Private entities that receive public money from Douglas County would have to provide more disclosure about how they spend that money under a proposal being considered by the County Commission.

Commissioner Mike Gaughan outlined a package of reforms he wants to see enacted in the coming year.

S o m e would apply to items and services p u r chased directly Gaughan by county agencies.

But others would apply to outside agencies like the Douglas County Dental Clinic, Visiting Nurses Association and the Chamber of Commerce Economic Development Partnership that receive appropriations from the county to support their operations.

“This is something I’ve been in discussions with (county administrator) Craig (Weinaug) for about five years,” Gaughan said.

And while he did not

identify any specific problems that have occurred in the past, he said there needed to be more accountability and transparency in the process, “to make sure we’re getting what we pay for, and getting what we expected to get.”

For outside agencies that receive county funding, Gaughan is proposing that a written agreement be prepared in advance outlining how much support the county would provide as well as “oversight and monitoring requirements” the county may choose to impose.

Funding agreements could be canceled if the agency fails to comply with those requirements.

In addition, according to the proposal, “Each agency that receives an annual appropriation from Douglas County must maintain a copy of the records and files related to the appropriation, and indicate that such records and files are subject to the Kansas Open Records Act and may be disclosed by Douglas County.”

Commissioners Nancy Thellman and Jim Flory said they needed more time to study the proposed changes, and they will likely discuss them further at the commission’s next

meeting Feb. 19.

Weinaug said the commission would need to vote on changes to direct purchasing procedures used by county agencies, but changes in the budget and appropriation process could be made informally by consensus.

In other business, county commissioners: l Conducted a study session about a proposed $6.5 million master plan for improvements at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. l Authorized the Public Works Department and administrative staff to enter discussions about the possible sale of 4.78 acres near the new Public Works facility to the Kansas Department of Transportation to house a storage facility for sand and gravel and possibly a fuel station that could be used by both entities. l Postponed a study session to discuss possible development codes for wind energy projects because weather conditions made it impossible for some interested parties from out of town to attend.

Kansas senator raises more funds than GOP challenger Topeka — Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts reports raising more than twice as much money as his Republican primary challenger during the final three months of 2013.

Recently filed finance reports from each campaign also show that a key reason was the threeterm incumbent’s ability to attract contributions

from political action committees.

Roberts had net contributions of $614,000 during the period, compared with $238,000 for Leawood radiologist Milton Wolf. The challenger loaned his campaign an additional $30,000.

Roberts received $292,000 from non-party committees, compared

with $15,000 for Wolf.

Wolf spokesman Ben Hartman said Wednesday that Roberts’ reliance on PACs shows he’s a Washington insider. Roberts spokesman Leroy Towns called the comment sour grapes.

Roberts ended the year with more than $2.2 million in cash on hand, while Wolf had $179,000.

Inspectors are still investigating the cause of a building fire at the Westar power plant at 1250 N. 1800 Road, a company spokesman said.

Early Wednesday morning, Journal-World news partner Operation 100 reported that firefighters from several Douglas County township fire departments

were called to the plant shortly before 4 a.m. after reports of black smoke coming from a heavy equipment building.

As of about 4:45 p.m., Shane Batchelder, a Westar spokesman, said an official cause of the fire was still not available.

Batchelder said the fire did not spread beyond the building, which he said houses large equipment like bulldozers.

BRIEFLY Snow delays mail in and on rural routes. But to avoid being stranded in Baldwin City dangerously cold condi-

Stepping outside at about 11 a.m. Wednesday, Martha Wright weighed keeping her Baldwin City hair salon open for the day.

“I have a perm coming in at 11:30,” Wright said.

“Sometimes we’re busier in weather like this, when people can’t get to Lawrence or out of town.”

Wright said she would mull the decision while getting her mail across the street from her downtown shop. But there she found only locally delivered envelopes — not a good sign.

For some Baldwin City residents, Wednesday mail deliveries were late, if they arrived at all.

Baldwin City Postmaster Joan Welch said the morning mail delivery truck from Kansas City was unable to make it to Baldwin because of all the snow. She promised her delivery drivers would deliver to as many patrons as possible in town

tions, carriers would not attempt to deliver on rural roads that hadn’t been plowed, she added.

“When carriers have 400 deliveries, it really slows them down,” she said.

Board to review fitness study Topeka — The State Board of Education will review a recent study of Kansas elementary and middle school students linking fitness to academic success.

The results of the Kansas Fitness Information Tracking, or K-FIT, showed that students who were able to reach fitness goals in five areas scored significantly higher on math and reading tests than students who weren’t fit.

The state board will review the study on Feb. 11 at its monthly meeting in Topeka.

The study, funded through the Kansas Health

Foundation, compared the fitness results of 13,000 students in grades four through nine with those students’ test scores from the 2011-12 school year.

Another study is underway involving more than 56,000 students at 900 schools statewide.

New hearing set in suicide bomb case Wichita — A federal judge has reset a date to hear arguments over the government’s request to limit who can see some evidence in the case of an alleged suicide bomb plot at a Wichita airport.

U.S. District Judge Monti Belot on Tuesday scheduled a Feb. 11 hearing in the case of Terry L. Loewen, 58, an avionics technician facing terror-related charges.

Prosecutors are seeking an order restricting handling of evidence.

The government has requested a hearing under

the Classified Information Procedures Act, and also wants the case designated as “complex” to ease speedy trial concerns and give the parties more time to prepare for their cases.

Loewen has pleaded not guilty to charges including attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction and attempting to give material support to al-Qaida.

Shoplifting call turns into chase What began as a reported shoplifting Tuesday after a woman ate a popsicle in the frozen section of a Lawrence Dillons escalated to a foot chase when another girl later tried to elude police.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman, said police contacted the two after 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, at the Dillons, 3000 W. Sixth St. Police issued

a 20-year-old woman a notice to appear in court for theft of several boxes of a drink mix and for eating a popsicle out of a box in the frozen food section and returning the open box back in the freezer.

“Other than the popsicle,” McKinley said, “the stolen items were recovered.”

But McKinley said the woman wasn’t helpful in helping police identify the 16-year-old girl that was with her and that after officers could not identify the teen, the girl ran from officers while being questioned near the store’s entrance.

McKinley said the girl was caught near Sixth and Schwarz after a brief chase on foot, and police later determined that she was a runaway. She was taken into custody for theft, interference with the duties of an officer and for being a runaway, McKinley said.

14-inch snowfall ranks among top 3 in Lawrence

By Giles Bruce gbruce@ljworld.com

A day after one of the worst winter storms in the city’s history, Lawrence continues to dig out of the snow. With bitter cold weather predicted into tomorrow morning, many area school districts, including Lawrence, Eudora and Baldwin City, have canceled Thursday classes.

The National Weather Service in Topeka predicts near-record lows overnight of about minus 7 degrees, with winds 5 to 10 mph and wind chill readings as cold as 17 below. The high on Thursday is expected to be about 9 degrees.

Schools, Kansas University and local I think it’s governments a safe bet were closed to say this for a second is a top-five consecutive day while storm for city snow Lawrence, plow operators worked all-time.” first to clear major roads, —Chad Omitt, then residenmeterologist tial streets.

Thursday, Lawrence’s city hall, parks and recreational facilities, buses and trash collection services are scheduled to operate as usual. The state Legislature and state offices will also reopen Thursday. Gov. Sam Brownback scheduled a Thursday morning briefing on the storm.

The Lawrence area ended up getting the brunt of Tuesday’s storm, with snow accumulation as high as 14 inches.

That number would tie for the third-largest 24-hour snowfall in Lawrence history, according to readings taken at Kansas University.

“I think it’s a safe bet to say this is a top-five storm for Lawrence, all-time,” said National Weather Service meteorologist Chad Omitt.

He noted that the Interstate 70 corridor, from Abilene through Lawrence and into Kansas City, took the worst of this week’s storm, with that region accumulating 12 to 14 inches.

“

Topeka— Despite grousing from Gov. Sam Brownback and many legislators, Kansas will face some kind of federal action to protect the Lesser Prairie Chicken, according to the state’s top wildlife official.

Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism Secretary Robin Jennison told a legislative committee that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will either put in place a rangewide conservation plan to protect the bird, or list the Lesser Prairie Chicken as a threatened species Brownback under the Endangered Species Act. Fish and Wildlife has said the population of the Lesser Prairie Chicken has fallen draJennison matically as 90 percent of its former range has been taken due to extensive conversion of prairies to croplands.

“Kansas would be far better off with the rangewide plan than to have it listed,” Jennison said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

In a news release, the city of Lawrence reported all major roadways in Lawrence are clear as of Wednesday evening.

Crews are set to work overnight to clear residential roads, with the goal of clearing the majority by Thursday morning.

Mark Thiel, assistant director of public works, expects that every street in Lawrence will have been plowed at least once by noon Thursday.

Crews will begin work at midnight Thursday to remove the snow currently piled in the middle of downtown streets.

According to a road condition map from the Kansas Department of Transportation on Wednesday evening, several highways in the Lawrence area remain p a r tially We moved or comto a loft pletely to get out s n o w of shoveling packed, includthe driveway, i n g Kansas and here I igham.

—Pat Shea, T h e Lawrence resident city is already preparing for what it expects is another snowstorm that will begin Friday night. The forecast the city has received is a 40 percent chance of 1 inch to 3 inches of snow beginning Friday night into Saturday morning.

“Because of the timing of this event, we’ll move right into equipment repairs and getting some guys some sleep so they are ready to go on Friday night,” Thiel said.

LAWRENCE RESIDENT JEREMY STACY WAITS FOR A RIDE TO WORK ALONG SIXTH STREET on Wednesday morning. The area saw around 14 inches of snow accumulate over 24 hours.

Thiel said he is pleased with how snow removal operations are progressing.

“It just takes time to get that amount of snow off the streets,” Thiel said.

Don’t expect the snow to melt soon. Temperatures are expected to remain below freezing for at least the next seven days. There’s also a chance of more snow falling on Friday, Saturday and Tuesday. “Winter’s here to stay,” Omitt said.

No major auto accidents have been reported during the snow.

As of 8:30 p.m., AAA Kansas reported it had received 850 calls for service statewide since the storm began, 49 of them from the Lawrence area. About a third of calls were from motorists stuck in snow.

Laurie Powell, a Lawrence Police Department spokesperson, said at least one car accident was attributable to road conditions Wednesday, although no injuries were involved.

One positive from the harsh storm is that it brought the region some much-needed moisture, with the snow deliver-

ing an estimated inch of liquid.

“We were getting pretty dry,” said Eudora farmer Danny Abel.

“Any moisture is going to help the spring crops.”

The snow also provides cover for winter wheat, protecting it from extreme weather. However, much of the area wheat didn’t sprout before the first freeze, due in part to a late planting season, Abel said.

Snow day Carlos Yañez, a postdoc at the KU Natural History Museum, went out to take pictures of a snow-covered KU campus Wednesday morning. Yañez, who is from Yucatán, Mexico, and moved to Lawrence recently, said he has seen snow only on hiking and rock-climbing trips. This was the first time he had snow in a city he lived in.

Pat Shea was out shoveling the walkway behind the Phoenix Gallery, 825 Massachusetts St., early Wednesday. His wife manages the gallery, and they live in a loft in the same building. “We moved to a loft to get out of shoveling the driveway, and

And while Jennison has remained neutral on the bill that would attempt to nullify possible federal action on the Lesser Prairie Chicken, he told legislators that avoiding all federal action on the bird “just

Rowan Green, a supervisor for Lawrence Parks and Recreation, was out with his crew Wednesday morning shoveling sidewalks in front of the Carnegie Building, 200 W. Ninth St. Green said parks department employees have been working in 12-hour shifts nonstop shoveling city sidewalks and parking lots while trying to stay warm.

“When temperatures are like this, we try and get in the trucks and warm up every once in a while,” he said.

The Lawrence school district will now have used four snow days this year. Julie Boyle, the district spokesperson, said the district had enough minutes in the calendar to absorb the first one, on Jan. 6.

The schools then used their inclement weather make-up day to compensate for the second one, on Feb. 4.

Because Lawrence schools built in a makeup day into its calendar and is using it, the state “forgives” the district of its third snow day, Feb. 4, Boyle said.

The school board will need to decide how to make up additional lost instructional time to meet state requirements of 1,116 hours, Boyle said.

Iwig said the dairy had received several donations through its website, iloveiwig.com, and was trying to gather enough money to purchase a new boiler, or at least a used one. He said he’s hopeful he can have the equipment installed and be bottling again in a week.

In the meantime, Iwig is selling his cows’ milk in bulk. It’s being trucked to Fayetteville, Ark., (he thinks), where it will be mixed with milk from other dairies, pasteurized, bottled or made into other dairy products and

trucked out again to grocery stores — a typical large-operation process.

In its normal glassbottled state, Iwig milk is raised, processed and bottled on site and sold in refundable glass bottles only at the dairy and its Topeka and Lawrence stores. It’s also vat-pasteurized, a rarely used low-temperature process proponents say is the next best thing to raw milk for taste and nutrition.

The multigeneration family dairy has been struggling financially for several years. Iwig continues to seek investors to reorganize the business and pay off debts.

Going Out A guide to what’s happening in Lawrence

The mother lode Vicki Lawrence, ‘Mama’ to perform at the Oread

By Nadia Imafidon nimafidon@ljworld.com

V

icki Lawrence never saw herself in show business. “I honestly thought I wanted to study dental hygiene, learn to clean teeth, marry a rich dentist and hang it up,� Lawrence says. “That’s really what I thought I was going to do.�

The Emmy Award-winning actress, comedian and singer was plucked out of senior year in high school to play comedian Carol Burnett’s daughter in her legendary self-named variety TV show. Her career continued to soar with the spinoff series “Mama’s Family,� a gold record for hit single “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia,� her own talk show, and a number of other roles in several other shows. She didn’t see stardom coming. “And it’s funny because I grew up in such close proximity to Hollywood that it never ever occurred to me to pursue it as a career,� she says. “I sort of feel like showbiz found me; I didn’t really find it.�

Now she’s traveling across the country for her cabaret-style two-woman production; both parts played by Lawrence, of course. “Vicki Lawrence and Mama: A Two-Woman� will be at 8:30 p.m. Feb. 14 at The Oread, 1200 Oread Ave. Lawrence, in the role of Thelma “Mama� Harper in “Mama’s Family� from 1983 to 1990 starting at the ripe old age of 24, won the hearts of Americans, but not because Mama is a charming character.

Mama is the gruff, opinionated family member we don’t welcome with open arms at reunions, but merely tolerate. “I always think of Mama like Archie Bunker,� Lawrence says. “We all know that person, and we all have one in our lives. And nobody fesses up to being that person so nobody takes it personally. But everybody knows her. She is sitting at everybody’s Thanksgiving table.�

Her close friends and “Carol Burnett Show� alumni Harvey Korman and Tim Conway have been touring as a comedy act for years, and they encouraged Lawrence to do the same. She starting writing the production on the heels of 9/11, knowing that she needed to bring Mama to the modern age to make people laugh for 90 minutes out of their day. “I want to take them away from ev-

Smoking ‘em out

Analysis differs on health care law

Gene J. Puskar/AP File Photo

IN THIS JULY 17, 2013 FILE PHOTO, MARLBORO CIGARETTES ARE ON DISPLAY in a CVS store in Pittsburgh. The nation’s second-largest drugstore chain says it will phase out cigarettes, cigars and chewing tobacco by Oct. 1 as it continues to focus more on health care.

CVS to stop tobacco sales

to pull cigarettes and other tobacco products from its stores could ripple beyond the nation’s second-largest drugstore chain.

The move, which drew praise from President Barack Obama, doctors and antismoking groups when it was announced on Wednesday, puts pressure on other retailers to stop selling tobacco from their shelves as well.

But first they have to overcome their addiction to a

product that attracts customers.

“They don’t make much money on tobacco, but it does draw people into the store,” said Craig R. Johnson, president of the retail consultancy Customer Growth Partners.

tionwide as it shifts toward being more of a health care provider. CVS, like other drugstore chains, have been adding in-store clinics and expanding their health care offerings. They’ve also been expanding the focus of some clinics to include helping people manage chronic illnesses like high blood pressure and diabetes.

Washington (ap) — New estimates that President Barack Obama’s health care law will encourage millions of Americans to leave the workforce or reduce their work hours have touched off an I-toldObama you-so chorus from Republicans, who’ve claimed all along that the law will kill jobs. But a study says some aren’t telling it straight.

The analysis by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office predicts the

law will give several million people an opportunity to work less or not at all, because they won’t be stuck in jobs just for the sake of keeping the health insurance they get from employers. To some Republicans, that amounts to “wreaking havoc on working families,” ‘‘dire consequences for workers” and a shower of pink slips across the land — conclusions unsupported by the report.

The study estimates that the workforce will be reduced by the equivalent of 2.3 million full-time workers by 2021 as people choose to leave it. More would take early retirement, work fewer

hours or otherwise rearrange their work-home balance to take advantage of new subsidies for health insurance and new markets for individual policies that don’t depend on having a job.

In a key point overlooked in the GOP response, the report says: “The estimated reduction stems almost entirely from a net decline in the amount of labor that workers choose to supply, rather than from a net drop in businesses’ demand for labor.”

In other words, workers aren’t being laid off. They are taking themselves out of the workforce, in many cases opening job opportunities for others.

Read Across Lawrence kicks off Sunday with book giveaway, author talk Staff Reports

Lawrence Public Library is kicking off a series of events discussing this year’s Read Across Lawrence selection, “Housekeeping” by Marilynne Robinson, that end March 6 with a lecture

and book signing with the Pulitzer Prize-winning author.

Shane J. Lopez, author of “Making Hope Happen” and leading researcher on hope, will give a talk at the library to kick off the community read of “Housekeeping” at 4 p.m. Sun-

day. Lopez collaborates with scholars around the world to research the links between hope, strengths development, academic success, and overall well-being. Copies of the book will be distributed, and then given away at the library information desk. The li-

brary will also have copies of the books available for checkout.

“Housekeeping” is about loss, hope, love and family ties as it follows the narrative of two sisters raised in isolated Fingerbone, Idaho, where they lost both their mother and grandfather in

tragic deaths. The sisters have had a haphazard upbringing, first under the care of their competent grandmother, then their comical aunts and finally their eccentric, remote Aunt Sylvie. This is the story of their struggle toward adulthood granted the lessons of loss and

survival they have been forced to learn throughout an unconventional lifestyle.

Vicki is the opener for Mama, sharing all of the behind the scenes cuts of “Carol Burnett Show” and giving an autobiographical look at her serendipitous life. Her early decision to go into television was a gamble.

She was on a summer tour with the Young Americans singing group when she had told the director she wanted to audition.

“He said, ‘Really, what are the odds of this going anywhere, and if you drop out of the tour, I’m not going to put you back in when it doesn’t pan out,’” Lawrence says. “So at the time it was a really difficult decision.”

While she will be addressing the recent triumphs of getting older, singing the hit song written by her ex-husband (“the only good thing to come out of that marriage,” she says) and answering any questions the crowd has for her, the first half is far from

Shiner’s Punch at Famous Dave’s, 4931 W. Sixth St.

SHINER’S PUNCH “Get your ‘shine on” with Famous Dave’s new selection of moonshine beverages.

Known as the “black market liquor” from the Prohibition era, produced in still houses in the remote Southern hills, corn whiskey was transported over back-country roads at night by the light of the moon. Earning its official name as moonshine, it’s also been called white lightning, hooch, Mountain Dew, tiger’s sweat, hillbilly pop, catdaddy and donkey punch, to name a few.

Not nearly as scandalous (or illegal), you can find moonshine in fruity beverages like Shiner’s Punch, which mixes Firefly Cherry moonshine, Jim Beam bourbon, pineapple juice and maple brown sugar molasses.

It’s served in a mason jar with chunks of pineapple and a large pineapple leaf to mix the high-proof distilled spirits.

It’s a little odd of a time of year to start shining, as this drink is usually reserved for

warm summer days spent on a porch. But with wishful thinking (and a couple of these drinks) maybe summer will come early this year.

The hard stuff: Firefly Cherry moonshine, Jim Beam bourbon Where it’s served: Famous Dave’s, 4931 W. Sixth St. What it costs: $6.99 plus tax Other libations at this location: Other moonshine varieties include Fire-n-Ice tea, Stillhouse sangria and the In-famous margarita.

Along with a few bottled and draft beer options, Famous Dave’s also offers Devil’s Spit Bloody Mary (the restaurant’s spiciest barbecue sauce is called Devil’s Spit), Smokin’ Tea, Sweet Mama’s Punch and Memphis Mai Tai. — Drink up. Stay classy.

Don’t forget to tip your bartender. And let us know if you want to suggest a libation for this feature — email nimafidon@ljworld.com or Tweet her at Twitter.com/ nadia_imafidon. Cheers.

Opinion

Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com l Thursday, February 6, 2014

EDITORIALS

Enforcement issue Problems with a lighting plan at Rock Chalk Park may point to a broader enforcement issue for the city.

A

requirement that isn’t enforced really amounts to no requirement at all. It’s troubling that Lawrence city commissioners aren’t willing to acknowledge that.

It’s nonsensical for Commissioner Bob Schumm to say that the fact that the developers of Rock Chalk Park were not required to submit an approved lighting plan before receiving their building permit doesn’t indicate the city has a problem enforcing its codes.

“Generally, I think we have the system in place we need,” he said. “But this one got missed.”

It doesn’t matter if the system is “in place,” if it isn’t properly enforced — not just “generally” but consistently and universally.

It’s not like Rock Chalk Park is a small project that simply slipped through the cracks. It is a $30 million project that has been the subject of considerable consternation because of its unorthodox bidding process and the fact that its developer has a history of going ahead with projects and asking permission later for work that deviates from city codes. It shouldn’t be any surprise to commissioners that the project is drawing an unusual amount of scrutiny and that local taxpayers expect the city to hold the developer to the letter of his agreement and not allow him to cut any corners.

According to the attorney representing a neighboring property owner, the Rock Chalk Park development group, led by Thomas Fritzel, still hasn’t submitted a valid photometric plan to the city. Instead of a plan prepared by a licensed engineer, the developers have submitted mostly materials from the manufacturer of the lights — which already have been installed. Schumm said the planning department was researching whether that satisfied the city’s code.

They don’t know? What’s the precedent? Have they accepted literature from the manufacturer instead of a lighting plan from an engineer for other developments? If not, why would they accept it here?

The city of Lawrence often is criticized for setting requirements that make development too difficult. In many cases, people who are trying to do projects complain that city officials are inconsistent or unclear in spelling out the requirements that must be met.

Sometimes —perhaps in this case —that might work to a developer’s advantage but, many times, it does not. Either way, it’s a problem for the city about which commissioners and city administrators should be more concerned.

Florida race exposes election flaws Clearwater, Fla. — Because it is this year’s first federal election, attention must be paid to the March 11 voting to fill the congressional seat vacated by the death in October of Florida Republican C.W. “Bill” Young, who served in Congress 43 years.

If Democrat Alex Sink wins, the significance will be minimal because she enjoys multiple advantages. Hence if Republican David Jolly prevails, Republicans will construe this as evidence that Barack Obama has become an anvil in the saddle of every Democratic candidate.

Matters are, however, murky. Tip O’Neill’s axiom that “all politics is local” has been rendered anachronistic by the national government that liberals such as O’Neill created. Today’s administrative state touches everyone everywhere, so all politics is partly national. Politics in Florida’s 13th Congressional District today concerns the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).

Obama carried this Gulf Coast district, a one-county constituency near Tampa, by 8.2 points in 2008 and 5.6 in 2012. Although Sink never lived in the district until very recently, she has almost 100 percent name recognition here because she has run statewide, almost winning the governorship in 2010 when she carried the county by 5.7 points. Between 2007 and 2011, she was Florida’s chief financial officer.

George Will

georgewill@washpost.com

“

Instead of a community deliberation culminating in a shared day of decision, an election like the one here is diffuse and inferior.”

After Young died, the national and state Democratic parties moved with more dispatch than seemliness. With a robust disregard for traditional niceties, they moved Sink into the 13th District.

Her real home in another county is, Jolly says — he exaggerates — closer to Disney World than to this district’s beaches. They also prevented a primary challenge from anyone who really lives here, thereby allowing Jolly to say national Democrats decided no local Democrat was qualified to represent the locals.

While she rented an apartment and began raising money, Jolly fought a nine-week primary race, from which he emerged on Jan. 14 financially depleted. He worked for Young for many years, which

helps his resume, but then became a Washington lobbyist, which does not. He thinks it should, saying mordantly that politics “is the one industry in which experience and qualifications count against you.”

He notes that whoever wins next month will have to run again in November and if he is running then, the Republican House leadership will want to give him some plums beneficial to his district — perhaps assignment to committees to protect seniors and veterans.

This is a purple but not a polarized district, with 37 percent Democrat and 36 percent Republican. Although the district gave the world the first Hooters restaurant, the district is unusually elderly, white and disapproving of Obamacare. It also is smoldering about the flood insurance program.

The NFIP is yet another entitlement program that is proving to be more durable, and more emblematic of modern America, than Mount Rushmore. The federal government has long subsidized insurance for homeowners who live in coastal areas or flood plains.

This entitlement, covering about 5.5 million of America’s 122 million housing units, is necessary because otherwise people would be required to pay the costs of the risks they choose to run for living where they are pleased to live. The NFIP is another illustration of the

entitlement state’s upward distribution of benefits.

Recent attempts to reform the NFIP — to end subsidized rates for 1.1 million properties and to change rates based on improved risk assessments — threaten to raise by thousands of dollars the annual insurance costs of some property owners here. Both Sink and Jolly are competitively indignant. But the U.S. Senate, an unsleeping defender of entitlements benefiting the privileged (witness the new farm bill), has recently derailed reform.

Sink will benefit from the national trend allowing early voting to obliterate Election Day. Any Floridian who has ever requested an absentee ballot henceforth gets one automatically. Seventy-seven percent of the Republican primary votes here were cast by mail in the Jan. 14 primary, and absentee ballots will be mailed on Feb. 7. Furthermore, early voting at polling places begins March 1, so many — perhaps most — votes will be cast before Jolly has raised much of the money necessary to communicate his message.

Instead of a community deliberation culminating in a shared day of decision, an election like the one here is diffuse and inferior. If Sink wins, Republicans nationally can shrug; if Jolly wins, Democrats should tremble.

But no matter who wins, the district loses because it has lost Election Day. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

OLD HOME TOWN

100

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 6, 1914: years “An inch or more ago of snow, and a IN 1914 stinging high north wind coming out of the northwest served to make this morning resemble genuine winter time. Most of the thermometers down town this morning registered as low as 4 degrees, the lowest point that has been reached this year. The wind was whirling the snow down the streets, filling the faces of the pedestrians and almost sweeping them from their feet. It was a genuine gale of coldness coming right out of Winter’s stronghold.”

Music loses role as agent of change It’s an odd thing.

Sometimes, when I speak before high school or college students, someone in the audience, knowing I began my professional life as a pop music critic, will ask what I think of music today. I always demur that I don’t listen to a lot of it, but that most of what I do hear kind of, well ... bores me. While there are exceptions — i.e., Adele — much of it feels corporate, cold, plastic, image-driven, less reflective of talent than tech, more programmed than played.

Of course, the old folks are not supposed to get the young folks’ music. That’s the whole point of the young folks’ music.

But here’s the odd part: After I’ve said all this, as I’m bracing to take my lumps for being antique and out of touch, the young people — many of them, anyway — tell me I’m right. They agree with me. That’s not supposed to happen and it says something that it does.

What it says is worth pondering as we commemorate a milestone in popular music and culture. On Friday, it will be 50 years since the Beatles landed in New York City.

They would appear on “The Ed Sullivan Show” — in 1964 Sullivan was what passed for music television — over three

successive Sundays, twice from New York, once from the Deauville Hotel in Miami Beach. They also squeezed in a concert in Washington.

There is a great photo that captures the pandemonium of that era: It shows a hapless New York City cop carrying some girl who just fell out, limbs splayed, knocked senseless by proximity to the “lads from Liverpool.” John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr brought their bright

harmonies, jangling guitars, long-for-1964 hair and cheeky irreverence to America, and American girls responded in shrieks while suddenlyignored American boys practiced looking indifferent, as if they were cinderblocks who could stand, unmoved and unchanged, by the wave now washing over them.

But they were not cinderblocks, they were sandcastles. We all were. The Beatles rode the forefront of a wave that would reshape everything — music, fashion, culture, politics — and neither America nor the world would ever be the same.

It is hard to imagine that Justin Bieber or Chris Brown, extraordinarily popular as they are, gives anyone that finger-stuck-in-a-wall-socket shock of something new, that lunar landing sense of discovery, that fizzy realization that you have found something made for you, about you, definitive of you and your times — not them and theirs. Has that happened since hip-hop hit middle age? Hasn’t the culture become repetitive and pro forma, contenting itself with staged provocations (Madonna kissing Britney, Kanye mugging Taylor) that pretend to portend Something New Happening, but really do not? Like they’re all

just trying too hard?

It’s too bad. That moment of Something New Happening is the birthright of every generation. To hear young people agree with some aging Boomer about their music is to feel they have been cheated. Apparently, some of them know it. They’re the ones telling me I’m right and listening to Beatles songs on their phones. When I was that age, I’d have put my ears out rather than listen to Nat King Cole.

Because popular music is about breaking away from the staid normalcy of what came before. But maybe in an era where mom has tattoos and dad has a boyfriend, there’s nothing left to break away from. That’s pop culture’s victory and burden, the unseen thing Justin Bieber and Rihanna struggle against.

They ply their trade in a day when change has a tour jacket and a corporate sponsor. But as that girl passed out in a policeman’s arms could tell you: It’s just not the same. Fifty years ago, change stepped off a jet at JFK and sent the country into an uproar. We have gained much — but lost a few things, too — on the long and winding road since then.

mounting international pressure, announced that the government soldiers would soon be paid after five months without wages. But after she left, the soldiers spotted a suspected former member of the Seleka rebellion that had overthrown the government. His name was Idriss, and he was standing among them. They accused him of being an infiltrator, there to spy for Seleka. Out came the first knife.

The very men expected to protect civilians used knives, bricks and their own feet to attack the man. Troops from the tiny African nation of Burundi surrounded the wounded man to protect him from the growing crowd. He lay wounded on his back and still alive for about five minutes.

Red Light museum opens in Amsterdam Amsterdam— On any given evening, thousands of tourists stroll down the narrow canal-side streets of Amsterdam’s famed Red Light District, gawking at ladies in lingerie who work behind windows, making a living selling sex for money.

Now a small educational museum is opening Thursday in the heart of the district to show reality from the other side of the glass.

Organizer Melcher de Wind says the Red Light Secrets museum is for those who want to learn more about how the area works without actually visiting a prostitute. It is located in a former brothel.

The museum makes only a passing attempt to document the history of prostitution tolerance in Amsterdam — starting from the 16th century.

The museum focuses on the era since 2000, when prostitution became legal in the Netherlands. Since then the city has been struggling — it says with some success — to eradicate pimps and human trafficking.

National signing day smooth for KU football mtait@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Vets key to KU’s tourney success In many ways, the most significant development to come out of the Kansas University basketball team’s 69-52 victory Tuesday at Baylor involved the strong play of nonfreshmen.

Looking ahead to the NCAA Tournament, KU’s heavy reliance on freshmen makes forecasting its postseason prospects a little shaky. You never know how a freshman will react when confronted with new circumstances.

Last season, for example, Ben McLemore shot 2 of 14 overall and 0 for 8 from three-point territory in the two NCAA Tournament games in Sprint Center.

He exploded for 20 points against Michigan, a game made possible by seniors performing so well against North Carolina.

In 2005-2006, freshmen scored 47 percent of the Jayhawks’ points and were bounced by Bradley in the first round.

So far this season, freshmen have accounted for 60 percent of KU’s scoring.

They usually face man-toman defenses, which keeps them in their comfort zones.

Baylor played a 2-3 zone and, aside from a sevenpoint outburst in 93 seconds from freshman Andrew Wiggins, KU’s three top players in the game were junior Naadir Tharpe, sophomore Perry Ellis and senior Tarik Black. Non-freshman accounted for two-thirds of KU’s scoring in the defensedriven victory.

Kentucky proved in 2012 it’s possible to win a national title with the majority of a team’s points coming from freshmen. Probably because the first two picks in the NBA draft were freshmen Anthony Davis and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, many forget that three of the top six scorers on that team were sophomores Doron Lamb and Terrence Jones and senior Darius Miller.

Freshmen scored 53 percent of the points for the Wildcats that year.

Comparisons to this season’s Kentucky squad and that one don’t ring true because the Wildcats rely on freshmen for 80 percent of their scoring this season.

That’s asking a lot of frosh.

KU’s freshmen carry a heavy load too, but they get more support from veterans than do Kentucky’s rookies.

“

January was a big month and they finished strong. And they did it with upper-end talent from Kansas University foot- the state of Texas.”

By Matt Tait

ball coach Charlie Weis put the finishing touches on KU’s 2014 recruiting class Wednesday when he received 20 letters of intent in the first several hours of national signing day.

Things went so smoothly for the Jayhawks that all letters were signed, faxed and received by just after noon, leaving very little reason to worry that anything would go awry.

“I’m very pleased with this recruiting class,” Weis said on Wednesday afternoon. “Our staff had to show good patience, and, through hard work, we

— Recruiting analyst Jon Kirby of JayhawkSlant.com, on Kansas football’s 2014 signing class filled almost every pressing need.”

Unlike last year, when Weis brought in more than 20 junior-college prospects, this year’s class leans more heavily toward younger players, with juco transfers sprinkled in to fill immediate needs and add depth.

“January was a big month and they finished strong,” said JayhawkSlant.com’s Jon Kirby, who has covered Kansas recruiting for more

than a decade. “And they did it with upper-end talent from the state of Texas.”

Weis’ third class at KU includes 15 high school prospects, eight junior-college transfers and Div. I transfers T.J. Millweard (UCLA) and Kent Taylor (Florida).

Its national ranks — No. 55 according to both Rivals. com and 247Sports.com — are slightly down from last

Stillwater, Okla. — Kansas University senior guard CeCe Harper missed a last-seconds layup to tie the game against Oklahoma State on Wednesday night at Gallagher-Iba Arena, giving the No. 12 Cowgirls a 76-74 victory over the Jayhawks.

Ten seconds earlier, Harper pulled KU within a point on an and-one layup and foul shot against OSU’s Tiffany Bias. Kansas immediately fouled to force freethrows by Brittney Martin, who missed the first and made the second. Harper raced up the court and put up a shot with two seconds left, and time expired as the teams tried to corral the rebound.

The Jayhawks (11-12 overall, 4-7 Big 12) trailed, 37-34, at halftime before outscoring the Cowgirls (19-3, 8-3) in the second half. Fresh off a career-high 34 points against Texas Tech on Saturday, junior forward Chelsea Gardner led KU with 25 points, 11 rebounds, four steals and three blocks.

Harper finished with 15 points, seven assists and five rebounds.

Center LaShawn Jones led OSU with 17 points and seven rebounds.

Kansas will face Oklahoma at 2 p.m. Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse. l

NFL, not NBA, may call for Black

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Chargers tight end deluxe Antonio Gates played basketball at Kent State.

Black, who averages 3.7 points and 2.7 boards while logging 10.3 minutes per game, scored six points and grabbed nine rebounds while playing 23 minutes in Tuesday’s 69-52 victory at Baylor.

He was pivotal on a night Joel Embiid suffered from foul problems.

“He gave us a beastly presence when we needed one, especially with (Rico) Gathers in the game,” Self said of Black.

“He’s getting more comfortable even though he hasn’t played the last couple weeks because of his (sprained) ankle. You can just tell his confidence is starting to rise.”

Black said he’s close to 100 percent healed from the ankle injury he suffered against Baylor on Jan. 20 in Allen Fieldhouse.

“It’s doing a lot better, obviously,” Black said.

“I’m getting back on it,

year and put KU’s class in the bottom half of the Big 12 Conference. Despite those rankings, Kirby said the Jayhawks hauled in a solid group.

“When you look back at Kansas’ numbers in the past, based on the successful years they’ve had, the classes that ranked 45-55 were the classes that won the most,” Kirby said. “It comes down to development.”

Because KU is able to count one of the transfers back toward the Class of 2013, Weis and company have one spot remaining in this year’s class. That spot likely will remain vacant unless an offensive tackle or wide receiver — someone who could push to become a starter — became available.

In all, the Class of 2014 includes prospects from nine different states as well as Canada. Texas led the way by delivering 11 new Jayhawks, and Kansas added two in Free State High’s Joe Dineen

Of his nine boards Tuesday, he said: “As a big man, that’s your job.

We have a lot of offensive weapons. Defense is obviously most important.

When the shot goes up, it’s important for us big men to get the rebound.

We put a lot of emphasis on that.” l Injuries: KU red-shirt freshman center Landen Lucas reported on Twitter that he had an MRI on Wednesday. Self said Lucas’ back has been sore, but he shouldn’t miss any practice time. Self said Lucas was available to play against Baylor. ...

and (he) was not effective, so there’s a lot of things he has to do to improve, too.

“That (ESPN) story was absolutely nothing.

If you are not definite, of course you are considering staying. He could also say he’s considering leaving, because if he is considering leaving, it’s not definite either.” l Next year looking good: KU thus far has signed big man Cliff Alexander and wing Kelly Oubre in recruiting.

“They are as good of prospects as we have in America. They will come in and impact it (program),” Self said. “We always think about next year from a recruiting standpoint, but I believe this ... if things fall right, I think we’ll be better next year than we are this year. That’s exciting to me because we have so many young kids.” l Halfcourt heroics: Andrew Wiggins hit a halfcourt shot to beat the buzzer on Tuesday, leading one to wonder if KU practices the play. “The ones on our team that are best at it ... (Conner) Frankamp is really good at it. Evan Manning, Niko (Roberts) and Tyler (Self) are actually pretty good at it. I don’t know if you’d consider it practicing it. They are just jacking around, (but) they’re pretty good at knocking in the long one,” Self said.

Seabury Academy canceled its basketball doubleheader scheduled for today against Barstow Academy. Seabury will make up its doubleheader against Kansas City Christian on Saturday. The girls basketball teams will play at 5:30 p.m. and the boys will start at 7.

KU pole vaulter wins Big 12 honor Kansas University senior pole vaulter Natalia Bartnovskaya earned the KU women’s track and field team’s third-straight Big 12 Athlete of the Week award, the conference announced Wednesday.

Bartnovskaya set the second-highest mark in the NCAA this season on Friday at the Varsity Apartment Invitational in Wichita.

She is the third Jayhawk to earn the league’s weekly award this season. Lindsay Vollmer won the award on Jan. 22 and was followed by Diamond Dixon on Jan. 29.

An imposing 6-foot-9, 260-pounder who likes to rebound, but also possesses a soft shooting touch around the rim, Tarik Black figures to make some money next season playing basketball in Europe, if not the NBA. “If I was him, I’d try out for an NFL team, though,” KU coach Bill Self said Wednesday on his weekly “Hawk Talk” radio show.

“Aaron Rodgers told me when he was here, ‘I promise you he has a tryout with us,’” Self added of the Green Bay Packers quarterback who attended KU hoops practice on Jan. 17 and the KU-Oklahoma State game a day later.

“He said, ‘I want to try that guy at tight end,’” Self added of Black, KU’s senior pivot from Memphis.

“I said, ‘Tight end? He can’t go across the middle and get hit.’ But then I started thinking about it ... they (NFL teams) love to have basketball players. He (Rodgers) said, ‘I want to throw balls at him and see what he can do.’ Certainly (Black) is a phenomenal athlete for his size.”

There have been some success stories regarding basketball players competing in the NFL. Denver Broncos tight end Julius Thomas played basketball and football at Portland State. Atlanta tight end Tony Gonzalez played both at Cal-Berkeley.

night in Waco because of heavy snow in Lawrence.

The squad was back in Lawrence via charter flight early Wednesday afternoon.

“Today was an off day anyway. We didn’t have school. Nothing was lost.

We took our time and enjoyed each other a bit,” Self said of an unplanned overnight stay in Waco. l No news: Self said he’s amazed at the attention ESPN’s report that Joel Embiid is considering returning to KU for his sophomore season has received. Embiid told reporters after the game he’d turn pro after this season if he felt he was mentally and physically ready for the NBA. Earlier he’d told ESPN he was strongly considering returning for a second campaign.

“It’s absolutely not newsworthy at all. Of course he’s considering staying. It’s what everybody is doing right now.

Guys are worried about their (college) teams,” Self said of top prospects.

“The situation with Joel is that (money) is not the concern, so Jo should go whenever Jo is the most prepared to go. If he wants to be a player, he needs to be a player where he is prepared to play in the league. I think he is without question the best big guy I’ve ever been around. He amazes me on a daily basis.

Roundup The Associated Press

Lakers 119, Cavaliers 108 Cleveland — The depleted Los Angeles Lakers had to keep Robert Sacre on the court after he fouled out in the fourth quarter of a victory over Cleveland on Wednesday night.

Rookie Ryan Kelly scored a career-high 26 points and Steve Blake had 15 assists for Los Angeles, which snapped a seven-game losing streak.

The Lakers went 18 for 37 from three-point range.

But Los Angeles’ first win in two weeks was overshadowed by a bizarre ending.

When Chris Kaman fouled out early in the fourth quarter, the Lakers were down to five available players due to injuries. So coach Mike D’Antoni had to keep Sacre in the game after he committed his sixth foul with 3:32 left, drawing a technical.

Magic 112, Pistons 98 Orlando, Fla. — Rookie Victor Oladipo came off the bench to score 20 points, and Glen Davis had 18, leading Orlando past Detroit.

Celtics 114, 76ers 108 Philadelphia — Jeff Green scored 17 of his 36 points in the third quarter in Boston’s victory over Philadelphia.

Spurs 125, Wizards 118, 2OT Washington — Tim Duncan scored a seasonhigh 31 points before fouling out in the second overtime, and San Antonio beat Washington.

Woman advises others to check on husband Dear Annie: I recently found out that my husband has been calling escorts who advertise online. I am not sure whether he ever hooked up with any of them. I am just shocked that he is doing this and that it has been going on for quite some time.

I feel stupid that it took me so long to pick up on it. It appears he and his buddies had this system going to cover for each other when they communicated with these women. And then he gives me a Christmas card that says how much he loves me. It’s as if he dumped 30 years of marriage down the gutter. It’s the same as cheating.

Let this be a heads up to all the women out there: Check your husband’s cellphone bills.

Of course, this is not Leno’s first crack at a “final” show.

He departed in 2009 to make way for Conan O’Brien, his official successor, and he invited O’Brien on his last show. Of course, later that year, thenNBC chief Jeff Zucker had the bright idea of having Leno return every night for a primetime gig at 10 p.m.

Zucker compounded the fiasco by alienating O’Brien and his fan base and returning Leno to “The Tonight Show,” where he has presided since the conclusion of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games.

We all know O’Brien has neither forgotten nor forgiven NBC’s reversal. And tonight he shows up Jay’s celebration of “Murphy Brown”-era popular culture by inviting the cast of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” to appear on “Conan” (10 p.m., TBS).

let them eat cupcakes

W

hether it’s due to the polar vortex or my sweet tooth working overtime, I’ve certainly had chocolate on my mind a lot lately. You too? Sometimes I’ll try to curb the craving with a single Oreo, or a handful of M&M’S, but alas, these poor attempts are hardly a cure for what I like to call “chocolate brain.” So what to do? This is what: call in the experts. Get up, get out and get to Billy Vanilly.

Named after one of its most popular cupcakes, Billy Vanilly has been in downtown Lawrence for a couple of years now. This is the second location for the regionally owned cupcake shop; the original location opened in 2007 in Topeka.

As stated on its website, Billy Vanilly cupcakes are made from scratch and baked fresh daily. As they say, “this ain’t no fake cake!” And if you’ve tasted the delectable cakes, you know there’s certainly no question about their freshness.

I’m not sure what their secret seductive ingredient is, but I wish it would find its way into my home-mixed cake batter on occasion (I could use all the help I can get).

I stopped in to Billy Vanilly with my sweet tooth in mind. With 13 everyday flavors, two daily flavors and three seasonal flavors (whoa), there are a LOT of options to choose from. Red velvet, carrot cake, lemon and chocolate — it’s all on the menu.

Beyond flavors, the business also has various sizes of cupcakes: preemies ($1.50), baby cakes ($3) and big kid cakes ($4). There are also gluten-free options. And yet, I still had no problem making a selection — a “peanut butter cup” cupcake? There’s really no competition there — but I think I’ll have to come back in the near future. I am anticipating a bad case of “red velvet brain”

breaking the ice

Stan Ring

Deicer can hurt environment if not used properly

D

eicing salts have become a part of our winter lives. They make snow and ice removal easier and provide some measure of safety on our roads and streets. They can also be detrimental to vegetation and, if overused, are an environmental threat.

If applied sparingly and only when needed, minimal harm will be done. But excessive use can lead to an accumulation of the active ingredients, and this chemical buildup impedes the uptake of nutrients plants need for healthy growth and may not be noticed until late May or early June. By then we have forgotten the possible cause of our plant problems.

Deicers work by lowering the freezing point of water. They are most effective if applied, even sparingly, before the ice has formed and least effective, if at all, when spread over accumulated snow.

There are five major ingredients used in chemical deicers. These will be offered individually or as a mixture. They all work but some are more suited to a certain temperature and some are less harmful to vegetation. l Sodium chloride (rock salt) is the original deicer. It is the cheapest, but it damages not only plants but also concrete and metal as well. It is effective down to 12 degrees F. l Calcium chloride is rarely harmful to plants but produces a slimy surface on concrete and other hard surfaces. It is effective down to -25 degrees F. l Potassium chloride damages not only plant roots but also the foliage from splash or overspray. It is effective down to 15 degrees F. l Carbonyl diamide (urea) is a highnitrogen fertilizer that can contaminate the ground and runoff water with high

levels of nitrates. It is effective down to 21 degrees F. l Calcium magnesium acetate (CMA) is a newer product combining acetic acid and dolomitic limestone. It is made to prevent snow from sticking to itself and the treated surface and has little effect on plants. It is effective down to 20 degrees F. Shopping around indicates that four of these are available locally, ranging in price from 12 cents to 35 cents per pound. Three pounds will easily treat a normal driveway and the sidewalk, so cost is not a deciding factor.

There is an emergence of some liquid sprays with magnesium chloride and agriculture by-products. I did not find any of these available to the homeowner. The city pretreats with the liquid form, and after drying it becomes very effective as a pretreatment.

The old-fashioned way of removing what you can and then adding an abrasive such as sand or gravel remains the most environmentally friendly method of coping with the snow and ice. Using as little as possible of any chemical is always advisable.

If the splash or chemical-laden piles cannot be avoided, as on a major thoroughfare, plant choices may help. Salt tolerant choices include ponderosa and mugo pines, blue spruce, white ash, honey locust, Norway maple, sumac, willow, black locusts and red, white and bur oaks. Tall fescue and perennial ryegrasses are good turfgrass choices where salt may build up.

playing for laughs Laugh Out Loud combines creative, physical play for kids

I

have not studied the matter scientifically, but, nonetheless, I believe there is a direct correlation between the Kid’s need to run and play and the temperature outside. The colder it is, the more desperately we need to leave the house right now.

Luckily, when the combination of polar vortex and toddler energy threaten to do me in, we can always release some of the pressure with a trip to Laugh Out Loud, 1000 Massachusetts St. Located just off Massachusetts Street. with an entrance on 10th Street, Laugh Out Loud — “LOL” to its friends — is an indoor play space built with room for both physical and imaginative play.

In addition to a large play structure and climbing wall, there’s a dress-up area and space to play veterinarian. In addition to a jumping pillow, there are art and dance party rooms. Add in free Wi-Fi for parents and a full menu of snacks, and you can see why it might be a good place to weather a cold spell.

That LOL caters so well to both kids and parents is unsurprising, given that it was opened to help one set of parents — owners Charles and Christie Peterson — get to spend more time with their two adorable daughters, Zoe and Kia. Before they had children, the Petersons operated a business creating challenge courses and providing training for teambuilding activities.

Meryl Carver-Allmond/Special to the Journal-World

WHAT’S SO FUNNY? The Kid has fun in a play structure at Laugh Out Loud, 1000 Massachusetts St.

“That, however, required a lot of travel, so when Zoe was 2, we decided we needed to find a new line of work,” Christie said. “At that time, I was taking her into Kansas City with my new-found mommy friends to go to play places there, as there was not much in Lawrence for little ones.”

One day a friend suggested opening a similar play place in Lawrence. After a year of dreaming and even more time

is actually the wide diversity of activities, from physical to creative, to dramatic, to artistic. The kids are able to run from one activity to the next, and because of the variety, they really seem to be able to be entertained here for hours. That is actually what sets us apart from many children’s activity centers — most focus either on physical play, or on creative play, but do not combine them in one space,” Christie said.

With a pay once, play all day admission scheme, you actually could stay for hours. Or you could play in the morning, go have lunch, and come back for more wearing-out, er, play, in the afternoon.

Admission is $5 to $7.50 depending on the age of your child, and punch cards or an annual membership will discount those prices. One adult admission is free with the admission of each child.

LOL also does birthday parties and overnight adventures — we’re having the Kid’s birthday there soon, in fact. I’m looking forward to avoiding the mess and chaos of having 10 preschoolers in my tiny house, of course, but I’m also starting to get excited about the fun I know we’ll all have.

drafting business plans, LOL finally became reality.

While the Kid enjoys the play structure and jumping pillow, too, invariably we end up camped at the train table building bridges and crashing engines.

— Meryl Carver-Allmond lives in Lawrence But, as LOL is designed for kids from ages 6 months to about 12 years, I expect and writes about chickens, babies, knitting, gardening, food, photography, and whatever he’ll find lots of other things to do there else tickles her fancy on any given day at as he grows. www.mybitofearth.net.

Homey touch Handcrafted washcloths, $4.25 Made with organic cotton, these chunky knit, handmade washcloths give the bathroom the homey feel you’ve been looking for. These artisan washcloths, knitted by local artist Lis Niswonger, are a popular item found at Essential Goods, 825 Massachusetts St., with shoppers nostalgic for items knit by their grandmothers, says owner Molly Crook. They are not only soft on the skin but also give the bathroom a quaint look when left out to dry.

Whether fashionable and/or functional, here are nine low-cost ways to refresh your bathroom without spending thousands of remodeling dollars.

Quirky, but useful Soap in a Sack, $10 Don’t knock it before you try it. It’s actually a hot item at Made, 737 Massachusetts St., reminiscent of soap on a rope.

The best part of soap in a sack is that once you’ve used the natural soap that sits inside this scrubby loofah pouch on a string, you can replace it with your favorite soap and continue to reuse. No longer will the bar of soap slip from your fingers, and the mesh exfoliates as it cleans. Afterward, hang it up to dry for easy storage.

Aromatic decor Bazil Essentials Candles, $19.50 It’s never a bad idea to get some fragrances in the air of the bathroom, and what better way to do that than with organic soy candles. The b.e. (Bazil Essentials) line of candles, available at Essential Goods and made

by Lawrence resident Courtney Gray, come in various scents and mantras; the cedarwood forest is b.e. tranquil and the peppermint eucalyptus is b.e. serene.

Those are two sought-out qualities for a relaxing bath after a long day at work, complete with burning candles. The best part is that when left out, but not lit, they still offer a refreshing deodorizing effect. Much better aesthetically and fragrance-wise than over-intrusive aerosol cans.

Inspiring art Be Greater Today poster, $12.47 Mornings are not exactly easy for anyone. Start your day off on the right note with this retro typography motivational poster, at Earthbound Trading Co., to hang on your wall and tell you to “Be Greater Today.” That’s a reminder we could all use daily. “Be Kind Today” is a different option for another bathroom in the home, in case someone needs to be reminded after getting up on the wrong side of the bed.

For smaller spaces, it can easily be folded in half to fit. Who says the floor can’t look good, too?

Ultimate comfort Handheld shower head, $39.99 Replace your current shower head with an Exquisite handheld shower head with five different settings. It hooks up directly to your already existing shower arm so it’s really easy to connect, says Rod Ernst, owner of Ernst and Son Hardware, 826 Massachusetts St. The direct contact of the water stream to your skin provides the comfort after selecting one of the following settings: spray, massage, aerated, spray and massage, and spray and aeration. There is also the added bonus of pinpointing areas of the body while conserving water.

Street Interiors, 825 Massachusetts St., is an ingenious way to solve storage problems and add rustic decor to a smaller bathroom.

suit up for Date night

W

ith Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it’s time to talk date night.

Putting a little effort into your dress can mean a lot to your date, whether you’re on a first date or trying to kindle a bit of romance in a long-term relationship.

Deciding what to wear will largely be determined by your destination. Here are a couple date night suggestions accompanied by their fashionable, appropriate attire.

DRINKS AND MOVIE

If you’re looking for a relaxing evening out with your significant other, hit up Free State Brewing Company, 636 Massachusetts St., for some toprated brews followed by a movie next door at Liberty Hall. You should be able to cobble together a winning look for this evening with things already in your closet.

Start with a nice pair of darker jeans, an oxford button-down in a subtle color — blue being the most classic, and a light-brown, wing-tip shoe.

Throw on a tailored blazer or suit jacket, whichever you might own, over the top, along with a wool tie. Then, take it to the next level by pulling everything together with a tie bar and complementary (not matching) patterned or colored pocket square.

FORMAL DINNER

Occasionally, like on Valentine’s Day, you need to step it up to truly impress. No worries, though.

Downtown Lawrence has plenty to offer when it comes to pulling out all the stops. An evening at 715, a European-style restaurant know for its top-notch dishes and uniquely inspired cocktails (I personally recommend the horse feathers and barrel-aged Manhattan), will do the trick.

There’s no need to rent a tux for a classier evening out, but you will want to leave your Levi’s in

LOOKING SHARP. For special occasions like Valentine’s Day, men need to step up their wardrobe and dress to impress for a night out. A dark-charcoal suit is a good place to start because of its versatility.

the closet. A night to remember calls for a suit. If it has been awhile since you last bought a suit and yours resembles something from “The Sopranos,” you might consider an update.

The latest trend in suit wear has been slimmer and tighter, but to ensure you buy something that will last, avoid anything that leaves you feeling… let’s say exposed. At the same time, you don’t want to be swimming in your suit. To avoid either of these unfortunate happenings, try to purchase your jacket and pants as separates to ensure a better all-around fit. Then take them to a local tailor for a bespoke finish.

If you are in the market for your first suit, look for a dark-charcoal wool suit at Weaver’s Depart-

ment Store, 901 Massachusetts St. This will be versatile enough for date nights, job interviews, weddings and even funerals. But if you’re feeling a bit more adventurous with your style, I recommend a light-gray or even light-khaki suit.

Once you’ve settled on a suit, stick with a plain white button-down for a refined aesthetic. For the finishing touches grab a striped wool or silk tie, tie bar, and instead of the wing tips you might expect, opt for loafers to spice everything up.

Ed Demasio Tyler and Janelle Barta Ages: Tyler: 21; Janelle: 22 Relationship status: Married Hometowns: Tyler: Eudora; Janelle: Ottawa Occupations: Tyler: Right now, I’m doing detail work at The Selection; Janelle: I work at Sonic.

Dream jobs: Tyler: I hope to become a body shop painter; Janelle: We’d like to own our own business together.

What were you doing when scouted? Heading to Urban Outfitters.

Describe your styles: Tyler: I like to dress up with a suit and tie. Most of the time, I skate.

Janelle: He’s a skateboarder! He’s not quite as fancy all the time! My style is comfortable and whatever I like. I’m also inspired by ’50s and ’20s era (fashion styles).

Fashion trends you love: Janelle: Tyler likes bright colors and colorful things. I tend to like laid-back country or lacey, flowy stuff. Although I like the ’20s and ’50s era, I’m also a country girl: I like my boots, my overalls and stuff!

Fashion trends you hate: Janelle: Provocative stuff and stuff that’s not necessary. But even if it’s kind of crazy and unique, I think it’s cool as long as it’s modest.

Tyler: I’m definitely sick of seeing those Adidas running shorts that a lot of girls wear.

Fashion influences: Janelle: We shop around at different stores and piece together certain outfits. It doesn’t have to be a specific brand.

Tyler: I see some of it on TV. Like Janelle said, I’m a skateboarder so I see certain styles that I’m attracted to. I love skate shoes and I have a lot of them.

What would you like to see more or less of in Lawrence?

Janelle: I would like to see women dress up more and take care of themselves. You see way too many people with this sloppy, thrown-together pajama pants look. Not that it matters, but I think it is important women and men to dress up at least every once in awhile.

Tyler: Brand new roads would be awesome! I drive a low-rider so it gets rough around town sometimes.

Janelle: Yeah, we hit a leaf and the car skids.

Whom do people say you look like?

5 ways to rout grout

C

leaning grout lines between tiles is a tedious job. Here are a few cleaning options that could make the end result a little brighter and a little whiter.

Option 1: Mix a solution of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda to a paste-like consistency. Spread the paste over a section of grout lines.

Wait 10-15 minutes and then scrub the grout lines with a small, stiff brush.

Continue to apply the paste, wait and scrub until the grout lines are clean.

Wipe the remaining residue up with a clean, damp cloth. Finish the process by washing the entire surface with a mild cleaner. Hydrogen peroxide may bleach colored grouts. Test a small area before using this method.

Option 2: Fill a bucket with 7 cups warm water, 1/3 cup ammonia and 1/4 cup white vinegar. Stir in 1/2 cup of baking soda. Once the baking soda has dissolved completely, pour the mixture into a spray bottle. Spray a small area

TIPS FOR CLEANER FLOORS. For small grout stains between tiles, try erasing the stain with a standard pencil eraser or use toothpaste and a toothbrush to scrub the area clean.

of grout and wait 5-10 minutes. Scrub vigorously with a stiff bristle brush.

Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away residue. Rinse with clean water. Finish the process by washing the entire surface with a mild cleaner. Vinegar is

an acid and should not be used on limestone, marble or travertine tile.

Option 3: Mix equal parts of warm water and a powdered oxygen-based bleach, such as OxiClean. Apply mixture liberally to a section of grout.

Allow the solution to work for 20-30 minutes or longer for tough stains.

Scrub a stiff bristle brush and use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away the residue. Keep working until all the grout is clean. Finish the job by washing the entire area with a mild cleaner.

Option 4: For small stains, try erasing the stain with a standard pencil eraser or use toothpaste and a toothbrush to scrub the area clean.

Option 5: By far the easiest and possibly the most effective option is to use a Clorox Bleach Pen to coat the grout lines completely. Allow the cleaner to set over night. When you return in the morning, all that will remain is a white, powdery residue. Brush away the residue and clean the area with clear, warm water. Using bleach on colored grout may change the color of the grout. Test a small area before using this method.

Toddlers love selfies: Parenting in an iPhone age

BY GILLIAN FLACCUS ASSOCIATED PRESS

Los Angeles — Every so often, Brandi Koskie finds dozens of photos of her 3-year-old daughter, Paisley, on her iPhone — but they aren’t ones Koskie has taken.

“There’ll be 90 pictures, sideways, of the corner of her eye, her eyebrow,” said Koskie, who lives in Wichita, Kan. “She’s just tapping her way right into my phone.”

The hidden photos, all shot by Paisley, illustrate a phenomenon familiar to many parents in today’s tech-savvy world: Toddlers love selfies. Observant entrepreneurs have caught on to these image-obsessed tots, marketing special apps that make taking photos super-easy for little fingers.

You can even buy a pillow with a smartphone pocket so toddlers can take selfies during a diaper change.

But toddlers aren’t the only ones taking photos nonstop. It’s not unusual for doting parents to snap thousands of digital photos by the time their child is 2. Today’s toddlers think nothing of finding their own biopic stored in a device barely bigger than a deck of cards.

While the barrage of images may keep distant grandparents happy, it’s not yet clear how such a steady diet of self-affirming navel-gazing will affect members of the first truly “smartphone generation.”

Tot-centric snapshots can help build a healthy self-image and boost childhood memories when handled correctly, but shooting too many photos or videos and playing them back instantly for a demanding toddler could backfire, said Deborah Best, a professor of cognitive developmental psychology at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C. The instant gratification that smartphones provide today’s toddlers is “going to be hard to overcome,” she said. “They like things immediately, and they like it short and quick. It’s going to have an im-

pact on kids’ ability to wait for gratification. I can’t see that it won’t.”

It’s natural for toddlers to be fascinated with their own image (think mirrors), and that interest plays an important developmental role as they develop a sense of self, child development experts say. Watching a video again and again can also help move events from short- to long-term memory, Best said.

But like any other fun thing kids get obsessed with, too much of it can be bad.

Parents should make sure some photos show the child with other family members or friends. Parents can also sit with kids and narrate the photo or video as if it were a bedtime story.

“When we read a book to a child, it’s the same thing we do with these photos,” Best said.

Koskie has noticed that cuddling in bed on a lazy Saturday morning and swiping through digital photos is one of Paisley’s favorite activities, and it seems to encourage her to ask about her place in the world.

They look at photos and videos together on the iPad going back to Paisley’s birth and “she’ll start to ask questions: ‘When I was a little tiny baby did I do this? Did I do that?’”
