‘Eyesore’ bridge to be painted KU blue

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

By summer’s end, the Irving Hill Road bridge over Iowa Street will be bright blue with “Rock Chalk Jayhawk” on one side and “The University of Kansas” on the other. That’s according to a plan announced Tuesday by KU. Previously planned construction is scheduled to begin in May to improve the overpass, which links Daisy Hill and West Campus. In addition to the structural upgrades, the bridge’s girders and new railings will be painted official KU blue, with the lettering added in white. The goal is to turn the “eyesore” of a Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo

City incumbents leading the pack Bill limiting sex-ed materials clears Senate in fundraising

Democrats don’t debate GOP legislation which removes an exemption that public, LEGISLATURE private and parochial schools now enjoy from the crime of promoting material harmful to minors. The bill was a response to a controversy last year when a middle school teacher in the Shawnee Mission school district displayed a poster that listed words, including some explicit words depicting sex acts, to describe various ways in which people show affection. The bill was strongly opposed by many education groups who argued it could drastically limit what material could be taught in classrooms, and some suggested it could even lead to the banning of certain books that are considered classic literature.

Sewer plant bids higher than expected

Building a new sewage treatment plant south of the Wakarusa River may cost more than Lawrence city leaders once envisioned. The massive project attracted only two bidders and costs came in about $5 million above what engineers had estimated, Dave Wagner, the city’s director of utilities, said Tuesday. Base bids came in at about $50 million, compared to the approximately $45 million engineer’s estimate, he said. City officials now will review the bids in more detail to see if there are items that can be cut or whether other adjustments can be made to keep the project on schedule. “We’re going to go through a lot of adding tape in the next few days,” Wagner said. The new plant — which would be on the south side of the Wakarusa River about where O’Connell Road dead ends — is designed to provide the community more sewage treatment capacity to accommodate future growth and also to meet stricter environmental standards be-

ing mandated by regulators. The two bidders on the project were Garney Construction and Crossland Heavy Contractors, Wagner said. City commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting took action on several other items, including: l Commissioners Repealed an ordinance that required some inmates of the Douglas County Jail to pay the city about $70 for each day spent in the jail. That is how much the city is charged by Douglas County for jail inmate costs. The ordinance gave the city’s municipal judge the authority to order inmates to reimburse the city for the jail fees. The ordinance was criticized as being unfair to low-income residents. l Commissioners agreed to have a special meeting at 5:45 p.m. Monday to discuss the findings of an audit that studied the controversial $12 million worth of infrastructure costs at Rock Chalk Park. Commissioners said they did not want to have the item on their regular Tuesday evening agenda because March 2 is the primary election for City Commission races.

see who eventually ends up in the Borders building, but there is an even more interesting question emerging: Will the grass-roots supporters of a downtown grocery store now get behind the idea of a grocery store at 11th and Massachusetts? Some of the group members — led by City Commission candidate David Crawford — have opposed the plan because they thought the Borders site would be a quicker and better solution. The two sites are pretty close to each other — about a minute by car and just a few minutes by foot — so that likely isn’t the issue. Compton’s plans call for the grocery store, which would be run by the Lawrence-based Checkers company, to be the anchor tenant for during the time period. The contributions came from 51 individuals and businesses. Herbert also had raised $3,030 during the previous reporting period, which ran from March 21 to December 31. l Stuart Boley, a retired IRS auditor, raised $3,430 during the time period. The contributions came from 16 individuals, including a $300 contribution from the political action committee of the Plumbers & Pipefitters union. Boley also raised $1,600 during the previous reporting period. l Leslie Soden, the owner of a Lawrence pet sitting company, raised $2,144 during the time period. The contributions came from 17 individuals plus an unitemized number of contributors who gave less than $50 apiece. l Kristie Adair, a Lawrence school board member and co-owner of Wicked Broadband, raised $1,655 from 22 individuals. Adair also raised $5,050 during the previous reporting period. l David Crawford, a retired instructor for the boilermakers union, raised $1,250 during the time period from 19 in-

a seven-story building that would also house offices and apartments. The project also would include a parking garage to serve the development. There is still a big question about whether historic preservationists will object to a sevenstory building being constructed across the street from the historic Douglas County Courthouse and the Watkins Museum of History. The project will have to work through that, and the community will have to decide whether a tall building detracts from the character of an adjacent historic building.

filed, and they do tell a story. There has been speculation that this may be a rough year for incumbents, but thus far that hasn’t been the case in the world of fundraising. Incumbent Bob Schumm is the leader of the pack in the most recent campaign finance reporting period. Terry Riordan, the other incumbent seeking re-election, came in third. In between the two is Stan Rasmussen, who was the leader in the previous reporting period and has raised more than $19,000 since late 2014. These latest reports measure how much candidates have raised from Jan. 1 through Feb. 19. Here’s a look at the entire field: l Schumm, a city commissioner and retired restaurant owner, raised $14,155 during the time period. The contributions came from 87 individuals or companies, including a $500 donation from himself.

l Rasmussen, an attorney for the U.S. Army, raised $10,975 during the time period. The contributions came from 85 individuals or companies, including a $300 donation from the PAC Lawrence United. In case you have forgotten, Lawrence United is the political action committee that became active in City Commission elections two years ago and supports a growth-oriented agenda for the city. During the last election, the PAC — in addition to contributing directly to candidates — did a significant amount of advertising supporting candidates as well. l Riordan, a city commissioner and Lawrence pediatrician, raised $8,665 during the time period. The contributions came from 67 individuals or businesses, including $600 from himself. l Mike Anderson, a local television talk show host, raised $5,430 during the time period. The contributions came from nine individuals, including $2,500 from himself. l Matthew Herbert, a Lawrence High School teacher, raised $3,795

dividuals, including $300 from himself. l Cori Viola, a KU law student, raised $1,217 from nine individuals plus an unitemized number of contributors who gave less than $50 apiece. l Rob Sands, a fulltime officer in the Kansas National Guard, raised $1,035 from three individuals, including $500 from himself. Campaign finance reports from candidates Greg Robinson, Gary Williams and Justin Priest had not yet been received at the County Clerk’s office as of Tuesday. You can see all the reports and the lists of who is contributing money to each candidate at douglas-county.com. As for candidates running for school board, Benjamin Lampe, the deputy of elections for Douglas County, said they do not have to file campaign reports until 30 days after an election and must file only if they raise over $500. No reports were available Tuesday.

Pete Ricketts said he looked forward to working with his Kansas and Colorado counterparts to move forward. Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said the Supreme Court had never before ordered an upstream state to give up part of its economic gains in an interstate water dispute.

Supreme Court sides with Kansas in water dispute Washington (ap) — The Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered Nebraska to pay Kansas $5.5 million in a long-running legal dispute over use of water from the Republican River. The justices also gave Nebraska some of what it asked for and ordered changes to the formula for measuring water consumption. Nebraska argued that the formula was unfair. Justice Elena Kagan, writing the majority opinion, said the court was adopting the recommendations of the independent expert the justices appointed to help resolve the states’ differences. The dispute centers on a 1943 compact allocating 49 percent of the river’s water to Nebraska, 40 percent to Kansas and 11 percent to Colorado. Since 1999, Kansas has complained that Nebraska uses more than its fair share of water from the river, which originates in Colorado and runs mostly through Nebraska before ending in Kansas. “Both remedies safeguard the compact; both insist that states live within its law,� Kagan wrote. Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson’s office said it was pleased with the decision. The $5.5 million award is significantly less than the $80 million that Kansas had sought. “We hope the decision will move the basin states forward and provide con-

“Legally, this is a groundbreaking case that vindicates Kansas’ rights as a downstream state,� Schmidt said in a news release. “We brought this lawsuit to encourage our neighbors to live up to their obligations in future dry periods. I’m hopeful this strong and clear Supreme Court order will have that effect.� Schmidt said the $5.5 million will be used to reimburse his office for the nearly $4.5 million spent in bringing the lawsuit. The remainder will go to the Legislature. The outcome of the legal dispute has been of keen interest to farmers and rural legislators in Kansas. State Rep. Travis Cou-

ture-Lovelady, a Palco Republican, said the payment award is useful but, “we can’t get the water back.� “I know they’ve got their share of challenges, too,� Couture-Lovelady said. “But that’s the only real means of getting water into that part of northern Kansas.� Six justices agreed on how much Nebraska should pay for taking more than its legal share of the river’s water in 2005 and 2006. Five signed off on changing the formula. Justices Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas dissented on both counts, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts regarding the formula.

ture Tuesday as lawmakers once again considered a bill to repeal a 2004 law that allows some undocumented immigrants in Kansas to pay in-state tuition at state colleges and universities. The hearing in the House Education Committee came at the same time that a na-

tional debate over immigration policy was broiling in Congress, where Senate Republicans have demanded repealing President Barack Obama’s executive orders on immigration as a condition for funding the Depart-

LAWRENCE • STATE Senate may debate gun-rights ban Topeka — The Kansas Senate is expected to debate this week a bill to allow residents who are 21 or older to carry concealed guns without a state permit. Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce’s office says the debate should be today or Thursday. Bruce is a Nickerson Republican, and he’s the measure’s leading sponsor. The Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee approved the bill last week. It ends a requirement for people wanting to carry concealed to get a state permit. A permit costs $132.50, and a person must undergo eight hours of training to get one. Gun-rights groups note Kansas has long allowed the open carrying of weapons without a state permit. The bill’s critics say training should be mandated for people carrying concealed weapons.

Man involved in police chase faces multiple charges

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

BRIEFLY Study: 2014 crop values down Wichita — A new government report shows the value of principle Kansas crops plummeted last year to $6.51 billion. The National Agricultural Statistics Service reported Tuesday that the decline compares to $7.85 billion in 2013 and $8.09 billion in 2012. The lesser numbers come as no surprise, given the waning drought last year that decimated the state’s winter wheat crop before late spring and summer rains salvaged fall -harvested crops. Grain prices also have fallen in the past couple of years, making the remaining crop worth less. Among the state’s major crops, the agency valued the state’s wheat crop at $1.51 billion last year. It pegged the value of Kansas corn at $2.12 billion. Soybeans came in at $1.38 billion, with sorghum trailing at $755.2 million.

A man accused of leading Lawrence police on a chase that reached speeds of up to 80 mph through the middle of town Monday was charged Tuesday with attempting Slater to elude officers, driving while his license was suspended and reckless driving. Raymond Alan Slater, 41, of Topeka, is accused of leading officers on the chase after allegedly stealing the red Ford Mustang convertible at gunpoint in Topeka around 11:40 a.m. Monday. The pursuit started about 1:50 p.m. when an off-duty Lawrence police officer said he saw Slater driving

erratically — speeding, squealing his tires and running a red light — near 23rd and Louisiana streets. The officer alerted dispatchers, McKinley said. On-duty officers pursued the vehicle on a route that included 19th Street, Naismith Drive, Iowa Street and 31st Street, where it reached speeds of 80 mph, McKinley said. During the pursuit, the driver dodged “tire deflating devices” officers placed in an attempt to stop him, according to court documents. Police took Slater into custody after about 10 minutes, after the vehicle suddenly stopped on Kasold Drive near Bob Billings Parkway, McKinley said. Two police officers were

injured during the arrest. McKinley described one officer’s injuries as minor and said the other officer was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital with injuries sustained from his hand being slammed in a car door. The officer was released that afternoon and is able to work, McKinley said. Douglas County Judge Pro Tem James George set Slater’s bond at $5,000 because of his “extensive criminal history” dating back to the early 1990s. Slater told the court he was not a flight risk and took responsibility for his actions. “I got caught doing what I got caught doing,” Slater said. “I’m tired of running. I’m getting too old for this.” He will make his next court appearance Feb. 26. If convicted of all charges, he could face up to two years in jail and $1,500 in fines.

Jeff King, R-Independence, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, King said prosecutions could be handled by attorneys within the secretary of state’s office. He noted that a numrequires immigrants to meet the same residency requirements as U.S. citizens, he said the Kansas law complies with the federal law. Kobach filed a federal lawsuit challenging the Kansas law in 2010 while he was running for secretary of state. The suit was eventually dismissed because the court ruled the plaintiffs Kobach had recruited did not have standing to file a claim. Meanwhile, several students and higher education officials testified against the bill. Among them was Carla Rivas-D’Amico, a Venezuelan-American at KU majoring in gender studies and philosophy. “As a Hispanic woman, I am all too familiar of the daily fear and dread that comes from being an undocumented young person,” she said. “While both my family and I are documented, growing up I had many friends and close family acquaintances that were not.” She said children of undocumented immigrants face many challenges getting an education in the U.S. and repealing the instate tuition law would only make their lives harder. Kansas Board of Regents member Fred Logan said the board also oppos-

ber of other state agencies, including the Insurance commissioner’s office, have prosecutorial powers now, even though they are not necessarily led by attorneys. He also noted that Kansas law doesn’t specifically require that the attorney general be an attorney. es passage of the bill. “The children of undocumented persons who are making use of these instate tuition rates are exactly the kinds of students we want in Kansas,” Logan said. “They must be highly motivated to succeed. They’ve gone to our high schools. They’ve gone to school with your children. They are great Kansans.” The education committee only heard testimony on the bill Tuesday. The panel will debate the bill and vote on whether to send it to the full House at a later date.

Mental health drug regulations bill advances in Senate

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Kansas Medicaid officials would have more ability to control the prescription of costly mental health drugs under a bill scheduled for final action in the Senate today. Supporters of the bill say it will give patients more protection from over-prescription of powerful anti-psychotic drugs, many of which have serious side effects. But advocates for mentally ill patients say it could deprive them of needed medication and could result in more of those patients being hospitalized or ending up in jail.

Senate Bill 123 would repeal a law that has been in place since 2002 that specifically prohibits the Kansas Medicaid system from controlling the prescription of those drugs through the use of preferred drug lists, prior authorization requirements or other methods. According to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, in the first 11 months of 2014, the Medicaid program spent $24.6 million buying just one drug, Abilify, which is used to treat symptoms of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. In certain doses, it is also used in combination

with other drugs to treat clinical depression. Sen. Jim Denning, ROverland Park, a health care administrator who serves on the Public Health and Welfare Committee, said the state’s failure to control those pharmaceuticals has endangered patients. He cited a recent “drug utilization review” that identified more than 4,000 children in the Medicaid

program who have been prescribed two or more anti-psychotic drugs within a 60-day period, despite the fact that most of the drugs are not recommended for children. He also said about 45 percent of all nursing home patients in Kansas are receiving antipsychotic medications, one of the highest rates in the nation. But Sen. Laura Kelly,

D-Topeka, said the bill wasn’t being promoted for patient safety. “This bill is all about the money,” Kelly said. She pointed to a fiscal note on the bill that projected it would save the state $16 million a year, including $6.7 million from the general fund, money the administration has already included in its budget projections for next year. “That’s not going to

happen,” Kelly said. She noted that when similar bills were offered during the Sebelius administration, the former agency known as the Kansas Health Policy Authority projected it would save only $800,000 a year. Sen. Mary PilcherCook, who chairs the Public Health and Welfare Committee, denied that the bill was only about saving money. “This is about protecting our children and our senior citizens, making sure they get the quality health care in the Medicaid system that they would in a private health insurance system,” she said.

Uncooperative witnesses push back hearing for man with varied charges

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

The preliminary hearing and arraignment of a Lawrence man charged with various offenses in three separate cases — aggravated assault of an officer, aggravated battery and DUI, eluding police, criminal threat, interference with law enforcement duties and battery of a law enforcement officer — was delayed once again after prosecutors on Tuesday said they had been unable to subpoena three witnesses. Zachary James Ortiz, 24, who was shot by police in June after allegedly leveling a shotgun at an officer who confronted him inside his home, has already had a preliminary hearing in his first case in September and was bound over for trial. On Tuesday, the state planned to present evidence at a preliminary hearing that Ortiz should be bound over for trial on his second case of aggravated battery. Ortiz was arrested on

suspicion of aggravated battery Oct. 21 after an alleged disturbance with weapons involving an ex-girlfriend of Ortiz’s, according to the arrest affidavit. Ortiz The victim told police that Ortiz had strangled her and held a knife to her face, the affidavit said. Prosecutor David Melton has been trying to no avail to find the ex-girlfriend, her daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend to testify at a preliminary hearing for Ortiz’s aggravated battery charge. Last month, the state requested to reschedule the preliminary hearing because two of the witnesses could not appear in court because of “illness” and “travel plans.” Melton noted that it would be rare for the state to be granted a second continuance, but that because of Ortiz’s other pending criminal cases, another extension should not place a harsh burden on the defendant.

Ortiz’s attorney Cooper Overstreet said that because the state is asking for another extension, the aggravated battery charge should be dismissed. District Judge Peggy Kittel ultimately set a new preliminary hearing in the aggravated battery case that was scheduled for March 14. If prosecutors are still not ready to present a preliminary hearing on that date, then the charge with be dismissed, Kittel said. Ortiz was also to be arraigned Tuesday and to make a plea on the charge of aggravated assault of an officer, but it was postponed until March 14 so it could follow the aggravated battery case. Further court proceedings in his third case have not yet been set. Ortiz is out of the Douglas County Jail after paying about $130,000 in bonds since June for his three cases. He is required to wear a patch to detect alcohol consumption.

Student annoyed by classmate with Asperger’s Dear Annie: One of my classmates has Asperger syndrome. He often says and does things that are obnoxious and sometimes downright threatening. I understand that his behavior is a result of his Asperger’s, but it doesn’t make it any easier to deal with. When I ask my friends what to do, they say it’s not his fault and I should just leave it alone. But, Annie, he frequently talks loudly over instructions so no one else can hear, and last week he fell on the floor screaming in front of visiting professionals. I want to be able to help him change his behavior without making it seem as though I’m blaming him for it. How do I respectfully tell him what is and isn’t appropriate? — Worn Out

‘Modern Family’ talks technology Tonight’s episode of “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC) may be the most memorable and talked about event of the month — if not the year. With the exception of the title sequence, the entire episode unfolds on the screen of Claire’s tablet computer. Cooling her heels at the airport, she uses the Apple FaceTime app to video chat with Phil and to ask about the whereabouts of Haley, who has fallen off Claire’s radar after a motherdaughter spat. Claire’s increasingly desperate efforts to contact her eldest daughter drag every other member into the dialogue, all via FaceTime and other video applications. Cleverest of all, we get to see how a distracted Claire does other things while “talking” to members of her family. She glances at the checkout cart of a clothing retailer while pretending to care about Alex’s college essay, checks her Facebook status, email and other applications. Eventually, Claire uses a fake Facebook identity and lostphone-finder technology to further her search efforts, with predictably disastrous results. According to the show’s producers, the entire show was “shot” using these phone and table cameras, something that might send chills down the spines of union camera operators. This fractured narrative opens more product-placement opportunities than one can count. But for all of its innovations, the episode offers a perfectly coherent and funny narrative, completely in keeping with the series’ brand of humor. It thoughtfully offers mixed messages about technology’s ability to both connect and alienate people from each other. Claire uses her tablet and myriad apps to stay in touch with nearly a dozen relatives and in-laws in a 20-minute span. At the same time, we see how family members “lose” each other to screen time, even when they are sitting only feet away from each other. Funny, thought-provoking, innovative and borderline brilliant, this “Modern Family” reflects a clear effort by the show’s team to raise the bar for a mere sitcom.

EDITORIALS

Language challenge Congratulations to Kansas University for continuing to sell the value of foreign language study.

Prof prepared to defy bill’s ban Over the past few weeks, a number of people have asked me what I think of HB 2234, which would bar university and community college employees from using their job titles when writing letters or opinion columns for newspapers. While I doubt that the bill will actually become law, if it were to become law, my current intention is to continue to write my columns for the Journal-World and leave it up to the editors to decide whether to list my university affiliation — as they have always done. That has always been the newspaper’s decision and, so far as I am concerned, will remain their decision. As far as not commenting on activities by the Legislature or the governor, I will continue to speak out on issues that I believe are important whether it puts my continued employment by the state in danger or not. It is obvious that I am willing to refuse to obey HB 2234 if it becomes law in its present state. To my mind, it is a flawed piece of legislation on several counts. First, I find it remarkable that a bill is wending its way through the Legislature when no member of the Legislature is ad hominem attacks against legislators are uncalled for, uncivil, and unwise. On the other hand, I think that it is absolutely appropriate to criticize a particular piece of legislation based on either substantive or procedural grounds. I believe that if a bill is to be introduced into the Legislature, someone should take ownership of it. If no member of the House will do so, then I believe that the bill should be defeated for that reason alone. In addition to my procedural problems with HB 2234, I also believe that it is bad from both a policy and a legal perspective. From a policy perspective, university faculty should speak publicly on matters in which they have expertise or on which they have strong opinions. When Kansas University hires a new professor, that new faculty member is specifically told that public service is a key responsibility. Since the founding of our nation, informed political dialogue has been a critical part of our governmental process. This bill, in my opinion, is an attempt to stifle a selected group of public employees from being part of that dialogue. It is true that the bill would not prevent faculty from writing if they were to suppress their university affiliations, but that a person is a faculty member with particular expertise is an important piece of information that the public should have, just as it is important that people know when a member of the Legislature has an opinion on a specific subject. To single out university faculty members in this bill is unwise and, in my opinion, damaging to political discourse in the state. It is also, I believe, legally problematic as it would seem to violate the First Amendment rights of university faculty. I love Kansas and I love teaching at KU, although I do not love all of the laws that the current Legislature is considering. It is because I love Kansas that I now speak out against HB 2234. It is because I love Kansas and because I love the freedom of speech for which our forefathers fought that I will not be silenced if HB 2234 becomes law even though that may cost me a job that I love.

— Mike Hoeflich, a distinguished professor in the Kansas University School of Law, writes a regular column for the JournalWorld.

K

nowledge of foreign languages and cultures is perhaps more important than ever, and it’s good to see Kansas University officials emphasizing the benefits and opportunities of foreign language study for its students. KU is rightly proud of its foreign language programs, now grouped within a new School of Languages, Literatures and Cultures, which is part of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The 40 languages students can learn at KU surpass the number of languages offered at any other university in the Plains states or the Big 12. It’s disappointing to learn that enrollment in KU’s language programs has declined, but it’s encouraging to know that KU is looking at new ways to attract students to those programs. One key is to show students the practical value of a language degree. More than ever, university students are looking for degrees that will lead to specific job opportunities. Unless students plan to seek a doctorate and teach, many liberal arts degrees don’t fill that bill, but, in our continually shrinking world, knowing a foreign language can open many doors in a variety of fields: business, politics, foreign service, humanitarian agencies and others. KU officials say part of the challenge is to fight the idea that English is such a global language that English-speakers don’t need to learn other languages. Some students also shy away from languages because they don’t see the value of studying international literature. The answer to both of those issues is that learning a language is more than grammar and pronunciation. It offers a window to aspects of a culture that may not be apparent in English translations or through English speakers or interpreters. It’s an aspect of a liberal education that pays dividends not only to people who major in foreign language and use those skills in their jobs every day but also to any college graduate who wants to have a better understanding of the world in which they live and work. At a time when many universities may be accepting a decline in foreign language enrollment, KU officials are doing the right thing by taking up the challenge of showing why the demands of a global society makes the study of other languages more relevant than ever.

Urgent need FOLLOW US Facebook.com/LJWorld Twitter.com/LJWorld To the editor: In a Journal-World article dated Feb. 23, the proposed road projects that the city of Lawrence will undertake during the summer of 2015 were presented. Quite dismaying is the absence of any construction on the stretch of Bob Billings between Kasold and Wakarusa, since, as stated in a Journal-World article by Chad Lawhorn from Aug. 4, “major building projects included in the city’s 2015 budget: $2.2 Million to rebuild Bob Billings Parkway between Kasold and Wakarusa.” That budget item was not to put a traffic light in at Bob Billings and George Williams Way, nor was it to rebuild Bob Billings between Wakarusa and Foxfire Drive (a desperately needed project that has been planned and canceled each of the past 3 years). That budget item was specifically to rebuild a rapidly deteriorating section of road with foundational issues that will handle an anticipated 300 percent traffic increase as soon as November, when the Bob Billings and the South Lawrence Trafficway interchange is completed. Comments from residents along the road shouldn’t be happening this summer; they should be happening now, with construction happening this summer.

Flawed policy To the editor: Daily front-page news articles throughout Kansas paint an increasingly dire picture of the state’s budget. Bipartisan criticism of the governor’s proposal to erase projected shortfalls by June 2017 by diverting $858 million more from transportation funds should be a serious wakeup call for our legislators, but an even more serious concern for the residents (voters) of Kansas who elect those legislators. Elimination of state income taxes for thousands of small businesses is touted as a formula to create more jobs in Kansas and reduce the need for personal income taxes. This is supposed to draw more small employers and jobs to Kansas. But, how many of these small businesses with good-paying jobs are the very ones that supply road and bridge construction la-

bor and materials? Under the current proposal, many could actually be smaller or non-existent before 2017! The result may be negative job growth over the next three years for that significant employment sector because of cuts forced by plundering nearly a billion dollars of highway funds to pay other “more pressing” obligations? “We the people” elect our legislators and governor and expect the best interest of the Kansans to be their priority. Just as in business, political ideas and assumptions that at one time can seem logical, but prove otherwise, must be swiftly addressed rather than allowed to further erode the enterprise. It is time to stop the rhetoric and rethink failing policy. Frederick W. Pawlicki, Lawrence

two-thirds of adults and one-third of children are overweight. It concludes that a dietary pattern higher in plant-based foods and lower in animal-based foods is more health promoting and associated with lesser environmental impact than the current U.S. diet. The 1977 recommendation that Americans eat less meat by the Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs was quashed by the meat industry, and subsequent dietary guidelines panels have been very cautious. The 2010 dietary guidelines panel merely shoved meat and dairy off the official MyPlate icon, representing the U.S. Dietary Guidelines. Though the experts have now told the truth, our family’s health is still up to us.

Obama vetoes Keystone XL Washington (ap) — Defying the Republicanrun Congress, President Barack Obama rejected a bill Tuesday to approve construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline, wielding his veto power for only the third time in his presidency. Obama offered no indication of whether he’ll eventually issue a permit for the pipeline, whose construction has become a flashpoint in the U.S. debate about environmental policy and climate change. Instead, Obama sought to reassert his authority to make the decision himself, rebuffing GOP lawmakers who will control both the House and Senate for the remainder of the president’s term. “The presidential power to veto legislation is one I take seriously,” Obama said. “But I also take seriously my responsibility to the American people.” Obama vetoed the bill in private with no fanfare, in contrast to the televised ceremony Republican leaders staged earlier this month when they signed the bill and sent it to the president. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Republicans were “not even close” to giving up the fight and derided the veto as a “national embarrassment.” The move sends the politically charged issue back to Congress, where Republicans haven’t shown they can muster the two-thirds majority in both chambers needed to override Obama’s veto. Although the veto is Obama’s first since Republicans took control on Capitol Hill, it was not likely to be the last. GOP lawmakers are lining up legislation rolling back Obama’s actions on health care, immigration and financial regulation that Obama has promised to similarly reject. “He’s looking at this as showing he still can be king of the hill, because we don’t have the votes to override,” said Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, a vocal opponent of Obama’s climate change agenda. “If he vetoed this, he’s going to veto many others that are out there.”

bridge into a landmark, KU said in its announcement. “This is one of those unique opportunities, much like the reconstruction of Jayhawk Boulevard, to beautify our campus and create a landmark for the entire KU community while completing a muchneeded upgrade to the campus infrastructure,” Jim Modig, Design and Construction Management director and university architect, said in a statement. Construction plans call for replacing the bridge’s short side railings with taller and more attractive ones, widening the sidewalks, adding concrete barriers to separate pedestrians and cars and adding new lighting and landscaping. Funding for the physi-

cal bridge improvements is coming from KU’s rehab and repair budget, KU spokesman Gavin Young said. He said KU Endowment is seeking donors to pay for landscaping around the bridge and to help defray costs of the painting and lettering. Construction is set to start May 18 and be finished by the end of July. The university had hoped to complete the bridge project last summer but put it off to avoid creating more construction detours on Iowa Street at the time, Young said. He said KU also considered starting the project this spring, but leaving one lane of traffic open at a time would have been more costly than closing it, which the university will be able to do in the summer months. The bridge is used heavily by KU on Wheels buses, though pedestrians also use it to cross over

Iowa Street. Foot traffic increased this year, as construction of two new residence halls on Daisy Hill shifted a sizable portion of student parking across Iowa Street to the Lied Center, Modig said. “We heard from students who felt uncomfortable with the current bridge sidewalks and railings,” he said. Planned improvements would not affect the height of the bridge’s clearance over Iowa Street. The Irving Hill overpass was the location of a 2006 accident that killed one man and critically injured another who were standing on the upper deck of the Cat Tracker, a K-State fan bus. The men struck their heads on the underside of the bridge when the modified school bus passed beneath it.

Jayhawks’ problems not too difficult to explain

Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo

KANSAS STATE FANS STORM THE COURT following the Wildcats’ 70-63 victory over Kansas on Monday night in Manhattan.

Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self was pinned against the Bramlage Coliseum scorer’s table by a mob of Kansas State students, opposing coach Bruce Weber shoving folks out of the way to help his counterpart to safety. Jayhawk junior forward Jamari Traylor was charged into — and knocked several steps to his left — by a KSU fan under the south goal. In addition, KU junior forward Perry Ellis was allegedly taunted and flashed an obscene gesture by an-

other Wildcat supporter as thousands of fans stormed the court following KSU’s 70-63 win over KU on Monday night. That particular fan was shoved and flung away from the KU bench by assistant coach Kurtis Townsend. “It’s been a bad day for Kansas State ... I’m not going to be one to pile on,” KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger said Tuesday on the Jayhawk Sports Weekly radio show, his word the last during a day in which KSU AD John Currie apologized to Jayhawk nation in Please see HOOPS, page 4B

The tendency when it comes to basketball, more than most sports it seems, is to search for psychological reasons for a player’s slump, an underdog’s upset, even a team leading a race and falling back to the pack. Sometimes the answer does not dance in the mysterious realm of intangibles. Sometimes it’s standing right there in the center of the room. Has it ever occurred to anybody that maybe, just maybe, this Kansas University basketball team doesn’t have enough talent to win the Big 12 title? By that I don’t mean talented potential. I mean players good enough to compete well in the Big 12 right now. KU doesn’t have a defender equipped to keep quick point guards, of which there are so many in the Big 12, from getting to the paint. And those quick guards don’t hesitate heading there because unlike in most years, a shot-blocker isn’t standing there waiting for them. Even a non-shot blocker in the mold of Sasha Kaun, leaning on guys, defending them before they catch the ball, would change this team in such a big way. Kansas doesn’t have that player and Cliff Alexander doesn’t appear nearly developed enough to become that guy any time soon. Might a lineup with Perry Ellis at center, Frank Mason at point and wings Brannen Greene, Kelly Oubre and Wayne Selden be the the way to go against some lineups?

LAWRENCE HIGH’S E’LEASE STAFFORD (15) and Shawnee Mission East’s Emma Linscott battle for possession of the basketball Tuesday night in Prairie Village.

Lawrence High girls cruise past SM East

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Prairie Village — The first quarter has not been friendly to Lawrence High’s girls basketball team this season. That changed on Tuesday against Shawnee Mission East. The Lions stormed out to a big lead, drilling shots and forcing turnovers on defense. After that, they cruised to a 52-40 road victory. It’s the first time the Lions have won three straight games since the 2010-11 season. SM East scored the first two points, and the Lions answered with the next 16. Senior point guard Marissa Pope scored six points, driving through the lane and picking up fouls to go to the free throw line. In the final 90 seconds of the first quarter, freshman guard E’lease Stafford hit two three-pointers, including a buzzer-beater, and sophomore guard Skylar Drum added a layupand-the-foul score for an eventual 19-4 advantage. “We’re coming together,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said. “We’re starting to understand what it takes to compete at this level and how you’ve got to be focused and ready to play every time out. It’s taken awhile for us to get there but it’s starting to happen and I think they’re understanding that part of it. It’s a heck of lot more fun to play that way.” Last month, the Lions were outscored in the first quarter in five of their seven games, including a few by more than 14 points. On Tuesday, Lawrence

(6-13, 3-7 in the Sunflower League) played aggressive defense in the first quarter, forcing six turnovers and seven straight missed shots by SM East. “I think we just came out ready to play and we were all focused,” Pope said. “We all wanted it from the start.” LHS jumped to a 22-point lead midway through the third quarter with a 10-4 run to open the second half. Junior forward Alexis Boyd scored six points in the spurt, Pope had a layup and senior forward Matia Finley hit a turnaround shot. The Lancers (1-18, 1-9) went on a run of their own, 10-1, to close within 13 at the end of the third quarter. But the Lions never let them get any closer until their lead dipped to 12 in the final minute of the fourth quarter. Stafford scored five straight points for the Lions to start the fourth quarter and Finley scored on a layup-and-the-foul. “We just kept our heads, really,” Finley said. “We just tried to stay calm. We had a big enough lead where we didn’t have to stress about it.”

Overland Park — Sometimes scoring is contagious. One guy on a basketball team gets hot, and the others follow suit. Free State High experienced a little of that Tuesday night at Shawnee Mission West. But the Firebirds’ passing turned out just as infectious, as crisp ball movement and open shots helped FSHS coast to a 55-40 victory. Junior Hunter Gudde and senior Weston Hack set the tone for Free State’s five-guard lineup, facilitating both open jumpers and layups for their teammates as the visitors raced out to a 15-3 lead in the first quarter. In the first minute, Hack found senior Jack Raney inside. Soon after, Gudde spotted seniors Justin Narcomey, Andrew Keating and Raney for three-pointers. Then Hack cut to the hoop and scored a lay-in off Gudde’s fourth assist, which put the Firebirds ahead 13-0. The first quarter concluded with sophomore Jacob Pavlyak scoring a layup off a dish from Hack. FSHS (11-8) came out blazing, and Gudde, who finished with 15 points and seven assists, said that stretch made all the difference. “It just carried on the rest of the game,” the 6-foot-2 junior said, “built up our confidence and we just kept playing just like that and came out with the win.” Hack, who had 12 points, six assists and

He knows where everybody is gonna be at any time in the game.” But Gudde’s ability to move the ball has developed this season, too, even if he hasn’t quite caught up with Hack. Free State held SMW to 9-for-28 shooting in the first three quarters, leading to a 21-point advantage entering the fourth. The Vikings missed their first seven field-goal attempts of the game in the midst of the Firebirds’ passing and shooting clinic. “The best part of that,” Law said of the remarkable start, “was sometimes you get out to big leads like that and they quickly dissipate, because you get comfortable and the other team gets it right back.”

straight baskets in a span of 1:02 midway through the fourth quarter to give Free State (15-4, No. 9 in Class 6A) a four-point lead at No. 8 SM West, the Vikings — led by senior Morgan Mauck’s 25-point night — took a 52-51 lead with 1:42 to play when sophomore post Kenzie Loe (17 points) scored inside. Piper, who finished with 25 points and eight rebounds, missed a putback on the offensive glass on the ensuing possession. But she would get another chance. FSHS still trailed by a point, and Piper drained a difficult fade-away jump-

er on the right baseline with 23 seconds remaining. “I knew we needed a shot,” the smiling sophomore said afterward. “I think that adrenaline just hit me, and I don’t usually practice that shot. I had a nice follow-through, and I knew it was going to go in.” Her coach, Bryan Duncan, couldn’t take credit for the go-ahead basket. “I’d like to say that’s something we drew up,” he said. “That’s just Madison being Madison.” After SMW senior Paige Henderson missed a three-pointer, Piper snagged the defensive rebound, and went to the foul line with 7.5 seconds left for a one-and-one. She stepped to the line with confidence and buried them both.

“I wanted to win this game so bad. I knew I needed to calm myself. I kind of held my breath that first free throw,” Piper said. “Then I kind of relaxed.” Earlier in the game, Piper’s teammates helped pick up the slack and keep Free State in the game when her shots weren’t falling. Freshman Cameryn Thomas and seniors Sarah Coversup and Adriana Jadlow all made a field goal apiece in the first quarter. In the third, when Piper shot 0-for-5, Coversup and fellow senior Hannah Shoemaker scored four points apiece. But neither Coversup (14 points, six rebounds) nor Shoemaker was available for the stretch run, as both fouled out in the final four minutes of the game.

Duncan, who had to play some lineups he described as “interesting” because of the foul issues, said all the Firebirds made winning plays in the face of adversity. And, ultimately, they realized what to do with the game on the line. “The kids were smart enough to know where the ball should go,” Duncan said.

Justin Roberts and senior guard John Barbee began clapping their hands. They were fired up to play defense, and the second-ranked Lions (18-1) responded with a 15-6 run over the next five minutes to take a 39-36 lead. Bonner scored seven points in the stretch, slashing past defenders to the rim and knocking down a three-pointer. Roberts scored his first points of the contest with a layup-and-thefoul bucket, and junior forward Price Morgan added five straight points. “I would say, for me personally, it was almost the most aggressive, hyped-up game we’ve been in because we were just having some bad calls,” Morgan said. “We weren’t going to lose tonight. Guys really stepped up, got mentally tough and we did what we had to do.” In the fourth quarter, the Lions led by two points with 2:47 remaining after SM East junior

Jay Cuastello and junior Ryan Dornbusch knocked down threepointers on back-toback possessions. But the Lions tightened up defensively, which led to points on offense. Senior guard John Barbee scored on a fast-break layup, catching a fullcourt pass from Morgan. Then Bonner grabbed a steal and went coast-tocoast for a layup to help LHS pull away. “We just needed a couple of good things to happen to just fuel us at the defensive end,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said. “We’re better on offense once the defense gets going. We just didn’t have much momentum. It was a little choppy in that first half.”

Rose again injures knee, will need surgery Chicago (ap) — The hand-wringing over and scrutiny of Derrick Rose’s up-and-down play as he attempted his second comeback from season-ending knee surgery defined this Bulls’ season. Now, almost unbelievably, a new chapter has been written — and it could be a career-ending or at least career-defining one. The Bulls announced late Tuesday that an MRI exam confirmed a medial meniscus tear of Rose’s right knee, which will require surgery. Though the team said a timeline for his return will be determined, it’s almost certain Rose will miss the remainder of this season and whatever playoff run the Bulls are able to muster after yet another gut punch to their franchise centerpiece. This is the same medial meniscus Rose tore in November 2013 in Portland, Ore., ending his first comeback. Rose also tore his left ACL in April 2012. Rose, who missed Tuesday’s light workout at the Advocate Center after complaining of right knee soreness, had played in 19 straight games and 30 of 31. This stretch of health had seemingly put questions about his

surgically-repaired knees behind him and the organization Now, that’s all the Bulls face.

Big Ten discusses freshman eligibility Chicago (ap) — Roll your eyes if you must. The Big Ten seems serious about creating a national conversation regarding a “year of readiness” — code for making freshman ineligible, as they were until 1972. Big Ten athletic directors, faculty reps and some student-athletes discussed the issue on Monday and Tuesday at conference headquarters in Rosemont, Ill. “The Big Ten is not asking that this be a new policy,” Northwestern athletic director Jim Phillips said by telephone. “This is a call to have a conversation about a year of readiness — and student-athlete time demands and (the length of) playing seasons and practice seasons. And initial eligibility requirements.” Phillips said the athletic directors now will discuss those issues with their presidents and chancellors. NCAA legislation would pass only if every conference is on board. Also up for debate — the graduate-student of the way, the KU aide asked the Journal-World to speak with associate AD Jim Marchiony about the matter, saying only that he was trying to protect KU’s players. “Kurtis was appropriately attempting to protect KU players from a fan who appeared to be approaching several of our players,” Marchiony told the J-W. “The safety of our players was our No. 1 concern last night. And one fan had already deliberately bodychecked Jamari Traylor. Kudos to our players for keeping their cool.” Marchiony was asked about Townsend allegedly putting “a headlock” on the student. “Calling it a headlock is a real stretch considering he had his hand on the fan for all of about two seconds,” Marchiony said. Meanwhile, Self on his Hawk Talk radio show repeated many of the sentiments that he shared with the media after Monday’s game. “Obviously there were actions taken by some rambunctious students or whoever they were that could have escalated into something much worse, but in no way is that a reflection of their basketball team and their performance last night. ... Whatever way it is handled, there should be some safety precautions taken to make sure the players are safe. For whatever reason, that slipped through the cracks last night,” Self said. “I think the story is that there’s got to be something in place from a security standpoint or game-day-managementtype standpoint to make sure that the players from the opposing teams aren’t stormed. You shouldn’t do it (storm) at their playtransfer rule that has turned fifth-year students into quasi-free agents. And the fact that more than 450 Division I football players enrolled early so they could participate in spring practice. Asked if he seriously could picture freshmen ineligibility, Phillips replied: “I think everything is on the table. … It’s time for a recalibration and recorrection of where we’re going in college athletics.” As Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany put it Sunday on BTN: “We’re ers or at their bench. That was a situation last night that could have obviously gone really south,” added Self, thankful nobody was hurt. Self credited KSU coach Weber for trying to help Self get away from the scorer’s table, where Self was stuck for a few moments. “Bruce actually did a nice job trying to keep people off us,” Self said. “There’s no problem there. Looking back in hindsight, I usually in situations like that would call time out, just tell everybody to come stand by the bench (as final seconds on clock expired). “There were seven seconds left. I told our players on the bench to make sure they just stay here and just exit. They did a good job with that. There were a couple players on our bench area that actually had some fans come to them. Jamari (Traylor) got hit. Everybody’s seen it (on video). He got hit, but it didn’t hurt him. “Mari’s got a temper. I thought he handled it perfectly,” Self added. “We were down from losing the game. We weren’t trying to do anything else. “I thought our players handled it well. K-State ... I know they were apologetic. I did not see Bruce after the game. I know he made an attempt to come and make sure everything was OK, which is what he should do. And it was classy to do that. It shouldn’t take away from the game, although it has in some people’s mind. In my mind, that’s over. I’m more concerned how do we play better?” As for statements made during the day, the student who ran into Traylor identified himself as Nathan Power and wrote in the Collegian newspa-

a lengthy statement, the Big 12 indicated it was looking into the matter and KSU police asked fans for help in identifying the student who hit Traylor (mission accomplished as by the end of Tuesday the repentant student wrote a letter of apology to KSU’s student newspaper). “Our top priority is the security and safety of our coaches and our student-athletes. Last night that was at risk. We believe that’s being addressed,” added Zenger, who said he spent “most of the day on the phone with Big 12 officials and the Kansas State administration and feel satisfied that this time next year this shouldn’t be a concern.” Zenger said there would be further conversations between the schools and with the Big 12 “between now and next year.” “For me, it’s about the University of Kansas. It’s about our studentathletes and coaches. That basketball team is our pride and joy. I have to stop short before I would get too dramatic or intense. We deserve, every team deserves and expects a certain kind of treatment when you are on the road. We feel we provide that. We ask that of others. You never know what can happen in your own house, your turf (but) we take great pride in Allen Fieldhouse, our students, our fans, the way they comport themselves.” As far as Townsend being shown on tape flinging a KSU student out

Girl Scout Cookie Pies and Parfait

John Young/Journal-World Photo

W

Take Girl Scout cookies to the next level The Flying Fork the amazing Tagalong, now known as the Peanut Butter Patty. I happened to have a box of those as well, so I decided to work them into the mix because nothing goes better with peanut butter than chocolate. and bake for about 10 minutes until the crust gets more solid and starts to brown just a tiny bit.

e all love Girl Scout cookies, right? So this is a wonderful time of year when sweet shining faces appear at our doors with boxes of goodness wrapped in community love. I have some friends who work for the Girl Scouts, and they had the great idea to use some cookies in a recipe, rather than sitting down and eating the entire box in one sitting, which is my usual game plan. I decided their plan had merit, and went to work creating a dessert worthy of the cookies. Historically, my favorite cookies were called Do Si Do’s, but they’re now called Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies, which I guess is a lot more descriptive. Anyway, I had three boxes of these beauties and knew I’d start with them.

Megan Stuke Graham cracker crusts are easy and virtually fool-proof, and Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies will make a crumbly crust just like graham crackers, and so an idea was born. I considered my options and couldn’t decide between pie and parfaits, so I made both. Same ingredients, different application. Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies are not the only peanut butter cookie the Girl Scouts sell. There is also

Girl Scout Cookie Pie and Parfait For the crust 2 sleeves of Peanut Butter Sandwich cookies 4 tablespoons melted butter Run the cookies through the food processor until they’re well-pulverized into a sandy texture. Then add the butter and pulse a few times to combine until the mixture clumps together. Preheat your oven to 350 F. I used individual tartlet pans but this recipe will make an 8-inch pie and then some. Press into the bottom of the pie pan(s)

For the filling 1 8-ounce package of cream cheese 1/2 cup peanut butter 2 cups confectioner’s sugar 5 Peanut Butter Patties, broken into pieces 1 cup maple whipped cream (recipe below) In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, peanut butter and confectioner’s sugar, and mix on medium speed to combine thoroughly. Fold in the whipped cream and cookie pieces. Set aside. For the maple whipped cream 1/8 teaspoon maple flavoring (extract) 1 pint whipping cream Whip on medium speed until soft peaks form.

For pies or tarts, let the crust cool and then load in the filling. Top with extra Peanut Butter Patties, a little of the graham cracker mixture, peanuts and a dollop of maple whipped cream. For parfaits, there is no need to heat the oven. Just load some of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of the glass, and layer in filling, cookies, peanuts and finish with a little of everything on top. These certainly dress up the peanut butter cookies, though they really need no added glory; they are marvelous on their own. But since this is easy to make and requires little to no baking, it is fun to assemble with children and is a real hit with grownups and kids alike.

Add some zest to winter with preserved lemons Cooking From Scratch

an I safely assume that everyone is done enjoying winter by now? I’m good with snow and bitter cold until about Valentine’s Day, but after that the cabin fever starts to set in. The view outside my window is gray (again) and everything seems “blah,” even cooking. This can only mean one thing: It’s time to make a big jar of preserved lemons. Preserved, or pickled, lemons are a popular condiment in Moroccan cuisine. Lemons are packed in salt and their own juices and left to marinate for a month or more. The resulting lemons are intensely flavored and will keep almost indefinitely. With citrus in season, this is a good time of year to make a jar of preserved lemons for yourself. With a half-dozen lemons and a jar of salt, you’ll be well on your way to defeating the winter blahs. Just one important note: Since you’ll eventu-

Meryl Carver-Allmond ally be eating the lemon rind, this is one instance where it’s probably better to use organic lemons if you can. For a real treat, you can also spring for mellow-flavored Meyer lemons. You won’t be sorry! But what do you use preserved lemons for? Everything! A tablespoon of the diced rind will sunshine up any dish. I stir them into risotto. I scatter them over roasted chickpeas. I toss them in vinaigrette for salad or with wilted greens like kale and chard. Preserved lemons are truly the secret ingredient of late winter cooking.

Meryl Carver-Allmond/Special to the Journal-World

LEMONS PACKED IN SALT AND THEIR OWN JUICES and left to marinate for a month or more are intensely flavored and will keep almost indefinitely.

Preserved Lemons What you’ll need About 6 organic lemons About 2 cups salt 2 bottles lemon juice 1 gallon glass jar (or similar sized container with lid)

Directions Sprinkle a few tablespoons of salt into the bottom of the glass jar. Quarter the first lemon, without cutting all the way through — i.e., you should have four lemon quarters that are still attached together at the

base of the lemon. Pack the inside of the lemon with another tablespoon or two of salt, then smush it into the bottom of the glass jar. Sprinkle another tablespoon of salt on top. Repeat this process for the remaining lemons. When all the lemons

are in the jar, sprinkle on a tablespoon or two more of salt and give them one last good press from the top. By now, the lemons should be giving up some of their juices to make a brine, but, unless you have extremely juicy lemons, you’ll need to add bottled lemon juice to completely submerge the fruit. Put the lid on the glass jar and give it a good shake to help dissolve the salt. Then pop the jar in the fridge. You’ll need to continue to shake it every few days. The lemons will be best if you can leave them for at least a month, but they’re not bad even after a few weeks. To use, fish out one quarter of a lemon, discard the pulp and rinse the rind under cold water for about 30 seconds. Dice the rind up finely and toss it into anything and everything that needs a sunny flavor boost.

Vitamin D Benefits Pregnant Women and Their Fetuses An analysis of 31 studies has found that low levels of vitamin D lead to several serious complications of pregnancy. Conversely, women with healthy blood levels of the vitamin have a relatively low risk of those complications. Doreen M. Rabi, MD, and her colleagues at the University of Calgary, Canada, determined that women with low levels of the vitamin were about 50 percent more likely to develop gestational diabetes and about 80 percent more likely to develop preeclampsia. A mother’s low vitamin D levels during pregnancy were also associated with an 85 percent greater risk of infants who were small for their gestational age. In addition, mothersto-be had greater odds of developing bacterial vaginosis and delivering low birth weight infants.

Supplements Benefit Hospitalized Patients While Also Reducing Costs A comprehensive statistical analysis has found that patients who received oral nutritional supplements had shorter hospital stays and did better in other ways, compared with patients who did not receive supplements. Tomas J. Philipson, PhD, of the University of Chicago and his colleagues analyzed 44 million adult hospitalizations at 460 medical centers from 2000 to 2010. The information was drawn from the Premier Perspectives Database. “Malnutrition is a serious and underappreciated problem among hospitalized patients. Malnourished patients face heightened risk of poor outcomes, including increased length of stay, healthcare costs, complication rates, readmission rates, and mortality,” wrote Philipson and his colleagues.

Only 1.6 percent of hospitalized patients took oral nutritional supplements, either on their own or provided by the medical centers. The supplements included either macronutrients (e.g., protein, carbs, or fats) or micronutrients (e.g., vitamins and minerals), but the study provided no further details. People taking supplements had hospital stays lasting an average of 2.3 days less than those who did not take supplements. This change resulted in an average $4,754 savings for each hospitalization. Patients taking supplements were also 6.7 percent less likely to be readmitted to the hospital within 30 days. “By increasing oral nutrition supplement use, hospitals can improve hospitalization outcomes and decrease healthcare spending,” wrote the researchers.

County’s housing growth continues

By Caroline BOYER | cboyer@theworldco.info Western Wyandotte County is becoming more than just the place to be — it’s the place to live. In the last two years, the retail, entertainment and other commercial growth in the Village West area has brought new apartment complexes that are filling almost as soon as construction is complete. “We’re really excited about what’s happening there,” said Greg Kindle, president of the Wyandotte County Economic Development Council. “It’s a very hip location to be — there’s always something to do, something to see and something to be a part of. So that, I think, is really driving a lot of the opportunity there.” The Village West Luxury Apartments, 110th Street and Delaware Parkway, broke ground on its first 305unit phase in early 2013, and with vacancy rates almost nonexistent on the first phase once it was completed, developers Northpointe announced it would begin construction of a second, $34 million, 310-unit phase in March 2014. The rapid infill of this complex, along with the 228unit Delaware Ridge complex at State Avenue and 130th Street, inspired Triple R Properties LLC to propose a $64 million development at 118th Street and State Avenue in Bonner Springs. “There are unbelievably low vacancy rates (in Village West-area complexes),” Korb Maxwell, legal representative for Triple R, told the Bonner Springs City Council last month when they considered a resolution of support for the Triple R development proposal. “Actually, what’s somewhat happening at the moment is some of the Delaware Ridge is showing a little bit of vacancy, but it’s not because people are leaving the area. It’s because they’re going to the Northpointe, newest, nicest product, so they’re back-filling Delaware Ridge.” The mixed-use development is proposed to include 35 acres of up to 55 villas, 21 acres for apartments with up to 396 units, and 17 acres for about 85,000 square feet of commercial development. More multi-family could still be in the works. A 248unit, gated apartment complex in Bonner Springs was proposed to begin construction last year near Kansas Highway 7 and Kansas Avenue, though it has been delayed. There even may be some movement on the muchdelayed, 592-unit complex first approved in 2007 in Edwardsville; Michael Webb, city manager, said the city received some contact from the developers in January. It’s not just multi-family housing that has seen a boost; 181 single-family building permits were issued in the county last year. With eight consecutive years of population growth, the county is reversing the trend of residents moving

to other areas that began 25 years ago. Kindle said the county’s overall population is getting back to census levels in the 1990s. To keep that moving forward, the Unified Government is continuing new residential construction incentives within Kansas City, Kan., allowing permit fee reductions and waivers that could reduce new construction costs by about $5,000 per home. “We’re going to continue to push to make sure that all the subdivisions that started just before the recession are finished,” Kindle said.

U.S. SOCCER NATIONAL TRAINING COMPLEX TO BEGIN CONSTRUCTION BY SUMMER

By Nico ROESLER | nroesler@theworldco.info The construction of the new U.S. Soccer National Training Center complex in Kansas City, Kan., is scheduled to begin in late spring or early summer, and the area expects a lot of benefits from the development. The complex will be on 40 acres southeast of Parallel Parkway and 98th Street, donated by owners of the adjacent Schlitterbahn Water Park, and on an additional 127 acres northeast of 94th Street and State Avenue. The developers and Unified Government will begin marketing STAR Bonds in the next month and the district could generate an estimated $295.5 million worth of sales tax revenue bond financing, according to Unified Government figures. STAR bonds are a Kansas economic development tool first used for the Kansas Speedway project in Village West in 1998 and they provide up-front cash for tourism-related developments and are repaid with sales tax revenue generated by the projects. While construction at the site hasn’t started, a lot of work has been done since the announcement on the complex last summer. Chase Simmons, outside counsel for the project with the Polsinelli Law Firm, said engineers and site planners have been working to get from concept designs to final layouts and cost estimates. “We’ve made some great progress,” Simmons said. The $75 million-plus soccer village will provide a state-of-the-art environment to develop players, coaches and referees of all ages. The facility proposed will include approximately 100,000 square feet for an indoor facility with a practice field, eight lighted professional smart fields and eight youth fields. Additional features will include a climate-controlled indoor pavilion and specialized facilities tailored toward strength and nutrition, hydration, sports science, health and wellness, video and analytics. The complex is projected to house the National Training and Coaching Development Center, an athlete training and performance analytics campus and national youth soccer development programs. The complex will also feature a 125-room full-service hotel . It will also house a variety of U.S. national team training camps and will potentially bring opportunities for Sporting Park to host matches for the men’s and women’s national teams at the youth and senior levels. The U.S. Soccer National Training Center is currently located in Carson, Calif., in the StubHub Center complex. The announcement made last summer that the complex would be built in Kansas City, Kan., was made by Sporting Club CEO Robb Heineman along with Gov. Sam Brownback and representative from the local Unified Government. “This is a great opportunity for us to continue to grow soccer in Kansas City and further establish being the soccer capital of America,” Heineman said in a statement last summer. “To us, this is equivalent to bringing another sports franchise here, with the ultimate goal of

helping the United States win the World Cup through youth soccer development, coaching training, advanced sports science and world-class facilities.” The development is expected to have an economic impact exceeding $1 billion on the state of Kansas over 30 years, according to figures from the Unified Government. The construction of the complez is expected to create more than 244 full-time-equivalent jobs while the annual operations of the facilities is expected to create 529 jobs.

Wyandotte Plaza project near completion

By Rochelle VALVERDE | Twitter: @RochelleVerde Lifelong Wyandotte County resident Loraine Waldeck was born the same year the Wyandotte Plaza shopping center at 78th Street and State Avenue debuted in 1961, and said that when she was a girl, it was the place to be. But over her lifetime, the area has seen years of neglect and decline. Until a recent redevelopment project, Wyandotte Plaza hadn’t seen major refurbishment for decades. The last pieces of the approximately $30 million project are set for completion by late spring. Waldeck is the owner of MeMa’s Bakery and Kitchen, which relocated from The Legends to Wyandotte Plaza nine months ago. For Waldeck, who grew up and still lives nearby, she said it was the right choice. “When we opened our doors here the first day, I got flowers and cards and they all said the same thing: ‘Welcome home’,” Waldeck said. Including a Price Chopper, Wyandotte Plaza has 210,000 square feet of retail space — the equivalent of nearly four football fields — that is about 85 percent leased, said Dave Claflin, spokesman for Red Legacy, the developers of the shopping center. The project has filled a major trade gap in the city’s interior, Claflin said. “The renovation has transformed a declining asset into a vibrant retail center and has brought national stores and restaurants to the area,” he said. The majority of the redevelopment of Wyandotte Plaza is already finished. Awaiting completion is a building set to house a Marshalls and PetSmart, both set to open by May, Claflin said. Krispy Kreme will open Feb. 24 and CommunityAmerica Credit Union has signed a lease, but an opening date following a remodeling is not yet set, Claflin said. Now in a larger space at Wyandotte Plaza, MeMa’s—which signature products are apple strudel, povitica bread and cinnamon rolls—is able to offer a new breakfast and lunch menu and expand the wholesale of its bakery items, Waldeck said. The redevelopment is complemented by major infrastructure improvements that together have rehabilitated the area, said Edwin Birch, the Unified Government of Wyandotte County’s public information officer. “The street improvements along with the redevelopment of Wyandotte Plaza has revitalized an older section of the city that hadn’t received this level of improvements in more than three decades,” Birch said. Waldeck said Wyandotte Plaza as a whole had needed a lot of work, and the drastic improvements were what the community needed. “It’s very nice to see the resurgence. I think it’s lifted everybody’s spirits in this area. It’s something we can be proud of,” she said. The infrastructure improvements to the area included street resurfacing, new sidewalks, medians and curbs, along with lighting and decorative landscaping from 73rd Street to 94th Street and State Avenue, Birch said. By providing a place nearby for residents to shop, Birch said he hopes the Wyandotte Plaza redevelopment will bring even more businesses to the area. “For the residents, they have some places to shop and do some things right in their neighborhood. So we hope this will spark future development,” Birch said.

Tech education center sees increase in enrollment

By Rochelle VALVERDE | Twitter: @RochelleVerde Since opening a new complex a year and a half ago, the Dr. Thomas R. Burke Technical Education Center at Kansas City Kansas Community College has seen a 28 percent increase in enrollment, said Leota Marks, dean of academic workforce programs. Skilled labor shortages are growing and TEC students can fill those positions, Marks said. “The success of our students supports the economic development and well-being of the community and businesses as well,” she said. And new this academic year, some programs began offering evening classes, Marks said. Currently, about a third of the 23 programs offer the option of evening classes, including auto collision repair, electrical technology and welding technology. The Medical Assistant Program is set to start evening classes in fall 2015 and the center is also considering offering evening options for the Cosmetology Program. Since the opening of the stateof-the-art, 130,000-square-foot complex in August 2013, the center has added two additional technical programs: audio engineering and physical therapy assistant, Marks said. The TEC offers a wide range of programs, including computer repair, automotive hybrid and electric vehicle, culinary arts, and multimedia and video production. KCKCC student Andrea Allen didn’t have a problem getting a job after she finished the cosmetology program at the TEC last July. After she received her license, Allen said she got a job a hair salon straight away. Allen is now using her job at the salon to support herself while she studies nursing at the KCKCC main campus. Once she graduates, she said she would like to work in home health and continue to use her cosmetology skills to provide additional care to her patients. Marks said vocational and technical skills are in high demand and some students have multiple job offers when they finish. “As the baby boomers retire and public education system has eliminated many shop classes over the past 25 years, the skilled labor shortages are immense,” she said.

Hotel process hitting home stretch Lodging at Hollywood Casino awaiting final approvals

By Shawn F. LINENBERGER | slinenberger@theworldco.info The landscape of the Interstate 70 corridor near Kansas Speedway and Hollywood Casino is expected to change. Plans for a 248-room hotel near the casino moved one step further with a planning commission recommendation earlier this month. Kansas Entertainment LLC, a joint venture of Penn Hollywood Kansas and Kansas Speedway Development Corporation, is in charge of the proposed project. Jeff Boerger, president of KSDC, said an estimated timeline for building and completion, as well as a price tag for the hotel, is premature because of additional approvals needed. The Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., and the Kansas Entertainment board have more details to finalize. Whatever the final plan, Boerger said there are expectations that come with the project. “It will be the same type of quality as the casino,” Boerger said. “Obviously it’s something that we want the community and everyone to be proud of.” There were previous discussions about building a convention center as part of the hotel addition, but officials moved toward focusing on a hotel that offers some meeting space. Greg Kindle with the Wyandotte County Economic Development Council said it was determined a convention center wouldn’t bring in new business. The hotel, though, would be a good addition to the area, Kindle said. “It keeps the community moving forward and keeps moving forward in development,” he said. A Residence Inn is going up just west of Yard House in The Legends shopping district, while at least another is anticipated with the U.S. Soccer National Training Center. The more than $75 million complex, planned for the southeast corner of 98th Street and Parallel Parkway, will feature an indoor complex. The Hollywood Casino hotel would add to that latest wave of development. Boerger said plans are for the hotel to be constructed west of the casino, which is southeast of Kansas Speedway. Boerger added that the speedway has additional land — about 1,000 acres — east of the speedway. He said officials are looking to utilize about 300 acres for additions ranging from office space to mixed-use developments. He said potential businesses for that area would be ones that partner with Kansas Speedway’s core business of racing. In the meantime, the focus is on moving forward with hotel preparations. “I think it’s progressed as it should,” Kindle said about the plans for a hotel and looking at the possibility of a convention center. He said anytime someone is looking at potential plans of that magnitude and “this type of investment,” it’s important to have such a process. Boerger noted Kansas Speedway and Hollywood Casino have provided hundreds of jobs. Adding a hotel to the mix would continue the job creation and benefit the area, according to Boerger. “I think just an overall perspective is it’s been tremendous, not only for the community, Kansas City, Kan., and Wyandotte County, but the state,” Boerger said.

Slide is ‘terrifying, but great’ says KCK mayor

By Melissa TREOLO | mtreolo@theworldco.info When Schlitterbahn opens in May for its 2015 season, one of the water park’s biggest attractions will undoubtedly be the Verruckt waterslide. At 17 stories high, the tallest waterslide in the world has put Kansas City, Kan., on the map. “It’s certainly been a big draw for people to come out,” said KCK Mayor and roller coaster enthusiast Mark Holland, who took a ride on the Verruckt himself the day it opened last summer. “It’s great. How many opportunities do you have to ride the tallest waterslide in the world? And it’s right here in our backyard. So it’s pretty exciting.” Designed by Schlitterbahn co-owner Jeff Henry, the Verruckt opened, albeit after several delays, in July 2014. Due to such high demand, reservations are required to ride the Verruckt, a name that means “insane” in German. After climbing 264 steps to the top of the ride and being strapped in by safety belts to a three-person raft, the insanity ensues with a nose-dive down a slide 168 feet high, followed by a blast up another massive hill before plunging down 50 feet to the ride’s finish. At reported speeds between 45 and 65 mph, the whole ride takes seconds to complete. “It’s great. Terrifying, but great,” Holland said. “The weird part is you can’t see the slide itself as you go over the top, you’re just dropping into the sky. You can’t see what you’re sliding on, so it’s a little terrifying ‘cause you’re going straight down, just dropping. So, pretty wild. But anybody who likes roller coasters will love Verruckt, because I will say it’s as much roller coaster as it is waterslide.” With a number of Schlitterbahn locations to choose from, the Verruckt, which has already been featured on the Travel Channel, could have ended up elsewhere. So, why Kansas City? “We wanted our Kansas City park to have an iconic ride all to itself,” was the answer to that question found on theverruckt.com. “It’s taller than Niagara Falls, taller than the Statue of Liberty from her toes to the torch. It’s twice the height of the tallest wave ever surfed.” Needless to say, the Verruckt isn’t for the faint of heart. Schlitterbahn.com gives the ride a “high thrill” level, and a list of warnings delivered to riders prior to taking the plunge includes death as a possible hazard. But there are a number of other attractions at Schlitterbahn for those wishing to sit the Verruckt out, including children’s areas, a swim-up bar, lazy rivers and plenty of waterslides that aren’t quite so death-defying. “So you can get there early, plan to ride (the Verruckt), and then you have the rest of the day at the water park just to play, so it’s fun. … It’s a great day for the family and it’s something for everybody,” said Holland, who is married to Julie Solomon and is the father of four. “So there’s a thrill-seeking part of the park and there’s the relaxing part. We love it.” Weather permitting, Schlitterbahn is set to open May 22. More information about the Verruckt and Schlitterbahn’s upcoming season can be found at schlitterbahn.com/kansas-city.

STATE AVENUE CONNEX WINS RECOGNITION, BUT POPULARITY SHOWS IT’S REAL VALUE

By Elvyn JONES | ejones@theworldco.info Justus Welker, director of transportation for Wyandotte County Unified Government, says it’s nice to get award recognition for the recent State Avenue Connex transit improvements but the real satisfaction is providing needed service to the people of the community. “It’s about transporting people to where they need to go,” Welker said. “On average, that routes served 2,200 people a day.” Nonetheless, the Connex has won recognition for its significance in urban planning. In December, the State Avenue Corridor Transit Improvements won recognition from the American Council of Engineering Companies of Kansas as the best public improvement in the state for a city of more than 50,000. In 2011, Unified Government secured a $10.5 million TIGER grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation, which was the primary funding source for the $13 million in improvements made on the about 16-mile route along State and Minnesota avenues. Buses on the east-west routes connect the Village West Parkway in west Kansas City, Kan., to the downtown Kansas City, Mo., 10th and Main Kansas City Area Transportation Authority’s Metrocenter. The State Avenue Connex’s most noticeable upgrades, completed after a design phase that invited substantial public input, are two new transit centers at 47th Street and Michigan Avenue and at Seventh Street and Minnesota Avenue. Associated upgrades along the route included new passenger shelters and benches, landscaping and improved pedestrian connections. The city’s entry application for the ACEC award notes the Connex’s two transit centers are expected to stimulate badly needed development and that the project allowed Unified Government to participate in the “evolving transit system in the Kansas City metro area.” Construction on the improvements were completed in September 2013, about a year after work started on the Connex, Welker said. It was an immediate hit. “I really don’t have the numbers to define it, but once it was finished we had to increase the size of the buses on the Connex,” Welker said. “It is the most popular route in Wyandotte County, by far.” Its popularity stems from the many important stops along the Connex route. It provides access to such popular westside entertainment sites as Schlitterbahn Water Park, the Kansas Speedway and Sporting Park as well as the Village West and The Legends shopping opportunities. Its route east includes a loop to Kansas City Kansas Community College just off State Avenue, the downtown Kansas City, Kan., commercial and civic hub, and finally the eastern terminus in a revitalized downtown Kansas City, Mo., where it links to transit options to the rest of the metropolitan area.

Providence Hospital recognized for coronary care Staff Reports Providence Medical Center has been recognized by Healthgrades as one of America’s 100 Best hospitals for coronary intervention care and a 5-star recipient for treatment of heart attack for 2015. Healthgrades, an online resource that helps consumers make decisions about doctors, hospitals and care, evaluated nearly 4,500 hospitals nationwide for 33 of the most common inpatient procedures and conditions and identified the 100 best performing hospitals within each procedure. The achievement is part of findings released online and in the Healthgrades 2015 Report to the Nation, which demonstrates how clinical performance differs dramatically between hospitals and the impact that this variation may have on health outcomes and organizational costs. “We have taken a team approach in providing comprehensive, advanced care for cardiac, arterial and venous disease,” said Venkat Pasnoori, board-certified cardiologist and medical director of the Cardiac Center at Providence. “We are deeply appreciative of this national recognition that is a reflection of our commitment to provide the highest level of care possible for our patients.” Pasnoori pointed to the following hospital initiatives in helping Providence reach this quality achievement: l Initiating a collaborative effort with the Emergency Department & Cardiovascular nursing units to track and advance Cardiac Care. l The use of the radial artery in the wrist to perform diagnostic and interventional procedures, including coronary angioplasty and stenting, for almost 90 percent of their patients. This technique can reduce the risk of complications significantly and speed recovery.” • Development of a strong relationship with area emergency medical responders in Wyandotte and Leavenworth counties to identify early heart attack victims in the field. • Achieving multiple national accreditations, such as the Gold

Standard from the Society of Chest Pain Centers and the Platinum Performance for the Mission: Lifeline STEMI recognition from the American Heart Association. • Providing minimally invasive techniques to repair holes in the heart. • Focusing on community education with community organizations, HOA HeartSafe, area businesses, churches and schools. For its analysis, Healthgrades evaluated approximately 40 million Medicare-

patient records for nearly 4,500 short-term acute care hospitals nationwide, assessing hospital performance relative to each of 33 common conditions and procedures. Healthgrades recognizes a hospital’s quality achievements for cohort-specific performance, specialty area performance and overall clinical quality.
