8,000 more obtain health coverage

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @GilesBruce

About 8,000 more Kansans obtained health coverage in January through the Affordable Care Act’s health insurance marketplace.

In Kansas, 22,388 people selected a plan on the marketplace at HealthCare.gov between Oct. 1 and Feb. 1, according to a report released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on Wednesday.

More than three-fourths received some type of Sebelius financial assistance.

“Every American deserves the opportunity to gain quality, affordable health coverage that’s there when they need it,” Kathleen Sebelius, U.S. secretary of health and human services, said in a conference call with reporters Wednesday in which she announced the figures.

According to population size, that would mean about 876 Douglas County residents have selected coverage on the marketplace through Feb. 1. While that’s a far cry from the 13,792 uninsured residents of Douglas

Banning tanning Lawmakers consider prohibition on minors using UV beds

By Nadia Imafidon nimafidon@ljworld.com

For Kansans younger than 18, the trip to the tanning bed to get that desired golden glow may become a thing of the past.

State House members are set to vote, perhaps next week, on a bill that would ban minors from tanning beds and fine salons $250 for breaking the law.

At issue is the risk of lifethreatening melanoma, a dangerous form of skin cancer associated with exposure to sunshine or tanning beds. Evidence is mounting that those exposed to ultraviolet radiation from indoor tanning have a much higher risk of developing melanoma, said Lawrence dermatologist Lee Bittenbender.

The House Health and Human Services Committee passed HB 2435 last week, sending it to the full House for a vote. Committee members approved an amendment that would allow physicians to prescribe tanning for minors with health concerns such as psoriasis.

“We’re not stepping into unknown territory,” said committee Vice

Panel expands proposal on guns ——

Measure would allow loaded firearms in cars, nullify local regulations

Topeka — Kansas residents could carry loaded handguns in their vehicles, even without a concealed carry permit, under a bill that cleared a legislative committee Wednesday.

The House Federal and State Affairs Committee expanded the gun-rights legislation before approving it.

The measure strips cities, counties and townships of the power to regulate guns and voids local gun ordinances, guaranteeing that the open carrying of firearms will be legal across Kansas.

The National and Kansas State rifle associations are pushing the bill, and the committee’s unanimous vote sends it to the entire House for debate, possibly as early as Please see GUNS, page 6A

State senator criticizes KU over tweet, email, tuition, grad rates

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

Topeka — The head of a subcommittee that is reviewing Kansas University’s budget lobbed several pointed criticisms of KU administration during a discussion on Wednesday with KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little.

State Sen. Tom Arpke, RSalina, said the anti-NRA tweet

“I’m personally sorry to see he is still employed at the university,” said Arpke, who is chairman of the Senate Ways and Means subcommittee on education.

be a law,” Riley said.

Bittenbender, of the Dermatology Center of Lawrence, said about 70 percent of people who go to tanning salons are Caucasian females from 16 to 29 years old. Melanoma shows up years later, he said. “If you went and got tanned, and within a week, month or even a year got cancer, that would get people’s attention a lot more.”

Depending on how new the bulbs are and how long one stays under them, the ultraviolet irradiation is more detrimental than the sun, he said.

Rep. Dan Hawkins, R-Wichita, offered an amendment requiring parental authorization for minors, which failed because the majority of committee members said they didn’t think businesses would properly verify consent.

Four of 11 committee members were in com-

Chairwoman Susan Concannon, R-Beloit.

“This is a trending issue.”

Illinois, Nevada, Texas, California and Vermont currently ban tanning bed use by minors. An American Cancer Society representative testified during last week’s hearing that tanning bed use is as carcinogenic as smoking, Concannon said.

“Because of that, the rationale in society is to treat it the same as tobacco,” Concannon said.

Kristi Lawrence, owner of Mango Tan, 4000 W. Sixth St. in Lawrence, said her shop screens all clients’ skin before deciding whether and how long they should be under the bulbs. One percent of her clients would be affected

by this bill, she said.

Everyone under 18 already needs a parent’s permission at Mango Tan, Lawrence said, and no one under 15 is allowed to tan.

As a mom of three girls, Lawrence’s biggest objection to the bill is that the government is interfering with her parenting decisions. She understands the delicacy of teenagers’ skin, she said.

“It’s not just about indoors,” she said. “We need to worry about them outdoors, too. But does the government need to control how much time they spend at the pool outdoors? Where do you draw the line?”

Micaela Riley, 15, said you take your own risk when you decide to tan.

“Take precautions if you think you burn easily, and if you have melanoma in your family, then obviously you shouldn’t tan, but I don’t think it should

plete opposition to more regulation for an already well-regulated industry, Hawkins said.

“I believe what will happen is people that want to allow their children to tan are going to allow them to go to somebody’s home to tan, and then you aren’t going to have a professional looking over that situation,” Hawkins said. “We’re as a government saying ‘we know what’s best for people.’ And it’s time we stop doing that.”

During the testimony, Hawkins said, one representative said she received several calls from mothers who were glad tanning would be banned because it eliminates a difficult conversation with their children. Those are just parents who don’t want to parent, Hawkins said.

County, many of them would have likely qualified under the law’s expanded Medicaid eligibility if Kansas had elected to participate.

Of the Kansas enrollees, the majority (56 percent) chose the marketplace’s silver plan, followed by gold (22 percent), bronze (17 percent) and platinum (3 percent).

The platinum plan covers approximately 90 percent of a patient’s medical costs while the bronze covers 60 percent.

About 28 percent of Kansas residents who have signed up are between the ages of 18 and 34, a demographic the Obama administration has called critical to the law succeeding. Nearly a third of the enrollees, however, are 55 to 64.

March 31 marks the deadline by which most Americans are required to have health insurance or they will be fined.

That’s also the final day of open enrollment on the insurance marketplace before next fall. During closed enrollment, Americans won’t be able to use the law’s subsidies and will only be able to buy coverage directly from insurance companies, who will again be able to reject them for things like pre-existing conditions.

Heartland Community Health Center, which also has staff members trained to assist with enrollment, saw similar trends as the health department. After Heartland’s enrollment activity spiked in December with 52 individuals or families signing up, only 18 have enrolled through the Lawrence clinic since then, according to spokesman Sean Hatch.

Topeka — The Kansas House on Wednesday approved a bill that says people can cite religious beliefs to deny to same-sex couples goods, services, accommodations or employment benefits.

House Bill 2543 was approved 72-49 and will now go to the Senate for consideration.

The Douglas County delegation, three Democrats and one Republican, voted against LEGISLATURE the bill.

Supporters of the measure said it would protect from lawsuits and government action individuals who refuse to provide services to same-sex couples because they believe homosexuality is morally wrong.

They said these peoples’ religious rights are being trampled by recent court decisions striking down other states’ bans on same-sex marriages.

“It’s just a protective measure to ensure the religious liberties we already have will stay in place the same no matter what happens in the future,” said Rep. Charles Macheers, R-Overland Park.

Regents push back on social media claim

“

Every member of this board is a strong advocate of the First Amendment and academic freedom.”

— Fred Logan, Chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents Their comments came after faculty and staff groups re-iterated their opposition to the social media policy, which allows university heads to suspend and fire employees for social media posts that conflict with the best interest of the university or its ability to perform services.

After passing the policy unanimously in December, the regents announced they would review it in response to widespread criti-

cism that it was too broad and could restrain free speech.

The regents established a work group of faculty and staff from state universities to study the policy and make recommendations to the board by April.

But faculty and staff groups have repeatedly asked the regents to suspend the policy until the work group makes its findings.

On Wednesday, Sheryl Lidzy, chair of the Council of Faculty Senate Presidents and associate professor of communications at Emporia State University, relayed a resolution signed by faculty and staff groups at all Kansas regents universities and Johnson County Community College.

The resolution said the social media policy “poses a significant Please see REGENTS, page 6A

“I think of being alone and keeping all my thoughts to myself,” he said. “I came to the club with a terrible attitude. I was bitter, I was selfish.”

But his mentor in the club “navigated me away from bad influences, guided me to being more respectful and leading me to understand the importance of being grateful.”

STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION

Fingerprinting teachers will go forward despite major objections

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

The Kansas State Board of Education is ready to move forward on a set of new rules to require all teachers and school administrators to be fingerprinted, despite objections from teachers unions.

Since 2002, all new educators have had to submit fingerprints and undergo background checks as a condition of receiving their initial licenses. The proposed change would extend that requirement to the estimated 35,000 educators who were licensed before that rule took effect.

Officials from the Kansas National Education Association, the state’s largest teachers union, spoke against the proposal, saying among other things that it would impose a $50 cost on teachers. That includes a $35 fee charged by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, plus a $15 fee to enroll in the FBI’s “rapback” program.

That program checks the person’s fingerprints against a national database of criminal records. It can also alert the state of any subsequent arrests or convictions.

State board members said they saw no problem with requiring fingerprints and background checks for all teachers and administrators.

“Most large companies are now requiring employees to be fingerprinted,” said Sally Cauble, a Republican from Dodge City. “Times Please see PRINTS, page 5A

Dress giveaway puts shine on prom

By Joanna Hlavacek Special to the Journal-World

When Melissa LeBar’s daughter needed a ballgown to compete in a National American Miss pageant last year, the Lawrence mother knew that buying a dress for the competition would be expensive.

“I agreed to let her do it, and we don’t have a huge budget,” said LeBar, who works as pharmacistin-charge at Homeland Homecare Services.

Instead, she took Ellie, now a fifth-grader at the Century School, to the Social Service League’s Project Prom Dress giveaway.

The annual event provides gently used, contemporarystyled dresses for proms, spring formals, quinceañeras and other special events, free of charge.

After trying on about 10 dresses, Ellie finally settled on a strapless, floor-length burgundy gown. When it came time for Ellie to sing onstage during the pageant’s talent portion, LeBar said the dress provided her daughter with an extra dose of confidence.

“She felt good in that dress,” LeBar said. “She loved that dress.”

Janet Cinelli, Social Service League treasurer, hopes to pass that feeling along to at least one girl from every Douglas County high school at this year’s Project Prom Dress on Saturday.

The giveaway will be held at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St., from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Guests can choose from more than 200 dresses, as well as the Social Service League’s collection of shoes, bags and jewelry.

The Social Service League is still accepting donations for Saturday’s giveaway. To donate, drop off gently used dresses and accessories at the store’s temporary location at 11th and New Hampshire streets. info LIBERTY HALLForcallaccessibility (785) 749-1972 644 MASS STREET

“We joke that Loring’s the most interesting man in the world,” said Elizabeth Stephens, director of family programs at the Lawrence Community Shelter, who, turning serious, noted Henderson’s extreme calm and ability to make staff members feel like family. “Loring has been much more than a boss. He’s been a mentor. He’s been a friend.

He’s created an atmosphere that gives us the freedom to develop and design programs ... There can never be another Loring.”

Gay-rights advocates said the bill would allow widespread discrimination against gays and lesbians that would be equivalent to the days when blacks or inter-racial couples were denied equal treatment.

During final action on the bill, several legislators read statements opposed to the bill.

“It is my deeply held, sincere religious beliefs that the commandment to love one another is contradicted by this legislation. This bill expressly permits discrimination against my neighbor in the name of religious freedom,” said state Rep. Sydney Carlin, D-Manhattan.

Support for the bill came almost entirely from Republicans, with only one Democrat, state Rep. Jan Pauls of Hutchinson, voting for it.

Some board members suggested that university schools of education should require their students to submit fingerprint cards to the department before they graduate if they plan to teach in Kansas.

Scott Gordon, assistant general counsel in the state Department of Education, said he has been encouraging education schools to do just that for about the last 18 months.

The discussion Wednesday amounted to a kind of “first reading” of the proposed regulation. The board is expected to vote next month to begin the pro-

moved back to Lawrence in 1993, taking a job running a Kansas City social service agency. While he retired from that position 11 years later, he didn’t stay inactive for long. “I wasn’t ready to retire,” said Henderson, who doesn’t have kids and isn’t married. “I had too much energy and good health and time.”

So he started serving on the board of the Lawrence Open Shelter, which had opened in response to The Salvation Army’s zero-tolerance policy against alcohol use, and later became its director. He quickly realized the shelter was serving the same population as the Community Dropin Center, where people could stop by during the day to get out of the cold or have a cup of coffee.

So, in 2005, the two organizations merged to become the Lawrence

nor, issued a statement criticizing the bill, saying it has nothing to do with problems facing the state, such as school cuts, lagging job creation, and increasing property taxes.

“Every day we spend on issues like this is one day less this Legislature and governor has to tackle the real, growing crises at hand,” Davis said.

Equality Kansas, the state’s leading gay-rights advocacy organization, criticized Davis for not addressing the substance of the bill.

“It’s unfortunate that discrimination against LGBT Kansans is seen as a distraction for the Democratic leadership, rather than a call to action,” said Sandra Meade, state chair of Equality Kansas.

Meade said the bill would treat legal marriages as invalid. “HB 2453 is a blatant attempt to maintain second class citizen status for tax paying gay and lesbian Kansans,” she said.

cess of formally enacting the change. That includes publishing a notice of the proposed change in the Kansas Register, scheduling a public hearing, submitting the change for review by the Kansas Attorney General’s office, and then voting on final adoption of the change – a process Gordon said normally takes about six months.

Meanwhile, Kansas lawmakers are considering legislation that would go even further by not only requiring all educators to undergo criminal background checks, but also authorizing school districts to require them to submit to random drug screening if probable cause exists to suspect them of illegal drug use.

The Senate Education Committee held a hearing on that bill Monday, but has not yet voted on whether to advance it to the full Senate.

Community Shelter. Henderson was named its director. It has been open every night since.

“Loring Henderson is just a very compassionate, dedicated human being who has supported the needs of the homeless for years and years,” said Hilda Enoch, founder of the Lawrence Coalition for Homeless Concerns, who called his departure “a big loss.”

Henderson eventually helped the shelter stay open around the clock and increase its capacity from less than two dozen to 125. He led the charge to move into a more spacious location in southeast Lawrence, near the Douglas County Jail. He has worked to expand its program offerings, including job training and sheltering families after another local emergency shelter closed. He has assisted

As director, Henderson would essentially be on call 24/7, whether to pick up a shelter guest who had worked the late shift or to drive a client to a medical facility in Topeka in the middle of the night.

“He is a saint,” said John Tacha, who has long served on the Lawrence Community Shelter’s board of directors.

complicated and it affects a lot of people,” he said. “Lawrence is a really generous and supportive community.

There’s been a lot of public education that’s occurred in the last 12 years on this issue locally.”

Moving forward, he said he would like to see more progress on treating mental health problems (a big cause of homelessness) and increasing access to affordable housing in Lawrence.

Henderson, an active Quaker, doesn’t really have a lot of hobbies outside of work. “I like to ride a bicycle, although I haven’t in recent years very much,” he said. “Basically I’m dedicated to my job.”

On the issue of homelessness, he said: “It’s just been my niche in life, my calling.

Tacha said that the new shelter might as well be called “the Loring Henderson building” because “most of the people who gave money probably knew Loring or had been touched by Loring in some way.”

“Loring has stuck it out,” said City Commissioner Bob Schumm.

“He brought the shelter from its very beginnings through the rocky, tough part to being in a position that is very sustainable for the future.

He worked very hard at that.”

While the issue of homelessness is by no means solved, Henderson said the community’s attitude about the topic has changed tremendously over the past 10 years.

did not mean that he wanted children to die.

Guth’s leave has since ended, and he’s been put back to work on administrative duties.

State Sen. Laura Kelly, D-Topeka, a member of the subcommittee, criticized Guth’s tweet but said legislators shouldn’t hold KU to a different standard than themselves.

“What he did was wrong, absolutely wrong, but I know a lot of our legislators that have also said awful things and they’re still employed,” Kelly said.

Arpke then criticized an email by Tim Caboni, KU vice chancellor of public affairs, that instructed faculty and staff to speak with the public affairs office before talking to government officials about university business.

Guns CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

next week. Supporters and opponents expect the measure to be enacted because the House and Senate have gun-rights majorities.

Supporters argue that a patchwork of local gun ordinances confuses gun owners and infringes upon rights to own guns protected by the federal and state constitutions.

Language about carrying loaded firearms in vehicles was not included in the original bill, and Rep. Michael Houser, a Columbus Republican, successfully pushed for the amendment.

“I do not have a concealed carry license myself. I open carry at home all the time,” Houser said. “This is striving for uniformity across the state. For me to be legal in some jurisdictions, I would have to unload my rounds before I put it in the car.”

Houser said his amendment mirrors policy in more than a dozen other states, including Missouri and Colorado. And Rep. Larry Campbell, an Olathe Republican, said

“That concerns me greatly,” Arpke said. “I think that really reduces the freedom of speech of faculty or any administrative staff people to contact legislators to make sure we are getting the information that we need.”

But Gray-Little said that was standard practice and didn’t represent a change of policy.

She said if someone from KU is going to represent the school in speaking to a legislator, then that person should inform university administration.

Arpke also criticized KU for recent tuition increases and its low graduation rate relative to peer institutions.

The six-year graduation rate for students who entered KU in the fall of 2006 was 64.1 percent, according to testimony provided by Gray-Little.

That compares with 89 percent at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 75.6 percent at Indiana University and 71 percent at the University

“

This is striving for uniformity across the state. For me to be legal in some jurisdictions, I would have to unload my rounds before I put it in the car.”

— Rep. Michael Houser, R-Columbus people should enjoy the same expectation of privacy in their cars that they have in their homes, where it’s clear they can keep loaded guns.

Law enforcement groups back the bill and have worked with gunrights organizations on its language. It wasn’t clear after Wednesday’s committee meeting how much heartburn they’ll have over Houser’s amendment.

Johnson County District Attorney Steve Howe, at the Statehouse for other meetings, said he hasn’t had time to review the new language, but that the concept worries him.

It states that the policy infringes on freedom of speech, conflicts with the essential principles of academic freedom, and harms the recruitment, retention and accreditation efforts of the regents institutions.

Wilk told Lidzy there was no proof that the policy harmed the public higher education system.

Chris Roberts, of Fort Hays State University, head of the Students’ Advisory Committee, told the regents that

Arpke also said the bite tuition takes out of an average Kansas family’s budget has nearly tripled since 1990.

“That is a very difficult hump to get over,” he said, especially if there are two or more children in college at the same time.

But Kelly said it was unfair to criticize KU and other schools for raising tuition when the Legislature cut KU by $13.5 million last year, and the state’s share of total higher education funding has been declining for years.

“We have to be partners with our regents universities,” Kelly said.

“We can’t just put it all on them and say it’s your fault, you fix it, without doing our part, and our part is giving them the money to do what we’re asking them to do.”

about those kinds of issues,” Howe said.

But Johnson County Sheriff Frank Denning said he and his deputies assume people in rural areas already can carry loaded guns in their cars, and that cities restrict the practice.

Attorney General Derek Schmidt said he was keeping an eye on the bigger picture.

“I’m not as focused on these debates, where people can carry or in what manner they can carry, as I am on trying to make sure the dangerous people, who have proven their dangerousness, don’t have ready access to firearms,” Schmidt said.

Local government groups oppose the measure, arguing that city and county officials know their communities best.

Mike Taylor, a lobbyist for the Unified Government of Kansas City, Kan., and Wyandotte County, which bans the open carrying of firearms, said it’s more of an issue in urban areas than in small towns.

“Cities should have the right, community by community, to make that decision for what fits their city the best,” Taylor said after the committee’s meeting.

one of the major concerns among students is that they would fall under the policy if they worked for the school.

Roberts said he also has heard concerns that the chief executive officer of the university is “the judge and jury.” He said, “There should be some check and balance.”

New and improved Mayer Hawthorne experiments on latest album

By Nadia Imafidon

F

or those who have been following Mayer Hawthorne’s retro-soul revival records from the beginning and falling in love with the throwback Motown vibes, he’s changed the game on this last one.

His third studio album, “Where Does this Door Go,” showcases a reinvented Hawthorne — an unexpected (reflected in the album title) range of artistry and an album of many firsts.

“It was the first time I ever worked with other producers,” Hawthorne said. “The first time I recorded in major studios, first time I ever had a rapper on a song, first time I used a lot of synthesizers, first time I wrote songs on the spot in the studio. Basically everything was different.”

The idea was to throw away all of the rules, and I think we did that, he said. Loosening the production reins served him well. He interviewed 40 different possibilities before assembling an all-star team that would push him to exceed any personal limitations he’d ever put in place. This talented cast of producers included: Cee Lo collaborator Jack Splash, gifted duo Pop and Oak, and Pharrell Williams, winner of producer of the year at this year’s Grammy’s.

“Pharrell actually reached out to me when he found out I was working on a new album,” Hawthorne said. “It totally blew me away, and I jumped on the first flight I could get to Miami.”

Please see MAYER, page 8A

IF YOU GO Mayer Hawthorne with special guest Quadron will be performing at 8 p.m. Tuesday at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St. Advance tickets cost $18 and are available at the Granada box office and thegranada.com.

THEATER PREVIEW

KU students’ production puts 3 spins on ‘Hamlet’

By John R. Phythyon Jr. Special to the Journal-World

One of the hardest things to do in art is to make something old and familiar fresh. Danny Devlin has some ideas about that. “‘Hamlet’ is the most well-known, well-researched play ever,” he says. “We’re taking three very different approaches to it.”

By “we,” he means himself and fellow Ph.D. students Jeanne Tiehen and Scott Knowles. The three are combining their talents for the “second act” of Kansas University Theatre’s Black Box Directing Project.

“Typically, this project is presented as two oneacts,” Devlin says. “Scott and Jeanne and I are each directing a short piece, so you’ll get three plays in the second act all on the same theme.”

That theme is revision, and the idea began as an entry into the Mid-America Theatre Conference, being held in Cleveland in March. The trio applied to the conference and was accepted. Then they turned to KU. “In the past, this project has been largely for undergraduate directors,” Devlin says. “But this year, the administration indicated it would be open to applications from graduate students.

So we applied as a group, and they liked our idea.

It gives us a chance to sort of tune up before MATC.” Each director takes on “Hamlet” in a different way. Devlin presents Tom Stoppard’s “The 15-Minute Hamlet,” in which the entirety of Shakespeare’s immortal classic is performed in, as the title suggests, 15 minutes.

IF YOU GO Black Box Directing Projects: “The Boor” and “Antic Disposition: Variations of Hamlet” opens Friday and runs Feb. 15, 16, 18, 19 and 20 in the Inge Theatre at KU’s Murphy Hall.

Curtain is at 7:30 p.m. except Sunday, Feb. 16, when it is 2:30 p.m.

“We’ll be giving an audience member a stopwatch,” Devlin says.

In a meta-theatrical twist, a frame tale of KU students getting permission to perform “Hamlet” will be tempered with the comedic catch that the theater department only gives them a quarter hour to put it on.

See Hamlet run Tiehen directs “The Dick and Jane Hamlet”

by Larry Siegel. Another comic take on the most famous tragedy of all time, this version presents “Hamlet” as if it were told through a 1960s-style early reading book. Imagine the play acted with simple sentences like, “See Dick run. Run, Dick, run!”

Finally, Knowles presents “Hamlet Machine,” which has Hamlet refusing to be Hamlet anymore and centers on his relationship with Ophelia. Devlin describes it as a post-modern take on some of the themes in the play.

“Each play is a pretty good example of the personalities and interests of the director,” Devlin says.

directors worked with the same actors. So the troupe moves through performing three different styles of revision on “Hamlet.”

“We wanted there to be an equal workload,” Devlin says. “So we split it up so that the actors are all playing different parts in each play, even though it’s the characters from ‘Hamlet’ every time.”

Thus, while the directors were exploring new variations on old themes, the actors were getting opportunities to hone their craft as well: shifting from part to part to part.

And all that only covers the second act. The show opens with senior theater student Brian Buntin’s presentation of Anton Chekhov’s, “The Boor.” Considered one of the finer one-act plays of the Russian school of drama, Chekhov’s comedy concerns a misogynistic landlord attempting to force a widow to settle her late husband’s large debt.

Where the graduate students are focusing on revision, Buntin offers contrast with a classical interpretation of Chekhov.

“We learn the most by reading and studying the ‘greats’ that came before us,” Buntin says. “As an undergraduate director, I’m excited to keep honestly to Chekhov’s text as my first priority.”

Buntin is sharing the same troupe of actors with the graduate students, so it will be another opportunity for the performers to develop their range, moving between a traditional rendering of Chekhov to three wildly different variations on “Hamlet.”

“There’s a large variety of material,” Devlin says.

“It should be fun.”

CHILI MAC ATTACK

At quick glance, you might mistake the giant breaded patty as gargantuan onion ring. What you’re really looking at is a layer of deep-fried mac and cheese on the Chili Mac Attack, a new creation at Bigg’s BBQ .

In addition to the creamy, cheesy mac patty that arrives open face on one side of the bun, the other half layers a hamburger patty with pepper jack cheese and one scoop of chili. Essentially it’s double the cheese, double the meat and one really decadent burger. Makes you wonder if “attack” has anything to do with your health following the meal.

Med school need Kansas needs more doctors, and state legislators need to help Kansas University fill that need.

I

t’s clear that some members of the Kansas Legislature aren’t happy with Kansas University, but they shouldn’t allow their concerns to color their judgment on a funding decision that will have a big impact on the state of Kansas and its residents.

Kansas — especially the rural parts of the state — is facing a shortage of doctors. The KU School of Medicine is a vital source of those doctors. In order to increase enrollments and maintain the quality of its programs, KU needs a new medical education building at its Kansas City, Kan., campus. Legislators need to step up and help KU finance this building.

Lawmakers have given KU authority to issue $75 million in bonds to finance the building but have approved no funding to help repay those bonds. KU officials are asking lawmakers to consider returning to KU the $25 million the university paid in Social Security contributions for its medical school residents. When it was determined those contributions weren’t necessary, the money was returned to the state, and KU would like to put that money toward the new building. KU also is seeking about $1 million a year for the next 15 years to help cover the costs of the new building. The remaining $35 million for the building would come from university funds and private donations, according to KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little.

The building is needed, Gray-Little said, so that KU can add about 50 students to its medical school class and update equipment to keep up with new training standards. Without the building, KU’s ability to attract top students and maintain its accreditation may be in danger.

Gray-Little was prepared to make KU’s case Tuesday to the Legislature’s Joint Committee on State Building Construction, but that meeting was canceled because of an extended debate in the House chamber. When she returned to Topeka Wednesday to speak to the Senate Ways and Means Committee, she was greeted by the kind of negative attitude toward KU that might derail funding for the medical school building.

One member of the committee renewed his criticisms of last summer’s Twitter post by a KU professor, as well as pointing to tuition increases and comparatively low graduation rates at KU. The Twitter post was regrettable, but it shouldn’t influence decisions about KU funding. Also, KU is not alone in the tuition and graduation rate situations. Other state universities in Kansas also are raising tuition in response to reduced state funding — and the number of freshmen who graduate within six years actually is substantially higher at KU than at other Kansas Board of Regents universities.

Whatever concerns state legislators have about such matters shouldn’t keep them from providing funds for KU’s new medical education building. According to the latest statistics on the medical school website, almost half of the active physicians in Kansas were trained at KU. Those doctors practice in 91 of the state’s 105 counties. Training doctors is one of KU’s most vital and tangible benefits to the state. For the good of Kansas, legislators need to support that mission.

America tips toward ‘Downton Abbey’ Washington — Many “Downton Abbey” watchers are nostalgia gluttons who grieved when Lord Grantham lost his fortune in Canadian railroad shares.

There are, however, a discerning few whose admirable American sensibilities caused them to rejoice about Grantham’s loss: “Now perhaps this amiable but dilettantish toff will get off his duff and get a job.”

This drama’s verisimilitude extends to emphasizing that his lordship had a fortune to squander only because he married an American heiress. By battening on what they disdained, this republic’s commercial culture, many British aristocrats could live beyond their inherited means — actual work being, of course, unthinkable.

The deserved decline of Downton’s finances demonstrates why estate taxes are unnecessary: Even when Balzac’s axiom is accurate (“At the bottom of every great fortune without apparent source, there’s always some crime”) and fortunes are ill-gotten, subsequent generations often soon fritter them away. Call this Darwinian redistribution.

Americans have an unslakable appetite for British artistic syrup. Charles Dickens, although a noble spirit and literary genius, could be so insufferably saccharine that his flinty Mr. Gradgrind in “Hard Times” (“The Good Samaritan was a Bad Economist”) seemed like a breath of fresh air. In

“

And if progressivism prevails, America will be Downton Abbey: Upstairs, the administrators of the regulatory state will, with a feudal sense of noblesse oblige, assume responsibility for the lower orders downstairs…”

1841, when Dickens was serializing “The Old Curiosity Shop,” the ship arriving in America carrying the latest installment reportedly was greeted by dockworkers shouting, “Is Nell still alive?”

It is fitting that PBS offers “Downton Abbey” to its disproportionately progressive audience. This series is a languid appreciation of a class structure supposedly tempered by the paternalism of the privileged. And if progressivism prevails, America will be Downton Abbey: Upstairs, the administrators of the regulatory state will, with a feudal sense of noblesse oblige, assume responsibility for the lower orders downstairs,

gently protecting them from “substandard” health insurance policies, school choice, gun ownership, large sodas and other decisions that experts consider naughty or calamitous.

Why, however, does a normally wise and lucid conservative such as Peter Augustine Lawler, professor of government at Berry College, celebrate the “astute nostalgia” of “Downton Abbey”? Writing in Intercollegiate Review, he interprets the Abbey as a welfare state conservatives can revere: “Everyone — aristocrat or servant — knows his place, his relational responsibilities. ... The characters aren’t that burdened by the modern individualistic freedom of figuring out one’s place in the world. ... Many of the customs that seem pointlessly expensive and time consuming, such as dressing for every dinner, are employment programs for worthy servants given secure, dignified places in a world where most ordinary people struggle. ... The nobility of living in service to a lord. ... What aristocracy offers us at its best is a proud but measured acceptance of the unchangeable relationship between privileges and responsibilities in the service of those whom we know and love.”

Good grief. Americans do not call the freedom to figure out one’s place in the world a burden; they call it the pursuit of happiness.

And to be “given” a “secure”

place amid “unchangeable” relationships is not dignified, it is servitude.

One reason Thomas Jefferson, a child of Virginia’s gentry, preferred an agricultural society to one in which people are “piled upon one another in large cities” (“let our workshops remain in Europe”) is that he valued social stasis, as the privileged are wont to do. One reason his rival Alexander Hamilton, an immigrant striver thriving in Manhattan, wanted a restless market society of ample and volatile capital was as a solvent of the entrenched hierarchies that impede upward mobility. “Downton Abbey” viewers should remember the following rhapsodic hymn to capitalism’s unceasing social churning: “Constant revolutionizing of production, uninterrupted disturbance of all social conditions. ... All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices and opinions, are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air.”

This (from “The Communist Manifesto”) explains why capitalism liberates.

And why American conservatives should understand that some people smitten by “Downton Abbey” hope to live upstairs during a future reign of gentry progressivism.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 13, 1914: years “The total snowago fall for the past IN 1914 48 hours is 4.9 inches, five inches to all intents and purposes.

This makes it by far the heaviest snow fall for the entire winter up to the time of the breaking of this storm. The snow shovelers were out in full force this morning clearing off the sidewalks. … The street car company had more trouble in keeping its schedule the last two days than it has had for some time.”

Use of ‘thug’ reveals racial bias “I hate that thug music.”

This, according to Rhonda Rouer’s testimony last week, is what her fiance, Michael Dunn, said when they pulled into a Jacksonville, Fla., gas station next to an SUV full of black kids who had the stereo up high, pumping some obnoxious, bass-heavy rap.

Rouer was inside the convenience store when she heard the shots. Dunn, who is white, had gotten into an argument with the young men about their music, had gone into his glove box for his pistol and started shooting. As the SUV tried to get away, he fired still more rounds. At least one of those rounds fatally struck 17-year-old Jordan Davis.

Dunn drove to his hotel. He did not call police. He ordered pizza. The next morning, he drove home to Satellite Beach, 175 miles south, where police arrested him. Dunn claimed he shot at the SUV because Davis threatened him with a gun. Davis was unarmed.

Dunn is now on trial for murder. He’s claiming selfdefense in the November 2012 shooting, saying he felt threatened, though his victim wielded nothing more dangerous than the aforementioned “thug” music.

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

And thus ‘thug’ becomes the more politically correct substitute for a certain racial slur.”

And we need to talk about that word a moment. But first, let’s try a thought experiment: Close your eyes and picture a California girl.

Close your eyes and picture a chess prodigy.

Chances are, you saw the former as a sun-kissed blonde in a bikini running along a beach in slow motion and the latter as a studious-looking boy in owlish glasses. Chances are you saw both of them as white.

Now, close your eyes and picture a thug.

It is exceedingly likely the person you pictured was black like Jordan Davis.

The point is, the words we

use are often encoded with racial presumptions and expectations. Thus, your image of a California girl is more likely to resemble Farrah Fawcett (born in Corpus Christi) than Tyra Banks (born in Los Angeles) and your idea of a prodigy will not include Phiona Mutesi, a teenage chess champion from Uganda.

And thus “thug” becomes the more politically correct substitute for a certain racial slur. This is why Stanford-educated black football player Richard Sherman was called a thug for speaking loudly in an interview, but singer Justin Bieber was just a “bad boy” while facing charges of vandalism, assault and DUI. And it is why, in jailhouse letters released to the media, Dunn uses that word to describe the boy he shot. But he doesn’t stop there. “The jail is full of blacks,” he writes, “and they all act like thugs.

This may sound a bit radical but if more people would arm themselves and kill these (expletive) idiots, when they’re threatening you, eventually they may take the hint and change their behavior.”

In other letters he decries the lack of sympathy from the “liberal bastards” in the media, and takes heart that

the counties surrounding Jacksonville are dominated by white Republican gun owners. He writes, “The jail here is almost all black prisoners. You’d think Jacksonville was 90 percent black judging by the makeup of the folks in jail here!”

What he describes, of course, is the great Catch-22 of African-American life.

They decide you’re a thug from the moment you’re born, so they lock you up in disproportionate numbers.

Then they point to the fact that you are locked up in disproportionate numbers to prove that you’re a thug.

Michael Dunn is a hateful man, condemned as a racist by his own words and deeds.

But that’s his problem. Ours is that this sickness is not confined to him. And that it causes blindness, rendering sufferers unable to see what is right in front of them.

So one can only wonder with dread how many of us gaze upon this man who shot up an SUV full of unarmed kids, then fled the scene, and see a victim.

And how many will see a “thug” in a teenager just trying to dodge the bullets.

State education officials said Wednesday they plan to ask the federal government to extend the state’s waiver from requirements of the No Child Left Behind law.

The waiver, which was granted in 2012, means schools and districts no longer have to meet the Adequate Yearly Progress, or AYP targets, for the percentage of students scoring proficient or better on reading and math tests.

Instead, the state has

adopted an entirely different system for holding schools accountable based on several measurements of how well they are helping students improve their academic performance.

Deputy Education Commissioner Brad Neuenswander told the Kansas State Board of Education that the waivers were never intended to be a long-term policy.

When the Obama administration began offering them in 2011, he said, it was assumed that Congress would eventually pass a bill to overhaul and reauthorize the law, but that has not yet hap-

pened.

One of the conditions for receiving the waiver was that Kansas had to agree to other reform measures supported by the Obama administration, including a requirement that all districts adopt new evaluation systems that hold teachers and administrators accountable for student achievement.

Because Kansas has not yet fully implemented the new evaluation system, the U.S. Department of Education last year gave notice that the state was at “high risk” of losing its waiver.

Practice assessment exams are online

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Anyone interested in seeing what kind of reading and math tests Kansas students will be taking this spring can now take a practice exam online.

Marianne Perie, co-director of Kansas University’s Center for Educational Testing and Evaluation, demonstrated the practice exams Wednesday during a presentation before the Kansas State Board of Education.

The test is administered through an online portal called the Kansas Interactive Testing Engine, or KITE. Users can go to ksassessments.org

to download the software needed to log into the system and take the practice exams.

Perie said the new tests, which are aligned to the new Common Core standards, will require students to do more than pick the right answer from a multiple-choice list. Perie said the “technology-enhanced” tests require students to be actively, and physically involved in the testing process.

U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts, a Kansas Republican, recently introduced legislation to block any further federal funding for the Common Core initiative, and to prevent the U.S. Department of Educa-

tion from requiring states to use assessments from either of the two consortiums.

“Setting high standards for our schools, our teachers and our children is the right thing to do, but those standards should be decided in Kansas, without bribes or mandates from Washington,” Roberts said in a statement.

Perie, however, insisted the tests being developed

by CETE will be unique to Kansas, noting that the center has hired Kansas writers to develop the reading and writing items for the English language arts test, as well as word problems in the math exams.

Flack is charged with capital murder, firstdegree murder, rape and criminal possession of a firearm in the May deaths of Andrew Adam Stout, 30; Steven Eugene White, 31; Kaylie Kathleen Bailey, 21; and Bailey’s 18-month-old daughter, Lana-Leigh.

On Jan. 16, prosecutors obtained from Sachse an order for two cellphone providers previously subpoenaed to fully comply with the state’s request for evidence.

A Franklin County judge has granted a request from state prosecutors to reopen an evidentiary hearing in the capital murder case of a man accused of killing four people, including an 18-month-old child, in rural Ottawa last year.

Franklin County District Court Judge Thomas H. Sachse granted the motions filed by the state in its case against 28-year-old Kyle T. Flack, and Flack’s defense attorney, Ron Evans, did not oppose them.

Last month, Sachse had set a two-hour evidentiary hearing for 3 p.m.

Thursday but closed it

to the public upon a request from the prosecution — which is being led

by Deputy Attorney General Victor J. Braden and includes Franklin County Attorney Stephen Hunting and Deputy County Attorney James T. Ward.

Now, in an order dated Jan. 30 and recently made public in the docket for the case, Sachse granted the state’s motion to withdraw its request to close the hearing and also allowed the hearing to be rescheduled to 9 a.m.

March 11. The new date will have the hearing take place just before the first day of a previously scheduled two-day preliminary hearing.

In its motion to reschedule, the state cited a

Transfer Millweard ready for KU QB battle whole. Each time, he went beyond the three-man list and made sure to include red-shirt freshman Jordan Darling and junior Michael Cummings.

“Yes, we have Jordan tied for first, myself, Jake, Mike and Montell,” he said.

“We’re a great group of guys in that room, and we’re working hard every day to get a little bit better.”

A few minutes later, after being asked to dive a little deeper into the upcoming showdown, Millweard cracked and identified one area he thinks he has a clear advantage over the rest of KU’s quarterbacks.

“I think I got ‘em in the beard area,” said the 6-foot3, 210-pound Millweard, who currently sports a mean patch of sandy blonde, Andrew Luck-esque facial hair.

LCC chooses terrific top pro Well, it only took a hundred years, but the city of Lawrence finally has a female head golf pro.

Lawrence Country Club got its year-long, 100thanniversary celebration off to a great start in promoting Kristen Samp from assistant to boss of the pro shop, replacing Jon Zylstra, now filling a similar role at Eagle Bend Golf Course.

After 11 years as a touring pro, including four on the Samp LPGA tour, Samp came to LCC in 2009. Great stick, excellent teacher, wise move by LCC. Samp has the unflappable nature needed to succeed competing in a wicked sport that loves to mock its participants. That trait will come in handy should any spoiled brats convinced the world is their servant happen to approach the proshop counter convinced it was her fault that they were dumb enough to put their vanity handicaps against sand-bagging snakes in the grass, losing the kids’ college savings in the process.

A Class A teaching professional particularly skilled at turning lousy short games into competitive ones, Samp was the logical choice to replace the friendly Zylstra, the original Jay Z. But that doesn’t mean she thought landing the job would be akin to knocking in a gimme putt.

(By the way, the next time someone lips out a putt and asks, “Is that good?” tell them what I tell them: “It is if you make it.”)

Sure, it’s the 21st century, but it’s also the sports world, where change sometimes is spelled the way David Bowie sings it, “Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-anges.”

Lawrence has four-anda-half golf courses and other tracks can be found all over the rest of northeast Kansas. Yet, Samp joins Jacqueline Madison of Meadowbrook Golf & Country Club in Topeka as the only female head pros in the region.

“Absolutely,” Samp said when asked if she had concerns her gender would

KANSAS UNIVERSITY QUARTERBACK TRANSFER T.J. MILLWEARD SPEAKS to the media on Wednesday at the Anderson Family Football Complex.

Sophomore transfer T.J. Millweard fired the first shot in the Kansas University quarterback race on Wednesday, and it had surprisingly little to do with football.

Speaking with the media for the first time since transferring from UCLA to KU last August, Millweard was asked about any advantages he might see himself having over senior Jake Heaps and sophomore Montell Cozart, the other legs of what promises to be an exciting threeman race for the Jayhawks’ starting job.

Millweard — pronounced Mill-word — deflected all of the attention from the upcoming QB competition by talking about the group as a

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD CHELSEA GARDNER PULLS IN A REBOUND beneath the KU basket during the Jayhawks’ 62-53 victory over TCU on Wednesday night at Allen Fieldhouse.

Jayhawks come back, close out TCU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

All-out effort can do wonders for a team trying to dig out of a hole.

So can the sweet shooting touch of a veteran guard who is equal parts intense and unflappable at all times.

Kansas University guard Natalie Knight displayed both during the KU women’s

basketball team’s come-frombehind, 62-53 victory over TCU, Wednesday at Allen Fieldhouse.

After a sluggish 15 minutes to open the game, Knight sparked a Kansas comeback late in the first half with backto-back three-pointers that helped slice TCU’s 26-16 lead to just four — 28-24 — by halftime.

Knight, a soft-spoken ju-

nior from Olathe, led KU with 16 points and knocked in four of seven shots from three-point range. While each shot from distance was huge at the time, none was as big as Knight’s two-point runner in the lane with 1:54 remaining. That basket pushed KU’s lead to 56-52 and helped bring calm back to the Kansas side.

started experimenting with the beard as a junior in high school after spending his sophomore year at a school that did not allow facial hair. After that, it kind of became his thing and he’s been wearing some form of it ever since. The beard has no bearing on how he plays quarterback and certainly won’t be a factor in the competition to become KU’s starter. But in the early stages of a battle between three humble guys with different strengths and weaknesses, it’s the only area of clear separation at this point.

A week ago, after announcing this year’s recruiting class, KU coach Charlie Weis said emphatically that Millweard would be in the thick of the competition this Please see MILLWEARD, page 3B

Wesley: Minutes don’t sour KU career

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self likes the depth in the Jayhawks’ frontcourt this season.

“We have five good post guys and the best sixth post guy in the country in Wilt. Wilt doesn’t even get a chance to play for us,” Self joked Tuesday on his “Hawk Talk” radio show.

“Wilt” is Justin Wesley, KU’s senior basketball power forward/actor, whose big-screen debut — the portrayal of Wilt Chamberlain in the movie “Jayhawkers” — will show Friday through Sunday at Lied Center.

“Stop and think about it ... Justin played important minutes in the national championship game and now he’d be our sixth big guy after he’s gotten a lot better,” Self said of the 6-9, 220-pound Wesley. He logged two minutes in KU’s 67-59 loss to Kentucky in the 2012 national title game. For the entire 2011-12 season, he averaged 8.6 minutes in 38 games.

“We do have some depth in there,” Self added emphatically.

Wesley, who has played just 14 minutes total his senior season, is behind Perry Ellis, Joel Embiid, Tarik Black, Jamari Traylor and Landen Lucas on the frontcourt depth chart.

“My experience has been great,” Lamar transfer Wesley said of his three seasons and one red-shirt year at KU. “Of course I wanted the basketball side of it to go a little bit differently. That’s part of life. Some things go your way. Some things don’t. You have to make the best of it. It’s what I’ve done.

“I made the decision to

allowed TCU to storm back from an 11-point deficit and win, 52-50.

It looked like things might head down a similar path in this one, and TCU coach Jeff Mittie reminded his players that they had climbed back against Kansas before.

“I’m sure it was go-

ing through their heads,” Mittie said of KU’s slipup in the last meeting.

“But they regrouped nicely. Give Bonnie and her kids credit. I wish we would’ve finished.”

Although the clock wasn’t working against KU’s comeback on Wednesday like it had against TCU’s in Fort Worth, the reversal of fortunes was just as significant for a Kansas team in need of a spark.

“We had to (win) from a win standpoint,” KU coach Bonnie Henrickson said. “But I think we had to from a momentum and juice standpoint, too.”

Because just five games remain on the regular season schedule — KU plays at Iowa State at 6 p.m. Saturday — Henrickson said the victory against TCU, and the way it occurred, could go down as a key moment in KU’s lateseason charge.

“I’ve respected the fact that we’ve come back after such tough losses and we’ve not been demoralized and devastated,” Henrickson said. “But at some point you gotta find a way to win one.”

Junior forward Chelsea Gardner added 13 points and 16 rebounds for KU and junior Asia Boyd chipped in with 13 points off the bench.

Wednesday’s victory improved KU to 12-13 overall and 5-8 in Big 12 play and dropped TCU to 14-10 and 5-7.

from all over the city designed at pumping life into the city’s junior golf program. Samp is 100 percent on board.

Samp’s competitive history makes her a credible advocate for LCC. “These greens are great and that’s what we’re known for,” she said.

“I played in three U.S. Opens (Cherry Hills in Denver, Interlachen CC in Winter Park, Fla., and Newport CC in Newport, R.I.) and these greens are just as good as those, day in and day out.”

LCC also recently announced that Rheanne Etken, a graduate of the University of Iowa and the Troon Golf Leader Program, has been hired as general manager. She has worked in Utah, Texas and Iowa.

Etken’s hiring means Samp will be working for a woman. For the record, she doesn’t have a problem with that.

For Wesley’s take on his work in the movie, go to http://bit.ly/1fiaNKw. l This, that: Self said freshman center Embiid will not practice until Friday at the earliest as he rests his sore back and knee. Self has not decided whether Embiid will play in Saturday’s 3 p.m., home game against TCU. Self said MRIs have shown no structural damage for Embiid, who played 18 minutes in Monday’s 85-82 overtime loss at Kansas State. Traylor, who sat out the KSU game because of disciplinary reasons, is practicing. Self said Wednesday he hasn’t decided if Traylor will play Saturday. “I will never put myself in this situation again,” Traylor wrote on Twitter.

Self has said Traylor has exhibited “irresponsible behavior.” l Draft talk: ESPN’s Jeff Goodman revealed his first 2014 NBA mock draft on Wednesday. It includes three Jayhawks: Embiid at No. 1, Andrew Wiggins at 3 and Wayne Selden at 22. ESPN’s Chad Ford’s Big Board lists Embiid at No. 1 overall, Wiggins at No. 2 and Selden at 27.

“The shot clock was winding down and I knew we needed a basket because they were making a little run,” Knight said of the Horned Frogs, who had trimmed KU’s 54-45 lead to a single possession with a 7-0 run.

Asked if she could sense the relief that her 12-footer brought to her team, Knight smiled and refused sole credit for her team’s ability to close this one out.

“I think every little thing helped at that point,” she said. Knight “Because we were a little rattled at that time.”

Added senior guard CeCe Harper, who tallied nine points and eight assists: “When she hit that and we went back up (four) I think it kind of gave us a little momentum and we realized we could win that game.”

At times, particularly late, Wednesday’s victory was eerily similar to the first meeting between these two teams in Fort Worth, Texas.

transfer here and walk on.

I’m still happy with my decision today regardless of how it went basketballwise. My experience has been a helluva experience. I do not regret anything.

“The love (for KU) hasn’t diminished. If anything, it’s grown. Some of the best experiences I’ve had so far in my life have been here,” Wesley added.

That includes his work on the movie “Jayhawkers.”

It seems KU coach Bill Self recommended him for the part of Chamberlain.

“They came to me and asked who I thought would be the guy who could play the role,” Self said “The first thought that was approached to me was Julian Wright (who plays overseas). I started thinking, ‘If we get an ex-player to do it, why not get one of our present players whose body type fits much better than Julian’s would?’

He (Wesley) did the interview process with him (director Kevin Willmott). After that, I think they were pretty sold. From what Kevin and the crew have said,

from what I understand, Justin did a nice job with it. I’m excited to see it Friday.”

Self will take his team to the movies for the early 7 p.m. showing on Friday. The movie also will be shown at 9 p.m.

Friday; 11 a.m., 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. Saturday; and 1, 4 and 7 p.m. Sunday at Lied Center. Tickets are available at Lied Center box office.

“It should be entertaining for our guys,” Self said. “I know it was a favorable, positive experience for Justin.

He had a good time with it. It was more w o r k than he Wesley thought it’d be initially from a time standpoint. He said it was it was a good time.

It was fun.”

Wesley said he hopes fans enjoy the movie, which will be shown in some film festivals following the unveiling here. No plans for general release have been announced at this time.

“It deals with a little bit of civil rights, basketball, Phog Allen. It bounces back,” Wesley said. “I wouldn’t say it is primarily based on civil rights or primarily based on bas-

spring. From the sound of things, that competition began the day these guys reported to campus following winter break.

“We’re all trying to learn from each other, get a little bit better, push each other in the weight room,” Millweard said.

“In the running drills, who’s the quarterback who wins, who’s the quarterback that loses and all that. I’d say the competition’s good right now.”

As for what he views as his best assets at the position, Millweard pointed to his arm and his legs.

“I really like the way I throw the ball,” he said. “I’m not saying I’m perfect. I have a lot to work on in that area, of course. But I like the way I throw the ball and I like my mobility.”

Asked if that mobility was more elude-and-extend or attack-and-assault, Millweard said the notion that he’s a pro style quarterback was off base.

“I have no problem running,” he said. “I like it. I really think it gets a team going when a quarterback breaks it. ... Don’t get me wrong, I’m never gonna be as fast as Montell. I like to tell him I think I can be, but I can’t.”

What he believes he can be is efficient.

“Something I take pride in as a quarterback is just getting first downs,” he said. “That’s your job as an offense. Keep moving the ball, get those first downs, get in the red zone and then cash in and get some points.”

The first chance to do that is 205 days away, and right now there’s no guarantee that Millweard will be given that opportunity.

Doesn’t matter. He’s focused on the start of spring practice (March 4) and has been for some time.

“I’ve been counting down for as long as I can (remember),” Millweard said. “UCLA was great, but you never really got the feel of, ‘Hey, this is the year.’ (Here), it’s an open competition and that’s all you can really ask for. ...

I think it’s going to be a great spring.”

Dear Annie: I have a 75-year-old friend who was brutally beaten by an intruder. “Jim” suffered broken bones and a head trauma and spent time in a rehab facility. He still hasn’t fully recovered and is mostly confined to bed.

Jim has no close family. He abandoned his wife 38 years ago, and his daughter met him for the first time in October. She is his next of kin, and when Jim was in a coma, she had to make some tough decisions about his care.

I’m in touch with her often, so she is aware of her father’s condition and says he is capable of making informed decisions. The police concur.

Jim is alone, depressed and alcoholic.

I check on him daily.

He’s promised not to kill himself, but he has

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

given up on living. He has very little energy and barely eats despite the fact that food is provided.

I have been meeting his requests for alcohol, but I feel guilty about it.

I don’t want to contribute to his death by facilitating his drinking, but I fear that depriving him only condemns him to an even more protracted demise.

Am I right to make him comfortable? Is this compassion or wrong-

CBS to show Thursday night NFL games As expected, coverage of the XXII Olympic Winter Games has put NBC at the top of the heap. Some years back, one might have expected “American Idol” to be its strongest competitor, but last Thursday that role was played by “The Big Bang Theory.” According to the TVbytheNumbers website, “Big Bang” was watched by 17.5 million viewers, compared to the more than 20 million who tuned into the first night of the Sochi games.

It’s telling that a scripted sitcom, a genre long rendered road kill by the reality TV juggernaut, would remain so dominant. “American Idol” held its own with more than 11 million viewers. Sometimes competition like the Olympics doesn’t rob viewers from other shows, but simply brings more people to the medium. It’s a matter of addition rather than division.

Despite the success of its Thursday comedies, CBS will be turning to a more dependable brand of programming next fall. It was recently announced that the network has acquired the rights to air eight Thursday night NFL games next season.

Will CBS’ Thursday night football have a similar impact on the ratings for the NFL? Viewers will now have upward of four nights a week (Sunday, Monday, Thursday and sometimes Saturday) to watch NFL games in prime time. Is that too much?

I don’t think so. Football has emerged as the only event that draws huge numbers of people who need to watch it live. There are countless ways to watch, view, stream or skim the best clips from the Golden Globes, “American Idol” or the Oscars.

But nobody wants to stream football a day later -- or even an hour later.

For that reason, whatever CBS paid for NFL rights, they’re probably worth it.

doing? — His Friend Dear Friend: We’re going to side with compassion, but please know what you are getting into. While Jim may tell you he is not suicidal, he is doing exactly that by a slower route.

Not once does she listen to anyone else or ask how they are. She never inquires whether I’m OK. There is never a sincere two-sided conversation. Somehow,

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, Feb. 13: This year you head in a new direction. In a sense, you become less independent than you have been in the past. If you are single, you could meet someone special.

If you are attached, you often give in to your sweetie’s demands because it is easier that way.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You could be unusually verbal and creative. You might wonder how you can stop a problem before it evolves. Tonight: Get into weekend mode.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) If you can work from home, do. Understand that you can be more reflective in that environment. Tonight: Make it easy.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You might want to see a situation in a different light. How you see a personal matter could change. Tonight: Out and about.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You could be more touchy and difficult than you realize. You probably feel others need to be considerate of you. Tonight: Buy a new item for your wardrobe.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You beam, and someone responds. Your ability to get past a problem allows you to have a good time. Tonight: The world is your oyster.

everything reverts back to her and her need for attention. She does not get along with her inlaws and refuses to visit them. My father-in-law sees his side of the family on his own.

All I can say to every person considering marriage is: Open your eyes. If I had recognized this pattern earlier, as much as I love my husband, I wouldn’t have married into this family. — Glad the Holidays Are Over Dear Glad: We understand that she is difficult, but we feel sorry for your mother-in-law.

She has no idea how to make friends or get people to like her. She must be a terribly unhappy person.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A loved one will do the unexpected. Your finances could point to a need for change. Tonight: Relax to some good music.
