In March, Truven Health Analytics named Lawrence Memorial Hospital one of the best 100 hospitals in the nation for the second year in a row. On Wednesday, a Truven official came to LMH to let its leaders know why. Her message: consistent improvement.

“We look at whether you’re constantly improving, and that’s probably more important than where you end up at any point in time,” said Jean

Chenoweth, senior vice president for Truven’s Center for Performance Improvement. “It’s your culture.”

For its survey, Truven HEALTH scored 2,803 short-term, acute-care hospitals on several performance measures and included the top 20 in five categories, from major teaching hospitals to small community hospitals. No other hospi-

tals in Kansas or the Kansas City metropolitan area made this year’s list.

LMH’s five-year improvement statistics were better than 97 percent of medium-sized, community-based hospitals, Chenoweth said, noting that LMH won in that toughest category, which includes about 1,000 hospitals.

Part-time job fair coming to KU on Monday

DEATHS

A part-time job fair with employers from the Lawrence and Kansas City areas is coming to the Kansas University campus Monday.

Sponsored by the University Career Center, the event will run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the fourth-floor lobby of the

Tax

Kansas Union.

A full list of attending employers can be found at the KU Career Connections website, ku-csm.symplicity.com/students.

A list of current part-time, off-campus student job vacancies can also be found at career.ku.edu/ptjobs.

“

It is going to be about a $100,000 bill for us to do the mail CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A election, but that is other projects that are what is called for in coming after that,” said the legislation.”

Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug.

“We don’t want to be in competition with these other projects, but we want people to know the discussion is coming.”

In terms of the jail project, community leaders were told Wednesday that the county already is spending about $250,000 a year to house inmates in other county jails.

The jail’s inmate population is expected to grow about 7 percent per year, so those costs are almost certain to increase, Weinaug said.

The inmate population increases are coming despite efforts to keep people out of jail. Leaders were told Douglas County has the lowest per capita inmate population of any county in the state.

A preliminary report

by Lawrence-based Treanor Architects estimated the 196-bed jail may need to be expanded by about 140 beds, with 70 of them devoted to inmates in need of mental health treatment. Cost estimates for the expansion haven’t yet been developed. Sheriff Ken McGovern said much of the cost and size of the expansion will be dependent on how innovative the community decides to be in providing mental health treatment to inmates.

Weinaug said a big decision also will have to be made by county commissioners on whether to put the jail issue to a countywide vote. Weinaug said he believes the county would have the necessary budget authority to proceed without a countywide vote, but said commissioners may want to put the issue to the voters regardless. Weinaug said his research has indicated

systems because it isn’t meant for consumers but to let hospitals know how they can improve. “You can’t buy in, you can’t apply and you can’t buy your way out if you don’t like your score,” she said.

She said LMH excelled in average length of stay, where it scored 22 percent higher than the national benchmark; complications (4 percent better); and patient satisfaction (3 percent higher).

But LMH CEO Gene Meyer said the hospital would like to improve patient satisfaction even more, which is why it has a steering committee dedicated to service excellence.

“I think our scores need a little bit of work,” said committee member Megan Pedersen, director of Lawrence General Surgery, Lawrence Neurology and Lawrence GI Con-

sultants. “Patient-centered communication and how we communicate with our patients is key to how our patients feel about us.”

She said it is crucial to reduce anxiety in patients so staffers can better help them fix their medical problems. That means saying “Relax, you’re in good hands” rather than “Good luck on your surgery!” she said.

Meanwhile, Chenoweth said Truven is considering new metrics for its 2015 survey, including emergency room performance, Medicare spending per beneficiary and 30-day readmission rates for hips and knees. She noted that LMH performs well in all three areas.

“In summary, your strengths are almost everywhere,” Chenoweth said, adding that LMH could look to improve its safety targets and profit margin while continuing to invest. “You need to share what you’re doing with your peers.”

After Chenoweth’s presentation, the hospital’s

board of trustees gathered for its monthly meeting.

The board learned that LMH would not be fined by the federal government for a 2011 patient data breach that left patient financial information online.

The breach was revealed after a patient discovered a family member’s billing information on Google. LMH found out that online bill pay vendor Mid Continent Credit Services had left the data unsecured.

But the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Civil Rights recently announced that it would not take legal action against LMH. Julie Roth, an attorney who represented the hospital in the matter, said that was likely because LMH was so cooperative with the government’s investigation and proactive in assisting patients who may have been affected.

She noted that the Office of Civil Rights recently came to a $4.8 million settlement with two oth-

— Rick Doll, Lawrence schools superintendent a new sales tax initiative won’t be an option to fund a jail, unless the state legislature grants the county permission to create a special sales tax. Absent that, property taxes are the most likely funding source for the project.

Weinaug estimates the county will need the jail expansion in about three years, but he estimates it may take two years to build consensus and do the necessary research and design of a facility. He said the commission may seek to hire an architect in a matter of weeks.

Lawrence public school district officials also are nearing a major funding issue. Superintendent Rick Doll said the district is preparing to conduct its first-ever mail ballot election, likely sometime in January or February. The election is necessary under a new state law that requires an election if districts want to set their local option budgets at a 33 percent rate rather than a 31 percent rate. The law dictates that the election be held by mail ballot.

“It is going to be about a $100,000 bill for us to do the mail election, but that is what is called for in the legislation,” Doll said.

At stake is about $1.5 million to $2 million in funding for the district’s 2015-2016 school year. The school board recently finalized the budget for the 2014-2015 school year. It includes the 33 percent local option budget. State lawmakers gave school boards the discretion to set the local option buder hospitals following a similar breach, and that the government has lately become more stringent in its enforcement of patient confidentiality.

The trustees also found out Wednesday that the hospital performed well on hospital accountability standards put in place by the Affordable Care Act. LMH will earn a 0.63 percent Medicare reimbursement incentive for value-based purchasing in fiscal 2015, which starts Oct. 1, after earning high marks on process of care, patient experience, patient outcomes and efficiency.

However, the hospital will receive a 0.005-percent penalty on Medicare patients for not performing up to standards on hospital readmissions, though it will not be penalized for hospital-acquired infections since it not did rank among the bottom quarter of hospitals on that measure.

get without a districtwide vote this year, but will require a public vote next year.

Doll said he is confident the 33 percent local option budget rate won’t push tax bills higher than they are this year, although specific figures won’t be available until closer to the election.

Instead, Doll said, voters will have to decide whether they want to cut the amount of taxes they pay to the school district.

“If we lose $2 million in funding, that will be tough,” Doll said.

“There would have to be some cuts.”

Doll said board members have directed him to start conducting an extensive education campaign on the issue because there is concern that the issue may create confusion with voters.

Voters will get their first chance in the ballot box on Nov. 4, when Lawrence residents go to the polls to consider a 0.2 percent sales tax increase that would fund the police headquarters.

The tax is projected to stay on the books for nine years in order to pay for the new headquarters.

City commissioners, county commissioners and school board members agreed to hold another joint meeting shortly after voters go to the polls in November. The group will meet Nov. 10 to discuss other issues that the governing bodies may need to work together on.

delivered are boosting the economy or potentially ruining the state’s finances.

Brownback and his supporters insist that his policies — particularly aggressive personal income tax cuts — have helped to create nearly 55,000 new private-sector jobs since he took office in January 2011. The Legislature’s nonpartisan research staff issued a new budget forecast earlier this month predicting a $238 million budget shortfall by July 2016 and the state’s credit rating has been downgraded.

Christie said he never expected Kansas to be an easy win for Brownback, noting that the state previously elected Democrat Kathleen Sebelius as its governor.

“Kansas voters are independent thinkers,” Christie said. “What they expect and what they will acknowledge on Nov. 4 is a governor who is willing to stand up and make the hard choices and Sam Brownback has been that kind of governor.”

Brownback criticized his campaign opponent as an “Obama Democrat” and attributed some of his challenges to people not knowing “the truth.”

chance of getting a B or better in a corresponding college course, or a 75 percent chance of earning a C or better.

According to the 2014 report, 31 percent met the benchmarks in all four subjects — English, math, reading and science. That number has grown by about one percentage point each year since 2011.

Meanwhile, 47 percent of Kansas students who took the test met the benchmarks in at least three of the four subject areas, the standard ACT uses to predict likelihood of overall success in college.

Nationally, 39 percent of all ACT test takers met at least three of the benchmarks, and 26 percent met all four benchmarks.

as part of his first “road map” agenda in the 2010 campaign.

But the report also shows large gaps remain, in Kansas and the nation, between the achievement levels of white and minority students.

Overall, though, state education officials were pleased with the results.

“Our students continue to score ahead of the national average and our goal is to continue to increase the number of children meeting and exceeding established benchmarks,” interim Education Commissioner Brad Neuenswander said.

The benchmarks represent the minimum score a student needs in each of the test’s four subject areas to have a 50 percent

Prosecutors initially alleged that Falcon used a bottle or “a sharp object” to stab Averitt, but during Wednesday’s hearing it was established that the bottle of Paul Masson brandy did not break when Falcon hit Averitt with it, so it could not have been used in the alleged stabbing.

According to the affidavit for Falcon’s arrest, Averitt told police that after Falcon struck her with the bottle and stabbed her, Falcon said, “That’s what you get,” and left.

Averitt said in court

Wednesday that she suffered a one-inch wound from the stabbing, but did not know what Falcon used to stab her. She also said she sustained a large “bump” on her head, nausea and a headache from the bottle’s blow.

Falcon’s attorney, Clinton Lee, sought to have the case against her discharged because the prosecution could not establish what weapon was used in the stabbing. Douglas County District Judge Michael J. Malone ruled that the case should proceed.

Diner Roy Everitt, a 60-year-old Republican from Kansas City, said he supported Brownback.

“I think he is trying to do the right thing,” Everitt said. “I don’t think he is doing that bad of a job.”

But tablemate Charlie Gilbert, a 76-year-old independent voter from Overland Park, complained that the state’s finances are “getting screwed up.”

“I think Christie is shooting himself in the foot by supporting Brownback,” he said.

Christie was set to appear at a fundraising event for Brownback in Mission Hills before heading to Oklahoma City later Wednesday to stump for Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin.

Falcon stabbed Sherry Averitt, 38, of Lawrence, in the arm at Averitt’s home in the 2500 block of Redbud Lane.

Lawrence police spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said Averitt told police that Falcon approached her home early the morning of Aug. 5 and knocked on the door. When Averitt saw Falcon and attempted to close the door, Falcon pushed her way inside and attacked Averitt, including hitting her on the head with a bottle and stabbing her in the arm.

The cost of transmission is one part of the overall cost of electricity that is built into customers’ monthly utility bills.

Like the cost of generating electricity, it is based on a formula that is directly passed on to consumers.

The complaint, filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, specifically challenges the “return on equity,”

the test, and 42 percent of those at Lawrence High School, met all four college readiness benchmarks.

The average composite score in Lawrence held steady compared to last year at 23.7, compared to 21.8 in Kansas and 20.9 nationally. The highest score possible on the ACT exam is 36.

At Free State, the average composite score fell slightly to 24.1 in 2014, while at Lawrence High the average composite score rose to 23.4. Those are both higher than the statewide average of 22 and the national average of 21.

The ACT exam is one of the two main college entrance exams used in the United States, and in Kansas it is taken by far more students than the rival SAT exam.

or ROE, portion of Westar’s rates, which is essentially the profit margin they are allowed to make on their investment. The complaint says Westar is currently charging 11.3 percent, which state regulators allege is too high given today’s low interest rates.

“We appreciate the role the KCC has in balancing the public interest, but in this matter we just have to agree to disagree,” Westar CEO Mark Ruelle said. “We trust the process FERC has to review such concerns.”

Ruelle said that FERC put rules in place about 10 years ago, at the direction of Congress, to attract more investment in the nation’s power grid because development had stagnated.

“We don’t have to go back far in history to see a period where Kansas and the nation were under-investing in this critical high-voltage transmission infrastructure,” Ruelle said. “Our concern is that the KCC’s efforts might cause Kansas to fall behind.”

The KCC said it has asked Westar to voluntarily lower its ROE on transmission to

9.37 percent to reflect the lower cost of capital available, but Westar has refused.

The difference would amount to about $15.8 million in revenue for Westar, but KCC said that amount is expected to double over the next five years because of expected utility growth.

KCC is asking the federal agency either to rule that Westar’s transmission rates are unreasonable and set a date for a hearing and settlement or initiate an alternate proceeding to reduce Westar’s transmission formula rate.

whites has widened to an average of 37 points.

The same is true among Hispanic students, where the average gap has widened from 26 points to 29 points in the past four years. Only 24 percent of Hispanic students in Kansas met three or more of the college readiness benchmarks this year, a rate that is unchanged from 2010.

Large achievement gaps also appeared in each of the four subject areas this year.

On the English exam,

72 percent of all students, and 79 percent of white students, met the college readiness benchmark. But only 49 percent of Hispanics and 39 percent of black students met that mark.

The most difficult of the four subject areas continues to be science, where only 44 percent of all students met the college readiness benchmark. But half of all white students met that benchmark, compared to only 23 percent of Hispanic students and 14 percent of black students.

Racial disparities Details of the ACT report show that the overall upward trend in Kansas is due largely to the fact that the vast majority of students taking the ACT exam are white. Among those students, the number meeting at least three of the four benchmarks has grown three percentage points, from 50 percent in 2010 to 53 percent this year.

But that has not been the case for other racial and ethnic groups in Kansas. In fact, the report shows the gap between white and non-white students has grown in the past four years.

Among black students, for example, only 16 percent met at least three of the benchmarks, an increase of only one percentage point since 2010. That means the gap between blacks and

Moran to give battle against gridlock ‘one more try’

By Elvyn Jones ejones@theworldco.info

Questioned Tuesday at a Baldwin City town hall meeting about how he could accomplish anything positive in the “rigged” Washington, D.C., environment, Sen. Jerry Moran said he would give the system one more chance.

The question came after Moran told about 15 area residents that the U.S. Senate was not functional. He laid the blame on Sen. HarMoran ry Reid and the Senate majority leader’s use of the body’s rules to derail progress on bills that could improve the economic well-being of the citizenry.

When Moran first joined the Senate in 2011, Reid told him nothing would be accomplished until after the 2012 presidential election, Moran said. Reid’s attitude hadn’t change after the election, he said.

It was to end the gridlock that he agreed to spearhead the GOP’s attempt to win the Senate as chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee and not because he loved politics, Moran said.

“I’ll give it one more try,” he said. “I have one more battle in me. I refuse to concede to Harry Reid that the Senate can’t function. If the Republicans get the majority and we can’t function, then I don’t know what the next step is. But at this point in time, I’m an optimist. I have a reason to get up, a reason to live and a reason to do my job. We’ll see what happens.”

The exchange was part

“

I’ll give it one more try. I have one more battle in me. I refuse to concede to Harry Reid that the Senate can’t function. If the Republicans get the majority and we can’t function, then I don’t know what the next step is.”

— U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran of a lively discussion Moran encouraged by having those attending the meeting sit in a book-club like circle. What followed was far from the ideological echo-chamber, with some in attendance questioning the country’s forprofit healthcare system.

For his part, Moran said he hoped that if Republicans did take control of the Senate, President Barack Obama could be persuaded to make changes to the Affordable Care Act. One change he suggested might be possible was the mandate employers must provide health insurance to employees working 30 hours or more a week.

That should be increased to 40 hours a week, he said.

Although Moran said he continued to oppose Obamacare because of its complexity, he was aware of the need for change. But that should have been addressed in an incremental and measured way and not with one massive piece of legislation, he said.

Before taking his seat in the Senate, he put together a 10-point list of what he considered were essential changes, Moran said. Among those was the Obamacare measure that insurance companies end the practice of refusing care for pre-existing conditions.

Moran also advocated reduction of regulations and tort reform, not-

ing rural Kansas doctors have been forced to quit delivering babies because they didn’t have the caseload to pay premiums.

The senator maintained states, not Washington, should regulate the level of supervision and oversight medical professionals like nurse practitioners, physician assistants, physical therapists and chiropractors provide.

In response to a comment, Moran said he did favor term limits, but could make a case pro and con. The absence of term limits did allow smaller states like Kansas to have a greater voice when long-serving senators or representatives were appointed to important chairmanships, he said.

“Many in Kansas see our glory days in the Senate as those of Bob Dole and Nancy Kassebaum, and both were in the Senate a long time,” he said.

He has tried to “inoculate” himself from becoming a Washington, D.C., problem. Meetings like the one in Baldwin City helped with that by keeping him in touch with his constituents, Moran said.

The real danger, no matter how long someone served, was that elected officials would not consider the best interest of those who elected them but the lobbying interests who would provide them with their next job, he said.

Meet the new acts and performers of this year’s Lawrence Busker Festival

By Nadia Imafidon • Twitter: @nadia_imafidon

Some of the poets who will be participating in the Poetry Alley at this year’s Lawrence Busker Festival are pictured, including Matthew J. Asbury, above. The attraction is one of a handful that are new to this year’s festival, which starts Friday.

D

owntown Lawrence is no stranger to a folk singer sharing tales on one corner and a saxophone player entertaining passersby on the next.

But only one weekend of the year does the entire area flood with street entertainers from all over the world for three days of live music hilarity and wild antics.

With 25 confirmed street acts, there are plenty of opportunities to be entertained by the regular acts — sword swallowers, fire eaters, acrobats, magicians and the like.

But there are some new kids on the block, too.

Here are five newcomers to look out for:

Poetry Alley The poets of Lawrence are taking over the breezeway between Seventh and Eighth streets in honor of the written, spoken and, most importantly, shared words.

“Poetry is one of those important arts for people to say what they need to say, to let that be experienced by other people,

Thousand year egg with tofu at Panda and Plum Garden, 1500 W. Sixth St.

THOUSAND YEAR EGG

With its gelatinous dark-sepia colored white and crumbly black yolk, this Chinese treat looks like a 1,000-year-old hardboiled egg. It doesn’t taste THAT old — but it sure doesn’t taste new.

Also called century eggs or millennium eggs, these preserved eggs get their pungent odor and briny flavor from being cured in a salty solution.

(What exactly goes into the solution and how long eggs sit in it varies.)

The traditional process takes a few months and involves wood ash, quicklime and salt. Modern methods use other chemicals to achieve the same result in weeks.

Google if you dare.)

In this appetizer, chopped egg is served atop cold tofu with a drizzle of soy glaze.

Where to get it: Panda and Plum Garden, 1500 W. Sixth St. What you’ll pay: $7.50 Try it with: Rice porridge (congee). If you don’t like tofu, this is one of a few other menu items you can get with a preserved egg.

Also on the menu: The usual Chinese takeout and buffet fare, on the regular menu. The authentic menu — home to the thousand-year egg — includes pork trotters, mustard tubers soup, tripe, kung pao squid and hot pots in which you cook items at your own table, to name a few of the most exotic.

Epstein is host of Voice of Lawrence’s “Talk With Me” radio show, which brings in poets from the community to speak on poetry as a catalyst for healing. She reached out to Busker Fest organizer Richard Renner this year to further her goal of bringing as many people into the written community as possible.

Poetry Alley will feature performances, kids activities, such as paper-making and decorating stones with words, and a community word wall. Jordan Hocker will make an appearance as “The Typewriter Oracle” where she will type poetry on the spot with prompts from passersby.

“Some will be working with people to get poetry created by people who don’t know they are poets,” Epstein says. “It’s giving people confidence in using their own words because it’s so important.”

The Silly People Phil LeConte and Colin Franks’s The Silly People variety show is self-described as “freestyle comedy.” Armed with balloons and juggling clubs, it’s not clear as to what they will do to dazzle the crowd until it happens right before their eyes.

“Your guess is as good as mine,” Renner says about what they’ll be doing. “But you’ll walk away happy you went.”

In their act “The Lords of Latex,” LeConte and Franks have volunteers compete in their own balloon animal creation race with the two experts guiding them along with limited instruction.

They also construct colorful balloon hats and playful laser guns for bystanders to participate in a face off, each person wielding a pretend weapon.

Balloons were the basis of how The Silly People got started more than 20 years ago. Now look forward to yo-yos, circus tricks and modern miming.

USA Break Dancers Renner refuses to play favorites as far as newcomers go, but he cannot contain his excitement for the USA Break Dancers.

“We’ve never had break dancers in the Busker Fest before,” he says.

The artistic coach and founder of the break dancing group Julio “Klown” Santiago is a former award-winning Cirque du Soleil artist who represented Michael

The team of “b-boys” incorporates acrobatics and comedy into the dance routines. Watch them land aerial flips, slide across the floor on their heads, and spin their entire bodies on the ground, in addition to theatrical choreography as funk, disco, hip-hop, old-school rap and classic soul keeps them energized.

Just wait for them to select a crowd member to bust a move. That’s when the real comedy comes into play.

Michael Trautman: King Pong’s Ping Pong Rodeo Master manipulator of ping pong balls, Michael Trautman is a nontraditional clown whose newest show is called King Pong’s Ping Pong Rodeo.

He’s the human pop gun, Renner says.

“He can shoot a dime up in the air and then hit it by spitting a ping pong ball out of his mouth,” Renner says.

Mixing in some magic along the way, Trautman snorts the ping pong ball up his nose and spits it out of his mouth, shoots

it into the air and then juggles a few at a time using solely his mouth.

And then there’s the ping pong ball target practice portion of the act. At one point, he brings in a volunteer for his own rendition of the game William Tell.

Dave Aiken: The Checkerboard Guy Dave Aiken is a comic daredevil best known around the world as The Checkerboard Guy. He’s a busking legend, Renner says.

His three signature moves are the tightrope of death, with Aiken juggling fiery clubs while balancing on a tightrope; the 6-foot unicycle of death, where he rides around on a giraffe unicycle; and the flaming leap of death, with him riding a scooter over a ramp placed next to a participant lying on the ground, with small torches on either side of the ramp.

No matter how risky the trick may be, this daredevil is really out for laughter.

Campus sex University students are the first line of defense against sexual harassment and violence on campus.

T

here’s a lot to learn at college.

Unfortunately, one of those lessons apparently is how to protect yourself from sexual assault.

As students return for the fall semester at Kansas University, Baker University, Haskell Indian Nations University and other colleges and universities across the country, there’s a lot of discussion about the prevalence of sexual assault among students. The statistics are shocking but perhaps not as shocking as some of the attitudes that have been revealed in campus studies.

Much of the focus right now is falling on how colleges handle reports of sexual harassment and assault. That’s important, but not as important as how to prevent those assaults in the first place. Personal responsibility is key — especially as it relates to alcohol consumption, a common denominator in many assault situations — but a cultural change also is part of the equation. That includes changing not only the attitudes of would-be assailants but also the willingness of other students — both men and women — to step in to derail potentially threatening situations.

In a confidential KU survey, one in 10 students reported being a victim of sexual harassment, including sexual violence. Of those, only 2 percent reported the incidents to university officials. The Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access said it had received about 30 reports of sexual violence in the last two years, and most of those involved men raping or sexually assaulting women who were drunk.

The reasons for not reporting are many. Students are afraid they’ll get in trouble for being drunk or they blame themselves for behavior that led up to the incident. They may also fear retaliation or the stigma that may be attached to making a report.

Changing the culture toward sexual harassment and assault also is key. A National Public Radio report earlier this week cited a 2002 survey of about 1,800 men at the University of Massachusetts in Boston. That survey revealed about 120 men, about 6 percent of the total, had raped women they knew, sometimes multiple women. The stories recounted in the study didn’t involve any weapons, just a plan to use alcohol to incapacitate an intended target. The perpetrator sometimes enlisted friends to help implement the plan and often bragged later to friends whose support, or at least silence, reinforced the incident as acceptable or even laudable.

The message here seems to be that, although universities play a role in educating students and discouraging sexual harassment and assault, the real pressure to stop this cycle falls on students themselves. They need to monitor not only their own behavior but the behavior of those around them. They need to keep an eye on their friends and be willing to step in when a situation is heading in the wrong direction. It doesn’t need to be a confrontation; a few words can interrupt a bad scenario.

The beginning of a new university term is filled with many new experiences for students. Those experiences shouldn’t include sexual harassment or assault. We urge students to be careful.

Look out for yourself and your friends.

Don’t be afraid to report incidents, but try hard to keep them from happening in the first place.

Overreach hurts government Washington — In physics, a unified field theory is an attempt to explain with a single hypothesis the behavior of several fields. Its political corollary is the Cupcake Postulate, which explains everything, from Missouri to Iraq, concerning Americans’ comprehensive withdrawal of confidence from government at all levels and all areas of activity.

Washington’s response to the menace of school bake sales illustrates progressivism’s ratchet: The federal government subsidizes school lunches, so it must control the lunches’ contents, which validates regulation of what it calls “competitive foods,” such as vending machine snacks.

Hence the need to close the bake sale loophole, through which sugary cupcakes might sneak: Foods sold at fundraising bake sales must, with some exceptions, conform to federal standards.

What has this to do with police, from Ferguson, Mo., to your hometown, toting marksman rifles, fighting knives, grenade launchers and other combat gear?

Swollen government has a shriveled brain: By printing and borrowing money, government avoids thinking about its proper scope and actual competence. So it smears mine-resistant armored vehicles and other military marvels across 435 congressional districts because it can.

And instead of making immigration policy serve the nation’s values and work-

“

Contempt for government cannot be hermetically sealed; it seeps into everything.” force needs, government, egged on by conservatives, aspires to emulate East Germany along the Rio Grande, spending scores of billions to militarize a border bristling with hardware bought by previous scores of billions. Much of this is justified by America’s longest losing “war,” the one on drugs. Is it, however, necessary for NASA to have its own SWAT team?

A cupcake-policing government will find unending excuses for flexing its muscles as it minutely monitors our behavior in order to improve it, as Debra Harrell, 46, a South Carolina single mother, knows. She was jailed for “unlawful neglect” of her 9-year-old daughter when she left her, with a cellphone, to play in a park while she worked at a nearby McDonald’s.

Resistance to taxation, although normal and healthy, is today also related to the belief that government is

thoroughly sunk in selfdealing, indiscriminate meddling and the lunatic spending that lards police forces with devices designed for conquering Fallujah. People know that no normal person can know one-tenth of 1 percent of what the government is doing.

In Federalist Paper 84, Alexander Hamilton assured readers that although the proposed Constitution would increase the power of a distant federal government, this government would be inhibited by scrutiny: “The citizens who inhabit the country at and near the seat of government will, in all questions that affect the general liberty and prosperity, have the same interest with those who are at a distance, and ... they will stand ready to sound the alarm when necessary.” Not now, when five of the nation’s richest 10 counties, ranked by median household income, are Washington suburbs, parasitic off the federal government. The people who write the regulations of school lunches must live somewhere.

Darin Simak, a first-grader in New Kensington, Pa., who accidentally brought a toy gun to school in his backpack, turned it in to his teacher. School administrators then suspended him because the school has a “zero-tolerance policy.” What children frequently learn at schools is that schools often are run by biological adults incapable of common-sensical judgments.

“We simply cannot al-

low toxic things to be in our schools,” said a spokesman for the Texas school district that confiscated the suntan lotion of a 10-year-old who then became sunburned on a school trip. Students, the spokesman explained, “could ingest it. It’s really just a dangerous situation.”

Not as dangerous as entrusting children to schools run by mindless martinets.

Contempt for government cannot be hermetically sealed; it seeps into everything. Which is why cupcake regulations have foreign policy consequences.

Americans, inundated with evidence that government is becoming dumber and more presumptuous, think it cannot be trusted to decipher foreign problems and apply force intelligently.

The collapse of confidence in government is not primarily because many conspicuous leaders are conspicuously dimwitted, although when Joe Biden refers to “the nation of Africa,” or Harry Reid disparages the Supreme Court’s Hobby Lobby decision as rendered by “five white men” (who included Clarence Thomas), Americans understand that their increasingly ludicrous government lacks adult supervision. What they might not understand is that Reids and Bidens come with government so bereft of restraint and so disoriented by delusions of grandeur that it gives fighting knives to police and grief to purveyors of noncompliant cupcakes.

After Ferguson? Let’s try education What next?

That’s what should concern us now. When the nightly dance of angry protesters, opportunistic criminals, and inept police clashing over the shooting of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown finally ends, what steps should civicminded people take to address the ongoing abuse of African Americans by the criminal injustice system?

Not just in Ferguson, Mo., but in America?

There will be no shortage of good ideas: dashboard cameras, community policing, the hiring of more black cops, the removal of military hardware from police arsenals, sensitivity training. To these, I would add a suggestion that is admittedly less “sexy” than any of those, but which I think has greater potential to make fundamental change in the long term. In a word: education.

Beginning as early as the latter elementary years, schools should offer — no, require — age-appropriate cross-cultural studies that would, in effect, introduce us to us. Meaning not some airy fairy curriculum of achievements and accomplishments designed to impart some vague intra-cultural pride, but a hard-headed, warts and all American history designed

As America races toward a future in which no one race is numerically dominant, it remains largely a nation of cultural illiterates content to interpret various Others through lenses of stereotype and canard.” to impart understanding of who we are, where we’re from and the forces that have made us — inner-city black, Appalachian white, barrio Mexican, whatever.

You might consider this a utopian idea. Maybe it is.

But I’ve never been able to shake a conviction that if you walk the proverbial mile in another man’s shoes, you inoculate yourself against your biases toward him. I believe empathy follows understanding.

Surely we could use

some empathy just now. As America races toward a future in which no one race is numerically dominant, it remains largely a nation of cultural illiterates content to interpret various Others through lenses of stereotype and canard. If this has been a bonanza for certain politicians (“Elect me and I’ll keep you safe from the gays/the Mexicans/ the blacks!”), let us never forget that this ignorance, these unconscious biases for and against, have real world impact.

Michael Brown lying dead in the street is seemingly one image thereof. Here’s another: Last Thursday at 2:30 in the morning, seven teenagers, ages 18 and 19, broke into the home of basketball star Ray Allen. Allen, who played last season for the Miami Heat, was not home, but his wife was. Waking to find strangers in her bedroom, she screamed and they ran.

Police say the teenagers, who had been at a party at a house near Allen’s in the tony South Florida suburb of Coral Gables, didn’t think anybody was home and simply wanted to see what it looked like inside. The kids were questioned and released. Authorities have thus far declined to prose-

cute, saying — incredibly — that under Florida law, there was no crime with which the group could be charged.

It ought not surprise you to learn that these kids were white Hispanics. And I challenge you — I double-dog dare you — to tell me seven black kids who invaded a home in a wealthy neighborhood in the middle of the night would have likewise gotten off with a good talking to. Black kids are strangers to such lavish benefit of the doubt.

And we have been too sanguine for too long about such inequality of treatment in a nation whose birth certificate says, “all men are created equal.” We have only the one country. And we can either tear it apart or figure out a way we can all live in it in justice and thus, in peace.

To do that, we must stop being moral cowards, stop embracing the idea that somehow, our racial and cultural challenges will resolve themselves if we just don’t talk about them. Ignore it and it will go away. Take a good look at the carnage in Ferguson and ask yourself: How’s that working out so far?

new barrage of airstrikes Wednesday against the Islamic State extremist group that beheaded American journalist James Foley and that has seized a swath of territory across Iraq and Syria. President Barack Obama vowed relentless pursuit of the terrorists and the White House revealed that the U.S. had launched a secret rescue mission inside Syria earlier this summer that failed to rescue Foley and other Americans still being held hostage.

In brief but forceful remarks, Obama said the U.S. would “do what we must to protect our people,” but he stopped short of promising to follow the Islamic State in its safe haven within Syria, where officials said Foley

had been killed. Later, though, the administration revealed that several dozen special operations troops had been on the ground in Syria briefly in an effort to rescue the hostages, but did not find them.

And looking forward, the State Department refused to rule out future U.S. military operations in Syria, where Obama has long resisted intervening in a three-year civil war.

Western nations agreed to speed help to combat the militants — most notably Germany, which bucked public opposition by announcing it would arm Iraqi Kurdish fighters to battle the

Washington — The political tilt of the Senate during President Barack Obama’s final two years in office is likely to hinge on a handful of female contenders in tight and costly races.

Donors and fundraisers are catching on.

Five female Senate contenders recently created a joint fundraising committee, Blue Senate 2014, to appeal to donors. Separately, former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg last month wrote a $2 million check to a political committee linked to Emily’s List, the biggest player helping elect women to office.

So far this election cycle, donors have handed over $46 million to a collection of political committees and candidates linked to Emily’s List, which backs female contenders who support abortion rights. The Emily’s List network of committees raised more than most other outside groups, including the GOP-backed American Crossroads and the anti-tax Club for Growth.

According to campaign finance documents filed Tuesday, one of the newest benefactors for Emily’s List was Bloomberg. The bil-

The check put the mayor’s giving to all super PACs this cycle at $11 million, and Bloomberg’s total tally was likely to grow after a Wednesday deadline for many groups to disclose their July fundraising.

111-year-old named world’s oldest man Tokyo — A 111-year-old retired Japanese educator who enjoys poetry has been recognized as the world’s oldest living man.

Sakari Momoi received a certificate from Guinness World Records on Wednesday. He succeeds Alexander Imich of New York, who died in June at the age of 111 years, 164 days.

Momoi was born Feb. 5, 1903, in Fukushima prefecture, where he became a teacher. He moved to the city of Saitama, north of Tokyo, after World War II and was a high school principal there until retirement.

Asked how he felt about the record, Momoi pushed his back upright and said he wants to live longer.

“Say, another two years,” he said.

Momoi said he enjoys reading books, especially Chinese poetry, and sometimes practices calligraphy.

Ferguson, Mo. — A police officer who was part of the effort to keep peace during protests in Ferguson has been suspended for pointing a semi-automatic assault rifle at demonstrators, then cursing and threatening to kill one of them, police said Wednesday.

A protester captured the exchange on video that has been posted to YouTube and several websites. It happened Tuesday night during the latest of several protests that have followed the Aug. 9 shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown by a Ferguson police officer.

On the video, a man is heard saying, “Oh my God! Gun raised!” as the officer approaches.

“My hands are up, bro! My hands are up!” the man said.

The officer walks near the man with his gun pointed and appears to say, “I will (expletive) kill you.”

St. Louis County police spokesman Brian Schellman said the officer is with the police department in St. Ann, another St. Louis County town near Ferguson.

Schellman said a county police sergeant took immediate action, telling the officer to lower the weapon and escorting him from the area.

The officer was suspended

Islamic State. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said he was outraged by the beheading, deeming it evidence of a “caliphate of barbarism.”

Italy’s defense minister said the country hopes to contribute machine guns, ammunition and antitank rockets.

The Islamic State called Foley’s death a revenge killing for U.S. airstrikes against militants in Iraq, and said other hostages would be slain if the attacks continued.

Undeterred, the U.S. conducted 14 additional strikes after a video of the beheading surfaced, bringing to 84 the number of airstrikes since they began on Aug. 8.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Dineen follows family tradition It seems as if a guy who rushed for 431 yards and three touchdowns and averaged 4.5 yards per carry for Kansas University as a senior ought to be asked about his own running prowess at least once every half-century. Ron Oelschlager isn’t holding his breath waiting for that to happen.

Fifty years ago, Dineen he was the guy blocking for the guy everybody wanted to watch. Today, he’s the grandfather of the KU running back in the news, former Free State High star quarterback/ safety Joe Dineen.

I wanted grandpa’s take on Dineen’s potential as a running back, so I asked if he thought the teenager could become as good at the position as he was.

After he stopped laughing, Oelschlager said, “Oh yeah, easy. Can he get in a three-point stance and stick his head into some tackle’s side?”

The numbers say Oelschlager was a much better running back than he paints himself as, but nobody could ever say he was KU’s best at the time. Not even close. He shared the backfield with classmate Gale Sayers.

“If I was ever any good at running back, it was because they were scared to death of Sayers,” Oelschlager said. “If I went on (to professional football), my position was going to be cornerback.”

Like Sayers, Oelschlager played for KU from 196264. In comparing himself to Sayers, he said, “it was kind of like being in a race, having a flat tire and falling two or three laps behind.”

Back then, Oelschlager was a two-way player, much as his grandson was for Free State. Dineen played running back and safety as a junior and was the Kansas Gatorade Player of the Year as a senior, when he doubled as quarterback and safety for the Firebirds.

Recruited to Kansas as a safety with the potential to be switched to linebacker, Dineen was recruited by Rice to play on the other

KANSAS UNIVERSITY LINEBACKER BEN HEENEY, CENTER, IS MOBBED BY FANS following the Jayhawks’ victory over West Virginia on Nov. 16, 2013 at Memorial Stadium.

Heeney, Harwell, Sendish named Jayhawks’ captains

By Matt Tait

ONLINE AT KUSPORTS.COM

mtait@ljworld.com

Flanked by senior teammates Nick Harwell and Cassius Sendish at the Mrkonic Auditorium podium in the Anderson Family Football Complex, Kansas University senior Ben Heeney was introduced Wednesday as the Jayhawks’ first repeat captain since Toben Opurum in 2011-12.

Heeney, a linebacker from Hutchinson, was voted team captain for the second year in a row, while Harwell and Sendish earned the captain title for the first time.

KU coach Charlie Weis said the trio received far and away the most votes of any players on the team when the Jayhawks voted for 2014 captains early Monday morning.

“Not close by a mile,” Weis said. “There really wasn’t much of a competition with everyone else in the eyes of our players (on) who they perceived to be the leaders.”

All three players said being picked as a captain by their teammates was a tremendous honor and Heeney, who has been the face of the program for the past couple of seasons, said he thought adding the title to KU’s newest captains was merely a formality.

“I think that they both have been doing that since they’ve been here, regardless if they had the title of captain or not,” Heeney said of Har-

“Cassius came in, hard worker from day one, same thing with Nick, and neither of them held anything back.”

Harwell’s selection marks the third year in a row that a player who had yet to play a down for the Jayhawks had been voted a captain by his teammates.

Quarterbacks Dayne Crist, in 2012, and Jake Heaps, in 2013, followed the same path.

“I think it’s different with Nick, though,” Heeney said.

“Because (even though he) couldn’t play last year, he was still one of the most vocal guys on our team, one of the biggest leaders on our team.”

Self takes challenge

KANSAS CITY PITCHER DANNY DUFFY delivers against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night in Denver.

Rockies cool off Royals Denver (ap) — Matt McBride hit his first career grand slam and Jorge De La Rosa pitched eight crisp innings, helping the Colorado Rockies cool off the Kansas City Royals with a 5-2 win on Wednesday night.

The loss trims the Royals’ lead to one game over Detroit in the AL Central.

Danny Duffy (8-11) was cruising along with a 2-1 lead until a two-out error by third baseman Christian Colon in the sixth opened the door for a big inning. McBride lined a fastball from Duffy into the left-field bleachers and then zipped around the bases in exhilaration.

It was McBride’s first homer since Sept. 25, 2012, and third of his career. He was called up from Triple-A Colorado Springs the day before.

De La Rosa (13-8) allowed five hits and two run against his former team. He also got the Royals to hit into four double plays, tying a franchise record for most by a single pitcher in a game.

LaTroy Hawkins pitched a perfect ninth for his 19th save in 20 chances.

Duffy was in command most of the night as he allowed five hits and five runs, one earned, in seven innings. After getting two quick outs in the sixth,

Colon fielded a grounder and threw a one-hopper that first baseman Billy Butler couldn’t scoop.

Wilin Rosario singled and Corey Dickerson drew a walk to set the stage for McBride.

It was another hardluck loss for Duffy, who’s the only AL pitcher with a losing record and an ERA under three runs.

This was just the second time De La Rosa faced his old team. He spent two seasons with the Royals before being dealt to Colorado in 2008 for cash considerations.

He was cashing in on his slider and changeup to get out of one jam af-

ter another. De La Rosa’s only mistake was in the second when he grooved a 91-mph fastball that Alex Gordon hit into the right-field bleachers. Erik Kratz brought in another run on a sacrifice fly in the fourth that scored Josh Willingham, who led off the inning with a double.

The Royals finished interleague play with a 15-5 mark.

Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis, volleyball coach Ray Bechard, track coach Stanley Redwine and now men’s basketball coach Bill Self have successfully completed the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.

Self on Wednesday accepted the challenge of the daughters of his friend, Lawrence attorney Evan Ice, plus Weis and many others who have dared him, and had a bucket of ice water dumped on his head by assistants Jerrance Howard and Norm Roberts on Wednesday morning in front of Allen Fieldhouse.

“I’m Bill Self. I accept the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge from my good friend, Evan Ice, and I challenge the 2014-15 Kansas Jayhawk basketball team when they get back in school here this Sunday,” Self said in passing the challenge to his Jayhawk players.

“Give it to me, boys.

Go easy, though,” he said with a laugh prior to his assistants drenching him.

“That was cold,” Self exclaimed after the soaking.

Players on the KU volleyball and football teams and associate AD Jim Marchiony have also completed the challenge and perhaps other coaches/staff members/players at KU whose videos have yet to surface on youtube. com.

The second Team EvanIceDay Walk to defeat ALS will be on Sept.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Eric Fisher refuses to use offseason shoulder surgery as an excuse.

When the left tackle was beaten by a defensive end in a preseason game in Carolina on Sunday, the former No. 1 overall draft pick punched the ground in frustration.

When Fisher was beaten again later in the game in pass protection, he could be seen seething through his facemask.

Afterward, Chiefs coach Andy Reid said the surgery — along with another procedure for a sports hernia — has made Fisher to be tired later in games, and that has led to his rather uneven performance. But while Fisher acknowledged that he’s still working his way back from the injuries, he also pointed out that he is still practicing and intends to keep playing.

“When I have the strength, I feel like I’m using it,” Fisher said, “and obviously after a major surgery your body is going to get fatigued. It was a long rehab. I stayed on top of everything, did everything I could. But right now it is just a rebuilding process.”

It’s a rebuilding process that can’t happen quickly enough.

The Chiefs are banking on a young, inexperienced offensive line to protect quarterback Alex Smith and clear holes for Jamaal Charles, and the results through two preseason games have been rough. Smith has struggled and the first-team offense has yet to score a touchdown. Fisher could hold the key to turning things around.

Depending on when you start the tape, there are times when he looks

positively dominant — the former basketball standout has the athletic ability to get into space, block downfield and help to spring Charles for those long runs. But there are also times when he looks lost, trying in vain to slow down some of the cagey, veteran pass rushers trying to get to the quarterback.

It’s on those plays, Reid said, that the injury seems to be a problem.

“As that arm gets tired, he has a tendency to not shoot it quite as fast as what he would when it’s fresh. I’m not even sure he’s conscious of that,” Reid explained. “You see that when players are coming off of knees.

It’s the same thing. As the game goes on, they don’t play on it quite as well as they do early in the games. So, you work through it.”

he didn’t think he had done anything special.

“It feels good to know that your teammates look up to you,” he said. “They took me in and I’m going to do the best for my team.”

As for Sendish, he said being named a captain would not change anything for him.

“I try to attack every day the same way, whether I was a freshman or a senior or whatever the case may be,” he said.

“I’m just honored even to be in this situation and to be put in this position to represent the team as a whole. It’s a great feeling knowing that you can come into a program and do something like that.”

As Wednesday’s news conference neared an end, all three players were asked to reflect on their upcoming senior seasons and whether the fact that it’s their last goaround had sunk in yet.

Heeney said he thought it was crazy that he was now in the seat that former Jayhawks he looked up to as a freshman and sophomore once occupied.

“I don’t think anyone really prepares for anything like this,” Heeney said of being a two-time KU captain. “I don’t think really anyone ever has it in the plans, but it kind of just works out that way.

If you just work hard and bring your best to the ta-

season-ending injuries to Brandon Bourbon and Taylor Cox, Dineen was stolen from Clint Bowen’s defense to contribute to Reagan’s offense earlier this week. Dineen’s family ties to KU football run much deeper than his grandfather having played there. Reagan, Oelschlager said, was close friends with Dineen’s dad, Joe

Dineen Sr., going back to Reagan’s days as an assistant on Mark Mangino’s staff. Oelschlager’s son, Ron Jr., and Bowen, KU’s defensive coordinator, stood up in each other’s weddings.

“I was really surprised to hear about him moving to running back,” Oelschlager said, but the thought of him switch-

ing to offense crossed Oelschlager’s mind, he said, when Charlie Weis added Reagan to his staff.

Oelschlager’s proud of his grandson, but was father to too many college athletes to grow giddy about it. His son, an all-state quarterback at Lawrence High, played baseball on scholarship at Arizona. Daughters Jill

ble every day, I think your peers see that. Obviously they voted us as captains, so I guess it paid off.”

In addition to Opurum, Heeney joins Todd Reesing (2008-09), Derek Fine (2006-07), James McClinton (2006-07), David Ochoa (2005-06), Travis Watkins (2003-04) and three-time captain Banks Floodman (2003-05) as the only KU players since 2000 to be named team captains multiple times.

what a blow their losses were to the team and the individuals, Heeney, who starred at running back for Hutchinson High, said he would be open to doing more for the team if asked.

“I’d love to play both ways, to bring the old Hutchinson running back days back,” Heeney said with a smile. “That would be awesome. I always thought I was going to play running back in college instead of defense, so if they need me, I’m on call.”

With freshmen Corey Avery and Joe Dineen as well junior-college transfer De’Andre Mann already lined up to replace Bourbon and Cox, using Heeney in any kind of offensive role seems unlikely.

Leadership committee Weis said Wednesday that the voting for captains basically occupied three tiers. One tier included Harwell, Heeney and Sendish, another included senior offensive lineman Pat Lewandowski, senior defensive lineman Keon Stowers and sophomore Montell Cozart and the last included everybody else.

Because of that, Lewandowski, Stowers and Cozart will serve on the Jayhawks’ leadership committee and will work closely with KU’s three captains in helping lead the team.

“Some years, I’ve had as many as nine to 10 guys,” Weis said. “But there weren’t nine or 10 guys that got as much consideration by their teammates.”

Heeney on RBs Heeney was asked on Wednesday about the status of KU’s running back position now that seniors Brandon Bourbon and Taylor Cox have been lost for the season.

Mosby en route?

Junior-college transfer Damani Mosby, one of the two remaining members of the Class of 2014 yet to report to preseason camp, Tweeted some good news late Tuesday night and it sounds like he’s closing in on a trip to Lawrence.

“My teacher FINALLY graded my class,” Mosby wrote on Twitter. “I should be in LK by Friday.”

A 6-foot-3, 228-pound junior from Mesa Community College, Mosby is listed on this year’s roster at the Buck position.

There’s still no word on the status of freshman linebacker Josh Ehambe, who is awaiting word from the NCAA on the eligiblity of all athletes from Prime Prep Academy in Dallas.

and Jodi played for three state-champion volleyball teams and one statechampion basketball team for LHS and played volleyball in college.

Jill played at Iowa, Jodi, Dineen’s mom, at KU. Dineen last played running back as a junior in high school, when he averaged 6.8 yards on 87 carries and ran for 10

touchdowns. His grandfather and the rest of the family will watch with pride when No. 29 gets into games, but they won’t put pressure on him to become the next Gale Sayers.

The next Gale Sayers already played for Oklahoma State and his name was Barry Sanders.

The first Joe Dineen is all anybody expects.

Richards hurt in Angels’ win The Associated Press

American League Angels 8, Red Sox 3 Boston — Josh Hamilton broke out of a slump with two hits and three RBIs, Howie Kendrick drove in two runs, and the Los Angeles Angels beat Boston to increase their AL West lead.

Hamilton was in a 5-for-41 slump with 18 strikeouts but hit two sacrifice flies and then singled in the Angels’ final run in the ninth inning.

The Angels’ seventh win in eight games put them 1 1/2 games ahead of Oakland but it was costly.

Right-handed starter Garrett Richards sustained a patellar injury in his left knee while running to cover first base in the second inning. The extent of the injury wasn’t known.

Richards, 7-2 in his previous 11 starts, left after 1 2/3 innings with a 2-0 deficit. Boston made it 3-0 on David Ortiz’s homer in the third off winning pitcher Cory Rasmus (31).

Grandparent concerned with parents’ drinking Dear Annie: I have a question for parents. Why, when the kids’ soccer, football or baseball games are over, do the parents open up the trunks of their cars and get out the beer? Tailgate parties with alcohol do not belong at children’s events.

When my children played sports, we went out for ice cream. Alcohol was not permitted before or after. What kind of behavior is this teaching our children? Please explain this to me. — Concerned Grandparent Dear Concerned: There is no rational explanation.

These parents are irresponsible and idiotic.

The organizations or schools that sponsor the sports should issue rules about

parental behavior before, during and immediately after the games, and you (or the parents of your grandchildren) should request that it be done.

Dear Annie: My niece recently married her live-in boyfriend. They chose to marry in another country, but didn’t send any announcements or invitations.

That’s fine, because

‘Simpsons’ marathon to highlight all episodes Feeling blue? The rest of August will be decidedly yellow and four-fingered, to boot. The FXX Network will turn every American community into Springfield, airing 25 seasons (552 episodes) of “The Simpsons” (9 a.m., TV-PG) and “The Simpsons Movie” in chronological order, ending midnight Sept. 1.

“The Simpsons” stands alone as the longestrunning television sitcom as well as the most enduring animated feature. The fact that it has managed to do so as an ongoing satire of American society and popular culture is no small miracle.

Unlike many cartoons, “The Simpsons” integrated send-ups with the show’s logic and, more importantly, the personality and emotional complexion of its many characters.

As a sitcom, “The Simpsons” remains rare for two fundamental reasons: The characters watch television and go to church. It never shied away from the intellectual, inviting Stephen Hawking and John Updike to appear, but it could always be counted on to include the silliest slapstick, like the repeated sight of Homer bouncing down mountainsides — always head first.

But if “The Simpsons” is losing its appeal to younger viewers, FXX doesn’t think so. Starting Sept. 2, “The Simpsons” will join the network’s lineup, along with youngerskewing comedies, including “The League,” “Wilfred,” and “Ali G: Rezurection.”

Tonight’s “Conan” (10 p.m., TBS) glances back at the show’s recent highlights. Among the highlights of O’Brien’s career was one of “The Simpsons” episodes he wrote, “Marge vs. the Monorail” (Jan. 14, 1993), often ranked among the series’ very best. Rest in peace, Phil Hartman.

Tonight’s highlights

Face to face with the Headless Horseman on “Sleepy Hollow” (7 p.m., Fox).

Terror comes home on “Bones” (8 p.m., Fox).

A bomb explodes on the twohour season finale of “Rookie Blue” (8 p.m., ABC).

Sherlock needs Mycroft’s help on “Elementary” (9 p.m., CBS).

A Gaza flashback on “The Honorable Woman” (9 p.m., Sundance).

Determined competition on “You’re the Worst” (9:30 p.m., FX).

BIRTHDAYS Former football player Pete Retzlaff is 83. Actor-director Melvin Van Peebles is 82.

Playwright Mart Crowley is 79.

Singer Kenny Rogers is 76. Actor Clarence Williams III is 75.

Rock-and-roll musician James Burton is 75. Singer Harold Reid (The Statler Brothers) is 75.

it was expensive.

When one aunt who could afford the plane fare and hotel asked whether she could attend, she was told “no.” The only guests were the parents. The aunt was deeply hurt. I felt bad for her and angry with the bridal couple for being so rude. When they returned to the states, another family member asked whether there would be a reception and was told there wouldn’t be.

Now they are hinting for presents. My sister-in-law asked me to go in with her to purchase a rather expensive gift, and I refused because of the way they treated the aunt. My family is angry with me.

Frankly, I never want to hear from that

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, Aug. 21, 2014: This year you could alternate between nurturing and critical. If you are single, others want to get to know you. If you are attached, the two of you will enter a special period that brings you very close together.

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 feel caught between doing what you would like to do and doing what needs to be done. Recognize manipulation for what it is. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Your ingenuity will come forward and eliminate a difficult situation. You could be too tired to keep dealing with others who complicate your life. Tonight: Join a friend at a favorite spot.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Stay anchored when dealing with a domestic matter. Your ability to convert a difficult situation into one that is easier could be challenged. Tonight: Defer to someone else’s ideas.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You finally will feel more up to snuff, only to have a loved one become touchy and withdrawn. You might need to let this situation work itself out. Tonight: What would you like to do?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) So much is going on behind the scenes that you could be over-

niece again. Am I wrong? — Ex-Auntie Dear Ex: Yes. The bridal couple can invite whomever they wish, and if they choose a small, immediate-family-only wedding with no stateside reception, that is up to them.

For most folks, if you are not invited to a wedding, you are not obligated to give a gift. But this is family, and yours is trying to be gracious and happy for the newlyweds by giving a gift. If you don’t wish to contribute, that’s up to you.

— Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.

whelmed. Tonight: Do your thing.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A discussion can be put off only for so long. Your creativity will feed naturally into your day. Tonight: A midweek break.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) A loved one could become very demanding regarding a financial concern. Tonight: Be willing to clear out extra work.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might feel as if you are caught between a rock and a hard place. Take a walk to clear your mind.

Tonight: Choose a favorite mental escape.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be overwhelmed by all the choices an associate presents. Take your time, and look at the big picture. Tonight: Make it easy.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You will be in the mood to do less and let others carry more of their weight with a project. Tonight: Keep it light and easy.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’ll see a personal matter differently from how an associate sees it. Tonight: Schedule a message.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll become more resourceful in spite of someone who keeps saying “no.” Keep discussions open until you can bypass this obstacle. Tonight: Act as if there were no tomorrow.

I recently got my daughter’s Disney Princess-themed party supplies at the Dollar Tree. The plates and napkins I bought for $1 there retailed for $4.41 and $4.19 elsewhere. Altogether I saved about $35 on her party supplies.

The Dollar Tree also sells gift bags in a variety of sizes for $1. It’s common to spend $5 or more for these same bags at other stores. If you give only one gift a month, you would save about $50 a year by purchasing your bags from the Dollar Tree.

The Dollar Tree also has miscellaneous items that you can DOLLAR GENERAL STORE find for a steal.

style scout

fashion from the streets of lawrence

By Ed Demasio

Carly Griffith

Treet Alan Ward Age: 24 Hometown: Lawrence Relationship status: Happily in a relationship Occupation: I work at Harbour Lights.

Dream job: To get paid to make beautiful rock-androll music.

What were you doing when scouted? Just got off work Describe your style: It’s probably the same things I have been wearing since sixth or seventh grade: band T-shirts and either jeans or cargo shorts. I am not as fashionable as I appear to be!

Fashion trends you love: I really don’t know about fashion trends but I really like sneakers and shoes. I like simple clothing with bold colors sometimes. I also like low-key matching, like when people match their shirt with their shoes and such.

Fashion trends you hate: High-top shoes with shorts, salmon-colored polo tops, Birkenstocks and the frat boy look; I’m not the biggest fan. Sometimes, I like to look like that because it changes the game when you see someone like me in some salmon-colored shorts, which is kinda weird.

Fashion influences: I’ve been dressing the same since I was a youngin’. I wear clothes that are comfortable to me.

What would you like to see more or less of in Lawrence? More sneaker shops! Less of? I like this town. I guess less snap-back hats.

Tattoos or piercings: My favorite tattoo is of Fire Marshall Bill (Jim Carrey) from “In Living Color.”

Whom do people say you look like? I supposedly have several doppelgangers in Lawrence.

Tell us a secret: I love Kesha Clothing details: New Balance sneakers, $70, Urban Outfitters; shorts, gift; T-shirt, $20.

Age: 21 Hometown: Leawood Time in Lawrence: Quite awhile Relationship status: I have a boyfriend.

Occupation: Sales associate Dream job: My goal is to open my own clothing store.

What were you doing when scouted? On my way home from La Parrilla.

Describe your style: I would say Virginia Wolf meets Stevie Nicks in the Disney villains.

Fashion trends you love: I love how the whole ’70s revival has started within the past two years.

I like oversized stuff and how dramatic jewelry is getting as well as makeup like dark lipstick.

Fashion trends you hate: I hate boring or plain stuff where people don’t express themselves.

Fashion influences: Music! Stevie Nicks is my role mode, pretty much. I also get a lot of inspiration from Disney movies. I love the villains in movies ever since I was little. Cruella de Vil was who got me into fashion.

What would you like to see more or less of in Lawrence? I’d like to see more local boutiques, especially since they are not doing well right now. I hope Lawrence doesn’t just turn into a restaurant town.

Less of? I think Lawrence is pretty good. It has an eclectic mix. I can’t complain about anything.

Tattoos or piercings: My favorite tattoo says “gold dust woman” from the Fleetwood Mac song. I sound like a crazy ’70s kid but that’s what I like!

Whom do people say you look like? I got Stevie Nicks before I liked her! Also, Ellen Page.

Tell us a secret: I’m in love with chef Gordon Ramsay.

Clothing details: Sandals, $14, Target; skirt, $24, Forever 21; top, $4.50, H&M; bag, $34, Target.

throwback 5 ways to incorporate midcentury modern style in your home

Walk into the living room of their midcentury-age home and the natural light pouring in from the large windows of reveals an interior to match the exterior: warm wood furniture, bubble lamps and pops of vibrant oranges and reds and greens in the antique carpet, blanket, pillows and candles that pull together the entire look.

First all the rage in the early â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;50s through â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;60s, midcentury modern interior design has made a comeback, with help from the TV show â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mad Men.â&#x20AC;?

Historically, midcentury modern became popular after World War II, says Harper, a local real estate agent. Harper is also the founder of Lawrence Modern, group dedicated to documenting and preserving examples of modern architecture.

The style encompasses quality-designed sculptural walnut, teak and rosewood pieces â&#x20AC;&#x201D; many of which have found a place in his home â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as well as quirky, kitsch items. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those silly, almost cartoonish items,â&#x20AC;? he adds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The things that serve to make you smile.â&#x20AC;?

THAT’S A WRAP. Scarves can be a great complement to any summer outfit before using them as a functional fall accessory.

A secret summer accessory

S

ummer and scarves are two words that usually aren’t in the same sentence, but they really are a great accent to any outfit.

Not only can you wear a summer scarf now but also when the weather really starts to cool down, you can use them as a fashionable accessory for fall.

A scarf can completely change up a look, which is why we love them so much.

If you’re still not sold on the “summer scarf” accessory then keep reading and see just how stylish they can be.

WHAT TO BUY

When you’re looking for the perfect summer scarf, you’ll want to keep an eye out for super lightweight fabric. We’re not talking about a chunky cable knit construction; you want silky, airy fabric that can

withstand the heat of summer.

A lightweight cotton or polyester fabric is always a good choice. Silk scarves are the best if you want to splurge a little. We would steer clear of black scarves or anything with a darker color because those Emily and Elizabeth don’t do well in the hot sun.

Use a block and tackle for heavy-lifting jobs

I

f you have a heavy load to lift, using a series of pulleys and a rope, otherwise known as a block and tackle, will give you a mechanical advantage roughly equal to the number of pulleys used.

A tackle with one pulley provides little advantage for lifting, but add a second pulley and it will cut the force needed to lift an object in half.

Step 1: Proper block and tackle systems use a fixed block and a movable block. The term “block” refers to the pulley housing, and the pulley wheel is called the “sheave.” Secure the fixed block, or top pulley, on a beam or support strong enough to hold the weight to be lifted.

Step 2: For a two-pulley system or gun tackle, secure one end of the rope to the bottom of the fixed block or to the support the block is attached to.

Step 3: Thread the secured line, or dead line,

fix-it chick

Linda Cottin through the sheave of the movable block, or lower pulley.

Step 4: Bring the rope back up and thread it through the sheave of the fixed block.

Step 5: The remaining rope is referred to as the hauling part. Secure the item to be lifted to the bottom of the movable block and pull the hauling part of the rope to lift the object to its desired destination.

Step 6: A third sheave can be added to the system to create a luff tackle and reduce the amount of force needed to lift a heavier

If you’re wearing a casual strapless dress (maxi or short), throw on a scarf instead of a necklace. You can wrap it all around your neck or tie it at the end to make a long infinity style look.

This brings us to our next point of infinity versus regular scarves. An infinity scarf is one big circle that you can easily wrap twice around your neck.

We like this style; however, it’s limited in how many ways you can style it. If you’re adventurous with your scarf-tying skills, then go for the regular style.

object by two-thirds. To accomplish this, attach a block with two sheaves to the beam or support.

Step 7: Attach the dead end of the rope to the movable block and thread the rope up and over the first sheave in the fixed block.

Step 8: Bring the rope down and thread it through the movable block.

Step 9: Bring the rope back up and thread it through the second sheave in the fixed block.

Step 10: The loose end of the rope is now the hauling part and the lines stretched between the fixed block and the movable block are referred to as fall lines.

Step 11: Secure the object to be lifted to the bottom of the movable block and pull the hauling part of the rope to lift the item to its desired destination.

the nest family adventures

A wild time at the zoo W e were standing near the elephant enclosure, waiting for a talk to start. A zookeeper approached us holding out a glossy, lumpy, black rock, the size of a newborn baby. It was embedded with bits of digested hay.

“Do you know what this is?” she asked the Kid. He looked up at me nervously — we’ve been working on not saying “bathroom words” in public — but I smiled and said, “It’s OK, you can say it today.”

“It’s POOP!” he shouted, thrilling at the joy of the forbidden word. The zookeeper laughed. “That’s right!” And then she whispered an aside to me, “Don’t worry, it’s been shellacked.”

This was one of just many brushes with the wild we had on a recent Saturday morning at the Kansas City Zoo. We met the donors of the gigantic poop, the zoo’s herd of African elephants, just a few minutes later. While another zookeeper narrated, the elephants were asked to do the series of behaviors that are necessary for their caretakers to keep them clean and healthy, such as kneeling and moving in a circle.

In addition to answering my biggest question about the elephants — some only have one tusk because they’ve knocked the other out in rough play — the talk was remarkably well-timed. At only about 10 minutes, it was the perfect

animals than we would have ever been able to cover on foot.

I particularly recommend the boat and sky safari as a quick way to take in the African section of the zoo. The boat will take you to the outer edge of the park where you can see the rhinoceros, crocodiles, lions and many others. Then the sky safari will take you back, flying you over the giraffes and zebras as you go.

The rides, which also include a carousel, do cost extra.

They’re about $2 each, or you can buy a wristband ($5 for the train, tram and carousel; $9 for everything) that gets you unlimited rides all day.

Tougher poison ivy more than just a rumor

C

an poison ivy really get any worse?

If you have ever had a reaction to the plant, just the inscribed memory of endless itching might make you doubtful that anything could rival it. For gardeners and outdoor enthusiasts who regularly encounter poison ivy, however, the rumors that the plant is becoming more abundant are starting to look true.

The news about poison ivy (Toxicodendron taxa) is more than rumor, but if you heard it from a friend, it would be easy to put it in a box with old wives’ tales and snake oils. Research at Duke University in the early 2000s started the discussion when the results of a six-year study on the relationship between poison ivy and elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide were released.

The bottom line from the report’s abstract reads: “Our results indicate that Toxicodendron taxa will become more abundant and more ‘toxic’ in the future, potentially affecting global forest dynamics and human health.”

In the study, when atmospheric carbon dioxide increased in a forest, poison ivy was able to photosynthesize better and use water more efficiently, making it grow faster and larger than it would otherwise. In addition, the urushiol (the oil responsible for skin irritation) produced by these plants was more allergenic than in

The Dreaded Nail Trim N
