To get the conversation going, she asked the audience to look at the first slide, the title slide, and discuss among themselves what they thought it meant:

The independent newsletter that reports vitamin, mineral, and food therapies Multivitamins Might Help Some Women Survive Breast Cancer Women who have been diagnosed with, and treated for, invasive breast cancer have better odds of surviving if they happen to take multivitamin/multimineral supplements.

Sylvia Wassertheil-Smoller, PhD, of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, New York, along with colleagues at 10 other medical centers studied 7,728 post menopausal women from across the United States. All of the women had previously been treated for invasive breast cancer.

Thirty-eight percent of the women were taking multivitamin/multimineral supplements, and the vast majority of them were taking the supplements before their diagnosis.

After an average of seven years follow up, women taking the supplements were 30 percent less likely to die from breast cancer.

Reference: Wassertheil-Smoller S, McGinn AP, Budrys N, et al. Multivitamin and mineral use and breast cancer mortality in older women with invasive breast cancer in the women’s health initiative. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 2013: doi 10.1007/s10549-013-2712-x.

Short Days Call for Vitamin D Theoretically, our bodies make plenty of vitamin D, the so-called sunshine vitamin, when exposed to the sun. But people tend to shy away from the sun, or lather up on sunscreen, which blocks the production of vitamin D. Or they spend too much time in their homes (watching television or on the computer), at work, or in their cars.

It’s no big surprise then that three of every four Americans are deficient in vitamin D. Even if you make ample amounts of vitamin D in the summer, your levels start to decrease with fewer daylight hours and a sun that shines lower on the winter horizon.

If you live north of 35° latitude (roughly Phoenix or Atlanta), the sun will be too low during the winter months to stimulate your body’s production of vitamin D. Supplementation therefore becomes a necessity. A recent study found that taking 2,000 IU daily was not sufficient for boosting vitamin D levels into the normal range. The researchers found that 5,000 IU did the job. If you decide to have your doctor test your blood level of vitamin D, he or she will probably say that any level above 30 ng/mL is fine. However, optimal vitamin D levels fall between 40 and 60 ng/mL. –JC

ElizabEth MaE brookEr Elizabeth Mae (Betty) Brooker passed away on December 6, 2013. Betty was born at Oakland, California, on September 2, 1927, the only child of Theodore and Gladys Brooker. She grew up in Kansas City, Kansas, where she graduated from Wyandotte High School in 1945.

She graduated from the University of Kansas in 1949, one of the first women to earn a degree in Architecture, and served as class secretary for many years. After graduation she worked for the American Institute of Architects and several architecture firms in Kansas City.

She was a member of Friends of the NelsonAtkins Museum of Art, the Kansas City Lyric Opera Guild, the Lawrence-Kansas City Society of the Archaeological Institute of America where she served as SecretaryTreasurer for many years, and the K.U. Alumni Association. A devoted K.U. alumna, Betty made several international trips with the Flying Jayhawks, sometimes as a group leader, and was also a major supporter of Friends of the K.U. Library where, from 1999 through 2001, she served

as President-elect, President, and President Emerita of the Friends.

An equally dedicated volunteer activity was her enthusiastic and devoted efforts for Theatre Lawrence (formerly Lawrence Community Theatre), where she was in charge of intermission hospitality and became famously known as “the cookie lady.”

Quoting a fellow volunteer, “Betty was not only a perfectionist about that job; she disproved the ‘No one is irreplaceable’ theory.

She was irreplaceable when it came to the intermission treats. The custom of the beautiful homemade treat table left us when she did.” The Theatre acknowledged Betty’s work by twice giving her its “Charley Award” for dedicated volunteers.

Her friends remember her as always cheerful, helpful and generous with her time and energy.

Contributions in Betty’s memory may be made to Theatre Lawrence, 4660 Bauer Farm Dr., Lawrence, KS 66049 or to K.U. Library Enrichment, P. O. Box 928, Lawrence, KS 66044.

Marilyn Stokstad said the Spencer Museum of Art was in her will but that she decided it would be “much more fun” to make the donation while she was around to see it.

paintings,” Stokstad said.

“You have to know the literature, the philosophy — you have to know all kinds of things to make art history make sense.”

“The book” is one example.

Stokstad, who arrived at KU in 1958, was teaching introduction to art history when she decided to write “Art History” — used widely by universities nationwide and internationally, and easily the heaviest volume in many a student’s backpack.

There were other surveys of art history, Stokstad said, but they were hardly comprehensive.

For one, they didn’t include women, she said.

And they were limited to Italian, French and some-

times German art, mostly paintings.

It took six or seven years to write and publish, but Stokstad’s “Art History” includes women. And sculpture, textiles and photography.

And Scandinavia, Asia and the Americas.

“When I decided I was going to include the whole world and not just the West, that was a lot of extra work,” she said.

Stokstad received her undergraduate degree from Carleton College, her master’s from Michi-

gan State University and her doctorate from the University of Michigan.

She directed the KU Museum of Art, now called the Spencer, from 1961 to 1968 and holds a number of awards and professional honors. Stokstad’s other textbooks include “Art: A Brief History” and “Medieval Art” — her research specialty.

In her time at KU, she’s seen the art history department grow from only two professors and a museum director who also taught classes. She for-

eliminate racial disparities in the district.

“Beyond Diversity is kind of our baseline professional development,” he said. “It just gives the basis of the protocol that we use when we talk about equity and race issues. So it gives us that protocol about how to talk about it, and then it gives some basic data about achievement gap issues.”

The program is rooted in a discipline known as Critical Race Theory — the idea that racial divisions are embedded into every fiber of American social fabric, often in ways that most white people seldom recognize, but which most people of color experience in every facet of their lives.

To bring that out and enable people to talk about it, the program steers participants through a highly structured regimen, starting with each person identifying themselves on a four-point compass —

thinking; feeling; believing; and acting — then guiding conversations around four “agreements” and six “conditions” that form the ground rules for how participants should talk to one another about race.

endowed directorship,” said current museum director Saralyn Reece Hardy, noting that others include Harvard and Princeton. “That really places us in an elite group of university art museums.”

Reece Hardy said Stokstad’s donation, and KU’s celebration of it, also affirms that art history and the museum are central to education and to society.

That’s been a key theme throughout Stokstad’s career, where art history doesn’t exist in a bubble.

“It’s not just a study of

Emotional experience By the second day of the workshop, it was clear the exercise had been an emotional experience for many participants.

“My eyes have been closed my whole life,” one white participant said after listening to black colleagues describe everyday experiences, like being followed and watched in department stores, or pulled over by police for no apparent reason. “I would be very angry if it was me.”

For one black woman, however, the emotions left her sobbing. “I felt a lot of different things — frustrated, jealous, uneasy,” she said. She also said she wonders “what it’s like not to have that

Stokstad said the museum was in her will but that she decided it would be “much more fun” to make the donation, an undisclosed amount, while she was around to see it.

The Spencer Museum of Art Marilyn Stokstad Directorship enables KU to compete in the marketplace to retain its current director and, in the future, attract a well-qualified candidate, KU Endowment president Dale Seuferling said.

A Jan. 24 investiture ceremony to celebrate Stokstad’s donation and honor Reece Hardy, the recipient, was the

first on KU’s Lawrence campus. Seuferling said faculty professorships are the most commonly endowed positions but that the same model can support university directors, librarians and curators.

And to students who may find themselves in a class using Stokstad’s “Art History,” remember that it’s more than just memorizing paintings and dates.

“Think of the period first, and then think about who illustrates it best,” Stokstad said. “It’s quite easy if you go about it in a reasonable way.”

on your mind every day, to have that burden off.”

School board member Shannon Kimball said she too was affected by the experience.

“I think so many times, I and probably other people have felt satisfied that I’m color blind — I don’t take race into account,” she said. “But what this has demonstrated very vividly is that it impacts your interactions, whether you’re conscious of it or not. So being aware of that fact is so much more powerful, because once you have that awareness, you have to notice things that otherwise you might not.”

tions,” said school board member Kristie Adair, who took part in the seminar. “And then we move it down to the site level.”

Doll said each of the schools in the district has formed “equity teams” to engage in conversations and identify racial issues in their buildings.

And most of them are developing “CARE teams” — Collaborative Action Research for Equity — to train teachers in specific strategies to address racial disparities.

“It’s one thing for us as leaders to say we’ve got this achievement gap, and we’ve got this protocol, but how is that going to impact kids,” Doll said. “We train teachers, then, to interact with kids in the classroom. I think it’s really the meat of the whole thing, to be honest.

Those are being implemented in most, if not all of our schools this year.”

Next steps District officials said the two-day workshops are only one part of the district’s strategy to address equity issues and racial disparities.

Catching fire

LEGISLATURE

Nutrition advocates unsure of farm bill’s implications

By Giles Bruce gbruce@ljworld.com

While local farmers appear to be happy that a new farm bill is close to being signed into law, nutrition advocates worry that cuts to the food stamp program could further exacJenkins erbate problems for the hungry in Douglas County.

The U.S. House this week approved a five-year reauthorization of the farm bill, which funds both agricultural initiatives and programs to feed the poor. The bill seems closer to becoming law than anytime in the past two years, when it became stalled in Congress.

The proposed bill gets rid of the $5 billion a year in direct payments to farmers whether they grew crops or not, reinvesting much of that money into an enhanced crop insurance program. It also cut about $8.5 billion over the next 10 years from food stamps, officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

The Annual Healthy Heart Fair blood profile includes the following tests: total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, VLDL, triglycerides, and cholesterol ratios. I understand that no additional individualized test can be included in the Health Fair profile blood tests.

Results are reviewed by a pathologist. The results and a cover letter are mailed to the participant as soon as reasonably possible but in most cases will take about three weeks after the Fair to be mailed from the hospital. I understand that if my identifying information as noted above, including name, address, gender, and birth date, are not fully complete nor legible, the blood profile results may not be able to be correctly processed nor mailed to me. I also understand that results will not be released or mailed to anyone other than myself (including personal physicians). I give my consent to Lawrence Memorial Hospital to draw blood from me for the Annual Healthy Heart Fair blood profile. I agree that LMH and its staff will not be held responsible for any injuries including bruising, incurred during the blood drawing process. I understand the responsibility for initializing any follow-up examinations for any abnormalities identified by these test, lies with me as the person responsible for my own health and not with Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

Who do you want to win the Super Bowl?

City officials are hoping to win $750,000 in state grant money to build a new hike and bike trail through downtown and East Lawrence.

City commissioners at their Tuesday evening meeting will apply for the grant that would start where the CITY COMMISSION B u r r o u g h s Creek Rail Trail ends near Hobbs Park and end at Constant Park near Sixth and Tennessee streets.

“It is going to be fantastic,” said local architect Mike Myers, who has been lobbying for the project. “I like to think of this as kind of a pedestrian and bicycle super highway.”

The trail would take a unique route in that it is proposed to go underneath the Kansas River bridges in downtown Lawrence. That route will allow pedestrians to get to Robinson Park, a small pocket park near the southern end of the bridges, without having to cross either Sixth or Massachusetts streets.

City officials have been interested in providing better access to Robinson Park.

The park houses Founders Rock, a monument that lists the names of 143 founders

City officials also have said a scenic river overlook could be built at the park, if future funding becomes available.

The trail also is proposed to run by the Warehouse Arts District and recently renovated Poehler Lofts building at Eighth and Delaware streets, and adjacent to the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Depot at Seventh and New Jersey streets. The depot, which is scheduled to be renovated, would provide parking, restrooms and other services for trail visitors.

City officials also are touting that the new trail section would make it easier for pedestrians in southeast Lawrence to access downtown. The new trail would connect with the Burroughs Creek Trail, which connects to the Haskell Rail trail which ends near 31st Street and Haskell Avenue. Once the South Lawrence Trafficway is completed near 31st and Haskell, pedestrians also will have access to the extensive SLT trail system, which will run the entire length of the trafficway.

City officials will learn later this year whether they have been awarded the grant. The city is proposing to spend about $250,000 in local funds as part of the project. huge group effort,” Davidson said. “We couldn’t do it without our volunteers. They’re so passionate about it; they’re survivors themselves.”

Lawrence resident Dianna Nelson is one of those volunteers. Nelson, who gives her time to several other LMH programs, helped set up decorations for the event.

As a 12-year survivor of breast cancer, Nelson said she knows firsthand how Catch a Break can make a difference to those fighting the disease.

“It’s not just medical reimbursement,” she said. “It’s gasoline for the car so they can drive to their appointments, it’s helping with their utilities. It’s just a little extra.”

SNAP CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Lawrence, has a work group dedicated to expanding access to healthy foods across the county.

Roughly 18,000 people in Douglas County don’t have consistent access to nutritious food, according to Feeding America.

Local nutrition advocates view the low SNAP participation rate as an opportunity to get money for groceries into the hands of low-income residents.

“We think it makes sense since that assistance is there to help people receive the nutrition their families need,” said Christina Holt, chairwoman of the Health Food for All work group and a director in the Work Group for Community Health and Development at Kansas University. “Plus, it’s good for the local economy. When people are receiving SNAP benefits, they use those benefits to purchase food from local vendors.”

Some argue that the low participation rate can be explained, in part, by Douglas County’s large population of Kansas University students. College students generally aren’t eligible for food stamps unless they have small children or work at least 20 hours a week.

“Counties with large colleges or military bases show up with very low rates due to the number of college students and others who generally do not apply for food assistance,” said Theresa Freed, spokeswoman for the Kansas Department of Children and Families.

“Sedgwick County (87.9 percent enrollment) is an exception to this rule because it has a higher population of low-income residents to offset the college population.”

Local groups have identified other barriers to SNAP enrollment, including an overly cumbersome application process and the sense of shame that can come with seeking government benefits.

“There’s a lot of misinformation out there,” said Ellen Feldhausen, spokes-

People do not stay on SNAP forever; the average length of time is a few months.

There is a very low rate of error and fraud. And SNAP lasts most families 2.5 weeks out of the month — the benefits are very low. But that misinformation contributes to the stigma that makes people reluctant to sign up for SNAP.” —Ellen Feldhausen, spokeswoman for the Harvesters Community Food Network woman for the Harvesters Community Food Network, which serves Douglas County. “People do not stay on SNAP forever; the average length of time is a few months.

There is a very low rate of error and fraud. And SNAP lasts most families 2.5 weeks out of the month — the benefits are very low. But that misinformation contributes to the stigma that makes people reluctant to sign up for SNAP.” Also, people often don’t apply because they don’t realize they’re eligible or may have been denied enrollment years earlier, when the guidelines were different, said Shelley Paul, SNAP outreach coordinator for Harvesters (that organization has a hotline — 877-653-9522 — where callers can find out whether they may be eligible for SNAP). As of now, the benefits are generally available to households earning less than 130 percent of the poverty level (roughly $15,171 for a single person or $31,005 for a family of four).

To increase participation in the federal program, local nutrition advocates have proposed training employees at social service agencies to assist with SNAP signup, providing more outreach at public events, holding a SNAP enrollment day and partnering with the schools to pass out information on SNAP to families who receive free or reduced-cost lunches.

president of the Douglas County Farm Bureau, said many local farmers would gladly trade in direct payments for strengthened crop insurance.

“Crop insurance can make or break you,” said Fishburn, who farms corn and soybeans and raises cattle southwest of Lawrence. “Without crop insurance or protection, we probably wouldn’t have made it through the last few years of drought.”

Meanwhile, Jeremy Farmer, CEO of Lawrence food pantry Just Food, said the cuts to SNAP will continue to put more of the burden for feeding the poor onto local nonprofits and food banks,

Tim Huelksamp, whose district covers most of western and central Kansas, getting kicked off the House Agriculture Committee in late 2012 over disagreements with party leadership.

Lawrence’s representative, Lynn Jenkins, said she voted against the bill because it costs too much without significant enough regulatory reform. The bill’s projected savings of $16.6 billion over 10 years were a far cry from an earlier House version of the legislation that Jenkins supported, which included $40 billion in cuts.

Specifically, Jenkins said she opposed the high-target prices for commodities and protec-

tionist provisions for catfish farms and wanted to see a permanent fix to an inspection rule for livestock producers.

“Kansans know that this bill not only impacts our farmers and ranchers but every single American family,” Jenkins said in a statement.

“Over the coming weeks and months ahead, I will do everything in my power to continue to be a strong voice for both American agriculture and the American consumer.”

As the legislation heads to the Senate and, after that, to President Obama, agriculture groups just want a bill passed so farmers can start planning for the future. “Having a farm bill ensures and protects our way of life,” said Fishburn, from the Douglas County Farm Bureau. “At least for the next five years.”

Questions to answer

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Lawmakers seek to sever state from health act, join multi-state compact Topeka (ap) — Some conservative Kansas lawmakers are pushing to sever the state from the authority of the Affordable Care Act. Rep. Brett Hildabrand, a Shawnee Republican, introduced a bill in the House Committee on Federal and State Affairs this Hildabrand past week to make Kansas a member of the Health Care Compact, which is a group of states asking Congress to give them independence from the federal health care law.

Eight states, including Missouri and Oklahoma, have approved plans to join the compact, The Wichita Eagle reported.

Hildabrand said he got the idea from an email conversation with Sen. Mary Pilcher-Cook, a Shawnee Republican, and Republican Secretary of State Kris Kobach.

Pilcher-Cook, chairwoman of the Senate Public Health and Welfare committee, conducted meetings last week about the ACA’s impact on small businesses.

A Houston-based organization, Competitive Governance Action, designed the legislation.

Craig Ellis, a spokesman for the group, said the organization doesn’t disclose its donor list and doesn’t accept donations from the health care industry.

A similar bill was passed by the Kansas House in 2012, but it never made it through the Senate. Hildabrand said he didn’t have any con-

tact with the organization before introducing the bill.

Member states would have the ability to “suspend by legislation the operation of all federal laws, rules, regulations, and orders regarding health care,� according to the bill.

That means member states would be allowed to set their own rules and regulations, Ellis said. If Vermont wanted to adopt a single-payer health care system, for instance, it could. By the same token, if Kansas wanted to pursue a business-based solution, it could do that, as well. “That’s the beauty of it.

They get to determine,�

Ellis said.

He said states are better suited than Washington to make that determination for their residents.

Under the plan, states

would still receive the funds allocated for the ACA but could decide for themselves how to use them.

That is contingent on Congress giving states the autonomy to do that, however.

For the bill to go into effect, Congress must agree to give states the power to enter into compacts, or interstate agreements, as allowed in the U.S. Constitution. No presidential signature would be needed. “The Constitution is quite clear on this. Congress must give consent.

It does not say anything about the president,� Ellis said.

While Congress is unlikely to approve such a plan right now, Hildabrand said, that door could be opened if Republicans take control of the U.S. Senate in November.

Sperm donor: No plans to donate again

By Steve Fry The Topeka Capital-Journal

Topeka — After what he has been through in the past year, William Marotta wouldn’t provide sperm again to a couple wanting to parent a child.

No way.

Not using a physician during the artificial insemination of the mother is the core of a ruling in a civil case bearing Marotta’s initials as the defendant.

Last week a Shawnee County District Court judge ruled in her written decision that because Marotta and a same-sex couple didn’t have a physician artificially inseminate one of the women, Marotta wasn’t entitled to the same protections given sperm donors under Kansas law.

Kansas law requires a doctor to take part in the insemination.

A reporter asked Marotta whether he might provide sperm in the future to a couple in a “conventional� way using a doctor rather than delivering the sperm in cups over three days so a couple — not a doctor — could inseminate the birth mother. “To me, this was a conventional way,� Marotta said Thursday during an interview at his home. “The Kansas law is stuck behind the times.�

Keystone XL opponents undaunted by state report

Sunday, February 2, 2014

| 7A

Nose to nose

By Grant Schulte Associated Press

Lincoln, Neb. — With yet another obstacle removed for the Keystone XL pipeline, opponents were pressing forward with a lawsuit to challenge the project, public protests and an effort to inject the issue into the November elections.

Supporters and opponents both were quick to claim victories with the U.S. State Department report released Friday, which raised no major objections to the pipeline. The oil industry, some union groups and congressional Republicans called on the Obama administration to move forward with the project, while a coalition of landowners and environmentalists say there is still cause for denying a federal permit. The project would ship 830,000 barrels of oil a day from Canada to Texas Gulf Coast refineries.

Meanwhile, farmers and ranchers in Nebraska who oppose the pipeline are planning to run for seats on a state board that regulates power stations that are needed along the project route. And national activists say they have recruited more than 75,000 volunteers willing to participate in civil disobedience, should President Barack Obama approve the Keystone project.

The project now goes to a 30-day comment period and a review by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and other agencies. Obama has 90 days to make the decision on the pipeline, but the White House on Friday disputed the notion that the report is headed to a fast approval. Oil began flowing last week through an Okla-

“There’s no question, if the president approves this permit, that there will be civil disobedience,” said Jane Kleeb, executive director of the group Bold Nebraska, which has helped organize opposition in the state. “We’ve said from the beginning that we will support the landowners and what they want to do and what they think is best for their property. I think you’ll see some landowners driving really slow on their county roads to block the (pipeline) trucks.”

Project backers said the report — the latest in a fiveyear review by state and federal agencies — bolsters their case for the pipeline and eliminates the need for further delays.

Opponents were planning to host vigils throughout the nation Monday and “pipeline meet-ups” throughout February to encourage people to raise the issue with candidates in the 2014 election. They also were waiting for a Nebraska judge to rule on a

lawsuit challenging a state law that allowed the project to proceed. A ruling is expected by late March, and whatever the outcome an appeal to the Nebraska Supreme Court is a near certainty.

Many opponents have turned their hopes to Nebraska, where a group of farmers and ranchers have joined forces with national environmental groups to block the pipeline.

Julia Trigg Crawford, the owner of a farm near Paris, Texas, who is in a legal battle with TransCanada over the pipeline, said she was disappointed in the State Department’s report but happy to see some acknowledgement that tar sands will do further environmental damage.

“The politicians will throw someone under the bus to get what they want, and last year they threw Oklahoma and Texas under the bus,” Crawford said. “I’m hopeful that our neighbors to the north fare better than we did, but ... it’s not as encouraging as I hoped it would be.”

Christie critics seize on claims of ex-loyalist; evidence may exist

By Angela Delli Santi and Geoff Mulvihill

“

I know it’s Super Bowl weekend and Chris Christie doesn’t want to talk about anything but the game, but it looks like he’s going to Trenton, N.J. — As New Jersey lawmakers last year need to change his plans.”

Associated Press

began investigating lane closures that caused four days of brutal traffic jams near the George Washington Bridge, Gov. Chris Christie was insistent about one thing: He did not know about the tie-ups until they were over.

His critics had doubts but not proof, even as emails made public in January showed that one of Christie’s aides called for “some traffic problems in Fort Lee,” apparently as political retribution against the Democratic mayor of the town for not supporting Christie’s re-election campaign.

— Democratic National Committee spokesman Michael Czin Friday, the lawyer for a former Christie loyalist said in a letter that “evidence exists” that Christie knew about the closures as they were happening, although he did not accuse the Republican governor and possible 2016 presidential candidate of knowing about it beforehand. In a statement, Christie’s office denied the allegation made on behalf of former Port Authority of New York and New Jersey executive David Wildstein.

But even without detailing any evidence, the claim gave Christie’s critics something new to seize on as they bashed the governor as he appeared at events leading up to Sunday’s Super Bowl in his state.

“I know it’s Super Bowl weekend and Chris Christie doesn’t want to talk about anything but the game, but it looks like he’s going to need to change his plans,” Democratic National Committee spokesman Michael Czin said in a statement.

The Houston firm said in its weekly report Friday that 1,422 rigs were exploring for oil and 358 for gas.

Five were listed as miscellaneous. A year ago there were 1,764 active rigs.

Of the major oil- and gas-producing states, Louisiana and Texas each gained three rigs, Ohio was up two and Alaska and New Mexico rose by one apiece.

Oklahoma was down by two and Kansas by one. Arkansas, California, Colorado, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming were all unchanged.

The U.S. rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981 and bottomed at 488 in 1999.

Kan. has near $17M revenue surplus Topeka — Kansas collected nearly $17 million more in tax revenues than anticipated in January.

The Department of Revenue reported Friday that the state’s tax collections were $546 million last month. The state’s official forecast predicted collections of $529 million.

The surplus is 3.2 percent.

Since the current fiscal year began in July, the state has collected $3.3 billion in tax revenues. That’s $21 million more than anticipated, or about 0.6 percent.

However, collections during the current fiscal year are lagging behind collections during the

at Gov. Sam Brownback’s urging to stimulate the economy.

During the same period in the last fiscal year, the state collected almost $3.7 billion. This year’s collections have dropped almost $370 million, or 10 percent.

Man gets 2 years for identity theft scam St. Joseph, Mo. — A Guatemalan man who was living in Kansas will serve two years in prison for his role in an identity theft scam involving COURTS the St. Joseph license office.

Twenty-nine-year-old Pedro Pablo-Solis, of Liberal, was sentenced Thursday to two years without parole for aggravated identity theft.

He pleaded guilty in September to providing false identification documents to get licenses for more than 100 illegal immigrants through a St. Joseph license office.

The St. Joseph NewsPress reports that prosecutors say he obtained Social Security cards and birth certificates that were used by people in the country illegally to obtain identification documents in Missouri.

Jury awards $917K in discrimination suit Kansas City, Kan. — A Wyandotte County jury has awarded four former Kansas Gas Service employees more than $900,000 after deciding

they were discriminated against based on age when they were fired for sharing emailed porn.

The Kansas City Star reports the case began when KGS discovered pornographic materials had been shared in the company email system. Ten workers were fired among 52 employees who received the emailed obscene materials.

The four men, all older than 40, said they were disciplined more harshly than others who received the emailed porn. The jury said the four men received unequal enforcement of discipline for a first offense. The $917,035 award was for lost income and emotional distress.

Police: 3 die after cell towers collapse Clarksburg, W.Va. — A 300-foot cellphone tower collapsed Saturday and minutes later a smaller tower fell, killing two contractors and a firefighter, authorities said.

The contractors were tethered to the larger tower when it collapsed in Clarksburg, State Police Cpl. Mark Waggamon said.

A firefighter with the Nutter Fort Fire Department was killed when he was walking from his vehicle to the scene.

Two other contractors working on the larger tower were hurt and taken to a hospital. Waggamon described their injuries as serious but not life-threatening.

Waggamon said three of the workers were more than 60 feet up on the tower. One of those workers was killed along with a co-worker who was about 20 feet up when the tower toppled.

Two other workers at the site were not injured.

BRIEFLY Man used stolen tow ing at the Vermont Carnival Saturday. Tucker is a junior truck to take cars from Sun Valley, Idaho.

Atlanta â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Louis Mitchell Jr. saw a brilliant opportunity when thousands of Georgia motorists abandoned their cars on snow-paralyzed roads this past week, authorities say.

Police say he used a tow truck he had stolen earlier in January to haul away four cars left on roads â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and without anyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s permission.

Online jail records show the Atlanta Police Department also arrested Mitchell on suspicion of driving with a suspended or revoked license, using a fake license plate, damaging property and three instances of forgery. Mitchell is being held on $92,000 bail.

After traffic jams that state officials described as unprecedented, towing firms were hired to remove some vehicles impeding traffic.

Police were ordered to look out for potential looters, and Mitchellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unmarked tow truck caught a police officerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention. Mitchell didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pull over when asked and the officer gave chase, police told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Bender says that Tucker died at the scene after attempts to resuscitate him failed. The cause of his death is still under investigation.

Dartmouth President Philip Hanlon shared the news through a campuswide email and urged students, faculty and staff to contact the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safety and security department if they or someone they know needs to speak with a counselor or chaplain.

Woman arrested after sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body parts found Detroit â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A suburban Detroit woman was being held in connection with the death of her adult son, whose dismembered remains were found dumped in trash bags along the sides of roads, police said.

The names of the 59-year-old woman and the 32-year-old victim were not released, but St. Clair Shores police Sgt. Jay Cohoe told the Times Herald of Port Huron that they were mother and son.

The woman, who lives in St. Clair Shores just east of Detroit, faces murder and dismemberment charges.

She hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been officially charged. Police said prosecutors in Macomb County are expected to review a warrant with the charges Monday.

The victim was reported missing Jan. 26 and identified through fingerprints.

KBA progress There have been some bumps in the road, but the Kansas Bioscience Authority has proven its value to the state.

T

he Kansas Bioscience Authority has encountered a number of bumps in its first decade of operation, but we disagree with the assessment of State Rep. Mark Kahrs, RWichita, that forming the KBA was “a bad idea.”

Without KBA, there is a good chance that Kansas wouldn’t have attracted the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility that’s under development in Manhattan or the National Cancer Institute designation for the Kansas University Medical Center — not to mention the many smaller businesses that have benefitted from KBA support. The Authority provided key investments to get various business ventures off the ground and helped hire key researchers to support the state’s bioscience efforts. Not every investment has been a winner, but the KBA has put Kansas on the map when it comes to the bioscience industry.

Kahrs expressed his opinion last week during a House Appropriations Committee hearing about the KBA budget. Duane Cantrell, who was hired 15 months ago to serve as KBA’s chief executive officer, attended the hearing to urge committee members to approve a $105 million allocation for the agency over the next three years, during which the KBA will be seeking to achieve the financial independence that was envisioned for it.

State funding for the KBA, which was founded in 2004, initially was scheduled to end after 10 years. The hope was that the Authority would be able to use the return on its investments to become self-supporting. That move to self-sufficiency has taken a little longer than expected for a variety of reasons. The effects of a major national economic downturn can’t be discounted, and the KBA, unfortunately, became mired in political battles and some questionable management.

During last week’s hearing, Kahrs also told Cantrell that “You inherited a disaster.” That may be a bit of an exaggeration, but there was a clear need, when Cantrell came on board, for a KBA course correction. Its supporters envisioned that the Authority would begin by investing in infrastructure and people to generate ideas that would then feed future development. The final stage would be able to get a return on that investment that would provide funding for further KBA operations and investments.

Cantrell and the current KBA board now are refocusing on the final step in that vision. Cantrell told the committee that the agency has pulled back $57 million in commitments to organizations that hadn’t met their development goals and is placing more emphasis on getting a return on its investments.

Several legislators indicated they were impressed, as they should be, with the KBA’s new direction. The additional three years of KBA funding is a good investment for the state. The agency has more than proven its worth and deserves an opportunity to become a stable, ongoing asset for Kansas.

Sympathy lacking for multimillionaire Dear Tom Perkins: I’m writing to apologize.

I do this on behalf of the 99 percent of us who are not multimillionaires. You, of course, are, having made a pile as a venture capitalist and co-founder of the firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers.

I admit, I’d have thought a guy like you had little to complain about. But that was before you wrote that tear-jerking Jan. 24 letter to The Wall Street Journal revealing the pain, the oppression, the abject sense of vulnerability and fear, that go with having a net worth equal to the GNP of some developing nations.

In your letter, you decried the “rising tide of hatred” you’ve experienced at the hands of progressives waging “war” against your people. Your examples were heart-rending. You mentioned popular anger over rising real-estate prices.

And “outraged” public reaction to dedicated buses ferrying tech workers to their San Francisco-area jobs.

And the people who have called your ex-wife, novelist Danielle Steel, a “snob.”

Oh, the humanity.

There are, you said, parallels to Nazi Germany and its treatment of another op-

“This is a very dangerous drift in our American thinking,” you warned. “Kristallnacht was unthinkable in 1930; is its descendant ‘progressive’ radicalism unthinkable now?”

You’re right. How could we have missed it? Calling Danielle Steel a snob is exactly like that turning point on the road to Holocaust when anti-Jewish riots broke out across Germany, 7,500 Jewish homes and businesses were vandalized, 30,000 Jewish men were sent to concentration camps, 91 Jews were killed and the Nazis, blaming the Jews themselves for the car-

nage, fined them about $400 million in 1938 U.S. dollars.

You’ve been criticized for what you wrote, but we both know the only thing wrong with it is, you didn’t go far enough. You didn’t mention how one day the rich may be forced to stitch yellow dollar signs to their clothing or have their net worth tattooed on their forearms.

Being forced to pay taxes for the upkeep of schools your children wouldn’t be caught dead attending?

That’s exactly like slavery.

Zoning laws that limit you to one measly helipad on your very own land? No difference between that and the Trail of Tears.

Where will it end? Will they make you fly commercial? Buy off the rack? Golf on a public course? Might as well hitch up the boxcars and pack you in.

I confess to having been blind to the suffering of the Affluent-American community. But you’ve opened my eyes. How awful it must be, forced to live in segregated neighborhoods like Brentwood and Star Island in constant fear of metaphorical beatings and rhetorical lynching if you dare get out of your place and whine about the travails of your life of vulgar excess.

Well, sir, thanks to great Affluent-American leaders like you, I have a dream that one day your children will not be judged by the content of their offshore accounts.

You are as human as anyone else. Your manservant puts your pants on one leg at a time just like the rest of us. So I apologize to you on behalf of the 40-year-old man with a college degree struggling to raise his son on a McSalary, the little girl trying to concentrate on algebra while her stomach growls with missed-meal cramps, the Walmart employees collecting food for co-workers, the homeless family praying the social worker will find them shelter for the night as temperature and snow fall steadily.

You know, until I read your letter, I thought they were the ones most deserving of my empathy and concern, these victims of wealth inequality, a tilted playing field and the sheer greed of rapacious money pigs. But you’ve set me straight, and I want you to know I’m with you all the way.

I mean, now that I know who the real victims are.

While I was taking the mail from the lockbox, the wind increased, my walker took off and ended up one block away by the curb on a street that is usually busy. At that time, without a walker or a cane, I felt like I was in a boat without a paddle.

Fortunately, there was little traffic at that particular time.

At last it dawned on me. I was in Memphis, home of “The King.” The pink limo had to figure in the Elvis legend. It wouldn’t have surprised me to learn that Elvis tooled about in such a conveyance. If I remember correctly, he wasn’t famous for his refined taste.

The pink limo picked me up. A few blocks from the motel, suddenly, there it was: Graceland, looming like a mausoleum at the end of a long driveway lit with pale lights.

LAWRENCE • STATE KENNY WOODRUFF, LEFT, AND NELSON KRUEGER, shake hands after Krueger’s first solo flight on Sept. 11, 1963, in this submitted photo. Krueger called Woodruff “Pappy,” and Woodruff called Krueger “Pup.” Krueger says Woodruff’s instructions stay with him during every flight.

will have spent at the controls before he takes his first solo flight. Two thousand is the approximate number of feet he’ll be in the air.

Unless you are a pilot, you don’t know what it feels like to have your instructor take you by the arm and say it is time to fly alone. But you might be able to imagine.

“At first, it is like ‘Oh boy,’” said Lawrence resident Scott Randall, who took instructions from Krueger eight years ago.

But then something happens. You start doing what you are trained to do, Randall said. An instinct, even if it is a young one, starts to kick in.

“I remember taking off and still being nervous,” Randall said of his first solo flight. “But I also remember that Nelson was wearing a red shirt that day. A few minutes into the flight, I looked down and saw this red dot standing by the runway. That’s when it hit me that I’m really doing this.”

It hits people all the time at the Lawrence Municipal Airport. With some training and some trust, they can fly.

I don’t know. I’m still leaning toward miracle.

Krueger’s home, and his mother would come to the yard and wave a white dish towel to catch her son’s attention. It may as well have been a surrender flag.

Surely she had given up any thoughts of her son becoming anything other than a pilot.

“It has been a life of gold for me,” Krueger said. “I can’t get loose from it, and I don’t want to. I bet I’m at this airport 300 days a year.”

In that time, he’s learned more than just how to take off and lll land. It is odd, he said, All pilots remembut going several hunber the instructor who dred miles an hour in an took their arm and sent aircraft is a great way to them on their way. For learn how to go slow.

Krueger, it was a steady “Nothing needs to be pilot in a little Hays done quickly up here,” airport. His name was Krueger said. “I tell my Kenny Woodruff, but students that if you go Krueger simply called slow, you get yourself in him “Pappy.” And Wood- trouble slower.” ruff called him “Pup.” And really, why would Krueger, 66, began tak- you want to do anything ing lessons at 14. Pappy too quickly up here? and Pup would fly over Many pilots will tell you

that the greatest joy of flying is taking the time to savor all the things you can do up here that you can’t do down there.

“You get the big picture up there,” Randall said. “Sometimes you will be flying over Lawrence, and then 15 minutes later you’ll be driving on one of the city streets you just flew over. Then it hits you that there are 60,000 to 70,000 people down here and there are only a couple up there. It is a neat feeling.”

Krueger said it has been his experience that some people will spend the $7,500 or so on flight lessons for practical reasons. It will make for a shorter trip to their cabin in the Ozarks or a quicker business trip, or whatever. But most people, he said, do it for the emotional reasons.

“The airplane can take you to places that others can only dream of,”

Krueger said. lll There is a lot to remember when landing an aircraft. You have to fly into the wind to slow down your speed.

Reduce that throttle to about 80 knots, or a mere 90 miles an hour or so. At about a half mile from the runway, you need to be at about 400 feet in the air and dropping. By the way, you also ought to check and make sure you are lined up with the runway. Hopefully, you’ve done that by the time you are at about 50 feet out from the landing strip. At that point, you’ve descended quite a bit. You should be locked into what pilots call “the slot,” the proper angle of descent and glide path. It is time to execute the critical movement, the “flare,” where you descend to a mere 5 feet above the ground. And then you

L awrence J ournal -W orld must do what really can’t be taught in a textbook, but rather only through experience: Pull back on the control wheel with just the right amount of force at the right moment in time so that you land, but not with a thud.

This is where the inner voices that constantly travel with a pilot are likely to speak up. They’re apt to say any number of things.

Krueger’s frequently talks about a bird. Hold the control wheel like a young bird — firm enough that it won’t fly away but gentle enough that you don’t crush it.

The voices vary from pilot to pilot, but they all come from the same place: that person who once took you by the arm and said he trusted you.

And you got in a plane by yourself and proved that you trusted that person.

And you still do.

Krueger, you see, has never really flown alone.

And he’s flown a lot: about 600 crossings of the North Atlantic and about 100 crossings of the Pacific. That’s a lot of landings, but every single one of them has come with Kenny Woodruff’s voice talking to Krueger.

Pappy telling Krueger to “pull it back, pull it back” at just the right moment before touchdown.

And Randall hears Krueger’s voice on every flight, too, so in a sense, Pappy speaks to him as well.

Think about that for a moment: Pappy — a man who departed this Earth years ago — still flies its skies nearly every day.

See, I told you it was a miracle.

BRIEFLY Grants to help trafficking victims Topeka — Five Kansas groups have been awarded funds from the attorney general’s office to help victims of human trafficking.

The assistance program was established last year after the Legislature passed new laws cracking down on the crime.

The attorney general’s office said Thursday the grants total nearly $70,000 and will be used by groups that aid human trafficking victims in Lawrence, Kansas City, Topeka and Wichita.

More than 200 human trafficking victims were identified for services by the organizations since passage of the 2013 legislation.

Man pleads guilty to manslaughter Topeka — A man whose first conviction in a 1999 death in Topeka was overturned pleaded no contest to voluntary manslaughter.

Russell Lee Shumway was scheduled for a March trial for second-degree murder in the death of Mitchell Davis, 28, at his Topeka home in October 1999.

Prosecutors say Davis was beaten with a 2-by-4 after he woke up while Shumway and another man were trying to steal from him.

Shumway’s first conviction in 2000 was overturned last year by the Kansas Court of Appeals, over questions about the credibility of prosecution witnesses, claims of ineffective counsel and because no physical evidence tied Shumway to the slaying.

Shumway has been in prison since his conviction.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY CENTER JOEL EMBIID IS SENT TO THE FLOOR BY TEXAS CENTER CAMERON RIDLEY while battling for a rebound during the first half of KU’s 81-69 loss to the Longhorns on Saturday in Austin, Texas.

Texas hands KU first Big 12 loss

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Austin, Texas — Those who like drama during the course of the conference season have to be happy Texas’ basketball team crushed Kansas University, 81-69, on Saturday in Erwin Center.

The Jayhawks (16-5, 7-1) — who had raced to a 7-0 start and were threatening to leave nine schools in their wake while storming toward a 10th consecutive crown — now hold just a one-game lead on the Longhorns (17-4, 6-2) and two-game margin on Oklahoma heading into Tuesday’s game at Baylor.

“Obviously, we could have put ourselves in unbelievable position today,” KU coach Bill Self said, realizing a victory could have given the Jayhawks a whopping three-game lead on their closest competitors.

“It will come down to the

Russell Wilson

last week,” Self predicted. “I said 14-4 would win it. I’m not sure I’m going to be far off on that one.”

The Jayhawks entered Saturday’s game on the heels of a 92-81 home victory over Iowa State, after which coach Fred Hoiberg said he wouldn’t be shocked if KU ran the table in league play.

Saturday’s game — in which KU hit just 25.8 percent of its first-half shots in falling behind 38-23 at the break — made the undefeated talk seem silly in retrospect.

The Longhorns, who had 12 blocked shots to KU’s four and outrebounded the Jayhawks, 44-37, held a game-high 20-point lead, 4727, with 16:40 to play. UT’s lead never dipped below 11 the rest of the way.

“He (Self) told us he TEXAS CENTER CAMERON RIDLEY knew we weren’t going to THROWS DOWN A DUNK on Kansas center Joel Embiid after being fouled durPlease see KANSAS, page 4B ing the second half.

UT legit threat to win league Austin, Texas — A young, hungry, cohesive Texas basketball team stormed out of the enormous Big 12 shadow cast

by Kansas University, and there went the Longhorns’ anonymity.

By whipping the Jayhawks, 81-69, Saturday in the aging Erwin Center, the ’Horns tore the veil off of their secret: They’re a very good basketball team, a bona fide contender for the Big 12 title.

At least they were as the hunters. Now, with a victory over a ranked opponent for a fourth consecutive game, they’re one of the hunted.

Texas coach Rick Barnes, in the aftermath of the wire-to-wire pummelling, already resumed working on his players’ heads.

“It is such a fine line between winning and losing that if you start drinking the poison and think that

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

you are there, it all gets away,” Barnes said. “This is one game, and I want them to enjoy it because they should, but we have a long way to go.”

And they just added a backpack full of bricks known as expectations and full of mirrors that look better to their journey.

Kansas knows all about those.

| SPORTS WRAP |

Manning NFL MVP New York — Peyton Manning’s record-setting season earned him his fifth Associated Press NFL MVP award Saturday night in a landslide.

No other player has won more than three.

Denver’s record-setting quarterback, who threw for 55 touchdowns and 5,477 yards in leading the Broncos to the AFC’s best record, earned 49 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the league.

New England quarterback Tom Brady received the other vote.

Manning also took the AP’s Offensive Player of the Year award for the second time.

Manning received 33 votes for that honor. Running back LeSean McCoy of Philadelphia was second with 10 votes, followed by Kansas City running back Jamaal Charles with four.

Carolina grabbed two major awards, with Ron Rivera winning AP NFL Coach of the Year and linebacker Luke Kuechly voted top defensive player.

Green Bay running back Eddie Lacy and Jets defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson were the top rookies for 2013.

San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers took the Comeback Player of the Year award at the NFL Honors show.

Rivera’s fine work in his third season in charge in Carolina brought him 211⁄2 votes. That outdistanced Kansas City’s Andy Reid, who received 131⁄2 votes. In his first year with the Chiefs, Reid took them from 2-14 to 11-5 and an AFC wild-card berth.

PRO FOOTBALL

Guy among seven selected for hall New York — After waiting 23 years, Oakland’s Ray Guy is the first punter elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

“Good things are worth waiting for,” Guy said Saturday night after being elected along with six other players.

Defensive end Michael Strahan, receiver Andre Reed, defensive back Aeneas Williams and defensive end Claude Humphrey also were part of the class of 2014. Two first-time eligible players, linebacker Derrick Brooks and offensive tackle Walter Jones, were selected.

GOLF

Watson leads Phoenix Open Scottsdale, Ariz. — Bubba Watson shot a 3-under 68 Saturday at the Phoenix Open for a two-stroke lead at 15 under. Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a 72 and was tied for 54th at 2-under 211, 13 strokes back.

BASEBALL

Royals sign Chen Kansas City, Mo. — The Royals announced the signing of veteran pitcher Bruce Chen to a $4.25 million, oneyear deal on Saturday that includes a mutual option for the 2015 season.

TENNIS

Bryans win doubles San Diego — Bob and Mike Bryan beat Dominic Inglot and Colin Fleming, 6-2, 6-3, 3-6, 6-1, Saturday to pull the United States to 2-1 against Britain in the first round of the Davis Cup.

FSHS girls finish Classic on high note

By Bobby Nightengale

“

I think it was the best game that we A first-round loss kept played this year ... ” bnightengale@ljworld.com

Free State High’s girls basketball players out of Firebird Winter Classic championship for the first time in five years. They were ready to fight for a consolation prize on Saturday morning at FSHS. The Firebirds earned a 54-39 victory over Hutchinson in the tournament’s fifth-place game despite watching a sevenpoint halftime lead disappear three minutes into the third quarter.

In the first round, Free State lost its halftime lead against Topeka Seaman and never recovered. This time, FSHS junior Adriana Jadlow answered with an and-one layup. Then freshman Madison Piper drained a three-pointer after the Salthawks turned the ball over on the inbounds pass. That was the start of an 11-3 Firebirds run for the remainder of the quarter.

“Our kids responded real well, got even more aggressive and really took care of the game on the defensive end,” FSHS coach Bryan Duncan said.

The run continued after Piper made one of two free throws, and Jadlow scored on a layup.

Hutchinson’s Jenna Higgins came back with a three-pointer, but senior Millie Shade countered with one of her own, giving FSHS a 38-30 lead heading into the fourth quarter.

Free State began the fourth quarter on a 7-0 run, with five points from senior Scout Wiebe, who

— Free State senior Scout Wiebe on the Firebirds’ 54-39 victory over Hutchinson at the Firebird Winter Classic swished a three-pointer and added two free throws.

“It was fun. It was awesome,” Piper said. “We actually played like a team this time.”

Hutchinson (7-6, ranked No. 10 in Class 6A) would never get closer than 11 points once it scored in the fourth quarter, as Wiebe drilled a jumper with 2:18 remaining and sophomore Hannah Walter hit two free throws down the stretch.

The Firebirds (6-7) shot 82 percent from the field after Hutchinson erased Free State’s halftime lead. “(Coach) Duncan was telling us that Hutchinson was a really good team, so it’s really good that we beat them,” said Wiebe, who fell just shy of a double-double with 13 points and nine rebounds. “I think it was the best game that we played this year, so it’s definitely confidence going into our next game.”

The Firebirds trailed by three points after the first quarter, but ended the first half on a 12-2 run. During that stretch, Piper scored six of her game-high 19 points on jump shots, including a mid-range bucket at the buzzer to give Free State a 24-17 lead.

lent,” Duncan said. “She scores for us, but today what I was most excited about was I thought she was an excellent defensive player and an excellent passer — maybe even more importantly, a leader. When she’s doing those things, we’re going to be really good.”

Piper, the physical 5-foot-10 forward who also had six rebounds, added: “It was just fun. I was just having fun out there and that’s when I play my best.”

Although the Firebirds couldn’t win their own tournament for the third straight year, they took plenty of positives out of it.

“It was really fun for us to get a chance to bounce back,” Duncan said. “We lost in the first round; hey, you’ve got to move on and keep playing, and we really competed today. We played today like it was a championship game.”

Free State will return to Sunflower League play Friday, facing Shawnee Mission Northwest at FSHS.

TEXAS 81, KANSAS 69

Longhorns’ Holland ‘outstanding’

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Austin, Texas — The most misleading number on the box score of Saturday’s 81-69 Texas victory against Kansas University revealed the point total for Longhorns guard Demarcus Holland, a 6-foot2 sophomore.

He scored four points.

More telling numbers as to his value: He had 11 rebounds, three assists

and two steals. The man he guarded, KU’s leading scorer, Andrew Wiggins scored seven points on 2-for-12 shooting.

“I knew my teammates would have my back,” Holland said of checking Wiggins. “I knew he would try to be aggressive and try to put fouls on me to get me out of the game. I knew he likes to crash the boards, so I tried to box him out every opportunity I got.”

And he knew the six inches he gave up to Wiggins weren’t that relevant.

“Cam Ridley and Prince Ebeh were scaring him so he started settling for jumpshots,” Holland said of teammates who had four blocked shots apiece among the Longhorns’ dozen blocks.

Holland paid Wiggins a compliment, calling him, “a very good player. He’s expected to be a lottery pick. He’s really skilled.

He’s a winner, so I respect him.”

Texas coach Rick Barnes’ face lit up every time someone asked him about Holland’s performance.

“He was outstanding,” Barnes said. “All year long, I’m not sure people appreciate what he’s done. I’m telling you, his teammates and our staff appreciate him. He does it every day. That’s how he practices every day.

Him coming up with offensive rebounds, getting those extra possessions at the times he did, that was great.”

Texas held Kansas to 23 first-half points, and Holland had as a big a hand in that as anybody.

He plays a role similar to that played for KU by Travis Releford in his final two seasons.

“I always like to be involved in the impact plays that are not in the

box scores all the time,” Holland said. “On good teams, you always have to have that guy who is always in the right spot, always trying to get an offensive rebound and trying to box out a key player, trying to contain a good player on another team. I think that’s what I do every game.”

He did it to near-perfection in helping his team to knock off the perennial Big 12 champion.

run the table in the Big 12, but he also said they outplayed us, simple as that,” said KU sophomore Brannen Greene, who had three points off 1-of-3 three-point shooting in 10 minutes.

“He said we are in Big 12 Conference play, it’s a quick turnaround, get ready for the next game.

That’s what we’re trying to do, focus on the next game.”

There were plenty of negatives to dwell upon Saturday. n Point guard Naadir Tharpe had three points off 1-of-4 shooting with three assists against two turnovers in 26 minutes.

He played just 11 minutes the second half to Frank Mason’s nine and didn’t play at all down the stretch. Mason had eight points off 3-of-8 shooting with two assists and a turnover in 16 minutes.

“Obviously, I will not throw anybody (under bus) ... there’s a reason he was not in the game late, because I felt he wasn’t impacting the game on either end,” Self said of Tharpe. “Naadir has played great for us. I felt we were better off having a guy in the game who could drive it and put pressure on the defense.

Frank did a pretty good job with that.”

Noted Tharpe: “At the end of the day, we know what we need to do on the court. I don’t feel we did it as a whole starting out with me. I don’t feel I played well at all. You will have games like that.

There are games you can play bad and win. We didn’t get any stops.”

KANSAS GUARD NAADIR THARPE MISSES GOING FOR A STEAL from Texas forward Jonathan Holmes during the first half.

“I felt like we didn’t come out with the mindset and focus like we usually did. I felt like we kind of just were giving them the game the whole time.” n Andrew Wiggins had seven points off 2-of-12 shooting with five rebounds in 30 minutes.

He missed his first nine shots.

“I think he settled a lot today,” Self said. “They played him smart and kept him out of the paint and made him shoot jumpers. When you don’t make jumpers, you can not look as good. It’s not just him, but Perry (Ellis, 11 points, two rebounds) or Naadir or Joel (Embiid, eight points, 10 rebounds), any of ’em. We didn’t get going at all in several of our starting spots. I thought Texas did a good job on Andrew.” n Embiid, who hit three of nine shots, had two blocks, three turnovers and two assists in 25 minutes.

Did his recent knee sprain have a negative effect on the 7-footer?

“I don’t think so,” Self said. “It may be sore. That didn’t have anything to do with anything.

“I thought our big guys played pretty soft,” Self added. “I thought they may have surprised us a little bit with their athletic ability. We didn’t do a good job of playing physical and attacking the rim like we should.” n KU’s shooting as a team was abysmal. KU hit its first four shots, then went 4-for-27 the rest of the first half. KU finished at 25.8 percent for that half in lagging, 38-23, at the break and hit 38.5 percent for the game. KU hit six of 14 threes to Texas’ three of 10.

“We played pretty well first seven games of league play,” Self said. “We shot 50 percent in every game or close (49.2 percent at Iowa State; over 50 in all others). The law of per-

centages will prevail eventually. When you go on the road, you are not guaranteed to shoot 50 percent or even 40 percent.

“The way to win on the road is make sure your opponent plays bad. We did not have the mindset going into the game maybe because we didn’t anticipate having to play that way,” Self said, adding that he felt Texas was a hungrier team than the Jayhawks, partly because of being energized by the home crowd.

The Longhorns used a 20-6 run to stretch an 1815 lead to 38-21 and basically take away all drama in this one. Isaiah Taylor had 23 points off 7-of-14 shooting, while Jonathan Holmes had 22 off sixof-13 shooting with three blocks and three steals.

Prince Ibeh had four blocks for UT. “I felt we didn’t compete that hard. That’s what happens,” Ellis said.

“We didn’t come with a

lot of energy and that’s the result.”

“We were on our heels the whole time. They were more prepared to play than we were. They looked fresher,” Self said.

“They were faster than us. The whole deal was ... does their speed offset our length? It did. Taylor was by far the best player in the game. Holmes had a fabulous game. They protected the rim. Their big guys played much better than our big guys.”

As a result ... “it was a dominating performance by the Longhorns over us today,” Self said. “We never put ourselves in position to put any game pressure on them.”

And that, he said, was disappointing.

“I thought we would play better. I certainly knew Texas would play well. We can come down here and play well and lose, that’s our league and that’s every time you play. We didn’t give ourselves the best chance and certainly Texas had a ton to do with that.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY GUARD NAADIR THARPE ELEVATES BUT CAN’T FIND AN OUTLET as he is defended by Texas center Cameron Ridley during the second half of the Jayhawks’ 81-69 loss to Texas on Saturday in Austin, Texas.

NOTEBOOK

KU’s Selden: ‘We came out real flat’

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Austin, Texas — Wayne Selden did his best to offer an explanation for previously league undefeated Kansas University’s double-digit loss to Texas on Saturday afternoon in Erwin Center.

“It’s a mind-set. We came out real flat. We came out dull. We didn’t play Kansas basketball.

We weren’t focused,” the freshman guard said after scoring a team-high 21 points off 8-of-16 shooting in an 81-69 loss that dropped KU to 7-1 in Big 12 play, compared to UT’s 6-2 mark.

“We didn’t compete.

We didn’t play.”

Why? That is the question.

“It’s a long season. We might have gotten caught up (in all the positive things people have been saying),” Selden said.

KU hit just eight of 31 first-half shots and finished the game at 38.5 percent.

“We were trying to get shots. We weren’t making shots. It happens,” sophomore Perry Ellis said after hitting four of nine shots and scoring 11 points.

KANSAS COACH BILL SELF SCRATCHES HIS HEAD during a Texas run during the second half.

“We have to make up for that on the defensive end.

We didn’t do that.”

Asked if Texas, which had 12 blocks, surprised the Jayhawks, Ellis said: “I wouldn’t say surprise.

It’s just ... it happens. We have to come prepared next time. We have to fight each game.” l

Black plays: KU senior Tarik Black, who had missed the last two games because of a sprained ankle, scored two points

with two boards and a steal in six minutes.

Freshman Conner Frankamp missed his second straight game because of a knee bruise.

“He hasn’t practiced,” Self said. “He’ll be able to play some Tuesday (at Baylor, 6 p.m.). l

that stretches a red carpet reserved for the national media all the way to the tarmac of Kansas City International Airport and back — constantly are reminded by such circumstances of how special they are.

That’s a lot of poison, but for the most part they have had the discipline to avoid it.

But it can’t be easy, which is why periodic reminders that diving all over the court for loose balls can mean more than special talent can refocus a team.

Texas did that for 40 minutes, Kansas for 20.

Consider the Jayhawks reminded.

They don’t need a reminder that national rankings for high school players mean nothing.

They aren’t the ones doing the ranking, just the ones ranked. But this cer-

“I really think that’s the dumbest thing fans have done. You just beat a team that’s no good?”

Barnes said. “I’ve never understood that. Kansas is not overrated. Why would you chant that?” l

This, that: Texas has won four straight games against ranked teams for the first time in school history. Earlier this year,

KU also won four in a row versus ranked teams. Prior to that, North Carolina (1997) was the last to accomplish that feat. ... KU had its longest win streak of the season snapped at seven. ... KU had won five in a row vs. Texas. ... Bill Self is 12-8 all-time against UT (12-6 while at KU) ... The loss marked KU’s first Big 12 doubledigit defeat in the regular season since an 81-58 loss at Baylor last season. ...

KU’s 20-point deficit in the second half marked its largest this season and the most since trailing by 18 at Florida. ... The 15-point halftime deficit tied KU’s largest of the season (15 at Florida). It also marked the biggest halftime deficit against a conference opponent since trailing, 45-29, at Oklahoma State on Feb. 27, 2010. ... KU began the game 4-for-4 from the field and closed the first half 4-for-27. The 8-for-31 (25.8 percent) is KU’s lowest in a conference half this season.

KU’s previous conference low for a half was 44.0 (at Oklahoma). ...

KU’s 38.5 shooting percentage (25-for-65) was the second-lowest of the season (San Diego State,

29.8 percent). ... Texas out-blocked the Jayhawks 12-4. The 12 blocks are the most in a conference game since Texas tallied the same amount on Feb. 8, 2010 and the secondmost overall (13, Kentucky, 11/15/11). ... UT’s 30 free throws were the most by an opponent this season (29 vs. Oklahoma). ... KU tied a season-low with its 13 makes from the free-throw line. l

Individual notes: Brannen Greene hit a threepointer for the fifth straight game. ... After back-to-back career-highscoring efforts, Andrew Wiggins went 0-for-9 from the floor before hitting his first shot with 12:06 remaining. He finished 2-for-12 with seven points before fouling out for the first time in his career. ... Joel Embiid, who had two blocks, has 56 blocks, passing Darrell Arthur (54) for second on the all-time freshman blocks list, trailing only Eric Chenowith (62, 1998). Embiid now has a block in 15-straight games. ... Jamari Traylor grabbed six rebounds, his third six-board effort of the conference season.

As is so often the case on the road, whether it be Kansas carrying suitcases or a Big 12 underdog visiting Allen Fieldhouse, it felt as if more whistles went the way of the home team. When that happens to young teams, it makes them more prepared for the next time it does.

Kansas 70, Texas Tech 62 Lubbock, Texas — Kansas University junior forward Chelsea Gardner scored a career-high 34 points and added 12 rebounds to lead the KU women’s basketball team over Texas Tech, 70-62, on Saturday at United S p i r i t Arena.

Seven of Gardn e r ’ s points came in the final 2:18 as the JayGardner hawks (1111 overall, 4-6 Big 12) held off the Red Raiders (6-15, 0-10).

Amber Battle led Texas Tech with 19 points, 10 rebounds and four assists.

Kansas made 18 of its 33 shots (54.5 percent) in the first half to lead Texas Tech at halftime, 41-28. KU closed the period with a 9-1 run, which included two three-pointers by junior guard Natalie Knight. Gardner had a season-high 23 first-half points for Kansas, going 11-of-13 from the field.

The Jayhawks began the second half with a 7-0 run to take a 20-point lead, 48-28, with 16:30 left. The Red Raiders responded with 11 straight points to pull within single digits with just under 13 minutes remaining. Texas Tech eventually cut Kansas’ lead to three, 57-54, at 7:25. The Jayhawks closed out the game by limiting the Red Raiders’ offense — no field goals from 4:58 to 1:10 — and dominating on the boards (19-6) and at the free-throw line (92) in the final seven minutes.

Knight finished with 14 points, seven rebounds and three assists. Senior guard CeCe Harper contributed 11 points, nine assists, five rebounds and four steals. Gardner topped her previous career high of 30 points, set earlier this season against Texas Southern.

The Jayhawks will face Oklahoma State on Wednesday night in Stillwater, Okla.

Super CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Against him is Seattle’s quick-footed, quickwitted scrambler Russell Wilson, who represents the new guard along with the likes of Robert Griffin III, Colin Kaepernick, Cam Newton, even Andrew Luck.

Seattle’s miserly defense wants to force Manning into uncomfortable territory, which means anywhere outside the passing pocket. Denver’s defense will be intent on giving Wilson a taste of claustrophobia by keeping him hemmed in the pocket.

Both QB approaches work for their offenses, or else these two teams wouldn’t each be 15-3, top seeds in their conferences and facing off for the championship. The quarterback differences — aside from age, time of service in the pros, or even their height — Manning is about 15 centimeters (6 inches) taller than Wilson — make this Super Bowl even more intriguing.

There will always be a place in anyone’s starting lineup for a Peyton Manning, who deserves strong consideration in the debate about the greatest quarterback in history, regardless of whether he adds a second Super Bowl ring today.

Teams construct their offense around a talent like that.

Whether most teams will stick with convention or choose mobile, creative and elusive passers such as Wilson won’t be decided by who wins at the Meadowlands. But it could play a significant role.

“As a talent evaluator for college and even free agency, the toughest thing to evaluate is process,” Broncos quarterbacks coach Greg Knapp said. “Can the guy process in the pocket during the heat of battle?”

CHARITY WORKERS CARRY A MAN who was wounded from a gun shot on a stretcher to an ambulance following clashes between anti and pro-government groups in Bangkok, Thailand, Saturday.

Thailand prepares for national election after violent protests Bangkok (ap) — Thailand braced for tense nationwide elections Sunday, a day after gun battles broke out at a busy Bangkok intersection between government supporters and protesters trying to derail the polls by blocking the delivery of ballots to voting stations.

At least seven people were wounded in Saturday’s clashes, including an American photojournalist who was grazed by a bullet in the leg.

People caught up in the mayhem crouched behind cars and ducked on a pedestrian bridge while others fled inside a nearby shopping mall. Several masked gunmen wearing armored vests bent down under an overpass as one of them fired a weapon

concealed in a green sack.

The exchange of fire was the latest flare-up in a monthslong campaign by protesters to overthrow Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s beleaguered government, which they accuse of corruption. The turmoil raises the prospect of more violence Sunday, when polls open for an electoral contest that has devolved into a battle of wills between the government and protesters — and those caught between who insist on their right to vote.

Protesters say they plan to fill the streets of the Thai capital and prevent voters from reaching polling stations.

The conflict pits demonstrators who say they want to suspend the coun-

try’s fragile democracy to institute anti-corruption reforms against Yingluck’s supporters and would-be voters who know the election will do little to solve the nation’s crisis but insist the right to vote should not be taken away.

The protesters are demanding the government be replaced by an unelected council that would rewrite political and electoral laws to combat deep-seated problems of corruption and money politics. Yingluck has refused to step down, arguing she is open to reform and such a council would be unconstitutional.

Since protests began late last year, at least 10 people have been killed and nearly 600 wounded.

Afghanistan’s first presidential race to begin election in April Kabul, Afghanistan (ap) — The posters are printed. The rallies are organized. A televised debate is planned.

Campaign season for Afghanistan’s presidential election kicks off Sunday, and the stakes are high for the 11 candidates vying to succeed President Hamid Karzai and oversee the final chapter in a NATO-led combat mission.

The April 5 vote is a pivotal moment in Afghanistan’s history, its outcome seen as makeor-break for the country’s future and key to the level

of foreign involvement here after nearly 13 years of war. Billions of dollars in funds are tied to the government’s holding a free and fair election — the first independent vote organized by Afghanistan without direct foreign assistance.

Amid a surge in violence from the Taliban ahead of the NATO combat troop withdrawal at the end of the year, the poll also will be a crucial test of whether Afghanistan can ensure a stable transition. And the West will be watching the vote as means of gauging the

success of its efforts to foster democracy and bolster security over the past 12 years.

“If the result is so contested that the new government lacks all legitimacy and authority, if the election is so manifestly rigged and corrupt that it destroys the willingness of the U.S. even more than is happening already to go on funding Afghanistan, then indeed you can see the setup that we have created going to pieces,” said Anatol Lieven, a professor in the War Studies Department at King’s College in Britain.

BRIEFLY encouraging such Russia slams west’s ally actions.” support of opposition “What does incitement Munich — Russia’s foreign minister slammed Western support of Ukraine’s opposition, suggesting Saturday that it is helping fuel the escalation of violence.

Ukraine has faced two months of major protests that started after President Viktor Yanukovych backed off an agreement to deepen ties with the European Union in favor of relations with Moscow.

The protests had been mostly peaceful until midJanuary, when demonstrators angered by new anti-protest laws launched violent clashes with police.

Three protesters died in the clashes, two of them from gunshot wounds.

Police insist they didn’t fire the fatal shots.

At a gathering of the world’s top diplomats and defense officials in Munich, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov took issue with what he said were “prominent European politicians actu-

of increasingly violent street protests have to do with promoting democracy?” Lavrov said. “Why don’t we hear condemnations of those who seize and hold government buildings, burn, torch the police, use racist and anti-Semitic and Nazi slogans?”

UN pushes for return to Syria talks

10 for more meetings with the Western-backed opposition as suggested by mediator Lakhdar Brahimi.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told a conference of global security officials in Munich that he urged Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry at a meeting on the sidelines “to use their influence to ensure the talks proceed as scheduled on Feb. 10.”

The U.S. has insisted that Assad cannot be part of a transitional government, while Russia has been a key ally of Assad’s government.

Speaking to reporters on his return to Damascus, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem said his delegation was “ready” and waiting for an invitation to return to Switzerland.

Damascus, Syria — The United Nations’ secretarygeneral pressed the U.S. and Russia to help ensure that peace talks aimed at stemming Syria’s civil war can soon resume, while Russia’s foreign minister said Saturday that it was “very difficult” to push Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government to Indonesia volcano make concessions.

at least 733 Iraqis were killed during violence in January, even when leaving out casualties from an embattled western province.

The figures issued Saturday by the U.N.’s mission to Iraq show 618 civilians and 115 members of the security forces were killed in January.

But the UNAMI statement excluded deaths from ongoing fighting in Anbar, due to problems in verifying the “status of those killed.” The figures also leave out insurgent deaths.

Also, the U.N. said at least 1,229 Iraqis were wounded in attacks across the country last month.

Baghdad was the worst affected province, with 297 killed and 585 wounded.

Among the dead on Mount Sinabung were a local television journalist and four high-school students and their teacher who were visiting the mountain to see the eruptions up close, said National Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho. At least three other people were injured, and authorities feared the death toll would rise.

Sinabung in western Sumatra has been erupting for four months, sending lava and searing gas and rocks rolling down its southern slopes. Authorities had evacuated more than 30,000 people, housing them in cramped tents, schools and public buildings.

Ousted leader’s trial resumes in Egypt Cairo — A lawyer for Egypt’s ousted president on Saturday told a Cairo court that it lacked jurisdiction to try Mohammed Morsi, saying the Islamist leader remained Egypt’s legitimate president because there has been no official decree removing him from office.

The hearing, the third since the trial opened in November, was held amid continuing militant attacks and a relentless crackdown on Morsi’s supporters, expanding those targeted to include Islamists who use social media against the military-backed government.

The claims by Morsi’s lawyer, the Islamist Mohammed Salim el-Awah, came as the trial of the ousted leader and 14 others on charges of inciting the killing of protesters in 2012 resumed amid tight security in a makeshift courtroom in the national police academy in an eastern Cairo suburb.

The

OSCARS Awarding the best, worst and weirdest achievements in film

In the spirit of awards season, and after some serious reflection on the past year in films, I’d like to present my own particularly dubious set of awards: the Alternative Oscars, if you will.

This list was partially to recognize the extreme highs and lows of 2013, and to point out some of the remarkable (and dubious) achievements that Oscar just doesn’t have a category for. And the winners are … (Warning: Some light spoilers ahead.)

The “Argo” Award for True Stories with Wholly Invented Climaxes — “Philomena” wins this award because the big, cathartic showdown with Steve Coogan and Judi Dench at the end of the movie never took place. The nun in question had already been dead for nine years before the search for Philomena’s son ever began.

Most Gratuitous Gore for No Reason — “Gangster Squad,” which features Sean Penn drawing and quartering a man between two cars.

A painfully awkward ‘romantic comedy’

T

hat obligatory February rom-com, the Japanese Film Festival, and ‘Blazing Saddles’ As most of the Oscarnominated movies hang around in theaters hoping to catch filmgoers who are checking off their awards lists, Hollywood’s annual early-year counterprogramming has begun.

Hoping to fill the “edgy” rom-com void a couple of weeks before Valentine’s Day is “That Awkward Moment,” a movie that’s supposed to appeal to men as much as it is to women.

This phony-baloney R-rated comedy stars two guys coming off of career-making 2013 performances — Miles Teller (“The Spectacular Now”) and Michael B. Jordan (“Fruitvale Station”) — so my hopes were high.

But “That Awkward Moment” is neither a raunchy laugh riot or a tender heartbreaker.

Instead, it’s sandwiched somewhere quite uncomfortably in the middle — where most of the behavior that’s meant to be funny is just plain scuzzy.

The problems start with that staple of the modern romantic comedy: the completely contrived central conceit. Teller, along with his Manhattan roommate and work buddy Zac Efron, make a pact to keep lots women in their “stable” while never committing to one of them.

One-night stands, latenight booty calls, using a wingman — all of these things are encouraged.

But if the woman questions where the relationship is headed, that’s their cue to head for the nearest exit.

Of course, the reason for this is so their friend Jordan, recently separated from his wife, won’t feel left out. It’s so they can continue scamming on chicks just like the old days, until he finds someone new that makes him happy. What sensitive guys, right?

But, uh oh, each of them already has someone who makes them happy — and they were right under their noses the whole time.

SCENE STEALERS

ERIC MELIN

eric@scene-stealers.com “That Awkward Moment” — a title that could apply to the 90 percent of the time that its jokes fell flat — has the gall to call itself “A Tom Gormican Film.” It’s the writer/director’s first feature-length effort, so he doesn’t exactly have the cache of say, a Nora Ephron or Cameron Crowe. If this film is any indication, though, we’ll have a steady stream of movies that force likable actors to be jerks while they practice fast-paced comic banter laced inappropriately with unfunny pop-culture references.

At least Teller is suited to this style already, but Efron especially seems like he’s just trying to keep up.

Speaking of awkward, there isn’t one moment

in this movie that feels real. When the big thirdact breakup arrives as expected, the reason for it is so heartless and cruel that you’re hoping the couple in question doesn’t get back together.

Anyone that would stick to their guns and treat someone that bad for the sake of a stupid pact like this has probably seen too many of these insipid “romantic comedies.”

And no last-minute speech in front of a crowd could make up for it, especially not one as corny and hollow as the one Efron delivers here.

thing that he does with much frequency.

The 2014 Japanese Film Festival opens at 11 a.m. next Sunday with the decidedly adult anime psychological thriller “Perfect Blue,” which has grown in cult stature since its 1997

release. Where else can you find a J-pop singer, a serial killer, a serious blurring of reality, and a critique of Japan’s consumerist culture, all mixed together in a Hitchcockian stew?

Akira Kurosawa’s Tolstoy-inspired 1952 drama “Ikiru” also screens at the festival, a movie Roger Ebert called the director’s “greatest film.”

Closing out the festival is the notorious 2000 adaptation of “Battle Royale,” which still holds tremendous shock value today — it’s still banned in Germany — and predates “The Hunger Games” series by over a decade.

Why the comparison?

Well, it’s about a government that forces middleschool students to play a deadly game of killor-be-killed on a remote island in order to quell the increasing power of young people. And it ain’t PG-13.

Single tickets are $7.50, all-day passes are $20, and can be purchased here. Proceeds for the 2014 Japanese Film Festival go to the Taylor Anderson Memorial Fund to benefit schools who are still rebuilding from the 2011 tsunami.

2014 Japanese Film Festival The Heartland Japan Exchange and Teaching Alumni Association is hosting a quartet of impressive classic and contemporary Japanese films at the Alamo Drafthouse on Feb. 9. Among them is the little-screened post-apocalyptic anime fantasy “Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind,” directed by master filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki. After six decades of acclaimed work and another Oscar nomination for his latest movie “The Wind Rises,” the 73-year-old Miyazaki has once again rescinded his latest announcement of his retirement, some-

Thursday.

What’s crazy about viewing this 1974 anything-goes comedy in a contemporary setting is how little of it would actually make it to the screen in today’s cultural environment. Forty years after its release, “Blazing Saddles” seems more subversive than ever, not just with it’s whackedout anachronisms, but with its matter-of-fact attitude toward racism and willingness to mine it for as many jokes as possible. Seeing this one with a crowd ought to be a true experience.

Outside perspective sparks creativity

O

ur photo staff spent last week looking at photographs of naked bicyclists, a roller coaster partially submerged in the Atlantic Ocean, New Jersey governor Chris Christie impersonating Elvis, and a traffic jam in Fort Lee. Does some of this sound familiar?

The New Jersey Press Association asked our photo staff to judge its state’s newspaper photography contest for 2013. Ten photo categories, including, sports and portraits, comprising about 1,000 photographs, were reviewed. While looking at the images, I couldn’t help but be reminded of Dorothy’s famous line, “Toto, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.”

Here’s a few comparisons of popular Garden State vs. Sunflower State photo contest material: l Beach scene vs. wheat harvest l Princeton lacrosse vs. Kansas University basketball l Hurricane devastation vs. tornado destruction It was refreshing to see different subject matter photographed by peers.

How would I photograph naked bicyclists for our paper? Carefully, probably. Is it even possible to take an interesting photograph of a traffic jam?

I asked these questions as our staff compared the work of other photojournalists as they documented common and uncommon subjects. Photographing the same events, subjects and scenes that you are typically exposed to can make you calloused to a routine, stuck in a rut

Books E.L. Doctorow and the life of the mind Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com l Sunday, February 2, 2014

By Hillel Italie

Associated Press

New York — E.L. Doctorow has different ways of telling a story.

He sometimes writes because he’s asked to — perhaps a commencement address for Brandeis University, a review for Joe Avery, musician and carpenter, The New York Times of a Harriet Beecher Stowe biLawrence “‘The Nature of Personal ography or reflections on the U.S. Constitution, as Reality’ requested by the Pennsyl(by Jane Roberts).” vania Humanities Council.

Doctorow’s novels, from “Ragtime” and “Loon Lake” to the new release, “Andrew’s Brain,” begin more mysteriously.

“I discovered Einstein said the same thing about his celebrated theories of relativity that writers say about their work when he said he didn’t have any feelings of personal possession of these ideas.

Once they were out there, they came from somewhere else,” Doctorow, John Musgrave, 83, said during a recent retired, interview at his office Baldwin City “The Story of Dr. Wassell’ in downtown Manhattan, where he is a faculty (by James Hilton).” member at New York University.

“And that’s exactly the feeling when you write.

You don’t feel possessive about it. You’ve discovered something. You didn’t do it, you discovered it, even if it’s you that have been writing it.”

“Andrew’s Brain” is an invention of the mind and about the mind, the follies and revelations of a middle-aged cognitive science professor who mingles with the famous — or so he says — makes a tragedy of his personal Hailey Rubin, life, worries about the student, world and thinks often Lawrence about why he thinks. “‘Ender’s Game’ Doctorow began the (by Orson Scott Card).” book with two random images.

“The first of a child, a little girl, drawing with her colored pencils, and then an adult sees what she’s doing and she takes a pencil and scribbles over what she’s been drawing so carefully. I don’t know why that particular image impressed me so,” Doctorow says.

“And then I put it together with a memory I had of a man I worked for many years ago, as a reader for a motion picJaclyn Cordes, ture company, a decent, nanny, wonderful man. He said Baldwin City “‘The King’s Deception’ (by Steve Berry).”

New Yorker writer Rebecca Mead first read George Eliot’s “Middlemarch” at age 17, when she was an ambitious schoolgirl studying for entrance exams to Oxford. She recalls identifying “completely” with the novel’s earnest heroine, Dorothea Brooke, and Dorothea’s yearning for a “more significant existence.”

Over the years Mead returned to Eliot’s masterpiece for more inspiration and guidance, rereading the 850-page novel at roughly five-year intervals. “This book, which had been published serially in eight volumes almost a hundred years before I was born, wasn’t distant or dusty, but ar-

he had murdered his infant child by feeding it the wrong medicine, an infant with an eyedropper. And he had done this, and he was what I would call an inadvertent agent of disaster.”

Andrew’s wife has left him after the death of their child, and he has fallen in love with a student less than half his age. Structured like a rambling confession, the life of a mind, the narrative shifts between third and first person, past and present, the everyday and the improbable.

The difference between nonfiction and fiction is, for Doctorow, the difference between control and surrender.

He finds himself following his literary characters, wondering what they’ll

up next. Andrew’s travels include a house in suburban New Rochelle (Doctorow’s former residency, and the primary setting for “Ragtime”), a Pennsylvania farm where a little girl defaces her drawing and an interlude in Washington, D.C., with a president who very much resembles George W. Bush.

The new novel also takes on the ongoing debates about science versus literature and humans versus machines. Doctorow is a partisan, with a point of view he made clear last fall during his acceptance speech at the National Book Awards ceremony, where he was presented an honorary prize.

Doctorow, the very image of a reflective man with his high forehead

cated much of his talk to technology and its potential threats to privacy and creative freedom. During his recent interview, a Dell computer on his desk, Doctorow notes that while researching “Andrew’s Brain” he read about scientists attempting to solve the ancient riddle of human thought.

“If we ever find out how the brain works, with all its complexity, then we will be able to build a machine that has consciousness,” Doctorow says. “And if that happens, that is a road to planetary disaster, because everything we’ve thought about ourselves, since the Bronze Age, the Bible, all of that will be gone.”

BOOK REVIEW

By Ann Levin

BEST-SELLERS

resting in the acuteness of its psychological penetration,” she writes.

“Through it, George Eliot spoke with an authority and a generosity that was wise and essential and profound. I couldn’t believe how good it was.

And I couldn’t believe how relevant and urgent it felt.”

In 2011, Mead wrote about this love of hers for The New Yorker, and now that essay has grown into a book, “My Life in Middlemarch.” It’s partly a memoir — Mead describes her early life growing up in provincial England (like Eliot), aspiring to “metropolitan pre-eminence” (like

Eliot) and eventually becoming a successful journalist and writer (like Eliot).

It’s also a minibiography of the great Victorian writer, who was born Mary Ann Evans but adopted a male pen name to distinguish her work from what she called “silly novels by lady novelists.”

Mead is particularly interested in Eliot’s scandalous relationship with the married critic George Henry Lewes, with whom she lived for more than 20 years, helping to raise his three sons. Again, Mead

sees a parallel to her own life for she, too, set up house with a man with three sons, although unlike Eliot and Lewes, they married and had a child together.

“My Life in Middlemarch” has a third major theme as well — the enduring power of literature. “Reading is sometimes thought of as a form of escapism, and it’s a common turn of phrase to speak of getting lost in a book,” Mead writes.

“But a book can also be where one finds oneself; and when a reader is grasped and held by a book, reading does not feel like an escape from life so much as it feels like an urgent, crucial dimension of life itself.”

Anyone who agrees with that sentiment is likely to enjoy this engaging book.

New York — Kate DiCamillo’s “Flora & Ulysses,” a comic superhero tale featuring a deadly vacuum cleaner and a mighty squirrel, has won the John Newbery Medal for the year’s best DiCamillo work of children’s literature. Brian Floca won the Randolph Caldecott Medal for his illustrations in “Locomotive,” a story of the early years of train travel that Floca also wrote.

The awards, the most prestigious in children’s publishing, were announced last week by the American Library Association. DiCamillo, a popular and acclaimed author, won the Newbery a decade ago for “The Tales of Despereaux.” The Library of Congress recently named her National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature.

A native of Philadelphia who now lives in Minneapolis, the 49-year-old DiCamillo said the book’s origins date back a few years. Her mother was dying and worried what would happen to her vacuum cleaner, which the author ended up inheriting. Around the same time, she noticed an ailing squirrel on her property and was appalled when a friend suggested she whack the squirrel with a shovel and kill it.

“I started thinking about ways I could save the squirrel’s life,” DiCamillo said.

In-laws play favorites with children Dear Annie: I am beyond speechless at some of the things my husband’s parents say and do, and yet he lets all of this roll off his back.

My in-laws often treat my husband’s brother and kids to vacations to which we and our kids are not invited. Then they show us the photos and brag about all the fun they had. I can hardly stand to be in the same room while this is going on, but my husband smiles and asks questions about the trip.

My own parents would never dream of doing something for one child that they would not offer to the other. They always have been very fair. To see such lopsided treatment is foreign to me.

The truly confounding thing is that my husband is the responsible son. He lives to pro-

vide for his family. His brother is irresponsible and a spendthrift and yet seems to be rewarded by his parents.

Outwardly, my husband acts like this doesn’t bother him, but I know deep down the slights have to hurt.

Our children are also old enough and smart enough to see the difference in treatment between them and their cousins. My New Year’s resolution is to enjoy the people who

More to the Super Bowl than a game Don’t accuse me of not caring about Super Bowl XLVIII (5:30 p.m., Fox). I mean, how can you not get excited about a TV spectacle where a Doritos commercial is considered a high point?

Having grown up just a (slightly ambitious) seven-mile Schwinn bike ride from the site of the game, I guess I have some kind of local pride for that special section of New Jersey, that landfill of opportunity.

I hope the big Super Bowl blimp’s camera offers a glimpse of Rutt’s Hut, a hot dog restaurant located in nearby Clifton. It serves a special breed of frankfurter there.

The short order cook boils — or rather, scalds — it in hot oil until it bursts open. The hot dog isn’t called “the ripper” for nothing!

I’m also hoping the blimp cam casts a glance over at American Dream Meadowlands. Only a mile from the stadium, it’s an empty retail and entertainment complex that used to be called Meadowlands Xanadu.

I guess I’m rooting for the blimp cam to wander about and take in all of my old North Jersey haunts: Nutley, Lyndhurst, Garfield, Carlstadt, Wallington, Moonachie. There’s poetry in those names. Somewhere. And anything’s better than enduring the halftime show.

The Zooey Deschanel sitcom “New Girl” (9:30 p.m., Fox, time approximate due to football) gets the coveted post-Super Bowl slot. In tonight’s episode, the gang gets invited to a party at the home of Prince.

Tonight’s other highlights

Scheduled on “60 Minutes” (6 p.m., CBS): profiles of a young inventor, a juvenile chess prodigy and a child philanthropist.

Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand star in the 2010 comedy sequel “Little Fockers” (8 p.m., NBC).

Rose’s plans for Robert’s birthday party raise eyebrows on “Downton Abbey” on “Masterpiece Classic” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings).

Sherlock identifies his true nemesis on the finale of “Sherlock” on “Masterpiece Mystery!” (9 p.m., PBS, check local listings).

Matt mulls a tempting offer on “Episodes” (9:30 p.m., Showtime).

BIRTHDAYS Actress Elaine Stritch is 89.

Rock singer-guitarist Graham Nash is 72. Actor Jack McGee is 65. Actor Michael Talbott is 59. Actor-comedian Adam Ferrara is 48. Singer Shakira is 37.

Actor Rich Sommer is 36. Actress Zosia Mamet is 26.

truly want to spend time with our family and not permit the others to steal my joy. Am I right? — Missouri Mom Dear Missouri: Of course you should not allow others to “steal your joy.” But please keep your husband’s feelings foremost when dealing with his family members. We don’t deny that this behavior is hurtful, but he has chosen to deal with it by turning the other cheek. This is a forgiving attitude, and it allows him to have a relationship with his family, which he obviously wants. If you turn this into your crusade, criticizing his family and pushing him to be more upset by it, you are not helping. Instead, shower him with the praise and gratitude his parents deny him so he knows how much he

Dear Annie: We recently attended a play.

There was a lady seated behind our group who coughed during the entire performance and never once covered her mouth. As to be expected, our son was ill a few days later. Please tell me whether there is a solution to this problem. — M.P. Dear M.P.: If only there were a solution to rudeness. If you notice someone hacking up a lung behind you, it is OK to turn around and ask to please cover their mouths. You cannot, however, force them to do this. Your remaining choice is to notify an usher of the disturbance and change seats.
