KU, police draft sexual violence agreement

Going red for women’s health

Policy will dictate how university, law enforcement conduct investigations

More than 250 people attended the expo, which included a silent auction. The Go Red event raises money to help fight and prevent heart disease. It raised nearly $45,000 for the American Heart Association’s “Life is Why” 2015 campaign.

Police seek $24K for evidence storage

oters said no in November to a $28 million plan for a new police headquarters facility, but now police department leaders are saying they can’t wait any longer on addressing one critical space need. The department will ask city commissioners on Tuesday night to approve funding for an “emergency need” related to evidence storage space. But taxpayers can breathe easy. The price tag for this fix is coming in at about $24,000.

As was well documented during the police headquarters campaign, the department’s current evidence storage room at the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center is highly cramped.

But now the department said it is no longer just cramped but potentially dangerous. The department hired a structural engineer

in December to assess the space. The report from Bob D. Campbell and Co. found that the weight of all the evidence in the second- and third-floor evidence rooms exceeded the structural floor capacity of the building by about 35 percent.

The engineer said the evidence room as it exists today is not in compliance with the city’s building codes.

A MOUNTAIN OF BOXES fills the main evidence storage room on the second floor of the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St. The room is in the former gym from when that part of the building was a jail, and it now includes a steel staircase for two makeshift floors inside.

A new agreement between Kansas University and the Lawrence Police Department aims to firm up how the two should — and shouldn’t — work together when it comes to sexual violence investigations.

KU and police say they’ve had a good yet informal working relationship for years.

They’ve now unveiled a memorandum of understanding, which the City Commission is expected to approve Tuesday night.

Acts of sexual violence — defined in the agreement as rape, sodomy and sexual battery — are illegal under Kansas law and also against KU policy.

Police conduct criminal investigations that could lead to a suspect being convicted in court and sent to jail.

KU’s Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access investigates sexual misconduct policy violations that could lead to an accused student being expelled from school.

Both entities want victims to report and endeavor to thoroughly and confidentially investigate.

But here’s a worst-casescenario of what could happen with no communication: A woman who was raped reports it immediately to both police and KU. Police hope to surprise the suspect with a search or arrest warrant, but KU contacts him first and informs him someone has accused him of rape. The man might destroy evidence or skip town before police could execute their warrants, possibly ruining a criminal case.

The memorandum of understanding suggests that police and KU alert one another to cases they’re pursuing so they don’t step on each other’s toes, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, Lawrence police spokesman. Police would not hand over much to KU, however.

“We can’t share all those investigative details with them because they’re outside of law enforcement,” McKinley said. “But we do need to give them a heads up.”

Key points of the agreement: l It applies in sexual violence cases where the victim is a KU student. The victim’s written consent is required for KU or police to share information with the other, as below. l If needed to prevent KU from inadvertently interfering with a criminal investigation, police will tell KU the victim’s name and cursory information about the incident. KU will delay action on its own investigation if possible — although in certain cases, rules governing KU may require the university to take immediate action to protect the victim or keep campus safe despite a criminal investigation. l Upon receiving a report, KU will give the victim’s name and basic incident information to police.

KU will inform the victim of her right to pursue a criminal prosecution and, if she wishes to do so, help her contact police. l Likewise, police investigators will “strive” to provide victims with an information sheet, provided by KU, highlighting KU’s process and campus resources available to her.

The memorandum also lists procedures for sharing crime statistics, working together on emergency notifications and crime alerts, and collaborating on education and training.

Kansas Bureau of Investigations forensic scientists and Walker himself.

In her closing arguments Friday, prosecutor Amy McGowan said the weeklong trial’s testimony and evidence showed Walker kicked in the door to Roberts’ Cedarwood Apartments duplex, pointed a gun at Roberts’ son in the living room, entered Roberts’ bedroom to demand marijuana or cash from him and shot him when he did not comply. Roberts’ brother then tackled Walker, the two struggled, and Walker and his co-defendant Archie Robinson fled the residence, McGowan argued.

Defense attorney Sarah

Swain painted a different picture. Referencing Walker’s Thursday testimony of the morning in question, Swain said that Walker and Robinson had gone to Roberts’ home to buy marijuana and were in the middle of the transaction when Roberts’ brother “burst” through Roberts’ bedroom door and tackled Robinson, and the gun went off.

Jurors were released to deliberations around 11:15 a.m. Friday and continued deciding the case without leaving the courthouse until about 8:30 p.m. The jury will return to the courthouse Monday at 8:30 a.m. to continue deciding the case.

The larger issue, though, is how long the police headquarters issue will remain in limbo and whether more temporary fixes are on the horizon. There certainly are signs that a new plan for a police facility may be on a longer time frame than what previously had been envisioned. What I mean by that is there are a number of city commission candidates who are saying they support the idea that the department needs a new facility, but they don’t support a sales or property tax increase to pay for it.

It is not impossible to think that the city could figure out a way to address police facility needs without a tax increase.

But it likely would involve doing the project in phases, which could stretch it out over several years.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

Micheal Clodfelter, Lawrence Our 48-year-long romance and marriage were the direct result of a punji stake wound. I was a 20-year-old Kansas boy with the 101st Airborne Division in Vietnam, looking forward to a 90-day early discharge from the Army gained by extending my combat tour by an additional two months. She was a radiantly beautiful 18-year-old Tennessee girl named Rena Katherine.

Our paths would never have crossed had I not been walking point at the head of my platoon in December 1966 when, to avoid sniper fire, I failed to avoid a punji stake – a prolific, if primitive, booby trap made of bamboo and often smeared by the Viet Cong with water buffalo dung to spread infection. Having ripped my leg open, I spent a month in the hospital instead of the required two more in the bush. Consequently, I ended up back at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, for three more months of dreary garrison duty.

Soon after arriving “back in the world,” my new barracks buddies dragged me to an on-base nightclub where some of the “local beauties” congregated. There I encountered

Rena, ill at ease but glowing like an orchid among the weeds. She too had been shanghaied by some of her more party-hardy girlfriends, having finally consented, after much haranguing, to join them in their dalliance among the “doggies” (G.I.s).

We were both shy and introverted and both felt out of place, but it turned out to be the perfect place for us.

Four months later, by way of serendipity and the fortunes of war, we were married.

Joe and I first met when we were 10 years old.

Curtis Eisenhour, Olathe My wife and I first met on ChristianMingle.com in March 2010. After meeting in person, at my wife’s house in Lawrence, we instantly connected and both knew we were right for each other. As we courted and got to know each other deeper, we discovered we had crossed paths several years before. We both attended Chi Alpha, a college Christian fellowship group, in 2004 at Missouri State in Springfield, Mo. We even lived across the street from each other and had never met. Fast-forward to 2012 — our story was featured on Christian Mingle’s website and we ourselves were featured in a TV commercial that aired for over two years.

SATURDAY COLUMN

Congressional debates reflect lack of trust in Obama

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Recent headlines tell of President Obama asking members of Congress to give him “war powers” and report the president saying the debate tying up funding proposals for Homeland Security is jeopardizing national security.

Both of these matters are tremendously important to our country, and it’s clear the president faces major opposition on both issues. Obama’s immigration plan, which would receive funding under the Department of Homeland Security, is a major roadblock in the minds of many in Congress, and giving Obama the green light to launch military actions against ISIS, al-Qaida and other radical Islamic terrorists causes many lawmakers to have reservations.

It would be interesting to know the real reasons behind these reservations or roadblocks.

There are normal, legitimate

questions about both the war powers matter and the funding for Homeland Security, which includes funding for the president’s immigration plan. However, it’s likely many of those in Congress, as well as a majority of the public who question or opposed these issues, do so because they don’t trust Obama to take the right actions in either matter.

Late in his 2008 presidential campaign, he told an audience that they were only a few days away from being able to bring about fundamental changes in America. He was elected and set out to make those changes through executive orders and violating or twisting constitutional, congressional or presidential rules or procedures.

Obama has shown his ideas and feelings about the role of the U.S. in international affairs.

He almost apologizes for Uncle Sam. How would he use his war powers?

The issue of not having “boots on the ground” en-

gaged in live military action is misleading the public because there have been and continue to be U.S. forces carrying out specific actions such as identifying missile targets. There certainly are “contract” fighters directed by U.S. officials.

COMMENTARY The president has not leveled with the public. How can the public or members of Congress have confidence he would use his war powers in the best interest of the nation?

Former U.S. secretaries of Defense and former, as well as active generals and senior officers say the president takes the advice and initiates military actions put forward by a handful of political appointees and ignores the advice of experienced, well-trained military professionals.

Political advisers are more concerned about popularity

and voter approval than what might be in the best interest of the country. Which path would Obama follow?

Just this question is enough to cause many in Congress to hesitate to approve war powers authority for the president.

How much are they willing to trust the president to do the right thing?

On the Homeland Security matter, Obama has said the funding to protect our borders is his top concern because it affects this nation’s security.

It seems he already may have compromised national security by his actions that have allowed thousands of illegal immigrants to cross our borders.

How many of these illegals might be well-trained individuals who may be directed to carry out terrorist attacks here in the U.S.?

If ISIS, al-Qaida or other radical Islamic groups truly intend to see their flags flying over buildings in Washington,

D.C., how better to get their followers into America than to plant potential terrorists in the steady lines of illegals coming into the U.S.?

If national security is a top priority, why favor a plan that welcomes and encourages the illegals and, once they are here, grant them the rights and freedoms of legal Americans?

The vast majority of Americans and those in Congress want a president to have the power to call for military actions when necessary and craft reasonable immigration policies. But they count on the president making correct and timely decisions, not taking politically motivated actions.

Unfortunately, there is not the trust in Obama that the country and its citizens deserve. Obama has two more years in office and it would be great for the country if, by his actions, he could play the role of a statesman rather than a highly partisan politician.

Police investigating two Q: Thursday armed robberies A: open?

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

Lawrence police are investigating two reports of armed robberies committed Thursday with handguns, Lawrence Police Department spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said Friday.

The first occurred around 7:30 a.m. Thursday, when a 23-year-old woman said she went out to her vehicle parked in front of her home and a man armed with a handgun approached her, McKinley said. The man took the woman’s purse and car keys, then sped away in the victim’s green 2005 Dodge Caravan.

The car was valued

at about $5,000, and the victim said her cellphone and a “large sum of money” were in her purse, which the suspect also took, McKinley said.

The suspect was described as a black man about 20 years old, 5-feet10-inches tall, 160 pounds with dreadlocks and braided hair, McKinley said.

The victim was not injured in the incident.

As of Friday afternoon, police had not located the vehicle or suspect, McKinley said.

The second armed robbery occurred Thursday night at O’Reilly Auto Parts, 601 Kasold Drive, McKinley said.

Officers responded to a report of an armed man in a ski mask entering the store just after 9:15 p.m., McKinley said. Witnesses told officers the man demanded cash from employees, who complied.

McKinley said investigators are not releasing the amount of money taken at this point, which he said is standard practice in robbery cases.

The suspect fled the store by foot after the robbery, McKinley said.

Officers were unable to locate him. Detectives responded to the scene and helped process evidence and conduct interviews.

No one was injured in the incident, McKinley said, and no arrests had been made as of Friday afternoon.

The suspect in the second robbery is described as a white man, about 5-feet-11-inches tall, 165 pounds and wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, McKinley said.

Anyone with information about the incidents can call Lawrence at 8327509 or CrimeStoppers at 843-TIPS (8477).

BRIEFLY Speaker enrolls Keystone bill Washington — Congress’ Republican leadership has made it official, formally enrolling legislation to build the Keystone XL pipeline and urging President Barack Obama to sign it.

In a ceremony on Friday, Speaker John Boehner put his signature on the bill and called on Obama to “do the right thing” and add his name.

While the next stop for the measure is the White House — where Obama has threatened to veto it — Republicans will delay sending it over until after their weeklong recess.

That’s because they want to be in town when Obama vetoes it.

First proposed in 2008, the pipeline if approved would connect Canada’s tar sands to Gulf Coast refineries.

The White House has said repeatedly it will wait to make its decision until after a State Department review.

Lawmakers protect $280M for roads Topeka — A House panel has proposed scaling back the governor’s plan to strip $724 million from transportation projects, arguing that such a large cut would delay road repairs and drain a budget too often tapped to help fill gaps in other state spending.

The House Transportation Budget Committee unanimously approved an amendment Thursday that would allow about $444 milLEGISLATURE lion to be transferred out of the state’s infrastructure budget during fiscal years 2016 and 2017.

That’s about $280 million less than what Republican Gov. Sam Brownback has proposed.

Kansas transportation officials have said Brownback’s plan would cause delays in resurfacing and maintenance projects.

Republican Rep. Russell Jennings of Lakin said he proposed the budget amendment for two reasons: because the state has too often diverted money from infrastructure funding, and that doing so is dishonest to taxpayers because transportation funding mostly comes from taxes specifically approved for road projects or other infrastructure needs.

The television hums atop cardboard boxes.

We bask in the radioactive glow as steam from the bowl dances between our knees. You get most of the noodles; I drink down the rest. We do it in silence, an improvised ballet, an unspoken clause in the contract we made.

A salty kiss signals the end of the meal. I rinse the dishes in the kitchenette while you flick off the unfinished movie.

The television crackles into submission, the last wave of pale blue light washes over our bodies.

We have seen this movie before, memorized the plot twists and most of the dialogue. In fact, we had been ignoring it for hours.

me about his pet rabbit growing up. We stayed up the entire night getting to know each other, swapping stories and laughing. The next day he took me out for lunch at our mutual favorite Mexican place. On the way to the restaurant a Tool song came on the radio, and we both shouted “I love this song!” It was weird how much we had in common. After spending a lot of time together over three weeks, he proposed with a ring and a picture of us on our first date in a frame that said “Love.”

Of course I said yes. We got married less than a month later and have been together for three amazing years. He makes me laugh every day and I’m so grateful to have this wonderful guy in my life!

we believe it should be a book/movie someday, but I had to keep it under 200 words!

Matthew Pool, Lawrence We met dancing but never really spoke to each other much as each week went by. We had mutual friends but not much else in common (or so we thought). She then went off for two years to teach children in the Philippines and soon after I was deployed to Iraq. Both far away from home, we found each other online and awake when the rest of the world we knew and longed for was asleep. When we came home within a month of each other we agreed to help each other readjust to American life, and our friendship blossomed. I casually slipped into one of our conversations that I was happy with our friendship but if it eventually turned into something more I would be happy with that as well. She got the hint. On our six-month anniversary I took her to our favorite coffee shop in Lawrence (a place where we knew the staff very well) and ordered the special, which I had arranged ahead of time to say in chalk: “Betsy, Will you marry me?” The barista handed me the ring from behind the counter as I got on one knee, and the rest is history.

Lynn Decoeck, Lawrence If you had asked me when I was 13 if I thought I’d meet my future husband within a year, I would have said you were crazy.

But at 14, I met him, a year older than me and so cute he had a following of girls who liked him. I didn’t think I had a chance. But we did become friends and enjoyed hanging out with our group of friends.

He asked me out about a year later and still, as terrific as this puppy love was, I had no idea how wonderful it would become. We learned that we were exact opposites and we learned how beautiful that was.

His engineer’s mind and scientific approach to life complemented my more artistic and aesthetic style. As some of my friends decided to break up or get married right after high school, my sweetheart and I attended separate colleges, continuing our relationship long distance and taking it a day at a time. Amazingly, nearly 20 years later, despite 700 miles between us while he attended graduate school and I worked in the theater, we survived, he proposed and we now await our fourth child due in a few months.

Dear Annie: I’m looking for an essay that appeared in your column a few years ago. It was about an elderly man who was celebrating a birthday.

He spent the whole day waiting, but no one came to see him. I visited my mother today in a nursing home.

He was 79. He got up early, shaved, showered, combed his hair and put on his Sunday best

Tonight’s TV offerings have heart Hearts and flowers abound on a Valentine’s Day-themed TV schedule. Rosie O’Donnell, fresh from her departure from “The View,” presents a “A Heartfelt Stand Up” (9 p.m., HBO). In between folksy asides about parenthood and common geography shared with her Rockland County, New York, audience at the Levity Live Comedy Club inside the Palisades Center mall, O’Donnell discusses heart disease among women and the little-known fact that it claims the lives of more w o m e n each year than all cancers combined.

She shares anecdotes about her own bout with heart disease and how her lack of awareness prevented her from seeking treatment after more than two days of extreme discomfort, a delay that could easily have cost O’Donnell her life.

On a similarly “grownup” theme, Kimberly Elise stars in the 2015 TV drama “Back to School Mom” (7 p.m., Lifetime) about a 41-year-old woman returning to school to finish the degree she had pursued at the time she became a mother.

Hallmark concludes a twoweek buildup to Valentine’s Day with “All of My Heart” (7 p.m.). Straight out of the network’s playbook, it concerns a high-powered caterer who learns to take stock when she inherits a country home and begins to adjust to life at a more bucolic pace.

Tonight’s other highlights

NASCAR racing in the Sprint Unlimited (7 p.m., Fox), live from Daytona, Florida.

Daniel Radcliffe stars in the 2002 sequel “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” (7 p.m., ABC).

Tales of drift on “MythBusters” (8 p.m., Discovery).

Eleanor chooses sides on “Black Sails” (8 p.m., Starz).

Valentine’s Day skits past and present on a “Saturday Night Live” (9 p.m., NBC) special.

Cult choice

A seemingly willful balloon

follows a young boy through the streets of Paris in the 34-minute 1956 fantasy short “The Red Balloon” (7 p.m., TCM), a film with almost no dialogue that won an Oscar for best original screenplay.

so he would look nice when they came.

He skipped his daily walk to the town cafe where he had coffee with his cronies. He wanted to be home when they came.

He put his porch chair on the sidewalk so he could get a better view of the street when they drove up to help celebrate his birthday.

At noon, he got tired but decided to forgo his nap so he could be there when they came.

Most of the rest of the afternoon he spent near the telephone so he could answer it when they called.

He has five married children, 13 grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren.

One son and a daughter live within 10 miles of his place. They hadn’t visited him for a long time.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, Feb. 14: This year you often might find yourself spending beyond your means. If you learn to release your frustrations and anger in an appropriate manner, you will have more control over your finances. If you are single, you will have quite a few potential suitors. If you are attached, your significant other will be a good teammate in helping you address habits that you would like to eliminate.

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) Pressure builds, which could force you to take responsibility for a work-related matter.

Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Use the morning to get closer to a partner or loved one. A friend could be unusually aggressive. Tonight: Be entertained.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) The onslaught of people around you could set you back.

Rethink your priorities. Tonight: Teamwork counts.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Someone’s controlling attitude could be the source of some frustration. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You’ll have the intention of being more spontaneous with a loved one. Tonight: Make it an early night.

But today was his birthday and they were sure to come.

At suppertime, he left the cake untouched so they could cut it and have dessert with him. After supper, he sat on the porch waiting.

At 8:30, he went to his room to prepare for bed. Before retiring, he left a note on the door that read: ‘’Be sure to wake me when you come.”

It was Grandfather’s birthday. He was 79.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Take your time getting up. You will need all the energy you can muster up in the afternoon. Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Don’t hesitate to proceed as you would like. You might want to invite a friend over later.

Tonight: Make a special dinner.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Though you might hold your tongue in the morning, you’ll be telling it like it is by the afternoon. Tonight: Get to know a loved one better.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Move quickly on an important matter. Understand where someone else is coming from.

Tonight: At a fun happening.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Get as much accomplished as possible before meeting a friend for a late lunch. Tonight: As you like it.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might decide to find a few friends and throw a spontaneous party. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You might want to tell someone off, but it would be wiser to keep your feelings to yourself. Tonight: Hook up with your friends.

U.S. foreign policy faces strategic paralysis Washington — His secretary of defense says “the world is exploding all over.” His attorney general says that the threat of terror “keeps me up at night.” The world bears them out. On Tuesday, American hostage Kayla Mueller is confirmed dead. On Wednesday, the U.S. evacuates its embassy in Yemen, cited

by President Obama last September as an American success in fighting terrorism.

“

This passivity — strategic, syntactical, ideological — is more than just a reaction to the perceived overreach of the Bush years.”

alarming lassitude and passivity.

Not to worry, says his national security adviser: This is not World War II. As if one should be reassured because the current chaos has yet to achieve the level of the most devastating conflict in human history.

Indeed, insists the president, the real source of our metastasizing anxiety is ... the news media.

Russia pushes deep into eastern Ukraine.

The Islamic State burns to death a Jordanian pilot. Iran extends its hegemony over four Arab capitals — Beirut, Damascus, Baghdad and now Sanaa.

And America watches.

Obama calls the policy “strategic patience.”

That’s a synonym for “inaction,” made to sound profoundly “strategic.”

Take Russia. The only news out of Obama’s one-hour press conference with Angela Merkel this week was that he still can’t make up his mind whether to supply Ukraine with defensive weapons. The Russians have sent in T-80 tanks and Grad rocket launchers. We’ve sent in humanitarian aid that includes blankets, MREs and psychological counselors.

How complementary: The counselors do grief therapy for those on the receiving end of the T-80 tank fire. “I think the Ukrainian people

can feel confident that we have stood by them,” said Obama at the news conference.

Indeed. And don’t forget the blankets. America was once the arsenal of democracy, notes Elliott Abrams. We are now its linen closet.

Why no anti-tank and other defensive weapons? Because we are afraid that arming the victim of aggression will anger the aggressor.

Such on-the-ground appeasement goes well with the linguistic appeasement whereby Obama dares not call radical Islam by name.

And whereby both the White House and State Department spend much of a day insisting that the attack on the kosher grocery in Paris had nothing to do with Jews. It was just, as the president said, someone “randomly shoot[ing] a bunch of folks in a deli.” (By the end of the day, the administration backed off this idiocy. By tweet.)

This passivity — strategic, syntactical, ideological — is more than just a reaction to the perceived overreach of the Bush years. Or a fear of failure.

Or bowing to the domestic left. It is, above all, rooted in Obama’s deep belief that we — America, Christians, the West — lack the moral authority to engage, to project, i.e., to lead.

Before we condemn the atrocities of others, intoned Obama at the National Prayer Breakfast, we shouldn’t “get on our high horse.” We should acknowledge having authored the Crusades, the Inquisition, slavery, etc. “in the name of Christ.”

In a rare rhetorical feat, Obama managed to combine the banal and the repulsive. After all, is it really a revelation that all religions have transgressed, that man is fallen? To the adolescent Columbia undergrad, that’s a profundity. To a roomful of faith leaders, that’s an insult to one’s intelligence.

And in deeply bad taste. A coalition POW is burned alive and the reaction of the alliance leader barely 48 hours later is essentially: “Hey, but what about Joan of Arc?” Obama’s Christianshave-sinned dismissal of the West’s moral standing is not new, however.

It is just a reprise of the theme of his post-inauguration 2009 confessional world tour. From Strasbourg to Cairo and the U.N. General Assembly, he indicted his own country, as I chronicled at the time, “for arrogance, for dismissiveness and derisiveness (toward Europe), for maltreatment of natives, for torture, for Hiroshima, for Guantánamo, for unilateralism, and for insufficient respect for the Muslim world.”

The purpose and the effect of such an indictment is to undermine any moral claim to American world leadership. The line between the Washington prayer breakfast and the Ukrainian grief counselors is direct and causal. Once you’ve discounted your own moral authority, once you’ve undermined your own country’s moral self-confidence, you cannot lead.

If, during the very week Islamic supremacists achieve “peak barbarism” with the immolation of a helpless prisoner, you cannot take them on without apologizing for sins committed a thousand years ago, you have prepared the ground for strategic paralysis.

All that’s left is to call it strategic patience.

PUBLIC FORUM

Mental health, jail To the editor: Before we consider the jail expansion, we should consider the expansion of the mental health hospitals or institutions. Many of the beds in the jail are set aside for victims of mental illness who cannot be taken care of effectively by the police. Just because the state closes mental hospitals doesn’t mean the problems will go away.

Why should the police have to deal with mental health issues in the jails?

Is this their area of expertise? This is not fair to the inmates or the police.

This is another result of faulty health care by our state. Dare we let the seriously mentally ill be integrated into the community with guns to kill children, social workers, friends trying to help them, patrons of theaters, road rage people, and drive-by shootings.

No incentives

To the editor: About two years ago, entrepreneurs built a lovely Comfort Inn and Suites adjacent to McDonald Drive and the Hallmark facility. It has more than ample private parking. It was built without a single cent of tax rebates or other incentives.

As long as investors are willing and able to build hotels in Lawrence without taxpayer-financed kickbacks, the city has absolutely no business handing out subsidies! No study has shown that we have a shortage of hotel rooms, and no study has shown that more hotels will improve our quality of life.

Given the murky record of needless recent incentives and no-bid contracts, the Lawrence City Commission would do residents a favor by tabling all rebate and incentive issues until the next commission takes office. Will we instead see a flurry To the editor: of tax rebate handouts in the waning Saturday evening I either dropped days of this commission? or left my wallet at Target.

Over the next six to eight weeks, check the planting media regularly to ensure that it stays moist. Frequency of watering depends on how much light the plant receives, type of media used and temperature.

Avoid saturating the plant or letting it completely dry out if at all possible. During this time, the pineapple top should develop roots. If the top instead shows signs of rotting or decay or the base begins to deteriorate, start over.

Once the top has developed a root system, transplant the plant into a larger container with regular potting mix. Remember to use potting media or potting mix rather than garden soil for best success in

containers. Place the transplanted plant back in bright, indirect light.

After a few weeks of adjusting to the new container, move the pineapple plant to a sunny window. Water and fertilize as needed to maintain plant health.

Plants can be moved outdoors for the summer but will die in temperatures below 28 degrees.

Pineapple plants grow slowly, so plan on two to three years before fruit production. By this time, the plant may be up to 2 feet tall. Fruiting can be encouraged by placing the plant in a clear plastic bag with an apple for three to four days. Apples give off ethylene gas, which stimulates flowering and fruit ripening for many plants. Flowering should occur within two to three months after the apple treatment and the fruit will develop from the flower.

The American Civil Liberties Union took a step Friday to speed up an appeal it filed last year challenging Kansas’ ban on gay marriage.

“We wanted to get it moving again,” said Doug Bonney, legal director for the ACLU of Kansas.

The ACLU’s latest motion asks U.S. District Judge Daniel Crabtree to find unconstitutional state laws that refuse to recognize the marriages of same-sex couples whether the ceremony is performed

in Kansas or in another state.

The motion also asks Judge Crabtree to issue a preliminary injunction against Kansas laws that do not recognize gay marriages.

In addition, the motion asks that the injunction compel the state to treat same-sex marriages the same as other marriages.

If the judge agrees and issues the injunction, the state also would have to recognize income tax filings of gay married

couples, health coverage for spouses of government employees and name changes of spouses on driver’s licenses.

The ACLU originally filed the lawsuit in October for couples denied marriage license in Douglas and Sedgwick counties. The nation’s high court blocked Kansas form enforcing its ban while the case is heard, clearing the way for same-sex marriages to take place in parts of the state.

Garden Variety

f you are ready for a fun winter gardening project, try growing your own pineapple plant. The process to get one started is simple, and the bragging rights over the homegrown fruit are priceless.

The easiest way to grow a pineapple plant is to start with a pineapple fruit. Shop for one with healthy green foliage at the top, as this is the start for the new plant. When you get the pineapple home, remove the top by cutting the pineapple about a half-inch below the base of the leaves.

Then, carefully trim away the edges of the fruit in that half-inch portion to leave only the hard core tissue in the center. Remove a few of the leaves right around the base also.

The short piece of core at the bottom of the pineapple top needs to dry before planting, so leave it on the counter for a few days. Then, when the top is ready for planting, fill a small container with perlite, vermiculite or coarse sand (available at most garden centers).

Make sure the container has drainage holes in the bottom, and moisten the planting media thoroughly before planting. Insert the pineapple top into

Weis says coaching return unlikely

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Former Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis, who was hired by KU in 2011 and fired four games into his third season with the Jayhawks in 2014, may be hanging up his whistle for good.

“I think it’s highly doubtful that I will ever coach again,” the 58-year-old Weis said in a recent interview with Eric Hansen of the South Bend (Indiana) Tribune.

Whether Weis’ hunch comes true remains to be seen. But Weis always has said that Weis he could see himself coaching again if the fit were right. However, after he left Lawrence last fall, many people, including Weis himself, believed at least part of the requirement for the right fit would be a job in professional football. His name was linked to several offensive-coordinator openings in the NFL this winter, but nothing materialized.

During his eight seasons as a college head coach — five at Notre Dame from 2005-09 and parts of three at Kansas from 2012-14 — Weis racked up an overall record of 41-49. That included nine-win and 10-win seasons at Notre Dame in 2005 and 2006 and two BCS bowl appearances. However, after his initial success, Weis never again won more than seven games in a single season and went just 6-22 in his two-plus seasons at KU. The former New England Patriots offensive coordinator and owner of four Super Bowl rings, who will open the year out of coaching for the first time since 1978, told Hansen he wished his headcoaching career had gone as well as his time as an assistant.

“Would you like the last thing people remember you by in coaching as being great and walking out on top? Of course, you’d like that.” Weis said. “But, realistically, if you’re not a hypocrite about the things that are really important to you, why just go take a job in the NFL just so people will say, ‘Well, you went out with a better taste?’”

Weis, who is still being paid by both Notre Dame and Kansas, told Hansen he planned to dive head-first into more philanthropic work, some of which will aid the Hannah & Friends foundation he started with his wife, Maura, and some that will benefit new organizations.

Regardless of the way things have played out, if Weis has reached the end of the road on his coaching career, the New Jersey native harbors no ill will or regrets.

“I’m not mad at Notre Dame, and I’m not mad at Kansas,” he told Hansen. “I just wish I could have lasted longer.”

While Charlie Weis Sr. might have run his last practice, Charlie Weis Jr., who served as a team manager at KU, might be just getting started with his coaching career. According to the article, Weis Jr. finished his online classes for graduation just this week and might be close to landing a job as a college graduate assistant or in an entry-level role with an NFL team.

Ellis set to join 1,000-point club

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Perry Ellis, who has expanded his range to hit 13 three-pointers in 2014-15 after making eight treys his sophomore season and two his freshman campaign, needs just three points today against Baylor to join the 1,000-point club at Kansas University.

“It’s real humbling to be able to play for Kansas and get the opportunity to do that,” the 6-foot-8 junior power forward from Wichita

said. “I just feel blessed to be in this position. I’m just going to keep working hard,” added Ellis, who is Ellis striving to become the 56th player in KU history to reach the 1,000 mark.

He’ll be the first Jayhawk to 1,000 since Thomas Robinson in the 2011-12 season.

Ellis averages 12.9 points per game for Kansas (20-4

overall, 9-2 Big 12) heading into today’s noon game at Allen Fieldhouse against Baylor (18-6, 6-5).

“We’re playing Baylor.

He’s going to need more than three points,” KU coach Bill Self said. Ellis scored just four points off 2-of-8 shooting in KU’s 56-55 win over the Bears on Jan. 7 in Waco, Texas.

“But I think that it is a great accomplishment. There’s not as many kids doing that in today’s time as what there was before because kids don’t stay for three or four years,” Self

added. “If he were to stay here for all four years, he could be in that 1,500 range, possibly one of the top 20 scorers in school history, which would be a great accomplishment at a place like this, or that would put him in that vicinity. But we’re certainly proud of Perry and certainly hope it happens early in the first half Saturday.”

If Ellis bypasses the NBA Draft and does eclipse the 1,500 mark, he’d indeed be 20th-leading scorer in

LHS boys roll past Olathe Northwest, 70-34

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Early in the fourth quarter on Friday night, Lawrence High senior Anthony Bonner caught a pass about 30 feet away from the basket.

After a slight hesitation,

Bonner fired away. After his shot clanked off the side of the rim, he turned to LHS boys basketball coach Mike Lewis and gave him a smile.

Lewis couldn’t blame his team for having a little fun in a 70-34 rout of Olathe Northwest at LHS. The Lions wore

their red-and-white-striped tear-away pants in pre-game warmups for the first time this season and were loose from the opening tip.

“Those are supposed to be cursed,” senior guard Ben Rajewksi said of the pants.

“We were trying to break the

curse. But in all seriousness, we knew that was a really good team, and we had to get off to a good start and get after them.”

Scoring drought dooms Firebirds

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Layups, open three-pointers, jumpers. Name it, and Free State’s boys basketball team couldn’t hit it during a stretch that began in the first quarter and lasted into the second half Friday night, costing the Firebirds any chance of earning a victory against Olathe South.

After hitting the first four field-goal attempts of the night, Free State’s shooting touch disappeared for more than 14 minutes of game clock, as the Firebirds missed 14 straight shots from the field in a 63-51 loss at FSHS. Junior FSHS forward Hunter Gudde scored in transition after a Weston

Hack steal with under five minutes left in the first quarter, but the Firebirds’ next field goal didn’t come until senior Justin Narcomey gathered his own miss and put the ball through the net with 5:19 left in the third quarter.

Free State missed all eight field goals in the second quarter, when it scored a single point, on a Gudde free throw.

“You get outscored 13-1 in the second quarter and you lose by 12 points,” Firebirds coach Chuck Law said after the game. “I’m not really excellent at math, but that seems like a 12-point difference.”

Two years after snub, Curry is the man New York (ap) — Stephen Curry will take on his teammate and team up with his father, then finally take the floor as the leading vote-getter for the All-Star game.

The Golden State Warriors’ guard might be the man of the weekend, and even he can’t believe how quickly it’s happened after he was an All-Star snub just two years ago.

“I remember where I was the night I didn’t hear my name called and thought that was a real possibility,” he said. “I was in Chicago sitting in the hotel room watching the announcements and obviously (David) Lee was a representative, so happy for him, but in two short years obviously where it is now, it’s unreal.”

Curry rebounded from not getting chosen in 2013, when he had the highest scoring average among players not picked, by being a first-time selection last year. He finished more than 42,000 votes ahead of LeBron James to be the top vote-getter this season, and he heads to the break as a leading candidate for the MVP award.

The Warriors have the NBA’s best record and will be well-represented on Sunday.

Steve Kerr will coach the Western Conference, and he tapped Curry’s backcourt mate, Klay Thompson, to start in place of the injured Kobe Bryant.

The night before, Curry and Thompson are part of an elite field for the All-Star Saturday 3-point contest. Curry will also team up with his father, Dell, a former NBA player, and the WNBA’s Sue Bird in the shooting stars competition.

He says there is more pressure to beat his teammate than there is to not lose with his dad.

“The Currys have never won a 3-point contest, so I think that’s probably the more pressure,” he said.

Even if he loses them all, it’s a big weekend for Curry. His career-high performance of 54 points in February 2013 came at Madison Square Garden, site of Sunday’s game, not long after the last All-Star game that went on without him.

Hard to imagine him missing another one any time soon.

“Just to be on a winning team, best record in the West and have the vision that we have for this team this year,” Curry said, “and then all the other stuff that comes from that when it comes to personal accolades and acknowledgements and all that stuff, kind of try to keep it in perspective because it is crazy.

“In two years, that’s a lot that’s happened.”

One city, two arenas: The Friday and Saturday events go to Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, while the Knicks’ Madison Square Garden hosts the AllStar game Sunday. The teams may be rivals on the court, but Commissioner Adam Silver insists it was easy to get them to share the festivities.

KU-TEXAS WOMEN AT A GLANCE Who: Kansas vs. Texas When: 7 tonight Where: Allen Fieldhouse Series: Longhorns lead 18-10; series tied at 6 in Lawrence

KU-UT Part Deux KU opened Big 12 play with a 14-point loss at Texas back on Jan. 3, which set the tone for five straight losses in conference play. The Longhorns, unbeaten and ranked No. 3 at the time, led KU by just four points at halftime before outscoring the Jayhawks by 10 in the second half. Kansas shot just 36 percent from the field in that loss and also lost the turnover battle, 19-11, and rebounding war, 39-31.

Importance of the paint The Longhorns are outscoring their opponents by an average of 14 points per game (35-21) in the paint this season. That edge has

dipped to a 29-22 advantage in Big 12 play, but this one definitely could come down to which team does better near the basket. The Longhorns also have outrebounded 22 of their 23 opponents this season.

Streaking Since scoring just seven points and turning it over six times in a road loss to Baylor on Feb. 1, KU senior Chelsea Gardner has responded bigtime. The 6-foot-3 forward has scored in double figures during the past three KU games, averaging 18.3 points and nine rebounds per outing during that stretch. She also has recorded nine blocks and turned the ball over just five times combined in those three games.

Slumping The Longhorns have lost four straight in Big 12 play since knocking off Oklahoma,

84-81 in double OT, back on Jan. 29. During that time, UT dropped games at TCU, Kansas State and Oklahoma State and also lost by just two at home to Baylor. Texas’ four losses during its recent losing skid have come by an average of just five points per game.

in the first six minutes of the first quarter. Junior point guard Justin Roberts buried a jumper and slashed for a layup, Bonner and Rajewski drained three-pointers, and junior forward Price Morgan hit a pair of free throws.

The Ravens (11-5) closed within seven points in the second quarter, and the Lions responded with an 8-0 run to end the half. LHS forced three turnovers on defense while Bonner, Roberts and senior forward Logan Applegate scored in the stretch.

“You come out and you kind of go, ‘Holy cow, we’re really feeling it,’” Lewis said after his team made nine of 21 threes. “We were making the extra pass and setting our guys up for the open shot. Then we start hitting them, and the momentum just really goes our way.”

After taking a 15-point lead into halftime, Bonner opened the second half with three-pointers on back-to-back possessions, starting a 17-2 run over five minutes. He didn’t stop after that, scoring on a layup-andthe-foul bucket a few minutes later and drilling a three in the final seconds before the thirdquarter buzzer.

Morgan also added seven points in the third quarter. The Lions only turned the ball over once throughout the night and limited the Ravens to 29 percent shooting (12-for41).

“It’s one of the last home games,” said Bonner, who scored a game-

Firebirds CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

The frustrated coach noticed a common theme during the exasperating stretch, as FSHS tried to run its sets and repeatedly failed to execute.

“We were so lackadaisical with our cutting. We just weren’t crisp through that whole stretch,” Law said. “I don’t know that anybody necessarily wanted the ball to go make a play.”

Gudde figured it had to be the coldest the Firebirds (8-7) have been since having offensive issues a couple months back.

“We started out that way this season,” he said after scoring 15 points, tying Hack for the team lead, “but we’ve grown from it, and we’ve been hitting shots lately for the past four games. We just didn’t hit them tonight.”

The Falcons (7-7) matched up well with FSHS, which Law ex-

school annals. To be a top-10 scorer, he’d need 1,753 points.

“Perry is great. You know, Perry, he can be frustrating at times because I want him to (attack at all times), but he’s a great kid, and he’s fun to coach. His personality has really come out, I think, in the last year or so. He’s a stud, and he’s been a great ambassador for our university and for our program, and he’ll continue to do so,” Self said.

Sophomore guard Wayne Selden Jr., who has 579 career points, says he’s “really excited for him when he gets a chance to score his 1,000th point. He means a lot. He’s basically the best scorer on our team, the best low-post presence when it comes to scoring. He can score from all places on the floor.”

“That’s awesome. You don’t see that as much from a talented player like him. Most don’t stay that long,” said sophomore Landen Lucas. “To have Perry be part of this team has been great. It’s really fun for us to watch this happen.” l

The Lions won, 70-34. high 21 points. “I’ll never have that experience to run out with these guys again or come out of the starting lineup with these guys again. So every play, every second, I’m just cherishing it and having as much fun as I can.”

Midway through the fourth quarter, the Lions emptied their bench, and the hot shooting continued. Junior Anthony Harvey and sophomore Jackson Mallory drilled threes, and senior Tae Shorter made a free throw.

Senior Kyle Hoffman, who entered after the LHS student section chanted his name, made a three-pointer before the final buzzer at the top of the arc.

“That’s awesome. I’ve

pected. He said O-South’s players resemble Free State’s in their ability to shoot, pass or drive and described the visitors as “a hair” more athletic overall. The Falcons, however, executed, with seniors Taylor Filbert and Jayden Davis (15 points apiece) leading the way.

O-South made 18 of 31 field goals, and when Free State had to foul, in catchup mode, the Falcons hit 20 of 23 free throws in the second half, including 14 of 17 in the fourth quarter.

“We’re a team that’s going to struggle coming from behind,” Law said after FSHS got as close as six points with 2:29 to play in the fourth, following a Hack drive and three-point play. “We don’t have a lot of firepower. We don’t have an ability necessarily to turn people over.”

Down 39-27 entering the fourth, Free State hit eight of 11 shots in the final eight minutes, and sophomores Sloan Thomsen and Jay Dineen each made a three-pointer.

“We started too

known Kyle since we were little kids, and he’s worked so hard,” Rajewski said. “To see him come out to hit that shot — it was pure.”

The Lions will travel to Shawnee Mission North at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

late,” Gudde said. “We should’ve been out from the start as hard as we could go. But we started out slow and just didn’t play our best defense.

That’s why we lost.”

The setback came after Free State had won three games in a row for the first time this season. Law said the players may have read too many of their press clippings.

“We hadn’t laid an egg in a while,” the coach added. “Maybe we were due for one, and it came tonight.”

Baylor vs. Kansas

On Baylor: Baylor is 6-3 in conference play since its one-point loss to KU. In that game, 6-8 junior forward Rico Gathers erupted for 14 rebounds (nine offensive) and nine points in 29 minutes.

“At least he didn’t get 20,” Self said, referring to boards. “I think he’s played himself into the conversation for Player of the Year in our league.

He’s a monster in there.

He does a great job of going after every ball.”

“He’s good. He’s physical,” said Lucas, who had two boards in four minutes in Waco. “He is a very good offensive rebounder. It will be a focus for us to make sure he doesn’t get a ton of offensive rebounds.”

KU’s Jamari Traylor scored 13 points against BU’s zone, while Brannen Greene hit two threes and had 12 points. Frank Mason III had 11 points and five assists. BU point guard Kenny Chery had 25 points off 8-of14 shooting. He hit four threes in seven tries.

“You’ve got to get in gaps and be able to get the ball flat, then of course you want to be able to attack the middle of it,” Self said of the zone. “You’ve still got to make shots.”

BRIEFLY KU baseball drops opener against LSU Baton Rouge, La. — Kansas University’s baseball team was held to four hits in its 4-1 loss to No. 2-ranked LSU in the Jayhawks’ season opener Friday night.

FREE STATE GUARD HANNAH WALTER SHOOTS OVER OLATHE SOUTH’S KALA HOLDER in the Firebirds’ 46-25 loss Friday at FSHS.

Falcons stifle FSHS girls

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Free State High’s girls basketball team has experienced its fair share of stifling defenses this season, but Olathe South might have outdone them all Friday night at FSHS. The Firebirds often see opponents game-plan to take away high-scoring sophomore guard Madison Piper, but the Falcons did that while shutting down all of her teammates as well in a 46-25 victory over the Firebirds.

“They were very well disciplined on defense,” Free State coach Bryan Duncan said of Class 6A’s No. 3-ranked team after his No. 7 Firebirds were held to a season-low point total, “and they had a great plan. They took away our two top scorers (Piper and senior Sarah Coversup), and we didn’t have a lot of other scoring opportunities.”

It took FSHS (11-4) the entire first half to match O-South’s 14-point firstquarter output, because the Firebirds kept turning the ball over in the second quarter, which they entered trailing by just five points.

The Falcons (12-3) relentlessly pressured the Firebirds’ guards, rendering them uncomfortable and willing to throw panicked, mistake-prone passes.

In the meantime, OSouth worked quickly on offense and got the looks it wanted on the way to a 7-for-12 shooting effort in the second.

On the other end of the floor, Free State opened

the quarter giving away the ball five times before even attempting a field goal.

Piper’s drive and floater in the paint with 4:10 left in the first half, which also drew a foul for a three-point play, proved to be the home team’s lone bucket in a troublesome second quarter that had the Firebirds in a 15-point hole by halftime.

Never this season, Duncan said, had FSHS had so many issues merely creating shot attempts.

O-South’s assertive defense led to 18 Free State turnovers, and the Firebirds mustered eight field goals on 19 shot attempts.

“Over the course of the game, it ate us up,” Duncan said. “We knew we needed to get the ball to certain places off of certain plays to be successful, and we just were not able to get anywhere close to where the ball needed to be.”

Piper, often face-guarded and denied touches within half-court sets, hit five of her nine shots and scored 11 points, while Coversup did most of her damage at the free-throw line, hitting six of seven on a 10-point night.

Coversup made both of her field-goal attempts, and senior Adriana Jadlow converted one of six.

No one else made a field goal for FSHS, which played without injured starting guards Cameryn Thomas and Jaycie Bishop.

Junior Falcons guard Kacey Kennett scored a game-high 15 points for O-South, which shot 20for-42 and turned the ball over just eight times.

Emma Wilson added eight points, while Holly Scott, Alyssa Krestan and Maci Dressler rounded out the scoring for Veritas with four points each.

Veritas head coach Kevin Shelton credited the Eagles’ man-to-man defense as the key to bring his team back to the .500 mark at 9-9.

“I think that is what got us going tonight,” Shelton said. “Our man defense is better than our zone.”

The Eagles will have a weeklong layoff before playing host to Marais des Cygnes Valley at 6:30 p.m. Friday.

After a few bad starts in recent games, Lawrence High’s girls basketball team refused to fall into the same mistakes Friday against Olathe Northwest.

The Lions fought to a seven-point lead at halftime, but couldn’t avoid problems with turnovers in the second half in a 5348 loss at LHS. The Ravens (7-9) opened the third quarter with a 17-2 run in the first five minutes. After shooting 4-for-24 from behind the three-point line in the first half, Olathe Northwest hit four threes in that stretch.

But instead of just fading away, the Lions cut their 34-26 deficit to just three points by the end of the third quarter. Senior point guard Marissa Pope scored seven points in the period, while junior forward Alexis Boyd added two turnaround jumpers, and senior forward Matia Finley made a layup.

The Lions (3-13) shot 3-for-17 from the field in the fourth quarter, but played tight defense and trailed 46-43 with 1:36 left after Boyd made a free

throw. Olathe Northwest junior Annemarie Boeh responded with a baseline drive for a layup, and the Lions couldn’t pull any closer.

“I was really proud of how we played,” said Pope, who scored 14 points and had three assists. “We haven’t played a whole game that well all season. That’s the best we’ve played in a whole game. So that was really nice to see.”

The Lions ended the first half on a 12-0 run over the final four minutes, using side-to-side ball movement to attack Olathe Northwest’s 2-3 zone.

Sophomore guard Olivia Lemus scored five points in the stretch, sophomore guard Skylar Drum added three, and Boyd had four.

“I was actually proud of my team today. I thought we fought the whole time,” said Finley, who grabbed a game-high 17 rebounds to go with six points. “I think we just really worked together this game, worked it around and just really found the good shots.”

The Ravens went 10for-46 (22 percent) from three-point range.

Pope focused on Ravens senior point guard

Shaleia Jamison, who ranks fourth in the Sunflower League with 16 points per game. Jamison didn’t attempt a shot in the first half. She finished with nine points.

“I liked our fight,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said. “I liked the way we battled. I liked our leadership. I liked our communication. I felt like, for what’s a very young team, I thought we grew up a little bit tonight.”

“I’ve been excited to work with this group all season long,” Dickson added. “But I saw a lot more excitement out of them. I saw them shedding some of the stuff from the past and kind of just coming out and playing.”

adopt-a-pet aDora

Adora believes that all we need is love, love and more love. Once she gets started, she will serenade you with the love songs she has learned during her 6 years of life. She is a soft Domestic Short Hair with blue cream and white dilute calico colors.

She also has some cute freckles on her little pink nose.

Her specialties are hugs and love sonnets. Her goal is to spread love and happiness wherever she goes.

atlas

There are many other names that would fit sweet Atlas. They might be Good Boy, Lap Dog, or Cuddle Buddy. He is a 1 year old American Pit Bull Terrier mix and has a black coat with some white mixed in. He loves to have his chin scratched and wants nothing more than to be with you. He does well on the leash and should do well in almost any family.

Don’t miss out on this great pup.

afentra

Afentra has been keeping a low profile, but wouldn’t mind if you came and introduced yourself. She is a 3 year old Domestic Short Hair with black brown tiger markings. She is a petite little girl at about 6 lbs.

Like all of the other cats here, we always recommend giving the new cat time to adapt to their new environment, especially if you have other pets. Visit with her and see if you hit it off.

Dawn

There are times I wish I could write a short story for some of the animals here. Dawn is one of them. She is a gorgeous 6 year old Pit Bull Terrier mix and has been here longer than she should be. Look at her smiling face and beautiful tan and white markings. She is tolerant of other dogs and has learned some useful tricks since she has been here.

Come meet this sweetie today.

Meghan

You get some serious wiggles from Meghan.

Sometimes you can’t tell which end is up. Waggles and wiggles aside, you also are getting a very sweet dog. She is a 3 year old Boxer mix and has a soft white and tan coat.

She weighs about 48 lbs. and is a good athlete. She is all about the play and needs to learn some big girl manners. An active family or single person would be perfect for her.

Cassie

Because she is 8 years old, Cassie is considered a senior. In her case it is obvious she has learned a few things as she has aged. She is one of the calmer cats in Cat-topia and seems to do well with the other cats.

Normally red tiger striped cats are male, so she is one of those rare exceptions. She is a Domestic Short Hair and weighs about 10 lbs. She also is eligible for our Seniors for Seniors program.

MauriCe

No matter what we did, Maurice always had his tongue out in all the photos. Guess he prefers the natural look. He is a 6 year old Labrador Retriever mix with an all black coat and weighs in around 51 lbs. If you only have room for one dog, he would be happy to be the one.

He is an active guy, so a good walking buddy would be a good fit for him.

Mulberry

Mulberry will take some time to feel at home, so be patient. After some time, she will be happy to soak up all the love and affection you can give.

She is a sweet Domestic Short Hair with black white red and calico markings. She is 4 years old and a petite 6 lbs. She is very much in need of some serious snuggle time and will thrive on your attention.

She has every intention of being your best girl.

Vasily

Vasily has the confidence needed to be the top cat in any situation. He has found his place in the Cat-topia room. That place would be on the couch. He is a gorgeous Domestic Long Hair with an all black coat. He is a little over 2 years old, but carries himself with the air of a much older guy. He is aloof with other cats and can be independent with people. Can you share your couch?

rhiannon

Rhiannon has reached diva status and has no desire to be any other way. She is a beautiful 5 year old Domestic Short Hair (we don’t tell her she is a mix) with a lustrous soft all-white coat. She believes she should be treated according to her self-appointed station in life. She will not socialize with the younger humans, so no little ones please. She will dole out snuggles when and if she pleases. The queen has spoken.

CJ

It wouldn’t be right to overlook one of the senior cats in residence here. CJ is a 14 year old Domestic Long Hair and has brown black tiger markings. She came in with another cat, so she should do okay with another cat in the home.

One of her greatest goals is to have a big sunny window to lounge in front of and watch the world go by. A bird feeder to monitor would be a plus.

tank

You might think that because my name is Tank that I am like a big bulldozer. Nope. I may be a Rottweiler mix and weigh 84 lbs, but I just really want to be able to hang out with you and be the dog you can’t live without. I do okay with other big dogs, but let’s face it. Those little ones kinda get under foot. I’m almost 4 years old, but I still love to run and play. Hope you do too.

alps

Do you like acronyms? Try this. A-always L-loving P-playful S-Setter. Alps is that and much more.

He is a 1 year old English Setter mix. Beautiful black on white markings and a loving shy nature make for an interesting guy. He weighs about 48 lbs., so he is a good medium size. He should do well with older kids, he still needs to learn his good boy manners.

Other dogs should be fine too.
