KU garden to provide firsthand experience of medicinal plants

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Hands-on learning took on a whole new meaning Tuesday afternoon for Kansas University pharmacy students as they traded white lab coats for blue jeans and microscopes for shovels.

The students were among the hundred or so people who helped plant the school’s new educational medicinal garden just south of the KU School of Pharmacy building on KU’s West Campus.

“It’s a nice change of pace,” second year pharmacy student Tabatha Snyder said.

The garden is part landscape, part history and part educational project. Much of the inspiration came from the first dean of the pharmacy

school, Lucius Sayre, who studied the medicinal use of native Kansas plants. After his death, a KU drug garden was developed in the 1930s.

With the planting of the new medicinal garden, many of those plants have returned to the pharmacy school, said Kelly Kindscher, a senior scientist at the Kansas Biological Survey who heads the botany arm of the project.

“It’s a history lesson,” Kindscher said.

The garden has 70 different species, which will be identified through signs and organized in five different beds.

On Tuesday, volunteers were planting everything from curly top gumweed, which is good for curbing poison ivy, to echinacea, what Kindscher calls the “patron

saint of Kansas medicinal plants” and known for boosting the immune system to help ward off colds, flu and infections.

Most of the plants are native to Kansas, but some came from Montana, New Mexico and West Texas.

“It is fun,” Kindscher said Tuesday after passing on instructions to volunteers.

“What is better than work where you get dirt on your hands?”

Medicinal gardens are common in pharmacy schools throughout Europe, but rare in the United States, said distinguished professor Barbara Timmermann, who is the head of the project and chairwoman of the school’s medicinal chemistry program.

She noted that 25 percent

of today’s prescribed medicines come from plants.

Those in the garden have chemicals that ease pain, fight malaria and help the digestive system.

“I can pull together what students learn in books and bring them out here to really see the plants,” Timmermann said.

Nalini Singh, who organized students to help with the garden, spotted plants she had learned about in one of Timmermann’s classes.

“It is kind of cool to see a lot of the ones Dr. Timmermann taught about in class,” Singh said. “We get to touch, smell and see them instead of view them on a slide.”

WASHINGTON — Osama bin Laden was unarmed when Navy SEALs burst into his room and shot him to death, the White House said Tuesday, a change in the official account that raised questions about whether the U.S. ever planned to capture the terrorist leader alive.

The Obama administration was still debating whether to release gruesome images of bin Laden’s corpse, balancing efforts to demonstrate to the world that he was dead against the risk that the images could provoke further anti-U.S. sentiment.

But CIA Director Leon Panetta said a photograph would be released.

“I don’t think there was any question that ultimately a photograph would be presented to the public,” Panetta said in an interview with “NBC Nightly News.” Asked again later by The Associated Press, he said, “I think it will.”

Asked about the final confrontation with bin Laden, Panetta said: “I don’t think he had a lot of Please see BIN LADEN, page 2A

KU Unions purchases Joe’s Bakery sign, recipes

By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

The sign that lit the way for many Kansas University students to get a late-night fix for doughnuts, egg salad sandwiches and other munchies at Joe’s Bakery is headed to KU. KU Memorial Unions purchased the blue neon Joe’s Bakery sign that hung on the east side of the building at 616 W. Ninth St. at an auction for $1,000, said Mike Reid, director of communications for the KU Unions.

“I’m just tickled to death,” said Ralph Smith, son of Joe Smith, who opened the Lawrence bakery in 1952. He bought the restaurant from his father and would later sell it to other owners before it closed for good in October 2007.

The doughnut shop was popular among students, Reid said, likely because of its late hours of service. He said members of the Class of 1961, back on campus for their 50-year reunion recently,

For once, parking was not a problem.

City Hall leaders and downtown merchants on Tuesday largely agreed to a compromise plan that would convert some two-hour free parking into 10hour metered parking to accommodate an office project by Treanor Architects in the 1000 block of Vermont Street.

“I feel a lot better about this now than I did a week ago,” said Rex Porter, owner of Rex’s Stadium Barber Shop, who was among a group of merchants in the southern end of downtown who previously had expressed concerns the project was going to CITY remove valuable parking for COMMISSION shoppers.

He was born Dec. 1, 1935, in Eudora, the son of Philip Andrew and Edith Louise Meuffels Brecheisen. He graduated from Baldwin High School in 1953.

He served in the U.S. Navy Reserve from 19561958.

Mr. Brecheisen had worked as a construction foreman and mechanic, and was trainer and owner of Brecheisen Racing Stables from 1980-2011.

He was a lifetime member of Quarter Horse

Association, Jockey Club, Kansas Quarter Horse Association and 101 Operating Engineers.

He married Barbara Susan Hunter on May 6, 1955, in Douglas County. She preceded him in death.

Survivors include two sons, Dale Lynn and Jeff Lee; a daughter, Dianna Lynn Brecheisen; three brothers, Marvin, Jay Dee and Philip; a sister, Marcella Madl; six grandchildren, Jason and Jamie Olmstead and Lucas, Katie, Sommer and Jesse Brecheisen; and two greatgrandchildren, Kadyn and Ryder Olmstead.

“They’re covered with gunk,” he said. “You can tell they’ve been used.”

But don’t expect to see Joe’s doughnuts popping up at, say, the Crimson Cafe in the Burge Union any time soon, Reid said, though they will use the recipes for special occasions.

Senate official: Wrong to WASHINGTON — The top staffer for the Senate Indian Affairs Committee is objecting to the U.S. military’s use of the code name “Geronimo” for Osama bin Laden during the raid that killed the al-Qaida leader.

Geronimo was an Apache leader in the 19th century who spent many years fighting the Mexican and U.S. armies until his surrender in 1886.

time to say anything.” The CIA chief told PBS NewsHour, “It was a firefight going up that compound. ... I think it - this was all split-second action on the part of the SEALs.” Panetta said that bin Laden made “some threatening moves that were made that clearly represented a clear threat to our guys. And that’s the reason they fired.”

The SEALs were back in the U.S. at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington for debriefing on the raid, lawmakers said after meeting with Panetta.

The question of how to present bin Laden’s death to the world is a difficult balancing act for the White House.

President Barack Obama told Americans that justice had been done, but the White House also declared that bin Laden’s body was treated respectfully and sent to rest in a somber ceremony at sea.

Panetta underscored on Tuesday that Obama had given permission to kill the terror leader: “The authority here was to kill bin Laden,” he said. “And obviously, under the rules of engagement, if he had in fact thrown up his hands, surrendered and didn’t appear to be representing any kind of threat, then they were to capture him. But they had full authority to kill him.”

N.H. garage reserved parking request likely going to review committee

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

Another downtown parking discussion soon will be coming to City Hall.

City Manager David Corliss said he anticipates bringing forward a recommendation within the next 60 days on a request to reserve parking spaces in the Ninth and New Hampshire street parking garage for an adjacent seven-story office and apartment building that currently is under construction.

Corliss said his office is looking for a way to use the garage to accommodate the project, but said the idea of actually reserving spots is

creating some concerns.

“We would like to avoid reserving public parking spaces,” Corliss said.

A development group led

by Lawrence businessmen Doug Compton, Mike Treanor and others is constructing the building at the southwest corner of Ninth and New Hampshire streets. The building, which will have a mix of apartment, office and retail uses, will tie into the adjacent parking garage.

The development group has asked for 65 reserved parking spaces in the garage and would like the spaces to be free of charge for the first two years of the project. The group also is asking for $280,852 in city

funding to pay for various infrastructure items such as utility relocation, stormwater improvements, sidewalk replacements and other similar infrastructure projects associated with the project.

Corliss said he plans to recommend that both the funding and parking requests be sent to the Public Incentives Review Commission, which is the group that reviews tax abatement requests and other business incentives. A date hasn’t been set, but Corliss said it likely would be either in May or June.

Strong’s Office Supply building, 1040 Vt., into new headquarters for the architecture firm.

The company’s leaders had asked the city to open the parking lot, which currently is a two-hour free lot, up to 10-hour parking. But several merchants balked at the suggestion. At a Tuesday afternoon forum, City Commissioner Bob Schumm proposed that only half of the approximately 60-space lot be opened up to 10-hour parking, while the rest would

remain for two-hour free parking.

Schumm also is proposing that five two-hour meters along North Park street, which is about a block from the project, be converted to 10-hour meters.

Several representatives of businesses in the area, including a representative from adjacent D&D Tire, said the plan sounded promising.

Bill Fleming, an attorney for Treanor Architects, said the compromise also sounded workable.

He said the company hopes to begin construction on the project, which will include adding a second floor to the former Strong’s building, by June. Construction is expect-

ed to be completed by the end of the year.

The full City Commission will consider the parking proposal at its meeting next week. As part of the proposal commissioners also will consider a request from Treanor that the company be allowed to purchase 10-hour longterm parking permits at their current rate for the next 10 years. That part of the proposal was not discussed at the forum, but Schumm and City Commissioner Hugh Carter previously have expressed concerns with that part of the plan.

Nobody claimed responsibility for the attack, which struck a Shiite enclave in a mainly Sunni neighborhood, but it bore the hallmarks of the terror network’s chapter in Iraq. Al-Qaida operatives have vowed revenge for bin Laden’s death on Monday.

Iraqi security officials said Monday that they were increasing security amid fears that insurgents would try to strike immediately following bin Laden’s death as a way to show they are still a potent force.

Report: Arctic melt faster than expected The ice of Greenland and the rest of the Arctic is melting faster than expected and could help raise global sea levels by as much as 5 feet this century, dramatically higher than earlier projections, an authoritative international assessment says.

The findings “emphasize the need for greater urgency” in combating global warming, says the report of the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Program (AMAP), the scientific arm of the eight-nation Arctic Council. The warning of much higher seas comes as the world’s nations remain bogged down in their two-decade-long talks on reducing emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases blamed for global warming.

Rising sea levels are expected to cause some of global warming’s worst damage — from inundated small islands to possible flooding of New York City’s subways. Oceans will not rise uniformly worldwide, because of currents, winds and other factors, but such low-lying areas as Bangladesh and Florida will likely be hard-hit.

For the first time, Americans 45 and older make up a majority of the voting-age population, giving older Americans wider influence in elections as the U.S. stands divided over curtailing Medicare and other benefits for seniors.

Along with the information about the growing influence of older adults, preliminary census estimates also show a decline in the number of married couples with children, slight growth in household size and a rapid rise in the number of Mexicans.

The findings, based on the latest publicly available government data, offer a preview of trends that will be detailed in the next round of 2010 census results being released this month that focus on age, household relationships and racial subgroups.

Turkey is a key regional mediator and in the past tried to nudge Gadhafi to meet demands for change from the opposition. However Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan adopted a much tougher stance Tuesday, saying that Gadhafi must “immediately step down.”

In Tripoli, Libya’s deputy foreign minister, Khaled Kaim, said such a decision is not up to Turkey, but the Libyan people. “If you want to be a mediator, you shouldn’t express yourself to support one party against the other,” he said.

A Kansas Highway Patrol trooper said Tuesday drug use and driver inattention would be listed as contributing factors as to why a 24-year-old Eudora man crossed a median in a deadly April 16 accident on Kansas Highway 10.

Troopers have said an eastbound car driven by Ryan Pittman crossed over into the westbound lanes and struck a minivan near the Church Street interchange. Cainan Shutt, a 5year-old Eudora preschooler who was riding inside the van, also died, and his 23-month-old sister Courtlynn Shutt and their grandparents were injured.

“We’re not going to know a specific cause of why he went into the median. We have contributing circumstances of why the accident happened but no cause,” Trooper Casey Simoneau said Tuesday.

Coroner’s officials said two weeks ago a preliminary autopsy report indicated Pittman had marijuana; benzodiazepine, which is a depressant used in drugs to treat insomnia and anxiety; and methadone in his system.

KU teams with Marillac on child psychiatric services

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

Kansas University School of Medicine and Marillac, a mental health center for children, are teaming up to create a Center of Excellence for Child Psychiatry.

The collaboration means KU will be able to train more professionals in a child-centered setting and patients will have access to more services.

On May 23, all five of KU’s child psychiatry faculty will begin providing inpatient care at the Marillac Center in Overland Park. Marillac’s psychiatrist, Dr. Brian Barash, a KU graduate, will join the school’s faculty.

In the coming months, KU faculty also will provide outpatient care at Marillac in addition to the outpatient care they provide at KU Medical Center’s main campus.

“This collaboration offers great advantages to the current patients of both facilities and creates new opportunities, as our faculty members will be able to treat more patients in a setting designed to enhance our quality child psychiatry education program,” said Dr. William Gabrielli, chair of KU School of Medicine’s Department of Psychiatry

and Behavioral Sciences.

Through the collaboration, KU Hospital will close its 16bed Child and Adolescent inpatient unit, which had three or four patients on average per day. At most, it had eight patients.

Those patients will be served in Marillac’s 32-bed child psychiatry facility. At Marillac, children will have greater access to services, particularly group therapy with similarly aged patients.

“The Marillac collaboration is in the best interest of our child and adolescent patients,” said Bob Page, president and chief executive officer of KU Hospital. “Marillac offers young patients access to the full continuum of behavioral health care in an environment designed specifically for their needs.”

KU Hospital’s 24-bed adult psychiatric inpatient unit will remain open. The hospital also will continue to provide adult and child outpatient psychiatric care.

Senate committee won’t OK dismantling Kan-Ed

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — A state-run network that provides broadband access to hundreds of schools, libraries and hospitals but has angered powerful telecommunications interests may have received a reprieve on Tuesday from the legislative chopping block.

Sen. Pat Apple, R-Louisburg and chair of the Senate Utilities Committee, indicated his committee wasn’t going to act on a Houseapproved bill that would pull the plug on Kan-Ed. Instead, Apple directed Kan-Ed leaders to get with cable and phone company lobbyists and make peace.

“Good people are involved and I think they’ll come up with a solution,” Apple said.

Report CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

But the full autopsy, including a detailed toxicology report, is not yet complete, and Simoneau said if new information comes out of the final autopsy report it could change details in his accident report.

Simoneau also said the accident report would note Pittman’s license was suspended. According to state records, Pittman’s license was suspended Jan. 25 for failing to maintain continuous liability insurance or file evidence of insurance.

Huntington’s CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A ●●●

Huntington’s disease, commonly called HD, is a hereditary degenerative brain disorder that slowly diminishes an individual’s ability to walk, talk and reason.

There is no cure. People usually live about 20 years after the onset of visible symptoms. They typically die of pneumonia, heart disease and suicide.

The onset of symptoms can appear anywhere from age 2 to 90, but typically they show up in midlife. HD is passed from parent to child.

It is estimated that 30,000 people have the disease nationwide, including 600 in Kansas.

Five years ago, Gary began showing symptoms. He was a chef and was having trouble getting along with others at his job.

“I would feel really, really overwhelmed, and I had never felt like that,” he said.

The typically laid-back Gary became irritated at things he wouldn’t have been before.

Then, he began having balance issues and couldn’t work on his motorcycle.

At the urging of his friends, he f inally got tested. It revealed what he already knew: He, too, had inherited the disease. ●●●

Today, Gary is on disability and unable to work. The disease causes involuntary movements and memory loss. He has trouble comprehending what others are saying.

He also has to be careful when he drinks and eats. A common effect of HD is risk of aspirating.

“I choke a lot just drinking and stuff like that,” he said.

Gary lives alone in a Lawrence apartment that a

Mother’s Day Special

Apple told Andy Tompkins, president and chief executive off icer of the Kansas Board of Regents, which administers Kan-Ed, to meet this summer with representatives of the telecommunications industry. Tompkins said he would be more than happy to do that. “I think it’s the right thing to do,” he said.

Earlier, lobbyists from Sprint, Verizon Wireless and the Kansas Cable Telecommunications Association said Kan-Ed was providing services that private companies could provide.

John Federico, president of the Kansas Cable Telecommunications Association, said Kan-Ed “appears to be another government program that has overreached and lost sight of its original purpose.”

Kan-Ed was created in 2001

and is funded with a monthly 25-cent-per-line charge on telephone service. That raises about $10 million per year for its operation.

The House approved a measure that would stop funding Kan-Ed on July 1, 2012.

But a long line of people representing libraries, hospitals and schools told the Utilities Committee that Kan-Ed provides a vital service that they otherwise could not get or could not afford to get.

Health care officials said Kan-Ed has been instrumental in expanding telemedicine, which has allowed patients in rural areas to access specialized physicians without having to travel long distances.

“The rural nature of our state coupled with the anticipated health care workforce shortages in future years

Simoneau said Tuesday troopers had been operating LIDAR check lanes, which incorporates a laser to gauge for speeding vehicles. That was also happening on Monday and Tuesday. Technical Trooper Don Hughes said the highway patrol has used the tactic periodically on K-10.

“It’s a priority road for us.

It has a high volume of traffic.

The guys are consistent with working it,” Hughes said.

The aftermath of the April 16 crash has spurred a call — including from Cainan Shutt’s parents and about 4,000 people on Facebook — for the Kansas Department of Transportation to re-examine whether it should install a

cable barrier in the median along K-10 from Lawrence to Interstate 435 in Johnson County to stop cross-median crashes. After a 2008 study, KDOT officials said K-10 did not qualify for a cable barrier.

But Gov. Sam Brownback last month directed KDOT officials to reopen the study and work with local officials after receiving a letter from Eudora Mayor Scott Hopson.

KDOT officials are scheduled to meet with city officials, including those from Lawrence and Eudora, on May 12.

makes expanding telemedicine programs in Kansas imperative,” said Chad Austin, vice president of government relations for the Kansas Hospital Association.

Schools, especially in smaller districts, are dependent on Kan-Ed for providing long-distance learning opportunities, such as calculus and foreign language in schools that don’t have those subject teachers.

And officials representing small libraries said they would lose quality Internet access or access altogether without Kan-Ed.

Learn about Huntington’s The Lawrence Huntington’s disease support group will be hosting a special presentation at 7 p.m. May 17 at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Maine, in recognition of Huntington’s Disease Awareness Month.

Cheryl Sullivan, of Massachusetts, will talk about her husband’s symptoms and longtime friend rents to him at a sharply reduced rate. He has a network of friends who check on him.

Greg Suter, executive director of the Hereditary Neurological Disease Centre in Wichita, which specializes in HD, said Gary’s friends have been an exception to the norm.

Typically, friends fade after an HD diagnosis, Suter said.

He said test outcomes can deeply divide families and often marriages end in divorce.

“Over time, there just isn’t anyone. That is the typical scenario. Often, they are abandoned,” Suter said.

But, Gary remains close to his older brother Mike, who lives in California and has tested negative for HD. He also has stayed in touch with several of his high school buddies, including Bo March. They go to church and live music shows and just hang out.

“It’s been a challenge because he has the desire to be doing things and he has the energy. He just simply doesn’t have the ability to do things,” Bo said. “I know that it has been frustrating for him.”

Bo’s wife, Carol March, has helped Gary in a variety of ways. She drives him to appointments and meetings, meets with his social worker, and helps with paperwork and bills.

“I call her his angel. She does a lot of things for him,” Bo said.

Carol has helped organize

diagnosis, and how their two daughters have been diagnosed as well.

“I am the only person in my immediate family that won’t be diagnosed with Huntington’s disease. The fact that I will be a caretaker for the rest of my life is overwhelming,” she said.

The presentation is free and open to the public. a concert benefit May 6 at The Granada for Huntington’s disease research and for Gary. The goal is to provide Gary with some additional support so he can remain at home for as long as possible.

“He’s such a joy to have around, and so it’s so easy to try to do what we can to help him continue his independence and live life to the fullest,” she said. “He is just an inspiration to me all of the time.” ●●●

Gary’s also a fighter.

He is participating in a five-year study involving a compound that researchers think will slow the disease’s progression. The study is being done through the Hereditary Neurological Disease Centre in Wichita. Gary takes eight pills every day and visits the Wichita center every six months.

“He has the hope,” Suter said. “He hasn’t lost the hope that something is going to work and slow down the progression.”

Gary also attends Huntington’s disease support group meetings in Lawrence. About 20 people attend regularly.

“It helps. Everyone is dealing with the disease with a lot of dignity. It is amazing,” he said. “Everyone has a good sense of humor — I love that.”

BRIEFLY 2 Lawrence students win merit scholarships Two students from Lawrence are among 2,500 students to be designated nationally as Merit Scholars by the National Merit Scholarship Corp.

The winners from Lawrence: ● Alex Chen-Yu Kong, of Free State High School, whose probable career field is pharmacy. ● David Lawrence, of Bishop Seabury Academy, whose probable career field is undecided.

Each will receive a $2,500 scholarship. Winners of such scholarships are considered to be the finalists in each state judged to have the strongest combination of accomplishments, skills and potential for success in rigorous college studies, the corporation said in announcing the winners. They were selected by a committee of high school counselors and college admissions officers.

Man accused of battery found competent A Douglas County judge Tuesday declared a 34-year-old Lawrence man competent to assist in his defense in connection with charges related to a March incident in the 1400 block of Haskell Avenue.

District Judge Michael Malone made the ruling in the case of Leon E. Kimball, 34, who is accused of breaking into a residence, forcing one resident inside to go with him to find someone else and punching another of the residents, who required stitches.

Prosecutors have filed aggravated charges of battery, robbery, kidnapping and burglary against him.

Two co-defendants, Joshua D. Haynes, 22, and Tasha M. Barnes, 34, have already entered pleas to misdemeanor criminal restraint and criminal trespassing charges in the case. Prosecutors said there was no evidence Haynes and Barnes struck anyone during the incident.

Malone sentenced Haynes to serve 12 months on probation and to have no contact with his co-defendants or victims. Malone is scheduled to sentence Barnes on May 12.

A preliminary hearing for Kimball is scheduled for May 25.

Boy taken to LMH after failing to yield to car An 11-year-old Oskaloosa boy was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital on Monday night after he ran into the side of a car while on his bicycle on Kansas Highway 92.

According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, Domineq Kalinichenko at 6:45 p.m. Monday failed to yield to westbound car driven by an Ozawkie woman as he was headed south on Union Street and tried to cross Jefferson Street, which is K-92 in Oskaloosa.

Domineq was taken to LMH with a possible injury, and he was treated and released, a hospital spokeswoman said Tuesday.

Man in KU fight nearly done with diversion A 21-year-old man with ties to a 2009 fight between Kansas University football and basketball players told a judge Tuesday he had two more anger management classes to complete related to a diversion agreement. District Judge Kay Huff agreed to give Guy Lipscomb until May 17 to complete the courses. Douglas County prosecutors had filed a motion asking Huff to revoke Lipscomb’s diversion alleging he had not completed the courses.

In September 2010 Lipscomb entered the agreement with prosecutors on two criminal threat charges he faced.

Lipscomb, who was not a KU student, was accused of threatening to get a gun and shoot two women on Sept. 22, 2009, outside Jayhawker Towers in a parking lot.

According to earlier testimony one victim, who was a member of the KU track team, said she saw Lipscomb at a fight outside the Burge Union about an hour earlier before he made the alleged threats. KU basketball player Tyshawn Taylor injured his thumb in the Burge Union fight, and players from the two teams got into a second altercation the following morning outside Wescoe Hall.

Huff told Lipscomb if he completed the anger management counseling before May 17 he would not need to appear in court that day.

Legislature recognizes Lecompton for role in state, U.S. history

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

T O P E K A — The city of Lecompton is being recognized by the Legislature for its unique role in Kansas and U.S. history.

“We like to say that the Lecompton Constitution was the birthplace of the Civil War and where slavery began to die,” said Paul Bahnmaier, president of the Lecompton Historical Society.

Lecompton was the territorial capital of Kansas. The pro-slavery Lecompton Constitution written there was rejected by Congress and led to a split in the Democratic Party, which allowed Republican Abraham Lincoln to win

the presidency with 39 percent of the vote.

Earlier this year, Bahnmaier had proposed that the Legislature meet for one day in Lecompton, which is between Lawrence and Topeka, as part of observing Kansas’ 150th anniversary of statehood.

But legislative leaders said that the Kansas Constitution prevented the Legislature from meeting outside Topeka, although there have been instances where numerous legislators have attended meetings outside the capital.

Legislative leaders are scheduled to visit Constitution Hall in Lecompton on May 20 to sign the resolution. The entire Legislature is invited.

Bahnmaier and Iona Spencer, historian and genealogist of the Lecompton Historical Society, on Monday watched the Kansas House approve a resolution commemorating Lecompton.

State Rep. Tom Sloan, RLawrence, said the city of Lecompton was trying to remain economically viable, like many small towns in Kansas.

The Senate is expected to pass the same resolution today.

According to the report, the aircraft, a Beechcraft 58 Baron, crashed into the ground just after noon. The pilot was attempting a common training practice known as a missed approach maneuver at the Philip Billard Municipal Airport in Topeka when the accident occurred.

The family, Amy and Richard Dylan Spencer and their daughters Ansley and Chase, were killed in the crash. The airplane was destroyed.

The report also states that Dylan, who was piloting the aircraft, had filed an instrument flight rules flight plan in accordance with the overcast

weather conditions that Friday morning.

Two pilot witnesses at the municipal airport reported seeing the aircraft about 200 to 300 feet above the runway with its landing gear extended. When the plane neared the runway’s end, the landing gear was retracted and the aircraft began a slow ascent.

The NTSB said during the missed approach the plane entered a steep left turn and collided with the ground. Numerous people reported hearing the crash and seeing an explosion, but there were no eyewitnesses to the actual impact.

There were no reported distress calls issued by the pilot before the incident.

The airplane wreckage was located in Jefferson County about four miles northeast of the airport.

Middle schoolers will get a sneak peek into a multibillion-dollar Kansas industry this June, learning how math and science classes can be put to use in a career.

The new Kansas Aviation Youth Camp will teach kids about flight planning, aviation weather, weight and balance of planes, careers in aviation, airport traffic patterns and communications. The camp, which will be held at Lawrence Municipal Airport, will run from 8:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. June 4.

Rick Bryant, organizer of the camp, said it was designed as a half-day session to whet the appetites of young students.

“It will show them when they get into math and science curriculums, how they can apply in real life,” Bryant said.

“There’s a whole gamut of aviation career possibilities.”

Bryant saw a similar camp being offered in Iowa, and with Kansas’ rich aviation background, he said he thought it would be a good idea to bring the opportunity to Lawrence. He also saw an opportunity for the Kansas Commission on Aerospace Education, a partner in the camp. The organization has seen dwindling membership and wanted an outreach program for kids.

“It introduces students who don’t necessarily have the opportunity to go to the airport,” he said. “This is the right age group to start planting seeds for the future.”

The camp will split a maximum of 32 12- to 15-year-olds into four groups. They will rotate through four sessions in Kansas University’s Aerospace Engineering hangar: flight planning and aviation weather; plane anatomy 101 and weight balance; careers in aviation; and traffic patterns and communications.

Professional pilots will be on hand to teach most of the sessions, and local meteorologist Matt Elwell will teach the weather session.

Duane Peterson, special events supervisor for Lawrence Parks and Recreation, said the camp was a new type of activity for that age group.

“This is the age group that we’ve always struggled trying to find something interesting,” he said. “I think this fits right in there. I think we have something that’s very interesting.”

If the camp succeeds, Bryant hopes to pass it along to other Kansas airports, and Peterson hopes it will continue in Lawrence.

“Hopefully we can provide more educational camps such as this for this age group,” Peterson said.

For registration information, visit lawrenceks.org/ lprd, code 325100A. The camp costs $25 per child. Four scholarships are available, and campers can apply for them by visiting lawrenceks .org/lprd/weefolks or at the South Park Recreation Center, 1141 Mass.

Questions on war plan arise after bin Laden death

By Robert Burns and Donna Cassata Associated Press Writers

WASHINGTON — The demise of Osama bin Laden complicates what was already a tough call for President Barack Obama: how to wind down the nearly decade-old war in Afghanistan. Now the symbolic reason for staying in the f ight — to get alQaida’s leader and avenge 9/11 — has been undercut.

Momentum had been building in Congress and elsewhere for a shift to a narrower, less costly military mission in Afghanistan even before the U.S. raid that killed bin Laden.

This could suit Obama’s desire to put Afghanistan behind him by beginning a phased troop pullout this summer along with NATO partners. But it also could put him at sharper odds with his military commanders, who argue for a slower drawdown and a longer-term military commitment that they believe would lessen the chances of Afghanistan again falling apart.

Levee blast relieves town, but ruins crops WYATT, MO. (AP) — The dramatic, late-night demolition of a huge earthen levee sent chocolate-colored floodwaters pouring onto thousands of acres of Missouri farmland Tuesday, easing the threat to a tiny Illinois town being menaced by the Mississippi River.

But the blast near Cairo, Ill., did nothing to ease the risk of more trouble downstream, where the mighty river is expected to rise to its highest levels since the 1920s in some parts of Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana.

The Army Corps of Engineers was considering making similar use of other “floodways” — enormous basins surrounded by giant levees that can be opened to divert floodwaters.

A staccato series of explosions lit up the night sky Monday over the Mississippi with orange flashes and opened a massive hole in the Birds Point levee. A wall of water up to 15 feet high swiftly filled corn, soybean and wheat fields in southeast Missouri.

Upstream at Cairo, which sits precariously at the confluence of the swollen Mississippi and Ohio rivers, preliminary readings suggested the explosion worked.

But across the river, clearing skies gave a heartbreaking view of the inundation triggered by the demolition. The torrent swamped an estimated 200 square miles, washing away crop prospects for this year and damaging or destroying as many as 100 homes.

A group of 25 farmers sued the federal government Tuesday, arguing that their land had been taken without adequate compensation.

“

We need to determine what type of Afghanistan we plan to leave in our wake so that we may actually achieve these objectives.”

— Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass.

U.S. commanders fear squandering hard-fought battlefield gains, particularly those achieved with the addition last year of an extra 30,000 American troops.

They now face a spring offensive by the Taliban, whose goal remains undermining the Afghan government, discrediting its security forces and driving out U.S. troops.

Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., reflected a wider skepticism about remaining heavily involved in Afghanistan when he said Tuesday that he had not imagined at the outset of the war in October 2001 that U.S. troops would still be there — “with no end in sight, even after the death of Osama bin Laden.”

Top administration offi-

cials have vowed not to abandon Afghanistan, even as the U.S. military role shrinks, and their central rationale is not changed by the elimination of bin Laden. They point to 1989 and the U.S. decision to walk away from Afghanistan after the Soviet occupation collapsed; chaos ensued, the Taliban rose to power and alQaida had a launch pad for global terror.

The worry is that the pattern would be repeated if the U.S. left anytime soon, giving terrorists a haven and compelling a future president to intervene yet again.

“Nobody wants them (U.S. troops) to leave and come home more than I do, but I don’t want them to go back,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, an outspoken supporter of Obama’s plan to keep troops there until at least 2014, told reporters. His advice to the president: “Stay with the plan you got.”

Coincidentally, just one day before Obama gave the go-ahead for the nighttime raid on bin Laden’s compound in Pakistan, he announced a new U.S. lineup

in Afghanistan, with Lt. Gen. John Allen replacing Gen. David Petraeus as the military commander and Ryan Crocker succeeding Karl Eikenberry as the top U.S. diplomat. But Obama did not say this meant a change of war strategy.

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., acknowledged the likelihood that bin Laden’s death would increase public pressure to bow out.

“Some people will ask why we don’t pack up and leave Afghanistan. We can’t do that,” said Kerry, who will travel to Afghanistan in the coming weeks. “But it is no longer enough to simply lay out our goals. We need to determine what type of Afghanistan we plan to leave in our wake so that we may actually achieve these objectives.”

Bin Laden’s death also highlighted rising U.S. frustration with Pakistan, whose fragile government is heavily funded by Washington as a hedge against militants. Pakistan has a history of supporting some militant groups that target outsiders, including U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan.

As gas prices rise, small cars lead U.S. auto sales

By Dee-Ann Durbin and Tom Krisher Associated Press Writers

DETROIT — Small cars sold briskly in the U.S. last month, as gasoline prices approached $4 a gallon and some buyers worried about shortages of Japanese-made vehicles.

Analysts expected overall industry sales in the U.S. to increase 19 percent from April of last year.

Sales last month were led by highly fuel-efficient models such as Chevrolet’s Cruze, Hyundai’s Elantra and Ford’s Focus Don Johnson, GM’s vice president of sales and marketing, said consumers shifted into smaller cars starting in March and the trend continued in April. Unlike 2008, when a rise in gas prices caught the industry offguard, GM and other companies now have good small cars and can quickly boost production of them, he said.

“We’re probably the best prepared ever for this shift,“ he said.

The average price of a gallon of gas this week is $3.96, up $1.06 from last year. Gas is already over $4 per gallon in New England, the Midwest and on the West Coast, according to federal statistics.

While widespread vehicle shortages related to the March 11 earthquake in Japan have yet to hit the U.S. mar-

ket, they’re expected to by the end of May. That may have spurred people to buy cars like the subcompact Honda Fit in April. On Monday, Honda Motor Co. warned dealers that the 2012 Civic, as well as other models, will be in short supply this summer.

It also pushed back the fall launch of the CR-V small SUV by at least a month.

So far, GM says the earthquake won’t affect its profit, although it has had to slow production because of a lack of parts from Japan. Chrysler Group LLC said this week that the earthquake will cost it between 50,000 and 100,000 vehicles this year, but it won’t have an impact on earnings.

Hyundai Motor Co.’s sales jumped 40 percent, largely because of fuel-eff icient models such as the Elantra, which gets an estimated 40 mpg on the highway. The car’s sales more than doubled. Combined with the Sonata midsize car, the two made up 7 1 percent of Hyundai’s sales.

General Motors Co. sold more than 25,000 Chevrolet Cruze compact models in April, the best performance for the 36-mile-per-gallon car since it was introduced in October. Ford said sales of its new Focus compact rose 22 percent from last year.

GM said its U.S. car and truck sales jumped 26 percent in April, led by the shift to small cars.

Bin Laden’s death is a game-changer

EDITORIALS

AAU status The University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s removal from the Association of American Universities should be cause for concern at Kansas University.

K

ansas University officials should be in a state of shock about the University of Nebraska-Lincoln being kicked out of the prestigious Association of American Universities. The AAU represents the cream of the cream of the nation’s top research universities.

If KU officials and alumni are not shocked or concerned, they should be. AAU officials periodically conduct reviews of current members and “in-depth” reviews in instances where there appears to be a “significant and sustained disparity between the mission or accomplishments of a member institution and that of other members of the association.”

There are 62 AAU members, and association officials say they do not intend to expand the membership. Only three new universities have been added to the organization in the last 10 years — Texas A&M, Stony Brook University and Georgia Tech — and many prestigious schools are knocking on the AAU door seeking admission.

It is likely Nebraska will not be the only school expelled from the organization. It is believed several other current AAU members are close to being kicked out. There is no justification for KU officials to believe their school’s AAU membership is safe or guaranteed.

According to several news reports, Nebraska had survived an attempt to push it out of the AAU in the late 1990s, but university officials were notified this past November that the school had been selected for an “in-depth” review. Rules of the AAU require a two-thirds majority vote of the group’s members to end an AAU membership.

Nebraska Chancellor Harvey Perlman apparently fought hard to keep his school in the AAU. He wrote to the AAU review committee members, “As I know you must realize, being dropped from membership would have a far greater impact on the institution than not being invited to membership in the first place. We believe that this places at risk much of the progress the university has experienced during the last decade.”

AAU President Robert Berdahl said it was not an easy decision to terminate Nebraska’s membership. “The University of Nebraska is a fine institution and has been a valued member of the AAU since 1909. This process has been difficult and, frankly, painful for the association and its members. The association followed its policy and the process conducting this review and in carrying out this decision.”

An example of the bitterness or rivalry that exists among some Big 12 Conference schools is revealed in some news reports out of Nebraska, which are quick to point out the chairman of the AAU review committee is Larry Faulkner, president emeritus of the University of Texas. One Nebraska writer noted, “this embarrassing blow has been struck just before Nebraska enters the Big Ten after abandoning the Big 12.” Faulkner delivered the AAU “eviction notice” on April 7.

Nebraska officials make it quite clear one of the main reasons, if not THE main reason, they were leaving the Big 12 was that they believed their school was better than the other Big 12 universities and would be a better fit in terms of academics, research and athletics with the Big 10. They thumbed their noses at Big 12 schools.

At the time Nebraska announced it was leaving the Big 12, school officials touted their AAU membership and said this was one of the factors that made NU so attractive to the Big 10. All other Big 10 schools belong to the AAU. Complacency is one of the most deadly afflictions that can infect an individual, a business, a sports team or even a university. The consequences can be devastating, and a tremendous amount of time, effort and money often is required to regain momentum, excellence and success. This is particularly true in the highly competitive environment in most every facet of today’s society.

The Nebraska action makes it clear AAU officials are studying how member schools measure up in terms of strength and breadth of research, federal research dollars, faculty credentials, awards and citations.

How does KU measure up in these areas?

Various reports indicate other AAU schools are likely to be given serious reviews. Could KU be one of those institutions, and could the university’s drift in recent years turn out to be terribly costly for KU and the state?

“Al-Qaida. Bin Laden. Old news. This is the time to move forward.”

So said President Obama’s counterterrorism adviser John Brennan on Monday, and his words couldn’t be more true.

For Americans, for President Obama, for the landscape of security threats we face, for the war in Afghanistan, bin Laden’s death is a game-changer. Yes, there is still a terrorist threat, but the death of this killer changes so much in such fundamental ways.

For Americans, this news is like the lancing of a huge boil that

finally allows a wound to heal.

Bin Laden has been an American obsession for a decade, a reminder that, for all the blood and treasure expended in the Iraq and Afghan wars, the mastermind of 9/11 remained free, and we couldn’t catch him.

He had come to symbolize a nagging sense that America no longer had the competence to manage its security. We let him elude us in Tora Bora. We made a mess in Iraq, and failed to stabilize Afghanistan after a decade of fighting. And all the while, bin Laden was supposedly laughing at us from his cave.

The success of this complex mission restores belief in American competency — among our own citizens, and abroad, where that belief was also eroding.

The cool nerves of the Navy SEALs, who switched to a backup helicopter after the first one suffered mechanical failure, are inspirational. They also help erase the memory of the U.S. helicopter

PUBLIC FORUM

Look at facts To the editor: Before any more decisions are finalized by our school board, I implore the entire community to read and analyze the data in the literature cited by the elementary school task force. The data does not support the plans to build schools for a population of 500-600 students. The task force’s own reports include observations that do not support such a plan, for example, the level of noise at Sunflower, which has over 400 students.

These conflicts must be addressed. (And aren’t we always telling our students to use their critical thinking skills?) The threatening tone used by Mr. Doll, promising the community that consolidation will occur even if voters refuse to pass the bond, only further detracts from an honest conversation. A conversation is what should be occurring, one that is free of rhetoric and threats.

failure that doomed the Iran hostage rescue three decades ago.

Besides giving Americans a much-needed morale boost, the death of bin Laden finally allows us to see him for what he was, a leader far less invincible than myth would have it. The image of the indomitable ascetic has been smashed as we learn he was living comfortably in an urban mansion.

Moreover, the timing of the takedown reminds us that he was in hiding even as the revolutions sweeping the Arab world were carrying on without him.

These revolts were not inspired by al-Qaida. Nor have the grassroots groups fighting Mideast autocrats looked to the group for inspiration. Bin Laden had become almost irrelevant to the upheavals shaking the Middle East.

That is not to say he was an insignificant figure. He was the world’s most important terrorist leader, and provided the inspiration and ideology for al-Qaida central and its many global franchises. But his death finally frees us to put this terrorist movement in perspective.

Al-Qaida is not (and was not) invincible. Bin Laden’s likely successor, Ayman al-Zawahiri, is not a fighter, but an intellectual who is unpopular with many jihadis, and is unlikely to inspire recruitment the way his predecessor did.

With bin Laden gone, “we have

wail.” An alternative has been suggested and tried out at some events: “Hook some horns and listen to the Red Raiders wail.”

I think that substitute line is not very satisfactory for two reasons. First “Red Raiders wail” is a tongue twister, as can be easily demonstrated by trying it out. It comes out variously as “wed waders rail,” “red waders wail” etc. More substantively, Texas Tech is a relatively recent KU rival. Not to demean their importance, but I think it would be more appropriate to cite one of our historical Big 8 rivals.

The first line of the bridge of our fight song is directed at Missouri: “Got a bill that’s big enough to twist the Tiger’s tail.” So how about citing K-State in the next line: “Catch some ‘Cats and listen to the K-Staters wail”? Thereby our fight song would highlight our two prime conference opponents — Missouri and K-State — and eliminate the tongue twister.

a lot better opportunity to destroy the organization and to create fractures within it,” says Brennan.

Yes, terrorism will remain a threat in many parts of the world and reprisals for his death are likely. And al-Qaida groups in Yemen and North Africa will still try to mount operations in Western countries. But with their corporate chief gone, and virtually irreplaceable, it is easier to combat these smaller terrorist franchises in their local or regional context. The problem becomes more manageable.

The GWOT (global war on terror) is over, as we knew it. The problem has been cut down to size.

Of course, this leads us to questions about the war in Afghanistan.

This war was billed by Obama as aimed at destroying al-Qaida, and creating enough stability in Afghanistan to prevent the return of the Taliban, who might offer shelter to al-Qaida again.

We all knew the real problem lay in Pakistan, where al-Qaida leaders were hiding, even though Pakistan’s intelligence agency denied it. Now they can’t deny it anymore.

Thus, the death of bin Laden opens up whole new possibilities for ending the Afghan war.

For one thing, it puts enormous pressure on Pakistan’s military and intelligence officials to stop protecting militant leaders.

Bin Laden was living in Abbottabad, a large city near Pakistan’s

capital and home to many retired military officers, along with its top military academy.

It beggars belief that Pakistani intelligence was unaware of his presence. As Brennan noted, “It is inconceivable that bin Laden did not have a support system in a country that allowed him to stay there for a long time.”

The killing of bin Laden makes clear to Pakistani officials that if they won’t go after top Islamist leaders themselves — whether al-Qaida or Afghan Taliban — we will. It also opens up new opportunities for a political solution to the Afghan war.

How so? Now that the United States has proven it can and will find extremists who kill Americans, Afghan Taliban leaders may feel more vulnerable and more willing to negotiate for a peace settlement under terms that Afghans find acceptable. And the operation may jolt the Pakistanis into finally realizing that they can’t maneuver their Taliban protégés back into power in Kabul.

Perhaps this is too much to hope for. Yet bin Laden’s death clears the air for more realistic thinking, about terrorism, Afghanistan — and our ability to cope with our security problems. Bin Laden is dead and America is finally free of his shadow. Time to move on.

A true Kansas leader For the past 10 years or so, I have been having lunch with Glee Smith every Thursday. Glee often jokes that someday I’ll have to write an account of these lunches, rather like Mitch Albom’s “Tuesdays with Morrie.”

Leaving aside the fact that I cannot write anywhere near as well as Mitch Albom, the fact is that these lunches have been one of the best experiences of my life.

I decided to write about them in this column because last week marked a milestone in Glee’s life.

On April 29 he celebrated his 90th birthday. As far as I’m concerned it wasn’t only a personal milestone, it was a milestone for Kansas because Glee has served the state of Kansas nearly all of his 90 years.

Although Glee Smith is now a lawyer at the local Barber Emerson law firm, he practiced law in Larned for many decades. In that role he served the people of Larned and western Kansas as an advocate, counselor and friend.

But Glee didn’t limit his activities to his home area. He held virtually every important position in Kansas state government except for governor. Most importantly, he served as president of the Kansas Senate for many years.

In that capacity Glee led the Republican delegation and was influential in guiding Kansas through the 20th century. He is a graduate of Kansas University’s School of Journalism and School of Law. Never has KU had so loyal and supportive an alumnus. He has served as president of the KU Alumni Association and of the KU Endowment Association. To this day he is actively involved in KU affairs and serves on multiple committees. If ever there was someone who bleeds crimson and blue, it’s Glee.

Just this past month the Journal of the Kansas Bar Association featured an article on Kansas lawyers of the “greatest generation,” those who served this country during

Mike Hoeflich World War II. Of course, Glee is there; he was a navigation instructor for the U.S. Army.

It’s easy in the current atmosphere of cynicism and distrust of government to forget that men and women have dedicated their lives to the betterment of the people of Kansas since territorial days. This year, of course, is the sesquicentennial anniversary of Kansas statehood. This is the year that we are celebrating the lives of the founders of this great state. I think it’s rather appropriate that Glee is celebrating his 90th birthday in the same year as Kansas celebrates its 150th birthday.

It boggles my mind, I have to admit, that his life spans 60 percent of the history of the state. I also have no doubt that, without his decades of service, Kansas would have been a poorer place.

And I think we all need to celebrate the lives of those men and women who have given so much to this state and to the nation, as Glee Smith has done.

My “Thursdays with Glee” have been tours of Kansas and U.S. history led by the memories of one of those who helped to make it. His wit, his wisdom, his integrity, have been the high point of my life for the past 10 years. So, I want to wish him a belated happy birthday and say that I look forward to writing about him and his achievements in coming years in 2021 when he celebrates his centennial.

LAWRENCE ALMANAC Through 8 p.m. Tuesday.

Progress seen in Kansas budget talks TOPEKA — Kansas legislators negotiating over a $14 billion budget made progress Tuesday toward resolving differences between the House and the Senate, preserved state funding for arts programs and considered approving additional bonds for Statehouse renovations.

Three senators and three House members continued talks over the spending plan for the fiscal year beginning July 1.

They had three rounds of negotiations on the 82nd day of their annual session, out of 90 scheduled — compared to only one in the previous four days.

Leaders of each chamber’s negotiating team said they’re pleased by the movement they saw Tuesday, but they still have dozens of issues to resolve.

The next budget will eliminate a projected shortfall that has approached $500 million and could leave a small cushion of cash reserves. Overall spending is likely to drop between 5 and 6 percent, or by $770 million to $870 million, with much of the decrease reflecting the disappearance of federal economic stimulus funds.

Lawmakers can’t wrap up their business for the year until the budget is finished.

KANSAS RUNNER JAKE MARASCO LOOKS to round third after an RBI single by teammate Brandon Macias during the sixth inning against Wichita State. The Jayhawks won, 74, on Tuesday at Hoglund Ballpark.

Kansas baseball stops the bleeding

WBC WELTERWEIGHT CHAMPION VICTOR ORTIZ WAVES to the Hoglund Ballpark crowd after being introduced during Tuesday night’s Kansas baseball game against Wichita State.

WBC welterweight champ representing Kansas well Next to the choice Merryl Streep’s Sophie had to make, the saddest moment in cinematic history just might be Marlin Brando’s Terry Malloy measuring himself as a total failure as a boxer and a human being with the words, “You don’t understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been some somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let’s face it.”

Victor Ortiz, WBC welterweight champion of the world, is the antiTerry Malloy. Ortiz has class. He was a contender. Now he’s a champ.

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

He is somebody. He’s a winner who had every excuse in the world to be a loser.

Please see ORTIZ, page 4B

Ortiz plans to fight Mayweather Jr. WBC welterweight champion Victor Ortiz, a native of Garden City, told the Journal-World on Tuesday night that he plans to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. on Sept. 16 in Las Vegas.

“I just need to look at the contract and make sure everything is OK,” Ortiz said. “It’s not 100 percent sure yet, but that’s what I’m setting my sights on.”

A lifelong Jayhawk fan who trains in Ventura, Calif., and enjoys spending his free time in Lawrence, Ortiz said he told his manager, Rolando Arellano, that he wanted to announce the fight in Lawrence and said Arellano will be in town today.

Ortiz (29-2-2) won the crown with a unanimous decision victory against Andre Berto on HBO on April 16.

Ortiz signed with Oscar De La Hoya’s “Golden Boy Promotions” in 2008. He said De La Hoya “is interested in coming to a basketball game in Allen Fieldhouse.

De La Hoya also has discussed the possibility of Ortiz fighting in Allen Fieldhouse, Livestrong Sporting Park or the Sprint Center, according to Ortiz.

“That would be so awesome,” Ortiz said of fighting in Allen Fieldhouse.

The Kansas University baseball team ripped a pair of runscoring doubles and delivered seven RBIs in all, but two defensive gems may have been the difference in KU’s 7-4 victory against Wichita State Tuesday at Hoglund Ballpark.

“We couldn’t play better defensively than we did tonight,” KU coach Ritch Price said.

That was true throughout the game, as the Jayhawks continually got into jams and then found a way to get out of them. Still locked in a scoreless tie in the fourth, KU’s starting pitcher Alex Cox coerced the Shockers to ground into a double play that ended a bases-loaded threat.

That was just one example of team defense making a difference. There were a couple of bigtime individual moments, as well.

The first came from shortstop Brandon Macias, with KU leading, 6-0, in the fifth. Macias’ diving stop of a sharply hit ball in the hole turned a potentially big inning into one in which the Shockers plated just two after diving to his right and throwing to third from the ground to get the lead runner. The next came in the seventh, with KU leading 7-2. Reliever Scott Heitshusen inherited a bases-loaded, oneout scenario and surrendered a run on the first pitch. One batter later, Tyler Coughenour lifted a high fly-ball to deep right, which looked as if it would be deep enough to clear the bases and tie the game. But KU outfielder Casey Lytle quickly broke into a dead sprint and made a diving, behind-his-head grab for the second out of the inning. The Please see KU BASEBALL, page 4B

Twins’ Liriano throws no-hitter CHICAGO (AP) — Francisco Liriano was running low on energy in the ninth inning. A no-hitter within reach but his pitch count climbing, he relied on teammates to help him complete the best game of his career.

When shortstop Matt Tolbert grabbed Adam Dunn’s liner for the final out, completing the Minnesota Twins’ 1-0 win over the Chicago White Sox, Liriano was mobbed on the mound.

“To be honest I was running out of gas,” he said. “I just thank my teammates that they made some great plays behind me tonight.”

Liriano (2-4) walked six and struck out two in his first com-

plete game in 95 major league starts. The 27-year-old left-hander, who reached the big leagues in 2005, matched his career high with 123 pitches.

“I can’t explain it. I feel so nervous and so happy right now,” Liriano Liriano said. “I can’t explain my feeling right now.”

LHS baseball sluggish in loss

By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

In the Lawrence High dugout, there’s a small sign with a message that echoes the Lions’ aggressive mentality. It reads, “So what? Next pitch.”

After a sluggish 7-2 loss to Olathe Northwest at home on Tuesday, coach Brad Stoll might have needed to alter the message.

“We gotta flush out all those pitches and say, ‘So what? Next game,’” Stoll said.

The Lions (10-6) picked up just four hits in their first Sunflower League loss of the season. The Ravens scored runs in five differ-

ent innings to take the road victory.

Senior centerf ielder Ross Johnson said he thought the team was ready to go from the first pitch.

“But we didn’t really have much energy to start off with,” Johnson said.

Just three days ago on the same field, the Lions knocked off perennial Missouri power Rockhurst.

Tuesday’s game was about as different as it could’ve been.

Stoll was asked if he was disappointed with how his team played.

May is cruelest Chicago’s Rose wins NBA MVP month of all for Seattle

By Steve Kelley The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — For the legion of NBA fans still living in Seattle, May is the cruelest month. It’s is the month of memories. The month of Jack Sikma and Fred Brown. The month of Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp.

The month of Lenny Wilkens and George Karl.

May is when the Sonics used to own this town. It was the best of months and the worst of months.

In May, the Sonics won Western Conference championships. In May, they began playoff runs that took them to the NBA Finals in 1978, ’79 and ’96.

But May also was the month they lost to the Lakers in the 1980 Western Conference finals and the month they were upset in the first round by Denver in 1994.

This May, however, could be the cruelest month of all for the tens of thousands of Seattle fans who still love the game and still wait for its return.

The Sonics are playing the Grizzlies in the Western Conference semifinals. Or, at least, the team that used to be in Seattle and has moved to Oklahoma City is playing the team that used to be in Vancouver and has moved to Memphis.

Imagine what the Northwest would feel like this month if these teams still were a 1 mere 2 ⁄2 hours apart. Imagine the buzz in this city if Game 2 had been played in Seattle, instead of Oklahoma City on Tuesday night.

And this May, Seattle gets to watch while Sacramento gets what it didn’t get in 2008 — a stay of execution; one more season to find the funding to save the team, build a new arena and keep the Kings in town.

Now, let’s not be naive about this. The Kings are staying in Sacramento because the NBA (think Los Angeles Lakers owner Jerry Buss) wasn’t keen on the idea of the Maloof brothers moving their team to Anaheim.

Probably this extra season will only give NBA fans in the California state capital the chance to say goodbye. There will be rallies and editorials imploring the league to stay in town, just as there were in Seattle.

At the end of home games, fans will chant, “Save Our Kings,” the same way Seattle fans chanted “Save Our Sonics.”

Almost certainly, 2011-12 will be the Kings’ last season in Sacramento unless, of course the league locks out the players. But at least its mayor, former NBA all-star guard Kevin Johnson, is fighting to keep his team.

In the meantime, the league continues to insult Seattle. The NBA Store is advertising an Oklahoma City Thunder “Trefoil Snapback Hat.” On the front of the blue and black hat it reads, “Thunder.” On the back it reads, “1967.”

What? This idea of a shared history between OKC and Seattle is a joke.

On the television broadcasts of Thunder playoff games, TNT and ESPN throw up graphics illustrating the “Thunder” playoff history. Those graphics include the Sonics’ years.

“You can’t take another city’s stats,” analyst Charles Barkley, always a staunch Seattle supporter, said recently on NBA-TV. By now the passion to return the NBA to Seattle should have cooled. It hasn’t.

A video of a protest at former Sonics owner Howard Schultz’s book signing last month in Issaquah got 45,000 hits on the “Sonicsgate” YouTube channel. Its video of Barkley defending Seattle got 15,911 views.

“I miss Seattle,” Barkley hollers.

And since it began the channel about a year and a half ago, “Sonicsgate” has had almost 500,000 viewers, including 119,000 since April 8.

Seattle still cares about the NBA. But May reminds us that the games are being played elsewhere. It reminds us of the new arena the city should be building, but isn’t. It reminds us that Kevin Durant plays in Oklahoma City, not Seattle.

May reminds us of all that we had.

And all that we’ve lost.

LINCOLNSHIRE, ILL. — Right from the start, Derrick Rose wondered why he couldn’t be the MVP. It turns out, nothing could stop him.

Rose officially became the NBA’s youngest MVP on Tuesday and joined Michael Jordan as the only Bulls player to win the award, which was no surprise given his spectacular season and Chicago’s leap to a league-leading 62 wins.

He has a ways to go before he catches Jordan, who won five MVPs and led the way to two championship three-peats, but he sure is off to a good start.

“I’m not even touching that man right there,” Rose said. “I’m far away from him. If anything, it would be great to be close to him.

Rose This is a different team, a different era.”

In his third year, the dynamic point guard led the Bulls to their best season since the championship era.

The 22-year-old Rose got 1,182 points and 113 first-place votes from a panel of media voters, supplanting Wes Unseld as the youngest to win the award with a runaway win. Orlando’s Dwight Howard (643 points) finished second, Miami’s LeBron James was third, the Lakers’ Kobe Bryant was fourth and Oklahoma City star Kevin Durant finished fifth.

A product of Chicago’s South Side, Rose established himself as one of the top players in the league after going from Rookie of the Year to All-Star in his first two seasons. He took another step this year with one of the best all-around performances by a point guard.

He averaged 25 points and 7.7 assists while leading Chicago into contention for its first Scottie Pippen championship since the Jordan-S era.

NBA Source: Griffin to be named ROY LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin will be named the NBA’s Rookie of the Year today, a person familiar with the news told The Associated Press.

The person spoke Tuesday night on condition of anonymity because the formal announcement hadn’t been made.

Griffin’s victory is absolutely no surprise after his spectacular season. The No. 1 draft pick out of Oklahoma in 2009 easily led all rookies in scoring (22.5 points) and rebounding (12.1 rpg) after missing all of last year with a broken kneecap.

Heat’s Bosh sues ex-girlfriend LOS ANGELES — Miami Heat star Chris Bosh is suing the mother of his child for appearing on a reality TV show called “Basketball Wives,” which he said intrudes on his private life.

Bosh claims in a lawsuit filed Monday in Los Angeles federal court that Allison Mathis and Shed Media are trying to unjustly enrich themselves by using Bosh’s name and intruding into his private affairs.

He acknowledges he and Mathis have a child together.

NFL Court sets appeal date: June 3 MINNEAPOLIS — A federal appeals court agreed Tuesday to fast track the NFL’s request to put its labor lockout in place until a new deal is finally worked out.

The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis set a June 3 hearing, with 30 minutes of oral argument for each side, before Judges Duane Benton, Kermit Bye and Steven Colloton.

TENNIS Man charged with stalking Serena PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLA. — A man was charged with stalking tennis star Serena Williams after police say they caught him trying to walk into her gated subdivision in South Florida.

Palm Beach Gardens police said 40-yearold Patenema Ouedraogo told officers he was going to Williams’ home Monday night “because he loves her” and “he knows the feelings are reciprocal.”

An attorney for Williams said he had recently obtained a restraining order after Ouedraogo tried to contact the player three times.

It was unclear if Ouedraogo has an attorney.

He is being held on $25,000 bond.

Baffert feeling pressure before Derby L O U I S V I L L E , K Y . (AP ) — Bob Baffert only wants to be at the Kentucky Derby with horses that have a legitimate shot at winning. He thought he had three this year, now the Hall of Fame trainer is down to one.

And even Baffert doesn’t sound convinced that Midnight Interlude can get it done in Saturday’s 137th Derby.

The colt lacks the seasoning that many of Baffert’s previous entries have had over the years.

Midnight Interlude didn’t compete for the first time until Jan. 29, and he’ll try to become just 1 the second horse to win the 1 ⁄4mile Derby without racing as a 2-year-old. Apollo did so in 1882.

“Hopefully, we can break that,” he said. “Right now you need horses that are moving forward and can go the distance and he should.”

Baffert’s higher-prof ile Derby candidates, The Factor and Jaycito, were done in by a

VERITAS CHRISTIAN

poor performance and an injury, respectively.

The Factor used his jawdropping speed to cruise to vic1 tory by 6 ⁄4 lengths in the Rebel Stakes before he finished seventh in the Arkansas Derby.

That result gave Baffert a bad feeling about trying him in the Kentucky Derby.

“It was very tempting because that horse is so talented,” he said. “He’s such a fast horse, but I didn’t want to ruin him. He’s a franchise horse, I have to take care of him.”

The Factor is at Churchill Downs this week, although he won’t return to racing until sometime this summer.

Jaycito was forced out of the Santa Anita Derby with a foot injury, but Baffert won anyway when Midnight Interlude edged Comma to the Top by a head. Jaycito won’t be ready in time for the Preakness on May 21, either.

“It’s a shame because he

would have thrived here,” Baffert said. “It’s so tough to get here and you never know who you’re going to get here with.”

The white-haired trainer with three Kentucky Derby trophies to his credit — but none since 2002 — didn’t expect it to be with Midnight Interlude.

The colt didn’t race as a 2year-old because he was slow in developing. He even spent time at low-level Fairplex in Pomona, home of the Los Angeles County Fair. He finished third in his career debut on Jan. 29 and followed up with a second-place showing in February.

Midnight Interlude is one of three horses in the Derby with just four career starts; probable Derby favorite Dialed In and Animal Kingdom are the others.

Midnight Interlude is coming into the Derby off two wins in his last two races, although Baffert said the colt is still learning how to run.

MISSOURI BASKETBALL COACH FRANK HAITH SIGNS a basketball for a young fan at a Tiger Caravan event last Thursday in Mendon, Mo.

BIG 12 BASKETBALL

Faith in Haith?

———

Mizzou’s new coach recruits followers MENDON, MO. (AP) — Taking over a successful college basketball program as the new guy is never easy. Competing with live coverage of the NFL Draft when your new school has two top 10 picks? More like downright unfair.

That’s the scenario new Missouri basketball coach Frank Haith found himself in during a recent visit with Tiger boosters at the Mizzou Caravan’s annual pork-chop dinner and Chariton County whistlestop of Mendon, population 208.

His brief remarks were cut short by raucous cheers from the TV-watching crowd when the Jacksonville Jaguars selected former Missouri quarterback Blaine Gabbert.

That was moments after the San Francisco 49ers selected Aldon Smith, Gabbert’s former teammate.

Haith didn’t seem to mind.

The former Miami coach — whose hiring was greeted with disappointment by Missouri diehards hoping for a bigger name — realizes that he has plenty to prove after seven seasons in Coral Gables with just one NCAA Tournament berth and a losing Atlantic Coast Conference record.

“People want to know who you are, how you are going to do things and what’s in your character,” Haith said in an Associated Press interview.

“That’s the passion I felt ... I got the message — they want to win big.”

Haith has spent most of the past month on the road, from New York and Massachusetts to Washington, D.C. and North Carolina, hustling to fill three available scholarships for next season and gain verbal commitments for 2012, when six roster spots will be open.

He’s also focused on recruiting a fan base, with recent trips to alumni and fan clubs to places as disparate as Chicago and Mendon.

His life story is one that resonates among Missouri fans who still revere Norm Stewart, the Shelbyville native who coached Missouri for 32 years

Liriano CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Morel grounded to shortstop and Matt Tolbert made a onehop throw that first baseman Justin Morneau scooped. Juan Pierre walked and Alexei Ramirez popped to shortstop.

Liriano fell behind Adam Dunn 3-0 in the count, then got a pair of strikes. After a foul ball, Dunn lined out to Tolbert.

“I thought it was a base hit,” Liriano said. “When I saw him catch it I was so excited.”

Dunn dropped to 0-for-16 against left-handers this season.

“As soon as I hit it, I saw him, and it was right to him,” Dunn said. “That’s pretty much the story of the day.

There were some balls that, again, they made some great defensive plays.”

Liriano, the reigning AL comeback player of the year, was backed by Jason Kubel’s fourth-inning homer. He threw just 66 pitches for strikes but kept Chicago offbalance in a game that took just 2 hours, 9 minutes.

In his previous start, he

after starring for the school’s baseball and basketball teams.

Haith, 45, was born in New York City, one of 10 children, but raised by his grandmother in Burlington, N.C., beginning at age 5. His mother died when Haith was 12, and his father remained distant.

Three younger siblings later joined Haith and older sister Patricia in North Carolina.

Encouraged by a Pop Warner coach who was also the school’s athletic director, Haith remained in Burlington to attend Elon College, at the time an NAIA school. An injury during the summer of his freshman year derailed his plans to play football.

He instead found an identity in the coaching fraternity, filled with the father figures he lacked. Haith became a student assistant at Elon, living in a gym janitor’s closet when his scholarship couldn’t cover more traditional student housing.

“As I look back on it, I learned and grew from that experience,” he said. “It’s a big part of who I am.”

He soon followed the peripatetic life of a college assistant coach, relocating every few years while learning from more established basketball minds, from Dave Odom at Wake Forest to Rick Barnes at Texas. Two other former bosses are now top NBA executives: Tony Barone Sr. (Texas A&M), player personnel director for the Memphis Grizzlies; and Kevin Eastman (North Carolina-Wilmington), a Boston Celtics assistant.

Haith’s humility won over the Mendon crowd of Missouri farmers, teachers and small-town bankers.

“I’m thrilled,” said Paul Steele, a former University of Missouri curator and Chillicothe farmer. “I really believe he has the integrity that we in Missouri expect in our coaches.”

Haith replaced Mike Anderson, who left Missouri for Arkansas after five seasons, three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances and 77 wins over the past three years.

Haith went 129-101 in seven

lasted just three innings in an 8-2 loss to Tampa Bay. The shutout lowered his ERA for the season from 9.13 to 6.61.

Liriano, 3-0 against the White Sox last season, walked Pierre leading off the first and Carlos Quentin with one out in the second, but both were erased on double plays.

Chicago put two on in the fourth, and center fielder Denard Span raced into leftcenter to grab Quentin’s long drive.

With two outs in the seventh, third baseman Danny Valencia went behind the bag and into foul territory to grab

seasons at Miami, his first head coaching job, including 21-15 in his final stint with the ACC school. The Hurricanes went 43-69 in the conference under Haith, whose best ACC mark was 8-8.

Missouri had hoped to lure Purdue coach Matt Painter, who instead signed a contract extension and received a sizable raise from the Big Ten school.

Gary Link, who played for Stewart and helped Missouri athletic director Mike Alden with the coaching search, said that Roy Williams at North Carolina, Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski and Gary Williams of Maryland each highly recommended Haith.

Link said Haith will quickly win over skeptical and uncertain Tiger fans once they get to know him better. Trips to far-flung places like Mendon certainly don’t hurt.

“We’re the University of Missouri,” he said, emphasizing the second word in the school’s name. “We play better to all the outstate areas than we do even in Kansas City or St. Louis. Mendon. Brookfield.

Marceline. The university is of Missouri. Out here, we’re the only show in town.”

One potential recruit was expected on campus today.

Isaiah Philmore, a 6-foot-7 forward who averaged 15.3 points and seven rebounds as a sophomore for Towson, will make an official visit, his Delawarebased AAU coach said.

Missouri could also be in the running for Rodney Purvis, a 6-foot-4 guard from Raleigh, N.C. The high school junior verbally committed to Louisville but changed his mind after Haith hired assistant Tim Fuller, Purvis’ primary recruiter.

Haith said he doesn’t expect to lose any current Missouri players, including junior forwards Kim English and Laurence Bowers, who declared for the NBA draft but can return to school since they didn’t sign with agents; and freshman point guard Phil Pressey, whose father was Anderson’s college teammate and lifelong friend.

Quentin’s hard hopper and then made a strong throw to first.

Minnesota turned its third double play in the eighth, when Morneau took an offline throw from second baseman Alexi Casilla and umpire Paul Emmel called Gordon Beckham out — replays appeared to show Morneau missed the tag.

Ramirez hit two of the hardest balls off Liriano. He lined out to third in the first and sent a hard liner foul past third in the sixth.

Edwin Jackson (2-4) lost his fourth straight start despite allowing six hits in eight innings. Then with Arizona, Jackson no-hit Tampa Bay last June 26 despite walking eight.

It was the seventh no-hitter for the Twins-Washington Senators franchise and the f irst since Eric Milton’s against the Angels on Sept. 11, 1999. It was the first no-hitter in the major leagues since Philadelphia’s Roy Halladay’s against Cincinnati in last year’s NL division series.

The White Sox were no-hit for the 13th time, the first since they were beaten by Kansas City’s Bret Saberhagen on Aug. 26, 1991.

League play will begin the week of June 3

Royals upend O’s in 10 KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Jeff Francoeur has gained the reputation of doling out the hardest blows during the Royals’ five celebrations after gameending hits this season.

Francoeur was on the receiving end Tuesday night as his sacrifice fly in the 10th inning — he hit a tying homer in the sixth — lifted Kansas City to a 6-5 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night.

“I’ll take that any day of the week for a walkoff,” Francoeur said. “I beat up on people pretty good after walkoffs.

I got beat up pretty good tonight. I went to the fetal position.”

After an 0-6 trip to Cleveland and Texas, the Royals have won four straight at Kauffman Stadium, where they are 13-5.

“With our road trip the way it was, it’s huge to come here and get these four games,” Francoeur said. “We feel if we’re close in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings we’ve got a shot to win the game. We seem relaxed at home. We want to find a way to play better on the road.”

Jason Berken (0-2) led off the 10th by walking Gordon on four pitches. He advanced to third on Billy Butler’s groundball single to center.

“We’ve been preaching first and third all year and Gordon went first to third,” Francoeur said. “It’s a great move, an aggressive move so we’d have a couple of chances to win it.

I was the guy who hit the flyball, but those two guys are the ones who set it up.”

Rookie left-hander Tim Collins (2-1) struck out Luke Scott, the only batter he faced, to pick up the victory. It was an intriguing match up.

Collins entered the game with left-handers hitting .321 off him, plus he had walked 12.

Scott, however, had just one hit in 15 at-bats off left-handers before Tuesday “I knew he’s a good fastball hitter,” Collins said. “Once I got strike one, I was able to mix in curveballs. His numbers against curveballs are far below what they are against fastballs, so that was my approach, get strike one and use my curveball. It worked.

“I don’t want to say it’s a well deserved win,” he added.

“It would have been nice to see (starter Jeff) Francis get the ‘W,’ but that’s what happens, you come in and throw to one batter and get the win.”

Scott hit a three-run homer, his fourth in six games, to tie the score at 3 in the fourth.

Guerrero walked in the sixth, his first walk of the season in his 115th plate appearance, an Orioles record to start the season.

KANSAS SHORTSTOP BRANDON MACIAS THROWS over his shoulder to first during the eighth inning against Wichita State on Tuesday at Hoglund Ballpark.

KU baseball CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

highlight grab limited WSU to just two runs in the inning and KU took a 7-4 lead into the final two innings.

“I told our guys everybody in the dugout needed to touch Lytle when he came in,” Price said. “The bases were loaded, he makes the diving catch, takes three runs off the board and it could be 7-7. And obviously Macias was special with the glove, too.”

Marasco (2-for-4, 2 RBIs) also sang Lytle’s praises for the game-saving grab.

“That was a great catch,” he said. “You know, our outfield’s so good, you almost aren’t surprised by it when that happens.”

Macias, who finished 2-for5 with an RBI and a run scored, said he has focused more on fielding in recent weeks.

“Defense always is going to win you games,” Macias said.

“I’ve been struggling with the bat a little bit this year and I’m trying to do something just to help out, anything I can.”

After Marasco’s double in

the fourth put Kansas ahead, 2-0, the Jayhawks jumped on the Shockers again with four more in the f ifth. Jimmy Waters, James Stanfield and Lytle picked up RBIs in the inning, and first baseman Zac Elgie, known more for driving the ball, dropped a picture perfect bunt down the thirdbase line to keep the rally going.

“It turned out really nice,” said Price of Elgie’s bunt. “In fact, I think now he thinks he’s a skills guy.”

The victory improved the Jayhawks to 21-24 overall and snapped a four-game losing streak. Even better was the fact that Tuesday’s victory helped remove the sting from a heartbreaking sweep at the hands of Texas Tech last weekend.

“The thing that was important today was that we found a way to win and we flushed what happened (last weekend),” Price said. “We couldn’t go in there tomorrow (KU and WSU play again at 6:30 tonight in Wichita) on a fivegame losing streak and then head into the weekend to play a team (Oklahoma) who’s in the top 10 in the country. We had to stop the bleeding.”

“I think disappointed would be an understatement,” Stoll said. “I’m a little perturbed right now.”

The Lions had just one hit through four innings and didn’t have more than four batters in an inning until the fifth.

Third baseman Shane Willoughby and catcher Drew Green had RBIs in the sixth inning, but the rally came much too late.

Starting pitcher Garrett Cleavinger, usually a steadying force on the mound, was wild from the start. His first pitch of the game drilled the backstop.

Later in the first inning, Cleavinger walked the Ravens’ Austin Fisher. After a single by O-Northwest’s Tyler Day, Fisher scored from second base on two pitches that squirted by Green.

Cleavinger walked six batters in 3 2⁄3 innings, allowing four runs to score.

“Just an off day,” Stoll said.

“He was absolutely brilliant last Tuesday, and he’ll be brilliant next week.”

LAWRENCE HIGH STARTER GARRETT CLEAVINGER DELIVERS a pitch to an Olathe Northwest batter during the second inning Tuesday at LHS. Stoll likes the fact that his team gets to play again at 5:30 today at home against Shawnee Mission Northwest.

The game was supposed to be played as part of the River City Baseball Festival, so it won’t count in the Sunflower League standings.

Johnson said it’s still important for the Lions to pick up a win for a couple of reasons.

First, the Lions want to host a regional, so their overall record matters. Second, the Lions want to get back on track before next week’s games against Free State and

the start of postseason play.

“Tomorrow’s def initely going to test us,” Johnson said.

Stoll will call a pregame meeting with his team and try to figure out just what went wrong on Tuesday.

“I have all the confidence in the world that they will come out hungry, focused and ready to play,” Stoll said.

“Offensively, we’re struggling,” Hill said. “We’re inconsistent. I was proud of the kids and the fact that they battled back to tie it in the seventh (at 4-4).”

The Falcons scored a run in the bottom of the seventh to win.

Free State will play host to Rockhurst (Mo.) at 4:30 p.m. today in a makeup from a River City Festival game that was rained out.

OLATHE — Cody Kukuk went 3-for-4 with a double, a triple and two RBIs, but Free State High’s baseball team fell, 5-4, at Olathe South on Tuesday.

“It’s little things that are creeping up and getting us,” Free State coach Mike Hill said. “Four of the five runs they scored they got as a result of walks and errors.”

HEAT 102, CELTICS 91

Heat Miami jumps ahead of Boston, 2-0 making Celtics look old

By Dave Hyde Sun Sentinel

MIAMI — One by one, they made Boston’s stars grow old before us. LeBron James made a quick cut and — ouch! — Boston’s Paul Pierce left for a while with a foot injury.

Dwyane Wade made a magic move and — where’d he go? — Boston’s Kevin Garnett was a lost child in the mall, turned completely around, as Wade blew by for a layup.

Wade then made another move, hitting the air brakes.

Boston’s Ray Allen couldn’t stop. Allen fell to the ground, like a supplicant, watching Wade’s three-point shot swish.

In Tuesday night’s 102-91 Heat win, the Heat’s Big Three played Boston’s Big Three like youth plays age. It was that simple. And that convincing. And perhaps that conclusive if the four-day rest before Game 3 doesn’t help Boston.

Once upon a time, these Celtics played for these spotlit moments, tough and unshakable, the perfect blend of veteran nerves and talent.

Through two games it’s been the younger, more athletic Heat who have done it.

There was Garnett going up with the ball in the fourth quarter and his elevator stopped two floors short.

LeBron was there waiting, just as James was everywhere in this second half.

SWAT! Wade finished with 35 points, including a stretch of 10 straight points. But it wasn’t just him.

The Heat’s Big Three of LeBron, Wade and Chris Bosh? Eighty points.

The Celtics’ Big Three of Garnett, Pierce and Allen: 36.

“Being down 2-0 doesn’t scare us, doesn’t make us nervous,” said Allen, who finished with just seven points. “It just means we’re down 2-0.”

Maybe so. But there are certain losses that resound more than others. There are certain nights that sit in your head, your joints and your bones. This was one of them.

They couldn’t stop Wade’s attacks, couldn’t control James’ strength. And the play of the night? It wasn’t from the Big Three.

In the fourth quarter, with the Heat leading by five, reserve center Joel Anthony tipped an offensive rebound from Big Baby Davis. He then tapped it to James under the basket. Dunk. Foul.

Crowd went crazy.

Joel Flippin’ Anthony.

All night long, the Heat were on the verge of busting free in this game. And every time Boston would do enough to stay close with surprise people. Jeff Green had 10 first-half points. Jermaine O’Neal made big plays.

But when LeBron hit that succeeding foul shot, the Heat had an eight-point lead and didn’t look back. They closed it out. This wasn’t November anymore. It wasn’t even March.

“We’ve made a major step forward,” Bosh said. “We’re a lot better than we used to be.”

This four-day break until Game 3 is the Celtics’ best friend right now.

“In this case the rest is good,” coach Doc Rivers said. “It’s very good for us.”

Will it be enough? There will be a lot of talk of the Heat doing only what it had to so far, that the series doesn’t start until the home team loses. That’s all true. And, heaven knows, just when you think this Heat team is figured out this year, a surprise is waiting.

But through two games, the Heat looks younger and more athletic. Boston looks old. And that probably won’t change even when the arena does.

MIAMI (AP) — With the outcome decided in the final seconds, LeBron James walked toward Mario Chalmers to begin his version of a celebration.

He playfully punched his teammate twice in the chest.

Fitting, because James and the Miami Heat have now landed two blows against the Boston Celtics.

James scored 24 of his 35 points in the second half, Dwyane Wade added 28 and the Heat used a late 14-0 run to pull away and beat the aching Celtics, 102-91 , in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series on Tuesday night.

“Feel good about it,” James said. “Series is far — far, far, far — away from over. It’s really just beginning for us.”

James shot 14-of-25 from the field, and logged 44 minutes with no turnovers. Chris Bosh finished with 17 points and 11 rebounds for Miami, which leads the best-of-seven, 2-0.

Game 3 in Boston isn’t until Saturday night, and the Celtics may be particularly thankful for the break.

Rajon Rondo played through a balky back to score 20 points and add 12 assists for Boston, which got 16 points from Kevin Garnett and 13 from Paul Pierce — who retreated to the locker room for treatment on his strained left Achilles’ in the first half.

Ray Allen was held to seven points, and left with what he said was a bruised chest cavity courtesy of an elbow from James in the third quarter.

“Being down 2-0 doesn’t scare any of us, doesn’t make us nervous,” Allen said. “It’s just an opportunity to come out shining.”

Boston tied the game at 80 on a pair of free throws by Pierce with 7:10 left. The Celtics missed their next six shots and Miami pulled away, taking command of both the game and the series.

“That’s our staple. We

know the only way for us to win games, especially in the playoffs, is to play defense,” James said. “Everyone has each other’s back. If one guy gets beat, another steps up.

They made a run, a heck of a run ... but we just kept grinding, kept playing our principles, and we finally wore them down.”

Even for a franchise with such fabled history as the Celtics, an 0-2 deficit represents a colossal challenge.

This is now the ninth time Boston has dropped the first two games in a best-of-seven series. In the previous eight, the Celtics prevailed only against the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1969 NBA finals.

And it’s something this group of Celtics has never faced before, either.

The last time Boston lost the first two games of a playoff matchup was in 2004, when it was swept by Indiana.

The current core of Celtics had lost Game 1s four other times before this series, then bounced back to win Game 2 each time, against Chicago and Orlando in 2009, then Cleveland and the Lakers in 2010.

Not this time.

“Nothing we can do about it,” Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. “We’ve got a third game and we’ve got to take care of that.”

THUNDER 111, GRIZZLIES 102

Bench leads OKC to even series, 1-1 OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Kevin Durant scored 26 points, James Harden led an outburst

by Oklahoma City’s bench with 21, and the Thunder evened their series with Memphis by beating the Grizzlies, 111-102, in Game 2 on Tuesday night.

After scoring just 16 points in a Game 1 loss, the Thunder’s bench tripled that amount and put Oklahoma City firmly in control with an 18-6 run to start the fourth quarter.

Russell Westbrook scored 24 and his backup, Eric Maynor, added 15 for the Thunder.

Mike Conley scored 24 for Memphis, which cut a 21point, fourth-quarter deficit to six in the final minute.

Game 3 is Saturday night in Memphis.

Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol combined to make just five of 22 shots for 28 points — just over half their total from the opener. The interior tandem helped Memphis dominate the paint for 52 points in Game 1, but the Thunder outscored the Grizzlies, 38-34, this time by deploying frequent doubleteams.

The Thunder finally shook free from Memphis with the bench’s big run, featuring three three-pointers by Maynor and seven points from Harden.

H a rd e n h i t t h re e f re e t h rows — i n c l u d i n g o n e after Darrell Arthur was called for a technical for bumping him in retaliation — then turned a steal into a fast-break layup. Maynor’s third three gave Oklahoma City its first 20-point lead at 94-74 with 7:27 remaining, and Daequan Cook followed about a minute later with another three to bump the lead to 21.

When Maynor and Cook finally were pulled in favor of Durant and Westbrook with

just under 5 minutes left, the pair got a standing ovation.

Memphis tried to mount a comeback, though, with Conley hitting two three-pointers and converting a three-point play. Tony Allen’s two free throws got the Grizzlies as close as they’d get at 104-98 with 46 seconds left, following a 19-5 rally.

The Thunder lost starting power forward Serge Ibaka — who blocked the most shots in the NBA in the regular season — to an apparent right leg injury with 2:09 remaining in the game. He hobbled to the locker room after fouling Conley and crashing to the floor along the baseline.

Ibaka had been late out of the locker room at halftime after hurting his knee late in the first half, but rode a stationary bike in a tunnel before returning to the game in the third.

Randolph, the star of Game 1 with a playoff career-high 34 points, made only two of his 13 shots and scored 15 points.

Gasol was 3-for-9 for 13 points and also hauled in 10 rebounds. Randolph had nine boards.

The Grizzlies shot 44 percent and couldn’t find enough firepower to counter after the Thunder hit their first four three-pointers in the flurry to start the fourth quarter.

This French toast Become a Master Food volunteer can travel on the go Q: Cooking Q&A

By Alison Ladman

For The Associated Press

French toast can be a wholesome, heart-warming breakfast, but the need to sit down with a plate and fork can sometimes hinder the experience. Cooking French toast in muffin cups is one solution.

This version includes a layer of maple breakfast sausage, but you can leave that out if you prefer, or substitute a few berries or thinly sliced apples.

FRENCH TOAST MUFFINS 7-ounce package maple breakfast sausage 12 slices whole-wheat sandwich bread 4 eggs 3/4 cup milk Pinch salt 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 cup maple syrup 2 tablespoons maple sugar

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

In a large skillet over medium-high, cook the sausage until lightly browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.

Using a round 2-inch cookie cutter, cut 4 rounds from each slice of bread.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, cinnamon and maple syrup.

Dip the rounds of bread in the egg mixture and place 2 rounds in the bottom of each muffin cup. Crumble about 1 tablespoon of the sausage into each cup. Add 2 more rounds of egg-dipped bread to each of the muffins. Sprinkle the tops with maple sugar.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown. Serve warm. Serves 12.

sandwiches. A “real” panini will have nice little grill marks across it, and my way won’t, but it’s a small price to pay for not buying an expensive and bulky unitasker to find a place for in my small kitchen. We don’t need no stinking panini press. We don’t need no stinking grill lines.

About three minutes, and I peeked. Perfect toasty tops and bottoms. An irresistible, hot sandwich.

I served this with a side of grapes and a little orzo salad.

The orzo salad seemed like the right thing to go with this hot and salty sandwich.

ORZO SALAD 1/2 box Orzo (small, rice-shaped pasta) 1/2 cucumber, cut into bite-sized chunks 2/3 cup feta cheese Handful of grape tomatoes, halved 1/2 cup small black olives 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 1 tablespoon olive oil Salt and pepper to taste 4 large basil leaves, chiffonade

●

This is a quick and happy pasta salad because the orzo is tiny and cooks and cools in no time, and there’s very little chopping to do. It can be done in advance and kept in the fridge. It stays delicious for days.

I’m so happy we found that brick. It’s handy around the kitchen, and doubles as a weapon in a way that a fancy panini press could never imitate. One bar’s trash is another kitchen’s treasure.

Margaritas CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10B

peach margarita once that was really killer, too.”

Also, while you’re changing things up, it’s OK to do fun things like add carbonated water to your mixture.

Alvarez says he does this with several of Tortas Jalisco’s flavored margaritas to give them some fun fizz.

Play around with the liquor, too. Alvarez says he has his family in Mexico keep him up on what tequilas and other liquors are popular locally. He says often the ones that are popular in the United States aren’t the ones that are favored in Mexico.

Baker adds you should also consider the quality of the liquor, no matter the brand.

“I go by the same rule with wine, you don’t cook with something you wouldn’t drink. But at the same time, you’re talking about a cocktail, so it’s blended,” he says. “I would say, mediumto high-end tequila is all you should use.”

Don’t forget the salt.

Whether or not you like salt on the rim of your glass, Alvarez says to make sure to add a pinch to each drink you pour.

“All the margaritas have to have a pinch of salt,” he says after rattling off the ingredients of his rum-based margarita. “That’s what brings (out) the flavor of the margaritas.”

juice Lime wedges for rim

For an authentic presentation, garnish the rim of the glass with salt. Begin by filling a wide, shallow dish with 2 to 3 mm of fine salt. Cut a lemon in half and rub the cut side around the rim of the glass.

Then, holding the glass upside down, dip it delicately into the salt, so that it adheres to the rim to a thickness of 2 or 3 mm. Turn the glass upright and wait a few minutes.

WATERMELON MARGARITAS 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sugar, divided 4 cups red watermelon (seedless), cut into 2 inch chunks 2 limes, cut in half 1/2 cup tequila 1/4 cup orange liqueur, such as Grand Marnier or Triple Sec 2 cups ice cubes Limes, cut into wedges for garnish Red watermelon balls for garnish

Place 2 teaspoons sugar in a small dish. Rub rim of margarita glasses with 1 cut half of lime, and then roll glasses in sugar to coat.

Combine juice of limes, watermelon, 2 tablespoons sugar, tequila and orange-flavored liqueur with ice in a blender and blend until smooth. Fill blender with ice cubes and blend until mixture is a slush consistency. Fill prepared glasses with margaritas; garnish each glass with a lime wedge and watermelon balls on a skewer and serve immediately.

Pizza dough enhances tasty dipping dogs

By Alison Ladman

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

For The Associated Press

To help start summer right, we decided to come up with a fun and delicious new way to enjoy that classic summer nosh — the hot dog.

So instead of grilling the hot dogs, then slapping them in buns, we wrapped pizza dough “buns” around the hot dogs, then grill them. The result is a wonderfully crispy grilled bread surrounding a juicy dog. And since these hot dogs are perfect for dipping, we created a trio of condiments to get you started.

HOT DOG DIPPERS For the chipotle ketchup: 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, minced 1 tablespoon adobo sauce 3/4 cup ketchup 1 teaspoon smoked paprika For the citrus mustard: 1/2 cup brown mustard 1/4 cup mayonnaise Zest of 1/2 lemon Zest of 1/2 orange 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 2 tablespoons honey 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar For the pimento cheese relish: 1/4 cup mayonnaise 4 ounces cream cheese, softened 1/4 cup finely grated cheddar cheese 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 1/4 cup sweet pickle relish 4-ounce jar chopped pimento, drained 1 teaspoon hot sauce

HOT DOG DIPPERS: Instead of grilling hot dogs and serving them on buns, try wrapping pizza dough “buns” around the hot dogs and then grilling them.

For the hot dogs: 20-ounce package refrigerated

Heat a grill to medium-high.

To prepare the chipotle ketchup, in a small bowl stir together the minced chipotle, adobo sauce, ketchup and paprika.

To prepare the citrus mustard, in a small bowl stir together the mustard, mayonnaise, both zests, the black pepper, honey and vinegar.

To prepare the pimento cheese relish, in a small bowl, blend the mayonnaise with the cream cheese and cheddar until smooth. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, relish, pimento and hot sauce.

To make the hot dogs, divide the dough into 8 pieces.

Roll each piece into a snake 24 inches long. Wrap each hot dog with one of the lengths of dough, spiraling the dough around the length of the hot dog. Place the wrapped hot dogs onto a tray. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each wrapped hot dog with a bit of the oil.

Grill for 12 to 15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until golden brown on all sides.

Serve with the condiments in small cups for dipping. Serves 8.

Make after-school snacks more of a mini-meal

By Heidi Stevens McClatchy Newspapers

Somewhere between Oreos and braised oxtail stew lies the perfect after-school snack. Not too much sugar, not too much prep and not too likely to inspire turnedup noses.

“An after-school snack should boost their fuel for whatever your kids are doing the rest of the day, whether it’s homework or baseball,” says Lisa Barnes, author of the Petit Appetit cookbooks, including “Eat, Drink and Be Merry: Easy, Organic Snacks, Beverages and Party Foods for Kids of All Ages” (Perigee Trade).

“Think of it as a mini-meal more than just a snack — equal parts fat and protein and carbs.”

So if carrot sticks are your thing, add a side of hummus or white bean dip. If your kids devour apple slices, set out

sunflower seed butter or yogurt for dipping.

Barnes also likes snacks that kids have a hand in preparing.

“A favorite one at my house is a parfait. They can layer plain yogurt, which they sweeten with a little maple syrup and cinnamon, chopped up berries or whatever fruit is in season and then some low-sugar cereal or granola or broken up graham crackers.”

Make-your-own trail mix is another fave. “Put out a muffin tin and fill each cup with something different — raisins, dried cranberries, apricots, coconut, chocolate chips, broken up pretzels,” Barnes suggests. Let them play mix-master with the ingredients.

If you want to kick it up a notch (you know, turn on the stove), Barnes likes this make-ahead granola recipe (found on Page 73 of “Eat,

| 9B.

Drink, and Be Merry”) for when she’s hosting play dates.

CHEWY GRANOLA BARS 1 1/3 cups rolled oats 1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds 1/2 cup oat bran 1 1/2 cups crisp brown rice cereal 1 cup dried cranberries 2 tablespoons crystallized ginger, chopped 1/2 cup brown rice syrup 1/4 cup turbinado sugar 1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Grease an 8-inch square glass baking dish, and set aside.

Mix oats, seeds, oat bran, cereal, cranberries and ginger in a large bowl.

In a small saucepan, combine rice syrup, sugar and salt and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar melts, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat; add vanilla.

Pour over the oat mixture

and stir with a rubber spatula until all is moist and coated.

Spread mixture into prepared dish. Cover the mixture with a piece of parchment paper and press down firmly with your hands or a weight.

Refrigerate if necessary to get the mixture to stay together.

Let sit until firm, cut into pieces. Makes 16 two-inch bars.

“THE FLYING FORK”

a blog by Megan Stuke

The panini: a pressing issue

T

he other day as we prepped for a garage sale, Mr. Meat and Potatoes was cleaning out his closet and trotted out with a brick, wondering if he should keep it. The brick, he said, was from the original floor of the Red Lyon Tavern, our favorite watering hole. “Of course you should keep it,” I said. I had great plans to make that seemingly useless, albeit sentimental, hunk of clay into a practical and economical kitchen tool. And, thus, our new panini press was born.

Who doesn’t love a panini?

And let’s be clear here: I’m talking about the American use of the word, similar to a “toastie,” wherein a sandwich is grilled in a press. But what I don’t love is having to buy a special piece of equipment and store it, just for a certain kind of sandwich.

That’s just not my style.

So when that brick I figured came to my Jerry and attention, I Sue, the snatched it right up. I fig- owners of the ured Jerry Red Lyon, and Sue, the owners of the would be happy to Red Lyon, would be know that happy to brick is living know that brick is living on in our on in our house, house, servserving up ing up great great sandwiches. sandwiches.”

Traditionally, you’d do a panini with some Italian meats (salami, mortadella, etc.) and maybe some tomato, provolone and basil, but I had a hankering for a muffaletta — the sandwich born in the Big Easy. To make a “real” muffaletta you need special bread — a Sicilian-style bread very similar to foccacia (So similar, in fact, that I can’t tell the difference.). But I didn’t have any foccacia, plus, I wanted to smash my bread with a brick. So I used a nice Italian loaf with a crispy crust, sliced relatively thin.

First, I heated up two burners. On one burner I set a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat, and on the other I heated a medium-sized cast iron on high.

In the big skillet I melted a tablespoon of butter.

While the skillets got good and hot, I assembled my sandwiches. Atop a slice of bread, I layered a couple of pieces of genoa salami, a piece of good deli ham, a slice of mortadella, a slice of provolone and some of my favorite green olive salad, which is the hallmark of the muffaletta.

Into the larger frying pan they went, and then we brushed their tops with a little butter so they’d get brown and toasty.

And then I plopped the brick into the cast-iron skillet and dropped the thing on top of the

AN ASSORTMENT OF MARGARITAS: mango, lime and strawberry, prepared at Tortas Jalisco, 534 Frontier Road.

MARGARITA MADNESS

By Sarah Henning

sarah@lawrence.com

No matter your heritage, it seems nearly everyone loves a good margarita.

And there’s no better day to end up with rock salt on your lips than May 5, the celebratory holiday marking the Mexican victory over the French at the battle at Puebla in 1862.

If you’re planning to spend this Cinco de Mayo at home rather than jockeying for placement at one of Lawrence’s fine Mexican eating and drinking establishments, take these tips from the pros on how to make a fabulous, well-balanced, knockyour-socks-off margarita.

Find your ratio. The first trick is to figure out exactly

how strong you want that margarita of yours to be.

Angel Alvarez, owner of Tortas Jalisco, 534 Frontier Road, says he uses five parts liquid to one part alcohol in most of the margaritas on his menu.

Meanwhile, Ken Baker, executive chef and proprietor at Pachamama’s, 800 N.H., says he goes by a general rule of thumb of one part alcohol, one part sweet and one part sour.

Use real ingredients. You know that margarita mix that comes in unrefrigerated plastic containers? Don’t use it, Baker says.

“The pre-made juices are usually a very small percentage of real juice. They could contain corn syrup or all kinds of other fillers,” Baker says. “So,

generally, if you want to feel good about what you’re drinking, it’s best to make everything from the ground up as the drinks are ordered.”

Stephanie Bell, a server and bartender at Pachamama’s, suggests that if you’re going to throw a margarita party, borrow or invest in a juicer to keep things coming. Though she says at the restaurant they squeeze the juice by hand.

Punch up the flavor. Speaking of juice, it doesn’t just have to be lime juice.

“We’ve done a passion fruit margarita, we’ve done a pomegranate margarita, we’ve done a grapefruit margarita,” Bell says.

“We’ve actually (did) a spicy

Mother’s insults may be early sign of dementia

Dear Daughter: Your mother may be exhibiting early signs of dementia, one of which is the inability to censor what comes out of her mouth. Ask if you can accompany her to her next doctor’s appointment. That will give you an opportunity to mention this possibility to the doctor and request an evaluation. Perhaps if you can keep in mind that her insults are not entirely within her con-

that I was not turning out to be one of her success stories.

I feel worse now than I did before.

My own family has been less than supportive. I have chosen to stay in this marriage because divorce would cause a great deal of emotional pain to our children. We are no longer intimate, and there are days when I feel so empty, I can’t even cry. I want Jennifer to know she is not alone. — Caged

Dear Annie: This is in response to the letter from “Jennifer,” who is troubled by her safe-but-boring marriage.

Her words tugged at my heart.

I am also in my mid-40s and in a dull marriage. My husband is a decent man, but selfcentered. At his hands, I was the victim of a single incident of marital rape, which he claims to not remember. I sought therapy, and my counselor said my husband, not a violent man, may have been in a dissociative state and unaware of his actions. I insisted my husband also have therapy, but he discontinued treatment because he didn’t think he had much to work on.

I left psychotherapy after nearly 18 months when my therapist began to complain

“Secrets of the Dead” (7 p.m., PBS, check local listings) unearths one of the great mysteries of archaeology and Chinese history. “China’s Terracotta Warriors” opens up the tomb of a conqueror who died 200 years before the time of Christ, a man who united his country and who changed a way of life and death for his kingdom.

Qin Shi Huangdi would bring seven warring kingdoms together to form China’s kingdom and then anoint himself first emperor of China. As death neared, Qin commissioned an “army” of 8,000 clay soldiers to protect his tomb in the afterlife. Until Qin’s time, a ruler’s funeral would mean ritual slaughter for the entire royal entourage, as upwards of thousands of courtiers were required to accompany their master to the grave.

This “Secrets” speculates on what the clay soldiers looked like when first crafted and interred and shows them painted and fully armed for the first time on television. Archaeologists speculate on the technology required to create 8,000 soldiers in less than two years. One expert contends that the production may have resembled a kind of assembly line — beating Henry Ford’s Model T facility by more than 2,000 years.

Tonight’s other highlights ● The top five compete on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox). ● A decade before her stint as a singer/dancer on “30 Rock,” Jane Krakowski co-starred in the 1991 dance showcase “Stepping Out” (6 p.m., TCM) with Liza Minnelli. ● Claire and Gloria’s plan for a serene Mother’s Day run amok on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC). ● “Nova” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) ventures to the ancient Andean city of Machu Picchu and recently discovered graves from the Incan era. ● “Custer’s Last Man: I Survived Little Bighorn” (8 p.m., History) explores new theories about the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876. ● “MythBusters” (8 p.m., Discovery) evaluates theories about an ancient torpedo and puts a truck filled with wine to the test. ● A super saver tries to support two families via “Extreme Couponing” (8:30 p.m., TLC). ● A fan convention becomes a dangerous place for the cast of a remake of “The Goonies” on “Breaking In” (8:30 p.m., Fox). ● Cooper revisits a case from his past on “Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior” (9 p.m., CBS). ● A troubled couple falls under suspicion after their baby is found abandoned on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” (9 p.m., NBC).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Wednesday, May 4: Never underestimate what you have to offer, as it is far more than you are aware. The opportunity for growth and gain emerges, as you build on one characteristic after another. If you are single, you have much more going for you than you realize. Others clearly are magnetized by your presence. If you are attached, the two of you tend to talk and share more. Gemini sometimes draws out an innate possessiveness.

Dear Annie: My mother is in her late 80s and is becoming increasingly difficult.

She’s always been rather critical, but now she is downright rude and insulting. It’s as though being old gives her the right to say anything that pops into her head without consideration for anyone else’s feelings.

My husband tells me to ignore her comments. I know he’s right, but old habits die hard, and I still try to defend myself, and also my family when she insults them. I know she isn’t going to change, so somehow I have to find a better way to respond to her.

Please give me some strategies to control my instinctive defensive reactions — without starting an argument, being “hateful” (her word) or walking away, which would be tantamount to declaring war.

— Dutiful Daughter
