists) summed up the feeling in the KU locker room: “We know we ended up beating ourselves.”

Kansas, which remained winless away from Allen Fieldhouse (0-5), returns home Wednesday for a 7 p.m. game against TCU (10-4, 2-1).

Cheadle converted a four-point play with 1:19 remaining to cut the home team’s lead to three, but K-State’s Brianna Craig (13 points) answered with a three-pointer of her own at the other end, pushing the Wildcats out of the Big 12 cellar and leaving the Jayhawks and West Virginia (10-5, 0-3) as the only teams without a league win.

The Jayhawks spent the first eight minutes of the rivalry game wrecking the Wildcats’ defense.

KU nailed its first four three-pointers (3-for-14 from that point on), and freshman point guard Lauren Aldridge (five assists) and Boyd (four assists) whipped passes inside that carved K-State’s zone.

Cheadle said KU failed to sustain that style, which put KU in front, 20-6.

SCOREBOARD

Indy dumps Denver Denver (ap) — Andrew Luck has his signature NFL win, and it came against his predecessor, at that.

Hardly pressured all afternoon, Luck threw two touchdown passes and led the Indianapolis Colts past Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos 24-13 Sunday.

The Colts (13-5) advanced to the AFC championship game at New England (13-4), which beat Baltimore 35-31 Saturday.

“I think we’re playing good team ball,” Luck said. “We’re feeding off each other. Offensively we’re making enough plays to put some points on the board. Great night.

So proud to be a part of the Colts in this victory.”

The Broncos (12-5) are left to deal with the hangover of yet another playoff debacle — and maybe questions about Manning’s future as well as that of coach John Fox. Manning, who joined the Broncos in 2012 after his release from Indy, has gone one-and-done in the playoffs a record nine times in his otherwise stellar career, including twice in Denver, where he’s 38-10 in the regular season, but just 2-3 in the playoffs.

Overall, he’s 11-13 in the postseason and this was one of his worst playoff performances ever. He never found a rhythm, constantly overthrew his receivers and finished 26 of 46 for 111 yards, one TD and no interceptions.

It wasn’t the kind of bounce-back the Broncos expected after watching Manning throw just three TD passes with six interceptions in December after Denver downshifted its high-octane offense.

Each of his three seasons in Denver has ended in humbling losses, to the Ravens and Colts at home after first-round byes and

“By rule he must hold onto it throughout entire process of contacting the ground,” tweeted Dean Blandino, the league’s director of officiating. “He didn’t, so it is incomplete.”

An impassioned Bryant didn’t buy it.

“All I know is I had possession, I had possession of the ball coming down,” Bryant said. “That’s possession, right? One, two, reach. Bam, that’s possession.”

Green Bay closed it out before a Lambeau-record 79,704 on Randall Cobb’s diving 12-yard reception of a deflected pass on third-and-11. That gave Cobb eight catches for 116

But none of them came up big Sunday and the Broncos were left to deal with yet another wrenching playoff loss.

Luck completed 27 of 43 passes for 265 yards with two TDs and two interceptions that were the equivalent of punts and no sacks.

The Colts stretched a four-point halftime lead to 21-10 when Luck drove the Colts 72 yards in 11 plays, hitting Hakeem Nicks from 15 yards midway through the third quarter.

nor Barth’s 41-yard field Kansas State goal that made it 21-13 Iowa West Virginia with 13:50 remaining.

Pack slips by Dallas Green Bay, Wis. (ap) — Hobbled but happy, Aaron Rodgers might have felt a bit lucky, too.

No matter: The AllPro quarterback and his Green Bay Packers are one step away from the Super Bowl.

More stationary than usual because of a left calf injury, Rodgers rallied the Packers from an 8-point deficit with two secondhalf touchdowns passes to beat Dallas 26-21 Sunday.

The Packers (13-4), helped immensely by a video reversal with 4:06 remaining, went undefeated at Lambeau Field this season. They head to Seattle next weekend for the NFC title game.

The Seahawks (13-4) beat Green Bay in the season opener, 36-16.

“I think I got 120 minutes left in me,” Rodgers said.

Green Bay might not have had any time left in its season if not for referee Gene Steratore’s decision. Dez Bryant’s leaping, bobbling 31-yard catch at the Packers 1 on a fourth-and-2 play was challenged by Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy.

“Some people think throwing the red flag is fun,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. “It was such an impactful play, you had to challenge.

It was a confident challenge. And a hopeful one, too.”

One packed with controversy, as well.

“Look, I’ll tell you this, I’ve never seen that a day in my life,” Bryant said.

“I want to know why it wasn’t a catch.”

Because Bryant didn’t maintain control all the way to the ground, as

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Father’s estate changes sound suspicious Dear Annie: I am married to one of four siblings who dutifully took care of their aged parents until their mother died a few years ago. Daddy, in his mid-80s, met a bevy of women at his new upscale care facility and proposed marriage to one of them within two weeks. She turned him down, but a mutual friend accepted and she secretly married Daddy shortly thereafter.

The woman has two children, both in professional jobs, one of whom is an attorney. At first, we liked the stepmother, laughed a bit and everyone got along well. But 18 months later, Daddy died and we discovered that he had drafted a document leaving his estate, worth almost a million dollars, to her.

Now the stepmother

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

will not answer any of our calls and hangs up if we somehow manage to get through. We certainly feel slighted, but this woman is our legal stepmother and we would, with civility, like to make our case to her to use some of that money to help with our children’s college tuitions. How do we address her? — Bombed in Birmingham Dear Bombed: Oh, my. We’re certain our readers will come up

Nickelodeon star makes MTV debut Can you graduate from “Zoey 101” to a stalker horror series?

And if you do, will your audience follow? Victoria Justice (“Zoey,” “Victorious”), a fixture on Nickelodeon since childhood, stars in the new horror/ thriller series “Eye Candy” (9 p.m., MTV).

Based on a novel by R.L. Stine, “Candy” follows Lindy (Justice) as she pursues a serial killer (or killers), who uses Internet expertise to stalk innocent women. Naturally, in order to find her prey she has to pose as a potential victim. Co-stars include Casey Deidrick (“Days of Our Lives”) and Kiersey Clemons (“Good Luck Charlie”).

As you can expect, “Candy” takes place in a peculiar world, where nearly everyone from police to criminals are unusually good-looking and most anyone older than, say, 28, has all but disappeared.

Shows like “Candy” represent risk and opportunity for both their stars and the network. Nickelodeon and MTV are parts of the Viacom family.

Linking them is natural. But it doesn’t help MTV’s reputation for “edge” to remind viewers that both networks are really in the business of selling candy, soda and acne cream to a young audience.

Speaking of networks protecting — or squandering — reputations, Bravo introduces “Friends to Lovers” (9 p.m.).

The network appeared to have taken one step forward with the scripted drama “Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce,” starring Lisa Edelstein. With “Friends,” it takes two leaps backward into contrived and strenuously banal reality.

“Friends” poses the age-old question: Can good pals of the opposite sex become something more? And will the step toward intimacy ruin their friendship?

We’re supposed to believe as five different couples submit to a camera crew to document the changes in their personal dynamic.

Tonight’s other highlights

“Antiques Roadshow” (7

p.m., PBS, check local listings) resumes its visit to New York.

Oregon and Ohio State meet in the College Football Playoff National Championship (7:30 p.m., ESPN).

Exiled to private practice on “Castle” (9 p.m., ABC).

BIRTHDAYS Singer Glenn Yarbrough is 85. Radio commentator Rush Limbaugh is 64. Actress Kirstie Alley is 64. Radio-TV personality Howard Stern is 61. Actor Oliver Platt is 55. Singer Melanie Chisholm (Spice Girls) is 41.

Rock singer Zayn Malik (One Direction) is 22.

with many names you can call her, none of which are printable.

Your 80-something father-in-law signed over his estate to a woman he barely knew, they married in secret, and it lasted a short time.

This entire situation sounds fishy. You need a lawyer. Now. Dear Annie: I had been living with “Rafe” for 10 years until we split up several months ago. Recently, he called to say that his brother had died. I wanted to attend the funeral, but Rafe said he didn’t want me to be there because we weren’t together anymore.

This made me upset and it hurt. Then he said his family probably wouldn’t want me there, either. Since I knew his brother, I feel I should have shown up and paid respects.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Jan. 12: This year you open up to a new beginning. You could be in a position where you can help others dream and think in a more dynamic manner. You also can help others manifest what they want. If you are single, you will meet someone very different from anyone else you have met. If you are attached, you enjoy your sweetie now more than ever.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Avoid getting involved in a situation where everyone is stuck in his or her own perspective. Tonight: Enjoy time with a loved one.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Your ability to resolve a problem walks hand in hand with a new drive to accomplish an important goal. Tonight: Choose a favorite way to relax.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You might witness someone in your daily environment behaving in an angry way. Tonight: Put in an extra hour or two to finish up paperwork.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You could be tired of the same old routine. Take news with a grain of salt. Tonight: As you like it.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Your mind is on overdrive, as you’ll be in a position

What difference does it make if we’re together or not? I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel now. I am sensitive and Rafe doesn’t care that he hurts my feelings. — Ex-Girlfriend Dear Ex: This isn’t about you. It is about Rafe and his family. If they were uncomfortable having you at the funeral, it was right for you to stay away. It is natural that you wanted to pay your respects, but their feelings come first. It would be very gracious of you to send a condolence card to Rafe and his family, expressing your sadness over their loss, and perhaps sharing a fond memory of Rafe’s brother.

— Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.

jacquelinebigar.com

where you must answer to several people at once. Tonight: Hang out with a dear friend.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Be aware of the costs of proceeding as you have. You know when enough is enough. Tonight: Say “yes” to an opportunity.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Note a change of pace.

Suddenly, you seem to have a surge of energy. Tonight: The more people, the better.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Understand what is happening behind the scenes.

You will see positive results come forward. Tonight: Ever playful.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be full of energy, and you might want to take a different position on a personal matter. Tonight: Ask questions.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Take news with a grain of salt. You could be in the position of taking the lead. Tonight: Make it cozy.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Listen to someone else’s opinion without contributing your own. Tonight: Read between the lines.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Deal with a partner directly. Prioritize your plans, and be willing to change them if need be.

Tonight: Snuggle in.
