Teachers’ tenure cut in legislation sent to Brownback

By Scott Rothschild Twitter: @ljwrothschild

Topeka — After a weekend of bitter debates, Republicans in the Kansas Legislature on Sunday approved a bill that provides additional funds to public schools but would also repeal teacher tenure rights and provide indirect public financing for private and parochial schools.

LEGISLATURE The dramatic votes and round-the-clock meetings brought to the Statehouse hundreds of teachers whose plea to maintain job protections was rejected.

ED ELMER SORTS THROUGH A PHOTO ALBUM Thursday at his home in Oskaloosa. The photos are of his years living in Washington state, where his family home near Oso was destroyed by the massive landslide on March 22 that killed dozens of people. With Elmer are his wife, Jennifer Elmer, and mother-in-law, Mari McKee, both of whom had also lived in the Washington home before moving to Kansas a few years ago.

Area resident laments loss of neighbors, family home in Washington’s deadly landslide

By Kim Callahan kcallahan@ljworld.com

When Ed Elmer made his regular commute in Washington state, images of disaster always flickered through his mind as Mount Rainier, one of the world’s most dangerous volcanoes, loomed massively in his windshield.

What would happen if it erupted? Think of the countless commuters like him clogging Interstates 5 and 90. Imagine the devastation.

“That occurred to me every day,” he said. “What if Rainier blew up?”

What never occurred to him was that the mountain in his own backyard could simply

fall down — triggering a more intimate catastrophe, one that would rob him not only of friends and neighbors, but also of his childhood home.

“You just never thought of a mountain coming down,” he said of the March 22 landslide near tiny Oso, Wash., which — with 30 dead and more than a dozen missing — has become the worst disaster in Washington state since Mount St. Helens erupted 34 years ago.

Elmer, 42, originally from Eudora, moved to Washington with his family as a child. He

Arthur MichAel DAviD “Mike” Browning Mike Browning of Lawrence died April 5, 2014 at the age of 68.

Mike was born January 31, 1946 in Pittsburg, Kansas. He was the son of Arthur and Katheryn Browning.

As a student at Lawrence High School, he played football, basketball and baseball.

He graduated from LHS in 1964. He received a Bachelor of Science in Education from the University of Kansas in 1968 and then a Masters in Administration from Emporia State.

He began his career as a teacher of English and Journalism at De Soto High School in 1969.

While there he was a counselor and the head boys’ basketball coach.

In 1980, he came back to his alma mater, LHS, as a counselor. While at Lawrence High, he was an assistant principal, vice principal, dean of students and associate principal. He served on the Penn House, Crime Stoppers and the Lawrence High School Alumni Association boards. He retired from Lawrence Public Schools in June of 2001.

Mike married Linda Jean Murphy on August 9, 1991.

He was preceded in death by his parents and sister, Linda Boyd.

He is survived by his wife, Linda Browning; daughter, Christy Lindvall and husband Heath of Glen Allen, VA; daughter, Lori Howell and husband Mark of Lawrence, KS; six grandchildren, Erick Mayo, Cal Lindvall, Macy Howell, Kayla Lindvall, Molly Howell and Riley

A CLOSE

McKinley said. In fact, few knew a robbery had occurred.

“The suspect walked out nonchalantly,” McKinley said.

Investigators identified the taxi company and driver soon after the crime was committed. According to Lawrence police, Gaitan paid the taxi driver a “significant amount of money” to drive to Omaha, where he was dropped off at a bus station.

Lawrence police coordinated with officers from the Omaha Police Department, who located Gaitan at the bus station Saturday evening. He attempted to flee Omaha officers but was captured and arrested, police said.

Loss CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Howell; sister, Paula Rolsing and husband Tony; sister, Diana Boyd and husband Tom; sister, Kristin Black and husband Gary; and numerous nieces and nephews.

In his spare time, Mike enjoyed taking care of his grandchildren, going to Lawrence High sporting events, watching TV, going to the casino and playing practical jokes. His family was his true love, especially his grandchildren. He enjoyed watching them in sporting events, dance recitals and at their school activities.

A celebration of life event will be held from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 26, 2014 at Steve’s Place in Lawrence, Kansas. Please dress casually, bring your families and your favorite Mike Browning story to include in a scrapbook.

Mary Lou Pierce Mary Lou Pierce, 60, Lawrence, passed away Saturday, April 5, 2014, after her fight with cancer. She was born in Lawrence on Oct. 16, 1953, to Frank and Lazara Romero. In 1971, Mary Lou married Kerry Pierce, and together they raised their son Kevin and daughter Amanda.

Since 1988, Mary Lou owned and operated Pierce Day Care, where she touched the lives of countless children and their families.

She is survived by her husband Kerry, her parents, Frank and Lazara, and her children, Kevin, Amanda, and sonin-law Tom de Man. She is also survived by her siblings Anna & Eric Dawson, Diana Romero, Mark & Lori Romero, and Amy & Gabriel Chavez.

remained there from the early 1980s until 2011, when he returned to his native Kansas with his wife and two sons. They now have a 50-acre farm just north of Oskaloosa, and he runs Ed’s Automotive there in town.

The Washington house he grew up in and later inherited, about 50 miles north of Seattle, was directly in the path of the mountain that gave way two weeks ago in an epic avalanche of rock, mud, trees and shredded houses.

On that Saturday, Elmer was shopping at Orscheln in Lawrence when he got a text from a friend in Washington that said “you might want to turn on the news.” lll

Thus started an agonizing two weeks, shared by many throughout the country, of not knowing who was alive and what was left. Initial figures had the missing in the hundreds.

Elmer figured out early that his family’s home, which he had been renting to friends, was pulverized. It took longer to determine that a friend in the house, Mark Lambert, 37, was “miraculously” alive, although his arm was badly crushed and might require amputation. Elmer said Lambert told him from the intensive care unit of the hospital Thursday night that he survived because he was thrown onto a collapsing wall of the house and was able to ride it like a raft to a point of safety about an eighth of a mile away.

Lawrence police interviewed Gaitan in Omaha on Saturday and linked him to the Truity Credit Union robbery, as well as a bank robbery last week in the Kansas City area, police said.

On Wednesday, FBI investigators said the Country Club Bank, 1 Ward Parkway in Kansas City, Mo., had been robbed that afternoon. That suspect entered the bank, demanded money and fled on foot, the FBI said.

At the time of his arrest, Gaitan had an outstanding warrant through the United States Marshals Service for a parole violation, stemming from a previous conviction for bank robbery. He is being held without bond in Omaha on the federal warrant. Lawrence po-

L awrence J ournal -W orld lice are currently preparing affidavits on the local robbery charge, according to the statement.

Kansas Department of Corrections records show a Wyandotte County court convicted Gaitan of burglary of a home and possession of narcotics in March 1999. In June 2006, a Johnson County Court convicted Gaitan of attempted theft. He spent two months in prison in 2002 for the 1999 charges and six months in prison in 2007 for the attempted theft charge.

He was placed on parole in October 2007 until his sentence expired in November 2008.

By Micki Chestnut

Special to the Journal-World

A 16-year career in banking has taught America Almaraz to not be afraid to ask tough questions and to do the hard work of continually improving processes so you can achieve better results. Now Almaraz is excited to use the skills and insights she’s honed as the store manager for the Peoples Bank branch on 31st and Iowa streets to help kids in Douglas County succeed in school.

Almaraz has a vested interest in their success. As an employer, she needs a well-educated workforce from which to hire from and employees who have the training they need to do

So Almaraz raised her hand to serve as a program accountability volunteer for the education goal workgroup of the United Way of Douglas County.

She is part of a diverse team of education professionals, social

service providers, businesspeople and other community volunteers who monitor the progress United Way community partners are making toward ensuring children enter kindergarten ready to learn and fourth- and fifth-grade students are proficient in math and reading.

Boyd, 29, expects to graduate next month with a degree in business administration and hopes to pursue a graduate degree in evolutionary ecology at Purdue University.

That’s far from where her younger self ever thought she would be.

A member of the Menominee tribe from Wisconsin, Boyd grew up on a reservation and figured she’d stay there always. Raised by an aunt and surrounded by alcoholism, Boyd succumbed to the addiction at a young age.

“It was res’ life for me,” she said. “I was basically a product of my environment.”

But the buck stops there.

Now sober six and a half years, Boyd is about to become the first of her family to graduate with a four-year degree. And she’s worked hard to get it, she said, locking herself in her room for entire days to study and almost never missing class, sick or not.

“I came here to prove everybody wrong,” Boyd said. “I refuse to have

community goals of self sufficiency and health.

“I like to be a problem solver; I want to know the ‘why’ of why something is done this way and not that,” Almaraz said. She is especially interested in being a part of United Way’s efforts to challenge its community partners to work together more efficiently to avoid duplication and achieve greater, measurable results, using limited resources.

“If someone was coming to me and saying, ‘We want to change things so you can work with other organizations and help more people,’ I would want to support that. Agencies need to focus on the fact that everyone has the same goal of helping the community, so everyone needs to work together,” she said.

But she wasn’t aware of the opportunity to serve students, and the community, in this unique way until Peoples Bank selected United Way as its Peoples Partner in 2013. That’s when she learned how extensively United Way was involved in supporting myriad initiatives in Douglas County that address the challenges that keep residents from achieving education, health and selfsufficiency.

“I didn’t understand the scope of what United Way does,” she explained. “I’ve learned

that United Way is doing a whole lot more than just cutting a check to an organization.”

“Our community has identified education as one of its top goals,” said Erika Dvorske, president and CEO of the United Way of Douglas County.

“The challenges around ensuring children succeed in school are complex, so we are bringing people from different sectors of our community into the discussion.

The program accountability volunteers like America are essential for planning, implementing and evaluating the progress of our collective efforts in education.”

Teachers CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

McAlister was just one of hundreds of school teachers who converged on the Statehouse this week, hoping to persuade lawmakers not to include a repeal of teacher tenure rights as part of a school finance bill that was meant to address funding inequities between rich and poor districts.

“We talk about these kinds of things, and this is part of it,” McAlister said.

“Sometimes things go very slow in the Legislature, and how government works is not always what you want.

It’s not always clean, and it’s not always simple.”

The teachers were in Topeka already for an annual meeting of the Kansas National Education Association, the state’s largest teachers union. But they began rallying at the Statehouse Saturday, soon after news broke that the school funding bill was being linked with other issues, including repeal of tenure rights.

For the better part of two days they sat in the galleries above the House and Senate chambers, gathered in the hallways meeting with legislators as they passed by and sat in on conference committee meetings as various deals were being negotiated.

And they took to social media, staying in con-

But what the teachers saw and experienced over those two days seldom looked exactly like the textbooks. That includes meetings going late into the night and into the wee hours of the next morning; conference committees meeting on short notice at 2 a.m., or even later; and citizens camping out on the cold marble floors during long breaks between sessions.

Jonathan Goering, who teaches in Kansas City, Kan., said regardless of the outcome, his experience will make him a better teacher.

“What’s nice about the textbook now is, we’re going to be able to talk about specific things like, ‘Oh, this is what a committee is,’ and you can take them through

the process of what we’ve been through the last couple of days.”

Karen Stockwell-Withers, who teaches ninthgraders at Atchison High School, said the experience will help her translate the textbooks into real life for her students.

“The textbooks make it sound boring, and this is exciting,” she said. “I think my kids will benefit from my being down here and seeing it happen.”

In the end, the teachers lost their battle. The House and Senate narrowly approved the bill Sunday, sending it to Gov. Sam Brownback for his signature.

But Stockwell-Withers said she’s now committed to staying more involved in political issues.

“I think this has inspired me to get even more involved myself,” she said.

“It’s exhilarating watching this happen.”

AN AERIAL VIEW IN JULY OF 2013 SHOWS WHERE BOB BILLINGS PARKWAY ABRUPTLY ENDS. When construction continues on the South Lawrence Trafficway it will include a multimillion dollar interchange proejct to connect Bob Billings Parkway with the trafficway in west Lawrence. A new feasibility study will look at also expanding the western leg of the trafficway to four-lanes.

Feasibility study for western leg of South Lawrence Trafficway pitched If you have driven through North Lawrence recently, you’ve probably noticed a bunch of heavy-duty boring equipment on the lot just north of Sonic.

Perhaps you were like me and assumed it was gastrological equipment related to my upcoming summer season of Sonic hot dog eating. But no, this equipment is for a project even more impressive than what I can do to a couple dozen hot dogs in an hour.

Construction crews have begun a project to bury a huge waterline underneath the Kansas River. The line will run from the Kaw Water Treatment Plant near Burcham Park on the south side of the river, under the river and into North Lawrence. The city hopes to have the project completed before the fourth quarter of the year, although flooding on the river could change that timetable a lot.

The $5.6 million project is designed to provide a second source of drinking water to North Lawrence.

Currently, the only water line that runs into North Lawrence is an old line that is connected to the bottom of one of the Kansas River bridges in downtown Lawrence.

Construction crews will bore a hole 70 feet below the water level of the Kansas River. Engineers have determined that’s the depth at which there is a solid layer of sandstone that can be used to support the pipe.

This is the type of project that you only want to do once, so city officials aren’t being skimpy on the size of pipe that will run beneath the river.

Plans call for the pipe to have an inside diameter of 36 inches. For comparison’s sake, the pipe that runs under the Kansas River bridge is 16 inches. Engineers report this new pipe will be the largest single pipe in the

Town Talk

city’s water distribution system.

Part of the reason for such a large pipe is that eventually, the city plans to serve not only North Lawrence with the waterline but also parts of southeast Lawrence, including the new Lawrence Venture Park.

Sometime between 2019 and 2025, the city plans to run another waterline underneath the Kansas River, except this one will be under the river near the eastern edge of the city.

But back to the current project for a moment. A city official did recently ask an engineer an interesting question: What happens if there is a leak in the pipe under the river?

The short answer: That wouldn’t be good.

Engineers said that is why they have spent a lot of time thinking about the right pipe to use for the project. The pipe is a special PVC pipe that is molecularly fused together, said Philip Ciesielski, assistant director of utilities for the city.

Ciesielski said the city has a key goal with this project: “We’ll pull this pipe through, and hopefully nobody will ever see it again.”

I know I’ve certainly said something similar about the 24th hot dog. lll

It’s like my wife always says: You have to strike while the iron is hot. (This is one of the reasons why I always hide when my wife has

a hot iron in her hand.)

However you interpret that saying, it appears the Kansas Department of Transportation is taking it to heart when it comes to the South Lawrence Trafficway.

State officials are beginning the process to hire a consulting firm that will study the feasibility of expanding the western leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway to four lanes. A consultant could be hired this summer, and the study could be completed about 18 months later. The study is estimated to cost $1.5 million, and it is envisioned the state would pay for the plan.

The trafficway always has been planned to be a four-lane highway, but when the western leg of the trafficway was built in the 1990s, traffic demand only called for two lanes at the time.

After a couple of decades of lawsuits and protests, the eastern leg of the trafficway is now under construction.

When it is completed in 2016, it will be a fourlane freeway. So, for that reason alone, it makes sense that KDOT is interested in planning for four lanes on the western portion of the bypass.

But it also makes sense for another reason: The South Lawrence Trafficway is on a roll. Ever since the project won a key federal ruling at the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver in July 2012, the project has had a lot of blue skies.

The Legislature easily included the needed funding for the project in the state’s transportation plan. Then bids for the $130 million project came in about $20 million lower than what engineers had estimated.

If the plan does proceed, it likely would still be several years before the state would have money to fund the project. But local leaders likely will take an inter-

est in the study because it will consider possible modifications to intersections. The western leg of the trafficway has two at-grade intersections: one at basically Kasold extended and the other near the YSI sports complex and Lawrence Rotary Arboretum. The one near YSI and the arboretum has been particularly dangerous. Last summer, a bicyclist trying to cross the freeway at the intersection was killed when struck by a motorist. Other serious accidents have occurred at the site as well.

The NCQA’s cited Praeger’s decades of elected service working across party lines to improve health care quality as the basis for the recognition, according to a press release.

Praeger, a Lawrence resident, has served as insurance commissioner since 2003.

The largest construction project started thus far in 2014 is a major addition at the Corpus Christi Catholic School, 6001 Bob Billings Parkway. City officials have issued a permit for $2.3 million worth of construction work at the West Lawrence school and church.

School principal Mary Mattern told me the project will include three additional classrooms, a multimedia library and technology area, a twostory music space and new offices for administration and teacher work areas. The space will be used both by the school and the church for religious classes and parish activities.

The school serves preschoolers through eighthgraders, and enrollment has been growing. Mattern said the school has averaged an 8 percent enrollment growth each of the past five years. Enrollment now stands at a little more than 300 students.

The construction project is expected to be completed by the beginning of the next school year.

Star-crossed plan The design for an Eisenhower Memorial has hit yet another roadblock.

I

t seems that the well-deserved memorial to honor the nation’s 34th president will have to wait a little longer.

Planning for a Washington, D.C., monument to honor President Dwight Eisenhower has been underway for about 15 years. Last week, the plans hit yet another roadblock when the National Capital Planning Commission, which oversees plans for monuments in the nation’s capital, rejected the current design and sent it back to architects for revisions.

Although there is broad consensus that Eisenhower, who grew up in Abilene, Kan., is more than deserving of this national honor, the memorial’s design by well-known architect Frank Gehry has had a troubled history. Gehry’s first renderings were criticized by the Eisenhower family for placing too much emphasis on his Kansas upbringing and not enough on his heroic leadership in World War II and in the White House.

Even after revisions, Gehry’s plan, which included statues of Eisenhower framed by large metal tapestries depicting his boyhood in Kansas, continued to draw criticism from the family. In 2012, John Eisenhower, the president’s son who died last year, said the family believed the design “attempts to do too much,” and, with its estimated $142 million price tag, was “too extravagant.”

It’s true that Ike probably would be embarrassed not only by the cost of the memorial but by the controversy it has triggered. The latest objections from the D.C. planning group focus on the scale of the monument, especially the large columns that would hold the stainless steel tapestries and potentially hamper views of the nearby U.S. Capitol building.

It’s important to get this project right, but it’s also important to get it done.

Private fundraising will be a key part of financing the memorial and that will become more and more difficult as the number of people who actually knew Eisenhower declines.

It’s probably too late to start over on this star-crossed project, but we hope the Eisenhower family and the capitol planners soon will be able to agree on a suitable monument to honor a favorite son of Kansas.

U.S. still drives free-trade agenda Washington — Name a foreign-policy issue on which China and most of the rest of the world’s nations are struggling to keep up with a U.S. initiative. If you guessed “free trade,” you’re correct.

In a season that has mostly brought reversals for Obama administration efforts abroad, the free-trade agenda keeps on chugging. The massive weight of the U.S. economy creates incentives for cooperation with America, rather than resentment.

The pacesetter is the negotiation for a Trans-Pacific Partnership that would include the U.S. and 11 other nations. This idea has gathered force since President Obama announced the negotiation in late 2009, and it now involves powerhouse countries on both sides of the Pacific such as Mexico, Japan, Canada and Australia.

Michael Froman, the U.S. trade representative, hopes this so-called “TPP” negotiation is nearing the endgame. On the tricky issue of intellectual property rights, there are now fewer than 10 unresolved issues, down from 125 last September.

U.S. officials think a breakthrough could come if Japan opens markets to more food imports, such as beef, pork and dairy products, and Canada follows with concessions on several issues.

A Pacific agreement is important because it would add momentum for truly global trade standards and market access. The TPP countries account for about

“

The massive weight of the U.S. economy creates incentives for cooperation with America, rather than resentment.”

40 percent of the world’s GDP and 40 percent of U.S. exports. According to the trade representative’s office, an agreement could add $223 billion to global income by 2025 and boost U.S. exports by $124 billion. That means jobs, here and abroad.

The only major Asian player left out of the TPP club would be China — which is making Beijing nervous. With freer trade elsewhere in Asia, Western companies that are frustrated with manufacturing in China — because of low profits, corruption, pollution and theft of intellectual property there — could decide to pull up stakes.

China has been asking U.S. officials privately if it might join a TPP follow-on. Beijing is also negotiating an investment agreement with the U.S. that could open China to

much freer Western activity.

The most telling indication of Chinese angst is their proposal of a TPP-like pact with Europe. “We must work to make China and the EU the twin engines for global economic growth,” Chinese President Xi Jinping said Tuesday in Bruges, Belgium, in urging the pact.

China’s problem is that the EU is already deep into negotiations for a new trade agreement with the U.S. This one is known as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or “TTIP,” to acronym-lovers.

An agreement among the 28 EU countries and the U.S. would cover about 45 percent of the world’s GDP and 30 percent of global trade.

The European trade talks got off to a rocky start last summer, in the shadow of Edward Snowden’s revelations about NSA surveillance, which infuriated Europeans. There was some talk of suspending the TTIP negotiation, but cooler heads prevailed, and there have now been four rounds of talks.

To try to harmonize European and American productsafety standards on autos, drugs and cosmetics, regulatory agencies on both sides of the Atlantic are talking directly. The model is common air-safety rules agreed on by America and Europe a few years ago.

As always in trade talks, negotiators must overcome parochial protectionism. Europeans argue that Parmesan cheese should only come

from Italy and Feta cheese from Greece. The U.S. has similar petty protections, and Congress is often a stumbling block to free-trade agreements, despite their job-creating benefits.

European anxiety about NSA snooping remains a problem. European politicians have talked about creating a “Euro-cloud” that would, in theory, be free from U.S. surveillance. But business leaders argue that such efforts to ring-fence data are “not the way,” in the words of SAP Chairman Hasso Plattner, because they might cut European companies off from global markets. The Russian threat in Ukraine also makes partnership with the U.S. more attractive, despite worries about the NSA. What’s dawning on people is that there’s a tipping point in global trade. If the U.S. can complete the Pacific and Atlantic partnerships, it will have framed standards and market access for about two-thirds of the global economy. At that point, it becomes economic suicide for China, Brazil and India to remain outside.

Free trade is one of those subjects that often make people’s eyes glaze over. But it’s an area where America remains an indisputable superpower — and where its trade partners increasingly seem ready to work by common rules.

Minimum wage

Columnists off-base

To the editor: Opponents of a minimum wage increase are doing an excellent job of making it sound like a government handout.

They suggest that it constitutes government interference in a market that determines wages some other way. The truth is, for better or worse, federal minimum wage laws are what determine wages in the United States.

Labor is a commodity and it comes at a price. Unlike physical commodities, labor isn’t sold by companies, just the laborers themselves. There’s no such thing as collective bargaining any more; with so many employees in the job market, it’s too easy for companies to simply lay off or fire their employees and hire new ones. In order to get around that, all workers have to come together and demand changes from all employers at once.

Currently, millions of people on minimum wage also utilize public assistance programs. Some employers that pay minimum wage (or slightly more) even encourage their employees to take advantage of those programs. A minimum wage increase isn’t a public assistance program; it actually means that American taxpayers will no longer have to give workers what they should rightfully earn from their employers.

Unlike congressional Republicans, I believe that American workers would rather earn a living than be given one.

In the same way that drivers won’t drive below the speed limit unless they have to, employers won’t pay more than minimum wage unless they have to. Until companies are obligated to pay more, they won’t. It’s as simple as that.

Steven Davis, Lawrence

To the editor: Put Charles Krauthammer and Trudy Rubin in charge of foreign policy and they would have us neck deep in Middle East war and in the Ukraine as well — wars we could not possibly win. They also know that there is zero chance that the American public would be in favor of either.

In the end, the people in the Ukraine will decide their own fate and Syria will continue until hell freezes over no matter what we do. We are not a paramount power in this world today nor should we be. In fact, having American troops in 150 different countries in the world, as we do now, is unaffordable and most should be returned to the U.S. Afghanistan and Pakistan will never change appreciably no matter how many American troops are there. This has been true as long as these nations have existed and it will always be a struggle by internal groups in both these nations for control. At least they will be heavily engaged killing each other instead of our troops.

These columnists are just doing their very best to charge President Obama with being as inadequate as Bush Jr. Forget about it. On his worst day, Obama was head and shoulders ahead of Bush on his best day.

Everett Hickam, Lawrence

Don’t blame ethanol To the editor: Kansas University biologist Chip Taylor has brought ethanol to the top of his list of enemies to monarch

butterflies in an article published on March 31. Over the years, Taylor has blamed global warming, drought and improved weed control for declining monarch populations. Now, he claims ethanol production is forcing wild prairie into crop production, destroying butterfly habitat. That is simply not true.

The ethanol industry continues to produce at consistent levels in 2014, yet last week’s USDA 2014 prospective plantings report showed a decrease of 3.7 million acres of corn to be planted in the U.S. Many factors influence a farmer’s planting decisions, including market prices and weather. In Kansas, we farm about 20 million acres of land producing mostly corn, wheat, soybeans and sorghum. Acreages shift between crops, but the amount of Kansas farmland remains consistent.

Farmers should be recognized for the substantial amount of natural habitat on their farms. Instead of blaming ethanol and agriculture for loss of habitat for monarch butterflies, perhaps the loss of farmland and natural habitat to urban growth should be a greater concern.

Agriculture continues to produce more feed, food and energy from a stable or declining number of acres to meet the needs of a growing population. Ethanol has been blamed for causing many issues depending on the philosophy of a respective author – and the facts continue to disprove the basis of such attacks. That is true here as well. I wonder where next year’s blame will be placed.

Obama plans action Malaysia jet seekers to promote equal pay race toward signal

Separatists storm Ukraine buildings

W ashington — President Barack Obama is planning two executive actions this week to promote equal pay for women — and to promote equal pay as a critical issue for Democrats this election year.

One action, an executive order, will prohibit federal contractors from retaliating against employees who talk about how much money they make, according to an administration official familiar with the plans.

The other, a presidential memorandum, will require contractors to report data to the government showing the compensation they provide their employees by sex and race.

Kiev, Ukraine — Crowds of pro-Russian demonstrators stormed government buildings Sunday in several major cities in eastern Ukraine, where secessionist sentiment has sparked frequent protests since Ukraine’s Russia-friendly president was ousted in February.

In Donetsk, 50 miles west of the Russian border, a large group of people, including many in masks carrying sticks and stones, surged into the provincial government building and smashed windows.

A gathering of several hundred, many of them waving Russian flags, then listened to speeches delivered from a balcony emblazoned with a banner reading “Donetsk Republic.”

Activists in the building said they want to see a referendum for the Donetsk province to join Russia.

—Reporter Peter Hancock also contributed to this story.

Perth, Australia — Searchers hunting for the missing Malaysia Airlines jet raced toward a patch of the southern Indian Ocean on Sunday to determine whether a few brief sounds picked up by underwater equipment came from the plane’s black boxes, whose battery-powered pingers are on the verge of dying out.

The two black boxes contain flight data and cockpit voice recordings that could solve one of the most baffling mysteries in modern aviation: who or what caused Flight 370 to veer radically off course and vanish March 8 while traveling from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Beijing with 239 people on board.

for over 12 years. I have had not one superintendent during my time in the Legislature say, ‘Gee, you know, Tom, we’ve really got to cut back on that teacher due process.’

I haven’t heard one iota from a superintendent in my district talking about this being a problem.”

Hundreds of teachers packed the Statehouse on Saturday and Sunday to protest the proposal, saying that due process regulations help provide teachers job protection against unjust dismissal and helps with the efficient operation of schools. They were praised by legislators on the right and left for being civil.

State Rep. Marvin Kleeb, R-Overland Park, however, said the proposal will make it easier to get rid of incompetent teachers, which would help competent teachers.

“It has been framed as anti-teacher, but it is anything but,” he said.

The bill also provides a 70 percent tax credit for corporations that contribute to scholarship funds enabling low-income students and students from the lowest-performing public schools to pay tuition at private or parochial schools.

ditional state funding across the board for all school districts’ local option budgets — additional money they’re allowed to raise above and beyond their base state aid.

“I think we have hit all the points we need to hit,” Merrick said.

But throughout the process, conservative Republicans insisted on attaching additional policy changes to the bill.

The most controversial of those would be to exempt K-12 teachers from a law that has been on the books since 1957 that says if they have been on the job three or more years, they are entitled to an administrative due process hearing before they can be fired or have their contract nonrenewed for the following year — rights commonly known as “tenure.”

Democrats strongly opposed repeal of those protections. Members of the Douglas County legislative delegation all voted against the bill. That included state Sens. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, and Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City; House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, and Reps. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, and John Wilson, D-Lawrence.

Speaker Ray Merrick, R-Stilwell, walked by a group of teachers who stood silently, but one man said to him, “You should be ashamed of yourself. That was a (expletive) way to make policy.” Merrick replied, “I don’t feel any shame.”

The man later told those around him, “Sorry, I shouldn’t have said that.”

The bill was approved 63-57 in the House after passing on a 22-16 vote in the Senate — just one more yes vote than the minimum number required in the Senate. Only Republicans supported it.

The measure now goes to Gov. Sam Brownback, a Republican, for consideration. Late Sunday, he issued a statement praising the bill. Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer and other top officials in the Brownback administration were on hand for the vote in the House and congratulated Republican leaders.

The vote concluded a weekend of long meetings, including a 3 a.m. conference committee that Democrats alleged violated the Kansas Open Meetings Act and a rancorous Senate debate which brought assertions of procedural abuses from Democrats and some Republicans.

The base bill, which provides additional state aid for the capital outlay and local option budgets of less wealthy districts, was intended to answer a recent Kansas Supreme Court ruling in a school finance lawsuit.

SUNFLOWER BASEBALL SHOWDOWN

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

’Cats, Huskies like cats, dogs Here’s the beauty of tonight’s matchup for the college basketball national title: It blows to bits every theory about what it takes to make it to the season’s final night.

It takes an army of oneand-done superstars and a brash veteran college basketball coach who has taken multiple schools to the Final Four. Just look at Kentucky if you believe otherwise. The Wildcats will start five freshmen tonight for John Calipari, who no matter what the official record book says coached UMass and Memphis to the Final Four and won it all with Kentucky in 2012.

No, wait. It takes a veteran lineup with great guards (Shabazz Napier and Ryan Boatright).

UConn starts a sophomore, two juniors and two seniors. It also requires a coach with recent NBA playing experience. Coaching experience is not a requirement. Don’t believe that? Then how did Kevin Ollie, an NBA player as recently as the 2009-2010 season, when he played for the Oklahoma City Thunder, his 12th team (11th franchise, he also played for the Seattle SuperSonics), make it? Coaching experience?

He was an assistant to Jim Calhoun for one year and is in his second year as head coach of his alma mater.

He’s the Fred Hoiberg of the East.

It takes a starting lineup loaded with protypical NBA bodies to play for the national title. Kentucky’s perimeter players stand 6-foot-6, 6-6, 6-6, and the post players check in at 6-9 and 7-feet. UConn measures 6-foot, 6-1, 6-7, 6-9, 6-10. Average weight of Kentucky’s five starters: 233 pounds; UConn: 192 pounds. Napier, generously listed at 6-1, led the Huskies in rebounding with 5.8 per game.

You don’t get to the title game unless you consistently win the battle of the boards. Kentucky ranks second in the nation a plus-9.7 rebounding margin. Oops, UConn (plus-0.4) isn’t close to being the best rebounding team in the nutmeg state. That honor belongs to Quinnipiac (first in the nation).

Duncan pitches KU to series win

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Manhattan — Thanks to strong defense, a couple of timely hits and the stellar right arm of starting pitcher Frank Duncan, Kansas University picked up its first baseball-series victory over Kansas State since 2006 after a 2-1 victory on Sunday at Tointon Stadium.

Duncan, a senior who a couple of years ago actually hosted a recruiting visit for the guy he found himself locked in a pitcher’s duel with Sunday, threw a complete game, allowing seven hits, one earned run and one walk while striking out three.

“It was all him today,” KU coach Ritch Price said. “He won the baseball game for us.

There’s no doubt.”

Despite the close nature of Sunday’s contest, the Jayhawks maintained the upper hand throughout. Senior outfielder Tucker Tharp got the scoring started with a solo home run to left field

in the top of the second inning, and the Jayhawks (21-11 overall, 5-4 Big 12) made it 2-0 when Ryan Pidhaichuk’s sacrifice fly in the fifth drove in leadoff hitter Justin Protacio, who reached base in all five of his plate appearances.

The Wildcats (18-13, 2-4) answered the KU run with one of their own in the bottom of the fifth and may have tacked on more if not for the cat-like quickness of freshman right fielder Joven Afenir, who corralled two hits to the corner and made bigtime throws that prevented the Wildcats from adding on.

Asked if he realized how big the plays were when he made them, the freshman, who was instrumental in helping KU win this series, smiled and nodded.

“Definitely,” he said. “A ball down the right-field line, I know they have a chance to get to third or score, so I was just trying to get the ball as soon as I could, turn around and throw it. ... Even the umpire commented on how it might have saved the game.”

The Jayhawks nearly broke the game open in the top of the ninth. Aaron Hernandez started with a leadoff base hit. Ka’iana Eldredge fol-

UConn, Kentucky unlikely finalists

Arlington, Texas (ap) — Connecticut and Kentucky couldn’t have met in last year’s championship game, and few people gave them a chance to be in this year’s.

Seventh-seeded Connecticut and eighth-seeded Kentucky meet tonight in one of the unlikeliest NCAA championship games ever.

Neither was around in last Please see KEEGAN, page 3B year’s postseason — Con-

necticut because of a tournament ban over academic issues; Kentucky because it didn’t make the field. And neither looked like nationaltitle contenders at times this season.

Kentucky (29-10) and its outstanding freshmen went from preseason No. 1 to out of the rankings after some bad losses. And Connecticut (31-8) was not a popular postseason pick after fin-

ishing tied for third in the American Athletic Conference with multiple losses to Louisville and SMU. In the tournament, the Huskies have stopped some of the country’s top guards and put themselves in position for their fourth national championship, the previous three under Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame coach Jim Calhoun.

These two programs have combined to win six of the last 18 NCAA titles.

Neither program could say that last year.

lowed with a perfectly placed bunt single that started out as a sacrifice attempt. And Protacio reached base on another sacrifice bunt attempt gone really right.

Those three at-bats chased K-State starter Nate Griep from the game after eight innings. But reliever Ethan Landon, who inherited a bases-loaded, no-outs situation, retired the next three Kansas batters to keep the Wildcats within a run heading into the bottom of the ninth.

“We had the bases loaded three times with less than two outs and, usually, you get beat when you don’t take care of scoring opportunities like that,” Price said.

Added Duncan: “I was definitely cheering a little harder for my hitters there in the last inning.”

Instead of getting a cushion to work with, Duncan trotted back to the mound looking for the complete game in a pressure-packed

AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE

NCAA head: EAST SOUTH AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE Unionization EAST ‘inappropriate’ Roundup Arlington, Texas — The NCAA president called an effort to unionize players a ‘’grossly inappropriate’’ way to solve problems in college sports while insisting the association has plans to change the school-athlete relationship.

Mark Emmert said Sunday that the NCAA wants to allow the big conferences with moneymaking teams to write their own rules, and those changes could solve many athletes’ complaints more effectively than unionization. ‘’To be perfectly frank, the notion of using a union-employee model to address the challenges that exist in intercollegiate athletics is something that strikes most people as a grossly inappropriate solution to the problems,’’ Emmert said at his annual news conference, held the day before college basketball’s national championship.

He said it would ‘’throw away the entire collegiate model for athletics.’’

Jones wins Houston, trip to Augusta Humble, Texas — Matt Jones earned his first trip to the Masters with a remarkable 42yard chip-in on the first playoff hole, outdueling Matt Kuchar on his way to winning the Houston Open on Sunday.

The win is the first on the PGA Tour for the Australian, who made a 46-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole to reach the playoff.

He ended it one hole later, chipping over the right front bunker on the 18th and watching it roll in.

Kuchar, who bogeyed the final hole of regulation, then missed his bunker shot to give Jones the win — earning him nearly $1.2 million and a trip to Augusta National.

Jones, who began the day six shots back of Kuchar, shot a final-round 66 and ended the tournament 15 under overall.

In September, Jones lipped out an eight-foot birdie putt on the last hole of the BMW Championship — a putt that would have earned him a trip to next week’s Masters by sending him to the Tour Championship.

GOLF

Thompson wins LPGA Nabisco Rancho Mirage, Calif. — Lexi Thompson left Michelle Wie behind Sunday — off the tee and on the leaderboard in the Kraft Nabisco Championship.

The 19-year-old Thompson beat Wie into Poppie’s Pond, too, capping the breakthrough major victory with the traditional victory leap into the water near the 18th green.

“It’s just a dream come true,” Thompson said.

Thompson closed with a bogey-free 4-under 68 for a threestroke victory. She birdied four of the first nine holes to open a five-stroke lead and parred the final nine.

AUTO RACING

NASCAR race ppd Fort Worth, Texas — The Sprint Cup Series race at Texas Motor Speedway has been postponed by rain.

It will be run at 11 a.m. today, nine hours before the start of the NCAA national championship game in nearby Arlington.

It’s the third time in seven Sprint Cup Series races this season that rain has hampered the event. The season-opening Daytona 500 was stopped for more than six hours, and the race at Bristol Motor Speedway had two delays totaling more than five hours.

Sunday’s event at Texas didn’t start as scheduled as steady rain saturated the track. NASCAR’s new track drying system requires two hours to dry the 1.5-mile speedway, but the unseasonably cool temperatures made the task more difficult.

KANSAS HOOPS NOTEBOOK

KU 8-21 vs. NCAA finalists

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University has played NCAA Tournament finalist Kentucky 27 times and Connecticut twice.

The Jayhawks are 2-0 versus UConn. KU defeated the Huskies in 1995 in Kemper Arena in Kansas City, Mo., and in 1998 in Hartford.

Kentucky holds a 21-6 record versus KU. The Jayhawks, however, have won three of the past five meetings. Kentucky won the last matchup, 67-59, in the 2012 NCAA title game in New Orleans. l

Ties to Larry: Former KU coach Larry Brown, who just completed his second season at SMU, has served as a mentor for the head coaches in tonight’s NCAA title game.

UConn’s Kevin Ollie played for Brown with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Kentucky’s John Calipari worked for Brown at Kansas and with the Sixers.

“The only text I got (after NCAA semifinal win over Florida) was from coach Brown, just saying congratulations and have fun with it,” Ollie told Fox Sports Southwest. “I love him to death. I had an opportunity to talk to him this morning and he just gave me some sound advice: Have fun, don’t make it complicated.”

And Larry said, ‘I’m going to hang up the phone on you if you don’t go back to UConn. I thought you were smarter than that.’

That’s his exact words.”

Calipari has long made known his admiration for

Brown, who led KU to the 1988 national title.

“It was funny, because you end up dressing like him, walking like him.

Now I’m having to have my hips replaced like him,” Calipari said.

On a serious note ...

“I just learned so much from him,” Calipari said.

“He’s been special to me.

He’s a mentor, a friend, and obviously now we’re all seeing he hasn’t lost it as a coach.”

Brown led his second SMU team to a 27-10 record, one short of a school record for victories. The Mustangs reached the fi-

Brown praised Calipari for keeping his team together after the country’s preseason No. 1 team dropped out of the rankings.

“You know, everybody expected them to be 400,” Brown told the Dallas Morning News, “and here they are. … I think most people expected them to be there, but he’s done a terrific job of picking them up, and those kids have responded.”

Of Ollie, Brown said: “I’ve had a lot of great kids play for me. He’s

Lightning ends women’s tourney Dallas — The third and final round of the SMU Women’s Golf Invitational Sunday was canceled 45 minutes in Sunday due to lightning in the Dallas area.

As a result, Kansas University placed fifth in the 16-team field with a two-round total of 605.

“We embarrassed ourselves on Friday (in a 10-0 loss), and we embarrassed ourselves last

their hard work, dedication and desire to win. I’m thankful for the parents that were helpful and supportive of our journey to succeed. I’m thankful for the administration and my coaching staff that were always supportive of my vision. I’m thankful for my family for their love and support as coaching takes so much time away from them.

My love for coaching and basketball will never waver so I’ll continue to be around the game. Private/ Group/Team Workouts, camps and clinics will be coming soon. And of course this frees up time for me to coach Mav’s bright basketball future.”

Undefeateds UConn, Notre Dame in final The Associated Press

Connecticut 75, Stanford 56 Nashville, Tenn. — The Connecticut Huskies are back in a very familiar position, undefeated and playing for a national championship.

They’ll be going for an unprecedented ninth national championship after Breanna Stewart scored 18 points and the Huskies advanced to another title game with a 75-56 victory against Stanford on Sunday night.

Don’t bet on Food’s casino show Now for something completely odd. “The Apprentice” winner Bill Rancic hosts “Kitchen Casino” (8 p.m., Food), a gambling-themed, game show cooking competition. Competing chefs play various casino games: slots, roulette and poker. The outcome of these games determines the dishes the chefs must prepare.

And if that weren’t strange, even pointless, enough, the chefs must work in kitchen stations that revolve like a roulette w h e e l .

This may leave players and viewers feeling slightly queasy — if they weren’t already slightly nauseated by the concept of the show.

“In Performance at the White House: Women of Soul” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) celebrates female singers from blues, soul, jazz, R&B and rock ‘n’ roll. Performers include Tessanne Chin, Melissa Etheridge, Aretha Franklin, Ariana Grande, Patti LaBelle, Janelle Monae and Jill Scott. The president and first lady host.

“Independent Lens” (9 p.m., PBS, check local listings) continues the night’s musical trend with “Brothers Hypnotic,” a profile of the eight members of the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble.

It’s rare enough to see, or hear, an eight-member brass band in this age of synthesized music, but the members of this band are all brothers — sons of jazz iconoclast Phil Cohran, a member of the Sun Ra Arkestra. He raised them on a steady diet of jazz, funk and black consciousness, starting music lessons every morning at 6. ‘‘Brothers” follows them as they perform in venues far from their native Chicago and struggle to live up to their father’s philosophy and expectations, while at the same time trying to forge an identity of their own.

Tonight’s other highlights

Joe targets the son of a prominent critic on “The Following” (8 p.m., Fox).

“Beyond the Wormhole With Morgan Freeman” (9 p.m., Science) examines the search for Earth-like planets in other solar systems.

Red proves cooperative on “The Blacklist” (9 p.m., NBC).

Dear Annie: A few years ago, my brother announced that he should have been born a female. He started counseling and three years ago legally changed his first name and began living as a woman. This devastated my parents and two of my siblings, and they have disowned him.

I have not seen my brother since then.

Our youngest sibling, “Paul,” embraced the change and kept in touch with him. Paul is getting married soon and wants a family wedding, complete with his sister “Jane.” My parents are devastated all over again. They refuse to attend the wedding if Jane is there. Jane has no desire to be in the lives of our family at all, except for our youngest sibling.
