After life-saving weight loss, Lawrence man is still getting comfortable with his new body

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @GilesBruce

Robert Walls used to worry about whether he was going to wake up the next morning. But on a recent day, his main concern was how his hair looked.

That’s why he found himself in a barber’s chair in Lawrence, getting a fade, shooting the breeze. He was to appear on the Fox affiliate in Kansas City the next day; after his most recent TV spots, friends had told him he was looking a little shaggy.

Walls is used to trimming down — just on a much greater scale.

Over the past five-plus years, he has shed more than 750 pounds, about the equivalent of four average-sized men.

The 33-year-old has been getting a lot of media attention lately, after a chance encounter with a customer at the Lawrence restaurant where he worked. Nancy Wilson,

That message is this: He lost a lot of weight, sure, but there’s nothing glamorous about it. At his heaviest, he was confined to a nursing home, a 20-something watching his elderly roommates being carted away in body bags. He got gastric bypass

The idea of superfast broadband service — on par with what Google Fiber is building in Kansas City — is starting to pick up momentum at Lawrence City Hall.

Higher education caucus re-formed

By Scott Rothschild Twitter: @ljwrothschild

Topeka — About two dozen legislators representing a wide spectrum of political positions met Tuesday to re-form a caucus aimed at advancing higher education.

Speaking to the group, Kansas Board of Regents Chairman Fred Logan said legislators of all political stripes could support higher education because it affects educational excellence, workforce improvement and economic development.

“This is an opportunity that includes everybody: conservatives, liberals, moderates, both parties,” Logan said. He said that is unlike the issue of funding public schools. “Finding common ground in K-12 is much more difficult,” he said.

Legislators said the higher education caucus was needed to provide information as legislators moved forward working the budgets of public universities, community colleges and technical colleges.

Budget CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

“This is a good way to get information, ask questions and have an ongoing dialogue,” said state Rep. Julie Menghini, D-Pittsburg.

State Rep. Don Hineman, R-Dighton, said he was concerned that because of the scarcity of revenue, each institution of higher education was fighting for its part of the budget at the expense of the entire system.

“Seems like that is amplified this year,” Hineman said.

Logan said it would be “incredibly stupid” for one regents university to do something at the expense of another, although he conceded, “there is a lot of nervousness out there.”

A higher education caucus has existed in some past legislative sessions, but there wasn’t one last year when universities were cut. Cuts to KU totaled $13.5 million.

health education building at the KU Medical Center.

Last week, KU officials said the medical school could have faced accreditation problems if it didn’t get started soon on constructing the new building because its current facility is outdated.

But on Monday, KU announced it was re-accredited for eight years.

The accrediting body did cite the need for a new facility and said the school must show progress by August 2015.

Masterson said that gives officials time to come up with a plan of action. But Gray-Little said the project must be further advanced.

“The point that we’ve been making is that in 2015, a plan that says we are still looking for funds to do something is not a very convincing plan.

So we need to be further down the road,” she said.

State Sen. Tom Arpke, R-Salina, said KU has enough in internal funds to build the health education building. He cited a report that showed KU would receive $1.17 billion from various revenue sources this fiscal year, and is expected to spend $986 million. That leaves $184 million to cover other expenses, he said.

But Gray-Little said no university is expected to spend down its revenue to zero each year, and it is common practice to have some funds in reserves.

And according to KU, the Lawrence campus has $3.7 million in reserve funds, while KU Medical Center has no reserves.

R-Andover, said Kelly’s comments were “unusually inflammatory,” adding, “I don’t think it’s a fair assessment.”

The measure next goes to the full Senate.

Counselor: Lawmakers should heed court ruling

Play ball

Baker Wetland project begins this week

By Chad Lawhorn

By Peter Hancock

clawhorn@ljworld.com

phancock@ljword.com

What has been debated and litigated for decades will come to be this week: Construction crews will begin building the South Lawrence Trafficway through the Baker Wetlands.

Construction work on the wetland portion of the $130 million roadway will begin by the end of this week, officials with the Kansas Department of Transportation announced Tuesday.

A federal permit will give crews 365 days to complete the work in the environmentally sensitive wetlands.

“All the necessary precautions will be taken at the worksite, given the environmental concerns of the area,” said Kimberly Qualls, a spokeswoman with KDOT. The damage the trafficway would do to the wetlands — which are between Haskell Avenue and Louisiana Street, along 31st Street — has been a major point of contention in lawsuits and protests that have delayed the road project by more than two decades.

But on Tuesday, one of the trafficway’s chief opponents said he knew of no organized protests that were planned this week, although he said he wouldn’t be surprised if a few individuals choose to do so.

But Mike Caron, a member of the Wetlands Preservation Organization, said he was focusing his efforts on trying to get the state to make additional improvements — such as wildlife tunnels — that will make it easier for animals to cross the highway.

“Bad things happen in life, and you have to try to make the best of them,” Caron said. “The old saw of making lemonade out of lemons applies here.”

Topeka — Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt urged state lawmakers Tuesday to heed the Supreme Court’s school finance ruling, saying the surest way to resolve at least part of the case is to restore full funding of certain aid to poor school districts.

“My counsel would be, find a way, between Schmidt now and July 1, before you go home, to provide that equalization aid,” Schmidt told the House Appropriations Committee.

Earlier this month, the Kansas Supreme Court upheld part of a lower court decision, saying the Legislature had violated the Kansas Constitution when it cut funding that goes to subsidize the capital outlay budgets and local option budgets of lower-wealth districts.

The state currently funds only about 78 percent of the LOB equalization aid, which means the state has to distribute that money on a prorated basis and districts receive only a portion of what they’re entitled to. The Kansas State Department of Education says current funding is about $104 million short of what it should be.

In Lawrence, that amounts to about $1 million a year, a relatively small amount because Lawrence has relatively high property valuation for the number of students it has. But the poorer a school district is, the more it gets short-changed, resulting in, what the court agreed, are wealth-based disparities that violate the

Huelskamp’s ticket prize considered felony by county district attorney

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

An email sent by U.S. Rep. Tim Huelskamp offering a chance at winning NCAA Basketball Tournament tickets in exchange for campaign contributions was a felony violation, according to Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson.

Branson wrote to Huelskamp, a Huelskamp Republican from Hutchinson, Tuesday to express concern about an email purportedly sent from Huelskamp offering entry into a random drawing for tickets to the Branson first weekend of the NCAA Tournament in St. Louis, where Kansas University, Kansas State and Wichita State all will play.

County in blanket burn ban

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Douglas County issued a burn ban Tuesday that will stay in place for the next month, yet still allow some opportunity for burning pasture at safe times.

Prompted by an unusually high number of out-of-control grass fires in recent weeks, the ban is unlike any the county has ever issued, County Administrator Craig Weinaug said.

The blanket ban will remain in effect until April 16. During that time, the county will rely on the National Weather Service’s Rangeland Fire Danger Forecast — which is updated frequently — to indicate periods when it is safe to burn.

Burning will be prohibited any time the Rangeland Fire Danger is listed as very high or extreme, or when a Red Flag Warning is issued. Outside of those times, burning will be allowed but Weinaug urged residents to do so with caution.

Landowners wishing to burn pasture are urged to call their local township fire departments to let them know, as a precaution.

“Because it’s been so cold, the normal spring vegetation hasn’t started up yet to mix in with all the dry fuel on the ground,” Weinaug said. “And when it gets very, very windy, any fire that’s set has danger of getting out of hand.”

How can residents find out when they can burn and when they can’t? There are three options. l Find the Rangeland Fire

Danger Forecast online at crh. noaa.gov/top. In the left column under Forecasts, click on ‘Fire Weather.’ On the next page beneath the maps, click on ‘Rangeland Fire Danger Index’ and find the report for Douglas County. l Call Douglas County emergency dispatch at 8430250. l Call your local township fire department.

Weinaug said that while the ban is “somewhat complicated,” it’s hoped to keep people and property safe while still allowing the agricultural community to burn pasture — but only at times when conditions are appropriate.

The following are prohibited under the burn ban: careless use and disposal of smoking materials, open fires, campfires and the burning of fence rows, fields, ravines, trash or debris. Fires in permanent stoves, fireplaces or barbecue grills at homes or in developed recreational sites are OK. Firefighters had already responded to multiple fire calls Tuesday morning before Nancy Thellman, chairwoman of the Board of County Commissioners, approved the ban, according to Douglas County Emergency Management.

The board is expected to vote to formally extend the ban through April 16 during its meeting Wednesday night.

On Tuesday, Huelskamp made light of the KU-Kansas State rivalry, adding that he refused ‘to be intimidated by a Lawrence attorney likely still reeling from the 31-10 football blowout this fall and the 85-82 overtime victory by the Wildcats just last month.’ resident inquired about an email offering the the chance to win tickets in exchange for a payment of at least $10. According to the letter written by Branson, the email provided a deadline and said that the winner would be determined at random.

“This office receives such inquiries from time to time and our answer is always the same,” Branson wrote. “Such contests are illegal lotteries under Kansas law. … The three elements of an illegal lottery are consideration, a prize and the winner of the prize is determined by chance.”

Clint Baes, a spokesman for the Kansas attorney general, confirmed receiving Branson’s letter but said the office had no further comment Tuesday.

Huelskamp campaign spokesman Josh Bell produced a written statement Tuesday that claimed Branson “is misusing his official office in (an) attempt to score cheap political points.”

The statement clarified that the opportunity to receive four tickets to watch the teams play in St. Louis did not require a contribution, citing a second email sent Tuesday

by Huelskamp. Tuesday’s email called all contributions voluntary, a statement not included in Monday’s email announcing the contest.

Responding to Huelkamp’s initial email, Branson said operating such a lottery is a felony under state law. Branson asked Huelskamp to immediately tell recipients any Please see EMAIL, page 4A

Museum makes Freedom sites list Quilter Marla Jackson’s African American Museum and Textile Academy will be added to the National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom Program, network leaders decided this month.

Jackson, whose studio and the museum are at 2001 Haskell Ave. inside Independence Inc., is known for her art quilts, particularly Jackson those reflecting African-American history.

Through her Textile Academy, Jackson teaches students research, design, textile dyeing and sewing to tell stories through quilts. One of Jackson’s latest quilts, which students helped create, is titled “Still We Rise” and highlights the role black people played in Quantrill’s Raid and the border war that surrounded it.

Deanda Johnson, Midwest regional coordinator for Network to Freedom, said Jackson’s work gets youth interested in the Underground Railroad.

“The program is also a creative example of project-based learning, which is recognized as one of the most effective means of educating for various learning styles and abilities,” Johnson said in an email. “It also results in beautiful works of art which stand on their own, showing the abilities of students to not only understand the history of the Underground Railroad, but present this information to the public.”

In an announcement about the listing, Jackson said of her program: “The process demonstrates the power of art to heal and strengthen

The Network to Freedom program coordinates preservation and education efforts nationwide and integrates local historical places, museums and interpretive programs associated with the Underground Railroad.

The database includes more than 500 sites, programs and facilities, said Diane Miller, national program coordinator. Jackson’s was one of 23 new listings added this week.

Being listed makes the program eligible for grant funding, when available, Miller said. Grants are awarded through a separate competitive process.

Group launches TV ad praising governor

By John Hanna Associated Press

T opeka — A group supporting Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback launched a television ad Tuesday noting the state’s relatively low unemployment rate and touting the Republican inBrownback cumbent for having a plan to invest in education.

The 30-second spot

from Road Map Solutions isn’t formally an ad for Brownback’s reelection this year because the group is separate from his campaign, and the ad doesn’t ask viewers to vote for the governor. But it portrays Brownback positively as it discusses the economy and education — areas where he’s been aggressively criticized by Democratic challenger Paul Davis, the state House minority leader.

Road Map Solutions, a nonprofit group, formed in December 2011 with the treasurer

“

Why would anyone be terrified about people hearing the facts? These are bulletproof, air-tight facts.”

— David Kensinger, member of Road Map Solutions of Brownback’s successful 2010 campaign for governor as the new group’s resident agent.

The group takes its name from the “Road Map for Kansas” platform from Brownback’s last campaign, and its president is David Kensinger, who managed that campaign and later served as Brown-

back’s chief of staff.

Kensinger said the group plans to run the TV spot at least several hundred times over at least 10 days, spending at least $82,000. The ad is running on broadcast and cable stations in Topeka and Wichita.

The spot says the state is growing, “and that means real oppor-

tunity to invest in our schools and our people.”

Kansas had the 10th lowest unemployment rate of any state in both December and January, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

Brownback has proposed phasing in full state funding for all-day kindergarten programs.

“Why would anyone be terrified about people hearing the facts?”

Kensinger said. “These are bulletproof, airtight facts.”

But Davis spokesman Chris Pumpelly said the ad is an attempt by

Brownback’s allies to distort his record.

Davis has been critical of massive personal income tax cuts enacted at Brownback’s urging, arguing that they haven’t stimulated the economy as promised and have prevented the state from restoring past, recessiondriven cuts in aid to public schools. Davis also contends the tax cuts will prevent the state from adequately funding schools in the future.

“Kansas is in a mess that the governor created,” Pumpelly said.

County to discuss agritourism Woman arrested on suspicion of

By Elliot Hughes ehughes@ljworld.com

The Douglas County Commission will once again take on the topic of revising zoning codes for agritourism businesses at its weekly meeting today.

In October, the County Commission appealed to the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission to draft recommended changes to its current agritourism regulations. The planning group will present those suggestions, County Administrator Craig Weinaug said.

Agritourism regulations have been a difficult subject for the commission to tackle for more than a year. In January 2013, the board approved a new set of regulations with the goal of making it easier to operate certain kinds of agribusinesses.

Branson also asked the congressman to provide proof of who in Douglas County received the solicitation and proof that they have been contacted

Kansas Constitution.

For capital outlay budgets — money used for big-ticket items like computers, equipment and building repairs — the state has not provided any equalization aid since 2009.

But some Republicans expressed concern that the additional money for those two formulas — estimated at $129 million a year — would go mainly for property tax relief and would not necessarily put more money into classroom education.

That’s because state law limits how much districts can raise in each fund. So if the state doesn’t pay its full share, Schmidt explained, local districts either have to raise their property tax levies to make up the difference or cut their budgets in those areas.

“With that in mind,” asked Rep. Marvin Kleeb, R-Overland Park, “do you see ways that we could actually have this money

“

I’m not anticipating a vote, but I am anticipating a read, for the first time, as to where the majority of the commission might be leaning.”

— Craig Weinaug, county administrator But when an Overland Park couple in September submitted an application for their KC Pumpkin Patch, which included designs of a parking lot to accommodate 800 cars, neighbors protested.

That prompted the commission to re-evaluate its regulations.

Part of the question at hand is where to draw a line between smaller agribusinesses

tion. Branson also asked for evidence of whether the recipients requested their money be returned and proof that it was returned, and he set a deadline of March 26 for the proof.

Branson, who forwarded a copy of his letter to the Kansas attorney general, provided a copy of the email dated March 17 with the subject “Win NCAA Tournament Tickets” sent from huelskampforcongress@rurallink.net. According to the email, an online contribution of at least $10 to Huelskamp’s campaign between Monday and 8 a.m. Wednesday would enter participants into a

go to education, go back to those school districts, and put equity back to the students, helping those students out, rather than just tax relief?”

Schmidt advised against taking that approach.

“If you’re going to have a system that relies at least in part … on local property tax effort, then the Constitution requires that that effort be equalized,” Schmidt said.

If the Legislature does anything less than restore full funding, Schmidt said, then those issues will be remanded back to the three-judge trial panel for further review. And if the Legislature does nothing, he said, that could result in the panel enjoining the entire local option budget mechanism, which state

and large-scale commercial operations that necessitate stricter regulation.

Currently, all agritourism permits are under a moratorium until April 30.

In other business Wednesday, the commission is expected to discuss a proposed master plan for Douglas County Fairgrounds improvements.

The discussion will center on a cost recovery analysis of fairgrounds events, as well as building maintenance and accessibility for the disabled.

“I’m not anticipating a vote, but I am anticipating a read, for the first time, as to where the majority of the commission might be leaning,” Weinaug said of the proposed master plan.

battery in stabbing during dispute

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

Lawrence police arrested a 22-year-old Lawrence woman on suspicion of aggravated battery after she allegedly stabbed a man, and herself, during a domestic dispute early Tuesday morning.

Stephanie Rose Kwasniak was booked into the Douglas County Jail just

after 6 a.m. She was arrested after being treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, where the victim was also treated and later released, according to Kim Murphree, a Lawrence Police Department spokeswoman.

Murphree said Lawrence police responded to a possible stabbing at 1:13 a.m. at an apartment in the 1400 block of Coventry Manor. They found

a man with a cut on his back and a woman with a cut on her leg. The man’s name has not been released.

Murphree said officers determined that the woman inflicted both wounds and that an argument led to the altercation.

Journal-World partner Operation 100 News first reported the incident.

Preliminary hearing set for man accused in fatal apartment shooting

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

The 29-year-old Lawrence man accused of shooting another man to death at his apartment earlier this m o n t h returned to court Tuesday to schedule a May preWalker liminary hearing.

Dustin D. Walker is accused of killing Patrick Rob-

drawing and the winner of the tickets would be revealed later that morning.

The message is signed “Tim Huelskamp, Member of Congress” and includes a P.O. Box address in Fowler to which checks could also be mailed.

On Tuesday, Huelskamp made light of the KU-Kansas State rivalry, adding that he refused “to be intimidated by a Lawrence attorney likely still reeling from the 31-10 football blowout this fall and the 85-82 overtime CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A victory by the Wildcats just last month.”

On Tuesday, District Judge Paula Martin scheduled a May 6 preliminary hearing for Walker, who is being charged with firstdegree murder and is in jail on a $1 million bond.

According to police, several relatives who lived with Roberts were present at the time of the early-morning shooting. Roberts later died after being taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

Police think at least two people participated in the

disturbance, which ended when Roberts was struck in the chest by one of several shots fired. Walker and another man were detained a little more than an hour later and the other man was released after questioning.

On Tuesday, Kim Murphree, a Lawrence Police spokeswoman, did not have anything new to share on the investigation. Murphree said detectives are still following up on leads and still ask anyone with information to call the department’s investigations division at 830-7430.

Caron said he thinks once construction begins that many people will understand how destructive the roadway project will be to the wetland environment.

“It won’t take long for the public to understand that it has a much larger impact on the wetlands than what they were led to believe,” Caron said.

But supporters of the trafficway have said a mitigation plan will do much to limit the envi-

ronmental impacts of the roadway. The project includes constructing about 300 acres of manmade wetlands to replace the approximately 55 acres of wetlands that will be taken for the project.

Supporters of the trafficway also have said the project will greatly improve traffic flow and will make the community more attractive for economic development.

Basehor student repeats as state spelling champ

By Nico Roesler nroesler@ljworld.com

Sterling Holland knew not to forget the silent C when the judges gave him the word that could potentially win him the Sunflower Spelling Bee championship.

“Acquiescence,” Holland said while on stage at Fort Hays State University two weeks ago.

“A, C, Q...”

Holland had been studying words with the root similar to the word “acquittal” for weeks leading up to the Sunflower Spelling Bee championship with the help of his mom and unofficial coach, Anne Holland.

“It was weird,” Anne Holland said. “We had just been studying ‘acquittal’ and that’s the word, or a word with the same root, that comes up.”

Sterling finished spelling the word and was crowned the champion speller in Kansas for the second year in a row.

The win, like it did last year, earns Sterling and his family an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C., at the end of May to compete in the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Last year, Holland advanced to the third round in the National Spelling Bee before being eliminated. He was one of about 250 students who qualified for the competition.

This year, he hopes to make it to the 5th round, at least, where he would be in the top 40 competitors.

“Last year, I was kind of new to everything,” Sterling said. “There are a lot of spellers that have been there for a couple years and are used to everything.

This year, Sterling is one of those repeat contenders.

But spelling isn’t the only thing on Sterling’s mind. He is a seventhgrader at Basehor-Linwood Middle School competing in a bevy of sports. He plays basketball, runs cross country and track, and competes in wrestling, hockey and lacrosse.

Sterling says he has to know about 12 different languages and how their influence on certain words affects how they are spelled. His mother is able to offer specialized help with classic languages such as Latin because she has a degree in classics from Grinnell University.

“I try to help him out by breaking down the words,” Anne Holland said. “It’s a way for me to actually use my major.”

The two, along with Sterling’s brother and sister, like to take time to study when they can at Java Break in downtown Lawrence, where Sterling can get a bowl of cereal while he practices.

LAWRENCE • STATE

.

Kansas unemployment dropped slightly in Jan. Topeka (ap) — A Kansas agency says the state’s jobless rate dipped to 4.8 percent in January and more people held jobs than at the beginning of 2013.

The state Department of Labor said January’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate fell from the 4.9 percent recorded for December

2013. The rate was 5.6 percent in January 2013.

Monday’s report also said total nonfarm, private-sector employment in January topped 1.12 million, showing a gain of 20,500 jobs from January 2013. Private-sector employment growth over the year was 1.9 percent.

The state saw its most robust growth in con-

struction, where 61,000 people held jobs in January, compared with 55,100 in January 2013, a 10.7 percent rise.

Professional, business, educational and health services also saw employment increases over the year, while manufacturing and government employment dropped slightly.

Plans

city should have in building a broadband network.

The proposals provided varying details on possible financial participation by the city. Details from the proposals include: • Wicked Fiber is seeking a $500,000 economic development grant from the city to help pay for a $1 million pilot project that would bring 1 gigabit service to downtown and East Lawrence. If successful, Wicked estimates it would cost $30 million to build a broadband system that would provide 1 gigabit service to the entire community. The company envisions using private funding for that portion of the project. l Free State Broadband said it would seek land and a 3,000 squarefoot building in the city’s new Venture Park to house its operations. Free State, however stressed it was still doing a market analysis to determine the demand for superfast broadband service in the city. l AT&T said Lawrence now is among the cities it is studying to add 1 gigabit

Internet service to its offerings. If the company decides to move forward, it said it would be responsible for all the financial requirements of the project. l ISG/Twin Valley was not specific in what assistance it may require from the city. But the company touted a partnership it has with the city of Columbia, Mo., where ISG provides broadband and data center services by using a fiber optic ring that is owned by the city of Columbia.

The city of Lawrence owns a significant amount of fiber optic cable in the community, and all the respondents have indicated an interest in accessing that fiber optic network.

Corliss said he expects the review process to begin soon because any significant project likely would need to be discussed as part of the city’s 2015 budget process, which begins this summer.

interest. “We feel like we received a number of good responses.”

The four companies that responded: Lawrencebased Wicked Fiber, which previously has operated as Lawrence Freenet; Baldwin City-based Free State Broadband; national giant AT&T; and ISG Technology and Twin Valley Telephone, which operates a host of largely rural telephone and Internet systems in north-central Kansas.

Corliss said a review committee of both City Hall staff members and community representatives with technical expertise is being formed to review the proposals.

Ultimately, though, it will be up to the City Commission to determine how to move forward on any project.

Corliss said commissioners will be tasked with determining what type of financial participation the

surgery because he was likely going to die otherwise.

He would give anything to not have gained all that weight in the first place, not to have the scars on his stomach and the flaps of extra skin, a constant reminder of his previous life.

Still, the extreme weight loss has given him this platform, and he intends to use it for good.

“I’m willing to do anything I can do to help others not get to where I was,” he said. “I’ll speak to any group of people, whether it’s kids or adults. But they have to be prepared to hear the truth. I’m not going to sugarcoat it. I’m going to tell them I was so big I couldn’t fit behind the wheel of a car. I’m going to tell them the real horrors of where obesity could get them.”

He tried losing weight on his own, with crash diets, but he would just shed a few pounds before putting on even more.

In 2008, he moved to Illinois for a job. Not long after, he got so sick he ended up in the hospital, then a nursing home, where nurses introduced him to the idea of gastric bypass surgery. He found out he had to lose about 100 pounds to even do the procedure, which he underwent that September.

Walls ultimately went from 962 pounds at his peak to 205 now. He says he didn’t do it alone. He credits everyone from his bedside nurses to his fraternity brothers with helping guide him through the experience.

And it’s taken years of rehabilitation and large-

scale lifestyle changes to get him to this point.

“Gastric bypass is not a magic fix,” he said. “Just because you have weightloss surgery doesn’t mean you can continue to live the life you’re living.”

He has already counseled several people struggling with obesity, as well as those set to have gastric bypass surgery. His cooking background — he has a degree in culinary arts — allows him to share insight into preparing healthy food.

But the battle doesn’t end with weight-loss surgery, Walls says. He still struggles with his health, and has even lost jobs because he was too ill to show up. And the bodyimage issues don’t go away, either.

“There’s still times today I’m totally not comfortable with the fact that I’ve lost all the weight. I look at myself in the mirror and think, ‘Damn, I look sick,’ or, ‘Man, I need to eat something,’” he said.

“It’s just such a change. It’s a hard adjustment for me every day. But every day, I get a little more comfortable with myself.”

Economist to speak at Lied Center

By Ben Unglesbee Twitter: @LJW_KU

Nobel Prize-winning economist Alvin Roth is set to speak in April at the Lied Center about a familiar economic concept with a very human twist: markets we find morally repugnant.

Roth, a distinguished professor of economics at Stanford University and a distinguished professor emeritus at Harvard Business School, has spent much of his career studying markets for goods and services that are difficult to put a price on.

Very often the difficulty comes from our own distaste or moral aversion to adding a price tag.

Take, as examples, hu-

man organs. “The public feels a little squeamish about using markets to allocate body parts,” said Neal Becker, a KU assistant professor in economics who took graduate classes with Roth when Roth taught at the University of Pittsburgh.

As one solution, Roth has helped develop a kidney exchange system where incompatible patient-donor pairs can find compatible pairs.

Roth’s research has also helped create systems to match students with schools and medical interns with hospital residencies.

Roth’s talk at the Lied Center is slated for 7 p.m.

April 1 and is free and open to the public.

EDITORIALS

Facing facts Mistakes happen, but state legislators should place a high priority on basing their decisions on correct information.

R

egardless of the ideological slant Kansas legislators bring to their work, state residents have a right to expect their lawmakers at least to get their facts straight.

Legislators get a lot of information and it’s understandable that, from time to time, they might get some wrong information or misconstrue some information they receive. However, when their presumed facts are called into question, they have a responsibility to double-check that information not simply double-down on their mistake.

Sen. Tom Arpke, R-Salina, probably isn’t the only person guilty of doing this, but he recently provided one vivid example of such behavior on a Kansas University issue.

In a subcommittee meeting last week, Arpke led the denial of $2 million for a proposed drug-development institute at KU and directed that money toward a scholarship program for low-income students. That fund usually is split half and half between students at public universities and those at private colleges. However, Arpke said he wanted 75 percent of the $2 million to go to private schools. At least part of his justification for that move is his continuing assertion that the graduation rate at private colleges in Kansas is far higher than at public universities.

Unfortunately the graduation rates he is quoting don’t represent an apples-to-apples comparison. Arpke has said private schools have a 71 percent four-year graduation rate while KU’s four-year rate is just 32.2 percent. However, 71 percent is the percentage of the private school graduates who received their degrees within four years, while KU’s figure is the percentage of the entire freshman class. The comparable four-year graduation figure for private colleges actually is 31.4 percent, slightly lower than KU’s.

Given this information, Arpke refused to acknowledge any problem with the comparison he was making and said he was simply working off reports he had been given. It’s uncertain whether he planned to look into the matter any further.

Misinformation, no doubt, abounds in a legislative session, and a fair number of faulty facts seem to be swirling around the discussion of state university budgets. It’s good to note that a group of state legislators is reviving a caucus aimed at advancing higher education. One of the key goals of those legislators should be to share dependable information with their colleagues and clear up any misconceptions that arise during discussions of higher education legislation.

There certainly is room for honest disagreements on any number of legislative issues, but those disagreements should be based on the facts, not on faulty assertions.

Stalin genocide spurs no nostalgia “Boys from another school pulled out the severed head of a classmate while fishing in a pond. His whole family had died. Had they eaten him first? Or had he survived the deaths of his parents only to be killed by a cannibal? No one knew; but such questions were commonplace for the children of Ukraine in 1933. ... Yet cannibalism was, sometimes, a victimless crime. Some mothers and fathers killed their children and ate them. ... But other parents asked their children to make use of their own bodies if they passed away.

More than one Ukrainian child had to tell a brother or sister: ‘Mother says that we should eat her if she dies.’”

— Timothy Snyder, “Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin” (2010) Washington — While Vladimir Putin, Stalin’s spawn, ponders what to do with what remains of Ukraine, remember: Nine years before the January 1942 Wannsee Conference, at which the Nazis embarked on industrialized genocide, Stalin deliberately inflicted genocidal starvation on Ukraine.

To fathom the tangled forces, including powerful ones of memory, at work in that singularly tormented place, begin

U.S. policymakers, having allowed their wishes to father their thoughts, find Putin incomprehensible. He is a barbarian but not a monster, and hence no Stalin.”

with Snyder’s stunning book. Secretary of State John Kerry has called Russia’s invasion of Ukraine “a 19th-century act in the 21st century.” Snyder reminds us that “Europeans deliberately starved Europeans in horrific numbers in the middle of the 20th century.” Here is Snyder’s distillation of a Welsh journalist’s description of a Ukrainian city: “People appeared at 2 o’clock in the morning to queue in front of shops that did not open until 7. On an average day 40,000 people would wait for bread. Those in line were so desperate to keep their places that they would

cling to the belts of those immediately in front of them. ... The waiting lasted all day, and sometimes for two. ... Somewhere in line a woman would wail, and the moaning would echo up and down the line, so that the whole group of thousands sounded like a single animal with an elemental fear.”

This, which occurred about as close to Paris as Washington is to Denver, was an engineered famine, the intended result of Stalin’s decision that agriculture should be collectivized and the “kulaks” — prosperous farmers — should be “liquidated as a class.” In January 1933, Stalin, writes Snyder, sealed Ukraine’s borders so peasants could not escape and sealed the cities so peasants could not go there to beg. By spring, more than 10,000 Ukrainians were dying each day, more than the 6,000 Jews who perished daily in Auschwitz at the peak of extermination in the spring of 1944.

Soon many Ukrainian children resembled “embryos out of alcohol bottles” (Arthur Koestler’s description) and there were, in Snyder’s words, “roving bands of cannibals”: “In the villages smoke coming from a cottage chimney was a suspicious sign, since it tended to mean that cannibals were eating a kill or that families were roasting one of their members.”

Snyder, a Yale historian, is judicious about estimates of Ukrainian deaths from hunger and related diseases, settling on an educated guess of approximately 3.3 million, in 1932-33. He says that when “the Soviet census of 1937 found 8 million fewer people than projected,” many of the missing being victims of starvation in Ukraine and elsewhere (and the children they did not have), Stalin “had the responsible demographers executed.”

Putin, who was socialized in the Soviet-era KGB apparatus of oppression, aspires to reverse the Soviet Union’s collapse, which he considers “the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the (20th) century.” Herewith a final description from Snyder of the consequences of the Soviet system, the passing of which Putin so regrets: “One spring morning, amidst the piles of dead peasants at the Kharkiv market, an infant suckled the breast of its mother, whose face was a lifeless gray. Passersby had seen this before ... that precise scene, the tiny mouth, the last drops of milk, the cold nipple. The Ukrainians had a term for this. They said to themselves, quietly, as they passed: ‘These are the buds of the socialist spring.’”

U.S. policymakers, having allowed their wishes to father their thoughts, find Putin incomprehensible. He is a barbarian but not a monster, and hence no Stalin. But he has been coarsened, in ways difficult for civilized people to understand, by certain continuities, institutional and emotional, with an almost unimaginably vicious past. And as Ukraine, a bubbling stew of tensions and hatreds, struggles with its identity and aspirations, Americans should warily remember William Faulkner’s aphorism: “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” lll

— George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Kansans should reclaim power It was reported this week that during a hearing on a proposed bill to ban judicial lobbying, Craig Gabel, from Kansans for Liberty, said that he was testifying on behalf of the “common citizens” of Kansas. When I read this, I immediately began to wonder about how the “common citizen” of Kansas actually gets heard in the Legislature. Indeed, I began to wonder whether the views of the ordinary Kansan are heard in Topeka anymore.

On one level, of course, ordinary citizens’ views are heard through their elected officials or, at least, that’s the theory. In recent years, however, voter turnout in many parts of Kansas has been abysmally low. I have, in the past, questioned whether some of the bills introduced in this legislative session have really represented the beliefs of ordinary Kansans. To my mind, the problem with our current system in which so few Kansans go to the polls is that elected officials often represent the views of a vocal minority of voters who are motivated to vote because of specific “hot button” issues. The majority of Kansans often don’t vote in elections, so to say that elected officials represent the “common citizen” is really not accurate at all. These legislators often represent minority views allowed to prevail by general voter apathy.

It is certainly true that the average citizen, if motivated enough to take the time and effort, can testify before the Legislature on various issues.

I have done it and it’s a great deal of work, but well worth it to be heard by those in the

Mike Hoeflich

“

I think that those Kansans who are unhappy about legislative actions should stop complaining in private unless they are willing to take action themselves.” corridors of power. But I wonder how many Kansans actually do this. My sense is that very few ordinary Kansans actually testify before our Legislature. On the other hand, anyone who visits the Capitol during the time when the Legislature is in session knows that the building is filled to the brim with lawyers and lobbyists often representing groups with patriotic and inspirational names that, in reality, represent small, special interest groups. I really cannot think of very many lobbyists who really represent the ordinary Kansan.

Then there are the polls and the so-called “objective studies.” We seem to be overrun by these. But, here again, one has to ask whether these are truly objective. The very fact that most of these polls and studies seem to reflect the political and economic views of the groups that pay for them suggest that they are not truly objective at all.

I’m afraid that I have to conclude that we don’t really know what the ordinary Kansan thinks about most issues that come before the Legislature. Indeed, I suspect that the ordinary Kansan knows little about most of the bills that go through the Legislature each year.

And that’s a pity. It’s a pity because I believe that the ordinary Kansan is a decent person who cares about his neighbors and about the state and those views need to be heard in Topeka. Unfortunately, the ordinary Kansan doesn’t care enough to vote regularly or to take the time to tell his representative what is important to him or to actually come to Topeka to tell the Legislature directly what he thinks.

I think that those Kansans who are unhappy about legislative actions should stop complaining in private unless they are willing to take action themselves. Ours is a state with a proud history of populism. We the people are not powerless. We can speak and we can tell our leaders what we want and what we value.

But there is only one way that ordinary Kansans will be heard in Topeka: through the ballot box and through personal involvement. There was a common slogan in the 1960’s that I think Kansans need to remember: “power to the people.” It is time for ordinary Kansans to speak out and to act. Only then will we really know what the “common citizen” believes.

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

PUBLIC FORUM

Expand Medicaid To the editor: Help is available for the tens of thousands of hardworking Kansans through Medicaid expansion. Right now, these Kansans are caught in the middle because they make too much money to get health care coverage through the existing Medicaid program, but not enough to get assistance through the health insurance marketplace.

There are about 20,219, adults between the age of 50-64 in Kansas who have lost jobs or are working in jobs without health insurance. In addition to providing needed coverage that will pay for their care in a health care crisis, expanding Medicaid will give folks access to preventive care.

Expanding Medicaid, and accepting the federal funding will boost the economy at no cost to the state, create jobs and help hospitals with payment not previously available. The federal government will provide 100 percent of the cost of the expansion coverage for the first three years (beginning in 2014) and 90 percent after that.

As a health care professional, I feel the need to speak out and encourage folks in our community to call or write to your legislators and governor to allow Medicaid expansion.

Health care coverage should have bipartisan support for the sake of our Kansas citizens.

The new obstacles are more subtle.

To keep premiums low, insurers have designed narrow networks of hospitals and doctors.

The government-subsidized private plans on the exchanges typically offer less choice than Medicare or employer plans.

By not including a top cancer center an insurer can cut costs. It may also shield itself from risk, delivering an implicit message to cancer survivors or people with a strong family history of the disease that they should look elsewhere.

For now, the issue seems to be limited to the new insurance exchanges. But it could become a concern for Americans with job-based coverage, too, if employers turn to narrow networks.

Moscow — In a gilded Kremlin hall used by czars, Vladimir Putin redrew Russia’s borders Tuesday by declaring the Crimean Peninsula part of the motherland — provoking a surge of emotion among Russians who lament the loss of empire and denunciations from Western leaders who called Putin a threat to the world.

While Putin’s action was hailed by jubilant Putin crowds in Moscow and cities across Russia, Ukraine’s new government called the Russian president a threat to the “civilized world and international security,” and the U.S. and Europe threatened tougher sanctions against Moscow.

Vice President Joe Biden, meeting with anxious European leaders in Poland, denounced what he called “nothing more than a land grab.”

Military officials in neighboring Thailand said Tuesday their own radar showed an unidentified plane, possibly Flight 370, flying toward the strait beginning minutes after the Malaysian jet’s transponder signal was lost.

Air force spokesman Air Vice Marshal Montol Suchookorn said the Thai military doesn’t know whether the plane it detected was Flight 370.

In all, only four of 19 nationally recognized comprehensive cancer centers that responded to AP’s survey said patients have access through all the insurance companies in their states’ exchanges.

Not too long ago insurance companies would have been vying to offer access to renowned cancer centers, said Dan Mendelson, CEO of the market research firm Avalere Health. Now the focus is on costs.

Before President Barack Obama’s health care law, a cancer diagnosis could make you uninsurable. Now, insurers can’t turn away people with health problems or charge them more.

Washington (ap) — Some of America’s best cancer hospitals are offlimits to many of the people now signing up for coverage under the nation’s new health care program.

Doctors and administrators say they’re concerned. So are some state insurance regulators.

An Associated Press survey found examples coast to coast. Seattle Cancer Care Alliance is excluded by five out of eight insurers in Washington’s insurance exchange. MD Anderson Cancer Center says it’s in less than half of the plans in the Houston area. Memorial Sloan-Kettering is included by two of nine insurers in New York City and has out-of-network agreements with two more.

The three surviving recipients — Vietnam veterans Jose Rodela, Melvin Morris and Santiago Erevia — received a prolonged standing ovation at Obama’s side, their faces set in somber acknowledgement of the honor.

2 killed in news helicopter crash Seattle — Witnesses heard an “unusual noise” just before a KOMO-TV helicopter crashed Tuesday morning, killing a veteran Seattle photojournalist and the pilot, a federal safety investigator said at an afternoon news briefing.

Investigators are looking into the possibility that the helicopter’s main rotor hit the tail, but all potential causes are under investigation in the 7:40 a.m. crash, said Dennis Hogenson, acting deputy chief of the National Transportation Safety Board’s Western Pacific Region.

One witness described a “whining” sound from the engine as the helicopter departed the helipad at Fisher Plaza, home of KOMO-TV, Hogenson said.

Scoop up snacks with gluten-free crackers

S

ince my kiddo is on a gluten-free diet, I’ve learned a few things about gluten-free shopping. One: many grocery stores are pretty limited in what they carry.

Two: what is available is usually in a wildly overpriced and undersized package. Three: there are ways around this.

Gluten-free does not have to mean enjoyment-free.

With tons of recipes available, you can whip up all kinds of groovy meals and treats that won’t distress your digestion. Today, we’re going to make a gluten-free “water� cracker. Not a standalone snack, this is a go-with cracker that’s meant to be eaten with soup or topped

with fresh fruit and cheese.

You can use a commercial gluten-free flour mix or make your own from toasted quinoa, oats, rice, almond meal or a bunch of other possibilities. Each seed or grain has its own special properties. Some make for crumbliness, while others produce crackers that will do double duty as manhole covers.

Fire up your oven to 350 degrees and haul out a baking sheet. In a medium mixing bowl, blend 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt and 2 cups of your chosen flour. My favorite version so far used 1/2 cup of quinoa flour, 3/4 cup of toasted almond meal, Please see CRACKERS, page 2B

A barrel-aged Manhattan with oak spirals

Sip up a barrel-aged Manhattan

By Meryl Carver-Allmond Special to the Journal-World

One of the best parts of spring is gathering on a back porch with friends on warm evenings and enjoying a round of cocktails. For ease of both pouring and drinking, one of our new favorite drinks to enjoy in such fashion is a barrelaged Manhattan.

The concept of barrel-aged cocktails was first popularized several years ago by Jeffrey Morgenthaler, a Portland bartender. Essentially, you take all of the ingredients for your drink and age them in an oak barrel for about six weeks. The result is a smoother, more interesting libation that needs nothing more than one fat cube of ice to clink in the bottom of the glass as you sip it down.

Morgenthaler makes his barrel-aged cocktails in restaurant

quantities and ages them in small oak barrels. If you want to go that route, Tuthilltown Spirits (tuthilltown.com) sells suitable barrels for under $100.

If your aspirations are only to serve a few friends, however, Tuthilltown also sells oak infusion spirals, which can be used to age much smaller quantities.

The spirals, which are essentially small pieces of charred wood, are simply left to float in your liquor and then strained out when the aging process is complete.

At $10 for three spirals, I decided to take this more economical route when I packaged up a “Barrel-Aged Manhattan Kit” as a gift for my husband.

He dutifully mixed our brew of rye whiskey, vermouth, bitters and one oak spiral. And then we waited.

Actually, that’s a lie. We took a lot of sips as the aging process

commenced, and, sure enough, the drink did get noticeably better at about a month and better still at six weeks. We thought about giving it a full two months just to be really scientific, but it was just too good to last that long.

While the aging process does take planning ahead, once you have a bottle or two prepared, you’ll need nothing else — other than perhaps a few good friends and some great conversation — to enjoy a perfect spring evening outside.

Barrel-Aged Manhattan 1 750 mL bottle of rye whiskey (we used Bulleit) 1 375 mL bottle of sweet vermouth 1 1/2 tablespoon Angostura bitters

1 oak spiral Using a pretty bottle or halfgallon canning jar, mix all of the ingredients together. Cap the jar and set it aside for about six weeks. While I don’t know that it’s necessary, we swirled the contents of our jar once a week or so.

Once the six weeks are up, strain off the oak spiral. You can use it again several times. Enjoy your Manhattan as-is, with a single ice cube, or with a fancy cherry, if you must.

and 3/4 cup of commercial flour mix.

Drop in 4 tablespoons of shortening. Mash it all around with a fork, and then use your hands to rub in the last lumps. It’ll look like a big bowl of cracker crumbs, which … is pretty apt. Now start adding water, a tablespoon at a time, and stir it around with your fork until you get a dough that holds together when squeezed. It’ll be kind of crumbly; you won’t be able to knead it like regular bread dough, but it should at least form a ball.

Roll out the dough between two pieces of baking parchment until it’s super thin. I’m talking 1/8 inch; any thicker, and they won’t have any crunch. Use a 2-inchround cookie cutter to stamp out as many as you can.

Transfer the rounds to your ungreased baking sheet. You can crowd them a little, because they don’t expand. Reroll the scraps and repeat the cutting until your sheet is full.

Pop the pan in the oven for 8 minutes and grab a cup of coffee (or whatever). When the timer dings, flip the crackers and bake them for another 8 minutes.

When the timer dings again, pull the pan from the oven and transfer the crackers to a rack to cool. If you have any dough left, you can do the roll-and-cut thing again.

Once they’re cool, you now have a very basic cracker that will not only go with just about anything, it will also pass the dunk test! I held on in a cup of water for 30 seconds and it still crunched. Store extra crackers in an airtight container.

Enjoy!

Zucchini crab cakes with lime aioli

A fresh take on the classic crab cake

By Alison Ladman Associated Press

To help get us in the mood for spring, we’ve given a seasonal makeover to the classic crab cake.

We started by adding the fresh flavor of shredded zucchini. It melts into the bolder flavors of the other ingredients, yet still keeps the crab cakes tasting light. For a binder, we skipped the usual bread and instead used mashed potato, which gives the finished crab cakes a light and fresh texture. For a topping, we created a simple lime aioli, which lends a vibrant tang.

This recipe comes together quickly, but also is do-ahead easy. The patties can be prepped up to a day ahead, then refrigerated until ready to fry.

Poke the potato all over with a fork. Microwave on high until completely tender, 6 to 10 minutes depending on your microStart to finish: 1 hour wave. Allow the potato to (30 minutes active) cool until easily handled, Servings: 10 then peel and mash.

for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, in small bowl, whisk together the garlic, 2 egg yolks, mustard, lime juice and zest, and vinegar. In a slow stream, drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously. Season with salt and pepper.

After the cakes have chilled, dredge them thoroughly in flour.

In a large skillet over medium-high, heat the oil. Add the cakes, working in batches if necessary, and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Serve with the aioli.

The warm days and cool nights of spring can make for challenging dinners. During the days, we want to be outside enjoying the sun, but the evenings call for something warm and comforting.

Trouble is, warm and comforting dinners require time at the stove.

Our solution? A quick and easy soup that is jammed with fresh vegetables and comes together in about 30 minutes. We combine seasonally perfect asparagus with the sweet taste of frozen corn and a heap of fresh thyme.

The result is light, yet fresh and filling.

Bringing the bacon to boring chicken

R

aise your hand if you’re tired of chicken. Actually, raise your hand if you’re tired of thinking about what’s for dinner every bloody night of the week. Even for those of us who love to cook, it can get old.

And you look in your pantry and you go, “yeah, yeah, same old, same old.” You go through your regular litany of things, which for me goes like this: “Stir fry? No — had that on Tuesday.

Pasta? Ugh. Mexican?

Nope, had that last night.

Steaks? Oh, had those on Friday.” And then we’re back to chicken.

When you’re cooking on a budget, sometimes chicken happens. Like, a lot. I get tired of trying to find ways to make chicken interesting. For starters, chicken breasts are pretty much my least favorite protein. They’re bland, usually dry and generally unappetizing — at least to me.

But they are inexpensive, and when they’re on sale I find myself picking up a bunch and figuring I’ll find something to do with them that doesn’t make me want to cry when I sit down to dinner.

Granted, this particular meal takes away any vestige of healthiness that the chicken breast can offer, which is pretty much its only saving grace, but it does include

Chicken mozzarella bundles bacon and cheese, so well, bacon. What can I say? It makes my family happy.

This looks pretty fancy, but it actually didn’t take long at all to put together, so it has that (and bacon) going for it.

Really, it was delicious.

Even my 4-year-old said so and he’s a pretty tough audience. When he looks at me during dinner and says in a very serious voice, “Mama, I love you,” I know my meal has done its work.

4 skewers Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Begin by pounding the chicken breasts a little thinner, and sprinkling both sides with salt and pepper.

Lay the cheese in the middle of the breast and pull both sides up around it. Then wrap the whole thing several times with a long strip of bacon. Secure the whole thing with a skewer. (A toothpick just won’t cut it.)

In a large skillet, brown the bundles on all sides.

Then transfer them to a baking dish and cook through, about 30 minutes.

I served this with mashed potatoes and green beans and happiness abounded. Even on chicken night.

A healthier take on a blueberry crumble dessert

keep pretending the glimpses of warm weather we’ve been getting will actually last. And then Mother Nature comes in and rains (or snows) on my parade.

She might have control over the weather, but I have control over the kitchen. And this week I wanted a summer dessert.

That said, I wasn’t about to buy some anemic, out-of-season fruit to get there. Rather, my lifesaver was one of my favorite go-tos: frozen fruit. In this case, blueberries.

I’ve been avoiding regular flour, trying to figure out some stomach issues, so I made what I’m calling a “faux crumble” using almond flour and a bunch of other goodies.

The result is something I think is pretty healthy as far as dessert goes. Plus, it’s super easy and quick

FARM FRESH $AVINGS!

Pinch sea salt Preheat oven to 350.

Spread blueberries evenly across a 7x11-inch glass baking dish. Squeeze a good bit of lemon juice on top.

In a small bowl, mix almond flour, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and a little more lemon juice. Once combined, spread over blueberries as evenly as possible.

Bake 35-40 minutes, until the fruit is bubbling and the topping has browned.

Serve warm.

Note: Make sure all your ingredients are warm or room temperature. If they’re not, your melted coconut oil will start to harden again before baking. It will still bake properly, but the oil won’t be as evenly distributed.

Winning bracket as easy as 1-2-3 Three steps to winning your bracket contest: Step I: Without doing any research, put pen to paper and write down the schools you believe deserved a higher seed than the selection committee gave them.

Step II: Summon the courage to advance each school, unless it faces a school you just can’t picture it beating.

Here’s a half-dozen schools that deserved higher seeds: n No. 4 seed Louisville: Ranked No. 5 in the Associated Press poll, which translates to a No. 2 seed.

Defending national champion, done in by the dreaded RPI, a system designed to reward schools for assembling difficult schedules first and determining the quality of teams second.

Cards ranked 19th in RPI, seven spots behind VCU. n No. 11 seed Tennessee: Volunteers blasted No. 1 seed Virginia, 87-52, on Dec. 30, but March has been the Vols’ best month. They won their first four March games, all against SEC competition, by an average of 27 points. Their only March loss came by seven points to No. 1 overall seed Florida.

The Vols play at a slow tempo that frustrates opponents. They hit the boards hard at both ends, play strong man-to-man defense, take good shots and have three experienced, talented, big-time players.

Freshmen: Big 12 tourney good prep for NCAAs

National title just latest success in Baker wrestler’s career

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

BAKER UNIVERSITY FRESHMAN BRYCE SHOEMAKER, RIGHT, wrestles on his way to an NAIA championship on March 8 in Topeka.

Baldwin City — At each level of competition throughout his wrestling career, Bryce Shoemaker hasn’t needed long to rise to the top.

Shoemaker, a Baker University freshman, proved that once again by winning the 133-pound weight class at the NAIA Championships on March 8 at the Kansas Expocentre in Topeka. The victory made him the first national champion in the Baker wrestling program’s five-year history and im-

proved his record to 34-7 in his first collegiate campaign.

“I still can’t put words to it,” Shoemaker said. “All the hard work has just added up.”

The road to the top of the podium included a 13-8 decision over No. 1 seed Michael Ruiz of Great Falls and a 3-0 decision over Indiana Tech’s Justin Brooks in the championship match.

Baker head coach Pete Di Pol credited much of Shoemaker’s success during this past season to his ability to make adjustments from match to match.

“He struggled a little bit

making the transition from high school wrestling to college wrestling,” Di Pol said in a conference call from New Jersey, “but his ability to adapt and close the gap quickly, it shows how much he’s improved. Not only in the wrestling room but each and every match he got better because he just kept adapting to different styles.

He’s just very coachable.”

Di Pol also said that Shoemaker’s composure and confidence separated him from other freshman wrestlers across the country.

Dorsey: Chiefs won’t dwell on decision

by Sanders Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Chiefs general manager John Dorsey said Tuesday the controversial signing of wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders by AFC West-rival Denver has been “put to bed” and that he’s focused on what he can do during the rest of free agency and the draft.

Sanders had visited the Chiefs last week and reports began to surface he had agreed to a contract. His agent, Steve Weinberg, said that was never the case, and that reports citing unnamed sources that claimed he was “shopping” the Chiefs’ offer to other teams were inaccurate.

Sanders ultimately signed an $18 million, three-year deal with Denver, and the Chiefs’ lengthy and frustrating pursuit of a wide receiver to help out quarterback Alex Smith rolls on.

“During the free agency stuff, anything can happen,” Dorsey said in his first availability since the start of the open market. “I was interested in the player, and the end of the day the player and agent decided to go to Denver. ... That deal was put to bed.”

Well, it was almost put to bed.

Weinberg’s publicist issued a press release in which the agent offered his interpretation of the negotiations. The release also alleges someone from the Chiefs sent the agent “a series of angry and threatening text messages” under the assumption that he was shopping their deal.

The collective bargaining agreement states parties are supposed to negotiate in “good faith.”

“If we reached or agreed to terms with the Chiefs, we would have signed with Kansas City and never turned back,” Weinberg said. “There were absolutely no handshakes, verbal agreements or signed documents when Sanders left the Chiefs facility. Emmanuel was on his way to the airport when teams called us. We didn’t ‘shop any deals’ or ‘reach out’ to a single team. My fiduciary responsibility is to the players I represent and not to the NFL teams or their ‘good ole boys’ tactics.”

Dorsey refused Tuesday to say whether he thought the Chiefs had an agreement with Sanders, and it appears the franchise won’t take the rare step of filing a grievance.

“When we do negotiations, I don’t really talk about negotiations outside the building,” Dorsey said. “That’s really it. We move on. That’s what we’ve done. I’ve moved on.”

Just where the Chiefs have moved on to is the question.

They have been quiet in free agency in large part because they have very little room under the salary cap. They’ve signed defensive tackle Vance Walker and depth players such as Frank Zombo and Jeff Linkenbach, but have yet to address their most glaring holes: wide receiver and safety.

They now have less than $5 million under the salary cap, and much of that will go toward signing draft picks. And if they’re hopeful of filling their holes through the draft, they also are faced with having just one selection in the first 86 picks.

“I think we’re in a good position right now. We have some flexibility to do some things if we want to, some flexibility to acquire players. We’re in a good place,” Dorsey said. “I’ve said all along we’re going to be selective in free agency and we’re going to build through the draft. That’s what we’re doing.”

K-State women’s basketball taps TCU’s Mittie Kansas City, Mo. — Jeff Mittie won his milestone 300th game at TCU this season by beating Kansas State. Now, he’ll try to help the Wildcats beat the Horned Frogs.

Kansas State made the rare move of luring a head coach away from a conference rival on Tuesday, hiring Mittie to become its new women’s basketball coach. He replaces Deb Patterson, who was fired after 18 seasons that included nine NCAA Tournament appearances.

Mittie resigned from the Horned Frogs, where he had spent the past 15 seasons, and agreed to a five-year contract with Kansas State that will pay $375,000 the first year with $25,000 increases each remaining year. He will also receive a $140,000 signing bonus.

Dooley, Gulf Coast fall Tallahassee, Fla. — Aaron Thomas scored 22 points as the NIT’s top seed Florida State claimed a 58-53 victory over Florida Gulf Coast, coached by former Kansas University assistant Joe Dooley, on Tuesday night.

Georgetown tops W.Va. Washington — D’Vauntes Smith-Rivera had a season-high 32 points and 10 rebounds, and Georgetown defeated West Virginia, 77-65, on Tuesday night in a matchup of former conference rivals in the first round of the NIT.

Auburn names Pearl coach Auburn, Ala. — New Auburn coach Bruce Pearl wasted no time making an impression.

The former Tennessee coach sprung for pizza for several hundred students Tuesday a few hours after arriving in town, some of whom took selfies posing next to him. Then he told a couple thousand fans at Auburn Arena: “We’re fixing to get Auburn into that position where we’ll be going to the NCAA Tournament.”

The Tigers turned to Pearl Tuesday to revive a struggling basketball program that hasn’t been to the NCAA Tournament in more than a decade. Athletic director Jay Jacobs landed his top target with a six-year deal worth $2.2 million annually less than a week after firing Tony Barbee. Pearl remains under a showcause penalty from the NCAA. barring him from recruiting until Aug. 23.

Knicks introduce Jackson New York — Phil Jackson has returned to the New York Knicks as their team president.

The Knicks announced Jackson’s hiring Tuesday at a news conference in the lobby of Madison Square Garden, where a giant sign reading “Welcome Home Phil” was overhead and shirts with the No. 18 Jackson wore as a player lined the racks in the merchandise store.

Gooden sticks with Wizards Washington — Forward Drew Gooden signed a contract to play for the Washington Wizards for the rest of this season.

The 32-year-old Gooden, a former Kansas University standout, had two consecutive 10-day contracts with Washington. In his first eight games with the Wizards, Gooden averaged 8.1 points and 4.6 rebounds.

Shoemaker “

Bryce has set a new bar. ... Now, you’re not expected CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C to be an All-American; “(Bryce) had a little bit you’re expected to be of ... not cockiness, but he a national champion.” had a way about him of saying, ‘Hey, yeah, I’m a freshman, but don’t mess with me.’ I like that,” Di Pol said.

However, Shoemaker was quick to chime in and clarify things after Di Pol’s description of him.

“I don’t have that swagger at all,” Shoemaker said with a laugh. “Don’t even say that. I just go out there.”

Baldwin City roots “Just going out there” has seemed to work well for Shoemaker ever since he started wrestling for the Baldwin Youth Kids Club at age 7 in the 8-andunder/55-pound weight class.

Shoemaker’s NAIA championship match made Baldwin High School wrestling coach Kit Harris experience déjà vu.

“I was standing in the corner at the Expocentre where Bryce was about ready to get his award and his mom was there,” Harris said. “I said, ‘Melinda, I remember standing right here in this corner, on that rail right there about 10 feet from where I’m standing, and watching Bryce as an 8-year-old kid, winning his first Kids State championship.’”

Shoemaker — or “Shoey” as Harris remembered Bryce’s father, Dennis, yelling — won the Kansas Kids State title match, 2-0.

“It was a great finals match,” Harris said. “It was kind of like his college national championship match, where he got a lead in the same position and had to get a lot of riding time. I remember Bryce was a little, skinny, shaved-head kid and just thinking, ‘He is a competitive little dude.’ It has

— Baker assistant wrestling coach Levi Calhoun been cool just to watch him over the years.”

Harris went on to coach Shoemaker at Baldwin junior and senior high schools. Shoemaker became the only two-time state wrestling champion in Baldwin High history.

Shoemaker started off his Bulldogs career with a bang, winning a state title in his freshman year. He posted a record of 16018 in four years at BHS. That number could have been more impressive if not for a freak injury in his sophomore season, a week before regionals.

“I pretty much ripped my pinky toe off,” Shoemaker said. “I was running around the mat barefoot, and (the toe) got caught on the mat. It pretty much just ripped off.”

Following his recovery from the gruesome injury, Shoemaker bounced back as the state runnerup his junior year but wasn’t satisfied heading into his senior season.

“It kind of added a little pressure,” Shoemaker said. “I mean, I definitely didn’t want to go out just winning state my freshman year.”

Staying close to home As he worked toward his second state title as a BHS senior, Shoemaker was deciding where to compete in college. For years, he had his eyes on the Baker wrestling program, which was in its first season under then-head coach Jimmy May when Shoemaker was a freshman at Baldwin High.

“In high school, I was

just trying to get more workouts with (the Wildcats,)” Shoemaker said. “(May) has always kind of just been behind me and supported me all throughout high school.”

With May at the helm, Baker quickly rose to prominence at the NAIA level, and 70 wrestlers qualified for the national tournament over a fouryear span. That success was enough to convince Shoemaker to sign with the Wildcats. But when May announced that he would be stepping down after the 2012-13 season, Shoemaker had second thoughts. “(May) was the main reason why I signed, but then again, he’s still on campus (as the admissions athletic liaison,)” Shoemaker said. “He’s still around. He was at nationals helping all of us. I don’t think he’s ever going to completely get out of wrestling.”

Bulldog paved the way One of May’s first recruits at Baker was Baldwin High wrestler Alan Callahan. The 125-pounder was a four-time NAIA tournament qualifier and will be staying on next season as an assistant coach for the Wildcats.

Callahan and Shoemaker were separated by a weight class, but they still occasionally practiced against each other.

“He definitely whooped up on me,” Callahan said, “but it was fun having him just a weight class away.”

Callahan, Di Pol and Baker assistant coach Levi Calhoun all raved about Shoemaker’s work ethic, and hope the national title is a sign of things to come, not only for the freshman but the BU wrestling program as a whole.

“Bryce has set a new bar,” Calhoun said. “That’s something that we needed to happen. He’s won that first title. Now, you’re not expected to be an AllAmerican; you’re expected to be a national champion.”

Self: ‘It’s been a fun year’ with young team

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

There are plenty of statistics available for those who wish to proclaim Kansas University’s basketball program the most dominant in the country during the entire 11-year Bill Self era.

Perhaps most impressive is the fact the Jayhawks have won 10 consecutive regular-season Big 12 titles and 10 of 11 overall. Self’s first KU team placed second in the conference.

Regarding postseason domination ... KU, which has been awarded a No. 2 seed in the 2014 NCAA Tournament, has been a No. 1 seed five of the last eight seasons, with a pair of No. 2 seeds and one 3.

In 11 years, the Jayhawks have never been lower than a 4 seed — in Self’s initial season, as well as 2006.

“I think we won 30 games five of the last six years or something like that,” Self said Tuesday on

John Feinstein’s show on CBS Sports Radio. Actually KU, which is 24-9 this season, won 30 games in six of the past seven seasons heading into 2013-14.

“This year I knew it’d be harder to win league because league was so good. You think about 14-4 (in league), that’s good, but you don’t consider it great. But if you look at our league, it is great,” Self added. “We’ve got four nonconference losses: at Florida, Colorado full strength (before Spencer Dinwiddie was hurt), Villanova, San Diego State ... three of those teams were ranked in the top five at one time this year. Colorado made a 30-footer at the buzzer to beat us out there. It’s been a hard year because our record is not as good as I think our talent level is. I think the schedule is obviously the reason for that.”

Self has started three freshmen a majority of the season with a sophomore and junior.

“It’s been a fun year, too,” Self said. “When we play well, we’re really good. When we play poorly, we can drop more than the really good teams drop. Maybe it’s youth or leadership or whatever.

That’s the thing that has been different with this team. Our consistency hasn’t been near as good as what it has in the past.”

Self was asked if there’s any anxiety over the fact his team’s leading scorer is a freshman.

Andrew Wiggins takes a 17.4 points per game average into Friday’s 3:10 p.m. NCAA Tournament opener against Eastern Kentucky in St. Louis.

“No, not really,” Self said on CBS radio. “These freshmen, whether it be Andrew, Ennis (Tyler, Syracuse), Randle (Julius, Kentucky), Parker (Jabari, Duke), whomever ... these guys have been through so much more by the time they get to school from an exposure and pressure standpoint

Greene, who played nearly as many minutes in KU’s two Big 12 tournament games (22) as he did in the six games leading up to them (28), said it did not take long to understand that the postseason was a different animal. Greene said he thought the high intensity of the Big 12 tournament — from pre-game preparation to his time on the floor — was the perfect training ground for what he and his classmates will face this week in St. Louis.

“Being in the game was so much fun,” said Greene, a 6-foot-7, 215-pound forward from Juliette, Ga., who is averaging just 6.7 minutes per game. “But it definitely had a different feel. It was just like a heightened level. The stakes are so much higher.”

KANSAS’ ANDREW WIGGINS SLAPS HANDS WITH FANS following KU’s win over Oklahoma State at the Big 12 tournament on March 13 in Kansas City, Mo. word used by Mason, Greene and Frankamp when describing what changed most in the transition from the regular season to the postseason, but none of them indicated that the do-or-die magnitude had a negative impact on their games.

“It being new, and me being at the college level,

it was definitely good to experience that,” Greene said. “It was just a whole different type of feel, a whole different type of atmosphere. And now we go into the tournament knowing what to expect.”

Both Mason and Frankamp said they believed that having more on the line with each

game would inspire the Jayhawks to sharpen their focus and play their best basketball of the season.

Wiggins, one of the top freshmen in the country, expects to be energized by the excitement of fans in a win-or-go-home-setting.

“Teams aren’t going to have a problem with our length because we’re not as long as other teams,” guard Glenn Cosey told the Associated Press. He is EKU’s top scorer at 18.8 points a game.

“But our pressure and our style of play is different. We play fast. We have good guards. The main thing for us will be our pressure. We’ve just been working on our defense,” Cosey added.

“We knew we were going to face bigger teams, so we need to pressure the ball and just defend. We know we’ve got to play harder.”

Noted coach Jeff Neubauer to the AP: “Even with Embiid out, these guys are attacking the rim. What’s scary about them is how they rebound. I mean, they’re like the 10th best (in margin, +7.3), and we’re (tied for) 10th worst (-6.1). One thing I’ve always stressed is stealing the ball, so that has to be our approach.”

though you turn on ESPN the talk is, ‘Joel Embiid this and that and Kansas, their hopes depend on this,’ we’ve kind of used that as a rallying cry with our guys. “(Self tells players) ‘Hey, we’re good enough,’ which we are. We’re good enough to have success without Joel. Of course, we’d love to have him, but if we don’t, we shouldn’t alter our expectations or our goals,” Self noted.

“It’s not the easiest thing. It’s not like football where you probably have to have two different game plans (depending) on which quarterback plays. It’s not that at all, but it does change up some things. For this first weekend, it shouldn’t be that. We’re not optimistic he’ll play this first weekend at all.” l Forcing turnovers: Eastern Kentucky, 24-9, enters the NCAAs ranked second nationally in turnover margin at +6.3 per game.

San Diego • Fri.

Junior Jarnell Stokes and senior Jeronne Maymon, a pair of 6-foot-8, 260-pound rebounding machines, and 6-6 senior Jordan McRae (shoots threes at a .371 clip and is averaging 18.6 points) make Tennessee a tough, tough out.

Iowa will want to run in today’s game between play-in opponents, but the Vols won’t let them. n No. 4 seed Michigan State: Spartans a popular Final Four pick for a reason. They’re loaded with experienced talent and are healthier than they have been in months.

Worthy of a No. 2 seed, Michigan State is the smart pick to win the East. n No. 8 seed Kentucky: Crazy statements will abound in March, none wilder than those spoken about John Calipari, a lightning rod of a college basketball coach.

Common statement: “He can recruit, but he can’t coach.” Nonsense. His team is the youngest of 351 in Div. I, so the players aren’t always going to look well-coached, because until this year they took most of their advice from AAU coaches. Calipari took Massachusetts and Memphis to the Final Four, facts those who don’t like his personality too eagerly forget. The guy can coach, and although his team is super young, it’s even more talented than it is young. n No. 7 seed New Mexico: Look for teams that have three really good players — preferably one post, one wing and one point. Center Alex Kirk, a 7-footer, is a good college basketball player, combo guard Kendall Williams really good, power forward Cameron Bairstow great.

Joel Embiid scored 16 second-half points vs. the Lobos to turn a one-point game into a blowout.

Schools seeded ahead of New Mexico not as deserving as Lobos: Saint Louis, a No. 5 seed, and 6-seeds UMass and Baylor. n No. 9 seed Oklahoma State: Marcus Smart’s incredible hands force turnovers, trigger fast breaks and bring out the best in talented teammates, which could lead to blowouts. At the end of close games, Smart can hurt his team more than help it because of his desire to take big shots, but if Travis Ford can convince his super sophomore to bank more on Markel Brown and Phil Forte, look out.

Step III: Advance Florida, Michigan State, Creighton and Louisville to your Final Four.

than what kids were 15, 20 years ago. They’ve all been the leader of their respective teams from day one to now. I would say you’d like to have more experience in a lot of ways, but I do think he (Wiggins) is prepared because of all the things he went through this year.” l Embiid update: Freshman center Joel Embiid did not practice on Tuesday and is still listed as doubtful for this weekend. The Jayhawks will practice today then leave via bus about 1 p.m. for the five-hour ride to St. Louis. KU will hold a shootaround open to the public from 2:15 to 2:55 p.m. on Thursday in Scottrade Center.

“We’re preparing like we won’t have him (at all), and then when he comes back, it’ll just be a bonus,” Self said on CBS Sports Radio. “But it is a little different. It kind of leaves your kids in limbo a little bit obviously. Even

front of a big crowd like that,” Wiggins said. “National TV every game.

There’s no negative in playing in front of big crowds. We’ll try to win and give our fans what they want.”

Wiggins said that he wouldn’t hesitate to shoot the ball in the NCAAs. In the conference tournament, he kept firing against Iowa State on a night he scored 22 points off 7-of-21 shooting. He made seven of 10 free throws.

“I kept shooting it. I’ll keep shooting it,” Wiggins said. “The greatest players ever to play the game have games they don’t make shots. I don’t sweat that. The games I’m not making shots, I try to drive, be aggressive. More important is our will to get stops (in NCAAs).”

Of his one and only NCAA Tournament, oneand-done Wiggins said: “I’ll be confident. I play every game like now trying to attack, to win, do whatever it takes to win.”

Iowa State looking for long tourney run Des Moines, Iowa (ap) — The next step for coach Fred Hoiberg and his surging Cyclones would be a long run in the NCAA Tournament.

Third-seeded Iowa State has the pieces to make a push for the Final Four — and the Cyclones are playing their best basketball at exactly the right time.

Iowa State (26-7) beat Kansas State, Kansas and Baylor over three days to win the Big 12 tournament for the first time since 2000. By far the most talented team Hoiberg has had in four seasons at Iowa State opens tournament play in the East Region on Friday night against North Carolina Central (28-5).

We “played three excellent teams, and all three played different styles. Everything we’ve done to this point is (about) playing your best basketball at this time of year,” Hoiberg said.

“Hopefully we’ll build off of what we did in the tournament last week.”

The Cyclones have become a trendy pick in the brackets partly because they’re such a difficult team to plan against.

Point guard DeAndre Kane, the MVP of the Big 12 tournament, is averaging 17 points and a Big

IOWA STATE’S BASKETBALL TEAM CELEBRATES after beating Baylor for the Big 12 tournament championship on Saturday night in Kansas City, Mo. 12-leading 5.8 assists per game. But he’s also one of the best rebounding guards in the country at 6.7 a game, and his ability to post up defenders gives the Cyclones an extra weapon. Georges Niang’s ability to knock down threes and drive to the rim for baskets off spin moves is unusual

for a 6-foot-7 college forward.

While Melvin Ejim might be more of a traditional small forward, he was named the Big 12’s Player of the Year this season and has 32 career double-doubles. The Cyclones have a standout rebounder and energy guy to pair with Ejim in

forward Dustin Hogue, who helps them compensate for their lack of a true center.

They also start a freshman guard on pace to break the NCAA record for assist-to-turnover ratio in Monte Morris and have a backup guard, Naz Long, who twice hit long threes at the buzzer

to help Iowa State avoid losses to Oklahoma State.

The Cyclones also played one of the most difficult and varied schedules in the country, so they’re unlikely to be surprised by a defense.

In addition to a roundrobin schedule in the Big 12, which saw seven of its 10 teams reach the NCAA

Tournament, Iowa State beat Michigan, BYU and Iowa in nonconference play.

The Cyclones aren’t afraid to play from behind, either. They’ve erased double-digit deficits to win eight times and are 7-4 when trailing at halftime.

“We’ve had our backs against the wall against some teams. You think you don’t have a chance.

But then you find a way to pull it out. And again, that all leads to confidence, which is so important ... and we’re a confident team right now,” Hoiberg said.

Iowa State isn’t perfect, of course.

The Cyclones have been known to suffer through stretches of cold shooting and inattentive defense, and they’ve been susceptible at times to opposing big men in the post. But for the most part, Iowa State looks like a team primed for a strong performance in the NCAA Tournament.

“Our chemistry has been very good, and we’ve handled adversity well so far with this group. I’m sure that at some point in every game we play the rest of the season, we’ll be challenged,” Hoiberg said. “So far this team has shown that it handles it very well.”

FIRST FOUR

Albany, N.C. State open with victories The Associated Press

Albany 71, Mount St. Mary’s 64 Dayton, Ohio — D.J. Evans is charitably listed at 5-foot-9. His coach and teammates tease him that he looks a foot shorter.

Yet he stood awfully tall for Albany on Tuesday night.

Evans scored 22 points, including two clinching free throws with 12.6 seconds left, to lead the Great Danes to their first NCAA Tournament victory, over Mount St. Mary’s in the First Four.

Evans, an often overlooked component in Albany’s lineup, belied his height with nine rebounds to go with three assists.

“He’s about 4-foot-8, so he’s really impressive,” laughed his running mate at guard, Peter Hooley, who had 20 points. “I don’t think there’s another 4-8 guard who could go in there and get that many boards. He did what he needed to do to get this win.”

It was a signature vic-

tory for the America East Conference tournament champs, who had come up empty in three previous trips to the big dance.

“It means a lot,” said an emotional coach Will Brown. “There’s no better feeling. Like I told our kids, we’re going to be in the history books at the University of Albany forever.”

The Great Danes (1914) advance to meet overall No. 1 seed and top-ranked Florida on Thursday in Orlando. But that was a concern for another day.

It was a wild game of incredible turnarounds, with the Great Danes bolting to leads of 13-0 and 21-2, only to have The Mount (16-17) bounce back with a 21-2 run of its own to pull even.

Hooley, one of three Australians on the Albany roster, hit two free throws with 2:43 remaining to stretch the lead to 65-62. After Julian Norfleet countered with a bucket, Hooley again pounded his way to the basket and lofted a shot

Tournament teams not so mysterious anymore Manhattan (ap) — Kansas State freshmen Marcus Foster and Wesley Iwundu have never played Kentucky. They hadn’t even seen the scouting film on the SEC powerhouse that was being put together by their coaches.

Yet they were already intimately familiar with them.

You see, Iwundu played on the same Houston-area AAU team as Kentucky freshmen Andrew and Aaron Harrison, which was coached by the twins’ father. Foster played against them on a rival AAU program out of Dallas. And as Iwundu and Foster were trying to usher their Wildcats to the NCAA Tournament this season, they caught plenty of games involving those other Wildcats on television.

“The first thing I

thought about was the twins,” Iwundu said when he saw that No. 9 seed Kansas State would be playing No. 8 seed Kentucky on Friday in St. Louis.

“I knew from the jump, playing against them last summer, that they are going to be pros,” Foster added. “The Harrison twins are very talented scorers. Andrew takes care of the ball well. Aaron can score. And Julius Randle is a monster down there in the paint.”

So much for the Kansas State coaches putting together that scouting tape.

They might as well ask Foster for a run-down.

Which raises a question: Has some of the mystery that made the NCAA Tournament so intriguing over the years been slowly stripped away? After all, there is an ever-ex-

panding summer circuit for traveling teams, and so many games now can be found on television or online, along with expert (and not-so-expert) analysis via social media outlets.

“I don’t know if I buy into that,” Kansas coach Bill Self said. “I always thought the mystery of the NCAA is the potential upsets, and that kind of stuff, where you’re dealing with Cinderellas, and that one player that comes out of nowhere to put his team on their back. There are so many unique stories that come along with this thing.”

They may be unique.

They just might not necessarily be novel.

Think back to 1991.

When Richmond became the first No. 15 seed to upset a No. 2 seed in Syracuse, how many casual

fans knew anything about the Spiders?

Fast forward two decades, when Richmond was back in the NCAA Tournament as a No. 12 seed. Several of their players had grown up on the AAU circuit, competing against friends who wound up at marquee programs.

The Spiders had become regulars on TV. And they were suddenly a trendy pick to spring a couple of upsets, which they did in advancing to the Sweet 16.

“Every team is wellprepared and well-scouted, so players go in, and they’re not caught off guard by what people can do,” Baylor coach Scott Drew explained. “Back in the day, when you were relying on VHS tape, and sometimes you didn’t get all the tape in. I think definitely you could sur-

prise some people at that time.”

That’s not to say there aren’t still surprises. Just ask Georgetown, Duke and Missouri, all of them No. 2 seeds that fell to 15 seeds in the past two NCAA tournaments.

But even then, enough people had heard of the “Dunk City” boys from Florida Gulf Coast before their upset of the Hoyas.

Lehigh and Norfolk State were at least on the radar of college basketball junkies, even if they weren’t necessarily the belles of the ball.

One of the big reasons for that was television.

Even if fans hadn’t seen their games, they at least had the opportunity, whether it was on networks or live streams offered by their schools.

This season, for example, ESPN covered 957 games across its many

platforms. Throw in the games on CBS, Fox Sports and the multitude of other channels, and the number of college basketball games available to fans stretched into the thousands.

Never heard of No. 16 seed Albany? You must have missed the seven appearances the Great Danes made on ESPN3 this season. Scratching your head at their opponent Tuesday night, Mount St. Mary’s? The Mountaineers were on television nine times during the regular season.

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

Dear Nevada: It’s not uncommon for those entering their teen years to behave in ways that are baffling, annoying or rude. Talk to Blue. Tell her how you feel. Explain that sometimes the things she says are hurtful.

Just let her know how sad it makes you. We hope she will be more aware of these things in the future but we can’t promise. Sorry to say, not all friendships survive this stage.

‘The 100’: The kids aren’t alright

Dear Annie: I had to write about your response to “Concerned Cousin,” who worries about two grandparents who take turns sharing the same bed with their 5-year-old granddaughter when they visit her home.

You should have mentioned what happens when men are sleeping: They can have a wet dream or be stimulated by any dream and touch the person in bed with them, and it can lead to sexual touching while they are asleep.

Grandpa should not share a bed with his granddaughter. Sexual molestation is rampant today, and it can start in even the most innocent of ways. Please re-address this letter in your column immediately. — Wyoming Reader Dear Wyoming: We

After the confinement of their space station prison, the kids soak in nature. Earth literally glows with life and promise.

But 100 years of radioactivity have also spawned giant river snakes and two-headed elk with three or more eyes, reminding one of Blinky the Three-Eyed Fish on “The Simpsons.”

Clarke and her party go in search of a mountain compound, where the military stored food and supplies “back in the day.” Others build bonfires and celebrate their liberation without much heed to procuring shelter or supplies.

Meanwhile, back on the space station, the “grown-ups” are engaged in a ruthless power struggle over who gets to be dictator of a dying ship.

Gee, the kids are exploring various facets of “freedom” while many of the parents are literally tyrants. Call the metaphor police!

Just last Sunday, NBC’s “Crisis” had a busload of high schoolers kidnapped by shadowy forces looking to inflict punishment on their powerful parents.

Is TV exploring a brand-new Generation Gap? If it is, things could get interesting.

Struggling to keep dinner reservations on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC).

A family goes missing for a month on “CSI” (9 p.m., CBS).

Olinsky’s daughter becomes a crucial witness on “Chicago P.D.” (9 p.m., NBC).

were saddened at the number of readers who seemed certain that all grandfathers (and apparently some grandmothers) are molesting their grandchildren, intentionally or otherwise. While parents need to be vigilant about these things, it is an insult to all grandparents everywhere to assume that all are pedophiles or lack selfcontrol. While some grandparents (and parents, cousins, uncles, aunts and friends) are indeed untrustworthy, it is terribly hurtful to accuse all grandparents of such horrible things.

Nonetheless, in today’s world, we certainly understand the parents’ concerns.

Tonight: Hang out.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Hopefully you have maximized the past few days.

Be willing to look at what all the recent activity means to you.

Tonight: Make it your treat!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Listen to feedback, and understand what is happening behind the scenes. Tonight: Beam in more of what you want.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be off-kilter today. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You barely can deal with someone and his or her many needs. Tonight: In the moment.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Follow your instincts when dealing with a personal matter. Think in terms of getting together with a loved one. Tonight: Stop at the gym or get exercise some other way.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) A conversation keeps echoing in your mind. Detach from the small story or the minor details. Tonight: Wherever you are, make sure there is music.

Dear Annie: I am a 13-year-old girl whose best friend (I’ll call her “Blue”) has become very rude and even annoying. I can no longer make a comment about something without her answering nastily or adding logic to imaginary scenarios that aren’t intended to be logical. It’s irritating.

We have another friend, “Violet,” who is very creative and loves to draw. So do I. But when I showed Blue a picture I had done, she said, “Violet is way better than you are.” This hurt my feelings, and I was angry. When I consulted Violet, she said Blue had been rude and annoying to her, too.

We don’t want to offend Blue or lose her as a friend, but frankly, we can’t handle her anymore. What should we do? — Red in Nevada
