By Peter Hancock

Kansas University’s Lawrence campus may have to give up $9.4 million in state funding over the next two years, with most of that money being shifted to its medical school to increase the number of doctors who practice in rural areas.

A budget subcommittee of the Kansas Senate recommended those moves Wednesday. The full Senate Ways and Means Committee will consider the proposal today.

“I think it’s a very good use of our dollars to expand that medical infrastructure, that student load, so we can have

Lawrence school district teachers typically spend part of the afternoon on early-release days together for collaboration sessions. But on Wednesday, the faculties at Deerfield Elementary and West Middle School were interrupted by district officials who came to hand out Teachers of the Year honors.

Sara Bonner, a music teacher at Deerfield, and Lucinda Crenshaw, a science teacher at West, were named this year’s elementary and secondary Teachers of the Year, respectively.

Both will be nominated by the district for the statewide Kansas Teacher of the Year award, which is administered by the Kansas Department of Education. Every winner is

Each school district in the state can nominate one elementary and secondary teacher for the honor.

Upon receiving their honors, one of the first sentiments out of Bonner’s and Crenshaw’s mouths was gratitude toward their colleagues.

“The caliber of my friends make it worth it,” Bonner said as they clapped around her in Deerfield’s library. “I love you.”

Crenshaw said: “I cant think of a better group of people to come to school with every day.”

Lawrence lands at No. 9 on ‘Coolest Town in the U.S.’ list

A website called the MatadorNetwork.com ranks Lawrence as the ninth “Coolest Town in the U.S.” As if you didn’t already know, Lawrence is cool — according to Matador — because many shops and bars sell records or used CDs, plus we have several venues that attract “legit musical acts.”

And Jim Flory, third district, appointed Gerald Wells, a private practice lawyer and a former Douglas County district attorney from the 1990s.

The terms of each building commission member will run concurrently with the county commissioner who appointed them.

The terms for Harris and Wells will conclude in 2016, while Edie’s will end in 2018.

The formation of a building commission, officials have said, has been pursued by the County Commission in an effort to keep fundraising options open with namely two upcoming projects in mind: renovations for the county’s fairgrounds and a two-part deal that would expand the county jail and build a separate mental health intervention center. The county passed a resolution to create the building commission one week ago.

project, which is expected to cost a total of $6.5 million. The jail expansion project has been given a rough cost estimate between $20 million and $30 million.

In January, the commission also took steps to preserve a sales tax referendum as a fundraising option. County governments cannot hold such elections without the state Legislature’s approval, so the commission voted to pursue the passage of a bill that would allow it to hold one County Administrator Craig Weinaug said a decision on how to finance the remainder of the fairgrounds renovations would come “sooner rather than later.” Officials hope that project can begin in late summer.

There is no timeline for the jail expansion. Officials are still gathering information on what that project must address.

Gaughan and Thellman have not stated what fundraising mechanism they prefer for either project.

But in late February, Flory said he is not inclined to favor using a building commission for the jail expansion, given that a high cost is expected.

Other local-sized governments, such as Johnson County, Franklin County and the city of Topeka, already have building commissions.

Homeland Security bill includes NBAF funding Topeka — A bill that Congress passed Tuesday funding the U.S. Department of Homeland Security through the end of the fiscal year includes the final funding needed to complete an animal disease research facility at Kansas State University in Manhattan, K-State officials said.

Ron Trewyn, NBAF liaison for the university, said the bill includes the final $300 million needed to complete the $1.15 billion National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility, or NBAF. That project, which is being jointly funded by the state and federal government, has been in the works since about 2007.

But it has been stalled because of cost overruns and budget stalemates in Congress.

Trewyn said initial site work where the research lab will be located has already been completed, and a power plant to serve the facility is about 90

percent complete. With the final funding now in place, he said, construction on the laboratory itself is expected to begin in late May or early June.

Kansas competed with several other states to house the facility, which is expected to create more than 300 new jobs in the area, with an economic benefit of $2.4 billion over 25 years.

In January, state officials made a conditional agreement to issue another $231 million in bonds to cover the state’s 25 percent share of the cost.

That brought the state’s total investment to $307 million.

That deal was conditioned on a final agreement being signed between the state and DHS, with assurances that the state would not be asked to contribute any more money, and that the facility would actually be built.

That was during a time when Congress was at odds with President Barack Obama over his immigration policy, and lawmakers withheld full

“I’ve talked to the dean.

They want to take their medical school in Wichita from 27 to 65 medical students per year. And I think that will just barely meet our need of the doctors who are going to retire in the next 10 or 15 years.”

But KU officials said they were dismayed by the move and predicted it would have a negative impact on both the main campus and the medical school.

“More than half our students come from Lawrence,” said Doug Girod, executive vice chancellor of the medical school.

“Anything that we do that damages that damages us, because we’re all one institution.”

The funding shifts proposed Wednesday represent changes to Gov. Sam Brownback’s budget recommendation for each of the next two fiscal years. In his original budget proposal, Brownback called for $138 million in general fund support for the KU Lawrence campus in fiscal year 2016 and $141 million in fiscal year 2017.

On Wednesday, the subcommittee voted to cut the governor’s recommendation for the Lawrence campus by $4.7 million in each of those two years.

Brownback softens stance on Medicaid expansion

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback suggested Wednesday that he might consider proposals to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, provided the Legislature can identify a way to pay for it.

“I’ve been pushing that anything we do on Medicaid expansion has to be 100-percent paid for,” Brownback said during impromptu remarks to the Kansas Association of Insurance Agents, who met at the Statehouse on Wednesday.

Under the federal

health law, also known as Obamacare, states are allowed to expand their Medicaid programs to cover all individuals in households with incomes up to 138 percent of the poverty level. That’s about $16,243 a year for an individual, or $27,724 for a family of three.

During the first three years, the federal government pays 100 percent of the cost of covering those who become newly eligible under the expansion. That tapers down to 90 percent of the cost by 2020.

For the traditional group covered by Medicaid, the federal govern-

ment pays only and criticized his about 56 percent Democratic oppoof the cost, while nent Paul Davis for the state picks up supporting it. the other 44 per“I haven’t said cent. we’ll take it.

pressure at the Statehouse from hospitals and other health care providers who want Kansas to take part in the expansion because it would mean additional reimbursements for them, offsetting losses they suffer from providing uncompensated care, as well as reduced reimbursements from Medicare, the federal health insurance program for the elderly.

They also came as the Kansas House, responding to some of that same pressure, is preparing to hold hearings on at least two Medicaid expansion bills, including one be-

ing pushed by Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, who chairs the House Vision 2020 Committee.

During his remarks, Brownback alluded to Sloan’s bill, which would levy a fee on health care providers who receive Medicaid reimbursements. Those fees would be used to cover the state’s 10 percent share of the cost.

But Brownback repeated a concern he has expressed many times about the federal government’s ability to pay its 90 percent share in years to come.

Diaper drive begins this weekend Beginning this weekend, local United Way and AmeriCorps members will hold a communitywide diaper drive.

Lori Johns, director of volunteer engagement for Lawrence’s United Way, said the organizations ran a similar drive last year, but this year’s effort has been expanded to include collecting adult diapers.

“They (diapers) are expensive and you go through a lot of them,” Johns said. “So what we’re trying to do is make sure people don’t have to choose between having their baby have a clean diaper versus having food on the table.”

The drive also coincides with National AmeriCorps Week, Johns said, which is meant to celebrate and recognize work done by AmeriCorps members across the country.

Collected diapers will be allocated to the Willow Domestic Violence Center, the Lawrence Community Shelter, Health Care Access and the LawrenceDouglas County Health Department.

Donations will be accepted Saturday at Hy-Vee, 4020 W. Sixth St., and March 12 and 13 at WalMart, 550 Congressional Drive, between 3 and 7 p.m.

Chamber opposes income tax proposals Topeka (ap) — The Kansas Chamber of Commerce opposes Republican Gov. Sam Brownback’s proposal to slow future income tax cuts to help balance the state budget.

Chamber President and CEO Mike O’Neal testified Wednesday against a bill containing the governor’s proposal during a House

Luu said her English has improved since arriving in Lawrence and that she and her fellow teachers from Vietnam had been able to learn about and observe in action, at area high schools, teaching techniques and technology in action.

She plans to take that back to Vietnam and already has plans to share her knowledge and online resources with colleagues at her school and, of course, the students.

“They are very smart,” she said. “They have a passion to learn English.”

Medicaid CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

“It would not be inconceivable whatsoever that when you’re going to tweak the budget on Medicaid to say, ‘No, we’re going to change it to what we do on all of Medicaid,’” Brownback said. “The extended price tag jumps dramatically.”

Brownback’s Press Secretary Eileen Hawley said the governor’s comments don’t represent a dramatic shift in his opinion about Medicaid expansion.

Taxation Committee hearing. The committee took no action.

Brownback and the Republican-dominated Legislature must close a projected budget shortfall of nearly $600 million for the fiscal year beginning July 1.

The state’s budget problems arose after lawmakers cut income taxes in 2012 and 2013 at Brownback’s urging to stimulate the economy.

O’Neal said lawmakers should look at cutting spending first. He is a former House speaker who backed the tax cuts.

Department of Revenue legislative liaison Richard Carlson said the state still would be moving to eliminate income taxes.

Going Out A guide to what’s happening in Lawrence

Chefs dish on their favorite dishes

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @hlavacekjoanna

W

here do chefs and restaurateurs like to eat when they’re not in the kitchen?

We posed that question to some of Lawrence’s best and brightest culinary minds, and the results might surprise you. Turns out, even the highest-profile chefs with the most refined food palates in town reach for their favorite comfort food at the end of a long day.

Rick Martin Executive chef and owner of Limestone Pizza, 814 Massachusetts St. Favorite dish: Spaghetti with meatballs at 715, 715 Massachusetts St. Rick Martin likens 715’s spaghetti and meatballs to a cartoonist’s rendering of the dish.

“It’s this perfect, rounded pile of these round noodles that are monochromatically red with the sauce, studded with these little meatballs,” he says of his “hands-down” favorite. “I think if you drew a cartoon picture of it, that’s what it would look like.”

In Martin’s mind, the homemade pasta is almost like a work of art. Growing up in his family, spaghetti dinners always meant something easily thrown together in a big pot of sauce.

But at 715, “there’s a lot of thought that goes into it,” starting with the hero of the dish — perfectly cooked, freshly made pasta.

“That’s what this dish is about: pasta. Everything else is an accessory,” Martin says.

“So the pasta should be perfect by itself.”

The restaurant offers two varieties of spaghetti — one with marinara, another with olive oil. For $5, customers can add three meatballs, as Martin does, or veggies for $4.

Ken Baker Former chef and proprietor of Pachamamas Favorite dish: Spicy drunken noodles at Little Saigon Café, 1524 W. 23rd St. The life of a chef is hectic, admits Ken Baker. But when-

Owned and operated by the Nguyen family, the tiny Vietnamese eatery boasts plenty of tasty fare (Baker likes the bánh mì, pho and bún) but the spicy drunken noodles ($10.95) remain his favorite.

“It’s something Steve [Nguyen] suggested for me one time when I was at the restaurant, and I was like, ‘I don’t know what to eat, man. You gotta hook me up,’” Baker recalls.

The dish consists of wide rice noodles and “rich gravy,” plus chiles, Thai basil, scallions and chicken — though Baker usually orders his with pork.

It’s a filling meal that “gets you through the day,” Baker says, especially in frigid winter temperatures.

“You look at this giant plate of noodles, and you’re

like, ‘There’s no way I’m ever going to crush this,’” Baker says. “And seven or eight minutes later, you’re like, ‘I wish I had more.’”

Vaughn Good Owner of Hank Charcuterie, 1900 Massachusetts St. Favorite dish: Fried-chicken po’boy at Terrebonne Café, 805 Vermont St. Vaughn Good first fell in love with Terrebonne Café’s fried-chicken po’boy one day this summer. He’s returned to the sandwich just about every Monday since, when Terrebonne offers it as a $6.50 special.

Good’s beloved po’boy comprises a Cajun-seasoned fried chicken breast with creole remoulade, lettuce, onions and tomatoes on toasted French bread.

Customers can munch on Terrebonne’s other po’boys — a Louisiana version of the

submarine sandwich, for the unfamiliar — week-round, with a choice of shrimp, grilled chicken, catfish, crawfish, andouille sausage, gator, oyster or portobello.

As for Good, he’s not sure what makes the fried-chicken po’boy his favorite meal in town, other than the obvious: “It’s always awesome to eat fried chicken on a sandwich,” Good says.

Matt Hyde Partner and manager of 715, 715 Massachusetts St. Favorite dish: A plain croissant at WheatFields Bakery and Café, 904 Vermont St. It may be his “ultimate favorite in this town,” but you won’t see Matt Hyde enjoying a WheatFields croissant ($2.99) every day of the week.

“There’s always a couple months in between, and then

all of a sudden I remember, ‘That’s what I want!’” Hyde says of the WheatFields pastry, which he first sampled during a brief stint at the bakery in 1996. “You can imagine how many hundreds of dollars I’ve spent on those over the years.”

Part of its appeal lies in that “nostalgia factor,” says Hyde, who says he’s sampled countless croissants over the years, including those in Italy. None could compare to “the flavor, the texture and the crumbs” of WheatFields’ croissant.

That, and walking down Vermont Street with the smell of freshly baked bread wafting under your nose.

“To me, it’s one of the most perfect foods in this whole city,” he says. “It’s just a special thing.”

EDITORIALS

Academic rights The importance and the limits of academic freedom are a topic of lively debate in Kansas these days.

A

cademic freedom is a bedrock principle for university faculty members, and yet, there seems to be some controversy in Kansas about exactly what is covered by that term.

Faculty members at state universities across Kansas are decrying a new Kansas Board of Regents social media policy that they say infringes on their academic freedom and right to free speech.

At the same time, however, a Kansas University faculty member is using academic freedom to argue for less disclosure as he fights to shield his KU email communications from a Kansas Open Records request.

The new social media policy landed the Board of Regents on the list of the top 10 threats to free speech on campus, released this week by the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education. KU faculty members say the policy is so broad that it’s hard to define how it might be used against them. Among other things, the policy restricts speech that “impairs … harmony among co-workers.” The policy is so vague and open to interpretation that faculty are understandably concerned that it could be capriciously enforced. It has a chilling effect on faculty members’ ability to do their jobs and engage in the kind of free inquiry that is required in an academic community.

One of the most important aspects of academic freedom is the protection it provides to faculty members when they discuss radical ideas or theories. The point of expressing those viewpoints, however, is to promote examination and, yes, criticism by those who might disagree. That free marketplace of ideas is key to academic freedom.

A KU student group investigating Koch Industry ties to the KU School of Business wants to look at emails sent by Art Hall, executive director of the Center for Applied Economics. As part of his efforts to fight the release of his emails, Hall argues the release would violate his academic freedom. Researchers, Hall said in a JournalWorld column, should be allowed “to correspond broadly with experts with diverse viewpoints without fearing their thoughts will be misconstrued, published and used against them in order to silence them.”

Academic freedom protects the right of faculty members to espouse unpopular opinions without fearing for their jobs, but it doesn’t shield them from criticism or even ridicule. Having their ideas discussed or even misconstrued is part of the process that helps researchers refine their thinking and further their work. When those ideas are expressed on a public university email account, what right does the public have to examine them?

In Hall’s case, that’s a matter that the courts will decide. On the social media issue, state universities in Kansas are working on policies that provide some due process for faculty members suspected of violating the regents’ policy. Academic freedom protects faculty members in a way that is essential, but not absolute.

Drawing that line and protecting their academic integrity is — and should be — a matter of no small concern to Kansas universities hoping to retain and attract top faculty members.

Letters to the Public Forum should be 250 words or less. The JournalWorld reserves the right to edit letters, as long as viewpoints are not altered.

IRS corruption eludes prosecution Washington — Rep. Peter Roskam is now chairman of the Ways and Means subcommittee whose jurisdiction includes oversight of the Internal Revenue Service, and hence of Lois Lerner’s legacy.

He knows how interesting her career was before she, as head of the IRS exempt-organizations division, directed the suppression of conservative advocacy groups by delaying and denying them the tax exempt status that was swiftly given to comparable liberal groups.

In 2013, Roskam, in a televised committee hearing, told the story of Al Salvi, who in 1996 was the Republican Senate candidate against then congressman, now senator, Dick Durbin. Democrats filed charges with the Federal Election Commission against Salvi’s campaign, charges that threatened to dominate the campaign’s final weeks. Salvi telephoned the head of the FEC’s Enforcement Division, who he says told him: “Promise me you will never run for office again, and we’ll drop this case.” So said Lois Lerner. After Salvi lost, FBI agents visited his elderly mother, demanding to know, concerning her $2,000 contribution to her son’s campaign, where she got “that kind of money.”

When a federal court held that the charges against Salvi were spurious, the FEC’s losing lawyer was Lois Lerner.

Roskam’s telling of Salvi’s story elicited no denial from Lerner. Neither did the retelling of it in this column (June 13, 2013). No wonder: The story had not been deemed

“

One place to begin is with the evidence — anecdotal but, in the context of proven IRS corruption, convincing — of other possibly punitive IRS behavior toward Republican contributors and other conservative activists.” newsworthy by the three broadcast networks’ evening news programs, by The New York Times or The Washington Post. With most of the media uninterested in the use of government institutions to handicap conservatives, stonewalling would work.

It still is working through dilatory and incomplete responses to subpoenas, and unresponsive answers to congressional questions. Lerner’s name now has an indelible Nixonian stain, but there probably will be no prosecution. If the administration’s stonewalling continues as the statute of limitations’ clock ticks, Roskam says, “She will get away with it.”

Now in his fifth House term, Roskam, 53, says, “The advantage in this town is always with the entity that doesn’t want to do anything.” Many thousands of Lerner’s emails that supposedly were irretrievably lost have been found, but not released. The Justice Department’s investigation, which was entrusted to a political appointee who was a generous contributor to Barack Obama’s campaign, is a stone in the stone wall.

Roskam says the task now is “to see that Lois Lerner 2.0 is impossible.” One place to begin is with the evidence — anecdotal but, in the context of proven IRS corruption, convincing — of other possibly punitive IRS behavior toward Republican contributors and other conservative activists. This justifies examining the IRS’ audit selection process. This would produce interesting hearings for most of the media to ignore.

Next, there should be hearings into the illegal disclosure of taxpayer information about conservative individuals and groups to the media and to liberal officials and groups.

Cleta Mitchell, a lawyer for some groups abused by the IRS (and for this columnist on different matters), also suggests prohibiting IRS employees from joining a union.

“The National Treasury Employees Union,” she says, “provides no protection to IRS employees that federal statutes and the civil service system do not already provide. It already takes an act of God to hold an IRS em-

ployee accountable for his or her actions. But it is worse than merely redundant for IRS employees to belong to the NTEU. Because it adds nothing to its members’ protections, it is a purely political organization. In 2014, fully 95 percent of its contributions went to Democrats, including 11 Democratic members of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. So, the IRS employees’ union dues finance the election of people who are supposed to scrutinize IRS’ behavior.”

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments about whether the IRS’ lawlessness has extended to its role in implementing the Affordable Care Act. The act says that federal subsidies shall be distributed by the IRS to persons who buy insurance through exchanges “established by the state.”

The act’s logic and legislative history, as well as a forceful statement by one of its architects, professor Jonathan Gruber of MIT, demonstrate that this clear language was written to “squeeze” — Gruber’s word — the states into establishing exchanges. But when 34 states did not establish them, the IRS began disbursing billions of dollars through federal exchanges.

The court probably will rule that the IRS acted contrary to law. If so, the IRS certainly will not have acted contrary to its pattern of corruption in the service of the current administration.

Resilient truth must rise again First, they sang “God Will Take Care of You.” Then they walked out of Brown Chapel to a playground where they organized themselves into 24 groups of 25 each and set out marching. Their route out of Selma took them onto Highway 80, which is carried over the Alabama River by a bridge named in honor of Confederate general and Alabama Ku Klux Klan leader Edmund W. Pettus.

It was about 2:30 on the afternoon of Sunday, March 7, 1965.

At the foot of the bridge, the marchers were met by Alabama state troopers.

Some were on horseback.

Major John Cloud spoke to the marchers through a bullhorn. “It would be detrimental to your safety to continue this march,” he said. “And I’m saying that this is an unlawful assembly. You are to disperse. You are ordered to disperse. Go home or go to your church. This march will not continue. Is that clear to you?”

He gave them two minutes to comply. Just over one minute later, he ordered troopers to advance.

They moved toward the marchers, truncheons held waist high, parallel to

And states, responding to a nonexistent surge of election fraud, have rushed to impose onerous new photo ID laws for voters.”

the ground. But something seemed to overtake them as they pushed into the demonstrators. The troopers began to stampede, sweeping over unarmed women, children and men as a wave does a shore.

Teargas filled the air. Lawmen on horseback swept down on fleeing marchers, wielding batons, cattle prods, rubber hoses studded with spikes. Skin was split. Bones were broken. The marchers were beaten all the way back into town. A teenager was hurled through a church window. On the bridge, the cheers and rebel yells of on-

lookers mingled with the shrieks of the sufferers and became indistinguishable.

Thus was the pavement of the freest country on Earth stained with the blood of citizens seeking their right to vote.

By rights, this 50th anniversary of those events should be an unalloyed celebration. After all, the marchers, fortified by men and women of good will from all over the country, eventually crossed that bridge under federal protection, marched for four days up Highway 80 and made it to, as the song says, glory. They stood at the state capitol in Montgomery and heard Martin Luther King exhort them to hold on and be strong.

“Truth crushed to earth,” he thundered, “will rise again!”

The Voting Rights Act was signed into law. And African Americans, who had been excluded from the ballot box for generations, went on to help elevate scores of citizens who looked like them to the mayor’s office, the governor’s mansion, the White House.

So yes, this should be a time of celebration. But the celebration is shadowed by a sobering reality.

In 2013, the Voting Rights Act was castrated by the Supreme Court under the du-

bious reasoning that its success proved it was no longer needed. And states, responding to a nonexistent surge of election fraud, have rushed to impose onerous new photo ID laws for voters. When it is observed that the laws will have their heaviest impact on young people, poor people and African Americans — those least likely to have photo ID — defenders of the laws point to that imaginary surge of fraud and assure us voter suppression is the furthest thing from their minds.

How can it be about race, they cluck piously, when the laws apply to everyone?

Of course, so did grandfather clauses, poll taxes, literacy tests and other means by which African-American voting rights were systematically stolen for decades and a Whites Only sign slapped onto the ballot box. It is disheartening that we find ourselves forced to fight again a battle already won. But the events of half a century past whisper to us a demand for our toughness and faith in the face of that hard truth. They remind us that, yes, injustice is resilient.

But truth crushed to earth is, too.

In the presentation, she described the job as being “servantlike” and “at the bottom of the totem pole.”

The documents show that Gardner gave the presentation in one of four lectures between 2000 and 2003, but it is not clear whether she gave the same presentation at each lecture.

Meanwhile, the director of a Kansas University legal clinic and a former Kansas Bar Association president said they unsuccessfully sought a seat on the state Court of Appeals.

Law professor Suzanne Valdez and Neodesha attorney Dennis Depew confirmed Wednesday that they applied for the state’s second highest court.

Valdez would not comment after confirming her application. She directs the law school’s criminal prosecution clinic.

Washington — The Senate on Wednesday failed to override President Barack Obama’s veto of a bill to construct the Keystone XL pipeline, the first of many confrontations between the Republican-controlled Congress and the White House this year over energy policy.

The 62-37 vote is expected to be one of many veto showdowns between Republicans and Obama in his final term. Already, the White House has issued more than a dozen veto threats on legislation.

Proponents of the Keystone bill have said since its introduction that they

They fell four votes short.

But they’ve already been discussing other ways to force the pipeline’s approval, either by attaching it onto must-pass spending bills or other, broader, energy legislation.

Topeka — Republican Gov. Sam Brownback’s appointee to the Kansas Court of Appeals got a chilly reception Wednesday at her first confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Chairman Sen. Jeff King, a Republican from Independence, spent a large portion of the hearing questioning Kathryn Gardner’s qualifications.

Gardner has served as the law clerk for U.S. District Judge Sam Crow since 2000 after spending 12 years as a practicing lawyer in Wichita and two years as an assistant state attorney general. King King twice referred to comments made in 2005 by thenU.S. Sen. Brownback on Harriet Miers, whose appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court by President George W. Bush was

eventually withdrawn.

Brownback told NPR that Miers, who had served as counsel to the president, had few published works and opinions from which lawmakers could discern her legal philosophy.

King said Gardner’s background has similar holes.

“Just like with Harriet Miers, we are lacking that paper trail of your own thought, your own opinion, your own personal writing reflecting that. So, using the words of Gov. Brownback at that time, why shouldn’t we consider rejecting your nomination for the same reason ...” King asked Gardner. She responded that her record showed that she could separate personal ideology from her duties as judge.

She said her experience as a law clerk was directly applicable to the job of an appellate judge, although she expressed a different opinion in a presentation made to conservative law

KU’s Ellis to miss Oklahoma game

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Lions show steadiness on court and off Coming off the bench for a team that has two of the best high school basketball players in the state can have its intimidating facets, if a team’s culture isn’t quite right.

It certainly didn’t look that way for key Lawrence High reserves Wednesday night in a 79-45 victory vs.

Shawnee Mission Northwest in a sub-state opener at The Jungle.

They looked as if they felt counted-on, appreciated. Above all, they looked comfortable.

Junior guard Anthony Harvey was needed when standout junior point guard Justin Roberts picked up his second foul in the second quarter on a charge. Harvey responded with a big night, contributing eight points and two rebounds.

Senior Logan Applegate does his work closer to the basket and he did it well in the sub-state opener, pitching in with six points, four rebounds, an assist and a steal. Two of his points came when Price Morgan set him up with a beauty of a bounce pass from the high post. Junior Fred Brou also looked as if he belonged with three points and a steal and Kyle Hoffman hit a three, playing the role late in the game that starter Ben Rajewski plays so well.

Roberts and Bonner, remarkably skilled and explosive in different ways, do more than lead the team in scoring. They lead the team in establishing a winning demeanor as well.

“Playing against them every day at practice, it gets you better, definitely,” Harvey said.

Playing with them has the same impact in multiple ways.

“They’re two humble guys and they both have real bright futures,” Harvey said. “It’s a pleasure playing with them. It’s fun. It’s a lot of fun. They come from two great families and they know how to be humble. I feel like that speaks for our team, too.”

Meaning?

“We don’t run around flaunting our record: ‘We’re 20-1. We’re No. 2 in the state.’ No,” Harvey said.

“Just play the game. I think we do a good job of not being cocky. We’re repping our school. We’re repping our families. We let our game speak.”

Everything about the Lions illustrates strong team chemistry.

“What’s best about Anthony Harvey is he understands his role and if that’s 30 seconds or 30 minutes, he’s playing ball and he’s got a great attitude,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said. “He brings a lot of fresh air to the gym every day. He’s one of those guys.”

Basketball players love to play, but if you have to watch, you might as well soak it all in and let that get your juices flowing.

Kansas University’s Perry Ellis and Oklahoma’s Buddy Hield, who are arguably the top two contenders for 2015 Big 12 Player of the Year, will not guard each other in any epic one-on-one confrontation Saturday at Noble Center in Norman, Oklahoma.

Ellis, who is a former AAU teammate of Hield, will, in fact, miss the 3 p.m., contest because of a sprained right knee.

“He’s not going to play

this Saturday,” KU coach Bill Self told the JournalWorld on Wednesday, a day after Ellis Ellis sprained his right knee in the first half of KU’s 76-69 overtime victory over West Virginia in Allen Fieldhouse.

“He’s going to be sore here for a few days. Hopefully he’ll be able to respond to treatment and be back

out there next week. That’s what we’re hopeful for,” Self added of Ellis returning for the Big 12 tournament, which for KU starts a week from today in Kansas City’s Sprint Center.

“The doctors said, that’s too quick,” Self added of Ellis playing on Saturday. “Of course, with the tournament coming up, our best chance to have him healthy is to let him get some rest and just rehab.”

Self did stress that Ellis has suffered no structural damage in his knee.

As far as the conference

Player of the Year battle ... the 6-foot-8 Ellis averages 14.2 points off 47.1 percent shooting, and 7.0 rebounds a game in 30 games. The 6-4 Hield averages 17.3 points off 43.1 percent shooting with 5.4 boards in 29 games.

In league games only, Hield averages 18.5 points off 44.9 percent shooting and 5.7 rebounds to Ellis’ 15.1 points off 50 percent shooting and 7.2 boards.

“I was definitely concerned. He’s our best player.

Lawrence High senior guard John Barbee didn’t get a chance to play against Shawnee Mission Northwest in the regular season.

He made up for lost time on Wednesday.

With senior guard Anthony Bonner and junior point guard Justin Roberts attracting extra defensive attention, Barbee made the Cougars pay by slashing in for layups and grabbing offensive re-

bounds in a 79-45 rout at LHS in the first round of sub-state.

The eighth-seeded Cougars (3-18) made their first five shots, and the Lions answered with points on their first eight possessions. LHS never slowed down, shooting 65 percent (31-for-48) throughout the night.

“That first quarter we were scoring like no other,” Roberts said. “That’s what got us going, then our defense was great, too.”

The 6-foot-2 Barbee led the second-ranked team in

the state to a 26-16 lead after the first quarter, scoring seven of his team’s first 11 points.

He shared the ball with junior forward Price Morgan, who knocked down a few mid-range jumpers. Bonner added two triples, senior Logan Applegate had a layup and Roberts made a three.

“I didn’t like not playing.

I’m glad I came out and was able to contribute how I do,” said Barbee, who finished with 15 points and a teamhigh six rebounds. “We just moved the ball really well

and got each other open shots. Everyone was just hitting on every cylinder.”

In the second quarter, the Lions (20-1) turned up the defensive pressure and went on a 16-2 run over five minutes. Senior guard Ben Rajewski started the stretch with a three-pointer from the wing and junior guard Anthony Harvey finished it with a bucket-and-the-foul score.

“We just didn’t have a lot of intensity, not much of a sense of urgency,” Hack said after his nine-point prep finale, “and that just carried over.”

Nerves, FSHS Chuck Law guessed, might have contributed to those early struggles.

“But, you know,” he said, Please see FIREBIRDS, page 3B

FSHS, LHS girls set sub-state sights high

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Free State High’s girls basketball team set a school record by winning 16 regular-season games, but starting today, none of those matter to the Firebirds.

The No. 2-seeded Firebirds (16-4) will host No. 7-seeded KC Wyandotte (1-14) at 7 tonight at FSHS in the first round of its sub-state tournament.

“One of the top team goals on the season from start to finish has been to make the state tournament, so certainly that goal is still out there and still attainable,” Free State coach Bryan Duncan said.

“They are extremely hungry to get that.”

The Firebirds’ hunger

few seconds of the first half as the Lions stormed to a 44-23 advantage.

“I really think it starts on our defensive end and tonight, I thought we were pretty good on defense,” LHS coach Mike Lewis said. “We deflected the ball. We rebounded the ball. I thought our team defense was good. When we get out and start making transition baskets, I like our chances.”

After the Cougars scored on four of their first five possessions of the second half, the Lions closed the third quarter on a 20-0 run. The Lions forced six turnovers in the spurt, leading to layups by Barbee, Roberts and junior forward Fred Brou.

Roberts, who sat for the last five minutes of the first half because of foul trouble, scored 11 of

shaking his head after his team scored its fewest points of the season, “the game had such an odd flow to it. As poor as we were offensively, it’s still 6-2 at the quarter.”

Free State’s coaches reminded their players the only thing that mattered entering the second was that they trailed by four points. But more of the same followed in the next eight minutes.

Junior Hunter Gudde scored five of his seven points in the second, but the Firebirds made just three of nine field goals.

They had seven turnovers in the first half and trailed 19-10 entering the third.

Nine points didn’t seem too unreasonable of a deficit to overcome, so the Firebirds, unable to play man-to-man against the athletic Indians (147), kept playing zone to open the second half and mixed in traps to disrupt SMN. And it worked.

The Indians turned the ball over five times in

has also been fueled by their late-season success.

FSHS has ripped off four straight wins to close out the regular season, defeating Shawnee Mission South, Olathe East, Shawnee Mission West and Lawrence High.

“I feel like everything we’ve worked for is starting to pay off,” senior Adriana Jadlow said.

“We’re really confident going into sub-state right now.”

Despite their fourgame winning streak, the Firebirds are still not taking the one-win Bulldogs lightly.

“Every game you’ve got to be prepared for,” Duncan said. “We’ll be as prepared for them as anybody else. Obviously our goal is to win a two-game

his team-high 16 points in the third quarter, and he also dished three of his game-high five assists in the period. With the Lions grabbing steals, Roberts slashed past defenders in transition and scored layups or dropped off passes to awaiting teammates for easy buckets.

“The balls went our way,” Roberts said. “We got some open layups.

That’s always good for us because we like to play fast. That’s to our advantage.”

The Lions were rewarded with a running clock for the fourth quarter, after forcing 21 turnovers on defense and sharing the ball on offense. Six LHS players finished with at least eight points.

“I might be most proud of our first quarter,” Lewis said. “They came down and hit (five) straight shots and we came back and responded. A lot of teams might dig them-

the first 4:17 of the third quarter. However, Free State missed its first five field-goal attempts and turned the ball over five times before Hack hit a three-pointer off a pass from sophomore Sloan Thomsen with 1:16 left in the quarter.

“That was our real opportunity,” Law said of the defense in the third, which coincided with FSHS making just two shots (both Hack threepointers).

Added Hack: “We got the stops. We just couldn’t convert offensively. I think their length really bothered us.”

Unlike the Feb. 10 regular-season meeting between the two teams — at FSHS, where the Firebirds won 69-57 — SMN defended at a high level.

Junior Marcus Weathers not only blocked four shots, he truly protected the rim when FSHS got the ball inside. The leaping 6-3 defender, Hack said, might have had the Firebirds second-guessing attacks.

“Ideally it wouldn’t, but when you get in there, you’re thinking in the back of your mind, ‘Where’s he at? Do I have

The winner of tonight’s matchup will go on to play the winner of No. 6-seeded Shawnee Mission North vs. No. 3-seeded Shawnee Mission West. If the Firebirds defeat Wyandotte, they will host the second-round matchup at 7 p.m. Saturday at FSHS for a chance

selves a seven- or eightpoint hole, and then be facing that eight seed and start to tighten up. I really liked the way our guys responded. It was just a sign of how tough they are.”

The Lions will welcome Shawnee Mission East into the Jungle at 7 p.m. Friday in the substate finals. The winner will earn a trip to the Class 6A state tournament next week in Wichita.

“He had a huge impact on the game defensively.”

Free State cut the SMN lead to seven early in the fourth, after sophomore Shannon Cordes scored on a drive and banked in a three. But Marcus and Michael Weathers (18 points apiece) scored 17 of their team’s final 21 points to send the Indians to a sub-state title game against Shawnee Mission West on Friday.

KU baseball prevails, 9-5 J-W Staff Reports

Phoenix — Michael Tinsley and Blair Beck homered, and Kansas University’s baseball team defeated Grand Canyon, 9-5, on Wednesday.

Tinsley hit a two-run home run in the first inning, and Beck hit a solo shot in the third. Dakota Smith belted a bases-loaded double in the fourth to give KU a 9-1 lead.

“It was a huge day

for us,” KU coach Ritch Price said. “After our performance yesterday, we needed to find a way to win, whether it was a low-scoring game or a high-scoring game. To quote coach (Bill) Self, we found a way to win an ugly one.”

Sam Gilbert (1-1) pitched two innings of scoreless relief to record the victory. Stephen Villines worked the final three innings for his third save.

“We turned four double plays, which were the difference in the ballgame,” Price said. “It got us out of trouble without them scoring and held them at bay after we had the 9-1 lead.”

Kansas 231 300 000 — 9 12 4 Grand Canyon 010 300 001 — 5 9 2 W — Sam Gilbert (1-1). L — Josh Walker (0-1). S — Stephen Villines (3).

to qualify for the Kansas 6A state tournament March 11-14 in Wichita.

FSHS is looking to reach the state tournament for the first time since 2010.

While the Firebirds have home-court advantage throughout their sub-state tournament, Lawrence High (6-14) will have to hit the road

for its opening game.

The No. 5-seeded Lions will square off against No. 4-seeded Shawnee Mission South (7-13) at 7 tonight in Overland Park.

LHS lost to SM South, 57-44, in its previous matchup on Feb. 6 against the Raiders. The Lions rallied in the second half, but could not overcome a 13-0 run by the Raiders to open the game.

“They jumped all over us early in that game,” LHS coach Jeff Dickson said. “We battled back in the second half and got it within single digits. That was kind of a wake-up call for us the second half of the season.”

The Lions gained confidence from the setback to the Raiders, realizing

that they were on the cusp of having what it takes to win on the road in the Sunflower League.

LHS has not lost on the road since, winning three straight against Shawnee Mission North, Olathe North and Shawnee Mission East prior to falling Friday to Free State.

“We have a lot to prove and a lot to overcome,” junior Alexis Boyd said.

“We’re not done.”

Should the Lions avenge their regular-season loss to the Raiders, they will move on to face the winner of No. 8-seeded Shawnee Mission East vs. No. 1-seeded Shawnee Mission Northwest at 7 p.m. Saturday at the location of the highest remaining seed.

LHS graduate Siebenthall named Ottawa U. coach J-W Staff Reports

After nine years as an Ottawa University assistant basketball coach, Lawrence native Aaron Siebenthall has been promoted to head coach.

Siebenthall, a 1994 Lawrence High graduate, replaces longtime OU coach Andy Carrier, who announced his retirement earlier this week after a 25-year career that included an Ottawa record 328 victories.

Siebenthall, 38, takes over head coaching duties immediately.

“My role as associate head coach has required me to always be thinking about the future of the program while still focusing on the current team,” said Siebenthall in a news release prior to his official introduction

as the Braves’ n e w coach on Wednesday.

“I am incredibly honored Siebenthall to have worked with and been mentored by coach Carrier these past nine years and it is humbling to be invited to now lead the program as Andy’s successor.”

Longtime assistant coach Siebenthall also served as the program’s recruiting coordinator for the past nine years. He helped guide the Braves to two NAIA Division II national tournaments, one KCAC title, and one KCAC tournament championship.

“I am thrilled Aaron Siebenthall will have

the opportunity to take charge of our OU men’s basketball program moving forward,” Carrier said in the release. “He has been a great assistant coach and there are no doubts in my mind he is ready to take the reins and continue to build on the success we’ve enjoyed.

He is experienced, smart and hardworking.

He truly cares and loves the university, the program and our current and former players.”

Siebenthall and his wife Shayla were married in September of 2013. They have a 4-month-old daughter, Berkley.

Siebenthall graduated from Kansas University in 2002 and received a Master’s degree from Ottawa in 2010.

KU’s Gardner tapped all-Big 12 J-W Staff Reports

Kansas University senior Chelsea Gardner has been selected to the allBig 12 women’s basketball first team.

going to need him,” KU forward Jamari Traylor said of his thoughts when Ellis left Tuesday’s game late in the first half. “I just knew guys would have to step up if he was out. I wanted to be a little more vocal. I wanted to tell guys, ‘We’re still in it,’ and everything,” added Traylor, who finished with 14 points and nine rebounds.

He had six of KU’s 17 points in overtime.

“Jamari was the best player in the game for us,” Self said. “He looked like the old Jamari. He’s been laboring a month or so. He had energy, made great athletic plays. We got eight offensive rebounds. He had six of them. I thought Hunter (Mickelson, eight points, three steals, two blocks) played great. Landen (Lucas, six rebounds, two blocks) played great.

They all stepped up and played big considering two starters were out — Perry being hurt and Cliff (Alexander) didn’t play.”

as well as 8.5 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game.

A l dridge averaged Gardner e i g h t points.

She played every minute of KU’s last four games.

Boyd averaged 10.3 points and 4.3 rebounds per game before suffering

a foot injury, and Knight averaged 12.5 points.

Gardner also was named the Big 12 player of the week for the second time this season. Gardner totaled 25 points, 12 rebounds and five blocked shots in KU’s victory over Iowa State.

The Jayhawks (15-16 overall, 6-12 Big 12) will meet Kansas State (17-12, 7-11) in the Big 12 tournament at 6 p.m. Friday in Dallas.

Meanwhile, Wayne Selden Jr., who sprained an ankle in the second half, should definitely be available for the Oklahoma game. Selden returned to the locker room to get his ankle re-taped after going down vs. West Virginia. l No news on Cliff: The Chicago Sun-Times’ Michael O’Brien tweeted on Wednesday, “Hearing it is possible Cliff Alexander may be cleared to play for Kansas this weekend.

Manning plans return to Broncos in 2015 Englewood, Colo. (ap) — Hold that gold watch.

Peyton Manning is taking one more shot at the silver trophy.

Weeks of speculation about the five-time MVP’s future ended Wednesday with word that he’s returning for an 18th season in the NFL and fourth in Denver.

A person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press that Manning will take a $4 million pay cut, from $19 million to $15 million, but that he can make it all back through performance incentives. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because there was no official announcement of the deal.

Manning, who is still scheduled to make $19 million in 2016 in the final season of the fiveyear contract he signed in 2012, will take his physical and sign his revised contract today.

Manning mulled retirement after the Broncos’ playoff loss to the Indianapolis Colts. But he determined he still had the health and hunger to keep playing at age 39, when he tries to become the oldest QB to win a Super Bowl.

Manning, who won a title with the Colts in 2006,

met with general manager John Elway a few weeks ago after taking some time to decompress from an arduous season and told him he wasn’t ready to retire.

Reminiscent of Brett Favre’s annual flirtations with retirement, however, this saga dragged on as the Broncos and Manning’s agent Tom Condon reworked the quarterback’s contract.

The $4 million savings won’t drastically change Denver’s free agency plans. It gives Elway about $20 million to work with, but much of that will go to his own restricted free agents and a large draft class.

After dealing with a nagging thigh injury that hampered his performance down the stretch, Manning worked out this offseason in New Orleans with physical trainer Mackie Shilstone, renowned for helping athletes extend the twilight of their careers.

On Feb. 12, Manning flew to Denver in team owner Pat Bowlen’s jet to meet with Elway, CEO Joe Ellis and new coach Gary Kubiak. He also huddled with offensive coordinator Rick Dennison, who replaced Adam Gase, Manning’s co-pilot

Royals pack punch in opener Surprise, Ariz. (ap) — Eric Hosmer and Royals newcomers Kendrys Morales and Alex Rios hit consecutive first-inning homers, and AL champion Kansas City routed the Texas Rangers, 13-2, on Wednesday in the spring training opener for both teams.

Hosmer hit a three-run shot off Rangers starter Colby Lewis that landed on the grassy berm well beyond the centerfield fence. Morales went deep to right field and Rios went to left, giving Kansas City a 6-0 lead before Lewis had even recorded an out.

The last time Kansas City hit three consecutive homers during the regular season was May 2006, when Tony Graffanino, Angel Berroa and Doug Mientkiewicz did it against Detroit.

“It’s something you don’t get to see every day, even during the regular season,” said Rios, who

12-105.1 FEES.

RECOUPMENT

In addition to court costs under 12-105 of this Code, whenever any defendant is convicted of a violation of any provisions of this Code, the Judge of the Municipal Court may order the defendant to pay recoupment fees. Such recoupment fees include, but are not limited to, costs the City incurs for each day or portion of a day that the convicted person serves in jail at the rate the City is charged for the jail time by Douglas County, and the reasonable cost of public defender fees in each case for which the Judge of the Municipal Court appoints counsel, including those cases in which the defendant obtains diversion. In determining the amount and method of payment of such sum, the court shall take into account the financial resources of the defendant and the nature of the burden that payment of such sum will impose upon the defendant and the defendant’s immediate family. This determination of reasonable recoupment fees requires the Judge of the Municipal Court to consider factors, including but not limited to, the defendant’s family size and income. A defendant who has been required to pay such sum and who is not willfully in default in the payment thereof may at any time petition the Municipal Court to waive payment of such sum or of any unpaid portion thereof. Upon such petition, if it appears to the satisfaction of the Judge of the Municipal Court that payment of the amount due will impose manifest hardship on the defendant or the defendant’s immediate family, the court may waive payment of all or part of the amount due or modify the amount or method of payment.

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Husband’s behavior sounds like verbal abuse Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married for 10 years, but I sometimes wonder whether I love him or am just used to having him around. We have no kids, and I’ve started thinking of how my life would be without him.

This all began when he first displayed an awful temper. He never gets physically violent, but he hurts me tremendously with the things he says. He pays some of my bills, but always puts his wants and needs before household things that are more important, like fixing the car or filling my prescriptions. I have to walk on eggshells most of the time. When it’s a holiday or Valentine’s Day, he expects me to get him something, but he never does anything special for me.

My friends think I’m

still with him because I’m afraid to be alone.

There are times when I enjoy his company but not that often. I’m not even sexually attracted to him anymore. Should I continue on because it just might be a phase I’m going through? — Tired of It Dear Tired: While all relationships go through ups and downs, yours includes verbal abuse and what appears to be a total lack of consideration. This is not accept-

ABC’s new crime drama smart, deep As its title implies, “American Crime” (8 p.m., ABC) explores the aftermath of a horrific incident. Timothy Hutton, looking decidedly unkempt, stars as Russ Skokie, a distraught father called to identify the body of his son, a proud military veteran. After learning of his son’s murder, he is told that his daughter-in-law barely clings to life, the victim of a savage assault and sexual violation.

“Crime” explores this incident, investigation and criminal proceedings from the point of view of all concerned: the parents of the victims and the overlapping worlds of the four suspects. It presents, in harrowing detail, the motivations of those drawn into the center and periphery of this crime, and how our first impressions of the victims and the defendants are colored by race, ethnicity and social standing.

Felicity Huffman breathes life and fire into her role as Barb Hanlon, Russ’ estranged and embittered ex-wife, the mother of the murder victim. Exacting, judgmental and assertive, she begins calling for the death penalty before a suspect is even identified. She’s determined to turn the case into a crusade and is brutally open in her contempt and loathing for her former husband.

“Crime” bounces back and forth between Barb’s righteous wrath and the squalid drug demimonde from which the defendants emerge. The drama does a convincing job of showing how everyone, even the most seemingly sordid, has a story of his or her own.

“Crime,” created by Oscarwinner John Ridley (“12 Years a Slave”), offers a fascinating antidote to the media’s usual tabloid take on good and evil, crime and punishment. It may not be to every viewer’s liking, but it represents yet another effort by network television to rise to the level of the smart competition on streaming and cable TV, and may appeal to fans of “The Wire.”

Tonight’s other highlights

Manolis tells Aisha to put family first on “The Slap” (7 p.m., NBC).

Help from an unlikely source on “Backstrom” (8 p.m., Fox).

Ecbert visits the pacified farms on “Vikings” (9 p.m., History).

able behavior between loving spouses. If your husband is willing to go with you for counseling and work on this, there is hope for the relationship. If not, please talk to a counselor on your own and try to clarify your feelings enough to make decisions about your future.

Dear Annie: I have a friend who dominates every conversation.

Upon sitting down to eat, she immediately starts talking about whatever is on her mind and never pauses to let anyone else get a word in. She never asks how anyone else is doing. If not interrupted, she can go on for hours.

Ironically, she complains about how her sister talks on and on about herself. She can see these traits in her siblings but doesn’t realize she is just as bad.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, March 5: This year you are open to many fast changes. Others sometimes express frustration at your tendency to go back and forth with some issues. If you are single, you are likely to meet someone important to your life sometime after mid-August. If you are attached, you often might be on the other side of an issue from your significant other.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You might need to pay extra attention to a boss or loved one who dominates your daily life.

Tonight: Stay in the neighborhood.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You know how to deal with a loved one who seems intent on stirring up some controversy.

Tonight: Express your caring.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Stay close to home. There could be an unusual amount of activity bubbling up around you.

Tonight: Invite a friend over for munchies.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Pressure builds around communication as you attempt to deal with a changeable situation.

Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You could feel as if a day-to-day matter has been blown out of proportion. Tonight:

Some days, I feel more like her unpaid therapist than a friend. Evenings out have become unpleasant to the point that we don’t socialize much anymore.

Don’t suggest confronting her. I am not looking to change the relationship. I am writing because I wish each person reading this would ask themselves, “Could this be me?” — Bored in the USA Dear Bored: Amen.

Some folks ramble on and on because they need to be the center of attention. Some fear they will forget what they intended to say if they don’t blurt it out immediately. We hope they appreciate your tolerance.

Think “weekend.”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You are a key figure in today’s Full Moon. Be aware of how little you know about the situation. Tonight: Let others act out.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might look around and wonder what is going on. Lie low, and try to steer clear of controlling people. Tonight: Get as much sleep as need be.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Keep your eye on the big picture, even if you don’t agree with what is going on. Tonight: Where all your friends are.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Listen to a higher-up, as you aren’t likely to be able to avoid him or her. Tonight: Try to juggle different people’s needs.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll be taken aback by news that heads your way.

You might need to make a call or clarify information. Tonight: Meet a friend at a preferred hangout.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Be aware of how much you can give to someone else. You’ll need to keep communication open. Tonight: Your treat.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Before people and situations demand your attention, ask yourself how you feel. Tonight: Start the weekend now.
