9th & N.H. hotel work to begin in June

Construction work on a multistory hotel at Ninth and New Hampshire is now expected to begin in June, ending a monthslong process in which the lot for the project has sat vacant.

Doug Compton, the lead developer for a project to build a 91-room TownePlace Suites by Marriott at the intersection, said the project has undergone changes since the beginning of the year but is close to being finalized. “It has been more complex in working with Marriott than we anticipated, but it has been CITY more complex in a good way,� COMMISSION Compton said Tuesday night after receiving a change in the project’s incentives package at City Hall. “Marriott is constantly changing rooms, changing details to make it a better project.�

After city commissioners on Tuesday unanimously approved a change that increases the amount of tax increment financing dollars that can be used to pay for a private parking garage for the hotel, Compton said he expects construction to begin in early June on the project.

Tuesday night’s City Hall approval largely was viewed as a technical change to an already-approved package of incentives.

The hotel project and a 114-unit, multistory apartment project on the northeast corner of the intersection have been approved to use tax increment financing and transportation development district funds.

But the previously approved agreement placed a $3.5 million cap on the amount of TIF funds that can be spent on the underground parking garage to serve the hotel.

Bill Self, who has signed some incredible players in his 19 years as a college basketball head coach, on Tuesday reeled in the top prospect of his career.

That player, of course, is Andrew Wiggins, a 6-foot-8 senior forward from Hun-

LEGISLATIVE WRAP-UP SESSION

Conservative Republicans at odds over budget, taxes

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Kansas’ elected leaders might describe themselves as conservative Republicans, but, at this point, they aren’t getting along, and that means the state’s budget and tax system remained up in the air Tuesday as the 2013 wrap-up session dragged on.

Gov. Sam Brownback and Senate President Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, have endorsed a plan to keep the state sales tax at 6.3 percent instead of allowing it to fall to 5.7 percent on July 1 as current law dictates.

Merrick The higher sales tax Brownback would be used to cushion tax cuts, according to Wathe budget blow from last gle. year’s income tax cuts and But House Speaker Ray help pay for future income Merrick, R-Stilwell, wants

The Legislature returned last Wednesday to start the wrap-up session, but not much headway has been made on these issues since then.

One of the major obstacles to hammering out a budget agreement concerns funding of higher education.

Wiggins, who averaged 23.4 points and 11.2 rebounds last season for 30-3 Huntington Prep, has been compared to the Miami Heatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s LeBron James. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I saw LeBron play in high school.

Self said he might compare Wiggins to a former NBA star. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard LeBron. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see that. A lot of people say Tracy McGrady,â&#x20AC;?

Self noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if he shoots as well as Tracy at the same age.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a unique guy.

You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to put too many expectations, pressure on him. They will be on him anyway. I think people will enjoy watching him play.â&#x20AC;?

Wiggins, who is originally from Toronto, likely will remain up North this summer and perhaps play for Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Under-19 national team.

Agreed to send a letter to the Kansas attorney general asking for time to create a plan to comply with the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new concealed carry laws. The new state law gives cities a chance to be exempted from the law until at least Jan. 1, 2014.

Eventually, the law might require the city to either install metal detectors at the entrances of city buildings â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like City Hall â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or else allow licensed concealed carry permit holders to bring weapons into the buildings.

Kansas Senate advances NBAF bonds TOPEKA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Kansas Senate has given first-round approval to Gov. Sam Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal to authorize an additional $202 million in bonds for a new, national biodefense lab in Manhattan.

The bill advanced Tuesday on a voice vote after brief debate. Approval on a second vote scheduled today would send it to the House.

Brownback has said the measure fulfills the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to fund part of the cost of the National

Bio and Agro-Defense Facility at Kansas State University.

The laboratory would research dangerous animal diseases and replace an aging facility on Plum Island, N.Y. Its projected cost has more than doubled to $1.15 billion since Kansas landed the project in 2009.

Kansas previously authorized $105 million in bonds for the lab.

President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest budget proposal includes $714 million for the project.

$1M gift to enable geology position at KU

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com

Hubert “Hub” Hall didn’t always dream of a career in geology.

It wasn’t until he enrolled in the class taught by a particularly inspiring Kansas University geology professor that Hall knew the field was for him, said his widow, Kathleen Hall of Lecompton.

Hub Hall went on to work more than 30 years as a petroleum geologist, a job that took the couple all over the globe.

KU announced Tuesday that Kathleen Hall has made a $1 million leadership gift to establish the Hubert H. and Kathleen M. Hall Professorship in Geology at the school. The professorship’s inaugural recipient will be Gene Rankey, KU associate professor of geology.

The Halls both earned bachelor’s degrees from

Social worker’s devotion to patients’ true wishes leads to hospice care award

By Giles Bruce gbruce@ljworld.com

Felicia Shockey isn’t your average social worker.

She has arranged for a patient to ride on a Harley Davidson alongside the Patriot Guard. She helped another fly in a hot-air balloon, checking an item off the top of his bucket list. She lets patients drink alcohol or eat steak — if that’s what they want.

LAWRENCE SOCIAL WORKER Felicia Shockey is the inaugural recipient of the Crossroads Hospice Caring More Award.

Recently, Shockey provided a training workshop for social workers where she used gloves to demonstrate how nerve loss and arthritis affect seniors’ hand mobility and dexterity.

The Kansas State Board of Education heard a barrage of criticism Tuesday over the reading and math standards it adopted two and a half years ago.

During the “citizens open forum” of the board’s meeting, which usually only lasts about 30 minutes, the state board listened for an hour and a half as speaker after speaker from many parts of the state spoke out against the new Common Core standards SCHOOLS for reading and math.

SOUND OFF

Q:

What was the noisy party at the Douglas County Fairgrounds on April 26, from about 6 p.m. to 11 p.m.?

How come those things are allowed to go on?

The event was a dance party organized by Life in Color â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the same group that organized the Color Run in October. County officials gave the group permission to hold the event, said Bill Bell, director of maintenance for the fairgrounds, without realizing how loud the music would be. The organizers turned down the volume at the request of officials after nearby residents complained of the noise.

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT

Police are looking for a burglar who struck the same storage unit two days in a row this week and battered a Lawrence resident who caught him in the act.

A Lawrence resident had reported several items stolen Sunday from a storage unit in the basement of a property in the 2100 block of Kasold Drive, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman. Among the items were a table saw, assorted hand tools and two motorcycle helmets. About 4 p.m.

Monday, the victim discovered the burglar returning to loot the storage unit a second time, confronted the man and pinned him up against a wall.

The burglar persuaded the property owner to let him go, McKinley said, promising to return the stolen items. But when released, the burglar struck the resident and fled on foot. Police describe the burglar as a white man, about 6 feet tall and about 30 years old, with a scruffy beard.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Lawrence Police Department at 785830-7430.

Others said that they felt as though they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t getting enough information because all of the discussions were held behind closed doors between Merrick, Wagle and Brownback.

servatives were having so much difficulty seeing eye to eye. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The blame used to be always on the Senate moderate Republicans because they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t willing to compromise with the conservative House.

You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t blame them for that now because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re gone,â&#x20AC;? he said.

A slew of moderate Republican senators were defeated in the Republican Party primary last August, putting the Senate under the control of conservatives.

Morrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; name surfaces One of those defeated in the GOP primary was former Senate President Steve Morris, whose name has surfaced in political circles as possibly running against Brownback in 2014.

Contacted by phone, Morris, a Republican from Hugoton, said he had no plans to run for governor, but he added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;In this business, you never want to say â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;never.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Morris said there had been discussion around the state of trying to challenge Brownback, a conservative Republican, with an independent or thirdparty candidate. He said there is probably no way a moderate Republican could defeat Brownback during the GOP primary because of the strength of conservatives within the party.

Morris said Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s income tax cuts are hurting the state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The tax plan that the governor engineered last year was a big mistake, and this (Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desire to eliminate the state income tax altogether) would just compound that mistake,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Morris was one of nine moderate Republican senators who were defeated in the GOP primary in August 2012. The moderates were targeted

by Wichita-based Koch Industries and groups loyal to Brownback, such as the Kansas Chamber of Commerce and Kansans for Life. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all part of her mission to assist local people direct their own care. She says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the best way to keep them happy, healthy and stress-free.

KU in 1949, and Kathleen Hall said her husband had other family ties to the university that made the professorship a good fit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His parents both graduated from KU, as did his two brothers, and their father was director of the KU Natural History Museum and head of zoology,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a very soft place in our hearts for KU.â&#x20AC;?

Hub Hallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s geology mentor at KU was L.R. Laudon, â&#x20AC;&#x153;a spellbinding lecturer,â&#x20AC;? Kathleen Hall said. Laudon left KU to teach at the University of Wisconsin, where Hub Hall went to receive his masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and doctorate degrees in geology.

at this a little bit differently,â&#x20AC;? King said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are just now becoming awake to this because it was really brought in through a back-door effort.â&#x20AC;?

Few of the people who spoke said they objected to the specific content of the standards, but most did share the opinion that they represent a form of federal intrusion into state and local education matters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already taken over our health care, and now theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to take over our education system,â&#x20AC;? said one woman who addressed the board. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Enough is enough. People are tired. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tired of not being listened to. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tired of not being heard.

But most of all weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tired of bureaucrats trying to tell us what to do at our local and state level.â&#x20AC;?

Most state board members, however, appeared

unmoved by the testimony. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think these are Kansas college and career-ready standards,â&#x20AC;? said newly elected board member Jim McNiece, a Wichita Republican. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a great deal of input.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pleased with the direction weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gone, the board prior to my arrival as well as this board.â&#x20AC;?

Board Chairwoman Jana Shaver, an Independence Republican who was a member of the board in 2010, said she also was not convinced by the speakers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You know, they talked about myth and fact,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of course, we have our facts that we have researched. We put a lot of thought and time into deciding about that in 2010.â&#x20AC;?

the lives of their choice, no matter their physical or mental limitations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A large part of my job is advocating for residents,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Moving from the medical model of health care, which is very stale and static, to resident-directed care, and letting people know they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to take their medications, is very different.â&#x20AC;?

Shockey isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t one to tell patients what to do, or to schedule their meals, activities and sleeping patterns. No one wants to live like that in youth and middle age, so why would they as seniors? Plus, the people she treats are especially vulnerable, as theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re undergoing the difficult transition from living in a house with family members and belongings to a retirement community with a bunch of strangers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think a huge thing in working with the elderly community is getting to know them as people,â&#x20AC;? said Jeannie Thomas, executive director of Lenexa-based Crossroads

Hospice, which gives out the Caring More Award. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A good social worker finds out who each person is and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to them and knows that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a person, not just a number or someone who fills a bed.â&#x20AC;?

Shockey said she knew she wanted to go into social work after living in Germany, where her husband was serving in the military, and seeing the joy Afghan refugees had even in the most difficult of circumstances. She also discovered that she was able to communicate with people of different cultures and tongues simply by showing them she was there to help.

And she isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just giving at work: The 32-year-old mother of two is a foster parent for homeless animals from the Lawrence Humane Society and acts as a guardian for local elderly and disabled residents with no one left to speak for them.

The Hallsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; professorship is envisioned for a mid-career faculty member or an incoming professor. Recipients will have a research or teaching focus in sedimentary geology or in an area of research complementary to the energy industry.

A professorship is a university or academic appointment that is supported fully or partly by earnings from a permanently endowed fund.

Previous gifts from the Halls have benefited other areas of KU, including the Natural History Museum and the Spencer Museum of Art, and created the Hall Nature Reserve, which is part of the

now-3,400-acre KU Field Station, which Hub Hallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father also championed in the 1940s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hub and Kathy have been tremendous friends to the entire university,â&#x20AC;?

Bob Goldstein, KU associate dean of natural sciences and mathematics, said in a KU news release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This professorship leaves a legacy to the Department of Geology that will recognize that friendship for decades to come.

It will assure that the department will attract and retain the best faculty members in a teaching and research area that is important to all.â&#x20AC;?

Judicial-selection plan fails

By John Hanna Associated Press

TOPEKA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A plan to change how Kansas fills vacancies on its two highest courts foundered Tuesday when the Kansas Bar Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board decided to oppose it.

Meanwhile, state Supreme Court Chief Justice Lawton Nuss accused Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Jeff King, a key legislative backer of the proposal, of trying to exert undue pressure for it. King said the allegation was unfounded and called for an apology.

The proposal would amend the Kansas Constitution to require Senate confirmation for the governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appointments to the Supreme Court and state Court of Appeals.

Lawmakers who support such a change didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think it would pass without an endorsement from the Kansas Bar Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leaders.

But the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Board of Governors voted unanimously during a private teleconference Tuesday to oppose the measure, later focusing much of its criticism on how the mea-

sure would reorganize the nine-member, statewide nominating commission that screens applicants for appellate court vacancies.

Under the plan, the governor would appoint five members, and four would be lawyers elected by other lawyers, reversing the current ratio.

The commission currently names three finalists for each vacancy, and the governor appoints one, with no role for legislators. Supporters say the process minimizes the politics involved in judicial selection and preserves the courtsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; independence, but critics say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not open enough.

The decision by the Bar Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board likely ends attempts to pass a proposed constitutional change this year, with lawmakers hoping to wrap up the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business this week. But supporters promise to pursue a proposal next year.

The Bar Association was wary of change but floated its own plans because of legislatorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; strong interest in the issue. Its president, Lee Smithyman, an Overland Park attorney, said the board

is â&#x20AC;&#x153;resolutelyâ&#x20AC;? in favor of â&#x20AC;&#x153;meritâ&#x20AC;? selection and saw the new proposal as flawed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No one felt we could endorse it,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We felt it provided too much power to the executive branch.â&#x20AC;?

Republican Gov. Sam Brownback has called the current system undemocratic, and fellow GOP conservatives have been the strongest supporters for change following Supreme Court rulings on abortion and education funding. Critics contend the current process favors well-connected, centrist or liberal attorneys and keeps voters from being heard.

Still, change is coming for the Court of Appeals, because lawmakers passed and Brownback signed a bill changing the law governing the selection of its judges. Starting in July, the governor will appoint and the Senate will confirm the judges, with no role for the nominating commission.

Thus, Kansas soon will have separate ways of picking Supreme Court justices and Court of Appeals judges.

STATE BOARD OF ED

Member defends use of racial slur

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Black leaders in Kansas sharply criticized a State Board of Education member Tuesday over comments he made last month when he made repeated reference to the N-word while talking about new history and social studies standards.

During a discussion about the new standards, which the board voted to approve, board member Steve Roberts, an Overland Park Republican, commented that he thought the standards were too â&#x20AC;&#x153;politically correctâ&#x20AC;? in some areas, especially regarding use of the racially derogatory word.

Kansas State Board of Education member Carolyn Campbell, D-Topeka, says she was offended by comments made in April by fellow board member Steve Roberts about the use of a racially derogatory word.

He first said he was under the impression that the city of New York had officially â&#x20AC;&#x153;outlawedâ&#x20AC;? the word, although in fact the city had only passed a nonbinding resolution in 2007 calling for a moratorium on use of the word.

He then pointed to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letter from a Birmingham Jail,â&#x20AC;? which was written 50 years ago that day, April 16. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And as I call up the Letter from a Birmingham Jail,â&#x20AC;? Roberts said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;that N-word â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and we all know what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m talking about â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it is in this docu-

ment twice. So, I guess I really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a question so much as an admonition that we have to push the frontiers of political correctness, and do whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;So, if I was to use it clinically,â&#x20AC;? Roberts continued, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would almost do a test to see what the effect on Twitter would be. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You know that Roberts guy said n----- in a school board meeting. And he said it as, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably the ugliest word in our vocabulary.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an utterly repugnant, absolutely horrific word that we should rise above. But I did get it out there, and I appreciate the opportunity to do that.

I wish you luck, sir.â&#x20AC;?

His comments were directed at the Rev. Ben Scott, past president of the Topeka chapter of the NAACP and a member of the committee that wrote the new standards.

Scott said nothing at the time in response to Roberts. But he returned to the board Tuesday to say he was both offended and confused by Robertsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; comments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the connection in those statements relative to my comments to this board,â&#x20AC;? Scott said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At a time when racial animosity is on the rise, as public officials and leaders we should be trying to calm the waters instead of fueling the fire.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the remarks by this particular board member were an attempt to besmirch the reputation or legacy of Dr. King, they are unacceptable and should be recanted,â&#x20AC;? Scott said.

Board member Carolyn Campbell, a Topeka Democrat whose district includes Lawrence, said she received numerous phone calls after the meeting from people who had viewed a recording of the meeting on the State Department of Education website. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No one has been able to understand why he (Scott) had to endure the monologue regarding the N-word, especially stating Reverend Dr. King used it twice in his Letter from a Birmingham Jail,â&#x20AC;? Campbell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was offensive to me due to the insensitive way it was implied that Reverend Dr. King used this word as part of his vocabulary on a regular basis.â&#x20AC;?

In the famous letter, King wrote to other clergy members who were critical of his civil rights activism to explain why he believed it was right and necessary, and he did use the word twice as illustrations of the kind of hatred and humiliation blacks were subjected to.

Afterward, Roberts defended his remarks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One reason I brought it up was because it actually was the 50th anniversary of Dr. Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Letter from a Birmingham Jail,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; which is one of the greatest documents Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever read, and he used it twice,â&#x20AC;? Roberts said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I love getting out of the box, and I love developing a reputation for being willing to be politically incorrect. And I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty evident there are some people who feel I was very politically incorrect.â&#x20AC;?

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A surprising new report questions public health efforts to get Americans to sharply cut back on salt, saying itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not clear whether eating super-low levels is worth the struggle.

Make no mistake: Most Americans eat way too much salt, not just from salt shakers but because of sodium hidden inside processed foods and restaurant meals. Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report stresses that, overall, the nation needs to ease back on the sodium for better heart health.

But thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no good evidence that eating very low levels â&#x20AC;&#x201D; below the 2,300 milligrams a day that the government recommends for most people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; offers benefits even though national guidelines urge that certain high-risk patients do just that, the Institute of Medicine concluded.

Also, there are some hints, albeit from studies with serious flaws, that eating the lowest levels might actually harm certain people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; those who are being aggressively treated for serious heart failure, the report added.

The prestigious group, which advises the government about health, urged more and better research to settle the best target range. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not saying we shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be lowering excessive salt intake,â&#x20AC;? said Dr. Brian Strom of the University of Pennsylvania, who led the IOM committee. But below 2,300 mg a day, â&#x20AC;&#x153;there is simply a lack of data that shows it is beneficial.â&#x20AC;?

The average American consumes more than 3,400 mg of sodium a day, equivalent to 1.5 teaspoons. Current U.S. dietary guidelines say most

AN ADVISORY ON THE LOCATION OF SALT SHAKERS SITS IN PLACE of a salt shaker at a Boston Market restaurant on Tuesday in Alexandria, Va. Boston Market has removed the salt shakers from the tables in its restaurants nationwide, but a new report says that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no good evidence that very low levels of salt offer health benefits. people should limit that to 2,300 mg a day, while certain people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; those older than 50, AfricanAmericans, and people with high blood pressure, diabetes or chronic kidney disease â&#x20AC;&#x201D; should aim for just 1,500 mg.

Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report sparked an immediate outcry from health organizations that have long battled to lower the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s salt consumption.

The American Heart Association said it stood by its own recommendations, stricter than the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, that everyone eat no more than 1,500 mg of sodium a day.

Studies make clear that eating less sodium helps lower blood pressure, and lower blood pressure in turn leads to less heart disease, said heart association spokesman Dr. Elliott Antman, a cardiologist at Bostonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brigham and Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sticking where we have the most solid evidence,â&#x20AC;? Antman said.

What to study is key to the debate: The IOM committee was asked to examine whether eating less salt directly affects longer-term outcomes

such as heart attacks and death. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harder to prove, especially because the panel stressed many of the studies it reviewed had quality problems.

Among those problems, Antman said, was including some patients too sick for diet to matter.

Debating how little salt is too little is a moot point, added nutritionist Bonnie Liebman of the Center for Science in the Public Interest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The average American is still in the red zone, the danger zone,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The salt industry, in contrast, has long opposed the push for sharp sodium reductions and welcomed the report. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is no scientific justification for population-wide sodium reduction to such low levels, and the recognition by the IOM experts that such low levels may cause harm may help steer overzealous organizations away from reckless recommendations,â&#x20AC;? said Morton Satin of the Salt Institute.

Some salt is necessary for good health, although itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not clear exactly how much.

Lax IRS management blamed for tea party targeting

By Henry C. Jackson and Stephen Ohlemacher Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Ineffective management at the Internal Revenue Service allowed agents to improperly target tea party groups for extra scrutiny when they applied for tax exempt status, an internal Treasury Department report said Tuesday.

Lax managers allowed the practice to go on for

more than 18 months, said the report from the Treasury inspector general for tax administration.

The IRS on Friday apologized for targeting tea party and other conservative groups. The report said that when asked by investigators, IRS supervisors said the criteria they used to decide which groups they examined were not influenced by people or organizations outside the IRS.

The agency started targeting groups with “Tea Party,” ‘‘Patriots” or “9/12 Project” in their applications in March 2010. The criteria later evolved to include groups that promoted the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The practice ended in May 2012, according to a timeline in the report.

In some cases, the IRS acknowledged, agents inappropriately asked for lists of donors. The

agency blamed low-level employees in a Cincinnati, Ohio, office, saying no high-level officials were aware.

An IRS unit in Cincinnati that decided whether groups qualified for tax-exempt status developed their inappropriate standards partly because their managers provided insufficient oversight, the report said.

IRS agents were trying to determine whether the

political activities of such groups disqualified them for tax-exempt status.

These groups were claiming tax-exempt status as organizations promoting social welfare. Unlike other charitable groups, they can engage in political activity. But politics cannot be their primary mission.

It is up to the IRS to make the determination.

But by using improper criteria, the IRS targeted

some groups, even though there were no indications that they engaged in significant political activities, the report said. Other non-tea party groups that had significant political activities were not screened, the report said.

“The criteria developed by the Determinations Unit gives the appearance that the IRS is not impartial in conducting its mission,” the report said.

Convicted abortion Holder claims no role in AP phone subpoena doctor gets life in prison

By Pete Yost

By Maryclaire Dale Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — A Philadelphia abortion doctor convicted of killing three babies born alive at his rogue clinic dodged a possible death sentence Tuesday in a hasty post-verdict deal with prosecutors.

Dr. Kermit Gosnell, 72, waived his right to appeal in exchange for a sentence of life without parole.

Gosnell was convicted Monday of first-degree murder in a case that became a flashpoint in the nation’s abortion debate.

Former clinic employees testified that Gosnell routinely performed illegal abortions past Pennsylvania’s 24-week limit, that he delivered babies who were still moving, whimpering or breathing, and that he and his assistants dispatched the newborns by “snipping” their spines, as he referred to it.

Prosecutors had been seeking the death penalty because Gosnell killed more than one person and his victims were especially vulnerable given their age. But Gosnell’s own advanced age had made it unlikely he would ever be executed before his appeals ran out.

Gosnell’s lawyer, Jack McMahon, said his client accepts the verdict and isn’t sorry he went to trial.

He said Gosnell gave up

a somewhat better deal early on but wanted to air the issues in court and is satisfied that he did so.

“He wanted this case aired out in a courtroom and it got aired out in a courtroom in a fair way.

And now he’s accepting what will happen. He’s Gosnell an intelligent guy,” said McMahon, who said Gosnell would now plead to federal drug charges that are still pending.

The sentencing deal, reached after hours of terse negotiations, spares Gosnell’s family the task of pleading for his life in court, McMahon said.

Gosnell has six children, the youngest of them a teenager born to his third wife, who has also pleaded guilty in the case.

“He’s a proud man. To bring his young family into court was something he did not want to do,” McMahon said.

Gosnell was instead sentenced Tuesday to two life sentences for two of the infant deaths. He faces a mandatory third life term Wednesday in the third death, when he will also be formally sentenced in the overdose death of a patient and hundreds of lesser charges.

WASHINGTON — Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday defended the Justice Department’s secret examination of Associated Press phone records though he declared he had played no role in it, saying it was justified as part of an investigation into a grave national security leak.

The government’s wide-ranging information gathering from the news cooperative has created a bipartisan political headache for President Barack Obama, with prominent Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill expressing outrage, along with press freedom groups.

The government obtained the records from April and May of 2012 for more than 20 separate telephone lines assigned to AP and its journalists, including main offices. AP’s top executive called the action a massive and unprecedented intrusion into how news organizations do their work.

Federal officials have said investigators are trying to hunt down the sources of information for a May 7, 2012, AP story that disclosed details of a

CIA operation in Yemen to stop an airliner bomb plot around the anniversary of the killing of Osama bin Laden. The probe is being run out of the U.S. Attorney’s office in the District of Columbia.

Asked about it at a news conference on a separate topic, Holder said he removed himself from the leaked-information probe because he himself had

been interviewed by FBI agents as part of the investigation. He said he wanted to ensure that the probe was independently run and to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest. It was the Justice Department’s No. 2 official, Deputy Attorney General James Cole, who made the decision to seek news media phone records, the department

said.

“This was a very serious leak, a very grave leak” that “put the American people at risk,” Holder said. He called it one of the two or three most serious such episodes he had seen since he became a prosecutor in 1976 but did not say specifically how the disclosure of information about the plot had endangered Americans.

Stock market rises into record territory again

By Steve Rothwell Associated Press

NEW YORK — The stock market marched back into record territory Tuesday as investors seized on the latest encouraging news about the economy. This time, it was a report on the health of small businesses.

Small business owners were slightly more optimistic in April, according to a survey released by the National Federation of Independent Business before the stock market opened. That helped push the Russell 2000, an index of small-company stocks, up 1.3 percent, ahead of other major indexes.

“Small businesses are in many ways the backbone of the economy ... to see that index move up was a positive surprise,” said Quincy Krosby, market strategist for Prudential Financial. “Overall, the market wants to move higher, and it’s hard to fight that.”

The Russell index is 16.1 percent higher since the start of the year and is up more than the Standard & Poor’s 500 index, which includes larger, global companies. Small stocks are doing well partly because they are more focused on the U.S., which is recovering, and don’t get as much revenue from recession-plagued Europe as larger companies do.

The advance in smallcompany stocks is another sign of how optimistic investors have become.

Smaller stocks are more risky than large ones, but also offer investors the prospect of greater returns in a rising market.

The market rose from the opening of trading and climbed steadily throughout the day. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 123.57 points, or 0.8 percent, to 15,215.25. The S&P 500 index rose 16.57 points, or 1 percent, to 1,650.34. Both closed at all-time highs after stalling on Monday.

NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD CHAIRWOMAN DEBORAH HERSMAN SPEAKS during a news conference in this February file photo. A safety board recommended on Tuesday that states reduce their threshold for drunken driving from the current .08 blood alcohol content to .05.

“Our goal is to get to zero deaths because each alcohol-impaired death is preventable,” NTSB Chairman Deborah Hersman said. “Alcohol-impaired deaths are not accidents; they are crimes.

They can and should be prevented. The tools exist. What is needed is the will.”

An alcohol concentration threshold of .05 is likely to meet strong resistance from states, said Jon-

athan Adkins, an official with the Governors Highway Safety Association, which represents state highway safety offices.

“It was very difficult to get .08 in most states, so lowering it again won’t be popular,” Adkins said.

“The focus in the states is on high (blood alcohol content) offenders as well as repeat offenders. We expect industry will also be very vocal about keeping the limit at .08.”

Jolie admired for bravery in mastectomy revelation

By Jocelyn Noveck Associated Press

NEW YORK — “I hope that other women can benefit from my experience,” Angelina Jolie wrote in a powerful op-ed article Tuesday, explaining her decision to go public with having her breasts removed to avoid cancer.

But amid the accolades for the film star’s courageous revelation, doctors and genetic counselors were careful to note that her medical situation — an inherited genetic mutation putting her at

high risk of breast and ovarian cancer — was very specific, and that her course of ac- Jolie tion made sense for only a small category of women.

Still, they hailed her bravery and said that she would surely help increase awareness — and thus, perhaps, help save some lives.

“Having this conversation empowers us all,”

said Rebecca Nagy, a genetic counselor who works frequently with women who test positive for a defective version of the BRCA1 gene, as Jolie did. “It’s wonderful what she’s done.”

In a stunning op-ed piece in the New York Times, Jolie, 37, began by speaking of her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand, who died of cancer at 56, before she was able to meet most of her grandchildren.

The actress revealed that beginning in February, she underwent three

surgeries — which she succeeded in keeping secret from the public — in which her breasts were removed and later replaced by implants.

“I wanted to write this to tell other women that the decision to have a mastectomy was not easy. But it is one I am very happy that I made,” Jolie wrote.

“My chances of developing breast cancer have dropped from 87 percent to under 5 percent. I can tell my children that they don’t need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer.”

What, exactly, was the IRS thinking?

EDITORIALS

Court case There’s no need for city officials to reopen discussion of lighting tennis courts near Lawrence High School.

L

ike volleys back and forth across the net, the issue of lighted tennis courts is being served up again for the Lawrence City Commission.

The Lawrence Tennis Association is urging commissioners to rethink a previous decision and consider lighting eight courts at the tennis center near Lawrence High School. It’ll be on the agenda at a future meeting.

Previously, the commission had agreed with neighbors not to have lights on those courts and, instead, committed to spend $640,000 on eight new lighted courts to be located at the Rock Chalk Park.

As background, renovations at Lawrence High caused the city to lose eight lighted tennis courts several years ago.

The school rebuilt the courts in a new location, and the city was going to provide the lights, but when time came to add them, neighbors voiced concerns about light from the courts spilling onto their property and the city agreed with them.

Neighborhood issues also derailed an earlier hoped-for compromise to put lights on courts at Free State High School.

Now, the Rock Chalk Park appears to offer a solution that will not involve any neighborhood controversy. Noise and lights will not cause disturbances, and restrooms, parking and other facilities will be available without provoking contention between those who want peace and quiet and tennis buffs who want to play after work and after dark — up to 350 days a year, it has been estimated.

It’s not as if there are no other lighted courts available. Holcom, Lyons and Veterans parks all provide lighted playing surfaces, and still others available to Lawrence residents exist at Kansas University and elsewhere in the community.

For the most part, it seems as if tennis players are accommodated, although league competitions are not. The new facilities at Rock Chalk should adequately address those needs.

The homeowners and residents around Lawrence High School are entitled to the consideration they’re seeking.

The issue appeared to have been settled earlier and there’s no need to keep revisiting this matter.

Well, this is a fine mess.

After years of moaning about various “conspiracies” against them, conservative activists finally have a real (i.e., not manufactured by Fox or inflated by Limbaugh) piece of evidence to take before the court of public opinion.

Meaning, of course, last week’s revelation that the Internal Revenue Service has been giving extra scrutiny to groups with the words “tea party” or “patriot” in their names. Extra scrutiny from the IRS is about as welcome as extra scrutiny from the proctologist, so one can hardly blame conservative groups for complaining, as

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

they’ve done since last year.

Unfortunately, those complaints got no traction until Friday, when the IRS admitted the practice. Lois Lerner, director of the IRS division in charge of tax exemption, was speaking at an American Bar Association conference in response to a question about whether the conservative groups had been singled out. She admitted they were.

These groups reportedly amounted to about a quarter of the 300 organizations flagged for review between 2010 and 2012, but according to Lerner, there was no political intent. Rather, she says, the words became a shortcut used by employees to help them sort through the explosion of groups seek-

ing tax exemption under the Internal Revenue Code. The relevant Code section, 501 (c) (4), requires that any exempt group be working to promote “social welfare” and that political action not constitute its “primary activity.” The groups the IRS flagged were not necessarily denied exemption, but were subjected to extensive questioning and required to produce membership lists and donor information.

Tuesday, the Justice Department launched an investigation. Two congressional committees are also looking into the matter. Every taxpayer not employed by the Obama administration should welcome the news.

Under the most charitable interpretation of the facts, this unit of the IRS used godawful judgment. Under the least charitable, it engaged in ideological harassment inimical to and violative of, the First Amendment.

Taxpayers deserve to

know which it is. And how long it has been going on.

And whether groups of other ideological stripes have been similarly targeted. And how the malfeasance — assuming it is malfeasance — will be punished. And what safeguards will be put into place to ensure this sort of thing never happens again.

Frankly, Congress needs to address the regulations governing which groups get tax exemption in the first place.

The existing standard noted above is porous enough that groups most people would define as political (Crossroads GPS, Priorities USA) are somehow nevertheless declared tax exempt, free to flood campaigns with unlimited money from sources they are not required to disclose.

One could argue, then, that the tea party and patriot groups singled out by the IRS are guilty mainly of playing the same old cynical shell game that has become all too

Benghazi, IRS: Son of Watergate?

In his defense of President Obama, Press Secretary Jay Carney is beginning to sound a lot like Ronald Zeigler, Richard Nixon’s spokesman. Carney only has to use the word “inoperative,” as Ziegler did when incriminating evidence surfaced that proved his previous statements untrue.

Following what appears to be a cover-up in the Benghazi attack, the Washington Post has obtained documents from an audit conducted by the IRS’s inspector general that indicate the agency targeted for special scrutiny conservative groups with “tea party” and “patriot” in their names, as well as “nonprofit groups that criticized the government and sought to educate Americans about the U.S. Constitution.”

IRS official Lois Lerner described the targeting efforts as “absolutely inappropriate,” but said IRS actions were not driven by partisanship. How, then, would she explain why no groups with “progressive” in their titles were similarly targeted? Carney labeled Lerner an “appointee from the previous administration.” In other words: Bush’s mistake, not Obama’s.

The Post’s editorial board writes, “A bedrock principle of U.S. democracy is that the coercive powers of government are never used for partisan purpose.” The board called for a full accounting. I doubt we’ll get it. Take Benghazi.

ABC News first reported that the now famous Benghazi “talking points” used by U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on five Sunday morning news shows were revised 12 times, deleting references to “the al-Qaida-affiliated group Ansar al-Sharia (and) CIA warnings about terrorist threats in Benghazi in the months preceding the attack.”

Carney said Ambassador Rice’s initial claim — that the attack grew out of protests over a video that insulted Islam — was based on what was known to U.S. intelligence at the time. But as last week’s testimony by three

Journalists should stop protecting President Obama and Hillary Clinton and do their jobs, like Sharyl Attkisson. Congressional Republicans should press for all the facts. That’s their job.”

whistleblowers before the House Oversight Committee revealed, much more was known at the time.

Contributing to cover-up suspicions is the administration’s continued stonewalling when asked to provide information on Benghazi.

CNN sources acknowledge that “An email discussion about talking points the Obama administration used to describe the deadly attack on the U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, show the White House and State Department were more involve d than they first said...” The American people deserve the full story.

The latest, but probably not the last shocker, is a report in The Daily Caller about CBS News Correspondent Sharyl Attkisson, who has “steadily covered the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi terrorist attack in Libya,” reportedly frustrating CBS News executives who claim her unrelenting coverage is “bordering on advocacy” on the issue. Now, according to Politico, Attkisson can’t get some of her stories about Benghazi on the air. Oh, did I fail to mention that CBS News President David Rhodes is the brother

of Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes? Coincidental? Attkisson is reportedly in talks to leave the network. Is it because she chooses to behave like a real journalist instead of a cheerleader for Obama?

On Friday, Carney held a “secret briefing” on Benghazi for a select number of White House reporters, raising the ire of reporters not in the room. Is this what the Obama administration calls transparency?

Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., has asked Speaker John Boehner to name a select committee to investigate the Benghazi attack with full subpoena powers that could place witnesses under oath. Boehner should. Meanwhile, House Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Charles Boustany (R-LA) has demanded the IRS turn over by Wednesday all communications containing the words “conservative,” “patriot” or “tea party.”

And the IRS should.

Democrats now accuse Republicans of partisanship, claiming their motive is to damage Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential prospects.

If she has nothing to hide, transparency should enhance, not harm, her chances.

We’ve learned more about Benghazi since her appearance before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in January and she should be asked to account for it.

In 1972, Republican partisans initially accused Democrats of wanting to destroy President Nixon, but most were forced to acknowledge his culpability in Watergate once the facts became known. One of the Articles of Impeachment of Nixon concerned his misuse of the IRS to undermine political enemies.

Journalists should stop protecting President Obama and Hillary Clinton and do their jobs, like Sharyl Attkisson. Congressional Republicans should press for all the facts. That’s their job.

familiar in recent years. But until that game is outlawed, the rules are what the rules are and they must apply evenly, regardless of ideological faith.

Some observers will find the controversial tea party and patriot groups less than sympathetic illustrations of that point. But every group is controversial to somebody.

And only by vigilance toward everyone’s rights do we protect anyone’s rights.

It’s too easy to imagine some future IRS office using different shortcut words (“pro-choice,” let’s say or “Islamic”) to sort through applications for tax exemption. That possibility ought to temper any temptation among tea party foes to be cavalier toward this abridgement of conservatives’ rights.

Better they should be thankful nothing like this has happened to them.

Yet. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

PUBLIC FORUM

Can’t ignore To the editor: A Lawrence Journal-World story on Saturday reported a Scripps Institute of Oceanography atmospheric measurement showing that CO2 levels have surpassed 400 parts per million for the first time in 2 million years. Those levels averaged around 250 ppm until the industrial age. We now understand the long-term effects of CO2 and other greenhouse gases better than we did in 1890.

As a member of Citizens Climate Lobby, we seek reasonable people who believe that the rights of posterity are more important than the needs of the present. While some elected officials bury their heads in the sand, extreme weather will become more extreme. We propose our lawmakers pass revenueneutral carbon fee and dividend legislation. Tax carbon at the source, meaning at the gas or oil well, coal mine, ethanol plant, etc., and return those collected tax funds equitably to the citizens as an annual check via the U.S. Treasury to help absorb citizens’ increased energy costs.

Why does the carbon industry get government rebates and a free pass to produce a product that pollutes our planet and creates catastrophic weather conditions? Can moderate people afford to ignore what we are allowing to be done to our children and grandchildren’s planet? We all need to get active and talk to our representatives about this.

Tony Schmidt, Lawrence

KANSAS BASKETBALL

AND ONE

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Wiggins, Wilt and Danny linked Back when Elvis Presley released “Heartbreak Hotel,” Monte Johnson was in the same class as Wilt Chamberlain. The same Kansas University freshman class, that is, not the same class as a basketball player. Twentynine years after that, Johnson was KU’s athletic director when Danny Manning decided to come to Kansas to play basketball and earn a degree. Twenty-nine years after that, Johnson reacted Tuesday the same way most Lawrence residents did at the news that the nation’s best high school basketball player will have ‘KANSAS’ spread across his chest throughout next winter. He broke out into a huge smile that stayed with him all day.

Sure, Rivals had Josh Selby ranked No. 1 a few years ago, but Selby just happened to be the last No. 1 in a year there wasn’t a clear-cut top recruit. There were nearly as many No. 1-ranked prospects as there were recruiting services. This is different. The moment Wiggins reclassified from a Class of 2014 recruit to 2013 he shot to the top of a very talented class. He’s been called the best high school recruit since, take your pick: Kevin Durant, Greg Oden, LeBron James.

Wilt, Danny and Wiggins can’t be compared as basketball players because of their different styles and positions and because nobody can be compared to Wilt. But Johnson did point to traits shared by Chamberlain and Manning and to early signs that Wiggins might have them as well: class and humility.

“Wilt and Danny, really good people who came from wonderful families,” Johnson said.

Wiggins didn’t invite ESPN in for a news conference choreographed by the network, replete with baseball caps from all four schools facing the TV cameras. Great sign.

“It tells me a lot about him,” Johnson said. “He wasn’t doing it for the glory or for the attention the way most of them do it.”

Instead, he let a reporter who had covered him in Please see KEEGAN, page 3B

The Canadian star, a top prospect, averaged 23.4 points and 11.2 rebounds per game this season.

Top recruit Andrew Wiggins joins loaded KU class

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Down to four finalists the past many weeks, Huntington (W. Va.) Prep basketball phenom Andrew Wiggins had a difficult time distinguishing and deciding between Kansas University, Florida State, North Carolina and Kentucky.

Ultimately ....

“I just followed my heart.

Kansas had my heart so that’s where I wanted to go,” Wiggins, a 6-foot-8, 215-pound small forward said Tuesday morning after signing a letterof-intent with KU. “I’m looking forward to getting there and just doing my thing,” added Wiggins, Rivals. com’s No. 1-rated prospect, who is expected to be taken first in the 2014 NBA Draft.

Suffice it to say hordes of KU fans — including those who logged onto the Twitter account of Huntington Herald-Dispatch sports writer Grant Traylor shortly after 11 a.m., Central time, to learn of Wiggins’ decision (Traylor was the only media member invited to a private signing ceremony) — will be counting the days until the start of the 2013-14 season to watch Wiggins “do his thing.”

In his case, that’s unleash his repertoire of spin moves and highlight-reel dunks at the shooting guard and small forward positions, interchangeable in the KU offense.

“I’ve got a weight lifted off my shoulders. I can relax now,” said Wiggins, who will be playing one year of college ball just up the road from his

brother, Nick, a senior-to-be at Wichita State.

“That’s another positive in going there. We talked about all the possibilities. My brother is right there with me.

Wichita State is like an hourand-a-half travel away, so I can be close to my brother.

I just look forward to having fun (at KU) and competing,” he added.

Wiggins — the last ranked player in the Class of 2013 to announce his college choice — didn’t keep anybody waiting on Tuesday morning.

His press conference, which was scheduled for 11:15 a.m., started at 11:09. That’s when Traylor’s tweet came out, KU coach Bill Self and lead Wiggins recruiter Kurtis Townsend not immediately noticing that they’d won the biggest recruiting battle of their careers.

Recruiting analyst Shay Wildeboor of Rivals.com called Townsend with the news.

“Shay asked Kurt, has he heard? We said, ‘No, he hasn’t done it yet,’” Self said. “Shay said, ‘He just did it. He’s coming to Kansas.’ It’s how we found out. Everybody started running in the office saying it was out everywhere he signed. Then my phone started blowing up. I probably got 150 texts in 10 minutes.

“There wasn’t jubilation,” Self added. “It was kind of a surreal feeling. I was so happy. It was a humble happiness.

I was so proud we were able to land Andrew. There were some high fives, but not that much celebration. There will be a time we do celebrate.

Hopefully that’s after we win a lot of games next year,” Self added.

Self admitted he went to bed on Monday night apprehensive about Tuesday’s announcement.

“I didn’t think it was great,” he said of KU’s chances. “I kept texting him. I couldn’t get him to respond. In the morning I text him and said, ‘Hey man, have a great day today.’

He texted back, ‘Thank you.’

That’s been my limited contact with him in recent days because he shut it all down and wanted to think about everything. We had no communication with the family until after he signed the papers.”

CLASS 6A REGIONAL SOCCER

FSHS tops ONW, 1-0, in playoff opener

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo

FREE STATE FORWARD MADDIE DIEKER (7) CELEBRATES with forward Tori Karlin after Dieker’s second-half goal against Olathe Northwest, Tuesday at FSHS.

When the midfielders for Free State High’s girls soccer team get a chance to make a play on offense, coach Kelly Barah doesn’t want it to be scripted and predictable.

It’s the job of senior Chelsea Casady and juniors Hadyn Hutchison and Maddie Dieker to read a play and improvise to create the best possible chance.

In the 53rd minute of the Firebirds’ Class 6A regional playoff opener against Olathe Northwest Tuesday night, Casady and Dieker saw their chance to ad-lib.

Casady dribbled ahead near midfield, drawing the Ravens’ attention as Dieker spun away and made a run through the defenders. With perfect timing, Casady sent a pass to Dieker, who scored the only goal in a 1-0 FSHS home victory.

The midfielders had spent a lot of practice time making such runs, and Casady’s chip pass over the top wasn’t exactly perfect, but the Firebirds (10-6) weren’t complaining after it kept their postseason alive.

“It was out of my reach, but I extended and just tapped it right past the goalie,” Dieker said.

Casady said it’s easy for her and Hutchison to play off of Dieker, because of her expert touch.

“I think that was a perfect example,” Casady said.

“When we do get our centermids up and attacking, we can score, and it obviously makes a difference.”

FSHS only came up with 11 shots against ONW (8-8) and its sophomore goalkeeper Ashley Heller (four saves).

With few offensive chances appearing, the Firebirds looked to be in trouble in the first half, because the Ravens controlled possession.

However, every time ONW seemed to have a step,

an angle or a legitimate crack at scoring, someone from Free State would step up and make a play.

Junior Olivia Hodison denied shots and passes.

Senior Rylee Fuerst came out of nowhere to swipe the ball from opponents. Senior Madeline Caywood cut off paths toward the goal. And junior Allix Ice slowed attacks at times and stymied runs completely on occasion.

It all led to a ninth shutout of the season for the Firebirds and junior goalkeeper Annie Hierl (six saves).

NOTEBOOK

Coach: Wiggins’ ability ‘off the charts’

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Huntington (W. Va.) Prep coach Rob Fulford — who has worked with Canadian sensation Andrew Wiggins the past two seasons — laughed when asked when he learned Wiggins had selected Kansas University over Kentucky, Florida State and North Carolina.

“When he announced it,” Fulford said of a Tuesday morning ceremony in which the 6-8, 215-pounder signed a letter-of-intent with Bill Self’s Jayhawks.

“It was kind of fun being part of that. Myself, our staff and his teammates, we didn’t know. I never asked him where he was going.”

Fulford did ask the softspoken Wiggins why he chose KU over the others.

“I said, ‘Andrew, I know you are not going to talk to anybody, so they (reporters) are going to call me. I need to know why,’” Fulford said. “He was very sincere. He said, ‘I felt it in my heart and it was a long process.’

“He did his homework, too, due diligence trying to factor everything involved. It was a situation he felt it was the best place for him,” Fulford added.

Of Wiggins the person, Fulford said: “Unbelievable kid. I texted coach Self and told him, ‘Congratulations, you are not only getting a great basketball player, but even better person.’ It’s been an honor to have him here.

He’s one of the most respectful kids you’ll ever meet. He gets a bad rap for not wanting to handle media, but I think the part of the media he didn’t like to deal with is over. He didn’t like to talk about recruiting, comparing colleges. Talking basketball, he’s fine.”

As far as Wiggins the player, the coach said: “He has off the charts ability. It’s unfair to compare anyone to (Michael) Jordan or LeBron (James). I hope people don’t do that and set him up. He has unbelievable potential. His future is very bright. If he stays healthy, he will have a great NBA career. But comparisons are unfair at this point.

“He showed up at Huntington Prep as an elite athlete; he’s leaving an

elite basketball player.

He’s gotten so much better in the couple years he’s been here. He has room to improve certain things. It will be fun to sit back and watch how he develops at Kansas and into the future,” Fulford noted.

O Papa speaks: Wiggins’ dad, Mitchell, who played in the NBA, explained the decision-making process to the Louisville CourierJournal: “We looked at all the offense, the players coming in. He said, ‘Dad I love Florida State. I love Kentucky, North Carolina, the history of Michael Jordan.’ I said, ‘Andrew, exhale, take your time.’

At the end of the day, he said, ‘OK, dad, I’m going to Kansas.’ It’s a great choice.

I think coach (Bill) Self is kind of happy,” Mitchell Wiggins said.

Some NBA players have helped Wiggins, who is expected to be taken No. 1 in the 2014 NBA Draft.

ESPN says he’d be No. 1 if he could enter this June’s draft.

“LeBron (James) took him under his wing for the last two years,” Mitchell Wiggins told the CourierJournal. “Kevin Durant has given him a lot of ad-

Of Wiggins’ family, KU coach Self said: “Andrew’s father, Mitchell, played at Florida State and had a very good NBA career.

His mother, Marita, ran track at Florida State and went on to be a two-time Olympian and would have been a three-time Olympian if it wasn’t for the boycott (1980). It’s a great athletic family and certainly I look forward to spending more time with them and getting to know them better. I’m so thrilled they put their trust in us and the belief he was going to mature as a man and a player.”

O Busy summer outside of Lawrence: Mike DeCourcy of The Sporting News points out that Wiggins could compete this summer for his native Canada in the Under-19 World championships and also the FIBA Americas senior national championship.

Wiggins played for the Canadian team that won

bronze at last summer’s Americas qualifying tournament for the Under 19 worlds. The U19 Worlds will be contested June 27July 7 in Prague.

The qualifying tournament for the FIBA World Cup will be Aug. 30-Sept.

“He has some desires, which I totally support 100 percent, of playing on the Canadian 19 and under team,” Self said. “Whatever he wants to do I’m cool with, as long as it’s a situation where he’s getting better. One of the advantages of being here (in summer) is for camaraderie and chemistry with teammates. If he has a chance to do some things from a worldwide competition standpoint, we’ll support that 100 percent.

To have the opportunity to play for one or, even better, both teams I think would be a remarkable experience for him.”

O Great class: KU has a recruiting class of No. 1-ranked Wiggins, plus No. 12 Wayne Selden,

were great schools. I couldn’t go wrong with any one of them.”

Of KU, he added: “I’ve always liked Kansas and I like their style of play.”

Wiggins, who averaged 23.4 points and 11.2 rebounds last season for 30-3 Huntington Prep, likely won’t be in Lawrence this summer. He said he plans on returning to his native Canada to be with family and friends and likely play for Canada’s Under-19 national team.

Self said that’s fine with him, just as long as he’s in

a spot where he’s “getting better.”

Self said there’s plenty of time to work out details. Tuesday was a day of celebrating the signing of a player who reclassified from the Class of 2014 to ‘13 back in October.

“I thought it was the longest long shot,” Self said, “at least when we first got involved and everything. The more we hung around, the more we felt he liked us. There was a little bit of a connection. Kurtis

You make your own breaks in life. Johnson made his first big one by scoring 27 points for Wyandotte High in a home game against Shawnee Mission North. A relative of Phog Allen’s happened to be in the stands. He let the coach know what he saw and KU assistant coach Dick Harp contacted him to arrange a home visit.

“That was a little uncomfortable for me,” Johnson said. “We were so poor I thought they maybe they were coming to the house to figure out how to buy us some food.”

He received an academic scholarship and was told he could have a basketball scholarship if he could become a

starter for the freshman team by the end of the year. He did and even became a part-time starter for the varsity in later years.

Johnson hired Larry Brown, who in turn hired Ed Manning as an assistant, and Danny and the Miracles delivered a national title to Kansas in 1988.

Now Johnson will enjoy KU’s third great recruit along with 16,299 from a seat alongside his wife, Kay, at center-court, halfway up, backs on their chairs. A gift from the school for his service as athletic director? Not quite. It doesn’t work that way. He made some nice investments in businesses that deal in that bubblin’ crude that comes up through the ground, oil, that is, black gold, Kansas tea.

KU also has a transfer arriving in former Arkansas center Hunter Mickelson, who will practice but not play in games this season in accordance with transfer rules. KU has one scholarship left to give. Tarik Black, a 6-9 junior from the University of Memphis, who recently announced plans to transfer, is on KU’s campus on a recruiting visit. He has visited Duke, Georgetown and Oregon. Rivals.com rates KU’s class No. 2 in the country. Kentucky is No. 1.

O Twitter: Here are some comments on Twitter regarding Wiggins.

“Happy to have @22wiggins as a part of the family! Great addition,” tweeted KU signee Brannen Greene.

“Everybody welcome the newest member to the family @22wiggins ! Time to get to work,” tweeted Wayne Selden.

“BIG Welcome to the Family @22wiggins let’s get to work and win all next year #KUCMB #KUbball,” tweeted Joel Embiid.

“I just landed in Atlanta and found out Andrew Wiggins is coming to KU!!! What a great day!#RockChalk,” tweeted actor Rob Riggle.

“ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK - KU now legit top 10 team with Andrew Wiggins!” tweeted ESPNs Dick Vitale.

“Andrew Wiggins is another example that every school would take a player for one year if they could get him. Remember this is an NBA rule,” tweeted ESPN’s Andy Katz.

“Heading into the day, Kansas was likely second in Big 12. Now, Jayhawks are a Final Four contender. Wiggins effect,” tweeted Jeff Borzello of cbssports.com.

“Welcome to the fam @22wiggins. ... next season needs to hurry up and get here,” tweeted Landen Lucas.

(Townsend) played a huge role in making sure that occurred.”

Self said KU caught a break in Wiggins visiting for Senior Day. “He saw what this place was about,” Self said.

“The game wasn’t a huge high intensity game (vs.

Texas Tech) but he was able to see how the players are beloved here. After he left, I felt we were definitely in the game and had a shot.”

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Four-star linebacker commits to Jayhawks

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Talk about a solid encore.

A few hours after the Kansas University men’s basketball program landed Andrew Wiggins, the top player in the Class of 2013, the KU football program picked up an oral commitment from linebacker Kyron Watson, the No. 4-ranked outside linebacker in the country, according to ESPN.com.

Watson, a four-star prospect from East St.

Louis, Ill., becomes the second player in the Class of 2014 to pick KU coach C h a r lie Weis’ program.

He joins four-star, GardnerEdger t o n High running back Traevohn Watson Wrench, who committed to the Jayhawks in March.

The 6-foot-1, 210-pound Watson chose the Jay-

hawks over an impressive list of suitors that included Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Purdue and TCU. On Monday, Watson posted to his Twitter account words of excitement over his upcoming visit to Michigan. A day later, however, the visit to Michigan was off and his Twitter feed read simply, “I’m Officially Committed To The University Of Kansas. #JayHawk #RockChalk #DreamTeam.”

During the past several

months, Watson has made a couple of trips to Lawrence. He was in town for KU’s spring game in April, and, according to Tim Sullivan, of TheWolverine. com, had narrowed his finalists to KU and Michigan.

The plan was for Watson to take a visit to Michigan this weekend and then make a decision by the end of May, but that changed when Watson, who hails from the same school that produced current KU running back Tony Pierson, decided he was ready to

end the process and join the Jayhawks.

According to ESPN. com’s scouting report, the East St. Louis High senior could be an immediate impact player.

“Watson possesses the intelligence, athleticism and toughness needed to play early at the BCS level of competition,” the report reads.

Newell to narrow Hiawatha High defensive end Peyton Newell, one of the top players in Kansas and Rivals.com’s

11th best defensive end in the nation, announced via Twitter this week that he will narrow his list to five finalists on June 1.

According to the Rivals.com database, Newell, 6-3, 280, currently has 34 Div. I offers, most of them coming from BCS programs. Although the long list includes schools such as Arkansas, Clemson, Georgia, Michigan State, Missouri, Nebraska, Wisconsin and eight Big 12 schools, many analysts believe KU will crack the Top 5.

HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL

City teams battle-tested, confident

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Coaches like to talk about the importance of using the regular season to set their teams up for the best possible postseason scenario.

No baseball team took advantage of that formula better than Free State High (17-3), which plays host to a four-team Class 6A regional today. The top-seeded Firebirds take on No. 8 seed Kansas City, Kan., Wyandotte (0-9) at 4 p.m.

Though his Firebirds could play two home games today — a victory over Wyandotte places them in a 6 p.m. regional final against Olathe Northwest (12-8) or Topeka Washburn Rural (119) — coach Mike Hill said their 12-1 home mark this season guarantees them nothing.

“It certainly can help,” the 16-year coach said of playing on the FSHS home turf, “but we’ve hosted before and not advanced, so it’s certainly not the cureall.”

For Hill, the best part of being the home team is having the last at-bat, because he expects tight, one-run contests in the postseason. If it comes down to a decisive seventh inning, Joel Spain, Cooper Karlin, Jacob Caldwell, Lee McMahon, Sam Hearnen, Cameron Pope, Anthony Miele,

CLASS 6A REGIONALS Who: No. 8 Kansas City, Kan., Wyandotte (0-9) vs.

No. 1 Free State (17-3) When: 4 p.m.

Where: Free State High

Who: No. 6 Junction City (6-14) vs. No. 3 Lawrence High (13-7) When: 2 p.m.

Where: Eisenhower Middle School, Manhattan

Zach Bickling and Joe Dineen all know their team can deliver. Free State has even won three extra-inning games at home this season.

“We’ve certainly had some good fortune in that regard,” Hill said. “Hopefully that will pay dividends for us.”

If the Firebirds are able to win two today and move on to their first state tournament since 2010, Hill said they will have to produce runs in clutch situations.

“If you take an objective look at our team, when we’ve lost ballgames it’s been a lack of timely hitting,” he said.

Free State lost, 3-0, to Blue Valley Northwest, 2-1, against Blue Valley North and 2-1, in 10 innings, in its regular-season finale against Lawrence.

“We had opportunities,” Hill said, “in all of those games with guys on base.”

Junior pitcher Ryan Cantrell (2-1) will start against Wyandotte.

Lawrence heads to Manhattan As Lawrence High’s baseball team heads to Manhattan for its regional playoffs today — the No. 3 seed Lions (13-7) face No. 6 Junction City (6-14) at 2 p.m., at Eisenhower Middle School — coach Brad Stoll isn’t worried about his group’s unfamiliarity with the rest of the field.

Sure, LHS hasn’t played JCHS or No. 2 Manhattan (14-5) or No. 7 Topeka (5-15) this season. But the Lions have something else going for them. Stoll likes to call it Lawrence’s high school baseball RPI. “We feel like we’ve got a pretty good one, even though it doesn’t exist,” Stoll said, referring to his team’s success against a challenging schedule.

Taking on the likes of Kansas City Mo., Rockhurst or an Omaha, Neb., Creighton Prep, the coach said, is just part of his battle-tested philosophy.

“We play in the best conference in the state of Kansas,” Stoll added. “There’s some teams at the bottom

of the conference that aren’t as strong, but year in, year out in the Sunflower League, there’s seven, eight teams that are solid baseball teams, and that’s the chunk of your schedule.”

LHS even split its two games against rival Free State, whom Stoll considers the top team in 6A. The coach wants the Lions playing those types of competitive games so they will be ready for the last five games in May — two at regionals and three at the state tournament.

With a win against Junction City, the Lions would play either Manhattan or Topeka in a 6 p.m. regional championship game. Stoll is glad to have pitchers Brandon Bell (6-2), Adam Rea (3-2), CJ Stuever (2-1, who will start versus JCHS) and Shane Willoughby (20) at his disposal.

“We feel like, between those four guys, we can win two games in one day,” the coach said. “We would take those four against anybody.”

As well as the pitching and defense has performed, Stoll would like to see more out of his offensive lineup — Stuever, Kieran Severa, Willoughby, Drew Green, Michael Sinks, Jacob Seratte, Rea, Parker Kirkpatrick and Easton Barnes — to make things easier.

A regional title today would give LHS its third straight state-tournament berth.

FSHS softball wary of regional foe

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

As the regional playoff host with the gaudy regular-season record, it might be easy to assume Free State High’s 17-3 softball team is the heavy favorite to win two games today at home and move on to the Class 6A state tournament.

But FSHS coach Lee Ice doesn’t want his Firebirds overlooking anyone as they prepare for a 3 p.m. semifinal against No. 7 seed Junction City (4-16).

“The first part of the season is over,” Ice said.

“What we accomplished in going 17-3 really has nothing to do with what we accomplish from here on.”

And though No. 3 seed Olathe Northwest (14-6), which will face No. 6 Lawrence at 4:45, doesn’t have the win total of Free State, Ice said the Ravens could still be considered the favorite among the four teams to win a regional title.

“They have the experience in the postseason that we don’t have,” Ice said of an ONW program that has played in five straight state tournaments, winning the 6A championship in 2009 and 2011.

Because there is so much going on this time of year, with finals and graduation, Ice said it can be challenging to keep play-

REGIONAL AT FSHS Who: No. 7 Junction City (4-16) vs. No. 2 Free State (17-3) When: 3 p.m.

that won’t discourage his team.

“We know at the end of the day that we have to worry about us,” the coach said. “We can only control how we play.”

LHS (8-12) might not have much margin of error. Wood said it will take the Lions’ best 14 innings of softball this season to eliminate the Ravens and, possibly, rival Free State.

Seems like quite a challenge.

“We know we have it in us,” Wood added.

The Lions’ optimism has a lot to do with their health. When they played host to Olathe Northwest on April 16, and lost, 10-2, they were adjusting to the absence of injured second baseman and leadoff hitter Kenzie Garvin.

“We were searching for our identity, trying to figure out who we were,” Wood said.

Now Garvin is back to complement the rest of the LHS lineup — Marly Carmona, Morgan Byrn, Kristen Gile, Andrea Mills, Sami Buffalomeat, Katie Murrish, Jolona Shield and Trisha Bell — and pitcher Megan Sumonja.

The Lions were down 3-2 in the fifth inning the first time they played ONW before making a series of mistakes.

“We feel good about the fact that we’re coming at them full strength this time,” Wood said.

Jayhawks’ Hugo to transfer Freshman softball player Alex Hugo will transfer from Kansas University, KU coach Megan Smith announced Tuesday.

Hugo set a KU freshman record with 15 home runs and had a .428 batting average in 50 starts.

Veritas Christian School has named Gary Hammer athletic director.

Hammer will step down as Veritas’ boys basketball coach and will coach junior high girls basketball at the school.

Hammer was the Lawrence High varsity girls basketball coach from 1990-1996, winning a Kansas state championship and receiving the Coach of the Year award in 1992.

Hammer is retiring this month as an elementary school physical education teacher. He will begin his new role with Veritas this summer.

“I’ve enjoyed working with a great group of dedicated teachers and administrators over the years at Schwegler,” Hammer said.

“Watching the kids grow, develop in movement skills and social skills has made my job very rewarding. My physical education philosophy is this: You learn through movement.”

American League Rays 5, Red Sox 3 ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. — Tampa Bay’s Matt Moore pitched six strong innings and beat Boston to remain unbeaten and claim a share of the major-league lead in victories.

Moore (7-0) yielded a double to Dustin Pedroia and a three-run homer to David Ortiz in the first, then limited the struggling Red Sox to one hit over the next five innings.

The Rays overcame the early deficit with a fiverun fifth off John Lackey (1-4). Jose Molina and Matt Joyce each drove in two runs in the inning, helping Tampa Bay extend its winning streak to a season-high six games.

Boston has lost six of seven, including three straight.

Moore allowed three hits, walked two and struck out eight. The 23-year-old left-hander tied Washington’s Jordan Zimmerman for the major league lead in victories, became the first Tampa Bay starter to begin a season 7-0 and tied a club record by winning his eighth straight decision dating to September.

ANAHEIM, CALIF. (AP) — Albert Pujols, Howie Kendrick, Josh Hamilton and Mike Trout all homered off Jeremy Guthrie and the Los Angeles Angels handed the shell-shocked right-hander his first loss in a span of 19 starts with a 6-2 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday night.

The 2010 AL MVP, who batted .212 with 11 RBIs in his first 38 games with the Halos after signing a five-year, $125 million contract in December, drove Guthrie’s first pitch to him in the sixth inning far beyond the trees in center field with two out to increase the Angels’ to 4-2.

Trout ended the scoring in the seventh with his seventh homer, a towering drive over the double-decker bullpen in left field.

Jason Vargas (2-3) allowed two runs and five hits in seven-plus innings.

Guthrie (5-1) gave up five runs and 11 hits over seven innings.

t is FINALLY 80 degrees. And mid-May. And sunny.

And all those things mean summer is right around the corner â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as underlined by the fact that I bought a dozen or so herb starters this weekend for my container garden. Including three kinds of basil, aka summer in a leaf.

YES. But before the basil and those delightful tomatoes that go with it, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the thick of greens season. Both at the CSA and the Lawrence Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market.

In last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CSA bag, we received red lettuce, green onions, garlic chives, carrots, spinach and pesto. A very good, very green mix.

At this point in the local growing season, my hubby begins dreaming of anything that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t green (the carrots made him so happy), so we have to get a bit creative in how we use our veggies.

So, I made some green juice using some of our spinach.

Admittedly that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very creative when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about my wheelhouse. To that end, I also

The Miami Herald

Years ago a California winemaker came to Miami touting his latest creation â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a single, complex, expensive wine made by blending four or five well-known individual red grapes.

For fun, he set up a tasting in a restaurant and invited local wine and food writers and other journalists to try to duplicate his new wine from bottles of its constituent wines.

The winning blender: an out-of-town gossip writer who confessed she knew little about wine.

We wine geeks were humiliated, of course, and put it down to blind luck.

The real lesson that day, however, was how much a wine could be changed by the addition of just a percent or so of wine from a different grape.

The other lesson: It must be great fun to be a fiddling, tinkering winemaker.

Blending of wines, both red and white, has gone on for centuries, usually using one wine to compensate the weaknesses of another.

Adding, say, a muscular, tannic wine to a wimpy one to create a well-balanced whole. This trial-and-error method can be painstaking, involving tasting hundreds of lots of wine.

Other times, I suspect, they toss in everything but the kitchen sink just to see how it turns out.

Also, occasionally Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve

The hubby and head chef mixed four eggs with several handfuls of veggies, including CSA spinach, carrots, garlic chives and green onions and then added in storebought extras like red pepper. Then he topped it off with CSA pesto or salsa and some cheese.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d we get this week? Asparagus(!), spinach, green onions, whole-wheat flour, mustard greens and salad mix.

Blended wines can be more or less than the sum of their parts

seen restaurants that sell wines by the glass take the half-empty bottles left at the end of the day and combine them into a reducedprice â&#x20AC;&#x153;House Blendâ&#x20AC;? to sell by the glass the next day.

Done simply by whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on hand, these can turn out either less or more than the sum of their parts.

Here are some examples of blending: Barefoot Cellars, of Modesto, Calif., is blending four red grapes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; grenache from Spain, shiraz from Australia, malbec from Argentina and tempranillo from California â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to make a nonvintage red blend called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Impression.â&#x20AC;?

Nonvintage â&#x20AC;&#x153;Impression,â&#x20AC;? by Barefoot Cellars: deep red hue, very fruity, with aromas and flavors of blueberry pie, spice and milk chocolate, rich and sweet and soft; $7.

Alamos Winery in Argentinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mendoza Region is blending malbec, bonarda, tempranillo and syrah to create a user-friendly, approachable wine it calls simply â&#x20AC;&#x153;Red Blend.â&#x20AC;?

2012 Alamos Red Blend, Mendoza: dark hue, aromas and flavors of black cherries and black pepper, rich and hearty and very slightly sweet; $13.

In Italy, Bella Sera has created a red blend from merlot, syrah, bonarda, lambrusco, sangiovese, montepulciano and other grapes it also calls â&#x20AC;&#x153;Red Blend.â&#x20AC;?

Nonvintage Bella Sera Red Blend, Italy: soft and slightly sweet, with aromas and flavors of black raspberries and mocha, very fruity; $8.

In Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Central Coast, Bridlewood Estate Winery is blending cabernet sauvignon, syrah, petite sirah and viognier to make its â&#x20AC;&#x153;Central Coast Blend 175.â&#x20AC;? This is unusual because viognier is a white grape noted for its aromas and flavors of peaches and vanilla and for its seeming sweetness even when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dry.

2011 Bridlewood Central Coast Blend 175: very dark hue, hint of oak, crisp and fruity, with flavors of black raspberries and black coffee; $15.

In Santa Rosa, Northern California, Adler Fels Winery is creating a â&#x20AC;&#x153;National Parks Wine Collection,â&#x20AC;? with both white and red blends, with $2 per bottle donated to Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parks system. Its white blend is viognier, moscato, symphony, semillon and sauvignon blanc. Its red blend is zinfandel, syrah, merlot and petite sirah.

Nonvintage Adler Fels â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yosemiteâ&#x20AC;? Artisan White Wine, Sonoma Valley: intensely fruity, with aromas and flavors of ripe peaches and oranges and a hint of minerals; $16.

Nonvintage Adler Fels â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yosemiteâ&#x20AC;? Artisan Red Wine, Sonoma Valley: intensely fruity, with aromas and flavors of black cherries and spice; $16.

Grilled shrimp makes super-simple supper

EASY BAKED BARBECUED CHICKEN BREASTS ARE LEANER VERSION OF BARBECUED CHICKEN that still boast the most lovable aspects of the classic version — a mouth-watering sauce and an element of crunch.

A lighter take on barbecued chicken

By Sara Moulton Associated Press

Barbecued chicken is one of my favorite summertime dishes. I like every part of it — the tomato-based sauce (the spicier the better), the crispy skin, even the bones.

And taste aside, it’s also relatively healthy, at least as compared to such sundry first cousins as grilled and/or smoked ribs, brisket or pulled pork. It’s chicken, after all, and it wears that lean protein halo. Unfortunately, when it’s prepared with its skin and bones, and slathered with a sugary sauce, barbecued chicken is very nearly as caloric as its brethren. Know why chicken skin is so delicious? It’s high in fat.

So I set myself the task of coming up with a recipe for a leaner version of barbecued chicken that somehow still boasted the most lovable aspects of the classic version — a mouth-watering sauce and an element of crunch.

I started by enlisting the usual lean poultry suspect, the boneless, skinless chicken breast. The one problem with this virtuous ingredient is that it’s tough to cook just right.

Undercook it and you risk getting sick. Overcook it and you’re faced with a slab of protein as dry and tough as cardboard.

And then, as I discovered while developing this recipe, there’s another problem — chicken breasts come in all different sizes and thicknesses. Generally, if it’s labeled “cutlet,” it’s fairly thin. If it’s labeled “chicken breast,” it’s rather thick. But there’s a range of thickness within these categories, too. I tried both and opted for the latter because the thicker breasts were simply

harder to overcook.

The breasts also are covered for two-thirds of the cooking time, which helps keep them moist, further ensuring perfectly cooked barbecue.

By the way, the internal temperature of the cooked breasts should be 165 F. And be sure when you take the temperature to insert the thermometer sideways into the center, and not straight down from the top. That way you’ll get a more accurate reading. Also, don’t forget to let the chicken rest for a few minutes after you pull it out of the oven.

It’s another way to maximize the juiciness.

For the sauce, I wanted to conjure up something with big flavor that wasn’t too sweet and somehow didn’t require hours of simmering on top of the stove. I started with the usual ketchup base, balanced off the sugar with acid and Dijon mustard, then spiked it with a secret weapon — adobo sauce from canned chipotles in adobo. Chipotles are smoked jalapenos; they are hot and smoky, as is the adobo sauce they swim in. You also could use an actual chipotle, finely minced, but I found that a tad too fiery for this small amount of sauce.

By the way, if you open a whole can of chilies to make this sauce, you can freeze what you don’t use by putting a chili with a little sauce into each cube of an ice cube tray. Caution: after this baptism by fire, this particular tray will be usable only for freezing other spicy or tomato-based preparations.

Finally, I needed to add some crunch to the recipe to replicate the missing skin and bones.

Panko breadcrumbs did

the trick. One of my favorite ingredients these days, these fantastically crispy Japanese breadcrumbs are available at most grocers (check the international aisle if you don’t see them in with the regular breadcrumbs). I sauteed them in a little olive oil with some fresh thyme until they were nicely toasted, then topped the chicken with the crumbs for the last 10 minutes of baking, which guaranteed the crumbs would stick to the chicken, but not get soggy.

I was very pleased with the end result: a juicy, spicy, slightly crunchy, easy-to-make chicken barbecue that happens to be tasty hot, cold or at room temperature.

1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme Heat the oven to 350 F. In a small bowl combine the ketchup, adobo sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.

Line a shallow baking dish with foil, leaving enough excess to generously overhang the sides.

Spread half of the sauce on the foil in an area just the size of the chicken breasts.

Arrange the breasts on top of the sauce and spoon the remaining sauce over them.

Bring the edges of the foil up and over the chicken and fold it to enclose them.

Bake the breasts on the middle shelf of the oven for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small Easy Baked skillet over medium, heat Barbecued the oil. Add the breadthyme, a pinch Chicken Breasts crumbs, of salt and some pepper.

Pasta carbonara — richly cheesy, creamy and studded with crisped pancetta — is easily one of the most comforting of pasta dishes. The only trouble is, with the onset of warmer weather we tend to crave salads more than steaming bowls of pasta. So for this recipe, we decided to have it both ways.

We borrowed the key ingredients from pasta carbonara — right down to the eggy sauce and savory pancetta — but remade them as a picnicworthy pasta salad. Every bit as delicious as the traditional dish, but far more refreshing on a hot day.

And as with most pasta salads, this one is easily adjusted and added to.

Sliced sun-dried tomatoes, marinated mushrooms, roasted red peppers, even blanched asparagus all would make fine additions.

CARBONARA PASTA SALAD borrows the key ingredients from pasta carbonara — right down to the eggy sauce and savory pancetta — but remakes them as a picnicworthy pasta salad.

Carbonara Pasta Salad Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 8 16 ounces gemelli or rotini pasta 9 ounces finely chopped pancetta 1 cup fresh peas

3 egg yolks 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 cup mild olive oil Salt and ground black pepper 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 3 scallions, thinly sliced Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions.

Drain well, then spread on a rimmed baking sheet to cool.

Meanwhile, heat a medium skillet over mediumhigh heat. Add the pancetta and cook until crispy, about 6 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the pancetta to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool. Add the peas to the skillet and cook just until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the pancetta and allow to cool.

While everything cools,

1 box penne or bow tie pasta 1 pound frozen shrimp, peeled and deveined 1 bag frozen whole green beans Handful cherry tomatoes Handful baby carrots, cut into thirds 1/2 large red onion, quartered and cut into hunks 1/2 teaspoon dried basil 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (extra for dressing if desired) 1 tablespoon olive oil Dash of cayenne pepper Squeeze of lemon or 1/4 cup white wine Salt and pepper to taste Divide ingredients into three or four foil packets (depending on how large you make them).

Grill over medium heat for 15 minutes or until the carrots are softened (they’ll still have some crunch, which I like for texture in the dish). You could just as easily do this in a casserole at 425 degrees for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, boil the pasta in salty water to al dente.

So easy, delicious and nutritious!

But even Buckingham doesn’t walk around furiously focusing on his next beer-food pairing all the time.

At the end of the day, there’s another beer pairing rule that’s just like wine: Drink whatever you like, whether an expert or some kind of chart suggests it or not.

Pizza is a case in point.

“It really doesn’t matter what beer it is,” Buckingham said, it’s probably going to taste great.

Pasta carbonara remade as a summer salad

By Alison Ladman

’ve already made my family tired of my usual grilling suspects, and we’ve barely even had a week’s worth of decent grilling evenings.

Usually, we grill on weeknights when the weather is nice and I either don’t have the time or the desire to spend much time in the kitchen. The beauty is that there is little cleanup and that Mr. Meat and Potatoes does the bulk of the work. I just chop and prep and send him out with a platter full of foil packets and maybe a few hunks of meat.

Almost invariably, several of those foil packets are filled with thinly sliced potatoes drizzled with a bit of olive oil and some seasonings.

This is a super-easy and forgiving way to grill potatoes because they get done in a reasonable amount of time, and you can always jazz them up with different seasonings, or an onion, or some cheese, or whatever curls your toes.

But, after so many packets of potatoes, everyone starts looking for a different side dish, a different grilling experience all around. So on Monday, when we were all still tired from a fun-filled Mother’s Day weekend, I broke out some shrimp and some veggies and put together a little meal that was quick but also a little different than the usual: not a potato in sight.

I made grilled shrimp and vegetable packets with sort of whatever I had lying around, and then I boiled a little pasta inside so those who aren’t counting Weight Watcher points could get full. I thought of it sort of as “Hot Summer Pasta Salad” and the flavors were

THE FLYING FORK

by Megan Stuke simple yet divine. And I only had one pot to clean up! You could do this with whatever vegetables you have around — I wished I’d had a summer squash to throw in, but we make do with what we have.

Hot Summer Pasta Salad

Main courses Match the intensity of the beer with the intensity of the food.

Try: Grilled fish with a Pilsner, roasted chicken with a malty lager or pale ale, barbecue with a Maibock or abbey-style dubbel to tame the heat, grilled or roast beef with a hearty porter or stout.

Cheese Bright carbonation and crispness can handle cheeses’ mouth-coating richness.

Try: Powerful cheese like Stilton with an assertive barley wine, blue cheese with an IPA, chèvre with hefeweizen, soft-ripened cheese like Brie with fruit beer, aged cheddar with stout, smoked cheese with a smoked porter.

Dessert Rich, full-flavored beers are good for balancing the sweetness of most desserts.

Try: Fruity desserts with a strong pale tripel, caramelly bread pudding or nut tarts with old ale, super-sweet cheesecake or crème brulée with highly hopped beers like double IPAs, milk chocolate with Belgian-inspired strong dark ale, flourless chocolate cake or truffles with inky imperial stout, fruit desserts with fruit beers.

HOPPY COUPLE Crafting brews that bring out the best in food

By Sara Shepherd

I

f anyone fits the beer-drinker demographic, it would be the beer-maker-in-chief at a brewery, right?

Well, Free State Brewing Co. brewmaster Steve Bradt has a secret that may shock people: He loves beer floats.

To be clear, Bradt isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talking about plopping ice cream in a Bud Light.

The craft beer movement â&#x20AC;&#x201D; being celebrated this week during American Craft Beer Week â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is creating new, flavorful and multidimensional brews every day. Just like wine, these beers have colors, aromas, mouthfeels and flavors. And just like wine, they can be strategically paired with food to enhance the sensory experience of both. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really shaken up what people see as the demographic of a beer drinker,â&#x20AC;? Bradt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just guys sitting in front of the TV watching a football game anymore.â&#x20AC;?

In recent years, brewers at Free State, 636 Massachusetts St., have led numerous beer dinners at upscale restaurants in Lawrence and the Kansas City area, including one just last week at Rye in Leawood â&#x20AC;&#x201D; days after its chef Colby Garrelts was named Best Chef in the Midwest by the James Beard Foundation.

The beer floats Bradt likes come from a more casual environment: the summertime Cottinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hardware Farmers Market, 1832 Massachusetts St. Drop a scoop of ice cream from the Iwig Dairy stand into an Oatmeal Stout from the Free State stand, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made your own Stout Float.

Rich, creamy stout plus rich, creamy ice cream, with the beerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strong flavor balancing the ice creamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sweetness â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it works.

Another of Bradtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite matches is strong, hefty beer such as barley wine with artisan cheese. The flavors go well together, Bradt said, and the beerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bubbles and crispness almost act as a palate cleanser between cheeses.

Last week during a morning of brewing, Bryan â&#x20AC;&#x153;Buckyâ&#x20AC;? Buckingham, head brewer at 23rd Street Brewery, 3512 Clinton Parkway, surmised heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d probably be eating hot wings for lunch, along with a glass of IPA. Why does that work?

According to the Brewers Association, good beer pairings either balance out or emphasize the flavor of the food. So as long as you can handle the heat, the hoppy bitterness of an IPA will rise up to the spiciness of those wings and emphasize the flavor.

Buckingham said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d recently enjoyed a â&#x20AC;&#x153;nice Belgian blondâ&#x20AC;? alongside an organic beet salad with champagne dressing while on vacation in San Diego. An avid fly fisherman, he also named blond ale and KĂślsch, a light but medium-hoppy German style, as his favorite beers to drink with a dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s haul of fresh trout.

‘Idol’ winds down; who cares?

The last two finalists warble for the judges on the final night of competition on “American Idol” (7 p.m., Fox). But will the judges pay attention? Or will they be staring at their pink slips? Reports surfaced or, rather, erupted last week that the entire panel was going to be fired. Even Randy (“Yo, yo, yo, dawg”) Jackson quit, and he’s been part of the show since Millard Fillmore was president.

I don’t know enough, or care enough, and haven’t paid sufficient attention to catalog the shortcomings of judges Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban. Suffice it to say, they were famous, so they were supposed to drag their fans into the show’s audience. Instead, they seemed to repel the show’s faithful.

These things happen. And not just on television. Anybody who follows baseball knows that owners can buy a boatload of highpaid talent, but they can’t always forge good teams. It’s called bad chemistry. The latest example of a chemistry project gone awry can be found in Toronto. More than any other team, the Blue Jays added lots of talent in the offseason. Many prognosticators picked them to dominate their division.

So far, they stink. It’s only May, so the Blue Jays can turn it around.

But “Idol” wraps up its year Thursday night, and sadly, more people will tune in to see how ugly it gets rather than watch the new winner be crowned. That’s what happens when you turn what was once the most popular talent competition on television into “Hollywood Squares.”

“Arrow” (7 p.m., CW), a bona fide hit for its network and one of the more successful new shows to launch this season, wraps up its first year with Oliver and Diggle racing to stop the Dark Archer.

Tonight’s season finales:

A journalist gets embedded with the team on “CSI” (9 p.m., CBS).

Hellzapoppin’ on “Supernatural” (8 p.m., CW).

Tonight’s other highlights:

“MythBusters” (8 p.m., Discovery) tackles life’s most compelling question: electric hand dryer or paper towel?

Auditions continue on “So You Think You Can Dance” (8 p.m., Fox).

An RV vacation feels too close for comfort on “Modern Family” (8 p.m., ABC).

appreciate it if he would be civil in your interactions. Otherwise, you will expect him to get his information through the school, and you will instruct the office to include him. His girlfriend seems abusive to you, and it’s a shame your ex doesn’t have the backbone to stand up to her.

(She may be abusive to him, as well.) We trust she does not take this out on your child, but please keep an eye on that.

Dear Annie: I just left my dermatologist’s office after waiting an hour to see him, and I’m furious.

Don’t doctors realize that their patients’ time is also valuable? Another doctor left me sitting in his office for two hours, and I was the second appointment of the day. When I asked the receptionist why the long wait, she told me the doctor likes to flirt with the nurses at the hospital. This same doctor charged me for a hospital visit after he popped his head into my

If doctors know they are likely to run late, why don’t they stretch the time between appointments? I’m sick and tired of physicians expecting their patients to finance their fancy homes and golf memberships while they treat us so poorly. — Fed Up in Louisville Dear Fed Up: Some doctors cannot help running late if they have emergencies. And others are working to schedule less crowded appointments or to phone patients when they are behind.

Dear Annie: I am finally divorced. My ex and I have a child together. My ex has met my new partner, and they get along great. I thought it would be healthy for our son to see us as friends.

I also thought it would be nice to meet my ex’s new girlfriend since they’ve been a couple as long as I’ve been with my guy. I made several requests to introduce myself, but she refuses to meet me. I find this odd, because she helps take care of my son when he’s in my ex’s home. It seems to be a control tactic on her part.

My ex never stands up to this woman about her treatment of me, and although I’ve never said a nasty word to her, she sends me ranting emails regularly. She once mailed a four-page hate letter about my parenting skills.

I feel bullied.

For the record, my ex is kind to me when she is not around. But when he’s
