Watson’s patrons discuss more than just hairstyles and gossip

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

This much seems to be known: Hiram Bayan, one of three barbers at Watson’s Barber Shop, appears to have been involved in some sort of foot race in the parking lot outside the barber shop in the Hillcrest Shopping Center.

When his fellow barbers begin to offer further details of the “race” to a visitor — supposedly there is video evidence — they are met with an almost immediate threat of blackmail.

“Oh, so we’re telling secrets now?” Bayan says to the room. “We can do that.”

I bet they can because in

this place, almost anything can happen at anytime. The fellows at Watson’s, 925 Iowa St., will cut anybody’s hair, but the business has gained a reputation in the

community as the city’s top black barber shop.

And with that comes a certain image to uphold.

“Those black barber shops you see on the movies and TV, it is not too far off from that,” says Martin Watson, who has owned the shop for the past 10 years.

Residents in N. Lawrence go the distance for food

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

East Lawrence resident Lane Eisenbart has heard that, once upon a time, there was a grocery store within a block of her house.

Especially those days when the single mom runs out of eggs mid-week and faces a cold bike ride in the dark to get more, she can’t help but sigh, wouldn’t that have been nice?

“This is my third winter without a car,” Eisenbart said. “I’m really tired of hustling quite so hard for simple things like getting to the grocery store.”

Eisenbart is one of nearly 18,000 northeast Lawrence residents living in a federally designated food desert.

“Oh here we go,” Martin yells. “Here we go.”

But perhaps the biggest twist in conversation at Watson’s Barber Shop: You’ll find Lawrence black men who actually will tell you what’s on their mind.

As the trio of barbers will attest, outside these friendly confines, that is not common in Lawrence.

BARBER HIRAM BAYAN SORTS THROUGH HIS SUPPLIES at Watson’s Barber shop, 925 Iowa St., in the Hillcrest Shopping Center Thursday.

Lawrence is different.

There is a barber shop consensus on that. But the fellows aren’t just talking about how Lawrence is different than it used to be. They’re mainly talking about how Lawrence is still different than most places today.

Bayan talks the loudest on this point, in part, because he’s the newest to Lawrence. He grew up in Kansas City. Bayan says it has taken him awhile to realize that the black community in Lawrence doesn’t operate the way it does in Kansas City.

“In the city, we would be tripping if we feel like somebody has done us wrong,” Bayan says.

“We would be calling FOX 4 (the TV station).

We would be having rallies on the street. That doesn’t happen here.”

If you are quiet, you can’t get in trouble.

Nellie has strong opinions too. He thinks the black community in Lawrence isn’t united enough, and that there is too much jealousy. A few others in the shop agree, but it is not unanimous. One of the younger customers in the shop says that’s not

new voters to provide a birth certificate, passport or other proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote. People who register using the federal form only need to sign a statement, under penalty of perjury, that he or she is a U.S. citizen.

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach has championed his state’s proof-of-citizenship law to keep non-citizens from voting, particularly those in the U.S. illegally. But critics say voter fraud is extremely rare and contend such laws suppress the vote and threaten to keep thousands of citizens from casting ballots.

Kobach said in an email that he had anticipated the adverse ruling from the commission and the states will now press their constitutional claims before the U.S. District Court in Kansas.

He argues the decision is unconstitutional because it prevents Kansas and Arizona from securing their voter rolls.

“The EAC’s reasoning reflects the partisan view of the Obama Justice Department that requiring voters to provide documentary proof of citizen-

When Martin Luther King Jr. Day arrives on Monday, much will have changed in Lawrence since the days when Rev. William Dulin, 71, grew up in rural Douglas County. He remembers how he and his brother — the only two black students on his school’s sporting teams — would have to sit on the bus while the rest of the team would go into a restaurant.

“Thank God I didn’t grow up in that time,” Bayan says. “They would have had to kill me.”

From his seat in a barber’s chair, Dulin explains to the younger listeners just how different it was not so long ago. Yes, today there are still issues black residents of Lawrence would like to see changed. Three I heard fairly consistently in my few hours at the shop were: More black coaches, more black teachers, more black police officers. When Dulin was asked by a young barber what their list of items were during the Civil Rights Movement, he had a different answer.

“There were a whole lot of things we were trying to get,” Dulin says while the clippers buzz. “But the biggest thing was to be treated like a human being.”

A few clippers pause — just long enough for the barbers who hold them to

how he sees Lawrence.

Demarcus Rucker, a third year KU political science major from Wichita, says he feels like there are plenty of people throughout the community rooting for his success.

“I just remember coming here and during the first few days thinking: Everyone is so happy here,” Rucker says.

And that’s a good point.

The fellows at the shop are quick to point out that Lawrence is a good place to live.

Nellie says it is the “perfect place” to raise kids, Watson is celebrating 10 years of business success and Bayan says it is a community far more relaxed than where he came from.

But to mistake the quietness from the black community as a sign that everything is perfect wouldn’t be right either. The opinions really start to flow now.

There are opinions that it is still too easy for blacks to be singled out for retaliation if they speak against the status quo. There are opinions about how the public interacts with an ordinary black man in Lawrence compared to a black KU athlete.

There are opinions about rich sides and poor sides of town. There are opinions about inter-racial relationships. There are opinions

ship at the time of registration is undesirable as a policy matter,” Kobach said. “However, the EAC has no authority to secondguess the policy decisions of the sovereign states of Kansas and Arizona.”

In its decision, the EAC found that added documentation burdens do not enhance voter participation and result in an overall decrease in registration of eligible citizens — undermining the core purpose of the National Voter Registration Act. It cited as evidence the problems Kansas already has experienced with its own enhanced voter registration requirements.

The voter registrations of 20,127 Kansans remained on hold Friday because they’ve not yet provided proof of their citizenship to election officials.

States already have other means available to enforce citizenship requirements without requiring additional information from applicants, including access to national databases of birth

certificates and naturalization information, the agency noted.

Given the “paucity of evidence” provided by the states regarding noncitizens registering to vote, the new voter registration requirements enacted by the states reflect “legislative policy preferences” and are not based on any demonstrated necessity, the agency said. It also said that the heightened documentation requirements imposed by Kansas and Arizona have led to significant reductions in organized voter registration programs.

“This is a significant decision for all eligible voters underscoring the purpose of the National Voter Registration Act to remove barriers such as documentary proof of citizenship that prevent eligible citizens from registering to vote and voting,” Michelle Kanter Cohen, a lawyer representing Project Vote in the states’ lawsuit in Kansas, said in an email Saturday.

“What we have seen

about . . . well, about a lot of things that frankly make a small-town Kansas white reporter a bit uncomfortable to talk about.

And I bet I’m not alone.

That’s maybe the strongest point I walked away with from my couple of hours at Watson’s. Lawrence doesn’t talk a lot about race. Maybe it just makes us uncomfortable.

Or maybe — you pick the label — we’re just too cool, or progressive, or liberal to talk about it.

“We’re all just supposed to be Lawrencians,” Bayan said. “We’re not supposed to be a white community and a black community.”

Lawrence may be different that way too, and surely that is good. But as they say, everything — even that well-meaning sentiment — comes with a shade of gray. Our desire for all of us to be one can sometimes make it harder to remember that our one big community has smaller communities within it.

“Sometimes you just have to be proud and say it,” Bayan says. “Sometimes you just have to say: I’m a black man.”

That and a whole lot more gets said in this barber shop. Just don’t ask about the parking lot race. where these laws have been implemented in Arizona and Kansas is that tens of thousands of eligible Americans have been rejected or suspended from the voter rolls, and community voter registration drives have been significantly hampered,” Cohen said.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June that Arizona could not refuse to accept the national voter registration form, even though people who use it aren’t required to provide citizenship documents.

Kobach has said that if he cannot get a federal court to order EAC to modify the federal registration form with statespecific requirements, he would institute — on his own authority as Kansas secretary of state — a dual registration that limits Kansans who register with the federal form to voting only in presidential, U.S. Senate and congressional races.

“We applaud the EAC’s decision to uphold this law and protect the right to vote,” said Wendy Weiser, director of the Brennan Center’s Democracy Program at NYU School of Law, which represents the League of Women Voters in the Kansas litigation.

“We hope Arizona and Kansas abandon their quest to undermine federal law by making voter registration more complicated.”

One person sustained serious injuries after a domestic dispute at a Lawrence apartment complex ended in gunfire Saturday night.

Police spokesman Trent McKinley said the victim’s injuries are “serious, but likely not life-threatening” after a firearm was discharged during a domestic altercation inside an apartment around 9:40 p.m.

Saturday at Peppertree Apartments, 3100 W 22nd St. The bullet passed through the alleged gunman’s apartment wall and struck a neighbor. The victim is not believed to have been involved in the altercation.

Two individuals were taken into custody after a brief police standoff outside the apartment complex following the shooting. McKinley said the incident is currently under investigation but officers are not looking for a suspect.

Homicide CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Lewis Balmilero, who lives across the street, did not know the resident’s name, which he said is unusual for his usually quiet neighborhood.

“We all know each other in this neighborhood, but no one I’ve talked to knew him,” Balmilero said. “I can’t remember the last time I saw him, but someone took his Christmas tree to the curb last week.”

Police have not yet notified next of kin, McKinley said. They hope to do so and release the victim’s identify by Sunday, he said.

This is the fourth homicide in Lawrence in seven months. The most recent previous homicide was in 2008.

“We’ve seen years where there’s been several homicides and we’ve seen years where fortunately we’ve had none,” McKinley said.

“Other than when there are multiple victims, over time we’ve drawn no great conclusions.”

McKinley said police have an idea about how the man died but would not release it now.

The incident was logged as a missing person call at 11:02 p.m. The police department sent a news release on the homicide after 4:30 p.m. Saturday.

Debate teams place at state tourney

LECOMPTON

Post office’s future unclear

By Peter Hanacock phancock@ljworld.com

Both Lawrence and Free State high schools brought home honors from the Kansas 6A state debate tournament this weekend.

Lawrence High finished third in the four-speaker division, while Free State’s Alex Houston and Hannah Moran advanced to the final 16 SCHOOLS in the twospeaker division before losing in the octafinal round to Blue Valley North.

“They were really good,” Houston said after the decision was announced. “We did our best, but they were really good debaters.”

He and Moran came out of the preliminary rounds with a 4-2 record, giving them a mid-level seed going into the elimination rounds. But there, they were matched against Blue Valley North’s Mady Womack and Linda Yang, who won the round on a 3-0 decision.

Winning a coin toss before the round, Moran and Houston opted to take the negative side in the octafinals, “which probably, in Please see DEBATE, page 4A

saves money by catching problems before they fester. Administering mental and physical health care needs in one place makes patients more likely to follow through on care, and reduces stigmas associated with being treated for mental illness, they say.

Bishop Seabury Academy also sent debaters to the state 3A debate tournament in Fort Scott. Results from that event were not immediately available Saturday evening.

$17,500 — according to information obtained from Sen. Jerry Moran’s office — was unusual for a community of its size, Rowe said.

Tammy Morris, who joined Lecompton’s post office in November, said fulfilling her job requirements while maintaining the face-to-face contact the postal service is analyzing has proven difficult. “Any time I spend with customers takes away from getting my work done,� she said.

in a three-month time span, because it would have been so demanding otherwise,� she said. “There would have been so many appointments, and getting babysitters is really hard. Just being able to go to one office building for two different appointments makes it so much easier to manage.�

“It would be strange to say come visit Lecompton Constitution Hall in Perry, Kansas,� City Council member Elsie Middleton said.

A common theme voiced by Jacquot and others is Lecompton’s historical significance: It was declared the capital of the Kansas Territory in 1855 and a nationally significant 1857 Constitution Hall sent a pro-slavery

Lecompton Constitution into the national debate.

On Saturday, Jacquot expressed frustration with the postal service’s inability to direct her to a specific person to voice her concerns. So far the only person willing to address her directly, she said, deals with requests for information. “And our problem isn’t that we need more information,� she said, “our problem is

we need more action.�

Also in attendance Saturday were state Sen. Anthony Hensley of Topeka and Sen. Marci Francisco of Lawrence, as well as staff members from the offices of other government officials. Bill Rowe, district director for U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, said he knew of no other community as active as Lecompton in preserving its post office, something he believes will help keep one in place. “(Closure) is very unlikely from my assessment because of your diligence — which has set you apart,� Rowe said.

Meanwhile, Lecompton’s 2012 profit of

not a pill I can give that’s going to make that happen.�

So Denes-Collar works with patients to alter those behaviors. Since she does it right at Heartland, during or after appointments, patients almost never turn down the opportunity to meet with her. “We have tried to a do this a differHEALTH ent way, where we brought you a bunch of business cards and brochures and say, ‘Go over to Bert Nash,’� she said. “The problem is, by and large, people don’t.�

The two clinics expanded their partnership in the fall, when a nurse practitioner from Heartland began seeing patients at Bert Nash once a week and a Bert Nash psychiatrist, in turn, did the same at Heartland.

Supporters say this model isn’t just effective for these two clinics’ patient populations, which are largely low income, but all of health care. For that to happen, though, insurance reimbursement would have to start paying for this type of model, since the main funding source now is grants.

These advocates also hope health care can get to a point where there isn’t a differentiation between the mental and the physical. To that end, Bert Nash last year purchased

the old VFW property at 138 Alabama St., in the hopes it can eventually become a standalone integrated care clinic. “I believe it is the future of health care and mental health care — that those services are provided where the patients are, as opposed to, ‘You go here for one thing and there for another,’� said Johnson. “If they don’t know what the masthead on the front of the building says ... then we’ll have

gotten there.�

While Lira had never heard of integrated care before her treatment last year for panic attacks, she’s glad it’s being used in Lawrence. Her postpartum symptoms are under control, and she now has a primary care doctor to go to for her other health care needs.

She credits her speedy recovery to the clinics’ partnership. “I don’t think I would have had success as fast,

The numbers

eastern city limits and envelops everything north of the river.

Community planners cite food deserts as a public health obstacle. But greening them up isn’t that simple.

Access to healthy, affordable food emerged as a top concern in a recent survey of county residents, said Christina Holt, chairwoman of LiveWell Lawrence’s Healthy Food for All committee and associate director at Kansas University’s Work Group for Community Health and Development.

“There was story after story,” Holt said. “We had many stories of residents who live in North Lawrence who said they did their grocery shopping at Dollar General because they didn’t have a car and transportation was a hardship for them... Besides the whole physical access to fresh produce, there’s also a financial barrier.”

Low access, low income When it comes to food deserts, more attention seems to fall on innercity or remote rural areas, said Shelly Ver Ploeg, an economist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Economic Research Service, which developed the mapping tool designating food deserts nationwide.

But Lawrence — classified as urban, though it’s a small city — has large swaths of them.

Four adjacent low-income census tracts have a significant number of people who live at least a mile from the nearest supermarket, according to the USDA Food Access Research Atlas. Of those people, more than 3,000 are low-income, more

Trial reset for man accused of killing girl

Topeka — A trial for a Topeka man charged with kidnapping and killing an 8-year-old girl has been rescheduled for November.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports Billy Frank Davis Jr. had been scheduled to stand trial in April. But a Shawnee County judge on Friday granted a defense request to postpone the trial until Nov. 12.

Davis faces two alternative counts of capital murder in the March 2012 death of 8-year-old Ahliyah Nachelle Irvin. He’s also charged with rape, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated burglary. The child’s body was found in a clothes dryer.

Davis could face the death penalty if convicted.

Friday was the second postponement of the trial.

THE NORTHEAST PORTION OF LAWRENCE is a federally designated food desert. This map shows the four adjacent low-income census tracts where a significant number of residents live more than a mile from the nearest grocery store. More than 125 of those households do not have cars. than 2,000 are children and more than 720 are seniors. About 130 of their households don’t have cars.

In North Lawrence, none of the 2,800-plus residents lives within a mile of a full-service grocery, according to the data.

Since USDA designations are based primarily on census data, they account for children and seniors but not other common factors that might hinder access to food, such as disabilities, Ver Ploeg said.

‘Basket bike’ v. food desert Eisenbart hopes she’ll be able to buy a car after she gets her tax return.

In the meantime, it’s her and her “basket bike” versus the food desert.

Eisenbart, who lives in the 1200 block of Pennsylvania Street, occasionally takes side roads to Checkers at 23rd and Louisiana streets but does most of

her shopping at Dillons at 17th and Massachusetts streets because it’s closer — a mile from home.

Walking is hard to schedule because it takes so long, she said, and she’s found the bus unreliable.

She rides a lighter-weight bike to work at KU, but her grocery-getter has a shopping cart basket welded to the frame, a custom creation of Lawrence’s Farnsworth Bicycle Laboratory.

She’s still exposed to the elements — darkness, icy roads, bad weather, bad drivers and just being tired — but, Eisenbart said, it’s nice that her basket is big enough to hold all the groceries she can afford when she does make the trip, about every week and a half.

Eisenbart said she plans meals and shopping trips ahead and tries hard to prioritize healthy, whole foods for herself, her 7-yearold and her 12-year-old.

Sometimes in the summer she walks to the downtown farmers market, just under a mile away, where she’ll pay a little extra, when she can, for the high-quality produce there.

“It’s always a balance between what’s inexpensive and what’s good for me,” Eisenbart said. “It’s especially important because of my daughters ... I want them to experience a lot of fresh foods.”

An East Lawrence developer wants to bring in a grocery store of some kind on Eisenbart’s street, but so far nothing has materialized.

Without one, having a car sure would make getting food easier, Eisenbart said. She’d love to be able to just — what is it people say? — “run to the store” and get those eggs.

“Every day, I’m hustling to get what I need,” she said. “I’m just making it happen.”

Drought disaster

BRIEFLY Ed. officials to seek waiver extension Topeka — Kansas education officials plan to ask for an extension of their waiver from the No Child Left Behind law.

The U.S. Department of Education put Kansas on notice that it’s at “high risk� of losing its waiver because Kansas hadn’t taken enough steps to use student growth data as part of teacher evaluations.

The waivers give states more flexibility in meeting some of the provisions of No Child Left Behind.

The Wichita Eagle reports education officials say they aren’t closer to installing a new teacher evaluation system than they were last summer.

Kansas must have a plan with final guidelines for teacher evaluations

by May 1 to continue its waiver.

Legislators mull death penalty appeal changes

By John Milburn Associated Press

Topeka — Supporters of the Kansas death penalty law are pushing a measure that would shorten the appeals process for inmates through the state Supreme Court, a move borne out of frustration by some who want the state to carry out the sentences more quickly.

The measure seeks to streamline the process and narrow the scope of the appeals and the amount of time inmates have to raise their grievances.

Kansas has put nine

“

They are judging the law rather than judging the facts. That’s what’s a matter with Kansas.� — Greg Smith, Overland Park Republican and former law enforcement officer men on death row since capital punishment was reinstated in 1994, but no one has completed the appeals process at the state level, putting the date of the state’s next execution years in the future.

Sen. Greg Smith testified Thursday about the bill and spoke out against a separate proposal to abolish the death penalty.

He argued that the Kansas Supreme Court was at least partially to blame

for the delays in carrying out executions. “They are judging the law rather than judging the facts. That’s what’s a matter with Kansas,� said Smith, an Overland Park Republican and former law enforcement officer whose daughter was murdered.

Kelsey Smith was abducted from a Johnson County shopping mall and taken to Missouri and abused by her killer be-

fore being strangled. Edwin Hall pleaded guilty to the murder to avoid the death sentence, receiving life in prison without parole.

Over the years, the Kansas Supreme Court has ruled the death penalty unconstitutional, in whole or in part, only to see those decisions reversed on appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. That happened most recently in the 2013 appeal of Scott

Cheever, who was sentenced to death for the murder of Greenwood County Sheriff Matt Samuels. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously that a lower court in Kansas should not have overturned Cheever’s conviction and death sentence.

One Kansas Supreme Court ruling that placed the law in legal limbo in the early 2000s meant that several of the appeals for cases from the earlier decade were placed on hold or the defendants were remanded for resentencing.

That aside, legislators question why the process is still taking so long,

pointing to the more than two dozen extensions that were granted by the Kansas Supreme Court for attorneys representing Wichita murder defendants Jonathan and Reginald Carr. The brothers were convicted of a December 2000 quadruple killing.

Most of the language in the Senate bill mirrors existing rules of the Kansas Supreme Court regarding appeals, said Kristafer Ailsleiger, deputy solicitor general for Kansas.

He said those rules “unfortunately have not necessarily been viewed as binding� and led to the delays.

Nut farmers unite to fight theft

By Scott Smith Associated Press

Escalon, Calif. — The soaring value of California’s nut crops is attracting a new breed of thieves who have been making off with the pricey commodities by the truckload, recalling images of cattle rustlers of bygone days.

This harvest season in the Central Valley, thieves cut through a fence and hauled off $400,000 in walnuts. An additional $100,000 in almonds was stolen by a driver with a fake license.

And $100,000 in pistachios was taken by a big rig driver who left a farm without filling out any paperwork.

crime may have a hand in cases, while some pilfered nuts are ending up in Los Angeles for resale at farmers markets or disappear into the black market.

Domestic demand for specialty foods and an expanding Asian market for them have prompted a nut orchard boom in the state’s agricultural heartland. Such heists have become so common that an industry taskforce recently formed to devise ways to thwart thieves.

Russia’s ban on U.S. adoptions holds firm New York — A year after Russia imposed a ban on adoptions by Americans, some affected U.S. families are reluctantly looking elsewhere to adopt. Others refuse to abandon flickering hopes of uniting with the Russian children who won their hearts.

Thirty-three of the families have filed appeals with the European Court of Human Rights, contending that the ban violates the rights of the orphans whose adoptions were thwarted. But there’s no tight time frame for the case, and even a favorable ruling might be unenforce-

able if Russia objects.

By the Russians’ count, the ban halted the pending adoptions of 259 children.

Roughly 230 U.S. families, some seeking to adopt more than one child, were affected — including scores of Americans who had bonded face-to-face with the children during visits to their orphanages.

Meanwhile, Russian authorities have spurned requests from U.S. officials to reconsider the ban The Americans have been dropped from Russia’s official roster of prospective adoptive parents, and many of the orphans — possibly more than half — already have been placed with Russian families.

Syrian opposition group to attend peace conference

By Ayse Wieting and Bassem Mroue Associated Press

Istanbul— The main, Western-backed Syrian opposition group voted Saturday in favor of attending a coming peace conference aimed at ending the country’s bloody civil war, paving the way for the first direct talks between the rival sides in the nearly three-year conflict.

The vote in Istanbul came as food supplies began entering a besieged rebel-held Palestinian refugee camp in Syria’s capital for the first time

in months, an apparent goodwill gesture by President Bashar Assad’s government ahead of the peace conference, Palestinian and United Nations officials said.

The Syrian National Coalition was under huge pressure from its Western and Arab sponsors to attend the peace talks, scheduled to open Wednesday in the Swiss city of Montreux. The Syrian government has already said it will attend the U.N.-sponsored talks.

The Coalition’s leader, Ahmad al-Jarba, said in a speech late Saturday that

they are heading to the conference “without any bargain regarding the principles of the revolution and we will not be cheated

by Assad’s regime.”

“The negotiating table for us is a track toward achieving the demands of the revolution — at the top of them removing the butcher from power,” Jarba said.

But many Coalition members are hesitant to attend a conference that has little chance of success and will burn the last shred of credibility the group has with powerful rebels on the ground, who reject the talks.

Tribal communities like Tiwa, Karbi, Khasi and Jaintia from nearby hills participate in large numbers in the festival that signifies harmony and brotherhood amongst various tribes and communities.

BRIEFLY Voters back new Egypt constitution Cairo — Almost everyone who cast ballots supported Egypt’s new constitution in this week’s referendum, results announced Saturday show, but a boycott by Islamists and low youth turnout suggest the country is still dangerously divided.

Nearly 20 million voters backed the new constitution, almost double the number of those who voted for one drafted in 2012 under the government of toppled Islamist President Mohammed Morsi. Only a narrow sliver of voters — 1.9 percent — voted against the charter, after a massive government-sponsored campaign supporting it and the arrest of activists campaigning against it.

The expected overwhelming support for the charter is seen as key to legitimizing Egypt’s militarybacked interim government, and the political plan put in place since Morsi’s ouster in July. Analysts say it also suggests military chief It was the first vote since the military removed Morsi following massive protests in July. Hundreds celebrated in the streets after officials announced the results.

Taliban attack in Afghanistan kills 21 Kabul, Afghanistan — A Taliban attack against a popular Kabul restaurant killed 21 people, authorities said Saturday, making it the deadliest single attack against foreign civilians

in the course of a nearly 13-year U.S.-led war there now approaching its end.

The attack comes as security has been deteriorating and apprehension has been growing among Afghans over their country’s future as U.S.-led foreign forces prepare for a final withdrawal at the end of the year.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai, who is deferring signing an agreement allowing U.S. forces to stay past the planned withdrawal until after the country’s April 5 presidential election, criticized America while condemning the attack.

The dead from Friday’s assault against La Taverna du Liban included 13 foreigners and eight Afghans, all civilians. The U.S. Embassy in Kabul said late Saturday that three Americans were killed.

Budget plans It will be interesting to see how even the modest spending increases requested by Gov. Brownback will be received by the Kansas Legislature.

T

he governor’s budget plan, released last week, includes some modest spending increases for fiscal year 2015 but mostly stays — or makes corrections in — the course set during last year’s two-year budget process.

Course corrections for the current fiscal year include $17.8 million to maintain base state aid for K-12 public schools at the approved level of $3,853 per pupil. Other additions for this year include funding to offset about half of the salary cuts approved last year for Kansas Board of Regents universities.

The additional $10.9 million in higher education spending the governor has recommended over this year and next is welcome, but it falls significantly short of the $33 million cut from higher education last year.

For next year, Brownback recommended adding $429.8 million to the budget approved last year, but most of that — $362.9 million — will go to the Department of Corrections, whose FY 2015 budget was vetoed by Brownback last year.

That represents a small increase from this year, but probably not enough to restore important inmate programs. The governor also recommends $20 million to keep K-12 per pupil funding at the same level as this year and $16.3 million for one of his pet projects, the Career and Technical Education Initiative.

The governor’s budget also includes $16.3 million to fund all-day kindergarten across the state, another initiative that Brownback has been touting. However, he offered no specific recommendation on how to fund that program, saying in his State of the State address that it would be “paid for out of a growing economy.”

There was an interesting contrast between the image of the Kansas economy presented in Brownback’s address and the one depicted in the Democratic response presented by House Minority Leader Paul Davis, who has announced his candidacy for governor. Brownback made reference to an average of 1,000 private sector jobs being created per month during his tenure, as well as top rankings for high employment and a low cost of living in the state. By contrast, Davis claimed that 16,000 fewer Kansans were working today than when Brownback took office, that “property taxes are skyrocketing” and that middle class families are struggling to make ends meet.

Both candidates undoubtedly have a set of figures that back up their claims, and it will be important between now and November for them to share those so that voters can evaluate the information that will be important to their voting decisions.

It also will be important to watch the progress of even the modest budget requests made by Brownback as they move through the Kansas Legislature. Making budget recommendations is the first step, but it will be interesting to see whether the governor can convince legislators to make those recommendations a reality.

Report dispels phony Benghazi issues Washington — The Senate Intelligence Committee made headlines last week by reporting that the 2012 attack in Benghazi was preventable. But frankly, we knew that. The deeper message of the bipartisan report was that Republicans in Congress wasted a year arguing about what turned out to be mostly phony issues.

The GOP’s Benghazi obsession was the weird backdrop for foreign-policy debate through much of last year.

Sen. Lindsey Graham used it as a pretext for blocking administration nominations.

Rep. Darrell Issa used the issue to impugn the integrity and independence of a review conducted by retired Adm. Mike Mullen and former Ambassador Tom Pickering.

Driving the Republican jihad was a claim, first reported in October 2012 by Fox News, that CIA personnel had wanted to respond more quickly to the Benghazi attack but were ordered to “stand down,” perhaps by political higher-ups. Although this claim was promptly rebutted by CIA officials, it was repeated by Fox at least 85 times, according to a review by the liberal advocacy group Media Matters. This barrage fueled Republican charges that the Democrats were engaging in a cover-up.

The Senate Intelligence report addressed this inflammatory charge head-on.

“The committee explored claims that there was a ‘stand down’ order given to the security team at the annex. Although some members of the security team

“

The Republican tirades about Benghazi were unfortunate not just because they were based on erroneous speculation but because they distracted policymakers from the real challenge of framing coherent policy in the Middle East.” expressed frustration that they were unable to respond more quickly to the mission compound, the committee found no evidence of intentional delay or obstruction by the chief of [the CIA] base or any other party.”

The Senate panel also rejected the insinuation, made repeatedly by Republicans, that the Obama administration failed to scramble available military assets that could have defended the Benghazi annex and saved the lives of the four American victims. “There were no U.S. military resources in position to intervene in short order in Benghazi,” the report says flatly. “The committee has reviewed the

allegations that U.S. personnel ... prevented the mounting of any military relief effort during the attacks, but the committee has not found any of these allegations to be substantiated.”

These are bipartisan findings, mind you, endorsed by the panel’s Republican members as well as Democrats.

GOP members offered some zingers in their additional minority views, but the Democrats rightly credited their colleagues for standing up to the right-wing spin machine: “We worked together on a bipartisan basis to dispel the many factual inaccuracies and conspiracy theories related to the Benghazi attacks.”

The Obama administration’s supposed cover-up on Benghazi became a crusade for leading Republicans. A low point came when Issa’s Committee on Oversight and Reform issued a report last September questioning “the independence and integrity of the review” by the MullenPickering group. These were extraordinary charges to make against a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and a former ambassador to six countries — especially since Issa didn’t present any conclusive evidence to back up his allegations.

The Republican tirades about Benghazi were unfortunate not just because they were based on erroneous speculation but because they distracted policymakers from the real challenge of framing coherent policy in the Middle East. Sometimes, it seemed as if Benghazi finger-pointing was the

only issue that leading Republicans cared about.

In fact, the Senate Intelligence report echoes many of the themes of the earlier report by the Accountability Review Board, which noted “systemic failures and leadership and management deficiencies.” Warnings about deteriorating conditions in Benghazi were ignored; proposals to add additional security there were rejected; even as evidence mounted of al-Qaeda’s growing power in Benghazi, the State Department failed to respond adequately. The Senate report makes clear that some important security mistakes were made by Ambassador Christopher Stevens, the courageous but sometimes incautious diplomat who was among those who died in the attack.

Perhaps the silliest aspect of the Benghazi affair was the focus on the errant “talking points” prepared for Congress, which cited incorrect intelligence about “spontaneous demonstrations” in Benghazi that wasn’t corrected by the CIA until a week after the points were delivered on Sunday talk shows by Susan Rice, then U.N. ambassador.

Rice is still under a cloud because she repeated the CIA’s “points” prepared at Congress’ insistence.

Next time, the Senate report notes, the intelligence community should just tell Congress what facts are unclassified — and let the legislators do the talking.

Having no manners worse than being fat Everybody’s got something.

Maybe it’s something you were born with, maybe something that happened to you, maybe something you did to yourself through bad habits or neglect. But everybody’s got something, some physical or emotional blemish measuring the distance from you to perfection.

Maybe you’re a short guy or a gawky woman. Maybe you’re ugly. Maybe you’ve got cellulite, depression, anorexia, alcoholism, gingivitis, psoriasis or a big nose.

Maybe you’re fat.

Gabourey Sidibe is fat.

Morbidly obese, to be exact.

One doubts this comes as news to the 30-year-old actress, best known for her starring role in 2009’s “Precious.”

Everybody’s got something. More to the point, everybody is dealing with something. That’s what makes us human.

But although Sidibe surely knows this, once in a while someone — who apparently struggles with nothing — will take it upon themselves to remind her of her weight, usually in the coarsest and cruelest manner they can.

In 2009, for instance, some individual online dubbed her a “gorilla.” Sidibe was photographed last week at the Golden Globes and sure

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

Too many of us have forgotten a basic rule of what used to be called home training. There are some things you just don’t say to or about another human being in a public forum.” enough, here they came again: jibes via Twitter to tell her, in case she has forgotten, that she is fat. One called her “the GLOBE.” Another said she missed the “hour-glass look” by 10 hours. And et cetera.

To which Sidibe shot back that she cried about those comments “on that private jet on my way to my dream job.” Obviously, the lady doesn’t need me to defend her. So this is not a defense, but simply a question: How did this kind of cruelty — meaning not the occasional fat joke on Letterman, but

this sort of truly sadistic and personal meanness — become acceptable? Indeed, commonplace?

The instinct is to blame Internet anonymity, cowards emboldened by the knowledge that they can’t be identified. But the critic who savaged Melissa McCarthy as “tractor-size” signed his name. As did the pundit who called Chris Christie a “fat nightmare.”

And with due respect to Christie, the ridicule of McCarthy and Sidibe seems especially harsh — an arrow aimed at a vulnerable spot — given that women and girls are already more susceptible to body image fears and far more likely to suffer eating disorders as a result. But you get the sense the cruelty of it is the entire point.

Everybody’s dealing with something, and more than one in three of us are dealing with the same thing Sidibe is. Fat is unsightly and unhealthy. But it is not uncommon. It is also, when you get right down to it, not the point.

I don’t know why Sidibe has a weight problem. Maybe it’s emotional, maybe it’s medical, maybe it’s too many bonbons and too few sit-ups. I do know none of that is my business and none of it makes her anything oth-

er than human and entitled to be treated as such.

But we are a people who spend half our days gazing down at screens and that, I think, has changed us.

We’ve become unused to interacting with one another and we’re not very good at it anymore. We have, many of us, lost the knack of treating people like people.

You get some sense of this when a polarizing political figure — Ted Kennedy, Robert Novak — passes away and people cheer as if this were not a real person who just died. You get it when a man holds a sign calling for the president’s children to be killed. Or when Bill Maher calls Sarah Palin a c---. Or when some individual likens Sidibe to a zoo animal.

Too many of us have forgotten a basic rule of what used to be called home training. There are some things you just don’t say to or about another human being in a public forum. Saying the thing anyway tells us less about the person you’re talking about than about you and your lack of class.

Everybody has something.

Gabourey Sidibe is fat. But some of us are trolls.

And she can always diet.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY GUARD NAADIR THARPE HOLDS HIS HAND UP TO HIS EAR TO BETTER HEAR THE ROAR OF THE FIELDHOUSE FAITHFUL as he leaves the floor following the Jayhawks’ 80-78 victory over Oklahoma State on Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse.

Tharpe puts on show for mom, relatives

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Naadir Tharpe cupped his right hand next to his right ear, then his left hand next to his left ear, imploring 16,300 fans to make some noise as he and his Kansas University basketball teammates raced off the court following Saturday’s 80-78 victory over

Oklahoma State in Allen Fieldhouse.

“That’s Naadir feeling good about Naadir. That’s all,” Tharpe’s mom, Lori, told the Journal-World after watching her son interact with the spectators after No. 15-ranked KU avenged last year’s home loss to the No. 9-ranked Cowboys and took a two-game lead over the ’Pokes in the league standings.

Lori Tharpe — who sat in the lower level, southwest bleachers with Naadir’s brothers Abdullah and Tishaun; Naadir’s uncle, Tony; plus some cousins and family friends — was beaming with pride after watching Naadir play so well during her first game in the fieldhouse stands.

“You know how sometimes you come into a situ-

ation you are really not prepared for? You get there, and it’s better than you expected? This is better than expected,” Lori said, smiling.

“Not because it was so loud,” she added of fans’ wild response to her son hitting a three to stretch a 54-50 lead to 57-50, another three to up a 59-56 lead to 62-56, and a two at the end of the shot clock to stretch a 77-73

lead to 79-73 with :34 left.

Those shots were pivotal in preventing Oklahoma State (15-3, 3-2) from overcoming a whopping 19-point firsthalf deficit and pulling out a shocking win.

“We’ve been to about two or three restaurants (since arriving from Worcester, Mass., on Friday).

Improved bench key for KU Andrew Wiggins and Perry Ellis, the Kansas University basketball team’s two leading scorers, warmed the bench more than the nets in Saturday afternoon’s 80-78 survival victory against Oklahoma State in Allen Fieldhouse.

Ellis played just five second-half minutes, Wiggins just 12. Ellis didn’t have a foul all game, so that wasn’t the issue. Wiggins was whistled for his third with 9:18 left and headed to the bench. Exactly eight minutes of game clock later, the freshman returned. His uninspiring play to that point was only part of the reason KU coach Bill Self

decided to let Wiggins watch instead of play.

With good reason, Self showed a great deal of confidence in his bench.

Even in a game in which Oklahoma State reserve guard Phil Forte torched Kansas for 23 points, KU’s bench outscored the Cowboys, 28-23. ’Pokes coach

Travis Ford turned to his bench for 52 minutes, Self to his for 54.

“Wiggs had the worst game he’s had all year,” Self said. “Perry had as bad a game as he’s had all year.

Wayne (Selden) had as bad a game as he’s had in a long time, and we won. So the bench was good.”

Nobody had to tell that to Ford, whose depth took a hit when starting center Michael Cobbins, easily the team’s best post defender, suffered a season-ending injury recently.

“I don’t know a team in the country that is as talented and as deep as they are,” Ford said. “They’ve

got so many good basketball players, so deep.”

Four KU reserves made 11 of 15 shots, had 10 rebounds and committed just two of the team’s 19 turnovers. The fifth, Conner Frankamp, played just one minute and missed a three-pointer.

Jamari Traylor, the third-year sophomore built more like a football player and a relative newcomer to basketball, led the way with nine points, three rebounds, a big blocked shot and a perfect shooting day.

Baylor women bring ‘angst’ to Allen Fieldhouse

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

There’s never really a good time to go up against Baylor University’s women’s basketball team.

Still, the timing couldn’t

be worse for Kansas University, which plays host to the No. 7 Bears at 2 p.m. today at Allen Fieldhouse.

Baylor (14-2 overall, 4-0 Big 12) lost for just the second time this season in its last outing, a 66-55 home

defeat on national television against No. 1 Connecticut.

“They might be a little fired up,” Jayhawks coach Bonnie Henrickson said, “but it is what it is. We ought to be fired up, because we lost the other night, too (70-

58 at Texas). I hope we’ve got as much angst as they’ve got.”

The Jayhawks (8-9, 1-4) know exactly what they’re up against, because they already played at Baylor, losing 75-55 on Jan. 5.

Source: Nets to send Taylor to Pelicans New York (ap) — The Brooklyn Nets acquired guard Marquis Teague from Chicago for Toko Shengalia on Saturday and also sent guard Tyshawn Taylor to New Orleans in a separate move, a person with knowledge of the deals said.

The trades, first reported by Yahoo Sports, open up a roster spot for the Nets, who sent

cash along with Taylor, a former Kansas University standout, to the Pelicans for a future draft pick.

It also gives Brooklyn another option at point guard, where Deron Williams has been sitting out with ankle problems.

But Teague had appeared in just 19 games for the Bulls, even though they were in need of a point guard after Derrick Rose

was lost for the season. Teague was averaging 2.4 points and shooting 24 percent from the field.

Teague was taken by Chicago with the No. 29 pick in the 2012 draft after one season at Kentucky.

“Marquis is a good, young player. He’s had some good moments. He’s had some moments that he can obviously

do better, but that’s to be expected,” Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said. “When you come into this league as young as he is, that’s what you’re going to get. He’s much further along today than he was when he was first drafted. He’s done a good job overall.”

Shengalia and Taylor both spent part of the season in the NBA Development League.

Women’s Basketball Time

By Jeff Jacobs The Hartford Courant

Ernest Jones said what he said.

Susan Herbst, as president of our state’s flagship university, did what she had to do.

There’s no way Jones, as the new UConn running backs coach and director of player engagement, should have said he’s going to make sure his players understand Jesus should be in the center of their huddle. Unless, of course, Jesus is a 6-1, 195-pound tailback out of New Jersey with 4.37 speed in the 40 ready to play next autumn at Rentschler Field.

Then, by all means, Jesus, please step right into the huddle of a public, nonsectarian institution.

Dead honest here: Running around from Foxborough, Mass., to Waco, Texas, during the weekend, I breezed over Jones’ comments in Desmond Conner’s introductory piece on the new assistant coach. I read how the new staff was interested in social development, life skills, community relations, and I’m nodding my head, good, good.

Read how Jones talked about how going to UConn doesn’t mean a player won’t have the opportunity to pursue his faith, read about building fellowship and nondenominational things, all good. By that point, sitting in a distant airport, whether through fatigue or mental laziness, I breezed through, “We’re going to make sure they understand that Jesus Christ should be in the center of our huddle, that’s something that is important … That’s going to be something said by Bob Diaco.

That’s something that’s going to be said by Ernest Jones.”

I absorbed the words as these were men of faith, that they were invested in building young men’s character.

I’ve read similar things from football coaches, at state and private schools, over the years and, like I said, it didn’t hit me … until Rena Epstein, a UConn alum and sports fan, wrote in a letter to The Hartford Courant that she felt alienated and feared non-Christian players would not feel part of the huddle.

There is nothing wrong with groups of players at a state university meeting for religious purposes. There is nothing wrong with members of a program offering spiritual guidance when a player asks.

When so much time and effort is dedicated to athletic performance, there’s nothing wrong with making it easier for an athlete to find what he is looking for.

What’s wrong is a culture of coaches evangelizing at a state university. That cannot happen and there is no evidence it did at UConn. Religion can’t be pushed on players. Players must not be made to feel that they are outsiders if they don’t go along. Doors can be opened.

Nobody must be shoved through the threshold.

SERENA WILLIAMS RETURNS A SHOT DURING her fourth-round loss to Ana Ivanovic early today in the Australian Open.

Ivanovic ousts Serena at Australian Open Melbourne, Australia — Serena Williams’ long winning streak has come to an end in an upset 4-6, 6-3, 6-3 loss to Ana Ivanovic in the fourth round today at the Australian Open.

Williams hadn’t lost a match since August, one of only four defeats in 2013, and came into the fourth round with 25 straight wins. It was her 70th match at Melbourne Park, a record in the Open era, and she set the mark for most match wins ever at the Australian Open with her third-round victory.

Ivanovic hadn’t taken a set off Willliams in their previous four matches.

The other quarterfinal will feature two women who’ll turn 32 next month, with two-time finalist finalist Li Na beating No. 22 Ekaterina Makarova, 6-2, 6-0, and No. 28 Flavia Pennetta upsetting No. 9 Angelique Kerber, 6-1, 4-6, 7-5.

Reed fires third straight 63 La Quinta, Calif. — Another perfect day in the Coachella Valley. Another 9-under 63 for Patrick Reed in the Humana Challenge.

Reed broke the PGA Tour record for relation to par for the first 54 holes, finishing at 27 under Saturday to take a seven-stroke lead into the final round. The 23-year-old Reed broke the mark of 25 under set by Gay Brewer in the 1967 Pensacola Open and matched by Ernie Els in the 2003 Tournament of Champions, Steve Stricker in the 2010 John Deere Classic and Pat Perez in the 2009 La Quinta event.

Reed was one off Stricker’s stroke record of 188 set on a par-71 course.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a 65 on the Nicklaus course and was 11 under for the tournament, 16 strokes off the lead.

Mickelson surges in Abu Dhabi Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates — Phil Mickelson surged up the leaderboard with a 9-under 63 to put himself in second place after the third round of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship, while Rory McIlroy was hit with a two-shot penalty for a rules infraction that dropped him into a tie for fourth.

Mickelson barely made the cut but had the best round of the day with nine birdies and an eagle coupled with two bogeys to sit two shots behind leader Craig Lee of Scotland. Lee shot a 69 for a 12-under 204 total.

McIlroy thought he was alone in second place after finishing his round, but tournament officials then ruled that he had taken a drop incorrectly on the second hole.

Langer, Couples tied at top Kaupulehu-Kona, Hawaii — Bernhard Langer and Fred Couples broke away with birdies on the 17th to top the leaderboard going into today’s final round of the Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai.

Facing benign conditions for the 35th season opener for the Champions Tour, Langer shot an 8-under 64 to get to 14 under for the tournament. Couples caught him with his second straight 65.

Mark O’Meara was just one stroke back of the leaders. O’Meara was 7 under after seven holes and finished with a 65.

11 of her 22 shot attempts and seven of her nine free throws.

Henrickson said the 5-foot-8 guard’s one-onone ability makes her a problematic matchup every time she steps on the court. She scored at least 40 points three times this season, including a career-best 48 at West Virginia.

“She shoots the three, she shoots the floater in the lane, she can finish at the rim with contact, she’s got a pull-up jump shot,” Henrickson said of Sims. “She scores in all the ways you have to to be an elite perimeter player at this level. Then she’s unselfish, and she’ll pass and let go of it to get other guys shots.”

Sims only dished two assists against KU in the first meeting, but she averages 4.4 a game, to go with 31.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.0 steals.

The last thing Henrickson wants her players to do is foul Sims, an 83.1-percent shooter at the free-throw line.

“Then she’s scoring and resting,” the 10thyear KU coach said.

Kansas has dropped eight straight games against the Bears, and Henrickson admitted it can be difficult just to put a team in position to win against Baylor, coached

Carson, Calif. — Kansas University running back James Sims totaled 63 yards for the National Team in a 31-17 victory at the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl on Saturday at StubHub Center.

Sims had the first carry of the game for the National Team, but rushed for just 16 yards by halftime. In the third quarter, Sims helped set up

National T e a m touchdowns with a 13yard rush and a 20yard catch — his only Sims reception of the game. Sims finished with 10 rushes for 43 yards.

Sims, the second leading rusher among Big 12 running backs in his se-

OFFICIALS BREAK UP A SKIRMISH BETWEEN THE KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA STATE PLAYERS during the first half of the Jayhawks’ testy 80-78 victory on Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse.

Ford: Teams emotional, not ‘dirty’

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Despite a combined six technical fouls in 15th-ranked Kansas University’s 80-78 men’s basketball victory over No. 9 Oklahoma State on Saturday, neither KU coach Bill Self nor Oklahoma State coach Travis Ford believed there was anything nasty about Saturday’s classic Big 12 showdown in Allen Fieldhouse.

“It was emotion,” a disappointed Ford said after the game. “I don’t think any of it was dirty or anything like that. Two teams that played very, very

hard. They’ve got good kids. We’ve got good kids.

Two teams that were trying their hardest to win the game.”

Added OSU sophomore guard Marcus Smart, who put himself in the middle of all kinds of contact plays all day: “This is an emotional game. It’s a passionate game, especially with a game like this, as hyped up as it was. You had two teams coming at it that are very great teams with very talented players, so obviously you’re going to have emotions flying everywhere.”

The Cowboys, particularly, experienced all

sorts of highs and lows throughout Saturday’s 40-minute drama.

At tipoff, the Cowboys (15-3 overall, 3-2 Big 12) had more than a little bounce and took the floor determined to show they were ready to do what they did in this same building a year ago: win.

But by the eight-minute mark of the first half, they were down 14 points, the product of a 13-0 Kansas run, and had the howls of Allen Fieldhouse ringing in their ears.

With 48 seconds to play in the first half, the Cowboys trailed by a game-high 19 points, but less than seven minutes

of game clock later had trimmed KU’s lead to just four, 54-50, following a ferocious start to the second half.

“We should’ve come out like that the first half,” Smart said.

On an individual level, no Cowboy experienced that up-and-down flow quite like Smart, who finished with 16 points in 39 minutes but made just three of 14 shots from the floor.

It would be easy to say Smart had an off night, but — aside from his shooting — the rest of his stat line showed a different story. In fact, the AllAmerican candidate land-

ed just one assist shy of a triple-double, finishing with 10 rebounds, nine assists and four steals to go along with his poor shooting.

Asked after the game if all of his misfires had him in a foul mood, Smart shook it off.

“I wasn’t that frustrated,” Smart said. “I knew coming into this game they were going to do everything in their will not to let me score. So I had to become a facilitator, and I was finding the open guys, and my teammates were hitting open shots.”

Despite all of Saturday’s wild twists and

We stopped into a couple stores. Kansas ... these people are serious. They are committed. That’s what it’s all about,” Lori added.

It turns out Naadir turned to his mom and brothers for some support during an early-season stretch in which he wasn’t playing well. The 5-foot-11, 170-pounder lost his starting-point-guard job for two games (early December losses at Colorado and Florida) and regained it after a meeting with coach Bill Self.

He has been outstanding in helping KU (13-4) cruise to a 4-0 opening in Big 12 play.

“The last two weeks, he’ll call me an hour or two before the game. I say, ‘Naadir, are you calling because you need me to give you some advice?’

He’s like, ‘Yeah, mom.’’’

Her advice?

“I tell him, ‘You guys, for the whole time you are out there, you have to play tough because the other team is hungry like you. Guess what? You have to be a little bit more hungry every time. It’s a job. Go out there and do your job,’” Lori Tharpe related.

“He’s at a point now he’s feeling confident about himself. He’s going out there and doing what he needs to do. All this stuff he’s doing now, he did it back there (at Brewster Academy). It’s good to see him getting back to being himself again.

“It’s about getting to know who you are once again,” she went on, “keeping your feet on the ground. He’s always been

turns, the Cowboys somehow found themselves with possession in the waning seconds and a chance to tie or win. But instead of being the hero by hoisting a memorable shot, Le’Bryan Nash was stripped by KU freshman Frank Mason, and the Jayhawks (13-4, 4-0) came out on top.

“It’s incredible coming into this gym, this hostile environment, down 19 and coming all the way back and having a chance at the end,” Smart said.

Added Ford: “There’s definitely some positives that came out of this game. And quite a few negatives, too.”

OKLAHOMA STATE GUARD MARCUS SMART, LEFT, WRESTLES the ball away from Kansas center Joel Embiid during the second half. a balanced person. When you are balanced, sometimes you can lean to the left and lean to the right, but when you are ready to come back, you are coming back.”

Tharpe, who also had six assists against six turnovers in 39 minutes, was glad to play well in front of his relatives, who will remain in town for Monday’s 8 p.m. clash against Baylor.

“Having her in the stands with a couple of my brothers and other family members ... that was just a blessing,” Naadir said. “I loved having my mom be able to come out here and watch me play for the first time.”

The man who started those two December games in place of Tharpe — Frank Mason — also was involved in some big plays during crunch time.

First, Mason, a 5-11 freshman guard, missed the

front end of a one-andone free-throw situation with :23.1 left and KU up, 79-75.

OSU’s Phil Forte (23 points, 7-for-10 from three) drained a three at 5.7 seconds left to slice the gap to 79-78. Next, Mason was fouled with 5.4 seconds remaining.

He hit the front end of the one-and-one, then missed the second, and KU led by just two, 80-78, with OSU charging downcourt for a final shot.

Mason was able to get a hand on the ball as Le’Bryan Nash (10 points, 5-for-11 shooting) went up to shoot from inside the arc. Nash was able to regroup and launch a shot that would not have counted had it dropped.

“Yes,” Mason said, asked if he was nervous stepping to the line. “I was nervous because I didn’t want to lose. I knew all the pressure was on me.

I had to make a good defensive play after missing those two free throws.”

Asked how he was able to get a hand on the ball on Nash’s shot, Mason said: “My hands are very fast and active. I saw him going up for a jump shot.

I just reached down and stripped it. I was close to the ball when he released for a jump shot.”

The Jayhawks were victimized by combined 8-of-13 three-point shooting by Forte and Markel Brown (16 points) the second half as OSU battled back from a 17-point halftime deficit (47-30).

The OSU scare raised the question: Was there a sense of accomplishment or relief in the locker room following a victory attained despite an ineffective Andrew Wiggins (three points) and Perry Ellis (six points) playing just 12 and five minutes the second half?

Wiggins left with nine minutes to play and didn’t return until 1:06.

“It was accomplishment definitely more than relief,” Tharpe said.

“They’ve been talking about Oklahoma State and Kansas for a while.

Since the beginning of the year, that’s all we’ve been hearing. It’s all we’ve been hearing even before conference play started: Oklahoma State, Oklahoma State. It’s more an accomplishment we went out there and played our game more than anything.”

The coach’s perspective was a bit different after an ultra-competitive game in which there were six technical fouls and a double foul.

“It’s a sense of relief,” Self countered. “We didn’t play a lick the second half. We played well the first half with a free mind. It flip flopped (sec-

NOTEBOOK

Chippiness just two ‘tough’ teams “I mean, I just have to keep my cool and stay calm — and not have any dumb fouls anymore,” Embiid said.

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University senior Tarik Black isn’t surprised six technical fouls and a double foul were called in the Jayhawks’ 80-78 victory over Oklahoma State on Saturday in Allen Fieldhouse.

“We are rivals, both tough teams. We are not soft,” Black said after a game in which KU’s Jamari Traylor, Joel Embiid and Wayne Selden were given Ts, as well as Oklahoma State’s Markel Brown (2) and Stevie Clark.

“Stuff is going to happen, especially two teams like that in a game as important as this. We never expect to be perfect. It comes with being a tough team,” Black added.

No punches were thrown during several skirmishes. Selden did clip OSU’s Marcus Smart with an inadvertent elbow as the two chased a ball headed out of bounds in the second half.

“They did a lot of talking and shoving and stuff like that,” KU’s Naadir Tharpe said. “We came

KANSAS COACH BILL SELF REACTS after a secondhalf KU turnover. back and just attacked them, and that’s what we needed to do.”

Coach Bill Self’s take: “It was guys making plays that weren’t smart, especially from our standpoint.”

Self knows why emotions ran high, though.

“Marcus Smart doing a backflip (after last year’s OSU win in Allen), that

was our fault (for losing).

It wasn’t his fault, but the media was able to play on that,” Self said. “I think because the media played on it, I think both teams were tuned up pretty good today, which is good, positive. We need that.”

Joel Embiid received a T for a third straight game.

Near triple: Embiid, KU’s freshman center, nearly had a triple-double with 13 points, 11 rebounds and a KU-freshman-record eight blocks.

“I told Joel as soon as he stepped foot on campus, ‘You’re going to be the No. 1 pick (in NBA Draft). Now, it may not be this year, but you will be a No. 1 pick if you come out and the time is right.’ I’m not saying he will be this year. When he comes out, if he stays and he times it right, he could be No. 1 pick in the draft,” Self said. “I don’t think it (success) should come as a surprise to him because he’s been told all along he’s capable of doing this.” l

Double turnover: A big play took place when OSU’s Marcus Smart stole the ball from Tharpe, and Tharpe stole it right back with KU up, 59-56. Tharpe followed the sequence by hitting a

three and stretching KU’s lead to six with 10 minutes left.

“That was big because I don’t like getting the ball stolen from me at all, especially off of the dribble. It kind of hit off my leg, and then he ripped it from me, but I knew he didn’t have a chance to run, and I was still right there, so I just tried to get a jump ball and rip it back away, and luckily I was able to get it back, and we came out with a basket,” Tharpe said as KU avoided completely squandering a game-high lead of 19 points. l

Broken thumb: KU sophomore Evan Manning broke his right thumb at practice this week and will be out three weeks, Self stated. l

No foul: Self said he didn’t consider fouling OSU on its final possession. KU had four team fouls as Le’Bryan Nash raced downcourt with five seconds left and OSU down by two. Self said the Jayhawks hadn’t practiced such a situation, thus wouldn’t do that in a

game until it had been addressed at practice. l

Greene does well: Freshman Brannen Greene scored five points the first half while working seven minutes. He didn’t play the second half. “I just try to come bring energy. I fed off my teammates,” Greene said.

“I thought they started great. Tarik (Black, eight points first half) and those guys bringing energy. I felt it only right I do the same thing.” l

Faces in crowd: Among the notables in the crowd: Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, plus former KU players Elijah Johnson, Jordan Juenemann, Bryant Nash, Tyrel Reed, Dave Robisch, Wayne Simien, Jeff Graves, Kevin Young. Former KU forward Paul Pierce had a taped segment on the video board in which he said, “Beware of the Phog.” l

Vs. ranked: The Jayhawks are now 4-2 against ranked opponents in 201314 and 3-0 against top-10 foes (No. 4 Duke; No. 8 Iowa State, No. 9 OSU).

after he started playing organized basketball as a junior in high school, Traylor hit one on his way to a 3-for-3 shooting day. He also made all three free throws he attempted.

Tarik Black, KU’s other muscle-bound post player, had as much as anybody to do with a 47-30 halftime lead. He rocked the ball behind his head and threw down a two-handed slam on his way to eight points, a big blocked shot and 4-of-5 shooting. He didn’t play a minute in the second half because starting center Joel Embiid dominated the much shorter Cowboys.

Having such physical reserves behind the athletic, skilled finesse big starters gives Self the option to bring on the muscle when the circumstances called for it, such as they did in Saturday’s heated contest in which six technical fouls were called.

“I pretty much just try to come in, defend, re-

The Jayhawks have the potential to bring better ballhandling off the bench as well, should they be on the way to another 14-turnover half

such as KU experienced Saturday in letting a lead leak away. Frankamp (three turnovers in 86 minutes) could lend a steadying hand and at times a hot one as well, complementing the big-play hand of Frank Mason, who made the game-saving play by swatting the ball away from Le’Bryan Nash before he could get up a shot.

Self even let Brannen Greene out of his doghouse for a productive

seven-minute run, all in the first half. It was the most Greene had played in a game since getting 16 minutes vs. New Mexico on Dec. 14, also the date of Greene’s most recent field goal before Saturday.

Greene rewarded his coach’s renewed faith in him with five points, 2-of-3 shooting from the field and one of two three-pointers, to go with an offensive rebound.

Clearly, KU’s starters aren’t the only ones improving.

BIG 12 ROUNDUP

Texas hands Iowa State third straight loss was deflected. O’Neale came away with the ball and turned for a shot, but it came after the buzzer and the basket that would have forced overtime didn’t count.

Oklahoma got into the AP poll this week for the first time since November 2009, then promptly lost 72-66 at Kansas State while shooting a seasonworst 33 percent. The Sooners were even worse than that in the first half Saturday before getting things on target in their big run.

The Associated Press

Men Texas 86, No. 8 Iowa State 76 Austin, Texas — Week by week, win by win, Texas keeps gaining confidence.

And the latest, an impressive victory over Iowa State, has the Longhorns looking like a very dangerous team in the Big 12.

Jonathan Holmes scored 23 points, and Cam Ridley had 16 points and 11 rebounds as Texas overpowered the struggling Cyclones on Saturday.

It took Texas (14-4, 3-2) nearly a month to get its first Big 12 win last season, the program’s first losing season in 15 years.

A 0-2 start in league play had the look of a similar dismal finish, but the Longhorns have now won three in a row.

“We feel we’re as good as anybody when we put our best on the floor,” Texas guard Javan Felix said.

The schedule will keep testing that with Kansas State, Baylor and Kansas in the next three games.

But it’s clear Texas can make trouble for any team on the right day.

“I told our guys, ‘We’ll see how we handle it,’” Texas coach Rick Barnes said.

Felix scored 17, including a big three-pointer in the momentum-changing run in the second half and a layup in the final minute that helped the Longhorns protect their lead.

Texas also protected the ball as well as it has all season with just eight turnovers.

The Cyclones are headed in the opposite direction after a 14-0 start. Against Texas, the Iowa State (143, 2-3) struggled to find scoring when three-pointers misfired and couldn’t match the physical presence of Holmes and Ridley in the second half.

Georges Niang scored 18 to lead Iowa State, which hadn’t lost three in a row since the 2010-11 season.

Melvin Ejim scored 17 for the Cyclones, who went 11-of-32 on threepointers. DeAndre Kane, who scored at least 20 in the previous three games, scored 15 against Texas and disappeared from the Cyclones’ offense for long stretches.

Iowa State, which shot just 39 percent, hasn’t won in Austin since 2005.

Iowa State appeared comfortable early behind three-point shooting that built a 29-20 lead and threatened to blow the game open in the first half. But five straight turnovers helped Texas

TEXAS’ JONATHAN HOLMES (10) CELEBRATES AFTER SCORING AGAINST IOWA STATE during the second half Saturday in Austin, Texas. Texas won, 86-76. close the half with a 16-7 run. Felix’s catch-andshoot three-pointer tied it at 36-36.

“We couldn’t keep the momentum going because we couldn’t stop turning the ball over,” Iowa State coach Fred Hoiberg said.

Texas built a 51-44 lead over the first seven minutes of the second.

The Cyclones committed four fouls in a 50-second stretch and Holmes made three straight baskets, two of them on putback layups after misses. Texas looked ready to put the game away when Ridley made a tough layup, then followed with a rim-shaking trailing dunk after a miss by Taylor.

“He’s a beast,” Hoiberg said of Ridley. “He was a tough matchup for us in terms of size and strength.”

Niang slowed Texas’ momentum with a trailing three-pointer, before the Longhorns quickly grabbed it again. Felix made a three-pointer and Holmes came up with two more big plays: a tip-in and a driving layup over two defenders that pushed the lead to 67-58 with seven minutes to play.

A basket by Ridley and free throws by Felix and

Taylor built Texas’ lead as high as 75-61.

Iowa State slowly chipped away. Ejim pulled the Cylones within five at 76-71 on a long three from the right corner with 1:29 left. Texas sealed the win with a fastbreak layup from Felix and clutch free-throw shooting down the stretch.

No. 25 Oklahoma 66, No. 12 Baylor 64 Waco, Texas — Buddy Hield scored all 19 of his points after halftime, and Oklahoma stormed from behind with a big run on the way to a victory at Baylor.

The Sooners (14-4, 3-2 Big 12) were down by eight right after halftime

before reeling off 16 consecutive points. Baylor regained the lead on a putback by Cory Jefferson with 9:13 left, and the lead changed hands three more times and there were three ties before Heild’s three-pointer with 4 minutes left made it 58-57. That put the Sooners ahead to stay.

Baylor (13-4, 1-3) had won 13 straight home games, and their only non-conference loss was to No. 2 Syracuse. The Bears next play at No. 15 Kansas on Monday night.

Jordan Woodard made two free throws with 29 seconds left for a 65-58 lead. Baylor’s 7-foot-1 center Isaiah Austin then hit a three-pointer from the top of the key before Woodard, a 78 percent free-throw shooter, missed after being fouled with 18 seconds left.

Austin hit another three from pretty much the same spot, and Woodard had the ball again and was fouled. Woodard made the second of two free throws with 9.1 seconds left, leaving Baylor with one more chance.

After point guard Kenny Chery brought the ball down the court and passed it to Royce O’Neale whose pass toward Austin

Kansas State’s lockdown defense continues to blossom as the Wildcats limited West Virginia to 32.7 percent shooting (16 of 49).

The Mountaineers entered averaging 79.9 points per game while shooting just under 46 percent. The 22-point loss was the largest loss of the season for the Mountaineers.

AFC CHAMPIONSHIP

Manning, Brady set for epic QB clash Denver (ap) — Only one of them can be the greatest.

Peyton Manning could be the one — owner of a record four, working on five, Most Valuable Player awards, current holder of NFL single-season records for passing yardage and touchdowns and architect of a career-reviving second act, the likes of which has rarely been seen in any sport.

Tom Brady could also be that man — leader of five Super Bowl teams and winner of three titles, one-time holder of some of the records Manning holds now and author of an undefeated regular season. He also has that 10-4 record against Manning despite constant turnover on his roster and a lack of a star-studded receiving corps.

Manning and Brady will meet today for the 15th time, and the fourth time in the postseason, when the Broncos (14-3) face the Patriots (13-4) in the AFC title game.

The winner between the top two quarterbacks over an era in which quarterbacks have never been so good will get what could be the last say in the debate over who goes down as the greatest — not so much because of what the win-loss numbers will say but because this could be the last time they meet with the stakes so high.

“I don’t know that there will ever be another rivalry like it, or has been a rivalry like it,” said John Elway, whose own rival-

ry with Dan Marino was held to only three meetings because of scheduling quirks over their decade-plus careers.

The game will either give Brady a chance to match Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw for a fourth title or afford Manning the opportunity to win a second ring, which would put him one behind Brady, and in the same company with his brother, Eli, Roger Staubach and Elway, among others. It would also

make Manning the first QB to win championships with two different teams.

While paying ultimate respect to each other — “I feel like he’s been a better player each year than he was the year before,” Manning said — neither quarterback professes to care much about how their own head-to-head showdowns will define their legacy.

Don’t believe it, says Phil Simms, who admits in retirement that the smile was a little wider after he walked off the field with a win over a Staubach or Joe Theismann.

“It’s always personal, no matter what,” Simms said. “It’s part of being a competitor and doing what you do.”

One reason Brady has a .714 win percentage in the head-to-head meetings and also holds a 2-1 advantage in the playoffs is because, more often than not, he’s been surrounded by the more complete team.

He has been anything but a one-man show in New England this season, illustrated best by the fact that the Patriots are in the AFC title game even though Brady threw for 25 touchdowns — less than half of Manning’s record-setting 55.

Without Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez or Wes Welker to throw to, Brady made it work, with a big assist from head coach Bill Belichick and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who used to coach the Broncos.

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP

Seahawks, 49ers fulfill destiny with conference title on line Seattle (ap) — From the first kickoff back in September, the 49ers and Seahawks seemed destined to meet for the NFC title.

Time to get it on.

With the conference’s most physical, relentless defenses, adept at forcing turnovers and making opponents think twice about, well, just about anything, Seattle (now 143) won the NFC West by one game over San Francisco (now 14-4). The offenses, while not nearly as imposing, have the right elements for a champion: strong running games, efficient and sometimes dynamic quarterbacks, and staunch lines.

Their coaches have the proper pedigree, as well.

Jim Harbaugh has led the 49ers to the NFC championship game in all three seasons in charge, making the Super Bowl last year.

Pete Carroll had a 28-23 record in three seasons as Patriots coach, then went to the college ranks and built a powerhouse at Southern California, with two national titles.

That there’s no love lost between Harbaugh and Carroll dating back to when they both were working in college — Harbaugh at Stanford, where he ran up the score on Carroll’s Trojans — adds plenty of spice.

The sum total on both sides should be a worthy conference champion to meet either Denver or New England in two weeks in the New Jersey Meadowlands for the NFL crown.

Even if both teams are playing down the drama they figure to provide before an ear-shattering

wall of noise today at CenturyLink Field.

“I think it’s pretty much, the game’s a bigger stage and gets you to the Super Bowl obviously,” said 49ers defensive lineman Justin Smith. “But I think for the most part how we’ve gone into every game in the year’s past is we try to be as regimented as possible in how we do things. We’re not going to get all caught up in ‘This game gets us to the Super Bowl or this and that.’ We all know.

There’s nothing that needs to be said or a special meeting or anything.”

Just football.

“It’s like every game,” Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson confirmed. “Every game is no different even though it’s a championship game and all of that. We talk about playing 1-0 every week, and the game doesn’t change.

“It comes down to not turning over the football, being in the plus in that situation, having a limited amount of penalties; you’re going to get some penalties, especially in a game like this, but not having too many of them.

“The biggest thing is just staying on schedule.”

The schedule brought these teams together in September and December. Seattle won 29-3 at home in Week 2, then lost 19-17 at San Francisco on Dec. 8.

CenturyLink Field might be the toughest venue in the NFL for visitors, with architecture that not only keeps the noise inside the stadium, but funnels it toward the field itself. Wilson became a starter as a rookie in 2012 and went undefeated. He won his first six home starts this season before a stumble against Arizona, but then Seattle defeated St. Louis to finish off the regular season, and New Orleans in a divisional-round playoff last weekend.

“That’s pretty spectacular and it just shows how amazing our fans are, how much energy the city has for our football team,” Wilson said of the supersonic sound levels the 49ers can expect.

money on a Missouri River environmental study for a third straight year under a $1.1 trillion government-wide spending bill.

Missouri Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer introduced the amendment that would prohibit funding for the Missouri River Ecosystem Restoration Plan, a study that conservationists say is needed but farming and levee groups strongly dislike. President Barack Obama signed the spending bill Friday.

The plan “was initially created to prevent habitat loss and recover endangered species but has turned into little more than a federally funded and sanctioned platform for environmental activists who have no regard for our river communities,” Luetkemeyer said in a written statement.

The study was authorized in 2007 and was intended to culminate in a plan that would guide restoration and recovery efforts along the river for the next 30 to 50 years.

The U.S. Army Corps of

— Jennifer Switzer, chief of planning for the corps’ Kansas City office

Engineers, which conducted the study in partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, spent $16.6 million on the research before funding was yanked after extensive flooding in 2011 led to a backlash against environmental projects.

The flooding began after the corps began releasing massive amounts of water from reservoirs in Montana, Nebraska and the Dakotas that had been inundated with melting snow and heavy rains. Many levees in downstream states such as Iowa and Missouri were no match for weeks of sustained pressure and gave way. Homes and farms were damaged or ruined.

Amid the flooding, many farmers claimed that the wildlife restoration efforts had diverted the focus away from flood control — something the corps denies.

Jennifer Switzer, chief of planning for the corps’ Kansas City office, said the ongoing defunding of the study limits the agency’s ability to take a longterm look at environmental issues.

“Without a long-range study like this, you have a more short-term view of the world and kind of operate on a project-toproject basis or a year-toyear basis,” she said.

Goals of the study included looking for ways to restore some of the same functions to the Missouri River as existed before the waterway was dammed and straightened, making it more than 200 miles shorter than the river at the time of Lewis and Clark.

Workers also narrowed the channel so the water would flow deeper and faster, helping boat operators and making it selfscouring, which removed the need to dredge it.

Many remain wary of W.Va. water as chemical smell lingers

By Ben Nuckols Associated Press

Charleston, W.Va. — The smell lingers — the slightly sweet, slightly bitter odor of a chemical that contaminated the water supply of West Virginia’s capital more than a week ago. It creeps out of faucets and shower heads. It wafts from the Elk River, the site of the spill. Sometimes it hangs in the cold nighttime air.

For several days, a majority of Charlestonarea residents have been told their water is safe to drink, that the concentration of a chemical used to wash coal is so low that it won’t be harmful. Restaurants have reopened — using tap water to wash dishes and produce, clean out their soda fountains and make ice.

But as long as people can still smell it, they’re wary — and given the lack of knowledge about the chemical known as MCHM, some experts say their caution is justified.

“I would certainly be waiting until I couldn’t smell it anymore, certainly to be drinking it,” said

Richard Denison, a scientist with the Environmental Defense Fund who has followed the spill closely.

“I don’t blame people at all for raising questions and wondering whether they can trust what’s being told to them.”

The Jan. 9 spill from a Freedom Industries facility on the banks of the Elk River, less than 2 miles upstream from Charleston’s water treatment plant, led to a ban on water use that affected 300,000 people.

Four days later, officials started to lift the ban

in one area after another, saying tap water was safe for drinking because the concentration of the chemical dipped below one part per million, even though the smell was still strong at that level. By Friday afternoon, nearly all of the 300,000 people impacted had been told the water was safe.

Late Wednesday, however, health officials issued different guidance for pregnant women, urging them not to drink tap water until the chemical is entirely undetectable.

LAWRENCE MUSICIAN AND STREET PERFORMER MIKE CALVILLO says he will often play his guitar four to five times a week downtown when the weather is warm enough. Calvillo is among a number of musicians who spontaneously perform on the sidewalks of downtown Lawrence.

hether you gawk or throw a dollar in the guitar case, the buskers of Lawrence continue to set up shop on a vacant corner of Mass. Street and perform for a constant rotating audience.

“A good street performer will not let sirens or children or hecklers or anything like that stop them from being an entertainer,” says 30-year street-performing veteran Richard Renner.

Busking, or street entertaining, isn’t uncommon in these parts of town, often hearing a slow transition from lively zydeco music to moving jazz solos as you walk from one side of the block to the next. If you’re lucky you stumble upon “lady with maraca” (not yet tracked down) or Tom Krause, aka the “Bottle man,” on a homemade yard-long row of glass vessels he calls a bottle flute.

Let us introduce you to a few of the stories behind the street performances. See more profiles on page 4C.

The world-traveling Billy Ebeling At the age of 25, “townie” Billy Ebeling took it upon himself to leave Lawrence to busk around the world with his guitar, traveling through the streets of the States, Fiji, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong. What he learned from all of it is that some people love it, some people don’t.

“I played the other night [at a Lawrence venue], and this guy got on the mic and said when he was at the University of Kansas, he saw me playing and it changed his life,” Ebeling says.

But he’s also gotten tickets from cops.

“I’ve been thrown in jail and had the guitar confiscated,” he says. “So, lifechanging to criminal.”

The perception of busk-

LAWRENCE MUSICIAN BILLY EBELING says he hasn’t “had a real job since 1985.” ing varies depending on where you play, he says, noting that his spontaneous playing abroad was welcomed with much more warmth than in Lawrence.

Some people here wouldn’t even know what it means

to be a busker.

“I think they just look at it as a bum with a talent,” Ebeling says.

Not that it stops him.

Since he came across a fiddler at a festival in Phoenix and had an “aha moment”

seeing busking for the first time, he knew he wanted to be a full-time musician, and has done so since 1985.

“There’s a freedom to it, you know,” he says. “Play as long as you want to play, whatever you want to play.

And it’s always there for you if you want to do it.”

You never know who will appreciate the music.

After receiving — what he and his brothers thought was a prank — phone call from Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour, he was hired to play a show following a Pink Floyd concert in Auckland, New Zealand.

Gilmour had seen them playing downtown, and ended up giving them backstage passes for the concert, and paying them double for the afterparty performance.

The ‘extraordinary’ Tyler Gregory Blues-roots singer songwriter Tyler Gregory is hands-down a town favorite, referred to as the coup de grace of Lawrence street musicians. Starting at 16 in Lawrence, Gregory has busked all over the country from the streets of Chicago to the subways of New York to the shore of Venice Beach.

His popularity stems further than the 250 to 300 shows he performs on tour each year around the nation in different venues. An ordinary performance in May 2012 in front of Third Planet at Ninth and Massachusetts streets turned into a touching moment of the connection his music made with a blind, autistic young boy named Jacob. The 8-year-old boy slowly come up to Gregory bobbing his head, and putting his hand on Gregory’s leg, then guitar.

Jacob’s mom posted the video to YouTube, and it went viral, now having more than 700,000 views. Gregory was contacted by Ellen DeGeneres, “Good Morning America” and a number of radio stations.

“It was just as touching for me, but I didn’t think that anything would come of it,” he says. “It warmed my heart having that child come up to me while I was playing. I’ve never felt anything like that before. Literally the energy was radiating off of him. When he touched my guitar it seemed as if it all connected and he was showing his appreciation as I was showing my thankfulness. ” No matter where his travels take him, he posts up and provides the soundtrack for any scene, sometimes providing bar fight tunes at two in the morning, or recently pulling out his banjo on a hike in Colorado surrounded by people with other items like climbing gear.

“The oddest place I’ve ever found myself busking, though, I wasn’t playing for tips,” Gregory says. “Maybe motivation for the hikers.

The spy who keeps getting younger

T

here are few film franchises as muddled and confusing as the Jack Ryan action series, which Paramount resurrects today with Chris Pine in the starring role in “Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit.”

In 1992’s “Patriot Games,” Harrison Ford played retired CIA agent Ryan, who in Tom Clancy’s novel is actually younger than the Jack Ryan that Alec Baldwin originated in 1990’s submarine adventure “The Hunt for Red October.” By the time 2002’s laughable nuclear war “thriller” “The Sum of All Fears” came around, Ryan had aged backward once again, played by a baby-faced Ben Affleck.

“Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit” solves the hairy timeline inconsistencies by starting over. It is the first movie in the franchise to not be based on a Tom Clancy book. Instead, it’s an original story — written and revised by at least five screenwriters over five years — that gives the attacks on 9/11 as the reason that super-smart university student Ryan drops out and joins the Marines to fight in Afghanistan. Soon afterward, a mysterious CIA man (Kevin Costner) recognizes Ryan’s courage and recruits him as a CIA analyst.

Much like the latest reboot of the James Bond series, “Shadow Recruit” gives our hero a rich backstory before delving into what you’d expect.

The first 20 minutes of the film covers a lot of ground, organically demonstrating Ryan’s bravery, determination and patriotism. Pine is a big part of that, bringing Ryan to life as a real person — one who occasionally gets in over his head and is actually nervous about it, instead of acting like a puffed-up action cliché.

Last living female ‘Oz’ Munchkin dies Las Vegas (ap) — Ruth Robinson Duccini, the last of the original female Munchkins from the 1939 movie “The Wizard of Oz,” has died. She was 95.

With her death, only one actor who played one of the original 124 Munchkins in the movie remains alive.

Duccini died of natural causes in Solari Hospice Care Center in Las Vegas on Thursday.

Her death was confirmed by Stephen Cox, author of “The Munchkins of Oz.” He says he learned of it from Duccini’s son.

Duccini, born in Rush City, Minn., traveled to California with a troupe of little people, and was cast in the MGM fantasy movie starring Judy Garland.

Duccini was 4 feet tall.

Cox provided a recent statement made by Duccini about her time on the movie set.

“It was long hours and heavy costumes. We didn’t have much time for ourselves. It was all new to me then, and I loved being a part of what is now a classic,” she said.

Duccini met her husband while working at MGM, and the two had a

son and daughter.

She worked as a “Rosie the Riveter” in Santa Monica, Calif., during World War II, using her short stature to squeeze into hard-to-reach parts of planes. She also appeared in the spoof “Under the Rainbow” starring Chevy Chase and Carrie Fisher.

In her later years, Duccini appeared at festivals and screenings celebrating “The Wizard of Oz.” The only surviving original Munchkin is Jerry Maren, 93, of Los Angeles, who portrayed a member of the Lollipop Guild.

BRIEFLY Wilt Chamberlain film ‘Jayhawkers’ to premiere at Lied Center “Jayhawkers,” a film by Kansas University professor and filmmaker Kevin Willmott, will have its Midwest premiere at the Lied Center on Feb. 14.

“Jayhawkers,” which was partially filmed in Lawrence, documents the recruitment and Kansas career of Wilt Chamberlain.

It focuses on how his presence within the university’s basketball program affected race relations in Kansas and across the country during the ‘50s.

Current KU forward Justin Wesley makes his debut performance in the lead role as Chamberlain.

The film was co-written

and directed by Willmott, a KU film and media studies professor, whose past films include “C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America” and “The Only Good Indian.”

Showings of the film

will be 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.

Feb. 14; 11 a.m., 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. Feb. 15; and 1 p.m., 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Feb. 16.

GOV. SAM BROWNBACK GREETS Rep. Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, as Brownback enters the House of Representatives chamber to deliver his State of the State address Wednesday at the Kansas Statehouse. I planned out my photo position and angle of coverage, in advance to better predict a storytelling photograph.

Planning for the perfect photo op

I

was standing in the balcony of the House of Representatives, just above the Speaker’s chair where Gov. Brownback would give his State of the State address, when a nearby photographer mentioned the importance of luck in getting good photographs.

Several of us had chosen the lofty location because it would provide an unobstructed view of the governor as he entered the chambers and walked down the aisle shaking hands with legislators. Luck can play a role in many of the images photographers create, but common sense and a little planning will improve your odds.

The Roman philosopher Seneca said, “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” Kansas University basketball great Danny Manning used the same quote after KU’s well-executed 83-79 win over the University of Oklahoma in the NCAA championship game in 1988. While I know for a fact that none of us with cameras in the House balcony were all-star power forwards or philosophers; we were all there because we recognized the importance of preparation.

Three hours before the governor’s speech, I had walked the empty House chamber floor, searching out the desks and seat locations of Lawrence’s legislators. I found Rep. Paul Davis’ desk on the center aisle, below the Speaker’s podium.

The odds were pretty good that the governor would pass by Davis and they would shake hands. Davis is running against Brownback as a Democratic candidate for Kansas governor in 2014.

That hand-shaking moment would be my lucky shot — my planned photographic opportunity.

I moved around the balcony to determine the best position and lens angle for my shot. Although my angle would probably not capture Davis’ face, I was pretty sure the governor’s face would be revealed in the

BEHIND THE LENS

his week is the fifth annual Kansas City Restaurant Week. From now through Jan. 26, over 125 different restaurants and cafes have prepared special lunch and dinner menus to give people a chance to taste why so many have hailed Kansas City as one of the nation’s top emerging culinary destinations.

If you’re not sure what the big fuss about Restaurant Week is, I recommend downloading the app (just search for “Kansas City Restaurant Week” on Apple or Android devices) and having a look around.

One of the biggest draws is the opportunity to dine at the city’s finest restaurants at a relatively low cost. Lunch menus are $15, and dinners are $33, with most of them including an appetizer, entree and dessert from among several options in each category.

Another special feature of Kansas City Restaurant Week is the charity component. Part of the proceeds go to Harvesters, and in 2013, the event raised $86,000 to go toward feeding hungry families.

Because of all the buzz the event creates, it’s a good idea to make reservations ahead of time using OpenTable.com (some of

the more popular destinations, such as the Bluestem Bistro, are already booked through next weekend).

OpenTable can also help you narrow down the restaurants by category, though I recommend just scrolling through the menus being offered. Even if you don’t get to sample the multi-course menus this week, you might get an idea of where you’d like to get a nice meal the next time you visit Kansas City.

A few quick dining recommendations: Cafe Sebastienne, located in the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art (4420 Warwick Blvd.) is well-known for its modern American cuisine. The Cafe is offering a special lunch menu from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

The museum itself is free, and houses an impressive collection of mostly 20thcentury art.

Room 39 is another exceptional modern American cafe with locations on 39th Street just east of State Line (near Kansas University Hospital) and another in Leawood at 10561 Mission Road.

Room 39 is known for creativity and originality in its flavor pairings, and the Restaurant Week lunch and dinners should not disappoint. Room 39 is also a great location to enjoy a leisurely morning cup of coffee and plate of French toast.

Dining at Webster House, located in the Crossroads just south of the Kauffman Center, is a bit like enjoying a meal at an English manor house.

The restaurant is made up of several different dining rooms on the second floor of an antique shop. The perfect place for a pre-performance meal and glass of wine, Webster House is also running lunch and dinner specials during Restaurant Week. See Websterhousekc.com for store and restaurant hours.

Theater and performance Dinner and the theater is a natural pairing, so let’s look at some of this week’s performances.

The Kansas City Repertory Theatre, in collaboration with UMKC Theatre, is presenting Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet” at the Spencer Theatre, 4949 Cherry St. Tickets range from $20 to $60 and are available at kcrep.org. The performance runs nightly except Mondays through Feb. 9.

Younger audiences will enjoy “Shrek: The Musical,” presented by The Barn Players, a local troupe that got its start in 1955 in a barn that was once home to Lawrin, a Kentucky Derby-winning horse (it’s true — I’ve

been to the horse’s grave). Today the Barn Players operate out of a more modern facility at 6219 Martway in Mission.

“Shrek: The Musical” is being performed at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m.

Tickets cost $10 and admission is free for those 4 and under. Purchase at thebarnplayers.org.

At 7:30 p.m. Friday, area dance enthusiasts will be treated to a visit by the Moscow Festival Ballet, who will be performing “The Sleeping Beauty” at the Kauffman Center, set to Tchaikovsky’s score.

The performance is being presented as part of the Harriman-Jewell Series, and tickets ($25 to $75) are for sale at hjseries.org.

Harlem Globetrotters Finally, fresh off their 2013 visit to North Korea, The Harlem Globetrotters will be playing a doubleheader at the Sprint Center at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Saturday. I’m going to go out on a limb here and predict a “W” for the red, white and blue. Tickets start at $20 and are for sale at sprintcenter.com.

Mike Calvillo of Cowgirl’s Train Set When he’s not being the frontman onstage for seven-piece local band Cowgirl’s Train Set, or working for KU on Wheels or working for Shamrock Tree Service, Mike Calvillo is working on his artist craft on Mass. Street during the summer. He will often play songs that he wrote for the band as a solo act, which ends up being a very different experience without the help of his fellow bandmates. “You consistently learn and grow as a musician every day,� he says.

Calvillo likes to play

a mixture of blues, jazz and folk and world music influences with the grittiness of punk rock. His beginning busking days a few years ago were nerve-wracking, sometimes leaving the scene after half an hour, plagued by the feeling that his resonant voice and guitar could actually be upsetting those who are trying to enjoy that quality time with their family. “That does go through my head,� he says. “I am very loud, and sometimes that can be deterring to a lot of people.

But sometimes you just get the right crowd.�

Sometimes his music connects with at least 30 people dancing around him, all feeling the music in that moment. It’s a rush nothing else can give him. “It’s almost a euphoric high,� he says. “A full-body experience.�

It’s almost a matter of strategy, Calvillo says, finding just the right time and place (“the Third Planet corner is golden�) to start playing.

People are often generous around noon when they are out shopping, and stingy during the late night bar rush, as they are looking to spend that money on drinks.

LAWRENCE BUSKER RICHARD RENNER has been known to juggle, play an accordion, and ride a unicycle, and sometimes mixes his talents in the same act.

Odd act Richard Renner While it’s not surprising that music is the bulk of the busking scene in Lawrence, we do have some “circus act� buskers amidst us. Renner produces the annual Lawrence Busker Festival (this year Aug. 22 through 24) downtown, where attendees can dive into “a world where freaks, geeks, oddities, artists and out-ofthe-box entertainers run wild.�

Pitches, or stages, are set up on the streets sectioned off between Eighth and 10th for 25 different local and international acts.

But Renner isn’t lacking his own skills. After graduating from Kansas University in 1981 with a theater degree and a series of “useless� talents like juggling, unicycle riding and walking on stilts, he naturally gravitated to the street-performing field. “I started hanging out with the wrong kind of people — street performers and clowns and musicians,�

Renner says.

He furthered his skills at confer-

ences learning from teachers across the country, until hired by Kansas City company Mimewock. A small accordion in hand for one routine, he channeled his inner clown. “I play ‘Pop Goes the Weasel’ very badly,� Renner says. “But I’m not a Ringling Bros. clown. I’m more of a Dick Van Dyke, Red Skelton, Jerry Lewis kind of clown.�

Renner enjoys the spontaneity of street performing, a distinct memory performing with a fireeater friend, who set himself on fire. After grabbing a McDonald’s milkshake from a little girl standing nearby and pouring it on him (not a part of the act), he helped put out the fire and drove him directly to the nearest hospital. “But we got the biggest hat,� he says. “We got the most money from that show that I’ve ever gotten. I thought, maybe I should think about pursuing other venues other than the street if this is what it takes.�

Michael Bradley on guitar, Barry “Washboard� Barnes and Tommee Sherwood on Cajun accordion make up a 10-year-going funky act on Eighth and Mass. every Friday night called Zydeco Tougeau. “People are still surprised when they hear it,� Barnes says.

Stomping their feet, hooting and hollering, with Barnes twirling his hat in the air and leading vocal sections of “liggy liggy lie, liggy liggy lo� definitely stops people in their tracks at this unexpected mix between Cajun and zydeco far more popular in the South. “We do it for the potential of kids freaking out,� Barnes says.

Ten or more random young kids often form a sideshow on the sidewalk, frantically dancing along to the strong rhythm of the music.

Oscar snubs attest to strong year for movies

By John Horn Los Angeles Times

Tom Hanks’ starring role in “Captain Phillips” was one of his most acclaimed performances in a distinguished career.

But the two-time Oscar winner, who is also a governor of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, took nothing for granted — working tirelessly to promote “Captain Phillips” and his other big film, “Saving Mr. Banks,” in which he plays Walt Disney.

But when Academy Award nominations were read out before dawn Thursday, Hanks’ name was never called.

Cold-blooded snub?

Probably not. Instead, Hanks’ double omission is more proof that 2013 was indeed a golden year for film, one in which there were so many strong (and commercially successful) films that academy members couldn’t include all those worthy of recognition.

Emma Thompson wasn’t nominated for her starring role in “Saving Mr. Banks,” Robert Redford was cast adrift from his sinking sailboat tale “All Is Lost,” and Paul Greengrass and Spike Jonze missed the cut for directing, respectively, the hijacking thriller “Captain Phillips” and the dystopian love story “Her.”

ma “Philomena” and “12 Years a Slave” also were financed outside the studio system.

Only three of the bestpicture selections, “Gravity,” “Nebraska” and “Captain Phillips,” were made and distributed by major studios.

“The independent financiers are critical,” said Rachel Winter, a producer of “The Dallas Buyers Club.” “They are bucking the cycle that we are in — and we are in such a crazily specific one right now.”

Her movie was underwritten by executives from a Texas fertilizer company after Hollywood studios turned the project down more than 120 times over the last 20 years.

The Academy Award nominations will help encourage others to take similar risks, noted Tracey Seaward, a producer of “Philomena” whose financing was pieced together from three European backers.

“It’s really a great boost and shows there’s an audience for serious storytelling,” she said.

Strong year Many film critics have called 2013 one of the best years for movies in memory. Happily for Hollywood, several of this year’s top contenders also are box-office hits — unlike past years, in which major contenders never escaped the art house.

“There’s a lot of campaigning going on and it can be very political. In our case, we suffered from little to no distribution. I don’t know what they were afraid of.”

TOM HANKS, CENTER, IS SHOWN IN A SCENE FROM “CAPTAIN PHILLIPS.” The film was nominated for an Academy Award for best picture on Thursday, but Hanks was shut out of the best actor category for “Phillips” and “Saving Mr. Banks.” Hanks’ double omission is proof that 2013 was indeed a golden year for film that academy members couldn’t include all those worthy of recognition.

The 86th Academy Awards will be held March 2.

— Robert Redford

The Coen brothers’ critically lauded folk music movie “Inside Llewyn Davis” earned just two technical nominations; last summer, it won the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.

“There’s incredible work being done by incredible filmmakers,” said Michael De Luca, a producer on “Captain Phillips.” “Not to over-inflate it, but it feels like it could be another renaissance” in movies.

Oscar voters had little trouble finding several movies to lavish with multiple nominations in top categories. The con man tale “American Hustle” and the space thriller “Gravity” tied with the most nominations with 10 apiece, as the slave drama “12 Years a Slave” collected nine. “Captain Phillips,” the AIDS story “Dallas Buyers Club” and the road movie “Nebraska” all had six nominations.

Tellingly, many of these nominated films were financed independently. As major studios focus on superheroes and sequels, it’s the independent financiers who bankroll the edgier, director-driven films whose merits are measured by reviews, not Happy Meals tie-ins.

Two of the best picture nominees — “American Hustle” and “Her” — were bankrolled by producer Megan Ellison, daughter of billionaire businessman Larry Ellison. She had more combined nominations with 17 than Paramount Pictures (13) and 20th Century Fox (11).

“I know we couldn’t make this movie without Megan,” said David O. Russell, who directed and co-wrote “American Hustle.” “And ‘Her’ couldn’t have gotten made without Megan.”

The best picture finalists “The Dallas Buyers Club,” the stock swindle film “The Wolf of Wall Street,” lost-child dra-

“Gravity” has grossed more than $256 million in domestic theaters, “American Hustle” has surpassed $104 million, “Captain Phillips” stands at $105 million and “The Wolf of Wall Street” just climbed past $81 million.

In lieu of Hanks and Redford, the lead actor nominees were Christian Bale for “American Hustle,” Bruce Dern for “Nebraska,” Leonardo DiCaprio for “The Wolf of Wall Street,” Chiwetel Ejiofor for “12 Years a Slave” and Matthew McConaughey for “Dallas Buyers Club.”

Redford, speaking to reporters at the opening of his Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, on Thursday, said his hopes for an Oscar nomination were hurt because “All Is Lost” had a limited release in theaters.

“There’s a lot of campaigning going on and it can be very political,” Redford said. “In our case, we suffered from little to no distribution.

I don’t know what they were afraid of.”

Instead of including Thompson, the lead actress selections were “American Hustle’s” Amy Adams, Sandra Bullock for “Gravity,” Cate Blanchett for “Blue Jasmine,” “Philomena” star Judi Dench and Meryl Streep for “August: Osage County.”

The directing nominees were Steve McQueen for “12 Years a Slave,” Russell for “American Hustle,” Martin Scorsese for “The Wolf of Wall Street,” Alfonso Cuaron for “Gravity” and Alexander Payne for “Nebraska.”

June Squibb, who plays the wife of Dern’s character in “Nebraska” and was nominated for supporting actress, shared the wide feeling that her film was part of a special slate of movies.

“I think it’s probably one of the richest years we’ve had in film,” Squibb said. “And we simply don’t have that kind of thing every year.

BEST-SELLERS

WHAT ARE YOU

Here are the best-sellers for the week that ended Jan. 12, compiled from nationwide data.

MEGAN SALLABEDRA PERUSES SELECTIONS Jan. 9 at Libros Schmibros book store in Los Angeles. The store has a Spanishlanguage book section, which the owner says has a big demand. Readers have been helped by a large selection of books in Spanish available as e-books.

Spanish-language books flourish thanks to e-readers

By Ken Bensinger Los Angeles Times

Molly Wetta, librarian, Lawrence “‘The Kingdom of Little Wounds’ (by Susann Cokal).’”

Mary Massaglia, unemployed, Lawrence “‘Small Sacrifices’ (by Ann Rule).”

Los Angeles — For decades, finding Spanishlanguage books in the U.S. was like tilting at windmills.

Booksellers stocked few titles in the language of Cervantes, and those they carried came at a hefty premium. A paperback copy of “Don Quijote” in the original Spanish could easily cost triple the price of a deluxe hard-bound translation in English — if it could be found at all.

Retailers blamed the expense of importing books printed in Spain and Latin America. And U.S. publishers lost faith in the market after botched attempts to translate English-language best-sellers produced error-ridden Spanish versions that sold poorly.

The upshot was that even in heavily Latino cities such as Los Angeles, where Spanish-language television and radio command huge audiences, readers of libros en espanol found little more than bilingual dictionaries and religious tracts buried in

the backs of bookstores.

“There was a tremendous appetite for Spanish-language books that wasn’t being met,” said David Kipen, who runs Libros Schmibros, a used-book store in Boyle Heights with a large Latino clientele. “We might have 1,000 books in Spanish, but we’re always ravenous for more.”

But lately, thanks in big part to the Internet, the nation’s 38 million Spanish speakers have been finding a lot more to read. The explosion of portable reading devices such as Amazon’s Kindle and Barnes & Noble’s Nook has for the first time allowed publishers of Spanish-language content to market electronic books to U.S. buyers — often at a fraction of the cost of printed versions.

It’s the latest twist on the disruptive power of digital publishing. But in contrast to printed books in English, which have lost sales to cheaper electronic versions, e-books in Spanish are delivering content where little existed before.

In the last two years, the number of Spanish-

language titles available in the U.S. has tripled at some online booksellers. Imported hardcovers such as Colombian author Alvaro Mutis’ “Maqroll” trilogy that once retailed for more than $100 can now be had online for less than $15. And entire genres of Latin American literature — think contemporary Ecuadorean poetry — that were all but impossible to acquire at any price are now a few mouse clicks away.

Spanish-language book sales are still small compared with those in English, accounting for less than 5 percent of the nation’s $7.1 billion in annual sales, according to some estimates. But their rapid growth has fueled greater investment in the industry and challenged some long-held notions in the process.

“There has been a real shift,” said Ed Nawotka, editor in chief of online industry magazine Publishing Perspectives. “I see confidence in the market that has never been there before.”

Latinos are adopting tablet computers and e-

readers far faster than the U.S. population as a whole, according to a recent study by the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project. In 2011, about 1 in 20 Hispanics owned such a device, the group found; in 2012, the number had jumped to nearly 1 in 5.

“That study gave a lot of people belief that this market could work,” said Patricia Arancibia, an expert on the Spanish-language book market who founded Barnes & Noble’s Nook Books en Espanol site, the first of its kind in the United States.

Before 2010, she said, only about 10,000 Spanish-language print titles were in stock at online booksellers in the U.S. out of a total of about 650,000 Spanish titles worldwide.

Today, a search of Barnes & Noble’s website turns up nearly 65,000 Nook books available in Spanish. And Amazon’s Spanish-language page — EBooks Kindle en Espanol — now boasts more than 70,000 titles. That’s more than double the number offered when the site debuted in April 2012.

BOOK REVIEW

Robert Gates still at war in snarky ‘Duty’

By Bob Drogin Los Angeles Times

During 4 1/2 years as secretary of Defense under presidents George W. Bush and Obama, Robert M. Gates was widely lauded as a shrewd national security mandarin who had seen it all, done it all and most important, could stay above it all in the partisan wars of Washington.

So the snarky putdowns and petulant asides in his impassioned, if somewhat contradictory, memoir, “Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War,” come as something of a surprise.

Behind his mask of calm civility, Gates nursed grudges, tallied up slights and jotted Brad Mayhew, down the caustic ripostes engineer, that he never delivered Lawrence “I’m listening to ‘Collapse: in public. The carping How Societies Choose to and zingers already have generated headlines. No Fail or Succeed’ crime there, but since he (by Jared Diamond).” also bemoans the backbiting and bickering in politics, he lowers his pedestal considerably to do so.

Gates is the embodiment of a Washington trope: the independent Dave Gabrielli, mechanical engineer, Lawrence “‘You Can Farm’ (by Joel Salatin).”

“Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary of War,” by ex-Defense Secretary Robert Gates

outsider as consummate insider. He has worked for eight presidents since Lyndon Johnson while proclaiming his loathing for it all. His most recent book covers a particularly turbulent period, from December 2006 to June 2011, when the Pentagon was fighting — and in danger of losing — the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Running two major wars and the world’s biggest military was tough enough. Doing it in the last two years of Bush’s second term, and the first two years of Obama’s first, could cause whiplash. So can Gates’ book, which ranges from generous and gracious to churlish and self-righteous, sometimes on the same page. But it is compelling.

Gates is a foreign poli-

cy realist, so he views the world through relatively nonideological eyes. Put another way, he adjusts course and counsel as the winds dictate. It doesn’t make his observations of White House decisionmaking, and his indictment of Washington’s dysfunction, any less trenchant.

Bush and his aides squandered the initial military victories in both wars by mistakes and short-sighted policies, he admits.

Yet he has nothing but praise for Bush, especially because he ordered a “surge” of 20,000 additional troops into Iraq in 2007 to avert a “potentially catastrophic” military defeat that his own administration had begot.

Gates admired Bush as “a man of character, a man of convictions, and a man of action.”

Obama gets far harsher treatment. He is “blindsided” and “irked” when Obama announces plans to repeal the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell law and let gays serve openly in the military, a process Gates supports but still tries to slowroll. He is “disgusted” by

the distrust that grows between senior military leaders and Obama, but he blames micromanaging

by White House aides, not blunders by his own commanders. He questions whether Obama is fully committed to his strategy of sending more troops to Afghanistan, even though Obama rejected the advice of all his political advisors and sent 30,000 extra troops (and kept them there twice as long as Bush did in Iraq).

“Obama did the right things on national security, but everything came across as politically motivated,” he gripes.

Gates details his role at length in budget battles, personnel spats and inter-agency turf wars.

Most of this is familiar ground. But it does yield some amusing details, as when Gates recounts his outrage at Obama closing an Oval Office meeting by warning “those of you writing your memoirs” that he had not made a decision. “I was offended by his suspicion that any of us would ever write about such sensitive matters,” Gates huffs ... in his memoir.

BRIEFLY Study: E-books, print both popular New York — A new survey from the Pew Research Center reports more adults than ever own an e-reading device, but print books are doing just fine.

Based on interviews conducted earlier this month, the study released Thursday shows 50 percent of respondents saying they have a tablet or stand-alone device such as Amazon.com’s Kindle.

That’s up from 43 percent in September.

The survey says nearly 3 out of 10 adults read an e-book over the past year, compared to 23 percent who had done so when asked in 2012. Only around 4 percent read e-books exclusively.

Sales for e-books are growing, but have leveled off over the past couple of years. They’re believed to comprise 25 to 30 percent of the general trade market, with commercial fiction especially popular for e-books.
