Superintendent ‘scared to death’ of new tax law

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

Lawrence schools Superintendent Rick Doll said Thursday he is thankful the Legislature approved an increase in school funding but is “scared to death” about what the tax cuts signed into

‘We’ll probably be back in a cut mode in a couple of years’ law by Gov. Sam Brownback will do to school budgets in future years.

“We’ll probably be back in a cut mode in a couple of years,” Doll said. “We’ve been through that cut mode

before, and it’s really hard on the community; it’s damaging to morale, and it’s not good for kids.”

In the budget approved by legislators earlier this week, public schools would receive

an increase of about $40 million for the next school year.

The measure is now before Brownback for his consideration.

That increase would raise base state aid from $3,780

per student to $3,838 per student, an increase of $58 per student. That level remains far below the $4,400 per student in 2008-09 and below Please see TAX, page 2A Doll

A.G. allowed to join lawsuit ——

Schmidt’s role limited to weighing in on legal fees

Because of the nature of the grant funding, only sidewalks in neighborhoods designated as low-to-moderate income in nature will be eligible for the city funds.

TOPEKA — Kansas’ Republican attorney general will be allowed to participate in a redistricting lawsuit, three federal judges ruled Thursday, but only to weigh in on fees lawyers will seek after the case ends.

Attorney General Derek Schmidt has said he wants to prevent the state from paying unreasonable legal fees.

Schmidt will be a defendant, along with Secretary of State Kris Kobach, also a Republican, who has said the current political boundaries are unacceptable because Schmidt the state’s population has shifted over the past decade.

The Legislature adjourned Sunday without approving new maps for the congressional, state House and Senate and State Board of Education districts. The impasse was caused by a bitter feud among Republicans over new Senate districts and whether they’re drawn to help GOP moderates keep control of the chamber and check conservative Republican Gov. Sam Brownback’s agenda.

With Schmidt’s addition, the judges are allowing 27 individuals — including key figures in the Legislature’s rancorous debate — to participate. Kobach and Robyn Renee Essex, a Republican precinct committee member from Olathe who filed the lawsuit earlier this month, are also involved. Court records listed 35 attorneys Thursday as representing various parties.

The judges had a short phone conference hearing Thursday, and a trial is scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kan. The state’s candidate filing deadline is June 11, and the primary election is Aug. 7.

Schmidt spokesman Jeff Wagaman said the attorney general was pleased with the

Students celebrate end of year

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

The students at New York School won’t miss math, homework or having to be quiet.

But they will miss gym class, recess, friends and teachers over the summer.

On Thursday the school celebrated the last day of school with a cookout lunch provided by the Lawrence Breakfast Optimist Club.

“This is awesome; we get to eat outside,” Tristan Chavez yelled as he ran from the lunch line.

Tristan plans to spend his summer at the pool, but he says he will miss gym class.

“It was great. I had a fun time,” Tristan said

the base state aid level of $3,870 per student of a decade ago in 2001-02.

In recent years, schools have sustained several rounds of cuts as the state weathered historic drops in revenue during the recession.

For the Lawrence school district, the increase approved by legislators would mean an additional $804,860 for the next school year. Eudora and Baldwin City will receive an additional $110,664 and $109,208, respectively.

ruling. Deputy Attorney General Jeff Chanay told the judges that Schmidt’s office did not intend to present evidence on any redistricting proposals.

“We would simply be an observer on those points,” he said.

The only objection to Schmidt’s participation came jointly from state House Minority Leader Paul Davis, of Lawrence, and former state Rep. Bill Roy Jr., of Lenexa, who both were allowed to intervene.

One of their attorneys, Steven Smith, said Kobach and his attorney could “easily” handle issues

about legal fees — which Kobach disputes.

The state could face paying other parties’ fees because Essex filed her lawsuit over deviations in the populations of existing districts — past federal court rulings require districts to be as equal in population as possible.

State officials, including Kobach, concede that the current lines, drawn in 2002, do not meet constitutional standards.

Smith said if Kobach feels fees sought by attorneys are unreasonable, “It doesn’t require two state officials to come in and make that same argument.” Still, he acknowleged that Davis’ and Roy’s case wouldn’t be unfairly harmed if Schmidt’s involvement was limited to issues involving legal fees.

tional dollars we are getting, and we are going to spend it on kids,” he said.

But that increase may be short-lived because of the new law that will cut individual income tax rates for 2013 and eliminate income taxes for the owners of 191,000 businesses. The state sales tax of 6.3 percent is already scheduled to decrease to 5.7 percent in July 2013.

A legislative research staff report said the tax cuts would produce a budget shortfall for the next session of the Legislature that could grow to the $2.5 billion to $3 billion range within six years.

Brownback, however, contends that the state budget will be in good shape because the tax cuts will result in increased economic activity and jobs.

He also said his administration will continue to find areas to reduce spending, although he vowed to fund what he calls the core services of government.

“Now, all major policy changes, just like changes in life, are met with understandable criticisms

and skepticisms,” Brownback said. “But let me say clearly we will meet the needs of our schools and our most vulnerable, and our roads will get built.”

But educators say Brownback’s math doesn’t add up. Losing a significant amount of tax revenue will have an impact on schools, which is about half of the state budget, they said. A simulation done at the request of a legislator showed what would happen if general state aid to schools was reduced by $1 billion.

Lawrence schools would be cut by $21.1 million under that scenario.

“I hope the governor is right,” Doll said. But, he said, he doesn’t believe the tax cuts will create the economic increase that would be needed to offset the loss of revenue.

“We are scared to death,” Doll said. “The state could be running deficits within two years.

If they start to run deficits, then the solution is to raise taxes or cut school programs.”

Travel to increase; area lake crowds expected Meagan Thomas mthomas@ljworld.com

National surveys by AAA show that travel across the United States will be up 1.2 percent compared with last Memorial Day weekend.

AAA Executive Vice President of Public Affairs Jim Hanni said the travel estimates for Thursday through Monday are higher in the northern part of the west-central U.S., which includes Kansas, than they are nationally.

The average distance traveled during the holiday in the region is expected to be 665 miles round-trip, which is down about 19 percent compared with 2011. However, AAA is predicting Kansas residents will travel farther than the national average of 642 miles roundtrip. Eighty-eight percent of people going out of town will travel by car.

“We’re able to get in our car and go a little easier in the rural areas,” Hanni said.

Lower gas prices may mean even more travelers than estimated based on the survey, Hanni said.

Gas is 21 cents lower now than a month ago and 44 cents lower than last year, and Hanni thinks people are being more “aggressive” with traveling.

Packard auction set for Saturday Meagan Thomas mthomas@ljworld.com Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo

ONLINE: See the video at LJWorld.com

Pieces of Lawrence history will be up for auction Saturday after a push from the city to restore the deteriorating buildings and lot at 1106 R.I. The property, owned by the estate of Raymond Barland, contains 15 Packard cars, lumber that came from historic Lawrence buildings, old tools and equipment from University Motors, and boxes of collectibles acquired by the Barland family since the 1960s.

“A lot of Lawrence history, vehicle history, family history and change is what you’ll find (come Saturday),” Brian Barland, a son of Raymond Barland and executor for the estate, said.

Raymond and his brothers, Delmar and Leroy Barland, were the owners of University Motors, which was located at 707 N.H until 1963, when the city bought the property to create parking for downtown. As a result, the Barland family purchased the property on Rhode

Island Street, and it has since been used to house the old Packards and other scraps from the auto shop, which doubled as a Packard dealership until the cars were discontinued in the mid-1950s.

“Dad always thought that they had value, and I guess we always did too,” Brian Barland said. “And we just held on to them, probably too long.”

Some of the Packards were left at University Motors by owners who never picked them up after they were serviced.

Some were bought back from the original owner

by Raymond Barland, and others belonged to members of the Barland family.

One particular Packard was the first car Brian ever drove.

Most of the lumber and scraps filling the lot were collected from structures being torn down. Raymond Barland used to collect and save the lumber

AAA offices have noticed a dramatic increase in traffic this year. Kansas map requests have tripled from April 1 to now compared with last year, with 613 requests versus 189, said Hanni, which means people are planning trips in the Kansas region.

There is no way for AAA to determine whether the people requesting information plan on traveling over the Memorial Day weekend or are planning trips for later in the summer.

Suspect in TV station attack fixated on V.A. TOPEKA (AP) — A knifewielding man suspected of breaking into a Kansas television station and fighting with employees had a court record and had been kicked out of at least two homeless shelters.

Ray Anthony Miles, 48, is jailed in Shawnee County on suspicion of six counts, including aggravated battery and burglary. The Topeka CapitalJournal reported that no formal charges have been filed, but bond was set at $100,000 during a court appearance Thursday in which the judge made a “conditional appointment” of a public defender.

Miles said he would accept the public defender, “but if he doesn’t look good, I’ll get rid of him.”

WIBW-TV reported that the melee started Wednesday morning after the man went to the station and complained that the Department of Veterans Affairs was mishandling his case. Miles stormed out after the news director advised him to discuss the issue with the VA. But the station reported that he returned about 10 minutes later and threw a lamp through the glassfront doors. The man ran through the halls until he was tackled. While several employees were restraining the man and waiting for police to arrive, the man stabbed and bit one sales employee.

None of the injuries were considered serious.

Court records show Miles was convicted of misdemeanors in 2007 and 2010 in Kansas. The most recent case was for battery to a law enforcement officer and criminal trespass.

Koi Henderson, Perry Lake natural resource specialist with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is expecting 25,000 visitors and said the campgrounds surrounding Perry Lake were completely booked for the holiday weekend.

Rhoades and Henderson both stressed the importance of preparing vehicles and boats prior to going to either lake, and the importance of using life jackets and being safety conscious.

Auction

from various homes and businesses in Lawrence.

Brian Barland remembers helping his dad at the shop as a boy and even driving the nails out of salvaged lumber to make it easier to stack. After helping to remove the lumber and scraps, Raymond would bring it to the property on Rhode Island for storage.

The house on the lot hasn’t been lived in for years, said Brian Barland, and the lot hasn’t been kept up. “I can’t deny the fact that the (buildings) do need attention, and it’s been past time,” he said.

Barland said that whether the house and structures will be fixed or whether he and his siblings will be involved is still under discussion, but he says there’s been interest in both the property and the buildings.

“It’s a unique piece of property. It’s a unique history, but it’s a huge undertaking,” he said.

Although pieces of his own past will be removed as the lot is emptied, Barland is hopeful the Packards and scraps will go to owners who appreciate what they are.

“Hopefully somebody can do something with

the parts or the cars,” he said. “If it all goes to scrap, then that’s the way it is.”

The Raymond F. Barland Estate will auction off a collection of 15 Packard cars from the 1950s, as well as car parts, scraps and equipment Saturday and will hold a second auction for the furniture on the lot June 24.

The auction will begin at 10 a.m. Saturday at 1106 R.I., and interested buyers may inspect the day of or by appointment.

2 arrested in car-wash burglaries Lawrence police arrested two men Wednesday night as suspects in two carwash burglaries, Sgt. Trent McKinley said.

The first burglary occurred about 8:40 p.m. at 2828 Iowa as two suspects broke glass out of a rear door to access a building, causing about $1,000 in damage.

A witness observed the suspects and provided a description of them and their vehicle to police.

McKinley said while officers were investigating the first burglary, they responded to an alarm at another car wash, 3560 W. Sixth St., and observed the same vehicle described on Iowa at the nearby Kwik Shop, 3440 W. Sixth St. Officers later arrested

the two Lawrence men in the vehicle, ages 19 and 23, on charges of theft, two counts of burglary and two counts of criminal damage each.

McKinley said it appeared the suspects were unsuccessful in accessing cash boxes at the car washes, although they were suspected of using an ax in both cases to damage the boxes. According to Douglas County Jail records, both suspects were released Thursday morning after they posted bond and were given notices to appear in court June 7.

Prosecutors could file formal charges before then.

The Journal-World generally does not identify suspects unless they are charged.

Q:

If door-to-door solicitors have a valid city license, can they come to my door even if I have a “No Solicitors” sign posted outside my door?

A:

According to the Lawrence Police Department, it is unlawful to solicit at a residence or business that has a sign displayed that prohibits soliciting or trespassing. Even with a license, they are also not allowed to solicit between the hours of 8 p.m. and 9 a.m. These violations can be reported to police.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence police spokesman, said also officers had received about a dozen calls in the last two weeks about door-to-door solicitors with licenses misrepresenting themselves as being affiliated with the homeowner’s home security company to try to gain entry into the residence to sell a different security system. McKinley said police are working with the consumer protection unit of Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson’s office to try to determine what other avenues officials may have regarding such behavior.

Sunburn prevention hot topic

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

It’s national Don’t Fry Day, and it’s not about eliminating greasy food.

It’s about not cooking your skin.

Before Memorial Day weekend and the unofficial start to summer, the National Council on Skin Cancer Prevention uses the day to remind everyone to protect their skin while enjoying the outdoors.

With a forecast of sunny skies and temperatures in the 90s this weekend, Lawrence residents likely will be hitting area lakes, pools and golf courses.

Lawrence dermatologist Matthew Buxton hopes everyone takes the following precautions to help prevent sunburn:

Stay indoors between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. to avoid the most intense rays.

Put on sunscreen about 20 minutes before heading outdoors. If out-

side for several hours, use a sunscreen with SPF of 45 or higher, and it needs to be reapplied every two to three hours.

Wear a hat, sunglasses and other protective clothing.

If there’s shade, stay in it.

Buxton said everyone is different as far as how long they can be in the sun before getting a burn.

People with dark skin and dark eyes can be outdoors for prolonged periods and not have many problems.

Meanwhile, he said, people with fair skin, red or blond hair, and green or blue eyes are going “to fry more quickly” and shouldn’t be in the sun for more than an hour with good sunscreen.

If you get a sunburn, Buxton said there’s no magic bullet for relief, but the following steps can be helpful:

Using plain aloe vera gel, not the kind with additives like benzocaine because people can be allergic to them.

Soaking in a cool to lukewarm bath.

Taking ibuprofen or Aleve.

“If it’s really serious with blisters, you should seek a doctor’s help,” he said. “It’s not uncommon to get little blisters, but if you have a large blister it could mean there’s more risk for infection or other issues.”

Lawrence Memorial Hospital’s emergency room treats about a dozen people for sunburns each year.

Buxton said people should avoid too much sun exposure because it can cause skin cancer and premature aging. “It makes you look old before your time. The more sun you have, the older you look,” he said.

Groundbreaking ceremony heralds St. John’s expansion ———

School addition would accommodate grades 7, 8

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

With garden trowels, spade shovels and toy dump trucks, the students of St. John Catholic School broke ground for a new addition to the building at 1208 Ky. The ceremonial groundbreaking marks the school’s expansion into the upper middle school grades. The real groundbreaking isn’t expected until late summer or early fall. The school still needs approval from the archdiocese and the city of Lawrence before construction can begin.

When completed, the estimated $2 million project would include six new classrooms. One classroom will be a library with multipurpose space, and another will provide lab space.

On Thursday, the last day of school at St. John, the Rev. John Schmeidler blessed the ground with

holy water as parents, students and teachers watched.

As the school waits for final approvals, Schmeidler said the ceremony symbolized their move to seventh and eighth grades.

The expansion, which is expected to be done in time for the start of the 2013 school year, will make it easier for St. John to add seventh- and eighth-grade students. This year, the school had its first sixthgrade class, which had the middle school elements of lockers and schedules.

Next year, the school plans to add a seventhgrade class and then an eighth-grade class in 2013.

“We have enough space for seventh grade. It will be tight, but it will work.

By eighth-grade year, we will need some other (space),” Schmeidler said.

The expansion would provide enough room for the upper grades. A group of fifth-grade girls were

BRIEFLY Preservation group sets public events The Lawrence Preservation Alliance is hosting two events in June for those interested in learning more about historic preservation.

The first event is a workshop on window restoration, scheduled from 9 a.m. to noon June 2 at 1313 Mass., next to the Castle Tea Room. The event is designed for do-it-yourself homeowners and building repair professionals.

A second workshop is focused on providing information about listing a property on the National Register of Historic Places.

That workshop is scheduled from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

June 4 at the Center for Design Research, which is at 2544 Westbrooke Circle on Kansas University’s West Campus. Information about architectural styles, how to list properties and the benefits for the owner and the building will be provided.

Both events are free and open to the public. Registration, however, is required for the window restoration workshop. To register for

the event, visit lawrencepreservation.org/events-2.

Disaster declared in western Kan. counties President Barack Obama on Thursday signed a disaster declaration affecting 14 counties that were hit last month by severe weather.

The declaration means federal funding is available to state and eligible local governments and certain private nonprofit organizations on a cost-sharing basis for emergency work and the repair or replacement of facilities damaged by the storms, tornadoes, straightline winds, and flooding, the White House said.

The counties receiving the declaration: Edwards, Ellsworth, Harper, Hodgeman, Jewell, Kiowa, Mitchell, Osborne, Rice, Rush, Russell, Sedgwick, Stafford and Sumner.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency said additional designations may be made later if requested by the state and warranted by the results of further damage assessments.

Koch Industries mulls site expansion WICHITA (AP) — Koch Industries officials are in preliminary discussions about the possibility of expanding the company’s headquarters in Wichita to accommodate any future growth, a company spokeswoman said.

The company, which employs about 2,600 people in Wichita, has about 200 vacant positions and is running out of room to fill them at its north Wichita campus, The Wichita Eagle reported Thursday.

“Although continued growth is not certain, it is important that we plan for that potential,” spokeswoman Melissa Cohlmia said. “Given this, we are reviewing possible options to build additional office space on our Wichita campus.”

Cohlmia stressed that the company is not yet

committed to expansion.

“At this point, we are only exploring options,” Cohlmia said. “No changes are imminent and there is no certainty about whether we will proceed with any building project.”

Any Koch expansion would be a “significant stabilizer for the Wichita economy,” said Jeremy Hill, director of the Center for Economic Development and Business Research at Wichita State University.

“That’s a very positive thing for an economy that is very dependent on the manufacturing sector, a sector that has been lacking,” Hill said. “It’s pretty clear they have a significant impact on that.”

The company recently finished expanding one of its buildings and is planning to expand another.

excited about the prospect of having lockers, science labs and more space one day.

“It feels like right now we’re all cramped,” Sammy Williams said.

She also liked the idea of being there for the groundbreaking.

“You get to start building the building. When you come back to school you will be able to say I helped build this building,” she said.

KANSAS CITY, MO. — In the plains of central Kansas, tornadoes are so unremarkable that guests barely flinched as a barrel-racing bride wed her bull-riding groom with a twister dropping from the sky just miles away.

But for people living outside Tornado Alley, Caleb and Candra Pence’s wedding last Saturday is generating the kind of buzz usually reserved for celebrity nuptials.

The video of the service has gone viral, garnering more than 20,000 views on YouTube and a flurry of media coverage.

“It is amazing how fast it has taken off,” said the groom’s uncle, Lee Pence, who shot the video.

After Saturday’s outdoor service on the groom’s family farm near the small south-central Kansas town of Harper, the couple posed for photos with the twister visible behind them. The pictures capture them smiling serenely — the 21-year-old

bride in a white gown and the 22-year-old groom in a cowboy hat and jeans.

About eight to 10 miles away, the twister was damaging a farm and wind turbines. The National Weather Service has classified it as an EF-3 storm, packing winds of 138 to 167 miles per hour.

“I don’t know how on earth I will ever top this,” said wedding photographer Cate Eighmey, who said she posed the pair for dramatic shots of the newlyweds and the twister behind them. Eighmey’s photo shows what appears to be a second funnel dropping down from the cloud.

The couple have spent their honeymoon in Wyoming fielding media calls.

Reached on his cellphone

by The Associated Press, Caleb Pence recalled seeing the wall cloud forming as the service was about to begin. But with tornadoes a routine occurrence, the storm was the least of his worries.

“I had my mind on marrying my now wife,” said Caleb Pence.

Obama’s 2008 magic in Iowa all gone, up for grabs

By Ken Thomas and Thomas Beaumont Associated Press

DES MOINES, IOWA — The Iowa magic that launched Barack Obama to the presidency four years ago has all but faded.

Soured by the direction of the nation and its economy, Iowa has drifted away from Obama since his 2008 caucus victory over Hillary Rodham Clinton made him the Democratic front-runner. And while he carried the state in the general election by a comfortable margin that year, polls this year have shown voters narrowly preferring Republican challenger Mitt Romney, who plans to wage his own major effort in Iowa.

Today, the Democrat who emerged Cinderella-like with a hope-filled message four years ago is sharply attacking Romney’s economic credentials and his ability to grasp voters’ everyday concerns.

Obama’s visit Thursday to blue-collar Newton, Iowa, and his Des Moines campaign rally near where Romney once declared that corporations are people, underscored the president’s own vulnerability with working-class voters and his effort to identify with the middle class.

While offering only six of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency, how Iowa voters ultimately judge Obama is expected to be an important factor in the race.

“Last time it was a lot more exciting. It was a new thing,” said Nancy Bobo, a Des Moines Obama volunteer and one of his earliest Iowa backers in 2008. “Today, we’re all just very serious.”

Obama was visiting a former Maytag Corp. appliance plant in Newton, a town devastated by the plant’s closing in 2005.

The plant now houses TPI

Composites, a wind-turbine blade manufacturer.

Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, has made the struggling economy the centerpiece of his campaign.

But Obama can point to comparatively low 5.1 percent unemployment in Iowa, where stable financial services and strong agriculture sectors buoyed the economy while manufacturing has struggled to rebound.

Obama’s Des Moines rally, his first in Iowa since announcing his candidacy for re-election, is symbolically set for the Iowa State Fairgrounds, within steps of where Romney declared last year that “corporations are people.”

Romney made the comment as he argued against raising taxes as a way of shoring up Social Security and Medicare.

Members of the audience interrupted, calling for increased taxes on corporations, and Romney responded: “Corporations are people, my friend. ... Everything corporations earn ultimately goes to people.”

The comment has been used by opponents to characterize Romney, a former private equity firm executive, as more comfortable in the boardroom than the shop floor.

Obama’s campaign has emphasized episodes in which Romney’s former firm closed plants and laid off workers, and has aired a stinging TV ad on the subject in Iowa, Colorado, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia.

Obama himself has struggled to attract bluecollar voters, keys to winning struggling swing working-class regions such as southeast Ohio, western Pennsylvania and rural Iowa. Newton is the seat of Jasper County, Iowa, where unemployment was 7.1 percent in April, higher than Iowa’s average but down sharply from last winter.

His bride, a native of northeast Nebraska who had never seen a tornado before, was much less at ease. He said that when he told her what was happening, she responded, “I don’t want to hear it right now.’”

Some of the guests who filled the 250 folding chairs checked weather reports on their cellphones. But otherwise, the 20-minute service — complete with a solo singing performance — wasn’t altered.

Afterward, the couple, who met at a rodeo, made a dramatic horseback ride to the metal farm building that had been transformed into the reception site.

They scarcely got inside when the skies opened up and poured down rain.

The party didn’t end until after midnight.

“I don’t know how we did it,” Caleb Pence said.

“It boggles my mind how perfect it worked.”

Man arrested for murder of boy missing since 1979 Mo. opts for untested Photo of child that disappeared was one of first to be on milk carton

By Colleen Long and Tom Hays Associated Press

NEW YORK — A former convenience store worker confessed to luring 6-year-old Etan Patz from his school bus stop in 1979 and choking him to death in a basement, police said Thursday, ending a threedecades long investigation into one of the nation’s most baffling missingchildren cases.

Pedro Hernandez, 51, of Maple Shade, N.J., was arrested on a murder charge after he told police he promised the boy a soda, took him to his store — just blocks from Etan’s lower Manhattan home — and killed him there, Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.

Hernandez told police he put Etan’s body in some trash about a block from the store, Kelly said, where it’s possible it was picked up by sanitation crews.

No body has been recovered, and Kelly said it’s possible the remains would never be found.

Hernandez was questioned by police for more than three hours after he was picked up in New Jersey Wednesday, and gave police a signed confession, Kelly said. His motive was not yet clear.

It’s not clear if he had an attorney; an arraignment was expected sometime today. No one answered the door at Hernandez’ New Jersey home Thursday night.

“He was remorseful, and I think the detectives thought that it was a feeling of relief on his part” to confess, Kelly said. “We believe that this is the individual responsible for the crime.”

The arrest is the first ever in the decades-old case that gave rise to the missing-children’s movement and ushered in an era of anxiety about leaving children unsupervised.

Etan’s photo was one of the first of a missing child to appear on a milk carton.

The anniversary of Etan’s disappearance, which is today, was named National Missing Children’s Day by presidential proclamation in 1983.

Global warming winner: Once rare butterfly thrives

By Seth Borenstein Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Global warming is rescuing the once-rare brown Argus butterfly, scientists say.

Man-made climate is threatening the existence of many species, such as the giant polar bear. But in the case of the small drab British butterfly, it took a species in trouble and made it thrive.

It’s all about food. Over about 25 years, the butterfly went from in trouble to pushing north in Britain where it found a veritable banquet. Now the butterfly lives in twice as large an area as it once did and is not near threatened, according to a study in today’s issue of the journal Science.

Decades ago, the brown Argus “was sort of a special butterfly that you would have to go to a special place to see and now it’s a butterfly you can see in regular farmland or all over the place,” said study

Global warming helping the brown Argus is unusual compared to other species and that’s why scientists are studying it more, said study co-author Jane Hill, a professor of ecology at the University of York.

Biologists expect climate change to create winners and losers in species. Stanford University

biologist Terry Root, who wasn’t part of this study, estimated that for every winner like the brown Argus there are three loser species, like the cuckoo bird in Europe. Hill agreed that it’s probably a threeto-one ratio of climate change losers to winners.

As the world warms, the key interactions between species break down because the predator and prey may not change habitats at the same time, meaning some species will move north to cooler climes and won’t find enough to eat, Root said.

“There are just so many species that are going to go extinct,” Root said.

What makes the brown Argus different is that it found something new to eat, something even better than its old food: the less common rockrose plant, Hill said. The new food is a geranium and it is more widespread.

“It’s almost like the whole of the buffet is now open to it,” Hill said.

the store for about a month and wasn’t questioned at the outset, Kelly said. But he later told relatives, as far back as 1981, that he had “done something bad” and killed an unnamed child in New York City, he said.

After a search of a basement near Patz’ lower Manhattan home last month hurtled the case back into the news, a tipster pointed police to Hernandez. Kelly said the person wasn’t a relative, but knew that Hernandez had said he had done a bad thing, he said.

Hernandez was known to police as being a worker at the convenience store — a popular fixture in the neighborhood — but was never questioned, though other people in the shop were.

He left his job days after Etan disappeared and moved to New Jersey, where he had relatives, Kelly said. Hernandez later worked in construction but has been collecting disability payments since a 1993 back injury, police said. He is married with a teenage daughter, he said.

The focus on Hernandez came after other leads arose and stalled, at one point taking investigators as far as Israel tracking reported sightings of the boy.

KIEF’S

By Jim Salter Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — The same anesthetic that caused the overdose death of pop star Michael Jackson is now the drug of choice for executions in Missouri, causing a stir among critics who question how the state can guarantee a drug untested for lethal injection won’t cause pain and suffering for the condemned.

Last week the Missouri Department of Corrections announced it was switching from its longstanding three-drug method to use of a single drug, propofol.

Missouri would be the first state ever to use propofol as an execution drug.

“This is very, very concerning with a drug that we don’t know, and seeing the problems of the onedrug method,” said Kathleen Holmes of Missourians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty.

Until recently, the 33 states with the death penalty used a virtually identical three-drug process: Sodium thiopental was administered to put the inmate to sleep, then two other drugs stopped the

heart and lungs. But makers of sodium thiopental have stopped selling it for use in executions. Supplies mostly ran out or expired, forcing states to consider alternatives.

Most states have retained the three-drug method but turned to pentobarbital as a replacement for sodium thiopental.

Pentobarbital, a barbiturate used to treat anxiety and convulsive disorders such as epilepsy, has been used in roughly 50 executions over the past two years, said Richard Dieter, executive director of the Washington-based Death Penalty Information Center.

But its use may be short-lived as its maker also opposes selling it for use in executions.

The statement announcing the change in Missouri said the decision was “due to the unavailability of sodium thiopental” but did not elaborate on why propofol was chosen. The protocol change was administrative and did not require legislative approval. The Corrections Department declined interview requests.

Times-Picayune to cut paper to 3 days a week

By Cain Burdeau Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — The Times-Picayune, one of the nation’s oldest newspapers, will no longer offer print editions seven days a week and instead plans to offer three printed issues a week starting in the fall.

The change means New Orleans would become the largest metro area in the nation without a daily newspaper in the digital age.

The changes announced Thursday were combined with similar moves at three major Alabama daily newspapers also owned by the Newhouse family group’s Advance Publications. The Birmingham News, the Press-Register in Mobile and The Huntsville Times will switch to publishing three days a week as part of a new focus on online news. At all four papers, there will be unspecified staff cuts. All four papers will continue to publish continuously on their websites, and online access will remain free.

Newspapers have struggled in recent years as consumers increasingly get their news online.

Print advertising declined as the economy went into recession, and newspapers have yet to learn how to make online advertising as profitable as its printed counterpart.

“For us, this isn’t about

print versus digital, this is about creating a very successful multi-platform media company that addresses the ever-changing needs of our readers, our online users and our advertisers,” said Advance Publications’ president of local digital strategy, Randy Siegel, in an interview with The Associated Press. “This change is not easy, but it’s essential for us to remain relevant.”

Siegel didn’t say how much money the reduced print runs in Louisiana and Alabama would save, nor how many staff members would be laid off or hired in the new online units.

“To get good quality information is not cheap,” said Jennifer Greer, chair of the journalism department at the University of Alabama. “What you are seeing is people trying to figure out a business model that works in a digital age.”

The decision was met with sadness by some residents in New Orleans, where The Times-Picayune won a Pulitzer Prize for its coverage of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Staffers continued reporting despite being forced out of the newspaper’s offices amid widespread flooding and power outages.

The storm drove away thousands of residents, some of whom never came back. The city — and its newspaper — struggled to recover in the years since.

Brotherhood claims lead as vote count begins

By Hamza Hendawi and Maggie Michael Associated Press

CAIRO — The Muslim Brotherhood said Thursday that its candidate was leading in exit polls from Egypt’s landmark presidential election, as official counting began after two days of voting to choose a successor to ousted leader Hosni Mubarak.

In stations around the country, workers cracked open ballot boxes and started the count after polls closed Thursday night, in Egypt’s first truly competitive presidential election. There are five prominent candidates in a field of 13, but none is expected to win outright in the first round. A run-off between the two leading contenders would be held June 16-17.

A Brotherhood spokesman said the group’s candidate, Mohammed Morsi, was the leader in exit polls conducted by Brotherhood campaign workers nationwide. Morsi’s spokesman, Murad Mohammed Ali, declined to give specific percentages.

MOHAMMED MORSI, the Muslim Brotherhood’s presidential candidate, attends a rally Sunday in Cairo, Egypt. The Brotherhood claimed that Morsi was the leader in exit polls after Thursday’s presidential election. The election is the first since last year’s ouster of longtime authoritarian ruler Hosni Mubarak.

“The Egyptian people always amaze us,” said Ali. “This is above our expectations.”

The reliability of the Brotherhood’s polls could not be confirmed. Regional television channels, citing their own exit polls, also placed Morsi as the top finisher, with rivals Ahmed Shafiq and Hamdeen Sabahi vying for sec-

ond post.

Shafiq, a former air force commander, was Mubarak’s last prime minister and was himself forced from his post by protests soon after his former boss. Opponents brand him as a “feloul” or “remnant” of the old, autocratic regime, but he has drawn support from Egyptians who crave stability

or fear Islamists.

Sabahi is a leftist who had been a dark horse but gained steadily in opinion polls over the past week, attracting Egyptians who want neither an Islamist nor a former regime figure.

The Brotherhood is hoping that a victory in the presidential race will seal its political rise since its longtime opponent Mubarak was ousted on Feb. 11, 2011 in a wave of protests. The group won just under half the seats in parliament in elections held late last year, establishing it as the biggest political bloc.

But it had troubles in the presidential campaign. Its first choice for candidate, deputy leader Khairat elShater, was disqualified because of a Mubarak-era conviction. Morsi was the Brotherhood’s secondchoice and was seen as less charismatic.

He also faced competition for religious voters from Abdel-Moneim Abolfotoh, a moderate Islamist who split from the Brotherhood last year and has also drawn liberals with his more inclusive vision.

Senate committee cuts aid to Pakistan over conviction Doctor helped U.S. locate bin Laden

By Donna Cassata Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A Senate panel expressed its outrage Thursday over Pakistan’s conviction of a doctor who helped the United States track down Osama bin Laden, voting to cut aid to Islamabad by $33 million — $1 million for every year of the physician’s 33-year sentence for high treason.

The punitive move came on top of deep reductions the Appropriations Committee already had made to President Barack Obama’s budget request for Pakistan, a reflection of the growing congressional anger over its cooperation in combatting terrorism.

The overall foreign aid budget for next year had slashed more than half of the proposed assistance and threatened further reductions if Islamabad failed to open overland supply routes to U.S.-led NATO forces in Afghanistan.

Pushing aside any diplomatic talk, Republicans and Democrats criticized Pakistan a day after the conviction in Pakistan of

Shakil Afridi. The doctor ran a vaccination program for the CIA to collect DNA and verify bin Laden’s presence at the compound in Abbottabad where U.S. commandos found and killed the al-Qaida leader in May 2011.

“We need Pakistan, Pakistan needs us, but we don’t need Pakistan double-dealing and not seeing the justice in bringing Osama bin Laden to an end,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who pushed for the additional cut in aid.

He called Pakistan “a schizophrenic ally,” helping the United States at one turn, but then aiding the Haqqani network which has claimed responsibility for several attacks on Americans. The group also has ties to al-Qaida and the Taliban.

“It’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’ at best,” said Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. “If this is cooperation, I’d hate like hell to see opposition.”

One of the most forceful statements came from Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., who also serves as the chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. She pointed out that Pakistan has suffered at the hands of terrorists yet misconstrued what is treason in convicting Afridi. She also insisted that Afridi was not a spy.

“This conviction says to me that al-Qaida is viewed by the court to be Pakistan,” said Feinstein, who said it made her rethink U.S. assistance.

The Appropriations Committee approved Graham’s amendment to cut the assistance by $33 million on a 30-0 vote. The full Senate will vote on the overall bill, possibly this summer.

At the State Department, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said the United States believes Afridi should be released.

“His help was instrumental in taking down one of the world’s most notorious murderers that was clearly in Pakistan’s interest as well as ours and the rest of the world,” Clinton told reporters, adding that the United States will continue to press the issue with Islamabad.

In crafting the overall legislation, the committee reduced Obama’s request to aid Pakistan by 58 percent as resentment and doubts linger on Capitol Hill a year after bin Laden was killed deep inside Pakistan. Tensions between Washington and Islamabad have increased as Pakistan closed overland supply routes to Afghanistan after a U.S. attack on the Pakistani side of the border killed 24 Pakistani soldiers in November.

WASHINGTON — As one diplomatic effort after another fails to end more than a year of brutal violence in Syria, the Obama administration is preparing a plan that would essentially give U.S. nods of approval to arms transfers from Arab nations to some Syrian opposition fighters.

The effort, U.S. officials told The Associated Press, would vet members of the Free Syrian Army and other groups to determine whether they are suitable recipients of munitions to fight the Assad government and to ensure that weapons don’t wind up in the hands of al-Qaidalinked terrorists or other extremist groups such as Hezbollah that could target Israel.

The plan, which has not yet been finalized, reflects U.S. frustration that none of the previous efforts — including diplomatic rhetoric from the United Nations and the multinational Friends of Syria group, and special envoy Kofi Annan’s plan for a cease-fire — has even begun to nudge President Bashar al-Assad from power. The vetting would be the first tiny step the U.S. has made toward ensuring that the Syrian opposition uses the weapons to fight Assad and not to turn it into a full sectarian conflict.

While some intelligence analysts worry that there may be no suitable recipients of lethal aid in the Syria conflict, the vetting plan has arisen as the least objectionable idea in a complicated situation.

U.S. officials, most of whom spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the subject, stressed that the United States, which is already providing nonlethal aid to Syria’s political opposition, is not supplying military assistance to Assad’s foes.

The administration’s position remains that adding more weapons to the conflict is a bad idea and will only fan the fire of instability.

“We don’t think that adding fuel to this fire is the right way to go,” State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said.

“Our decision is to support the civilian opposition in nonlethal ways,” she said.

Funding irony The goal of making sure state university students are academically prepared is a good one, but the Kansas Legislature’s approach includes some ironic micromanagement.

T

here’s a certain amount of irony in new requirements approved by the Kansas Legislature in an effort to improve student retention and graduation rates at state universities.

The bill forwarded to the governor lowers from 10 percent to 5 percent the portion of students who can be admitted to the state’s three largest universities through the “exception window” for students who don’t meet normal admissions requirements. The bill also requires universities to put together individual plans for those students to help ensure they will succeed academically. The irony comes in with the bill’s provision that prohibits state funds from being used to provide any remedial courses for those students or any other students at the state’s six universities. Legislators want universities to give students the help they need, but they don’t want the state to pay for it.

After some negotiation, legislators did make important exceptions to the funding rule. For instance, state funding for remedial classes would be allowed for students in the military, those who are 21 or older and international students who need help with English.

Although it’s easy to understand legislators’ frustration with the fact that some university freshmen still need a remedial math or English class, eliminating funding for those classes limits universities’ options as they seek to make students successful. Unless the universities want, and are able, to find alternative funding for remedial classes, they could be forced to simply reject otherwise-qualified students. It’s just a bit of legislative micromanagement that may make it more difficult for universities to achieve the student-success goal.

Nonetheless, the overall goal of the legislation is mostly positive. House Speaker Mike O’Neal said he sponsored the original bill because he believed students who need remedial course work would be better served by attending a community college rather than risking failure at a state university. That philosophy, as well as the bill’s provision for individual student-success plans, fits well with Kansas University’s proposed new admissions policy, which would raise the standards for automatic admission and connect many students with support services.

The legislation also has the subtle effect of placing more pressure on Kansas high schools to make sure their graduates who want to attend college are academically prepared to do so. High schools should play an active role in directing students to the right institution — university, community college, vocational school — that best suits their talents and their academic goals.

One additional irony in the Legislature’s action is the desire of lawmakers to assert specific control over universities at the same time that the percentage of university budgets covered by state funding has dropped so dramatically.

Considering that, in the current fiscal year, only about 22 percent of KU’s budget is covered by state funds, the fact that none of those funds can be used for remedial classes may not be as significant as it once would have been.

Syria feeds instability in Mideast WASHINGTON — The Middle East sometimes resembles a string of detonators wired to explode together — and this seems especially true now of Syria and its neighbors.

There is political instability nearby in Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon, as the Arab uprising moves through its second year. In each of these countries, the leadership maintains power in a balancing act. Only Turkey, with its triad of a strong economy, army and political leadership, seems genuinely stable.

Fear of blowing up the region — and spawning even more Sunni-Shiite sectarian war — is one reason the Obama administration has refused to arm the Syrian opposition. Officials fear that militarizing the conflict, without reliable Syrian allies or a clear endgame strategy, could produce unintended consequences much like those of the Iraq War. Administration officials expect Kofi Annan’s peace plan will fail, but they don’t want to give up on the former U.N. secretary-general’s effort yet. Better to let the planned 300 U.N. observers travel in Syria, they reason, and perhaps encourage a new round of protest that would show that President Bashar al-Assad’s rule is doomed.

What makes this period of Arab revolution so complicated is that the new themes

“

Fear of blowing up the region — and spawning even more Sunni-Shiite sectarian war — is one reason the Obama administration has refused to arm the Syrian opposition.” of liberation, culminating in this week’s Egyptian presidential election, are becoming interwoven with ancient ethnic hatreds. Analysts from Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon describe the growing tensions in each country, as these factors play out:

Iraq’s prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, faces a possible breakup of his ruling coalition. The potential opposition has widened to include Moqtada al-Sadr, the Shiite militia leader, and Massoud Barzani, the Kurdish chieftain.

Late last month, they threatened to dump Maliki unless he implemented a November 2010 power-sharing pact.

Sadr, the fiery cleric, was

unusually blunt: “This state is under a form of dictatorship and we do not want it to remain under Premier Maliki.”

When Barzani visited Washington last month, he is said to have warned administration officials, “I can’t live with another dictator in Baghdad.”

Yet Maliki is still in power, thanks partly to the bizarre fact that he enjoys support from both Washington and Tehran. Symbolically, perhaps, U.S. and Iranian negotiators agreed on Baghdad as the site for nuclear negotiations taking place this week.

The old expression “once bitten, twice shy” may explain the Obama administration’s view of Iraq. The White House favors compromise with Maliki and the preservation of stability there, in part because it doesn’t want to reignite civil war in Iraq at the same time it is spreading in Syria.

Jordan’s King Abdullah’s reign has been one long balancing act, between Palestinians and East Bankers, between secular modernizers and Islamist conservatives.

He has been lucky that all sides support the Hashemite monarchy, even as they quarrel over how to divide the spoils. But lately, the political jockeying has grown more intense.

The king has burned through four prime ministers in 15 months, without getting agreement on an election

law and other reforms. Corruption scandals have taken down three intelligence chiefs in a row, to the point that many Jordanians wonder whether the deeper problem is in the palace itself. There is growing talk about Jordan as a staging ground for Syrian insurgents — which might please Saudi Arabia and other Sunni powers that want to overthrow Assad, but would add new risks for the king.

Lebanon may be in the most delicate position of all.

Under Prime Minister Najib Mikati, Lebanon’s policy is “disassociation” from the Syria battle. But that middle ground is disappearing — with anti-Assad refugees using northeastern Lebanon as a sanctuary, triggering reprisals from pro-Assad forces.

Mikati wants Washington’s help in keeping Lebanon from being drawn deeper into the regional turmoil, but the longer the Syria fight goes on, the harder it will be for any of the neighbors to stay out.

One wild card that could trump everything else is tribal politics. Two big Sunni tribes, the Shammar and the Dulaim, stretch from northern Saudi Arabia through western Iraq and Jordan and up into Syria.

Some observers say these tribes have sworn a blood oath against Assad. If so, a decisive phase of the Syrian war may have begun.

God, marriage

Media miss point on religion Evidence of big media’s bias against religion that doesn’t advance the secular and liberal agenda of the Democratic Party is beyond dispute. Any faith attached to a conservative agenda is to be ridiculed, stereotyped and misrepresented. Islam is a notable exception. The media appear to bend over backward not to offend Muslims.

The Washington Post on Monday, reporting from Carrollton, Ark., uncovered an event that occurred nearly 155 years ago and then sought to link it to the presidential candidacy of Mitt Romney: “On Sept. 11, 1857, a wagon train from this part of Arkansas met with a gruesome fate in Utah, where most of the travelers were slaughtered by a Mormon militia in an episode known as the Mountain Meadows Massacre.”

The Romney connection?

“There aren’t many places in America more likely to be suspicious of Mormonism — and potentially problematic for Mitt Romney, who is seeking to become the country’s first Mormon president.”

As Carrollton, Ark., goes, so goes the nation? Would the Post question the legitimacy and faith of a Muslim candidate for Congress, or any office, because of 9-11? Do you even have to ask? Should the Spanish Inquisition reflect on a Catholic candidate?

Since Jimmy Carter announced during the 1976 presidential campaign that he was a born-again Christian, the media have been fascinated by religion, but not so much that they

would labor to understand it.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is a devout Mormon, but Reid gets a media pass on his faith because he toes the line on the secular left’s agenda, from abortion to same-sex marriage, which Reid endorsed last week.

That his church teaches the opposite of the way he votes doesn’t appear to concern him.

Senator Orrin Hatch, also a Mormon, is running for re-election in Utah. Hatch is less scary to the media because he made friends with the late Senator Ted Kennedy with whom he occasionally cooperated on legislation.

Former New York Governor Mario Cuomo, a devout Catholic, opposes the death penalty, as does the Roman Catholic Church. The Catholic Church also opposes the “death penalty” for the unborn, but Cuomo challenged the Church’s position on abortion in his speech at Notre Dame in 1984 titled “Religious Belief and Public Moral-

ity: A Catholic Governor’s Perspective.” Why did no reporter press Cuomo on his “cafeteria theology”? Answer: Because his positions on the death penalty and abortion reflect the views of most in big media.

The questions reporters should be asking Mitt Romney are not about his style of worship or about Mormon theology, but rather which of his church’s beliefs he thinks are connected to earthly policies and which ones, if any, he will attempt to implement should he become president.

On her Washington Post blog, Jennifer Rubin says the media has a “Mormon Obsession”: “In sum, the left’s obsession with Romney’s faith tells us more about their ignorance of faithful people of all religions than anything else. ... Whether born of ignorance (i.e. that other faiths don’t share these essential values) or rank bias or intention to paint Romney as weird, the definition of Romney as nothing more than a Mormon stick figure is pernicious in our political culture and begs the question: Why is the media entirely uninterested in Obama’s religious influences, and indeed has dubbed such discussion racist?”

Journalists and media organizations should be required to take advanced religion courses so that they can better understand faith, explain it accurately and ask the right questions of candidates who believe in an Authority higher than the state.

— Cal Thomas is a columnist for Tribune Media Services.

To the editor: This is in response to Dennis Dailey’s letter of May 18.

Those who oppose homosexual marriages in 31 states do so because they believe marriage should be between a man and a woman. It’s not because they hate gays.

Dailey is right about the 50 percent divorce rate, even among Christians and despite the fact that God hates divorce. Godly counseling can help, but the real problem is that Christian couples don’t recognize that their real enemy is not their mate but the devil. Many people do not believe in a literal devil, or Satan. That is exactly what he wants people to believe. However, Jesus knows that the devil is real, and he knew that we would have to deal with his attempts to destroy marriage. We are given the means to be victorious in life despite Satan’s temptations, but either we are ignorant of his ways and/or the means God has provided to defeat him through spiritual warfare with the “full armor of God.” If any of us are ignorant about God’s ways, then we can choose to accept His truth and can begin living an abundant life by faith in Jesus Christ.

My wife and I will be married 55 years in June and we tell people, “Jesus is our Superglue.” If it wasn’t for Him and God’s truth found in the Bible, we would probably be a part of that 50 percent of marriages that end in divorce. Greater is He (God) who is in us than he (Satan) that is in the world.

Lions baseball at state: Best still to come

CLASS 6A STATE TRACK AND FIELD Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Luck leading WVU onward A third-century ago, West Virginia University’s football program was at a crossroads, the quarterback at the time now says, and the contrast between two choices was a stark one.

Oliver Luck, a threeyear starter and two-time Academic All-American at West Virginia who went on to play five seasons in the NFL for the Houston Oilers before returning to WVU as athletic director, looked back on his college days.

“We were playing in a stadium that was built when people got around by horse and buggy, about the time of the advent of the steam shovel,” Luck said, exaggerating to make a point. “We could stay in that stadium and remain with Furman and VMI or take a bigger step and try to compete with schools like Penn State, Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh and Ohio State.”

If not for West Virginia’s pushy president at the time, the Mountaineers to this day might be grouped with Furman and VMI, instead of Texas and Oklahoma.

The pushy president at the time now can claim a Luck second Big 12 school. Before becoming Kansas University’s chancellor, Gene Budig had been West Virginia’s Budig president.

“Gene was the driving force behind getting the new stadium built, and that was the platform (for the growth of West Virginia football),” Luck said in a recent telephone interview.

Budig’s legacy as American League president can be found in cities across the country in the form of retro baseball stadiums — a project he and National League prez Leonard Coleman relentlessly pursued. Seeing what a new stadium, opened in 1980, Luck’s junior season, did for West Virginia might have been a factor in motivating Budig to push, push, push the ball forward on new baseball stadiums.

When Big 12 defections occurred, Budig decided not to watch from a distance. He dialed up then-acting commissioner Chuck Neinas and with KU chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and others in the conference to lobby for what he considered the perfect addition to the conference.

“West Virginia brings one of the biggest football and basketball national TV audiences to the Big 12,” Budig said. “They long have been one of the premier institutions in attracting viewers.

This opens a new and very large audience for the Big 12.”

Luck confirmed that a search committee firm, which was contracted by the Big 12 when it sought a permanent commissioner, contacted him to test his interest.

FREE STATE THROWER BRIE MINGUS, RIGHT, who will be competing in the shot put and discus at this weekend’s Class 6A state track meet, visits with teammate Courtney Huffman, who will be running the 4x400, before practice Wednesday at FSHS.

Three years ago, Roy Mingus handed his ninth-grade daughter, Brie, a shot put for the first time.

“Show me how you throw this thing,” he told her.

Brie, now a senior at Free State High School, still remembers her first time tossing it.

“It was about 30 feet, and he was like, ‘OK, we can work with this,’” Brie said with a smile.

Page 3B That impressive throw was just the start of a successful high school career for Mingus, who will be competing in the shot put in her third straight state meet today at the Kansas State High School Championships at Cessna Stadium in Wichita.

Her best throw at regionals — 35 feet, 7 1/2 inches — is the eighth-best mark in Class 6A heading into the meet.

What’s different this year for Brie is that she has shown rapid improvement in another event: discus.

After entering last week’s regionals with a personal record of 113 feet, Mingus unleashed a throw of 125 feet to take third. Not only that, almost all of her throws last Please see MINGUS, page 3B

Progress part of the thrill for LHS thrower

By Jesse Newell jnewell@ljworld.com

When Manny Romero showed up to the first day of Lawrence High track practice last year, coach Jack Hood had no idea who he was.

Romero, who had played baseball his whole life, told the coaches that he planned on being a runner and a jumper.

“It didn’t really fit me at all,” Romero said.

His next decision ended up being a good one.

Then a junior, Romero transitioned to javelin to see if his baseball skills (he’d played pitcher and third base) might translate to a throwing event.

A year later, Romero is seeded third in the Class 6A javelin heading into today’s state championships at Cessna Stadium in Wichita.

“In baseball, it just felt like it wasn’t really going anywhere,”

Romero said “In javelin, I kept improving every day.”

Romero’s first throw his junior year was just 85 feet.

Still, LHS javelin coach Don Durkin continued to tell Hood that there might be something there, as Romero had a strong throwing arm.

“He was OK last year, but not in the hunt to go to state,” Hood said. “If you’d have told me he was going to go to state this year, I’d have told you that you were crazy at the start of the year.”

Romero proceeded to set personal records in more than half of his meets this year.

That included last week at regionals, when Romero launched a throw of 174 feet, 10 inches, finishing third with a toss that was more than dou- LAWRENCE HIGH THROWER MANNY ble the length of his first throw ROMERO COMPETES in the javelin at the Class 6A regional track a year earlier. meet on May 18 at Free State Please see ROMERO, page 3B High.

You can’t make it to state without confidence.

Six other teams have a better seed than Lawrence High baseball for the Class 6A tournament, but as the No. 7 seed hometown Lions see it, they are as capable as anyone else of winning three games and a championship this weekend at Kansas University’s Hoglund Ballpark.

“Inside the confines of our group,” LHS coach Brad Stoll said, “we feel like we’re the favorite to win the whole thing.”

That might be news to WEEKEND the No. 1 seed WARRIORS Maize Eagles (21-1), the defending 6A What: No. champs who 7 Lawrence are making High (14-8) their fifth vs. No. 2 straight state Blue Valley appearance West (20-2) and have When: 4 p.m. lost once in today their last 47 Where: Kangames. sas UniversiNo. 2 seed ty’s Hoglund Blue Valley Ballpark West (20-2) likely considers itself a heavy favorite, too, as it prepares to take on Lawrence (14-8) in the first round at 4 p.m. this afternoon. The Jaguars beat LHS, 3-2, in the 2011 state semifinals, and BVW ace righthanded pitcher Collin Wiles, now a senior, didn’t even throw in that game.

The Lions expect to see Wiles this time around, and will counter with their own ace, left-handed senior Garrett Cleavinger (2.04 ERA, 75 strikeouts, 48 innings pitched).

Senior center fielder CJ Roush said it will be up to the Lions’ hitters to support their starting pitcher.

“It’s definitely gonna be a pitcher’s duel,” Roush said, “and I think the team that comes out and puts pressure on the other guy is probably gonna be the victor.”

Between himself, Shane and Troy Willoughby, Drew Green, Jake Vinoverski, Matt Sutliffe, CJ Stuever, Cleavinger, Trevor Champagne and Kieran Severa, Roush (.441 batting average, 14 RBI) said everyone has contributed offensively to a win at one point or another this season.

Junior third baseman and leadoff hitter Shane Willoughby (.388, 20 runs scored) said the Lions are confident they can challenge Wiles.

“Even if it’s a good arm,” he said, “we should still be able to score runs.”

KU downs Texas, will face A&M in rematch today “

We’ve played well defensively, that’s been the strength of our club.”

— Kansas University baseball coach Ritch Price on the key to Thursday’s victory

J-W Staff and Wire Reports

OKLAHOMA CITY — A three-run first inning and strong pitching lifted Kansas University to a 4-2 win over Texas and eliminated the third-seeded Longhorns from the Big 12 Baseball Championship on Thursday at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark.

The victory was KU’s first in postseason play since winning the tournament in 2006.

Kansas’ Wes Benjamin (57) gave up one run on five

hits over six innings to get the win, while Robert Kahana allowed one run during the final three innings to earn the save for the seventh-seeded Jayhawks (2333).

“One thing we’ve done well all year is pitch well,” KU coach Ritch Price said.

“We’ve pitched well not only in the starting position, but we’ve pitched well at the back end of the ballgames. We’ve played well defensively, that’s been the strength of our club.”

John Curtiss (2-3) gave up

all four Kansas runs over 6 2/3 innings to take the loss for Texas (30-22).

KU senior Chris Manship went 2-for-3 from the plate with a double, a triple and a RBI to lead the Kansas offense. Fellow Jayhawk James Stanfield also chipped in two hits in four at-bats and had one RBI. Texas scored just one run in the first eight innings before Kahana allowed the final run in the ninth.

The Jayhawks will meet sixth-ranked Texas A&M for the second time in the 2012

conference tournament in an elimination game today at 7 p.m. The Aggies defeated the Jayhawks, 10-4 in the first round on Wednesday, before losing to Missouri, 5-3 on Thursday night.

If Kansas wins tonight, it will face Missouri in a tournament semi-final on Saturday. The Jayhawks would need to beat the Tigers twice to advance to Sunday’s Big 12 Championship game.

NBA PLAYOFFS

Heat send Pacers packing INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — There was nothing soft about Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat.

Wade scored 41 points, LeBron James chipped in 28 and the Heat finished off the Indiana Pacers, locking up a return trip to the Eastern Conference finals with a 105-93 victory in Game 6 on Thursday night.

The Heat wrapped up the best-of-7 series and will face either Boston or Philadelphia in the next round starting in Miami on Monday. Of course, nothing less than an NBA title will make for a satisfying summer in South Beach.

Two series down, two to go.

The Heat rallied from an early 11-point deficit, riding the hot hand of Wade in the opening half. He scored 26 points by the break, tying Tim Hardaway’s 16-year-old franchise record for most playoff points in the first two quarters. James hit consecutive baskets with just over a minute remaining to close it out.

Next up, the Celtics or surprising 76ers. The Heat will get a much-needed chance to relax before worrying about the next opponent, which will be determined in Game 7 at Boston on Saturday.

David West led Indiana with 24 points and all five starters were in double figures. But that balance was overwhelmed by Wade and James.

In a game of spurts, the decisive one came in the closing minutes of the third quarter, the Heat pushing out to their third straight impressive win after falling behind 2-1 in the series.

The Pacers tied it at 66 on Darren Collison’s three-pointer, but it was all Heat the rest of the period. They closed on a 13-3 run, capped by Mario Chalmers’ buzzer-beating three from the corner. Wade, who was on the bench getting his customary breather at the end of the quar-

MIAMI’S DWYANE WADE ATTEMPTS TO SLIP a shot past Indiana’s Roy Hibbert. Wade scored 41 points, and the Heat defeated the Pacers, 105-93, on Thursday night in Indianapolis. ter, leaped from his seat as the ball left Chalmers’ hand at the far end, raced along the baseline and pumped his fist when it swished.

As Chalmers raced toward the Miami bench, Wade greeted him near the free throw line with a low-five.

For the most part, D-Wade did his best work while in the game.

He dropped 11-of-16 shooting on the Pacers in the first half, but also made sure the MVP

stayed involved, dishing off a behind-the-back pass to James for a thunderous jam.

Indiana clamped down a bit on No. 3 the rest of the way, but he still managed perhaps his most jaw-dropping basket.

Darting into the lane, he threw up a wild-looking, one-handed shot that looked like it might go over the backboard, only to catch the top of the glass and drop through, barely touching the twine.

There was none of the nasti-

ness that marked Game 5, when a bunch of flagrant fouls resulted in suspensions for two Miami players, co-captain Udonis Haslem and backup center Dexter Pittman. Pacers president Larry Bird was so disgusted with his team’s performance that he accused them of going “soft.�

That wasn’t the problem this time. This was merely a Miami team on a mission, a mission that began in the summer of 2010 when the Heat signed James and Chris Bosh to join Wade in a seemingly unbeatable Big Three.

James tops voting for all-NBA; Bryant earns 10th selection NEW YORK — LeBron James was the leading vote-getter for the all-NBA team, while Kobe Bryant earned his 10th firstteam selection, tied for second on the career list.

Bryant, a first-team pick for the seventh straight season, joined Kareem AbdulJabbar, Elgin Baylor, Bob Cousy, Michael Jordan, Bob Pettit and Jerry West with 10 selections to the first team. Karl Malone is the leader with 11.

James, who won his third MVP award, received 118 of a possible 120 first-team votes Thursday from a panel of writers and broadcasters. Joining him on the first team were scoring champion Kevin Durant, Clippers point guard Chris Paul and Magic center Dwight Howard.

Guards Tony Parker and Russell Westbrook were selected the second team along with forwards Kevin Love and Blake Griffin and center Andrew Bynum.

GOLF

Johnson leads at Colonial FORT WORTH, TEXAS — Zach Johnson shot a bogey-free 6-under 64 on Thursday to take a one-stroke lead after the first round of the Colonial.

Johnson opened his round with a 40-foot birdie putt on his first hole, No. 10. After blasting from a greenside bunker at No. 12 to save par, he had four birdies in a row on a day when gusty wind whipped through the big oaks lining the fairways at Hogan’s Alley.

Even though he has made the cut in all 12 tournaments he has played this season,

Johnson hasn’t won since the Colonial two years ago.

Jason Dufner, the Byron Nelson Championship winner Sunday, was a stroke back along with PGA Tour rookie Harris English, Tom Gillis and Kyle Reifers.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland was six strokes back after firing an even-par 70.

The NFL Players Association claimed in U.S. District Court in Minnesota on Wednesday that the 32 teams had a secret salary cap in place during the uncapped 2010 season, and that it cost players at least $1 billion in wages. On Thursday, outside of union headquarters, Smith repeated those charges.

KANSAS BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK

ESPN ranks 2013 recruits

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Future Kansas University basketball players Brannen Greene and Conner Frankamp are listed Nos. 33 and 72 respectively in ESPN.com’s new top 100 rankings of the high school recruiting class of 2013.

Greene, a 6-7 wing formerly of Mary Persons High in Forsyth, Ga., who is headed to Tift County High in Tifton, Ga., for his senior year, is ranked No. 31 by Rivals.com.

Frankamp, a 6-0 point guard out of Wichita North, is No. 42 by Rivals.com. Both have orally committed to play at KU. Other top 100 players with KU currently on their lists: No. 1: Jabari Parker, 6-8, Chicago Simeon. No. 2: Julius Randle, 6-9, Prestonwood Christian Academy, Plano, Texas.

BRIEFLY KU track athletes qualify for NCAAs AUSTIN, TEXAS — Four Kansas University track athletes qualified for nationals on Thursday at the NCAA West prelims.

“If she throws that really well,” Heffernan said, “she’s going to be a high medalist.”

Mingus has improved in the event with the help of her father, who was a thrower in both high school and college.

Roy often videotapes Brie’s practices so the two can later go back and break down her technique.

“Second is a bigger trophy than third. Size-wise, they’re literally bigger.

And first is a really big trophy,” Heffernan said.

“So that’s going to be our goal. That’s what we’ve talked about.”

Heffernan also has high hopes for the Free State boys, who finished fourth at last week’s regionals.

“The boys could be a team that sneaks up very easily and ends up in the top five or even higher,” Heffernan said. “We’ve got some good individuals with Kain (Anderson) and DayShawn (Berndt), and both of them are capable of being in the top three in all of their events. And if those 3s turn into 2s and 1s, we’re talking about also earning a trophy on the guys’ side.”

“There’s some big ol’ dudes out there,” Romero said. “I’m pretty small compared to everybody else.”

Romero’s goal is to set another PR during today’s 1:15 p.m. javelin finals.

He also has the potential to contribute team points for the LHS boys, who finished second at last week’s regionals.

“We qualified a bunch of boys in a bunch of events. We’ll see,” Hood said. “We could finish anywhere from dead last to top four or five, you

hope. It just depends on how we show up.”

Hood has been pleased with the progress of this year’s squad.

“I know coaches say that all the time, but we were a bad track team our first few meets,” Hood said. “We didn’t have much of anything. We had a good shot putter (Blake Hocking). We had a good triple jumper (Steven Hill). And we had a sprinter that told me he wanted to be a good sprinter (Gari Jones). And he worked all year, and it turned out he was a really good sprinter.

“But every week, somebody kept showing up.”

The LHS girls finished fifth at last week’s regionals, and Hood said while this year’s squad doesn’t have much experience, it does has the most talent of any Lions team in the last five years.

LHS also appears to be peaking at the right time, as boys and girls combined for 44 PRs at regionals last week.

“You ask the kids to do their best when it matters most. That group did,” Hood said. “We just kept building and building.

“We started a bad track team. We’ll see where we finish.”

MARION, IND. — Baker University’s Stephanie Nelson became the school’s first individual national track and field champion in nearly 60 years, winning the javelin on Thursday at the NAIA Championships at Indiana Wesleyan.

Upgrading Olympic sports is on his to-do list, and he has no illusions about the Big 12 being anything but a big step up in competition from the Big East in football.

Mingus, who accepted a scholarship to join the Kansas University rowing team next year, said her objective this weekend was to post another PR in the discus. The school record is three feet farther than her best (128 feet), while the best mark in 6A this year is 134 feet, 7 inches.

The senior is part of a Free State girls track team that should be in the running for a 6A state title after winning last week’s eight-team regional by 31 points.

After the FSHS girls took third at state last year, Heffernan said this year’s goal was to bring home a bigger plaque.

Kansas University softball left fielder Maggie Hull was named to the 2012 Capital One Academic All-America Division I third team, KU announced on Thursday.

Hull finished the year with a 3.78 cumulative GPA.

Friday ended up breaking her previous PR. The senior went from struggling to place in meets earlier in the year to having the fourth-best discus throw in 6A heading into the state meet.

“The main thing about throwing is that you just don’t think about it; you just go with it,” Mingus said. “It’s really a mental thing. I just went with it, and it flew.”

Free State coach Steve Heffernan said that he always believed that Mingus’ ceiling was higher with discus, even when she lacked consistency in the event.

KU Athletics board talks Big 12 growth “

topics of discussion across the country, and both came up Thursday at the regularly scheduled Kansas Athletics, Inc., Board of Directors meeting.

However, while wild speculation about the Big 12 adding new members makes for exciting conversation, the conference is not the only thing that may be growing.

According to the financial report presented by senior associate athletics director Sean Lester at Thursday’s meeting, the cost of team travel is expected to increase by half a million dollars during the coming school year.

“There are several areas that the team travel budget is up,” said chief financial officer Pat Kaufman, who replaced the retired Susan Wachter and began working at KU on April 2. “The primary reason is the cost of fuel. That will impact both air and bus transportation.”

Kaufman was at Thursday’s meeting to help clarify the report he spent countless hours working First-round games Friday at Hoglund Ballpark on during the past couple 11 a.m. — No. 1 Maize (21-1) of months. He also revs. No. 8 Blue Valley North (14-8) 1:30 p.m. — No. 4 Manhattan ceived high praise from (18-4) vs. No. 5 HaysvilleLester.

— Kansas University chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little Zenger, during his AD’s comments, praised the men’s and women’s basketball teams for outstanding seasons and also tipped his cap to the baseball, softball and track and field teams for their continued progress. During his mention of the baseball program, Lester provided a live update of KU’s victory against Texas during the second day of the Big 12 tournament in Oklahoma City.

Zenger also praised KU football coach Charlie Weis for his ability to connect with alumni and fans during a recent nineday tour of Kansas which wrapped up Wednesday night in Kansas City.

“I can assure you,” Zenger said. “From Dodge City to Kansas City, the Jayhawk faithful are alive and well.”

So, too, is the Big 12 Conference, which GrayLittle seemed overjoyed to point out.

“The conference situation seems to be going well,” she said of the continued growth and stability of the league. “I think we have a really good relationship between our old members and the new members (TCU and West Virginia) and we’re hopeful that it will continue to go smoothly. We’re at the beginning of a very good time for the conference.”

After mowing through the first few agenda items in less than 20 minutes, the board went into executive session for 56 minutes and emerged with a motion to allow Zenger to sign off on the designing and planning of athletic facilities. The motion passed. At one point, Brad Nachtigal, associate AD for capital projects, left the executive session briefly and returned with an oversized sheet of paper folded in half. It was not known whether Thursday’s executive session discussion related to the Olympic Village proposal of the past or more recent talk about a new facility in northwest Lawrence.

AMERICAN LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Indians sweep Tigers White Sox 11, Twins 8 CHICAGO — Paul Konerko and Alex Rios hit back-to-back homers and Alejandro De Aza added a grand slam to cap a six-run sixth, leading Chicago past Minnesota.

A.J. Pierzynski and Dayan Viciedo also went deep as the White Sox won for the sixth time in seven games.

The Associated Press

Indians 2, Tigers 1 CLEVELAND — Justin Masterson matched Justin Verlander pitch for pitch for first his career win over Detroit, and firstplace Cleveland did just enough to beat the reigning AL MVP on Thursday and complete a threegame sweep of the underperforming Tigers.

Shin-Soo Choo homered on the third pitch from Verlander (5-2) as the Indians won for the eighth time in 10 games and opened a six-game lead over third-place Detroit in the AL Central.

Detroit has dropped six of eight, and manager Jim Leyland was ejected in the fifth inning.

Masterson (2-3) entered 0-4 in seven starts against the Tigers. He allowed one run and five hits in seven innings.

Chris Perez put the tying run on in the ninth but got his 16th straight save since blowing one on opening day.

The Indians faded down the stretch last season, when injuries — and the Tigers — overwhelmed them. Detroit won the final 10 meetings between the clubs, but Cleveland has won the first three of 18 against their division rivals, giving more legitimacy to another surprising start.

Last season, Verlander owned the Indians. He won all three starts against Cleveland, and came in 9-1 against them in his previous 12 starts. The righthander gave up two runs, six hits, walked one threw a 102 mph fastball on his 116th pitch as if to remind the Indians that they’ll see him again.

Perez saved all three games in the series, which began with him defending harsh comments he made about Cleveland’s fans not supporting their team.

CLEVELAND’S JUSTIN MASTERSON DELIVERS against Detroit. Masterson allowed one run in seven innings, and the Indians defeated the Tigers, 2-1, on Thursday in Cleveland.

He gave up a one-out single in the ninth before retiring Andy Dirks on a popup with the dangerous Miguel Cabrera on deck.

Perez punched the air after the final out as the Indians landed the first blow in what is shaping up to be a more interesting division race than many expected.

Detroit stranded 30 runners in the series and went just 3 of 28 with runners in scoring position.

Masterson was on the ropes in the seventh, but danced out of self-inflicted danger.

He walked No. 9 hitter Danny Worth leading off and then compounded his problems by making a throwing error when he fielded Quintin Berry’s bunt but hit him with an underhanded toss to first.

Masterson struck out Dirks, and with the beef of Detroit’s order coming up, manager Manny Acta made his way to the

mound for an apparent pitching change.

Even reliever Joe Smith assumed he was coming in and began running in from the center-field bullpen before realizing Acta was sticking with his starter. Masterson then retired Cabrera on a fly to center before stabbing a hard shot through the middle by Fielder and throwing to first for the final out.

Reds 6, Braves 3 CINCINNATI — Rookie catcher Devin Mesoraco capped a series full of homers with his first career grand slam on Thursday night, leading Cincinnati over Atlanta.

The Reds completed their first four-game sweep of the Braves in Cincinnati since 1980 at Riverfront Stadium.

They’ve won six straight, their longest winning streak since August 2010 when they started their push toward the NL Central title.

The teams combined for 16 homers — 13 solo shots — accounting for 21 of the 24 runs in the series.

Homer Bailey (3-3) gave up four hits in six innings, including Michael Bourn’s two-run homer.

ery room, including her husband’s male friends.

It was weird. My sister, bless her heart, dropped her undies at a friend’s baby shower to show her episiotomy stitches.

I understand that going through the process of having a baby makes you inured to being naked.

But that doesn’t mean others want to see it.

Am I wrong to think that just because you can take a picture of it doesn’t mean you should? — Not a Prude, Just Prudent Dear Prudent: This is a combination of new

TV channels the Internet Will Internet videos replace “television”? Or will television simply become a long list of programs showcasing Internet videos? Sporting a title that says so much about television (and life), “Insane or Inspired” (9 p.m., Syfy) counts down some of the more “out there” clips to be found on YouTube and elsewhere.

A peanut gallery of “experts” and quipsters chime in on short films chosen for their focus on imagination, invention and the extremes of human experience. Look for commentary from actors Amber Benson (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”), Samm Levine (“Freaks and Geeks”) and TV personalities Brooke Hogan, Ralph Garman and Josh Gates, best known as host of Syfy’s “Destination Truth.” Comedians Ben Gleib, Owen Benjamin, Al Jackson, Jodi Miller and Eliot Chang also offer their two cents. ‘‘Insane” kicks off with the theme “25 Wildest Homebrewed Superheroes,” a roundup of backyard Batmen, home-bound Hulks and couch-bound costumed crusaders. Their “talents” range from the delusional to the dangerous, including one determined soul who hopes to kill zombies with a machete-flinging slingshot. That should be dismember-able!

Memorial Day weekend means war movies and lots of them, from classics such as “The Dirty Dozen” (7 p.m., AMC) from 1967 to the 1970 combat feature “Kelly’s Heroes” (7 p.m., Military), starring Clint Eastwood. Look for Carroll O’Connor just before he became famous as TV’s Archie Bunker on “All in the Family.” That same year, “Kelly’s” co-star Donald Sutherland would become a huge star in “M*A*S*H,” the anti-war satire that would inspire the CBS TV comedy. And who can forget “Kelly’s” other star, Telly Savalas, who later played “Kojak”?

Director Quentin Tarantino reimagines World War II (or at least World War II movies) in the 2009 satire “Inglourious Basterds” (7 p.m., TNT).

Tonight’s other highlights

A looming Arctic hurricane can’t keep some crew members from their Twitter feeds on “Deadliest Catch” (7 p.m., Discovery).

Rob Lowe discovers his roots on “Who Do You Think You Are?” (7 p.m., NBC).

A Wichita grandmother regales Steve and Amy with hairraising tales on “The Dead Files” (9 p.m., Travel).

Cult choice Decades before “Glee,” the 1980 musical “Fame” (2:30 a.m., TCM) mixed music, choreography and backstage melodrama.

mommy pride and the current obsession to publicize every private moment — with a little exhibitionism thrown in.

New parents are often so enamored of their amazing experience that they feel compelled to share all the specific details with everyone. We agree that they should save the explicit photos, videos and dropped panties (for heaven’s sake) specifically for those who ask to see them.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Friday, May 25: This year you might feel as if you are on a roller-coaster ride. Just when you believe everything is OK, you discover otherwise. Keep a tight hold on your finances. If you are single, you are likely to meet someone of significance this year. If you are attached, the two of you will learn to work even better together if you are willing to be vulnerable.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Thoughts surround a domestic issue that could be difficult.

Pull back, tap into your ingenuity and detach. Tonight: TGIF. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Be direct with a friend or associate. This person is closed down anyway and probably will respond in the same way. Tonight: First head home, then decide.
