Menards files plans to build store next to Home Depot

Jayhawks prevail in slugfest with Cowboys

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

The intersection of 31st and Iowa streets may end up becoming a handyman’s haven.

Menards has filed plans at Lawrence City Hall to build a large home improvement center just east of the Home Depot store near 31st and Iowa streets.

Plans call for the store to be built on a portion of the former Gaslight Mobile Home Village, which has been vacated in recent months.

Menards officials weren’t offering any comment on when the store may open, or why it is pursing a Lawrence project after announcing last year that it was placing its Kansas City metro area expansion plans on hold.

“We are working on plans to build in Lawrence some day, but nothing has been finalized,” Menards spokesman Jeff Abbot said.

KANSAS HEAD COACH BILL SELF looks for a foul that wasn’t called against Oklahoma State on a last-second drive

by KU guard Travis Releford that sent the game into double overtime on Wednesday at Gallagher-Iba Arena in Stillwater, Okla. At the end of that second overtime, KU came out on top, 68-67.

Tharpe nails winning shot in 68-67 double OT thriller

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

STILLWATER, OKLA. — The smallest scholarship player on the Kansas University basketball roster made the biggest shot of his team’s season, deep into a wild Wednesday night inside packed and jacked Gallagher-Iba Arena, lifting the Jayhawks to a 68-67, doubleovertime victory against

Oklahoma State.

Naadir Tharpe, a 5-foot11 sophomore guard from Worcester, Mass., knew the shot clock was racing toward expiration and had no other option but to go for it. He dribbled his way into the lane and hit a running one-hander with 18 seconds remaining in the second overtime.

Oklahoma State failed to score at the other end and

both overtimes by Kansas, which made six free throws in the first overtime and three in the second.

Tharpe had made just 1 of 10 field goal attempts before hitting the game-winner.

“Phil played great defense on him; dude just made a great shot,” Oklahoma State star Marcus Smart said of Tharpe’s game-winner.

More than an hour before the blast, a subcontractor working for a cable company hit a gas line with underground boring equipment. Then something inside the restaurant ignited the fuel, authorities said.

Surveillance video from a nearby travel agency shows a fireball erupting from the restaurantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roof, showering the street with debris and throwing up a cloud of dust and smoke.

The blast could be felt for a mile, and it shattered glass in neighboring buildings.

Fifteen people were injured. Six were still hospitalized Wednesday, James said.

People who live and work in the area reported smelling gas for some time before the accident.

BRIEFLY The drought that continues to grip parts of Kansas, and the impact itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s having on farming and local communities, will be the subject of a symposium this week at Kansas University. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Beyond the Long Hot Summer: The Future of Water in Kansasâ&#x20AC;? is scheduled for 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Friday in the Commons at Spooner Hall on the KU campus.

Rex Buchanan, interim director of Kansas Geological Survey, will be among presenters at the symposium.

He recently completed an annual survey of wells in the Ogallala Aquifer region of western Kansas and reported that water tables in the area have declined dramatically in the last two years, largely because the drought is causing farmers to pump more water from underground for irrigation.

The event is free and open to the public.

Senate Vice President Jeff King, R-Independence, told the Senate Commerce Committee that the proposals will help those receiving assistance payments or unemployment benefits to receive the treatment they need and find employment.

The requirement would apply to applicants for and participants in the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families program. Prospective employers would be required to tell the state when a job seeker whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s receiving unemployment benefits fails a company drug test or refuses to take one. That would allow the state to cut off the benefits.

How Kansas University will deal with the changing ways students will learn in coming years, how much KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s West Campus will or wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expand, how KU and Lawrence can work together for sustainability â&#x20AC;&#x201D; these were among the questions on the minds of visitors at two forums Wednesday concerning KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new

master plan.

Others, meanwhile, focused on topics somewhat less broad: a request for more hills for sledding on campus, or a complaint that Room 412 in Lindley Hall is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;bad lecture hall.â&#x20AC;?

Creating a KU master plan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a map for how the physical campus will serve the university and Lawrence over the coming

years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; includes a great many factors: classrooms, services for students, parking, traffic, water runoff and more. Visitors trickled in at forums on and off campus to share their thoughts Wednesday with officials from KU and contractors helping to form a master plan for the Lawrence and

LAWRENCE POLICE OFFICERS REMOVE ITEMS from a trash container in an alley in the 700 block between Illinois and Mississippi streets after responding to a reported bank robbery at Midwest Regional Credit Union, 1015 W. Sixth St., about 12:15 p.m.

Wednesday. According to scanner traffic, police were seeking a white male who was last seen on a bicycle, wearing a ski mask and a blue KU jacket and carrying a backpack. An employee at the credit union told police that she saw a dye pack explode in the bag of money as the robber carried it away.

Second bank robbery in a week investigated

By Ian Cummings icummings@ljworld.com

Lawrence police responded to a bank robbery early Wednesday afternoon at Midwest Regional Credit Union, 1015 W. Sixth St. Police are seeking a white male, about 5-foot-7, who was last seen leaving the bank south on Maine Street on a bicycle, wearing a blue KU jacket and carrying a backpack, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman.

Bank employees activated an alarm as soon as the man entered the bank, McKinley said, be-

cause the man was wearing a ski mask and dark glasses.

The man demanded money and bank employees complied, filling the backpack with bills. But the employees also placed an exploding dye pack in the bag, and a witness reported to police that the dye pack burst as the man was leaving the bank.

McKinley said the robberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backpack, and possibly his clothing, are likely to be stained with orange or red ink.

About 45 minutes after the 12:15 p.m. robbery, police officers focused on a trash can in an alley in the 700 block of Illinois

Street, removing some bags and dusting the lid for fingerprints. Police did not say what they found.

It is not known whether a weapon was used in the robbery, or whether Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s incident was related to last Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s robbery of Lawrence Bank, 100 E. Ninth St. McKinley said police are continuing to investigate that robbery as well.

Anyone with information about either robbery is asked to call 843-TIPS (8477).

Reese Hays is betting he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have many problems navigating the sometimes choppy waters that a city commissioner sometimes encounters at Lawrence City Hall.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had practice in a slightly different governmental arena: the government of Iraq.

Hays, one of 11 candidates seeking a seat on the Lawrence City Commission, worked as a special counsel to the Iraqi justice system while serving as a member of the U.S. Air Forceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s corps of JAG attorneys. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You really have to focus on how to get things accomplished for the betterment of all,â&#x20AC;? Hays said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can tell you that it really helped me fine-tune my diplomacy.â&#x20AC;?

During the one-year assignment, Hays helped the Iraqis learn everything from the basics of fingerprint technology to proper ways to gather and question witnesses. Many times, Haysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; work involved helping the Iraqi government make cases against Iraqi citizens accused of setting roadside bombs and making other attacks against coalition forces.

LAWRENCE

.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an excellent time to kind of reconstruct the next 10 years.â&#x20AC;?

Edwards campuses, the first since 1997 and fifth since 1904.

Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s events were the first of several open forums planned at different points of the year-long planning process, which is scheduled to conclude in November. KU has a $1.17 million contract with the Norfolk, Va.-based planning firm Hanbury Evans Wright Vlattas and Co., which specializes in higher-education work, to help develop the plan.

Steve Gift, an architect for HEWV overseeing the KU master plan process, said he and his staff were still in the process of gathering information and ideas before forging ahead with planning. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be making use of campus and community focus groups as well as open forums like Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the early going, we have a lot to learn,â&#x20AC;? Gift said.

Gift said two major themes in the planning process had become clear â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the promise of further expansion on KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s West Campus, and the need for KU to prepare for shifting winds in education when it comes to technology. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an excellent time to kind of reconstruct the next 10 years,â&#x20AC;? Gift said.

to invite input from people around Lawrence.

Earlier in the day, students, faculty and others shared their ideas with planners for things to fix or improve during a forum at the Kansas Union.

Among their suggestions, each of them added to lists displayed on poster-sized sheets of paper: more work space for graduate students, special paint for classroom walls that allows them to be used like dry-erase boards, more electrical outlets for classrooms and more hills for sledding on campus. And, of course, many wishes for more parking.

KU senior Sam Silverglade stopped by the campus forum to share his suggestions that KU provide more space for weightlifting in its student recreation center and add more bus stops between where he lives, just north of Memorial Stadium, and the heart of the campus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love the KU campus, and I am a senior this year, and I want it to be the best it can be for students,â&#x20AC;? Silverglade said.

Wish lists Lawrence architect Mike Myers came to the evening forum, at the Lawrence Visitor Center in North Lawrence, because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concerned about the West Campus territory, which stretches to Kasold Drive and contains a good deal of untouched land. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pristine habitat,â&#x20AC;?

Myers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to know that somebodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paying attention and cares about it.â&#x20AC;?

A slow stream of residents trickled into the evening forum, designed

Space for learning Yvonne Thibodeau, a Denver-based planner specializing in college campuses whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s serving as a subcontractor, collected input on how KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campus can help students learn in the future.

She asked students who came by whether they preferred learning in big lecture halls or smaller discussion groups.

(Some freshmen said they preferred the anonymity of a lecture hall, but when Thibodeau pressed them, they admitted they

yer was perhaps his calling after he noticed that he was spending large amounts of time studying law books to find out more about the cases he had been involved in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I got to the point that I wanted to be the guy who people came to for advice,â&#x20AC;? Hays said.

Hays said his experience working in the public sector should serve the commission well. He said during his time in the Air Force he often served as an adviser for the Wing Commander, a position he said is kind of an Air Force baseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s equivalent of a mayor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you have had the experience of being involved in decisions at the point where the rubber meets the road, I think it helps you recognize when you might be creating some unintended consequences,â&#x20AC;? Hays said.

Law and order Hays, 36, is the chief litigation counsel for the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts. He essentially serves as a prosecutor in cases involving complaints that medical professionals have violated state licensing standards.

But for years, Hays played a different role in the legal system. After a short time in college, Hays left to become a trooper for the Kansas Highway Patrol.

He ended up being part of the crew that patrolled the counties surrounding Kansas City, handling everything from traffic fatalities to drug cases. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I took away from that experience that if you work hard, you can actually do some good,â&#x20AC;? Hays said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can help others. A lot of times when you are interacting with someone as a police officer, it is at one of their worst moments. At that point, though, you can really make an impact on someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life, if you just take time to care.â&#x20AC;?

Eventually, though, Hays realized being a law-

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Steve Gift, an architect overseeing the KU master plan process

Issues Hays said figuring out ways to address the needs of the Police Department should be a high priority of the next City Commission.

He said the department has a shortage of facility space and also is facing personnel and equipment needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like there are some critical items that

learned well in discussions.)

As higher-education trends toward â&#x20AC;&#x153;flippedâ&#x20AC;? classes that use online lectures and small-group discussions in person, KU will need to plan for how to use its classrooms to provide for that, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the physical space to tell you how you want to teach and how you want to learn,â&#x20AC;? Thibodeau said.

For instance, she noted, KU chose to fill Budig Hall, formerly Hoch Auditorium, with three large lecture halls while rebuilding after a fire in the 1990s. Now it must make use of those halls for years to come.

Jane Huesemann, a Lawrence architect consulting on the master plan, displayed some statistics on how KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many classrooms are used. About 99 percent of KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classrooms (which account for about 5 percent of the space on the Lawrence campus) are used during the middle of the day on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

But on Fridays during some of the same times, only about two-thirds are used. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It sort of tells us that we could use the campus capacity differently,â&#x20AC;?

Huesemann said.

Anyone who couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it to Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forums but wants to offer input on KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s master planning process can email the universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office of Design and Construction Management at kudcm@ku.edu. More information on the master plan is available online from KU, at dcm.ku.edu/ campus-master-plan.

Tracy Horstman, KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assistant vice provost for capital planning and space management, said any and all ideas are welcome at this early point in the process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As they say, nowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the time to dream big,â&#x20AC;? Horstman said. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas University reporter Matt Erickson can be reached at 832-6388.

are not just nice-to-have items but are necessities to ensure citizens are protected in a proper way and to ensure the police force is operating at an excellent level,â&#x20AC;?

Hays said.

On other issues:

Hays said he wants city budgets to focus on funding â&#x20AC;&#x153;basic services,â&#x20AC;? and forecasting major expenditures that will be needed in the future.

He has said he supports a citywide election on the proposed $25 million city recreation center. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the public wants that facility and they want to go use it, that will show itself on the day that people go to vote on it,â&#x20AC;? Hays said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we have voters buying into the project, it will make it that much better.â&#x20AC;?

A Feb. 26 primary will narrow the field of 11 city commission candidates down to six.

The general election â&#x20AC;&#x201D; where the top three vote winners will take a seat on the commission â&#x20AC;&#x201D; will be April 2.

LMH undecided on wellness center at Rock Chalk Park

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Leaders with Lawrence Memorial Hospital said it probably will be this summer before the hospital decides whether it wants to open a wellness center in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed $25 million recreation center. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is still very much a work in progress for us,â&#x20AC;?

LMH CEO Gene Meyer said Wednesday.

The hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of trustees briefly considered the project at their meeting on Wednesday but did not have a serious discussion on whether to move forward with occupying about 7,000 square feet of space in the center, which is proposed for a site at the northeast corner of Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway.

Karen Shumate, chief operating officer for LMH, said the plan now is for the hospital to convene a group of physicians and medical providers to get more feedback on what could be included in a wellness center.

Last September, board members were briefed on a concept for a wellness center that would include:

Physical, occupational and speech therapy services.

Diet and exercise classes.

One-on-one wellness coaching.

Sports performance enhancement programs.

Various screenings.

The concept included a particular focus on the elderly and pediatric services. Shumate said the concept may still be applicable, but the hospital wants to hear more from providers.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to be careful that we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t duplicate what exists in Lawrence,â&#x20AC;?

Meyer said.

The hospital also has to consider whether the center would produce any revenue. The changing Medicare environment has included changes to reimbursement policies for therapy services. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how our board will commit to this,â&#x20AC;? Meyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There has been good discussion about it both ways. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not quite there yet.â&#x20AC;?

City officials have said they do not expect the hospital to make a decision on the wellness center prior to the city accepting bids on the 181,000-square-foot recreation center. Those bids could be accepted in late April.

In other news from Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s LMH board meeting:

Board members were told the hospital soon will begin offering â&#x20AC;&#x153;bladelessâ&#x20AC;? cataract surgery. A new piece of equipment will allow area opthamologists to use a laser device to remove cataracts. Currently, such laser procedures arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done in Lawrence, said Janice Early, the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director of community relations. Procedures are expected to begin by early March.

The hospital has begun performing surgeries with its new $2.1 million robotic surgery system.

The hospital began using the new da Vinci surgery system two weeks ago for procedures such as hysterectomies, prostate and kidney surgeries, and certain types of urological procedures.

The system uses small mechanical arms

equipped with surgical tools. The arms can be inserted into small incisions just a few centimeters long. A surgeon controls the arms remotely. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The surgeon sits at a video console in the operating room and really doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touch the patient,â&#x20AC;?

Early said.

The system is designed to reduce the recovery time and lessen the amount of pain associated with surgical wounds.

Currently, there are three surgeons in Lawrence trained on the system, and three more have expressed an interest in receiving training.

Board members unanimously approved a new charity care policy for the hospital. The board was briefed on the policy at last monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting.

The new policy calls for anybody who applies for charity care to pay minimum fees for service at the hospital. They include $250 for an inpatient hospital stay, $50 for an emergency room visit and $20 for an outpatient visit.

The policy does raise the amount of money an individual or household can make and still qualify for charity care. The old policy required an individual or household to be at or below the federal poverty level â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which was about $23,000 for a family of four in 2012 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to qualify for the full benefits of charity care. The new policy allows people at 150 percent of the federal poverty level â&#x20AC;&#x201D; about $34,500 for a family of four â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to qualify. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362.

County OKs development pact

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Douglas County commissioners on Wednesday approved a contract with the city of Lawrence that provides financing for streets, water lines and sewers at a new industrial park being planned in eastern Lawrence.

The agreement, however, is contingent on the Lawrence City Commission acting next month to form whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called a benefit district, where the cost of the improvements would be divided among the lots in the development and levied as special assessments.

City commissioners had been scheduled to hold a public hearing on the benefit district plan Tuesday night, but that hearing was postponed until March 5 due to a technical error in the public notice, according to Chuck Soules, director of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Public Works Department.

The East Hills Business Park is being planned at the site of the former â&#x20AC;&#x201D; City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be Farmland Industries reached at 832-6362. Follow him at chemical plant on Kansas Twitter.com/clawhorn_ljw. Highway 10. All but two

of the lots are now owned by either the city or the county. One small parcel is owned by Westar Energy; another is owned by a holding company affiliated with AT&T and is the site of a communications tower.

The agreement allows the county to defer paying its assessments until the lots are sold or developed, and even then the assessments may be waived as a condition of the sale if both the city and county agree.

The total cost of the infrastructure improvements is estimated at $9.58 million.

In other business, the commission:

Approved merit pay

increases of 1.5 percent for the county administrator and elected county officials other than county commissioners. The amount is consistent with merit increases awarded earlier to other county employees.

Approved a conditional use permit for a visitor center complex at the Baker Wetlands, 1365 North 1250 Road.

Approved technical revisions to the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s road classification map so that county roads are classified in a way that is consistent with their actual or anticipated future use. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 832-7259.

has failed its constitutional duty to adequately fund schools, and needs to allocate a minimum of $440 million to annual school funding. The state has appealed the decision to the Kansas Supreme Court.

In the wake of a Supreme Court decision in a similar school finance lawsuit in 2005, the Legislature adopted a three-year funding plan but then started to cut those dollars when the economy soured.

State Sen. Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City, said Wednesday that as revenue started to rebound, the state should have restored the cuts, but instead Brownback pushed for tax cuts last year.

“We welched on the deal,” Holland said. “It’s a self-inflicted crisis.”

But the sponsor of the amendment, state Sen. Jeff King, R-Independence, said elected representatives, rather than appointed judges, should be in charge of school finance.

“This gives the decision to the people of the state as to who they want to make the final decision over one of the most important things we do here in the Capitol,” King said.

Currently, the Kansas Constitution states that “The Legislature shall make suitable provision for the educational interests of the state.”

Senate Concurrent Resolution 1608 would add that financing the educational interests of the state “is exclusively a legislator power … and as such shall be established solely by the Legislature.”

Few advance ballots ]b cbY d`UWY" cast ahead of primary

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Douglas County election officials are reporting light turnout in advance balloting ahead of next week’s primary election for Lawrence city commission seats.

On Tuesday, Deputy County Clerk Benjamin Lampe said only 251 advance ballots had been cast so far: 105 in person and 146 by mail or email. He said the county had sent out 479 ballots to voters who had requested them.

There are 62,648 registered voters in the city of Lawrence, and 79,031 in all of Douglas County, Lampe said.

Voters can cast ballots in person at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St., or they can contact the county clerk’s office to request a ballot be mailed to their home. Friday is the last day the county can mail advance ballots.

Polling at the courthouse is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Friday; from 9

BRIEFLY Dole establishes FHSU scholarship HAYS (AP) — Former U.S. Senator Bob Dole has created a scholarship fund at Fort Hays State University to honor his two sisters.

Dole says the fund with the university’s foundation will be named for Norma Jean Dole Steele and Gloria Dole Nelson, both of whom died last year. Dole says his sisters always encouraged their children to seek the best education possible.

KAKE-TV reported Wednesday that all undergraduate students from Russell County or who have graduated from Russell High School are eligible for the $1,000 annual scholarships, if they have a minimum grade point average of 2.5.

a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday; and from 8 a.m. to noon on Monday. Lampe said state law requires advance voting locations to close at noon on the day before Election Day. Regular polls in the city of Lawrence will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, Feb. 26.

The Lawrence city commission race is the only race in Douglas County that drew enough candidates to warrant a primary. There are three commission seats up for election this year, all of which are elected at-large.

The ballot includes 11 candidates. Voters can mark their ballots for three of those candidates. The top six will advance to the April 2 general election.

The April general election also will feature races for school board seats, and the Lawrence school district’s proposed $92.5 million bond issue.

Boyfriend wonders whether to break up before college

Dear Annie: I am a senior in high school. I have been dating “Brianna” for 10 months. She graduated last year and attended a community college, but really had no ambition or motivation to be there.

We spent last summer together, and I honestly fell head over heels in love with her.

Here’s the problem.

I have been accepted to many colleges out of town. It has always been my dream to go away to school. I told Brianna it wouldn’t be fair to either of us to stay together while I am away, but I want us to be together as much as possible until then. Ever since I mentioned this to Brianna, however, things haven’t been the same. We’ve been arguing a lot.

Brianna doesn’t get along well with her family and tells me I’m all she has. She says when I go away to school, I’ll be leaving her just like

everybody else. Now I feel nothing but guilt when I think about college. I want us to enjoy our time together as much as possible. I want Brianna to be my date for my senior prom, but I don’t want her to think I’m simply using her. It’s not true. She is the only person I want by my side.

Annie, do you think it’s fair that we’re staying together now even though we’re most likely breaking up when I leave for college? I want the full college experience, and I know a long-distance

Shaquille’s comedy no slam dunk

“Upload With Shaquille O’Neal” (9:30 p.m., Tru TV) becomes the latest series to showcase video clips from the Internet. Along the way, it shows that the former NBA star is about as good at being funny as a comedian might be at playing basketball.

The notion of the basketball/ comedy tradeoff is not entirely novel. In their own way, the Harlem Globetrotters have always combined slapstick stunts with roundball prowess. During the early days of “Saturday Night Live,” singer Paul Simon appeared as a semiregular, and one of his better sketches featured the diminutive Simon playing one-on-one against NBA player (and former ABA star and Globetrotter) Connie Hawkins. It was terrible basketball, but memorable comedy.

O’Neal’s series comes closer to “America’s Funniest Home Videos” than “Saturday Night Live.”

He and his panel of experts and friends, including Gary Owen and Godfrey, laugh — all the time — at their own jokes, pranks and stunts. Still, if you’re looking for diverting Internet clips and miss Shaquille O’Neal on the basketball court, there are worse ways to pass the time.

“Glory Hounds” (7 p.m., Animal Planet) is such a natural idea for cable TV, I’m shocked we haven’t seen it before. “Hounds” celebrates the hundreds of dogs that comfort, accompany and assist soldiers on combat missions in Afghanistan.

Tonight’s other highlights:

A trip to a nerd convention on “Community” (7 p.m., NBC).

The guys reach the semifinals on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox).

Don’t fear the flower

AFRICAN VIOLETS USED TO BE ON JENNIFER SMITH’S LIST OF FLOWERS ONLY THE BEST GARDENERS CAN GROW, but after receiving some of her own and doing some research, she found that her fears were unfounded

African violets not as difficult to care for as you may think

A

frican violets used to be on my list of things only the best gardeners grew — right next to orchids, hybrid tea roses and bonsai. A mention of any of these plants evoked images of men and women with gardening aprons and flower snips laboring over their plants for hours on end. When a Master Gardener handed me two African violet starts a few years ago (left over from a class she had taught), I cringed.

I dreaded the day I would have to tell her my thumb was a lighter shade of green and these elitist plants had perished under my care.

When I looked up African violet care for the first time, I was surprised to see they were often described as being easy to grow and good for beginners. They also bloom almost nonstop in the right conditions, providing yearlong enjoyment, and many varieties are small enough to fit on a windowsill. My fears

Garden Calendar

Jennifer Smith smithjen@ksu.edu

were indeed unfounded.

To find the right location in your home or office, look for a place that gets six to eight hours of light from the outside. A window or door that faces north or east may be best as a south window can get too hot. Be ready to move the plants to a different location if they are getting too much or too little light. With too much light, they will yellow and scorch.

With too little light, they will stretch toward the light

source and the plants are unlikely to flower.

Even in the right light, African violets may lean a little as they respond to the light source. My violets are growing in a north-facing window, and I turn them every five to seven days or when I notice them listing.

Fluorescent lights will also make African violets happy.

For best results, suspend the light(s) 12 to 15 inches above the tops of the plants. Two 40-watt fluorescent tubes are recommended. Use a timer to keep the lights on for 14 to 16 hours per day.

Watering is the other big factor in African violet care.

Like any plant, water needs depend on air temperature, light, soil type, humidity, etc.

Some experts say African violets should be watered from the bottom, and others argue to water from the top as is generally recommended.

Either way, keep these “rules” in mind: 1. Use room temper-

ature water. (I fill the watering can and let it sit overnight before using the water in it.)

2. Only water when the top inch of soil is dry. Stick your finger in the soil to check or use a moisture indicator — the surface can be deceiving.

3. Always use containers with drainage holes.

If you choose to water the plants from the bottom (with a saucer or a wick), you will still want to flush the pot occasionally from the top.

This will help leach salts that accumulate in the soil from water and fertilizer.

Humidity is often mentioned in African violet care guides, but research shows that setting out trays of water, suspending the plants over water, and misting are unlikely to make a difference in plant growth. In the average home or office, violets will tolerate whatever humidity they are offered. Humidifiers might be worth the investment to the violet fanatic.

For temperature, African violets prefer 65- to 70-degree nights and 70- to 90-degree days. Temperatures below 60 can damage plants, so be careful in drafty locations and with dropping nighttime temperatures.

Most commercially available potting mixes will work fine for African violets.

Potting mixes are preferred for houseplants over garden soil because they are blended to provide good drainage in containers.

Avoid fertilizing in the winter. From spring to fall, when the plant is actively growing, use a houseplant fertilizer according to label instructions.

You will know when you get your violet in just the right spot — it will thank you with its cheerful blossoms.

George Washington, 19th century product pitchman

By Terry Kovel

It would not be in good taste or even legal to use a picture of the president of the United States as part of a product’s package design or advertisement.

Most states have laws that prohibit the unapproved use of a person’s name or likeness for “commercial benefit.”

This was not a concern when George Washington (1732-1799) was president (1789-1797).

He was admired by the public, but there were no photographs of him and few portraits. Product packaging back then was usually a plain black and white folded paper packet.

In the 19th century, celebrations of Washington’s Feb. 22 birthday and the July 4 birthday of the United States made Wash-

PRESIDENT GEORGE WASHINGTON’S FACE is pictured with a flag on the lid of this 3-inch-by-4-inch 1890s tobacco tin. It sold for $303 at a William Morford auction in Cazenovia, N.Y. ington a symbol of the country.

A surprising number of things collected today feature Washington’s portrait. At least three tobacco companies used “Washington” as a brand

name one for pipe tobacco, one for plug tobacco and one for chewing tobacco.

Each had a picture of Washington on the package, often beside a flag and other patriotic sym-

bols. Collectors of Washington memorabilia can also find a brand of coffee, a soup company’s ads, dishes, calendars and many other products that feature Washington’s image. No doubt he would be upset to know he once advertised Acapulco Gold cigarette papers.

Other Washington collectibles found today include old posters and signs advertising products like insurance, 1876 U.S. Centennial furniture with wooden inlay picturing Washington, and paper needle cases from 1930s dime stores.

Even today Washington is a spokesman for products. In the past year, he has promoted cars, beer, an appliance store and a state lottery. A colorful tobacco tin for Washington Mixture tobacco, picturing

Washington and a flag, auctioned for $303 at a 2012 William Morford auction in upstate New York. Almost all George Washington-related collectibles and antiques are selling well.

Q:

My mother said she and my father had the first radio in our area, and people came from all over to listen to it. She thought it was about 1919 or 1920.

My dad built the radio, then bought a cabinet to put it in. The cabinet has a label that says “American Beauty Radio Cabinets & Console Speakers, Mfg.

by Pierson Co., Rockford, Ill.” The radio was disposed of long ago, but we still have the cabinet. It has all its original knobs and is in good condition.

I’d like to know when it was built and what it’s worth.

A:

The first commercial radio broadcast was made when KDKA of Pittsburgh broadcast the results of the presidential race between Warren Harding and James Cox on Nov. 2, 1920. Radio receivers were not widely available at the time. In the 1920s, many people made their own radios by assembling the necessary components and attaching them to a board. By the late 1920s, radios were being manufactured for sale, and furniture companies began making cabinets to put them in.

Pierson Furniture Co. was founded in 1927. It became Pierson Radio Co. in 1930 and began making radio cabinets. In 1940 the company switched from manufacturing to retail, and its name was changed to Pierson Factory Showrooms. Your empty cabinet would sell as used furniture and might bring a few hundred dollars.

Botched effort Poor handling by both public and private entities have cast a pall on the Rock Chalk Park project.

T

he ongoing debate about the proposed Rock Chalk Park project, along with the city recreation center, has not presented a picture of a wellorganized, well-structured and well-explained multimillion-dollar project.

Building and financing this project may be a super idea with a super design, but the manner in which it has been presented to the public leaves many damaging, questionable and suspicious marks on the developer, the city, Kansas Athletics and the Kansas University Endowment Association.

Those who teach at the university’s nationally rated department of public administration should use the Rock Chalk Park and the city recreation center as an example of how to mess up, cloud and weaken a major collaborative project involving city, private, not-for-profit and state university entities. The public has been left with the feeling their government officials have done a sloppy, careless job in carrying out their responsibilities. Also, it appears these city officials were determined to push through the project regardless of serious and troubling details.

Why didn’t all those involved in the project make an extra effort to detail every facet of the complicated deal rather than to delay, conceal and disclose details only when asked to explain this or that about various parts of the very complicated project?

In a way, it is understandable that KU Athletics, the city and the builder might be somewhat reluctant, or embarrassed, to disclose all the details. However, it has been a major surprise to see the Endowment Association not be more forthcoming as the deal details unravel.

KUEA enjoys a proud record. It is held in the highest regard and is looked upon as a national leader in the field of educational fundraising. Although it is a totally separate entity, it is one of the university’s finest assets. It has a record of being a super clean operation. And yet, KUEA officials OK’d a deal that limited the building of the project to a single contractor with no competitive bid process allowed. And KUEA officials have acknowledged they did not, and still do not, know all the details of various agreements. And there are questions relative to conflicts of interest among some KUEA officials.

This does not reflect well on a financial institution that must have, and must operate with, a squeaky clean reputation.

There are many good people involved in the recreation complex deal, individuals who have done much good for the city, the university and the state. Nevertheless, it is disappointing to watch important details emerge week after week (only when some of the players have been asked to explain their actions), details that should have been made crystal clear at the outset. It is understandable that many observers are puzzled, disappointed and suspicious of how the project has been manipulated and presented to the public.

Again, city leaders, Kansas Athletics, the Endowment Association and officials of the construction company all have been tarnished in one way or another by the manner in which they have handled or explained — or not fully explained — their respective roles and involvement in this project.

Does solitary qualify as torture?

WASHINGTON — “Zero Dark Thirty,” a nominee for Sunday’s Oscar as Best Picture, reignited debate about whether the waterboarding of terrorism suspects was torture.

This practice, which ended in 2003, was used on only three suspects. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of American prison inmates are kept in protracted solitary confinement that arguably constitutes torture and probably violates the Eighth Amendment prohibition of “cruel and unusual punishments.”

Noting that half of all prison suicides are committed by prisoners held in isolation, Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., has prompted an independent assessment of solitary confinement in federal prisons. State prisons are equally vulnerable to Eighth Amendment challenges concerning whether inmates are subjected to “substantial risk of serious harm.”

America, with 5 percent of the world’s population, has 25 percent of its prisoners.

Mass incarceration, which means a perpetual crisis of prisoners re-entering society, has generated understanding of solitary confinement’s consequences when used as a long-term condition for an estimated 25,000 inmates in federal and state supermax prisons — and perhaps 80,000 others in isolation sections within regular prisons. Clearly, solitary confinement involves much more than the isolation of incorrigibly violent individuals for the protection of other inmates or prison personnel.

George Will

georgewill@washpost.com

“

The mental pain of solitary confinement is crippling: Brain studies reveal durable impairments and abnormalities in individuals denied social interaction.”

Federal law on torture prohibits conduct “specifically intended to inflict severe physical or mental pain or suffering.” And “severe” physical pain is not limited to “excruciating or agonizing” pain, or pain “equivalent in intensity to the pain accompanying serious physical injury, such as organ failure, impairment of bodily functions, or even death.” The severe mental suffering from prolonged solitary confinement puts the confined at risk of brain impairment.

Supermax prisons isolate inmates from social contact.

Often prisoners are in their cells, sometimes smaller than 8 feet by 12 feet, 23 hours a day, released only for a shower or exercise in a small fenced-in outdoor space. Isolation changes the way the brain works, often making individuals more impulsive,

less able to control themselves. The mental pain of solitary confinement is crippling: Brain studies reveal durable impairments and abnormalities in individuals denied social interaction.

Plainly put, prisoners often lose their minds.

The first supermax began functioning in Marion, Ill., in 1983. By the beginning of this century there were more than 60 around the nation, and solitary-confinement facilities were in most maximumsecurity prisons. In an article (“Hellhole”) in the March 30, 2009, New Yorker, Atul Gawande, a surgeon who writes on public health issues, noted, “One of the paradoxes of solitary confinement is that, as starved as people become for companionship, the experience typically leaves them unfit for social interaction.” And those who are most incapacitated by solitary confinement are forced to remain in it because they have been rendered unfit for “the highly social world of mainline prison or free society.” Last year, The New York Times reported that of the prisoners sent to solitary confinement in California’s Pelican Bay prison because of gang affiliation, “248 have been there for 5 to 10 years; 218 for 10 to 20 years; and 90 for 20 years or more.”

Two centuries ago, solitary confinement was considered a humane reform, promoting reflection, repentance — penitence; hence penitentiaries — and rehabilitation.

Quakerism influenced the design of Philadelphia’s East-

ern State Penitentiary, which opened in 1829 with a regime of strict solitude. In 1842, Charles Dickens visited it: “I hold this slow and daily tampering with the mysteries of the brain, to be immeasurably worse than any torture of the body: and because its ghastly signs and tokens are not so palpable to the eye and sense of touch as scars upon the flesh; because its wounds are not upon the surface, and it extorts few cries that human ears can hear; therefore I the more denounce it, as a secret punishment which slumbering humanity is not roused up to stay.”

In 1890, the U.S. Supreme Court said of solitary confinement essentially what Dickens had said: “A considerable number of the prisoners fell, after even a short confinement, into a semi-fatuous condition, from which it was next to impossible to arouse them, and others became violently insane; others, still, committed suicide.”

Americans should be roused against this by decency — and prudence.

Mass incarceration is expensive (California spends almost twice as much on prisons as on universities) and solitary confinement costs, on average, three times as much per inmate as in normal prisons. And remember: Most persons now in solitary confinement will someday be back on America’s streets, some of them rendered psychotic by what are called correctional institutions.

Creativity is key To the editor: In today’s schools, we learn methods of memorization essential for succeeding on tests, The next week, month or even year after the test, the neuron connections in our brains begin to fade without focus or use. Every day, the Internet and smartphones are becoming a major reference for our weak neuron connections (aka memory). In just a matter of decades, computers will be installed in our glasses or even contact lenses, eliminating the need for memorization.

When this time comes, we must ask ourselves, are we giving our youth the right tools to succeed in the 21st century of technology? I believe the answer is no. We focus so little on what will be important in upcoming decades. You might ask, what is important? The answer to this question is very simple: imagination and creativity.

No supercomputer or artificial intelligence machine will ever master imagination to the degree of humans. Not anytime soon, anyway.

Our high schools (Lawrence High and Free State) require two fine arts credits.

This is embarrassing, and the rest of the country isn’t doing much if any better. Imagination and creativity are going to be the key to jobs in the near future, and I do mean near future. By 2050 we could

have the majority or jobs taken over by robots, a very scary thought. Just remember that we humans have the ability of creativity and imagination. Now is the time to start to reshape our learning system. Let’s start here, right in Lawrence, Kansas. We can start a movement.

Carbon tax To the editor: President Obama recently challenged our nation to combat climate change. Lacking a “market-based solution” from Congress, he promised to take action on his own. Republican lawmakers who find the prospect of further government regulations on power plants unacceptable should consider backing a revenue-neutral tax on carbon.

Recent record heat, drought and numerous climate-related disasters that unfolded in 2012 make it clear we must take steps to reduce the rising CO2 levels linked to the warming of our planet. A revenue-neutral carbon fee could be just the solution we need.

Such a fee, gradually increasing in predictable increments, would provide the necessary market stimulus to encourage entrepreneurs to develop viable energy alternatives. This would result in new jobs. The public would

be protected from shouldering the burden of increased energy costs by having the fee’s revenue returned directly to them. A border tariff imposed on goods from nations lacking similar carbon-pricing schemes would not only protect American energy producers, but also provide incentives for other nations to initiate policies to limit greenhouse emissions.

Exxon, Shell and BP have already expressed support for a price on carbon. Many conservative economists support a revenue-neutral carbon tax, including Art Laffer, economic adviser to President Reagan, and Greg Mankiw, economic adviser to President George W. Bush, and candidate Mitt Romney. With this kind of bipartisan support already in place, what’s holding Congress back?

It is time to demand Rep. Lynn Jenkins, and Sens. Roberts and Moran, take action on this issue.

Rebecca Ryan, Lawrence

Twenty rifles had been stolen from a display case in the home of a YEARS Lawrence man on AGO West 27th Street IN 1973 the previous day, Lawrence police reported. The entire house had been searched and ransacked, with losses listed at $2,785. Police described the firearms only as 12 custom rifles and eight military rifles. A small amount of cash and some inexpensive jewelry items had also been taken.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 21, 1913: YEARS “When the stuAGO dents at the KanIN 1913 sas Agricultural College wished to hold a meeting one night last week, they had to buy five tons of coal with their own money to heat one of the buildings. Fuel is that scarce at the agricultural college. Night meetings of various sorts usually held at the college at regular times every week for fifty years have been transferred, in many instances, this winter, to downtown meeting places because the college could not afford to buy coal....

KANSAS COACH BILL SELF, LEFT, HUGS KU GUARD NAADIR THARPE after Tharpe hit a floater to give the Jayhawks the final advantage over Oklahoma State in a 68-67, double-overtime KU victory on Wednesday in Stillwater, Okla.

Tharpe’s field goal puts KU on top

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

STILLWATER, OKLA. — Bill Self raced over to the man of the hour, the hero of the game, Naadir Tharpe, and wrapped his arms around the 5-foot-11 point guard, giving him a heck of a hug after Kansas University’s 68-67 double-overtime victory over Oklahoma State on Wednesday in Gallagher-Iba Arena.

“Coach just said, ‘You hit the game-winner,’” Tharpe said, smiling after his 7-footer in the lane with 16.5 ticks left in double OT pushed the Jayhawks (22-4, 10-3) into a tie for first place in the Big 12 Conference with Kansas State. Oklahoma State, which beat KU, 85-80, on Feb. 2 in Lawrence, fell to 9-4.

Pair of seniors huge for Kansas

“A lot of people don’t believe in me. (Self) does,” added Tharpe, who ran the show exclusively after Elijah Johnson fouled out in the first overtime.

“Coach called ‘flat,’ which we call at the end of the (shot) clock. I knew I had to make a play. I was a little disappointed in myself. I let Forte (Phil) hit a shot to tie the game (at 63-63 in first OT). I had some turnovers at the end. I was real thankful for coach doing that (hug) and having confi- KANSAS GUARD TRAVIS RELEFORD (24) PULLS UP for a bucket past Oklahoma dence in me.”

STILLWATER, OKLA. — The superstars ordained as NBA players before they step foot on a college campus dominate headlines and mock drafts, but there still is a place for seniors in college basketball. And that place late Wednesday night was Gallagher-Iba Arena, where two exhausted men stood in the winner’s circle after a heavyweight basketball game that couldn’t be settled until two extra rounds were fought.

Fifth-year Kansas seniors Jeff Withey and Travis Releford can’t match teammate Ben McLemore and Oklahoma State’s widebody freshman point guard Marcus Smart for talent and future earnings, but once the final of four buzzers sounded on a classic (warts and

Releford played 48 minutes and still he had enough fumes in his engine to race down a ball about to go out of bounds and to Oklahoma State, giving the Cowboys one more shot at winning Please see KEEGAN, page 5B

Goodrich good, but red-hot Texas tops Kansas J-W Staff Reports

AUSTIN, TEXAS — Texas hit its first 10 field-goal tries and shot a scorching 76 percent from the floor in the first half and cruised to a 93-83 victory over Kansas University in Big 12 women’s basketball on Wednesday.

UT never trailed and built a double-digit lead in the first five minutes. The 93

points were the most UT had scored against KU in Big 12 play.

“We dug ourselves in such a hole in the first half.

(Texas) had easy shots, which was inexcusable, and they had us on our heels,” KU coach Bonnie Henrickson said. “We didn’t play well defensively and didn’t show any pop, which is really disappointing. In this

league you have to be ready to play.”

Though the Longhorns (10-15 overall, 3-11 Big 12) cooled off to 52.2-percent shooting in the second half, they led by as many as 20.

Angel Goodrich played all 40 minutes for KU (15-9, 6-7) and scored a career-best 31 points, with six assists and six turnovers, and Carolyn

Davis added 23 points and eight rebounds.

Goodrich was 10-for-19 from the floor, 5-for-10 from three-point range and 6-for6 on free throws. Davis was 9-for-17 from the floor and 5-for-7 on free throws.

Kansas, whistled for 25 fouls to Texas’ 12, was outscored by 14 from the freethrow line.

Chassidy Fussell led

Texas with 26 points on 10for-12 shooting, including 4-for-5 shooting from three.

Imani McGee-Stafford (18 points), Nneka Enemkpali (15), Empress Davenport (13) and Brady Sanders (11) also scored in double figures for the Longhorns.

HOUSTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Houston Rockets have reached separate agreements on trades that will send Kansas University product Cole Aldrich, Patrick Patterson and Toney Douglas to Sacramento and ex-Jayhawk Marcus Morris to Phoenix, a person familiar with the Robinson situation said Wednesday.

The Rockets will receive former KU standout Thomas Robinson, the No. 5 pick in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft, Francisco Marcus Morris Garcia and Tyler Honeycutt from the Kings, according to the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal Aldrich had not been announced and was still pending league approval.

In the other deal, the person said the Rockets will receive a future second-round pick from the Suns in exchange for Morris, who will join his twin brother, Markieff, on the Phoenix roster.

Patterson, Aldrich and Douglas walked out of the Toyota Center just as Houston was starting its game against Oklahoma City, on the eve of the trading deadline. The Rockets came into the game holding the No. 8 spot in the Western Conference, and the moves were unexpected.

The 6-11 Aldrich, acquired in the James Harden trade with Oklahoma City just before the season, averaged 1.7 points in 30 games for Houston this season.

Sacramento had high hopes for the 6-10 Robinson, but he has disappointed so far, averaging only 4.8 points and 4.7 rebounds in 16 minutes per game.

The Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; deal with Phoenix, meanwhile, will reunite Marcus Morris with his twin brother, Markieff. The Suns took Markieff with the 13th pick in 2011 draft, and Marcus was right behind him again, going to Houston at No. 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I was to be traded, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where I would want to go,â&#x20AC;? Morris said outside the Rocketsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; locker room. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think Houston knew that. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all I did was talk about my brother and how happy I was to play with him. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all I can say.â&#x20AC;?

Marcus Morris had played in all but one of Houstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s games this season, making 17 starts.

He was averaging 8.6 points and 4.1 rebounds per game.

NCAA: Miami aides misled investigation CORAL GABLES, FLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The NCAA believes former Miami assistant coaches Clint Hurtt, Aubrey Hill and Jorge Fernandez provided false or misleading information during the probe into the Hurricanesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; athletic department.

Hurtt and Hill were members of Miamiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s football staff. Fernandez worked on the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball staff.

Several other coaches are named or referenced in the allegations, including Missouri basketball coach Frank Haith, who is alleged of failing â&#x20AC;&#x153;to promote an atmosphere for compliance.â&#x20AC;? But only Hurtt, Hill and Fernandez are facing the ethical-conduct charge, commonly known as NCAA Rule 10.1.

KANSAS GUARD TRAVIS RELEFORD (24) DIVES TO PUSH THE BALL AWAY FROM OKLAHOMA STATE GUARD MARKEL BROWN to run out the clock against Oklahoma State in double overtime on Wednesday in Stillwater, Oklahoma. The play helped KU escape with a 68-67 victory.

OSU: ‘We can’t sulk’ ————

Cowboys must ‘move on,’ prepare for WVU

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

KANSAS TEAMMATES KEVIN YOUNG (40) AND ELIJAH JOHNSON LAUGH before a couple of free throws from Young during the second half.

STILLWATER, OKLA. — Spare Oklahoma State basketball coach Travis Ford any talk about this being a down year in the Big 12. This might not be the time to share the opinion the Big 12 schedule is easier this year than most.

Kansas University defeated Ford’s Cowboys, 68-67 in double overtime, Wednesday, four days after OSU defeated Okla-

homa in overtime in the same building. Next up for Oklahoma State: The longest trip in the conference, a Saturday game in Morgantown, W.Va. “It’s too bad somebody had to lose, and it was us,” Ford said. “And we’ve got to move on. We can’t sulk about it. We can’t pout about it. We’ve got to move on.

The last couple of games, we played a lot of minutes. We need to get them off their feet and rest their minds before a long trip.”

Marcus Smart had a chance to win it in regulation but couldn’t get a good look at the basket. Markel Brown missed a shot in the second overtime that could have won it. The two players were the keys to Oklahoma State defeating Kansas in Lawrence.

“It was a down locker room,” Ford said. “They were disappointed, but, hey, I’m proud of how hard our guys played in a hard-fought game. You just watched two teams

that wanted to win pretty bad. Give them credit.

They made a tough shot there at the end. (Naadir Tharpe) made a tough shot, tough shot, tough shot.”

Said Brown: “It’s really tough, but we can’t dwell on it. We’ve got to move on. It’s the Big 12. It was a long game, so we have to get our rest for Saturday.”

As Brown noted, it’s the Big 12, which means there are no easy paths to the conference championship.

short celebration following the final horn.

“I said, ‘You won the game. It’s the biggest play you ever made in your life,’” Self said of a shot that Self said was “wellguarded” by Forte. “He and Ben’s shot against Iowa State (three to force overtime in KU victory over Cyclones) are our two biggest shots of the season so far.”

Oklahoma State still had a chance to win by converting on its final possession. With Marcus Smart (16 points, 11-for-14 from line and 2-of-14 from the field) having fouled out in the second OT, Markel Brown put up a jumper with 10 seconds left. The ball caromed to the corner, where Travis Releford kept the ball in bounds and tipped it downcourt away from Brown as the clock expired.

“Forte was falling and tried to throw it off Travis. Travis was able to keep that ball in bounds and bat it forward. It really was an unbelievable play by Trav,” Self added of the senior who had 18 points off 7-of-10 shooting and 4-for-7 free-throwing.

Regulation ended tied when Smart missed a deep fadeaway from three.

The first overtime ended

KANSAS GUARD BEN MCLEMORE (23) DEFENDS against a shot from Oklahoma State guard Markel Brown during the first half. when Releford missed a driving shot with :03 left, and Smart missed a deep heave. Self said he thought Releford was fouled, “But it worked out OK. He made a great move but didn’t get the call.”

Smart actually heaved a three-quarter-court shot that almost broke the tie after one OT, barely missing.

“That was more like fourth-fifths-court,” Self said. “That shocked me.

There were three seconds left, and he just shoots it.”

Jeff Withey was huge

for KU by hitting 11 of 14 free throws, grabbing 14 rebounds and scoring 17 points with four blocks.

Also, Kevin Young had 11 rebounds and eight points. Jamari Traylor provided a spark when needed the first half with four points.

“He is a man,” KU coach Self said of OSU’s Smart.

“He goes 2-for-14, we do about the best job we can on him and he makes free throws.”

KU will meet TCU at 3 p.m. Saturday in Allen Fieldhouse.

the game. He got to it and batted it forward to teammate Ben McLemore, and the game was over. Finally. Both teams exerted such effort and played such determined defense it hardly seemed fair that one had to walk away with a loss.

Kansas 68, Oklahoma State 67 in doubleovertime wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t soon be forgotten, and all the little things and big ones Releford and Withey did to compensate for a choppy offensive night from both teams were much appreciated by the coach who isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afraid to tell it like it is about his team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What a great hustle play by Travis to keep that ball from going out of bounds,â&#x20AC;? Kansas coach Bill Self said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And it

wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t out of bounds. It was six inches in. What an unbelievable hustle play by him to pat that ball ahead. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a happy locker room. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have a hard time getting home, obviously.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to get home until 4 or 5 in the morning with the weather. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a much sweeter ride now.â&#x20AC;?

Releford had just four first-half points. He finished with 18 points and six rebounds, made seven of 10 field goals and reminded everyone of what a terrific finisher he is. If he had to go up and under because Oklahoma Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s athletic, relentless defenders left him no other option, he went up and under.

Seniors donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get fazed easily because they have seen it all and heard it all in all types of tones. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He made a ton of head-up plays,â&#x20AC;? Self said of Releford. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Travis

wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t plugged in at all at half. I really got on him at half. He did a much better job (the rest of the night), did a great job defensively on whoever he was guarding.â&#x20AC;?

Afterward, Oklahoma State coach Travis Ford couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop talking about how impressed he was with Witheyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense on the perimeter, when he hedged a screen and completely fouled up a plan designed to get the winning shot at the end of regulation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather draw him out, make him make plays out there instead of close to the basket, but what a great, great job by him,â&#x20AC;?

Ford said.

Withey totaled 17 points, 14 rebounds and four blocked shots.

Both seniors needed to be at their best because McLemore didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t score his first points until 10:05 remained in regulation on a follow dunk, and he

O Yeah the situation Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in is great and all but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s obvious they want me to quit...

O All I was Tryna show this man is he had a guy that will take 50bullets for him but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blinded by his favorites...

O Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no question that I would of been getting

finished with seven points in 49 minutes. Elijah Johnson played a strong second half but was limited to 32 minutes before fouling out, and Naadir Tharpe couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get anything to drop until hitting his game-winner.

This teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s abundance of seniors can only help Kansas as it tries to lock down at least a share of the conference title with five games remaining.

Seniors are poised and hungry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go 1-for-11 from three and 17-of-27 from the line and have five assists,â&#x20AC;?

Self said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;... Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a remedy for getting blown out on the road against a good team. Somehow, our guys just figured out a way.

That was a tough win for us. Guys showed a lot of heart.â&#x20AC;?

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother comparing schedules. Kansas became the favorite to win the conference, and it has its seniors to thank for that.

KANSAS CENTER JEFF WITHEY (5) BLOCKS A DRIVE

by Oklahoma State guard Marcus Smart during the first half. mad minutes anywhere else in America people its a #FACT..

O Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2 Late Now....

O Alot of Hype can get you far I see it every time someone makes it and gets far...

O I just wanna be happy and play ball After an uproar from KU fans on Twitter, he posted: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all good I gone through this before.â&#x20AC;?

O Haha this is funny I tweet and its direct towards my team and KU give me a break if I feel I need to say something about my team ill say it O None of my tweets were ever directed toward KU but it seems everytime I tweet it so happens thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s who Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m talking bout thats not rite#AtAll Adams, or somebody using his account, did remove several of the posts before Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game.

Self spoke to the JournalWorld about the tweets after Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win at OSU. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is frustrated,â&#x20AC;? Self said of the player who has

not played much this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a great shootaround today. I talked to him about it (tweets).

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m disappointed heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say (tweet) anything negative.

He will not be doing anything negative in the future or he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be around. I read them. They were not the best in the world; they were not the worst, either.â&#x20AC;?

NBA trades Multiple outlets reported several trades involving Jayhawks in the NBA on Wednesday.

Marcus Morris reportedly was traded from Houston to Phoenix to join brother Markieff on the Suns. Cole Aldrich was traded from Houston to Sacramento. And Thomas Robinson was dealt from Sacramento to Houston.

Travel KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s traveling party was to drive to Oklahoma City after the game and fly to Lawrence. No de-icing equipment was available in Stillwater.

CÄ&#x2019; ĤĤÄ&#x2019;ĂŞÄ&#x2030;Ĺ&#x2019;Ä&#x192;ÂźÄ&#x2030;Ĺ&#x2019; CÂźÂ&#x203A;ÂźĹ&#x201E;Ĺ&#x201E;|ğź B C & VÄšZ ZT . <

Self fired up during big win STILLWATER, OKLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Bill Self, who gave out a batch of handshakes and hugs and executed a fist pump or two after Kansas Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s double-overtime victory over Oklahoma State on Wednesday, admits he was more animated than usual on a snowy night at his alma mater. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is probably as excited as Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been coaching in a game in a while,â&#x20AC;? Self said after sophomore guard Naadir Tharpeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shot in the lane gave the Jayhawks a 68-67 decision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I definitely was more animated with the officials tonight, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be honest, I look forward to watching tape. I think I could have been more (animated), to be honest.â&#x20AC;?

It was a game with huge implications in the league.

The victory boosted KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s league mark to 10-3, same as Kansas State. OSU fell to 9-4.
