Prosecutor calls homicide ‘cruel, heinous and atrocious’ Defense attorney says client has mental problems

The suspect: Sarah B. Gonzales McLinn, 19

The victim: Harold Sasko, 52

The district attorney: Charles Branson

The defense attorney: Carl Cornwell

By Nikki Wentling nwentling@ljworld.com

Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said the state would seek a “Hard 50” sentence if Sarah B. Gonzales McLinn, the 19-year-old woman accused of killing 52-yearold Lawrence resident Harold Sasko, is convicted of first-degree murder in a crime that Branson described as “cruel, heinous and atrocious.”

That means McLinn, who on Monday made her first appearance in Douglas County District Court, could serve 50 years in prison without parole if a jury decides she’s guilty.

“The facts of this case … determine that Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo a ‘Hard 50’ sentence MICHELLE GONZALES, RIGHT, mother of Sarah B. Gonzales McLinn, walks Monday with other family members would be appropriate,” into the Douglas County Judicial and Law Enforcement Center before a court appearance for McLinn, 19, who is Branson said at a press charged with first-degree murder in the death of Lawrence resident Harold M. Sasko, 52.

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @GilesBruce

Lawrence was to wake this morning to the worst storm of the season so far with the National Weather Service predicting wup to 10 inches of snow, and potentially more, through Wednesday morning.

Kansas University, Lawrence public schools and many others are closed, the state is advising against nonessential travel, and residents spent Monday stocking up on milk, movies and shovels in anticipation.

Shawn Byrne, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Topeka, said that this week’s storm is likely to be Snowmaggedon: Northeast Kansas Edition. “Provided we get the amounts we’re calling for, this would be biggest storm this season, at least for Topeka

ther, sister and friends attended her court appearance. Cornwell said McLinn was “embarrassed” to see them.

“I’m not going to say she’s admitted to doing anything,” Cornwell said.

“I’m just suggesting the case isn’t a matter of who has done it, but why.”

Cornwell met with McLinn over the weekend.

He said McLinn seemed “orientated,” noting she is not undergoing psychiatric counseling.

“I don’t think she has substance-abuse problems,” Cornwell said.

“Does she have emotional problems? Yes. Mental problems? Yes, no question.

“She’s a bright lady.

She’s not vicious. I’m just trying to understand what’s going on.”

In court, Cornwell asked District Judge Paula Martin to set McLinn’s next appearance sometime after a duration of 45 days, saying he needed time to go over evidence and meet with a forensic psychologist.

conference following the court proceeding.

But Carl Cornwell, McLinn’s attorney, said he hoped to work out a plea deal with prosecutors rather than have the case go to trial. The “Hard 50” sentence prosecutors are seeking could make that challenging, he explained.

“It’s like a death penalty,” Cornwell said. “So you have to kind of do everything you can to keep that from happening.”

Branson said the prosecution would be “open to a dialogue with the defense.”

After McLinn’s appearance Monday, Cornwell called the case “strange,” adding: “I’m as perplexed as I have been in a long time.” He suggested the case would produce some “aha” moments.

Wichita man sentenced 40 months for shooting

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

A Wichita man has been sentenced to 40 months in prison on a federal gun charge stemming from the July 2013 murder in Lawrence of 51-year-old Gary Edens.

Johnathan R. Rush, 29, was sentenced Monday in U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kan. He pleaded guilty in November to one count of unlawful possession of a firearm after a felony conviction.

Rush and a co-defendant, Brittny Adams, 20, of Topeka, were both charged in connection with the July 17, 2013, murder of Edens at his home on the 600 block of Michigan Street.

Adams pleaded guilty in January to second degree murder in that case. She is scheduled for sentencing in Douglas County District

Court later this month.

According to U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom’s office, Rush and Adams drove to Eden’s home that day.

While there, Rush was involved in a fight with two men. During the struggle, Edens was killed by a single gunshot to the head.

Rush and Adams then drove to Topeka in her Pontiac Grand Am. Somewhere between Lawrence and Topeka, Adams threw several items out of the car, including a .45 caliber gun.

They were stopped by the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Department near Sixth Street and Rice Avenue in Topeka. A deputy recovered the gun about 100 yards from where the car was stopped.

Rush was prohibited under federal law from possessing a gun due to a 2005 felony conviction in Shawnee County.

“

I’m not going to say she’s admitted to doing anything. I’m just suggesting the case isn’t a matter of who has done it, but why.”

— Carl Cornwell, McLinn’s defense attorney

Branson said “a significant amount of discovery” would need to take place before a potential trial, and it could take months to resolve.

McLinn’s next appearance is tentatively set for 2 p.m. March 27.

Sasko, the owner of three CiCi’s Pizza restaurants between Topeka and Lawrence, was found dead Jan. 17 in the home he and McLinn shared in the 2900 block of West 26th Street. McLinn, a former employee of Sasko’s, is accused of gaining control over him and killing him with an “edged instrument” on or around Jan. 14.

In addition to premeditated first-degree murder, McLinn also is

charged with felony theft of Sasko’s vehicle. She was found in Everglades National Park in Florida with Sasko’s 2008 Nissan Altima on Jan. 25, according to Lawrence police.

Branson confirmed Monday that weapons were found in the vehicle, but he would neither confirm nor deny a specific report from Florida law enforcement sources that rangers who found McLinn located knives, guns and an ax in the vehicle.

McLinn returned to Kansas late last week after being released from federal custody on a drug charge related to her Florida arrest. She was booked Saturday into the Douglas County Jail and is being held on a $1 million bond.

and Lawrence,” he said.

Kris Sanders, another NWS meteorologist, said Monday night snow accumulation should reach eight to 10 inches in the Lawrence area. Byrne said the storm should be most intense, with snow falling at a rate of about 1.5 inches an hour, in the midmorning and late afternoon.

That’s also the time the wind is expected to pick up, with gusts of about 25 miles per hour causing blowing snow and snowdrifts. Byrne expects the storm to taper off sometime this evening and end by Wednesday morning, with the winds likely to continue through Wednesday evening. That will translate to low visibility on area roads for much of the week.

Gov. Sam Brownback ordered state offices in the Topeka area to close today, prompting House and Senate leaders to cancel legislative business.

Much of Lawrence was in preparation mode Monday.

Crews pretreated roads and made sure their plows were ready.

“From early this morning, it’s been pretty busy,” said Mike Smith, store director at Checkers Foods, 2300 Louisiana St., where customers stocked up on items such as canned food, beans, tomatoes and eggs. Hy-Vee, 4000 W. Sixth St., saw an influx of business, with customers grabbing the “staples” such as bread, milk, meat and produce, according to store director Andy Sutton.

Local hardware stores also saw an uptick in business Monday, as residents did last-minute shopping for Ice Melt and shovels.

“I’d say it’s been about twice as busy as normal,” said Paul Groundwater, manager at Westlake Ace Hardware, 711 W. 23rd St., which also sold lots of hand warmers and tube

Lawrencians even stocked up on reading materials and movies ahead of the inclement weather. Darla Sieg, circulation assistant at the Lawrence Public Library, 700 New Hampshire St., said the circulation desk was a little busier than usual Monday, with many patrons commenting that they needed something to read or watch while being stuck inside.

In Lawrence, city crews plowed over the weekend and pretreated roads ahead of the storm. They planned to focus on first clearing major roads today. “Once the snow has stopped falling, our crews shift efforts to cleanup and plowing snow in residential areas,” said assistant public works director Mark Thiel.

Crews with the Kansas Turnpike Authority also pretreated roads Monday to keep ice from freezing to the concrete. KTA advises motorists to be cautious on the road, particularly when driving around plows. “With snow flying around, it’s hard for snow-plow operators to see, and even harder when people drive past them,” said KTA spokeswoman Jeri Biehler. “It’s not uncommon for our trucks and plows to be hit by people trying to zip around them.”

Five car lengths is a good distance to keep in mind during snowy conditions, Biehler said. She also recommends that drivers be aware of their surroundings so they know where they are in case their vehicles get into an accident or break down. Transportation authorities also caution drivers to keep their gas tanks and washer fluid full, make sure their tires are properly inflated and carry an emergency kit with a cellphone, snacks and blanket.

The city will update its website, www.lawrenceks. org/snow, with information on snow crews’ progress during the storm.

Frosty game of fetch

County to consider $6.5M plan for fairground additions

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

A long-awaited master plan for improvements at the Douglas County Fairgrounds calls for an estimated $6.5 million worth of improvements, including a new open pavilion, expanded parking and a public meeting hall.

County commissioners

will get their first look at the plans during a work session scheduled for 3 p.m.

Wednesday COUNTY at the County COMMISSION Courthouse.

Assistant County Administrator Sarah Plinsky said various groups that use the fairgrounds at 19th and

Harper have been pushing for improvements since about 2006. She said there is a large amount of “deferred maintenance” at the facility, including buildings that are not handicapped accessible, but efforts to address those issues were put on hold during the economic downturn that began in 2008.

Westar embracing solar energy, installing 160 solar panels at facility

FROM LEFT, DOGS SUKI, SOPHIE AND CATORI patiently wait for Kin Onn Chan, a third-year graduate student from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to throw a stick as they play Monday on the campus of Kansas University.

There’s a $200,000 project underway to install solar panels in Lawrence, and you might be surprised who is behind it — the operator of the large coal-fired power plant just outside of the city.

Topeka-based Westar Energy is installing 160 solar panels on its maintenance facility and service center at 746 E. 27th St. in southeast Lawrence.

Regents’ president discusses higher education priorities at Rotary

By Ben Unglesbee Twitter:” @LJW_KU

Kansas Board of Regents President Andy Tompkins recalls that when he graduated from college in 1969, he walked out owing $2,000 in student debt, which might sound like a pittance next to the $1 trillion in student

debt held by the country today.

To put the amount in perspective, Tompkins said the next year he bought a new Dodge for about the same amount, $2,000. Estimating an equivalent car today would cost about $20,000, compared to about $23,700 in student debt for the average Kansas graduate, Thompkins

said, “We’re not too far off.”

Student debt was among the topics on Tompkins’ mind at a talk at the Lawrence Rotary Club on Monday.

Front and center, though, was the regents’ effort to increase the number of Kansans with degrees and other higher education credentials, a key pillar of the regents’ strategic plan.

The regents have set a goal of getting 60 percent of Kansans a bachelor’s degree, associates degree or technical certificate by 2020. Currently about 52 percent of Kansans acquire a higher education credit.

Single car accident hospitalizes 2

A single-vehicle accident in western Douglas County hospitalized two people with serious injuries Monday, according to Lyle Schwartz, division chief of LawrenceDouglas County Fire Medical.

Ena Yazzie, 40, and Ella Yazzie, 69, both of Topeka, were taken to Stormont-Vail HealthCare, according to a crash report from the Kansas Highway Patrol. The hospital could not provide an update on their conditions Monday night. They were the vehicle’s only occupants.

One was airlifted from the scene and the other taken by ground, according to Schwartz. He could not say if their injuries were lifethreatening.

According to the report, the accident occurred at about 4:20 p.m. on the 1600 block of E. 50 Road in western Douglas County. The vehicle, a 1999 Chevy Blazer, left the roadway twice and rolled over several times,

now known as Buildings 1 and 2.

Plinsky said it will be up to county commissioners to decide how much of the plan to pursue, and whether to finance it with capital improvement funds or general obligation bonds.

After the work session commissioners will conduct their regular 4 p.m. meeting, which includes a discussion of possible new development codes for wind energy projects.

In December, commissioners imposed a moratorium on permits for wind energy development after Florida-based NextEra Energy Resources began soliciting easements to build wind towers in southwest Douglas County.

Would you use medical marijuana if it were legal and a doctor prescribed it to you?

YOUR HEALTH YOUR COMMUNITY YOUR STORY

MEDICAL MARIJUANA YOUR VIEW

ONLINE POLL We asked LJWorld. com and WellCommons.com readers to weigh in on medical marijuana.

Will Orlowski, student, Lawrence “I wouldn’t seek it out, but if a doctor prescribes it to you that is their profession. I would probably ask them if there’s something else I can do, though.”

In your opinion, is marijuana safe to use with a doctor’s prescription?

Yes: 85 percent No: 15 percent Would you use medical marijuana if it were legal in Lawrence?

Yes: 77 percent No: 23 percent

Zac Bennett, cook, Lawrence “I probably wouldn’t. It’s not for me.”

Poll results are not scientific. 600 total votes were cast by press time.

MEDICAL MARIJUANA IS DISPLAYED at a Denver dispensary in January. On Kansas’ western border, the state of Colorado has completely decriminalized marijuana for recreational and medicinal use, and now boasts the world’s most open laws on the sale and production of cannabis.

Charles Glover, landscaper, Lawrence “I might — if the doctor prescribed it and I had something I needed it for — just like I take over-thecounter drugs or prescriptions now.”

Victoria Pulley, student, Lawrence “I would. I really don’t think that marijuana is a big deal, and if it was legal I would go for it.”

Sarah Adler, photographer, Eudora “I wouldn’t ’cause I have asthma.”

supplier in trouble. Now, Mulford is homebound, out of full-time work, close to needing surgery — all, he says, because he doesn’t have access to medical marijuana.

Many patients and advocates say medical marijuana can help alleviate such conditions as pain, nausea and anxiety, and benefit patients with diseases like AIDS, cancer and multiple sclerosis. But because of a lack of research in the United States, the debate over the medicinal benefits of cannabis has yet to be settled. Twenty states and the District of Columbia have legalized the drug for medical uses, but while several medical marijuana bills have been introduced in the Kansas Legislature in recent years, none have reached the floor for a vote.

Contrary opinions Eric Voth and Jon Hauxwell are probably the two leading experts in Kansas on the medicinal value of mari-

juana. And their opinions on the topic couldn’t be more diametrically opposed.

Voth, a Topeka internist, says medical marijuana is just a front for those who want to legalize pot completely, while Hauxwell, a retired family doctor who lives near Hays, claims the drug can be a valuable tool for health care providers.

Never before, says Voth, have voters decided on whether a given substance should be used for medical purposes. Normally, he notes, medications go through a rigorous process of research, development and approval by the Food and Drug Administration.

Voth admits that some cannabinoids, of which there are dozens in marijuana, probably have medical benefits, so researchers should extract those and put them into a pill or injectable form whose strength can be regulated.

“Show me anywhere where we embrace smoking a medication,” he said.

Added Voth: “I think the medical issue is a fraud, and it’s a Trojan horse. It’s purely to try to turn the public’s opinion.”

Hauxwell argues otherwise. He believes medical marijuana can reduce pain, particularly that of the neuropathic variety, and that it’s less addictive and deadly than many commonly prescribed opiate painkillers.

Neuropathic pain is where the nerve fibers send incorrect signals to other pain centers. An example is phantom limb syndrome.

“Any medication is a balance between risk and benefit — cannabis is no different,” he said. “But its benefits for properly selected patients considerably outweigh the risks for the individual.”

Hauxwell went on to say that, unlike cigarettes, marijuana hasn’t been found to cause lung cancer, though he wouldn’t recommend it to patients with a prior lung condition; instead, they’d have the option of vaporizing or eating the drug. He said pot’s classification as a Schedule I controlled substance (the same as heroin and ecstasy) makes it more difficult for the medical community to research its effectiveness. And, he added, he would never recommend its use to a child with a less-than-serious ailment — many urge cannabis as a cure for childhood seizures — as marijuana can affect brain development.

Limited knowledge Local doctors, if they’re even willing to speak on the record on such a controversial topic, don’t seem to know a lot about medical marijuana because, it being illegal, they don’t have to.

“I think it’s just a fault of the ignorance — it’s not in our repertoire yet, especially being a Kansas physician,” said Ajay Tejwani, a Lawrence radiation oncologist, adding: “For the most part, I don’t think physicians would have an issue prescribing it if the research showed that it worked.”

Ryan Neuhofel, a primary care doctor in Lawrence, said that if he were able to prescribe marijuana, he would do so the same as he does with any other medication: with caution.

“Marijuana is certainly not a safe or harmless substance, but its side effect profile is comparable, and in many cases better, than many commonly used prescription drugs,” he said.

“My concern with legalizing marijuana solely in a medical setting is the burden it would place upon the health care system for recreational users seeking ‘prescriptions.’”

Allie Ramsey, an Overland Park nurse who researched medical marijuana as a student in the Kansas University School of Nursing, noted that one of the oldest medical texts in the world — the Chinese “Shen-nung Pen-tsao Ching” (or “Divine Farmer’s Classic of Materia Medica”), written approximately 2,000 years ago — mentions using marijuana to treat digestive disorders and rheumatic pain, and that doctors in the U.S. prescribed it prior to marijuana prohibition.

Ramsey became interested in the topic after seeing the success that two aunts with terminal cancer had with dronabinol, a legal cannabinoid already prescribed by doctors.

“I saw it greatly affect their lives,” she said. “It decreased their nausea and vomiting significantly, to the point where they were able to eat again.”

Lawrence resident Patrick Wilbur, a member of the state Libertarian Party, said he became sold on the benefits of medicinal marijuana after working an advocacy booth at the state fair a few years back, when he was approached by numerous people who told

that his last name not be included because he uses cannabis illegally, said that after years of trying different treatments and medications for his back and neck pain, the result of a childhood car accident, he tried pot for User says it works the first time at a party Dylan, a Lawrence in high school. It immeresident who requested diately helped with his him how pot helped with their physical ailments.

“Of course there were just as many people who just wanted to smoke weed,” he said, “but I never realized the (medical) need was that great.”

pain and mobility, Dylan said, and got him off opiate painkillers that had previously left him sick and addicted.

Dylan also watched the way medical cannabis alleviated his uncle’s side effects from chemotherapy, reviving his appetite, energy and ability to sleep. The uncle was getting the marijuana from a friend who would drive to Colorado, where it was legal, but his supply was cut off after the man was arrested. The condition of Dylan’s uncle took a turn for the worse and he died soon after. Dylan blames the loss of his medical marijuana supply.

Eventually, Dylan was himself arrested for marijuana possession and forced to give up smoking pot. He endured more surgeries, epidurals and pills, some of which made him so sick and out of it he failed out of college. But a few years ago, finally off probation, Dylan said, he went back to marijuana, and the therapeutic effects were the same. Now in his 20s, he works at a local restaurant and is back attending Kansas University.

“I haven’t had a surgery in over six years because of the healing powers of cannabis,” he said. “Why should I be arrested, thrown in jail and forced to spend thousands of dollars for trying to live my life pain-free?”

HEALTH NOTES

Double Take Free Spanish yoga classes offered

Dr. Wes Crenshaw and Kendra Schwartz

Dating in close circles Dear Dr. Wes & Kendra: I go to a small school, where everyone knows everyone else. It gets too close for dating at times, and things get really awkward in a hurry. What do you suggest to avoid this problem and still have someone to date?

Kendra: There may be ‘plenty of fish in the sea,’ but at small schools, you’re fishing in a mini pool, making dating a lot like “The Bachelorette,� with your peers acting as audience.

Although this can seem discouraging, it’s safer than any other dating style.

While everyone in school will know your dating history, you will also quickly discover the best prospective partners.

Here are some tips on how to avoid an awkward dating environment: Be honest. In a small school, there are no real secrets, so be truthful about who you’re interested in, and what you’re looking for in a dating partner.

Avoid unnecessary PDA. You don’t want the reputation of being the “make-out couple,� and in a small school, with everyone together constantly, you’re sure to make everyone uncomfortable.

Wes: Kendra nails the secrets of close-in dating, so I’m going to sing the praises of simply not doing it. I grew up in a small town, and I can safely say that the best advice is to keep your school relationships and your romances as separate as possible.

Politics crushes romance. A common way that high school rivals (and occasionally, siblings) gain advantage is to undercut each other’s relationships.

You may find yourself worrying constantly about assaults on your true love, whether warranted or not.

It’s too easy, especially in a small school, to get into situations that you can’t get out of.

Who gets the friends?

There’s always a complicated social network in high school. When a breakup occurs, the tapestry frays in a hurry, leaving friend groups divided. And when there are only about 30 or 40 friends to choose from, someone’s going to get left out.

Out of sight, out of mind. Although social networking is a big culprit here, having to see your ex every day in the hallway makes it a lot harder to move on, particularly when he or she is being asked out by your best friend, or your worst enemy. You’ll get to see that a lot if you do not heed this advice.

I realize that some relationships are hard to resist, but if you’re not in one yet and you’d like to be, consider dating in another area school. Not only will you avoid these pitfalls, you might make a whole new group of friends, while keeping the ones you already have. — Wes Crenshaw, Ph.D., ABPP, is author of “Dear Dr. Wes: Real Life Advice for Teens� and “Real Life Advice for Parents of Teens.� Learn about his practice Family Psychological Services at dr-wes.com.

EDITORIALS

Playing chicken Negotiating measures to protect the Lesser Prairie Chicken in Kansas makes more sense than setting up a legal battle with the federal government.

T

he voice of reason on a bill concerning protections for prairie chickens in Kansas appears to be coming from State Sen. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence.

The legislation approved by a Kansas Senate committee last week sets the stage for the state to pick a fight with the federal government not unlike the spectacle of two puffed-up male prairie chickens strutting their stuff during mating season.

Only in this case, the state is unlikely to succeed in any effort to usurp the powers of the federal government.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service currently is considering the possibility of listing the Lesser Prairie Chicken as a threatened species under the federal Endangered Species Act. No decision on the designation has been made, but Kansas legislators, with the support of Secretary of State Kris Kobach, already are preparing for a fight over an issue that they say will have a negative impact on some state agriculture and energy interests.

The bill approved in committee declares that any law that protects either the Greater or Lesser Prairie Chicken would be null and void in Kansas. Never mind the problems with the state seeking to prosecute federal officers who are doing their job.

Also never mind that, as Sen. Francisco pointed out, wildlife officials in Kansas and four other states with significant prairie chicken populations already are working with federal officials on a voluntary mitigation plan. According to the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism, five oil and gas companies already have enrolled 1.5 million acres in a conservation plan developed by The Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies and state wildlife agencies in Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.

On another note, Francisco also advised fellow legislators not to vote on the bill until they have an official estimate on how much it would cost the state to defend its position against the federal government in court. Those estimates might well make pursuit of a voluntary agreement look more attractive.

Francisco is making a common-sense argument on the Lesser Prairie Chicken issue. State officials should put more effort into saving this native species and less into setting up a legal fight with the federal government.

Foreign policy requires more muscle These were the buzzwords President Obama hammered home in the foreign policy portion of his State of the Union address, as the core of his global strategy for the next three years.

“America must move off a permanent war footing,” he said. “I strongly believe our leadership and our security cannot depend on the military alone.” Instead, we have to build “the capacity of our foreign partners” and engage in “strong and principled diplomacy.”

What the president did not address were the prerequisites for making strong diplomacy, and partnerships, work.

No one will deny that America, and the U.S. military, are war weary. The president and the U.S. public are far more focused on domestic problems — no surprise that he devoted less than a third of his speech to foreign policy. When the president mentioned help for Syria in his speech, he elicited only one lonely handclap from his audience.

Moreover, there’s no appetite (nor should there be) for sending U.S. combat troops abroad to slay more dragons.

The most powerful moment of his address came when the president introduced badly injured Army Ranger Cory Remsburg, who was sitting in the gallery next to Michelle Obama; he had served 10 tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

In critical cases, Obama appears unwilling to provide the muscle required to make ‘strong diplomacy’ work.” of State John Kerry deserve praise for their investment in talks on Iran, Syria, and Israel-Palestine. Yet there was something incomplete about the case the president made for diplomacy and partnerships as the country’s main strategic tools.

With the Mideast sunk in civil war and uncertainty, and Chinese nationalism surging, America’s global role as a stabilizer is crucial.

Yet allies and antagonists around the world can be excused for confusion over Obama’s brand of diplomacy, and his support (or lack of it) for troubled allies.

In critical cases, Obama appears unwilling to provide the muscle required to make “strong diplomacy” work.

The president has done it right, so far, when it comes to Iran. Talks over Tehran’s

- meaning they will recognize the danger of continuing to support Assad.

Betting on such partners to resolve Syria’s dangerous war is indeed “magical thinking.”

So is outsourcing the arming of rebels to America’s “ally,” Saudi Arabia, which ensured that Islamists would get the lion’s share of the money and guns.

As for empowering partners, there, too, the president’s policy seems to assume results will come without putting muscle behind the effort. After our complete withdrawal from Iraq, Baghdad has sunk back into civil war fed by the return of al-Qaida.

The same may happen if we leave zero troops behind in Afghanistan, with a scary impact on nuclear-armed Pakistan next door.

So what worried me in the State of the Union was not Obama’s rightful rejection of more Mideast wars, or call for more reliance on partnerships and diplomacy.

It was the failure to admit that these are no panacea, and may require stronger backing than he’s been willing to provide.

This does not mean boots on the ground, but it may require more military help than drones or special forces. It will definitely require more attention from a president who has made abundantly clear that he wishes these conflicts just would go away.

OLD HOME TOWN

100

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 4, 1914: years “Another ancient ago landmark has been IN 1914 wiped off the townsite. The old hovel back of the city hall that served the purposes of a city jail for many seasons has passed away.

In the same site today stands a modern structure of brick and concrete to do the offices of a place of detention for evil doers....

Quietly, yes almost mysteriously, this new structure has sprung up out of the old.”

nuclear program, and a sixmonth interim accord, are probably his greatest foreign policy success so far.

But the reason negotiations with Iran got off the ground, as Obama clearly states, was “American diplomacy backed by pressure” — meaning harsh economic sanctions that got Iran to the table. Yet, when it comes to Syria — where talks on the civil war will affect the Iran talks — the president seems unwilling to exert the kind of pressure that might lead to diplomatic results.

As Kerry recognized early on, neither the Assad regime, nor its allies in Moscow and Tehran, will give an inch unless they believe their client, Bashar al-Assad, might lose the battle. But Obama refused to provide military aid to more moderate Syrian rebels in 2012, when Assad was on the defensive, and pulled back from his own “red line” that promised a brief, punitive air strike if Assad used chemical weapons.

In a recent, telling interview with David Remnick, of the New Yorker, the president said he believes greater U.S. involvement in arming the opposition would have made no difference. To think otherwise, he said, was “magical thinking.”

Instead, Obama and Kerry (who changed his tune, as per his boss’ position) are relying on diplomatic “partner” Russia, and potential partner Iran, to see the light

PUBLIC FORUM

Rental issues To the editor: I was surprised to learn that terminology and requirements to be included in the city’s rental inspection ordinance were still being debated.

Despite a 3-2 vote before Chirstmas approving the comprehensive version, there are, evidently, objections requiring this discussion before the ordinance is submitted for final approval.

It may surprise readers to learn that current city and Section 8 housing inspection codes don’t include penalties for any type of structural deterioration that is not a clear, direct threat to occupants’ physical safety. Older houses with large broken pieces of concrete and water seepage in foundations or flooring can be labeled “minor cracks/minor dampness,” requiring no action on the owner’s part. Interior cracking in the walls (due to shifts in the foundation), cracked and peeling paint on walls and cupboards, rusted metal drains, problems with deteriorating woodwork — all “minor” infractions, requiring no attention.

Why? Because all are considered “aesthetics,” unimportant to safety, health of occupants. Duct work? Furnace cleanings and regular maintenance? Not required. It’s very hard to enlist landlords’ understanding about the detrimental effects of dirt/dust buildup in heating and cooling systems.

What’s to debate? If property owners can’t afford to take care of their properties, if they fear the consequences of health and safety inspections, all the more reason to pass this ordinance now, in its unaltered form. Arguments about the program costs and privacy concerns are superficial compared to the point of transparency. Time to fix up, shine up and stop making excuses for your negligence. Your renters will

treat your properties with respect, and can keep your memos.”

Obama praise To the editor: Contrary to the Jan. 31 editorial on the State of the Union Address, I think that President Obama provided calm, reasoned and sensible solutions to our government gridlock. I disagree with the statement that this situation stems from the president’s “inability to forge respectful and workable relations with Republican leaders.” It is useless to “schmooze” with insincerity.

On Inauguration Day 2009, GOP leaders met with pollster Frank Luntz and decided to fake public bipartisanship, while vowing to block EVERY bipartisan proposal made by this president. This has gone on for five years, and the GOP has filibustered more bills than any other Congress in history. President Obama, however, has risen above their intransigence and has led our nation through crisis after crisis. He now proposes new jobs, more training, quality education for all, and a living wage for both men and women. He will work on these efforts with or without the help of Congress.

Will the American people stand by and let Congress shirk their responsibility for another three years?

For a good analysis of the SOTU address check out The American Prospect Magazine website, http://prospect.org/ in a Jan. 31 article by Steve Erickson entitled, “Reports of Obama’s Demise Have Been Greatly Exaggerated.” One sentence summed it up for me: “the Barack Obama that appeared before Congress a few nights ago is going for broke one more time, and you

Nonsense column

To the editor: Professor Krishtalka’s article (“Prof expects more nonsense in ’14), is a selffulfilling prophecy. Krishtalka believes that rejecting evolution is akin to a denial of gravity. Equating the two has no real parallel (nonsense).

He goes on to assert that the contribution of human beings to the level of carbon dioxide will have catastrophic results. “Without intervention, these effects will mushroom as global average temperatures rise 2.5 to 10 degrees in the next 100 years.” Without noting that humans contribute a very small percentage to the carbon dioxide level, we are told that without human intervention the rise of global temperatures will cause severe problems.

Krishtalka does not define evolution, though it explains all. Based on past performances, we know that Krishtalka speaks with certainty that no Intelligence is needed for all the intelligence in the universe. In other words, no intelligence is the reason for intelligence? No intelligence causes the information in DNA? No intelligence has caused the incredible workings within the cell?

Without a real Designer in the universe, can we know real knowledge? Krishtalka, then, is speaking nonsense. Without a Designer in the universe there is no standard for morality and nothing really matters, including all the issues that Krishtalka raises. Death is inevitable for all and then nothing. It is all nonsense so we have no need to bother. Nonsense is all that is needed when one is using scare tactics.

The Republican governor also said in a radio interview as he took questions for the first time in more than three weeks that he may have heard about the traffic tie-ups in Fort Lee when they were going on last September, but that it didn’t register with him as a major issue if he did.

He said that a news report several days after the lanes were reopened got his attention and that he asked staffers to look into it. The report indicated that the head of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey did not authorize the closings.

Sochi city hall orders killing of stray dogs Sochi, Russia — Thousands of stray dogs have been living amid the mud and rubble of Olympic construction sites, roaming the streets and snowy mountainsides and begging for scraps of food.

But as the games drew near, authorities have turned to a company to catch and kill the animals so they don’t bother Sochi’s new visitors — or even wander into an Olympic event.

Alexei Sorokin, director general of pest control firm Basya Services, told The Associated Press that his company had a contract to exterminate the animals throughout the Olympics, which open Friday.

Sorokin described his company as being involved in the “catching and disposing” of dogs, although he refused to specify how the dogs would be killed or say where they would take the carcasses.

The dogs have been causing numerous problems, Sorokin said Monday, including “biting children.”

Washington — Cuts to food stamps, continued subsidies to farmers and victories for animal rights advocates. The massive, five-year farm bill heading toward final passage this week has broad implications for just about every American, from the foods we eat to what we pay for them.

Support for farmers through the subsidies included in the legislation helps determine the price of food and what is available. And money for food stamps helps the neediest Americans who might otherwise go hungry.

The legislation could reach President Barack Obama this week. The House already has passed the bipartisan measure and the Senate was scheduled to pass the bill Tuesday after the chamber voted to move forward on the legislation Monday evening.

been under water for weeks.

Some villages have been cut off for a month, leaving residents who have been forced to make long detours or take boats to school, work or grocery shops frustrated and angry. Some blame government budget cuts and inept environmental bureaucracy. Others point to climate change. Some wonder if flood defenses for major cities like nearby Bristol or London will take precedence over protecting their rural hamlets.

Waco, Texas — The poor Baylor Bears. They have caught the Kansas University basketball team at the absolute worst time.

Coming off a road loss to Texas and sick and tired of hearing about the shellacking they took in Waco last March, the Jayhawks shouldn’t have any trouble summoning the energy necessary to play at their best and shift into blowout mode.

The circumstances dictate the same KU team that was not ready to play at 3 p.m. Saturday vs. Texas will come with its best shot today at 6 p.m.

Baylor is coming off an impressive victory in Stillwater, Okla., 76-70, against an Oklahoma State team getting subpar performances from Marcus Smart of late. That came at the right time for Kansas as well, making it easy for the Jayhawks to convince themselves the Bears’ 2-6 record in Big 12 play is irrelevant.

Andrew Wiggins won’t shoot 2-for-12 as he did against Texas because he won’t settle for jumpers as he did in Austin.

“He usually does,” Self said of Wiggins bouncing back from a seven-point game. “He’s had other rough games. I expect him to respond in a favorable way. Young kids, especially freshmen ... I don’t know of very many who don’t have off days now and then. He was coming off a twogame stint in which he was superb.”

When his shot’s not falling, Wiggins can find easier points crashing the offensive boards. As quick and long as he is, he can find even more easy points via that path.

“Defensive schemes can make you have off days too,” Self said. “He’ll bounce back. All good players do, and he’s certainly a good player.”

Wiggins leads Kansas in scoring (16.0 points a game), ranks second in free-throw percentage (.782) and third in rebounding (6.0 a game) and threepoint shooting (.375).

“I’m concerned about our team,” Self said. “I’m not concerned about individuals bouncing back.

They are good players. You don’t go from being a good player to not a good player because you don’t make baskets.”

Self steadies ship after loss as KU preps for Baylor

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Waco, Texas — Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self gave his Jayhawks a bit of a pep talk this week following their first loss in Big 12 Conference play.

“I told our team, ‘Guys, you weren’t going to run the table and might not lose just one, may not lose just two, who knows?”’ Self said Monday, referring to his frank message to the 2013-14 Jayhawks, a bit shell-shocked after Saturday’s 81-69 setback against Texas in Austin.

“When you play teams as good as we have in our league, losses are going to occur,” Self added after his Jayhawks fell to 16-5 overall and 7-1 in the conference and saw their lead over the second-place Longhorns shrink to one game.

“I tell our guys, ‘Hey, just try not to let one become two, two become three.’ We’ve been in situations in the league where we’ve had three to four losses, and the leader had two or three. We’ve needed a little help, and it seems to me in this league the help usually comes because people lose away from home. I don’t think it’s a panic-mode deal at all.

“I tell my guys, ‘Hey, other people still have to go to Aus-

tin, other people still have to go to Ames, other teams still have to go to Stillwater, so let’s just get better from this point forward, get momentum back and understand that 144, 13-5 would be an unbelievable record in this league.’”

Today, the Jayhawks continue their quest for a 10thstraight league title as they head to Waco, Texas, where Baylor (14-7, 2-6) awaits following Saturday’s surprising victory at Oklahoma State.

Tip is 6 p.m., in Ferrell Center.

“We last year started 7-0 and lost three in a row,” Self said, hoping to avoid consecutive losses tonight. “The year we won it in ’08, we lost three out of five. It’s certainly not the end of the earth. What you do is you put yourself in a situation where there’s less margin for error. Everything is still possible. Every goal

you have is still attainable.

You have to lower your neck and be better with the way our league goes.”

Texas and third-place Oklahoma (two games behind KU) still have to play games vs. KU in Allen Fieldhouse.

“I’d say I like where we are in the league race, obviously,” Self said. “From a negative, we performed below expectations Saturday against a really, really good Texas team. I think it’s going to be a great race. I think it’ll go down to the last week like they all do. Right now, I don’t feel great about us like I did before because the last taste in my mouth is negative. I do like how we play. I don’t like how we competed or with the energy we played with Saturday against Texas.”

He did like the team’s response at Sunday’s practice.

“We didn’t go long yesterday,” Self said Monday. “Even though you want to kill ’em, you can’t because we play Tuesday, so we didn’t go long.

Their attitudes are great.

Watching tape, we didn’t play well. We weren’t as prepared to play mentally as what we have been in the past. It seems like it had a different feel to it a little bit. I think our guys understand that.

“We were humbled, and that may end up being good for us.”

He believes intangibles cost the Jayhawks in their first league setback.

“We shot a poor percentage and everything (38.5), but the reason why we didn’t play well ... when you go on the road, you can’t rely on making shots all the time.

You have to make the other team uncomfortable and not play well. We let them beat us to 80 percent of the 50/50 balls. They were just quicker and more aggressive. We did nothing to make ’em play poorly,” Self said.

Baylor, behind the 20-point outing of Brady Heslip and 14-point performance of Rico Gathers, may have had its best game of the conference season in downing OSU, 76-70, Please see KU HOOPS, page 3B

Syracuse new No. 1; Kansas falls to No. 8 Syracuse, N.Y. — Syracuse’s reward for winning one of the best college basketball games of the season was a spot on top of the Associated Press Top 25 poll.

Combined with No. 1 Arizona’s first loss of the season last weekend, the Orange’s 91-89 overtime win over Duke on Saturday moved them up one spot to the top.

Syracuse (21-0) received all 65 first-place votes from the national media panel Monday, making the Orange the first unanimous No. 1 since Duke was for six weeks in 2010-11.

“We’re happy to be No. 1,” coach Jim Boeheim said Monday, hours before the Orange met Notre Dame. “Obviously, it’s taken a lot of hard work. It’s an honor. We’ll try to keep playing well.”

Syracuse, off to the best start in school history, is on top of the poll for the first time since a six-week run in 2011-12.

This is the 15th week alltime Syracuse has been No. 1.

Syracuse is the fourth team to hold the No. 1 ranking this season. Kentucky was on top for the preseason poll and one in the regular season while Michigan State was No. 1 for three weeks and Arizona, which lost to California hours after Syracuse beat Duke, for the last eight.

Arizona (21-1) and Syracuse, which were 1-2 for the last eight weeks, switched spots this week.

Florida, Wichita State, the only other unbeaten in Division I, and San Diego State remained third through fifth and were followed by Villanova, Cincinnati, Kansas, Michigan State and Michigan.

Duke, which also won at Pittsburgh last week, was 11th, a jump of six spots from last week’s poll.

No. 20 Virginia, No. 22 Connecticut and No. 23 Gonzaga returned to the rankings. They replaced Ohio State and Wisconsin, which both reached as high as No. 3 this season, and Massachusetts.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

UConn women No. 1 Connecticut stays No. 1 in the Associated Press poll Monday after cruising to two more victories.

The Huskies routed both Temple and Cincinnati to improve to 23-0 this season. UConn will host SMU and No. 4 Louisville this week with the game against the Cardinals on Sunday a rematch of last season’s national championship game.

Notre Dame, Stanford and Duke round out the first five teams. The Irish (21-0) also remain unbeaten after topping both Maryland and Duke on the road in the past week.

South Carolina, Baylor, Tennessee, Penn State and Maryland follow Duke.

Nebraska and Michigan State re-entered the Top 25 at No. 22 and 24. Florida State and Iowa State fell out.

OSU boots Clark Stillwater, Okla. — Oklahoma State freshman guard Stevie Clark has been kicked off the basketball team.

The school announced the move Monday before the 19th-ranked Cowboys hosted No. 16 Iowa State.

Clark has been arrested twice since the start of 2014.

He was arrested early Sunday on suspicion of outraging public decency, a spokesman for the Stillwater jail said.

He also was arrested on Jan. 1. An Edmond police spokesman said Clark was a passenger in a vehicle that was pulled over for a seatbelt violation. Police discovered marijuana in the vehicle and arrested Clark and the driver on possession of marijuana complaints.

Wichita (ap) — There aren’t a whole lot of statement games on Wichita State’s schedule this season.

Two of them are coming up in a matter of days.

The unbeaten Shockers are headed to Indiana State on Wednesday night, followed by a trip to Northern Iowa on Saturday. Those two teams are the closest contenders behind the fourth-ranked Shockers in the Missouri Valley race.

Perhaps more important, they’re arguably the two teams with the best chance of dealing Wichita State (23-0, 10-0) a defeat before the start of the conference tournament March 6.

“It’s the week that everyone’s been talking about and pointing at, arguably two of the best teams in our league, back to back, on the road,” Shockers coach Gregg Marshall said.

“I know they’ll be great atmospheres coming up and we’ll have to play really good basketball.”

They might want to avoid spotting their opponents a big early lead, too.

Wichita State allowed Evansville to race out to a 15-point first-half advantage on Saturday before rallying for an 81-67 victory. When thenNo. 1 Arizona lost to California later that night, it left only the Shockers and new No. 1 Syracuse as the nation’s undefeated teams.

To put that into perspective, the only other team from the Missouri Valley to win its first 23 games was Larry Bird’s Indiana State team, which went 33-0 before losing to Magic Johnson and Michigan State in the 1979 NCAA championship game.

The last team to enter the NCAA Tournament undefeated was UNLV in 1991.

“Nobody in this program feels like we’re at our best our reached our peak,” guard Fred VanVleet said. “Besides, we don’t worry about what the outside world is talking about.

We know every game in the Valley is a challenge.”

Poll voters have been largely unimpressed by the Shockers’ relatively weak schedule, which is why they remained No. 4 this week — behind the Wildcats, who dropped to sec-

GREGG MARSHALL HAS COACHED WICHITA STATE to a 23-0 overall record, 10-0 in the Missouri Valley, and a No. 4 national ranking. conference superiority. The Sycamores (17-5, 8-2) may be the closest thing, but even they were routed by Wichita State 68-48 when they met Jan. 18.

The Shockers beat the Panthers 67-53 in their first meeting this season.

“It’s something a lot of people have talked about, and I think we’re excited about it,” forward Ron Baker said of the two-game trip. “We’ll be prepared just like we always are.

No games are a given on the road. It’s going to be hostile and we’re looking forward to it.”

Even with a weak schedule, Wichita state is still firmly in the top 10 of the RPI, a key factor when the NCAA selection committee begins to seed teams. But their schedule also means that any slip along the way would likely dash the Shockers’ chances of earning a No. 1 seed.

Super Bowl sets another ratings record New York (ap) — For the fourth time in five years, the Super Bowl has set a record for the most-watched television event in U.S. history, drawing 111.5 million viewers, even though the Seattle Seahawks’ 43-8 victory over the Denver Broncos wasn’t really competitive.

The ratings record is further evidence of how live events are becoming dependable and valuable properties for broadcast television at a time the au-

ond, and Florida, which has already lost twice this season.

Wichita State has only one victory against a current Top 25 team, beating No. 13 Saint Louis before the Billikens were ranked. Otherwise, the Shockers have been pounding away on a schedule that offers very few chances to pick up marquee victories.

It’s not entirely the Shockers’ fault, of course. Marshall has found it increasingly tough to schedule games against highprofile opponents after their run to last year’s Final Four — many of those teams don’t want to risk losing to a socalled “mid-major” program.

Then there’s the fact that the Missouri Valley has weakened considerably this season.

Creighton proved to be the Shockers’ toughest rival, but they moved to the Big East and left few contenders for

“Big-event television is a great way for people to have a communal event, to talk about it socially and to talk about it as a group,” said Bill Wanger, executive vice president for programming and research at Fox Sports. “You see that in the Super Bowl numbers of the past four or five years. They’ve just gone up to a different level.”

The game also set standards for the most-streamed sports event online and, with 24.9 million tweets, the biggest U.S. live TV event on Twitter.

The Seattle victory eclipsed the 111.3 million viewers who watched the 2012 Super Bowl, according to the Nielsen company. Until last year’s game dipped slightly to 108.7 million, the Super Bowl had set ratings records for the previous three years in a row.

threes vs. KU on Jan. 20 — averages 11.3 ppg and hits 47.3 percent of his threes. l

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Saturday in Stillwater.

The Bears were playing without point guard Kenny Chery, who is a gametime decision tonight (foot injury).

“That was a helluva win they had. They played with poise,” Self said of the Bears, who fell at KU, 78-68, on Jan. 20.

“Doing it without Chery I thought made it even more impressive. That’s the Baylor team that is capable of beating anybody in the country. On Saturday, they may well could have beaten any team.

“They obviously are as talented as anybody in our league. I’m sure they’ll have their mojo back.

We’ll have to play a ton better (than against UT).”

Baylor coach Scott Drew said his team, which had hoped to contend for the league title, is primed for a big second half of league play.

“At the end of the day, if I could have gone back in time and done one thing different, I’d have made sure I’d prepared us for the physicality of league play,” said Drew, whose Bears went 12-1 nonconference. “I thought it took us a couple games to adjust to that. That’s something that will haunt me for many years, and I’ll make sure I don’t make that mistake again.”

BU, which outrebounded KU in Lawrence, 31-29, leads the league in rebound margin at +8.6. The Bears also lead the Big 12 in three-point field-goal percentage (40.1) and are third in the conference in scoring defense (67.8) and assists (15.1). Senior forward Cory Jefferson averages a team-leading 12.5 points and 8.4 boards a game. He had 16 points and six boards vs. KU in Allen. Heslip — he hit six

Injury update: Self said Conner Frankamp (knee bruise), Joel Embiid (knee sprain) and Tarik Black (ankle sprain) practiced Monday and will play tonight. l

This, that: KU leads the series, 20-4. The teams have split the last four meetings. ... KU is 8-2 in Ferrell Center. ... Self is 12-4 vs. Baylor, including 12-3 while at KU; Drew is 3-12 versus KU. l

Last year revisited: BU clobbered KU, 81-58, last season in Waco. “People talk about that. That doesn’t have anything to do with this year’s team just because they won there last year,” Self said.

“We’ll show them (Jayhawks) highlights of that, but I’m more concerned with how we’re prepared this year than what happened last year.” l

NBA talk with Seth: KU coach Bill Self was asked about perhaps coaching in the NBA someday, Monday on Seth Davis’ Yahoo Sports radio show.

“No, I haven’t gotten any offers. I’ve had a few people talk to me generically, but nothing from an interview standpoint at all,” Self said. “It really isn’t anything that I would say at this moment interests me much at all. I’ve said I could be interested, so people say I’m looking.

I’m not looking at all. I really believe I’ve got one of the better coaching jobs in America, pro or college, right here in Lawrence, Kansas. So it would take something really special, and my mind-set would have to change. Right now I’m really enjoying trying to get college kids better.

That, to me, is something we take great pride in and all enjoy doing.”

Wizards 100, Trail Blazers 90 Washington — The Washington Wizards moved above .500 for the first time in more than four years Monday night, accomplishing the feat on their eighth try this season by pulling away in the second half to beat Portland.

John Wall scored 22 points, and Trevor Ariza added 20 for the Wizards, who hadn’t had a winning record since beating the New Jersey Nets to improve to 2-1 on Halloween in 2009. Washington committed six turnovers while forcing 16 from Portland, and Wall and Co. didn’t look back after Kevin Seraphin led a 12-0 run that put the Wizards up by 17 early in the fourth quarter.

Damian Lillard scored 25 points, and LaMarcus Aldridge had 20 to lead the Trail Blazers, who have lost four straight road games.

COLLEGE HOOPS ROUNDUP

ISU wins in 3 OTs The Associated Press

Top 25 Men No. 16 Iowa St. 98, No. 19 Okla. St. 97, 3OT Stillwater, Okla. — DeAndre Kane had 26 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists to help Iowa State defeat Oklahoma State in triple overtime on Monday night.

The win was Iowa State’s first in Stillwater since March 2, 1998 — a span of 18 games.

Melvin Ejim had 22 points and 12 rebounds, Georges Niang scored 17 points, and Dustin Hogue added 10 points and 13 rebounds for the Cyclones (17-4, 5-4 Big 12), who have beaten six ranked teams this season.

Le’Bryan Nash scored 26 points, Marcus Smart had 20 points and eight assists, and Markel Brown added 19 points and 10 rebounds for Oklahoma State (16-6, 4-5), which lost its third in a row.

Oklahoma State was without guard Stevie Clark, who was kicked off the team Monday after his second arrest of the new year.

Monte Morris hit a three-pointer from the corner with 43 seconds left in the third overtime to put Iowa State up 9695.

No. 1 Syracuse 61, Notre Dame 55 Syracuse, N.Y. — Trevor Cooney scored a career-high 33 points, matching a school record with nine three-pointers, and top-ranked Syracuse beat Notre Dame on Monday night in another matchup of former Big East foes.

Syracuse (22-0, 9-0 Atlantic Coast Conference), which moved to No. 1 earlier in the day after its scintillating 9189 overtime victory over Duke on Saturday night, extended its school record for most consecutive wins to start a season. Notre Dame (12-11, 3-7) has lost seven of nine.

Two days after one of the most emotional wins in Boeheim’s 38 years as head coach, Syracuse played its first game as the nation’s top team since the 2011-12 season.

Two years ago, the Orange were unbeaten and ranked No. 1 when they went to South Bend, and Notre Dame upset them 67-58.

It didn’t happen again Monday night.

Daughter attempts to rebuild strained relationship Dear Annie: Last summer, I gave birth to twins who were several weeks early. Throughout the time they were in the hospital, we had family support.

My husband and I decided that for the first day home, we’d have no visitors. This enraged my mother. She felt we stole away her joy of being a grandma and that we were very rude. Since that day, I’ve received letters and emails stating what she thinks of me. In fact, many family members have turned their backs on us.

I’ve made attempts to fix things, but it only gets worse. This has been going on since August. What should I do? — Mom of Twins Dear Mom: Your family is nervy to expect parents of newborn twins to want

family in their home the first day out of the hospital. Once you were home, you needed time to adjust.

Your mother sounds like the type who could undermine your authority as a parent, so hang tough. Tell her that you and your husband needed a day to recuperate and some quiet time as a family, and you hoped they would respect that.

Add that they are welcome to visit, provided

Thoughtful stories on leaving home The gorgeous to behold “American Experience” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) presentation “The Amish Shunned” will make you think and break your heart. It’s simply not to be missed.

“Shunned” follows seven members of Amish communities from several states who have left close communities and centuries of tradition for a shot at life as individuals in modern society.

A l m o s t all of them flee like thieves in the night, so as not to depart in a confrontational manner. We meet a woman who left decades before and opens her home as a kind of halfway house in an underground railroad for Amish exiles. She takes in a shy 23-yearold woman who had already been made to feel like an “old maid” in her community.

Beautifully shot, “Shunned” is meditative in nature and remarkably even-handed. We learn that Amish families may shun those who leave the fold, but they still set a plate at the dinner table for departed loved ones. That welcoming gesture is a source of great guilt as well as a lure for those on the outside.

One of subjects profiled in “Shunned” will return by the film’s end. Another reflects on the delicate balance between community and conformity, comfort and control, declaring that for all of its ills, Amish life still connects members to “things that make us human.”

There, even a shunned Amish “has a name.” Looking out on his place in the modern “English” society, he declares, “Here, you’re nothing but a number.” l The theme of religion in society continues in the most unlikely place. Recently released from prison, members of the dissident Russian group Pussy Riot appear on “The Colbert Report” (10:30 p.m., Comedy Central).

The controversial performance that got them arrested was a protest about the collusion between the Russian Orthodox Church and the authoritarian rule of Russian strongman Vladimir Putin.

Tonight’s other highlights l A one-way ticket on a runaway train on “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” (7 p.m., ABC). l Spencer seems addled on “Pretty Little Liars” (7 p.m., ABC Family).

BIRTHDAYS Former Vice President Dan Quayle is 67. Rock singer Alice Cooper is 66. Actor Michael Beck is 65. Country singer Clint Black is 52. Singer Natalie Imbruglia is 39. Rock singer Gavin DeGraw is 37. Olympic gold medal gymnast Carly Patterson is 26.

they can stop creating a negative environment for the children.

Dear Annie: We are retired and consider ourselves to be hospitable. We maintain a guest bedroom, as well as two sofa beds for guests. In addition, we host friends and families for meals.

My wife struggles with an allergy to animal dander, and so we try to limit her exposure. She has undergone allergy shots and uses prescription nasal sprays. She can tolerate short visits with pets if she has tissues.

Recently, we hosted overnight stays of our adult children and their families, as well as our siblings. We said pets were welcome, but they’d have to sleep in the laundry room on the lower level. Unfortunately, these guests in-
