Questions pile up ahead of Rock Chalk audit By Chad Lawhorn Twitter: @clawhorn_ljw

More questions have emerged about the Rock Chalk Park sports complex, following a Journal-World review of financial documents related to the project. The Journal-World reviewed a set of documents and canceled checks delivered to the city by the Kansas University Endowment Association earlier this month. Some of the documents appear to contradict statements

Missing documents, signature worries, staking confusion among issues made by KU Endowment going through the city’s officials, who largely standard bid process. have been responsible for Mayor Mike Amyx ensuring that expenses said he is hopeful a reand receipts reconcile on cent audit ordered by nearly $12 million worth the city will provide anof infrastructure that a swers to such questions.

The city is not responsible for paying for any of that work.

LINDA KLINKER, SHOWN AT THE 12TH AND HASKELL RECYCLING CENTER, is known as the “Can Lady” for her role as one of the founders of the Lawrence-based nonprofit Cans for the Community. The group recently passed the $150,000 mark in charitable donations from recycling aluminum cans. “I’ve embarrassed all of my family at this point,” Klinker says. But they may overlook all the embarrassments now because Klinker these days has another title: magician. As the leader of Cans for the Community, she’s pulled off quite a trick since the organization was founded in 2005. She and a group of about a dozen volunteers have taken the simple idea — col-

lect cans, sell them and give the money to local nonprofits — and turned it into an organization that just recently topped the $150,000 mark in donations given to local charities. They estimate they’ve collected 10 million aluminum cans in the process. And you thought that trick you do with an aluminum can on your

Fresh off its sweeping electoral wins in the 2014 campaign, the Kansas Republican Party turned its focus this weekend to 2016, when U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran will be at the top of the state ticket. Moran’s reception at the party’s annual state convention in Topeka on Saturday drew one of the What largest crowds party officials Republicans do could remember, with their majority bolstered by the fact that the Kan- has a determining sas University vs. effect upon Kansas State Uni- elections in versity basketball game was also be- Kansas in 2016.” ing projected on a big-screen TV behind the stage. — U.S But the crowd Sen. grew even more Jerry excited at halftime, Moran, when Moran took R-Kansas the stage, all but kicking off his 2016 re-election campaign. Joining him on stage was Sen. Joni Ernst, the freshman Republican from Iowa who gave the GOP response to President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address Jan. 20. Ernst gave Moran, who headed the National Republican Senatorial Committee last year, credit for her winning a seat formerly held by Democrat Tom Harkin, and for Republicans winning back a majority in the U.S. Senate last year. “He served in such a difficult position in such a tough, tough time,” Ernst said. “But because of Jerry Moran and all the assistance he was able to give, in my race in particular, I am now serving in the United States Senate.” The 2014 campaign proved especially tough in Moran’s own back yard, where his colleague, Sen. Pat Roberts, barely survived a tea party primary challenge, and then trailed in many of the polls leading up to Election Day against independent candidate Greg Orman. A surge of nearly $17 million in independent expenditures in the final weeks of the

The city has hired an independent auditing firm to review accounting records of the project. The firm, Tennessee-based McDonald & Associates, is expected to provide a report to the City Commission by Feb. 26, although the commission has said it would extend the deadline if auditors need additional time to answer all the questions.

Fritzel did not respond to a request for an interview for this article. Here’s a look at questions created by the most recent documents on the project:

She died January 31, 2015. infrastructure construction. But when KU Endowment turned over documents to the city, it could not produce canceled checks showing that DFC Company had received those payments. In a follow-up letter to city officials, Monte Soukup, a senior vice president for KU Endowment, acknowledged that checks had not been written to DFC Company of Lawrence for those amounts. He said that was because DFC Company and Bliss Sports II, although separate companies, are both Fritzelrelated entities. In a written response to the JournalWorld, Soukup said it is “common for related companies not to issue checks to each other but rather to make inter-company transfers by logging receivables and payables on their books.” The documents signed by the official with DFC Company, however, do not make any mention of the payment simply being a receivable that was added to the company’s books. The two documents simply state “the undersigned subcontractor/vendor/ consultant acknowledges that it has received a total of $959,015.20 from Bliss Sports II, LLC ...” Another document makes the same statement about the remaining $444,701.13. Attempts to reach Soukup for a follow-up question about the matter were unsuccessful.

campaign, mainly from groups supporting Roberts or opposing Orman, carried him over the finish line. Some analysts said that final push helped save Gov. Sam Brownback, who also was trailing in the polls leading up to Election Day. Moran acknowledged that’s not likely to happen again in 2016, but said he believes the state party is still in

good shape heading into the next election cycle. “I think it’s always important how we govern, what happens in Washington, D.C.,” he said. “And what Republicans do with their majority has a determining effect upon elections in Kansas in 2016. But Kansas is historically a Republican state. You never take anything for granted, but Kansans are likely to support a Republican in the United States Senate and other offices.” — Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222.

Missing invoice Soukup has acknowledged that there is an invoice from Alpha Omega Geotech for work it did related to inspection services at the site. Alpha Omega provided services to both the city-funded infrastructure project and the privately funded stadium facilities. Alpha Omega provided one invoice for both projects. After the fact, Alpha Omega was asked to separate out its charges based on the work it did for the infrastructure project and the stadium project. It provided a letter saying its work on the infrastructure project totaled $84,000. But the city was never provided a copy of the original invoice, which could help city accountants determine whether the billings were accurately allocated to the appropriate projects. Soukup wrote that KU Endowment — which has managed the project through its entity called RCP, LLC — felt there was not a need to see the actual invoice. “RCP felt that written statements on company letterhead from these professionals was sufficient documentation (to imply something else is accusing these professionals of submitting false information without any reason to believe so),” Soukup wrote. The city also does not have any canceled checks showing payment to Alpha Omega. In general, Soukup wrote that he was pleased with how the Rock Chalk Park project had proceeded. “The great thing about this project is that the city, the university (and) a private developer were able to work together successfully to create what is arguably the premier youth sports venue in the region which will have a positive economic impact on the community for years to come,” Soukup wrote. “Ultimately, the city audit will help determine if the city received a good value for its investment.” Published daily by The World Company at Sixth and New Hampshire streets, Lawrence, KS 66044-0122.

from entities other than Bliss Sports II were written prior to the city signing the development agreement with Bliss Sports II in July 2013. Soukup noted until that development agreement was signed there was no guarantee that the city was going to participate in the project. But a Bliss Sports II checking account did exist prior to the development agreement being signed, other documents provided to the city show. Soukup also acknowledged that on four occasions after the development agreement was signed, entities other than Bliss Sports II issued checks for infrastructure work. Soukup offered no explanation for why that was the case.

Topeka (ap) — The fatal shooting of three people last year outside a Jewish community center and retirement complex has revived debate for tougher hate crime laws in Kansas. A bill filed to the Legislature this session would double the maximum sentence for crimes motivated by the race, religion, sexual orientation, or national origin of the victim. Sen. David Haley, a Democrat from Kansas City who sponsored the legislation, said the shootings reinforce the need for such a change. “This was offered in 2002 and 2003, and we still have these examples like the Jewish communi- LEGISLATURE ty center where we aren’t punishing adequately people who walk around with their minds set on mayhem due only to prejudice,” Haley said. Ben Scott, vice president of the Kansas branch of the NAACP, said the bill is important because the judicial system underestimates the effects of hate crimes on minorities. “Hate crimes are a very serious issue because there’s no way that you can stand in my shoes and feel what I feel,” Scott said. But critics argue that existing statutes forbid any activity considered to be a hate crime and stiffer penalties would not deter criminals acting out of irrational hatred. Republican Sen. Greg Smith of Overland Park also worried the measure would crowd Kansas’ prisons, which are expected to be over capacity by the end of the year. Sen. Forrest Knox, a Republican from Altoona on the Senate Corrections and Juvenile Justice Committee, said that he doesn’t think laws should punish people differently based on their motivations. “I don’t like trying to get inside someone’s head, so I don’t really support the ‘hate crimes’ point of view. I’m just saying for whatever reason you did a terrible thing, you need to pay the price,” Knox said.

The city started giving multiple grants to several of the nonprofits. its curbside recycling

Besides the money, there is another aspect the nonprofits appreciate. There’s no paperwork. Nonprofits don’t have to fill out any “grant application.” Instead, board members for Cans for the Community come to the monthly meeting with their nominations for worthy organizations, and “whoever gets the most votes wins that month,” Klinker says. Cans for the Community also doesn’t put any requirements on how the groups spend the money. Klinker remembers giving a $1,000 grant to the Social Service League, and one of its leaders asked whether they could use the money to pay the store’s heating bill. “I told her ‘of course,’ and she almost cried,” Klinker says. “She said nobody every gave them money for those type of needs.” The group hopes to keep doing so in the future. “We’re trying to remind people that this is about more than just cans,” Klinker says. “We totally support curbside recycling. It is easy and it is great. We just want people to set their cans aside and bring them to us.” But let’s be honest, taking your aluminum cans to one of the Cans for the Community dropoff locations isn’t going to be as convenient as simply throwing them in the big blue recycling cart that the city has given every household “But if you go to the grocery store, we have a dropoff box at almost every grocery store in town,” Klinker says. “So it is not that hard.” And it also is a great opportunity to practice a little magic. You can turn cans into dollars that help those in need. The best news is that’s magic we can all do. And trust me, it feels a lot better than that trick with your forehead.

Existing public on-street parking on the south side of 11th Street, the east side of Mississippi Street and the west side of Indiana Street will not be available during construction. The project is

expected to last through July 2016. l A project is underway to construct a new diamond interchange at Kansas Highway 10 and Bob Billings Parkway/15th Street. Work will take place during daylight hours, Monday through Friday. At this time, there are minimal motorist impacts, but the work has caused a need to detour the South Lawrence Trafficway trail between Sixth Street and Bob Billings Parkway.

Closed again The closed process Gov. Brownback is using to fill vacancies on the Kansas Court of Appeals should serve as a warning to Kansans.

ov. Sam Brownback has made his second appointment to the Kansas Court of Appeals under a new law that eliminated the role of the Supreme Court Nomination Commission in the selection process. The new process, under which the governor nominates a judge who then must be confirmed by the Kansas Senate, was touted as a more democratic and open way to appoint judges. However, at least the way it is being used by this governor, the process seems anything but open. The governor invited Kansans to nominate themselves or others for the Court of Appeals position but revealed no information about who was nominated, how many names he received or what their qualifications were. He also failed to respond — at least before announcing his choice on Thursday — to an open records request from the Associated Press seeking applications, letters or emails from people making nominations for the Court of Appeals vacancy. The process was completely closed. Brownback’s selection of Kathryn Gardner of Topeka may have been a stellar choice, but it’s difficult for Kansans to assess that choice without having any information on the other nominees. It at least gives the appearance that the governor has something to hide. In announcing the nomination, Brownback noted Gardner’s experience as a law clerk for U.S. District Judge Sam Crow and as an assistant Kansas attorney general. He also noted that she has been a finalist in statewide cowboy poetry contests three times in the past four years. Hopefully, he was joking when he said the poetry connection “sealed the deal for me.” Interestingly, Gardner shares some educational credentials with Supreme Court Justice Caleb Stegall, whose spot she is filling on the Court of Appeals. Both received their law degrees from Kansas University and both graduated from Geneva College, which indicates on its website that it is a “four-year comprehensive Christian college” in Beaver Falls, Pa., with a current undergraduate enrollment of 1,335 traditional students. The Kansas Senate now will have an opportunity to review Gardner’s credentials as part of the confirmation process, but the Senate’s large Republican majority almost certainly will agree with Brownback’s choice. If the governor had his way, the same system would be used to appoint Kansas Supreme Court justices, but that would require both the Legislature and the voters of Kansas to approve a constitutional amendment. When advocates try to sell that amendment as a more democratic and open way to select state judges, Kansans should remember the closed process Brownback has instituted for Court of Appeals appointments.

Deflategate part of wretched excess Washington — Beer, Benjamin Franklin supposedly said but almost certainly didn’t, is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Without cannonballing into deep theological waters, perhaps Deflategate proves the same thing. This scrumptious NFL pratfall — think of someone insufferably self-important stepping on a banana peel; hello, Donald Trump — has come to lighten the mood of America’s annual Wretched Excess Season. It consists of the days — this year, 12 of them — between the State of the Union address and the final merciful tick of the clock of the Super Bowl. The State of the Union has become, under presi-

“

But let us not allow fallen humanity’s sins to spoil today’s fun.” dents of both parties, a political pep rally degrading to everyone. The judiciary and uniformed military should never attend. And Congress, by hosting a spectacle so monarchical in structure (which is why Thomas Jefferson sent his thoughts to Congress in writing) deepens the diminishment of the legislative branch as a mostly reactive servant of an overbearing executive. Catching the State of the Union’s rising wave of choreographed spontaneity and synthetic earnestness, the nation then surfs into the long run-up to the Super Bowl. This storm before the storm delivers hurricane-force gusts of anticipatory analysis forecasting the minute nuances of enormous people throw-

ing their weight around. The chatter culminates in 60 minutes of actual football — men risking concussions and other crippling injuries for our amusement. And for selling beer (see above) and other stuff. Anyway, this year the tedium of Wretched Excess Season has been relieved by Deflategate, itself a permutation of wretched excess. Unless you have allowed yourself to be distracted by the dismemberment of Ukraine, Islamic State beheadings and counting the U.S. military personnel in Iraq that are not wearing real boots that are actually on the ground, you know this: When the New England Patriots won a Super Bowl berth by defeating the Indianapolis Colts 45-7, 11 footballs in the Patriots’ custody, and for the team’s use on offense, were filled with less air than NFL rules require, making them easier to pass and catch. Perhaps the 11 balls spontaneously lost exactly the same amount of air in the 2 hours or so between when the officials checked

them and kickoff. Religions have been founded on less startling occurrences, but judge not lest ye be judged to be judgmental. The Patriots’ head coach, Bill Belichick, a detail-obsessed martinet of Prussian severity but without even a Junker’s flair for jollity, says he is stumped. Perhaps a rogue equipment manager decided on his own to put deflated balls into the famously and exquisitely sensitive hands of the Patriots’ $27 million quarterback, Tom Brady, who never noticed. There has not been such an unmysterious mystery since an 18-anda-half-minute gap occurred in President Nixon’s White House tapes of a conversation between Nixon and his chief of staff in the Oval Office three days after the Watergate break-in. Concerning cheating, let the sport that is without sin cast the first scuffed baseball. Baseball players have tampered with themselves (e.g., performanceenhancing drugs) and their equipment (e.g., corked bats). Teams with creative

Out of jail, but not yet free Marissa Alexander got out of jail last week, but she is not free. At best, she enjoys only a species of freedom, a defective freedom that imperfectly resembles the real thing. After a cumulative total of three years behind bars, she will now spend two years on house arrest, monitored by a GPS ankle bracelet. The monitoring, for which she must pay $105 a week, was agreed to by a judge over the objection of prosecutors who wanted her to do two more years in jail. All this, for firing a gun into the air. Alexander, a 34-year-old Jacksonville, Fla., woman, has endured a nightmarish odyssey through the Florida injustice system ever since the day in August of 2010 that she got into a fight with her husband, Rico Gray. She said Gray, whom she and other women describe as a serial woman beater, started strangling her when he found text messages from her first husband on her phone. Alexander managed to escape to her garage, intending to flee in her truck. Realizing she had left her keys in the house, she said, she armed herself with a gun and went back inside. When her husband came at her again, she fired a warning shot and he fled. In his deposition, Gray largely corroborated her story. “I told her if she ever cheated on me, I would kill her,” he said. Had she not had the gun, he added, he would have “probably hit her. I got five baby mamas and I put my hands on every last one of them, except for one.” But when Alexander’s at torney filed for dismissal under Florida’s Stand Your

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

How is it, they want to know, that George Zimmerman was only standing his ground when he stalked and killed an unarmed black boy, but Marissa Alexander committed aggravated assault when she shot a wall?”

Ground statute, this sterling example of humanity changed his story. In the new version, he never threatened to kill Alexander and “begged and pleaded” for his life when she produced the gun. When CNN asked for an interview about all this, Gray agreed. Then declined. Then asked for money. CNN passed. Prosecutors offered Alexander a plea bargain — three years against a possible 20 for aggravated assault. Alexander declined, reasoning that surely no jury would convict her under these circumstances. They convicted her in 12 minutes. Awarded a new trial because of a procedural error, she was again offered a deal, except that this time, the stakes were higher: a possible 60-year prison sentence. Again, this is for shooting into the air — in Florida, yet, a gun-happy state where you can legally erect a shooting

range in your own backyard and blaze away. Wisely, Alexander took the deal. Some observers see a racial double-standard in all of this. How is it, they want to know, that George Zimmerman was only standing his ground when he stalked and killed an unarmed black boy, but Marissa Alexander committed aggravated assault when she shot a wall? Some see a gender-based unfairness, a stony lack of compassion for women facing domestic violence. And some see a fresh example of how mandatory sentencing guidelines imposed by politicians wanting to seem “tough on crime” have instead made our courts tough on common sense. Note that the judge who first sentenced Alexander had no leeway under the law. Even he said his 20-year sentence “may be legal, but it is wrong.” So what we have here, then, is a convergence of multiple unfairnesses that leaves Alexander, a mother of three who had never been in trouble before, a convicted felon, a designation that will deprive her of the right to vote and shadow her throughout her life from now forward. That is both travesty and tragedy. This is a case that cries out for gubernatorial clemency or presidential pardon. It ought to make decent people sick — sick enough to demand reform. Because, it’s all well and good Marissa Alexander is finally home, but make no mistake. What she has now is only a kind of freedom. And no kind of justice at all. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

groundskeepers have given an outward tilt to infield foul lines when a team adept at bunting comes to town. And on at least one occasion a gifted base stealer has reached first base only to find himself standing in a muddy swamp on an otherwise dry infield. But let us not allow fallen humanity’s sins to spoil today’s fun. On the secondhighest calorie-consumption day of every year (second to Thanksgiving), we celebrate the end of Wretched Excess Season by gathering around our televisions, as around a continental campfire. In this communal experience we say: Take the day off, better angels of our nature, because nothing says America like football played indoors in air conditioning on grass in the desert. Tomorrow, we will still not be sure who or what blew up the USS Maine in Havana harbor on Feb. 15, 1898. But it would be good to know the whereabouts of the Patriots’ equipment manager that day. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 1, 1915: years “The telephone ago and telegraph IN 1915 companies are experiencing considerable trouble with the sleet on the wires. For the past few days the wires have been so heavy that some of them were broken with the weight. The sleet on the wires makes connections on the lines impossible.” “‘Hun’ Woods was again taken by the police yesterday on a charge of drunkenness. He has been a frequent visitor at the police station. He pleaded guilty and was fined $6.50. Judge Albach has promised Wood that his fine would be doubled each time he is brought in on a charge of drunkenness. Charles Brown was also arrested on a charge of drunkenness Saturday night. Brown was very anxious to go home and take care of his stock. He promised that he would appear at the court Monday morning for trial and the police permitted him to go. He was picked up about an hour later in the bottoms in a drunken condition.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD PERRY ELLIS, TOP RIGHT, FIGHTS FOR A REBOUND with Kansas State forward Nino Williams during the second half of the Jayhawks’ 68-57 victory on Saturday in Allen Fieldhouse.

Kansan Ellis keys KU win By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kelly Oubre Jr. was sure the one native Kansan in Kansas University’s starting lineup would come to play with great intensity on Saturday afternoon in Allen Fieldhouse. “We had a feeling it would be his night on the points and on the boards because it was personal for him going against one of his in-state rivals in Nino (Williams, former Leavenworth High player),” freshman guard Oubre said after

Selden displays can-’do attitude

Kansan Perry Ellis scored a team-leading 16 points and grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds in the Jayhawks’ 6857 victory over rival Kansas State. “We expected a big night out of him, and that’s what we got. He had his first double-double of the season. He played like Perry does,” Ou- KANSAS GUARD WAYNE SELDEN JR. (1) PULLS UP for a three-pointer against KSU’s Justin Edwards. bre added.

When they caught the first glimpse of Wayne Selden’s fresh haircut, most of the customary 16,300 spectators who jammed into Allen Fieldhouse on Saturday probably figured the Kansas University sophomore shooting guard was trying to change his luck by lopping off about 80 percent of his hair. Not the case. The motivation for tightening up his look means more to Selden than breaking a shooting slump. “My mom’s in town, and I felt like I needed to switch

Super Bowl to cap tumultuous NFL season Phoenix (ap) — Domestic violence. Questionable discipline. Player safety. Confusing officiating. Deflated footballs. The disturbing headlines that began last February never slowed down for the NFL this season. The problems — most of them made

worse by the ineffectual handling — mushroomed into an imperfect storm that hurt the league’s credibility and turned the lead-up to today’s Super Bowl into a time for damage control, not celebration. “It never ceases,” said Orin Starn, a Duke profes-

sor who studies sports in society. “It was one crisis and PR challenge after another, and I didn’t envy Roger Goodell at all.” At the commissioner’s contentious news conference Friday — Goodell fielded one question about whether he thought he

should be fired and another about taking a pay cut — he was hit with a barrage of questions that spoke to the wide range of problems that punctured the league’s integrity, though not its popularity. “On the one hand, you’ve got a league that’s never

the hardcore football fans to become household issues.” It’s a tribute to America’s obsession with football that what feels like a trivial tale about flatter-than-normal footballs hasn’t abated as the week’s top story, even with a looming matchup between New England and Seattle. The Patriots were accused of providing under-inflated footballs for their AFC championship win, and an investigation will be concluded after the title game. That was the lead story on all three major-network news broadcasts one evening. Another story that won’t end: Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch’s refusal to play nice with the media and the NFL’s uncertainty about how, or whether, to enforce rules that compel players to do interviews. “I did 35 radio interviews

Seau, KC’s Shields named to Hall of Fame Phoenix (ap) — One by one, the newest members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame stepped onto the stage as their names were called. When the eighth man elected Saturday, the late Junior Seau, was announced, his two sons stood with the group. “I wish,” 25-year-old Tyler Seau said later, “he was here in person with us.” A field-covering, hard-hitting linebacker, the charismatic Seau, who committed suicide at age 43 in 2012, was the only first-time eligible candidate in the Hall’s class this week,” Steinberg said. “That’s all anyone wanted to talk about.” But it’s issues such as Deflategate, the confusing rules and the competence of the NFL’s officials that could damage the league most.

thing else is happening, that there may be cheating or unfair enforcement, is an existential threat to the NFL,” he said. The domestic violence crisis that exploded when Ray Rice — the former Baltimore Ravens running back — punched his fiancée and Adrian Peterson — the Minnesota Vikings star — whipped his son with a tree branch has been treated mostly in general terms this week. Goodell used the words “domestic violence” only once during his nearly 50-minute news conference, instead referring to it more than once as part of a set of “complex issues.” Domestic violence accusations against players garnered as much attention for the NFL’s handling of them — most notably, Rice’s two-game suspension that was made indefinite when video of the punch surfaced, then overturned by an arbitrator — as the charges themselves.

FSHS girls third in Classic By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After a two-point loss on Friday night, Free State High’s girls basketball players refused to fall short again. The Firebirds committed 17 more turnovers than Wichita Heights on Saturday afternoon and shot just 39 percent from the field. But they still found a way to win, holding off the Falcons for a 48-44 victory to take third place in the Firebird Winter Classic at FSHS. Free State led by eight points with under three minutes left after sophomore guard Jaycie Bishop drained two free throws. But the Falcons responded with an 8-1 run, pulling to 45-44 with 25.9 seconds remaining, following two made free throws from sophomore Jaelynn McLaurian. FSHS senior forward Sarah Coversup responded by going 1-for2 at the free-throw line.

Lawrence High girls fall short By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

With more than six minutes left in the fourth quarter, Lawrence High’s girls basketball team took a one-point lead after a three-pointer by sophomore guard Olivia Lemus on Saturday morning. But Topeka Highland Park quickly responded with a layup, and the Lions couldn’t hit enough shots to recover in a 61-48 loss in the fifth-place game of the Firebird Winter Classic at Free State High. “We feel like that’s one we let get away,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said. “We feel like that’s one that we should have won, not to take anything away from Highland Park. … We missed so many shots right at the basket. We didn’t finish it very well. We weren’t hitting our free throws.” Neither team could establish much offensive rhythm in a game with 50 fouls and 63 combined free throws. The Lions made just one of their final 12 shots following the three-pointer by Lemus. LHS junior Alexis Boyd, who scored a team-high 15 points,

One possession later, Boyd kept the Lions (210) within one point after making one of two free throws, but the Scots (5-8) went on a 13-1 run for the remainder of the game. “I think we got a little bit tight down the stretch,” Dickson said. “I think instead of people just shooting with confidence, we were tentative a little bit and afraid to miss. That led some of upperclassmen to try to do maybe a little more than they needed to do. We were kind of pressing a little too much.”

The Lions led by as much as 11 points in the first half, with scoring inside by Boyd and senior forward Matia Finley, and threes from Lemus and sophomore guard Skylar Drum. Senior point guard Marissa Pope added six points and two assists in the first two quarters. However, the Scots finished the first half on a 15-4 run, then scored the first nine points of the second half, mostly through free throws and offensive rebounds off of missed free throws. “It’s little things that have plagued us all season long,” Dickson said. “It snowballed on us

again, and we weren’t able to get the job done. Obviously, we’re extremely disappointed. I thought we played hard. I thought we came with a lot of good energy, and that’s been something at times that’s been an issue for us.” The Lions nearly tied the game late in the third quarter with five points from Drum and four points from Boyd in a four-minute stretch, before finally breaking through in the fourth quarter. The Lions will welcome Barstow (Mo.) for a game at 7 p.m. Monday at LHS.

Free State boys topple Lansing By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Kansas City, Mo. — Free State High’s boys basketball team received the honor of participating in the inaugural Best of the Midwest Showcase Saturday at Municipal Auditorium, and the Firebirds did not disappoint, defeating Lansing, 60-46. FSHS hit its first four shots to begin on a 10-3 run and started the second quarter on a 9-2 spurt to create a doubledigit cushion the rest of the way against the defending Class 5A state champs. “We saw shots go in right off the bat, and that’s a contagious thing,” Free State coach Chuck Law said. “When shots aren’t going in, it adds pressure to everybody who gets in the game. When shots go in ahead of you, that breeds confidence.” Justin Narcomey and Jack Raney each knocked down three-pointers in the first two minutes,

Thomsen came off the bench to nail four of his five treys in the second quarter and finished with 15 points. “He can do that, and we know he’s capable of that,” Law said. “He’s shown it in practice, especially of late.” When Thomsen and

the Firebirds weren’t launching from long distance, Hunter Gudde was getting to the hole for traditional three-point plays. Gudde led all scorers with 22 points, shooting 8-for-12 from the field and 6-for-8 from the charity stripe. The FSHS junior converted two and-one plays but also was able to get plenty of uncontested looks close to the basket.

Gudde was on the other end of four of Weston Hack’s team-high five assists, three of which were on inbound plays. “I wish I could take credit for that stuff, but that was mostly instinctive stuff by them,” Law said. While Hack struggled from the field, the senior forward filled the stat sheet with six rebounds and three steals to go with eight points. The Firebirds will be back in action at 7 p.m. Friday at Shawnee Mission Northwest.

KU swimmers drop dual J-W Staff Reports

Arkansas defeated Kansas, 194-105, in a women’s dual swimming and diving meet Saturday at Robinson Natatorium. Chelsie Miller claimed KU’s lone first-place finish, in the 200-yard individual medley. “Some meets you’re the hammer, other meets you’re the nail,” KU coach Clark Campbell said. “Today we were the nail, but we competed really well. In dual meets, the

final score really doesn’t matter — it’s all about the process and competing. Our girls did that. We may have lost a few touches, and that can add up, but we’re still really pleased with where we are right now. When we race teams like Arkansas, it gets our kids excited and ready to go fast. We want to keep competing and pushing ourselves. These are great meets to help us gauge where we are now and help prepare us later on for Big 12s.”

Wildcats dismayed by lack of ‘fight’ By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Following Saturday’s 68-57 loss to Kansas University in Allen Fieldhouse, Kansas State basketball coach Bruce Weber made it clear he knew the formula for competing with the Jayhawks on their home floor. “If you’re gonna win here, you’ve gotta guard them and fight them, and I’m not saying with fists,” Weber said after a game in which his Wildcats did very little of either. Landing a couple of punches might not have hurt the Wildcats, who fell to 12-10 overall and 5-4 in Big 12 play and took plenty of abuse from the Jayhawks (18-3, 7-1), par-

ticularly during the opening eight minutes, during which KU built a 20-5 lead. After the game, Weber talked about his disappointment with the way his team competed. And during the timeout that followed his team falling into that 15-point hole, the K-State coach demonstrated what he wanted to see, first by screaming at forward Nino Williams and then by turning to grab a nearby clipboard and slamming it to the ground in the KSU huddle. Asked about the outburst, Weber was calm but blunt. “(I was) just disappointed,” he said. “We talked about having some pride and guarding and

41 percent from the floor and K-State shooting just 17 percent. The Wildcats made just six first-half field goals, two of which were set up by assists. The Wildcats im-

proved in the second half, when they shot 56 percent from the floor and used 13 points from Marcus Foster and 12 more from Thomas Gipson to keep KU from making the final score an embarrassment. The Wildcats routinely kept the deficit around 11 or 12 points throughout the second half, but every time they were there, the Jayhawks pushed it back to 15 or 16 instead of allowing the ’Cats to cut it to single digits. Weber opened his postgame meeting with the media by praising the job KU coach Bill Self has done and the play of junior forward Perry Ellis. “He’s just rock-solid,” Weber said of Ellis. “Even last year he was. But because (he’s) a no-frills

(player), people forget about him.” Ellis led the Jayhawks with 16 points and 12 rebounds and reached double digits in both categories by halftime. According to Weber, it was numbers and players like those that beat K-State, not the mystique of the building or anything like that. “They do it to everybody,” Weber said of the early burst that paced KU to victory. “You have to give credit to coach Self and what he’s done with this group. To be (7-1) at the turn in the best league in the country, it’s a mixture of some veterans and Frank Mason’s involvement and Kelly (Oubre) and making some strides.”

“Yes, it’s pretty personal,” Ellis said of his wanting to play well against KState (12-10, 5-4), a team his Jayhawks (18-3, 7-1) have defeated in five of six career meetings. “Just being from Kansas ... two Kansas schools playing, fans of both schools picking sides. I know Nino (four points, two boards, 22 minutes) real well. It’s a fun game. I just try to get after it,” Ellis added. Ellis had his doubledouble after one half. His 13 points and 10 boards in 16 minutes helped KU grab a 33-17 halftime lead. “Perry delivered early,” KU coach Bill Self said. “I think he’s definitely on an uptick.” “I was just trying to go out and attack. We’ve been working on rebounding,” Ellis said after KU won the board battle, 42-37. “I just tried to get as many rebounds as possible and go from there.” Ellis scored eight points as KU raced to a 20-5 lead over a cold-shooting KSU team, which hit one of its first 12 shots. At halftime, K-State was 6-of-35 for 17.1 percent. It tied for the fourthworst shooting percentage in a half in K-State history, worst since 16.1 percent against Michigan State in 1996. “We were trying to get to Foster,” Ellis said said of Marcus Foster, who

We were trying to get a lot of traps, help on defense. We did a great job of that the first half.” Of the Wildcats’ 17-percent shooting, Self said: “I thought we played pretty good defense the first half. We challenged everything. If somebody is going to shoot 17 percent against you ... we’ve actually experienced that this year (19.6 percent for the game against Kentucky). I understand. You’d think we could take advantage of it more than we did. We didn’t take advantage of them shooting a low percentage. The second half they shot 56 percent (33.3 for game to KU’s 44.8). We didn’t guard them near as well the second half.”

KSU was never able to get the deficit below 10 points the second half, though the Wildcats did outscore the Jayhawks, 40-35, after the break. “I don’t think we’re near as complete offensively as where we can get to, which is positive,” Self said. Four of the eight Jayhawks who entered the game scored in double figures. Ellis’ 16 was followed by Wayne Selden Jr. (14), Brannen Greene (11) and Frank Mason III (10). “I think there’s room for growth. I think at times we can really, really, really guard,” Self said. “At times we can be average defensively. What’s frustrating to me, those types of things happen in between timeouts. It’s like Sybil. We have multiple personalities within the game. That’s what’s

frustrating. Even in Fort Worth (a 64-61 win over TCU Wednesday), you can’t say we were awful. We were up 23-10. There was a phase in that game we were really good. Then we can go the other way. “That’s the thing that’s frustrating is the inconsistencies that basically transpire within a game. I don’t think we ever really experienced that here. We’ve had teams go through droughts and things where we did not play as well. It seems to me this team experiences more of those than any else since we’ve been here.” One consistency is KU’s performance against KSU. The Jayhawks have won nine in a row over the Wildcats in Allen and 49 of 53 games overall. “It’s big,” Ellis said of beating KSU again. “We

NOTEBOOK

Ex-Jayhawks in ’house By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

A group of former Kansas University basketball players cheered from the stands during the Jayhawks’ 68-57 victory over Kansas State on Saturday in Allen Fieldhouse. Jayhawks on hand included: Eric Chenowith, Sherron Collins, Mario Little, Greg Ostertag, Scot Pollard, Tyrel Reed, Niko Roberts, Wayne Simien, Conner Teahan, Billy Thomas, Calvin Thompson and Darnell Valentine. Collins and Little visited the KU locker room after the game. “I wanted them to come listen to my speech, so maybe they could put their two cents in, which they did,” coach Bill Self said with a smile. Collins stressed to the team it could play harder than it did Saturday. “Yeah, like he never took a possession off, either,” Self said, smiling. “Isn’t it amazing when you are gone ... Sherron only remembers how hard he played all the time, and I was on his butt just as much as I was everybody else. ’Rio only remembers, ‘I never did that.’ “‘No, you did that all the time.’”

Boston, the first coming way back in October for Late Night in the Phog. “I couldn’t have,” he said. “I would have gotten in trouble.” Selden contributed 14 points and a career-high four blocked shots in a 6857 victory against Kansas State, a game that for most of the afternoon felt more like a 20-point blowout. Selden still hasn’t found the touch on drives to the hoop, that mystery lingers, but he did look more comfortable and put his stamp on the game in a lot of areas. He made three of six threepoint shots and just two of seven inside the arc. On the season, Selden is shooting a respectable 36 percent from three, but just 32.7 percent on twopoint shots. He quickly deflected

For the most part, Selden has done a nice job of not turning a miss from close range into two bad plays by letting it distract him, but on that second-half

play, he appeared still to be thinking about the missed runner instead of turning and running back on defense. On another occasion, reminiscent of former teammate Andrew Wiggins, Selden let his man blow by him and recovered in time for a spectacular blocked shot. Selden said he couldn’t remember another fourblock game. “Maybe in high school, when I was playing center,” he said.

and I felt pretty bad about that,” Selden said. “I don’t know my own strength sometimes.” Greene initially lost his breath, hunched over and began coughing. He quickly recovered and did not show any troubling signs from the accident. l

ISU game next: KU (18-3, 7-1) will meet Iowa State (16-4, 6-2) at 8 p.m. Monday in Allen Fieldhouse. “We owe ’em,” KU freshman Kelly Oubre Jr. said. Iowa State beat KU, 86-81, on Jan. 17 in Ames, Iowa. Iowa State and West Virginia are a game behind KU in the Big 12 standings. “I won’t even mention that. I’ll mention they beat us two weeks ago,” Self said. “That’s probably enough of a (thing to) stress. I’ll not say anything about first place.” l

Streak at 18: Frank Mason III scored 10 points the second half after going scoreless the first. He kept alive a streak of 18 straight games in which he has scored in double figures. “I don’t ever think like that.

Different from most Kansas teams in that it doesn’t have a pure center, this team needs everyone doing his part to camouflage the lack of a rim protector. Selden did more than his part against the fading Wildcats. The moment the game ended, he and everyone else polled said they turned their attention to avenging the loss in Ames to Iowa State, which visits Allen Fieldhouse for a Big Monday match between the Big 12’s best teams. “They outplayed us and out-toughed us in Ames, and I feel like we didn’t play our best,” Selden said of the 86-81 loss. “...

Burroughs on the big screen M

uch has been written and filmed about author/artist William S. Burroughs, who moved in Lawrence in 1981 and lived here for the remainder of his life. But any trace of 1983’s “Burroughs: The Movie,” considered to be the definitive documentary on his life and work, had been considered missing. The movie’s director, Howard Brookner, died tragically of AIDS in 1989 at the age of 34, just as his career was taking off. Three years ago, his nephew, filmmaker Aaron Brookner, hoping to preserve Howard’s legacy, searched exhaustively for a negative of “Burroughs: The Movie” that could be digitally restored. A 16mm print was discovered in storage at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, and was loaned out for his restoration project. To celebrate Burroughs’ birthday on Feb. 5, Liberty Hall is showing the digitally restored “Burroughs: The Movie” at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m., which is currently being distributed for worldwide screenings through Janus Films. Brookner started filmed the doc in 1978 as an NYC film school project with some fellow students.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Caminero-Santangelo was in college when she read “The Handmaid’s Tale” for the first time and remembers “being transported to that world” Atwood created — a world in which women’s rights have been revoked. First published in 1985, the book is set in a theocratic military dictatorship formed within the borders of what used to be the United States. With birthrates dangerously low because of pollution and sexually transmitted diseases, handmaids (essentially concubines) are assigned to bear children for wealthy couples who cannot conceive on their own. The protagonist of the novel, Offred — literally meaning “Of Fred,” named for the powerful man she belongs to — is one of these handmaids. Like others in her class, Offred’s freedoms are severely restricted. Barred from marriage and romantic relationships, she isn’t allowed to leave the house aside from shopping trips, and the state’s secret police watch her every move. In this futuristic former America, the overwhelming majority of women cannot read — not by choice, but by law. That way, the government is able to keep women from obtaining information and communicating with others. It’s not the most obvious message of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” but it’s important all the same, says Caminero-Santangelo. “One thing I think the book says to me is that the essence of women’s rights and human rights is rooted in educational rights and freedom of speech, the right to express ourselves without limitation,” she says. “If the power and possibility

Understanding Atwood through art In conjunction with Atwood’s KU visit, the Spencer Museum of Art and the Lawrence Public Library are hosting “Art Musings on ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’” Feb. 25 at the museum. The book discussion will begin with a guided tour of artwork that complement the themes of “The Handmaid’s Tale.” Susan Earle, curator of American and European art at the Spencer, is selecting pieces for that tour, which she hopes will spur conversations about the social issues portrayed in the novel. Fertility, color symbolism and the objectification of the female body are some of the themes represented in the tour. In 1966, artist Mimi Smith took a delicate, lacy peignoir and added steel wool to its collar and sleeves, creating a contrast between “the romanticized view of marriage and the reality of housework and cleaning.” If the original negligee represented women as sex objects, the steel peignoir is a way of declaring, “If I wear this, I’m in control,” Earle says. “Part of the way the handmaids are controlled is that they’re required to wear very specific clothing that completely covers their bodies” Earle says. “The peignoir is kind of the opposite of that. In some ways, it’s reinvesting women with agency.” ‘One or two steps ahead’ The society described in “The Handmaid’s Tale” may seem farflung, but it’s not necessarily out of the realm of possibility. Instead, the

interviews, including one from Sturges aficionado Bill Hader. On the other side of the coin from upbeat comedy is Criterion’s 4K remastered “The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant,” a beautifully claustrophobic 1972 romantic drama that applies Bertold Brecht’s “epic theater” concepts to film. Prolific writer/director Rainer Werner Fassbinder first staged this semi-autobiographical movie as a play, but it really took flight as a movie, flip-flopping gender and exploring his own romantic obsession with an actor through the roles of two women. Director of photography Michael Ballhaus later shot Martin Scorsese’s “Goodfellas,” “Gangs of New York,” and “The Departed,” but this is the cinematographer’s breakthrough movie. He steers his camera artfully through a house in long, flowing takes that reinforce the alienation of established fashion designer Petra (Margit Carstensen), who falls madly in love with new girl Karin (Hanna Schygulla). On one level, “The Bitter Tears of Petra Von Kant” is an engrossing

character study about changing power dynamics in relationships. On another, it’s simply a marvel of fluid, focused filmmaking — where everything in the frame is loaded with meaning.

1152 Hour Film Festival The Wild West Film Festival is celebrating 10 years of creative madness, sleepless nights and helping charities by shaking things up. Each year, teams of filmmakers are handed a secret criteria and then have 48 hours to write, cast, shoot and edit an original short film. Only this year, the each team has 48 days to complete their film. The official name of this year’s competition is the 1152 Hour Film Festival, and teams from anywhere can enter online now. At 7 p.m. Feb. 6, the secret criteria will be emailed to each team and production begins. There are no restrictions on location, team size or budget. — Eric Melin is the editorin-chief of Scene-Stealers.

novel explores issues that Atwood was observing at the time and amplifies them — a prediction of what might happen. “It imagines intensification of really problematic gender relations,” says Paul Outka, KU English professor. “It’s a book that tried to imagine or provide a dystopian future that’s based on a kind of intensification of things that are already present.” Outka regularly uses Atwood’s 2003 novel, “Oryx and Crate” in his classes. Like “The Handmaid’s Tale” and other Atwood works, it’s set in a dystopian world that’s “one or two steps” ahead of contemporary society. Atwood anticipated a lot of things, agrees Caminero-Santangelo, notably the recent explosion of post-apocalyptic young-adult fiction. While many cite “The Hunger Games” as leading the trend, Suzanne Collins’ books echo themes from Atwood’s work published decades before, she says. “If you think about that series, it’s a series about young adults at war in a society that drastically limits their possibilities for self-expression and survival,” CamineroSantangelo says. “It’s interesting to speculate … why our young generations might feel particularly constrained by their possibilities today.” — Features reporter Joanna Hlavacek can be reached at jhlavacek@ljworld.com and 832-6388.

Exhibit celebrates loveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many forms By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

With Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day on the horizon, the Lawrence Percolator is hosting a show that celebrates devotion in all its forms. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exhibition, The Love Show, is the Percolatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third based on that theme. It opened during Januaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Final Friday event and will run until Feb. 22. Every winter, organizers invite artists of all ages and skills levels from the Lawrence community to submit work â&#x20AC;&#x153;pertaining to all issues of the heart,â&#x20AC;? says Percolator co-chair Matthew Lord. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to encourage people to be creative in however they want to express themselves,â&#x20AC;? he says of the show, which features about 40 pieces of art. The mediums and techniques on display are diverse â&#x20AC;&#x201D; jewelry mak-

ing, painting, sculpture, handmade dolls and valentines, tapestries and more â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but all evoke a common theme.

Despite falling close to Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day, the exhibition isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t limited to romantic or erotic love. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also the love we

The Percolatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual showcase of women performers is slated for Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day and will feature music, poetry and dance. Planning this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exhibition, Lord says, reminds him of â&#x20AC;&#x153;the beauty behind these Percolator shows,â&#x20AC;? where a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crayon drawing can hang alongside the work of a more seasoned artist.

hen JournalWorld Photo Chief Mike Yoder told me that we had been offered a position in President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s press pool during his Jan. 22 visit to Lawrence, I believe I channeled Keanu Reeves when I responded, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whooooooooaaaaa.â&#x20AC;? My mouth may have also stayed open a few elongated seconds, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to ask Mike. On paper, what that meant was that I would be traveling with the presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s motorcade from the morning hours at the Holiday Inn Lawrence all the way through his departure from Forbes Field following the speech. Part of preparing for every assignment is thinking about the possibilities of what might happen so as not to be caught off guard when something actually does. With this one I may have let my mind wander as I found myself entertaining some pretty elaborate ideas. Some of these notions included President Obama and his staff laughing over breakfast at Ladybird Diner, jogging on the Kansas River trail in the morning, drinking a John Brown Ale from Free State Brewing Company and then shooting three-pointers with Frank Mason inside the Fieldhouse. Eventually I checked myself with some reality that this was preposterous. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Duh,â&#x20AC;? I thought. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of course he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drink the beer before shooting three-pointers because nobodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shot is going to be on after drinking one of those.â&#x20AC;? Obviously, the beer would come later. I arrived at the hotel around 7 a.m. to meet up with the press pool. After passing through the metal detectors and being patted down by Secret Service, I first noticed chief White House photographer Pete Souza, a Kansas State graduate, sitting in the lobby. I introduced myself and asked him if there was anything I needed to know or if he had any advice for a first-timer like myself. He told me we were making a stop but he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell me what it was. His advice: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just chill.â&#x20AC;? This is something that had not occurred to me up until this point. From there I was taken to a lounge where my gear was again examined by Secret Service and a German shepherd, which Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m all but certain had a name like Nero or Nitro. When the inspection was over and it was time to load up, we

minutes, 40 seconds, the president made chitchat with the children as he meandered around the room, often getting down to their level while sparking conversation about their books. The mood was light, he was animated and I sensed that he really enjoyed being around those 15 or so little bodies who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want anything from him and really only knew him as a guy on TV. I imagine for the president and the press that cover him regularly that truly candid interactions like this are rare because of his prominence, and I feel lucky to have witnessed one.

Nick Hornbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newest book, about a Lucille Ball wannabe, falls flat

By David L. Ulin Los Angeles Times

Nick Hornbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Juliet, Nakedâ&#x20AC;? (2009), felt like a culmination of a kind. Revolving around a reclusive rock star and the fans who will not let him rest, it was a callback to Hornbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early work â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fever Pitch,â&#x20AC;? a nonfiction account of his soccer fanhood, or his first novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;High Fidelity,â&#x20AC;? which takes place in a record shop. Hornby has explored similar fascinations in his criticism: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Songbook,â&#x20AC;? a collection of essays about 31 iconic rock songs, or the column â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stuff Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve Been Reading,â&#x20AC;? which he has written for the Believer since 2003. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still the thing that defines me,â&#x20AC;? he acknowledged in a 2005 interview, although this, of course, suggests some complications of its own. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m interested in now,â&#x20AC;? he continued, â&#x20AC;&#x153;is the idea that anyone who persists and tries to become some kind of artist is emotionally immature. It seems to me that the big passage to adulthood is accepting that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not special. As a kid, you think you are.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible to read â&#x20AC;&#x153;Funny Girl,â&#x20AC;? the authorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first novel in more than five years, and not think

NICK HORNBYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S NEW NOVEL â&#x20AC;&#x153;FUNNY GIRLâ&#x20AC;? is about a pageant winner and TV comedian obsessed with Lucille Ball. of such a line. Set, for the most part, during the 1960s, this is a departure for Hornby â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the story of a young woman named Sophie Straw (nee Barbara Parker), who after being named 1964â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Miss Blackpool, decamps from the north of England for Swinging London, where she becomes a TV comedian. Sophie is obsessed with Lucille Ball and wants to bring her sort of energy to British television, but initially thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hard sell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way I remember it,â&#x20AC;? her agent says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lucille

Ball wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t left with much choice. She was knocking on a bit, and nobody was giving her romantic leads anymore, so she had to start making funny faces. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got years before we have to start thinking about that.â&#x20AC;? Hornby has written about other female protagonists: Annie in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Juliet, Naked,â&#x20AC;? Katie Carr in â&#x20AC;&#x153;How to Be Good.â&#x20AC;? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something more expansive, though, in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Funny Girl,â&#x20AC;? which is as sedate a work as he has produced. What I mean is that this is a book that takes the long view, that seeks to give us a broad sense of its charactersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; circumstances. In that regard, its 1960s setting serves a double purpose

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; first, to engage us in the energy of the eraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s burgeoning youth culture, and second, to remind us of the speed with which time eclipses all. Sophie is an appropriate signifier: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here was everything they wanted to bring to the screen,â&#x20AC;? Hornby writes of the production team that discovers her, â&#x20AC;&#x153;in one neat and beautifully gift-wrapped package, handed to them by a ferocious and undiscovered talent who looked like a star. The class system, men and women and the relationships between them, snobbery, education, the North and the South, politics, the way that a new country seemed to be emerging from the dismal old one that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d all grown up in.â&#x20AC;? The members of that team are the novelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other central players â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Clive, the leading man who becomes Sophieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s faithless fiance; Dennis, the producer-director who loves her from a distance; the writers, Bill and Tony â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one gay, the other married but (perhaps) closeted. It adds up to the portrait of a culture in transition, in which â&#x20AC;&#x153;(w)hat was once both pertinent and laudably impertinent became familiar and sometimes even a little polite.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Funny Girlâ&#x20AC;? is at its best in its evocation of these shifting sands of normalcy, the ever-expanding notion of what propriety will bear. By 1967, when their series, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Barbara (and Jim),â&#x20AC;? goes off the air after

three seasons, the characters have moved from meeting with Prime Minister Harold Wilson at 10 Downing Street to fighting about how to maintain their edge. Bill publishes a novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Diary of a Soho Boy,â&#x20AC;? that if not graphic is explicit; â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to write for grannies in bloody Melton Mowbray,â&#x20AC;? he declares. The irony, of course, is that the joke is on him as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bill knew that publishing was different,â&#x20AC;? Hornby writes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He had no idea that it was a virtually uninhabited country, like Australia.â&#x20AC;? Such a tension is hardly unique to Hornbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s characters â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a similar shift marks the career arc of the Beatles, from MBE to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Revolution,â&#x20AC;? or, say, Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. One of the nicest touches in the novel, in fact, is Hornbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s use of real people as a kind of heightened set dressing, a source of verisimilitude. A young Jimmy Page, for instance, records the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Barbara (and Jim)â&#x20AC;? theme song, and Sophie is hit on by Keith Relf of the Yardbirds while on a date in a London club. And yet, in the end, this cannot compensate for a flatness in the novel, a lack of full dimensionality. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Funny Girlâ&#x20AC;? is unenjoyable; like much of Hornbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s writing, it is funny and fast moving, perceptive and sharp. There is, however, no edge of consequence, no real sense of stakes.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Vampire Hunterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; author juggles films, graphic novels By Alicia Rancilio Associated Press

New York â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Seth Grahame-Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life could be described as a mash-up.

This February, salute hospitalized veterans Dear Annie: Each February, Americans participate in the National Salute to Veteran Patients by visiting and volunteering at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers, and by sending valentines and letters of thanks to those who have protected our nation. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Salute is February 8-14, and we again encourage communities across the country to take part in this effort to honor our hospitalized veterans. As many of your readers know, this past year has been one of challenge for VA. Some veterans have fairly questioned our ability to deliver quality care. We at VA are listening, and we understand that we must continue to improve our services to better serve our veter-

ans. Through our MyVA initiative, VA is focused on improving customer service to ensure veterans are in control of how, when and where they want to be served. In 2014, VA significantly increased the number of completed health care appointments and authorizations for veterans to receive private-sector care. We have made progress to rebuild trust with veterans and stakeholders, improve service delivery, and set a

Try these Super Bowl alternatives â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a stupid football game.â&#x20AC;? So said Louis C.K., a self-described Patriots fan from Boston, of Super Bowl XLIX (4:30 p.m., NBC) between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks. The cerebral comic made his remarks to David Letterman while discussing the â&#x20AC;&#x153;deflate-gateâ&#x20AC;? allegations that the Patriots had played with softer balls during their playoff victories. But his quote pretty much sums up what many feel about the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final NFL game and its attendant buildup. Let others focus on the 100 million or so Americans tuning into the commercials and the game. I like to consider the 200 million or so fellow citizens who will be watching something else today, or nothing at all. Entire entertainment franchises have been built on Super Bowl avoidance. For those who cannot read Roman numerals, Animal Planetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Puppy Bowl XI (2 p.m.) is now in its 11th year. Kitten Bowl II (5 p.m., Hallmark) and Fish Bowl II (5 p.m., Nat Geo Wild) have both entered their sophomore seasons. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to look at animals to avoid football. WGN, the Chicago-based superstation, will unspool 10 hours, or 20 consecutive episodes, of â&#x20AC;&#x153;How I Met Your Motherâ&#x20AC;? (11 a.m.). â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Walking Deadâ&#x20AC;? marathon (9 a.m., AMC) also gets going well before tailgating time. Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prime-time programming (7 p.m. to 10 p.m.) includes steady helpings of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Criminal Mindsâ&#x20AC;? (A&E); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dukes of Hazzardâ&#x20AC;? (CMT); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknownâ&#x20AC;? (CNN); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rehab Addictâ&#x20AC;? (DIY); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Alaskan Bush Peopleâ&#x20AC;? (Discovery); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Worst Cooks in Americaâ&#x20AC;? (Food); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Swamp Peopleâ&#x20AC;? (History); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ridiculousnessâ&#x20AC;? (MTV); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Snappedâ&#x20AC;? (Oxygen); â&#x20AC;&#x153;Copsâ&#x20AC;? (Spike) and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sex Sent Me to the ERâ&#x20AC;? (TLC). And, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not forget, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Family Feudâ&#x20AC;? (GSN). Of course, football avoidance has transcended the mere television dial. Streaming services like Netflix, Amazon and Hulu offer football avoidance yearround.

course for long-term excellence and reform. But more work remains. Those who continue to serve our veterans each and every day by volunteering at a VA facility give of themselves to assist and care for those who have served our nation proudly. Our VA volunteer support is evident each and every day at our 152 medical facilities, 827 community-based outpatient clinics, 300 Vet Centers, and 70 outreach and mobile clinics. Last year, 404,367 valentines were received at VA medical centers, along with 20,697 visits to an estimated 93,000 hospitalized veteran patients. I thank you and your readers for your work in bringing attention to this worthy cause. As the secretary of

For Sunday, Feb. 1: This year you seem to express more compassion to those around you. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll stop and ask others how they are with authenticity. If you are single, you have the ability to lure potential suitors toward you. If you are attached, the two of you like participating in each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives more than many couples do. The stars show the kind of day youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Remain calm when dealing with an important person. You could let the situation develop into a struggle of wills. Tonight: In the whirlwind of the moment. Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ Keep asking questions, and you will get a better grasp of a situation. You might see the situation differently.Tonight: Catch up on a neighborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s news. Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++ Avoid being demanding. Someone very close to you could have a major problem. Tonight: Make a long-overdue call. Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++++ Events that normally upset you will slide right off of you. Be aware of what is happening. Tonight: Off to the movies. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++ Honor a need to get away from all the fuss. Knowing when enough is enough could be more important than you realize. Tonight: Not alone.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ++++ Zero in on what is important. Someone might initiate a conversation that delights you. Tonight: A loved one wants to reel you in. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) +++ Know what is possible between you and someone else. Your ability to move forward with grace might irk this person. Tonight: Throw a spontaneous get-together. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) +++++ If you follow your gut, you could be surprised by what happens. You seem to know what to do. Tonight: Make sure to add a little more romance to your life. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) +++++ Allow yourself to relate to a special person. The two of you seem to benefit from being with each other. Tonight: Be a duo. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ++++ You could be overwhelmed by people calling you. Try not to be so closed off. Tonight: Ask, and you just might receive. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ++++ You might want to try a different approach. You might be taken aback by everything. Tonight: Binge-watch a TV series. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ++++ Assess everything you must do in order to make someone else content. Reach out to a loved one. Tonight: The party goes on.
