TOPEKA — Kansas’ leading organization that advocates for victims of sexual and domestic violence has parted ways with the state welfare agency, saying new requirements imposed by Gov. Sam Brownback’s administra-

Group says new requirements harm victims of abuse tion on an assistance program would put victims in greater danger.

Joyce Grover, executive director of the Kansas Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence, said Friday the new requirements “violate the

best interests of survivors of sexual and domestic violence.”

Laura Patzner, executive director of the Great Bend Family Crisis Center, was more blunt. “I am not going to put people at risk for dollars. I will

not choose to do a contract with someone that I feel is not appropriate and would quite simply be more dangerous,” Patzner said.

The dispute is over a contract between the Kansas Department of

people who always get hit up for fundraising — the golfers, runners, bikers,” Bisel said. The “48” championship, named for its number of teams and $4,800 in prizes, has become a popular local event — “a truly town and gown event” — with KU students volunteering and community members showing up hungry to support Sertoma’s charitable efforts.

As for the secrets to the perfect ribs or roast, participant Donna McClure said the “golden rule” is to “know your cooker.” McClure, from Lenexa, knows her cooker well: She won the first Sertoma cookoff 14 years ago and has strong showings ever since.

TOPEKA — The Kansas House on Friday advanced a wide-ranging anti-abortion bill, and supporters of the measure offered a preview of a fight they intend to have with the Kansas University Medical Center.

State Rep. Lance Kinzer, R-Olathe, speaking against an amendment to the bill that was sought by KU, said the school was using tax dollars to train medical residents in abor- Kinzer tion procedures.

“What we should have done is say it is not the public policy that we are going to pay residents with taxpayer dollars to kill babies. That is what we should’ve done,” said Kinzer. “No taxpayer dollars to kill babies,” he repeated, which drew applause from anti-abortion legislators.

State Rep. John Grange, R-El Dorado, who was presiding over the House chamber at the time reminded legislators they are not supposed to applaud speakers during debate. “Please, let’s maintain respect for the institution,” he said.

The dispute has been over a provision in the bill that says no state employee can perform an abortion.

According to KU, doctors in training at the Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan. are considered state employees, and accreditation requirements say those who are being trained as obstetrics-gynecologists must gain experience with induced abortion and complications because of abortion, unless they have a religious or moral objection. The KU residents gain this experience at facilities not owned or operated by the state.

In negotiations over the past few weeks, legislators amended the bill to bypass this dispute by designating the OB-GYN medical residents weren’t state employees. But the amendment would expire in June 2013.

On Friday, state Rep. Steve Johnson, R-Assaria, sought to remove that “sunset” provision and bypassing the issue permanently. This would help KU remove this issue from any accreditation discussion, Johnson said.

A COLLECTION OF IMAGES TAKEN FRIDAY PORTRAY A DAY OF PREPARATION for the 14th annual Lawrence Sertoma Club 48 barbecue cook-off at Broken Arrow Park, 31st and Louisiana streets. Today, 48 teams will compete for cash prizes as well as ribbons. The public can sample meats prepared by the teams during the People’s Choice portion of the competition that lasts from 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. and then again from 12:30 p.m. to 2 p.m.

Area cookers share the secrets of barbecue for a good cause

By Alex Garrison acgarrison@ljworld.com

When barbecue is your craft, sometimes things get a little saucy.

Josh Burnett and Todd Kofford are Lawrence neighbors who, in 2009, decided to take their meats to the next level with regional cook-off championships.

“We decided to see if we could compete with the big dogs,” Burnett said.

This weekend, they’ll be putting their not-sosecret method — their mantra is “keep it low and slow” — to the test for a good cause. The team, with support from wives, friends and kids, is one of 48 competing in the 14th annual barbecue championship sanctioned by the Kansas

COOK-OFF SCHEDULE Today’s schedule for the 14th annual Sertoma Club barbecue cook-off:

7 a.m. to 9 a.m.: Breakfast at the Wakarusa Fire Station, near 31st and Louisiana; $6 donation

11 a.m. to 2 p.m.: City Barbeque Society and put on by the Lawrence Sertoma Club.

Organizer Dee Bisel proposed the event with the disclaimer to the Sertoma board (a group that’s been around since 1929 and that stands for “Service to Mankind”) that “we won’t make money for the first two years.” But, she said, she wanted a fundraiser that would be more fun — and rewarding — than selling light bulbs.

People’s Choice award tasting, Broken Arrow Park. $6 donation for 24 samples; tasters then vote for their favorite

2:30 p.m.: Awards ceremony and raffle giveaway winner announced After nearly a decade and a half, Bisel said, they’ve managed to raise more than $180,000, all of which goes back to Lawrence charities. Their main benefactor is the Schiefelbusch Clinic at Kansas University, which provides a summer camp for children with communication difficulties.

Doyce Gene Bates, 57, Oskaloosa, died Thursday, May 3, 2012 at his home.

Funeral services will be at 10:30 AM Monday at the Barnett Family Funeral Home, 1220 Walnut, (Hwy 59) Oskaloosa. Visitation will be from 5:00 to 7:00 PM Sunday.

John F. Steineger.

John Francis (Jack) Steineger, a third-generation resident and lifelong supporter of Wyandotte County, who as a State Senator earned statewide recognition for his environmental efforts, died May 1 of natural causes. He was 87.

Mr. Steineger served as a State Senator from Wyandotte County from 1964 to 1992, helping to pass the first state air pollution law and establish the Tallgrass Prairie as a natural preserve. He was named Conservation Legislator of the Year by the Kansas Wildlife Federation in 1974 and was honored with a 1975 Air Conservation Award by the Kansas Wildlife Federation for “outstanding contributions to the wise use and management of the nation’s natural resources.” He was selected Outstanding State Senator by the Eagleton Institute of Politics at Rutgers University in 1972 and served as Senate minority leader from 1976 to 1988. In 1982, he received a Legislative Improvement Award from the Ford Foundation.

“The knowledge and the friendship of a public servant who was as dedicated as Jack to his constituents in Wyandotte County and who so exemplified that through his actions is something I treasure to this day,” said Edward F. Riley, retired chair of the U.S. Parole commission and former State Senator from Leavenworth, who was a close friend from the days he served with Mr. Steineger in the State Senate.

“He was able to sponsor and get adopted legislation related to pari-mutuel issues and liquor by the drink that was progressive in the state of Kansas and resulted in the immense development that is still ongoing today in Wyandotte County. The city of Kansas City is what it is today because of his efforts.”

In 1949, Mr. Steineger married Margaret Ruth Leisy of Dallas. After a honeymoon in New Orleans, they moved to Washington D.C. where he served in the office of the U.S. Department of Labor. He was a member of the U.S. Department of State Diplomatic Corps from 1950 to 1958, serving as a cultural attaché in first Germany and later Iraq. His service allowed him to travel extensively in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy. He returned to Wyandotte County in 1957 and joined the Finigian, Poizner and Tucker law firm before opening his own law office, Steineger and Reid, in 1963. He served as a Juvenile Court Judge in 1958 and Wyandotte County Chief Prosecutor in 1960.

He served on the boards of many civic organizations, including as president of People-to-People and the

Kansas City Ballet Association. He served on the Council of State Governments Intergovernmental Relations Committee, the Kansas Arts Commission, the Kiwanis Youth Committee, the Boy Scout Board, and the American Royal Association. He received numerous awards and honors from many clubs and organizations.

Mr. Steineger graduated from Wyandotte High School in 1942 and attended the University of Southern California in 1942-43, but his education was interrupted by World War II. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1943 and was a commissioned ensign by the end of his service in 1946.

While in the Navy, he completed Midshipman’s School. After the war, he enrolled at the University of Kansas and joined the Phi Delta Theta fraternity. He earned a bachelor’s degree and a Doctor of Laws in 1949.

He was a lifelong supporter of KU. Mr. Steineger was an avid skier, tennis player and sailor. For many years, he owned a succession of sailboats that were moored in the Caribbean Islands, where he sailed extensively. He also sailed in the Mediterranean and on the Eastern Seaboard. He enjoyed gardening and especially loved the springtime, when Wyandotte County flowers were in bloom.

Mr. Steineger leaves his wife, Margaret, of 62 years, sons John and Sen. Chris Steineger, daughters Cynthia Steineger Blair and Melissa, and grandchild Kisha. He was preceded in death by his parents, John F. Steineger and June Wear Steineger.

Visitation will be 4 to 6 p.m. Sunday, May 6, at the Joseph A. Butler & Son Funeral Home, 19th and Minnesota Ave., Kansas City, Kan. Graveside services will be at 3 p.m. Monday, May 7 at the Highland Park Cemetery. A memorial service will follow at 4 p.m. and reception at 5 p.m. at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 1300 N. 18th St., Kansas City, Kan. Contributions in his memory may be made to the Grinter Place Friends, 1400 S. 78th St., KCK 66111, St. Paul’s Episcopal Church or other Wyandotte County organization.

Former Kansas University and current NBA basketball player Marcus Morris has entered into a diversion agreement with prosecutors related to a February incident at a Lawrence nightclub.

Morris, 22, currently a member of the Houston Rockets, received a misdemeanor battery citation in Lawrence Municipal Court.

Police said that early on Feb. 26 a male employee of The Cave, 1200 Oread Ave., alleged he was punched by a man after a verbal dispute turned physical. It was also alleged that another man punched the employee from behind, police said at the time.

Morris and Julius K. Harris, 23, of Philadelphia, were both given notices to appear in municipal court.

Lawrence City Prosecutor Jerry Little said Friday that Morris had filed a diversion agreement and waived his right to a trial. Morris agreed to pay a diversion fee of $300 and $60 in court costs. He also agreed to have no contact with the victim and to not return to The Cave. Little said the diversion term runs for 12 months, meaning the case eventually will be dismissed if Morris fulfills those terms and stays out of further legal trouble during that time.

Little said prosecutors did notify the victim in the case that Morris applied for diversion, but they did not hear back from him.

Harris also has submitted a diversion application, but it has not yet been processed, Little said.

Dean Clifford Brown Funeral services for Dean Clifford Brown, 49, Lawrence, will be held Monday, May 7, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. at Warren-McElwain Mortuary in Lawrence. Burial will follow in Oak Hill Cemetery.

He was born September 12, 1962 in Lawrence, Kansas the son of Marvin Clifford and Wyona M. (Reavis) Brown.

He worked as a Print Tech for Berry Plastics for the past 15 years. He was a member of the Mt. Oread Aerie #309 Fraternal Order of Eagles.

He married Kathryn Kay Finfrock on July 6, 2002 in Lawrence. His dear loving wife, Kathy preceded him in death on January 17, 2011. He was also preceded in death by his parents, a brother, Dallas Brown and step father Ellis Chandlee.

Survivors include three daughters, Crystal Grant and husband, Andrew, KaLynn Matile, Amber Slusser, all of Topeka; one son, Lucky Pollet, Topeka; one brother, Steve Chandlee, Lawrence; two sisters, Deborah Sue Goos and hus-

Man ordered to stand trial on rape charge A Douglas County judge Friday ordered a 36-year-old Lawrence man to stand trial on a rape charge related to a domestic incident in April in the 2400 block of Ousdahl Road.

District Judge Sally Pokorny said the case prosecutors presented at the hearing was “thin,” but she ruled prosecutors met the burden of probable cause based on an interview Lawrence police officers had with the defendant.

Assistant District Attorney Catherine Skinner said the man, speaking through a Spanish interpreter, told police he molested the 30-year-old woman. Skinner said the alleged incident occurred while the woman, an acquaintance, was upset with the defendant.

But defense attorney Thomas Johnson said prosecutors did not play the video during the hearing and argued Pokorny was asked to make the decision based on the testimony of the interpreter, Oscar Marino, and police. Johnson said the defendant also repeatedly denied accusations against him for most of the police interview.

Pokorny scheduled a trial for Aug. 8. The JournalWorld generally does not identify sex crime suspects unless they are convicted.

His friends and family are trying to raise $30,000 for an endowed scholarship that would benefit KU journalism students who exemplify Anderson’s qualities.

Wendee Anderson, Drew’s mother, said that donations to the memorial fund can be sent to Wendee Anderson, 4435 N. 124th St., Kansas City, KS 66109. Donations should be made payable to “Just Drew It!,” which is a nonprofit organization to benefit the scholarship.

COUNTY GOVERNMENT

Low interest rates will save $940K

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

Historically low interest rates have resulted in $940,000 worth of savings for Douglas County.

This week, the Douglas County Commission approved refinancing bonds that are paying off the Douglas County Jail and projects in special assessment districts.

Over the past few years, the county has

kept an eye on dropping interest rates, but refinancing the bonds hadn’t made financial sense until now, according to Sarah Plinsky, assistant county administrator.

And, the county decided the rates were so good that it should refinance now instead of waiting to package the bonds with upcoming projects that would require issuing debt.

“We are really trying

to move fast to take advantage of the savings,” Plinsky said.

The interest rates are on four bonds, one of which won’t be paid off until 2021. In the next nine years, the lower interest rates will save the county more than $940,000. This year alone, the county expects to pay $90,000 less in interest because of the refinancing.

The savings free up

sales tax authority money that could be used for other projects. Right now, the county is faced with having to replace the radio system that is the backbone for 911 calls. Upgrading the system will cost about $7 million. “(The refinancing) makes it easier for us to make it happen,” Plinsky said.

Officials said Friday that 59-year-old Gary Leslie Furthmyer is believed to be in the downtown Kansas City, Mo., area. Furthmyer escaped from his minimum security assignment at a steam plant at the Lansing prison. He was serving a six- to 25-year sentence out of Sedgwick County for indecent liberties with a child and aggravated failure to appear.

About 700 third-graders from the Lawrence area spent a couple of hours Friday working through various stations to promote physical activity and safety awareness.

Two bicyclists will be stopping in Lawrence on Monday during their sevenmonth cross-country tour to raise awareness about suicide prevention.

Thomas Brown, 34, and Zachary Chipps, 31, met each other while working for the Parks and Recreation Department in Scottsdale, Ariz.

It was a chance meeting that happened while they were waiting for a program to begin. During that conversation, they learned they liked the same music, so they exchanged numbers and eventually met for coffee. That’s when they learned they were both reading the same book, “Ishmael,” by Daniel Quinn, and they both had lost an older brother to suicide.

They both were 24 when it happened.

“It lifted a lot of weight off my chest just to know somebody that I could have fellowship with,” Brown said.

Since then, they have formed a unique bond and decided to embark on the bicycling journey to help in their healing process and to reach out to others.

City, public need time to evaluate northwest plans

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Earlier this week, Lawrence city commissioners were presented a set of rezoning requests to allow the development of a boardwalk area behind Johnny’s Tavern along the north side of the Kansas River levee.

Promoters of the project tell of their dream to have shops, restaurants, possibly a movie theater and even a museum along with a heavy emphasis on residential development.

Sounds good, a project that would take advantage of the riverfront to create an attractive development.

As might be expected, however, several downtown merchants almost immediately voiced concerns that such a development might hurt downtown businesses. Commissioners directed city staff members to limit the footprint of retail building to no more than 25,000 square feet.

The same day the JournalWorld published the story about the proposed riverfront development and the concerns of some downtown merchants, there was a story in the paper about a proposed “recreation center” on the northwest edge of Lawrence, which would offer “huge” opportunities.

This center would be located on land just northwest of the intersection of Sixth Street and the South Lawrence Trafficway.

This general area has been in the news for some time as various developers have filed commercial zoning requests. In March, developers asked for 80 acres northwest of the intersection to be zoned for heavy commercial. This got their foot in the door. Now, two months after filing for the 80 acres, heavy commercial zoning is being sought for the entire 146-acre site.

This is where the proposed massive recreation complex

would be located. This might include 300,000 square feet of enclosed space, an outdoor track and stadium, numerous other recreation/athletic facilities and maybe even an ice rink.

COMMENTARY With heavy commercial zoning, this would allow several “big box” stores, like those that raised concerns in the North Lawrence project, along with restaurants, hotels or motels, supermarkets, bars and perhaps a bank and other retail outlets.

This site, along with 50 acres northeast of the intersection, would provide 1.5 million square feet of commercial space, making this area the third largest retail area in Lawrence, behind the area on South Iowa Street and downtown Lawrence.

Talk about the potential to

suck the life out of downtown Lawrence.

The northwest project is moving far faster than any other recent or much smaller proposal. The North Lawrence levee project is a drop in the bucket compared with the rec center complex.

Granted, the project is exciting, and the sports facilities proposed for the development would be a major addition and asset for the city and Kansas University. However, the manner in which this has been finessed and the speed with which it has been presented and placed before the city offers a fairly good example of how so many projects suddenly have evolved from an initial proposal into something else requiring many city-approved variances.

There are too many cases of individuals or companies asking for forgiveness rather than permission!

Developers have invested

millions of dollars and want to spend even more to provide additional living and hotel facilities in the downtown area, which would benefit retail merchants, but they are stalled time and time again because a building might block some sunlight or require removal of a trash Dumpster.

Developers have tried to work with city officials and neighbors about the height of a building and have redesigned their plans to try to please all parties.

In other cases elsewhere, buildings have been built and landscaped in a manner different from what was shown in the originally approved plans and the city has granted retroactive variances.

Consider the fight that lasted for years about the so-called “cornfield mall” development south of Lawrence. Downtown merchants fought this project, as Please see COLUMN, page 4A

Q:

Why has the Lawrence school district policy been changed so that school buses cannot exceed 58 mph on any road or highway?

. LAWRENCE ON THE RECORD

LJWORLD.COM/BLOTTER

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT • Officers on the Douglas County Fake ID 101 task force cited 27 people, mostly for underage drinking violations, Thursday night and Friday morning as part of a special patrol on the event of Kansas University’s Stop Day, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman.

Kansas Alcoholic Beverage Control officers also issued administrative citations to seven bars or establishments alleging they allowed minors to possess alcohol, McKinley said. Officers also issued an administrative citation to New School Catering of Lawrence alleging the caterer failed to notify the city and state it was catering an event at Delta Tau Delta, 1111 W. 11th St. The 12 officers from the ABC, KU police, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and Lawrence police checked 15 licensed establishments and the one catered event, McKinley said. The patrol is funded using grant money from the Kansas Department of Transportation. They also briefly had a plainclothes officer at a counter in a liquor store but didn’t find any violations, he said.

Of the 27 people ticketed, 24 received charges of possession of alcohol by a minor, and 19 were charged for possession or use of a fake ID. One person was arrested for interference with duties of an officer. And one person was cited for littering. Some people were cited for more than one charge.

The ABC administrative citations for allowing minors to possess alcohol were issued at Bullwinkle’s Bar, 1344 Tenn., five counts; The Hawk, 1340 Ohio, three counts; Tonic, 728 Mass., two counts; The Phoggy Dog, 2228 Iowa, two counts; R Bar and Patio, 610 Fla., one count; The Wheel, 507 W. 14th St., one count.

Holiday Inn Lawrence, 200 McDonald Drive, was cited on seven counts alleging the staff allowed minors to possess alcohol and one

well as compromise plans to shift the development to the downtown area.

Now, a huge commercial development is sought on the northwest edge of Lawrence, and city officials and developers are rushing to get everything greased for quick approval.

The athletic part of the proposed project is great.

KU basketball coach Bill Self and his foundation have been generous in many ways, offering to provide substantial fiscal support for the project.

Likewise, KU officials, although they have not made their plans public, apparently want to remove the track from Memorial Stadium and place it and other athletic venues at the site.

The project, however, will turn out to be far different if the KU sports facilities and a large city rec

• Two suspects Friday morning burglarized the AT&T store, 4821 W. Sixth St., and stole several items inside the business, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman.

Police responded to an alarm at 6:40 a.m. at the store near Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive, and officers determined by video inside the store that two men entered the back of the business and took merchandise and a small amount of cash during a short period of time.

Investigators believed the suspects knew there was video surveillance inside because they had completely covered their bodies. McKinley said it did not appear they had to force the doors open, but once inside they did force open locked containers to get to merchandise. Police asked anyone with information in the case to call Douglas County Crime Stoppers at 785-843TIPS (8477).

• A 22-year-old Topeka woman staying at Jayhawk Motel, 1004 N. Third St., reported a stranger knocked on her door, burst into her room when she opened the door and grabbed her. Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman, said officers were called at 1:43 a.m.

The intruder released the woman after she screamed, and he walked away.

McKinley described the suspect as an unshaven white man in his early 20s, 5-foot-7, about 225 pounds. McKinley said the woman was not injured. Police were still looking for the suspect.

• A 30-year-old Carbondale woman was arrested Friday morning on charges of shoplifting $1,149 worth of items from Walmart, 550 Congressional Drive, in September. Nina Louise Stilington was arrested on a warrant served to her from within the Topeka Correctional Facility. She is being held in the Douglas County Jail on $1,500 bond.

center are being used as a means to slip in zoning that would allow a massive retail development.

This possibility deserves far more attention and study than it is receiving.

When the location of a city Dumpster can stall the development of a hotel, residential and retail building in the city’s downtown area and a riverfront development can be stalled or possibly rejected unless a 25,000-square-foot limit is placed on retail businesses, and yet, a fasttrack effort can place a 1.5 million-square-foot project that could have a huge impact on a highly prized and protected downtown business district, something is out of balance or something is wrong.

Again the athletic component of the northwest project is great. It would be tremendous for Lawrence and KU. But the OK for heavy commercial zoning for this 1.5 millionsquare-foot area deserves far more serious study.

SUICIDE PREVENTION

Join the journey

working and what’s not working,” Brown said.

“We also want to bring the message that the creative power that’s inside each and every person is kind of like a catalyst for change and growth and transcendence.”

Their journey, called Revolution Inspired by Self Evolution, or RISE, began March 1 by riding across the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge, a site of frequent suicides.

Brown said a man rode with them across the bridge; he had lost his brother to suicide there.

“That was pretty emotional,” he said.

Since then, they’ve pedaled their way through California, New Mexico, Colorado and Nebraska. At first, they didn’t have a support vehicle, but now they do.

They take turns driving and bicycling and they receive support from friends, family, churches and networks such as CouchSurfing and Warmshowers. They’ve also partnered with a nonprofit suicide prevention center in Tempe, Ariz.

“It has been the biggest challenge and the most rewarding thing I have ever done,” Chipps said. “It has been amazing.”

Chipps grew up in Hastings, Neb. He was close to his brother, Sean, who was nine years older.

“We were best friends, and I looked up to him. I got his hand-me-downs when we were growing up, and I wanted to be just like him,” he said.

“That was a real scary

Special to the Journal-World

ZACHARY CHIPPS, LEFT, AND THOMAS BROWN, BOTH OF SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ., are bicycling across the country to raise awareness about suicide prevention.

They both lost an older brother to suicide. Their journey began March 1 at the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge and will end Sept. 30 in Wappengers Falls, N.Y. They are pictured during a stop in Colorado. Chipps and Brown will be in Lawrence Monday through Wednesday. thing that I had to deal with when he died. I was a lot like him and I realized his choices and the path he had chosen and ended it in, and I was like, ‘Wow. I’m going to have to make some changes here.’”

Brown said he and his brother, Marc, also were close. They played basketball and both cheered for the Jayhawks because their parents were originally from Kansas.

“I went from being the baby in the family to the only child,” Brown said.

“One of the hardest things for me is knowing one of these days that I will have to bury my parents and I am not going to have my brother there with me.”

Brown said they have learned that they are far from alone. They have met many survivors of suicide and have learned that everyone heals differently.

“We can’t control what comes at us, but we can control how we deal with

it,” he said. “We don’t all heal in the same way and that’s OK. We shouldn’t compare ourselves to other individuals and how they are healing. It’s also OK to have a bad day and it’s OK to say, ‘I need a helping hand right now.’”

David Moore, of rural Lawrence, praised the two men for helping to raise suicide awareness.

One year ago, he lost his son Cassidy Moore, Cassidy to a Baldwin High suicide at age 23.

School gradu“If you ate, died April w o u l d 23, 2011, by h a v e suicide at age looked at 23. him and k n o w n him, you would have thought he had the world by the tail,” Moore said.

“If it happened to him, it could happen to anyone.”

Thomas Brown and Zachary Chipps, both of Scottsdale, Ariz., are on a seven-month cross-country bicycle tour to raise awareness about suicide.

They are going through 21 states and stopping in 110 cities.

They will be in Lawrence Monday through Wednesday. Headquarters Counseling Center, a suicide prevention center in Lawrence, has been coordinating efforts to welcome them to town.

Headquarters invites the public to join the cause by:

Participating in the ride. A group of cyclists will leave the Lawrence Visitors Center, 402 N. Second St., at 11 a.m. They will ride out about 25 miles to greet them and escort them to town. The route will be along Highway 24 and then Highway 59, going north toward Oskaloosa.

Brown and Chipps will be Moore is calling on fellow cyclists to help escort Brown and Chipps into town. He will be departing from the Lawrence Visitors Center, 402 N. Second St., at 11 a.m. Monday and riding about 25 miles out to meet them, and then they will escort them into town for a brief gathering at 3:30 p.m. at the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St. “Let’s roll out the red carpet for these guys,” he said. “I am sure they are dragging about now and can use the support.”

For Brown, it will be sort of a second homecoming. He will be visiting with relatives here

departing from Effingham at 11 a.m.

Attending a meetand-greet. There will be a social gathering about 3:30 p.m. Monday at the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St., where the riders will stop in town. The gathering will migrate to Johnny’s Tavern in North Lawrence until early evening.

Joining a potluck and meeting. The event will be from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday at Trinity Lutheran Church, 1245 N.H. There will be a brief program where the bicyclists will talk about their journey.

The city of Lawrence has proclaimed the week of May 6-12 as Rise Phoenix Week in honor of the cyclists and their mission.

For more information, call Headquarters Counseling Center at 8412345 or visit its Facebook page. and in Wichita. He has been scattering his brother’s ashes along the journey and plans to leave some around Allen Fieldhouse. He also has his brother’s KU cap and plans to find a place to retire it.

Before leaving Omaha, Neb., on Thursday, Brown described the journey as magnificent.

“How long do you have?” he said, when asked to share special moments. “The scenery.

The people. It has all just been amazing.”

Marcia Epstein, director of Headquarters Counseling Center in Lawrence, says you can make a difference when someone shows signs of feeling suicidal.

Here’s how:

Listen and show you care.

Ask the question, “Are you thinking about suicide?”

For teens, find a trusted adult to help you both.

For adults, find someone to be with the person and someone trained in suicide prevention to help.

Eliminate access to firearms, medications and other dangers.

Never keep a secret about suicide.

Know that suicide is never someone else’s fault.

Tonight up in the sky, it’s not a bird or a plane — it’s supermoon!

NEW YORK (AP) — The biggest and brightest full moon of the year arrives tonight as our celestial neighbor passes closer to Earth than usual.

But don’t expect any “must-have-been-a-fullmoon” spike in crime or crazy behavior. That’s just folklore.

Today’s event is a “supermoon,” the closest and therefore the biggest

and brightest full moon of the year. At 11:34 p.m., the moon will be about 221,802 miles from Earth.

That’s about 15,300 miles closer than average.

That proximity will make the moon appear about 14 percent bigger than it would if the moon were at its farthest distance, said Geoff Chester of the U.S. Naval Observatory. The difference in

appearance is so small that “you’d be very hardpressed to detect that with the unaided eye,” he said.

The moon’s distance from Earth varies because it follows an elliptical orbit rather than a circular one.

Like any full moon, the supermoon will look bigger when it’s on or near the horizon rather than higher in the sky, thanks to

an optical illusion, Chester noted. The full moon appears on the horizon at sunset. The supermoon will bring unusually high tides because of its closeness and its alignment with the sun and Earth, but the effect will be modest, Chester said.

The last supermoon, on March 19, 2011, was about 240 miles closer than this year’s will be. Next year’s

deal with this and establish a long-term policy,” he said.

Johnson’s amendment failed, 44-62.

After the vote, the KU Medical Center said: “KU will continue to work with policymakers to ensure the goals are clear: Maintaining a strong and accredited medical residency program for our state. We applaud those who have worked with us to craft language which will protect our accreditation and today were supportive of efforts to make that language a permanent provision and not have it expire.”

Later, House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-

Lawrence, who supports abortion rights, said Kinzer “displayed some candor on what his intenDavis tions are.”

D a v i s added, “He made it very clear that there is a viewpoint in the House that is not concerned with the accreditation issue and they would like to go on a collision course,” with the Medical Center.

A final vote on the entire bill is expected Monday.

The overall legislation

would declare abortions illegal if they are performed only because a woman doesn’t like the gender of the fetus. The bill also requires physicians to inform women seeking an abortion about the risk of breast cancer. A large body of research says there is no link between abortion and breast cancer. The bill also would have the effect of creating new taxes on expenses related to abortion services or insurance coverage for abortion, and imposes state sales taxes on drugs and medications used in an abortion.

said the coalition withdrew its bid because of several new contract requirements from SRS. One would require a victim undergo a psychological evaluation, she said. Grover said the coalition was willing to agree to make referrals for those who would benefit by an evaluation, but making the evaluation mandatory in all cases was unnecessary and could be harmful in some instances.

“The basic assumption that comes out of that requirement is that there is something wrong with the survivor,” Grover said.

She also said the evaluations could be used unfairly against victims in divorce or child custody proceedings.

Another requirement said that 90 percent of those served had to be employed within 18 months, Grover said. She said this ignored the myriad of problems that many survivors faced and hurdles to employment.

In addition, there is a requirement that would force advocates to report typically confidential information, Grover said, and establish a “corrective action plan.” That insinuates survivors need to be “corrected,” or “fixed,” Grover said.

Sen. Laura Kelly, DTopeka, said the SRS action was troubling. “I have serious concerns about dismantling a system for service providers for victims of domestic violence that has been in place for years and has proven to be effective.”

Statewide, the coalition and its subcontractors serve about 1,000 people each year.

Joan Schultz, who is the executive director of The Willow Domestic Violence Center in Lawrence, said the organization would have to assess whether it would contract directly with SRS for the program, which is called OARS and stands for orientation, assessment, referral and safety.

“It is an important program to ensure survivors are able to look at all their options,” Schultz said. In Lawrence, OARS provides $85,000 and pays for 2.5 positions that help abuse victims.

The Willow Center has a shelter that can serve 29 people. It served 137 women and 114 children last year.

Schultz said she would be happy to discuss with SRS officials “about how to move the OARS program forward and to keep

these services in the city of Lawrence.”

She added, “I will have to take a look at any contract offer, and the board of directors and I will decide if this contract is mission driven for The Willow. I believe SRS has the best interests of survivors in mind, and we will work with them to the best of our ability.” Schultz also added she believed the Kansas Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence withdrew from the program “in good conscience.”

Schultz said the SRS evaluation requirement of victims was “very problematic.” She added: “Any time you have a state requiring services from a professional, like a mental health professional, then you are going down a slippery slope.”

Sarah Jane Russell, who is executive director of GaDuGi SafeCenter in Lawrence, deferred questions about the effect of the funding issue to The Willow. But she added, “There is an urgency for all people to sit at the table and talk truthfully about where we are going with victims services in this state.”

But Kinzer said that the bypass and one-year period was part of an accommodation to KU and that the school was trying to go back on the agreement and using a freshman legislator to do that.

the contract with SRS since the program’s inception in 1999 and has provided assistance to about 17,500 victims.

The coalition withdrew its bid for the next fiscal year, which starts July 1.

SRS Secretary Phyllis Gilmore said she was “not surprised KCSDV is backing away from providing services” under the program.

“KCSDV had been struggling to meet our new accountability standards for several months,” Gilmore said.

“We tried to work with them, but in the end the bid that KCSDV submitted did not meet even the minimum performance standards set in the request for bid, and they were the only bidder. As a result of their withdrawal, we have decided to take the program in-house, manage it ourselves and provide direct funding to the community programs,” she said.

The amount of grant funds is $2 million, according to SRS, and is provided by the federal government.

Grover disagreed with Gilmore’s assessment and

Job growth slowed again in April

By Christopher S. Rugaber and Paul Wiseman Associated Press

WASHINGTON — One month of slower job growth might have been a blip. Two suggest a worrisome trend: The economy may be faltering again.

The United States generated just 115,000 jobs last month, well below expectations and the fewest since October. The unemployment rate fell to 8.1 percent, but for the wrong reason — workers abandoned the labor force.

From December through February, employers added 252,000 jobs a month on average.

But the figure dipped in March and dropped further in April, raising doubts about an economic recovery that can’t seem to reach escape velocity.

The report Friday by the Labor Department indicated “an economy that is losing momentum — especially on the jobs front,” said Tom Porcelli, chief U.S. economist at RBC

Capital Markets.

It also dealt a blow to President Barack Obama’s re-election prospects. His presumed Republican opponent, Mitt Romney, called the report “very disappointing.”

Romney said the country should be adding 500,000 jobs a month and said any unemployment rate above 4 percent is “not cause for celebration.” The rate has not been that low seen since the last days of the Clinton administration.

“We seem to be slowing down, not speeding up,” Romney said on Fox News Channel. “This is not progress.”

Obama, at a Virginia high school to promote a freeze on interest rates for student loans, focused on the six-month total of more than 1 million jobs created. But he said: “We’ve got to do more.”

The 8.1 percent unemployment rate is the lowest since January 2009, the month Obama was sworn in.

Still, the weak job growth caused stocks to fall sharply on Wall Street.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index lost 1.6 percent and closed its worst week of the year. The price of oil fell more than 4 percent because of fears of a slowing economy, which should mean lower gasoline prices soon.

Some of the slower job growth may be because an unusually warm winter allowed construction firms and other companies to add workers ahead of schedule in January and February, effectively stealing jobs from the spring.

The weaker job growth in March and April “looks like some weather payback,” said Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics.

The balmy weather probably exaggerated job growth in the winter and makes it look small now, Ashworth said. He expects job creation to settle into a lackluster range between 175,000 and 200,000.

Koch gives Smithsonian $35M for new dinosaur hall

By Brett Zongker Associated Press

WASHINGTON — An energy businessman is donating a record $35 million to the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History to build a new dinosaur hall on the National Mall, the museum complex announced Thursday.

The donation by David H. Koch, the executive vice president of Koch Industries Inc. of Wichita, Kan., is the single largest gift in the museum’s 102-year history.

The Smithsonian Board of Regents voted Monday to name the new dinosaur hall in Koch’s honor.

Koch, an engineer trained at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is a billionaire who lives in New York City. He was the Libertarian Party’s vice presidential candidate in 1980 and has been a major donor to conservative political causes targeting President Barack Obama’s policies, as

well as to educational, medical and cultural groups.

S i n c e the age of 14, though, when his David Koch f a t h e r took Koch and his brother Charles to New York’s American Museum of Natural History, he fell in love with dinosaurs and has visited museums around the world, he told The Associated Press. It’s become a hobby, he said, taking him to visit fields in central Africa where paleontologists were unearthing fossils.

“I just was dazzled by the dinosaurs,” he said. After serving on the Smithsonian’s Natural History Museum board for five years, “it was just obvious to me that the dinosaur halls were incredibly obsolete, and at least one of the exhibits is over 100 years old.”

In 2009, Koch gave the

Smithsonian $15 million to build a new exhibit hall exploring human evolution over 6 million years. The museum’s Hall of Human Origins also was named in his honor, tying in with another area that interests Koch.

In 2006, he gave $20 million to the American Museum of Natural History in New York City to create the David H. Koch Dinosaur Wing. And in 2008, he gave a record $100 million to New York’s Lincoln Center to renovate the former New York State Theater.

The Smithsonian’s dinosaur hall has remained unchanged for more than 30 years and has grown outdated with advances in paleontology. The current exhibit gallery began as the “Hall of Extinct Monsters” when the museum opened in 1910. Still, the museum has amassed one of the most comprehensive collections of fossils and a well-regarded staff of paleobiologists conducting research.

Hawker Beechcraft files for bankruptcy WICHITA — Economic turbulence has shrunk the market for business jets, and it’s causing an especially bumpy ride for Hawker Beechcraft.

The Wichita, Kan.-based aircraft maker filed for bankruptcy protection this week, seeking approval for a plan that would write an estimated $2.5 billion in debt off its books and eliminate almost $125 million in annual cash interest expenses.

Hawker Beechcraft Corp., which is owned by Onex Partners and GS Capital Partners, a Goldman Sachs private equity fund, has struggled with the sluggish business jet market more than other plane makers because it was purchased in a highly leveraged deal at the peak of the general aviation market, just before the market tanked.

DILBERT

“It is one badly damaged firm, in a badly damaged market segment — just a unique set of circumstances,” said Richard Aboulafia, an aviation analyst with Teal Group, a Fairfax, Va.-based aerospace and defense analysis company.

The economic downturn that began in late 2008 hit business jet makers especially hard, as corporate customers that were lining up for their own planes earlier in the decade began looking for ways to trim fat. The public outrage that Detroit auto executives took private jets to Washington seeking bailout money that November reinforced the planes’ image as a symbol of corporate excess.

Two months later, the White House pressured Citigroup to cancel the planned delivery of a jet.

Obama promoting divisive agenda “The pundits like to slice and dice our country into red states and blue states ... “ — Barack Obama, rising star, Democratic convention, 2004 WASHINGTON — Poor Solicitor General Donald Verrilli.

Once again he’s been pilloried for fumbling a historic Supreme Court case. First shredded for his “train wreck” defense of Obamacare’s individual mandate, he is now blamed for the defenestration in oral argument of Obama’s challenge to the Arizona immigration law.

The law allows police to check the immigration status of someone stopped for other reasons. Verrilli claimed that constitutes an intrusion on the federal monopoly on immigration enforcement. He was pummeled. Why shouldn’t a state help the federal government enforce the law? “You can see it’s not selling very well,” said Justice Sonia Sotomayor.

But Verrilli never had a chance.

This was never a serious legal challenge in the first place. It was confected (and timed) purely for political effect, to highlight immigration as a campaign issue with which to portray Republicans as anti-Hispanic.

Hispanics are just the beginning, however. The entire Obama campaign is a slice and dice operation, pandering to one group after another, particularly those that elected Obama in 2008 — blacks, Hispanics,

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

It makes a mockery of Obama’s pose as the great transcender, uniter, healer of divisions.” women, young people — and for whom the thrill is now gone.

What to do? Try fear. Create division, stir resentment, by whatever means necessary — bogus court challenges, dead-end Senate bills and a forest of straw men.

Why else would the Justice Department challenge the photo ID law in Texas? To charge Republicans with seeking to disenfranchise Hispanics and blacks, of course. But in 2008 the Supreme Court upheld a similar law from Indiana. And it wasn’t close: 6-3, the majority including that venerated liberal, John Paul Stevens. Moreover, photo IDs were recommended by the 2005 Commission on Federal Election Reform, co-chaired by Jimmy Carter. And you surely can’t get into the attorney general’s building without one. Are

Stevens, Carter and Eric Holder anti-Hispanic and anti-black?

The ethnic bases covered, we proceed to the “war on women.”

It sprang to public notice when a 30-year-old student at an elite law school (starting private-sector salary upon graduation: $160,000) was denied the inalienable right to have the rest of the citizenry (as co-insured and/or taxpayers — median household income: $52,000) pay for her contraception.

Despite a temporary setback — Hilary Rosen’s hastily surrendered war on moms — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will resume the battle with a Paycheck Fairness Act that practically encourages frivolous lawsuits and has zero chance of passage.

No matter. Its sole purpose is to keep the war-on-women theme going, while the equally just-for-show Buffett Rule, nicely pitting the 99 percent versus the 1 percent, is a clever bit of class warfare designed to let Democrats play tribune of the middle class.

Ethnicity, race, gender, class.

One more box to check: the young. Just four years ago, they swooned in the aisles for Obama.

No longer. Not when 54 percent of college graduates under 25 are unemployed or underemployed.

How to shake them from their lethargy? Fear again. Tell them, as Obama repeatedly does, that Paul Ryan’s budget would cut Pell Grants by $1,000 each, if his domestic cuts were evenly distributed.

(They are not evenly distributed,

It was such a IN 1912 great success that already there is a widespread demand to make it an annual event... The children were in line and they were in the greatest kind of glee over the success of their efforts.... The procession was formed in front of the Methodist church and it was led by the hand. The banners were flying and the children were having the time of their lives.

The Methodists had the most in numbers, the Baptists had the most banners and the Friends had the largest per cent of their membership in the parade. The other schools all made fine showings and everybody was well pleased. The parade marched down the street to the opera house and here the Sunday Schools from North Lawrence were waiting.”

making the charge a fabrication.

But a great applause line.)

Then warn that Republicans would double the interest rate on student loans. Well, first, Mitt Romney has said he would keep them right where they are. Second, as The Washington Post points out, this is nothing but a recycled campaign gimmick from 2006 when Democrats advocated (and later passed) a 50 percent rate cut that gratuitously squanders student aid by subsidizing the wealthy as well as the needy.

For Obama, what’s not to like?

More beneficiaries, more votes.

What else to run on with 1.7 percent GDP growth (2011), record long-term joblessness and record 8 percent-plus unemployment (38 consecutive months, as of this writing). Slice and dice, group against group.

There is a problem, however. It makes a mockery of Obama’s pose as the great transcender, uniter, healer of divisions. This is the man who sprang from nowhere with that thrilling 2004 convention speech declaring that there is “not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there’s the United States of America.”

That was then. Today, we are just sects with quarrels — to be exploited for political advantage. And Obama is just the man to fulfill Al Gore’s famous mistranslation of our national motto: Out of one, many.

Fowl law To the editor: We have been raising chickens on our farm since 1973. When cared for properly, chickens mesh very well with humans and have done so for thousands of years.

We feed and protect them, and they provide us with eggs, entertainment, lessons in life’s secrets, sustainable garbage disposal and, sometimes, meat. We celebrated the passage of the ordinance that allows folks in town to keep a small flock.

The part of the ordinance that precipitated the banning of the sale of baby chicks and ducklings by Orscheln’s demonstrates a gross misunderstanding of the needs of chickens. Adult chickens do benefit greatly from having access to adequate space, fresh air, green grass, bugs and worms. But the needs of baby chicks are somewhat different. They need to have close contact with other chicks for warmth, security, and, perhaps,

We hope the ordinance will be modified to reflect the real needs of chickens.

Health at stake To the editor, H Sub SB 62, known as the Birth Control Refusal and Referral Denial bill, was passed Wednesday and is on its way to Gov. Brownback’s desk to become law. This bill was NEVER introduced, given a hearing or debated in the Senate. It was queued up into a “gut and go” bill by anti-choice leaders in the Legislature to bypass the standard democratic process as they ran out of time.

If this bill becomes law, it would mean: O A hospital treating a woman who has survived sexual assault could refuse to give that woman emergency contraception or

even tell her about it.

O A pharmacist could refuse to dispense birth control pills based on his or her personal belief.

O A woman with a condition that significantly increases her health risks during pregnancy — such as cancer, phlebitis, sickle cell anemia or heart disease — could be denied treatment for her condition and/or an abortion to preserve her health. The doctor or pharmacist could also refuse to refer the woman to a clinician who could provide her medically necessary treatment.

This bill and its path to a vote in the Senate was so outrageous that anti-choice Sen. Tim Owens, R-Overland Park, voted against it, saying, “This bill carries with it opportunities for unintended consequences where a person with medical skills and training could be in a situation to deny help resulting in the death of a mother. I do not accept that as a pro-life choice.”

Clearly this is a form of war designed to harm women and families all across our state with

Democratic nuns?

To the editor: As a Catholic who sometimes feels guilty about being a Democrat, my ears perked up when I heard Chris Mathews (MSNBC) ask the nun who was his guest, “Why are Catholic bishops usually Republicans, but nuns are often Democrats?” Her answer was that it probably was because nuns are often working with the poor on a daily basis and seeing their situation, lack of health care, etc. That was the same day that the Georgetown University faculty objected to Paul Ryan’s budget. I felt better that day.

Of course, I can always call my 82-year-old brother who is a Holy Cross priest still working in South America. He’ll always prop me up.

”THE SEARCH FOR KENNYBOY,” A FEATURE-LENGTH FILM written and directed by former Lawrence resident Justin Wood, premiered at the Buffalo Niagara Film Festival in Buffalo, N.Y., on April 15. Wood is a 1997 graduate of Lawrence High School and the son of Keith and Barbara Wood, of Lawrence. Wood filmed “The Search for Kennyboy” in Seattle, where he now lives. The film follows the efforts of two bounty hunters to track down Kenneth Lay, the deceased Enron CEO. Their attempt to unravel the truth about Lay’s death leads them into space as they expose a conspiracy involving mysterious government agents, tobacco executives, the military and possibly even foreign powers. The film was also accepted for the Seattle True Independent Film Festival this month. Keith Wood submitted the photo.

KANSAS FOOTBALL Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Derby experts weigh in on field After talking this week with Secretariat biographer William Nack and Stonecrest Farm owner Dr. William Reed, a Kansas City heart surgeon, I consider myself a full-blown expert on horse racing. Before giving you the winner of today’s Kentucky Derby, a word from Nack on why Secretariat deserved to be called an athlete.

“He was trained like an athlete,” Nack said. “He was fit. He was on a very strict regimen. He was like an Olympic athlete who was sheltered all his life to perform at his optimum for our entertainment — which is what it was for — and for money.”

Nack, who grew very close to Secretariat, doesn’t see another horse like him in this year’s deep Derby field, but he does have a pick for the winner’s circle: Union Rags.

Like Nack, Reed has a great deal of affection for horses. It’s been a tough week for the surgeon. Dynaformer, the sire of his best horse, Perfect Drift, suffered a heart attack April 17 while covering a mare and died April 29.

The date of the death chilled Reed because it also happened to be the birthday of Perfect Drift and Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro, also by Dynaformer.

“You get attached to horses, and you should never be in the business unless you really love horses,” Reed said, adding that his son sent a note to the farm where Dynaformer died. It read: “Rest peacefully, big horse. You gave us a gift that was immeasurable in Perfect Drift. As long as we run horses, we’ll be thinking about you.”

Perfect Drift ran third in the 2002 Kentucky Derby and the gelding apparently is quite the lady’s horse.

“Perfect Drift has always loved women, children and the disabled,” Reed said. “He will physically move you out of his stall to let a woman come in and pet him. There was one time when the groom couldn’t get him to let a male veterinarian in to give him his medication. A trainer had a girlfriend who was a vet. She came in and said, ‘Get over there, Drift.’

She gave him the medication and said, ‘What’s the problem?’”

The big bay is fine with everyone outside the stall, Reed said, but inside it he wants nothing to do with men.

Catching on Tight end Biere ready to begin NFL career

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kevin Anderson/Journal-World File Photo

FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY TIGHT END TIM BIERE CATCHES a pass during football practice in this photo from April 25, 2011. Biere recently signed a free-agent deal with the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs.

Former Kansas University tight end Tim Biere is a realist, and that characteristic served him well last weekend as he watched the 2012 NFL Draft without worrying too much about it.

“From everyone I talked to, they pretty much said I’d be a priority free agent,” said Biere, who signed a freeagent contract with the Kansas City Chiefs last Saturday.

“Going through the draft, you’re kind of like, ‘What if it happens?’ but I kind of knew it wasn’t gonna happen.”

Although Biere came to expect that his name would not be called during the seven rounds of the draft, he believed he would get a shot somewhere. Prior to the draft, officials from several teams, including Kansas City, reached out to the 6-foot-4, 260-pound tight end and told him they would be interested in signing him when the draft ended. Biere liked what he heard from each and appreciated that he Please see BIERE, page 3B

Anxiety abounds at Sunflower League prelims

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

The Sunflower League girls swimming championships don’t start until this afternoon at Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center.

That didn’t make Friday night’s prelims any less stressful for some swimmers from Lawrence and Free State high schools.

Only the top six times in each prelim qualified for the championships. Seventh through 12th meant a spot in the consolation finals. Anything less, and a swimmer was done.

Firebirds freshman Eliza Anderson said the prelims had a way of making swimmers more nervous than they would be at a regularseason meet.

“I think there’s more anxiety,” Anderson said, “just to make finals, so you can score in the finals.”

Her fifth-place finish in the 200 free got her one of those coveted championship spots.

Lions sophomore Annie Odrowski experienced both sides of the championship cut.

She took sixth in the 200 IM and seventh in the 500 free.

“You want to get top six, and it’s so hard,” Odrowski said.

In the longest race of the evening, Odrowski’s 500 time (5:31.61) was just four hundredths of a second behind the sixth-place time of Olathe East’s Samantha Laflin.

“It’s really frustrating,” Odrowski said, “but you can’t let those derail you from what’s really important.”

2012

Lawrence junior Miranda Rohn left the prelims embittered after missing out on the championships in her individual races. The 100 free finish really irked Rohn, who took seventh and was eight hundredths of a second behind the sixth-place time (56.6) of Lanie Leek, Shawnee Mission East.

“Everyone’s going so much faster,” she said of league competitors, compared to a regular-season meet.

For Rohn, the weight of prelims stress increased with the timing of the meet, which was just days before some of the biggest tests of the year in her LHS course load. She had a strategy for clearing her mind before she dove into the water, though.

“I try not to pay attention to the results as they happen,” Rohn said, “because I psych myself out a little bit before my race.”

City swimmers finished first in six of the 11 Friday prelims.

Celtics up 2-1 after OT victory Celtics 90, Hawks 84, OT BOSTON — Rajon Rondo had a triple-double with 17 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists to lead the Celtics to an overtime victory over Atlanta on Friday night and give Boston a 2-1 lead in the first-round playoff series.

It was the seventh career playoff triple-double for Rondo, who missed Game 2 because he was suspended for bumping a referee in the closing minutes of the series opener.

Game 4 is Sunday night.

Ray Allen returned for Boston after missing almost a month and scored 13 points in 38 minutes. Kevin Garnett had 20 points and 13 rebounds, and Paul Pierce had 21 points one game after having 36 points and 14 rebounds to help the Celtics swipe home-court advantage with a Game 2 victory in Atlanta.

Joe Johnson scored 29 points and Jeff Teague had 23 for the Hawks. Tracy McGrady had 12 points — his highest total since he had 40 for Houston in 2008 — but 10 were in the first half, before he landed awkwardly on his right ankle and went to the locker room. He did not have a field goal in the second half.

Rondo scored Boston’s first two baskets of the overtime — the second by posting up Teague and knocking down a baby hook over him. Boston never trailed from there.

The Celtics went on an 11-1 run to open a double-digit lead with 7 minutes to play in regulation, but Atlanta rallied and tied it 80-80 on Johnson’s threepointer with 1:23 left. Both teams failed to score on its next two possessions, leaving the Celtics with the ball out of bounds with 3.9 seconds left.

The Celtics got Rondo back from his one-game suspension and Allen back on the court for the first time since April 10. He played just five games over the final month of the regular season because of bone spurs in his right ankle and missed the first two games of the playoffs as well.

How former Jayhawks fared

NFL union files grievance to challenge bounty suspensions NEW YORK — The NFL players union has challenged Commissioner Roger Goodell’s authority to suspend players who participated in the New Orleans Saints’ pay-forpain scandal and wants him removed from hearing appeals.

The union filed a grievance after Goodell suspended four players who participated in bounties from 2009-11. The complaint says Goodell is prohibited from punishing players for any aspect of the case occurring before the new collective bargaining agreement was signed last August. It argues that a CBA system arbitrator, and not Goodell, has the right to decide player punishment under such circumstances, as well as rule on any appeals.

In a document obtained by The Associated Press, the union told the league Goodell “released all players from conduct engaged in prior to execution of the CBA.� “Thus, even assuming for the sake of argument that the commissioner had the authority to punish players for conduct detrimental under the alleged facts and circumstances of this particular situation — he does not — he nevertheless would be prohibited from punishing NFL players for any aspect of the alleged ‘pay-for-performance/bounty’ conduct occurring before Aug. 4, 2011,� the union said.

Last August, the league agreed not to file lawsuits against players regarding detrimental conduct that occurred prior to signing the new CBA. But the clause the union cites doesn’t deal with conduct detrimental to the league that endangered player safety over three seasons.

Earlier this week, Goodell suspended linebacker Jonathan Vilma for the 2012

Kansas softball shut out in pitchers’ duel J-W Staff Reports

had options. He chose the Chiefs because of his familiarity with the team and the area.

“Kansas City just happens to be a really good fit,” he said. “It’s close to where I played college ball, it’s still close to my hometown and it’s a good opportunity.”

Growing up in Omaha, Neb., where the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Cornhuskers are considered the state’s professional football team, Biere found himself paying extra attention to the Chiefs because they were the closest NFL franchise.

“I wouldn’t say that I was a fan of one certain team growing up,” he said.

“But I definitely watched them more than other teams just because they were on (TV) all the time.”

Biere’s ability to be on his game is what caught the eyes of the Chiefs’ scouts, who told him that they liked his all-around skill set.

on Friday night at the Aggie Softball Complex.

Pille carried a no-hitter into the bottom of the fifth inning, but she walked seven batters and allowed all three A&M runs in the loss.

Aggie ace Mel Dumezich one-upped her Jayhawk counterpart as she threw seven shutout innings with nine strikeouts, zero walks

and just three hits.

Dumezich also contributed on offense, launching her 13th homer of the year in the sixth inning. Cassie Tysarczyk hit A&M’s other home run one frame earlier, scoring walked batter Megan May on the Aggies’ first hit of the night.

Kansas started the game with two singles, but Du-

“The Kansas City guy just said that he thinks I’m a tough football player and he thought I could stick around there for a while,” Biere said. “He said he liked how I gave a lot of effort and just did a lot of things well.”

Asked what area of his game he thought gave him the best shot to make the team, Biere pointed to his experience in two different programs under former KU coaches Mark Mangino and Turner Gill.

“Just the versatility,” he said. “I’ve been in a program where I’ve been asked to run a lot of routes and catch a lot of passes, but I’ve also been asked to play fullback and do stuff like that, run block and pass block. I’ve had a lot of experience doing all the things they want tight ends to be able to do so it’s good to have that background.”

Biere, who still lives in Lawrence, has talked to several former teammates about what to expect from his first NFL training camp experience. Guys like Jake Laptad, Brad Thorson and

Mike Rivera all gave the same answer.

“Everybody just says, ‘Do whatever it takes, do whatever they want you to do,’” Biere said. “It’s good to know that they’re gonna give you a good look. It’s on you now. The way you perform decides it.”

As for his thoughts on the direction of his former team under new coach Charlie Weis, Biere, who has continued to workout and lift weights at KU’s facilities, likes what he sees.

“I think they’re going in the right direction,” he said. “Obviously, coach Weis knows what he’s doing and the guys are buying into it, and they can really sense that something special’s gonna happen here. I think they’re gonna win a lot of ballgames, and I think they’re gonna win soon. I think that there’s a lot of talent on the team.

I’m the only one in the class I came in with that’s done already, so it’s kind of tough to see all those guys still playing for KU. But, at the same time, I know I’ve got a great opportunity ahead of me.”

Surprise! Bodemeister isn’t his original name The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, KY. — Kentucky Derby favorite Bodemeister is working on his third name.

The colt got tagged Bradelberry after being purchased for $260,000 by Ahmed Zayat at the 2010 Keeneland September yearling sale. Zayat said the name was for Brad Weisbord, his racing manager at the time. When Weisbord left, Zayat felt a name change was in order.

Last August, the colt became Graham N Spike for Graham Mandl, a Zayat family friend, and Spike, Mandl’s dog.

Zayat and his son, Justin, eventually had second Matt Slocum/AP Photo thoughts about Graham N HORSES ARE SEEN ON THE TRACK as lightning strikes at Churchill Downs on Friday in Louisville, Ky.

Asked Friday night for a Derby winner, Reed said he hadn’t made up his mind, but was leaning toward Union Rags, same as Nack. Union Rags and Bodemeister took turns as the favorite Friday.

Dullahan and the speedy Hansen were generating quite a buzz as well.

... there are five, six, seven horses with legitimate chances of winning it.”

— Dr. William Reed, heart surgeon and Stonecrest Farm owner morning handicapping all the horses, has been moving toward Bodemeister, and Bodemeister has been very impressive.”

Reed said it’s a tough race to forecast because, “there are five, six, seven horses with legitimate chances of winning it.”

And some, he said, that have no business running in it.

“Unfortunately, there will be people who will put a horse in the Derby so they can say they have a horse in the Derby and

“It’s not fair to the horse, and it’s not good for the race.”

So which athlete will emerge from the 20-horse field as the winner? Well,

with all due respect to the great storyteller Nack and the warm-hearted surgeon and his Derbyaddicted attorney, the win won’t go to Union Rags or Bodemeister. Neither

Hansen nor Dullahan will get the win.

Fine horses, all of them, but they have about as much chance of winning the Derby as Brock Berglund has of wearing

We just decided this isn’t the opportunity we should be taking.”

Mark Valeski is being pointed to the Peter Pan Stakes next weekend at New York’s Belmont Park.

The Derby decision relieved a lot of pressure around the Jones barn. He was relaxing with Buddy, a 4 1/2-year-old gray African parrot with red tail feathers, perched on his right shoulder. While Buddy has a large vocabulary, he is not much of a handicapper, Jones said.

Come post time today, Jones will be watching the Derby.

“I enjoy horse racing,” he said. “That’s what got me involved in this and I enjoy watching good horses run.”

No Scratches: All 20 Derby runners were still set to go Friday by the 9 a.m. deadline for scratches.

As a result, My Adonis, the also eligible horse, was excluded from the race.

a Kansas University football uniform.

Gemologist has won five races and got the win every time. That’s downplayed because he didn’t face competition the likes of Union Rags and Bodemeister. Javier Castellano has ridden Union Rags to victory and could have ridden him in the Derby.

Instead, he chose Gemologist. Some surmise he did so to stay on the good side of big-time trainer Todd Pletcher. Maybe. Or maybe Castellano knows a winner when he rides one.

Remember, some athletes just know how to win, regardless of the competition. Gemologist is one of them, and I’m willing to stake my newfound, self-annointed status as a full-blown expert on it.

NATIONAL LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Cubs’ Maholm going strong ————

Chicago hurler notches third straight victory The Associated Press

Cubs 5, Dodgers 4 CHICAGO — Paul Maholm looked shaky in his first two starts of the season, continuing a terrible stretch that started last year.

A couple weeks later, he’s on quite the little roll.

Maholm pitched six crisp innings for his third consecutive win, and the Chicago Cubs held on for a victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday.

“He’s commanding every one of his pitches,” manager Dale Sveum said.

“He’s getting ahead in the counts and putting guys away, in a pretty easy fashion really as far as efficiency and pitch counts.”

Maholm (3-2) allowed one run and three hits while improving to 1-5 with a 4.91 earned-run average in nine career starts against Los Angeles. The left-hander has won his past three outings after dropping his first two, allowing three runs over 18 1/3 innings during the streak.

“Being aggressive, mixing pitches, mixing location,” he said when asked about the run. “I would say more of a confidence and a comfort factor, getting used to everything and just kind of pitching my game.”

Matt Kemp hit a runscoring triple and scored on Andre Ethier’s sacrifice fly to get Los Angeles within one in the eighth.

But Kerry Wood got Juan Rivera to fly out to end the inning. Rafael Dolis then finished for his second save in three chances, taking advantage of his first opportunity since Carlos Marmol was removed from the closer’s role.

“It’s always tough to score runs,” Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said.

“Guys are making pitches.

(Maholm) kept us off balance. As the game went on, our biggest issues were those guys getting two-out runs.”

David DeJesus and Alfonso Soriano each had three hits to help the Cubs rebound from a disappointing loss at Cincinnati. Pinch-hitter Joe Mather homered in the sixth.

“To bounce back like we did I think says a lot about our team,” Mather said.

Jerry Hairston hit a solo homer and a run-scoring triple for NL West-leading Los Angeles, which has dropped three of four. Chad Billingsley (22) gave up four runs and eight hits in six innings.

“I felt good, I just made some mistakes over the plate,” Billingsley said.

“As far as everything else, I still felt pretty good out there.”

Sveum announced Friday he had decided to try a committee of relievers in the closer spot, making the move one day after Marmol walked three and failed to record an out while blowing a save opportunity in a 4-3 loss to the Reds. The erratic right-hander has two blown saves in four chances this season and a 6.23 ERA in 12 games overall.

“It just got to that point where we got to get him productive in some role and he was fine with it and understood,” Sveum said. “Hopefully we can get him going to where give him another chance and get him going to where he can get back in that role.”

The new approach worked out on the first day, but just barely.

The Cubs carried a 4-1 lead into the seventh but

CHICAGO CUBS STARTER PAUL MAHOLM DELIVERS A PITCH against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Maholm earned his third consecutive victory as the Cubs defeated the Dodgers, 5-4, on Friday in Chicago.

Ethier greeted James Russell with a leadoff double and scored on Hairston’s two-out rope into right field. Hairston hustled around to third and A.J. Ellis followed with a walk against Shawn Camp, leaving runners on the corners.

But Camp responded by striking out pinch-hitter Bobby Abreu on four pitches in the veteran’s first plate appearance with Los Angeles.

Maholm struck out four and walked none in his third consecutive sharp outing. He was struck on the right leg by Dee Gordon’s sixth-inning comebacker, but remained in the game after a few warmup pitches.

Maholm became the first big league starter to win three straight games after a winless stretch of nine or more starts since Houston’s Brett Myers last season, according to STATS, LLC. Maholm was 0-7 with a 7.03 ERA in nine previous starts before he beat Cincinnati on April 21.

Reds 6, Pirates 1 PITTSBURGH — Johnny Cueto remained unbeaten, giving up seven hits in his first complete game of the season as Cincinnati beat Pittsburgh.

The right-hander struck out three without a walk to improve to 4-0 and lower his ERA to 1.32.

Zack Cozart and Drew Stubbs homered on consecutive pitches in the seventh inning off Pittsburgh starter Kevin Correia (1-2) to give Cincinnati plenty of breathing room. Jay Bruce later added his eighth home run of the season off reliever Chris Resop.

Nate McLouth, starting in center field in place of an ill Andrew McCutchen, had two hits for the Pirates but Pittsburgh failed in its bid to win consecutive games for the first time in three weeks.

Diamondbacks 5, Mets 4 NEW YORK — Cody Ransom hit a two-run homer and a go-ahead single in the eighth inning to help Arizona beat the Mets, handing New York its fourth straight loss.

Paul Goldschmidt hit a tying, two-run double in the eighth and Arizona won a one-run game after losing two in a row at Washington, each by a run. Arizona improved to 1-7 when trailing after seven innings.

The Diamondbacks were down 4-2 heading into the eighth. Justin Upton started the rally when his grounder went through the legs of Mets first baseman Ike Davis for an error.

Nationals 4, Phillies 3, 11 innings WASHINGTON — Pinchhitter Wilson Ramos delivered an RBI single with two outs in the bottom of the 11th inning to give Washington a comeback victory over Philadelphia.

Steve Lombardozzi started the winning rally against Michael Schwimer (0-1) by singling with two outs, and 19-yearold Bryce Harper — the youngest player in the majors — drew his third walk of the game before Jayson Werth walked, too, loading the bases.

That brought up Ramos, who hit a 1-2 pitch to bring home Lombardozzi and set off a celebration, with

his teammates streaming out of the dugout to greet him at first base.

Ryan Perry (1-0), Washington’s sixth pitcher, earned the win.

Astros 5, Cardinals 4 HOUSTON — Jose Altuve put Houston on top with a three-run homer in the second inning.

The win is the fourth straight for the Astros and the second consecutive loss for the National League Central-leading Cardinals.

The game was tied at 2-2 before Altuve’s shot, which a fan in the top row of the Crawford Boxes in left field caught, to give Houston a 5-2 lead.

It was another good night for Altuve, who is among the top batters in the NL with a .360 average this season.

Houston starter Lucas Harrell (2-2) gave up seven hits and four runs in 5 1-3 innings. Closer Brett Myers allowed one hit in a scoreless ninth for his seventh save after three other relievers combined to pitch 2 2/3 scoreless innings.

YANKEES 6, ROYALS 2

Jeter, Sabathia subdue K.C. KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Leave it to CC Sabathia and Derek Jeter, a couple of grizzled veterans, to give the New York Yankees an uplifting performance when they need it the most.

Jeter hit a two-run homer to break open a close game, Sabathia went eight innings for the third straight time, and the Yankees beat the Kansas City Royals, 6-2, on Friday night. They snapped a three-game skid while also taking a bold first step after losing closer Mariano Rivera to injury.

“We lost three in a row.

We didn’t finish up the homestand the way we wanted. We had to deal with what we had to deal with yesterday. I thought it was important that we bounce back,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.

“We cashed in four runs with two outs. It was outstanding.”

An encouraging night began with Rivera’s announcement that he plans to return from a torn ACL and meniscus damage in his right knee rather than retire, and it ended when David Robertson struck out the side in the ninth to give Sabathia (4-0) his fourth straight victory.

“CC steps up when we need it,” said Jeter, who singled and scored on Mark Teixeira’s homer in the first before delivering a two-run shot of his own

NEW YORK’S DEREK JETER LAUNCHES A TWO-RUN HOME RUN during a four-run seventh inning. The Yankees defeated the Royals, 6-2, on Friday night in Kansas City, Mo. during a four-run seventh inning.

“He likes to be out there,” Jeter said. “He likes to finish games.”

Jeter’s homer off Bruce Chen (0-4) was his fifth of the season, a number he didn’t reach until Sept. 4 last season. He’s batting

a robust .404 this year, though he brusquely dismissed any notion that he’s playing above his own expectations.

“They are very good hitters. Right now Jeter is very hot,” Chen said. “I’m not saying he’s not a good hitter, but like right now, he’s on fire and hitting the ball well.”

The Yankees had reason to celebrate when Jeff Francoeur went down swinging for the final out.

Rivera told his teammates prior to the game that he plans to have surgery to repair a torn ACL and damaged meniscus in his right knee. The injury occurred Thursday night when baseball’s career saves leader was shagging fly balls near the warning track during batting practice.

Indians 6, Rangers 3 CLEVELAND — Johnny Damon hit a two-run triple and Jeanmar Gomez pitched seven strong innings to lead Cleveland over Texas on Friday night.

Gomez (2-1) gave up seven hits and three runs as Cleveland won for the fourth time in five games.

Texas has lost five of seven, but still leads the AL West.

Shin-Soo Choo and Jack Hannahan homered off Colby Lewis (3-1) to help Cleveland take an early lead. Damon’s drive off the wall in center was nearly caught by Josh Hamilton, who returned to the Rangers’ lineup after missing three games because of a sore back.

Chris Perez pitched the ninth for his 10th consecutive save. He is perfect since blowing the save in the season opener April 5.

The game ended with Choo making a leaping catch at the right-field wall to snare a drive off the bat of pinch-hitter Adrian Beltre with a runner on first.

Damon, in his first home game since signing as a free agent with the Indians, went 1 for 4. His triple went over the head of Hamilton, who nearly made a sensational catch just as he crashed into the wall. Casey Kotchman and Hannahan scored as Damon got to third base and clapped his hands after putting Cleveland ahead 6-3.

Choo’s two-run homer made it 2-0 in the second.

The 414-foot drive to center snapped an 0-for-14 slump and was Choo’s first homer since Aug. 23.

Texas, which had won 11 of its previous 12 games at Progressive Field, scored in the third. Mitch Moreland doubled to left and later scored on a sacrifice fly by Ian Kinsler.

Hannahan made it 3-1 in the bottom half with his second homer, which originally appeared to be a standup triple. His drive down the right-field line caromed off the wall and by the time right fielder Nelson Cruz tracked it down, Hannahan was standing on third.

Tigers 5, White Sox 4 DETROIT — Jhonny Peralta’s two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning gave Detroit a win over Chicago.

Chicago led 4-2 after Gordon Beckham’s tiebreaking two-run shot in the seventh, but Detroit got a run back in the eighth on an RBI single

by Miguel Cabrera. After Alex Avila’s one-out single in the ninth, Peralta ended it with a homer to right-center off Matt Thornton (1-1). Jose Valverde (2-0) pitched the top of the ninth for the win.

Chicago’s Jake Peavy allowed three runs and seven hits in 7 2/3 innings, but the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead for him.

Yankees’ Rivera promises to return KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — New York Yankees closer Mariano Rivera says he will return to the mound by 2013, vowing to overcome a knee injury that figures to end his season.

Rivera had hinted at the start of spring training that he would retire after this season, and he wasn’t sure what he would do after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament and damaging the meniscus in his right knee while shagging fly balls during batting practice Thursday.

In the v i s i t o r ’ s Rivera clubhouse at Kauffman Stadium on Friday, the 42-year-old closer sat on a stool in front of his locker and firmly said that he will not allow his career to end this way.

“I’m coming back. Write it down in big letters. I’m not going out like this,” Rivera said, his almost happy-go-lucky demeanor in stark contrast to the somber mood of the previous night.

“This has me thinking,” Rivera said, “I can’t go down like this.”

Rivera hurt his knee when his foot caught on the turf near the outfield wall before the series opener against Kansas City. An MRI taken during the game revealed the extent of the injury, and Rivera dabbed teams from his eyes when he spoke in the clubhouse Thursday night.

He then went back to his hotel room, reflected on his sterling career and made his decision not to retire. He holds outside hope of returning late this season.

“Miracles happen,” Rivera said with a smile.

“I’m a positive man. The only thing is that I feel sorry I let down my teammates. Besides that I’m OK.” Rivera spoke with New York Mets medical director Dr. David Altchek, who performed surgery on his shoulder following the 2008 season, and was told that he should be ready to work out again in about five months. Rivera hopes that allows him to pitch by the start of spring training.

“You know, I just kind of had a feeling in talking to him last night that it wasn’t the way he wants to go out,” manager Joe Girardi said. “He still has to get through this rehab and we’ll see where he’s at, but Mo wants to do things on his own terms, and determine when he’s done, and I don’t think he wanted to be done because of an injury.”

Rivera remained with the team Friday night in Kansas City. He plans to return to New York this weekend before consulting with Yankees team physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad.

The right knee was tightly wrapped and Rivera was walking with crutches. He said there was significant swelling when he took a shower, and that will have to subside before he can undergo surgery. Rivera wasn’t sure when that will happen.

“I love to play the game.

To me, I don’t think going out like this is the right way,” Rivera said.

“I don’t want to retire because I got hurt in the way that it happened. I don’t think like that. With the strength of the Lord, I just have to continue.”

ON THE NEXT FEW PAGES,OUR PANEL CONTEMPLATES “WHAT WOULD JOHN BROWN DO?”

t’s a question oft pondered: What would our nation’s

The radical 19th century abolitionist defended Lawrence from raiders, fought to make Kansas a free state and spilled blood to raid a U.S. military arsenal in hopes of sparking a rebellion to end slavery. In this 150th anniversary year of the Civil War, John $3 Brown is now a Lawrence icon whose image appears on many front license plates and at the occasional University of Kansas sporting event. But is that a good thing? In short, is John Brown a hero for our times?

We assembled a panel of John Brown experts and questioned them about Lawrence and John Brown. The questions and their answers are a sometimes humorous attempt to ask WWJBD? (What Would John Brown Do?) if

he pulled a Rip Van Winkle and strolled across Massachusetts Street. But they are equally a serious examination of one of Lawrence’s most controversially important figures and our assessment of his legacy.

“This kind of reflection,” explains historian and panel member Napoleon Crews, “is important to helping us understand how we got to be where we are, as a society and as a country, on important issues such as human and civil rights.”

“I personally think he is one of the most important figures in American history,” adds fellow historian and panel member Kerry Altenbernd. “That’s the thing about John Brown—he does not go away.”

Altenbernd: Even if he didn’t drink himself, he would not have been so dogmatic as to shun those that did imbibe, so he would likely go with you to Free State.

Armitage: If he downed a John Brown in front of the plaque at the Free State Brewery, he could draw a crowd and ask all to mend their ways in the moral cause of the day.

Gridley: John Brown, being a Calvinist and Puritan, I imagine would abstain from downing the Kansas ale named in his honor. He wasn’t a killjoy, though.

RIO DE JANEIRO — Officials in Rio de Janeiro are trying to make one of the globe’s most beautiful cities even more stunning.

Some 50 workers began tearing down billboards in front of iconic Guanabara Bay on Thursday, launching a campaign to remove distractions from the view of the emerald green Atlantic rain forest on the mountainsides and the white-sand beaches where visitors from around the world will be tanning during the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympics.

Mayor Eduardo Paes has ordered the removal of massive billboards, banner advertisements covering buildings and illegal advertising stuck to other spaces.

The “Rio Limpo,” or “Clean Rio” campaign, focuses first on downtown Rio and the city’s wealthy southern zone that includes posh beach neighborhoods such as Copacabana and Ipanema. Eventually it will spread throughout the city of 6 million people.

Peter A. Williams, of Lawrence, took second place in the graduate division of the 56th Snyder Book Collecting Contest at Kansas University. The contest was established

by Elizabeth Snyder in 1957 to cultivate and recognize students’ interest in collecting books. Williams won for “Beauty is a Rare Thing: A Collection of Works by, about, and Inspired by Ornette Coleman.”

Army Pvt. Cody D. McMoran, of De Soto, has graduated from basic combat training at Fort Jackson, Columbia, S.C. During the nine weeks of training, he studied the Army mission, history, tradition and core values, physical fitness, and received instruction and practice in basic combat skills, military weapons, chemical warfare and bayonet training, drill and ceremony, marching, rifle marksmanship, armed and unarmed combat, map reading, field tactics, military courtesy, military justice system, basic first aid, foot marches, and field training exercises.

The Kansas University political science department honored its top students with awards and induction into Pi Sigma Alpha, the national political science honor society, on April 19 at the Adams Alumni Center. Criteria for induction include a 3.5 GPA in all political science courses with a cumulative GPA of at least 3.4 for undergraduates. For graduate students, the average must be at least 3.5. Area inductees include Laura Dean, of Lawrence, a graduate student who received the Walter Thompson Scholarship; Kevin Frantz, of Lawrence, a senior, inducted into Pi Sigma Alpha; Matt Miles, of Law

ronmental degradation in a city renowned for its natural and architectural beauty,” City Hall said in a statement.

The first targets were three billboards for a camera company, a bank and a make of cars perched on top of a 13-floor building in front of Guanabara Bay and near the Santos Dumont airport.

Billboards advertising Nikon cameras and Kia cars were taken down from the building located on Beira Mar Avenue that links downtown Rio to Flamengo Beach. The billboards were among the first thing travelers landing at Rio’s Santos Dumont domestic airport saw as they arrived.

Rodrigo Prado, a spokesman for City Hall’s Special Public Order Department, which is in charge of the campaign, said Clean Rio will further enhance the city known for landmarks such as the Christ the Redeemer statue and Sugarloaf Mountain.

France fetes Joan of Arc’s 600th birthday

By Thomas Adamson Associated Press

ORLEANS, FRANCE — The normally tranquil city of Orleans is buzzing with festivities over the next two weeks to mark the 600th birthday of one of France’s best cultural exports: Joan of Arc. Looking appropriately cinematic, the Loire River swarmed with wooden boats carrying locals in medieval garb on Tuesday, reenacting Joan of Arc’s famous entry into the city in 1429.

The day that saw Orleans liberated from English invaders has been dramatized in film the world over, most famously in 1948’s Oscar-winning epic of the French martyr with Ingrid Bergman, and more recently, in Luc Besson’s award-winning 1999 blockbuster with Milla Jovovich.

Joan’s place in the history books has not only been sealed through cinema, but through myriad novels, poems, rock songs, operas and plays over the centuries, making her one of the most talked about figures in history.

“It’s marvelous to see the children dressing up and learning about

this great French heroine who’s known all over the world,” said Jacques Dubarre, dressed in a velvet mantel. “Of course we’re also having fun.”

In a testament to her international appeal, some 600 contemporary artists — from as far as the U.S., Japan and Russia — have made portraits of Joan of Arc through the ages that will be projected on the City Hall.

A medieval market will be the scene of period cuisine and music, while a sound and light show will be projected on the city’s Gothic cathedral to celebrate her life.

Despite the enduring fame, it’s been a rocky ride for the teenage legend.

At just 17, Joan led the French army to victory, only to be burned at the stake as a heretic two years later.

She was heralded as a political symbol of the French far left during World War II, only to be snatched up as the mascot of the far right 30 years later.

It seems like the only thing that anyone can agree on is that she is the ultimate French icon.

“The two most famous figures from France are

Napoleon and Joan of Arc, no others quite come close,” said Russian journalist Vladimir Dobrovolsky, one of the estimated 40,000 people who attended Tuesday.

But why does a woman whose achievements spanned a mere two years inspire so much fascination?

“She achieved greatness but died young and was wronged. She had strong convictions and character but she was a woman, a virgin,” said Olivier Bouzy, historian and adviser on Luc Besson’s 1999 movie, “The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc.” ‘‘Yes, in many ways she was ahead of her time.”

In France she is seen as a sort of symbol of the nation (“nation” being a feminine word in French), but the myths around her began relatively late.

It was in World War I that an effigy of Joan of Arc in armor, which appeared on pictures and postcards, first came to symbolize war and nationhood — in this case, the French fight against Germany.

“Yes, she is the symbol of the nation at war, but the biggest myth is that

she actually led the French in battle. She was a prophet who morally guided the army to victory. She was no commander or fighter,” said Bouzy.

Questions about her exact identity have left subsequent eras room to fill in the gaps and allowed diverse groups to claim her as inspiration. French far right leader Marine Le Pen staged her anti-immigrant National Front’s annual May 1 rally Tuesday in front of a huge Joan of Arc banner.

Bouzy predicts Joan’s identity may shift yet again: “Since the ’80s she has been an extreme right political figure, but after the Luc Besson film, she’s back in the realm of culture, softer.”

There indeed seems to be renewed interest in the “softer” cultural face of Joan of Arc. She is currently the subject of a play by the well-known Japanese drama company Theatre No, which will run in Orleans from today.

“Everyone wants to appropriate her, and have their piece,” said Orleans deputy mayor, Jean-Pierre Gabelle, “but this festival will put her back where she belongs.”

Dear Annie: This past year, an old high school friend looked me up after nearly 30 years. She was in town to visit her dying father.

Our youthful parting had been quite unpleasant. She called to apologize for anything she had done to offend me in the past, which is commendable, especially because she has little memory of those years. She was an abused child.

I didn’t tell her that one of her brothers raped me when we were teens. I figured she’d had enough trauma in her life, plus she was dealing with her dad dying. At one point, I came face to face with my rapist and realized I was no longer afraid of him, and that the past had no power over me. I felt I had no need to confront him or tell his sister.

However, in hindsight, I wonder whether I did the right thing by keeping this a secret

Should I have told her? — Silent Friend Dear Friend: We are impressed with how well you’ve gotten over a horrific, traumatizing event. If you believe the brother is capable of harming another person, we hope you will report him, not only to your friend, but to the authorities, even at this late date. Your friend’s fishing expedition may have been for other reasons, but if she was an abused child, it’s quite possible

Syfy sets sail on ‘Treasure Island’ adaptation Syfy presents a four-hour adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s “Treasure Island” (7 p.m.).

An impressive cast includes Eddie Izzard (as Long John Silver), Elijah Wood and Donald Sutherland. Glimpses of Wood, innumerable special effects and the marathon running time may appeal to fans of the “Lord of the Rings” franchise. For the rest of us, this talky, sweaty, seagoing adventure takes forever to set sail.

BRIEFLY NBC employees fired over Martin reports NEW YORK — Three employees of NBC or an NBCowned television station have now lost their jobs because of editing changes to a call made to police by George Zimmerman on the night he shot Trayvon Martin.

Lilia Luciano, an NBC News correspondent based in Miami, is no longer working at the network, spokeswoman Amy Lynn said. Her departure came as a result of an investigation into her March 20 “Today” show report on the Martin case.

Each of the reports on either “Today” or NBC’s Miami station WTVJ involve editing of Zimmerman’s phone call to a dispatcher that emphasizes his identification of Martin as a black male. Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer in Sanford, Fla., is charged with second-degree murder in the death of 17-year-old Martin, a case that has increased racial tensions.

In the report involving Luciano, audio of the police phone call was edited to insert a reference to Martin’s race that had been made later in the conversation.

Neb. A.G.: Ordinances protecting gays illegal OMAHA, NEB. — Nebraska cities can’t adopt ordinances protecting people from discrimination for being gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender because the state’s anti-discrimination laws don’t extend to sexual orientation, the state attorney general’s office said in a legal opinion issued Friday.

Voters can approve changes to city charters to extend protections to groups not covered by state law, but local governments lack the authority, the opinion said.

“Nebraska statutes do not authorize political subdivisions in Nebraska, including municipalities, to expand protected classifications beyond the scope of the civil rights classifications created in state statute,” Attorney General Jon Bruning said in a statement after the release.

The opinion, which critics predicted would get shot down in court, was issued in response to a request by conservative state Sen. Beau McCoy, of Omaha, who introduced legislation this year that would have barred counties and cities from adopting anti-discrimination ordinances that go beyond statewide rules. The bill didn’t advance out of committee.

U.S., China forge tentative deal on Chinese activist

By Charles Hutzler and Matthew Lee Associated Press

BEIJING — With a series of quickly choreographed steps, the U.S. and China outlined a tentative deal Friday to send a blind legal activist to America for study and potentially bring a face-saving end to a delicate diplomatic crisis.

The arrangements, if kept, promise to give Chen Guangcheng much of what he wanted: a chance to live with his family in safety and to get a formal legal education.

It would also allow Washington and Beijing to put aside a rancorous human rights dispute to focus on managing their rivalry for global influence.

As part of the deal, China’s Foreign Ministry said Chen can apply for travel permits to study abroad.

BLIND LAWYER CHEN GUANGCHENG, CENTER, HOLDS HANDS with U.S. ambassador to China, Gary Locke, right, and U.S. State Department legal adviser Harold Koh, left, Wednesday at a hospital in Beijing in this photo released by the US Embassy Beijing Press Office.

The State Department said an American university, later identified as New York University, has offered a fellowship for Chen with provisions for his family. Spokeswoman

Victoria Nuland said the U.S. expects Beijing to process the travel permits quickly, and once done, visas would be issued.

“I don’t think this is empty talk here. I think

they mean this is a way out, and it’s a dignified way out. It’s a good way out for the Chinese government and our government and for Chen and his family,” said Jerome Cohen, an NYU law professor who met Chen nearly a decade ago, advised him during the negotiations and arranged the fellowship.

Clinton In a sign that not all was settled, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton offered a guarded assessment.

“Over the course of the day, progress has been made to help him have the future that he wants, and we will be staying in touch with him as this process moves forward,” said Clinton, who was in

Beijing for annual strategic talks.

The progress, however, seemed significant after a bizarre, rocky crisis triggered when Chen, an inspirational figure in China’s human rights movement, escaped from house arrest in his rural home and reached the U.S. Embassy in Beijing last Friday. First saying he wanted to stay in China, a smiling Chen emerged from the fortresslike embassy to a hospital reunion with his wife and two children only to say hours later that he changed his mind.

In cellphone calls from his hospital room with friends and foreign media, he said he and his family felt unsafe and he wanted to go abroad, undoing a deal U.S. and Chinese officials worked out to guarantee their safe relocation to a city in China where he could study law.

5 charged in Sept. 11 attack Study: Breast cancer is rare in men, but return to Guantanamo

By Ben Fox Associated Press

GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, CUBA — The man who once bragged about planning Sept. 11 “from A to Z” may mount a defense after all to charges that he orchestrated the worst terror attack in U.S. history, with Khalid Sheikh families of Mohammed, the dead charged with w a t c h i n g four others i n t e n t l y with planning from the and helping to U.S. on carry out the closed-cir- 2001 terror atcuit TV. tack that sent K h a l i d hijacked jetlinS h e i k h ers into the M o h a m - World Trade m e d , Center and charged Pentagon, will with four be arraigned o t h e r s today. with planning and helping to carry out the 2001 terror attack that sent hijacked jetliners into the World Trade Center and Pentagon, will be arraigned today at the U.S. military base in Cuba.

Mohammed had previously mocked the military tribunal and said he would welcome the death penalty.

His co-defendant, Ramzi Bi-

nalshibh, also told the court he was proud of the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Washington and Shanksville, Pa. But “I don’t think anyone is going to plead guilty,” said Jim Harrington, Binalshibh’s civilian lawyer, who added the defendants are expected to fight the charges against them, which include murder and terrorism and carry a potential death penalty.

Harrington declined to say what would be the basis of his defense, and lawyers for Mohammed did not respond to messages seeking comment.

The men, held in a secret prison in Guantanamo that is under such tight security even its exact location on the base is classified, have not been seen in public since a pretrial hearing the day after Obama’s Jan. 21, 2009, inauguration.

Their arraignment comes more than three years after the Obama administration’s failed effort to try the suspects in a federal civilian court and close the prison at the U.S. base in Cuba. Attorney General Eric Holder announced in 2009 that Mohammed and his codefendants would be tried blocks from the site of the destroyed trade center in downtown Manhattan, but the plan was shelved after

New York officials cited huge costs to secure the neighborhood and family opposition to trying the suspects in the U.S. Six family members who won a lottery to attend the proceedings will face Mohammed and the other men in court; others were watching on closedcircuit video at military bases in New York City and the eastern U.S. Cliff and Christina Russell traveled from their Rockaway Beach neighborhood in New York to honor the memory of Cliff’s younger brother, Stephen, a firefighter killed responding to the attacks. Cliff Russell said he hopes the tribunal will end with the death penalty for Mohammed and his co-defendants.

“I’m not looking forward to ending someone else’s life and taking satisfaction in it, but it’s the most disgusting, hateful, awful thing I ever could think of if you think about what was perpetrated,” he said.

The men never entered formal pleas in previous hearings, but Mohammed had told the court that he would confess to planning the attacks and hoped to be a “martyr.” He dismissed the military justice system, saying, “After torturing, they transferred us to inquisition land in Guantanamo.”

TransCanada submits new Interior department proposes application for oil pipeline new drilling rules on public land

By Matthew Daly Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Canadian company trying to build the disputed Keystone XL pipeline in the U.S. submitted a new application for the project Friday after changing the route to avoid environmentally sensitive land in Nebraska.

TransCanada said it applied again to the State Department for permission to build the pipeline to carry oil from tar sands in western Canada to a company hub in Steele City, Neb. From there, the project would link up with other pipelines operated by the company to carry oil to refineries on the Texas Gulf Coast.

President Barack Obama blocked the pipeline earlier this year, citing uncertainty over the Nebraska route — a decision that drew fire from Republicans and industry groups.

Calgary-based TransCanada had proposed a new route last month that would veer east around the groundwater-rich Sandhills region before looping back to the original route.

State Department approval is needed because the $7 billion pipeline would cross a U.S. border. The department confirmed Friday

Calgary-based TransCanada had proposed a new route last month that would veer east around the groundwater-rich Sandhills region before looping back to the original route. the application for the new route had been received.

The pipeline filing came on the same day as a disappointing report on U.S. job growth. The Labor Department said employers pulled back on hiring in April for the second straight month, evidence of an economy still growing only sluggishly, though the overall jobless rate slipped to 8.1 percent as more people gave up looking for work.

Obama is under pressure to support the pipeline from Republicans and business and labor leaders who argue it would create jobs; the State Department estimates it could result in up to 6,000 new jobs.

“The multibillion-dollar Keystone XL pipeline project will reduce the United States’ dependence on foreign oil and support job growth by putting thousands of Americans to

work,” said Russ Girling, TransCanada’s president and chief executive officer.

“Keystone XL will transport U.S. crude oil from the very large Bakken supply basin in Montana and North Dakota, along with Canadian oil, to U.S. refineries.”

The pipeline’s opponents, including many Democrats and environmental groups, say it would transport “dirty oil” from tar sands in Alberta, Canada, that would require huge amounts of energy to extract. They also worry about a possible spill.

The pipeline would travel through Montana, South Dakota, Kansas and Oklahoma, in addition to Nebraska.

In blocking the pipeline in January, Obama said there was not enough time for a fair review before a looming deadline forced on him by congressional Republicans. The action did not kill the project but put off a tough choice on the once-obscure pipeline, which has become a flashpoint in the bitter partisan political fight over jobs and the environment and a focus of the presidential campaign between Obama his likely Republican opponent, Mitt Romney. Romney has called on Obama to approve the pipeline.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration said Friday it will for the first time require companies drilling for oil and natural gas on public and Indian lands to publicly disclose chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing operations.

The proposed “fracking” rules also set standards for proper construction of wells and wastewater disposal.

Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said the long-awaited rules will allow continued expansion of drilling while protecting public health and safety.

“As we continue to offer millions of acres of America’s public lands for oil and gas development, it is critical that the public have full confidence that the right safety and environmental protections are in place,” Salazar said.

The proposed rules will “modernize our management of well-stimulation activities, including hydraulic fracturing, to make sure that fracturing operations conducted on public and Indian lands follow common-sense industry best practices,” he said.

The new rules, which have been under consid-

SIGNS OPPOSING THE HYDRAULIC FRACTURING PROCESS OF DRILLING FOR GAS, or “fracking,” are posted Feb. 23 in Evans City, Pa. The Obama administration said Friday it will for the first time require companies drilling for oil and natural gas on public and Indian lands to publicly disclose chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing operations. eration for a year and a half, were softened after industry groups expressed strong concerns about an initial proposal leaked earlier this year. The proposal would allow companies to file disclosure reports after drilling operations are completed, rather than before they begin, as initially proposed. Industry groups said the earlier proposal could have caused lengthy delays.

Some environmental groups criticized the change as a cave-in to industry, but Salazar said the rules were never intended to cause de-

lays, but to ensure that the public is “fully aware of the chemicals that are being injected into the underground” by companies seeking to produce oil and natural gas.

The Bureau of Land Management, which oversees drilling on public lands, estimates that 90 percent of the approximately 3,400 wells currently drilled on federal and Indian lands using hydraulic fracturing techniques.

The rules would not affect drilling on private land, where the bulk of shale exploration is taking place.
