While many of his classmates are planning spring break vacations to Florida or other warmer climes, Free State High School senior Alex Houston is about to embark on a much different trip.

Starting today, Houston will fly to Ushuaia, Argentina, and then travel by icebreaker to Antarctica for a two-week international expedition.

“Yeah, this is a little bit different than what most seniors generally go for on a spring break trip,” Houston said.

Houston, the son of Peter Houston and Mary Morningstar, was selected for the trip by the Boy Scouts of America and will be the only Scout from the United States to take part in the expedition.

The project is being led

by Sir Robert Swan, a polar explorer and founder

of the group 2041, which is dedicated to environmental education and preservation of the Antarctic wilderness.

“It’s a really big conservation group that works specifically in Antarctica, trying to

Topeka — Kansas legislators are finished considering new legal protections this year for those who oppose gay marriage on religious grounds but will debate the issue in 2015, the state Senate’s top leader said Thursday.

Senate President Susan Wagle said she wasn’t persuaded by testimony during the Senate Judiciary Committee’s hearing Thursday on existing religious liberties protections in the state constitution and in Kansas’ laws to have senators draft Wagle an alternative to the “religious freedom” measure that passed the House last month and received national criticism from businesses and gay rights groups.

The committee heard conflicting testimony from lawyers and legal scholars about whether Kansas already has enough legal protections for individuals, groups

State leaders anxiously await school finance decision

By Scott Rothschild and Peter Hancock srothschild@ljworld.com phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — School officials throughout Kansas, not to mention state legislators and Gov. Sam Brownback, are anxiously awaiting a decision this morning by the Kansas Supreme Court in the school finance lawsuit, Gannon v. Kansas.

Few people dared to guess

on Thursday what the decision might be. But the announcement of the pending decision sparked a new round of political jousting.

Democrats said Republican Gov. Sam Brownback and the GOP-led COURTS Legislature will likely now have to face the consequences of their cuts to state income tax rates and business taxes.

tricts, parents and students alleging the Kansas Legislature has failed to meet its constitutional duty to “make suitable provision for finance” of public schools in the state.

In January 2013, a three-judge panel ruled largely in favor of the plaintiffs and ordered the state to increase state funding by more than $500 million per year.

Both the state and the plaintiffs appealed that ruling.

Plaintiffs argued that the trial

“Because of the governor’s misguided income tax cuts for the Koch brothers, either we’ll have to go raid the transportation fund to pay for any short -term finance of schools, or the Legislature will thumb its nose at the Supreme Court. We’ll see what happens,” said state Sen. Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City.

The long-awaited decision is expected to be announced around 9:30 a.m. The case was filed by several school dis-

The state, meanwhile, argued that determining the amount of money spent on public schools is a political decision that should be left to the Legislature.

The court’s ruling today will come after Kansas lawmakers have already passed the midpoint of their 2014 legislative session.

religious liberties. She said the House bill is too flawed to fix.

“This is a huge a topic, and this is something that every word has to be right,” Wagle said after sitting in on the committee hearing as a nonmember.

Several attorneys and legal scholars bolstered gay-rights advocates’ arguments, saying Kansas already provides ample legal protections against government fines or private lawsuits to state residents who act on their religious beliefs against gay marriage.

Tom Witt, executive director of Equality Kansas, the state’s leading gay-rights group, said lawmakers should consider expanding state anti-discrimination laws to cover sexual orientation and gender identity if they’re going to discuss religious liberties protections for gay-marriage opponents.

“I will work with the proponents on a compromise bill,” Witt said after the hearing. “The other side has to be willing to come part way.”

But Helen Alvare, a George Mason University law professor, testified that legislators should enact new religious liberties protections now because, “the wreckage of state laws on marriage is all around us.”

Robert Noland, executive director of the conservative Kansas Family Policy Council, said it’s “profoundly frustrating” to suspend the debate until next year.

“We’re going to be making sure that our grassroots know about this, and we’ll be encouraging people to communicate with the committee as well and see if they can change that,” Noland said.

for continued environmental protection.

“So we’re doing a lot of projects working on preserving species there, or working on scientific explorations, but a lot of it is just getting to travel around the area and getting to experience what it has to offer,” he said.

While there, he said, he’ll keep a daily journal, shoot a lot of photographs and, he hopes, post to a blog about the expedition.

Most of the time will be spent near the coast, along the Antarctic Peninsula, which juts out toward the tip of South America.

“Since it’s the end of summer there right now, the weather isn’t too bad right now, hopefully,” he said. “We’re kind of based off the boats, so we’re mainly sticking to the coast. I think there are a couple days where we have the opportunity to camp or spend the night on the continent, but we’re mainly sticking around the peninsula.”

Houston said he’s been active in scouting since first grade, when he joined the Cub Scouts.

He graduated into Boy Scouts in fifth grade, eventually rising to the level of Eagle Scout, and he remains active in the organization today.

This summer, after high school graduation, Houston will get the chance to spend time in a more balmy climate.

He said he was recently notified that he’s been accepted to work this summer at the Boy Scouts’ Sea Base in the Florida Keys, one of BSA’s “high adventure” programs that includes aquatic programs.

Notre Dame provost praises KU for its legacy of excellence

By Elliot Hughes ehughes@ljworld.com

Notre Dame Provost Thomas Burish received the 1949 Award from Kansas University’s clinical psychology program Thursday, which recognizes distinguished alumni.

For his acceptance of the award, Burish delivered a 40-minute speech on the im-

portant role of flagship universities in front of an audience of 50 people in the Kansas Union ballroom.

Burish is the inaugural winner of the 1949 Award, which Burish also honors the year the clinical psychology

program in the Department of Psychology received accreditation.

In his speech, Burish quoted historical figures such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Vannevar Bush to describe flagship universities as being “disproportionately responsible for educating the people of this country,� especially in the 19th century as higher educa-

tion accessibility increased.

Burish described KU as an institution that has carried that responsibility from its beginnings. To back the claim, he pointed to KU’s membership with the prestigious Association of American Universities and its tally of Rhodes Scholars — more than “all the other colleges and universities in the state combined� — among other examples.

“In a demonstrative way, KU represents the best of Kansas and its citizens and enables them to achieve their dreams,�

Burish said.

For KU to remain an important institution, Burish said, it needs to focus change on two areas: digital education and globalization.

Deadline extended for plans that don’t fit health care law

By Giles Bruce gbruce@ljworld.com

The Kansas Insurance Department has given the OK to insurers in the state that they can continue to renew health insurance policies that don’t meet the requirements of the Affordable Care Act a day after President Obama extended the deadline until October 2016.

As of Jan. 1, many insurance policies no longer met the law’s criteria of providing a certain base level of benefits, causing them to be canceled.

After many Americans complained, the Obama administration in No-

vember pushed back the deadline until October 2014. He added another two years this week.

“We still have concerns about the delay and the potential long-term effects on the health insurance market, but the department will Praeger give our companies and consumers the flexibility to work through the ACA changes,” Kansas insurance commissioner Sandy Praeger said in

a statement Thursday announcing the decision. “Earlier, the department and the companies believed it was in the best interest to phase out noncompliant ACA plans at the end of 2014, but with the new announcement we acknowledge the administration’s decision and will comply with the flexibility provided under the extension.”

Under the policy, insurers will be able to renew certain “non-grandfathered” plans — those with substandard benefits issued between March 23, Special to the Journal-World 2010, and Jan. 1, 2014 — PAULA BARR, A SECOND-GRADE TEACHER AT QUAIL RUN SCHOOL, center, was named the through Oct. 1, 2016.

Man charged on counts of Teacher indecent liberties with a child

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

A Eudora man, 43, was charged Thursday with multiple counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child for incidents involving three alleged victims in 2012.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office arrested the man Wednesday afternoon on a warrant at his home in Eudora. He made his first appearance in Douglas County District Court via a remote video feed Thursday from Douglas County Jail, where he is being held on a $50,000 bond.

The man is charged

with three felony counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child for offenses alleged to have occurred between COURTS Jan. 1, 2012, and Nov. 21, 2012, and involving three alleged victims.

In the state’s complaint against the man, he is accused of engaging in “lewd fondling or touching” of three children, each aged 9 or 10 at the time of the alleged incidents.

According to the state

praised Barr’s work.

“Paula is by far the most dedicated, enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher with whom I have had the opportunity to teach,” Glendening said. “It is amazing to see the beehive of activity in her classroom. The P.E. teacher told me once that her kids don’t want to stop what they are doing in her class to go to gym.”

Barr now teaches in a “blended” classroom, which combines online learning, small-group activity and traditional teacher-led instruction.

In court Thursday, Assistant District Attorney Mark Simpson said the man also had a conviction for contempt of court in Haskell County in 2001.

If convicted, the man faces sentences of between 25 years to life imprisonment for each of the counts.

I remember thinking, ‘I’m the only person in the universe sitting in a dark room in France remembering Idaho.’”

— Marilynne Robinson, author of “Housekeeping”

novel’s genesis; the beautiful, unrecognized landscape of the Northwest where she grew up; religious connotations written into the pages of all of her books; and graces she finds in life’s common moments. She also gave a short reading from the novel.

She is known to share with readers glimpses of the holy and the sacred everywhere in our lives.

“Housekeeping” was born from small pieces of the book stored in a dining room drawer of her home. It wasn’t until she moved to France to teach that she found time to sit down and write in a countryside farmhouse with big windows that children would run up to and tap on like she was in an aquarium.

“I found this distracting so I went into an old room and I closed the shutters and doors,” Robinson said. “I had this wobbly bedside lamp and a spiral notebook and pen. And I started writing, pick-

ing up from the place of these metaphors.”

Isolated in a dark room, she stirred up images from her childhood and set to work.

“I remember thinking, ‘I’m the only person in the universe sitting in a dark room in France remembering Idaho,’” Robinson said to the crowd erupting in laughter.

Robinson said she recognized her writing style was unlike anything she had seen written about before and felt it was a disadvantage. The agent who received the manuscript from a writer friend of hers (sent without Robinson’s knowledge) told her it would be hard to publish, but she would represent it. An editor told her it wouldn’t get any reviews, but she’d publish it.

“Then I got a big review in the New York Times that said, ‘No one else is going to review this, but I am,’” Robinson said. “So I’ve had a

charmed life, and that’s how the book came to be.”

“Housekeeping” was published in 1980, nominated for a Pulitzer Prize and won the Hemingway Foundation/PEN Award for best first novel. It’s a story about loss, hope, love and family ties as it follows the narrative of two sisters raised in the small, imaginary town of Fingerbone, Idaho.

Barr has been an elementary teacher for 32 years, including the last nine years at Quail Run. She previously taught at Kennedy and Hillcrest schools in Lawrence, but she spent her first 13 years in the Shawnee Mission district in Johnson County.

For most of her career, she taught first grade but switched to second grade about six years ago, and she described that as a bigger change than most people think.

Each year, the district names an elementary and secondary teacher of the

year. Kelly Hart, an English teacher at South Middle School, received the secondary teacher award on Tuesday.

The award comes with a $1,000 check from Truity Credit Union of Lawrence, one of the district’s Lawrence Education Achievement Partners.

Both Barr and Hart will be nominated for the Kansas State Teacher of the Year award, which will be announced next year.

BRIEFLY Man guilty in Woman in 1983 Junction City death murders released Topeka — A northeast Kansas man has been found guilty of killing a woman to keep her from providing information to federal law enforcement officers about his involvement in drug trafficking.

The U.S. attorney’s office says a federal jury on Thursday convicted Marcus D. Roberson, 32, of Junction City, of murder, conspiracy to distribute crack cocaine and conspiracy to distribute powder cocaine.

Prosecutors say Roberson lured Crystal Fisher, 25, to a location near an alley in Junction City and shot her four times at close range. Her body was found in her vehicle and the murder weapon was found in a pond behind a Junction City Wal-Mart.

Roberson faces up to life in prison on the murder and drug counts and a $10 million fine on each of the drug counts.

Hutchinson — Three decades after teaming up with her minister to murder their spouses in a criminal case that sparked a popular television miniseries, Lorna Anderson has been released from state supervision.

Anderson, 61, ended parole Feb. 17, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported.

She was released from prison in 2007 and most recently had been under supervision in Reno County, according to the Kansas Department of Corrections website.

Lutheran minister Tom Bird killed his wife, Sandra Bird, in July 1983, then pushed her car over an embankment near Emporia and placed her body in the car, authorities said.

Brownback issued a statement, reiterating his proposal to provide state funding for all-day kindergarten, which he said “is long overdue and a true path forward.”

State Sen. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, said she believed those critical of the Kansas Supreme Court will use an adverse decision against the state to increase attempts to weaken the court.

House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, who is running for governor, said a discussion of increased funding to schools as the Legislature passed the midpoint of the 2014 session was “long overdue.”

Edgerton — A northeast Kansas sheriff is alerting the public to a hoax phone call demanding ransom to spare the life of a loved one.

The Johnson County Sheriff’s Office says deputies were contacted this week by a resident who was on the phone with someone claiming to be holding the resident’s brother hostage.

Authorities said the caller claimed the brother would be killed unless the resident immediately wired $2,000. The money was to pay for damage supposedly caused by the brother in an accident.

THE ARGUMENTS The plaintiffs: The Kansas Legislature has failed to meet its constitutional duty to “make suitable provision for finance” of public schools in the state. kids with a world-class public education is both a moral and constitutional obligation, which is why I offered a plan two years ago to restore school funding. Gov. Brownback rejected it, causing class sizes to grow and fees on parents to increase,” Davis said.

Senate President Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, and Sen. Steve Abrams, R-Arkansas City, who is chairman of the Senate Education Committee, said they were glad the decision was going to be handed down.

sion, before our budget is passed,” Wagle said.

Wagle said the Legislature needs to analyze the decision carefully before responding to it.

“It’s important to us that we do what’s right for Kansas kids and Kansas schools, and I’m very thankful that they are sending it out tomorrow while we are still here,” she said.

Abrams said the ruling “is a big, big event.”

Abrams said he wished that the decision had come down earlier in the legislative session.

In 2005, the court ruled in an earlier case, Montoy v. Kansas, that

the state had failed to provide suitable funding and ordered the Legislature to increase funding by at least $853 million a year over the following three years. After a bitter special session that summer, lawmakers eventually complied with that ruling, but the state began cutting back on school funding in the wake of the Great Recession that began in fiscal year 2009.

Those cutbacks prompted the plaintiffs to return to court in 2010 with the Gannon lawsuit.

The suit challenges the state’s “base state aid per pupil” formula, which is the basis for setting each district’s general fund budget, as well as state aid for capital outlay and local option budgets.

District attorney warns of Medicare telephone scam

By Stephen Montemayor smontemayor@ljworld.com

Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson warned residents Thursday of scam phone calls from people identifying themselves as representatives of home medical equipment and supply companies asking for Medicare insurance numbers and other personal information.

According to a news release, Lawrence Memorial Hospital contacted Branson’s office about complaints from multiple patients who said they received unsolicited phone calls from home medical equipment and medical supply companies and that the companies asked for Medicare insurance numbers, doctor’s

names and other personal information.

The office called the questions a red flag because there is no need for a company to request this information from a patient when a physician arranges home health care equipment or supplies. The release also recommended not sharing information such as date of birth, driver’s license number, credit card number, Social Security number or insurance information with unsolicited callers.

Those who think they may have been a victim of a Medicare scam are asked to call the U.S. Department of Health and Human Service at (800) 4478477. Those who think they are victims of identity theft because of a Medicare scam are urged to call their local police department to file a report.

Realism should drive Ukraine policy

EDITORIALS

Bus snafu Cold-weather bus problems were compounded this week by ineffective communication to the families affected by delays.

S

chool children stranded in sub-zero temperatures waiting on buses that have been delayed by cold weather problems is simply unacceptable.

The situation that occurred Monday morning on eight bus routes in the Lawrence school district indicates a need to review both the bus company’s responsibility to make sure its buses are running and the responsibility of the company and/or the school district to notify parents when problems occur.

According to a representative for the district’s bus operator, First Student, eight buses failed to start Monday morning because cold weather had caused diesel fuel in their engines to “gel up.” Those buses were scheduled to pick up about 400 children and, although the company dispatched other buses to help cover the routes, some pickups were delayed by as much as 25 minutes. Fortunately, some parents were able to take matters into their own hands by waiting with their children in heated cars or taking their own children — and others who were waiting outside — to school before the buses arrived.

The first responsibility here lies with the bus company, which had told school officials that buses could be running Monday morning. That should have meant they were taking whatever special measures are necessary to make sure the buses would start — even in sub-zero weather.

Once it became apparent that eight buses could not be started, both the district and the bus company had a responsibility to notify parents in a timely manner. First Student apparently made some attempts to notify parents, but the effort wasn’t effective. If such a situation arises again, the district should step in and use its own resources to spread the word through its own social media contacts or local news media. If the district or bus company can’t target a communication just to the affected families, a general alert should go out warning everyone that some bus routes may experience delays.

Many neighboring school districts canceled classes Monday because of the frigid weather conditions. Lawrence’s decision to hold school was not unreasonable IF the buses had been operating as they should. However, it became very unreasonable when some buses not only weren’t running but families affected by that circumstance weren’t properly notified.

That’s a situation district officials should make sure doesn’t happen again.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel reportedly told President Obama on Sunday that Vladimir Putin was out of touch with reality. When it comes to Ukraine, however, it’s not just Putin who seems to be operating in a parallel universe. In Washington, this crisis is causing politicians from both parties to lose their grip.

I don’t just mean Republican hawks, who see an opportunity to bash Obama for foreign-policy weakness. Or Florida’s presidential hopeful, Sen. Marco Rubio, who opposed authorizing force in Syria and now claims Russia’s use of force in Crimea threatens to reverse “the hardfought gains of the Cold War.” Democrats, too, have joined the chorus. Hillary Clinton, another 2016 contender, has compared Putin’s aggres-

Finally, realism dictates that Putin’s invasion of Crimea put an end to illusions in the White House and Europe about a ‘partnership’ with the Russian leader.”

sion in Crimea to Adolf Hitler’s World War II advance into Czechoslovakia to “save” the Germans in the Sudetenland. On the pundit side, Adm. James Stavridis, a former NATO commander, has called for the military alliance to send forces into the Black Sea area and ready them for action.

Folks, although the Ukraine situation may show some similarities, this is not Cold War redux, nor does Putin, for all his thuggery, remotely resemble Hitler (or Stalin). Unless politicians on both sides of the aisle take a more coolheaded approach to the realities in Ukraine, and in Russia, they will make the situation worse.

Putin’s dreams of restoring Russia to superpower status are fantasy. Russia has become a middling power, with a declining population and a stagnant economy that has failed, under Putin, to modernize. Despite its educated population, its economy depends on high prices for gas and oil.

As more U.S. shale gas and oil come on line, and as more energy sources

expand worldwide, Russia will be in trouble. Its economic future depends on more integration with the West, not less.

Yes, Putin still has nukes and a large military, but he isn’t readying his troops to march through the Fulda Gap. Moscow and Washington don’t have missiles pointed at each other, or any deep ideological conflict (although it may sound like it).

Putin can only afford to threaten his weakest neighbors — like Ukraine, Georgia or perhaps Moldova — that he believes should be part of the Russian orbit. The Baltic nations, along with Central and Eastern European countries that were once part of the Warsaw Pact, are now part of NATO, which rules out any Russian invasion, however unlikely.

So Putin’s violation of Ukrainian sovereignty should be condemned, and a strong Western response is warranted, but this crisis should not be treated as a precursor of World War III. Rather, the immediate goal should be to prevent Putin from sending troops into eastern Ukraine, an area inhabited by many ethnic Russians. Putin indicated in a news conference Tuesday that he may already have gotten that message.

Sanctions targeted at key Russian individuals and businesses involved with corrupt behavior in Ukraine would reinforce the message, while the Obama administration tries to persuade European leaders, especially Merkel, to consider tougher sanctions on the Russian economy.

Again, realism is called for: Until the Europeans become less dependent on

Russian energy resources, they will be wary of taking too hard a stance against Putin. But Putin’s Ukraine adventure may start changing European minds.

A realistic approach would recognize that it may not be possible to evict the Russian troops that Putin just dispatched to Crimea, an autonomous part of Ukraine with a majority population of ethnic Russians. Russia has a treaty with Ukraine that will permit it to keep naval bases in Crimea for the next 28 years, and has long historic ties to the region.

Recall that during the 2008 Russian invasion of Georgia, on George W. Bush’s watch, Putin sent troops to autonomous areas within that country that still remain there. It is possible the same will happen in Ukraine. This makes it all the more important that Washington and the European Union beef up the government and economy of the rest of Ukraine, a country that has failed miserably to develop since it became independent in 1991.

Finally, realism dictates that Putin’s invasion of Crimea put an end to illusions in the White House and Europe about a “partnership” with the Russian leader. Cooperation with Putin may be possible where he deems it in Moscow’s interests — but that won’t be often.

This doesn’t mean another Cold War. Indeed, Putin may be the biggest loser if he isolates himself from prosperous Western nations. If he rejects reality, however, the West shouldn’t follow his lead.

U.S. toughness misdirected The Obama administration is showing it can be tough on foreign policy. Unfortunately, that toughness is not directed at Russia and its incursion into Crimea, but at Israel, America’s ally.

In an interview with President Obama, prior to the Washington arrival of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, Jeffrey Goldberg of Bloomberg.com writes that the president planned to tell Netanyahu “that his country could face a bleak future — one of international isolation and demographic disaster — if he refuses to endorse a U.S.-drafted framework agreement for peace with the Palestinians.” Goldberg adds, “Obama will warn Netanyahu that time is running out for Israel as a Jewish-majority democracy.”

“There is an existential threat to Israel,” Secretary of State John Kerry told the Saban Forum in December, “...that makes it impossible for Israel to preserve its future as a democratic, Jewish state without resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in a two-state solution.”

Scare tactic, or no?

There are two obvious flaws in this approach toward Israel. One is that the proposed peace plan cannot work without Palestinian-Israeli reciprocity. For decades, anti-Semitic pronouncements and propaganda have dominated radical Muslim thinking. Wars and terrorist attacks have been launched against Israel in hopes of ridding the region of any Jewish presence. In some Arab textbooks, in videos, in the Arab press and in

Cal Thomas tmseditors@tribune.com

fundamentalist Muslim sermons, the aim of radical Islamists is to wipe Israel off the map by whatever means necessary.

No entity that believes it has direct orders from God to kill those who do not believe as they do is going to anger God by making agreements with people they regard as infidels. The former president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, articulated the thinking of many Arabs and Muslims when he said in 2005 that Israel is a “tumor” and that a Palestinian state is just the “first step” toward Israel’s annihilation.

The other flaw in the administration’s thinking is the “demographic disaster” it claims Israel faces if it does not work to establish a Palestinian state.

According to data compiled by former Israeli diplomat Yoram Ettinger, drawn from the 2013 CIA World Factbook and other sources, the idea that Israel is being overwhelmed by an Arab population with a higher birth rate is incorrect.

Ettinger points to an article written by Rasha Abou Jalal, a Gaza journalist, who wrote: “While Islam calls for believers to bear many children and prohibits the use of birth control, new Pales-

tinian generations are defying tradition and leaning toward limiting the number of children they have.” Jalal credits, or blames, a desire among Palestinians to improve their lives.

A June 2012 study by the Washington-based Population Reference Bureau (PRB) supports Ettinger’s position.

It found that “Seventy-two percent of 15- to 49-year-old Palestinian married women prefer to avoid pregnancy, as do 78 percent in Morocco, 71 percent in Jordan, 69 percent in Egypt and Libya, 68 percent in Syria, 63 percent in Iraq and 61 percent in Yemen.”

Meanwhile, the birth rate among Israeli women has increased markedly. Ettinger writes of a “robust 66 percent Jewish majority in the combined area of Judea, Samaria and pre-1967 Israel.” By contrast, Jews were in the minority in earlier eras, comprising only 9 percent of that region’s population in 1900 and 39 percent in 1947. Since 2010, five nuclear scientists have been assassinated in Iran. Some believe Israel is somehow responsible, which, according to CBS News.com, prompted the Obama administration to send “strong signals” that the U.S. “did not want Israel to continue the assassinations.” Yet, the president has not taken sufficient action to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, which then could be used against Israel.

Which deadly outcome is the most egregious?

When it comes to Israel and Crimea, this administration has it backward.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 7, 1914: years “The long expectago ed advice from IN 1914 the Public Utilities Commission of the state on the purchase of the Lawrence Water Company’s property by the City of Lawrence appears today in the form of a report made by Engineer T. J. Strickler. Mr. Strickler was sent to Lawrence last Friday to investigate conditions here and to report his findings to the commission.... Following a rather lengthy summary of conditions and improvements that are needed, the engineer adds the one paragraph that is just now of vital interest. -- He recommends that the citizens at the election of Tuesday be instructed to vote to pay the Water Company the price of $197,500 for the property here. In coming to this conclusion the engineer points out that should the city decide to build a new plant it will cost more to substitute that part corresponding to the present plant that this property can be bought for. In view of this and other facts the engineer declares that he believes the price of $197,500 ‘reasonable.’”

“A system of school credit for vocational work done outside of school is to be given a trial in the city schools of Lawrence. Superintendent F. P. Smith has worked out a plan of credits and will inaugurate this in the schools in the immediate future. Under this plan practically every kind of work that children may do outside of school hours is included, both for boys and girls.”

— Sergei Shuvainikov, Ukrainian lawmaker said. “We are well beyond the days when borders can be redrawn over the heads of democratic leaders.”

Russian President Vladimir Putin was almost certainly behind Thursday’s dramatic developments, but it was not clear whether he is aiming for outright annexation, or simply strengthening his hand in talks with the West.

The EU also announced limited punitive measures against Putin’s government, including the sus-

pension of trade and visa talks.

“I am confident that we are moving forward together, united in our determination to oppose actions that violate international law and to support the government and people of Ukraine,” Obama said.

Crimea’s parliament rammed through what amounted to a declaration of independence from Ukraine, announcing it would let the Crimean people, 60 percent of whom are ethnic Russians, decide in a March 16 referendum whether they want to become part of their gigantic neighbor to the east.

“This is our response to the disorder and lawlessness in Kiev,” said lawmaker Sergei Shuvainikov.

“We will decide our future ourselves.”

BRIEFLY West opposed to division in Ukraine Washington — President Barack Obama ordered the West’s first sanctions in response to Russia’s military takeover of Crimea on Thursday, declaring his determination not to let the Kremlin carve up Ukraine. He asserted that a referendum on Crimea seceding and becoming part of Russia would violate international law.

European leaders announced their own measures but split over how forcefully to follow America’s lead.

Obama threatened further steps if Russia persists.

All signs pointed to a continuing diplomatic battle over Ukraine’s territorial integrity and what could prove a broader fault line in Europe’s post-Cold War order.

Underscoring his position to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Obama issued an executive action slapping new visa restrictions on Russian and other opponents of Ukraine’s government in Kiev and authorizing wider financial penalties against those involved in the military intervention or in stealing state assets.

General pleads guilty on 3 counts Fort Bragg, N.C. — In his immaculate blue dress uniform, Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair stood ramrod straight before a judge Thursday and pleaded guilty to three charges that could

breakup Thursday as lawmakers in Crimea unanimously declared they wanted to join Russia and would put the decision to voters in 10 days. President Barack Obama condemned the move and the West answered with the first real sanctions against Russia.

Speaking from the White House, Obama said any decisions on the future of Crimea, a pro-Russian area of Ukraine, must include the country’s new government.

“The proposed referendum on the future of Crimea would violate the constitution and violate international law,” Obama

send him to prison for up to 15 years.

It was an admission sure to end the military career of a man once regarded as a rising star among the U.S. Army’s small cadre of trusted battle commanders.

Sinclair, 51, still faces five other charges stemming from the claims of a female captain nearly 20 years his junior who says the general twice forced her to perform oral sex. But by pleading guilty to the lesser charges, Sinclair’s lawyers believe they will strengthen his case at trial by potentially limiting Sinclair some of the evidence prosecutors can present.

The former deputy commander of the 82nd Airborne could be sentenced to life in prison if convicted of the sexual assaults.

Self says Wiggins Big 12’s best

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University basketball coach Bill Self hopes freshman Andrew Wiggins will be named 2014 Big 12 Conference Player of the Year when the league reveals its annual award winners Sunday.

“I don’t think there’s a clear-cut guy,” Self said, beginning a discussion on which individual player deserves the league’s top honor.

“You can make a case for (Iowa State’s DeAndre) Kane. You can make a case for (ISU’s Melvin) Ejim. If you do that, you have two guys you make a case for Big 12 player of the year that haven’t had the same (team) success we’ve had.”

KU has a three-game lead over Oklahoma and Texas in the league race with one remaining. Iowa State is four back.

“To me, with our team 14-3 and the next best team 11-6, to me it’s almost a logical no-brainer,” Self added of Wiggins netting the award.

“I don’t believe his numbers blow anybody away. That’s not who he is. To be the best player on a team that’s had quite a bit of success in the league, I’d have a hard time going in any other direction, not that other players can’t play as well.

“If there’s no clear-cut choice, I really think the best player on the best team ... certainly that’s the case with him,” Self added.

Wiggins is 10th overall in the Big 12 in scoring (16.0 ppg) and 18th in rebounding (5.8 rpg). ISU’s Ejim leads the league in scoring at 18.4 ppg and is second in rebounding at 8.6 rpg. ISU’s Kane is seventh in scoring at 16.7 ppg and 11th in rebounding at 6.7 rpg.

“I don’t think his mindset has ever been to be a scorer, but his mind-set is to fit in,” Self said of Wiggins.

“To me, being aggressive enough to score that much when defenses would be designed to shut him down, I thought, would be hard to do. It hasn’t been.”

LAWRENCE HIGH’S JOHN BARBEE (22) HEADS TO THE BASKET despite a trio of Gardner-Edgerton defenders in the Lions’ 62-45 sub-state victory Thursday at LHS.

Lions battle mixed emotions

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Lawrence High’s boys basketball players were happy with their 62-45 victory over Gardner-Edgerton in the first round of Class 6A substate Thursday at LHS. They cherished it so much more after finding out one of their coaches is fighting for his life.

Lions coach Mike Lewis told his team after the game

that assistant coach Kermit Aldridge took a turn for the worse in his battle with cancer and was moved into hospice care.

“I know coach would have wanted us to go out there and play hard like we did,” sophomore Price Morgan said. “I know he would have been proud of us in the second half.

It’s just tough. Someone I’ve come so close to between football and basketball … he’s been

such a great mentor to me. I can’t say enough good things about him. It’s just real tough.”

Aldridge has coached at LHS the last four years and is the head junior-varsity coach.

He was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer last spring and has gone through ups and downs in his fight. He was able to attend an LHS home game on Feb. 21.

Loneker, FSHS advance

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Derby — Feeding the post and posting up. Spreading the floor and beating his man for easy buckets. Drawing fouls and making his free throws.

Soaring high for a rebound and rifling an outlet pass well past half-court to facilitate a teammate’s tomahawk dunk.

About the only things senior Keith Loneker didn’t do

Thursday night for Free State High in its 74-60 sub-state opening victory at Derby High were miss a shot from the field and blow out 18 birthday candles.

Making his 18th birthday a memorable one, Loneker demonstrated why basketball coaches everywhere spend so much energy screaming about making free throws and layups. He kept it simple, shot 10-for-10 from the field

and 9-for-11 from the line for a career-high 29 points.

Built like the college-bound linebacker that he is, the Baker University signee used a point guard’s vision, a quarterback’s passing accuracy, a linebacker’s brute force and a relentless desire to keep the season alive to dominate the game from start to finish.

And he had plenty of help Please see FSHS BOYS, page 3B

At no point this season have Kansas University women’s basketball players and coaches felt any lower than they did following their home loss to in-state rival Kansas State nine days ago. In a season full of selfinflicted setbacks, this one carried some shame with it, because the Jayhawks fell behind 21-0.

That same confounding start might actually have an upside, though, because KU BIG 12 gets a reOPENER match with the Wildcats Who: Kansas at 6 tonight (12-18) vs. in Oklahoma Kansas City, site State (11-18) of the Big 12 Tourna- When: 6 ment. Coach tonight B o n n i e Where: OklaHenrickson homa City thinks her TV: FCSC No. 8-seeded (WOW! ch.

J a y h a w k s 145) got a good draw in the No. 9 seed Wildcats. “(It’s) another shot at ’em and a chance to make up for a game that we got off to such a poor start,” she said.

“Plus, it’s a great opportunity for us to play another rivalry game in the tournament.”

Kansas (12-18) actually won on K-State’s home floor, 71-64, on Jan. 25, before losing eight of the next 10 games to end the regular season. Henrickson thinks the third meeting between the rival programs provides a unique opportunity.

“It’s two-fold, first of all, just the rivalry, and it’s the rubber match for this season after we both won on each other’s floors,” the coach said. “And then just the magnitude of the tournament. Somebody’s going home.”

The Wildcats (11-18) dropped four of their last five regular-season games, picking up their lone win at Kansas. With both teams skidding into the postseason, neither side has much momentum.

“The only positive thing is we played so poorly against K-State that it was nice to see we got off to a better start in the next two games,” Henrickson said.

Junior forward Chelsea Gardner leads KU with 16.6 points, 8.5 rebounds and 1.9 blocks a game this season.

K-State freshman guard Leticia Romero leads the Wildcats with 14.2 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.8 assists.

The Cuban defector who signed with the White Sox for six years and $68 million in October, connected for a two-run shot into Chicago’s bullpen in right field off Brad Penny in the fifth inning.

Abreu hit 30 or more home runs in three consecutive seasons in Cuba. He also hit .360 with six home runs in 25 atbats in the 2013 World Baseball Classic.

“It was a fastball outside, and I was able to put a very good swing on it,” Abreu said through an interpreter. “It was my best contact of the spring so far. ... I hit them all over the field. I hit the ball to all parts of the field. Today it was just an outside pitch, and I was able to put it that way.

“We have to sit together as a family and get through stuff like this,” said Lewis, who found out at 1:30 p.m. but decided to wait until after the game to inform both the players and other assistant coaches. “It’s not easy, and it takes everybody. It definitely will take the parents, the coaches and the players to stick together.

“The boys talked in the locker room that they want to use it as motivation, and that’s exactly what coach Aldridge would’ve wanted for us to do.”

from Firebirds teammates. Khadre Lane (12 points), Blake Winslow (10 points), Weston Hack (nine points) and Tristan Garber (eight points) made passes from Loneker count and played efficient defense, as did Reshawn Caro.

Asked if he could remember his previous career-high scoring total, Loneker said, “I don’t know. Probably 10.”

What got into him?

“It was my birthday,” he said. “Maybe a little birthday luck was with me.”

His postgame plans after the 21⁄2-hour bus ride back to Lawrence did not include any celebrating.

“I’m ready to sleep now,” he said. “We’ve got a game on Saturday. I’ve got to get ready for that one.”

The Lions (17-4, ranked No. 5 in 6A by the Kansas Basketball Coaches Association) struggled in the first half, but junior Anthony Bonner drilled a threepointer to spark an 11-0 run to end the third quarter.

They switched into a fullcourt press after Bonner’s three-pointer and forced five consecutive turnovers.

LHS scored on its final four possessions as junior Ben Rajewski tipped a steal to Bonner, who ran past the defense for a layup before sophomore Justin Roberts made layups on back-to-back possessions as he dribbled around defenders. Junior John Barbee capped the run with a steal and a powerful coast-to-coast dunk.

“We sputtered a little Wichita Southeast team playing on its home court for the 7 p.m. tipoff.

Loneker usually plays the role of facilitator for a team that does a good job of spreading around its scoring. In this one, multifaceted scoring threat Cole Moreano watched most of the game with an ice pack on his shoulder after it twice popped out of joint.

Even before knowing Moreano would not be available, the Firebirds (129) had an idea attacking the basket was the way to go.

“We came in looking to stick to our stuff, and we knew if we did that because of the matchups we would be pretty successful,” Loneker said.

“We came in looking to shoot layups, not as much shooting threes, because we knew we could get layups on them.”

Why? “Matchups,” Loneker said. “That’s what we do.

The coaches know who has the matchups to their advantage, and we look to expose them.”

Free State coach Chuck Law could not have been more pleased with his point guard. that because they put up numbers in games that don’t matter, because it helps their season stats.

In a situation like this when the game was in hand, it doesn’t matter to Andrew. I think that’s one thing that’s really cool about him.”

KANSAS WIDE-RECEIVERS COACH ERIC KIESAU MEETS with the media on Thursday before KU football’s first spring practice.

Kiesau’s challenge is significant given the recent struggles of KU’s wide receivers. But rather than dwelling on past ineptitude or worrying about his group’s poor reputation, Kiesau said he was eager to move forward with a “clean slate” for everybody and establish a foundation in the 14 remaining spring practices.

“The biggest thing right now is trust,” Kiesau said.

“They don’t know me, and I don’t know them. Everything that they’re hearing come out of my mouth will be a first for them. There’s not a honeymoon.”

Kiesau closed out those care-free days back in Hawaii with his family.

Now the 14-year college coaching veteran is doing exactly what he loves to do and is in a situation he feels good about.

“It’s pretty refreshing when you have a guy with coach Weis’ experience and the success he’s had to say, ‘You know what, I’m gonna let someone else do it,’” said Kiesau of Weis handing over the offense to others.

“I’ve worked with some big names in the past that could never do that.

I think that’s huge. He’s opening it up. He’s saying, ‘Hey guys, I’m open to new ideas, what are you gonna do?’

“I told him after Day One, ‘I don’t care if you call me the receivers coach, I don’t care if you call me the water boy, I just want to coach football.’”

Dear Annie: My wife and I have lost contact with our son. He is a recovering addict. As far as we know, he has maintained a job and, I hope, has been able to stay clean. He has moved to a city about four hours away with his new girlfriend, and I am sure she is keeping him in line.

My wife is heartbroken. We maintained a room for him in our home until he was almost 30 years old. He was always close to his mother, and they would speak on a daily basis.

Now, he doesn’t call or take our calls or emails, and never accepts cards or letters. He said he needed space when he left, and that was a year ago. My wife grieves as though he has passed, crying at night, wondering what happened to our son. What should

I do to relieve the pain?

Should we keep trying to contact him? We don’t understand how he can be so hurtful.

— Tears in Vermont Dear Tears: We are so sorry that your son has chosen to cut off contact, but you cannot force him to stay in touch. Are you in touch with the girlfriend? Is she a reliable partner, or might she be abusive? Even so, he is an adult, and you can only do so much without his

Dog rehab program too scripted I’d like to praise Cesar Millan, not bury him in a mediocre review. But how many dog rehabilitations can one person watch? Nat Geo Wild launches the celebrity dog trainer’s newest series “Cesar 911” (9 p.m.).

To say it resembles “Dog Whisperer” or the more recent “Cesar Millan’s Leader of the Pack” is an understatement.

As always, we start out with a dog gone wild. Or rather, a pet under the care of a human family who has contributed to the miserable mutt’s insecurities, encouraging it to lash out, nip, snarl and bite.

In a newish twist, a friend or a neighbor of the defective dog owners calls upon Millan and asks for his intervention. The first “informant” claims to represent an entire neighborhood and network of friends who have grown tired of watching a nervous, angry dog bite everyone in sight. The community consensus calls for the petulant pet to be put down.

For the dog, at least, things can only go up from there.

The strangest aspect of “Cesar 911” is how accepting and matter-of-fact such perfect strangers behave when Millan and his camera crew arrive.

We’re told that the pet owners had no idea he was coming. So it’s a little odd how they suddenly surrender their normal private life to the necessities of television production. It’s like, “Oh, hi! It’s Cesar Millan. Come on in! Turn your cameras on our living room! Take over our life! It’s all for the dog (that we were about to put down) after all!”

If you believe all of this is natural, unscripted, uncoached behavior, perhaps you should go looking for true love on “The Bachelor.” ‘‘Cesar 911” is not so much a television show, but an infomercial -- for Cesar Millan. And if the show is to be believed, he may be bounding up your front steps at any moment!

In the meantime, please consider counseling. You are grieving and worried, and you need to move forward so your son’s absence doesn’t become the focus of your daily life.

It will not be easy. But we recommend that you keep sending your son emails and cards, just saying that you love him and that you will always be available should he decide to contact you. We hope he will. Soon.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Friday, March 7: This year you wonder how you could change a domestic matter to make it more rewarding. You also might opt for a change of location or a possible variation in the usage of your home. If you are single, you could get into a live-in situation too quickly. If you are attached, keep the lines of communication open.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Monetary confusion will force excellent communication.

Underneath the issue could lie a power play. Tonight: TGIF! Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++ Be aware of what you have to offer. If you have an opportunity to clear up a problem with ease, do. Tonight: Say “yes.”

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ You might feel uncomfortable around someone who is a controlling force. Realize that you have the same trait. Tonight: Go along with a suggestion.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++ Your instincts might encourage you to assume a lowprofile. A boss could become more unpredictable. Tonight: Your plans must not be in the public realm.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ You could be drained by what is happening. You can’t change someone else, so consider detaching. Tonight: Head out once you feel free and clear of work.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) +++ You might be asked to take charge. Resist getting into a disagreement. Tonight: Note all the attention that you receive.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ Someone’s unpredictability could trigger your frustration.

Know that your feelings probably have more to do with the past.

Tonight: Go for unique.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ++++ Let others make the first move. Your creativity might be triggered by an unexpected event.

Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) +++ Your sense of duty does not permit you to run out the door carefree. Tonight: Make sure you get some form of exercise.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) +++++ Your spunkiness comes through, no matter what you do. You have a tendency toward not-so-nice comments. Tonight: Join friends for a fun happening.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) +++ Stay focused on what you must do. Your sense of humor will come through, which could help you let off some steam. Tonight: Play it easy.

Among existing homes,36 units sold in January, essentially unchanged from the same period last year. The average sale price of existing homes was $168,122. This represents a decrease of 22.2% from the January 2013 average price of $216,119.

A total of 57 contracts for sale were written in January 2014, down from 65 in January 2013.This is a decrease of 12.3%. Contracts written during the month reflect, in part, sales that will close in the near future.

According to Susan Bonham, 2014 President of the Lawrence Board of REALTORS®, “We’re delighted to see more positive news! We’ve experienced another increase in home sales for January 2014. The forecast suggests that this trend will likely continue throughout the 2014 spring selling season. However, we are concerned by the continued lack of inventory. The reduction in the number of contracts written could very well be attributed

to decrease in the number of homes available.”

Lawrence has approximately 320 resale homes on the market compared to 380 at this time last year, down 15%. The current level is off 30% from two years ago when Lawrence had 460 resale homes on the market going into the spring of 2012.

As Bonham notes, “Buyers have fewer homes to choose from. If you’ve been waiting for a great time to sell your home, now is the time. I cannot emphasize this point enough.

Contact a local REALTOR® today and talk about putting your home on the market. When you consider how our economy is impacted by politics, world affairs, the stock markets and the value of the dollar, you just don’t know what the market might be like next spring.”
