Judiciary in Kansas shows very little racial diversity

KU IN THE MIRROR

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — When Kansas Chief Justice Lawton Nuss gave his annual State of the Judiciary address in January, one topic was never discussed, but it was plainly visible.

During the pomp and ceremony of the occasion, just before Nuss took the podium, the bailiff asked everyone to rise as the other six justices filed in, followed by the 13 judges of the Kansas Court of COURTS Appeals. Of the 20 appellate court jurists in Kansas, only one face was nonwhite.

Appeals Court Judge Henry W. Green, an African-American, is the only nonwhite judge above the district court level in Kansas.

County studying issues as prelude to jail expansion, mental health care project

Prep work for reaccreditation yields ‘honest’ 10-year look at university

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Have some time to kill and want to know — honestly — what’s been going on at Kansas University for the past decade?

Check out the 209-page Self Study that upwards of 100 KU community members spent more than a year preparing in time for Monday’s visit by representatives of the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of

Colleges and Schools. (Or if you don’t have THAT much time, see the Executive Summary, a mere 45 pages.)

The commission is the agency in charge of accrediting KU. The hefty Self Study is one of its requirements for reacKANSAS UNIVERSITY creditation, which comes around once every 10 years.

“If anybody on campus reads

this, they’re going to learn a whole lot about this university that they don’t know,” said Susan Twombly, accreditation steering committee chairwoman, professor of higher education administration and chairwoman of KU’s Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies. “It puts together in one place lots of information about where this university is at this point in time.”

The leaders behind a proposal to expand the Douglas County Jail and construct a mental health crisis intervention center know there’s a need for such an undertaking and that it must be acted on soon. But for now, they just want to understand it.

Since October, and for at least another three months, project officials are touring other treatment facilities, reaching out to potential partner agencies, analyzing data and studying how to best establish a system

Autopsy: Woman burned to death Wichita — An autopsy report says a Wichita woman who was raped, beaten and set on fire at a city park died of complications from the burns.

Sedgwick County officials say 36-year-old Letitia Davis was burned over about 70 percent of her body in the attack at Fairmount Park in November near the Wichita State University campus. The report was filed in court Tuesday.

The Wichita Eagle reports the autopsy also showed Davis had bluntforce trauma to her head, facial fractures and cuts.

She died Nov. 22, eight days after the attack.

Cornell McNeal has been charged with capital murder in the attack. He remains in jail with a bond of more than $1.25 million.

His preliminary hearing is scheduled for March 5.

Brownback to visit Fort Riley Topeka — Republican Gov. Sam Brownback and Kansas legislators are planning to attend a town hall meeting on the future of Fort Riley.

The meeting Monday was called to allow Army officials to hear from the community about how possible troop reductions at Fort Riley would affect them.

Fort Riley employs more than 25,000 people in the Junction City area. In a news release, Fort Riley said as many as 16,000 could be dismissed or redeployed.

Man, 25, charged in shooting death Kansas City, Kan. — A 25-year-old man has been charged in the shooting death of a man in Kansas City, Kan. The Wyandotte County prosecutor’s office announced Saturday in a news release that Andrew M. Farish, of the Johnson County town of Westwood, faces one count of second-degree murder in the death of Gerardo Jimenez. Police found the body of the 35-year-old Kansas City, Kansas, man on Friday in a home in the Rosedale area of the city.

Farish was arrested later Friday in Kansas City, Missouri, and is jailed there on $1 million bond pending extradition.

Twombly said the commission wants an “honest picture,” the thought being that universities can’t improve problems without acknowledging them.

KU’s Self Study presents evidence that the university meets the commission’s five criteria for accreditation. The document summarizes KU’s major initiatives and many successes, and outlines dozens of areas where the university could do better, too.

“It’s not a public relations document,” Twombly said. “It’s very different from most of the things that the university produces that the public can read.”

Baldwin commerce director doubles as radio host

Bills to cut prison costs sent to House

Sleepy snapshot

By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @LJWorld

Baldwin City — Baldwin City residents may not know the first-ever executive director of the Baldwin City Chamber of Commerce, but they’ve probably heard his voice.

That’s because the new director, Hank Booth, is a longtime Lawrence radio personality with KLWN in addition to being the former Lawrence Chamber of commerce vice president.

“That’s what I’ve been telling people,” Hank Booth said recently. “I’ve done the radio show ‘According to the Record’ since getting out of the Army in 1972.”

At the end of January, it was announced that Booth was hired as the chamber’s first executive director. He recently started his duties in Baldwin City.

Booth, who lives near Pleasant Grove with his wife, Sue, also comes to the position with a background in economic development, having worked at the Lawrence Chamber of commerce for eight years starting in 2007.

He served as that organization’s vice president of community affairs and as director of government and community affairs. He also was interim director of the Lawrence Chamber for a year in

Topeka (ap) — Kansas is the latest in a series of states moving to reduce its prison population and cut costs, but parallel legislation stiffening penalties for some crimes may nullify the effort.

The Kansas Sentencing Commission has submitted two bills to a House panel to ease overcrowding in state prisons and save money. The bills, which have been endorsed by the Department of Corrections and many legislators, would keep offenders out of prison on their first two marijuana possession offenses and allow some prisoners to knock off additional time for LEGISLATURE good behavior.

Scott Schultz, executive director of the Kansas Sentencing Commission, said the cost of incarcerating criminals is starting to get lawmakers’ attention.

“I think the dialogue is open for us and the Legislature is in some sense being pushed in that direction just because of budget issues. Things are not as flexible as they used to be,” Schultz said.

Kansas’ prison population is already 146 prisoners over capacity and is expected to grow to 107 percent capacity by 2024.

Department of Corrections Secretary Ray Roberts has said 1,160 prisoners have been added to Kansas’ system since 2009. With an annual cost of about $24,500 per inmate, these new prisoners are costing the state about $28.4 million — a high cost in the face of Kansas’ projected budget shortfall of almost $600 million for the fiscal year that begins July 1.

What questions should we be sure to ask the candidates? Email me at jwright@ljworld.com and let me know, or comment at the end of this story online.

Statehouse coverage In the 1990s when I was covering the Kansas Legislature, the Statehouse press corps was sizable. My newspaper had two reporters covering the session, as did others. One had three,

as did The Associated Press. Several news outlets had a reporter stationed at the Statehouse all year.

Then came the Great Recession and the Internet, and with them upheavals that changed almost every facet of newspapering and newspaper economics.

Today, the Journal-World is one of only a few Kansas news organizations with a full-time Statehouse reporter.

Because I was a politics reporter for my entire reporting career, my interest in political and public

policy coverage may be outsized, but I think it’s an essential function of any serious news organization.

Washington Post White House reporter and blogger Chris Cillizza recently called out the “best of the best” Statehouse reporters, including the JournalWorld’s Peter Hancock, in his “The Fix” blog.

He said: “The most under-appreciated reporters in the political world are the scribes covering state and local politics. They rarely get the attention of their colleagues at the national level but are often covering the very politicians and national trends that come to impact the broad political landscape.”

That certainly describes Peter, who has worked in the Statehouse in various capacities since the mid-1990s, including

nine legislative sessions as the Statehouse reporter for Kansas Public Radio; two years as the public information officer for the Kansas Health Policy Authority, which is now the Division of Health Care Finance within the Kansas Department of Heath and Environment; and a stint as owner and writer of an independent news service focusing on education policy in Kansas. He’s covered the Statehouse for us since last summer. He’s particularly good at getting up above the daily grind and explaining trends, as he did on Friday with a story about various GOP efforts to exert more control on local governments.

and Juvenile Justice Committee, which has endorsed the bills and sent them to the House, said he supports the move.

“I have never seen research that shows that, on nonviolent crimes, a connection between the length of sentence and the amount of rehabilitation,” Moxley said, adding that Kansas should focus on policies that yield more “bang for the buck.”

At least 17 states have eased drug penalties, with most diverting offenders to treatment rather than prison time, according to a report by the National Conference of State Legislators.

The Kansas Sentencing Commission’s bills would save an estimated $3.6 million by freeing up 150 beds in state prisons, Schultz said, but those gains would be wiped out by another bill that would increase penalties for home burglaries.

BALDWIN CITY’S FIRST CHAMBER OF COMMERCE DIRECTOR, radio personality Hank Booth, plans to strengthen the city by partnering with Baker University and touting the city as a good place for young families, entrepreneurs and retirees. all three of them.”

One of his tasks with the Lawrence chamber was to build bridges with individuals and groups in Lawrence whose views on growth didn’t always align with those of the chamber, Booth said. Although he didn’t anticipate such rifts in Baldwin City, Booth said he would apply what he learned through that experience and would be available to listen to residents’ concerns about economic development and chamber issues.

“If you have questions about the Baldwin City Chamber of Commerce, call me,” he said.

‘A second home’ Booth starts with the advantage of his Baldwin City roots. He went through third and fourth grade in the Baldwin school district after his parents bought a farmhouse just south of town.

His father sold the property and moved back to Lawrence after his mother died.

He remained tied to Baldwin City through his aunt and uncle, Helen and Harvey Booth, who owned a downtown grocery store for years. After selling that venture, they farmed west of the city, Booth said.

“Baldwin City has been like a second home to me for many years,” he said.

“My family and I love Baldwin City.”

Booth’s long association with radio started at 10 years of age when his widower father started bringing him and his sister to the Lawrence station he owned. Booth would follow in his father’s footsteps as owner and general manager of the station. He would later sell the station to

“

These people (who burglarize homes) need to go to prison. There is no doubt in my mind.”

— Sen. Jeff King, R-Independence The burglary bill has been approved by the Senate Corrections and Juvenile Justice Committee and will now move to the Senate. During the committee’s debate on the bill, Republican Sen. Jeff King of Independence said that its impact on the prison population gave him pause, but added, “These people need to go to prison. There is no doubt in my mind.”

Other bills submitted to the Legislature would increase prison time for aggravated drunken driving and theft of scrap metal.

Alison Lawrence, a senior policy specialist at the NCSL, said many states are caught in the push and pull of budget constraints and constituents seeking tougher penalties for criminals.

Few states have passed

comprehensive adjustments to their sentencing guidelines, she said, but those that have seen major prison population drops include Georgia, which passed a comprehensive raft of legislation in 2012, and California, which was forced to reform sentencing guidelines by a federal court order in 2011.

Schultz said although he would like to see the state move from piecemeal discussions to a comprehensive bill on sentence length, political realities in the conservative state make that difficult.

“It’s a very tough sell here, as you might imagine, because to be able to say ‘I’m tough on crime,’ reducing the length of sentences across the board for crimes is something that may not be too popular,” he said.

Zimmer Radio Group and work as a consultant for the company.

His familiarity and affection for Baldwin City inform his vision for his goals for the chamber, Booth said.

“I think Baldwin City has a great future, but I don’t think people here want it to be Johnson County,” he said. “This isn’t about taking the 5,000 living here today and making it 10,000 in 10 years. That’s not what our job is. I think people want to live here because it’s a great community.

It’s a safe community with great amenities and a great school system.”

Baker, businesses key Booth said Baldwin City should seek growth with a three-pronged approach of residential growth that targets young families and retirees, economic development

through encouraging young entrepreneurial businesses and supporting the asset of Baker University as the avenue of realizing those goals, Booth said.

“We’re so blessed to have an academic institution as strong as Baker in our community,” he said.

“I haven’t met (Baker President) Lynne Murray yet, but I think of her as a partner. I hope she feels the same way. A strong Baker University is the best thing for Baldwin City.”

Baker was one of the principal features and amenities that would attract residential growth to the community, Booth said. Baldwin City should appeal to young families looking for a school system where their children can get a quality education while participating in a wide range of extracurricular activities, as well as baby boomers seeking

a safe and comfortable place to retire.

“I think Baker alums from the ’60s and ’70s would love to return,” he said. “It’s a safe, beautiful town.”

Thriving chamber members Reflective Group, Rice Precision Manufacturing and McFarlane Aviation in Vinland were models for the kind of economic development the community should seek and encourage, Booth said.

“I don’t think Baldwin City wants to put a manufacturing plant on the edge of town with 500 employees,” he said. “Look at what Dave McFarlane has done growing his business to 40 employees and needing to expand again. That’s the kind of business we need in this town.

“As those businesses grow and you get other young entrepreneurial businesses, you fill up stores downtown and on the highway and maybe see new ones built.”

In making that threepronged approach work, Booth said, he and the chamber will have to wear many hats.

“We’re here to do whatever needs to be done — facilitate, partner, network,” he said.

Booth said he also was interested in the thoughts of chamber members and residents on his and the chamber’s role.

“I want to hear from people and invite them to call me ,” he said. “I need to get to know the Economic Development Council folks. I have a lot of people to meet.

“I’m in my late 60s, but I still have the same energy I always had when I’m excited about something like I am about this.”

Storing police body camera footage may prove costly St. Paul, Minn. (ap) — The rush to outfit police officers with body cameras after last summer’s unrest in Ferguson, Mo., threatens to saddle local governments with steep costs for managing the volumes of footage they must keep for months or even years, according to contracts, invoices and company data reviewed by The Associated Press.

The storage expenses — running into the millions of dollars in some cities — often go overlooked in the debates over using cameras as a way to hold officers accountable.

Yet those costs can have a significant effect on city and county budgets, and in some cases may force police chiefs to choose between paying officers on the street or paying yearly video storage fees.

Baltimore Mayor Stephanie RawlingsBlake already has sounded the alarm over the long-term costs of police body cameras.

In December, she vetoed a proposal that would have required officers to wear cameras because she didn’t believe the costs and other details were adequately considered. City officials estimated costs up to $2.6 million a year for storage and the extra staff needed to manage the video data.

“Knowing how we didn’t have a lot of wiggle room with the budget constraints we face, we couldn’t afford to get it wrong,” said RawlingsBlake, who intends to present another plan this spring. “Any time you do something on this scale, if you don’t take the time up front, you are setting yourself up for failure and disappointment from

A RED LIGHT ON THE BODY CAMERA WORN ON DULUTH, MINN., POLICE OFFICER DAN MERSETH’S UNIFORM indicates it is active during a traffic stop. The city’s 110 officer-worn cameras are generating 8,000 to 10,000 videos per month that are kept for at least 30 days and in many cases longer, said Duluth Police Chief Gordon Ramsay. the community.”

In some cities, the AP found that the small cameras worn by beat cops on their uniforms or glasses were obtained at deep discounts when departments inked data-management deals that are far more lucrative over the long run for device manufacturers.

Those plans run between $20 and $100 per officer per month, depending on the volume generated.

Demand for the devices is booming after the controversy in Ferguson and would accelerate further if Congress adopts President Barack Obama’s request for $75 million to help communities buy 50,000 more body cameras.

Already, cities are wrestling with whether they can afford to equip all their officers and how often the cameras should be turned off to reduce the video recorded.

With an average officer uploading several videos

per shift, it doesn’t take long for data — and the associated expense — to add up.

“It’s enormous,” said Police Chief Gordon Ramsay of Duluth, Minn., where the city’s 110 officer-worn cameras are generating 8,000 to 10,000 videos per month that are kept for at least 30 days and in many cases longer. “The more you capture, the more you have to store, which means higher costs.”

Duluth initially received 84 cameras and charging bays for less than $5,000 from camera maker Taser International, but its three-year contract and licensing agreement for data storage cost about $78,000.

Other cities are just beginning to struggle with how to pay for body cameras: l In Wichita, the police department has proposed selling a helicopter used to

search for suspects in order to fund its body-camera program for hundreds of officers. The cost is estimated at $6.4 million over a decade and includes two employees to manage the program. l In Berkeley, Calif., the city manager warned in a memo in January of likely costs of at least $45,000 a year for storing data from 150 cameras and assigning one or two employees. l San Diego’s five-year contract with Taser for 1,000 cameras would cost $267,000 for the devices — but another $3.6 million for storage contracts, software licenses, maintenance, warranties and related equipment.

Digital Ally, which is among several companies trying to get a foothold in the industry, donated cameras and a server to store the data to the police department in Ferguson, where officers began

wearing them shortly after the August shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown by white officer Darren Wilson.

The body-camera funding in the federal budget Obama proposed Monday would be part of a three-year plan and does not distinguish between hardware and storage costs. The proposal will go before a Republicancontrolled Congress that is trying to reduce federal spending, and will not be decided for months.

Police officials say they expect the cost of body cameras to exceed the in-car video systems that were widely implemented during the early 2000s.

Some departments say it’s been hard to find money to maintain those systems as they age. Body-worn cameras are expected to produce even more videos and more requests from lawyers, journalists and the general public for access to what they show.

Mindful of costs, police forces with cameras are limiting when officers use them, what they store and for how long. But many can’t avoid adding servers and reassigning or hiring extra staff.

Some officials are warning the ongoing costs could mean tax hikes or service cuts later. ”Everybody is screaming, ‘We need body cameras.’ But nobody is saying, where is the money coming from? What are you going to do with all the data? Who is going to manage it?” said Sgt. Jason Halifax of the Des Moines Police Department, which is struggling to identify a funding source for $300,000 to start a program. “Are we going to cut personnel? Are we going to increase taxes?”

Camera concerns Police body camera technology is raising a lot of questions, from how the cameras will be used to the accessibility of the footage.

Here are answers to some questions about body cameras: Q: How are they used?

A: Officers wear a camera on their chest or the side of their sunglasses that records their interactions with the public.

Footage is loaded onto a server and purged after a set period of time, depending on its value as evidence in ongoing legal cases.

Q: Why are they gaining popularity?

A: Demand has exploded since the fatal shooting of 18-yearold Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., in August by a police officer and subsequent protests. Officers like the recordings because they protect them against false accusations. Community activists say they are a check on police misconduct.

Q: What legal questions are police departments and other officials grappling with?

A: The biggest is who gets to see or download the data accumulated by the cameras. Departments are being swamped with public records requests from watchdog groups and others.

As a result, lawmakers in many states are reviewing the laws governing access.

Judges CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

And throughout the state judicial system, according to the Office of Judicial Administration, of the 287 judges at the district, appellate and Supreme Court levels, racial minorities make up 3 percent of judges: four African-Americans, five Hispanics and one AsianAmerican. And that’s in a state where, according to the most recent census estimates, Hispanics and other nonwhite individuals now make up 23 percent of the population. “It’s a terrible situation, actually,� said Anne Burke, an Overland Park attorney who chairs the Kansas Supreme Court Nominating Commission.

That’s the group set up under the Kansas Constitution to receive applications for appointments to the state’s highest court and forward three names to the governor, who makes the final appointment.

It’s a system known as the “merit selection� process, and it’s also used in about half of the state’s 31 judicial districts, including the Seventh District, which is Douglas County.

In the other half of the districts, including Wyandotte and Sedgwick counties, judges are elected in partisan races, and those

that would keep some individuals with mental health issues and legal trouble outside of jail. “This is complex enough and it involves enough partners that inevitably it will go slower than we hope it will, but ironically that’s kind of expected,� County Administrator Craig Weinaug said.

The basic idea officials have in mind — all in an effort to counter rising inmate populations and a demand for better mental health care — is that inmates with mental health issues could be diverted from jail to a crisis intervention center as they await trial. That would serve their needs better and also minimize the expansion of the jail.

It could also help some of those nonviolent inmates avoid prosecution.

Officials hope they can establish a system wherein a judge would sentence a nonviolent, mentally ill individual to a treatment program at the intervention center. As long as the individual keeps to the program, charges would not be pursued, similar to drug courts that are common in other jurisdictions. “We need to find something other than incarceration for some people with mental health issues,� said Dan Rowe, a principal with Treanor Architects, who is leading a team of researchers to determine the scope of the project.

are the only districts that have African-American judges.

The result, says Court of Appeals Judge Karen Arnold-Burger, is a court that does not look like the community it serves, and that can have serious consequences. “Studies have been done that say people are more likely to comply with orders of a court, and more likely to respect a court’s decision, if the court looks like them,� she said. “If you have a bench with no one of color on it, then when people of color come before the court, they perceive, rightly or wrongly, that they are not going to be understood, that the system is stacked against them.�

Explaining the racial imbalance Burke, who has chaired the nominating commission for six years and previously served on similar district court nominating commissions, said part of the problem is that very few minority lawyers apply for those positions. “What I’ve experienced at both the district court and Supreme Court levels is the dearth of applications for these positions,� she said. “I don’t have a theory as to why people of color aren’t applying. It would be nice to see our bench more representative of our demographics.�

The state of things No specifics regarding the plan have been set; everything is in flux, including the size of the jail expansion, the number of beds involved, how large the intervention center would be and what it will cost. Weinaug has offered a ballpark estimate of $20 million to $30 million for it all, but he and others have maintained they truly do not know what the price will be yet.

Officials haven’t determined how to pay for it either, although Weinaug believes the Douglas County Commission will likely establish a public building commission to issue bonds. He expects the price tag to affect the mill levy, or taxes, as well.

What is known is that the 196-bed jail has housed an average daily population of 112 to 185 inmates between 2000 and 2013, according to an assessment study by the county. In the early 1990s, the average daily population hovered between 52 and 72 inmates.

The problem is that inmates are split up into housing classifications, based on their sex and behavior, and some of those spaces are running out of room. The assessment report said there are not enough beds for women, maximum security inmates and specialneeds inmates, including those with mental health problems.

Douglas County spent $100,000 to put its inmates in other county jails in 2014 and will spend another $250,000 this year.

alty appeals, which they argue are out of step with the views of most Kansans.

Jordan Yochim, executive director of the Kansas Bar Association, said KBA opposes changing the current system, and he said the merit selection process is more suited to promoting diversity, especially when compared with direct elections. “(That’s) because the selection is based on judicial qualifications, rather than other factors that might go through voters’ minds, or how much money they can raise for an election campaign,� he said.

Debra Erenberg, director of state affairs for Justice at Stake, a national group that monitors political developments in court systems, said the type of selection process used doesn’t really affect the diversity on the bench. “There’s mixed evidence on whether merit systems are better than electoral systems in terms of promoting diversity,� she said.

Regardless of which system a state uses, Erenberg said, diversity “needs to be an intention of the system.

It needs to be a goal going in.� “In either case, it’s not something that happens organically,� she said. “People who are part of the system need to consciously bring a desire to recruit a diverse bench.�

Memorial Hospital both confirmed their interest in the project, although they’ve only engaged in preliminary talks with the county so far.

But before blueprints are drafted, officials hope to hold about a half-dozen town hall meetings to solicit feedback and ideas from the public. The county has already pushed those back — they were originally to begin in late January — and it’s unknown when the first one will be scheduled.

Weinaug said he hopes the public will relate their experiences of

when someone’s mental health problems became entangled with the legal system. “What are you doing to address that situation?� is a question he wants to hear. “What we’re trying to do at the gut level, it’s important for people to hear those stories and understand how real the need is,� he said. “I think these hearings give us a chance to grasp that and see if we’re going in the right direction or not.�

Studies have been done that say people are more likely to comply with orders of a court, and more likely to respect a court’s decision, if the court looks like them. If you have a bench with no one of color on it, then when people of color come before the court, they perceive, rightly or wrongly, that they are not going to be understood, that the system is stacked against them.�

On average, about 35 percent of the jail’s population requires mental health services, according to Sharon Zehr, the head of a team of therapists from the Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center who work at the Douglas County jail.

If inmates declare a mental health problem during their booking interview, a member of the Bert Nash team will conduct an assessment with them to understand their history and make arrangements to keep their medications available to them, Zehr said.

From there, the therapists are available to meet by request, while the jail also provides several cognitive behavioral support groups. Zehr said those services are helpful but that a “correctional environment� is not the ideal place for them, since inmates are isolated from those who can provide care around the clock. “Trying to work with someone who has a severe mental illness or psychotic disorder, just locking them in a cell, it tends to make them worse,� she said. “The (correctional) officers are good, but they’re not mental health people; it’s not what they’re there to do.�

No system is in place that can divert an inmate to another facility, Zehr said. Detainees will sometimes be taken to

a hospital’s emergency room for mental health problems, but their stay is only temporary.

They’ll have to return to the jail eventually. “Absolutely, a crisis center would be great,� she said.

Gathering information Douglas County is spending approximately $185,000 for about a dozen people to study the specifics behind the project.

Treanor Architects will study other crisis intervention-like facilities. One researcher, former American Corrections Association president Bobbie Huskey, is poring over jail data to determine how many past inmates could have been diverted to another facility. Another researcher, Margaret Severson, a professor at Kansas University’s School of Social Welfare, is studying how the county can form a successful mental health court.

Rowe, of Treanor Architects, said he wants to have the project’s particulars in order by May, with concept and architectural designs to come soon after. Weinaug said the County Commission will determine how to fund the project over the next six months.

BRIEFLY U.S.: 9 million still jobless, frustrated Washington — The job market remains a frustrating place for America’s 9 million unemployed — perhaps more so as hiring has accelerated along with job postings.

The pace of job growth over the past three months was the fastest in 17 years.

The gains spanned nearly every industry, and some employers have finally had to dangle higher pay to attract or retain top talent.

And yet millions of job seekers still can’t find work. Some businesses remain slow to fill their openings, awaiting the ideal candidate. Many job seekers lack the skills employers require.

The plight of the unemployed also reflects an economic reality: Even in the best times, the number of job seekers is typically twice the number of job openings.

The January jobs report that the government issued Friday pointed to another factor, too: As hiring strengthens, more people typically start looking for jobs. As the number of job seekers grows, so does competition for work.

PTSD key factor in ‘Sniper’ trial Stephenville, Texas — Eddie Ray Routh had been talking crazy for a while.

So when he showed up on his sister’s doorstep one afternoon two Februarys ago and claimed to have shot two men, she didn’t know what to think.

But when Laura Blevins saw the big black custom pickup truck in the driveway, not Eddie’s Volkswagen Beetle, her stomach tightened. He asked if she was with him “in hell,” then drove off into the fading light.

JOB SEEKERS WAIT IN A LINE at a job fair in Southfield, Mich., in January 2011. In the United States, half of the 7.5 million jobs lost during the Great Recession were paid middleclass wages, ranging from $37,000 to $68,000. But only 2 percent of the 3.4 million jobs gained since the recession are mid-pay. life,” she breathlessly told a 911 dispatcher. “I don’t know if he’s being honest with me.”

It wasn’t long before she got her answer.

Routh, a 27-year-old Iraq War veteran, is scheduled to stand trial Wednesday, charged with capital murder in the slayings of Chad Littlefield and former Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, whose memoir “American Sniper” is now an Academy Awardnominated movie. The two men had taken the ex-Marine to a shooting range in an attempt to help him battle post-traumatic stress disorder and other personal demons besetting him.

Ukraine pushes for quick cease-fire Munich — Ukraine’s president pushed for both a quick cease-fire in his country’s troubled east and defensive weapons from the West, as mediators sought momentum Saturday for a deal to stem the fighting at Eu-

rope’s edge.

Petro Poroshenko and Russian President Vladimir Putin are to confer with the leaders of Germany and France by phone Sunday in an effort to overcome months of setbacks and suspicion and breathe new life into a much-violated September peace plan. But even those who had scheduled the call were cautious about its prospects.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel — who along with French President Francois Hollande traveled to Kiev on Thursday and Moscow on Friday — acknowledged disillusionment over the failure of previous agreements to stick and said “there are no theoretical guarantees” that a new one would either.

Western anxiety over the conflict is growing and sanctions are taking a toll on Russia’s economy.

More than 5,300 people have been killed since fighting began in April, according to a U.N. tally, and the bloodshed has markedly increased over

the past two weeks.

“I do not believe there will be a final solution on this situation. Putin is still not weak enough to accept that, and the West is not strong enough to insist on its terms,” said Igor Sutyagin, an analyst with the Royal United Services Institute in Britain.

dren and women when the suicide bomber blew himself up,” witness Mohamed Saeed said. “Many got killed.”

The Islamic State group later claimed responsibility for the attack, saying their bomber targeted Shiites, according to the SITE Intelligence Group, a U.S.-based terrorism monitor. The Sunni extremist militants now hold a third of both Iraq and neighboring Syria in their self-declared caliphate.

A second attack happened in central Baghdad’s popular Shorja market, where two bombs some 25 meters (yards) apart exploded, killing at least 11 people, police said. Another bombing at the Abu Cheer outdoor market in southwestern Baghdad killed at least four people, police said.

“Traditionally, supporters of Israel have been really evenhanded in supporting candidates of both parties,” Wilson said, but now “Democrats are slapping the friends of Israel in the face.”

Protesters pressure Yemen rebels Sanaa, Yemen — A day after taking power, Shiite rebels in Yemen found themselves increasingly under pressure Saturday as thousands protested against their rule and a group of nearby countries denounced their “coup.”

The leader of the Houthi rebels, AbdelMalak al-Houthi, gave an impassioned speech defending dissolving Yemen’s parliament Friday as the only response to a power “vacuum” — one his group created by besieging the country’s president, who later resigned.

The ongoing unrest in the Arab world’s poorest country could benefit Yemen’s al-Qaida branch, considered by America as the world’s most dangerous wing of the terror group. And while the Houthis oppose al-Qaida, they also are hostile to the U.S. and critics say Shiite power Iran backs their territorial gains — something the rebels deny.

The six Arab countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council, led by Sunniruled Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, issued a statement Saturday carried by the official Saudi Press Agency calling for the U.N. Security Council to “put an end to this coup.”

“The Cooperation Council sees Houthi coup as an escalation that cannot be accepted under any circumstances,” the council said.

What unique challenges must women overcome to rise to some of the highest positions or to be President of the United States? Following the historic election of our first African-American President in 2008, we update and expand our 2006 series on women in leadership. Co-sponsored by the Lawrence Public Library’s Read Across Lawrence, “The Handmaid’s Tale.”

EDITORIALS

Election action Measures that will significantly impact Kansas elections are moving ahead before the details of their impact have been fully examined.

A

couple of election bills proposed

by Secretary of State Kris Kobach are zooming along in the Kansas House.

A measure to allow straight-ticket voting in Kansas and one making death the only acceptable excuse for withdrawing from a national, state, county or township election race both were approved Wednesday by the House Elections Committee, less than two weeks after they were introduced.

Members of the committee apparently had gotten their questions about the two bills answered to their satisfaction, but the same may not be true for many Kansans — especially county election officials.

The measure to change the requirements to withdraw from a political race is a direct result of the maneuvering that occurred last fall when Democrat Chad Taylor withdrew from the state’s U.S. Senate race. Kobach said Taylor hadn’t shown, as the current statute requires, that he was unable to fulfill the duties of the office, but the Kansas Supreme Court disagreed. Kobach then wanted to force the Kansas Democratic Party to replace Taylor on the ballot, but party leaders declined and a three-judge district court panel allowed that decision to stand.

Clarifying this law may be a good idea, but saying that death is the only reason a candidate’s name can be withdrawn goes too far. One legislator pointed out that, according to the bill, someone who suffers a debilitating stroke or is required to move to another state for a job transfer couldn’t withdraw from the race even though they would be unable to serve.

Good point — but not good enough to hold the bill for further consideration.

Similar good points were raised about the straight-party voting bill. Key among those is what impact the measure would have on county election officials and how much expense administering a straight-party option would add to the election process.

The political subtext of the straight-party voting bill is that it would allow candidates at the end of the ballot to ride the coattails of fellow party members at the top of the ticket. In Republican Kansas, that advantage most often would fall to Republicans.

Kobach says the measure would reduce “ballot drop-off,” which he defines as voters voting in prominent races but not completing their ballots. It’s too much trouble, apparently, to consider the qualifications or experience of those candidates on down the ballot, so better to let those votes be cast purely on the basis of party affiliation.

The impact of that philosophy will be even greater if Kobach is able to push through his idea of moving local city commission and school board races to the fall and making them partisan contests.

At the rate they are moving, there’s a danger that both of these bills will be passed before their ramifications are fully examined and, perhaps, mitigated.

That may serve legislators’ political agenda, but it doesn’t serve the state.

‘Secret Knowledge’ can’t be trusted I call it the Secret Knowledge.

Meaning that body of information not everyone has, that body known only to those few people who had the good sense to go off the beaten path and seek it. It is information you’ll never see in your “newspapers” or “network news” or any other place overly concerned with verifiable “facts” and reliable “sources.” It will not come to you through a university “study,” peer-reviewed

Leonard Pitts Jr.

“

lpitts@miamiherald.com

It is an Internet Age paradox: We have more information than ever before and yet, seem to know less.” “article,” renowned “expert,” government “agency” or any other such traditional bastion of authority.

No, the Secret Knowledge is the truth behind the truth, the real facts behind the facts “they” want you to believe. It unveils the conspiracies beneath the facade suckers mistake for real life.

Not incidentally, the Secret Knowledge will always confirm your worst fears.

I don’t know when the mania for Secret Knowledge began. Maybe it was when King and the Kennedys were killed and some of us could not shake a gnawing suspicion that the stories we were told were not the whole truth.

Maybe it was when a man walked on the moon and it was so amazing some of us

refused to believe it had happened. Maybe it was when Watergate shattered public trust. Maybe it was when “The X-Files” fed a shivering unease that we inhabited a world of lies within lies.

But if we can’t say for certain when the mania began, the fact that it’s here is beyond dispute. Indeed, it has spread like, well ... measles.

Ay, there’s the rub. Also the scratching.

As you have no doubt heard, that highly contagious and sometimes deadly disease, which this country declared eradicated 15 years ago, has returned. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there were fewer than 50 cases in 2002, there were 644 last year. Already this year, there have been more than 100 cases.

Authorities say much of this resurgence is due to the refusal of a growing number of parents to vaccinate their kids. The parents think the shots are dangerous, citing a 1998 study by a British doctor who claimed to

have found a link between vaccinations and autism. As it turns out, that study was debunked and retracted, and the doctor lost his license.

But the alleged link lives on, fueled by Jenny McCarthy, who has become a front woman of sorts for the antivaccination movement.

Bad enough the Secret Knowledge drives our politics (Barack Obama is a Muslim from Kenya), our perception of controversy (Trayvon Martin was a 32-year-old tough with tattoos on his neck), our understanding of environmental crisis (there is no scientific consensus on global warming) and our comprehension of tragedy (9/11 was an inside job). Apparently, it now drives healthcare, too.

So a onetime Playboy model who says she was schooled at “the University of Google” holds more sway with some of us than, say, the CDC. It is an Internet Age paradox: We have more information than ever before and yet, seem to know less. Indeed, in the Internet Age, it can be fairly

said that nothing is ever truly, finally knowable, authoritative testimony always subject to contradiction by some blogger grinding axes, some graduate of Google U, somebody who heard from somebody who heard from somebody who heard.

And let us pause here to cast shame on would-be presidents Chris Christie and Rand Paul, who both said last week that vaccinations should be a matter of parental choice, a particularly craven bit of pandering that ignores a simple principle you’d think we’d all support: your right to make irresponsible decisions about your child ends at my right to safeguard my child’s health. But in an era of designer facts and homemade truth, maybe there are no simple principles any more.

As a disease once thought over and done with comes back like some ‘90s boy band, this much seems obvious: The Secret Knowledge is just ignorance by another name.

PUBLIC FORUM

Secret process To the editor: The Journal-World’s editorial from Feb. 1 (“Closed again”) underscores a continuous flaw with Gov. Brownback and his administration.

Last year, I delivered testimony in support of changing the Court of Appeals selection process. One of the primary reasons I supported — and still support — this change is the increased transparency it brings to the process.

Unfortunately, Brownback has perverted this process by cloaking it in secrecy. The reality is the governor has become the worst advocate for this change. This administration has done enough damage with bad policies. Now they are determined to ruin good ones as well.

Patrick Wilbur, Lawrence

Tax welfare To the editor: The past decade has not been kind to our city. Compared to our peer cities, we have remained at or near the bottom in regards to wages and economic growth while our cost of living and tax burden continues to increase. The abusive use of tax abatements and special (stealth) tax districts has been a major contributor to our stagnated growth.

Within the past year, tax abatements have been awarded to developers of luxury apartments and rent-controlled housing. As the city’s taxpayers are subsidizing luxury housing, existing rental vacancies have continued to increase. Vacancy rates would not be increasing if rental housing were not overbuilt.

All real estate values are negatively affected when there is an oversupply of rental housing.

Rent-controlled housing would not exist without taxpayer subsidy. By adding tax abatements to an existing

subsidized housing project, taxpayers are subsidizing the subsidized.

At best, luxury apartments and/or rent-controlled housing will produce a minimum number of low-wage jobs.

Plus, there is no guarantee that any developer future profits will remain within our city.

Our city’s Public Incentives Review Committee is once again recommending that the public provide tax abatements for the privately owned Eldridge Hotel. Taxpayers (the many) will once again be asked to increase their tax burdens in order to benefit wealthy (the few).

We cannot allow our elected officials to continue the abusive practice of benefiting the wealthy at the expense of the diminishing middle class.

Please vote.

J. Joe Herynk, Lawrence

Children, guns To the editor: Rights are hard-won, rights have limits, rights have consequences. In 2013, the Children’s Defense Fund issued a fact sheet on children and guns in the United States. Here are just a few sobering numbers out of a much longer list which is available on their website.

1. The U.S. accounts for less than 5 percent of the global population but owns 35 percent to 50 percent of all civilian-owned guns in the world (310 million).

2. Guns are the second leading cause of death for children and teens ages 1-19 3. A child in the U.S., in this age group, is 67 times more likely to die because of a gun than a child in the U.K. 4. Since 1963, over three times more children and teens died from guns on American soil than U.S. soldiers killed in action in wars abroad (171,933:52,816).

Another atrocity To the editor: I watched on HBO, a new Holocaust movie entitled “Night Will Fall” on Jan. 26. The producers claimed it contained new British and American footage, including Russian records and personal reports, of the German atrocities against the Jews. It was truly gruesome and is beyond description regarding the complete absence of caring for the life of others by the Germans. They lived normal wartime lives without even recognizing their inhuman natures.

On Jan. 22, I attended the Right to Life Rally in Topeka where Gov. Brownback spoke regarding similar defenseless lives and SB 95 entitled the “Unborn Child Protection from Dismemberment Abortion Act” co-sponsored by 25 state senators. I know you can’t compare atrocities, but the American version of the Holocaust resulting in over 58 million deaths of the unborn is an ongoing testimony of our hardened hearts as a nation. We can grow accustomed to sin until it seems OK; that is, until someone brings us to an awareness of what we have done.

With the discovery of Nazi death camps, American military brought German locals to see what was going on in their back yards. Gen. Eisenhower brought government officials from America and allied nations to see the death camps. Perhaps we should require our prochoice government leaders and others who support abortion to witness our death clinics?

Carl E. Burkhead, Lawrence

of Prof. L. L. Dyche, today tells students of the death of Professor Dyche’s friend and comrade, Dean Frank O. Marvin, who passed away Saturday night in San Diego, California. Heart trouble was the immediate cause of his death. Forty years of loyal devotion to the State’s University is the record of Dean Marvin, and to him belongs the credit not only of upbuilding one of the strongest engineering schools in the country, but of being a dominant factor in the growth of the University as well. Dean Marvin’s influence literally touched thousands of young Kansas men who came to the University. The secret of his influence lay in the personal solicitude for each individual student, and his interest was sincere…. Dean Marvin went to California about a month ago in the hope that his health would be improved by the change…. He was 63 years old.”

Topeka — When Kansas Chief Justice Lawton Nuss gave his annual State of the Judiciary address in January, one topic was never discussed, but it was plainly visible.

During the pomp and ceremony of the occasion, just before Nuss took the podium, the bailiff asked everyone to rise as the other six justices filed in, followed by the 13 judges of the Kansas Court of COURTS Appeals. Of the 20 appellate court jurists in Kansas, only one face was nonwhite.

Appeals Court Judge Henry W. Green, an African-American, is the only nonwhite judge above the district court level in Kansas.

Second-half swoon dooms KU at OSU

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Stillwater, Okla. — Holding a comfortable 14-point lead the first half against an Oklahoma State squad playing with a fluridden Phil Forte, Kansas University’s basketball team sure looked as if it would tighten its stranglehold Saturday on the Big 12 Conference basketball race.

Things didn’t quite turn out that way.

Harassed by a fullcourt press that forced KU into seven second-half turnovers (18 overall), the Jayhawks limped to just 21 points the final 20 minutes of a 6762 defeat in Gallagher-Iba Arena.

The setback snapped KU’s five-game winning streak and dropped the Jayhawks (19-4) to 8-2 in the Big 12 — a game better than Iowa State, two better than Please see KANSAS, page 4B

Kansas only so-so on road ————

Jayhawks haven’t developed road-warrior mentality — yet Stillwater, Okla. — The road to the Big 12 title runs through Lawrence, so many supporters of Kansas University’s basketball team are so proud of saying so frequently.

Think about it, though: It’s the toughness and talent required to win when the Jayhawks hit the road out of Lawrence that has been the key to winning 10 consecutive Big 12 titles.

So far, so-so in seven true road games for Kansas, after falling from 14 points ahead

and losing to Oklahoma State, 67-62, in front of 10,399 fans, many of whom stormed Gallagher-Iba Arena in celebration of another so-called upset against Kansas.

Winning on the road requires having the toughness to finish shots through contact on plays that draw a whistle at home, but not on the road. It demands silencing the crowd with a string of aggressive plays when the home team’s on a roll. It means bouncing off the ropes when getting pummeled, moving the fight to the center of the ring and steadily backing the home team onto the Please see KEEGAN, page 5B

KU women stand by in loss to OSU

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Aggressors early Saturday night at Allen Fieldhouse, Kansas University’s women’s basketball players became bystanders too often for coach Bonnie Henrickson’s liking late against Oklahoma State.

A drop-off in the Jayhawks’ activity first reared

its head on offense, when OSU switched to a 2-3 zone, but it got worse on a key possession in the final minute, on the way to a 65-57 KU loss.

The Jayhawks led by as many as 15 points midway through the first half. But by the final minute of the game, they trailed OSU (14-8 overall, 4-7 Big 12) by three. That’s when LaShawn

Jones, who scored 12 points and had nine rebounds off the bench, missed a layup, gathered the ball off the floor as the Jayhawks watched and put it through the net to give the visitors a two-possession cushion, 6156, with 33 seconds to play.

The sequence, indicative of both OSU’s 45-31 rebounding advantage and its 40-26 lead in points in

the paint, left Henrickson peeved. “It’s on the floor. Chelsea (Gardner, 18 points) falls, (Jones) steps over Chelsea and grabs it, and we don’t have anybody that goes and dives on it,� the coach John Young/Journal-World Photo complained. “I don’t know if they thought the ball was PINK IS THE PREDOMINANT HUE IN ALLEN out of bounds.

Sources say Kings may turn to Karl as coach Sacramento, Calif. (ap) — The Kings are engaged in intense conversations with George Karl about their headcoaching position, multiple sources have told The Sacramento Bee. Assistant Tyrone Corbin replaced Michael Malone on Dec. 14 after the Kings faltered to a 2-8 record during DeMarcus Cousins’ absence due to viral meningitis. The plan was to have Corbin complete the season, conduct an extensive coaching search, and give the incoming coach the benefit of an entire offseason and training camp.

Besides Karl, an ESPN analyst who is known for dramatically improving franchises, particularly in Denver, Seattle and Milwaukee, the list of future candidates is known to include current NBA assistants Alvin Gentry and Nate McMillan, along with head coaches whose job security is thought to be tenuous, among them Tom Thibodeau and Scott Brooks.

But the Kings’ ongoing slump — and jarring absence of com-

While a change is not imminent, multiple sources told The Bee late Friday that the combination of Karl’s innovative coaching and immediate availability has won over team officials who weeks ago expressed concern about a possible personality clash with Cousins.

The overriding factor at this point appears to be financial: Karl would command an annual salary upwards of $4 million, a major potential sticking point given that the Kings will continue to pay Malone through the 2015-16 season. Additionally, teams with more attractive rosters are expected to have coaching vacancies at the end of the year, and Karl, who maintains a high profile partly owing to his ESPN appearances, is thought to be heavily pursued.

One other note of interest, though, is Karl’s preference to remain in the West, along with his personal affinity for Sacramento. Though he referred to himself as a “Seattle guy,” he was a vocal advocate of keeping the Kings in Sacramento.

FSHS second, LHS fifth at league swimming

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Olathe — Free State High senior swimmer Jack Ziegler felt good entering the Sunflower League finals on Saturday afternoon at Prairie Trail Junior High.

When he jumped into the pool, he felt even better. One day after tying the league record in the 50-yard freestyle, Ziegler shattered the league meet’s record and his own school record with a time of 21.08, capturing a league title.

Once Ziegler saw his time on the scoreboard, he jumped in the air, as his teammates cheered

all screaming over there to grab it, and she just steps over Chelsea and grabs it and scores it.�

From there, KU senior Asia Boyd missed a three-pointer. and OSU’s Roshunda Johnson hit a pair of free throws with 17 seconds remaining to push the lead to seven.

Jones’ last-minute bucket gave OSU 19 second-chance points.

Said Boyd: “I thought the ball was out of bounds.�

Kansas freshman point guard Lauren Aldridge saw the play from nearby, on the baseline. “I think everybody was kind of at a standstill for a minute, and then they were like, ‘Oh, the ball’s still in play.’ It was kind of a weird ordeal,� Aldridge said following her 14-point, five-assist night.

But KU had plenty

from the pool deck. But that wasn’t the only celebration as Ziegler also won the 100 freestyle, sophomore Jordan Portela won two league titles and Free State had two, champion relay teams, which both broke league meet records.

The Firebirds took second place in the league standings, their highest finish since 2004. Shawnee Mission East won the league’s team title with 342 points, 79 ahead of Free State. “We looked at (SM East’s) depth, we knew ahead of time,� FSHS coach Annette McDonald said. “So if you can’t win the whole thing, what

more issues, especially late. Kansas had 13 turnovers, six in a five-minute span of the second half.

After Boyd (11 points, 12 rebounds off the bench) hit a three with 6:25 to play, the Jayhawks led 54-50. Then they had four turnovers in next three minutes. “We can’t score if we don’t get shots,� Henrickson said. “Then we don’t score.�

Indeed, Kansas went ice-cold late as its struggled to solve the Oklahoma State 2-3 zone. The Jayhawks, within one point of OSU with 2:57 to play, missed their final eight shot attempts and only converted one of their last 11.

Between OSU’s balance — 16 points apiece from Brittney Martin and Roshunda Johnson, 13 from Liz Donohoe and 12 from Jones — and KU getting nothing late, the Jayhawks fell to 13-11 overall and 4-7 in the Big 12.

KU will play Tuesday at West Virginia.

Short memory, press keys for OSU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Stillwater, Okla. — Although the Cowboys stayed in the locker room at halftime for about 10 minutes, a 30-second message from Oklahoma State coach Travis Ford was all the Oklahoma State men’s basketball team needed to turn an 11-point deficit at the break into a five-point victory over No. 8 Kansas University.

“When we came in at halftime, coach Ford just said, ‘Forget it,’” recalled OSU senior Le’Bryan Nash. “‘Every time we make a basket, we’re pressing.’”

Nash, who led all scorers with 18 points and was dubbed the best player in the game by KU coach Bill Self, said the Cowboys had talked all week about pressing Kansas (19-4 overall, 8-2 Big 12) and added he believed OSU could “press them all day.”

But Ford, who had to juggle foul trouble, his regular rotation, wear and tear and the circumstances of the game, was not as willing to unleash the press from the opening tip because he did not want to wear his players down.

That all changed after KU scored 41 points, shot

57 percent and drained seven of nine three-pointers in the first half. Nash made sure of it.

“We were asking coach Ford to put it in,” Nash said of the press. “And he was trying to make sure fatigue was good for us, and we just told him, ‘Bring it on. We don’t care. We want to win this game.’”

With the adjustment clearly communicated and the Cowboys’ 11-point deficit providing a glimmer of hope, considering they felt they should have been down by 20, Ford reminded his team of the tweak one final time.

“I told the guys right

before we went on the court to start the second half, ‘The press needs to be a difference-maker.

The press has to change the game,’” Ford said.

“And I thought it did.”

And the ways in which Oklahoma State’s fullcourt pressure changed things went beyond forcing KU to turn the ball over, which the Jayhawks did 18 times in the game.

“It was more about us than them,” Ford said.

“We did turn them over some and sped them up, but it got us in attack mode, and I thought we were more aggressive.”

OSU’s 14-0 run to open

the second half followed a Wayne Selden Jr. free throw and took just 3:31.

Although the Jayhawks quickly tied the game at 44 and again at 49, Kansas never led after that.

“I thought we’d make a run,” Ford said. “But we got back into it a little quicker than we thought.”

Saturday’s victory capped a memorable week for the Cowboys (16-7, 6-5), who defeated Texas in overtime on the road three days before topping Kansas.

Still, as sweet as that win over the Longhorns was, both Ford and Nash said there’s something extra-

special about beating Kansas, which Ford has done more times (four) than any other coach since the 2008-09 season.

“That makes me smile a lot,” Nash said. “When you play the best team in the Big 12, you always want to prove you can compete with them, and every year this is the game that we circle on our calendar. We want to prove that we’re better than them every year.”

Added Ford: “It was a good win because of the respect we have for Kansas.

Period. Against one of the better teams in the country.

It was very gratifying.”

West Virginia, Oklahoma and Baylor.

“I don’t think overconfidence was it. I think overall competitive attitude was it,” KU coach Bill Self said of the huge discrepancy in halves.

The Jayhawks led by 11 — 41-30 — at the break.

“You can’t look at any individual on our team and say they had a good game,” Self assessed after KU hit seven of nine three-pointers the first half, just three of 11 after the break. “We had a couple guys make some shots. We didn’t play very well, didn’t coach them very well, didn’t do anything very well today.”

The Jayhawks did pass the eye test in scoring 41 points the first half off 56.5 percent shooting.

The second half? Not so pretty. KU hit eight of 30 shots for 26.7 percent against an OSU team that improved to 16-7 overall and 6-5 in the league.

“Just the fluidity,” KU sophomore Brannen Greene said of KU’s second-half woes. He hit three three-pointers and scored 10 points the first half, but failed to score in the second half. “When they started pressuring us, we started our offense farther out than we wanted to. It just threw off everything. When you are able to start the offense around the three-point line, you are in scoring position.

We weren’t in scoring

They got after us, and some of us got rattled.”

OSU used a 14-0 run to erase the entire deficit and grab a 44-42 lead just 31⁄2 minutes into the second half.

“No excuses. They outplayed us the second half and pulled it out,” added Greene.

“We’ve still got a onegame lead. It would have been nice to keep the two.

Things happen,” he said.

Self didn’t blame the press entirely for KU’s woes.

“I don’t think we turned it over a ton because of their pressure. It got us out of rhythm some,” Self said.

“When we did turn it over, we got passive and obviously didn’t play aggressive. We did look bad early second half against their pressure. I’m not sure that was the biggest reason we lost the game. The biggest thing is, we rebound the ball so soft. We were 20-9 on the boards the first half.

They flippped the switch on us the second half (outrebounding KU, 26-15).

Our rotation rebounding was awful.”

Self did concede his Jayhawks, “didn’t come out ready to play the second half. Wayne (Selden Jr., 15 points, 4-for-5 from three) has a breakaway, slows down and lets a guy foul him from behind. Instead of it being an ‘andone,’ we make one of two (from line).

“We take the ball out and throw it to them and they score. That kind of took the lid off the basket for them (to open second half),” Self added.

As far as which player the team should look to bring energy at the start of lethargic halves, Self responded: “I think we should look to Jamari.

Obviously that was not good today,” he added after Jamari Traylor suffered six turnovers while scoring eight points and grabbing six boards.

Junior Perry Ellis had 10 points off 4-of-10 shooting.

“We never got him going at all. We need him to be a good player for us, to be a numbers guy. He got 10 rebounds, which is positive, but he has to do more than score limited points,” Self said. “Because he’s our best offensive player.”

KU, which fell behind by as many as seven points (59-52 at 7:21), did have a chance down the stretch. Self called time with 41.9 seconds left and 24 on the shot clock, the Jayhawks trailing by three points, 65-62. Frank Mason III and Greene missed inside shots, and OSU immediately converted a layup on the other end, the students at that point preparing their mad dash onto the court after the final buzzer.

“We ran ‘elevator door’ for Brannen (trying to get him a three),” Self said.

“They got through it, and

“I don’t know if that was when Perry got the ball knocked out of his hand.

From my angle it looked like maybe we should be shooting free throws,” Self added of an inside shot by Ellis at 1:48 with KU down four. “Brannen had the ball at three feet.

He tried to jump over a guy. Obviously didn’t score. Those were two biggest plays late.”

OKLAHOMA STATE STUDENTS AND FANS RUSH THE COURT following the Cowboys’ victory over KU.

NOTEBOOK

‘T’ surprises Kansas’ Mason

ropes near another corner of the ring.

Kansas did none of that Saturday, and its record in true road games dropped to 4-3 overall, 3-2 in the Big 12.

The seeds of trouble for Kansas were planted in a first half in which both teams attempted nine three-point shots.

Kansas made seven, Oklahoma State none, a 21-point swing, yet Kansas led by 11, not 21, thanks largely to 11 turnovers on the way to 18 for the game. Inside the arc, where shots are contested, Kansas made just 11 field goals in the game and shot .333.

Really good road teams know how to take the venom of the enemy crowd and unfriendly whistles, even a phantom technical, and convert them to us-against-theworld fuel. Road warriors figure out how to scale all those hurdles.

Consistently. That doesn’t mean they always win. Nobody does. It means they find a way to play with what coach Bill Self called, “competitive attitude,” a word-combination he used to describe what disappointed him most.

This Kansas team, not as mature as many, doesn’t seem fully to

Stillwater, Okla. — Kansas University sophomore Frank Mason III was hit with a technical foul with 2:40 left in the first half and the Jayhawks leading Oklahoma State by 11 points in what ultimately turned into a 67-62 defeat Saturday in Gallagher-Iba Arena.

“I saw Brannen (Greene) surrounded by the Oklahoma State players (after a tie up with KU on offense). I kind of went over there. I just said, ‘Everyone chill out,’ and that’s it.” Mason said.

“He gave me a technical for saying, ‘Everyone chill out.’ Yeah, I was very surprised. I didn’t think I deserved a tech for that. I didn’t say it directly toward anyone. I don’t see why I would get a tech for that.” l

KANSAS FORWARD CLIFF ALEXANDER, LEFT, AND FORWARD PERRY ELLIS (34) are escorted from the court as Oklahoma State students flood the floor. realize that the word Kansas stripped across the chest does not make an opposing team or crowd wilt. Instead, it emboldens them.

Double-digit deficits don’t startle KU opponents. You play KU, chances are good that at some point you’re going to trail by double digits.

The Cowboys seemed to look at it as getting the inevitable out of the way and then getting to work.

An emotional Allen Fieldhouse victory such as Monday’s vs. Iowa State can drive so much worship into the ears of the players that it can make the critical lessons taught in practice during the week more difficult to hear.

Might Self have seen this coming?

“I don’t know if I saw

KANSAS COACH BILL SELF SHOWS HIS FRUSTRATION after a string of second-half turnovers by the Jayhawks. it coming, per se,” Self said. “They were good, so if I say we were really bad, it takes away from them being good, which I

shouldn’t do that, so I’m not going to. But we certainly didn’t play the way we have played in prior games, with the energy or with the intellect or the paying attention to scouting report that we didn’t do today. We’ve been better than that.”

Including on another school’s home court.

KU won at Georgetown, Baylor, Texas and TCU, and the first three came against talented opponents. The combined margin of victory is 22 points in the four true road games. The combined margin of loss in the three true road games is 35 points, including a 25-point setback at Temple. Kansas is far better now than before Christmas, but it doesn’t yet have the road thing down.

Oubre held to one point: KU freshman guard Kelly Oubre Jr. scored one point in 14 minutes. He missed three floor shots, hit one of two free throws and had three rebounds in 14 minutes.

“I don’t think he played as well,” coach Bill Self said. “Kelly is a really good player. When he is playing with energy and defending, rebounding and doing those things, offense comes easier. I didn’t think anybody did those things well today.” l

Tough building: Self was asked about KU having difficulty winning in Gallagher-Iba. “I don’t know our record here. I don’t think it’s very good, 3-5 or something like that,” he said, correctly identifying KU’s 3-5 mark in Stillwater in the Self era.

“They were just better than us today. Le’Bryan (Nash, 18 points, five rebounds) was best player in the game. I thought Hickey (Anthony, 15 points, three boards) played well. We did a good job on Forte (Phil, 13 points).

He only got off one good look against us. He made us pay when we didn’t hedge ball screen. This is a great building. I don’t follow Oklahoma State basketball close enough to know what kind of homecourt they have on a consistent basis. When we’ve been here, it’s been a good home court. I think their players feed off it.” l

Final Four squad cheered: OSU honored its 1995 Final Four team and coach Eddie Sutton at halftime. l

Stats, facts: The game drew 10,399 fans in an arena that seats 13,611. ...

KU leads the all-time series, 110-56. ... OSU won its second-straight over KU in Gallagher-Iba Arena, tying the series at 33-33 inside the facility. ... Self is 344-73 at KU, 13-7 against OSU as KU coach. ... For the first time this season, KU lost when leading at halftime and is now 15-1 in such games. ... KU was behind with five minutes left for the fifth time and is 1-4 in those contests. ... KU hit a season-best 78 percent (7-for-9) from three in the opening 20 minutes. l

Individual notes: Freshman Devonté Graham drew his fourth charge of the season (Nash) in the first half. That ties him with Mason for the team lead. ... Graham has 29 assists to four turnovers in nine games since returning from an injury against Georgetown on Dec. 10, 2014. ... Greene went 3-for-5 from three-point range to give him a 62.1 percent mark (18-of-29) in Big 12 games. ... Aside from a trip to TCU, where he did not attempt a three, Greene has made multiple threes in five of the last six games. He is 15-of-21 (71.4 percent) during that span.

For the season, Greene is shooting 51.6 percent (32-of-62) from three. ...

Mason scored 10 points and extended his doubledigit scoring streak to 20-straight games.

MUSICIAN KATLYN CONROY OF THE BAND LA GUERRE is pictured with one of her cats, Weatherby. For $20, Conroy will write a Valentine’s Day love song for anyone who wants one, and she has written over 20 so far. “It’s finding all these different ways to say, I love you,” she says.

ou’d think that people would have had enough of silly love songs, or so sings Paul McCartney on the 1976 Wings track.

But Katlyn Conroy, a local musician who is writing and performing personalized tunes for customers for Valentine’s Day, looks around Lawrence and notices it isn’t so.

“I had no idea if many people would actually jump on board, but it’s been really good,” Conroy, 26, says of her business venture.

“I’ve had over 20 orders so far.”

For $20, anyone can hire Conroy — a longtime staple of the Lawrence music scene, currently of La Guerre and previously with the popular band Cowboy Indian Bear — to write a song for a friend or loved one and then record it. Throw down another $10 and receive her newest La Guerre album, “Sapphires,” along with a hand drawing (also by Conroy) of you and that special someone.

Originally, the deadline to submit orders was Feb.

Open President’s Day!

LOVE SONGS To hire Katlyn Conroy and La Guerre to write a love song for your Valentine, send an email to katlynconroymusic@gmail.com with your name and your story (the more details the better) by Tuesday. Conroy will also do cover songs or in a particular style of your choosing.

7, but because of popular demand, Conroy will take requests up until Tuesday — though they might not make it back to the customer by Valentine’s Day. “My boyfriend keeps telling me, ‘You can stop when you want to,’” jokes Conroy, who says she hasn’t felt overwhelmed by it all — yet.

Love songs, Conroy says, come natural to her.

She’s been writing them for years — “for boys” and the people she cares about — but never for complete strangers.

‘Jupiter Ascending’ a glorious mess A ndy and Lana Wachowski are risktaking filmmakers with vision that cannot be contained, at least not within the confines of a big-studio picture.

After the kinetic, layered unreality of their underappreciated live-action adaptation of “Speed Racer” and the big-theme ensemble of “Cloud Atlas” — which spans hundreds of years into the past and future — the writer/director siblings return with “Jupiter Ascending” to the standard Hollywood mode of fantasy storytelling: the hero’s journey.

But it’s painfully clear how disinterested the Wachowskis are with following the classic formula.

In “Jupiter Ascending,” which features Mila Kunis as a house-cleaner who turns out to be the queen of the universe(s), they struggle to stay on course, constantly sidetracked by their own fetishes and bigpicture themes — which, it turns out, are way more fun and interesting than the actual plot.

“Jupiter Ascending” may be an unfocused mess, but as far as bigbudget sci-fi fantasies go, it’s one of the most entertaining messes ever.

John Travolta’s passion project “Battlefield Earth” is widely considered to be one of the worst of the genre, for being an unremarkable, joyless, rehash of genre tropes — and one with an agenda to boot. The way its press is trending, “Jupiter Ascending” may go down in history as being a similar kind of mess, but I bristle at the very suggestion.

You see, “Jupiter Ascending,” which co-stars Channing Tatum as some kind of dog-werewolfalien hybrid who’s tasked with protecting Kunis, isn’t a by-the-books fantasy, even if it is supposed to be. It’s full of Gonzo passion. You can feel it in every frame.

Last year when it was announced that the film’s release would be delayed until 2015, it was clear its commercial prospects were in trouble and that there would be tinkering to get it ready. Now that it’s here, it clocks in at just over two hours, and it doesn’t make a lick of sense.

The Wachowskis’ breakthrough 1999 film “The Matrix” was

violence, sequences of sci-fi action, some suggestive content and partial nudity.

Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis in “Jupiter Ascending” “Jupiter Ascending” is not a standard-issue fantasy picture, which means he fits in well with the Wachowskis’ other flights of fancy.

The Wachowskis’ continuing obsession with reincarnation, blurry gender lines, alternate realities and new modes of action — all present again here — are just some of the reasons that the film’s diversions are where it’s at. These strange and wonderful eric@scene-stealers.com fetishes are baked into the movie’s DNA, even as the screenplay tries to follow familiar tropes. a model of efficient Tatum has more than storytelling in the mode one thrilling chase scene of the hero’s journey. where he skates across In “Jupiter Ascending,” the sky, his boots using Kunis’ character wakes up, much like Neo, to the gravity against itself to keep him afloat.

sive whole. It’s easy to argue that better filmmakers would have been able to wrangle their divergent themes and digressions into a movie that satisfies on some “normal” level, but this movie strikes me as one that was compromised from the beginning.

The Wachowskis have proven once again that it’s impossible for

them to make a boring movie. If there’s a longer director’s cut released on home video, it may be closer to their complete vision, I suppose, but who cares? This vision is personal, and it’s a refreshing break from the codified fantasy world Hollywood usually serves up.

“Jupiter Ascending” is rated PG-13 for some

‘A Most Violent Year’ J.C. Chandor (“All is Lost,” “Margin Call”) has fashioned a handsome ‘70s-era crime drama in his New York-set “A Most Violent Year,” now playing at Liberty Hall. It looks and feels like a throwback, from Oscar Isaac’s Pacino-esque delivery as a heating oil businessman to the period costumes. Set in 1981, it’s a compelling drama that chronicles one man’s resistance to the mob violence overtaking his industry.

Jessica Chastain, David Oyelowo and Albert Brooks provide sturdy backup, while composer Alex Ebert channels the synth-heavy vibe of the early ’80s. “A Most Violent Year” has a slow pace, but rarely a misstep in terms of its storytelling.

“A Most Violent Year” is rated R for language and some violence.

Patricia Lockwood turns a page ——————

After successful year, local writer discusses fame, her next book and ghostbusting potatoes been legitimately jarring is that I’ve gotten recognized a couple of times in the grocery store. Why the grocery store? No one looks good when they go to the grocery store!

Recognize me when I’m at the mall, getting my picture taken at Glamour Shots!”

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

The last year was a big one for Patricia Lockwood. In the months since we last wrote about the celebrated poet (who is married to Journal-World Copy Chief Jason Kendall), Lockwood published her second collection of poems, “Motherland Fatherland Homelandsexuals” to critical acclaim and was the subject of a New York Times profile that branded her “The Smutty Metaphor Queen of Lawrence, Kansas.”

As 2014 winded down, Lockwood and her book began popping up on several best-of-the-year lists from publications as varied as The Boston Globe, The Chicago Tribune, Buzzfeed, Flavorwire, and more locally, The Pitch. She even showed up on Rolling Stone’s Hot List for 2014.

She’s continued to receive lots of love from The New York Times as well — the journalistic institution named “Motherland” a “New York Times Book Review Notable Book” and invited Lockwood to discuss the role of social issues in art alongside panelists like Ken Burns and J. Cole.

So, what’s next for the recent Lawrence transplant? There’s a new book on the way, a memoir estimated to hit bookshelves in 2016 (and maybe a few Glamour Shots, too).

She’s writing a new book, and it’s not poetry “The process has been pretty organic. I set aside the first year of work for thinking and woolgathering, accumulating material, jotting down funny scenes, writing experimental and lyrical bits, polishing little descriptions and character sketches that I thought would fit somewhere.

It’s possible to write a poetry book that comes in under 500 words, but this doesn’t fly in any other genre, it turns out. So I’ve set myself a steady schedule where I’m finishing a chapter every two weeks, no excuses, and it’s humming along beautifully so far.”

“As soon as the official deal was struck, my mom achieved new heights of quotability.

Whenever she saw my notebook come out, she would slyly pretend not to notice and then deliver herself of some miraculous koan.

I’ve read her a couple of chapters out loud — the ones where she features most prominently.” … And a proud papa, too “My dad has more of a live-and-let-live attitude about the whole endeavor. He doesn’t read my books, but he’s proud of the fact of them. When the interviewer from The New York Times Magazine asked him about it, he said simply, ‘People belong to themselves. She came from us, but she’s not us.’ That’s a good view to take of it, I think, and in turn I’m trying to depict them as fully and roundly as possible.”

Will ‘Mockingbird’ follow-up meet lofty expectations?

By Chicago Tribune

The following editorial appeared in the Chicago Tribune on Friday, Feb. 6: One day in about 2005, novelist Harper Lee was having breakfast at a diner near her Alabama home when a fan, apologizing for the intrusion, approached to express admiration for Lee’s sole work, “To Kill a Mockingbird.”

The two chatted, Lee was gracious, the thrilled reader departed. Then Lee, who fiercely protects her privacy, reflected on the encounter.

“I hope I didn’t disappoint her,” she said.

A beloved author revealing her insecurity and perfectionism? Lee, a master of dialogue and detail, would have recognized the poignancy immediately if she had observed it.

Writer Marja Mills was at that breakfast and tells us Lee’s reaction helps explain why the author never published again. “That’s the weight of expectation,” says Mills, who befriended Harper Lee and her sister, Alice Lee, and wrote of the experience in a memoir, “The Mockingbird Next Door.”

Mills was as surprised as anyone by this week’s news that Harper Lee wrote another novel, which will be published this summer.

More than a decade ago Alice Lee specifically told

PRESIDENT BUSH, RIGHT, SHARES A LAUGH with author Harper Lee, as he presented her with the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Nov. 5, 2007.

Mills, then a Chicago Tribune reporter, there was no second book because her sister said what she intended to say in “Mockingbird.” And who could blame her? Imagine sitting down as a neophyte to write the Great American Novel and then pulling it off! What do you do for an encore?

“To Kill a Mockingbird” is a marvel of storytelling, a perfect rendering of small town life in the segregated Deep South. The book tells in flashback the adventures of a young scamp, Scout, and how her father, principled attorney Atticus Finch, comes to represent a black farmhand accused of rape. With its big themes and little moments, “Mockingbird” won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize.

And then?

There are many great literary traditions in America, and one is the disappearing act, as practiced by Salinger and Pynchon. Lee’s version has its peculiarities: She was never a recluse, just private. She stopped giving interviews and split time between a New York apartment and a modest house she shared with her sister in their hometown of Monroeville, Ala. Harper Lee, 88, suffered a stroke in 2007; her sister died last year at 103. Now Lee’s second book has been found. She says in a statement that she’s pleased it was unearthed and is considered “worthy of publication.”

The publisher says he never spoke directly with

Gritty Wilder memoir a blockbuster Pierre, S.D. (ap) — The autobiography of prairie author Laura Ingalls Wilder, which gives a grittier view of frontier living than her popular “Little House” series for children, is proving to be a blockbuster for the South Dakota Historical Society Press.

“Pioneer Girl: The Annotated Autobiography,” edited by Pamela Smith Hill, was released in November by the small state-owned publishing house. The memoir, written for an adult audience, was the No. 1 best-seller on Amazon.com in late January and was still in the Top 10 on Friday, at No. 6.

“This is a definite blockbuster,” publishing house director Nancy Tystad Koupal told the Rapid City Journal. “I’m

surprised, delighted and excited that Laura Ingalls Wilder’s work still has such resonance with readers.”

Wilder wrote her autobiography in the early 1930s. By then, she had been settled on her Missouri farm for decades, but her early life took the Ingalls family on a journey that includes what today is Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas and South Dakota.

The initial print run of the book was 15,000 copies. A second run of 15,000 copies was made, and a third run of 45,000 copies is on the press. A fourth run is now being considered, according to Tystad Koupal.

“We have no cause for complaint, but just keeping up with the pace of it can be hard,” she said.

“We have no more staff than we had before, so it means everybody is working double time.”

Sioux Falls native Katie Franke received “Pioneer Girl” as a gift from a coworker and is displaying it on the coffee table in her Burnsville, Minn., home, while she reads it.

“Growing up in South Dakota, Laura Ingalls is kind of a topic you can’t escape,” Franke told the Argus Leader.

VALENTINE’S DAY SPECIALS AT ANNEDORE’S CONFECTIONERS, 5000 State Line Road, include chocolate hearts and chocolate-dipped strawberries.

Confection affection T

here are few things in this world as wellreceived as the gift of chocolate. And whether it’s a Valentine’s Day present, something to butter up your coworkers, or just a treat for yourself, quality matters. This week we’ll look at some of the best chocolatiers and confectionaries in the Kansas City area before a quick preview of what’s on stage this week.

Since Andre Bollier and his wife, Elsbeth, first immigrated to Kansas City from Basel, Switzerland, in 1955, Andre’s Confiserie Suisse at 5018 Main St. has served a wide variety of chocolate truffles, tortes, caramels, pastries, cookies and specialty items.

Today, Andre’s is run by the family’s second and third generations, who have overseen its expansion and the addition of a second area location at 4929 W. 119th St. in Overland Park.

In addition to the chocolates and pastries at the Main Street location, Andre’s Tea Room serves authentic Swiss lunches from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Dishes are served from a fixed menu that is viewable at andreschocolates.com, with rotating specialties including curried chicken, pork loin roast, cod Florentine and poulet shnitzel (quiche Lorraine

While you’re in the neighborhood, walk down the block to Hi Hat Coffee, a former filling station turned coffee shop that serves specialty coffee drinks Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

No mention of area chocolate specialists would be complete without including Christopher Elbow, probably the city’s most celebrated chocolatier in recent history.

Christopher Elbow’s chocolates are famous for their delightful flavors (lime cardamom, vanilla pecan, rosemary caramel, spiced orange) as well as their bright, detailed designs, which look like miniature abstract paintings.

At about $2 a piece, they aren’t especially cheap, but they’re a good way to send a message to your special someone that you hold them in the highest regard. With any luck they will appreciate you enough to share a little in return.

Visit Christopher Elbow’s store at 1819 McGee St. in the Crossroads from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Monday through Friday, or shop online at elbowchocolates.com. You can also find them in Lawrence at Au Marche.

Sister constantly lies about college degrees Dear Annie: I am the youngest of three sisters.

My oldest sister, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Betty,â&#x20AC;? lies about everything, from her relationships to her education. When Betty was younger, my mother thought sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d outgrow this phase, but it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happened. Betty is 48, and her stories have only become more detailed. Her specialty is claiming various college degrees.

In the past three years, Betty has told people she has degrees in marketing, finance, sociology and engineering. She says this on her social media pages and on her employment website profile. But Betty has never attended more than a couple of classes at the local junior college, although my sister and I both have degrees.

We are very worried about Betty. She often seems sad. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t un-

Annieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

derstand why she tells these tall tales. Betty is a fantastic baker, cook and artist, and she runs marathons. My sister thinks Betty should get counseling, but Mom pleads with us not to say anything to her. Betty becomes defensive whenever anyone questions her college education.

Should I approach Betty about this? How do I let her know that she is loved with or without a degree? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to embarrass her. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Con-

Intimate â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Jinxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defies classification The lines between fiction and fact, drama and documentary continue to blur. The sixpart documentary â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durstâ&#x20AC;? (7 p.m., HBO) offers a remarkably intimate look at the heir to a New York real estate fortune and a suspect in at least three murders over a three-decade span.

In a case of life imitating, or even instigating, art, Durst agreed to extensive filmed interviews with the director Andrew Jarecki after seeing his 2010 film â&#x20AC;&#x153;All Good Things,â&#x20AC;? based on Durstâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own story. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jinxâ&#x20AC;? combines this footage with a wealth of artful re-enactments, news footage and interviews with colorful characters who have followed the cases for decades, including the friends and relatives of Durstâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s missing wife, Durstâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estranged brother, Fox News personality and former Westchester County D.A. Jeanine Pirro and Texas lawyer Dick DeGuerin, a man who would not look out of place in a Hollywood adaptation of a John Grisham novel.

Editor and co-producer Zac Stuart-Pontier has managed to weave such visually disparate material into a mesmerizing whole. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jinxâ&#x20AC;? unfolds with the intensity of Errol Morrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Thin Blue Line.â&#x20AC;? The jaw-dropping revelations of peculiar characters may evoke memories of Werner Herzogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grizzly Man.â&#x20AC;?

But those were films viewed in a single sitting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jinxâ&#x20AC;? unfolds over six weeks. Will viewers want to spend so much time with this mystery? HBO certainly hopes so. And the premium networkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s imprimatur certainly helps â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jinxâ&#x20AC;? rise above the clutter of lurid true-crime TV docudramas on the ID network and elsewhere.

An audience for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jinxâ&#x20AC;? may emerge, not from other networks, or even art house cinemas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jinxâ&#x20AC;? may provide the perfect follow-up show for fans who had been addicted to the much buzzed-about public radio podcast â&#x20AC;&#x153;Serial.â&#x20AC;?

Tonightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other highlights

LL Cool J hosts the 57th annual Grammy Awards (7 p.m., CBS).

Bates assures Anna on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Downton Abbeyâ&#x20AC;? on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Masterpiece Classicâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings).

BIRTHDAYS Composer-conductor John Williams is 83. Actor Nick Nolte is 74. Actress Mary Steenburgen is 62. Author John Grisham is 60.

cerned One of Three Dear Concerned: Betty may feel that she needs a college degree in order to measure up to her siblings. Your assurances that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great cook and artist may not be prestigious enough in her eyes.

In order for Betty to stop lying, she would need to want to change her behavior, which can be done with counseling if she is willing to put forth the effort.

But you cannot force her to do this. In the meantime, her lies hurt no one but herself, so please simply accept her as she is, and let her know how much you love her and that you want her to be happy.

Simple steps on getting the best emergency care Every year, 785,000 people in the United States have their first heart attack. The good news is that by following a few simple steps, the chances of surviving a heart attack are better than ever. Here, Emily Mueller, Cardiac Catheterization Lab (Cath Lab) Registered Nurse at Lawrence Memorial Hospital gives some tips on getting the best emergency heart care possible.

1. EDUCATE YOURSELF Mueller said that the first step in increasing the chances of positive outcomes for heart patients is for people to work with their primary care physicians to educate themselves on risk factors, heart attack symptoms and what to do if they experience a heart attack.

“Educated patients lead to better care,” said Mueller. “Those people who have read and learned about all the things they are supposed to do usually react better when the situation occurs.” said Mueller.

2. LISTEN TO YOUR BODY Some of the most common heart attack symptoms include pain in the chest, jaw, neck or abdomen, shortness of breath, nausea and vomiting. Mueller emphasized that symptoms can vary quite a bit from person to person, so it is important that people listen to their bodies and not dismiss any symptoms they are experiencing.

“Everybody’s body is different,” said Mueller. “One person may just have chest pain, while another may not have chest pain at all, but will have jaw pain and nausea. Going to the hospital and learning that you are not having a heart attack is better than staying at home waiting out a heart attack that may seriously damage the heart.”

From left to right: Emily Mueller RN, Wally Brannen RN, Stephanie Spears RT, Sandy Malik RN, Dr. Tapas Ghose, Rob Timberlake RCIS. Not pictured is Bernice Hiner RT RCIS, Zam Zam Salad, Cardiovascular Tech and PRN staff Becky Squires RN, Rachel Tate RN.

3. DON’T DELAY - CALL 911 This most crucial step in surviving a heart attack is seeking medical attention quickly. Calling 911 is hands-down the best way to do this.

Driving yourself or being driven to the hospital during a heart attack is not only dangerous, it also increases the time before medical treatment can begin. Mueller said studies show that calling 911 can speed up a patient’s treatment process by up to an hour.

“Time is important if you really are having a heart attack and emergency personal can move things along more quickly,” said Mueller. “If the heart attack is serious it is better to have emergency personal there to assist you.”

Once a patient is through the doors of Lawrence Memorial Hospital, heart patients benefit from the on-site Cath Lab, which is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Cath Lab’s staff can quickly assess the severity of blocked arteries and vessels, which

means that LMH’s interventional cardiologists Dr. Roger Dreiling or Dr. Tapas Ghose can place catheters & / or stents to restore blood flow to the heart in a timely fashion.

Being able to perform these procedures on-site means that LMH has favorable “door-to-balloon time”

averages. Door to balloon time refers to the amount of time that passes between the patient entering the hospital and blood flow being restored to the heart. The national benchmark for door to balloon time is 90 minutes. In 2014, LMH’s average door to balloon time was 55 minutes.

A SURVIVOR’S STORY

KNOW YOUR

NUMBERS

L

Last April, I became a member of the coronary artery disease (CAD) club.

I didn’t ask to join, but my other option was worse: becoming a statistic… another preventable death from heart disease.

It runs in my family.

My mother, grandfather and brother all had heart attacks between ages 49 and 77, so I tried to be proactive about my heart health. I have always been conscious about eating and cooking healthy and managing my weight. I saw my doctor regularly – no cholesterol or blood pressure problems. I took a low-dose statin as a preventive measure and maintained a clean bill of health – or so it seemed.

Then strange symptoms showed up, symptoms I ignored for too long. Fatigue at first, then aching in my upper back, upper chest, neck and jaw. I chocked it up to pinched nerves from marathon sewing sessions, a favorite pastime of mine.

Over the next few weeks, my symptoms grew harder to dismiss. With mild dizziness and shortness of breath just going upstairs, it finally dawned on me that things were getting worse, so I called my doctor’s office and spoke to his nurse.

“Go straight to the emergency room,” she instructed after consulting with my doctor.

“Go now – it could be your heart.” Her sense of urgency seemed drastic because I didn’t feel that bad, certainly not how I thought a cardiac emergency would feel. So imagine my surprise when I arrived at Lawrence Memorial Hospital and found out my life was in jeopardy.

A chemical stress test revealed 35 percent of my heart was damaged from CAD. One-third of my heart was affected by heart disease, even though I had ‘picture perfect’ blood pressure,

cholesterol and dietary habits. More surprising numbers – potentially deadly numbers – came to light when an LMH cardiologist performed a cardiac catheterization to assess and treat blockage in my arteries.

“Oh my, most people don’t survive this,” I heard him say when he found 99 percent blockage and a blood clot in my left front main artery. To restore much-needed blood flow, he inserted a stent, a tiny device that’s with me for life.

My doctors said I would have died if I had waited any longer to get help. Thankfully, with the right intervention, I survived – and I even returned to work the following week. And now, after cardiac rehab and several months of recovery, I’m happy to report that I feel better than I have in years.

Readers, if you take only one thing away from my story, please let it be this: know your numbers. Blood pressure and cholesterol levels alone are not comprehensive measures of heart health. To prevent heart disease or begin treatment as early as possible, ask your doctor for a heart risk assessment and live life with heart health in mind. Know the symptoms for women and share that information with family and friends. With the right information and care, heart disease can be treated, prevented, and hopefully one day, eliminated.

Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance found in the blood and the body’s cells. High cholesterol may lead to atherosclerosis, or fatty deposits in the inner lining of arteries, which can cause a heart attack or stroke. Eating healthy foods and being physically active can help keep your cholesterol numbers in a healthy range.

Blood Pressure High blood pressure (or hypertension) makes the heart work harder than normal. If you are 20 pounds or more overweight, have reached menopause or have someone in your family with high blood pressure, you are more likely to have high blood pressure.

Diabetes Diabetes can increase your risk of heart disease and stroke by two to four times. If you have diabetes, you need to see your doctor regularly and reduce or eliminate any other risk factors. Maintain a healthy weight by balancing a healthy diet with regular physical activity.

Ideal Numbers The four ideal numbers for the general adult population are: • Optimal total cholesterol less than 180 mg/dL • Body mass index (BMI) less than or equal to 25kg/m² • Blood pressure less than 120/80 mm/Hg • Fasting blood sugar of less than or equal to 100mg/dl.

TRY THIS HEART-HEALTHY RECIPE:

HEALTHY EATING A healthy diet and lifestyle are some of your best weapons to fight cardiovascular disease.

However, there are a lot of mixed messages and myths out there regarding healthy eating. It’s the overall pattern of your choices that counts most— think nutrition.

Nutrient-rich foods have vitamins, minerals, fiber and other nutrients.

Components of a healthy diet: 1. Vegetables and fruits are high in vitamins, minerals and fiber—and they’re low in calories.

Eating a variety of fruits and vegetables may help you control your weight and blood pressure.

2. Unrefined whole-grain foods contain fiber. As part of an overall healthy diet, dietary fiber helps reduce blood cholesterol levels and may help you feel full.

3. Eat fish at least twice a week. Recent research shows that eating oily fish containing omega-3 fatty acids (salmon, trout and herring) may help lower your risk of death from coronary artery disease.

4. Cut back on foods containing partially hydrogenated vegetable oils to reduce trans fats

BBQ Glazed Chicken Tenders and Oven Fries

in your diet. Aim to reduce saturated fat to no more than five-to-six percent of total calories.

Choose lean meats and poultry without skin and prepare them without added saturated and trans fat. Choose and prepare foods with little or no salt.

5. Aim to each less than 1,500 milligrams of sodium per day. Keep your intake of sugar to no more than half of your daily discretionary calories allowance. For most American women, that’s no more than 100 calories per day, or about 6 teaspoons of sugar.

6. Keep saturated fat to less than 7 percent of energy; use red meat sparingly and choose lean or extra-lean cuts.

Tips for a healthy diet • Eat slowly, take smaller portions and avoid “seconds.”

• Cook foods in ways that do not add saturated or trans fat, like baking, boiling, broiling, grilling, roasting or stewing.

• When you really crave a high-calorie food, eat a small amount and forget about it, instead of resisting until you give in and gorge. Find a healthy alternative to satisfy your craving.

Cardiovascular diseases kill more women than men. But 80 percent of cardiac events in women could be prevented if women made the right choices for their hearts involving diet, exercise and abstinence from smoking.

HEART ATTACK A heart attack occurs when the blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked, usually by a blood clot.

If this clot cuts off the blood flow completely, the part of the heart muscle supplied by that artery begins to die.

SIGNS OF A HEART ATTACK 1. Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. It lasts more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back.

2. Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.

3. Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.

4. Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.

5. As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort.

But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting and back or jaw pain.

If you have any of these signs, don’t wait!

Call for help!. Call 9-1-1. Get to a hospital right away.

STROKE Stroke is the No. 3 cause of death in America. It’s also a major cause of severe, long-term disability. Stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) happen when a blood vessel feeding the brain gets clogged or bursts. The signs of a TIA are like a stroke, but usually last only a few minutes. If you have any of these signs, don’t wait more than five minutes before calling for help. Call 9-1-1 to get help fast if you have any of these, but remember that not all of these warning signs occur in every stroke.

SIGNS OF STROKE AND TIAS 1. Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body 2. Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding 3. Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes 4. Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination 5. Sudden severe headache with no known cause Also, check the time so you’ll know when the first symptoms appeared. It’s very important to take immediate action. Research funded by the American Heart Association has shown that if given within three hours of the start of symptoms, a clot-busting drug can reduce long-term disability for the most common type of stroke.
