Since her husband passed away and her back started acting up, Shirley Tarpy hasn’t been able to get around to all the yard work she used to do.

But come springtime the last two years, Tarpy has had a resource she never had before: a group of Kansas University students ready and willing to come rake leaves, clean out gutters and do whatever else needs to be done at her North Lawrence home.

She didn’t have to pull any strings or call in any favors to convince them to come help. All she had to do was

Lawrence city commissioners gave final approval Tuesday night to a development agreement that allows the $25 million Rock Chalk recreation center project to move forward.

They also approved an ordinance that will give the larger Rock Chalk Park project, which includes privately owned athletic facilities to be used by Kansas University, a 100 percent property tax abatement for the next 10 years.

The approval came on a pair of 4-1 votes, with only city commissioner Mike Mike Amyx was Amyx dissenting.

The commission gave apthe lone vote against the rec proval to the property tax center projects. abatement even though its key advisory board on economic development incentives failed to provide a positive recommendation for the requested abatement at an earlier meeting Tuesday.

The commissioners said they approved the project — which would include track and field, soccer and softball stadiums for Kansas University — because they felt it was important to the overall health of the community.

Rental inspection proposal stalls, will be revisited

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

City commissioners balked at the idea of creating a new rental licensing program Tuesday night but did not pull the plug on the idea.

A majority of commissioners said they thought some type of citywide rental inspection program is needed but questioned whether the city CITY currently had the where- COMMISSION withal to start a program that would inspect all 18,000 rental units in the city.

“I can tell you that 18,000 dwelling units is a huge number,” City Commissioner Mike Dever, an environmental Please see RENTAL, page 2A

consultant, said. “I inspect stuff for a living, and that number makes my head explode.�

But commissioners said they still want to try to create a program before the current City Commission leaves office, which will happen in early April when three of the five positions will be elected by voters at the April 2 election.

Commissioners agreed to put the issue back on their March 26 agenda, while in the meantime reaching out to several stakeholders in the apartment community and neighborhood associations.

Both landlords and neighborhood leaders were on hand Tuesday night. “This issue is about courage, leadership and safety,� said Tom Harper, a Lawrence neighborhood advocate who asked commissioners to approve an expanded rental licensing program. “People who rent their properties will have to ensure they are

He is survived by his wife of 66 years, Frances G. Woodman; 8 children: Susan Woodman, Jo Ann Garrett (Bob), Scott Woodman, Sherry Nader, Julie Woodman, Janet Woodman, Tom Woodman, and Rebecca Woodman; 10 grandchildren, 7 greatgrandchildren, 3 sisters, 1 brother, and many nieces and nephews.

safe, and that seems like a reasonable expectation.�

But members of the landlord community said the program and the proposed fees represented an overreach by government to address what is just a limited problem in the rental community.

Instead, several landlords argued the city needed to do more to increase awareness by tenants that they currently can call the city and ask for an inspection anytime they believe their property isn’t up to city code. “We’re looking at creating an overly broad program when what we really need is and an education program,� said Brandy Sutton, an attorney who represents several landlords.

The city’s current rental licensing program only covers rental units that are in single-family zoned neighborhoods. The proposal up for discussion Tuesday would have expanded the program to every rental unit in the city and would have required units to be inspected every three years. — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362.

Praeger broadens her case for Medicaid expansion TOPEKA (AP) — Kansas will hurt hospitals and poor residents if it doesn’t expand Medicaid as encouraged by the federal government’s health care overhaul, state Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger said Tuesday.

Praeger’s support for the expansion is another example of how the GOP commissioner is at odds with other Republicans over the 2010 federal health care law championed by President Barack Obama. Praeger, a moderate Republican, has praised the law as an important step toward ensuring universal access to health care, while many GOP conservatives, including Gov. Sam Brownback, are strong critics.

The Topeka CapitalJournal reported that Praeger said the state will be “leaving money on the table� if it doesn’t expand Medicaid, which provides health care for the needy and disabled. The federal

government has promised to pay for almost all of the expansion.

While Praeger has long been on record praising the federal law for broadening access to health care, she expanded her argument for the legislation Tuesday, saying hospitals in Kansas will take a financial hit if the state doesn’t expand Medicaid. That’s because the law reduces subsidies to care for uninsured patients — presuming that more of them will have coverage — and rural hospitals will be especially vulnerable, she said.

She said the Medicaid expansion likely would cover about 240,000 of the 365,000 uninsured Kansans.

Otherwise, many poor residents will continue to rely on overburdened hospital emergency rooms for care, Praeger said. “That is a group that is probably not getting the care they need,� Praeger said. “We know they’re not.�

“I think there is a potential for the university, our largest employer, to be damaged by not moving forward with this project,�

Commissioner Mike Dever said.

Tuesday’s vote puts the recreation center project — a 181,000-square-foot building with eight gyms and other amenities — on track to be put out for construction bids in late March and to have bids accepted in mid-April, although it will be up to the next City Commission to approve those bids after the April 2 election.

Tuesday night’s vote also is one of the last needed for Kansas University and its private partner — Thomas Fritzel’s Bliss Sports — to begin construction on the stadium portion of the project.

Both the Rock Chalk Park project and the recreation center are planned for property just north and east of the Sixth Street and South Lawrence Trafficway interchange.

The stadium projects will receive a 100 percent, 10-year tax abatement that is expected to waive about $17 million worth of property taxes over the time period.

But the city’s Public Incentives Review Committee on Tuesday afternoon could not reach an agreement on whether to recommend approval of the tax abatements. The committee deadlocked 3-3 on whether to recommend the tax abatement.

Rob Chestnut, who is a member of the Public Incentives Review Committee and a current candidate for the City Commission, raised several concerns about whether the city’s financial analysis of the project was accurate.

City commissioners, however, said it was difficult to create a traditional financial analysis for the project because it is not driven by the number of jobs it will directly create but rather by the number of visitors it may bring to the community and other indirect benefits.

Mayor Bob Schumm and Dever — who have served as the lead negotiators for the city — also both expressed concern that if the city didn’t support the Rock Chalk Park project, KU may consider building the proposed sports facilities outside of Lawrence. “They easily could leave the community,� Schumm said. “There are other people who would love to have this, and one of them is just down the road in Wyandotte County.�

Amyx, who is up for re-election April 2 and received the highest number of votes in last week’s primary, was the lone commissioner to vote against both the incentives request and the development agreement between the city and RCP LLC — an entity of KU Endowment Association — and Fritzel’s Bliss Sports.

Amyx said he believed the Rock Chalk Park project deserved more scrutiny based on the strong private element to the development through Bliss Sports’ ownership of the facilities. Bliss will lease the facilities to KU. KU and Bliss officials have said they hope to begin construction on the Rock Chalk Park portion of the project soon. Plans call for the 2014 Kansas Relays to be held at the new track and field stadium. — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362.

Community foundation awarding $200K in grants

By Matt Erickson merickson@ljworld.com

Douglas County Community Foundation will award about $200,000 from its community grant fund this year to 43 area groups, it announced Tuesday

— a jump of about $50,000 from its 2012 total and the highest number of grants since the organization formed in 2000.

The increase is thanks to more giving as well as income on investments, said Chip Blaser, the foundation’s executive director.

“It’s really a tribute to those donors who make that possible in the community,� Blaser said.

The recipients of the 43 grants, chosen by the foundation’s board of directors, applied for funding in December as part of an annual process.

The largest grant, for about $10,300, will go to Independence Inc. to purchase vehicles with wheelchair lifts to transport people with disabilities.

The foundation received an increased number of requests from organizations serving old-

er adults and people with disabilities this year, Blaser said.

Process for removing sheriff ‘a last resort’ ———

Following the arrest last week of Franklin County Sheriff Jeff Curry and Deputy Jerrod Fredricks, Franklin County Attorney Stephen Hunting relied on a seldom-used Kansas law to try and remove Curry from office. “It’s kind of a last resort,� said Melissa Wangemann, legal counsel for the Kansas Association of Counties, of the civil case Hunting initiated last week after Curry and Fredricks were arrested by KBI agents on felony counts of interfering with law enforcement. “It’s Curry rarely used.�

It’s known as an “ouster proceeding,� and it allows county attorneys to seek removal of a public official under several circumstances, such as when a public official engages in misconduct, neglects duties or commits a violation of “moral turpitude.�

program and to Just Food to help low-income people access healthy food.

Other grants range in purpose from community health to arts and theater.

The foundation also received an increase in requests for funding from groups outside Lawrence, including from Baldwin City and Lecompton, Blaser said.

The gifts announced come from the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general-purpose community grant fund, which contains about $6 million. Foundation donors can choose to give money to that fund, which awards grants to a variety of organizations each year as chosen by the board of directors.

Most of the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grants come from donoradvised funds, established

Sheriff CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Wangemann could cite only one other instance of a sheriff being ousted.

In 2000, Shawnee County Sheriff Dave Meneley was ousted after a sevenday civil trial following his involvement in a drug scandal with the sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unclear when Curryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ouster proceedings will take place, but both he and Fredricks â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who are both barred from possessing firearms by court order â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are scheduled to appear in Franklin County District Court today on the criminal charges.

At a news conference last week, Hunting, who was not available for comment Tuesday, asked for Curry to resign immediately, though that has yet to happen. Wangemann said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more common for a public official to resign amid criminal allegations than challenge the ouster.

While the ouster civil case is in process, a judge could suspend Curry from his duties and appoint a

by individuals, families or businesses who recommend donations to specific organizations.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total awarded from the community grant fund, Blaser said, is the highest since the organization shifted to its current structure. In 2012, the foundation awarded about $149,000 in grants from the fund.

From all of its funds, the foundation awards about $2 million in grants each year. In December it surpassed $10 million in total grants awarded since its formation in 2000, following a $4 million gift from the late Tensie Oldfather that gave it its start.

Altogether, the foundation has more than $20 million in assets. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas University reporter Matt Erickson can be reached at 832-6388.

temporary replacement until the case is resolved.

According to the criminal complaint filed by a special prosecutor from the Shawnee County District Attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office, Curry is accused of using confidential information gained through his office for his or another personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gain, or to cause harm to another, on May 30, 2012, and then making false statements to investigators on Sept. 27, 2012.

Fredricks, who served as public information officer for the sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, is accused of making false statements on Oct. 5, 2012, after the investigation had been made public. The circumstances of these alleged incidents remain unclear, however.

Both were booked into the Wyandotte County Jail last week but quickly posted bond. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reporter Shaun Hittle can be reached at 832-7173. Follow him at Twitter.com/ shaunhittle.

but for homeowners and groups who need help getting something done.

Lauren Reinhart, a KU senior from Kansas City, Mo., is the executive director for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Big Event. The purpose for the effort, she said, is for people of KU to thank Lawrence for providing them and the university a home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a great community, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice way to just give back to the town of Lawrence in general,â&#x20AC;? Reinhart said.

During KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Big Event in 2011, about 500 students spread out to around 100 project sites.

For the second go-around in 2012, about 2,000 volunteers went to about 200 sites as some faculty and staff joined as well.

This year, Reinhart said, organizers are setting their sights high.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try to double both those numbers from last year and recruit 4,000 volunteers and 400 projects in need of help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little ambitious,â&#x20AC;? Reinhart said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but I think we can do it.â&#x20AC;?

The oldest and biggest Big Event, at Texas A&M University, sends around 17,000 volunteers to about 2,000 sites each year.

Since the A&M effort began about 30 years ago, about 80 other Big Events have sprung up.

Tarpy signed up to receive help from KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Big Event both years, and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on the list again this year.

Each year a small group of students have come to take care of some springtime tasks that she hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to get take care of herself.

Last year about six came, and they helped paint her foundation, clean out her gutters and rake leaves on her tree-heavy lot.

They left about 30 bags of leaves at the curb, she said. They brought their

Tarpyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story shows one way the Big Event can help folks around town, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s far from the only story.

Reinhart emphasized that anybody at all can ask for help. There are no requirements for financial need, age or anything else.

Believe it or not, organizers actually have a tougher time recruiting people to ask for help on the Big Event day than they do recruiting volunteers. So, Reinhart says, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be shy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pretty much the message we want to send is that, you know, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no limit to the amount of service that we can give,â&#x20AC;? Reinhart said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No job is too small or too big for us to send people.â&#x20AC;?

As long as a job is safe and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require power tools, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fair game, Reinhart said.

She pitched in during the

projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first two years, and she has trimmed hedges, raked leaves, scraped peeling paint and laid mulch outside a school.

Ashley Ellis, a KU junior from Kansas City, Mo., has also volunteered both years, rounding up other helpers from the Chi Omega sorority last year as well.

Last year she helped rake leaves with a group of around seven students, which was serious work on a warm April day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember getting kind of sweaty,â&#x20AC;? Ellis said.

But the appreciative homeowner brought out cookies and lemonade when they were done, she said.

Volunteers will also wash windows, dust or sweep, paint inside or outside, or move something that needs moving. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll work this year from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 13.

In most cases theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll bring their own tools and other materials. Last year, Reinhart said, the Big Event ordered about 4,000 lawn waste bags to

use around the city.

Residents can sign up to request help online at thebigeventku.com or over the phone at 8647469. Big Event volunteers will also be flooding the streets of Lawrence on Saturday, Reinhart said, handing out sign-up forms to residents door-to-door.

Job requests are due by March 31.

Tarpy has already put in her request for this year: Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like volunteers to cut some brush along her fence and also clean her gutters and rake leaves again. She could ask them to wash her windows, but she likes to save a few tasks for herself.

For others in town, she says, her recommendation is simple: Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think twice about signing up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you need the help,â&#x20AC;?

Tarpy said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;let them do it.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas University reporter Matt Erickson can be reached at 832-6388.

COURTS â&#x20AC;˘ A 60-year-old Ottawa woman has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for her part in a prescription drugtrafficking ring, according to a news release issued by the office of U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom.

Connie Edwards was found guilty in November of one count of conspiracy with intent to distribute prescription drugs. According to prosecutors, one of the people Edwards sold drugs to died in 2009 after taking a combination of several prescription painkillers.

As part of a plea agreement with federal prosecutors in Kansas City, Kan., Edwards admitted to selling oxycodone, hydrocodone, methadone, morphine and other prescription drugs, as well as dealing in stolen property, in Franklin County between 2007 and 2012.

Of the nine other defendants in the case, one has been sentenced to five years

Michael P. Mason pleaded no contest to burglary Monday in Douglas County District Court after prosecutors accused him of breaking into an apartment in the 2400 block of Louisiana Street on Nov. 1. Mason was arrested about 9 a.m. that day after a resident told police that he woke up to find someone in his apartment taking items. The resident confronted the burglar and the two struggled until police arrived.

Mason is scheduled for sentencing on April 2.

Depending on his criminal history, state sentencing guidelines could require probation or a prison sentence of up to 34 months.

Coronado was convicted in August of four counts of sexual exploitation and one Nicks count of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.

KAKE-TV in Wichita reported that Nicks entered the guilty pleas in exchange for the state dropping two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.

According to Lawrence school district records, Nicks was employed as a special education paraeducator at South Junior High from

April 18 to May 25, 2005.

District spokeswoman Julie Boyle said records indicate he resigned his position after that.

Nicks played football at KU in 2001 and 2002 as an offensive lineman and center.

Paraeducator positions do not require a teaching license. Lawrence district officials could not say whether he held a teaching license or whether he had worked in any other districts.

Sentencing is scheduled for May 3. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 832-7259. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Associated Press contributed to this story.

Douglas County commissioners will review the latest plans for mining at the Big Springs Quarry on the west edge of the county.

Commissioners will review the request when they meet at 6:35 p.m.

Wednesday at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St. Mid-States Materials, LLC, which owns and operates the quarry that straddles the Douglas-Shawnee county line, is asking to revise the phasing schedule at the quarry. The company is currently operating in an area known as Phase

3, which is south of North 1700 Road and east of East 50 Road.

The company is asking to change the schedule in its conditional use permit to move directly west across East 50 Road, in an area currently marked as Phase 6, which abuts the county line.

Mid-States wants to begin quarrying that area at the same time it opens an adjacent area in Shawnee County. A letter from the company to the LawrenceDouglas County planning department indicates it wants to service both tracts with a single haul road instead of building separate haul roads in both Douglas and Shawnee counties.

In other business, the commission will consider consent agenda items that include:

Approval of 2012 township annual reports.

Turkey abuse case sent to D.A.

No arrests have been made and no charges have been filed, but police have forwarded information about an alleged Dec. 14, 2012, turkey abuse incident at a Kansas University fraternity to the Douglas County District Attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is under review and there is no timeline for a charging,â&#x20AC;? said Cheryl Wright Kunard, a spokeswoman for the D.A.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office.

The investigation stems from an incident at the Beta Theta Pi fraternity, 1425 Tennessee St. According to police, witnesses reported that a turkey â&#x20AC;&#x201D; obtained for a winter party â&#x20AC;&#x201D; had been â&#x20AC;&#x153;poked by individuals through the cage and heckled during the evening.â&#x20AC;?

Venezuelan leader dies at 58

By Frank Bajak and Ian James

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

Notable

Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s power grid is like an old car.

It gets the job done, even if its performance is slipping. But the repair bills go up every year and experts say only a major overhaul will reverse its decline.

An Associated Press analysis of utility spending and reliability nationwide found that electric customers are spending 43 percent more than they did in 2002 to build and maintain local electric infrastructure.

Since then, power outages have remained infrequent; but when the lights do go out, it now takes longer to get them back on.

Associated Press

CARACAS, VENEZUELA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; President Hugo Chavez was a former paratroop commander and selfstyled â&#x20AC;&#x153;subversiveâ&#x20AC;? who waged continual battle for his socialist ideals. He bedeviled the United States and outsmarted his rivals time and again, while using Venezuelaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vast oil wealth to his political advantage.

Chavez led one coup attempt, defeated another and was re-elected three times. Almost the only adversary it seemed he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t beat was cancer.

He died Tuesday in Caracas at age 58, two years after he was first diagnosed.

The son of schoolteachers, he rose from poverty in a dirt-floor, mud-walled house, a â&#x20AC;&#x153;humble soldierâ&#x20AC;? in the battle for socialism. He fashioned himself after 19th-century independence leader Simon Bolivar and renamed his country the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

During more than 14 years in office, his leftist politics and grandiose style polarized Venezuelans. The barrel-chested leader electrified crowds with his booming voice, and won admiration among the poor with government social programs and a folksy, nationalistic style.

Opponents seethed at the larger-than-life character who demonized them on television and ordered the expropriation of farms and businesses.

Many in the middle class cringed at his bombast and complained about rising crime, soaring inflation and government economic controls.

VENEZUELAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S PRESIDENT HUGO CHAVEZ wears a Mexican sombrero as he sings a Mexican ranchera song at a rally in Caracas, Venezuela, in this Nov. 19, 2005, file photo. Venezuelaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Vice President Nicolas Maduro announced on Tuesday that Chavez died at age 58 after a nearly two-year bout with cancer. housing, free health clinics and education programs. While poverty declined during his presidency amid a historic boom in oil earnings, critics said he failed to use the windfall of hundreds of billions of dollars to develop the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy.

Inflation soared and the homicide rate rose to among the highest in the world Before his struggle with cancer, the charismatic leader appeared on television almost daily, speaking for hours and breaking into song or philosophical discourse.

He often wore the bright red of his United Socialist Party of Venezuela, or the fatigues and red beret of his army days â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the same uniform he donned

in 1992 while leading an ill-fated coup attempt that first landed him in jail and then launched his political career.

The rest of the world watched as the country with the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest proven oil reserves took a turn to the left under its unconventional leader, who considered himself above all else a revolutionary. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still a subversive,â&#x20AC;?

Chavez told The Associated Press in a 2007 interview, recalling his days as a rebel soldier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the entire world has to be subverted.â&#x20AC;?

Chavez was a master communicator and savvy political strategist, and managed to turn his struggle against cancer into a rallying cry, until the illness finally defeated him.

Dow hits record

By Bernard Condon Associated Press

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The stock market is back.

Five and a half years after the start of a frightening drop that erased $11 trillion from stock portfolios and made investors despair of ever getting their money back, the Dow Jones industrial average has regained all the losses suffered during the Great Recession and reached a new high.

The blue-chip index rose 125.95 points Tuesday and closed at 14,253.77, topping the previous record of 14,164.53 on Oct. 9, 2007, by 89.24 points. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It signals that things are getting back to normal,â&#x20AC;? says Nicolas Colas, chief market strategist at ConvergEx Group, a brokerage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unemployment is too high, economic growth too sluggish, but stocks are anticipating improvement.â&#x20AC;?

The new record suggests that investors who did not panic and sell their stocks in the 20082009 financial crisis have fully recovered. Those who have reinvested dividends or added to their holdings have done even better. Since bottoming at 6,547.05 on March 9, 2009, the Dow has risen 7,706.72 points or 118 percent.

Statesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rights bills surge in popularity with GOP â&#x20AC;&#x153;

By Sean Murphy

Where is Jay Leno when you need him? If I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know this was reality, I would think this â&#x20AC;&#x201D; One committee was something out of a movie.â&#x20AC;?

Associated Press

OKLAHOMA CITY bill would make it a felony to enforce the new federal health care law, punishable by up to five years in prison. Another prohibits a physician from asking a patient about firearms.

Yet another is designed to curb the possible influence of the United Nations in local government.

While provocative bills arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t particularly unusual in state legislatures, so many have been offered by conservatives in Oklahoma this year that GOP leaders have established a special committee to handle what is now a major category of business: measures to combat the federal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s influence in the states. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This gives a platform for what I think are issues that are concerning

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Rep. Mike Shelton D-Oklahoma City to a lot of Oklahomans, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s this continual overreach of the federal government,â&#x20AC;? said House Speaker T.W. Shannon.

Similar statesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rights panels have been formed in Texas and Utah, which are also controlled by the GOP, and have been proposed in Alaska, Missouri and Tennessee.

President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s re-election last year, while a victory for the Democrats, has made the anti-federal cause a growth industry in states dominated by conservative Republicans. When legislatures reconvened this year, a flood of bills

came forth to block enforcement of federal laws, deny authority to federal agencies, and circumvent federal policies related to firearms, religion, the environment and, most of all, health care. Across the country, dozens of bills have been introduced to nullify federal firearms laws alone.

Even though many measures are legally questionable and may never come to a floor vote, the special committees are providing more public attention to sovereignty issues that were sidetracked in previous years.

In Oklahoma, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

of inflation. Adjusted for that, the Dow would have to reach 15,502 to match its old record, according to JPMorgan Chase.

The Standard and Poorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 500, a broader index, closed at 1,539.79, 25.36 points from its record.

The last time the Dow hit a record, George W. Bush still had another year as president, Apple had just sold its first iPhone, and Lehman Brothers was still in business.

But unemployment was also 4.7 percent versus 7.9 percent today, a reminder that stock gains have proved no elixir for the economy.

Still, the Dow high is another sign that the nation is slowly healing after the worst recession since the 1930s.

It comes as car sales are at a five-year high, home prices are rising, and U.S. companies continue to report big profits.

The stock gains have helped retirement and brokerage accounts held by many Americans recover. That, in turn, has helped push U.S. household wealth nearly back to its peak before the recession, though many in the middle class are still deep in the hole. Most middleclass wealth is tied up in home values, which are still a third below their peak.

going to be healthy debate and discussion about what the limits of the federal government are and also about where state sovereignty begins,â&#x20AC;? said Shannon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a worthy discussion to have.â&#x20AC;?

In marble halls normally bustling with suit-andtie legislators and lobbyists, witnesses wearing camouflage, jeans and ball caps now file into committee rooms for sessions.

Usually somnolent hearings are now sometimes raucous.

When the Oklahoma statesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rights committee recently passed a bill that prohibits cities and counties from adopting any environmental recommendations in the United Nationsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Agenda 21 plan, many of those in attendance burst into applause.

Some Democrats say they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whether

to be alarmed or amused. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where is Jay Leno when you need him?â&#x20AC;? said Rep. Mike Shelton of Oklahoma City, one of 29 Democrats in the 101-member state House. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know this was reality, I would think this committee was something out of a movie.â&#x20AC;?

At a recent hearing, Democratic Rep. Kay Floyd, who was an administrative law judge before winning election to the Legislature, expressed concern that several bills the committee passed appeared to be unconstitutional. Republican Rep. Gus Blackwell, the author of a measure contravening part of the federal health care law, responded: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Supreme Court may go on and make another decision. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care.â&#x20AC;? His comment drew nods of approval from those in attendance.

Legal questions arise about retired pope VATICAN CITY (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Attorneys who have tried unsuccessfully for years to sue the Vatican over failures to stop clergy sex abuse are looking into whether former Pope Benedict XVI is more legally vulnerable in retirement, especially if he travels beyond the Vatican walls.

A U.S. lawyer for the Vatican argues that, like any former head of state, Benedict retains legal immunity regardless of whether he is in or out of office. But advocates for victims say immunity in this case should be tested, since modern-day courts have never before dealt with an emeritus pope. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So much of this is unprecedented,â&#x20AC;? said Pamela Spees, an attorney with the Center for Constitutional Rights in New York, which is pressing the International Criminal Court to investigate the Vaticanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response to abusive priests as a crime against humanity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing set in stone about it.â&#x20AC;?

Kobach conflict The Kansas Senate advanced one measure favored by the Kansas secretary of state but added a provision he is less likely to support.

A

bill passed by the Kansas Senate last week was a mixed bag for Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach.

The initial bill under consideration would give the Secretary of State’s Office the power to prosecute election fraud cases. Kobach has vigorously supported the legislation, saying that the prosecution of these cases shouldn’t be left to county and district attorneys, who can’t give them the proper attention. Given the lack of evidence of significant voter fraud in the state and the fact that local prosecutors oppose the bill because they believe they have the situation under control, adding enforcement powers and staff to the Secretary of State’s Office seems like a poor expenditure of state funds. Another drawback of allowing any secretary of state to prosecute voter fraud cases is that some people in that office might allow political motivation to influence their prosecutorial strategy. For instance, Kobach’s contention that voter fraud is a big problem in Kansas might lead him to pursue questionable cases.

Nonetheless, the Senate approved the bill. However, before doing so, they added a largely unrelated amendment that would require Kobach to abolish his Prairie Fire Political Action Committee. Senators apparently weren’t worried about the political problems of allowing the secretary of state to prosecute voter fraud but were clear on the political problems associated with a secretary of state operating his own PAC. Legislators and other Kansans need look no further than last November’s disputed 54th District Kansas House race to see the problems with the secretary of state operating a PAC. After House districts were redrawn, Democratic Rep. Ann Mah was moved into the 54th District and was challenged by Republican Ken Corbet. After the election, Mah trailed Corbet by just 44 votes and sought to obtain the names of people who had cast provisional ballots to urge them to do the follow-up necessary to make sure their votes were counted.

Kobach filed a lawsuit in federal court to block Mah’s effort.

In the end, both Kobach and Mah lost; the court ruled against Kobach, but Mah still lost the race. The kicker, however, is that a campaign report filed with the Secretary of State’s office on Nov. 2, 2012, shows that Kobach’s own Prairie Fire PAC had paid $3,123 for an item listed as “Ken Corbet mailer” — a mailer supporting Mah’s opponent.

Did his PAC’s support of Corbet have any impact on Kobach’s pursuit of this case? It’s impossible to prove, but the PAC’s activity certainly calls the secretary’s of state’s actions into question.

Ideally, the two issues covered by the legislation approved by the Senate last week should be separated as the bill moves forward. Whether or not Kobach is successful in obtaining voter fraud prosecution powers, the need to ban the state’s top election official from operating a political action committee is clear.

New Syria policy falls far short Biscuits and Band-Aids.

Those two words sum up the farcical “new” policy toward Syria that Secretary of State John Kerry announced at a Rome meeting with Syrian opposition leaders.

In what was ballyhooed as a major breakthrough, the United States will, for the first time, provide aid to the armed Syrian opposition. So what are we giving to help Syrian rebels confront the missiles and bombs that have killed tens of thousands of civilians? Not desperately needed antitank or antiaircraft weapons, but medical aid and MREs, those readyto-eat-meals used as field rations for American soldiers.

Biscuits and Band-Aids to combat Bashar al-Assad’s Scuds.

The Rome meeting was supposed to be a high point of Kerry’s first overseas tour, aimed at enhancing the credibility of moderate Syrian opposition leaders. Instead it had the opposite effect, undercutting their credibility and raising the question of whether Washington really wants Assad gone.

The administration is rightly worried that al-Qaidalinked groups are taking the lead in the battle against the Syrian president, but apparently not worried enough to stop them. Radical Islamists raise funds from the Arab Gulf, which enables them to attract recruits and distribute charity to desperate civilians. Moderate groups led by defecting Syrian officers or civilians are short of bullets.

There is only one way to shift that thinking: Convince the regime and its backers that Assad could lose.”

This raises the specter of a dominant Islamist presence on the ground if Assad falls.

Meantime, neither moderates nor Islamists have the heavy weapons needed to counter the regime’s planes and missiles; this has led to a military stalemate. The longer this fight goes on, the more likely Syria will become a failed state and a mecca for jihadis in the heart of the Middle East.

That’s why former administration officials Hillary Rodham Clinton, Leon Panetta, and David Petraeus, along with Joint Chiefs Chairman Martin Dempsey, supported a plan to arm and train certain Syrian rebels who had been CIA-vetted.

President Obama declined.

The administration says it wants to facilitate a negotiated solution. Kerry says his goal is to change Assad’s calculus (and that of his allies in Moscow). “He needs to

know that he can’t shoot his way out of this,” Kerry said in Rome, adding that Assad is “out of time and must be out of power.” But Kerry’s puny military aid offer sends the opposite message.

“Biscuits and Band-Aids won’t have a big impact at this point,” says Salman Shaikh, the director of the Brookings Institution’s Doha Center, who has been working with tribal and clan leaders on ideas for a Syrian transition. “Syria and Russia won’t be overly concerned.”

True, Kerry also announced an additional $60 million to help the umbrella Syrian Opposition Council (SOC) provide services in areas controlled by rebels. This is a positive step.

But that aid can’t stop Assad’s missiles and bombs.

As for negotiations, Shaikh says: “The regime will never negotiate in good faith. They believe they are winning.”

Assad’s backers in the Kremlin and in Tehran also believe he can hold on.

There is only one way to shift that thinking: Convince the regime and its backers that Assad could lose. To do that, the United States and its allies would have to shift the Syrian military balance — by arming and training certain rebel commanders and units. Washington knows who those commanders are.

The CIA had officers on the Turkish border for a year, and they met with many rebel officers from inside Syria.

The risk of heavy weapons going astray could be

minimized; a new Syrian Free Army command was organized in December that could be used as a control.

Instead, Kerry’s announcement in Rome has undercut the SOC and the rebel military command structure by leaving Assad free to bomb.

Syrian sources close to the Free Syrian Army say Kerry’s offer has spurred a huge wave of anger, along with a stream of bitter jokes.

There’s a slim chance that Kerry’s pledge is only a first step. Britain and France have promised to send night-vision goggles and body armor — still too little, too late, but better than MREs. Yet much more is required to break the military stalemate. Washington, or its allies, would have to boost the capacity of the Free Syrian Army with training and heavy weapons. Obama would have to play hardball with the Russians, insisting that, if they don’t push harder, we’d help the opposition win.

There’s no sign that Obama is heading in that direction.

“You have a president who doesn’t want to own this conflict and is very popular for saying he got us out of the Middle East,” says Shaikh, correctly. “If he doesn’t do more, soon, he won’t be able to shape the situation on the ground.”

Biscuits and Band-Aids won’t persuade Assad he can’t shoot his way out.

Civics lesson To the editor: It’s ironic that a “Celebrate Freedom Week” bill (HB 2280) passed the Kansas House last week. The bill requires, among other things, that public schools offer additional lessons about constitutional rights.

HB 2280 was sponsored by 30 representatives. Twentyeight of these legislators also voted in favor of HB 2023, which includes the following language: “It shall be a prohibited practice for a public employee organization to endorse candidates, or spend any of its income … to engage in political activities.”

Rather unimaginatively disguised as “paycheck protection,” HB 2023 simply legislates away a sizable chunk of First Amendment rights for targeted groups of people. If anyone needs a lesson about the Bill of Rights, it is the 68 Republicans in the Kansas House who voted in favor of HB 2023.

I’m a science teacher by trade but I think this civics lesson is simple enough, so here goes. House GOP, listen up: The rights of free speech, press, assembly and petitioning of the government do not come with a footnote excluding public employees or groups of public employees. The U.S. Supreme Court agrees. In “Citizens United,” the court ruled that corporations — including labor unions — may spend their own money for political activities.

Passing frivolous laws with catchy names may be cheap catharsis for hypocrites, but as a celebration of freedom, it’s shameful and pathetic. If lawmakers wish to celebrate freedom, they must lead by example. True freedom fighters stand against efforts to silence and disenfranchise any group of citizens.

David Reber, Lawrence

Bond support To the editor: My vote goes in favor of the bond issue. I see many positives in favor of it, most of all the reinforcing of the neighborhood school model.

When we moved here in 1962, one of the best things my wife and I saw that ultimately convinced us to stay here was the fact that our kids could walk to school most of the time (except, of course, when they overslept or had a zero-hour rehearsal!). Add to that the many improvements that are included in the package, with no direct increase in property tax and it’s a no-brainer in my not-normally-humble opinion.

YOUR TURN

Long-time resident shares local memories

By Mary Lou Nelson Penny

Lawrence is a fun place to live. Yep, I’ve tried it, compared it, and don’t find it wanting. Well, there may be a thing or two that could improve it — like having a mountain on the west side of town, maybe a lock on one side of the Jackman Dam so canoes and small boats could navigate the Kaw. We love what we have though — just the way it is.

We have HISTORY! We are alive to the now of life and we look to the future. We are a people that love life and we thank God for it all. Just read today’s Journal-World. There is a lot going on. People are stepping out and taking on big improvements. The City Commission is working on projects like utilizing the Farmland property and considering designating a few city blocks of Lawrence as a “cultural district.” Many city blocks are architecturally and historically significant.

It makes some of us oldtimers smile when we see new names given to parts of this old town we grew up knowing before it had these names. One of our favorite playgrounds was what we called Potter’s Lake. Now it is known as Potter Lake. Did you know Kansas University had a small golf course around the lake? It is great to see the

slough that is just east of Learnard and 19th Street given the distinction of a name, Burroughs Creek Trail, and putting in a delightful pathway for all to enjoy. We called it Foggy Bottoms. Mr. Burroughs was not a known entity in our lives then. It was just unclaimed territory that allowed us kids a place to roam and investigate. Adjacent and to the east of that, on a piece of higher ground was where the Stolland boys, the Hodges brothers, Max Falkenstien and others played seasonal ball games and called themselves The South Side Athletic Club.

There was Green’s Lake, north of the hospital and past the old brick plant. It was a small zoo. Cages in a row north of the lake inhabited by the animals many of us had begged for, obtained, enjoyed, neglected and told we couldn’t keep: alligators, raccoons, a really mean monkey, rabbits, coyotes.

My friends and I considered Dyche Museum to be the home base for our lives of Saturday action. Rain or shine, we could spend hours there — a great place to take visiting relatives.

Here’s hoping there are others that find joy in recalling their lives — here in Lawrence and elsewhere.

— Mary Lou Nelson Penny is a long-time Lawrence resident.

KANSAS WOMEN 74, TCU 67

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Don’t discount new KU O-line Nothing beats an offensive line with a few fifthyear seniors loaded with game experience. Five years of body sculpting. All that time spent refining blocking technique. Such rich chemistry from so many practices spent together.

No wonder Kansas University running back James Sims always went out of his way to thank the men paving the way last season. Left tackle Tanner Hawkinson, left guard Duane Zlatnik and center Trevor Marrongelli formed a rare trio in terms of time spent together in the huddle as their games and frames steadily grew. They combined for 909 pounds and 110 starts.

Now they’re gone, but hope is not.

Second-year offensive line coach Tim Grunhard always has a story from his days at Notre Dame or the Kansas City Chiefs he can customize to what his blockers need to hear at any given moment.

“When I was a sophomore, we had a senior-laden line just like we did here last year and when all those guys left, guys like Andy Heck, me, Dean Brown and Mike Heldt had to step in and play,” Grunhard said.

The preseason magazines didn’t like Notre Dame’s chances because of the inexperienced offensive line.

“We went on and won a national championship with that line,” Grunhard said.

“I’m not saying that’s what’s going to happen here, but what I keep telling these guys is if they get together and they believe in each other and they overachieve and they work hard together they have a chance to do something special.”

Two physical junior college offensive line recruits are participating in spring football and one more reports in the summer, but it’s returning senior Aslam Sterling whose potential is the most intriguing. Listed as the starting right tackle on the depth chart, Sterling already has done something special in terms of reshaping

Seniors secure victory late in not-so-easy home finale

“

By Jesse Newell

It was exciting that we got this win. We didn’t make it easy on ourselves, but it was a good win.”

jnewell@ljworld.com

With under a minute left, Kansas University point guard Angel Goodrich took a few dribbles into the lane, glanced to her left and at the same time flipped a push pass back to her right.

Waiting for it was teammate Carolyn Davis, who put in the layup that left KU fans with one final highlight from their two star seniors in a 7467 victory over TCU. “When it happened, I was kind of like, ‘There you go.’

It kind of just sums up what we do best,” Davis said with a smile. “It was exciting that we got this win. We didn’t make it easy on ourselves, but it was a good win.”

Though an eight-point KU lead with 54 seconds left was trimmed to 68-65 with 00:35 to go, the Jayhawks’ Monica Engelman, CeCe Harper and Markisha Hawkins knocked down six straight free throws on one-and-one opportunities to secure the victory.

— Kansas University senior forward Carolyn Davis on the KU women’s team’s 74-67 Senior Night victory against TCU Davis scored 27 points — tying for her second-highest total this season — and Goodrich added 12 assists as the two seniors displayed for one more night what had made them so successful in their KU careers.

That included one final signature play in the final minute.

“I’m glad it went through and she finished it and everything,” Goodrich said. “It’s

KANSAS SENIOR GUARD MONICA ENGELMAN IS FOULED ON A SHOT against the TCU defense on Tuesday at Allen Fieldhouse. just about having fun. When I do that, I have fun.”

KU’s third senior Engelman also came through with clutch shooting when the Jayhawks needed it.

The 5-foot-11 guard, who started the season just 4-for28 on three-pointers, swished two consecutive threes late in the second half to turn a 57-54 deficit into a 60-57 KU lead.

“I’m back to where I need

to be,” Engelman said. “Just knocking down threes — it’s just all about playing basketball and doing what you know how to do.”

The made shots also started an extended 14-3 run for KU, as the Jayhawks made a defensive change to trap TCU point guard Zahna Medley when she curled around ball screens.

“You have to just throw different things at her,” Engleman said. “ ... We started getting success from that, so we stuck with it.”

KU received a boost from Hawkins in her first career start. The junior guard scored a career-high 14 points on 4-for-10 shooting with four rebounds and two assists in 33 minutes.

Before Tuesday, Hawkins had played just 36 combined minutes in the entire conference season.

The victory keeps KU’s hopes alive for a potential NCAA Tournament berth.

CLASS 6A STATE BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

Firebirds feeling confident against undefeated BVNW

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Ever since Free State High’s boys basketball team won a sub-state championship Friday at Olathe East, the Firebirds have heard the same couple of lines.

WIN OR It usually goes something GO HOME like: “Congratulations! But, what about this undefeated Blue Valley Northwest team Who: Free you’ll have to play at state?”

State (11-11) Junior FSHS forward vs. Blue ValKhadre Lane understands ley Northwhy the team’s well-wishers west (22-0) When: 3 p.m. hear about the Huskies’ 22-0 record and immediately intoday quire about the powerhouse Where: program.

Koch Arena, “We hear that, too, but Wichita we’ve been preparing in practice and believe that we TV: Metro can win,” Lane said, “and Sports that’s the only way that we (Knology Cable ch. 37) have a chance.”

Believers and doubters alike will find out today — 3 p.m. tip at Wichita’s Koch Arena, broadcast live on Metro Sports — whether the No. 8 seed Firebirds (11-11) have what it takes to upset No. 1 seed BVNW, making its fourth straight Class 6A state tournament appearance.

As Free State coach Chuck Law and his assistants have inspected video footage of the Huskies (state runnersup to Wichita Heights in 2010, 2011 and 2012), what they found was a how-to clinic on perimeter offense, led by junior point guard Clayton Custer, an Iowa State University commit.

Law said the Huskies play three or four other guards with their four-star stud Custer, who averages more than 20 points a game, and everyone who touches the

ball is prepared to attack the defense’s weakness.

“People overrate size and underestimate the importance of guys that can all dribble, pass, catch and shoot,” Law said. “Because if you put five guys out there that can do those things, you can beat anybody. You can play with anybody, irrespective of how disadvantaged you might be size-wise.”

Junior FSHS guard Keith Loneker said the Firebirds think they can match up with BVNW because they are a perimeter-oriented team, as well. When Huskies guards ignite their drive-and-kick offense, Loneker said Free State has athletic defenders such as Blake Winslow, Reshawn Caro and Lane to either cut them off or step in as help defenders.

“It’s gonna take a whole

team effort, for sure,” Loneker added.

The Firebirds’ defense — beginning with starters Cole Moreano, Logan Bannister, Caro, Loneker and Lane, and continuing with backups Cody Scott, Kyle McFarland, Weston Hack, Innocent Anavberokhai and Winslow — has carried them to state.

Loneker said their commitment to “D” began in practices as they started to get more physical with each other. “Don’t take it personal,” Loneker said of the approach.

“This is how we get better.”

Caro said the players thrived once Law began turning more often to manto-man defense, and FSHS is more likely to use bumps and muscle away from the ball than other teams.

Royalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Chen, Hochevar effective SURPRISE, ARIZ. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Bruce Chen and Luke Hochevar are competing for the final spot in the Royalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rotation. The loser might not be with the organization for too long.

A multitude of scouts watched the pair each throw three sharp innings in an 8-2 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday as the Royals remained undefeated.

The Royals are listening to trade offers for both.

Chen allowed one run on two hits and walked none. Hochevar pitched three scoreless innings, but yielded three hits and walked one. He finished strong, striking out the final three batters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even though we are fighting for a fifth spot in spring training, I think it is an all-year battle for the fifth spot,â&#x20AC;? Chen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can win it, but then you can lose it in a matter of two months. In reality, whoever wins it, wins it, but it is going like to be an audition every time that person goes out.â&#x20AC;?

Chen, a 35-year-old left-hander, has led the club in victories the past three seasons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like I can help the team the most by being in the starting rotation,â&#x20AC;? Chen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But if Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not in the starting rotation, that means there are five guys better than me. If there are five guys better than me, then I better do something. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m getting paid a lot of money to be in the bullpen, so I better do something good.â&#x20AC;?

Chen will make $4.5 million this year, while Hochevar will earn $4.56 million. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am working toward where I want to be, make sure my arm is strong enough to go deep in the game,â&#x20AC;? Chen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to make sure Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m using my fastball on both sides of the plate and keep the ball down. So far itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been going well, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a matter of one time or two times, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a matter being able to do it consistently and being confident that you can do it for seven, eight innings. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the main goal.â&#x20AC;?

Hochevar said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt a lot better with my fastball execution. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m ready to step it up to my next set of pitch count.â&#x20AC;?

Catcher Brett Hayes homered to lead off the second and Brandon Wood hit a two-run shot in the eighth as the 10-0-1 Roy-

Bartolo Colon did not fare so well for Oakland, allowing five runs on seven hits and throwing 48 pitches in two innings. The 39-year-old right-hander has yielded 12 hits and eight runs, six earned, in four innings in losing his first two starts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting his work in, but he obviously would like to do better than that,â&#x20AC;? said bench coach and acting manager Chip

Hale. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was some pretty hard contact. He probably missed a little bit too much over the plate. He felt good after he was done. His velocity was good. He used all of his pitches.â&#x20AC;?

Grant Green, a career .302 hitter in four minor league seasons, stroked two doubles for his third consecutive two-hit game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s swinging the bat great,â&#x20AC;?

Hale said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the same stuff we see every day in batting practice. He just hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a whole lot of opportunity to play. Since heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got the opportunity, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shown us why he had the big year last year in Triple-A offensively and the move to second base is looking good right now.â&#x20AC;?

Hiroyuki Nakajima doubled in the second inning for his first extra-base hit and scored on a John Jaso single. Nakajima, a nine-time All-Star in Japan who signed with the Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in December, also struck out in the sixth, his nine strikeout in 17 at-bats.

Big East football schools to split $100 million in breakup deal NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Big East football schools will get almost all of a $110 million pot in a deal that will allow seven departing basketball schools to keep the name Big East and start playing in their own conference next season, a person familiar with the negotiations says.

The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the separation agreement has not yet been finalized. That is likely to happen by the end of the week. The football schools will receive approximately $100 million under the agreement, most of which will go to holdover members Connecticut, South Florida and Cincinnati.

The basketball schools will receive $10 million, the Big East name and the right to play their conference tournament at Madison Square Garden.

The Big Eastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stash of cash has built up in recent years through a combination of exit fees, entry fees and money the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s members earned in the NCAA menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball tournament. Since 2011, the Big East has lost 16 schools that were either members or dropped out before playing a game.

That figure includes the seven Catholic basketball schools.

The so-called Catholic 7, which is expected to add at least two more members before it begins competition in the 2013-14 school year, is made up of Georgetown, St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Villanova, Seton Hall, Providence,

Marquette and DePaul. The new Big East has a television deal from Fox waiting for it, though it still needs to hire a commissioner and set up a league office.

Joining South Florida, Connecticut, Cincinnati and Temple, which rejoined the Big East last year for football, in the to-benamed-later conference in 2013 will be Memphis, Central Florida, SMU and Houston. East Carolina and Tulane are set to join in 2014 and Navy is scheduled to join for football in 2015.

Hack brothers team up one last time Coaches: KU FOOTBALL NOTEBOOK

————

FSHS senior Wilson, sophomore Weston savoring run to state

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Before the season began, Free State High senior Wilson Hack contemplated giving up basketball.

It had never been his favorite sport and he knew he would probably spend most games at the end of the Firebirds’ bench. If he didn’t play, he could focus on his other interests and get himself as ready as possible for FSHS golf season in the spring.

But Wilson just couldn’t turn down one final season of hoops with his younger brother, Weston.

The Hack brothers have teamed up on the hardwood since elementary school. Though Weston is two years younger, he would play up on Wilson’s recreation teams until Wilson got to junior high. Last year they played together for Free State’s junior varsity squad. As it turns out, their last run together will come in Wichita, site of the Class 6A state tournament — the Firebirds (1111) play Blue Valley Northwest (22-0) at 3 p.m. today at Koch Arena.

“I don’t know that our expectations were necessarily that we’d get to go to state this year,” Wilson admitted, “but if I get to spend another week in the gym with him, that’s just awesome. Because those chances aren’t gonna come very often in the future.”

FREE STATE SENIOR WILSON HACK, LEFT, AND BROTHER WESTON, a sophomore, get one last chance to play high school basketball together at this week’s Class 6A state tournament. The Firebirds take on Blue Valley Northwest at 3 p.m. today in Wichita.

At 5-foot-9, with a little more muscle, Wilson doesn’t play as much as Weston, a sophomore with slightly more than five inches on his older brother. Weston, as a key bench player, has appeared in all 22 games, while Wilson got to shed his warm-ups and check in to eight games.

“He’s always been real supportive,” Weston said, “and I don’t think it bothers him that much.”

Free State coach Chuck Law said Wilson’s personality makes the brothers’ situation work.

“You’re not gonna find a more unselfish kid playing basketball anywhere,

probably,” Law said. “He knows he’s not hardly ever going to play.”

Three or four years ago, Wilson said, he realized Weston had more height, skill and desire to play basketball at a high level than he did. So he truly holds no envy or grudge toward his younger sibling. Wilson sees potential in Weston, and often takes it upon himself in practice to challenge him. On Monday, as the Firebirds prepared for their firstround opponent, Weston passed the ball and tried to cut with Wilson checking him. Wilson threw all of his muscle in Weston’s path and the two shoved

BRIEFLY Kansas golfers finish in top five LAFAYETTE, LA. — Kansas University seniors Alex Gutesha and Chris Gilbert finished in the top five, and sophomore Stan Gautier tied for 17th as KU’s men’s golf team placed sixth Tuesday in the Louisiana Classics.

Kansas finished the two-day event with a threeround total of 881, (17 over par), 15 strokes behind tournament champion Illinois (866).

Gutesha took third with 69-74-70 — 213 (3 under), and Gilbert tied for fifth at 72-69-74 — 215 (1 under).

Gautier logged his second consecutive finish in the top-20 as he tied for 17th with a three-day score of 71-75-73 — 219 (3 over).

“There was a little better weather, a lot less wind today so some teams took advantage of that,” KU coach Jamie Bermel said.

“We did not.”

KU sophomore Dylan McClure tied for 71st at 80-77-78 — 235 (19 over), and freshman Jackson Foth tied for 79th with a 85-76-82 — 243 (27 over).

The Jayhawks’ next action will be March 21-23 at the Desert Shootout in Goodyear, Ariz.

KU bowling heads to Las Vegas The Kansas University bowling team will be participating in one of the four intercollegiate team championship sectionals from Thursday through Monday, March 11, in Las Vegas. The top four squads in each 20-

back and forth. All in a day’s work for the senior leader.

“I come in here and we get into it sometimes during practice,” Wilson said, “but I’m trying to make him better, because he’s got two more years left.”

The two get along so well at home, rarely fighting or arguing, that they can laugh about their practice spats afterward.

Said Weston: “We’re both real competitive people, and when we’re out on the court I don’t think of him as my brother. He’s just another opponent.”

The Hacks have very different roles for Free

team sectional will advance to Nationals, which will take place April 18-20 in Lincoln, Neb. KU is led by Dylan Burns, who has a 209.7 average. Jessy Bauer (205.4), Kyle Turner (193.7), Nick Campfield (191.0), Chris Flowers (185.6), Tyler Woods (180.9) and Kyle Rosberg (169.1) also will be competing for KU.

Clarification Chase Taylor’s name was inadvertently omitted from a brief about the Free State bowling team’s trip to the Class 6A state tournament. Taylor placed 22nd — just two places from earning a medal — after bowling games of 216, 234 and 168 for a 618 series.

“In a zone, you’re kind of just sitting around,” Caro said, “and in man you’re up and moving and you’re ready.”

Law knows his defenders will have to be attentive every second of their firstround game, because the Huskies play together better than most he has seen.

“They have an uncanny patience about them to get good shots,” the coach said.

The 6-foot Custer and BVNW have defeated top teams from Missouri, Minnesota and Iowa this season, and no opponent from Kansas has finished within double digits of the Huskies.

Moreano said Custer’s class used to kill its Lawrence counterparts when the players were younger, and that adds to the excite-

State. Weston, as the team’s coaches expected, has provided solid minutes off the bench and Law said he has a bright future as he gets stronger, quicker and improves his ball handling.

“It’s hard to be a sophomore and play 6A basketball anywhere,” Law said.

“They usually have to be pretty special players.”

On the other hand, Wilson has found a way, despite his limited playing time, to make an impact at practices and in the locker room — not just with his physical toughness, but also his voice. Junior forward Khadre Lance credited Wilson for keeping everyone in line: “Behindthe-scenes stuff, he’s really on it.”

That leadership should serve him well at his next stop after FSHS. Wilson wants to enter either the U.S. Air Force, Naval or Military academy.

Weston, like his brother, is glad they got one last exciting season together before life takes them in different directions. And they both are thankful their teammates helped them extend it one more week.

“I think a lot of people doubted us throughout the year, and no one really thought we’d still be playing,” Weston said.

“We always believed in ourselves, though — the whole team, including me and Wilson.”

Spread-out state tourney not hoops heaven Bear with me while I file a complaint with the Kansas State High School Activities Association.

Seven sites? Having seven state basketball tournaments in a state of three million people is inappropriate enough, but if the classification system must remain the way it is in the interest of fairness (because schools with 200 students in Class 3A, 130 students in Class 2A, 100 students in Class 1A Division I, or 50 students in Class 1A Division II apparently stand in large competitive contrast to each other), at least give those of us who care the opportunity to watch the games.

Jayhawks off to hot start

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Piles of snow may have surrounded the field and a chill may have hung in the air, but none of that stopped the Kansas University football team from getting spring practice off to a hot start on Tuesday at Memorial Stadium.

“I thought Day 1 was good energy, good focus; I thought we were running around well,” said wide receivers coach Rob Ianello.

“It was just Day 1, it was just in helmets, but I thought it was a very good start for what we’re trying to do.”

In reality, work started a couple of months back, when strength coach Scott Holsopple got ahold of the Jayhawks for offseason conditioning and, for the second year in a row, worked wonders with their bodies.

“It’s not even close,” said tight ends coach Jeff Blasko, comparing this year’s opening day with last year’s. “From the strength and conditioning aspect of it all, it’s a completely different feel and a complete transformation.”

The Jayhawks will return to practice Thursday for Day 2 of their 15-day spring session before jumping in with full pads on Saturday.

Pursuit of the turnover As they met with the media on Monday, different players talked about their goals for the upcoming season. Most emphasized team goals over personal goals, but a few discussed how the pursuit of their own goals would benefit the team. One such player was junior linebacker Ben Heeney.

“They just told us that there’s a turnover chart,” Heeney said. “And whoever gets the most turnovers throughout the spring gets a reward or something. So I guess that’s my goal, to get the most turnovers.”

KU’s defense took a major step forward in the turnover department last season but still finished just seventh in the Big 12 with 20 takeaways.

KANSAS SENIORS CAROLYN DAVIS, LEFT, ANGEL GOODRICH AND MONICA ENGELMAN (13) COLLAPSE on TCU guard Zahna Medley (14) during the second half on Tuesday at Allen Fieldhouse.

KU women CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

The Jayhawks (17-12, 8-10 Big 12) earned the No. 7 seed in the Big 12 tournament and will face TCU (9-20, 2-16) again at 8:30 p.m. Friday in Dallas.

“We knew we had to win this game,” Davis said.

“Now that we’ve won it, we’re just going to keep it rolling and get some more wins.”

Davis scored her 27 points on 9-for-12 shooting, while Engelman scored 13 of her 14 points in the second half.

Goodrich struggled with her shot, contributing just two points on 1-for-12 accuracy, but she added four steals to go with three turnovers.

The three seniors were honored at half-court during a postgame ceremony.

“They all came here and wanted to be programchangers and differencemakers,” Henrickson said.

“When they leave here, the program (will be) in better shape than when they got here. If all of us can say that about anything in our lives, that’s pretty cool.”

KANSAS JUNIOR GUARD MARKISHA HAWKINS PUTS UP A SHOT against TCU defenders Natalie Ventress (24) and Donielle Breaux (33) during the second half on Tuesday at Allen Fieldhouse.

Feeling a bit sentimental — and comfortable with his Kansas University basketball players holding a 34-point lead — Bill Self let his players look at the videoboard in lieu of listening to him during a TV time out with 7:14 left in Monday’s 79-42 rout of Texas Tech in Allen Fieldhouse.

“Our scoreboard is great. It’s kind of a pain for me. Our players want to watch it. It’s hard to get their attention,” Self, KU’s 10th-year coach, said on his Tuesday Hawk Talk radio show. “Yesterday, the seniors’ ‘Pop-Up Video’ came on. Why not let ‘em watch it? It was kind of a unique game.”

So with the Jayhawks leading, 69-35, on Senior Night, Self told seniors Elijah Johnson, Travis Releford, Jeff Withey and Kevin Young to enjoy the video instead of listening to him bark orders with the game well in hand.

“Trust me, it wouldn’t have been like that last year on Senior Night against Missouri. We didn’t care about the ‘Pop-Up Video’ last year,” Self said of KU claiming a come-from-behind overtime win over the Tigers. “Last night was a little bit different.”

Self said he enjoyed the concise three-minute speeches of each of KU’s four seniors.

“What happens is the first guy kind of screws it up and goes long,” Self said of past speeches that would last 10-15 minutes per player. “Then the next guy feels he’s got to go long. Kevin started it off ... he said what he wanted to say and everybody followed suit.

“For a 6 o’clock game, the speeches were over and fans were out of there by 8:25. I remember some nights with Wayne (Simien), Aaron (Miles), Keith (Langford), Mike (Lee) ... they’d already spoken an hour and Wayne says, ‘Get comfortable, we’re going to be here a while.’ Jordan (Juenemann) took 25 minutes to thank the janitor at the church he went to for one year growing up,” Self added with a laugh.

“I think it’s neat our fans are so respectful of the kids who represent them on a nightly basis and stick around for the speeches.”

Self asked the fans to give freshman Ben McLemore a rousing ovation.

“I didn’t do it for any reason. We don’t talk if he’s going (to NBA) or staying,” Self said. “The decision will be made after the season is over. I thought it would not be right if he makes the decision to leave — and I’m not saying he will — if the fans didn’t get the chance to recognize him one last time. I thought it was cool what our fans did (standing ovation and chant of “One More Year).”

O Three-ball: Self on whether Withey, who hit a three, would attempt any more treys.

“I think Jeff made the one he needed to make, now we need to focus on getting his butt where it belongs, close to the basket,” Self said with a laugh.

“If he’s open and feeling it, it’s OK to pull the trigger on that one. Before the game he said, ‘Coach, I may shoot a three.’ I said, ‘Shoot it.’ Sure enough, he shot it and it went in.”

Aged Rioja a perfect balance of flavors

CHICKEN TINGA IS A SPIN ON TACOS that is quick and the whole family will enjoy.

Recipes to rescue a tired home cook

By Ellise Pierce Fort Worth Star-Telegram

PARIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The funny thing about being a food writer and cookbook author is that people think since Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in the kitchen all day long, dinner must be a snap.

Right.

Thing is, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not always in the kitchen. And when I am, I may be testing appetizers or desserts all day long for something Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m working on. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get me any closer to dinner than I would be if I worked in an office. In fact, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m at a greater disadvantage because when my day is over, the last thing I want to do is cook.

But I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just untie my apron and dash out to dinner any old time I decide Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m tired of being in the kitchen. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expensive, for one thing, and going out also requires that an effort be made to spruce up oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appearance â&#x20AC;&#x201D; because let me tell you, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not all Food Network gloss and shine in my cramped little kitchen, and I usually emerge at the end of the day looking like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been to war with the oven (which I usually have, and I have the burn scars to prove it). Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m also likely to be decorated with bits of whatever Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been cooking.

All of thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to say that just like you, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m wiped out at the end of the day, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m usually trying to figure out what I can make for dinner that will minimize my kitchen time.

I have some super-easy, go-to meals â&#x20AC;&#x201D; avocado smashed on toast with a drizzle of pistachio or hazelnut oil; scrambled eggs and chevre in a tortilla, splashed with Valentina sauce; a heap of baby spinach or arugula topped with a poached egg and Parmesan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but even these get a bit boring after a while.

This year, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to mix it up. Make something new, something different, even when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m tired and I just want to take off my cowgirl boots and sit in front of the TV and watch â&#x20AC;&#x153;Downton Abbeyâ&#x20AC;? reruns.

These recipes, fortunately, do not require the sort of time that will put off marathon Maggie Smith viewing, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re like me and cannot watch just one. And no servants required, either. Less than a half-hour, almost all of these, from start to finish.

Dum dum dum dum dum â&#x20AC;Ś I can hear the open now.

Red Quinoa, Cannellini Beans And Cauliflower With Arugula Pesto Makes 4 servings 1 small head of cauliflower, florets removed About 2 tablespoons olive oil Sea salt and pepper 1 cup red quinoa Handful of wild arugula

1 cup (9.25 ounces) cannellini beans, drained and rinsed For arugula pesto: 1 clove garlic, minced 4.5 ounces wild arugula 1/3 cup walnuts, toasted 1/4 cup olive oil Sea salt and pepper 1. Preheat oven to broil and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil. Put cauliflower florets onto cookie sheet, add olive oil, salt and pepper, and toss. Place in oven and cook until florets begin to brown, about 15 minutes, then flip them and brown other sides, about 10 more minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.

2. Cook quinoa: Put 2 cups of salted water onto boil, then add quinoa, stir, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Let cook for 10 minutes, then turn off heat and let quinoa absorb the rest of the water. Let cool.

3. Make arugula pesto: Put garlic, arugula, walnuts, olive oil, salt and pepper in a food processor and pulse till combined.

4. To assemble the salad, put quinoa in a large bowl and add handful of arugula, beans, roasted cauliflower and a tablespoon or two of pesto. Toss and serve.

Cowgirl tip: Toss roasted veggies with leftover arugula pesto, or use it as a sandwich spread or whisked into vinaigrette.

Pasta works, too.

Spinach Stracciatella Soup Makes 2 to 4 servings 4 cups/1 quart vegetable or chicken stock 2 cups water Sea salt and pepper 4.5 ounces baby spinach 1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for serving 2 eggs, lightly beaten Warm stock and water over medium-high heat, with salt and pepper to taste. When it comes to a simmer, add spinach and Parmesan and let cook until the spinach wilts, 5 to 10 minutes. Slowly add beaten eggs, briskly stirring so theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be streaky throughout and not cook in clumps.

Taste for seasonings and serve right away with more Parmesan.

Chopped Steaks With Grilled Radicchio Makes 2 servings 1 clove garlic, minced 1 teaspoon grainy mustard 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar Sea salt and pepper 4 to 5 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 2 chopped steaks, at room temperature 1 to 2 heads of radicchio (depending on the size; I used 1), cut into fourths About 2 ounces Roquefort, crumbled 1. Make the vinaigrette: Put garlic, mustard and vinegar in a jam jar along with a pinch of sea salt and pepper, and give it a shake.

After 5 to 10 minutes, add olive oil and shake again.

Taste.

3. Put vegetable oil in a cast-iron skillet, making sure itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evenly coated, and turn the heat to high.

Salt and pepper the steaks, then add them to the skillet and cook 2 to 3 minutes each side, depending on how done you like them.

Remove steaks and cover with foil.

4. Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel and add a tiny bit of olive oil â&#x20AC;&#x201D; just enough to moisten the bottom. Turn the heat to medium-high. Add radicchio wedges and cook for about 30 seconds on each side.

5. Put the radicchio on two plates and top with steaks. Drizzle with vinaigrette and sprinkle with Roquefort.

Chicken Tinga Tacos Makes 4 to 6 servings 1 pound chicken tenders 1 celery stalk, halved 1 carrot, halved A couple sprigs of parsley About 10 peppercorns Olive oil 1/2 of an onion, diced 3 to 4 cloves garlic, minced 2 chipotles in adobo, finely chopped 2/3 cup canned corn, rinsed and drained 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced fire-roasted tomatoes Sea salt and pepper (if needed) 6 to 8 tortillas (corn or flour) 1 avocado, chopped Handful of chopped cilantro 3 to 4 tablespoons goat cheese, crumbled 2 to 3 limes, cut into wedges 1. Poach chicken tenders: Put chicken, celery, carrot, parsley and peppercorns in a saucepan. Cover with water, put on the stove over medium-high heat, and cover. When it boils, reduce heat to a simmer and set the timer for 10 minutes.

Let the chicken cool in the pot if you have time; if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, shred chicken and proceed to the next step.

2. Drizzle a little olive oil in a large skillet, add onion and garlic and turn heat to medium-low. Cook just until the onion is translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add chipotles, corn and black beans and stir. Add shredded chicken and let mixture cook 10 to 15 minutes. Add tomatoes and let it go for 5 minutes more. Taste and add seasonings if necessary. Serve on warmed tortillas with avocado, cilantro, goat cheese and limes.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice when you can drink a Rioja with a little age on it. I just tried the 2005 Reserve from Marques de Murrieta.

That extra bit of time in the bottle makes for such delicious drinking.

A blend of 84 percent Tempranillo with 13 percent Garnacha and 3 percent Mazuelo, the wine tastes of earth and red plums, with tannins and acidity in perfect balance. And $25 or less for an 8-year-old wine is a wonderful buy, especially for one that is so foodfriendly.

Break out some jamon or salumi as part of a cured meats spread.

Serve it with paella or an earthy dish of beans braised with lamb shanks or sausages.

China destroys Ikea cake, chocolate

BEIJING â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Chinese authorities say they have destroyed nearly two tons of chocolate cake imported

by Swedenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ikea for violating food quality standards.

The Shanghai quarantine bureau said this week that Kraft cream cheese and 2.7 tons of Nestle chocolate bars also were among dozens of imported products destroyed in its latest round of quality inspections.

Chinese authorities have stepped up food inspections in recent years after a series of scandals over fake or shoddy goods.

The Shanghai quarantine bureau said it destroyed 4,100 pounds of chocolate almond cake imported

by Ikea that it said had excessive levels of coliform bacteria.

Region: Rioja, Spain The Nestle chocolate Price: About $24 contained too much sorStyle: Rich and earthy What it goes with: Ham bitol, a sweetener that in and other cured meats, large amounts can cause roasts, braised beans with bowel problems, the agency said in a statement. sausages

ASIAN STEAMED CLAMS OR MUSSELS WITH BROCCOLI RABE is quick, easy, nutritious, delicious and satisfying.

Steamed clams deliver big flavor and lean protein

By Sara Moulton Associated Press

I’d love to claim that this wonderful recipe required hours of arduous research and testing (not to mention the expert application of all of my hard-won culinary skills) before I was able to settle on the exact proportions of its ideal ingredients. But I’d be lying. In truth, I had almost nothing to do with it. The clams did it.

Certain ingredients — including clams, mussels, rack of lamb, skirt steak and dark chocolate — make meals delicious with very little effort on your part. Really, you’d have to be an idiot to screw them up. Clams and mussels are especially generous, delivering a one-two punch of taste thrills: the succulent bivalves themselves and the deeply flavorful juices that stream out of them when they’re cooked.

My favorite way to

mess with clams is to steam them, as in this recipe. You toss all the ingredients into a pot, pile on the clams, put on the lid, crank up the heat, and presto! Ten minutes later the dish is done. The only problem is that the clam liquor at the bottom of the pot is so tasty that I’m forced to sop it up with slice after slice of bread.

That’s why I decided to bulk up this dish with broccoli rabe, a healthy and savory vegetable that absorbs some of the clam liquor as it cooks (though the clam liquor that remains still cries out for at least a slice or two of toasted countrystyle bread).

As a way of blunting the vegetable’s slightly bitter edge, your first step with broccoli rabe is to blanch it. Cut off the tough ends of the stems, then boil it all in a large pot of salted water for two minutes. Next, drain it and transfer it to a bowl of ice water to

stop the cooking and set the color. Finally, chop it crosswise into pieces about 1/2-inch thick. It’s just much easier to eat that way. The garlic, chili sauce, ginger and sesame oil in the broth are complements strong enough to stand up to the robustness of the broccoli rabe.

After insisting above that there’s no way to screw up cooking with clams, I’ve got to emphasize one crucial step, a step to ensure that the little guys turn out tender. You need to remove each clam from the pot as it opens up. The first ones will be good to go after four or five minutes. The last clam might stay clammed up until five or six minutes later, by which time the first clams — if you’d left them in — would be horribly tough.

That’s it. Quick, easy, nutritious, delicious and satisfying. Try it and see if you don’t end up happier than a clam.

Grapefruit not just for Beef breakfast anymore

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8B

Spiced Grapefruit Compote

Home-Cured Corned Beef

I love a good Honey Crisp or Macintosh as much as the next person. But I’ve been eating and cooking with apples since September, and even the biggest fan of the Fuji needs something different at this point in the year. Luckily, the markets are bursting with refreshing and versatile grapefruits.

If you thought that grapefruit was just for breakfast, you’ve been missing a big kitchen opportunity. There’s still time to make a grapefruit and avocado salad, a spicy grapefruit and mint chutney or a grapefruit custard tart before the season ends in early spring.

Because of its flavor profile — tart and sweet at the same time — grapefruit can be used in both sweet and savory dishes.

A salad of grapefruit and fennel in a mustard vinaigrette is a lively way to start a late winter meal. Or arrange grapefruit sections and thinly sliced prosciutto over baby arugula and drizzle with olive oil.

Fish or chicken tacos can be garnished with a grapefruit salsa. A pound cake made with grapefruit juice and zest is a nice change from plain old lemon.

To section a grapefruit while removing the tough membranes, follow these steps: With a sharp chef’s knife, cut off the stem and blossom ends and stand the grapefruit on one of these cut ends. Cut away the rind and bitter pith. Slice into one section along the edge of one membrane. Cut along the other side of the section near the opposite membrane and remove the section. Repeat with the remaining sections.

3/4 cups water 3/4 cup sugar 1 cinnamon stick 1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced 4 pink grapefruits, peeled and sectioned 1. Combine water, sugar, cinnamon stick and ginger in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar.

Reduce heat to low and simmer until thickened, 25 to 30 minutes.

2. Place grapefruit sections in a large mixing bowl.

Pour syrup through a strainer and into the bowl. Serve immediately over pancakes, waffles, hot cereal or ice cream. Or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days and rewarm briefly (don’t boil) in a microwave before serving. Makes 6 servings.

2 cups kosher salt 1/2 cup sugar 5 teaspoons pink salt (optional) 3 cloves minced garlic 4 tablespoons pickling spice, divided in half 5-pound beef brisket Vegetables for serving In a large pot, mix together 1 gallon of water

Heat the brine to a simmer, and stir until the salt and sugar dissolve.

Let the brine cool to room temperature, and then chill in the fridge until it’s below 40 degrees.

Once it’s done, slice it up and dig in!

ou may have noticed from reading this blog, but I really, really like Brussels sprouts.

And though I usually like to roast or steam them, I thought it was about time to try them a new way (rather than just pairing them with new foods when I get bored).

I was feeling a bit daring last week, and decided to pair a heavy summer favorite with this winter favorite of mine.

The results were spectacular and super yummy.

Everyone, I’d like you to meet the my special winter fajitas: Spiced Pepper and Brussels’ Sprout Fajitas.

Sounds weird, tastes great. If you’re not a Brussels sprout fan (and I know probably half of you aren’t), you can try it with fresh broccoli or cauliflower. You’d get nutrients from the same family, and a slightly more mild flavor.

ROASTED CABBAGE, HOME-CURED CORNED BEEF AND ROASTED POTATOES WITH THYME is a dish thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to make if you can plan ahead.

Home-curing meats easy to do but requires planning

By Meryl Carver-Allmond Special to the Journal-World

While the dish is more Irish-American than truly Irish, for St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not much that beats a plate of corned beef and cabbage.

One thing that makes it better, though, is making your own corned beef.

At a recent â&#x20AC;&#x153;meatingâ&#x20AC;? of the Lawrence Charcuterie Club, Dale Wheeler went through the steps to make home-cured corned beef.

First, Wheeler noted that there is no corn involved at all. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cornâ&#x20AC;? is merely a reference to the

size of the salt pellets â&#x20AC;&#x201D; about the size of a grain of corn â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that were historically used to preserve the meat.

Second, you can â&#x20AC;&#x153;cornâ&#x20AC;? just about any kind of meat. Indeed, I happily sampled corned beef, corned lamb and corned venison.

Despite being basically made in the same way, each had a slightly different texture and flavor.

And making corned meat is crazy easy. Essentially, you buy a big piece of meat, brine it for several days, then boil it until itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cooked.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no magic involved, just a little planning ahead.

After the lesson, I was eager to try making corned beef for myself.

With Wheelerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recipe in hand (which is a modified version of the recipe in the book â&#x20AC;&#x153;Charcuterie: The Craft of Salting, Smoking, and Curingâ&#x20AC;? by Michael Ruhlman), I went shopping.

You probably have most of what you need to make corned beef in your pantry, but one thing that was a bit difficult to track down was â&#x20AC;&#x153;pink salt,â&#x20AC;? or sodium nitrite.

While pink salt is optional, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what gives corned beef its bright red color.

If you have time, you can order pink salt online, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also available at Steveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Meat Market in De Soto or at Farview Farms Meat Company, just outside of Topeka.

A few additional pointers:

My brisket was 3 pounds, smaller than the recipe below suggests, so we brined it for one day less. The smaller brisket was enough for two meals for my family of three.

If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re cooking

ahead of time, store the meat in a bit of the cooking liquid to keep it moist.

(But if you forget that step, like I did, you can simply boil the meat again for a few minutes to bring it back to life again!)

You can buy pickling spice at the store, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much more aromatic if you make your own. Find a recipe on the Internet and tailor it to your liking.

The only thing to be aware of is that you prob-

ably wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to use much, if any, red pepper flake.

Traditionally, you would add vegetables â&#x20AC;&#x201D; carrots, cabbage, potatoes, onions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; toward the end of boiling your corned beef, and boil it all together in the same pot. I tend to favor roasted vegetables, so I roasted some potatoes and cabbage separately.

Creamy, hot shrimp enchiladas

I

could eat Mexican food every day. Every.

Day. Cheese, beans, sauce, spicy? Ainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t nothinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wrong with that.

But I do grow tired of the usual suspects and often look for ways to change the game. But one of my favorite things about making Mexican food for dinner is that it is usually fairly fast and easy, so I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to ruin

THE FLYING FORK

by Megan Stuke that bonus by making my Mexi dinner overly complicated.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve mentioned many times my love of shrimp, and I think Mexican food is a great vehicle for shrimp. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great because it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long to thaw and it cooks up super-fast, which makes it ideal for a dinner on the fly. So, when National Margarita Day came around Feb. 22, I pulled my trusty bag of frozen shrimp out and

set to work on a meal to accompany our required margaritas for that day. After a quick look through the fridge, I knew weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be having something in a creamy green sauce, mostly because that is the stuff I had lying around.

And who would argue with cream cheese sauce, really?

— Frustrated Dear Frustrated: A man in his 50s who still expects his parents to pay his bills and buy him toys is not a responsible adult, and we cannot promise he ever will be.

Unless you can convince him or his parents that their indulgence is not in his best interests, you will be fighting an uphill battle. Sorry.

Ghost stories: Paranormal or paranoia?

Can possessions be possessed?

Just last week, news stories spread about a segment on Pat Robertson’s “The 700 Club,” as he advised a young woman to pray over her recent thrift store purchases “to rebuke any spirits that happened to have attached themselves to those clothes.”

It makes you wonder what the Salvation Army is up to.

But Robertson’s peculiar brand of television Christianity is hardly the only source of speculation about places and things afflicted with dark spirits. “Haunted Collector” (8 p.m., Syfy) enters its third season, following expert John Zaffis as he scours the countryside to find folks terrorized by items and/or places.

One of the early segments involves a horse farm purchased

by Mary Lu Dolce Conti. Since moving in, Mary Lu’s animals have been in a state of constant agitation.

Could it be evil spirits? I have another explanation. Her farm is located in Montgomery, N.Y., the same town that used to be home to Orange County Choppers of “American Chopper” fame. You don’t have to believe in ghosts to see the neighborhood might be haunted by contrived reality television shows.

Ghost stories are always more entertaining than rational and reasonable explanations. And “Haunted Collector” airs on Syfy, formerly the Sci-Fi Channel, an outfit that at least offered an abbreviated nod to the word “fiction” in its title. The same can’t be said of Robertson’s “700 Club.”

But in associating science fiction with the delusional fantasies of “Haunted Collector,” Syfy cheapens the genre it has inherited.

Tonight’s other highlights:

Ten more semifinalists perform on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox).

Tommy and Malcolm let down their hair on “Arrow” (7 p.m., CW).

A young author of a racy novel is attacked on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” (8 p.m., NBC).

A gruff, bearded guy hunts down late night eateries on “Feed the Beast” (8 p.m., Travel).

D.B.’s granddaughter needs saving on “CSI” (9 p.m., CBS).

A train wreck claims a young victim on “Chicago Fire” (9 p.m., NBC).

Rayna and Juliette mull big changes on “Nashville” (9 p.m., ABC).

Solidarity sparks a crisis on “The Americans” (9 p.m., FX).

I’ve been clean for more than five years. However, during my druggie days, I was pregnant five times. I miscarried all of the babies due to my addiction. I am very ashamed of my past. Every day, I live with the guilt of what I did to my innocent unborn children.

In the past five years, God has blessed me with two wonderful sons, whom I love more than anything.

But how do I deal with the guilt? I have tried talking to friends and family, but I’m judged a lot. It’s eating away at me. — W. Dear W.: Please speak to someone who can be impartial about your past and help you deal with your guilt in a way that allows you to forgive yourself.

Tonight: Where your friends are.

Dear Annie: My boyfriend’s parents are truly wonderful people, but they have taught their son to rely solely on them. He is in his 50s, and they still pay his bills and give him loans, often for “toys” rather than something necessary. I am selfsufficient. I borrow money from no one, pay my bills and am on a limited budget.

I knew my boyfriend was rather self-centered before we moved in together. We discuss nothing about our household, but he talks to his parents about our finances. When they tell him to do something, he complies, even if I am against it.

This is causing problems in our relationship.

I am afraid my only option is to leave. I love him, but I feel I could never measure up to his parents, and they will keep him a little boy
