A swing in his step

LEGISLATURE

House says no to repeal of energy standards

Topeka — The Kansas House bucked powerful business interests Wednesday and killed a bill to repeal state renewable energy standards just one day after the Senate had approved the measure.

SUPREME COURT SCHOOL RULING

Senate sets forth 2 finance plans

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — Kansas Senate Republicans on Wednesday unveiled two school finance plans that would respond to a recent Supreme Court ruling by adding money for poor school districts. But much of the money would come from cuts in other kinds

of education funding.

Unlike a proposal by House Republican leaders, however, the Senate plan would not link the funding changes to policy issues like charter schools or teacher licensing.

“At this point in time, we’re just discussing the finances of it,” said Senate President Susan Wagle, RWichita.

But supporters of the renewable standards say they have boosted the economy by bringing wind development, jobs and investment to struggling rural areas. They pointed to a state study that said the additional wind capacity had an insignificant impact on electric rates.

State Rep. Russ Jennings, R-Lakin, said those seeking repeal were “nothing more than folks who want to exercise political power. This is about wanting to have a win for the sake of having a win without considering the potential benefit all this has.”

The bill would have repealed the Renewable Portfolio Standard, which required major utility companies to have the capacity to generate 10 percent of their energy through a renewable

State Sen. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, was in the House to listen to the debate Wednesday.

“I think representatives were making very good arguments and a lot of different arguments about how this made good sense for their districts,” Francisco said.

She said the issue could always be revived, but she added: “It would be hard at this point to know what would make a difference to change the minds of many of those legislators.”

Utilities have said they are on track to meet the standard.

The Lawrence delegation in both the House and Senate voted against repealing the RPS. On Tuesday evening, Republicans in the Senate approved the bill on a 2515 vote.

circulated in a GOP caucus meeting, that would cost $119.7 million, a little less than the $129 million previously estimated.

But a large portion of that would come from reductions in other kinds of education funding. Those include: l Cutting base perpupil funding for virtual education by more than half. l Eliminating extra money districts get for students who are not proficient at reading and math, but who do not qualify for free meals. l Raising the threshhold for districts to qualify for “high density at-risk weighting” — money meant to address unique needs of urban districts with high poverty rates. l And reducing transportation aid for all school districts.

At the same time, the Senate leadership bill would increase local districts’ authority to levy “local option budgets,”

factors. For instance, in the report’s major scoring categories, Douglas County finished third in health behaviors, fourth in length of life and eighth in clinical care, yet 30th in quality of life, 35th in social and economic factors and 56th in physical environment.

That last score happened in large part because 20 percent of residents reported “severe housing problems,” above the state average of 13 percent. That means those households were either overcrowded (more than 1.5 people per room), overly expensive (cost more than half of household income) or had incomplete plumbing or kitchen facilities.

The Lawrence City Commission hoped to

raising the limit from 31 percent to 33 percent of the base funding they get from the state. But the bill would require that voters in a district to approve any LOB above 31 percent.

In order to make that available to districts next year, Wagle said the bill needs to pass both chambers of the Legislature before April 4. That would give districts time to propose raising their LOBs and hold mail-ballot elections.

The changes in transportation and other weightings add up to $52.8 million, resulting in a net increase in cost to the state of $77.6 million.

For the Lawrence school district, the net effect of the bill — including a scheduled $14 perpupil increase in base aid next year — would be a cut of $2 million. Most of that would come from the cut in virtual education funding, which would cost Lawrence nearly $3 million.

Eudora schools would see a net increase of $595,220, while Baldwin City schools would see a net increase of $409,120.

“We have lots of options. All avenues are

open for discussion,” Wagle said when asked where that $77.6 million would come from. “Our goal is to meet the requirement of the court and provide equity for students across Kansas, and taxpayers.”

An alternative Senate bill, sponsored by Ways and Means Committee Chairman Sen. Ty Masterson, R-Andover, would also restore full funding of equalization aid, but would cut funding for at-risk weighting by 10 percent.

That’s additional money districts get for students deemed to be at high risk of failing or dropping out. Because poverty is considered a strong indicator of that risk, the formula counts students as atrisk if they qualify for free meals under the national school lunch program.

Masterson’s bill also reduces transportation aid and makes other changes in various weightings.

Lawrence would see a net increase of $71,727. Eudora schools would get an additional $616,223, while Baldwin City schools would get $74,290 in new funding.

resolve some of those safety- and health-related issues by passing a rental licensing and inspection program this week.

Douglas County also had rates of sexually transmitted disease infection and violent crime significantly above the state average, though a teen birth rate well below it.

Also, on the positive side, 88 percent of the county’s population has access to exercise opportunities, compared to 71 percent statewide, while only 18 percent of residents are physically inactive, compared to a quarter in the rest of Kansas.

In addition, Douglas County did well in its number of mental health providers and preventable hospital stays, and scored better than the rest of the state in its rates of obesity and smoking.

“I think this commu-

nity has a culture or ethos that values health and good, healthy behaviors,” Partridge said. “I attribute our good scores around built environment, physical activity and health behaviors to that collective mindset in the community.”

Douglas County has ranked in the top 10 since the report first started being published, in 2010.

Student data bill gets through House

House approves property tax bill

Spring cleaning

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — A bill aimed at tightening security on the data that schools collect about students sailed through the Kansas House on Wednesday, despite efforts by one legislator to require collecting more data about the chilSCHOOLS dren of illegal immigrants.

Rep. Amanda Grosserode, R-Lenexa, who serves on the House Education Committee, said it mainly puts into statute many policies already in place at the Kansas State Department of Education.

But it also contains language aimed at satisfying some conservatives who have been critical of what they see as national efforts to create a national database of student data — a project they claim is an outgrowth of the Common Core standards — including information about their families’ political and religious affiliations.

Although KSDE officials have said adamantly that they will not take part in any such program, Senate Bill 367 contains language that specifically prohibits schools or the state from collecting information about students’ or Please see DATA, page 4A

the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair.

The conservators will later prepare a report with their recommendations for the panorama’s preservation, due in late spring or early summer.

Bill Sharp, co-author of a biography on Dyche and director of research administration at KU, said Dyche was so dedicated to the panorama that, during the world’s fair, he built a living quarters underneath one of the mounts, sleeping there every night for nearly a year.

Topeka — After nearly three years of disagreement between business interests and local governments, the Kansas House passed a bill Wednesday that would clarify how certain large, complex pieces of commercial and industrial property are taxed and appraised.

House Bill 2643 is aimed at facilities like ethanol plants, oil refineries and fertilizer manufacturers, where the difference between a “building� and a “piece of equipment� often is not plainly clear.

An earlier version of the bill would have made it easier for the owners of those facilities to have those facilities reclassified as machinery and equipment, as

Public looks ‘behind the glass’ at KU’s 120-year-old panorama

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @GilesBruce

Several dozen members of the Lawrence community took a look “behind the glass� of the Kansas University Natural History Museum panorama Wednesday night. Not literally, of course — that would require a hazmat suit.

Attendees of the public lecture at the KU Commons did get to learn more about the history and ongoing conservation of the 120-year-old exhibit fea-

turing North American plants and animals, one of the oldest and largest panoramas in the world and most popular attractions at the museum.

Conservators have spent the past several weeks behind the glass (in white hazardous materials suits, to protect against the toxic chemicals used by taxidermists around the turn of the 20th century), meticulously cleaning and examining the panorama, which was originally created by then-KU professor Lewis Lindsay Dyche for

County approves permit for plant

Man will stand trial for multiple charges

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

A 34-year-old Lawrence man will go to trial in June on multiple charges including attempted first-degree murder in connection with an early morning shooting last month.

On Wednesday, JD Turner pleaded not guilty to attempted first-degree murder, criminal possession of a firearm by a felon, aggravated assault

“What he created was a sensation: well-maintained animals in their natural habitat,” Sharp said, noting that the exhibit was viewed by up to 20,000 people a day. “It became clear to the Legislature that Kansas had something worth preserving.”

Noting the exhibit’s popularity, state lawmakers approved funding for the 1902 construction of Dyche Hall, where the panorama has been housed ever since.

opposed to real estate, thus making them exempt from property taxes.

A Legislative Post Audit report from 2013 estimated that passage of the bill would have reduced property tax revenues statewide by as much as $170 million to $500 million.

with a deadly weapon and domestic battery.

Turner, who is in jail on a $350,000 bond, appeared in Douglas County District Court, where District Judge Michael Malone set a June 23 trial date.

Turner is accused of shooting Anthony Wisdom during a confrontation in the early morning hours of Feb. 14 at L.R. “Dad” Perry Park. During a preliminary hearing earlier this month, Wisdom testified that he suf-

fered nine bullet wounds on his arm, abdomen, pelvis and leg. He said he ran for cover in a wooded area after Turner started shooting and dialed 911 once he heard Turner drive away.

The shooting allegedly spawned from a dispute between Turner and his live-in girlfriend, Rebecca Wadkins, who is also Wisdom’s longtime friend. Wadkins testified in court earlier this month that Turner gave her a black eye during a

fight the day before the shooting and that Turner later saw a Facebook message sent from Wisdom to Wadkins that expressed Wisdom’s desire to “put hands on” Turner. Wadkins said Turner then brandished a gun and demanded Wadkins tell Wisdom that Turner wanted to meet him in the park.

Malone also set a May 30 motions hearing Wednesday to precede the jury trial.

Conservator Ron Harvey says examining the panorama has been “like walking inside a painting.” The plants and animals were placed just so, to give viewers the illusion of being in nature.

So cleaning and assessing the exhibit, he said, has been “like ballet, yoga and trying to levitate.”

“Looking down on folks on the other side of the glass is pretty cool,” he said. “Kids … really like it when they tap on the glass and we wave.”

Harvey called the exhibit the “most important North American panorama,” adding: “We want to this stay around another

100 years. … You are incredibly lucky to have this in your backyard.”

Museum director Leonard Krishtalka noted how groundbreaking the exhibit was for visitors to the 1893 World’s Fair. “To them, it was a never-seen world of nature,” he said, “transporting them magically … from Chicago … to the Great Plains, the Rockies.”

“We knew it was magic because it is magic for the Legislature to appropriate funds for the university,” he joked, to laughter from the crowd.

Turning to seriousness, Krishtalka said the museum has the same goal

in mind that Dyche did more than a century ago: preservation. “Just like the animals and plants outside the panorama, the animals and plants inside the panorama are in danger of disappearing,” he said.

After the museum receives the conservation report in a few months, “We’re going to bring the community into the panorama — metaphorically speaking,” he added.

“We want the community, we want all of you, to give us your best ideas for reimagining the panorama for the future and yet preserving its legacy as an American cultural treasure.”

helped broker a compromise that appeared to leave both sides relatively satisfied.

“We can live with it,” said Larry Baer, assistant general counsel for the League of Kansas Municipalities.

As amended, the bill now puts into statute what had previously been “guidelines” from the state’s Property Valuation Division about how county appraisers should treat such property.

sue were probably brought forth within the Common Core debate,” Grosserode said. “However, the issue of data security and some of the parameters contained within that were agreed upon by a wide plethora of individuals. You can run the gambit about political ideologies, and they were all concerned about the data security piece, and to a certain extent about the data collection piece.”

The bill passed, 119-4, but not before Rep. Allan Rothlisberg, R-Grandview Plaza, tried to add two amendments that would have dramatically altered the bill.

The first would have re-

those guidelines were not being followed uniformly from county to county.

“Moving forward, I think we have a procedure in place by which we can reasonably appraise and understand what we’re doing,” Edmonds said.

The bill codifies vari-

ous ways to determine whether a facility is used as real or personal property.

It also sets out a process for making that determination in advance for new projects receiving 10-year tax abatements, either through economic development incentives

“

For instance, if the data show a significant portion of a district’s graduates who are pursuing post-secondary education are enrolling in remedial courses freshman year, then districts may use that information to determine if a change in instructional focus is needed.”

— Denise Kahler, KSDE spokeswoman quired students to show proof of lawful presence in the United States the first time they enroll in a district, and for the district to report each year to KSDE the number of students who could not show documentation. KSDE then would have been required

to post an annual report on its website showing the cost incurred by the state of educating children of undocumented residents.

That amendment was ruled out of order for not being germane to the underlying bill.

His second amend-

A temporary business permit for a concrete batch plant in southeast of Lawrence received approval from the Douglas C o u n t y Board of Commissioners COUNTY WednesCOMMISSION day, despite opposition from nearby residents.

The board originally intended to vote on the matter a week ago, but nearly a dozen residents dissented, prompting the commissioners delay the vote and seek more information on the batch plant’s operation.

Residents were concerned that dust from the batch plant, to be located at 1535 North 1300 Road, would cause health issues and property damage. The commission then stipulated that the applicant, Emery Sapp & Sons Inc., draft a dust control plan to meet the approval of Keith Browning, the public works director.

“It doesn’t totally eliminate dust, but it very significantly decreases the amount of dust,” Browning said at the meeting.

The board’s approval is also contingent upon an air quality test conducted by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said Commissioner Jim Flory, third district.

Additionally, the permit specifies that the batch plant can only operate between dawn and dusk. Linda Finger, the county’s planning resources coordinator, said the plant does not plan to operate more than 155 days of its 32-month lease, which ends in late November 2016.

The concrete from the plant will be used for the completion of the South Lawrence Trafficway project.

or because they are funded with industrial revenue bonds, so that the owners will know at the start how their property will be classified once it comes back onto the tax rolls.

Baer said local governments still have concerns about an amendment added in the House by Rep. Scott Schwab, R-Olathe, which gives special treatment to cement manufacturing plants, declaring a long list of items at those facilities as personal property that will be tax exempt. The amendment

mainly benefits two cement plants in Allen and Neosho counties.

Edmonds said he thinks that amendment is insignificant. But Baer said it may set a precedent, opening the door for other industries to come to the Legislature in future years asking for similar special treatment.

Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug said it was not immediately clear whether the bill would have a fiscal impact on local governments in the county.

ment would have prohibited KSDE from spending any money to create or maintain a “longitudinal database” of student data — or data about individual students collected over multiple years to keep track of their progress over time.

Rothlisberg said he thinks it’s dangerous to allow the government to compile “dossiers” about citizens. But KSDE officials said the longitudinal database is important to measure student progress and to identify areas where instruction should be improved.

“For instance, if the data show a significant portion of a district’s graduates who are pursuing post-secondary education are enrolling in remedial courses freshman year, then districts may use that information to determine if a change in instructional focus is needed,” said KSDE spokeswoman Denise Kahler.

That amendment was turned down on a voice vote.

The bill now goes back to the Senate, which may request a conference committee.

Woman will stand trial for charges of felony battery

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

When police found the 26-year-old Lawrence woman who allegedly struck her boyfriend with his vehicle during a dispute last month, she too bore noticeable injuries, according to an officer’s testimony Wednesday.

Georgianna Aguilar, 26, will stand trial in May on felony charges of aggravated battery Aguilar and leaving the scene of an accident involving great bodily harm. She pleaded not guilty to both charges in Douglas County District Court Wednesday after a judge bound her over for trial.

In jail on a $20,000 bond, Aguilar wiped away tears as Lawrence police officer Nicholas Simon

recounted an hours-long interview conducted with her on Feb. 17. Aguilar was later arrested after questioning that afternoon in connection with the incident involving Ryan Ingram, with whom Aguilar shared a home.

Simon testified Wednesday that Aguilar told him she, Ingram and three other friends had been drinking that morning before an argument between her and Ingram ensued as he drove her and two of their friends in his Ford Excursion.

The argument, she told Simon, concerned Ingram wanting to purchase more alcohol and Aguilar disagreeing. Eventually, Aguilar told Simon, Ingram instructed their two friends to leave the vehicle “if they didn’t want to get beat up like she was about to get beat up,” Simon testified.

According to testimony, Ingram backhanded Aguilar and, as she described, began “hammer-fisting” her with both hands. Eventually, Si-

mon said, Aguilar described opening the passenger-side door and beckoning Ingram to come around and hit her again; as he made his way around the front of the SUV, Aguilar told Simon she took the wheel and drove off.

She wasn’t sure if she struck Ingram, Simon said, but she saw him on the ground while a bystander tended to his head.

When Simon found Ingram’s vehicle near an apartment at which Aguilar was also found, it had damage to its mirror and windshield. Aguilar also was hurt. “I could immediately tell she was injured,” Simon said.

He described lacerations to her head and bruises “all over her body.” And when she spoke, Simon said, he noticed a tooth “broken in half.”

On Wednesday, Aguilar’s attorney, Napoleon Crews, requested a reduction in bond from $20,000 to $5,000, but prosecutors said Aguilar had eight failures to appear in court since 2008 and District Judge Kay Huff kept the bond as is.

Police: Man arrested after swinging large chain at officers

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

A 57-year-old Lawrence man was arrested late Tuesday after he swung a footlong heavy metal chain as officers attempted to serve a municipal warrant and a Taser was later used on a relative after he tried to interfere.

Carl Leory Athey and Edward Lee Athey, 61, of Lawrence, were arrested on suspicion of assaulting a law enforcement officer and obstruction — in addi-

tion to failing to appear in municipal court — after 10 p.m. Tuesday.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman, said officers went to a residence in the 100 block of Michigan Street to try to serve a municipal warrant. As officers tried to handcuff Carl Athey, McKinley said, he quickly reached into his jacket and pulled out a heavy metal chain, swinging it at the officers.

Athey dropped the chain after an officer drew his

handgun, McKinley said, but Edward Athey later approached officers as they handcuffed Carl Athey. McKinley said an officer used his Taser to subdue Edward Athey after he had raised his fist “in what appeared to be an attempt to strike an officer.”

Both men are in Douglas County Jail and bond has not yet been set. Carl Athey faces a tougher charge of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer.

Multiple gasoline thefts reported

By Stephen Montemayor Twitter: @smontemayor

Lawrence police are investigating a dozen incidents in which gasoline has been stolen from parked vehicles. The incidents began in September and last occurred as recently as early this month.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman, said most of the incidents have occurred in the past 10 days. Apparently a suspect is using a drill to make a hole in the bottom of the vehicle’s gas tank to drain the fuel. McKinley said many of the ve-

hicles being targeted are trucks and SUVs. The incidents have occurred at the following locations, McKinley said: l 200 block of Pinecone Drive (apartment parking lot) l 711 W. 23rd St. (Budget Rent-a-car) l 3700 Clinton Parkway (parking garage) l 1301 W. 24th St. (apartment parking lot) l 927 New Hampshire St. (parking garage) l 2511 W. 31st St. (apartment parking lot) l 800 block of New Hampshire St. (city parking lot) l 725 Vermont St. (parking garage)

l 1339 West Campus Road (sorority parking lot) l 725 Vermont St. (parking garage) l 1015 Mississippi St. (apartment parking lot) Police have not identified a suspect, McKinley said. If anyone notices suspicious activity around parked vehicles, police ask them to call 911.

Anyone with information about the crimes are asked to call CrimeStoppers at 843-8477. Calls to CrimeStoppers can be anonymous, and callers may be eligible for a reward up to $1,000 for information leading to an arrest.

KU Hall Center receives $500,000 The Hall Family Foundation has given $500,000 to endow the directorship of the Hall Center for the Humanities at Kansas University, KU announced Wednesday.

The permanently endowed fund will provide support for salary, travel and advancement of the directorship.

The center’s current director, Victor Bailey, said in a news release from KU that he knew of no other humanities center with an endowed directorship and that the gift would ensure the Hall Center continued to attract “the caliber of leadership it deserves.”

The Hall Center may be best known by the

public for bringing highprofile speakers to town through its Humanities Lecture Series — Pulitzer Prize-winning author Junot Díaz was the most recent, with CNN senior legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin coming in April.

The center’s overarching mission is to stimulate and support research in the humanities, arts and social sciences, especially of an interdisciplinary kind, according to the university. The center brings together faculty and graduate students from various disciplines to build on ideas and share their knowledge within the university and with the wider community.

VOICES FOR PEACE

By Nadia Imafidon

W

ith powerful soloists, rich harmonies and a warmth that sends a message of peace and love to any audience, it seems the language it is delivered in makes no difference.

At least not for critically acclaimed Soweto Gospel Choir, a South African ensemble who sing in some of their 10 official languages including English, Xhosa, Zulu and Sotho.

Music is a universal language that speaks to the heart, says Soweto Gospel Choir singer Shimmy Jiyane.

Touring to multiple cities across North America to celebrate their 10year anniversary album, Divine Decade — the group has been together for 12 years this year — Jiyane says they feel at home in America. Of course, performing in South Africa is different because the lyrics can be better understood, but it makes no difference in reception, Jiyane says.

“A language barrier is only a problem if you’re having a one-on-one conversation,” he says. “But with music, there’s something that speaks to the soul. There’s something about music that speaks to the heart and the mind.”

Soweto Gospel Choir’s music ‘speaks to the heart and the mind’

Soweto Gospel Choir performs traditional South African gospels and celebratory songs learned as young children in the church, as well as covers of many Christian cultures, reggae, and American popular music.

On the latest album the group sings a breathtaking rendition of Sarah McLachlan’s “Arms of an Angel” and “I Will Be There” by Jackson 5, with a few powerhouse soloists taking the lead among harmonious background vocals.

They will bring this joyous music to life onstage at the Lied Center at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, with traditional high-energy choreography, percussion djembe rhythms and traditional clothing in bright colors and with vibrant patterns. The group last performed at the Lied Center in 2008, and has collaborated with Bono, Josh Groban, Cat Stevens, Annie Lennox, Black-Eyed Peas, Diana Ross, Celine Dion, Aretha Franklin, and Stevie Wonder.

“All of our songs have a positive message,” Jiyane says. “All of our

songs are simple. They are about experiences of life that we’ve been through. All about freedom, joy, peace and happiness.”

The group will also pay its respects to the late South African leader Nelson Mandela with some of his favorite songs including Johnny Clegg’s “Asimbonanga.” Clegg wrote the song in 1987 calling for the freedom of Mandela from imprisonment.

“The meaning of that song is, we haven’t experienced what he’s been through, we haven’t seen what he’s been through, but with what he has been through, he came out stronger,” Jiyane says.

Formed in 2002 after choir directors David Mulovhedzi and Beverly Bryer held auditions to recruit members, in hopes that the uplifting sounds of South African gospel music would resonate globally. Within three weeks of the first album release, Voices of Heaven, that year, they reached the number one spot on Billboard’s World Music Chart. Five more albums later, they’ve won the

IF YOU GO What: Soweto Gospel Choir When: 7:30 p.m. Saturday Where: The Lied Center, 1600 Stewart Ave. Info: lied.ku.edu American Gospel Music Award for “Best Choir” and “Best International Choir,” an Emmy, and several Grammy awards.

Looks like the Mulovhedzi and Bryer were onto something.

“We are the reality of an idea,” Jiyane says. “We really honor the people who work for us. Those that you don’t hear of. Those are the guys who actually worked really hard to get us to where we are right now.”

The music has kept the heartache and pain at bay of family members who have passed away during this journey or before they saw all of their successes. Together, all 24 of them, they are unified.

“We see each other as family now,” Jiyane says. “We go beyond the point of individuals or friends.

If I’m stressed out I have a friend. A shoulder I can lean on, a shoulder that I can cry on.”

New exhibit explores America’s secret war on Laos

By Nadia Imafidon nimafidon@ljworld.com

For all of us here, the Vietnam War ended about 40 years ago, Tommee Sherwood says.

Those who are still affected have been forgotten.

From 1964 to 1973, the U.S. dropped a planeload of bombs every 8 minutes, 24 hours a day, for nine years in Laos, totaling 2 million tons of ordnance, according to Legacies of War. This organization is dedicated to raising awareness of the war’s impact on the Southeast Asian country and mobilizing advocacy for U.S. funding of bomb clearance.

About one-third of the bombs never exploded, LOW states, leaving at least onethird of the land across all 17 provinces in the country contaminated, still maiming or killing people today.

Lawrence resident Tommee

Sherwood traveled to Laos with his wife, Patty Martella, in 2007 in sheer curiosity of the small country. Not realizing

he was curating an exhibit at the time, he continued to collect images, taken by him and Martella, and materials that represented such beautiful, yet devastating terrain.

“Whenever I tried to talk to anyone about this issue, I’d just get blank stares, so I decided to make an attempt to illustrate what I was talking about,” Sherwood says. “If you travel there at all, you become aware real fast that there’s bombs all over the place.”

He reached out to Legacies of War, and they sent a box of textiles, silk prints, old photographs and reproductions of artwork done in the ’70s by refugees whose villages had been bombed. A friend Sherwood met in Laos had gone on a kayak trip down a river, and he took photos of his fiberglass-constructed kayak next to a couple of canoes that were made from bomb cases.

“

We’ve got some sad and disturbing images, but we’ve also got images of beauty and hope.”

— Tommee Sherwood, Lawrence artist “It’s kind of startling,” Sherwood says. “He went into a village and they had a whole bunch of these lined up on a fence and they were getting ready to make some more.”

The first-ever “Hard Rain — Living with Bombs in Laos” exhibit at the Percolator started to come together as he became more aware of other connections and available materials.

Middle Twin: new name, new EP

By Nadia Imafidon nimafidon@ljworld.com

The last time I spoke with Middle Twin, they were Brain Food, and that name change inspired quite a few changes that have done wonders for this quickly evolving local electronic pop sensation. These guys know what they’re doing, but not without a solid army of contributors.

THE BAND FORMERLY KNOWN AS BRAIN FOOD performs at 8 p.m. at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St. Six months later, they have a fresh seven-track EP titled “City of Gold” to get back on the scene as a more mature, developed and arguable brand new band. Get a hold of one at the free EP release party (no excuse not to go) at The Bottleneck at 8 p.m. tonight, along with locals Forrester, Narkalark and The Phantastics.

Vocalist Demi Renault has completely assumed role as frontman; her captivating stage presence and incredible voice making her the most memorable from each show, Davis says. And with experienced producer Isaac Flynn on drums, his trained ear has helped them develop a cleaner sound with a bigger emphasis on Renault’s melodies and Joel Martin’s beats (pay attention to how he plays MPC pad with one hand and keyboard with the other on stage). They’ve embraced the beauty of open space.

“Back in the day I feel like we were always trying to add more and more to our songs to make

them more interesting,” Davis says. “Now I feel like we’re learning it’s better to take away from our songs. We don’t need as much as we thought we needed. The songs carry themselves.”

Davis credits both band newcomers with substantial influences; Flynn with his professionalism, talent and positive energy, and Fitzgerald for being a “music freak” in tune with the music scene on local and national levels.

“Fitzgerald has such an appetite for new music, new things and new influences,” Davis says. “He’s got amazing taste.”

The two fit naturally into their unnatural personality as a band, and by that, they will admit to being a bunch of goofballs.

Recently released music video for “Savoir Faire” off the new EP flashes scenes of the dancing band mates in various colors, and it captures them well.

“That music video is us,” Davis says.

Directed by Weston Allen (Lawrence native)

in the East Lawrence Arts District, he agrees the outlandish video came together in a concept fitting for his clients (really, they’re all good friends): a psychedelic Aesopica about stage diving eggmen. Allen, based out of Chicago, tossed around several ideas —clouds, mannequins, and children playing with paint — that he could quickly gather shots of to edit over the course of two months.

To mirror closely their evolved electronic sound (as opposed to their last video by Allen which was more alt-rock) he worked heavily with computers and scanners. They couldn’t have found a more dedicated, hardworking filmmaker for their team, Davis says, and he fits perfectly into the Middle Twin equation.

“They’re bombastic storytellers not afraid to get their feet wet,” Allen says. “They’re humble mad scientists. They trust me to live up to the standard of their dexterous weirdness, and vice versa.”

FINAL FRIDAY PREVIEW

By Margie Carr

On tap for March: the art of questioning claim them as our own before they go on to bigger and better things.”

Works in this collection were influenced

by Metzger’s childhood on a farm in southeast Minnesota and watching his parents at work, his father in his work shed, and his mother in the kitchen.

“I am continually fascinated how these two worlds collide to create new meanings and understandings,” he says in his artist statement.

The Roost Another printmaker on display is Matt Kuhlman, whose show is featured at The Roost, 920 Massachusetts St. “Brick and Mortar” is a reflection on man’s built environment.

“The buildings we construct and the cities we establish are very intentional efforts at shaping the world as we desire it,” Kuhlman says

in a statement. “I make pieces that try to offer perspectives that highlight different qualities of the man­made world and addresses some of the larger questions.”

Questions such as: What is practical and efficient about the structures? Why some buildings are viewed as impressive and others as ugly? And finally, what does the style and structure of our buildings say about our society?

‘Symbols and Secrecy’ Still other questions and observations were on the mind of artist Jeremy Scott when he created the works for his show, “Symbols and Secrecy” opening this Friday at the Bourgeois Pig, 6 E. Ninth St. An exploration of the connections between religion and government, the works are meant to provoke.

“The visually symbolic images in my work each represent text, and as such, represent a certain amount of implied secrecy,” he says. “Each piece can be interpreted purely as visual imagery or decoded to include their textual denotations.

The choice lies squarely with the viewer.”

Oklahoma imports Viewers on Friday can also check out Henry’s Coffee Shop, 11 E. Eighth St., which is exhibiting the work of four Oklahoma artists, Tanner Frady, Ashley Smith, Katie Rake and Elijah Scott. Stop by and meet the artists from 6­to 9 p.m. before dropping by the Arts Center to bid on the silent auction artwork.

Course of history isn’t inevitable

Icy idea A seasonal ice rink by the new library could be a nice addition to downtown.

T

he idea of placing a seasonal ice skating rink on the plaza between the city’s new library and the parking garage on Vermont Street is worth a look.

The Lawrence Public Library board of trustees has expressed some concerns that a rink would detract from other planned uses for the plaza, but even the trustees acknowledged the idea “has a nice community draw to it.”

The plaza is envisioned as a site for outdoor concerts and other programs sponsored by the library. However, such events aren’t likely to occur during the winter months, when a skating rink might be a great attraction for both the library and the rest of downtown.

The Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department has hired an architect to determine what it would take to modify the plaza to accommodate a temporary ice rink. The department says it appears the plaza could hold a 60-by-80-foot rink with space for about 125 skaters at a time. Officials envision a rink that could operate during the winter months and be disassembled and removed to make room for other events the rest of the year.

There are a number of factors to consider, and a resolution approved by the library trustees correctly asserts that any changes to the space “should not significantly negatively affect the overall library space or function.” Nonetheless, the resolution also acknowledged the “space should support multiple uses,” of which ice skating might be one — if the project fits within certain parameters.

Parks and Rec is looking at the feasibility of both real ice and artificial ice for the rink. Artificial ice, a slick, smooth plastic-like material that works with regular ice skates, would be less expensive because it wouldn’t require electricity to keep ice frozen during mild spells during the winter.

It also would allow the rink to operate at any time of the year — but that shouldn’t be in the plans. With artificial ice or real ice, the rink should be available for a few months in the winter and then removed to make room for other events. It’s also important that the rink be reserved only for public recreational use and not be taken over for large chunks of time by any local ice hockey leagues.

With such limits in place, the rink might be a nice winter recreation option, as well as a draw for downtown and the library.

Libraries aren’t just about books any more, and one of the goals for Lawrence’s new public library is for it to be a focal point for a broad variety of community activities. A seasonal ice rink seems like an activity worth investigating.

Brussels — President Obama has spoken once again during the Ukraine crisis about being on the right “side of history.” It’s one of his signature lines, but he should stop: The phrase implies there’s an inevitability to the advance of progress and justice. Would that it were so.

What’s happening now in Vladimir Putin’s Russia is a reminder that history has ebbs and flows, advances and retreats, and that its interpretation is subjective. Even more, recent events are a warning that decisive turns in history can result from ruth-

“

Even more, recent events are a warning that decisive turns in history can result from ruthless political leaders, from weak or confused adversaries, or sometimes just from historical accident.” less political leaders, from weak or confused adversaries, or sometimes just from historical accident. Might doesn’t make right, but it does create “facts on the ground” that are hard to reverse.

Putin’s real problem is that he’s on the wrong side of NATO. This stance was a loser for his Soviet predecessors, and it’s likely to be so for Putin — as long as the West keeps its head and doesn’t take impulsive actions that would play into Putin’s hands. A cautious NATO didn’t send troops into Hungary in 1956 or Czechoslovakia in 1968 to counter Soviet aggression, to catcalls from conservatives, but it decisively won the Cold War. Putin’s putsch in Crimea has had one profoundly pos-

itive effect on Obama and the West. It has produced what NATO Commander Gen. Philip Breedlove last weekend called a “paradigm shift” in perceptions of the Russian leader. “What ... has changed in this paradigm,” Breedlove explained, is that a Russia that “used to be a partner (is) now acting more like an adversary (which) puts force at-ready on our borders. And we have to be positioned differently and be more ready.”

By annexing Crimea, Putin has indeed altered the framework in which the U.S. and other countries evaluate Moscow’s actions. Presumably this repositioning of Russia was part of what Putin intended, but it’s a risky strategy that has produced diplomatic, economic and military responses from a united West. Putin leads what by most political and economic indicators is a weak nation — a declining power, not a rising one. Russia has a pugnacious, revanchist leader who is willing to use force, but that’s a recipe for victory only if the West capitulates.

Breedlove was careful in discussing NATO military options. “Moving forces is not a trivial matter,” he said, noting that it would be hard to counter a Russian army

at the Ukrainian border that is “very, very sizable and very, very ready.” But given the destabilizing effects of a Russian invasion of eastern Ukraine, NATO should prepare some deterrent to further aggression, other than jawboning.

Listening to the conversation among Americans and Europeans at a recent conference here, I came away with a sense that Putin’s gambit will fail over time, if Europe and America remain resolute and patient. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Deshchytsia told me his country is determined now to join the European Union — remaining at peace with its neighbor to the east, if possible, but “absolutely” prepared to fight Russian troops if they invade eastern Ukraine.

The real challenge, said Deshchytsia, is to make a success of Ukraine’s “Euro-revolution,” as he called it. “We need to start reforms today,” he explained, from the country’s corrupt financial system to its weak military. He made his comments in a session I moderated at the Brussels Forum, sponsored by the German Marshall Fund (of which I’m a trustee).

Obama gets pounded daily by conservatives, who imply that he invited Putin’s

PUBLIC FORUM

Tax misuse To the editor: I was shocked to read of the The Cave bar located in the Oread Hotel building, its blatant promotion of irresponsible alcohol abuse and its possible liquor license violations.

What disturbs me most, however, is learning that a tax financing district covers this noxious bar use. This special tax district means that property taxes and sales taxes collected are not going into the public coffers and are actually being rebated back to the development group of the hotel building. Our city, county and school district are losing money because of that special tax district.

I, for one, would rest easier knowing that those lost tax dollars aren’t being redirected to promote alcohol abuse. One way we could prevent that misuse of tax dollars is to look at creating a list of “disallowed uses” for any taxpayer supported projects, and a bar/tavern use would be at the top of that list. The Eldridge Hotel has a good history of managing more responsible bars, so I am certain that the issues will be seen to. But supporting this type of use with public tax dollars is an issue we should address now.

sion to stay in her home with her memories. She knew where everything was, and took care of her home very well. We knew that if she were forced to move she would become disoriented.

The move would shorten her life and her quality of life.

In Lawrence, we ridicule an old woman for wanting to stay in her home. We cannot comprehend why she would not want to make lots of money by selling. The developer even made access to her home more difficult. Why didn’t the city protect her rights?

Why didn’t the developer try to make her life better. Is everything always about the almighty dollar? I think Lawrence has lost its heart. The future for seniors in our fair city does not look good.

Lies and deceit

To the editor: I’m tired of all the GOP lies and deceit. For example, the Republicans say there is too much government, but guess who added Homeland Security and Medicare Part D? How about security?

Who was on watch when the biggest failure in national security — 9/11 — occurred?

And the economy; who in 2008 caused the biggest economic downfall since the Great Depression? Then there’s the increase in the national debt that Republicans To the editor: claim is the president’s fault, What is wrong with us? but they conveniently forget When my mother was in her about the increases in the def90s, we respected her deci- icit created by the following:

attack on Crimea. But since the crisis began, Obama has actually been quite firm. The U.S. pushed Europe to adopt sanctions by announcing its own first, and NATO made some prompt military moves to reassure Poland and the Baltic states. The U.S. has also moved quietly to help Ukraine cut nearly a third of its Russian gas imports by yearend, and dispense with them entirely by 2020.

The key for Obama is to stay the course he has begun, and to work closely with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Hopefully she will be an “iron lady” in this crisis, as she was in dealing with Europe’s economic meltdown. Putin has seemed contemptuous of Obama, but he may be less so if the president is acting in concert with Merkel.

The communists of a century ago talked about the inevitability of their triumph. History was an inexorable dialectical movement toward their side, they thought. How wrong these historical determinists were.

The battle for democracy is fought anew each time, and nowhere is it preordained that the good guys will win.

OLD HOME TOWN two unfunded wars (Iraq, trillions) and (Afghanistan, trillions); Medicare Part D (billions); two tax cuts (trillions), and Homeland Security (billions). Who originally created those deficits that were basically passed on to the current administration?

Also, what about the biggest lie they don’t mention: weapons of mass destruction in Iraq? Oh, and don’t forget individual freedoms. Republicans boast that they will fight for your individual freedom — as long as you are not a woman, gay or a minority! The same with wages and wealth — only the top 1 percent count on their playing field. And finally, Republicans say they want to reduce entitlements; what they never say out loud is that this reduction would include Social Security! And at the same time never mentioning that Medicare Part D is, in reality, an entitlement they created.

To reiterate, I’m tired of Republicans making accusations and blaming others when it was their own actions that precipitated these very problems and increased the deficit.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 27, 1914: years “Lawrence people ago last night heard IN 1914 of the secrets and mysteries of the gyroscope and the ultra violet ray in one of the most interesting popular scientific lectures ever offered on a lecture course.

Prof. Montraville Wood was the scientist to lead the audience at the last number of the course last night. Prof. Wood comes from the Edison laboratories where he has been associated with that great scientist in some of the most wonderful inventions and discoveries of the age. With him was his daughter, a young lady who possesses much of her father’s talent. She assisted him last night in his lecture here.... No doubt you know that Prof. Wood had an ultra violet lamp, that he made a connection and there were the rays, the light that has such wonderful powers and which in time is surely destined to become of great practical value.... Then there was that portion of the address given over to the gyroscope, an instrument that is apparently destined to play a great part in aerial navigation....

Prof. Wood predicted that some day the manufacturers of automobiles would recognize the possibilities of the gyroscope and then autos would be two wheeled and the cost of tires reduced to one-half. By the use of a small gyroscope the car on two wheels would maintain its balance perfectly.”

BRIEFLY Possible jet objects elusive in search Kuala Lumpur, Malay— They are the most tantalizing clues yet: 122 objects spotted by satellite, floating in the Indian Ocean where officials believe the missing Malaysian jetliner went down. But bad weather, the passage of time and the sheer remoteness of their location kept answers out of the searchers’ grasp.

Nineteen days into the mystery of Flight 370, the discovery of the objects that ranged in size from 3 feet to 75 feet, offered “the most credible lead that we have,” a top Malaysian official said Wednesday.

Aircraft and ships from six countries combed the waters far southwest of the Australian coast. Crews saw only three objects, one of them blue and two others that seemed to be rope.

But search planes could not relocate them or find the 122 pieces seen by a French satellite. Limited by fuel and distance, they stopped for the night.Forecasters warned that the weather was likely to deteriorate again Thursday, possibly jeopardizing the search for the Boeing 777. sia

Authorities say Wilkins, who had two previous felony convictions, had a blood-alcohol level that was nearly twice the legal limit.

She was convicted last month of second-degree murder, drunken driving and hit-and-run.

Judge: Inmates’ rights violated Oklahoma City — An Oklahoma judge voided the state’s execution law Wednesday, agreeing with inmates that a “veil of secrecy” preventing them from seeking information about the drugs used in lethal injections violated their rights under the state constitution.

Oklahoma is among the states that have promised companies confidentiality if they will provide the sedatives or paralyzing agents used to execute condemned prisoners, and went beyond that to prevent information from being revealed even in court.

Oklahoma County District Judge Patricia Parrish ruled Wednesday that preventing inmates Clayton Lockett and Charles Warner from pressing their claims in a courtroom went too far.

Political instability spurs wheat prices Wichita — Political instability in Ukraine — coupled with potential freeze damage to winter wheat in the United States and a deepening drought in some major wheat producing countries — are conspiring to significantly drive up wheat prices, economists say.

U.S. Wheat Associates, the industry’s trade group, said in a recent report that concern over the political situation in Ukraine — which supplies 6 percent of the world’s wheat export market — was one of the factors for the price spikes. Crimea accounted last year for about 7 percent of Ukraine’s grain exports. The Black Sea region is one of the world’s major wheat producing areas, with Russian wheat alone accounting for almost 11 percent of the world’s export market.

But the group’s market analyst, Casey Chumrau, also said in her report that weather worries were the primary fuel for a 15 percent increase in wheat futures prices for hard red winter wheat during just 13 trading days at the Kansas City Board of Trade.

Droughts in some major wheat growing countries and potential freeze damage stemming from subzero temperatures that hit the U.S. plains in January is now showing up.

Darrington, Wash. — Washington authorities on Wednesday reduced to 90 the number of people missing from a community wiped out by a mudslide, as the families and friends of those still unaccounted for begin to confront the reality that some may never be found.

— a verdict prosecutors said vindicated the Obama administration’s strategy of bringing terror suspects to justice in civilian court.

A federal jury deliberated six hours over two days before finding Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, 48, guilty of charges that included conspiracy to kill Americans and providing support to al-Qaida.

Abu Ghaith, a Kuwaitiborn imam who married bin Laden’s eldest daughter about five years ago, is the highest-ranking al-Qaida figure brought to trial on U.S. soil since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

He could get life in prison at his Sept. 8 sentencing.

SPRING SPORTS PREVIEW • LAWRENCE HIGH

In like a Lion ...

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Embiid too fun to leave for pros I hope that Kansas University freshman center Joel Embiid returns for a second year. My motives are pure, as in purely selfish.

Another year with Embiid at center, and the chances of a KU Final Four run increase greatly. I love covering the tournament, especially the Final Four.

So don’t think of yourself, Joel, think of me. Come back, come back, come back to where you still belong.

Come back, Jo Jo. He returns, and the never-dull Allen Fieldhouse crowd watching the remarkably graceful, skilled, Hall of Fame-bound 7-footer from Cameroon roars louder than a Beatles audience.

Since it’s all about me, I hope that Embiid buys the nonsense that so many seem to believe, which is that he can’t possibly improve as an NBA player.

You’ve heard it: “The only place to develop his body and skills is in college. He’s not ready!” That might have merit with low-level prospects, but when an NBA franchise invests an extremely valuable high draft pick, plus millions in compensation, it takes big steps to develop that player’s body and game. It protects and nurtures its investment.

All projections have Embiid going off the NBA draft board in the top three selections in the draft. Can’t do better than that. He could do worse next year in the event he encounters more back woes and it makes teams skittish, but that’s a minimal risk for Embiid and no risk at all for me.

All parents want their sons and daughters to pursue careers they love and for them to get well-compensated. That’s why so many help to finance their children’s educations. The NBA’s ready to pay Embiid to play basketball and will prepare him to do it well.

“College degree required” is not in the job description.

I hope that he so enjoys life as a college basketball player that he delays starting the meter. My life is far more interesting with him in a KU uniform for as many as 40 more games than if he went to the NBA, which I don’t cover. He must stay. I’m not ready to see him go.

Some of Lawrence High’s spring sport teams return state-tournament experience.

Others have ambitions of making it to the top this season.

All of the athletes are optimistic at this point in the year,

players haven’t forgotten their 2-0 loss to Manhattan in the 2013 Class 6A regional finals, falling just short of reaching the state tournament.

The Lions bring back a lot of experience to avenge that frustration and reach their Baseball goal of state this season.

KU assistant has ‘unbelievable’ year Feds OK

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Jerrance Howard, who played for Bill Self at the University of Illinois, now knows what it’s like to work for his former coach.

“Unbelievable,” the 33-year-old Howard said of his first season on Self’s Kansas University basketball staff.

“I am a lot better even as a person, as a husband and definitely as a coach. The preparation ... how I watch film and evaluate players in recruiting, just a lot of stuff I didn’t know in just playing for him. It’s a lot different working for him. Being on staff, having a relationship with coach as well as coach (Norm) Roberts and coach (Kurtis) Townsend ...

I feel more confident about myself as a person and as a coach,” Howard added.

Howard, who replaced first-year Florida Gulf Coast

head coach Joe Dooley this season, said the fact he played for Self, “makes my job a lot easier as far as relating to the guys, knowing what coach wants on and off the court — just helping guys, being positive and upbeat and bringing energy to practice.”

It’s also helped that “I’m not too far removed from the game when I played (2000-04),” Howard said.

Sophomore Perry Ellis said having Howard around this season was definitely a plus.

“He came in and did a great job,” Ellis said. “As a younger coach, he can relate to us and communicate with us players. Especially the new players ... he did an awesome job with them, getNick Krug/Journal-World File Photo ting them ready for games.

Peoria, Ariz. (ap) — James Shields gave up seven runs in the first inning Wednesday before settling down to throw three scoreless innings in his final start before opening day in the Kansas City Royals’ 9-5 loss to the San Diego Padres.

Shields gave up six hits, walked one and hit a batter as the Padres sent 11 to the plate in the first. Shields allowed only one hit after that and finished with a 4.74 spring ERA. “They were just hitting groundballs that found some holes,” Shields said. “I was trying to stay aggressive. Walking the first guy didn’t help.

But other than the first inning, I thought it was a pretty good effort.”

Shields will start Monday at Detroit as the Royals try to end a 28-year postseason drought, longest in the majors.

Padres starter Ian Kennedy yielded solo home runs to Alex Gordon and Salvador Perez on consecutive pitches in a twoinning stint that included three runs and six hits.

Perez left in the third after he was hit in the head by Johnny Barbato’s curveball. A team spokesman said he didn’t sustain a concussion.

“The one Perez hit was hit hard. The one Gordon hit was a flyball the wind got,” Padres manager Bud Black. “Pitch count (53) was a little high for two innings.”

Robbie Erlin, a candidate to start for San Diego while Josh Johnson (forearm) is sidelined, allowed six hits and struck out six in five shutout innings.

Starting time Royals: Five times in the first inning, the Padres swung at Shields’ first pitch. It resulted in four hits and a sacrifice bunt.

“Last game of spring training, they’re swinging early,” Shields said.

Padres: It was a mediocre spring for Kennedy, who finished with a 6.33 ERA. He’s scheduled to start San Diego’s second regular-season game Wednesday against the Dodgers.

Perez scare Perez was the batter who hit the liner into Cincinnati reliever Aroldis Chapman’s face last week, causing a facial fracture that required surgery.

This time, the catcher was on the other end of a scary incident, being hit in the head with a pitch.

“I’m fine,” Perez said through a team spokesman.

Trainer’s room Royals: Reliever Louis Coleman, who has a 13.50 ERA this spring while pitching with a bruised right middle finger, will stay behind in Arizona and is expected to start the season on the disabled list.

NFL to experiment with PATs Orlando, Fla. — The NFL will experiment with extra-point kicks from the 20-yard line for two weeks in the preseason this summer, but implementing longer PATs for the regular season has been tabled.

Chicago — The Chicago Bears were looking to jolt their struggling defense. How does adding Jared Allen sound?

The Bears agreed to a four-year contract with the five-time Pro Bowl defensive end Wednesday, replacing one accomplished pass rusher with another as they rebuild a defense that ranked among the league’s worst last season.

A person with knowledge of the agreement told the Associated Press that Allen will get $15.5 million guaranteed on a deal that could be worth as much as $32 million. The person requested anonymity because the terms have not been announced.

Allen’s deal can be voided down to three years and $24 million, but the first two years of his salary and a roster bonus next March are fully guaranteed.

The 31-year-old Allen spent the previous six years with the NFC North rival Minnesota Vikings. He will take over for Julius Peppers, who signed with Green Bay as a free agent after being released by the Bears. Chicago’s defense ranked 30th in the NFL last season and was 32nd and last against the run.

Allen also had talks with the Seahawks and Cowboys. His move to the Bears adds plenty of intrigue to the NFC North picture.

exhibition games before making any decisions on a permanent switch.

On Wednesday, the owners also rejected proposals to move kickoffs to the 40-yard line and to allow more than one player to be placed on injured reserve, then return to the roster during the season.

Also rejected: subjecting personal foul penalties to video review; permitting coaches to challenge any officiating decision except on scoring plays or turnovers, which automatically are reviewed; and eliminating the first preseason cutdown to 75 players.

Adopted on the final day of the spring meetings were proposals to extend the length of the goalposts 5 feet to 35 feet to better determine if kicks are good; to no longer stop the clock on sacks; and to allow video reviews on plays with a recovery of a loose ball on the field even though the play had been whistled dead.

As expected, no vote was taken on expanding the playoffs, although the topic was discussed.

Djokovic defeats Murray Key Biscayne, Fla. — Novak Djokovic benefited from an erroneous call in the pivotal game Wednesday to beat Andy Murray, 7-5, 6-3, in the quarterfinals of the Sony Open.

The disputed point occurred on the first point of the 12th game, with Murray serving at 5-6. Djokovic charged forward to volley a short ball and hit it for a winner.

Murray argued — and TV replays confirmed — that he should have be awarded the point because Djokovic’s racket was on the other side of the net when he hit the ball, but chair umpire Damian Steiner disagreed.

Lions

Senior Thomas Irick, a three-time state qualifier who took eighth at state last year, is expected to be one of the top singles players in Class 6A. Sophomore Elliott Abromeit and junior Adam Eudaly also return from last year’s team that finished 10th in the Sunflower League.

Despite many fresh faces, coach Chris Marshall and the Lions hope to get a boost from seniors Panyin Boye-Doe and Matt Carmody, along with freshmen Michael Braman and Sam Allen.

LHS will start its season at 3 p.m. Tuesday in the Emporia Tournament.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Senior catcher Drew Green highlights the returning players from last year’s 15-7 team. The Lions will also have senior outfielder Kieran Severa, junior shortstop Michael Sinks, sophomore Parker Kirkpatrick in the infield and senior Jacob Seratte in the outfield.

On the mound, senior Brandon Bell will look to repeat his success last year, when he earned first-team All-Sunflower League honors. Senior Bryce Montes de Oca, a Missouri signee, is returning from Tommy John surgery and hopes to be back in mid-April.

The Lions believe junior Nate Hulse and senior Doug Easum can help the team out in the infield while junior Zach McAlister can provide depth on the mound.

LHS opened its season with one win and one loss against teams from Oklahoma last weekend. The Lions will go on the road to face Topeka Seaman at 6 p.m. Friday.

Softball First-year softball coach Joe Dee Tarbutton is excited about all of the talent on Lawrence High’s softball team.

The Lions will have a veteran infield with junior Morgan Byrn, senior Marly Carmona, senior Kristen Gile and junior Kenzie Garvin.

Add in right-handed pitcher Megan Sumonja and lefty Jolona Shield, along with senior outfielder Andrea Mills, and there’s plenty of reason to believe they will improve on last year’s 7-13 record.

Sophomore catcher Katie Murrish and sophomore infielder Sophie Taylor are also expected

All four members of that relay team — Pope, Gabler, Jensen Edwards and Kyleigh Severa — have returned to run for the Lions this spring. to make big contributions for the Lions this season.

LHS will start the season on the road against Shawnee Mission Northwest at 4:15 p.m. on April 3.

Track Lawrence High’s girls track and field team returns many athletes who contributed to last season’s third-place finish at the state tournament, while the boys look to improve after taking last in the Sunflower League.

The girls bring back every member from their 2013 state champion 4x400 relay team: junior Leah Gabler, junior Jensen Edwards, junior Marissa Pope and sophomore Kyleigh Severa.

The Lions will also have discus state champion junior Matia Finley and her twin sister, Rebecca Finley, who took secondplace in the discus and eighth in the shot put.

Senior Caitlin Broadwell will help the girls in the triple jump, and senior Katie Lomshek

leads the team in the high jump.

“We are young and should improve as the season goes on,” coach Jack Hood said.

Senior Erik Parrish took fourth place last year in the triple jump and will anchor the boys team along with Nick Benton.

The Lions open the season at 3:30 p.m. today in the Topeka West Classic.

Girls swimming Lawrence High’s girls swimming team had plenty of success last season, and expectations remain high with 37 swimmers and divers on this year’s roster.

Seniors Allison Williams and Mary Wroten bring plenty of experience, along with juniors Alex Ginsberg, Nicole Kelly, Hannah Lee and Nicole Oblon. The Lions are hopeful senior Gretchen Frick, who finished in second place in the 200yard individual medley and third in the 500-yard

freestyle at state last year, will return, as she is still undecided about swimming this season.

“We are a young team with 18 freshmen, many new to swimming,” eighth-year coach Kent McDonald said. “They are going to need to learn different strokes and get into swimming shape quickly.”

After taking fifth place in the Sunflower League and eighth at state last year, the Lions are confident they can count on freshmen Brittany Archer and Mary ReedWeston to make a big impact this year.

LHS opens its season at the Emporia Invitational at 4 p.m. today.

Boys golf Lawrence High’s boys golfers found plenty of success last year, taking ninth-place at the state tournament. A repeat performance will take strong seasons from their seniors.

The Lions need senior Narito Mendez, who shot

an 82 at the state tournament last season to finish in 40th place, and senior Tucker Sutter to post low scores while the younger players develop.

“Our two seniors are great leaders,” coach Dirk Wedd said. “They will have a chance to have big years.”

Junior Brent Cawhee, who finished in 86th place in the state tournament, returns from last season’s varsity rotation, while the Lions add sophomore Dawson Dykes, sophomore Braxton Olson and freshman Cole Brungardt.

The boys golf season will begin Monday in the Shawnee Mission South Invitational at Meadowbrook.

Boys tennis Thirty boys came out for Lawrence High’s boys tennis team this season, which should help develop players quickly and provide a good atmosphere in practice on a team that has only three returning lettermen.

Girls soccer Following a 1-15-1 season, Lawrence High’s girls soccer players are out to prove that they are much improved.

The Lions return senior defenders Danielle Campbell, Laura Neilsen and Whitney Simons, along with senior goalkeepers Alex Ewy and Elsa Regan, who should make it difficult for opposing teams to score.

On the offensive front, senior forward Addison Campbell will combine with senior midfielders Gretchen Hierl and Kayla Duncan, and juniors Keeli Billings and Sadie Keller.

“We have a renewed sense of purpose,” second-year coach Justin Young said. “The team has been pushing hard in the offseason and really working to get better. We also have a great amount of senior leadership returning.”

Freshmen Carson Drake, Skylar Drum and sophomores Erin Ventura and Elaine Harris are expected to play plenty of minutes in their first varsity season.

The Lions opened the season with a 2-0 victory over Pembroke Hill on Tuesday and will face Baldwin at 7 p.m. Tuesday at LHS.

Self said Howard brought his own bubbly personality to the program without any prodding from the head coach.

“It’s not anything I told him to do. He has to be who he is,” Self said.

“Myself, Kurtis and Norm ... we are a little bit older and stuff. We needed some youthful enthusiasm. Jerrance has been good for us. He has an understanding of what kids like and what we know.

“My way of communication is to call ’em (players and recruits) and talk on the phone. It’s not the way they like to do it much (in age of social media).

Jerrance is very helpful. I think sometimes kids can make decisions based on emotions. Recruiters are good at playing to those emotions. The younger you are, We the more you enjoy needed that kind of some stuff.”

It’s a good feeling they look at me sometimes as a bigbrother figure. They know they can come to me for help. It’s good.”

Howard said he also learned a bunch at his previous stop. He worked at SMU last year for one of Self’s mentors, Larry Brown.

“Coach Brown is one of the best. He’s big-time. He and coach Self are similar as far as philosophy, defensive minded guys who get players to overachieve and play hard,” Howard said.

“It was great being around coach Brown. At the same time, he’s really no different than coach Self.”

Howard said there is a family atmosphere at both programs. He and wife Jessica have a son, Jerrance Jr., and daughter, Jaya Brooklyn-Rose.

“They love it,” Howard said of KU. “My son is big-time. He is not your typical 5-year-old that just wants to wear KU gear; he watches every game, every possession of it. Coach from day one had my wife involved with what’s going on with the move and the transition. It’s been really good.”

Of getting to coach in Allen Fieldhouse, Howard, who has also worked at Texas A&M, Illinois and Kentucky, said: “I tell people all the time ... you can’t explain it. You have to experience it. It’s one of the best atmospheres I’ve been part of.”

Yes, Howard would like someday to run his own program.

“It’s going to be hard to leave this place. I’m not in a rush,” Howard said.

“I definitely want to be a head coach in the future. I’m just enjoying the process of learning from coach and getting better and developing.”

WR Coleman turning heads son at Garden City Community College. Asked if he thought the extra time gave Coleman a lift and was the reason for his strong spring, Weis brought it back to simple football.

“I think the fact that we’re throwing to him a lot has given him some extra energy,” Weis said.

“When you line up, the most attention goes to Harwell first and Tony (Pierson) second. When Coleman is the isolated guy, he’s (facing) a lot of one-on-one (coverage). He’ll get a lot of one-on-one. If you don’t have anyone that’s getting open on the singlereceiver side, you’ve got a problem. He’s been getting open, so that’s a positive.”

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

While newcomer Nick Harwell continues to impress both in the passing game and in a leadership role, Kansas University’s first six spring football practices have produced another name to watch at wide receiver.

Rodriguez Coleman, a 6-foot-3, 195-pound junior-college transfer who caught eight passes for 208 yards and a touchdown in three starts in 2013, has, according to KU coach Charlie Weis, performed as well as any player on offense so far this spring.

“He’s done a really nice job,” Weis said earlier this week. “He’s a long way from being a polished guy, but he’s big, he’s fast, and catches most everything that’s thrown to him. He gets open.”

The reasons for Coleman’s fast start to his first spring in Lawrence are many and include the approach of first-year wide receivers coach Eric Kiesau and the impact of KU’s new offense.

athletes receiving compensation, among other benefits.

The government agency’s ruling, which said the players have the right to form a union because they fit the definition of “employees,” under federal law does not apply to public universities, but that doesn’t mean it did not catch the attention of leaders at Kansas University.

For now, it seems that KU officials are doing little more than monitoring the situation, because, at this time, the push from the Northwesternbased College Athletes Players Association is to unionize athletes at pri-

“Eric is doing a really nice job with fundamentals and techniques and route definition,” Weis said.

“So that’s been improving steadily with these guys.”

During the offseason, Coleman, a junior, gained an extra year of eligibility after learning he had been granted a medical red-shirt for his first sea-

vate schools because the federal labor agency does not have jurisdiction over public universities.

Still, the ruling carries substantial weight as the play-for-pay debate continues in the multi-billion-dollar college athletics industry.

“Any time something of this magnitude takes place, we watch it very closely,” KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger told the Journal-World on Wednesday afternoon.

“It’s important to remember that issues like this are often multi-dimensional and anyone who says they have great knowledge about these recent events or attempts to predict the future would simply look foolish.”

According to an Associated Press report, an employee is generally regarded by law as someone

who receives compensation for a service and is under the direct control of managers. Players in this case argued that their scholarships were compensation — handed out in return for athletic, not academic, performance — and the coaches were their managers.

Northwestern officials, however, argued that college athletes, as students, don’t fit in the same category as factory workers, truck drivers and other unionized workers.

Led by former Northwestern quarterback Kain Colter, who helped establish CAPA, the union’s goals would include guaranteeing coverage of sports-related medical expenses for current and former players, exploring better procedures to reduce head injuries and even allowing players

pursue commercial sponsorships.

When reached through a spokesperson, KU football coach Charlie Weis deferred his comments to the KU administration.

Demonstrating the reach of Wednesday’s news, KU swimming and diving coach Clark Campbell took to Twitter to offer his opinion that the ruling brings college athletics toward “dangerous territory.”

According to the AP report, Colter said nearly all of the 85 scholarship players on the Northwestern roster supported the push to unionize.

“It is important that players have a seat at the table when it comes to issues that affect their well-being,” Colter said in a statement issued by CAPA after the ruling.

Austin, Texas — Kansas University’s Lindsay Vollmer won the shot put portion of the heptathlon and was in third place overall after four of seven events Wednesday at the Texas Relays.

Vollmer won the shot put with a mark of 12.4 meters (40 feet, 8 1/4 inches). She was second in the 200 (24.45 seconds), third in the 100 hurdles (13.81) and tied for 14th in the high jump (1.6 meters, or 5-foot-3).

Vollmer has 3,367 points to trail Brittney Howell of Penn State (3,442) and Arkansas’ Alex Gochenour (3,431).

The Texas Relays multievents will conclude today.

“When we call a personnel group, I don’t think there’d be a ‘Should I go out or should I go out?’

They kind of know. For the first (several) days, that bounced around some, but I don’t think that’s bouncing around so much right now.”

Eight is enough?

Weis and offensiveline coach John Reagan said earlier this week they had eight guys on the offensive line about whom they felt pretty good at this point in spring drills.

That’s not the end goal, of course, since they would like to have a solid two-deep at all five line spots established before heading into the season.

But given that the O-line is one of the questions surrounding this team and that they’ve only had a handful of practices to work in the new offense, both coaches seemed pleased with the progress up front.

“I’m not discouraged at all,” Reagan said. “I’m encouraged by their knowledge and their attention and their work ethic.”

Northwestern officials expressed their disagreement with the ruling and said they planned to appeal to labor authorities in Washington, D.C. “While we respect the NLRB process and the regional director’s opinion, we disagree with it,” the statement read. “Northwestern believes strongly that our student-athletes are not employees, but students.

Unionization and collective bargaining are not the appropriate methods to address the concerns raised by student-athletes.”

In a written statement, the NCAA later backed this stance by saying, “We frequently hear from student-athletes, across all sports, that they participate to enhance their overall college experience and for the love of their sport, not to be paid.”

Omaha, Neb. — Three pitchers combined to throw a four-hit shutout, and Kansas University won its first midweek baseball game of the season against Creighton, 11-0, on a cold and windy Wednesday at TD Ameritrade Park.

The Jayhawks (17-8) combined for 16 hits on the night, tying the stadium record for most hits in a game by any team in TD Ameritrade Park history, including the College World Series. In ad-

dition, Kansas recorded its third shutout on the season and first against Creighton (11-7-1) since May 4, 2013, when the Bluejays were blanked 6-0 at Illinois State.

“That was a really cold night to have that kind of offensive performance,” KU coach Ritch Price said. “I thought our guys did a really good job.”

Junior right hander Drew Morovick (5-1) allowed just three hits over 52⁄3 innings, and though he struck out two, he walked four.

Freshman righty Ste-

phen Villines tossed 21⁄3 scoreless innings, surrendering just one hit and recording two strikeouts. Junior Dakota Smith closed out the ninth in 13 pitches, striking out one of the three batters he faced.

Kansas will host Oklahoma in a three-game series beginning 6 p.m. Friday at Hoglund Ballpark.

Dear Annie: My parents are both in their 80s and don’t get around well anymore. Dad has a history of verbal (sometimes physical) abuse, and Mom has always put up with it. Recently, Mom has been cornering family members and telling them how crazy Dad is, that he screams at her all the time, hits her with his cane and pinches her.

We had a domestic relations caseworker come to the house when Dad wasn’t home, and Mom told the caseworker that everything was fine and not to come back. She told me Dad would be upset if he found out.

My mother is in better physical shape than Dad, and I’m quite sure she could hurt him if she chose to. But she is becoming forgetful and making mental errors. My wife and I have

begged her to come live with us, but she refuses.

She wants us to tell Dad’s doctor that he is crazy. I don’t think he’s crazy. He’s a depressed man whose body is failing. He was prescribed antidepressants, but won’t take them. Mom tells Dad that she’s sick of him, and he says he can’t stand looking at her. But apparently, they can’t live without each other. Any advice?

Series displays ‘helicopter parenting’ “Surviving Jack” 8:30 p.m., Fox) proves that even failed sitcoms can be “interesting” in their own miserable ways.

“Jack” takes place in 1991. Oncologist and military veteran Jack Dunleavy (Christopher Meloni) has decided to pull more of his weight as a father when his wife, Joanne (Rachael Harris), begins law school on a full-time basis.

Jack is gruff and taciturn with his naive 16-year-old son, Frankie (Connor B u c k ley), and his more worldly and acad e m i c daughter, Rachel (Claudia Lee).

Not unlike “The Goldbergs,” “Jack” is based on personal recollections and has a “you had to be there” quality, which an eclectic period soundtrack (from M.C. Hammer to Violent Femmes) cannot dispel.

For all of his feigned indifference, Jack becomes embroiled and then overinvolved in the kids’ lives. A generation ago, comedies about teens and children minimized the role of moms and dads, recognizing that not long after entering grammar school, children began to see themselves as a separate species.

As recently as “Freaks and Geeks,” a show from 1999 that was set in 1980, the role of the parents was minimal, with mom and dad serving as a concerned dinner table sounding board.

How things have changed.

Over the past two weeks, three series — “Crisis,” “The 100” and now “Jack” — have arrived with stories about parents who are extremely enmeshed in their teenagers’ lives. Add “The Goldbergs” and “About a Boy” to the list of comedies where teen characters’ identities are tied up in their parents’ intentions and expectations.

While tinged with nostalgia for decades past, “Jack,” “The Goldbergs,” “Fisher” and, to an extent, “Boy” are very much comedies of the current “helicopter parent” era, with parents maintaining tight emotional, monetary and behavioral control from cradle to early middle age. And all of the micromanagement, manipulation and desperation leave little room for laughs.

couples fall into a dysfunctional pattern of behavior and cannot envision living any other way. You cannot force Mom to confirm abuse to the authorities, nor can you make Dad take his antidepressants.

Nonetheless, if your mother is showing signs of dementia, and Dad is abusive, you need to be more proactive.

Ask each parent whether you can accompany them to their doctor for a checkup.

That will give you the opportunity to discuss the problem. You also can write the physician or call and leave a message with all the pertinent information.

Please keep an eye on their situation, be attentive to Mom’s complaints, and try to get both of them out of the house, individually, as often as possible.

ne of my favorite memories I have of my grandma and grandpa’s house is the lively rose and hydrangea bushes that lined the eastern entrance of their elegant abode.

The fragrance and appearance of these shrubs is present in my memories of childhood summer visits. This is no doubt one of the reasons I have a true affinity for these living beauties, and hope to one day accomplish a similar quality of landscaping for my own home entryway. In the meantime, I can head over to Howard Pine’s Garden Center and Greenhouse and dream about the myriad possibilities of home gardening.

If you take North Third Street out past I-70 you will see Howard Pine’s tucked away on the right side of the street. This is where you will find Jerry Pine, son of Howard Pine and current greenhouse operator, carefully tending to needs of the plants and generally managing business.

During my visit, I scurried around the grounds with him as he simultaneously told me about the Pine family’s long history and prepared the outdoor pansies to withstand the cold front moving in that night.

It is, indeed, a long history! The Pine family has been farming here in this exact location since the mid-1800s, although it wasn’t until 1962 that Howard Pine’s Garden Center and Greenhouse was established. Operating on about 2 acres of land (much smaller than what it used to be), you will find a plethora of veggies and flowers here, ready to be welcomed into your own home garden.

Much of what is sold here is local, and it’s all plant growth regulator (PGR) free. There is even a large sign

The garden center and greenhouse is extensive and glorious. If you, like me, need a hint as to what to purchase in the next few months, this is the advice I was given: purchase your broccoli, cauliflower and potatoes now; shrubs, trees, perennials in April; and annuals, tomatoes, peppers, etc. in May. While I don’t yet have that fabulous rose bush that my grandma had, I’d guess regular visits to Howard Pine’s — and chats with the knowledgeable employees — will put me right on track to one day make grandma proud.

BEDROOMS

Closet clothing purge You’re not going to need thick-knit sweaters, heavy jackets or anything fur-lined for the sunny season.

It’s time to wade through your winter collection and find a place to store it for next year. Bring out your favorite shorts, skirts and maxi dresses of the season, and take some time to decide which of these things you regularly wear. Donate or discard (if worn out) untouched items. Think of it as a nice spring cleanse.

Finally, organize the remaining wardrobe and breathe a sigh of relief. Hardest task done.

Don’t forget: l Strip the bed down completely, air out the room by opening the windows and wash all bedding (as you would regularly). Vacuum and flip mattress, and spritz with fabric freshener before reapplying sheets. l Run a vacuum over the floor, especially after moving the bed. Put away anything that might have found its way under there (because you surely didn’t do that).

OFFICE

Clean the computer/laptop First things first, clean the keyboard and ports with a can of compressed air to blast away any crumbs, hair and dust between the keys. Other computer maintenance includes cleaning out files that you no longer need that are taking up space and slowing down your computer. Consider investing in an external hard drive to save past projects you’ll surely need again. Never hurts to have a backup.

Don’t forget: l Clean off your desk. No more putting it off; go through the stacks of paper piled up and throw away anything unnecessary. l De-clutter and dust your bookshelves.

Clean the washing machine It seems a bit counter-intuitive, but even the machine that does the cleaning needs to be cleaned every once in a while.

Minerals in detergent and soap scum are likely to build up over time, not to mention the dirt pulled from your clothing and trapped in the machine, which prevents clothes from getting as clean as they used to get.

Spring gardening to-do’s

S

pring is finally here and our “spring fever” has reached an apex. The average frost date is not until April 20, and soil should not be worked when it is wet, but other than that, the time has come. Below are some general items to start your gardening season with. Cleaning up is the most important task, so hold off on the season starters even though this is where our temptation pulls us.

GENERAL CLEANUP l Cut ornamental grasses back to 3-5 inches before new growth starts. l Clean flower beds, removing the blown in leaves and the dead foliage. This prevents the rebirth and regrowth of many insects and potential problems (this is especially true for iris). l Remove winter mulch on old roses. l Turn the compost pile. l Remove tree stakes if the planting is more than a year old. Cut off all ropes and wire. l Remove dead or injured branches and generally prune trees if needed. l Prune spring-flowering shrubs (i.e. forsythia, lilac) only after they bloom. l Mow to remove winter debris but not more than a half-inch less than your turf recommendation. l Refresh the mulch around trees and perennial plants. l Clean water gardens and restart the pumps.

Plants can now be set off the bottom and onto the marginal shelf.

SEASON STARTERS l Get a soil test. This will provide a good look at what your soil needs in the way of nutrients. l Add compost to help build the soil for improved growth. l If weeds are an issue with you, a broadleaf herbicide can be applied now to help control weeds like dandelions, henbit and chickweed. l Crabgrass preventers can be effective now, but

don’t do this if you plan to over-seed. l Water only if it is extra dry. Over-watering now makes turf weak. l At this point in the year, lawn fertilization is not recommended. Fall is the proper time to fertilize. l Cut flowering branches (forsythia, pussy willow) to enjoy inside. l Fertilize spring bulbs. (Bone meal works well.) l Plant cool-loving annuals (i.e. pansies, snapdragons, calendulas). l Start seeds of annuals inside to transplant outside after danger of frost or sow directly in the ground after last frost. l Prune apple, pear and cherry trees when tem-

peratures are above 20 degrees; peach and nectarines just prior to blooming. Prune grapes, raspberries and blackberries. l Uncover strawberries when new growth begins (be ready to cover with fabric at night if threat of frost). l Plant cool-weather crops: onions, lettuce, radishes, spinach, broccoli, cauliflower, beets, cabbage.

TIDY UP. When cleaning your home for spring, don’t forget to clean outside by doing things like cleaning out your gutters and tidying lawn.

Spring clean outside

W

hen it comes to spring cleaning, remember the outside of the house needs some loving, too!

Clean the gutters.

Despite all the newfangled gutter cleaning tools out there, the best way to clean a gutter is still with a pair of gloves, a ladder and a garden trowel or gutter scoop. Start from the down spout and work your way to the end of each gutter run. Reattach any loose gutter spikes, check for leaks and patch any holes or worn spots. Angle gutters 1/2 inch per 20 feet for proper water flow.

Clean the rain barrels.

Drain away stagnant water and use a high-pressured garden hose to

loosen and remove debris that has accumulated in the bottom of the barrel.

Clean the tops and sides of the barrel.

Tighten all fittings and replace the filter screen.

Clean the air conditioner.

Clear away vegetation and debris within 2 feet of the housing. Use a brush or vacuum to remove dirt and debris from the fins. Spraying the air conditioner with water may cause damage. Make a note to change the filter before the day is done.

Clean the windows, inside and out.

Use a squeegee and a bucket of cleaning solution or wipe away dirt with newspaper and spray on window cleaner.

A KC Fashion Week Recap

E

lizabeth and I were fortunate enough to attend this season’s Kansas City Fashion Week earlier this month. We enjoyed a blogger gathering backstage with goodie bags from one of its sponsors, Ulta Beauty, and mingled with fellow fashionistas. There was high energy before the show with the models getting the finishing touches on their hair and makeup, and everyone rushing to their seats.

DESIGNERS

The Saturday night show drew in a large crowd and was held in the gorgeous Union Station, where there was plenty of room to enjoy the featured designers and document the night.

The show had seven designers, including the well-known Laura Kathleen, who has been featured on Elizabeth Kennedy/Special to the Journal-World “Project Runway.” Her collection

be staples in your closet, and the collection reminded me of that.

Among the talented designers, there was also a 17-year-old designer named Kate Walz who blew us away with her collection. It incorporated intricate designs and bold color combinations.

WHAT WE WORE

Elizabeth and I went back and forth on what to wear to this type of event.

We didn’t want to be overdressed, but we also didn’t want to be under dressed. We were shooting for something in the middle.

Fashion week should be your pass to go all out and show your creativity.

We don’t typically dress outlandishly, so we stuck with a slightly dress-up version of our typical style. I chose an all-lace number in a nude/pinkish tone and nude sandals. The head-to-toe neutral look is a huge trend right now so that’s sort of what I was going for.

Elizabeth wanted to be a little more edgy and paired leather pants with strappy black-heeled sandals, a floral top and a leather jacket.

Every time I cover Kansas City Fashion Week, I always say this, but it’s so true: It really is growing each season and is quickly becoming one of our favorite fashion-related events that we look forward to. If you’re interested in attending Kansas City Fashion Week, check out its Facebook page (facebook.com/kcfashionweek) for updates and its website (kcfashionweek.com) for the upcoming season and ticket information.
