TOPEKA — Kansas officials are rethinking a decision to house prison inmates in a county jail and have moved all of them back to a state facility after four escaped, including a convicted murderer, the state Department of Corrections said Thursday.

The remaining 18 prison inmates who were held in the Ottawa County Jail have been returned to the state prison in Ellsworth, department spokesman Jeremy Barclay told The Associated Press. Overcrowding at Ellsworth had led the

CarreraMorales department to transfer inmates in January to the county jail.

The escape of four state inmates Wednesday morning from the jail in Minneapolis, a small town about 120 miles west of Topeka, also spurred debate

among state legislators about prison overcrowding and keeping inmates in county lockups.

Two inmates remained at large: Santos CarreraMorales and Eric James, both 22. Carrera-Morales was convicted of two counts of first-degree murder for a doubleslaying in 2007, while James was serving time for 2008 convictions of aggravated robbery, burglary, kidnapping and criminal damage.

“We are reassessing our jail placement in Ottawa County right now, just during this period,”

Barclay said. “This is an interim step while the investigation is taking place.”

Two of the four inmates who escaped were apprehended Wednesday.

Ottawa County Sheriff Keith Coleman said he and police quickly apprehended one escapee in Minneapolis, the town where the jail is located. Authorities said the other, Drew Wade, 21, convicted of robbery and aggravated battery, traveled in a stolen miniPlease see ESCAPE, page 2A

City not complaining about $180K for Final Four

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Here’s the rare case where 14 is greater than 180,000.

Kansas University’s 14th appearance in the men’s basketball NCAA Final Four cost the city nearly $180,000 in expenses to oversee the downtown parties that ensued — and no one at Lawrence City Hall minds a bit.

“There were costs for sure, but there was a tremendous benefit for the community,” City Manager David Corliss said.

“There is no question in my mind that the community reaps a benefit that is multiple times larger than what it costs us.”

A new report prepared by Corliss’ office found city ex-

penses related to the Final Four totaled $179,786, with overtime wages paid to police officers the largest expense.

The city is expecting tax revenues from sales made at restaurants, bars, grocery stores, T-shirt shops and elsewhere to more than offset those expenses, but such tax revenue reports from the state won’t be available for another month or more. But in 2008, when the Jayhawks won the National Championship, City Hall had a good tax collection year. The city’s drink tax revenues in 2008 jumped by

$270,000 for the year. The city’s sales tax collections increased by nearly $782,000, although it is impossible to know how much of that is directly related to Final Four-fueled spending.

Four city departments — police, fire and medical, parks and recreation and public works — incurred the bulk of expenses related to public safety and clean-up of the three large gatherings that occurred downtown following KU’s Elite Eight victory and its two games in the Final Four.

Corliss said the various duties Please see FINAL, page 2A

The Shawnee County district attorney on Thursday issued an arrest warrant for Kansas inmate Joel L. Russell, 46, in a 27-year-old sexual assault for which another man was wrongfully convicted.

Russell, who is currently serving prison time for two other sexual assaults, was identified as a suspect in the Aug. 24, 1985, rape and kidnapping of a Topeka woman following DNA testing.

The arrest warrant was for a single count of rape.

Topeka resident Joe Russell Jones originally was convicted of the 1985 crime, but was exonerated in 1992 after DNA evidence excluded him as the rapist.

Jones’ strug- Jones gles after his release were highlighted in an October Journal-World article. While reporting that story, the Journal-World discovered the evidence that exonerated Jones had been preserved by a California lab that initially performed the testing. The discovery prompted the Topeka Police Department’s Cold Case Unit to reopen the case.

“It’s a good day,” Topeka Police Chief Ronald Miller said Thursday afternoon.

“We got the right guy. He’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Now we’re going to seek justice in this case.”

In addition to the evidence in California, the Cold Case Unit found testable evidence from the case at the Kansas Bureau of Investigations.

That DNA was tested and matched Russell’s DNA profile in the Combined DNA Index System, the national DNA databank commonly referred to as CODIS. Russell was convicted in 1986 for a string of assaults in the Topeka area that had similarities to the crime for which Jones was wrongfully convicted. In three crimes in November and December of 1985, Russell threatened women with a knife, as in Jones’ case. One of the incidents also occurred at the Bare Essentials nightclub at 916 Kansas Ave., the same location from which the victim Please see WARRANT, page 2A

In 1992, no DNA databank existed for the information to be enter into, and the evidence had not been retested until recently.

Jones has been in contact with police, receiving updates on developments in the case.

Notified of the news Thursday, Jones said, “I’m really pleased. I’m going to treasure it for a while.”

Suspects sought in armed robbery Lawrence police are looking for three suspects after a man was robbed at gunpoint Thursday afternoon after cashing a check near 23rd and Iowa streets.

Sgt. Trent McKinley said the victim alleged the robbery occurred about 1:45 p.m. after he left Check ’n Go, 2540 Iowa.

Police were called about 1:50 p.m. by the victim at a phone in the 2300 block of Iowa Street. The robbery did not occur inside the business.

McKinley said the man was acquainted with the three suspects and got into a vehicle, described as a white Ford Explorer, after he cashed the check. The men then used a handgun to rob the man, and they let him out of the vehicle in the area.

McKinley said police were looking for three black males associated with the vehicle. Initially one suspect was described as being heavyset and wearing a gray shirt, and another suspect was said to be skinnier wearing a plaid shirt.

No injuries were reported. Police did not release the amount of money taken.

“Anyone who had been in that area and seen any of this, we would encourage them to call us and let us know what they saw,” McKinley said.

McKinley said anyone with information could call the department at 785-832-7650 or Douglas County Crime Stoppers at 785-843-TIPS (8477).

Callers may remain anonymous.

KDOT honors two local road safety advocates

By George Diepenbrock gdiepenbrock@ljworld.com

The Kansas Department of Transportation has honored two Douglas County residents who have worked in different ways to try to make Kansas roads safer.

KDOT Wednesday afternoon gave 2012 PeopleSaving-People Awards to Eudora resident Ali Shutt, for her advocacy of Kansas Highway 10 safety after her son died in a crash last year, and to Lawrence resident Greg Benefiel, an assistant Douglas County district attorney who prosecutes DUI cases.

Shutt worked tirelessly and gained support from others advocating for cables to be installed in the median on K-10. Last November, after a group studied the issue KDOT agreed to install cables later this year along a twomile stretch outside Eudora and another stretch farther east in Johnson County, as part of a pilot project.

The Eudora stretch includes the place where 5-year-old Cainan Shutt was killed when another vehicle crossed over and struck the minivan he was riding in. Things were often tense between Shutt and KDOT leaders at meetings and press conferences after the April 16, 2011, crash.

But they have since de-

about 240 miles to North Platte, Neb., where, police said, he turned himself in at a Walmart store.

Easing overflow The department said that as of Wednesday, it housed 88 male inmates in four county jails under contracts paying the counties an average of $40 a day per inmate. The state had another nine inmates who are nearing their release from prison in a work program in Johnson County.

County lockups apply to the state but must pass an inspection that includes a review of training and facilities. An Ottawa County website said its jail can house 60 offenders and opened in 1996, listing eight corrections officers on its staff.

Coleman told Associated Press Radio the inmates used homemade knives to overpower two guards, get into the jail’s control room and unlock doors. He said the four had been in the same area of the jail for less than a week before the escape.

“They didn’t have a lot of time to plan,” he said.

“We have different rooms in the facility, and they weren’t all together for a very long time.”

Sending inmates to Ot-

ties of managing the large crowds were a significant undertaking for many city employees.

“I very much appreciate their extra hours of work,” Corliss said. “While some may not particularly look forward to the after-hours work, they did it with smiles on their faces because they recognized it was a good time for Lawrence.”

Here’s a look at several expenses:

Personnel costs: $147,772 in additional wages. Of that, $111,218 was paid to police officers who worked additional shifts. Fire and

“

I never thought I would be in a place where I would be accepting an award for something like this.

I’m proud of what we’ve all done, my family and the community.”

— Ali Shutt, mother of 5-year-old Cainan Shutt, who was killed in a median crossover accident on Kansas Highway 10 veloped more of a partnership. Ali and her husband, Tommy Shutt, now lead a group that will clean up that section of the highway three times a year.

“A lot of it had to do with how supportive the communities along K-10 were,” said Shutt, whose daughter, Courtlynn, 2, survived the crash and has made a full recovery. “I never thought I would be in a place where I would be accepting an award for something like this. I’m proud of what we’ve all done, my family and the community.”

Benefiel, under District Attorney Charles Branson in 2010, helped institute a system in Douglas County for officers to begin obtaining search warrants approved by judges for blood tests to be taken of all suspected impaired

drivers who refuse to consent to testing.

Benefiel, a former volunteer emergency medical technician in Douglas County, said the blood samples result in valuable evidence for prosecutors.

Officers seek several DUI search warrants per week.

He said it’s important to convict drunken drivers so they can benefit from treatment.

“It’s very difficult for someone to avoid responsibility when we’ve obtained that evidence,” Benefiel said.

Now other counties are following suit as well.

According to KDOT, the number of alcohol-related traffic fatalities dropped from 138 in 2010 to 76 in 2011, but Benefiel hopes to see that plummet one day to zero.

“Until we get down to where we don’t have crashes that involve impaired drivers, there will continue to be work to be done,” Benefiel said.

Shutt and Benefiel received the awards as part of the 18th annual Kansas Transportation Safety Conference along with James Brewer, a KDOT engineering manager and 45year veteran of the office, and Topeka police Sgt. Don O’Dell, for his leadership on traffic enforcement.

tawa County allowed the state to keep the population at the Ellsworth prison, about 50 miles to the southwest, below its capacity of 818 inmates. As of Wednesday, the state had 8,660 male inmates, exceeding its bed space by 218, or 2.6 percent.

“It’s time for a dedicated discussion about the needs of public safety and what it costs to run a system,” Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said in an interview.

The prison system’s budget has declined in recent years as the state has faced financial problems. The current budget for the department and its prisons is about $274 million, down from $293 million four years earlier.

But lawmakers are considering proposals to increase prison space. The Department of Corrections wants to buy a boys’ home in Ellsworth and convert it into minimumsecurity prison space for 95 inmates.

Gov. Sam Brownback has proposed reopening corrections camps in southeast Kansas that closed two years ago and converting them to housing for 262 geriatric inmates.

Both proposals would allow the state to shuffle relatively low-risk offenders out of other space, opening up those beds.

medical employees received $25,782, although about $12,000 of that will be reimbursed by Kansas University to compensate the city for staffing the watch parties at Allen Fieldhouse. Parks and recreation wages totaled an extra $5,874, while public works checked in at $4,898.

KU business school honors 2 distinguished alumni

By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

The Kansas University School of Business is honoring two of its graduates who have gone on to successful business careers with the 2012 Distinguished Alumni Award.

David Booth, an Austin, Texas, resident who founded Dimensional Fund Advisors in 1981, and David Murfin, president of the Wichita-based Murfin Drilling Co., received

the recognition Thursday.

Booth, who earned a bachelor’s degree in economics in 1968 and a master’s in business in 1969 from KU, purchased James Naismith’s original 13 rules of basketball in 2010 for $4.3 million and later donated the rules to KU. In an interview on Thursday, Booth said the rules, which are on display in Austin, are likely headed for an expanded Booth Family Hall of Ath-

letics on the second floor of Allen Fieldhouse.

He said he outbid a friend (who cost him some money, he added), who would have sent the rules to Duke.

“I think people here are happier that they’re coming here rather than Duke,” Booth said.

He said he didn’t have a “magic bullet” for courses students should take to be successful in business.

Please see ALUMNI, page 4A

The dean of Kansas University’s School of Engineering will leave KU to become the provost and executive vice chancellor at Louisiana State University.

Stuart Bell has been dean since 2002.

A national search will be conducted to fill the spot. And Jeff Vitter, KU’s provost, will consult with engineering faculty, students and staff before naming an interim dean.

“I’ve had an amazing opportunity to work with some brilliant, hardworking colleagues during the past 10 Bell years,” Bell said in a written statement.

“Even though I’m looking forward to new challenges at LSU, I know I’m leaving a wonderful institution with faculty, staff, students and alumni who are nothing short of inspiring.”

Bell has helped attract major gifts, including a $20 million donation from Madison “Al” and Lila Self and a $32 million estate gift from the late Charles and Mary Jane Spahr in 2011.

Eaton Hall was constructed during his tenure, and construction is ongoing on a research building that will open later this year. Undergraduate enrollments at the school also are at a 29-year high.

Bell will begin in his new position Aug. 2.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SOPHOMORE Jen Rosacker, of Topeka, a coordinator for MILK (Mentors in the Lives of Kids), laughs as Emma, 5, has a little trouble with tape stuck to her fingers during the Music Madness event April 6 in the Kansas Union Ballroom.

Volunteer devoted to making big difference in lives of children Editor’s note: This is the second of three profiles of volunteers who were honored Tuesday as part of the United Way Roger Hill Volunteer Center’s annual Celebration of Volunteers.

By Micki Chestnut

She may not have a cool invisible airplane like Wonder Woman or be able to leap over tall buildings like Superman, but Jen Rosacker is determined to be a superhero.

This plucky Kansas University sophomore from Topeka is taking to heart the motto for a volunteer organization she helps coordinate: Be a Child’s Superhero.

Mentors in the Lives of Kids (MILK), a program of the KU Center for Community Outreach, connects KU student volunteers with children served through Boys & Girls Club of Lawrence. MILK’s 30 student-volunteers plan parties and events for the children. They also visit Boys and Girls Club after-school programs to help kids with homework or just hang out, giving the kindergarten through fifth grade students some oneon-one attention.

Kenton Holder, assistant director of operations for Boys and Girls Club, has been so impressed

by MILK’s work that he selected the group as his agency’s Volunteer of the Year for direct service, honoring them during Tuesday’s United Way Roger Hill Volunteer Center’s annual Celebration of Volunteers. MILK was one of more than 65 individuals and four groups to be applauded during the volunteer recognition event.

As co-coordinator for MILK, along with Michael Weinberger, a sophomore from Scottsdale, Ariz., Rosacker has taken big steps toward achieving superhero status in the lives of hundreds of kids.

On April 6, MILK hosted Music Madness, inviting a few hundred Boys and Girls Club kids to KU to learn about recycling and develop a deeper appreciation for music by making musical instruments out of recycled materials.

MILK collaborated with two additional programs for the event: CREATE, which works with local students on arts projects, and Music Mentors, Please see VOLUNTEER , page 4A

KDHE develops program for medication disposal

TOPEKA — Kansas residents will be able to return their expired or unused medication to pharmacies for disposal under a policy change announced Thursday that health officials hope will prevent the drugs from being accidentally ingested or flushed down the toilet.

Dr. Robert Moser, secretary of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said that changes in agency policy interpretation will allow for establishing medication collection centers in such places as pharmacies and law enforcement stations. Or, they can have the pills picked up as hazardous waste, similar to the way some people dispose of paint cans.

which helps kids develop as musicians.

In addition, during the holidays MILK threw its sixth annual holiday party for hundreds of children in kindergarten through second grade.

“Every year they put together a party for kids to come and celebrate the holidays by decorating cookies, taking pictures with Santa, playing different games and setting up booths that allow kids to experience how different cultures celebrate the holidays,” says Holder. “They plan everything, get volunteers and show up willing to hang out with kids in a safe environment.”

“It’s kind of chaotic, but you can tell it’s totally worth it: All the kids leave with a big smile on their faces,” Rosacker says.

Rosacker knows that serving as a volunteer for MILK is giving her much more than a good feeling inside. It’s helping her develop skills she will use later on the job.

“Michael and I have both grown in the leadership department,” she said. “We had to organize the events, gather all the volunteers and plan the thing. When you plan an event for 700 kids, who wants to let a kid down?”

After graduation, Rosacker, who is pursuing a social culture anthropology major and a Latin American studies minor, wants to work as an activist. Mentoring kids through MILK, she say, “is one step to my dream.”

hospitals, but lacked the authority to accept them back from customers once they left the pharmacy.

“They understand that medications are powerful and that should be discarded with care,” she said. “The Kansas pharmacists they do want to provide this service to the customers. They view this as a public service to the community.”

Moser said allowing pharmacies, law enforcement and household hazardous waste centers to collect and safely dispose of the medication will reduce the number of accidental poisonings of children. The non-narcotic medication will be taken by pharmacists and placed in secure containers behind the counter and kept for proper disposal.

The program also will prevent contamination of water supplies that can occur when the medications are flushed or poured into municipal sewer systems.

“Most business school students have successful careers, but most people who have successful careers aren’t business school students,” Booth said.

Being imaginative is important, he said. His fund became known for applying new ideas, he said, but many were already in the public domain.

Today, when he gets a break from running Dimensional Fund Advisors, Booth is working on the Bella Oaks Vineyard he purchased 18 months ago in Rutherford, Calif., in Napa Valley.

Murfin leads the Murfin Drilling Co., which was founded in 1926 by his grandfather. Today, he also heads up other business ventures, such as John Deere Industrial Equipment dealers (the “yellow stuff,” like the big construction equipment, and not the green stuff, Murfin said).

Murfin recalled his time at KU fondly, when he was active in student government during a tumultuous time at the university, arriving in 1970, just after

the burning of the Kansas Union.

“It was a real interesting time,” Murfin said.

“You had all sorts of ideas represented back then.”

His father didn’t want him to get into the oil business; some experts then predicted the world’s oil supply would be exhausted in 20 years, Murfin said. In 1970, the price of oil was $2.35 per barrel.

Today, it’s more than $100 per barrel.

After graduating, Amoco made him the best offer, so Murfin went to work there and later joined his expanding family company.

He said efforts like carbon sequestration so far haven’t provided a workable cost-benefit analy-

sis.

If some enhanced oil recovery projects work out, it could be a different situation, he said.

“What oil has done for the last hundreds of years is provided a tremendous standard of living for people in our country,” he said. “And why people would want to turn their back on that I don’t understand.”

The business school has recognized 46 alumni with the award. Past recipients include entrepreneur Philip Anschutz, former Goldman Sachs executive Robert Kaplan and Cerner Corp. co-founder Clifford Illig.

ON THE

STREET

Final Four celebrations downtown cost the city an estimated $180,000. Do you think it was worth it?

Asked on Massachusetts Street

See story, page 1A

Aaron Ruens, teacher, Lawrence “Yes, because I imagine (the celebrations) also brought a lot of money into downtown.”

Emily Limpis, insurance adjuster, Lawrence “I’m not sure, but the city didn’t really have a choice. I’m glad the mess was picked up.”

ON THE RECORD

LJWORLD.COM/BLOTTER

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT • Douglas County Sheriff’s officers were still working to identify a man whose body was found Tuesday morning near railroad tracks north of Lawrence. Sgt. Steve Lewis, a sheriff’s spokesman, said Thursday investigators were also working with Union Pacific Railroad officials to try to determine possibly when the man was struck by a train. Lewis said investigators currently do not suspect foul play.

• A 34-year-old Lawrence man was arrested on several charges early Wednesday after he ran from police who had responded to a disturbance around 2:15 a.m. in the 400 block of Maine Street, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman.

The man, Shane Michael Williams, was eventually apprehended, but as he was being transported to the Douglas County Jail, he caused $500 in damage to a metal bracket on the back door of the prisoner transport van and the lens on the video monitoring system in the vehicle, McKinley said. Williams was charged in municipal court with criminal damage, consuming alcohol in public and interference with duties of an officer, according to jail records. He was also served Thursday with eight failure to appear warrants in municipal court cases.

• An 80-year-old Lawrence woman reported she was scammed out of a $7,033 by a person who alleged he was her grandson and needed the money for medical expenses in Spain.

The woman reported to Lawrence police Wednesday the theft occurred over a two-day period beginning April 13 when she received a call. The person claiming to be her grandson said he had suffered an accident in Spain and asked for money to be

wired without notifying any other family members, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a police spokesman.

McKinley said also during the calls a person claimed to be with the American embassy in Spain. McKinley said it was a common scam, and he said officers advise people to always check with other family members, their bank or even the police to verify information before wiring money overseas.

“These scams are complex, and so they can sound extremely convincing,” McKinley said. “But any one of a number of interactions will put a stop to things.”

• One person was taken to the hospital with facial injuries after a fight reported before 2 a.m. in the 1000 block of Ohio Street.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman, said officers responded to a call about two suspects battering one victim. The victim was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, he said. No one had been booked into jail in connection with the case as of 10:30 a.m. Thursday.

• Around 1:30 a.m.

Thursday, police and medics responded to an accident near University and Crestline drives. Lawrence police spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said a vehicle had struck a parked car in the area. The passenger was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for treatment for a fractured clavicle and a laceration to the forehead, and the driver was arrested, McKinley said.

According to jail records, the driver, Michael Thomas Wright, 23, of Lawrence, was booked into jail on one count of DUI and no proof of insurance. He posted $600 bond and was given notice to appear May 2 on the charges in Lawrence Municipal Court.

New proposed Keystone XL pipeline route unveiled

By Grant Schulte Associated Press

Nebraska’s groundwaterrich Sandhills.

Nebraska lawmakers passed a bill earlier this month authorizing the state Department of Environmental Quality to review possible routes through the state and hold at least one public hearing on its evaluation. Its findings would then be added to a federal environmental review, if the company reapplies for a project permit.

Environmentalists say the pipeline still threatens Nebraska’s water and wildlife, and they dispute company claims that it will create tens of thousands of U.S. jobs and reduce the nation’s dependence on oil from hostile foreign nations.

The review is expected to cost as much as $2 million. The state has spent roughly $153,000 since November but stopped the analysis after the permit was denied.

Jane Kleeb, executive

director of the group Bold Nebraska, said the proposed corridors still cross the Sandhills and the Ogallala aquifer, a groundwater supply that lies beneath Nebraska and parts of seven other states.

“All of the routes are unacceptable and show once again we cannot trust TransCanada,” Kleeb said.

TransCanada spokesman Shawn Howard said the new corridor proposals avoid the Sandhills, as they were identified by the state.

“Once again, this process is back in the hands of Nebraskans, who overwhelmingly support the safe construction and operation of this critical North American energy infrastructure project,” he said.

Opponents say the project should be reviewed by the state’s Public Service Commission, an independently elected group that regulates utilities.

LINCOLN, NEB. — Officials unveiled a new preferred route Thursday for the Nebraska portion of the stalled Keystone XL oil pipeline that avoids the state’s groundwater-rich Sandhills region.

The proposed route would veer east around the Sandhills before looping back to the original route. Developer TransCanada has said the reroute adds about 100 miles to the original 1,700-mile project that would carry oil from Canada to the Gulf Coast.

The company submitted the proposal after Gov. Dave Heineman allowed state officials to proceed with an environmental review. The review stalled in January when the Obama administration rejected a federal permit for the pipeline.

Administration officials said they didn’t have time to review the project before a congressional deadline and cited uncertainty 2012 Red Shoe Walk and 5K certified and chip timed about the Nebraska route.

Q:

Why doesn’t KU host first-round NCAA Tournament games at Allen Fieldhouse?

A:

Cathlyn Unruh, sales, Lawrence “Absolutely. I’m new to Lawrence and I came down and enjoyed it.”

Tom Keegan, Journal-World sports editor, offers this answer: No team can play on its home court during the men’s basketball NCAA Tournament, so there would be no point in having games at Allen Fieldhouse when the biggest draw would be playing elsewhere. It makes more sense to have the NCAA Tournament games in the Sprint Center in Kansas City,

Mo., where Kansas can play and will always sell out the building. Even without the rule prohibiting schools from playing on their home court, the Sprint Center would be the building of choice because it has more seats and therefore can generate more revenue. The restriction is not in place in the women’s basketball NCAA Tournament.

Face to face meeting

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

Starbucks to stop using ‘crushed bug’ dye NEW YORK — Starbucks Corp. says it will stop using a red dye in its drinks that is derived from crushed bugs.

The Seattle-based coffee chain said in a blog post on its website Thursday that it made the decision to reformulate its drinks after feedback from consumers prompted a “thorough” evaluation.

The company says it will

swap out cochineal extract, which is made from the juice of a tiny beetle, and instead use lycopene, a tomato-based extract.

Cochineal dye is widely used in foods and cosmetics products such as lipstick, yogurt and shampoo.

Starbucks had used the coloring in its strawberry flavored mixed drinks.

After flap, fewer registering for Komen races “

I think there’s no getting around the fact DALLAS — For years, Ka- that the controversy tie Sanchez participated in did have an impact.”

By Jamie Stengle

Associated Press

her local Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, raising money annually to honor her aunt, cousin and a male friend — all breast cancer survivors.

But when her local race rolls around this fall, she won’t be there. She already donated her entry fee to Planned Parenthood.

“Pretty much everyone I walk with has decided to do something else,” she said.

Sanchez and many other Komen supporters have abandoned the nation’s largest breastcancer charity since news emerged in late January that it had decided to stop making grants to Planned Parenthood for breast cancer-screening. Komen soon reversed that move following a three-day onslaught of criticism.

Organizers of individual Race for the Cure events — 5K runs and walks that account for most of the

— Leslie Aun, a spokeswoman for Susan G. Komen for the Cure charity’s fundraising — have seen participation decline by as much as 30 percent. Most also saw their fundraising numbers go down, although a couple of races brought in more money.

Race organizers acknowledge the effect of the Planned Parenthood debacle, which angered people on both sides of the abortion debate.

“I think there’s no getting around the fact that the controversy did have an impact,” said Leslie Aun, a spokeswoman for Susan G. Komen for the Cure. “We’re not back where we were. We know that it’s going to take a while.”

Sanchez, an occupational therapist from Denver, said she was upset when she learned that Komen

had pulled the funding.

And she wasn’t mollified when the charity reinstated it.

“I appreciate that they changed their minds, but that was still too little, too late in my opinion,” said Sanchez, who has participated in five races over the past several years.

Sanchez, who describes herself as pro-choice but not pro-abortion, said the flip-flop caused her to lose respect for Komen’s decision-making process.

“If it’s really that important to you, then make a decision and stick with it,” she said.

Only nine races have been held since the Planned Parenthood controversy, but an Associated Press survey of affiliates for the Dallas-based charity showed that a downward trend is already taking shape.

A month before a southern Arizona race, the number of people registered was about half as many as last year.

A spokeswoman for the affiliate in Tucson, Gillian Drummond, said the

GOP pushes business tax cut through divided House

By Alan Fram Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Republicans rammed an electionyear, $46 billion tax cut for most of America’s employers through the House on Thursday, ignoring a White House veto threat in a debate both parties used to show voters how they would bolster the economy.

The near party-line 235173 vote moved the bill to the Senate, where Democrats controlling the chamber are sure to ignore it. But the measure’s inevitable demise was secondary to the chance it gave each side to offer its prescriptions for creating jobs, echoing the battle that seems certain to dominate this fall’s contest for the White House

between President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney.

“This is straight-up something to help small businesses keep more of their money while they’re having so much difficulty keeping the lights on, and instead giving them the ability to grow,” said House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., the measure’s sponsor.

“This is not about mom and pop,” said Rep. Sander Levin, D-Mich. “It’s about popping the cork for wealthy taxpayers.”

Eighteen Democrats and 10 Republicans defected from their party’s positions on the bill.

The vote was the second partisan tax showdown in the Capitol this week, prompted by Tues-

day’s deadline for filing tax returns to the Internal Revenue Service. On Monday Democrats failed to push a “Buffett Rule” tax on the rich through the Senate, another outcome that was preordained but served political purposes for both sides.

The House GOP measure would let employers with fewer than 500 workers deduct 20 percent of their domestic earnings this year — a calculation that would let businesses show a smaller income before determining the taxes they owe. More than 99 percent of U.S. employers have workforces that size, Census Bureau figures show, but that didn’t stop Republicans from naming the legislation the “Small Business Tax Cut Act.”

Handless girl wins penmanship award WEST MIFFLIN, PA. (AP) — A Pittsburgh-area girl born without hands has won a penmanship award — and $1,000 — from a company that publishes language arts and reading textbooks.

Zaner-Bloser Inc. recognized 7-year-old Annie Clark at Wilson Christian Academy in West Mifflin on Wednesday with its first-ever Nicholas Maxim Award.

Nicholas was a Maine fifth-grader born without hands or lower arms who entered the company’s penmanship contest last year. His work impressed judges enough that they

created a new category for students with disabilities.

After the ceremony Wednesday, Clark demonstrated her ability to write by manipulating a pencil between her forearms. Asked whether she was nervous about the attention, the girl said, “Not really, but kind of.”

The girl’s parents, Tom and Mary Ellen Clark, have nine children — three biological and six adopted from China, including Annie. Annie is one of four of the adoptees who have disabilities that affect their hands or arms. The Clarks

also have an adopted child, Alyssa, 18, and a biological daughter, Abbey, 21, with Down syndrome.

“Each time, we weren’t looking to adopt a specialneeds child, but that is what happened,” said Mary Ellen Clark, 48, of McKeesport.

“This was the family God wanted for us.”

Annie has learned to paint, draw and color. She also swims, dresses, eats meals and opens cans of soda by herself, and uses her iPod touch and computers without assistance.

She hopes to someday write books about animals.

group held a news conference to “save our race” and focused on getting the word out that most of the money raised at the event goes to grants for local services, including breast screenings, cancer treatments and education programs. The remaining 25 percent goes to national research.

“We just tried to connect with people that way and to show them that we do a lot of good locally,” she said. “This is too valuable a race to lose.”

By the time of the March 25 event, registrations had rebounded somewhat but were still about 30 percent lower than 2011 — roughly 7,200 registrants compared with 10,000.

The $425,000 fundraising total was down by about 25 percent.

New search for boy who vanished in 1979

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA REACHES OUT to shake hands with Lorain County Community College student Bronson Harwood after speaking Wednesday at the college in Elyria, Ohio.

Scandals hamper Obama’s message

By Jim Kuhnhenn Associated Press

WASHINGTON — It isn’t Mitt Romney who’s giving Barack Obama fits as the president pivots to reelection mode. It’s those federal bureaucrats carousing in Las Vegas, the Secret Service consorting with Colombian prostitutes and U.S. soldiers posing with bloody enemy corpses.

The scandals are taking a toll. They are distracting embarrassments that are dominating public attention while Obama seeks to focus on difficulties abroad and jobs at home. And they are giving Republicans an opportunity to question his competence and leadership, an opening for Romney in a race so close that any advantage might make a difference.

Even if the Democratic president escapes being defined by these flareups, they still feed a story line that can erode public confidence in Washington institutions, fuel a perception of federal excess and frustrate Obama’s argument that government can be a force for good.

The White House response has been textbook — a mix of outrage and deflection.

“The president has been crystal clear since he was a candidate about the standards that he insists be met by those who work for the federal government and on behalf of the American people and for the American people,” says White House spokesman Jay Carney.

But taken altogether, the events have overwhelmed the president’s agenda.

The Secret Service scandal broke while Obama was in Cartagena last weekend for a Summit of the Americas with more than 30 Western hemisphere leaders. Back home the headlines and the news anchors were hardly focusing on the summit, instead playing up the fact that 11 Secret Service agents and uniformed officers had

been sent home on accusations of misconduct.

By the time the president got home, General Services Administration officials were appearing before congressional committees about a lavish Las Vegas conference and junkets to resorts, and more evidence of excess was beginning to emerge.

Obama’s attempts to draw attention to his efforts against oil market manipulation on Tuesday and to help the economy on Wednesday were drowned out by further Secret Service revelations and by the publication of gruesome photos depicting GIs with the bodies of Afghan insurgents.

“Even though you may not be losing ground because it’s not the White House taking the hits, you’re no longer gaining ground because the White House doesn’t get its message out,” said Ari Fleischer a former spokesman for President George W. Bush.

Obama quickly tried to put distance between himself and the accounts of misbehavior. White House spokesmen avoided getting into specifics, instead citing investigations under way and referring reporters to the Secret Service or the GSA or the Pentagon.

“If it’s at an agency, White Houses do their best to keep it arms’ length and let the agency take the hits and deal with it,” Fleischer said. “I think that’s what’s going on here.”

Yet, the president can’t turn his back on the problems, either, and is ultimately held responsible for restoring the reputations of troubled agencies.

“Part of the president’s job is to protect the institutions of government,” said Paul Light, an expert on government bureaucracies and professor of public service at New York University. “He is administrator in chief whether he likes it or not.”

TRAYVON MARTIN SHOOTING

Safety, location at issue if Zimmerman is released on bail

By Curt Anderson and Mike Schneider Associated Press

ORLANDO, FLA. — After spending a week in a jail cell by himself, the neighborhood watch volunteer charged with murdering Trayvon Martin stands a good chance of being granted bail today, despite the severity of the second-degree murder charge he faces.

Whether George Zimmerman is allowed to leave the county as he awaits trial — and how he would remain safe — are two questions likely to be at the center of the hearing at the Seminole County Criminal Justice Center, legal experts say.

“Although it’s not routine for people charged with murder to get bond, they do get bond, and I think there is an excellent argument to be made in his specific case for him to

be released on bond,” said defense attorney Randy McClean, who practices in Seminole County, about 15 miles northeast of Orlando.

Zimmerman has several factors in his favor.

For one, he has ties to the local community including family members who are expected to testify by telephone on his behalf at today’s hearing.

He turned himself in voluntarily after seconddegree murder charges were filed against him last week, a good indication that he doesn’t pose a flight risk. He has never been convicted of a crime, which suggests that he doesn’t pose a threat to society, legal experts said.

“It’s hard for a prosecutor to argue he will leave, when up to this point he has been cooperative and everyone knows who he is,” said Stacey Honowitz, a prosecutor in Broward County.

NEW YORK — Police and the FBI began digging up a Manhattan basement Thursday for the remains of a 6-year-old boy whose 1979 disappearance on his way to school helped launch a missing children’s movement that put kids’ faces on milk cartons.

Etan Patz vanished on May 25, 1979, after leaving his family’s SoHo apartment for a short walk to catch a school bus. It was the first time his parents had let him go off to school alone.

A forensic team planned to dig up the concrete floor and remove drywall partitions to find blood, clothing or human remains in the building, just down the street from Etan’s home, police spokesman Paul Browne said. The work is expected to take up to five days.

Investigators received information over the past few months that Etan’s

remains might be buried in the basement of the building, which at the time the boy dis- Etan appeared housed the workspace of a carpenter who was thought to have been friendly with the boy, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press.

The official spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing. Two other law enforcement officials confirmed that an FBI dog detected the scent of remains at the building over the past few weeks.

Etan’s disappearance drew national attention to child safety, ushered in a generation of parents who became afraid to send their kids out alone and helped fuel a movement to publicize missing children’s cases. Etan’s face was among the first to appear on milk cartons. President Ronald

Reagan declared May 25, the day of his disappearance, National Missing Children’s Day. Etan’s parents, Stanley and Julie Patz, became outspoken advocates for missing children. For years, they refused to change their phone number, in the hope that Etan was alive somewhere, and might call.

They never moved.

Stanley Patz didn’t respond to phone calls and email messages Thursday. A man who answered the buzzer at the family’s apartment said they wouldn’t be speaking to the media.

No one has ever been prosecuted for Etan’s disappearance, but Stanley Patz sued an incarcerated drifter and admitted child-molester, Jose Ramos, who had been dating Etan’s baby sitter around the time he disappeared.

Ramos, who is not the carpenter whose workspace was being searched, denied killing the child, but in 2004 a Manhattan judge ruled him to be re-

sponsible for the death, largely due to his refusal to contest the case.

Ramos is scheduled to be released from prison in Pennsylvania in November, when he finishes serving most of a 20-yearsentence for abusing an 8-year-old boy. His pending freedom is one of the factors that has given new urgency to the case.

Investigators have looked at a long list of possible suspects over the years, and have excavated in other places before without success.

The 13-foot by 62-foot basement space being searched Thursday sits beneath several clothing boutiques. Investigators began by removing drywall partitions so they could get to brick walls that were exposed back in 1979 when the boy disappeared, Browne said.

Browne said the excavation was part of a review of the case, which was reopened by the Manhattan district attorney two years ago.

2 years later, fish sick near BP oil spill site

By Cain Burdeau Associated Press

BARATARIA BAY, LA. — Open sores. Parasitic infections.

Chewed-uplooking fins. Gashes. Mysterious black streaks. Two years after the drilling-rig explosion that touched off the biggest offshore oil spill in U.S. history, scientists are beginning to suspect that fish in the Gulf of Mexico are suffering the effects of the petroleum.

The evidence is nowhere near conclusive. But if those suspicions prove correct, it could mean that the environmental damage to the Gulf from the BP disaster is still unfolding and the picture isn’t as rosy as it might have seemed just a year ago.

And the damage may extend well beyond fish. In the past year, research has emerged showing deepwater coral, seaweed beds, dolphins, mangroves and other species of plants and animals are suffering.

“There is lots of circumstantial evidence that something is still awry,” said Christopher D’Elia, dean of Louisiana State University’s School of the Coast and Environment. “On the whole, it is not as much environmental damage as originally projected. Doesn’t mean there is none.”

Reports of strange things with fish began emerging when fishermen returned to the Gulf weeks after BP’s gushing oil well was capped during the summer of 2010.

They started catching grouper and red snapper

Momentum in U.S. hiring and home sales appears to be slowing, according to fresh data.

The average number of people seeking U.S. unemployment benefits over the past month is at a three-month high. And fewer Americans bought previously owned homes in March after mild weather boosted sales in the previous two months.

A possible weakening in two critical elements of the U.S. economy suggests growth could stay modest this year.

“We are in for a few more quarters of moderate growth before stronger gains might appear,” said Joel Naroff, president of Naroff Economic Advisors. More hiring is needed to drive up wages and salaries and fuel the recovery, he added.

CDC: 2011 saw spike in measles cases

ATLANTA — Last year was the worst year for measles in the U.S. in 15 years, health officials said Thursday.

There were 222 cases of measles, a large jump from the 60 or so seen in a typical year. Most of the cases last year were imported — either by foreign visitors or by U.S. residents who picked up the virus overseas.

U.S. children have been getting vaccinated against the measles for about 50 years. But low vaccination rates in Europe and other places resulted in large outbreaks overseas last year.

So far this year, 27 U.S. cases have been reported and it’s too early to gauge whether 2012 will be as bad AP Photo/Courtesy Donald Waters as last year.

Rumors swirl of smaller Apple iPad

By Peter Svensson Associated Press

NEW YORK — Apple generates more gossip than the Kardashians.

There’s a constantly spinning mill of rumors about Apple products, most of which turn out to be untrue. What’s unusual this week is that talk has revived of a smaller iPad model, an idea company founder Steve Jobs derided publicly a year before he died.

Apple and its suppliers aren’t commenting. Rumors of a smaller iPad, or “iPad mini” have percolated ever since the first iPad was launched two years ago.

This time around, they’re fed by media reports from South Korea, China and Taiwan, saying Apple has ordered Samsung screens that are 7.86 inches measured on the diagonal. That would make for a screen about half the size of the current iPad, which has a diagonal measurement of 9.7 inches.

A smaller tablet would help Apple further its lead in the tablet market.

“From a competitive standpoint, we believe an iPad mini with a lower price point would be the competition’s worst nightmare, says Shaw Wu, an analyst at Sterne Agee. “Most (competitors) already have a tough enough time competing against the iPad 2, as well as the new iPad.” Apple has successfully fended off competitors who have tried to sell tablets in iPad’s size range.

But last year, Amazon. com Inc. figured out how to crack Apple’s stranglehold on tablets by making a half-size, no-frills tablet. The result was the Kindle Fire, which sells for $199 —basically, the cost of production. Amazon has sold millions of them.

Apple sells the iPod Touch for $199, but its screen is about a quarter of the size of the Kindle Fire — a big disadvantage for people who want to enjoy books, movies and games. It also sells the older iPad model for $399. It has nothing in between.

Price isn’t the only reason customers might prefer a smaller tablet. A 7-inch model would fit in many handbags, unlike the current iPad. Wu says he’s seen evidence of Apple experimenting with both smaller and larger tablet screens since 2009, and doesn’t sense that the release of an iPad mini is “imminent.”

It could be hard for Apple to make money from an iPad-quality 7-inch tablet that sells for $299. Analysts at IHS iSuppli estimate that a smaller tablet would cost around $250 to produce, a figure that doesn’t include development costs, packaging or patent royalties. That suggests Apple would price it at $329 or $349.

“The first thing you always have to keep in mind is: Apple is not going to sell an unprofitable product,” says Rhoda Alexander at iSuppli.

Clinton urges tougher U.N. pressure on Syria

By Anne Gearan and Jamey Keaten Associated Press

PARIS — U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton called Thursday for the U.N. Security Council to adopt an arms embargo and other tough measures against Syria to try to halt 13 months of bloodshed, but she acknowledged such diplomatic actions would likely be vetoed.

Clinton’s comments to Western and Arab diplomats from the so-called “Friends of Syria” group came as the head of the United Nations accused Syrian President Bashar Assad of failing to honor a peace plan that went into effect a week ago.

In a transcript of her remarks on the State Department’s website, Clinton stopped short of calling for outside military intervention in Syria — something there is little to no foreign appetite for — but said it was time to impose more consequential measures on Assad’s regime.

“We have to keep Assad off balance by leaving options on the table,” she told the gathering of 16 top diplomats.

Clinton’s address suggested the U.S. wanted the “Friends of Syria” group to more ac- Clinton tively consider contingency plans if the peace plan by U.N. and Arab League envoy Kofi Annan fell apart. Although U.S. policy has amounted to an acknowledgment that Assad is unlikely to be dislodged, the U.N. resolution Clinton seeks could strengthen Syrian rebels fighting his regime.

“We need to start moving very vigorously in the Security Council for a Chapter 7 sanctions resolution, including travel, financial sanctions, an arms embargo, and the pressure that will give us on the regime to push for compliance with Kofi Annan’s six-point plan,” Clinton said, referring to a resolution under the U.N. Charter that would be militarily enforceable.

Any attempt to push for U.N. sanctions on Syria would likely meet resistance from Syrian allies Russia and China, which hold vetoes in the Secu-

rity Council. Moscow and Beijing have already twice shielded Syria from U.N. sanctions over Assad’s crackdown on a popular uprising that is estimated to have left 9,000 people dead and led refugees to pour into neighboring countries.

Clinton said she’d laid out the case for Security Council action earlier Thursday to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, whom she said “has recognized that we are not in a static situation but a deteriorating one.”

At the Paris meeting, French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said the “Friends of Syria” group believes Annan’s plan is the “last chance” for Syria to avoid civil war. But he didn’t rule out the possibility of tougher action at the Security Council, including “in the direction that Madame Clinton indicated.”

The prospect of military action, however faint, remained in some minds in Paris. Foreign Minister Saad-Eddine El-Othmani of Morocco, whose country holds a Security Council seat, said: “We hope the Kofi Annan plan works to avoid this (possible) military intervention.”

Bombs kill 30 in Iraq’s worst violence in month

By Lara Jakes Associated Press

BAGHDAD — Bombs ripped through 10 Iraqi cities Thursday, killing at least 30 people and shattering a month of relative calm. Minority lawmakers decried the violence as a tragic but inevitable result of the Shiite-led government’s attempts to dominate Iraqi politics.

Despite simmering sectarian tensions, a lull in deadly attacks since midMarch led many to hope Iraq had turned a corner and away from widespread violence. That proved overly optimistic as at least 14 bombs and mortar shells exploded across 10 cities over three hours in the morning.

At least 117 people were wounded, police said.

“What crime have we committed? How long will such violence continue?” wailed a woman, who would identify herself only by her nickname of Um Ali, after watching a car explode outside an apartment building in western Baghdad.

“This is security in Iraq,” a man nearby muttered sarcastically as he inspected damage to his car.

Six of the bombings struck at security forces and government officials — frequent targets for insurgents.

In Baghdad alone, 12 people were killed, mostly in Shiite neighborhoods. The other attacks hit northern Iraqi cities — from Samarra, where a 2006 mosque bombing touched off the worst of the insurgency, to the ethnically mixed city to Kirkuk, to Saddam Hussein’s hometown of Tikrit.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but Baghdad military command spokesman Col. Dhia al-Wakeel said they resembled those carried out by al-Qaida, the Sunni Muslim terror network.

Sunni and Kurdish lawmakers said the bombings likely were the result of a monthslong political impasse that has all but paralyzed Iraq’s government since the U.S. military withdrawal at the end of last year.

Afghan leader condemns U.S. troop photos KABUL, AFGHANISTAN — Afghan President Hamid Karzai condemned photographs of U.S. soldiers posing with the bloodied remains of three suicide bombers as “disgusting” and said Thursday that only a quicker exit of international forces can prevent such missteps.

Karzai joined top American officials in denouncing that 2-year-old photos, the latest in a string of embarrassing controversies that have jeopardized relations between the two countries in the midst of negotiations over the withdrawal of foreign troops.

He also warned that “similar incidents of an odious nature” in the past

sparked angry reactions from Afghans, including violent protests that left dozens dead, although there was no immediate sign of a popular backlash.

The photos were published in Wednesday’s Los Angeles Times. One shows members of the 82nd Airborne Division posing in 2010 with Afghan police holding the severed legs of a suicide bomber. The same platoon a few months later was sent to investigate the remains of three insurgents reported to have accidentally blown themselves up — and soldiers again posed and mugged for a photo with the remains, the newspaper said.

OSLO, NORWAY (AP) — Anders Behring Breivik knew it would take practice to be able to slaughter dozens of people before being shot by police.

In a chilling account, the far-right fanatic claimed Thursday that he sharpened his aim by playing the video game “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare” for hours on end.

Breivik told an Oslo court he also took steroids to build physical strength and meditated to “de-emotionalize” himself before the bombing and shooting rampage that left 77 people dead. He figured he had no more than a 5 percent chance of not being killed by police.

His lack of remorse and matter-of-fact description of weapons and tactics — he even considered using a flame thrower — were deeply disturbing to families of the victims, most of whom were teenagers.

“They perceive him as evil and dangerous and reopening wounds,” said Mette Yvonne Larsen, a lawyer representing the bereaved.

Breivik testified that he prepared for his attacks by cutting off contact with the outside world and devoting himself to video games. He said he played “World of Warcraft” for 16 hours a day while living with his mother in 2006 and, starting in January 2010, played “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare,” primarily to get a feel for how to use rifle sights.

Christopher Ferguson, a clinical psychologist at Texas A&M International University, said that although some research suggests action games can improve “visuospatial cognition,” it’s difficult to say whether Breivik could have improved his accuracy by playing “Modern Warfare.”

“Let us keep in mind too that he was shooting kids on an island from which they could not escape easily,” said Ferguson, whose research involves the impact of violent video games on behavior. “That does not require great accuracy.”

And while the belief persists of a link between violent video games and violent behavior, studies have shown that is not the case, he said.

Setting goals Changes in the United Way funding process may require some adjustments, but the community and its social service agencies should give the new approach a chance.

A

shift in the way funds are allocated by United Way of Douglas County has triggered concerns among some local social service agencies. Change is always difficult, but the community should give the new funding philosophy a chance to produce the positive results United Way officials envision.

United Way’s allocations committee, which represents a broad cross-section of the community, was instructed this year not to consider what local agencies had received from United Way in past years but to evaluate how their funding requests would help address three broad community goals in the areas of education, self-sufficiency and health.

The new approach resulted in increased funding for some agencies and reductions for others.

Some “safety-net” programs saw decreases, but other programs, which hopefully will reduce residents’ need for such safety nets, saw increases. The safety net certainly wasn’t withdrawn — Just Food received a $60,000 funding increase — but United Way was trying to target agencies that are looking for ways to work together to provide better and more cost-effective services for the community. United Way allocations are an ongoing process. Agencies that saw decreases this year could see increases next year and vice versa. In the meantime, however, some agencies must find ways to raise more money or cut expenses to make up for funding losses.

The transition to a new United Way funding model, which is part of a nationwide initiative, has been under way for several years and has involved considerable communication with social service agency leaders. The three community goals targeted by United Way were the result of a process that included community surveys, focus group meetings and data collection.

Even though United Way sets ambitious fundraising goals, the money raised in its annual campaigns can’t possibly meet all of the community’s charitable needs. One of the hallmarks of United Way always has been the confidence its donors have that their money will be wisely allocated to provide the “best bang for the buck” in the community. Setting solid goals will allow United Way to use statistics and measurement tools to track the impact of the money the community is investing.

Change is part of life. Whether you’re talking about business, government, charitable giving or just about any other venture, doing the same old thing in the same old way isn’t usually a winning strategy. United Way of Douglas County has a great track record in the community, and it deserves our support as it moves through a transition aimed at providing even better ways to help our community.

Shaky truce won’t last long in Syria The last thing the United States needs at the moment is to get involved in another Mideast war.

So some may hope a shaky truce in Syria, brokered last week by former U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, can halt the regime’s vicious slaughter of civilians. Some may even hope the Annan plan will defuse a Syrian conflict that could drag in NATO forces.

Sorry to say, those are unrealistic hopes.

After months of watching Syrian artillery pound residential neighborhoods, courtesy of gritty video on YouTube, we should understand the basics: Bashar al-Assad won’t willingly end his family’s 40-year dictatorial reign.

The U.N. plan called for Assad to pull back troops and heavy weapons from cities, and permit peaceful demonstrations — as a prelude to talks about a political transition. But the tanks, artillery, and snipers remain in place, although they were relatively restrained on Friday when crowds poured out after prayers.

That regime’s restraint is unlikely to last. “We know Assad will never respect the Annan plan because he knows the response will be millions on the street,” says Radwan Ziadeh, the U.S.-based spokesman for the opposition Syrian National Council.

“What we have is a ceasefire light,” says Andrew Tabler, author of “In the Lion’s Den: An Eyewitness Account of Washington’s Battle with Syria.” “I don’t think it will hold.”

One oft-heard option, advocated by Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., among others, calls for arming the Syrian opposition and setting up a safe haven inside Syria, adjacent to the Turkish border.

This no-fly zone, where opposition fighters could gather, would be protected by NATO planes.

Those who advocate a nofly zone never explain how it would lead to the fall of Assad.

Consider the following: A large segment of the Syrian population still backs Assad because it worries that chaos will follow his downfall. Syria’s large Christian minority, along with middleclass merchants, senior bureaucrats, and Baath Party members, fear a repetition of what happened in Iraq after Saddam Hussein’s ouster: the rise of Islamist parties, the

persecution of Christians, and the purge of secular civil servants and academics.

Moreover, the Syrians who have taken up arms (after the failure of peaceful protests) are no match for Assad’s wellarmed forces. The Syrian officer corps and key special units remain loyal because they belong to Assad’s Alawite (Shiite) religious sect. Alawites make up 10 percent of a population that is predominantly Sunni, and they view their survival as tied to the regime.

Furthermore, Syrian forces are armed by Russia, which is still backing Assad, whose security apparatus is also trained by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.

If NATO agreed to protect a no-fly zone along the Turkish border it would inevitably be sucked deeper into the Syrian conflict elsewhere in the country. NATO would also find itself in opposition to Russia. No wonder President Obama (and Turkey) have been reluctant to endorse such a zone.

But the Annan plan’s slim prospects shouldn’t lull anyone into thinking hard choices can be avoided for much longer. The cease-fire will fail, and the fighting will go on.

Meantime, Saudi Arabia is starting to funnel funds to the opposition. The longer and bloodier the Syrian battle, the more likely radical Islamists will rise to lead the opposition. When Assad falls, the West (and Israel) will face an unpredictable Islamist regime.

What is to be done? Washington, its NATO allies, and the Arab League should use

the current, brief lull to focus on two crucial efforts: First, undertake a full-court press to awaken Russian leaders to the imminent danger Assad presents to Moscow.

On a recent visit to Moscow, I heard repeatedly that Russian President-elect Vladimir Putin believes Assad will surmount his troubles. The killing of Syrian civilians does not trouble Putin.

The Russian leader’s main concerns are two: a stable Syrian regime that will buy Russian arms, permit Russia to use Tartus port, and keep Syrian Islamist movements down. With his own political future in mind, Putin is also deeply opposed to the ouster of Russia’s last Mideast ally by a revolution from below.

To meet Putin’s concerns, NATO and Arab leaders must convince Moscow that Assad’s survival is unlikely, and that the only way to avoid Russia’s nightmare scenario is for Moscow to press him go peacefully, and soon.

But NATO and Arab leaders must also urge the Syrian opposition to agree on a clear, and inclusive road map for unifying the country. The fastest way to force Assad out would be to win over a broader swathe of Syrians — including Christians, businessmen, and respected Sunni leaders.

That would split the regime from within. Then pressure would mount from inside the system to oust him.

And NATO would be saved from stumbling into another Mideast war.

Campaigns distort women’s issues Virtually everything said and done in a presidential election year distorts the truth, much like concave and convex mirrors in a carnival attraction alter one’s true reflection.

That kind of distortion occurred in the recent dustup over whether women who choose to stay at home can completely understand the economic challenges and personal struggles faced by women who choose, or need, to work outside the home while raising children.

There is no question that professional women receive much more societal validation than “stay-at-home moms.”

Few magazine covers at the checkout line or full-page ads promoting events and awards to “successful” women,

Liberal women are attempting to dominate women who share a different political and moral worldview.”

laud mothers who stay home to raise their children. There aren’t a lot of television shows today like “Ozzie and Harriett,” “Leave It to Beaver” or “Father Knows Best.”

The view expressed by Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen that Mitt Romney’s wife, Ann, has “never worked a day in her life” and thus can’t relate to struggling families is bogus. Can a politician who has never held a job in the private sector relate to those who work there, or are searching for a job there?

I’m thinking of the former community organizer, now president, Barack Obama. Can a career politician like Vice President Joe Biden identify with someone who doesn’t have the perks

— planes, limousines, high pay and discounted, or free health care — he has enjoyed for most of his career?

Former Vice President Dan Quayle’s wife, Marilyn, who is an attorney, said it best at the 1992 Republican National Convention in Houston: “...having a profession is not incompatible with being a good mother or a good wife. ...

Women’s lives are different from men’s lives. We make different trade-offs. We make different sacrifices. And we get different rewards.”

If a woman “chooses” to work at home (and aren’t politically liberal women supposed to support a woman’s career choice?) and if she feels adequately compensated, shouldn’t her choice be affirmed, not only by her husband or partner, if she has one, but also by society?

Similarly, if a woman wants to work, or must work outside her home, shouldn’t she be equally supported by society and not made to feel added guilt and pressure? Reasonable people ought to be able to answer, “yes,” to both questions.

Still, all of this is a distraction. Even if Ann Romney had chosen to work outside her home (and she did perform a great

deal of volunteer work while battling breast cancer and multiple sclerosis), and even if she then could — in Rosen’s mind — relate to other women who made that same decision, how would that make anyone else’s life better? Would such a choice

by Romney have improved the economy so that women who want to work outside the home, but can’t find jobs, get one?

Would it have allowed women to stay home if they were afforded that “luxury”?

This is what politics has become. It’s about feelings and image, not substance and ideas that work. Because of skyrocketing debt, high unemployment and the failed policies they have promoted, Democrats cling to feelings and focus on one’s ability to relate. But it’s a fiction to believe that the only women’s issues of importance are those promoted by the left.

Liberal women are attempting to dominate women who share a different political and moral worldview. It’s all a house of mirrors; nothing more than a distortion of reality in an election year.

Expect to see more of the same between now and November.

KANSAS RELAYS

Field and family LHS twins continue throwing tradition

JANAY DELOACH HOLDS HER TROPHY after taking the top spot in the Kansas Relays women’s long jump competition on Thursday in downtown Lawrence.

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Relays jumpers dream of gold

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

A little drizzle did not frighten two-time defending USA Indoor champion Janay DeLoach, who won the Kansas Relays downtown long jump competition Thursday with a leap of 21 feet, 8 1/4 inches.

The 5-foot-5, 26-year-old Colorado State University graduate competed four years for Ben Eielson High School at an Air Force base near Fairbanks, Alaska, where it gets mighty inclement.

“Cold is cold no matter where you go. As long as it’s warm it doesn’t really matter,” said DeLoach. She outdistanced former Texas Tech competitor Tori Polk (21-1 1/4) and former Arizona athlete Brianna Glenn (20-10 3/4) in 80-degree temperatures with just a tad bit of moisture falling prior to the athletes’ final jump.

“As soon as it gets cold, the wind starts blowing and it’s not so much fun. This was fun to compete, fun to watch, fun to have the crowd around.”

LAWRENCE HIGH FRESHMEN REBECCA FINLEY, LEFT, AND MATIA FINLEY are expected to pull and throw a lot of weight this year for the Lions. The twin sisters will be competing in both the shot put and discus events during the Kansas Relays, starting this morning at Memorial Stadium.

It’s not too often that high school freshmen have the largest or loudest cheering sections, but Lawrence High twin sisters Matia and Rebecca just might get that chance this weekend at the Kansas Relays.

Amid the throngs of fans who line up to watch the discus and shot put events, it would be difficult to blame Finley family members if they are more gung-ho than most spectators.

Not only are the Lions’ Matia and Rebecca scheduled to compete, but so is their older brother, Mason, a junior at Kansas University.

Chucking discs and shots truly is a family affair for the Finley siblings. Their father, Jared, threw at Wyoming University. His children grew up learning the tricks of the trade from him.

And when the kids were out practicing, it often was their mother, Lisa, who retrieved the recently hurled objects time after time.

The vast majority of that hard work came in Salida, Colo., the family’s former home. However, this past August, due to family circumstances, Matia, Rebecca and Lisa packed up and moved to Lawrence.

Though the appeal of being closer to Mason, a backto-back Big 12 outdoor champion shot putter at KU, didn’t hurt, Lisa said her main reason for choosing Lawrence and LHS was because she wanted to find a high school coach who could help mold her daughters into the throwers she thinks they are capable of becoming.

In his brief time working with the twins, Lions coach Jack Hood has been impressed with their work ethic and natural ability, which wasn’t a surprise to him, given their bloodlines.

Waking up with Weis: An account of pre-dawn KU drills

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo

THE SKY BRIGHTENS BEHIND CAMPUS as the Jayhawks run through offensive drills during a morning practice on Thursday at Memorial Stadium.

Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis pulled back the curtain on Thursday morning, allowing members of the media to observe a full practice for the first time this season.

The session began promptly at 6 a.m., and when it wrapped just after 7:15, those in attendance walked away with a better understanding of what Weis’ coaching style is all Weis about.

From the look of things, the first-year head coach did not hold anything back as he ran his team through an hour-long session that started earlier than normal because of the Kansas Relays.

Here’s a blow-by-blow report of how Weis works during KU’s practices:

5:52 a.m.

As a half dozen reporters and photographers hang out by the Memorial Stadium gate waiting for the all-clear, Weis approaches on a golf cart. He goes over the logistics of the day’s schedule and takes time to point out the portions that might be most interesting — and fun — to watch. According to him, that’s the 2-spot drill, in which wide receivers and defensive backs go one-onone at one end of the field while, on the other side, the linebackers and offensive linemen do a variation on the old “Oklahoma drill” in which the lineman is asked to block the backer long enough for his running back to score. After the quick tips, Weis talks about how he had a sleepless night and kept Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B

Brown named coach at SMU J-W Staff and Wire Reports

DALLAS — Hall of Fame basketball coach Larry Brown, the only man to win both an NCAA (Kansas, 1988) and NBA (Detroit, 2004) championship, on Thursday was named head basketball coach at SMU. Brown, 71, replaces former Brown KU assistant Matt Doherty, who coached at the Conference USA school for six seasons (80109 record).

“I’m thrilled that they think enough of me to put me in this position,” Brown told the Dallas Morning News. “I realize how important this hire is, going into the Big East (in two years).

I always thought of myself as a college coach. Now this gives me a chance to get back where I started.”

Brown, whose contract terms weren’t revealed at the private school, may hire Illinois State coach/former KU assistant Tim Jankovich as a “coach in wait-

ing.” The Pantagraph newspaper said Jankovich is “conflicted” in deciding whether to leave ISU to be an assistant again.

One of Brown’s prize pupils — KU All-American Danny Manning — will coach against Brown twice next season. Manning recently was named coach at Tulsa of Conference USA. “It’ll be fun and I’ll enjoy it,” Manning told the Tulsa World.

“When I see coach Brown, he’s going to have a lot of love and pride for me and I’m going to have the same for him.

“Coach Brown’s love and thirst for the game is unmatched,” Manning added.

“People talk about him being away from the game for the last few years. He just hasn’t been a head coach. He hasn’t been away from the game. He’s been at practices at Villanova, Kentucky and Kansas. He’s been to NBA practices. Coach Brown, in the game of basketball, will always be connected. It’s his understanding of the game. I’ve never been around a coach with a better feel for the game of basketball. I’ve been around him a lot of years, as a player and a person, and it’s really affected

Howard to undergo back surgery today Dwight Howard tells ESPN. com he will have season-ending back surgery. Orlando’s All-Star center will undergo surgery on Friday morning in Los Angeles to repair a herniated disk. The operation will end his season and keep him from playing in the Olympics in London.

Howard tells ESPN: “I tried to play through it and it just made my back worse.”

Howard has been dealing with back problems since early March, but it wasn’t until last week that a doctor discovered the herniated disk.

secure Jankovich as top assistant. Former Illinois assistant Jerrance Howard and Kentucky assistant Rod Strickland are expected to join Brown.

Brown hasn’t coached since he left the NBA’s Charlotte Bobcats in 2010 and hasn’t coached at the college level since leading KU to the national title in 1988.

That’s the last season SMU won an NCAA tourney game. He will rank among the oldest active Division I coaches. Jackson’s State’s Tevester Anderson is 75. Connecticut’s Jim Calhoun turns 70 in May. Syracuse’s Jim Boeheim and San Diego State’s Steve Fisher are 67.

“Larry Brown is one of the top coaches in the history of the game,” Orsini said. “He is a legend and has made every team he has ever coached a winner. As we transition into the nation’s top basketball conference, the Big East, his leadership will be invaluable.”

Next up is Brown naming his assistant coaches.

“That’s the hardest thing, I think,” he said. “I don’t have enough jobs to help people that have been great to me. It’s been pretty painful in that respect.”

BRIEFLY

MADISON, WIS. — Wisconsin will allow freshman forward Jarrod Uthoff to transfer to any school outside the Big Ten, hoping to defuse a situation that has drawn national criticism.

The school said Uthoff asked for permission to contact 16 schools and the Badgers rejected four of them. Uthoff appealed over three of those schools and met Thursday with athletic director Barry Alvarez and associate AD Justin Doherty.

The two officials then met with coach Bo Ryan and decided Uthoff can contact any school he wants to outside the Big Ten.

But it’s something that will always be a part of me, as a player and a coach.”

Brown spent several weeks with KU’s team this past season, following the Jayhawks through the Big 12 and NCAA tournaments.

“Our players loved him,” KU coach Bill Self said. “This means a lot, because I know how much it means to him. He has nothing to prove, but he’s passionate and he loves to coach. They hired a guy who is a proven winner.”

Self, who spoke on Brown’s behalf to SMU athletic director Steve Orsini, said that Brown, who is in good physical condition and works out regularly, seems closer to 55 years old than 71.

“People have to understand, you’re coaching college kids in the NBA, so I’ve found out kids want to be taught, they want to be coached, they want to get better,” Brown said. “I really think the fact that I’ve had a background in both areas is going to help me.”

6:00 a.m.

Weis: “Go ’head, Scott.”

The first horn sounds and KU strength coach Scott Holsopple starts screaming. His bark, at this point in time, is tame but plenty loud as he leads the Jayhawks through 12 minutes of warm-up running and stretches.

6:06 a.m.

One member of the media arrives at the southwest gate a little late. Explicit instructions were handed out weeks ago which stated that anyone arriving after 6:00 would not be let in. As one KU media relations staff member decides to allow entry to the tardy party, Weis, from around midfield, throws his arms into the air and then looks down at his watch. The man sees everything.

6:12 a.m.

Three minutes of team warm-ups. It’s a shorter, faster version of the stretching and involves more activities like sprinting over bags and around cones. As the action unfolds, Weis stands right in the thick of it, screaming, “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!” and “Gooood morning!

Wooooooo!”

6:16 a.m.

From the middle of the field, Weis keeps his head on a swivel and takes in all of the position drills. At one point, while watching the linebackers practice dropping into pass coverage, Weis gets on linebackers coach DeMontie Cross for the way he’s throwing the errant passes.

“Is this the bad ball drill?” Weis asks, not expecting an answer. “That’s what it looks like to me.”

Cross’ passes improve.

6:22 a.m.

Another horn marks the beginning of another drill. This one takes a little more time to set up, and, although he’s not the one throwing the cones down onto the field, Weis is orchestrating the whole thing.

“The ball’s on the 25, so set the cones up there (points to the 20).”

After the cones are in place, some confusion sets in and a manager attempts to adjust the markers.

“No, the cones are right.

Come on.”

Two minutes later, the drill begins. “We ready to roll?” asks Weis, a hint of displeasure over the wasted minutes leaking through.

6:25 a.m.

During the Oklahoma drill, Weis stands between the two groups and turns his body to watch each side go. Good comedy comes from this, as Weis has plenty of commentary for plenty of players, most of it brutally honest.

“That’s easy to do when you weigh 150 pounds more than him,” Weis tells senior offensive lineman Duane Zlatnik after a pancake block on linebacker Huldon Tharp.

“Come on, Marquis.

Run with some power,” he tells wide-receiver-turned running back Marquis Jackson after Jackson’s first turn carrying the ball.

Later, to one of his staff members, he bluntly states, “Do me a favor with the match-ups so we don’t have to have him in there.

It’s a waste of breath.”

Finally, after a lessthan-impressive effort by an offensive lineman, Weis yells, “You’re probably the best towel-waver in the place. I’ve heard you’re really good at that.”

Most of the rest of what Weis says cannot be printed.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY KICKER RON DOHERTY (13) GETS A CELEBRATORY BATH from Tyler Patmon (33), Dayne Crist, in back, and others following a made field goal to end practice on Thursday at Memorial Stadium.

STILL WAITING Despite assurances from the NCAA that a ruling would be made in the past day or two, Kansas University McCay continues to wait for word regarding the eligibility status of sophomore wide receiver and Oklahoma transfer Justin McCay. McCay applied for a hardship waiver that would allow him to play this season instead of sitting out the customary one year for transfers. At this point, there’s no telling when the ruling will be passed down.

— Matt Tait takes all of 30 seconds but is critical in his eyes, and it’s clear that he would’ve spent 3 minutes or 30 minutes if it were necessary.

It wasn’t.

6:31 a.m.

Back into the drill.

6:33 a.m.

Another horn sounds and Weis shifts to special teams drills. The Jayhawks spend the rest of the practice working on special teams. This includes kickoff and punt returns, kickoff and punt coverage and field goals.

The field goal kickers have a rough day, missing quite a few. Weis is not pleased. After one miss, the KU coach barks, “You’ve got one job to do.

Put it through the uprights.

Don’t gimme close.”

6:40 a.m.

Although practice is now in the hands of his assistant coaches — special teams coordinator Clint Bowen is running the drills but nearly every other assistant coach is very hands-on throughout the process — Weis still controls the show. As he walks slowly toward the action from the far sideline, his booming voice fills the empty stadium that now is partially lit by stadium lights and partially lit by the rising sun.

6:45 a.m.

Punt return. Senior Daymond Patterson lets a punt get past him and hears about it. “I know it’s 6:30 a.m. a knuckle ball, Daymond, Weis stops the Oklaho- but you still gotta get ma drill to instruct. This back,” Weis says.

6:45 a.m.

“Good coverage, McCay,” Weis shouts toward sophomore wide receiver Justin McCay, who stops in his tracks and is unsure of whether he should run over to his coach or run off to the other sideline to fall in line. Weis repeats himself, McCay nods and then sprints to the other sideline.

6:47 a.m.

“Let’s Gooooooo,” Weis bellows, clearly agitated by the fact that the next group is not ready in a timely manner.

7:09 a.m.

It’s time for the final drill, a field goal kick with no line and no rush.

Kicker Ron Doherty, long snapper Justin Carnes and holder Blake Jablonski are called to the 34-yard line at the north end of the stadium. As Jablonski sets in his spot, Weis stands three feet away.

Talk about pressure. It’s a 44-yard field goal with nothing on the line, but it means everything.

As Doherty goes into his routine, Weis calls timeout to ice him. Doherty’s teammates laugh hysterically.

7:13 a.m.

A few minutes later, Doherty’s back out there.

No timeout this time. Just a kick. And a miss. The KU players were ready to rush their kicker in celebration but the miss sent them back to the sideline.

Doherty makes the next one and a mini-celebration ensues. Not good enough, Weis says.

“When you win a football game, there’s supposed to be a celebration that looks like a celebration,” he screams. “And that was a pile of crap. I believe in practicing everything, including winning. That’s what this is all about. This isn’t about you guys jacking around over here, this is about third game of the season, you’re sitting here 2-0, you’re playing TCU, you haven’t won a conference game in eight years and you hit a field goal to win the game.

Act that way.”

7:15 a.m.

With Weis’ words fresh in their minds, the team watches Doherty’s next kick with a little extra interest. Doherty makes the kick and a full celebration follows. Doherty is dog-piled near the spot where he kicked the ball, water bottles are emptied onto his head and the Jayhawks form a tight circle and jump up and down, celebrating the mythical victory.

HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL

Free State walks off with win in extras

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Free State High junior Lee McMahon stepped into the batter’s box Thursday night at Hoglund Ballpark, ready to live out every baseball player’s dream.

Tie game. Extra innings.

Bases loaded. Two outs.

With three balls and two strikes against Warrensburg (Mo.) starting pitcher Aaron Kreitman, McMahon zeroed in on the pitch.

Ball four. The Firebirds won, 3-2, in eight innings on McMahon’s walk-off walk.

“It’s an interesting feeling,” the junior catcher said after the fireworksfree ending. “I would’ve been happier with a base hit up the middle, but a walk gets the same job done. I’m just glad everyone brought it together on the field today.”

FSHS coach Mike Hill wasn’t complaining, either.

“It’s a little melodramatic, isn’t it? That’s not the way kids draw it up when they’re in the back yard playing as little guys,” Hill said, “but we’ll take it.”

The Firebirds (5-6) put together their anti-climactic victory after sophomore Joe Dineen tripled with one out. With the game-winning run 90 feet from home, WHS coach

FREE STATE’S JOE DINEEN (15) CELEBRATES a run scored with teammate Trent Johnson (8) during their game against Warrensburg (Mo.) in the 2012 River City Baseball Festival on Thursday at Hoglund Ballpark on the campus of Kansas University.

Dave Liebnitz decided to intentionally walk the next two hitters, Joel Spain and Montana Samuels.

Then came a less conventional strategic move from Liebnitz, who brought his right fielder, Chase Leavy, in as a fifth infielder in an attempt to make a double play easier to turn.

The Tigers returned to their normal defensive alignment following a strikeout by JD Prochaska that gave FSHS two outs.

Dineen finally got the chance to touch home plate after McMahon’s walk “It’s rare,” Dineen said of scoring the winning run with a base on balls.

“That’s for sure. But it felt great.”

Hill credited McMahon for taking four pitches after falling behind in the count, 0-2.

“Lee is making a lot of strides as a hitter,” the FSHS coach said, “and he did a really good job

of making sure what was thrown was something he could foul off, or if he couldn’t foul off, take. I was proud of him.”

The Firebirds led, 2-1, entering the seventh inning, but after relief pitcher Sam Hearnen gave up a one-out walk to Nico Codemo, the Tigers junior advanced to second on a passed ball and got to third on a groundout by Harrison Hill.

With two outs, WHS junior Matt Mayden tied the

game with an RBI single to right field.

But Hill still liked what he got out of the junior Hearnen.

“That might have been the only bad pitch he threw,” the coach said of the tying hit.

Between Hearnen’s 2 2/3 innings of relief and starter Jacob Caldwell’s 5 1/3 innings, Free State’s pitchers gave up just four hits.

“Jacob’s been fabulous his last two outings,” Hill

Lee’s Summit bats light up Lawrence High

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

When Lawrence High’s baseball team arrived Thursday at Hoglund Ballpark to open its three-day weekend at the River City Baseball Festival, a onesided loss was not what the Lions had in mind.

However, Lee’s Summit West (Mo.) lit up LHS, 135, confounding Lawrence coach Brad Stoll, who expected more from his team on a big stage, playing on Kansas University’s baseball field.

“I’m upset,” Stoll said, “because we get a chance to play in this big-time facility, and we didn’t play well at all.”

Really, nothing much clicked for Lawrence (7-4), which got a rare rough outing from senior left-handed ace Garrett Cleavinger. The Oregon signee only gave up two runs through the first three innings, but got into trouble in the fourth, when the Titans scored three more runs off Cleavinger, forcing Stoll to turn to reliever Shane Willoughby with one out.

“There are some really electric bats in that lineup,” Stoll said, “and they took it to us, man.”

Cleavinger looked sharp in the third, picking up three of his five strikeouts, but the Titans bounced back quickly in the fourth. An Orencio Fisher RBI single made it 3-0 and Monte Harrison’s two-run double upped the Titans advantage to five.

Matt Hall, the first batter Willoughby faced, singled to left, making it 6-0.

Said LHS senior Matt Sutliffe: “I think the fourth inning was when they just piled it on and we couldn’t stop it.”

The Titans scored three more in the sixth and four in the seventh.

In the meantime, the Lions didn’t have many solutions for LSW starting pitcher Matt Hall, a Missouri State signee. The senior southpaw went six innings, striking out eight, giving up five hits and allowing just one run.

Sutliffe, who played with Hall on a summer team before his sophomore year, called the Titans ace legit.

“He’s probably the best pitcher we’re gonna see this year,” said Sutliffe, who doubled off his former teammate.

Willoughby, who had two of his three hits off Hall, said the entire game was disappointing.

“I think our energy level was pretty low to start off the game, and we started getting down and they kept piling on,” Willoughby said. “We couldn’t get one (run) across, which didn’t help.”

Once Hall left, and reliever Tanner Rosenthal entered in the seventh, Lawrence scored four runs. Troy Willoughby, Sutliffe, Drew Green and CJ Roush each drove in a run.

Shane Wiloughby was the only Lion with a hit through five innings — he singled in the first and doubled in the third.

Finally, in the bottom of the sixth, LHS found some success against Hall. Sutliffe led off with a double to left and sophomore Green moved him closer to home with a single to left field.

Though courtesy runner Driskell Johnson was picked off at first by Titans catcher Matt Fultz, Trevor Champagne was able to drive in Sutliffe

BRIEFLY LHS soccer loses Firebirds rout to SM South, 4-0 Leavenworth, 9-1 OVERLAND PARK — Lawrence High’s soccer team fell to Shawnee Mission South, 4-0, on Thursday night.

The Lions (1-8) will play at 6:30 p.m. today at Blue Valley Southwest.

SM South defeated LHS JV, 2-0.

LEAVENWORTH — Free State defeated Leavenworth, 9-1, on Thursday.

Regan Keasling, Margaux Gill, Chelsea Casady and Katie Sarraf each scored two goals.

Free State (5-1-2) hosts Topeka High today.

LAWRENCE HIGH’S KIERAN SEVERA WALKS BACK TO THE DUGOUT after striking out against Lee’s Summit West (Mo.) in the 2012 River City Baseball Festival on Thursday at Hoglund Ballpark on the campus of Kansas University. with an opposite-field single down the right-field line, and put the Lions on the board, 9-1.

The Titans got out to an early lead with a run apiece in the first and second innings. In the top of the first, leadoff hitter Travis Stroup walked. He scored from first when sophomore Monte Harrison pounded a double to the left-field warning track.

LSW went up 2-0 in the top of the second, when Boston Woodworth, after tripling down the rightfield line, scored on an RBI groundout by Matt Graham.

Stoll didn’t want to blame the loss on any one area.

“We lost as a team and we’re gonna play our butts off (today) as a team,” the coach said after the loss.

“That’s the good thing about this River City. In 24 hours we’re taking the field at Lawrence High.”

At 8 p.m. today at LHS, the Lions play Ozark (Mo.).

Relays

know. All of us will go to the (Olympic) Trials and give everyone a run for their money. These are great girls and great competition too.”

Making her first-ever trip to Kansas, DeLoach is ready to start her push toward the Olympics.

“I definitely want to stay at 22-5 consistently,” she said. “I want to get my average a little higher.

You don’t always jump

your best every time. I’m looking forward to working hard to make it to the Olympics.”

Nebraska’s Bjorn Barrefors won the Relays decathlon with 7,308 points; Liz Roehrig, who was unattached, won the heptathlon with 5,460 points. KU’s Alena Krechyk won the hammer in 216-8 and teammate Tessa Turcotte the 3,000 in 10:08.45.

“All of us girls are at the beginning of our season,” said DeLoach.

She placed sixth at the 2011 world championships. “It didn’t look like we jumped all that great today. It’s so early in the season you never

said. “His command has been great; his tempo’s fantastic. He’s not gonna go up there and blow it by you, yet he records several strikeouts.”

Caldwell struck out five and Hearnen had one, but FSHS likes Hearnen for his defense. Hill said one of the reasons the Firebirds went with Hearnen was his pick-off move, which he executed for an out in both the sixth and eighth innings.

FSHS, Hill said, has needed big outings from its pitchers, “because we’re a long way from where we need to be offensively.”

Free State had five hits in its fifth victory in the past six games. Along with Dineen’s three-bagger and a single, Prochaska doubled and both Samuels and McMahon delivered base hits.

Samuels drove in Dineen with a groundout in the first to tie the game, 1-1. In the fourth, Samuels put his team up 2-1 by scoring form second after the WHS defense mishandled the ball following a sacrifice bunt by Trent Johnson.

At 3 p.m. today at FSHS, the Firebirds play Bishop Miege.

Finleys CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

“They just come to practice and work to get better,” Hood said of Matia and Rebecca.

In their first season of high school competition, the Finley sisters have produced marks to make a big impression on Hood, as well. Matia has personal records of 125 feet, 4 inches in discus and 33-5 in shot put, and Rebecca’s bests have been 122-2 in discus, 36-5 in shot.

Though the marks of the athletic sisters, who both stand just a shade under 6 feet tall, are similar, their mother said their personalities at track meets aren’t at all alike. Matia is more competitive, while Rebecca is more laid back.

The throwing has been the easy part of starting anew in Lawrence for the twins. Transitioning to a larger city and school was the thing that took some time. As Lisa, put it, “They came from a town where we knew everybody.”

Their new home, Matia said, was only slightly familiar when they first arrived.

“We’d been here (to visit), but it was weird going to school and actually living here,” she said.

Added Rebecca: “We’re getting used to it. Slowly.”

Being part of LHS track, Rebecca said, sped up that process.

“It was easy to go to track,” she said, “because people were welcoming.”

There will be plenty of old familiar faces to accompany the Finleys’ new teammates in cheering on the twins once events begin this morning at the Kansas Relays. Jared will be in town to watch his kids, as will others from his side of the family, and Lisa said three of her brothers will be among the many Finley supporters.

“I’m excited,” Rebecca said. “We got most of the family to come down from Colorado and Missouri, because my brother’s throwing in it, too. We’re pretty excited about that.”

The sisters have been to the relays before as spectators, but now have the chance to compete at the same meet as their older brother. It’s a scenario that would make any mother beam.

“It’s going to be awesome,” Lisa said. “It’s going to be so cool.”

Yankees 7, Twins 6 NEW YORK — Curtis Granderson hit three home runs in the first four innings and matched a career high with five hits, leading New York past Minnesota.

Granderson homered in each of his first three atbats, driving in four runs, and helped Phil Hughes overcome a four-run first to secure his first victory of the season.

Mark Teixeira hit his first home run of the year and the Yankees earned a split of the four-game series. The Twins have not won a series in New York since 2001, a year before Ron Gardenhire took over as their manager.

Reds clip Cards, avoid sweep Reds 6, Cardinals 3 ST. LOUIS — Bronson Arroyo worked eight strong innings, and Cincinnati broke loose with three home runs for a victory over St. Louis that averted a three-game sweep.

Brandon Phillips, Ryan Ludwick and Drew Stubbs homered. The Reds had connected just once in their previous nine games and began the day with a .211 batting average.

The Reds picked on Adam Wainwright (0-3), a 20-game winner in 2010 coming off reconstructive elbow surgery that sidelined him all of 2011.

Wainwright is winless in his first three decisions for the first time in his career. He allowed four runs in five innings, leaving him with a 9.88 earnedrun average.

Matt Holliday’s threerun homer in the sixth was the only damage against Arroyo (1-0), who struck out five and walked none while scattering five hits.

Astros 11, Nationals 4 WASHINGTON — Houston set a franchise record by hitting three triples in a five-run first inning, backing starter Bud Norris with a season-high 17 hits on the way to a victory over Washington.

Norris pitched six innings for the win, and Brian Bogusevic and Jason Castro each had three hits for Houston.

The Nationals entered with a major league-leading 1.92 ERA, but they allowed more runs or hits than they had in any of their first 13 games.

Dear Annie: Bob and I are both divorced from our previous spouses.

His ex-wife was unfaithful, and so was my exhusband. We fell in love even though we live miles apart. I recently visited him for the second time to talk about our future plans. He wanted me to meet his friends, and I happily agreed.

“Tina” is a longtime family friend. Bob is godfather to two of her children. She claims to be best friends with Bob’s ex-wife. But during dinner, Tina made inappropriate advances toward Bob. He finally confessed that they had a one-night stand when he discovered his wife was cheating. They swore never to speak of their tryst. This happened long before he met me, and Bob says he feels terrible about it. But Tina made sure I knew they had a sexual history. It took every bit of reserve to maintain my

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

composure that evening.

While I have zero respect for a woman who sleeps with her best friend’s man, I am also unhappy with Bob. He has done everything within his power since then to prove that he loves me and wants a future with me, including marriage, but I cannot get past the fact that he and Tina crossed a boundary and still expect to remain friendly. What kind of man would try to merge his past with his present? — Feeling Confused

Celebrities take more ground I miss the old HGTV. Not long ago, it was a network where you could watch conspicuously unfabulous people as they learned to put up drywall and grout tile to improve their humble abodes.

There was a certain reality to this corner of reality TV. It wasn’t splashy, but it was addictive.

Things have changed. The title of the new show “I Brake for Yard Sales” (7 p.m.) sounds nice enough. Everybody — or at least a certain kind of everybody — likes yard sales.

But on television, particularly cable television, we can appreciate the things we like to do only if we watch celebrities doing them.

“I Brake for Yard Sales” features Lara Spencer, the professionally perky lifestyle anchor for “Good Morning America.”

You have to admire Spencer for pingponging around the TV dial, from the more popular end of PBS (“Antiques Roadshow”) to the dimmer realm of loud and unsubtle entertainment “news” shows (“The Insider”). She’s also appeared on ABC’s late-night “Nightline” and CBS’ “The Early Show,” leaving one to wonder if she ever sleeps. And speaking of loud and unsubtle, she’s had a semiregular gig on “Rachael Ray.” As if this frantic schedule weren’t enough, Spencer admits to a “dirty little secret”: She owns an antiques store.

Great. So now when you drive around looking for treasures, you’ll be haunted by the prospect of sleep-deprived infotainment stars getting there before you and gobbling up all of the bargains.

“Locked Up Abroad” (7 p.m., National Geographic) borrows from the VH1 chestnut “Pop Up Video” to offer viewers nuggets of information and insight about particularly gruesome foreign incarcerations. National Geographic offers four new “Popped” episodes tonight to promote the season opener of the regular (unpopped) version of “Locked Up Abroad” next Wednesday, featuring, you guessed it, a celebrity installment of “Locked Up Abroad.”

Tonight’s other highlights

Reba McEntire climbs her family tree on “Who Do You Think You Are?” (7 p.m., NBC).

A family needs help finding their missing provider on “The Finder” (7 p.m., Fox).

Nick feels conflicted on “Grimm” (8 p.m., NBC).

The team makes a leap two dozen years into the future on “Fringe” (8 p.m., Fox).

Kate takes on a case of alleged police brutality on “Fairly Legal” (8 p.m., USA).

BIRTHDAYS

Retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens is 92. Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., is 76. Actor George Takei is 75. Singer Johnny Tillotson is 73. Actor Ryan O’Neal is 71. Actress Jessica Lange is 63. Actor Clint Howard is 53. Actor Crispin Glover is 48.

Actor Andy Serkis is 48. Actress Carmen Electra is 40. Actor Joey Lawrence is 36.

Dear Confused: Bob has been honest with you, but as godfather to Tina’s children, she will always be in the picture. Do you trust him not to put himself in a compromising position?

That is the sole issue. You cannot change the past.

You can only accept it and move forward. You and Bob might benefit from premarital counseling. He sounds worth it.

Dear Annie: My daughter is planning a wedding to a great guy, and I am thrilled for her. The problem is, he comes from a very wealthy family. I live in a mobile home. If I’m lucky, I could scratch together $3,000 to put toward their wedding, but that’s it.

I don’t want to use the little money I’ve saved toward my retirement. I’ve already spent a fortune on my dress, the gifts and all the little extras.

So my question is, how do I offer $3,000 and say

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Friday, April 20: This year you discover your inner reclusive side. Others might express their worry or be taken aback.

Respond openly to their inquiries, as much as you can. If you are single, you could meet someone who is emotionally unavailable. If you are attached, the two of you will spend a lot of time together and enjoy it.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You keep putting your best foot forward, but someone continues to step on it. Be more in touch with how much you offer and give.

Tonight: Buy a few items to spruce up your wardrobe.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Keep an even pace; take a power nap if need be. A New Moon in your sign promises a new beginning. Tonight: All smiles.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You have been thinking through some life decisions, even if you haven’t necessarily wanted to.

You might be on the verge of making them a reality. Tonight: You can decide to do nothing.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Get past someone’s demand, or handle a responsibility.

By midafternoon, you’ll tend to be more gregarious. Tonight: Do not allow today’s mood to get the best of you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Quickly make calls, reach out for others and get to the basis of an issue without coloring the story by personal bias. Someone might make a demand or request that forces you to take the lead; make it your pleasure. Tonight: A

force to be dealt with.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Deal with calls and people individually. You could be unusually uptight about a situation and allow it to color your day. Tonight: Go with something offbeat.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Try to curb a tendency to self-sabotage. You have been unusually negative or touchy lately.

Tonight: Work on being optimistic.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your effort to preserve a situation might backfire. You cannot fight change — not emotionally, personally or professionally. Tonight: Join an acquaintance you do not see often.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Listen to your inner voice.

You sense that you might want to get out the door or start the weekend early. Tonight: Let your energy make the call.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Tension builds and causes a problem when you interact with authority figures. Know when to pull back and opt for a less public stance. Tonight: You do not need to go far.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Keep communication flowing, even if you don’t exactly understand what is happening. In your mind, you sense that someone is holding back. Tonight: Visit with a friend on the way home.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Someone could be asking for what you cannot give. Distance yourself for now. Tonight: Head home, then decide.

UNIVERSAL CROSSWORD

SO WHICH IS IT? By Kathy George

4/20

that is all I have to give toward the actual wedding? Do I need to apologize? Should I take out a loan or borrow from my retirement to save face?

This whole thing is keeping me up at night. — The Bride’s Mother Dear Mother: Parents should never put themselves in hock in order to pay for a child’s wedding. An adult bride and groom should pay for their own nuptials whenever possible, even if that means cake and punch in the backyard. Tell your daughter you love her very much, and you will be happy to give her $3,000 toward the cost of her wedding. Period. You don’t need to apologize or take out a loan. If she wants something more elaborate, it’s her problem, ACROSS not yours.

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